LLC, as representatives of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”) to issue and sell 1,335,878 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company in a public offering pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-211437) (the “Registration Statement”) and a related prospectus, including the related prospectus supplement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Common Stock Offering”). In addition, the Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase, for a period of 30 calendar days from March 16, 2017, up to an additional 200,381 shares of Common Stock. The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Common Stock Offering will be approximately $347.4 million, or approximately $399.6 million if the Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase the additional shares of Common Stock, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses.
