Pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase for cash at least 3,364,486 shares (representing approximately $360 million in value of shares) from Atairos at the Purchase Price (the "Share Repurchase").

Any such repurchases may be on the same terms as, or on terms that are more or less favorable to the selling stockholders in those transactions, than the terms of the Tender Offer. Whether the Company makes additional repurchases will depend on many factors, including its business and financial performance, the business and market conditions at the time, including the price of the shares, and other factors the Company considers relevant.
