Except as otherwise disclosed above or in documents incorporated herein by reference, the selling stockholders, have not within the past three years had any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates. Because the selling stockholders may sell all or some portion of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by them, only an estimate (assuming the selling stockholders sell all of the shares offered hereby) can be given as to the number of shares of common stock that will be beneficially owned by the selling stockholders after this offering. In addition, the selling stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time or from time to time since the dates on which they provided the information regarding the shares beneficially owned by them, all or a portion of the shares beneficially owned by them in transactions registered under other effective registration
The preceding table has been prepared based upon the information furnished to us by the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders identified above may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of some or all of their common stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act since the dates on which they provided the information regarding the common stock beneficially owned by them. Information concerning the selling securityholder may change from time to time and, if necessary, we will supplement this prospectus accordingly.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders may offer their shares of common stock at various times in one or more of the following transactions:
| • | on any U.S. securities exchange on which our common stock may be listed at the time of such sale; |
| • | in the over-the-counter market; |
11
| • | in transactions other than on such exchanges or in the over-the-counter market; |
| • | in connection with short sales; or |
| • | in a combination of any of the above transactions. |
The selling stockholders may offer their shares of common stock at prevailing market prices, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices. The selling stockholders may transfer shares to discharge indebtedness, as payment for goods or services, or for other non-cash consideration. A selling stockholder is a person named on pages 2 to 11 of this Prospectus Supplement and also includes any donnee, pledgee, transferee or other successor-in-interest selling shares received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership or limited liability company distribution, assignment or other non-sale related transfer.
The selling stockholders may use broker-dealers to sell their shares of common stock. If this occurs, broker-dealers will either receive discounts or commission from the selling stockholder, or they will receive commissions from the purchasers of shares of common stock for whom they acted as agents. These brokers may act as dealers by purchasing any and all of the shares covered by this prospectus either as agents for others or as principals for their own accounts and reselling these securities under the Prospectus Supplement.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or other persons acting on the behalf of parties that participate in the distribution of the shares may be considered underwriters under the Securities Act. As such, any commissions or profits they receive on the resale of the shares may be considered underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.
As of the date of this Prospectus Supplement, we are not aware of any agreement, arrangement or understanding between any broker or dealer and any of the selling stockholders with respect to the offer or sale of the shares under this prospectus. Each of the following of the entities or individuals is listed on the table of Selling Securityholders: Inwood Trust, Lakefront Partners, Ltd., John S. Lemak, Dean S. Oakey and Janis A.

If we become aware of any agreement, arrangement or understanding, to the extent required under the Securities Act, we will file a supplemental prospectus to disclose:
| • | the name of any of the broker-dealers; |
| • | the number of shares involved; |
| • | the price at which the shares are to be sold; |
| • | the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to broker-dealers, where applicable; |
12
| • | that the broker-dealers did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out in this prospectus, as supplemented; and |
| • | other facts material to the transaction. |
Certain of the agreements with the selling stockholders contain reciprocal indemnification provisions between us and the selling stockholder to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, which may be based upon, among other things, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact.
