 be equal to 1/1,000th of the redemption price per share payable with respect to the series E preferred (or $25.00 per series E depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends. Whenever we redeem shares of series E preferred held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem, as of the same redemption date, the number of series E depositary shares representing shares of series E preferred so redeemed. In case of any redemption of less than all of the outstanding series E depositary shares, the series E depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by the depositary pro rata or by lot. In any such case, the depositary will redeem series E depositary shares only in increments of 100 shares and any multiple thereof.

Liquidation Preference . In the event that we liquidate, dissolve or wind-up our business and affairs, either voluntarily or involuntarily, each holder of a series E depositary share will be entitled to receive a liquidation distribution of $25.00 per series E depositary share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends, before we make any distribution of assets to the holders of our common stock or any other class or series of stock ranking junior to the series E preferred as to that distribution.

Voting Rights . When the depositary receives notice of any meeting at which the holders of the series E preferred are entitled to vote, the depositary will mail (or otherwise transmit by an authorized method) the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the series E depositary shares representing the series E preferred. Each record holder of the series E depositary shares on the record date, which will be the same date as the record date for the series E preferred, may instruct the depositary to vote the amount of the series E preferred represented by the holder’s series E depositary shares. To the extent possible, the depositary will vote the amount of the series E preferred represented by series E depositary shares in accordance with the instructions it receives. We will agree to take all reasonable actions that the depositary determines are necessary to enable the depositary to vote as instructed. If the depositary does not receive specific instructions from the holders of any series E depositary shares representing the series E preferred, it will vote all series E depositary shares held by it proportionately with instructions received.
