Morgan Securities LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”) and the selling stockholders named therein (the “Selling Stockholders”), relating to the initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 36,250,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of which 28,000,000 are being sold by the Company and 8,250,000 are being sold by the Selling Stockholders, pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-191057), as amended (the “Registration Statement”). The offering price to the public was $20.00 per share, and the Underwriters agreed to purchase the shares from the Company and the Selling Stockholders at a price of $18.90 per share.

The Underwriting Agreement contains certain representations, warranties, covenants and conditions.
