In addition, without limitation, subject to the terms of the Shareholders Agreement, the Reporting Persons may engage in discussions with management, the board of directors, and shareholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties or take other actions concerning any extraordinary corporate transaction (including but not limited to a merger, reorganization or liquidation) or the business, operations, assets, strategy, future plans, prospects, corporate structure, board composition, management, capitalization, dividend policy, articles of incorporation, regulations, corporate documents, agreements, de-listing or de-registration of the Issuer.

As of the date of the closing of the Mergers, Simon Brown, an executive of KKR, has been designated by the KKR Investors pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement to serve as an observer on the Issuer’s board of directors.

Except as set forth in this Statement, the Reporting Persons and, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the other individuals named in Item 2 above, have no present plans or proposals which would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D; provided, that, the Reporting Persons may, at any time, review or reconsider their position with respect to the Issuer and reserve the right to develop such plans or proposals.

Shareholders Agreement

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, the Issuer entered into a Shareholders Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2015 (the “Shareholders Agreement”), with Blue Holdings, KKR, Vestar Capital Partners (“Vestar”), Centerview Capital Management LLC (“Centerview Capital”), AlpInvest US Holdings, LLC (“AlpInvest”), and certain of their respective affiliated investment funds including the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor, Centerview Capital, L.P. and certain of its affiliated investment funds (the “Centerview Investors”) and the AlpInvest Investor. Other than with respect to certain specified provisions which became effective as of the date of the Shareholders Agreement, the Shareholders Agreement became effective at the closing of the Mergers, and sets forth certain governance arrangements and contains various provisions relating to, among other things, board observer rights, the acquisition of additional equity interests in the Issuer, prohibitions on taking certain actions relating to the Issuer, transfer restrictions, voting arrangements, and registration rights.

Board Observer Rights, Voting

Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, the KKR Investors (taken together), the Vestar Investor and the Centerview Investors (taken together) will each be entitled to designate one board observer to the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”). The right to designate a board observer will terminate for each of the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor and the Centerview Investors when the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings which are attributable to such group of investors or held directly by such group of investors is less than 50% of the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings initially attributable to such group of investors upon completion of the Mergers.  Until six months after an investor group (i) no longer has the right to designate a board observer or (ii) with respect to the AlpInvest Investor, when the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings attributable to the AlpInvest Investor or held directly by the AlpInvest Investor is less than 50% of the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings initially attributable to the AlpInvest Investor upon completion of the Mergers, such investor or investor group will be required to cause Blue Holdings to vote its shares of Common Stock in favor of the Board’s proposed slate of director nominees.  In addition, each of the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor, the Centerview Investors and the AlpInvest Investor is required to take all reasonably necessary and practicable steps to exercise no more than one vote per share in the event that any of its shares of Common Stock are ever entitled to more than one vote per share pursuant to the Issuer’s Amended Articles of Incorporation. The initial board observers that were designated by the KKR

16

Investors, the Vestar Investor and the Centerview Investors upon completion of the Mergers are Simon Brown, Kevin Mundt, and David Hooper, respectively.

The terms of Blue Holdings GP provides that each of KKR 2006 Fund, Vestar/Blue Investments I, L.P., Centerview Capital, L.P., and the AlpInvest Investor, shall have the ability to direct the vote of the Common Stock held by Blue Holdings and attributable to the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor, the Centerview Investors and the AlpInvest Investor, respectively, through their limited partnership interests in Blue Holdings in respect of all proposals or resolutions that require a stockholder vote (other than as described in the immediately preceding paragraph with respect to the election of directors of the Issuer).  The Common Stock attributable to any other limited partners of Blue Holdings will be voted pro rata in accordance with how each of KKR 2006 Fund, Vestar/Blue Investments I, L.P., Centerview Capital, L.P., and the AlpInvest Investor direct the vote of their respective shares of Common Stock (and if not all such investors so direct the vote, then pro rata in accordance with how the voting investors have so directed the vote).

Standstill

The Shareholders Agreement contains a standstill provision which is effective until (A) in the case of KKR and the KKR Investors, Vestar and the Vestar Investor and Centerview Capital and the Centerview Investors, the later of (1) one year after the applicable investor group no longer has a board observer and (2) the date on which the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings which are attributable to such group of investors or held directly by such group of investors is less than 25% of the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings initially attributable to such group of investors upon completion of the Mergers, (B) in the case of AlpInvest, the date on which the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings which are attributable to the AlpInvest Investor or held directly by the AlpInvest Investor is less than 25% of the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings initially attributable to the AlpInvest Investor upon completion of the Mergers, and (C) with respect to Blue Holdings, the date on which the standstill expires with respect to each investor.  During the time the standstill period is effective, the standstill provision prevents Blue Holdings, KKR and the KKR Investors, Vestar and the Vestar Investors, Centerview Capital and the Centerview Investors and AlpInvest and the AlpInvest Investor from, including other matters and subject to certain exceptions, (i) acquiring or offering to acquire any voting securities of the Issuer or rights to acquire any voting securities of the Issuer, (ii) depositing any voting securities of the Issuer into a trust or similar contract or subjecting any voting securities of the Issuer to any voting or similar arrangement, (iii) entering into or proposing to enter into any merger, recapitalization, restructuring, change in control or other similar extraordinary transaction involving the Issuer, (iv) making or participating in the solicitation of proxies to vote, or knowingly influencing in any manner any person with respect to the voting of, any voting securities of the Issuer, (v) calling a meeting of shareholders of the Issuer or initiating any shareholder proposal for action by shareholders of the Issuer, (vi) forming or joining a “group” within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act, (vii) acting alone or in concert with other to seek to control or influence the management or policies of the Issuer, (viii) publicly disclosing any intention or plan to do any of the foregoing or (ix) advising or assisting or knowingly encouraging, or entering into discussions concerning, any of the foregoing.

Restrictions on Transfer

The Shareholders Agreement generally restricts any transfers of shares of the Common Stock received in the Mergers for 90 days after the closing of the Mergers (the “Restricted Period”), with certain limited exceptions. Following this initial 90-day time period, the shares held by Blue Holdings, the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor, the Centerview Investors and the AlpInvest Investor (in each case to the extent such person holds shares of Common Stock directly) are freely transferable provided that each such holder remains generally prohibited from transferring its shares of the Common Stock to holders of more than 5% of the Common Stock.  In addition, Blue Holdings, the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor and the Centerview Investors (in each case to the extent such person holds shares of Common Stock directly) have been granted certain registration rights (discussed below).

17

Registration Rights

Blue Holdings, the KKR Investors, the Vestar Investor and the Centerview Investors (in each case to the extent such person holds shares of Common Stock directly), with respect to the shares of Common Stock held by such person (“registrable securities”), have certain registration rights after the Restricted Period, including (i) following the filing and effectiveness of an automatic shelf-registration statement registering all of the registrable securities (which the Issuer is obligated to file and keep effective as of the expiration of the Restricted Period in the event that the Issuer is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)), the right to effect unlimited non-marketed underwritten offerings under such shelf or, in the event the Issuer is not a well-known seasoned issuer, the right to request that the Issuer file a shelf registration statement with respect to the registrable securities and effect unlimited non-marketed underwritten offerings under such shelf; (ii) up to five demand registration rights in the event that the Issuer is no longer eligible to use or otherwise ceases to maintain an effective shelf registration statement and rights to cause the Issuer to effect marketed underwritten offerings, in the aggregate; and (iii) piggyback registration rights that allow holders of registrable shares to require that shares of Common Stock owned by such holders be included in certain registration statements filed by the Issuer, in each case subject to certain restrictions and cutback provisions contained in the Shareholders Agreement.  In connection with these registration rights, the Issuer has agreed to effect certain procedural actions, including taking certain actions to properly effect any registration statement or offering and to keep the participating stockholder parties reasonably informed with adequate opportunity to comment and review, as well as enter into customary ancillary agreements.

The limited partners of Blue Holdings have agreed among themselves in the agreements concerning Blue Holdings that KKR 2006 Fund can cause the Issuer to exercise three, and the Vestar Investor can cause the Issuer to exercise two, of the five demand registrations and requests for a marketed underwritten offering that Blue Holdings is entitled to exercise pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement.  In connection with any such exercise, the other limited partners of Blue Holdings will have the right to join such demand or offering with respect to shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings attributable to such limited partner (and its affiliated investment funds), subject to certain cutback provisions.  Additionally, the limited partners of Blue Holdings have agreed among themselves that any of the KKR Investors (upon action of KKR 2006 Fund), the Vestar Investor and the Centerview Investors (upon action of Centerview Capital, L.P.) may cause Blue Holdings to effect non-marketed underwritten offerings and transfers of the Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or in a non-underwritten public offering pursuant to an existing and effective shelf-registration statement, and that the other limited partners of Blue Holdings shall be permitted to participate in any such transfer, with respect to shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings attributable to such limited partner (and its affiliated investment funds), subject to certain cutback provisions.

Termination

The Shareholders Agreement terminates with respect to KKR and the KKR Investors, Vestar and the Vestar Investor and AlpInvest and the AlpInvest Investor on the date that the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings which are attributable to such group of investors or held directly by such group of investors is less than 1% of the Issuer’s outstanding voting power so long as all securities then attributable to such group of investors can be sold in one transaction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and if not, the Shareholders Agreement terminates when that is the case. The Shareholders Agreement terminates with respect to Centerview Capital and the Centerview Investors on the later of the date that the shares of Common Stock held by Blue Holdings which are attributable to the Centerview Investors or held directly by the Centerview Investors is less than 1% of the Issuer’s outstanding voting power or the date on which the Centerview Investors’ right to appoint a board observer terminates so long as all securities then attributable to the Centerview Investors can be sold in one transaction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and if not, the Shareholders Agreement terminates when that is the case.  The Shareholders Agreement terminates with respect to Blue Holdings upon the earlier of (1) the termination of the agreement with respect to each of KKR and the KKR Investors, Vestar and the Vestar Investor, Centerview Capital and the Centerview Investors and AlpInvest and the AlpInvest Investor and (2) the date that Blue Holdings no longer beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock.
