The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

On the Closing Date, in connection with the Merger, the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee ("U.S. Bank"), entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the "Supplemental Indenture"), to the Indenture, dated as of January 24, 2023, between the Company and U.S. Bank (the "Indenture"), effective upon the effective time of the Merger ("Effective Time"), providing that at and after the Effective Time, each holder of the Company's 5.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the "Convertible Notes") will have the right to convert their respective Convertible Notes into cash in an amount, per $1,000 principal amount of such Convertible Notes being converted, equal to the product of (x) the conversion rate (as defined in the Indenture and including any increase thereto required under the Indenture) and (y) the amount of the Merger Consideration (as defined below), pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

Copies of the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture are attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

In connection with the Merger, each share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Common Stock that were held by the Company as treasury stock or held directly by Parent or Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub) was automatically converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $44.00 per share, without interest, subject to any required withholding of taxes (the "Merger Consideration").

Additionally, at the Effective Time:

• each outstanding award of Company performance-based restricted stock units or service-based restricted stock units, in each case, that was subject solely to service-based vesting conditions immediately prior to the Effective Date (collectively, "Company RSUs"), including any award of Company RSUs that was subject to a deferral election, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive (without interest) an amount in cash (less applicable tax withholdings) equal to (x) the total number of Shares underlying such award of Company RSUs immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration; and

• each outstanding award of Company performance-based restricted stock units that was subject to performance-based vesting conditions immediately prior to the Effective Time ("Company PRSUs"), including any award of Company PRSUs that was subject to a deferral election, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive (without interest) an amount in cash (less applicable tax withholdings) equal to (x) the total number of Shares underlying such Company PRSUs that would become vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time if the Effective Time were the last day of the relevant performance period and the achievement of all relevant performance-based vesting requirements were determined at such time, multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration, with the remaining portion of any such Company PRSUs canceled for no consideration.

There was no outstanding option to purchase shares of Common Stock ("Company Options"), whether vested or unvested, immediately prior to the Effective Time. As such, the provisions of the Merger Agreement governing the treatment of Company Options in the Merger were not applicable to the Merger at the Effective Time.

The rights to indemnification granted hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to indemnification against Liabilities or the advancement of Expenses which a Director or Executive Officer may be entitled under any written agreement, Board of Directors' resolution, vote of shareholders, the FCBA, or otherwise. The Corporation may, but shall not be required to, supplement the foregoing rights to indemnification against Liabilities and advancement of Expenses by the purchase of insurance on behalf of any one or more of its Directors or Executive Officers whether or not the Corporation would be obligated to indemnify or advance Expenses to such Director or Executive Officer under this Article.

The provisions of this Article 6 are intended solely for the benefit of the indemnified parties described herein, their heirs and personal representatives and shall not create any rights in favor of third parties. No amendment to or repeal of this Article 6 shall diminish the rights of indemnification provided for herein prior to such amendment or repeal.

**ARTICLE 7** 

**<u>STOCK CERTIFICATES</u>**

Section 7.1. <u>Stock Certificates.</u> If the Board of Directors determines that shares of stock in the Corporation will be certificated, the Certificates that represent such shares of stock will be in the form determined by the Board of Directors. Certificates will be signed by the President and Secretary of the Corporation. Certificates will be consecutively numbered. The name and address of the person receiving the issued shares, the certificate number, the number of shares, and the date of issue will be recorded by the Secretary of the Corporation in the corporate stock transfer ledger. When the Corporation is authorized to issue shares of more than one class there shall be set forth upon the face or back of the certificate, if such shares are certificated, a full statement of the designations, preferences, limitations, and relative rights of the shares of each class authorized to be issued (or the certificate shall have a statement that the Corporation will furnish such information to any shareholder upon request and without charge). If the Corporation is authorized to issue any preferred or special class in series, the stock certificates will state the variations in the relative rights and preferences between the shares of each such series so far as the same have been fixed and determined and the authority of the Board of Directors to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of subsequent series.

Section 7.2. <u>Signatures</u>. The signatures of the officers upon a certificate may be facsimiles if the certificate is countersigned by a transfer agent, or registered by a registrar, other than the Corporation itself or an employee of the Corporation. If any officer who signs or whose facsimile signature is placed upon a stock certificate ceases to be such officer before the stock certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he or she was that officer at the date of its issue.

------

Section 7.3. <u>Lost Certificates</u>. The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate to be issued in place of any stock certificate previously issued by the Corporation that is alleged to have been lost or destroyed. When authorizing the issue of a new stock certificate, the Board of Directors, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to its issuance, may prescribe any terms and conditions as it deems expedient and may require any indemnities as it deems adequate to protect the Corporation from any claim that may be made against it with respect to any stock certificate alleged to be lost or destroyed.

Section 7.4. <u>Transfer of Shares</u>. Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate representing shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer, a new certificate shall be issued to the person entitled thereto, and the old certificate canceled and the transaction recorded upon the books of the Corporation. If shares are not certificated, such transfers need only be reflected upon the books of the Corporation.

Section 7.5. <u>Registered Shareholders</u>. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends, and to vote as such owner, and to hold liable for calls and assessments a person registered on its books as the owner of shares, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by Florida law.

**ARTICLE 8**
