  Item 3.02. Unregistered
  Sales of Equity Securities.
  On April 23, 2008, upon the request of Welsh,
  Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P., which we call "WCAS X," and pursuant
  to the securities purchase agreement dated May 7, 2007 between us, WCAS X
  and other parties, a copy of which was included as Exhibit 10.1 to our
  Current Report on Form 8-K, dated May 11, 2007, we issued to WCAS X
  5,000 shares of our Series B participating convertible preferred stock,
  par value $1.00 per share, in exchange for a like number of shares of our Series A
  participating convertible preferred stock. The shares of Series A preferred
  stock thereby exchanged by WCAS X had been issued and sold to WCAS X in
  connection with the previously announced private placement of Series A preferred
  stock and Series B preferred stock to WCAS X and other investors that
  closed on May 15, 2007.
  We conducted this sale and exchange as private
  placements in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of
  the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, contained in Section 4(2) of
  the Securities Act, and Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
  Commission, as transactions not involving a public offering. We have not
  registered the Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock under
  the Securities Act, and investors may not subsequently offer or sell them in
  the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the
  registration requirement. This report does not constitute an offer to sell or
  the solicitation of an offer to buy any security and shall not constitute an
  offer, solicitation or sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which an offer,
  solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification
  under the securities laws of such jurisdiction.
  For information regarding the powers, preferences
  and rights of the Series B preferred stock received by WCAS X in the
  exchange, please refer to the Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of
  Incorporation, a copy of which was included as Exhibit 3(i).1 to our current
  report on Form 8-K, dated August 24, 2007, which is incorporated
  herein by reference pursuant to General Instruction B.3 of Form 8-K.
