Concurrent Common Stock Offering: | Concurrently with this offering of notes, we are offering 4,081,632 shares of our common stock (or 4,693,876 shares of our common stock if the underwriters in that offering exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares) (the “Concurrent Common Stock Offering”) in an underwritten offering pursuant to a separate prospectus supplement and base prospectus (together, the “Common Stock Prospectus”). Neither the completion of this offering nor of the Concurrent Common Stock Offering is contingent on the completion of the other, so it is possible that this offering occurs and the Concurrent Common Stock Offering does not occur, and vice versa. We cannot assure you that the Concurrent Common Stock Offering will be completed on the terms described herein, or at all. This prospectus is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities being offered in the Concurrent Common Stock Offering. | ||||
Underwriting Discounts and Commissions: | $30.00 per note $9,000,000.00 total |
||||
Capped Call Transactions: | In connection with the pricing of the notes, we have entered into capped call transactions (the “capped call transactions”) with one or more of the underwriters and/or their respective affiliates and/or other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the notes and/or offset some or all of any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional notes, we expect to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of such additional notes to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties. In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, we have been advised that the option counterparties or their respective affiliates are expected to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of our common stock or the notes at that time. In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the notes and prior to the maturity of the notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to a conversion of notes or following any repurchase or redemption of the notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the notes, which could affect your ability to convert the notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of notes, it could affect the number of shares and the value of the consideration that you will receive upon conversion of the notes. |

For a discussion of the potential impact of any market or other activity by the option counterparties or their respective affiliates in connection with these capped call transactions, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Notes—The capped call transactions may affect the value of the notes and our common stock” and “Underwriting—Capped Call Transactions” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement. | |||||
Use of Proceeds: |
We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $290.8 million (or approximately $334.5 million if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full), after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering and the Concurrent Common Stock Offering, if completed, for general corporate purposes and to pay the cost of the capped call transactions in an aggregate amount of approximately $25.5 million. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in complementary businesses and technologies, although we have no present commitments or agreements to enter into any material acquisitions or investments. For additional information, see “Use of Proceeds” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

The exact stock prices and effective dates or redemption notice dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:
•If the stock price is between two stock prices in the table or the effective date or redemption notice date, as the case may be, is between two effective dates or redemption notice dates, as applicable, in the table, the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate for the notes will be increased will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock prices and the earlier and later effective dates or redemption notice dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.
•If the stock price is greater than $275.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above as described in the Preliminary Prospectus), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.
•If the stock price is less than $49.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above as described in the Preliminary Prospectus), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of notes exceed 20.4081 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as such conversion rate as set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus under the caption “Description of Notes—Conversion Rights—Conversion Rate Adjustments.”
