We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on the Common Stock since it commenced public trading in 1997 and we do not
anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but intend to retain any future earnings for reinvestment in our business.
In addition, the terms of our credit facility and the indentures governing our outstanding 81⁄2% senior subordinated notes due 2013
restrict our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of
the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual
restrictions and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.
Information regarding our equity compensation plans is set forth in Item 12 hereof under the caption “Equity Compensation
Plan Information.”
