Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Stock Purchase Agreement

On December 21, 2016, AT entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which it agreed to purchase from certain funds affiliated with General Atlantic LLC, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, 17,691,312 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a price per share equal to $25.00.  The stock purchase contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase”) closed on February 1, 2017 (the “Closing”).

The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the exhibits thereto does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached here as Exhibit 2.

Stockholder Agreement

In connection with the Stock Purchase, the Company entered into a stockholder agreement (the “Stockholder Agreement”) with AT, dated as of December 21, 2016, which includes the terms described below.

Board Representation.  Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholder Agreement, in connection with the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) increased the size of the Board from nine directors to 10 directors and appointed Michael J. Angelakis, a nominee designated by Atairos, to the Board effective as of the Closing. In addition, the Company has agreed to nominate Mr. Angelakis or another designee of Atairos reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board for election at each of the Company’s annual meetings of stockholders in which directors of the same class are to be elected and to use its reasonable efforts to cause the election of such designee. Atairos’ right to designate a candidate for nomination will terminate when Atairos beneficially owns less than 15% of the outstanding Common Stock. 

Restrictions on Sale.  Atairos has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that until the earlier of: (i) the date that is the second anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the consummation of a change in control or the entry into a definitive agreement that, if consummated, would result in a change in control (the “Restricted Period”), Atairos will not transfer any shares of Common Stock purchased in the Stock Purchase or enter into an agreement that transfers the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock. These restrictions do not apply to, among others, transfers to affiliates and pledges of the Common Stock, or satisfaction of obligations related to the pledged Common Stock, in each case in connection with one or more bona fide financing arrangements.

In addition, Atairos has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that until the date that is 180 days after the date on which an Atairos designee no longer serves on the Board, Atairos will not transfer any shares of Common Stock: (i) resulting in a third party becoming a beneficial owner of 5% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (ii) equal to 4.9% or more of the outstanding Common Stock to any third party or “group” (as defined in the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or (iii) to certain competitors of the Company. These restrictions do not apply to transfers pursuant to a bona fide underwritten public offering or a bona fide sale to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 after the Restricted Period.

Standstill.  Atairos has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that until the later of: (a) the date that is the second anniversary of the Closing and (b) the date that is 180 days after the date on which an Atairos designee no longer serves on the Board, Atairos will not, among other things: (i) acquire any securities of the Company if, immediately after such acquisition, Atairos and its affiliates would own in the aggregate 33% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (ii) propose or seek to effect any tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination involving the Company or its securities, or make any public statement with respect to such transaction, (iii) make, or in any way participate in any “proxy contest” or other solicitation of proxies, (iv) call or seek to call any meeting of stockholders or other referendum or (v) take any action in support of or make any proposal or request that constitutes, among other things: (A) controlling or changing the Board or management of the Company, (B) any material change in the capitalization or dividend policy of the Company or (C) seeking to have the Company waive, amend or modify its certificate of incorporation or bylaws in a manner that may impede or facilitate the acquisition of control of the Company.

DGCL 203 Waiver.  In connection with the foregoing, the Company has taken all actions necessary to exempt Atairos, Atairos’ stock purchase pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement and any acquisitions of Common Stock by Atairos to the extent permitted under the Stockholder Agreement from the restrictions on business combinations of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

The foregoing description of the Stockholder Agreement and the exhibits thereto does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Stockholder Agreement, a copy of which is attached here as Exhibit 3.

Registration Rights Agreement

The Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with AT, dated as of February 1, 2017, pursuant to which the Company has granted Atairos certain demand, “piggyback” and other registration rights upon termination of the Restricted Period.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement and the exhibits thereto does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached here as Exhibit 4.
