Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The Issuer effected a 1-for-8.175 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common and preferred stock on July 14, 2014. Accordingly, unless otherwise noted herein, all share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

Between June 2008 and January 2010, AP VIII purchased from Issuer an aggregate of 733,943 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million, which automatically converted into 733,943 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock (based on a one-for-one conversion ratio) upon the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) on July 29, 2014.

Between July 2010 and November 2012, AP VIII purchased from Issuer an aggregate of 531,843 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million, which automatically converted into 531,843 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock (based on a one-for-one conversion ratio) upon the closing of the IPO.

In October 2013, AP VIII purchased from Issuer an aggregate of 611,620 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million, which automatically converted into 611,620 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock (based on a one-for-one conversion ratio) upon the closing of the Issuer’s IPO.

In connection with the purchase of the Series C convertible preferred stock described above, AP VIII received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 305,810 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Warrants”), with an exercise price of $8.18 per share. Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, AP VIII exercised the Warrants, receiving 305,810 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock, which then immediately converted into an aggregate of 305,810 shares of Common Stock.

On July 24, 2014, AP VIII purchased an aggregate of 299,559 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock (the “IPO Shares”) in the IPO. The purchase price per share of such stock was $12.00. The purchase price paid by AP VIII for all of the shares described in this Item 3 came from the capital contributions of AP VIII’s general and limited partners.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

AP VIII purchased the aforementioned preferred stock and IPO Shares for investment purposes with the aim of increasing the value of its investments and the Issuer.

Except as set forth in Item 6 below, none of the Reporting Persons have a present plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, each of the Reporting Persons reserve the right to propose or participate in future transactions which may result in one or more of such actions, including but not limited to, an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, sale of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or its subsidiaries, or other transactions which might have the effect of causing the Common Stock to become eligible for termination of registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Reporting Persons also retain the right to change their investment intent at any time, to acquire additional shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer from time to time, or to sell or otherwise dispose of all or part of the Common Stock beneficially owned by them (or any shares of Common Stock into which such securities are converted) in any manner permitted by law. The Reporting Persons may engage from time to time in ordinary course transactions with financial institutions with respect to the securities described herein.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) As of the date hereof, AP VIII directly holds 2,482,775 shares of Common Stock, representing 14.9% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock. As the general partner of AP VIII, APM VIII beneficially owns an aggregate of 2,482,775 shares of Common Stock, representing 14.9% of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding. Each of the Managing Directors beneficially owns 2,482,775 shares of Common Stock, representing 14.9% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock. The percentages set forth in this Item 5 are based on the 16,700,073 outstanding shares of Common Stock as of August 1, 2014, as disclosed by the Issuer to the Reporting Persons.

(b) AP VIII has sole voting and dispositive control over 2,482,775 shares of Common Stock. None of the other Reporting Persons owns any securities of the Issuer directly.
