. As long as the Ares Funds beneficially own a majority of our outstanding common stock, they will be able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of our certificate of incorporation and certain corporate transactions. The registration statement on Form S-3of which this prospectus supplement is a part was filed as a result of the exercise of demand registration rights by the Ares selling stockholders pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement sets forth our obligation to reimburse certain expenses that are incurred by the Ares selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to the sale of the shares of common stock. We will pay all remaining fees, costs and expenses. Subject to the completion of this offering, we intend to purchase from the underwriters 2,258,132 shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to the price per share to be paid by the underwriters to the selling stockholders. See “Concurrent Share Repurchase.” S-17

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS The following is a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to Non-U.S.Holders (as defined herein) with respect to the ownership and disposition of our common stock sold pursuant to this offering. The following discussion is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), U.S. judicial decisions, administrative pronouncements and existing and proposed Treasury regulations, all as in effect as of the date hereof. All of the preceding authorities are subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. We have not requested, and will not request, a ruling from the IRS with respect to any of the U.S. federal income tax consequences described below, and as a result there can be no assurance that the IRS will not disagree with or challenge any of the conclusions we have reached and describe herein. This discussion only addresses beneficial owners of our common stock that hold such common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a Non-U.S.Holder in light of such Non-U.S.Holder’s particular circumstances or that may be applicable to Non-U.S.Holders subject
