Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Item 8.01. Other Events

Prior to and in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of its common stock in November 2010, all of the Company’s executive officers and directors and its majority stockholder entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters of the initial public offering pursuant to which they agreed not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock of the Company, or any options or warrants to purchase any shares of common stock of the Company, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of common stock of the Company, whether then beneficially owned or thereafter acquired, for a period of 180 days after the public offering date, November 18, 2010 (the “Lock-Up Period”), subject to extension under certain circumstances (the “Lock-Up Agreements”). The Lock-Up Agreements provide that if, during the last 17 days of the initial Lock-Up Period, the Company releases earnings results, the Lock-Up Period will be automatically extended until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the date of release of such earnings results. As a result of the announcement today by the Company of its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Lock-Up Period under the Lock-Up Agreements has automatically been extended through the close of business on May 27, 2011, and the stockholders subject to the Lock-Up Agreements will be able to sell their shares starting on May 28, 2011.
