In connection with this offering, underwriters and selling group members may engage in passive market making transactions in the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of common stock and extending through the completion of distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded. Passive market making may cause the price of our common stock to be higher than the price that otherwise would exist in the open market in the absence of those transactions. The underwriters and dealers are not required to engage in passive market making and may end passive market making activities at any time.

#### Electronic Distribution
In connection with the offering, the underwriters or securities dealers may distribute prospectuses by electronic means, such as e-mail.

They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. In that regard, the underwriters or their respective affiliates are acting as lenders under our Credit Agreement. All shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus supplement will be sold by the selling stockholders and we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. Therefore, none of the proceeds from this offering will be used to repay, all or in part, the Credit Agreement.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
