    The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock set forth in Item 5 and hold their shares of Common Stock for investment purposes. Subject to a number of factors, including market conditions and their general investment and trading policies, the Reporting Persons may, in the ordinary course of their business, acquire additional shares or dispose of the shares of Common Stock that they beneficially own. These acquisitions or dispositions may occur in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or through other methods. Additionally, the Lead Edge Funds may distribute shares of Common Stock that they directly hold to their respective limited partners, members and/or shareholders, as applicable.


    In connection with the foregoing, and as may be appropriate from time to time, each of the Reporting Persons may consider the feasibility and advisability of various alternative courses of action with respect to the Reporting Persons’ investment in the Issuer, including, without limitation: (a) the acquisition or disposition of Common Stock, including through derivative transactions which may include security-based swaps and short sales; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) changes in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer; (e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) other material changes in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer’s articles of incorporation or bylaws or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing any class of the Issuer’s securities to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) causing a class of equity securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above. Except as described in Item 6 and this Item 4 and any plans or proposals that may from time to time be discussed or considered by the directors of the Issuer, including Evan Skorpen, who is a partner at Lead Edge Capital and a member of the Issuer’s board of directors, in his fiduciary capacity as a director of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons do not currently have any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions specified in clause (a) through (j) of this paragraph.

    The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer from time to time on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s stock in particular, as well as other developments.

The Lead Edge Funds are managed by Lead Edge Capital, and each of Mitchell Green, Nimay Mehta and Brian Neider serve as a managing member of Lead Edge Capital. By virtue of these relationships, each of Lead Edge Capital and Messrs.

Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, the Company agreed to appoint Evan Skorpen to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) as a Class I director with a term expiring at the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders.

    The Cooperation Agreement also provides for certain “standstill” provisions that restricts the Lead Edge Funds and their affiliates from, among other things, acquiring any securities of the Company that would result in the Lead Edge Funds and their affiliates having beneficial ownership of more than 15% of the Company’s voting securities. The standstill provisions expire on the earlier of (i) the date on which Company next elects a slate of Class I directors or (ii) the two-year anniversary of the date of the Cooperation Agreement. The Cooperation Agreement also requires Mr. Skorpen to tender resignation from the Board if the Lead Edge Funds and their affiliates have beneficial ownership of less than 7% of the Company’s voting securities.

    The foregoing summary of the Cooperation Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Cooperation Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
