The Company expects that the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq will cease at the close of trading on July 29, 2022, and that trading of its Common Stock on the NYSE will begin at market open on August 1, 2022.

Item 1. Description of Registrant's Securities to be Registered.

The Company hereby incorporates by reference herein the description of its Common Stock to be registered hereunder, as set forth in Exhibit 4.11, Description of Securities, to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Commission on March 2, 2020, except that any reference to the Nasdaq is hereby amended to refer to the NYSE.

Item 2. Exhibits

In accordance with the “Instructions as to Exhibits” with respect to Form 8-A, no exhibits are required to be filed as part of this registration statement because no other securities of the Company are registered on the NYSE and the securities registered hereby are not being registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
