EXPLANATORY NOTE: This Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K/A is being filed to correct certain errors appearing in the body of the Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K filed by the Registrant on February 14, 2007 (the “Old Report on Form 6-K”). In particular, the Old Report on Form 6-K incorrectly stated that information contained in the Exhibits thereto was incorporated by reference into the prospectus relating to the Registrant’s debt securities contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statements on Form F-3 (File Nos. 333-11964 and 333-11928), as such prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time. This Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K/A deletes that statement and hereby amends, restates and replaces in its entirety the Old Report on Form 6-K, including the Exhibits thereto.
