ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

This prospectus supplement is being filed to amend and supplement the information that appears under the caption “Selling Securityholders” in our prospectus dated October 16, 2015, as amended and supplemented by our prospectus supplement dated January 13, 2016. Capitalized terms that are not defined in this prospectus supplement are defined in the prospectus.
 


SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

The table below sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 31, 2016 by certain selling securityholders. The selling securityholders may sell all, some or none of the existing shares of common stock they hold, and therefore we cannot estimate at this time the aggregate number of shares the selling securityholders identified below may offer pursuant to future prospectus supplements or the aggregate number of shares of common stock the selling securityholders may own after completion of any such offering.

The percentages in the table below reflect beneficial ownership as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and are based on 35,234,911 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2016.

Information in the table below, with respect to beneficial ownership, has been furnished by the selling securityholders. The selling securityholders originally acquired the common stock of the Company they hold and that are included in this prospectus pursuant to a private transaction in 2015 conducted according to exemptions from the Securities Act. Unless otherwise indicated, based on the information supplied to us by or on behalf of the selling securityholders, no selling securityholder is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.

To our knowledge, each person named in the table below has sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the securities shown as beneficially owned by such person, except as otherwise set forth in the notes to the table. The number of securities shown represents the number of securities the person “beneficially owns,” as determined by the rules of the SEC. The SEC has defined “beneficial” ownership of a security to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of voting power and/or investment power. A security holder is also deemed to be, as of any date, the beneficial owner of all securities that such security holder has the right to acquire within 60 days after that date through (1) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (2) the conversion of a security, (3) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, or (4) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement.
