Net proceeds:

We estimate that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $213.0 million (or approximately $242.2 million if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full), after deducting the underwriters discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

Convertible note hedge and warrant transactions:

We entered into convertible note hedge transactions with one or more financial institutions, which include one or more of the underwriters and/or their respective affiliates (the option counterparties). We also entered into warrant transactions with the option counterparties.

The convertible note hedge transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, as the case may be. However, the warrant transactions could separately have a dilutive effect to the extent that the market value per share of our common stock exceeds the applicable strike price of the warrants. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment

option, we may enter into additional convertible note hedge and warrant transactions with the option counterparties, as described under Use of proceeds below. See Description of the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

Use of proceeds:

We intend to use approximately $28.6 million of the net proceeds from the offering to pay the cost of the convertible note hedge transactions we entered into with the option counterparties (after such cost is partially offset by the proceeds to us from the sale of the warrants pursuant to the warrant transactions we entered into with the option counterparties).

We also intend to use approximately $136.1 million of the net proceeds from the offering to repurchase approximately $131.6 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2015 from holders of these notes in privately negotiated transactions, net of accrued interest on such notes.

We intend to use the remaining net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of indebtedness, potential acquisitions, working capital and capital expenditures.

If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option, we may sell additional warrants to the option counterparties and use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the additional notes, together with the proceeds from the additional warrants, to enter into additional convertible note hedge transactions with the option counterparties. Any remaining net proceeds from the sale of the additional notes will be used for general corporate purposes as described above.

See Use of proceeds in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

Discounts and commissions:

Notes sold by the underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the public offering price.

The following table shows the underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid to the underwriters by us in connection with the offering, assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option:


Paid by us		No exercise		Full exercise
Per note	$	28.75	$	28.75
Total	$	6,325,000.00	$	7,187,500.00

Description of notesConversion rightsIncrease in conversion rate upon conversion upon a make-whole fundamental change

Holders who convert their notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) occurring prior to the maturity date may be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate for the notes so surrendered for conversion.

The following table sets forth the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each stock price and effective date set forth below:

The exact stock prices and effective dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

If the stock price is between two stock prices in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock prices and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.

If the stock price is greater than $35.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

If the stock price is less than $7.71 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of notes exceed 129.7016 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement under Description of notesConversion rightsConversion rate adjustments.

Our obligation to increase the conversion rate for notes converted in connection with a make-whole fundamental change could be considered a penalty, in which case the enforceability thereof would be subject to general principles of reasonableness and equitable remedies.

Capitalization

(1)

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (ASC 470-20), convertible debt that may be wholly or partially settled in cash is required to be separated into a liability and an equity component, such that interest expense reflects the issuers nonconvertible debt interest rate. Upon issuance, a debt discount is recognized as a decrease in debt and an increase in equity. The debt component accretes up to the principal amount over the expected term of the debt. ASC 470-20 does not affect the actual amount that we are required to repay, and the amount shown in the table above for the notes and the 2015 notes is the aggregate principal amount of such notes, without reflecting the debt discount or fees and expenses that we are required to recognize or the increase in additional paid-in capital on our consolidated balance sheet.

(2)

The 2015 notes are recorded on our historical September 30, 2013 balance sheet at $162.7 million and are being amortized up to the principal amount of $175.0 million through May 15, 2015. After giving effect to the repurchase of the 2015 notes as described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, the carrying value of the remaining 2015 notes will be amortized up to the aggregate principal amount of $43.4 million through May 15, 2015.

(3)

The table above does not include the following as of September 30, 2013:

953,883 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options at a weighted-average exercise price of $12.16 per share;

1,921,148 shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of restricted stock units, including 212,557 of which are vested but not yet released in connection with awards granted to non-employee directors;

1,895,926 shares of common stock reserved for the issuance under our 2006 Incentive Compensation Plan; and

shares of our common stock to be reserved for issuance: (a) upon conversion of the 2015 notes; (b) upon conversion of the notes offered by the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and this pricing term sheet; and (c) in connection with the warrant transactions entered into concurrently with the 2015 notes and to be entered into concurrently with the pricing of the notes offered by the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and this pricing term sheet as described under Description of the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

(4)

Issuance of the notes (giving effect to the application of ASC 470-20 as described in note (1) above) and the entry into the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions will result in a net increase in additional paid-in capital and, therefore, a net increase in total stockholders equity and total capitalization. Amounts shown in the table above do not reflect application of ASC 470-20 to the notes.

(5)

Retained earnings have not been adjusted for any impact from gain or loss resulting from the repurchase of the 2015 notes.
