The Units will not be issued or certificated. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately, but will be purchased together as a Unit in the Offering.  The offer and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrants were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-186076) (the “Registration Statement”), which became effective on February 1, 2013, and the closing is expected to occur on or about August 27, 2013.

The Company will redeem the Series A Preferred Stock on July 15, 2018 at $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the redemption date.  As a result, the Series A Preferred Stock will be held as debt on the Company’s balance sheet.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, conditions to closing, termination provisions, indemnification and other obligations of and agreements by the parties.
