 the issuance of up to
1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value, in one or more series. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, 150,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock were the only shares of our preferred stock outstanding.

Prior to the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, we will file the Articles of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of West
Virginia, which will have the effect of amending our existing Charter to establish the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Articles of Amendment will initially authorize 230,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. We are offering 230,000
shares of the Series B Preferred Stock in the aggregate by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in connection with this offering. The Series B Preferred Stock represents a single series of our authorized preferred stock. Shares
of Series B Preferred Stock, upon issuance against full payment for the purchase price for the depositary shares, will be fully paid and nonassessable, which means that holders of such shares will have paid their purchase price in full and we may
not ask them to pay additional funds in respect of their shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

The number of authorized shares of the
Series B Preferred Stock initially is 230,000. The number of authorized shares may from time to time be increased (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of preferred stock, less all shares at the time authorized of any other
series of preferred stock) or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding) by resolution of the board of directors, without the vote or consent of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. We have
the authority to issue fractional shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

We may in the future from time to time, without notice to or
consent of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock or the holders of the depositary shares, issue additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock; provided,

S-23

that such additional shares are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and related depositary shares offered hereby. The additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock would form a single series with the Series B Preferred Stock offered hereby. In the event we issue additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock, we will issue an appropriate number of additional depositary shares that correspond to the fractional interest in such shares represented by the depositary shares being sold pursuant
