Item 4 Purpose of Transaction.
     Item 4 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding immediately before the penultimate paragraph thereof the following:
     On November 8, 2007, representatives of the Reporting Persons jointly invited several financial institutions to bid to purchase some or all of the Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. On November 8, 2007, the Reporting Persons entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Issuer, the Reporting Persons and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Reporting Persons agreed to sell an aggregate of 23,545,368 shares of Issuer Common Stock at a per share price of $43.26 pursuant to an underwritten offering registered on the Issuer’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-131373). The closing of these sales is expected to occur on November 14, 2007 (the “Offering Closing Date”). Concurrent with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Persons exercised the Series A Warrants,

CUSIP No. 631103108    
and the Series B Warrants, (each as defined below) to acquire an aggregate of 2,355,724 shares of Issuer Common Stock pursuant to net exercise provisions included in those warrants and converted an aggregate of $60,000,000 principal amount of Series A Notes (as defined below) into Issuer Common Stock (resulting in the issuance of 4,137,927 shares of Issuer Common Stock) and an aggregate of $240,000,000 principal amount of Series B Notes (as defined below) into Issuer Common Stock (resulting in the issuance of 16,551,717 shares of Issuer Common Stock). In connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement and pursuant to the terms therein, the Reporting Persons have entered into commitments with the Underwriter not to engage in any sales of shares of Issuer Common Stock other than pursuant to the underwritten offering for a period of at least 30 days, but in no event more than 47 days, from the date of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, Patrick Healy, a member of H&F Investors and a current director of the Issuer has executed a lock-up agreement, dated as of November 8, 2007 (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), restricting him from engaging in any sales of shares of Issuer Common Stock for a period of at least 30 days, but in no event more than 47 days, from the date of the Purchase Agreement.
     The forgoing summaries of the Purchase Agreement and the Lock-Up Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Purchase Agreement and the Lock-Up Agreement, filed as Exhibit 20 and Exhibit 21 hereto, respectively.
Item 5 Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
     Item 5(a), (b) and (c) of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
     The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Items 2, 3, 4 and 6 is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
     The information contained on the cover pages to this Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. The following disclosure assumes that there are 114,532,516 shares of Issuer Common Stock outstanding as of October 31, 2007, as reported in the Issuer’s Preliminary Prospectus Supplement filed on November 8, 2007.
     Patrick Healy, a member of H&F Investors and a current director of the Issuer, holds for the benefit of the H&F Partnerships 3,098 shares of restricted Issuer Common Stock, which in the aggregate represents less than 0.1% of the Issuer Common Stock outstanding. The H&F Partnerships have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to such restricted Issuer Common Stock.
     Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), prior to the Offering Closing Date, after giving effect to (i) the exercise of Series A Warrants pursuant to the net exercise provisions thereof (the “Series A Warrants”), (ii) the exercise of Series B Warrants pursuant to the net exercise provisions thereof (the “Series B Warrants”), (iii) the conversion of 3.75% Series A Convertible Notes Due 2012 (the “Series A Notes”) and (iv) the conversion of 3.75% Series B Convertible Notes Due 2012 (the “Series B Notes”), each into shares of Issuer Common, each of the H&F Partnerships will hold the amount of shares of Issuer Common Stock set forth under their name in the table below. Each H&F Partnership has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to these securities.

Issuer Common Stock
    18,979,866       3,115,622       1,027,758       422,122  
     As the general partner of each of the H&F Partnerships, H&F Investors may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock over which any of the H&F Partnerships has voting or dispositive power, as reflected in the table above. Accordingly, H&F Investors may be deemed to have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to, and beneficially own, an aggregate of 23,548,466 shares of Issuer Common Stock, representing approximately 17.1% of the Issuer Common Stock outstanding. As described in Item 4 above, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Persons have agreed to sell 23,545,368 shares of Issuer Common Stock

8


 

CUSIP No. 631103108    
they beneficially own to the Underwriter at a price of $43.26 per share, representing all shares of Issuer Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons except for the 3,098 shares held by Mr. Healy for the benefit of the H&F Partnerships.
     The investment decisions of H&F Investors are made by an investment committee of H&F Investors. The investment committee has the power to vote or to direct the vote of, and to dispose or to direct the disposition of, the shares of Issuer Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by H&F Investors. As a result, each of the members of the investment committee may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Issuer Common Stock that H&F Investors may be deemed to beneficially own. Each of the members of the investment committee, disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Issuer Common Stock that H&F Investors may be deemed to beneficially own, except to the extent of his or her indirect pecuniary interest, if any, therein.
     Collectively, prior to the Offering Closing Date, the Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate total of 23,548,466 shares of Issuer Common Stock, or approximately 17.1% of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock. Because of the matters described in Item 4, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have formed a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of Issuer Common Stock. In addition, due to the existence of a common general partner among the H&F Partnerships, the H&F Partnerships may be deemed to constitute a group within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 of the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. As such, each of the H&F Partnerships (i) may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, of all the shares of Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by H&F Investors and (ii) may be deemed to beneficially own, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, an aggregate of 23,548,466 shares of Issuer Common Stock, representing approximately 17.1% of the Issuer Common Stock outstanding. However, each of the H&F Partnerships disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the shares of Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by the other H&F Partnerships, except to the extent set forth in this Item 5, above.
     Neither the filing of Amendment No. 3 to this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any Reporting Person or any other person described in Item 2 of the Schedules 13D or listed in any schedule thereto is the beneficial owner of the Issuer Common Stock referred to herein or is a member of any “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership and membership in any such group is expressly disclaimed.
Item 6 Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
     Item 6 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to incorporate by reference the amendments and supplements to Item 4 herein.
Item 7 Material to be Filed as Exhibits
     Item 7 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding at the end thereof the following:
20.   Form of Purchase Agreement, dated November 8, 2007, among the Issuer, the Reporting Persons and the Underwriter (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 1.01 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 13, 2007).
