Investor Verification Checklist

  • Verify the exact aggregate offering price limit, as the source text contains a potential typo ("$25,000,000 million").
  • Confirm the expiration date of the previous shelf registration (February 2, 2024) and ensure all future sales are covered by the new registration statement.
  • Review the full Prospectus Supplement filed on January 19, 2024, for detailed terms of the remaining offering capacity.
