Any potential sale is subject to market and other conditions, and we may change the number of shares to be sold or the timing of the sale or decide not to proceed with the sale.
If the sale is made, we understand Merrill Lynch expects to reoffer the shares on December 21.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state. Any offering will be made only through a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus.
