Material Changes and Agreements
The Company entered into an Indenture with U.S. Bank National Association as trustee for the issuance of the 0.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023. These notes are senior unsecured obligations. Additionally, the Company entered into Capped Call Transactions with initial purchasers to reduce potential dilution upon conversion and offset cash payments in excess of the principal amount, subject to a cap price.
On May 2, 2018, the Company executed a Second Amendment to its Loan and Security Agreement. This amendment updated definitions for "Permitted Indebtedness" and "Permitted Investments" to accommodate the new notes and capped call transactions, and allowed for payments related to these agreements subject to pro forma compliance with financial covenants.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Conversion Terms: Holders may convert notes prior to November 1, 2022, only under specific circumstances, such as if the stock price exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a defined period, or if the trading price of the notes falls below 98% of the product of the stock price and conversion rate. Full conversion rights are available on or after November 1, 2022.
Redemption: The Company may not redeem the notes prior to May 5, 2021. Redemption is permitted thereafter if the stock price has been at least 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during a 30-day period.
Fundamental Change: If a fundamental change occurs, holders may require the Company to repurchase the notes at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest.
Regulatory Status: The notes and underlying shares were sold pursuant to exemptions from registration under Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Review the full text of the Indenture (Exhibit 4.1) for specific events of default and adjustment mechanisms for the conversion rate.
- Confirm the terms of the Capped Call Transactions (Exhibit 10.1) to understand the specific dilution protection limits.
- Assess the impact of the Second Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (Exhibit 10.2) on existing financial covenants.
- Monitor the Company's stock price relative to the $40.82 conversion price and $62.80 cap price to evaluate conversion likelihood and dilution risk.
