The total purchase price for the 1,011,137 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as of May 31, 2013 was approximately $8,495,355. The source of such funds was the assets of Discovery Equity Partners, including proceeds of margin loans under margin loan facilities maintained in the ordinary course of business by Discovery Equity Partners with a broker on customary terms and conditions.

|
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
The information concerning percentages of ownership set forth below is based on 20,931,827 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 26, 2013 as reported in the Company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2013.

Discovery Group is the sole general partner of Discovery Equity Partners. Messrs. Donoghue and Murphy are the sole managing members of Discovery Group. As a consequence, Discovery Group and Messrs. Donoghue and Murphy may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of all of the shares of Common Stock owned by Discovery Equity Partners.
The transactions in Common Stock effected by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days are set out in Exhibit 1 hereto.
The Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Common Stock on May 23, 2013.
