This Prospectus Supplement relates to resales of shares of our common stock, or interests therein, issuable from time to time as described in a Prospectus dated April 3, 2002 and previously supplemented on July 13, 2004 (as supplemented, the “Prospectus”). This Prospectus Supplement is a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Prospectus.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of the Prospectus or this Prospectus Supplement. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

The date of this Prospectus Supplement is December 15, 2005.

 

This Prospectus Supplement describes the dissolution of one of the entities referred to in the Prospectus as a “selling securityholder”. On December 15, 2005, Big Beaver Investments, LLC (“Big Beaver”) made a distribution of all of its assets to its members. Such assets included shares of common stock of the Company covered by the Prospectus. Accordingly, certain members of Big Beaver are replacing Big Beaver as a selling securityholder under the Prospectus with respect to those shares received.

 

The table of selling securityholders in the “Selling Securityholders” section of the Prospectus is modified to delete the following line item referring to Big Beaver (table headings are shown for convenience):
