EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 registers additional shares of Common Stock under the Registrant’s 2015 Plan and 2015 ESPP.

The number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 Plan is subject to an automatic annual increase on each January 1, beginning in 2016, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 4.0% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or (ii) such amount as determined by the Administrator (as defined in the 2015 Plan). Accordingly, on January 1, 2017, the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 Plan increased by 1,001,740 shares. This Registration Statement registers these additional 1,001,740 shares of Common Stock. The additional shares are of the same class as other securities relating to the 2015 Plan for which our registration statements filed on Form S-8 (Registration Nos. 333-207835 and 333-211502) on November 5, 2015 and May 20, 2016, respectively, are effective.

The number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 ESPP is subject to an automatic annual increase on each January 1, beginning in 2017, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 256,585 shares of common stock, (ii) 1% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or (iii) an amount determined by the Administrator (as defined in the 2015 ESPP). Accordingly, on January 1, 2017, the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 ESPP increased by 250,435 shares. This Registration Statement registers these additional 250,435 shares of Common Stock. The additional shares are of the same class as other securities relating to the 2015 ESPP for which our registration statement filed on Form S-8 (Registration Nos. 333-207835) on November 5, 2015, is effective.

The information contained in our registration statements on Form S-8 (Registration Nos. 333-207835 and 333-211502) is hereby incorporated by reference pursuant to General Instruction E.
