The Company filed a Certificate of Designations with respect to the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 9, 2017 (the “Certificate of Designations”).
Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, the Company may, at its option upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, cause all outstanding Preferred Shares to be automatically converted into the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Conversion Option”).

The conversion and issuance of 4,252,873 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock is expected to occur on April 12, 2017. After the conversion, no Preferred Shares will be outstanding.
