FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus, contains, or incorporates by reference, certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the OrganizationPrivate Securities Litigation Reform Act of Petroleum Exporting Countries1995. Statements that are not historical in nature or that relate to establishfuture events and maintain production quotas for oil prices), domestic and worldwide economic conditions and political instability in oil producing countries. Weakness in oil and natural gas prices (or the perception by our customers that oil and natural gas prices will decrease)are, or may cause lower rates and lower utilization of available well service equipment. In addition, when oil and natural gas prices are weak, or when our customers expect oil and natural gas prices to decrease, fewer wells are drilled, resulting in less drilling and less maintenance work for us. Additional factors that affect demand for our services include: - the level of development, exploration and production activity of, and corresponding spending by, oil and natural gas companies; - oil and natural gas production costs; - government regulation; and - conditions in the worldwide oil and natural gas industry. In addition, we anticipate that prices for oil and natural gas will continuebe deemed to be, volatileforward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates and affect the demand forprojections and pricing of our services. Decreases in oilmanagement’s beliefs and natural gas prices can result in a reduction in the trading prices and value of our securities, even if the decreases in oil and natural gas prices do not affect our business generally. However, a material decline in oil or natural gas prices or activities over a sustained period of time could materially adversely affect the demand for our services and, therefore, our results of operationsassumptions concerning future events and financial condition. Periods of diminished or weakened demand for our services have occurred in the past. We have experienced a decrease in the demand for our services beginning in August 2001, and continuing through September 2002. We believe this trend is due to an overall weakening of demand for onshore well services, which is attributable to general uncertainty about future oil and nature gas prices and the U.S. economy. If these conditions continue, or worsen, they could have a material adverse effect ontrends affecting our financial condition and results of operations. In lightsome cases, you can identify these statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “predicts,” “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of thesesuch terms and other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of performance. Future actions, events and conditions and future results of operations may differ materially from those expressed in these statements. In evaluating those statements, you should carefully consider the information above as well as the risks outlined in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 and in the other reports we file with the SEC.

We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report except as required by law. All of our written and oral forward-looking statements are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements and any other cautionary statements that may accompany such forward-looking statements.

Important factors relatingthat may affect our expectations, estimates or projections include, but are not limited to, the following:

conditions in the oil and natural gas industry, our historical operating results may not be indicative of future performance. AN ECONOMIC DOWNTURN MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. The United States economy is currently believed to be in a recession. An economic downturn may cause reduced demand for petroleum-based products and natural gas. In addition, manyespecially oil and natural gas production companies often reduceprices and capital expenditures by oil and natural gas companies;

volatility in oil and natural gas prices;

our ability to implement price increases or delay expendituresmaintain pricing on our core services;

risks that we may not be able to reduce, costs, which in turn may cause a reductionand could even experience increases in, the costs of labor, fuel, equipment and supplies employed in our businesses;

industry capacity;

asset impairments or other charges;

the periodic low demand for our services during these periods. According toand resulting operating losses and negative cash flows;

our highly competitive industry data, in July 2001, there were approximately 1,293 active drilling rigs in the United States. As of September 27, 2002, the number of active drilling rigs had been reduced to 875. The number of active drilling rigs may be indicative of demands for services such as those we provide. If the economic environment worsens, our business may be further adversely impacted. 3 OUR BUSINESS INVOLVES CERTAIN OPERATING RISKS, WHICH ARE PRIMARILY SELF-INSURED, AND OUR INSURANCE MAY NOT BE ADEQUATE TO COVER ALL LOSSES OR LIABILITIES WE MIGHT INCUR IN OUR OPERATIONS. Our operationswell as operating risks, which are subject to many hazards and risks, including the following: - blow-outs; - reservoir damage; - loss of well control; - cratering; - fires; - accidents resulting in serious bodily injuryprimarily self-insured, and the loss of life or property; - pollution and other damage to the environment; and - liabilities from accident or damage by our fleet of trucks. If these hazards occur they could result in suspension of operations, damage to or destruction of our equipment and the property of others and injury or death to personnel. We self insure a significant portion of these liabilities. For losses in excess of our self-insurance limits, we maintain insurance from unrelated commercial carriers. However,possibility that our insurance may not be adequate to cover all of our losses or liabilities;

significant costs and potential liabilities that we mightresulting from compliance with applicable laws, including those resulting from environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, specifically those relating to hydraulic fracturing, as well as climate change legislation or initiatives;

our historically high employee turnover rate and our ability to replace or add workers, including executive officers and skilled workers;

our ability to incur in debt or long-term lease obligations;

our operations. There can be no assurance thatability to implement technological developments and enhancements;

severe weather impacts on our insurance will adequately protect us against liability from all of the hazardsbusiness;

our ability to successfully identify, make and integrate acquisitions and our ability to finance future growth of our business. Moreover, we also are subjectoperations or future acquisitions;

-4-


our ability to achieve the risk that we may not be able to maintain or obtain insurance of benefits expected from disposition transactions;

the type and amount we desire at a reasonable cost. If we were to incur a significant liability for which we were not fully insured it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations. WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE ECONOMIC, POLITICAL AND SOCIAL INSTABILITY RISKS OF DOING BUSINESS IN CERTAIN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. We have operations in Argentina, Egypt and Canada, and may expand our operations into other foreign countries. As a result, we are exposed to risks of international operations, including: - increased governmental ownership and regulation of the economy in the markets where we operate; - inflation and adverse economic conditions stemming from governmental attempts to reduce inflation, such as imposition of higher interest rates and wage and price controls; - increased trade barriers, such as higher tariffs and taxes on imports of commodity products; - exchange controls or other currency restrictions; - war, civil unrest or significant political instability; - expropriation, confiscatory taxation and nationalization of our assets located in the markets where we operate; and - governmental policies limiting returns to foreign investors. The occurrenceloss of one or more of these risks may: 4 - negatively impact our results of operations; - restrict the movement of funds; - inhibit our ability to collect receivables; and - lead to U.S. government or international sanctions. WE HISTORICALLY HAVE EXPERIENCED A HIGH EMPLOYEE TURNOVER RATE. ANY DIFFICULTY WE EXPERIENCE REPLACING OR ADDING WORKERS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. We historically have experienced an annual employee turnover rate of over 50%. The high turnover rate is caused by the nature of the work, which is physically demanding and performed outdoors. As a result, workers may choose to pursue employment in fields that offer a more desirable work environment at wage rates that are competitive with ours. We cannot assure that at times of high demand we will be able to retain, recruit and train an adequate number of workers. Potential inability or lack of desire by workers to commute to our facilities and job sites and competition for workers from other industries are factors that could affect our ability to attract and retain workers. We believe that our wage rates are competitive with the wage rates of our competitors and other potential employers. A significant increase in the wages other employers pay could result in a reduction in our workforce, increases in our wage rates, or both. Either of these events could diminish our profitability and growth potential. WE ARE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS AND REGULATIONS THAT EXPOSE US TO POTENTIAL LIABILITY. Our operations are regulated under a number of foreign, federal, state and local laws that govern, among other things, the handling, storage and disposal of waste materials, some of which are classified as hazardous substances, and the discharge of hazardous materials into the environment. Our operations are subject to stringent regulations relating to protection of the environment and waste handling. In addition to potential liability if we should fail to comply, these regulations may expose us to liability for noncompliance of other parties, without regard to whether we were negligent. Sanctions for noncompliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations may include administrative, civil and criminal penalties, revocation of permits and corrective action orders. Furthermore, we may be liable for costs for environmental clean-up at currently or previously owned or operated properties or off-site locations where we sent, disposed of, or arranged for disposal of hazardous materials. Compliance with existing laws or regulations, the adoption of new laws or regulations or the more vigorous enforcement of environmental laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our operations by increasing our expenses and limiting our future business opportunities. WE HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF INDEBTEDNESS AND COULD INCUR ADDITIONAL INDEBTEDNESS, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND BUSINESS PROSPECTS AND PREVENT US FROM FULFILLING OUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER OUR OUTSTANDING INDEBTEDNESS. We had approximately $504.5 million of long-term indebtedness and capital lease obligations outstanding at September 30, 2002. We are permitted under our senior credit facility and the indentures governing our public debt securities to incur additional debt, subject to certain limitations. If we incur additional debt, our increased leverage could, for example: - make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations under our public debt securities or other indebtedness and, if we fail to comply with the requirements of the other indebtedness, that failure could result in an event of default on our public debt securities or such other indebtedness; - require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to required payments on indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of cash flow for working capital, capital expenditures and other general business activities; - limit our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate activities; 5 - limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; - detract from our ability to successfully withstand a downturn in our business or the economy generally; and - place us at a competitive disadvantage against less leveraged competitors. If new debt is added to our and our subsidiaries' current debt levels, the related risks that we and they now face could increase. WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GENERATE SIGNIFICANT CASH FLOW TO MEET OUR DEBT SERVICE OBLIGATIONS. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, and to fund planned capital expenditures, will depend on larger customers;

our ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet debt service our outstanding indebtedness, that future borrowings will be available to us under our senior credit facility in anobligations;

the amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our existing indebtedness on or before maturity. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including our senior credit facility, on commercially reasonable terms or at all. OUR DEBT INSTRUMENTS IMPOSE RESTRICTIONS ON US THAT MAY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY OPERATE OUR BUSINESS. Our senior credit facilitydebt and the terms oflimitations imposed by the indentures forcovenants in the agreements governing our public debt, securities limitincluding our ability to take various actions, such as: - incurring additional indebtedness; - paying dividends; - repurchasing junior indebtedness; - making investments; - entering into transactions with affiliates; - merging or consolidating with other entities; and - selling all or substantially all of our assets. In addition, our senior CREDIT FACILITY requires us to maintain certain financial covenant ratios and satisfy certain financial condition tests, several of which become more restrictive over time and may require us to take action to reduce our debt or take some other action in order to comply with them. These restrictions also could limit our ability to obtain future financings, make needed capital expenditures, withstand a downturn in our business or the economy in general, or otherwise conduct necessary corporate activities. We also may be prevented from taking advantage of business opportunities that arise because of the limitations imposed on us by the restrictive covenants under our senior credit facility and the indentures. WE HAVE PURSUED AND CONTINUE TO PURSUE STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS. OUR BUSINESS MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF WE CANNOT EFFECTIVELY INTEGRATE ACQUIRED OPERATIONS. A component of our strategy includes acquiring complementary businesses. Acquisitions involve a number of risks and challenges including: 6 - our ability to integrate acquired operations; - potential loss of key employees and customers of the acquired companies; and - debt agreements;

an increase in our expensesdebt service obligations due to variable rate indebtedness;

our inability to achieve our financial, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. Anyoperational projections, including quarterly and annual projections of these factors could adversely affectrevenue and/or operating income and our inaccurate assessment of future activity levels, customer demand, and pricing stability which may not materialize (whether for Key as a whole or for geographic regions and/or business segments individually);

risks affecting our international operations, including risks affecting our ability to achieve anticipated levelsexecute our plans to withdraw from international markets outside North America;

our ability to respond to changing or declining market conditions, including our ability to reduce the costs of earningslabor, fuel, equipment and cash flow from acquisitions or realize supplies employed and used in our businesses;

our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity;

adverse impact of litigation; and

other anticipated benefits. Furthermore, competition fromfactors affecting our business described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 and in the other potential buyers could reduce our acquisition opportunities or cause usreports we file with the SEC.

In the summary, we have included references to section numbers of the Indentures so that you can easily locate those provisions. Capitalized terms used incovered by this summary have the meanings used in the Indentures. GENERAL We are a holding company that conducts substantially all operations through our subsidiaries. Holders of debt securities generally will have a junior position to claims of creditors of our subsidiaries including trade creditors, debt holders, secured creditors, taxing authorities, guaranty holders and any preferred stockholders. At September 30, 2002, we did not have any outstanding preferred stock and we and our subsidiaries had approximately $504.5 million of outstanding long-term debt and capital lease obligations. - The Indentures do not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities that can be issued thereunder. (Section 301) - Debt securities may be issued in one or more series, each in an aggregate principal amount we authorize before issuance, and may be in any currency or currency unit that we may designate. (Section 301) - Debt securities of a series may be issued in registered or global form. (Sections 201 and 203) - The Indentures do not limit the amount of other unsecured debt or securities that we can issue. - The senior debt securities will rank equally with all of our other senior debt. - The subordinated debt securities will have a junior position to all of our senior debt. (Section 1301) A prospectus supplement and a supplemental indenture relating to any series of debt securities being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering. These terms will include some or all of the following: - the title and type of debt securities being offered; - the total principal amount of debt securities being offered; - the dates on which the principal of, and premium, if any, on the offered debt securities is payable; - the interest rate; - the date from which interest will accrue; 11 - the interest payment dates; - any optional redemption periods; - any sinking fund or other provisions that would obligate us to repurchase or otherwise redeem the debt securities; - whether the debt securities will be convertible into shares of common stock or exchangeable for other of our securities, and if so, the terms of conversion or exchange; - events causing acceleration of maturity; - any provisions granting special rights to holders when specified events occur; - any changes to or additional events of default or covenants; - any special tax implications of the debt securities; and - any other terms of the debt securities.

DENOMINATIONS The debt securities will be issued in denominations of $1,000 or multiples thereof.

(Sections 1301 and 1302) 12 The subordinated indenture will not limit the amount of senior debt that we may incur. Senior Indebtedness is defined to include all our secured and unsecured direct or contingent liabilities and obligations, including our guarantees for money we borrow, which is not expressed to be subordinate to or junior in right of, payment to any of our other indebtedness, but does not include our intercompany indebtedness, our trade payables and our tax liabilities. EVENTS OF DEFAULT The following are Events of Default under each Indenture: - failure to pay principal or any premium on any debt security when due; - failure to pay any interest on any debt security when due, continued for 30 days; - failure to deposit any mandatory sinking fund payment when due, continued for 30 days; - failure to perform or breach of any covenant or warranty in the Indenture that continues for 90 days after written notice; - certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization; and - any other event of default as may be specified in the supplemental indenture with respect to debt securities of such series. (Section 501) An Event of Default for a particular series of debt securities does not necessarily constitute an Event of Default for any other series of debt securities. The Trustee may withhold notice to the holders of debt securities of any default (except in the payment of principal or interest) if the Trustee in good faith determines the withholding of notice to be in the best interest of the holders. (Section 602) ACCELERATION OF DEBT UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT If an Event of Default occurs either the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities may declare the principal amount of all the debt securities of the applicable series to be due and payable immediately. (Section 502) If this happens, subject to certain conditions, the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of a series of debt securities can void the declaration. These conditions include the requirement that we have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all overdue principal and interest payments on the series of debt securities subject to the default. (Section 502) If an Event of Default occurs due to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all series will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of either Trustee or any holder. (Section 502) Depending on the terms of our indebtedness, an Event of Default under an Indenture may cause a cross default on our other indebtedness. DUTIES OF TRUSTEE Other than its duties in the case of default, the Trustee is not obligated to exercise any of its rights or powers under either Indenture at the request, order or direction of any holders unless the holders offer the Trustee reasonable indemnity. (Section 603) If the holders provide reasonable indemnification, the holders of a majority of principal amount of any series of debt securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any power conferred upon the Trustee for any series of debt securities. (Section 512) 13 COVENANTS Under the Indentures, we will: - pay the principal, interest and premium, if any, on the debt securities when due; - maintain a place of payment; - deliver a report to the Trustee at the end of each fiscal year reviewing our obligations under the Indentures; and - deposit sufficient funds with any payment agent on or before the due date for the payment of any principal, interest or premium, if any. (Sections 1001, 1002, 1003 and 1005) MODIFICATION OF INDENTURES Each Indenture provides that we and the Trustee may, without the consent of any holders of debt securities, enter into supplemental debt indentures for the purposes, among other things, of: - adding to our covenants; - adding additional events of default; - changing or eliminating any provisions of the indentures so long as there are no holders entitled to the benefit of the provisions; - establishing the form or terms of any series of debt securities; or - curing ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies in the Indentures or making any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indentures. With specific exceptions, the Indentures or the rights of the holders of the debt securities may be modified by us and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the debt securities of each series affected by the modification, but no modification may be made without the consent of the holders of each outstanding debt security affected which would: - change the maturity of any payment of principal of, or any premium on, or any installment of interest on any debt security; - change the terms of any sinking fund with respect to any debt security; - reduce the principal amount of, or the interest or any premium on, any debt security upon redemption or repayment at the option of the holder; - change any place of payment where, or the currency in which, any debt security or any premium or interest is payable; - impair the right to sue for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any debt security; or - reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of any series required to consent to any supplemental debt indenture, any waiver of compliance with provisions the Indenture or specific defaults and their consequences provided for in the Indentures, or otherwise modify the sections in the Indentures relating to these consents. 14 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS Each Indenture generally permits a consolidation or merger between us and another company. They also permit us to sell all or substantially all of our property and assets. If this happens, the remaining or acquiring company will assume all of our responsibilities and liabilities under the Indentures, including the payment of all amounts due on the debt securities and performance of the covenants in the Indentures. (Sections 801 and 802) We will only consolidate or merge with or into another company or sell all or substantially all of our assets according to the terms and conditions of the Indentures. The remaining or acquiring company will assume our obligations under the Indentures with the same effect as if it had been an original party to the Indentures and we shall be released from all our liabilities and obligations under either Indenture and any debt securities. (Sections 801 and 802) Thereafter, the successor company may exercise our rights and powers under either Indenture, in our name or in its own name. Any act or proceeding required or permitted to be done by our board of directors or any of our officers may be done by the board or officers of the successor company. DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE We will be discharged from all obligations under the applicable indenture with respect to any series of debt securities, except for surviving obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the debt securities, if: - all debt securities of the series previously authenticated and delivered under the relevant indenture have been delivered to the indenture trustee for cancellation; or - all debt securities of that series have become due and payable or will become due and payable, at maturity or by redemption, and we deposit with the applicable trustee funds or government securities sufficient to make payments on the debt securities of that series on the dates those payments are due. To exercise our right to be discharged, we must deliver the following to the applicable trustee: - an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the exercise of such option and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same; and - an officers' certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the satisfaction and discharge of the applicable indenture have been complied with. In addition to our right of discharge described above, we may deposit with the applicable trustee funds or government securities sufficient to make payments on the debt securities of a series on the dates those payments are due and payable, then, at our option, either of the following will occur: - we will be discharged from our obligations with respect to the debt securities of that series ("legal defeasance"); or - we will no longer have any obligation to comply with the restrictive covenants under the applicable indenture, and the related events of default will no longer apply to us, but some of our other obligations under the indenture and the debt securities of that series, including our obligation to make payments on those debt securities, will survive ("covenant defeasance"). If we defease a series of debt securities, the holders of the debt securities of the series affected will not be entitled to the benefits of the applicable indenture, except for our obligations to: - register the transfer or exchange of debt securities; - replace stolen, lost or mutilated debt securities; and 15 - maintain paying agencies and hold moneys for payment in trust. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, we will be required to deliver to the applicable trustee an opinion of counsel that the deposit and related defeasance would not cause the holders of the debt securities to recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If we elect legal defeasance, that opinion of counsel must be based on a ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a change in law to that effect. PAYMENT AND PAYING AGENTS Principal, interest and premium, if any, on fully registered securities will be paid at designated places. Payment will be made by check mailed to the person in whose name the debt securities are registered on the day specified in the Indentures or any prospectus supplement. Payments in other forms will be paid at a place designated by us and specified in a prospectus supplement. (Section 307) Fully registered securities may be transferred or exchanged at the corporate trust office of the Trustee or at any other office or agency maintained by us for such purposes without the payment of any service charge except for any tax or governmental charge. (Section 1002) GLOBAL SECURITIES The debt securities of a series may be issued in the form of one or more global certificates that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in a prospectus supplement. We may issue global debt securities in either temporary or permanent form. We will describe in the prospectus supplement the terms of any depositary arrangement and the rights and limitations of owners of beneficial interests in any global debt security. 16 DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK As of September 30, 2002, our authorized capital stock was 200,000,000 shares, all of which may be issued as shares of common stock and up to 15,169,320 of which may be issued as shares of preferred stock. As of that date, we had 128,108,584 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. COMMON STOCK LISTING. Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "KEG." DIVIDENDS. Common stockholders may receive dividends when declared by the board of directors. Dividends may be paid in cash, stock or another form. However, certain of our existing debt agreements contain covenants that currently restrict us from paying dividends. Additionally, in certain cases, common stockholders may not receive dividends until we have satisfied our obligations to any preferred stockholders. FULLY PAID. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. Any additional common stock we issue will also be fully paid and non-assessable. VOTING RIGHTS. Common stockholders are entitled to one vote in the election of directors and other matters for each share of common stock owned. Common stockholders are not entitled to preemptive or cumulative voting rights. OTHER RIGHTS. We will notify common stockholders of any stockholders' meetings according to applicable law. If we liquidate, dissolve or wind-up our business, either voluntarily or not, common stockholders will share equally in the assets remaining after we pay our creditors and preferred stockholders. TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Our transfer agent and registrar is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, New York, New York. PREFERRED STOCK Our board of directors can, without approval of our stockholders, issue one or more series of preferred stock. The board can also determine the number of shares of each series and the rights, preferences and limitations of each series including the dividend rights, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption rights and any liquidation preferences of any series of preferred stock, the number of shares constituting each series and the terms and conditions of issue. If we offer preferred stock, the specific terms will be described in a prospectus supplement, including: - the specific designation, number of shares, seniority and purchase price; - any liquidation preference per share; - any date of maturity; - any redemption, repayment or sinking fund provisions; - any dividend rate or rates and the dates on which any such dividends will be payable (or the method by which such rates or dates will be determined); - any voting rights; - if other than the currency of the United States, the currency or currencies including composite currencies in which such preferred stock is denominated and/or in which payments will or may be payable; - the method by which amounts in respect of such preferred stock may be calculated and any commodities, currencies or indices, or value, rate or price, relevant to such calculation; 17 - whether such preferred stock is convertible or exchangeable and, if so, the securities or rights into which such preferred stock is convertible or exchangeable, and the terms and conditions upon which such conversions or exchanges will be effected including conversion or exchange prices or rates, the conversion or exchange period and any other related provisions; - the place or places where dividends and other payments on the preferred stock will be payable; and - any additional voting, dividend, liquidation, redemption and other rights, preferences, privileges, limitations and restrictions. All shares of preferred stock offered will, when issued, be fully paid and non-assessable. The transfer agent, registrar, and dividend disbursement agent for a series of preferred stock will be named in a prospectus supplement. The registrar for shares of preferred stock will send notices to stockholders of any meetings at which holders of the preferred stock have the right to elect directors or to vote on any other matter. In some cases, the issuance of preferred stock could delay a change in control of us and make it harder to remove present management. Under certain circumstances, preferred stock could also restrict dividend payments to common stockholders. DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS We may issue warrants, including warrants to purchase debt securities, preferred stock, common stock or other securities. We may issue warrants independently or together with other securities that may be attached to or separate from the warrants. If we issue warrants, we will do so under one or more warrant agreements between us and a warrant agent that we will name in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement relating to any warrants being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering. These terms will include some or all of the following: - the title of the warrants; - the securities into which the warrants are exercisable; - the exercise price; - the aggregate number of warrants to be issued; - the principal amount of securities purchasable upon exercise of each warrant; - the price or prices at which each warrant will be issued; - the procedures for exercising the warrants; - the date upon which the exercise of warrants will commence; and - the expiration date, and any other material terms of the warrants. 18 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION We may sell the securities in and outside the United States (1) through underwriters or dealers, (2) directly to purchasers or (3) through agents. The prospectus supplement will set forth the following information: - the terms of the offering; - the names of any underwriters or agents; - the name or names of any managing underwriter or underwriters; - the purchase price of the securities from us; - the net proceeds we will receive from the sale of the securities; - any delayed delivery arrangements; - any underwriting discounts, commissions and other items constituting underwriters' compensation; - the initial public offering price; - any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and - any commissions paid to agents. SALE THROUGH UNDERWRITERS OR DEALERS If we use underwriters in the sale of the offered securities, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account. The underwritersunderwriter(s) may resell the securities from time to timeshares of our common stock in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters

To the extent required, this prospectus may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by onebe amended or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to several conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may changesupplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution, including the names of any underwriters, the purchase price and the proceeds the selling stockholders will receive from the sale, any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation, any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. Ifdealers, and any other information we use underwriters in the sale of the offered securities, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the underwriters and certain selling group membersbelieve to bid for and purchase our securities until the distribution of the offered securities is completed. As an exception to these rules, the underwriters are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the offered securities. be material.

In connection with an underwritten offering,distributions of the underwritersshares or otherwise, the selling stockholders may makeenter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the offered securities and may purchase our securities on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchasecommon stock in the offering. "Covered" short sales are made in an amount not greater thancourse of hedging the over-allotment option we may grant to the underwriters in connectionpositions they assume with the offering.selling stockholders. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising the over-allotment option or purchasing our securities in the open market. In determining the source of securities to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of securities available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase securities through the over-allotment option. "Naked" short sales are sales in excess of the over-allotment option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing our securities in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the securities in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. 19 The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid on certain selling group members. This means that if the underwriters purchase our securities in the open market to reduce the selling group members' short position or to stabilize the price of the securities, they may reclaim the amount of the selling concession from the selling group members who sold those securities as part of the offering. In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than it might be in the absence of those purchases or those purchases could prevent or retard a decline in the price of the security. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the security. Neither we nor the underwriters will make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions we describe above may have on the price of the offered securities. In addition, neither we nor the underwriters will make any representation that the underwriters will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice. If we use dealers in the sale of securities, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. We will include in the prospectus supplement the names of the dealers and the terms of the transactions. DIRECT SALES AND SALES THROUGH AGENTS We may sell the securities directly. In that event, no underwriters or agents would be involved. Westockholders may also sell the securities throughcommon stock short and redeliver the shares to close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The selling stockholders may also pledge shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution may effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents we designateengaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from timethe selling stockholders in amounts to time. Inbe negotiated immediately prior to the prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involvedsale.

Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who participate in the offersale or saledistribution of the offered securities, and we will describe any commissions payable by us to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment. We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others whocommon stock may be deemed to be underwriters“underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act.

As a result, any profits on the sale of the common stock by such selling stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions received by it may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Affiliates of selling stockholders who are deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act with respectwill be subject to any saleprospectus delivery requirements of those securities. We will describe the Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to certain statutory liabilities, including, but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FORNON-U.S. HOLDERS OF SHARES

This section summarizes certain United States federal income and estate tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of shares by anon-U.S. holder. You are anon-U.S. holder if you are, for United States federal income tax purposes:

a nonresident alien individual,

a foreign corporation, or

an estate or trust that in either case is not subject to contributeUnited States federal income tax on a net income basis on income or gain from shares.

This section does not consider the specific facts and circumstances that may be relevant to a particularnon-U.S. holder and does not address the treatment of anon-U.S. holder under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction. This section is based on the tax laws of the United States, including the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), existing and proposed regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations, all as currently in effect. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

If a partnership holds the shares, the United States federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the tax treatment of the partnership. A partner in a partnership holding the shares should consult its tax advisor with regard to the United States federal income tax treatment of an investment in the shares.

You should consult a tax advisor regarding the United States federal tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of common stock in your particular circumstances, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.

Dividends

Except as described below, if you are anon-U.S. holder of shares, dividends paid to you are subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate. Even if you are eligible for a lower treaty rate, we and other payors will generally be required to withhold at a 30% rate (rather than the lower treaty rate) on dividend payments to you, unless you have furnished to us or another payor:

a valid Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) FormW-8 or an acceptable substitute form upon which you certify, under penalties of perjury, your status as anon-U.S. person and your entitlement to the lower treaty rate with respect to such payments, or

in the case of payments made outside the United States to an offshore account (generally, an account maintained by you at an office or branch of a bank or other financial institution at any location outside the United States), other documentary evidence establishing your entitlement to the lower treaty rate in accordance with U.S. Treasury regulations.

If you are eligible for a reduced rate of United States withholding tax under a tax treaty, you may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld in excess of that rate by filing a refund claim with the agents, dealersIRS.

If dividends paid to you are “effectively connected” with your conduct of a trade or underwritersbusiness within the United States, and, if required by a tax treaty, the dividends are attributable to a permanent establishment that you maintain in the United States, we and other payors generally are not required to withhold tax from the dividends, provided that you have furnished to us or another payor a valid IRS FormW-8ECI or an acceptable substitute form upon which you represent, under penalties of perjury, that:

you are anon-U.S. person, and

the dividends are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States and are includible in your gross income.

-12-


“Effectively connected” dividends are taxed at rates applicable to United States citizens, resident aliens and domestic United States corporations.

If you are a corporatenon-U.S. holder, “effectively connected” dividends that you receive may, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate.

Gain on Disposition of Shares

If you are anon-U.S. holder, you generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax on gain that you recognize on a disposition of shares unless:

the gain is “effectively connected” with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment that you maintain in the United States, if that is required by an applicable income tax treaty as a condition for subjecting you to United States taxation on a net income basis,

you are an individual, you hold the shares as a capital asset, you are present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of the sale and certain other conditions exist, or

we are or have been a United States real property holding corporation for federal income tax purposes and you held, directly or indirectly, at any time during the five-year period ending on the date of disposition, more than 5% of the shares and you are not eligible for any treaty exemption.

If you are a corporatenon-U.S. holder, “effectively connected” gains that you recognize may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate.

We have not been, are not and do not anticipate becoming a United States real property holding corporation for United States federal income tax purposes.

FATCA Withholding

Pursuant to sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, commonly known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), a 30% withholding tax (“FATCA withholding”) may be imposed on certain payments to you or to certain foreign financial institutions, investment funds and othernon-U.S. persons receiving payments on your behalf if you or such persons fail to comply with certain information reporting requirements. Such payments will include U.S.-source dividends and the gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of stock that can produce U.S.-source dividends. Payments of dividends that you receive in respect of shares could be affected by this withholding if you are subject to the FATCA information reporting requirements and fail to comply with them or if you hold shares through anon-U.S. person (e.g., a foreign bank or broker) that fails to comply with these requirements (even if payments to you would not otherwise have been subject to FATCA withholding). Payments of gross proceeds from a sale or other disposition of shares could also be subject to FATCA withholding unless such disposition occurs before January 1, 2019. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding the relevant U.S. law and other official guidance on FATCA withholding.

Federal Estate Taxes

Shares held by anon-U.S. holder at the time of death will be included in the holder’s gross estate for United States federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

If you are anon-U.S. holder, we and other payors are required to report payments of dividends on IRS Form1042-S even if the payments are exempt from withholding. You are otherwise generally exempt from backup withholding and information reporting requirements with respect to dividend payments and the payment of the proceeds from the sale of shares effected at a United States office of a broker provided that either (i) the payor or broker does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that you are a United States person and you have furnished a valid IRS FormW-8 or other documentation upon which the payor or broker may rely to treat the payments as made to anon-U.S. person or (ii) you otherwise establish an exemption.

-13-


Payment of the proceeds from the sale of shares effected at a foreign office of a broker generally will not be subject to information reporting or backup withholding. However, a sale effected at a foreign office of a broker could be subject to information reporting in the same manner as a sale within the United States (and in certain cases may be subject to backup withholding as well) if (i) the broker has certain connections to the United States, (ii) the proceeds or confirmation are sent to the United States or (iii) the sale has certain other specified connections with the United States. In addition, certain foreign brokers may be required to make. Agents, dealers and underwriters mayreport the amount of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of shares under FATCA if you are presumed to be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us ina United States person.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Item 15.Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Reference is made to Section 2-418145 (“Section 145”) of the Maryland General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify any director made a party to any proceeding against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses, unless it is established that (i) the act or omission of the director was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was a resultState of deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the director actually received an improper personal benefit or (iii) in a criminal proceeding, the director had reasonable cause to believe the act or omission was unlawful. A director may not be indemnified in any proceeding charging improper personal benefit was improperly received and, in a derivative action, there shall not beDelaware (the “DGCL”) which provides for indemnification if a director has been adjudged liable to the corporation. A director or officer of a corporation who has been successful in the defense of any proceeding shall be indemnified against reasonable costs incurred in such defense. Indemnification may not be made unless authorized for a specific proceeding after determination by the board of directors, special legal counsel or the stockholders that indemnification is permissible because the director has met the requisite standard of conduct. Article Seventh of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the "Charter"), provides that the Company shall indemnify (i) its directors and officers whether servingin certain circumstances.

The Company’s certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) contains a provision that is designed to limit the Company or at its request any other entity,directors’ liability to the full extent required or permitted by the Maryland law, including the advance of expenses under the proceduresDGCL and to the full extent permitted by law and (ii) other employees and agents to such extent permitted by law. The foregoing rights of indemnification areany amendments thereto. Specifically, directors will not exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled. The Board of Directors may take such action as is necessary to carry out these indemnification provisions and is expressly empowered to adopt, approve and amend from time to time such By-laws, resolutions or contracts implementing such provisions or such further indemnification arrangements as may be permitted by the Maryland law. Furthermore, no director or officer of the Company shall beheld personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, or an officer, except for liability: (i) for a breach of the duty of loyalty to the extentCompany or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) payment of an improper dividend or improper repurchase of the Company’s stock under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The principal effect of the limitation of liability provision is that exculpation froma stockholder is unable to prosecute an action for monetary damages against a director of the Company unless the stockholder can demonstrate one of the specified bases for liability. This provision, however, does not eliminate or limit director liability is not permittedarising in connection with causes of action brought under the Maryland law as in effect when such breach occurred. No amendmentfederal securities laws. While the Certificate of Incorporation limits the personal liability of directors, it does not eliminate the directors’ duty of care. The inclusion of the Charterlimitation of liability provision in the Certificate of Incorporation may, however, discourage or repealdeter stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for a breach of anytheir fiduciary duties, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited the Company and its stockholders. This provision should not affect the availability of its provisions shall limitequitable remedies such as injunction or eliminaterescission based upon a director’s breach of the limitations on liability provided toduty of care.

The Certificate of Incorporation and the bylaws of the Company also provide that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. II-1 ITEM 16. EXHIBITS.
