Extension of the Offering
On March 26, 2008, our board of directors approved an extension of our primary offering of 200,000,000 shares until the earlier of the sale of all 200,000,000 shares or May 30, 2008. Under rules promulgated by the SEC, we could extend our primary offering until January 13, 2009, and in some circumstances we could continue our primary offering until as late as July 12, 2009. If we extend our offering beyond May 30, 2008, we will provide that information in a prospectus supplement. We may continue to offer shares under our dividend reinvestment plan beyond these dates until we have sold 80,000,000 shares through the reinvestment of distributions. In many states, we will need to renew the registration statement or file a new registration statement to continue the offering for these periods. We may terminate this offering at any time.
