The Company has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,100,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price to cover over-allotments, if any.
The shares will be offered through an underwriting syndicate led by Deutsche Bank Securities and Wachovia Securities with Citigroup, Raymond James and JMP Securities serving as underwriters.
