Specifically, (i) Equity Fund VII sold 240,169 shares of Common Stock, (ii) Parallel Fund VII sold 189,503 shares of Common Stock, (iii) Parallel (Cayman) Fund VII sold 253,994 shares of Common Stock, (iv) Executive Fund VII sold 21,052 shares of Common Stock, (v) Fund VII Coinvest sold 36,626 shares of Common Stock, (vi) Equity Fund VII inVentiv sold 1,566,706 shares of Common Stock, (vii) Fund VI 2019 sold 899,437 shares of Common Stock, (viii) Fund VI 2019 Coinvest sold 25,500 shares of Common Stock, (ix) Managers VI sold 529 shares of Common Stock, and (x) Managers VII sold 203 shares of Common Stock in the September 2020 Offering to the Underwriters.  The September 2020 Offering was made pursuant to the Issuer’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-228559), as supplemented by a prospectus supplement, dated September 15, 2020 and filed with the SEC on September 16, 2020 (the “September 2020 Prospectus Supplement”).

 

In connection with the September 2020 Offering, the THL Selling Stockholders entered into customary “lock-up” agreements with the Underwriters, dated September 17, 2020 (the “Lock-up Agreements”) pursuant to which the THL Selling Stockholders generally agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock, for 30-days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the September 2020 Offering without prior written consent from the Underwriters.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Underwriting Agreement and the Lock-up Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.8, and a form of the Lock-up Agreement attached as Annex IV to the Underwriting Agreement, all of which are incorporated by reference herein.

On account of the THL Stockholders’ Agreement (as defined and more fully described in Item 6 of the Schedule 13D), the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
