As part of the Tender Offers, the Company is also soliciting consents (collectively, the "Consent Solicitations") for certain amendments that would eliminate or modify certain covenants, events of default and other provisions contained in the indentures governing the Notes. The Company intends to redeem any 9.750% Notes and 10.375% Notes not tendered in the Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations. The Company intends to satisfy and discharge any 6.875% Debentures that remain outstanding after the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation. Holders of 6.875% Debentures that are satisfied and discharged will continue to receive regular interest payments and repayment of their 6.875% Debentures will be made at maturity on August 15, 2013. In addition, on January 25, 2013, the Company called for redemption, and will redeem on February 25, 2013, all of its $6.0 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 9.25% Senior Notes due 2013.

A copy of the press release announcing the refinancing transactions is hereby incorporated by reference and attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

This report does not constitute a notice of redemption under the optional redemption provisions of the indenture governing any series of the Notes, nor does it constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security.
