Under this shelf process, we may sell any combination of the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings.  This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer.  Each time we offer to sell any of the securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering and the securities being offered.  The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus.

Before purchasing any securities, you should carefully consider the risk factors incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the risk factors contained in our annual, quarterly and current reports.  Additional risk factors specific to particular securities will be detailed in one or more supplements to this prospectus.  If any of these risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and prospects, the market price of our common stock and our ability to satisfy any debt service obligations may be materially and adversely affected.  This could cause the value of our securities to decline and you could lose part or all of your investment.  These risks are not the only ones we face.  Additional risks not presently known to us or that as of the date of this prospectus we deem immaterial may also have a material adverse effect on us.  Some statements included in this prospectus, in the documents incorporated by reference herein and in any prospectus supplement constitute forward-looking statements.  Please refer to the sections entitled &#8220;Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,&#8221; &#8220;Where You Can Find More Information&#8221; and &#8220;Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.&#8221; You should consult your financial, legal, tax and other professional advisors as to the risks associated with an investment in our securities and the suitability of the investment for you.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="height:54pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">5</font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:54pt;width:100%"><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:center"><font id="i5ea82b5289994935b2c80214ae92f1a7"></font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">This prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and the documents that we incorporate by reference herein and therein, each contain &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.

When the warrant holder makes the payment and properly completes and signs the warrant certificate at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the prospectus supplement, we will, as soon as practicable, forward or cause to be forwarded the common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, depositary shares or other securities or rights that the warrant holder has purchased, as the case may be.  If the warrant holder exercises the warrant for less than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate, we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining warrants.</font></div><div style="height:54pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">24</font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:54pt;width:100%"><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:center"><font id="ie7c42eca4739483d9b2d2d14457b6053"></font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">PURCHASE CONTRACTS</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:9pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The following description contains general terms and provisions of purchase contracts to which any prospectus supplement may relate.
