Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 465,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any (the “Option Shares” and, collectively with the Firm Shares, the “Shares”). All Shares are being sold by the Company. The offering price to the public is $10.00 per Share, and the Underwriters have agreed to purchase the Shares from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $9.4686 per Share. The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and customary conditions to closing, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The Shares will be issued pursuant to a shelf registration statement the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective on March 3, 2014 (File No. 333-193069) (the “Registration Statement”). A prospectus supplement relating to the offering has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The closing of the offering is expected to take place on December 17, 2014, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and such document is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement.

The legal opinion and consent of McDermott Will & Emery LLP relating to the Shares is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1 and such document is incorporated herein by reference.
