,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock outstanding, 17,000,000 shares of Series G Preferred Stock outstanding and 17,700,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock outstanding.

All shares of common stock offered hereby will be duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable. Under Maryland law, our stockholders generally are not personally liable for our debts and obligations solely as a result of their status as stockholders.

#### Voting
Subject to our charter restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock and the terms of any other class or series of our stock, each outstanding share of our common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. Cumulative voting in the election of directors is not permitted. Each nominee for director shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast. A majority of the votes cast means the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast “for” and “against” such nominee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a nominee for director shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast if the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected. If an incumbent director fails to receive the required vote for re-election, under our current bylaws our Board is required to publicly disclose whether it has requested and accepted the resignation of such director and, if applicable, its decision regarding any tendered resignation and its rationale.

Our bylaws provide that annual meetings of our stockholders will be held on the date and at the time and place set by our Board, and special meetings may be called by our Board, the Chairman of our Board, our president or our Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, our Secretary is required to call a special meeting of stockholders upon the written request of stockholders entitled to cast not less than 25% of all the votes entitled to be cast on such matter at the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our secretary is only required to call a special meeting regarding a matter that is substantially the same as a matter voted on at a special meeting held during the preceding twelve months upon the written request of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast on such matter at such meeting. In each case, stockholders requesting a special meeting must comply with the procedures set forth in, and provide the information and certifications required by, our bylaws. Our charter may be amended in accordance with its terms and Maryland law.
