* Less than one percent (1%).
(1) Assumes conversion of all of the holder's debentures at a conversion
rate of 41.58 shares of CD common stock per $1,000 principal amount
of the debentures. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment,
however, as described under "Description of Debentures--Conversion
Rights". As a result, the number of shares of CD common stock
issuable upon conversion of the debentures may increase or decrease
in the future. Does not include shares of CD common stock that may be
issued by us upon purchase of the debentures by us at the option of
the holder.
(2) Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(i) of the Exchange Act, using
1,036,488,745 shares of CD common stock outstanding as of September
30, 2002. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as
outstanding the number of shares of CD common stock issuable upon
conversion of all of that holder's debentures, but we did not assume
conversion of any other holder's debentures. Does not include shares
of CD common stock that may be issued by us upon purchase of the
debentures by us at the option of the holder.
Investing in the debentures or shares of CD common stock involves
risks that are described in the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page 14 of
the prospectus.
