The exact applicable price and effective date may not be as set forth in the table above, in which case:
  if the actual applicable price is between two applicable prices listed in the table above, or the actual effective date is between two dates listed in the table above, we will determine the number of additional shares by linear interpolation between the numbers of additional shares set forth for the two applicable prices, or for the two dates based on a 365-day year, as applicable;
  if the actual applicable price is greater than $125.00 per share (subject to adjustment), we will not increase the Conversion Rate as described above; and
  if the actual applicable price is less than $48.18 per share (subject to adjustment), we will not increase the Conversion Rate as described above.
However, we will not increase the Conversion Rate as described above to the extent the increase will cause the Conversion Rate to exceed 0.5188. We will adjust this maximum Conversion Rate in the same manner in which, and for the same events for which, we must adjust the Conversion Rate as described under ''Description of the Series E preferred shares “Conversion Rate Adjustments” in the Prospectus Supplement.

CAPITALIZATION
     The following table describes our actual capitalization as of December 31, 2007, and our capitalization on an as adjusted basis to reflect (1) the issuance and sale of the 3,000,000 Series E preferred shares offered by this prospectus supplement (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option) and the application of the net proceeds from this offering as described in “Use of Proceeds” and (2) the issuance and sale of both the 3,000,000 Series E preferred shares offered by this prospectus supplement (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option) and the 2,100,000 common shares pursuant to a separate offering registered under the Securities Act (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option) and the application of the net proceeds from both offerings as described in “Use of Proceeds.” The proceeds we ultimately receive from this offering of Series E preferred shares and the concurrent offering of our common shares are dependent upon numerous factors and subject to general market conditions. We may not consummate the concurrent offering of our common shares or we may not consummate it for the amount or on the terms planned. The completion of this offering of Series E preferred shares is not subject to the completion of the concurrent offering of the common shares and the completion of the concurrent offering of the common shares is not subject to the completion of this offering of Series E preferred shares. Accordingly, the actual amounts shown in the “As Adjusted” columns may differ materially from those shown below.
     This information should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the consolidated financial statements and schedules and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.
