Subject to the terms of the Investment Agreement (described in Item 6 below), the Reporting Persons may request or demand a registration statement be filed by the Issuer and be made available and effective so that they may, if they later decide, deliver to the Issuer take-down notices in connection therewith or otherwise to sell Notes and/or shares of Common Stock utilizing such registration statement.
Each Reporting Person, solely in its capacity as a shareholder or other security holder of the Issuer, may engage in communications with one or more other shareholders or other securityholders of the Issuer, one or more officers of the Issuer and/or one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer and/or one or more representatives of the Issuer regarding the Issuer, including but not limited to its operations.

Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
The information contained in rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and the information set forth or incorporated in Items 2, 3 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 5.
(a) (b) By virtue of the relationships among the Reporting Persons described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(5) of the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). As such, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 6,999,992 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, which includes 5,196,232 shares of Common Stock which would be received upon conversion of Notes held by SLP Chicago and 1,803,760 shares of Common Stock which would be received upon conversion of Notes held by Co-Invest, representing in the aggregate approximately 10.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
The percentages of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D are based on (i) the conversion by the Reporting Persons of $294,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes into 6,999,992 shares of Common Stock based on the Conversion Rate (as defined below) as of December 8, 2017 and (ii) 57,901,351 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 3, 2017, as reported in the Issuers Form 10-Q filed with the Commission on November 8, 2017.

(c) Except as set forth in Item 3 to this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons have effected any transaction in the Issuers Common Stock during the past 60 days.
(d) No one other than the Reporting Persons has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any of the securities of the Issuer reported on this Schedule 13D.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
The information set forth or incorporated in Item 3 and Item 4 is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 6.
Indenture
The Issuer issued the Notes pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 8, 2017 (the Indenture), by and between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.75% per annum, payable semiannually in cash and will mature on July 1, 2021, subject to earlier conversion. Under the terms of the Indenture, at the option of a holder of the Notes, the Notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. The initial conversion rate of the Convertible Notes is 23.8095 shares Common Stock (the Conversion Rate), and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock, per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which rate is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. The Conversion Rate is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $42.00 per share of Common Stock. Holders of the Notes may require that the Issuer repurchase all or part of the principal amount of the Notes at a purchase price equal to the principal amount plus the total sum of all remaining scheduled interest payments through the remainder of the term of the Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture). In addition, upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), the Issuer may be required to increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes
11
converted in connection with such a make-whole fundamental change. The Issuer has no right to redeem the Notes prior to maturity. The Indenture includes a restrictive covenant that, subject to specified exceptions and parameters, limits the ability of the Issuer to incur additional debt and includes customary events of default, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes under the Indenture.
Investment Agreement
On November 8, 2017, the Issuer entered into an Investment Agreement (as amended by the Amendment to Investment Agreement, dated December 8, 2017, the Investment Agreement) with an affiliate of SLG pursuant to which SLP Chicago purchased the Notes on December 8, 2017.
Board Representation
As long as SLP Chicago, Co-Invest or their affiliates beneficially own shares of Common Stock (representing at in excess of 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (calculated assuming conversion of the Notes), Silver Lake will maintain the right to nominate two individuals for election to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the Board), at least one of whom will be independent and another of whom will be a managing director, director, officer, senior-level employee or advisor of SLG or certain of its affiliates. As long as SLP Chicago, Co-Invest or their affiliates beneficially own shares of Common Stock representing in excess of 4% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (calculated assuming conversion of the Notes), Silver Lake will maintain the right to nominate one individual for election to the Board, which individual will be a managing director, director, officer, senior-level employee or advisor of SLG or certain of its affiliates. Such rights to nominate a director of the Issuer will terminate upon the Issuers entry into a definitive agreement providing for the merger of the Issuer into any other person constituting a change in control. For so long as Silver Lake has a right to nominate a director, as described above, it will also have the right to designate one board observer to attend meeting of the Board.
Standstill Obligations
Silver Lake is subject to a standstill provision until the later of the date that is six months following such time as Silver Lake no longer has a representative, and no longer has rights to have a representative, on the Board and December 8, 2020 (the Standstill Period). During the Standstill Period, Silver Lake will not, among other things and subject to specified exceptions (a) acquire any securities of the Issuer if, immediately after such acquisition, Silver Lake, together with certain of its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, excluding any shares purchased pursuant to its participation rights described below; (b) participate in any solicitation of proxies; or (c) form, join or participate in any group (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with any persons other than Silver Lakes affiliates with respect to any securities of the Issuer. The Standstill Period will terminate early upon the effective date of a change of control of the Issuer or 90 days after such date that Silver Lake and certain of its affiliates cease to beneficially own any Notes or shares of the Issuers Common Stock (other than as may have been issued to directors for compensation purposes).
Transfer Restrictions
Until December 8, 2018, or earlier upon a change of control of the Issuer, Silver Lake will be restricted from transferring or entering into an agreement that transfers the economic consequences of ownership of the Notes or the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the Notes. These restrictions shall not apply to, among other exceptions, transfers to certain affiliates and transfers or pledges of the Notes, or the satisfaction of obligations related to Pledged Notes (as defined below), in each case in connection with one or more bona fide margin loans.
Participation Rights
Silver Lake has the option to purchase all or a portion of any equity securities, or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for any equity securities, in any proposed offerings by the Issuer until the earlier of (i) June 8, 2019 or (ii) such time as Silver Lake no longer has a representative and no longer has rights to have a representative, on the Board. Silver Lakes option does not apply to equity securities or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for any equity securities issued in connection with, among other things, certain acquisitions, underwritten public offerings, strategic partnerships or commercial arrangements, or equity compensation plans.
12
Registration Rights
Silver Lake is also entitled to certain registration rights in respect of the Notes, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and other shares of Common Stock purchased by it after the effective date of the Investment Agreement while it or its affiliates hold other registerable securities; provided, that such registration rights will cease upon the earliest of (a) when such securities have been disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144, (b) upon the later of the date (i) in the case of such securities held by Silver Lake, no Silver Lake designee is on the Board and (ii) the holder thereof beneficially owns less than (x) one percent of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of such time and such securities are freely transferable under Rule 144 (and, in the case of the Notes, such securities may be represented by an Unrestricted Global Security (as defined in the Indenture) when sold) and (y) $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes (subject to certain exceptions), or (c) when such securities cease to be outstanding.
Subject to qualifying therefor, the Issuer will file an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and use reasonable efforts to keep such registration statement to be continuously effective until the earliest of (i) the date on which all registrable securities covered by the Issuers registration statement have been sold pursuant to the Investment Agreement and (ii) there otherwise cease to be any registerable securities. If a holder of registerable securities notifies the Issuer of its intent to sell at least $25,000,000 of registrable securities pursuant to the Issuers registration statement, the Issuer is obligated, among other things, to amend or supplement the registration statement as necessary to enable the sale of such securities in an underwritten offering. However, the Issuer is not required to amend, supplement or file a registration statement during any Blackout Period (as defined in the Investment Agreement). The Issuer may not call a Blackout Period more than twice in any period of 12 consecutive months and the aggregate length of Blackout Periods in any period of 12 consecutive months may not exceed 90 days.
The Issuer will bear the expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to the Investment Agreement, and each holder of registrable securities participating in an offering will bear the expenses relating to applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, agency fees, brokers commissions and transfer taxes, if any, and similar charges.
