This prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference herein, contain certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Exchange Act and are based on management’s current expectations, that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our current expectations. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “may,” “can,” “continue,” “project,” “assumption,” “should,” “expect,” “confidence,” “goals,” “trends,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “on track,” “future,” “well positioned to,” “plan,” “potential,” “position,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” “target,” similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If such risks or uncertainties materialize or such assumptions prove incorrect, our results and our consolidated subsidiaries results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and assumptions. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to revise or update any such forward-looking statements for any reason, except as required by law.

Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to:

Investing in any securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement involves risks. Before investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the most recent year, in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act and other information contained in the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable free writing prospectus. These risks are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair or harm our business and financial results. Statements in or portions of a future document incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including, without limitation, those relating to risk factors, may update and supersede statements in and portions of this prospectus or such incorporated documents.

We intend to use the net proceeds from the sales of the securities described in this prospectus as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The following is a general description of the debt securities that we may offer from time to time. We also may sell hybrid securities that combine certain features of debt securities and other securities described in this prospectus. The debt securities will be issued from time to time under an indenture and applicable supplemental indenture, if any, with respect to any series of debt securities, between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The indenture and any supplemental indenture are technical documents with terms that have defined meanings. A prospectus supplement will contain a summary of the indenture and any applicable supplemental indenture. We urge you to read the indenture, any applicable supplemental indenture and the accompanying prospectus supplement describing the particular terms of the debt securities because they, and not this description, define the rights of the debt security holders. The form of indenture is filed as an exhibit to this registration statement.

The following briefly summarizes the material provisions of the indenture and the debt securities, other than pricing and related terms for a particular issuance, which will be described in an accompanying prospectus supplement.

A form of each debt security, reflecting the particular terms and provisions of a series of offered debt securities, will be filed with the SEC at the time of the offering.

The debt securities may be secured or unsecured. Except as otherwise provided in a supplemental indenture or prospectus supplement, the debt securities will be unsecured and will (i) rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness; (ii) rank senior in right of payment to our future subordinated indebtedness; (iii) be effectively subordinated to any of our current or future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of any assets securing such indebtedness; and (iv) be structurally subordinated to, which means they rank behind, all of the liabilities of our subsidiaries.

All payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and all registration, transfer, exchange, authentication and delivery of, the debt securities will be effected initially by the trustee or its agent acting as trustee, paying agent or registrar as set forth in the indenture at an office designated by the trustee as its corporate trust office.

The prospectus supplement for any offered series of debt securities will describe the following terms, as applicable:

We will issue the debt securities only in registered form. As currently anticipated, debt securities of a series will trade in book-entry form. Unless otherwise provided in the accompanying prospectus supplement, we will issue debt securities denominated in U.S. Dollars and only in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

This prospectus describes the general terms of our capital stock. For a more detailed description of our capital stock, you should read the applicable provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (“MGCL”) and our charter and bylaws.

Our charter provides that we may issue up to 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share (our “common stock”), and up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share (our “preferred stock”), and permits our board of directors, without stockholder approval, to amend the charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have authority to issue. As of October 27, 2023, there were 229,186,423 shares of our common stock outstanding and no shares of our preferred stock outstanding. Under the MGCL, stockholders generally are not personally liable for our debts or obligations solely as a result of their status as stockholders.

Holders of our common stock generally have no preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund, redemption or appraisal rights and have no preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends if, as and when authorized by our board of directors and declared by us out of assets legally available for the payment of dividends. They are also entitled to share ratably in our assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment of or adequate provision for all of our known debts and liabilities. These rights are subject to the preferential rights, if any, of any other class or series of our stock. All outstanding shares of our common stock are, and any shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus will be when issued and paid for, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

Each outstanding share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. Except as provided with respect to any other class or series of stock, the holders of our common stock will possess the exclusive voting power. In uncontested elections, directors are elected by a majority of all of the votes cast in the election of directors, and in contested elections, directors are elected by a plurality of all of the votes cast in the election of directors. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which means that the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock can elect all of the directors then standing for election, and the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any directors.

Our charter (1) authorizes our board of directors to classify and reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock and preferred stock into other classes or series of stock and (2) permits our board of directors, without stockholder approval, to amend the charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have authority to issue. Prior to issuance of shares of each class or series, the board of directors is required by the MGCL and by our charter to set the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption for each class or series. Thus, the board of directors could authorize the issuance of shares of preferred stock with terms and conditions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for holders of our common stock or otherwise be in their best interest. Our board of directors may take these actions without stockholder approval unless stockholder approval is required by the terms of any other class or series of our stock or the rules of any stock exchange or automatic quotation system on which our securities may be listed or traded. No shares of our preferred stock are presently outstanding, and we have no present plans to issue any preferred stock.

Our board of directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue, at any time and from time to time, up to 25,000,000 shares of our preferred stock in one or more classes or series. Each such class or series shall have such preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or

A prospectus supplement, relating to any offered class or series of preferred stock, will specify the following terms of such class or series, as applicable:

We may issue warrants to purchase the securities described in this prospectus. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent. Additional information regarding any warrants we may offer and the related warrant agreement will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may issue rights to purchase the securities described in this prospectus. Additional information regarding any rights we may offer, the rights agreement relating to the rights and the rights certificates representing the rights, will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may offer depositary shares representing fractional interests in shares of our preferred stock of any class or series. In connection with the issuance of any depositary shares, we will enter into a deposit agreement with a depositary. Depositary shares may be evidenced by depositary receipts issued pursuant to the related deposit agreement. Additional information regarding any depositary shares we may offer, the class or series of preferred stock represented by those depositary shares and the related deposit agreement will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may issue purchase contracts for the purchase or sale of the securities described in this prospectus. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, each purchase contract will entitle the holder thereof to purchase or sell, and obligate us to sell or purchase, on specified dates, the securities specified in the applicable prospectus supplement at a specified price or prices, which may be based on a formula, all as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Additional information regarding any purchase contracts we may offer will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may issue units consisting of any of our other securities described in this prospectus. Additional information regarding any units that we may offer will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The following summary of certain provisions of Maryland law and of our charter and bylaws does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to Maryland law and our charter and bylaws.

Our charter and bylaws provide that the number of directors of our Company may be established, increased or decreased only by a majority of our entire board of directors but may not be fewer than the minimum number required by the MGCL, which is one.

We have elected to be subject to a provision of Maryland law requiring that, except as may be provided by our board of directors in setting the terms of any class or series of preferred stock, any vacancy on our board of directors may be filled only by a majority of the remaining directors, even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum. Any director so elected will serve for the remainder of the full term of the directorship in which the vacancy occurred and until a successor is duly elected and qualifies.

Each of our directors is elected by our stockholders to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualifies. Holders of shares of our common stock will have no right to cumulative voting in the election of directors. In uncontested elections, directors are elected by a majority of all of the votes cast in the election of directors, and in contested elections, directors are elected by a plurality of all of the votes cast in the election of directors.

We have elected to be subject to a provision of Maryland law that provides that a director may be removed only by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast generally in the election of directors. This provision, when coupled with the exclusive power of our board of directors to fill vacant directorships, may preclude stockholders from removing incumbent directors except by a substantial affirmative vote and filling the vacancies created by such removal with their own nominees.

Under the MGCL, certain “business combinations” (including a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or, in certain circumstances specified under the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities) between a Maryland corporation and any interested stockholder, or an affiliate of such an interested stockholder, are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. Maryland law defines an interested stockholder as:

A person is not an interested stockholder under the statute if the board of directors approved in advance the transaction by which the person otherwise would have become an interested stockholder. In approving a transaction, however, the board of directors may provide that its approval is subject to compliance, at or after the time of the approval, with any terms and conditions determined by it.

After such five-year period, any such business combination must be recommended by the board of directors of the corporation and approved by the affirmative vote of at least:

These provisions of the MGCL do not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by a corporation’s board of directors prior to the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder.

The MGCL provides that holders of “control shares” of a Maryland corporation acquired in a “control share acquisition” have no voting rights with respect to their control shares except to the extent approved by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast in the election of directors, generally, excluding shares of stock in a corporation in respect of which any of the following persons is entitled to exercise or direct the exercise of the voting power in the election of directors: (1) the person who made or proposes to make a control share acquisition, (2) an officer of the corporation or (3) an employee of the corporation who is also a director of the corporation. “Control shares” are voting shares of stock that, if aggregated with all other such shares of stock previously acquired by the acquirer or in respect of which the acquirer is able to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would cause the acquirer to be entitled to exercise voting power in electing directors within one of the following ranges of voting power:

Control shares do not include shares that the acquiring person is then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained stockholder approval or shares acquired directly from the corporation. A “control share acquisition” means the acquisition, directly or indirectly, of ownership of, or the power to direct the exercise of voting power with respect to, issued and outstanding control shares, subject to certain exceptions.

A person who has made or proposes to make a control share acquisition, upon satisfaction of certain conditions (including an undertaking to pay expenses and making an “acquiring person statement” as described in the MGCL), may compel the board of directors to call a special meeting of stockholders to be held within 50 days of demand to consider the voting rights of the control shares. If no request for a special meeting is made, the corporation may itself present the question at any stockholders meeting.

If voting rights of control shares are not approved at the meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an “acquiring person statement” as required by the statute, then, subject to certain conditions and limitations, the corporation may redeem any or all of the control shares (except those for which voting rights have previously been approved) for fair value determined, without regard to the absence of voting rights for the control shares, as of the date of any meeting of stockholders at which the voting rights of such shares are considered and not approved or, if no such meeting is held, as of the date of the last control acquisition by the acquirer. If voting rights for control shares are approved at a stockholders meeting and the acquirer becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights. The fair value of the shares as determined for purposes of such appraisal rights may not be less than the highest price per share paid by the acquirer in the control share acquisition.

The control share acquisition statute does not apply to: (1) shares acquired in a merger, consolidation or share exchange if the corporation is a party to the transaction or (2) acquisitions approved or exempted by the charter or bylaws of the corporation prior to the date of the acquisition.

Our bylaws contain a provision exempting from the control share acquisition statute any and all acquisitions by any person of shares of our stock. We cannot provide you any assurance, however, that our board of directors will not amend or eliminate this provision at any time in the future.

Subtitle 8 of Title 3 of the MGCL permits a Maryland corporation with a class of equity securities registered under the Exchange Act and at least three independent directors to elect to be subject, by provision in

We have elected to be subject to the provisions of Subtitle 8 relating to the removal of directors, the filling of vacancies on our board of directors and the board’s exclusive power to fix the number of directorships. Through provisions in our charter and bylaws unrelated to Subtitle 8, we already vest in the board the exclusive power to fix the number of directorships, subject to limitations set forth in our charter and bylaws, and require, unless called by the chairman of our board of directors, our chief executive officer, our president or our board of directors, the request of stockholders entitled to cast not less than a majority of all votes entitled to be cast on a matter at such meeting to call a special meeting to consider and vote on any matter that may properly be considered at a meeting of stockholders.

Our charter contains a provision that prohibits us from classifying our board pursuant to Subtitle 8 without the approval of a majority of the votes cast on such matter by the holders of our common stock.

Under the MGCL, a Maryland corporation generally cannot dissolve, merge, consolidate, convert, sell all or substantially all of its assets or engage in a statutory share exchange, unless approved by the affirmative vote of stockholders holding at least two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote on the matter. However, a Maryland corporation may provide in its charter for approval of these matters by a lesser percentage but not less than a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Our charter provides for approval by a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast in these situations.

Our charter may be amended only if such amendment is declared advisable by our board of directors and approved by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Our board of directors has the power to amend, alter or repeal any provision of our bylaws and to make new bylaws. In addition, our stockholders may amend, alter or repeal any provision of our bylaws and adopt new bylaws, but only with the approval of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter.

Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of any duty owed by any director or officer or other employee to us or to our stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim against us or any director or officer or other employee arising pursuant to any provision of the MGCL or our charter or bylaws or (d) any action asserting a claim against us or any director or officer or other employee that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine shall be the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland, or, if that Court does not have jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Baltimore Division.

The purpose of requiring stockholders to give advance notice of nominations and other proposals is to afford our board of directors the opportunity to consider the qualifications of the proposed nominees or the advisability of the other proposals and, to the extent considered necessary by our board of directors, to inform stockholders and make recommendations regarding the nominations or other proposals. The advance notice procedures also permit a more orderly procedure for conducting our stockholder meetings.

Our bylaws permit a stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, that owns 3% or more of our common stock continuously for at least three years and through the date of the annual meeting (and any postponement or adjournment thereof) to nominate and include in our proxy materials candidates for election as directors of the Company, subject to certain terms and conditions. Generally, such stockholder(s) or group(s) of stockholders may nominate director candidates constituting up to the greater of two individuals or 20% of our board of directors, provided that the stockholder(s) and the director nominee(s) satisfy the eligibility, notice and other requirements specified in the bylaws.

Our election to be subject to the provisions of Subtitle 8 regarding the removal of directors and the exclusive power of our board of directors to fill vacancies on the board and the advance notice provisions of our bylaws could delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control of our company that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interests of our common stockholders. Likewise, if the provision in our bylaws opting out of the control share acquisition provisions of the MGCL were amended or rescinded, these provisions of the MGCL could have similar anti-takeover effects.

We will identify the specific plan of distribution, including any underwriters, dealers, agents or direct purchasers and their compensation, in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Certain legal matters in connection with the offered securities will be passed upon for us by Latham & Watkins LLP, New York, New York, and Venable LLP, Baltimore, Maryland. Any underwriters or agents will be represented by their own legal counsel, who will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The following table sets forth expenses payable by us in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered pursuant to this registration statement. All the amounts shown are estimates.

The Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”) permits a Maryland corporation to include in its charter a provision eliminating the liability of its directors and officers to the corporation and its stockholders for money damages except for liability resulting from (a) actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services or (b) active and deliberate dishonesty established by a final judgment or other final adjudication to be material to the cause of action. Our charter contains a provision that eliminates the liability of our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law.

Our charter authorizes us, and our bylaws obligate us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (a) any present or former director or officer or (b) any individual who, at our request, serves or has served another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise as a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise from and against any claim or liability to which such person may become subject or which such person may incur by reason of his or her service in such capacity. Our charter also permits us to indemnify and advance expenses to any person who served a predecessor of ours in any of the capacities described above and to any employee or agent of ours or a predecessor of ours.

The MGCL requires a Maryland corporation (unless its charter provides otherwise, which our charter does not) to indemnify a director or officer who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she is made, or threatened to be made a party by reason of his or her service in that capacity. The MGCL permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its present and former directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may be made or threatened to be made a party to by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that (a) the act or omission of the director or
