The information set forth in Items 3, 5 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.

Stockholders Agreement

On October 7, 2016, the TPG Funds entered into a stockholders agreement with the Issuer (the “Stockholders Agreement”), in order to establish various arrangements and restrictions with respect to governance of the Issuer and certain rights with respect to shares of Common stock owned by the TPG Funds.

Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, TPG Pantera designated two of the seven initial members of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. For so long as TPG Pantera, together with its affiliates, beneficially owns at least 2.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, TPG Pantera will have the right to designate a

specified number of directors to the Issuer’s Board of Directors as follows: (i) three directors for ownership above 30%, (ii) two directors for ownership between 5% and 30% and (iii) one director for ownership between 2.5% and 5%. In addition, for so long as TPG Pantera, together with its affiliates, beneficially owns at least 2.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, TPG Pantera will have the right to designate its board designees to the Issuer’s Investment Committee as follows: (i) two of its board designees for ownership of at least 5% and (ii) one of its board designees for ownership of between 2.5% and 5%. Further, for so long as TPG Pantera, together with its affiliates, beneficially owns at least 2.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, TPG Pantera will have the right to have one of its board designees appointed to the Issuer’s Compensation Committee. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, so long as TPG Pantera, together with its affiliates, beneficially owns 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, TPG Pantera will have the right to consent to certain actions and will have a preemptive right to participate in future equity issuances of the Issuer. For so long as TPG Pantera’s designees are appointed to the Investment Committee or the Compensation Committee, each of these committees may only act by majority approval, and the rights and responsibilities of each committee will include certain enumerated matters. During such period, the Issuer’s Board of Directors may not approve such matters without the affirmative approval of the Investment Committee or the Compensation Committee, as applicable.

The Stockholders Agreement also provides the TPG Funds with certain customary registration rights.

Other than as described above, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, without independent verification, any of the persons listed in Schedules I and II hereto, currently has any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)–(j) of Schedule 13D, although the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. As a result of these activities, one or more of the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management or capital structure of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value. Such suggestions or positions may include one or more plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions required to be reported herein, including, without limitation, such matters as acquiring additional securities of the Issuer or disposing of securities of the Issuer; entering into an extraordinary corporate transaction such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; selling or transferring a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; changing the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including changing the number or term of directors or filling any existing vacancies on the board of directors of the Issuer; materially changing the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; materially changing the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; changing the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or taking other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; causing a class of equity securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and taking any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
