(1) As reported in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K, except Noncontrolling interest in subsidiary which has been retroactively presented as a separate component of Stockholders’ equity.

(2) Property and equipment, net, as of December 31, 2008, increased by $3.3 million due to the retroactive capitalization of interest costs using the Company’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate of 8.39% as of the date of issuance. Prior to the adoption of FSP

APB 14-1 codified into FASB ASC Subtopic 470-20, the Company was capitalizing its interest costs at the stated interest rate on the Convertible Debentures of 3.25%.

(3) Other assets as of December 31, 2008, decreased by $209.6 million due to a decrease to long-term deferred tax assets and a retroactive adjustment of debt issuance costs upon the adoption of FSP APB 14-1, codified into ASC Subtopic 470-20. Long-term deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2008, decreased by $195.7 million, and the Company reclassified $14.5 million of debt issuance costs from Other assets to Additional paid-in capital. The reclassification resulted in a cumulative decrease in amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.6 million as of December 31, 2008.

(4) Convertible debentures, including contingent interest derivative, as of December 31, 2008, decreased by $692.9 million due to the reclassification of the $700.7 million equity component of the convertible debt to Stockholders’ equity offset by $7.8 million accretion of interest.

(5) Long-term deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2008, increased by $68.2 million upon adoption of FSP APB 14-1, codified into ASC Subtopic 470-20.

(6) Additional paid-in capital as of December 31, 2008 increased by $419.0 million. The Company determined that the equity component of the Convertible Debentures was $700.7 million. This amount was reclassified from Convertible debentures, including contingent interest derivative, to Additional paid-in capital. The Company reclassified the equity component related debt issuance costs of $14.5 million from Other assets to Additional paid-in capital. The Company recorded long-term deferred tax liabilities of $267.2 million with a corresponding impact to Additional paid-in capital.

(7) Accumulated other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2008 increased by $0.1 million due to a reclassification of unrealized gain on investment from Additional paid-in capital.
