* The Company restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000 to reflect: findings of the Special Committee of the Board of Directors released on August 30, 2004; the correction of accounting errors; reclassifications arising from the required adoption of a new FASB standard; and other items, principally the effects of foreign currency translation adjustments. These periods have also been revised to reflect discontinued operations treatment of businesses sold in 2004.
