This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain the specific terms of the securities offered. The prospectus supplements will also describe the specific manner in which we will offer the securities. The prospectus supplements may also add, update, or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, as well as the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, carefully before you invest.

The securities may be offered and sold to or through underwriters, brokers, dealers, or agents as designated from time to time, directly to one or more other purchasers, or through a combination of such methods. See "Plan of Distribution." If any underwriters, dealers, or agents are involved in the sale of any of the securities, their names, and any applicable purchase price, fee, commission, or discount arrangements between or among them, will be set forth, or will be calculable from the information set forth, in the applicable prospectus supplement.
