statement, we may offer and sell any combination of the securities identified in this prospectus in one or more offerings. Each time we offer and sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement and, if applicable, a pricing supplement
containing specific information about the terms of the securities being offered. That prospectus supplement may include a discussion of any risk factors or other special considerations that apply to those securities. In addition, under this shelf
registration process, one or more selling security holders to be identified in the future may, from time to time, offer and sell, in one or more offerings, the securities described in this prospectus. We may provide a prospectus supplement
containing specific information about the terms of a particular offering by the selling security holders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">You should rely only on the information

prospectus (including the information incorporated by reference therein) and any prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, you should rely on the information in that prospectus supplement or pricing supplement. You should read both this

prospectus supplement do not constitute, and may not be used in connection with, an offer or solicitation by anyone in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is
not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The registration statement containing this prospectus,

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement contain or incorporate by reference forward-looking statements about the Company that are intended
to be subject to the safe harbors created under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The use of words such as &#147;anticipates,&#148; &#147;estimates,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;intends,&#148; &#147;plans&#148; and
&#147;believes,&#148; among others, generally identify forward-looking statements; however, these words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate
strictly to historical or current facts. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. A
number of factors could cause actual conditions, events, or results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, those which may be set forth in the accompanying
prospectus supplement and those under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; included in our Annual Reports on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;10-K</FONT> and Quarterly Reports on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-Q,</FONT> and other
factors described in our periodic reports filed from time to time with the SEC. Actual results, performance or achievement could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, without
limitation, those discussed under &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in the applicable prospectus supplement and in other information contained in our publicly available filings with the SEC. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have a material
adverse effect on us and our business, financial condition and results of operations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We encourage you to understand forward-looking statements to be
strategic objectives rather than absolute forecasts of future performance. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to
predict. We are not under any obligation to, nor do we intend to, publicly update or review any of these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, even if experience or future events make it

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may issue senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities. Senior debt securities will be issued under an indenture, referred to as the &#147;senior
indenture,&#148; between us and a senior indenture trustee to be named in the applicable prospectus supplement. Subordinated debt securities will be issued under a separate indenture, referred to as the &#147;subordinated indenture,&#148; between us
and a subordinated indenture trustee to be named in the applicable prospectus supplement. The senior indenture and the subordinated indenture are sometimes collectively referred to in this prospectus as the &#147;indentures.&#148; The indentures
will be subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. A copy of the form of each of these indentures is included as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following briefly describes the general terms and provisions of the debt securities which may be offered and the indentures governing them. The particular
terms of the debt securities offered, and the extent, if any, to which these general provisions may apply to the debt securities so offered, will be described in a prospectus supplement relating to those securities. The following descriptions of the
indentures are not complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the respective indentures. </P>

securities from time to time, without limitation as to aggregate principal amount, and in one or more series. The indentures will not limit or otherwise restrict the amount of other indebtedness which we may incur or other securities which we or our
subsidiaries may issue, including indebtedness which may rank senior to the debt securities. Nothing in the form of subordinated indenture prohibits the issuance of securities representing subordinated indebtedness that is senior or junior to the
subordinated debt securities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless we give you different information in the prospectus supplement, the senior debt securities will be unsubordinated
obligations and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Payments on the subordinated debt securities will be subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior debt, as described under
&#147;Description of Debt Securities&#151;Subordination&#148; and in the applicable prospectus supplement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may issue debt securities if the conditions

or interest at a rate which at the time of issuance is below market rates and which will be sold at a substantial discount below their principal amount. If the maturity of any original issue discount security is accelerated, the amount payable to
the holder of the security will be determined by the applicable prospectus supplement, the terms of the security and the relevant indenture, but may be an amount less than the amount payable at the maturity of the principal of that original issue
discount security. Special federal income tax and other considerations relating to original issue discount securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the indentures, the terms of the debt securities of any series may differ and we may, without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of any
series, reopen a previous series of debt securities and issue additional debt securities of that series or establish additional terms of that series. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Please see the prospectus supplement and any related pricing supplement you have received or will receive for the terms of the specific debt securities we are

on subordinated debt securities will be junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of our senior debt, including senior debt securities. We will state in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any subordinated debt
securities the subordination terms of the securities as well as the aggregate amount of outstanding debt, as of the most recent practicable date, that by its terms would be senior to those subordinated debt securities. We will also state in that
prospectus supplement limitations, if any, on the incurrence of senior or subordinated indebtedness or general obligations, including indebtedness ranking on an equal basis with the subordinated debt securities offered by such prospectus supplement.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Holding Company Structure</I>. The debt securities will be our exclusive obligations. We are a holding company and substantially all of our
consolidated assets are held by our subsidiaries. Accordingly, our cash flows and our ability to service our debt, including the debt securities, are dependent upon the results of operations of our subsidiaries and the distribution of funds by our
subsidiaries to us. Various statutory and regulatory restrictions, however, limit directly or indirectly the amount of dividends our subsidiaries can pay, and also restrict certain subsidiaries from making investments in or loans to us. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because we are a holding company, the debt securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities, including indebtedness,
customer deposits, trade payables, guarantees and lease obligations, of our subsidiaries. Therefore, our rights and the rights of our creditors, including the holders of the debt securities, to participate in the assets of any subsidiary upon that
subsidiary&#146;s liquidation or reorganization will be subject to the prior claims of the subsidiary&#146;s creditors and, if applicable, its depositors, except to the extent that we may ourselves be a creditor with recognized claims against the
subsidiary, in which case our claims would still be effectively subordinate to any security interest in, or mortgages or other liens on, the assets of the subsidiary and would be subordinate to any indebtedness of the subsidiary senior to that which
is held by us. If a receiver or conservator were appointed for the Bank, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act recognizes a priority in favor of the holders of withdrawable deposits (including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as subrogee or
transferee) over general creditors. Claims for customer deposits would have a priority over any claims that we may ourselves have as a creditor of the Bank. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the applicable indenture
will not limit the amount of indebtedness or other liabilities that we and our subsidiaries may incur. </P>

the holders of Series&nbsp;D Preferred Stock nor holders of the related depositary shares have the right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Series&nbsp;D Preferred Stock. Redemption of the Series&nbsp;D Preferred Stock is subject to our

on the applicable Dividend Payment Date or be cumulative, and we will have no obligation to pay any dividend for that dividend period, whether or not our board of directors or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors declares a dividend
for any future dividend period with respect to the Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock or any other class or series of our preferred stock. Holders of Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by our board of
directors or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors, out of assets legally available for the payment of dividends under Maryland law, noncumulative cash dividends based on the liquidation preference of the Series&nbsp;E Preferred
Stock at a rate equal to 7.00% per annum for each quarterly dividend period from the original issue date of the Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock to, but excluding, the redemption date of the Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock, if any. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If declared by our board of directors or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors, we will pay dividends on the Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock
quarterly, in arrears, on the Dividend Payment Dates of each year. If any Dividend Payment Date is not a business day, then the dividend payable on such date will be paid on the next business day thereafter without any adjustment to the amount of
dividends paid. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A dividend period is the period from and including a Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the next Dividend Payment Date. Dividends
payable on the Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock will be computed on the basis of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">360-day</FONT> year consisting of twelve <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">30-day</FONT> months. Dollar amounts resulting from that
calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent, with <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-half</FONT> cent being rounded upward. Dividends on the Series&nbsp;E Preferred Stock will cease to accrue on the redemption date, if any, as described under

stock may be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by us, directly or indirectly (other than (i)&nbsp;as a result of a reclassification of junior stock for or into other junior stock, (ii)&nbsp;the exchange or conversion of

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The provisions of our charter and bylaws summarized in the following paragraphs may have anti-takeover effects and could delay, defer, or prevent a tender
offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in such stockholder&#146;s best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders, and may make removal of
the incumbent management and directors more difficult. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Authorized Shares</I>. Our charter authorizes the issuance of 450,000,000 shares of common
stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. We can generally issue, without stockholder approval, additional shares of capital stock, up to the amount authorized. The amount of authorized shares may not be changed by the board of directors
without a stockholder vote. However, our charter authorizes our board of directors to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of capital stock from time to time into one or more classes or series of stock by setting or changing in one or more
respects the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications or terms and conditions of redemption of such shares. The board of directors also has sole authority to determine the
terms of any one or more series of preferred or other stock, including voting rights, conversion rates, and liquidation preferences. As a result of the ability to fix voting rights for a series of preferred or other stock, the board has the power,
to the extent consistent with its fiduciary duties, to issue a series of preferred or other stock to persons friendly to the incumbent management and directors in order to attempt to block a tender offer, merger or other unsolicited transaction by
which a third party seeks control of us. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Voting Limitation</I>. Our charter generally prohibits any stockholder that beneficially owns more than 10%
of the outstanding shares of our common stock from voting shares in excess of this limit. This provision would limit the voting power of a beneficial owner of more than 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock in a proxy contest or on other
matters on which such person is entitled to vote. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Maryland General Corporation Law contains a control share acquisition statute which, in general

excluding &#147;interested shares,&#148; defined as shares held by the acquiring person, officers of the corporation and employees who are also directors of the corporation. A corporation may, however, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">opt-out</FONT>
of the control share statute through a charter or bylaw provision, which we have done pursuant to our charter. Accordingly, the Maryland control share acquisition statute does not apply to acquisitions of shares of our common stock. Though not

for a term of office of one year. Our bylaws provide that in an uncontested election of directors (one where the number of nominees is less than or equal to the number of open board seats), directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast, and
that in a contested election (one where the number of nominees exceeds the number of open board seats), directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast. Our charter provides that stockholders may not cumulate their votes in the election of
directors. Additionally, our charter and bylaws provide that, subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding, vacancies in the board of directors (including any vacancy caused by a director nominee failing to

combinations (for example, mergers, share exchanges, significant asset sales and significant stock issuances) involving &#147;interested stockholders&#148; of Banc of California, Inc. require, in addition to any vote required by law, the approval of
the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, unless either (i)&nbsp;a majority of the disinterested directors have
approved the business combination or (ii)&nbsp;certain fair price and procedure requirements are satisfied. An &#147;interested stockholder&#148; generally means a person who is a greater than 10% stockholder of Banc of California, Inc. or who is an
affiliate of Banc of California, Inc. and at any time within the past two years was a 10% or greater stockholder of Banc of California, Inc. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Maryland
General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute that prohibits a business combination between a corporation and an interested stockholder (one who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power) or any affiliate of the interested
stockholder for a period of five years after the interested stockholder first becomes an interested stockholder, unless the transaction has been approved by the board of directors before the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder or
the corporation has exempted itself from the statute pursuant to a charter provision. After the five-year period has elapsed, a corporation subject to the statute may not consummate a business combination with an interested stockholder unless
(i)&nbsp;the transaction has been recommended by the board of directors and (ii)&nbsp;the transaction has been approved by (a)&nbsp;80% of the votes entitled to be cast by outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation, voting together as a
single voting group and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(b)&nbsp;two-thirds</FONT> of the votes entitled to be cast by outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation, other than shares held by the interested stockholder or any affiliate or

the Maryland business combination statute through a provision in our charter. Though not anticipated, we could seek stockholder approval of an amendment to our charter to eliminate the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">opt-out</FONT> provision. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Amendment of Bylaws</I>. Our bylaws generally may be amended upon approval by the board of directors or the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares
of our Voting Common Stock (after giving effect to the 10% voting limitation described under &#147;&#151;Voting Limitation&#148;). However, an amendment of the provision of the bylaws regarding the right of stockholders to call special meetings
would require the vote of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">two-thirds</FONT> of the outstanding Voting Common Stock (after giving effect to the 10% voting limitation described under &#147;&#151;Voting Limitation&#148;). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Advance Notice Provisions</I>. Our bylaws provide that we must receive written notice of any stockholder proposal for business at an annual meeting of

annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from the anniversary date of the preceding year&#146;s annual meeting, notice of the proposal or nomination must be received by us no earlier than the 120th day prior to

In connection with the issuance of any depositary shares, we will enter into a deposit agreement with a depositary, which will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement. The following briefly summarizes the material provisions of the deposit
agreement and of the depositary shares and depositary receipts, other than pricing and related terms disclosed for a particular issuance in an accompanying prospectus supplement. This description is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in
its entirety by reference to, all provisions of the applicable deposit agreement, depositary shares and depositary receipts. You should read the particular terms of any depositary shares and any depositary receipts that are offered and any deposit
agreement relating to a particular series of preferred stock described in more detail in a prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will also state whether any of the generalized provisions summarized below do not apply to the depositary

for depositary shares, each of which will represent a fraction of a share of a particular series of preferred stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The shares of any series of
preferred stock represented by depositary shares will be deposited under a deposit agreement between us and the depositary we select. Each owner of a depositary share will be entitled to all the rights and preferences of the underlying preferred
stock, including any dividend, voting, redemption, conversion and liquidation rights described in the particular prospectus supplement, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of preferred stock represented by such depositary share. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued pursuant to the deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to those
persons purchasing the fractional shares of preferred stock in accordance with the terms of the applicable prospectus supplement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Dividends and Other

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the case of a distribution other than in cash, the preferred stock depositary will distribute any property received by it other than cash to the record
holders of depositary shares entitled to receive it. If the preferred stock depositary determines that it is not feasible to make such a distribution, it may, with our approval, sell the property and distribute the net proceeds from the sale to the
holders of the depositary shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The amounts distributed in any such distribution, whether in cash or otherwise, will be reduced by any amount required

preferred stock depositary resulting from the redemption, in whole or in part, of that series of preferred stock. The depositary shares will be redeemed by the preferred stock depositary at a price per depositary share equal to the applicable
fraction of the redemption price per share payable in respect of the shares of preferred stock redeemed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Whenever we redeem shares of preferred stock

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may issue the securities in the form of one or more fully registered global securities
that will be deposited with a depository or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that depository or its nominee. In those cases, one or more registered global securities will be issued in a
denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by registered global securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive
registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depository for the registered global security, the nominees of the depository or any successors of the depository or those nominees. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If not described below, any specific terms of the depository arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a registered global security will
be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depository arrangements. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the depository or
persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depository will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants&#146; accounts with the respective principal or
face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through,
records maintained by the depository, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states and other jurisdictions may require that
some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">So long as the depository, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global security, that depository or its nominee, as the case may be, will
be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security will not be entitled to have the
securities represented by the registered global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities.
Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depository for that registered global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant
through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, unit agreement or deposit agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of
holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take, the depository for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding
the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through
them. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, debt securities, and any payments to holders with respect to other securities
represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depository or its nominee will be made to the depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of Banc of
California, Inc., the trustees, the warrant agents, the unit agents or any preferred stock depositary, as applicable, will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or the payments made on account of beneficial
ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect that the depository for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium,
interest or other distribution of underlying securities or other property to holders of that registered global security, will immediately credit participants&#146; accounts in amounts proportionate to their

respective beneficial interests in that registered global security as shown on the records of the depository. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a
registered global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in &#147;street
name,&#148; and will be the responsibility of those participants. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the depository for any of these securities represented by a registered global
security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depository or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depository registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us
within 90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the registered global security that had been held by the depository. In addition, under the terms of the indenture for any debt securities, we may at any time and in our
sole discretion decide not to have any of such securities represented by one or more registered global securities. We understand, however, that, under current industry practices, the depository would notify its participants of our request, but will
only withdraw beneficial interests from a global security at the request of each participant. We would issue definitive certificates in exchange for any such interests withdrawn. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered
global security will be registered in the name or names that the depository gives to the applicable trustee, warrant agent, unit agent, preferred stock depositary or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depository&#146;s
instructions will be based upon directions received by the depository from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global security that had been held by the depository. </P>

amount of the improper benefit or profit; or (2)&nbsp;to the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer is entered in a proceeding based on a finding that the director&#146;s or officer&#146;s action or

director or officer may not be indemnified in respect of any proceeding alleging improper personal benefit in which he or she was found liable on the grounds that personal benefit was improperly received. A director or officer found liable in a

the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
