Explanatory Note
On November 3, 2014, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K, or the Original Form 8-K, to report that we had issued a press release setting forth our results of operations and financial condition for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014, and had provided certain supplemental operating and financial data for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014, or the Supplemental Data. The Original Form 8-K stated that both the press release and Supplemental Data were furnished as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, thereto. However, due to a technical issue, the Supplemental Data did not appear in the filed copy of the Original Form 8-K. We are again furnishing a copy of the press release, which is unchanged from what was furnished with the Original Form 8-K, as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, and amending the Original Form 8-K solely to attach the Supplemental Data as Exhibit 99.2 thereto.
ITEM 9.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.
