The Company and the Guarantors entered into an underwriting agreement dated June 5, 2017 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative of the underwriters named in Schedule I thereof relating to the issuance and sale by the Company and the Guarantors of the Notes and the Guarantees, as applicable.
