 a trading market does develop, the depth of that market
or the ability of holders to sell their depositary shares easily. We do not expect that there will be any separate public trading market for the shares of Series B Preferred Stock except as represented by the depositary shares.

Form and Notices

The Series B Preferred
Stock will be issued in registered form to the depositary, and the depositary shares will be issued in book-entry only form through DTC, as described below in “Book-Entry, Delivery and Form of Depositary Shares.” The depositary will
forward to the holders of the depositary shares all reports, notices, and communications from us that are delivered to the depositary and that we are required to furnish to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock.

Depositary

Computershare Inc. and
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. will be the joint depositary for the depositary shares as of the original issue date. We may terminate such appointment and may appoint a successor depositary at any time and from time to time, provided that we will
use our best efforts to ensure that there is, at all relevant times when the Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding, a person or entity appointed and serving as such depositary.

BOOK-ENTRY, DELIVERY AND FORM OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

The shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be issued in registered form to the depositary. The depositary shares will be issued under the
book-entry system of DTC in the form of one or more global depositary receipts. DTC will act as securities depositary for the global depositary receipts. This means that we will not issue actual depositary receipts to each owner of a beneficial
interest in depositary shares, except in limited circumstances. Instead, the depositary shares will be in the form of a single global depositary receipt deposited with and held in the name of DTC, or its nominee. The depositary shares will be
accepted for clearance by DTC. Beneficial interests in the depositary shares will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, the book-entry records maintained by DTC and its direct and indirect participants, including
Euroclear and Clearstream.

Owners of beneficial interests in depositary shares will receive all payments relating to their shares in U.S.
dollars. If we elect to issue certificates for the depositary shares held through DTC, we will replace the global depositary receipt with depositary receipts in certificated form registered
