Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information

We use non-GAAP performance measures to evaluate the underlying operations of our business. Due to our acquisitive nature, there are a number of acquisition and restructuring related expenses included in GAAP measures that we believe distort the economic value of our organization and we believe that many investors use this non-GAAP information when assessing the financial performance of companies in the investment management industry. We have included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to assess the operating performance of our company. The non-GAAP measures we report are Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income.

Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures at other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify these measures.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

WestEnd Advisors Acquisition

On November 4, 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to purchase 100% of the equity interests of WestEnd Advisors, LLC (“WestEnd”), on the terms and subject to the conditions in that agreement. Founded in 2004, and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, WestEnd provides financial advisors with a turnkey, core model allocation strategy for either a holistic solution or complementary source of alpha. With approximately $18 billion in assets as of September 30, 2021, the firm offers four primary ETF strategies and one large cap core strategy, all in tax efficient Separately Managed Account (SMA) structures. WestEnd would become our 12th Investment Franchise.

The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Company is (i) $480 million in cash, payable at the closing of the WestEnd acquisition and (ii) contingent earn-out payments based on the net revenue of the WestEnd business during each of the first four years following the closing, subject to certain “catch-up” provisions over the five-and-one-half year period following the closing. A maximum of $320 million ($80 million per year) in earn-out payments may be paid. The purchase price is subject to adjustments based on the level of client consents received, net working capital, debt, cash and unpaid transaction expenses. The WestEnd acquisition is expected to close by the end of 2021, and is subject to customary approvals, conditions and consents.

In connection with entering into the WestEnd purchase agreement, we secured commitments for a $505.0 million senior secured incremental first lien term loan B facility. The availability of the incremental facility is subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions precedent. Neither the closing of the incremental facility, nor the receipt of any other financing, is a condition to the WestEnd acquisition. As of

TABLE OF CONTENTS

September 30, 2021, the Company had $646.2 million of outstanding terms loans under its existing credit agreement. On a pro forma basis, assuming the incurrence of the indebtedness in connection with the WestEnd acquisition, the Company would have had $1.2 billion of outstanding term loans as of September 30, 2021.

New Energy Capital Acquisition

On November 1, 2021, we completed our previously announced acquisition of New Energy Capital Partners (“NEC”). Founded in 2004 and based in Hanover, New Hampshire, NEC is an alternative asset management firm focused on debt and equity investments in clean energy infrastructure projects and companies.

Proposed Elimination of Dual-Class Share Structure

On September 27, 2021, we announced that our board of directors approved amendments to our corporate charter and bylaws to eliminate our dual-class share structure. The charter amendment proposal is subject to stockholder approval at a Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on November 19, 2021.

Currently, we have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The rights of the holders of Class A and Class B shares are identical, except for voting and conversion rights. Each Class A share is entitled to one vote, and each Class B share is entitled to ten votes. Each Class B share is currently convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into one Class A share.

Crestview GP, the RCP Entities and the Company’s employee shareholders committee, who collectively have stock ownership with sufficient voting power to control the outcome of voting for the proposal, intend to vote in favor of the charter amendment proposal. Upon approval of the charter amendment, each Class B share would convert into one Class A share, and the Company would have a single class of common stock. As of October 31, 2021, we had 16,337,956 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 51,764,082 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. On a pro forma basis assuming the elimination of the dual-class share structure, we would have had 68,102,038 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 0 shares of Class B common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2021.

Increased Quarterly Cash-Dividend

On November 4, 2021, our board of directors declared an increase in our quarterly cash dividend, which was raised to $0.17 per share from $0.15 per share in the prior quarter. The dividend is payable on December 27, 2021, to stockholders of record on December 10, 2021.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Class A common stock involves risks. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below as well as those contained under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, as revised or supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC since the filing of our Annual Report, all of which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. These risks could materially affect our business, results of operations or financial condition and cause the trading price of our Class A common stock to decline. You could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of Our Class A Common Stock

Prior to this offering, a relatively large percentage of our common stock has been concentrated with a small number of stockholders, and following this offering, a substantial portion may continue to be concentrated with a small number of stockholders. This concentration could increase the volatility in our stock trading and affect our share price.

Prior to this offering, a large percentage of our common stock has been held by a limited number of stockholders. Following this offering, a substantial portion may continue to be concentrated with a small number of stockholders. If our larger stockholders liquidate their positions, including as a result of this offering, it could cause significant fluctuation in the share price of our common stock. Public companies with a relatively concentrated level of institutional stockholders, such as we have, often have difficulty generating trading volume in their stock, which may increase the volatility in the price of our common stock.

The market price of our Class A common stock is likely to be volatile and could decline, and you may not be able to resell shares of our Class A common stock at or above the price you paid or at all, and you could lose all or part of your investment as a result.

The stock market in general has been highly volatile, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the price paid in this offering, in response to a number of factors such as those listed in “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report and incorporated herein by reference and the following, most of which we cannot control:

•

our operating and financial performance and prospects and the performance of other similar companies;

•

our quarterly or annual earnings or those of other companies in our industry;

•

conditions that impact demand for our products and services;

•

the public’s reaction to our press releases, financial guidance and other public announcements, and filings with the SEC;

•

changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities or research analysts who track our Class A common stock;

•

market and industry perception of our level of success in pursuing our growth strategy;

•

strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;

•

changes in government and other regulations; changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

•

departure of key personnel;

•

the number of shares publicly traded;

•

sales of Class A common stock by us, our investors or members of our management team; and

•

changes in general market, economic and political conditions in the U.S. and global economies or financial markets, including those resulting from natural disasters, telecommunications failures, cyber-attacks, civil unrest in various parts of the world, acts of war, terrorist attacks or other catastrophic events.

S-9

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Any of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the trading volume and market price of our Class A common stock.

Following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, stockholders often file securities class-action lawsuits against such company. Our involvement in a class-action lawsuit could divert our senior management’s attention and, if adversely determined, could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to continue pay regular dividends is subject to our board’s discretion and Delaware law.

We intend to continue to pay dividends to holders of our common stock as described in “Dividend Policy.” Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, change the amount or frequency of dividends or discontinue the payment of dividends entirely. In making decisions regarding our quarterly dividends, we consider general economic and business conditions, our strategic plans and prospects, our businesses and investment opportunities, our financial condition and operating results, working capital requirements and anticipated cash needs, contractual restrictions (including under the terms of our credit agreement) and legal, tax, regulatory and such other factors as we may deem relevant.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish misleading or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our Class A common stock relies in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If there is no coverage of us by securities or industry analysts, the trading price for our shares could be negatively impacted. In the event we obtain securities or industry analyst coverage and if one or more of these analysts downgrades our shares or publishes misleading or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our shares could decrease, which could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

Future sales, or the perception of future sales, by us or our existing stockholders in the public market following this offering could cause the market price for our Class A common stock to decline.

After this offering, the sale of shares of our Class A common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could harm the prevailing market price of shares of our Class A common stock. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.

After this offering, sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, which could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to decline.

In the future, we may issue additional shares of common stock or other equity or debt securities convertible into common stock in connection with a financing, acquisition or employee arrangement, or in certain other circumstances. Any of these issuances could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause the trading price of our Class A common stock to decline.

Provisions in our charter documents could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable.

Certain provisions in our governing documents could make a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving us difficult, even if such events would be beneficial to the interests of our stockholders. Among other things, these provisions:

•

permit our board of directors to establish the number of directors and fill any vacancies and newly created directorships;

•

authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that our board of directors could use to implement a shareholder rights plan;

•

provide that our board of directors is expressly authorized to amend or repeal any provision of our bylaws;

S-10

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

restrict the forum for certain litigation against us to Delaware;

•

establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at annual shareholder meetings;

•

establish a classified board of directors with three classes of directors and the removal of directors only for cause;

•

require that actions to be taken by our stockholders be taken only at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders, and not by written consent, once Crestview GP owns 50% or less of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock;

•

establish certain limitations on convening special shareholder meetings; and

•

restrict business combinations with interested stockholders.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is the exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty, any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws or any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This choice of forum provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees and may discourage these types of lawsuits.

We are an “emerging growth company,” and any decision on our part to comply with certain reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Start-ups Act, or the JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012, and, for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies, including, but not limited to, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation (including Chief Executive Officer pay ratio disclosure) in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As an emerging growth company, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. As a result, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies.

We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information provided by other public companies. We could remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues are at least $1.07 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if, among other things, the market value of our common equity securities held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt securities during the preceding three-year period. Our 2019 acquisition of USAA Investments could accelerate the timing of when we cease to be an emerging growth company to a period shorter than the fifth anniversary of our IPO. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting, investors could lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. Any decision on our part to comply with certain reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our Class A common stock less attractive to investors.

We cannot predict whether investors will find our Class A common stock less attractive if we choose to rely on one or more of the exemptions described above. If investors find our Class A common stock less attractive as a result of any decisions to reduce future disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our Class A common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and stock price.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related SEC rules require that we perform an annual management assessment of the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our assessment concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time in future periods. Accordingly, we cannot assure that we will be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal control is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and is important to help prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our Class A common stock could drop significantly.

Future offerings of debt or equity securities may rank senior to our Class A common stock.

If we decide to issue debt securities in the future, which would rank senior to shares of our common stock, it is likely that they will be governed by an indenture or other instrument containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility. We and, indirectly, our stockholders will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. We may also issue preferred equity, which will have superior rights relative to our common stock, including with respect to voting and liquidation.

Furthermore, if our future access to public markets is limited or our performance decreases, we may need to carry out a private placement or public offering of our Class A common stock at a lower price than the price at which investors purchased their shares.

Because our decision to issue debt, preferred or other equity or equity-linked securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, holders of our Class A common stock will bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our Class A common stock and diluting the value of their shareholdings in us.

Crestview GP will continue to have significant influence on us following the offering, and its interests may conflict with ours or other stockholders’ in the future.

Following this offering but prior to the conversion of the Class B common stock to Class A common stock as a result of the proposed elimination of our dual-class structure, Crestview GP will beneficially own 47.2% of our common stock through its beneficial ownership of our Class B common stock and 64.5% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock and unvested restricted stock (assuming no exercise of the underwriters' option). Following the closing of this offering and the conversion of the Class B common stock to Class A common stock (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option and that the proposal to eliminate our dual-class structure is approved at the Special Meeting), Crestview GP will beneficially own 47.2% of our common stock and total voting power of our outstanding common stock and unvested restricted stock. As a result, Crestview GP will continue to have significant influence over the election of the members of our board of directors and thereby significant influence over our policies and operations, including the appointment of management, future issuances of our common stock or other securities, the payment of dividends, if any, on our common stock (including the Class A common

S-12

TABLE OF CONTENTS

stock), the incurrence of debt by us, amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, and the entering into of extraordinary transactions. Crestview GP will also have significant influence over the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval, including a change in control of us or a change in the composition of our board of directors. This concentration of voting power could deprive other stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for shares of their Class A common stock as part of a sale of us and ultimately might affect the market price of our Class A common stock. Further, the interests of Crestview GP may not in all cases be aligned with other stockholders’ interests.

In addition, Crestview GP may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in its judgment, could enhance its investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to other stockholders. For example, Crestview GP could cause us to make acquisitions that increase our indebtedness or cause us to sell revenue-generating assets. Crestview GP is in the business of making investments in companies and may from time to time acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that none of Crestview GP or Reverence Capital or any of their respective affiliates will have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same business activities or similar business activities or lines of business in which we operate. Crestview GP or Reverence Capital also may pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us, which could have an adverse effect on our growth prospects.

DIVIDEND POLICY

In 2019, the Company announced the initiation of quarterly cash dividends and paid its first quarterly dividend in September of that year. During 2021, the Company’s board of directors authorized three increases in the quarterly cash dividend. On November 4, 2021, the Company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share, which is to be payable on December 27, 2021 to stockholders of record on December 10, 2021.

Holders of restricted stock awards on the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock that are unvested at the time quarterly dividends are declared are entitled to be paid these dividends as and when the restricted stock vests. Potential future dividend payments will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon then-existing conditions, including capital requirements to execute our growth strategy, results of operations, financial condition, projected cash flow, and terms associated with our current credit facility or any future financing.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The following table sets forth information with respect to the current beneficial ownership of the selling stockholders, the number of shares of Class A common stock being offered hereby by the selling stockholders and information with respect to shares to be beneficially owned by the selling stockholders after completion of this offering.

The number of shares and percentages of beneficial ownership set forth below are based on beneficial ownership as of October 31, 2021 and are based on the number of shares of our Class A common stock issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2021. The number of shares and percentages of beneficial ownership after this offering set forth below assume the selling stockholders sell the number of shares set forth in the table below.

To our knowledge, each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the securities shown as beneficially owned by such person, except as otherwise set forth in the notes to the table. The number of securities shown represents the number of securities the person “beneficially owns,” as determined by the rules of the SEC. The SEC has defined “beneficial” ownership of a security to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of voting power and/or investment power. A security holder is also deemed to be, as of any date, the beneficial owner of all securities that such security holder has the right to acquire within 60 days after that date through (1) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (2) the conversion of a security, (3) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, or (4) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. These shares, and shares of unvested restricted stock (which have voting rights but are subject to future vesting based on time or performance criteria), are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such securities for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership and voting of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership or voting of any other person.

All shares presently held are shares of Class B common stock. Each share of Class B common stock is convertible, at any time at the option of the holder, into one share of Class A common stock. Percentage of total voting power represents voting power with respect to all shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, as a single class, calculated on the basis of beneficial ownership. Each holder of Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share of Class B common stock and each holder of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share of Class A common stock. The Class A common stock and Class B common stock vote together as a single class on all matters unless otherwise required by our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws. Each share of Class B common stock converts automatically into one share of Class A common stock automatically upon transfer, subject to certain exceptions. Each share of Class B Common Stock will convert automatically into a share of Class A Common Stock on the date on which the number of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock represents less than 10% of the aggregate combined number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. On September 27, 2021, the Company announced that its board of directors approved amendments to its corporate charter and bylaws to eliminate the Company’s dual-class share structure. The charter amendment is subject to shareholder approval at a Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on November 19, 2021. See “Recent Developments—Proposed Elimination of Dual-Class Share Structure.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME AND
ESTATE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS

The following is a summary of certain United States federal income and estate tax consequences to a non-U.S. holder (as defined below) of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Class A common stock sold pursuant to this offering.

A “non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our Class A common stock (other than an entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) that is not for United States federal income tax purposes any of the following:

•

an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

•

a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•

an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

•

a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

This summary is based upon provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof. Those authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations, and any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth in this summary. This summary does not address all aspects of United States federal income and estate taxes and does not deal with non-U.S., state, local or other tax considerations that may be relevant to non-U.S. holders in light of their particular circumstances. This discussion also does not address any tax consequences arising under the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. Except where noted, this summary deals only with Class A common stock that is held as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). In addition, it does not address all United States federal income tax consequences relevant to a non-U.S. holder subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws (including United States expatriates, certain qualified foreign pension funds, “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies” or partnerships or other pass-through entities for United States federal income tax purposes). We cannot assure you that a change in law will not alter significantly the tax considerations that we describe in this summary.

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) holds our Class A common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner, activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our Class A common stock, you should consult your tax advisors.

If you are considering the purchase of our Class A common stock, you should consult your own tax advisors concerning the particular United States federal income and estate tax consequences to you of the ownership of the Class A common stock, as well as the consequences to you arising under other United States federal tax laws and the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction or any applicable income tax treaty.

Dividends

As described in the section entitled “Dividend Policy,” we intend to pay dividends to holders of our Class A common stock on a quarterly basis. Such distributions will constitute dividends for United States federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under United States federal income tax principles. Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder of our Class A common stock generally will be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. However, dividends that

S-20

TABLE OF CONTENTS

are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a United States permanent establishment) are not subject to the withholding tax, provided certain certification and disclosure requirements are satisfied. Instead, such dividends are subject to United States federal income tax on a net income basis in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a United States person as defined under the Code. A non-U.S. holder that is a corporation may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected dividends, as adjusted for certain items.

A non-U.S. holder of our Class A common stock who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate and avoid backup withholding, as discussed below, for dividends will be required (a) to complete an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) and certify under penalty of perjury that such non-U.S. holder is not a United States person as defined under the Code and is eligible for treaty benefits or (b) if our Class A common stock is held through certain foreign intermediaries, to satisfy the relevant certification requirements of applicable United States Treasury regulations. Special certification and other requirements apply to certain non-U.S. holders that are pass-through entities rather than corporations or individuals.

A non-U.S. holder of our Class A common stock eligible for a reduced rate of United States federal withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS

Gain on Disposition of Class A Common Stock

Subject to the discussion of backup withholding and FATCA below, any gain realized by a non-U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of our Class A common stock generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax unless:

•

the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business of the non-U.S. holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment of the non-U.S. holder);

•

the non-U.S. holder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of that disposition, and certain other conditions are met; or

•

we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” (“USRPHC”) for United States federal income tax purposes, and certain other conditions are met.

A non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point immediately above generally will be subject to tax on its net gain derived from the sale or other disposition in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a United States person as defined under the Code. In addition, if a non-U.S. holder that is a foreign corporation falls under the first bullet point immediately above, the gain realized by such non-U.S. holder may be subject to the branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) of its effectively connected earnings and profits, subject to adjustments.

An individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point immediately above will be subject to a flat 30% tax (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition, which may be offset by United States-source capital losses (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided the non-U.S. holder has timely filed United States federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

With respect to the third bullet point immediately above, we believe we are not and do not anticipate becoming a USRPHC for United States federal income tax purposes.

Federal Estate Tax

Class A common stock held by an individual non-U.S. holder at the time of death will be included in such non-U.S. holder’s gross estate for United States federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.

S-21

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Information reporting generally will apply to the amount of dividends paid to each non-U.S. holder and the tax withheld with respect to such dividends, regardless of whether withholding was required. Copies of the information returns reporting such dividends and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.

A non-U.S. holder will be subject to backup withholding for dividends paid to such non-U.S. holder unless it certifies under penalty of perjury that it is not a United States person as defined under the Code (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such non-U.S. holder is a United States person as defined under the Code), or such non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

Proceeds of a disposition of our Class A common stock conducted through a non-United States office of a non-United States broker generally will not be subject to information reporting or backup withholding. However, information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding will apply to the proceeds of a sale or other disposition of our Class A common stock made within the United States or conducted through certain United States-related financial intermediaries, unless the beneficial owner certifies under penalty of perjury that it is not a United States person as defined under the Code (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a United States person as defined under the Code), or such owner otherwise establishes an exemption.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a non-U.S. holder’s United States federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Requirements

Under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or “FATCA”), a 30% United States federal withholding tax may apply to any dividends paid on our Class A common stock and, the gross proceeds from such sale or other disposition, in each case paid to (i) a “foreign financial institution” (as specifically defined in the Code) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) its compliance (or deemed compliance) with FATCA (which may alternatively be in the form of compliance with an intergovernmental agreement with the United States) in a manner which avoids withholding, or (ii) a “non-financial foreign entity” (as specifically defined in the Code) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W-8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) adequate information regarding certain substantial United States beneficial owners of such entity (if any). If a dividend payment is both subject to withholding under FATCA and subject to the withholding tax discussed above under “—Dividends,” the withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding these requirements and whether they may be relevant to your ownership and disposition of our Class A common stock.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, the underwriters have agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase all of the shares sold under the underwriting agreement if any of these shares are purchased. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

We and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The underwriters are offering the shares, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel, including the validity of the shares, and other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriters of officer’s certificates and legal opinions. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

Commissions and Discounts

The representatives have advised us and the selling stockholders that the underwriters propose initially to offer the shares to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and to dealers at that price less a concession not in excess of $0.81600 per share. After the initial offering, the public offering price, concession or any other term of the offering may be changed.

The following table shows the public offering price, underwriting discount and proceeds before expenses to the selling stockholders. The information assumes either no exercise or full exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares.

Public offering price		$	34.00		$	136,000,000		$	156,400,000
Underwriting discount		$	1.36		$	5,440,000		$	6,256,000

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The expenses of the offering, not including the underwriting discount, are estimated at $0.7 million and are payable by us. The underwriters have agreed to reimburse the selling stockholders for certain out-of-pocket and other expenses related to this offering.

Option to Purchase Additional Shares

The selling stockholders have granted an option to the underwriters, exercisable for 30 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, to purchase up to 600,000 additional shares at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount, from the selling stockholders. If the underwriters exercise this option, each will be obligated, subject to conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, to purchase a number of additional shares proportionate to that underwriter’s initial amount reflected in the above table.

No Sales of Similar Securities

We, our executive officers, directors and selling stockholders have agreed with the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, exercisable for, or repayable with common stock, for 60 days after the date of this prospectus supplement (the “lock-up period”), without first obtaining the written consent of the representatives of the underwriters. Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed, with certain limited exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:

•

offer, pledge, sell or contract to sell any common stock,

•

sell any option or contract to purchase any common stock,

•

purchase any option or contract to sell any common stock,

•

grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any common stock,

•

otherwise dispose of or transfer any common stock,

•

file, request or demand that we file, a registration statement related to the common stock, or

•

enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequence of ownership of any common stock whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise.

This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, or repayable with, common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement (subject to certain exceptions for shares acquired on the open market) or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition other than a sale by the selling stockholders pursuant to this offering (collectively, the “lock-up securities”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the lock-up party may transfer the lock-up securities without the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters, provided that (1) the representatives receive a signed lock-up agreement for the balance of the lockup period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be except for an aggregate of $2.3 million of common stock owned by Crestview Victory, L.P., which may be donated to charitable organizations without the need for the representatives of the underwriters to receive such a lock-up agreement, (2) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (3) such transfers are not required to be reported with the SEC on Form 4 in accordance with Section 16 of the Exchange Act, except for a Form 4 to be filed substantially concurrently with this offering to reflect the transfer of approximately 765,000 shares of common stock pursuant to subsection (3) below and (4) the lock-up party does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such transfers:

(1) as a bona fide gift, including gifts to charitable organizations (including family foundations), or gifts for bona fide estate planning purposes;

(2) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the lock-up party or the immediate family of the lock-up party (for purposes hereof, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin);

S-24

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(3) as a distribution to limited partners, members, stockholders or other equityholders or to the estate of any such limited partners, members, stockholders or other equityholders of the lock-up party;

(4) to the lock-up party’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the lock-up party; or

(5) by will, other testamentary document or intestate succession to the legal representative, heir, beneficiary or a member of the immediate family of the lock-up party.

Furthermore, the lock-up party may sell shares of common stock of the Company purchased by the lock-up party on the open market following this offering if and only if (i) such sales are not required to be reported in any public report or filing with the SEC, or otherwise and (ii) the lock-up party does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such sales.

Furthermore, notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by the lock-up agreement, the lock-up party may, without the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters:

(i) exercise an option to purchase shares of common stock granted under any stock incentive plan or stock purchase plan of the company; provided, that any shares of common stock received by the lock-up party upon such exercise shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the lock-up agreement, and provided, further, that (a) the filing relates to the circumstances described in this clause (i), (b) no shares were sold by the reporting person and (c) the shares received upon exercise of the option are subject to a lock-up agreement with the underwriters of the representatives;

(ii) transfer the lock-up party’s common stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock to the Company pursuant to any contractual arrangement in effect on the date of the lock-up agreement that provides for the repurchase of the lock-up party’s common stock or such other securities by the Company or in connection with the termination of the lock-up party’s employment with the Company;

(iii) transfer the lock-up party’s common stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or any restricted stock to the Company in connection with a vesting event of the Company’s securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase the Company’s securities, in each case with respect to securities granted pursuant to Company incentive plans described in the registration statement, on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax withholding obligations of the lock-up party in connection with such vesting or exercise, provided that the underlying shares shall continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the lock-up agreement;

(iv) establish a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of common stock; provided, that such plan does not provide for any transfers of common stock, and no filing with the SEC or other public announcement shall be required or voluntarily made by the lock-up party or any other person in connection therewith, in each case during the lock-up period;

(v) convert Class B common stock to Class A common stock in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, provided, that, any such shares of common stock received upon such conversion shall remain subject to the provisions of the lock-up agreement or the conversion contemplated by the proposed amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be voted upon at a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders; and

(vi) by operation of law pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement or any other court order, provided, that, no filing under the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be voluntarily made by the lock-up party or any other person in connection therewith, in each case during the lock-up period and, if the lock-up party is required to file a report under Section 16 of the Exchange Act during the lock-up period, the lock-up party shall include a statement in such report to the effect that such transfer is to the Company by operation of law pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement or any other court order, as the case may be.

Listing

Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “VCTR.”

Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids

Until the distribution of the shares is completed, SEC rules may limit underwriters and selling group members from bidding for and purchasing our common stock. However, the representatives may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the common stock, such as bids or purchases to peg, fix or maintain that price.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in the offering. “Covered” short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares described above. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the option granted to them. “Naked” short sales are sales in excess of such option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of shares of common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the other underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. The underwriters may conduct these transactions on Nasdaq, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representatives will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Passive Market Making

In connection with this offering, underwriters and selling group members may engage in passive market making transactions in the common stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of common stock and extending through the completion of distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded. Passive market making may cause the price of our common stock to be higher than the price that otherwise would exist in the open market in the absence of those transactions. The underwriters and dealers are not required to engage in passive market making and may end passive market making activities at any time.

They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates.

ABOUT VICTORY

We are a diversified global asset management firm with $164.9 billion in AUM as of August 31, 2021. We operate a next-generation business model combining boutique investment qualities with the benefits of a fully integrated, centralized operating and distribution platform.

We provide specialized investment strategies to institutions, intermediaries, retirement platforms and individual investors. With ten autonomous Investment Franchises and a Solutions Platform, we offer a wide array of investment styles and investment vehicles including, actively managed mutual funds, separately managed accounts, rules-based and active ETFs, multi-asset class strategies, custom-designed solutions and a 529 College Savings Plan. As of August 31, 2021, our Franchises and our Solutions Platform collectively managed a diversified set of 124 investment strategies for a wide range of institutional and retail clients and direct investors.

Our Franchises are operationally integrated but are separately branded and make investment decisions independently from one another within guidelines established by their respective investment mandates that we monitor. Our integrated model creates a supportive environment in which our investment professionals, for the most part, are unencumbered by administrative and operational responsibilities and can focus on their pursuit of investment excellence.

Our Solutions Platform consists of multi-Franchise and customized solutions strategies that are primarily thematic or rules-based. We offer our Solutions Platform through a variety of vehicles, including separate accounts, mutual funds, unified managed account (“UMA”) products, and VictoryShares which is our ETF brand. Like our Franchises, our Solutions Platform is operationally integrated and supported by our centralized distribution, marketing and operational support functions.

Our centralized key functions include distribution, marketing, trading, middle- and back-office administration, technology, legal, human resources, compliance and finance. Our integrated model aims to “centralize, not standardize”. We believe by providing our Franchises with control over their selection of, and everyday use of, portfolio management tools, risk analytics and other investment-related functions, we minimize disruptions to their investment process and ensure that they are able to invest in the fashion that they find most optimal.

We have grown our AUM from $17.9 billion following the management-led buyout with Crestview GP in August 2013 to $164.9 billion at August 31, 2021. We attribute this growth to our success in sourcing acquisitions and evolving them into organic growers, generating strong investment returns, and developing retail and institutional distribution channels with deep penetration.

Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in February 2013, for the purpose of acquiring VCM and VCS from KeyCorp, which occurred on August 1, 2013. VCM was previously a subsidiary of KeyCorp. Originally founded as Cleveland Trust in 1894, it was ultimately rebranded as VCM in 2001, and served as the investment management division of KeyCorp.

Our principal business office is located at 15935 La Cantera Parkway, San Antonio, TX 78256. Our website address is www.ir.vcm.com. We do not incorporate the information contained on, or accessible through, our corporate website into this prospectus, and you should not consider it to be part of this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Class A common stock involves a high degree of risk. Please see the risk factors under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, as revised or supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC since the filing of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, all of which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business operations.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders. Net proceeds from the sale of the shares of Class A common stock will be received by the selling stockholders. See “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution.”

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time by the selling stockholders named below of up to 44,973,804 shares of our Class A common stock.

We do not know when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares covered by this prospectus. Because the selling stockholders may not sell or otherwise dispose of some or all of the shares covered by this prospectus and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale or other disposition of any of the shares, we cannot estimate the number of shares that will be held by the selling stockholders after the completion of any offering. If we provide a prospectus supplement in connection with any offering of shares by any selling stockholder, such prospectus supplement will set forth the beneficial ownership of such selling stockholder upon the completion of such offering.

The following table sets forth information with respect to the current beneficial ownership of each selling stockholder and the number of shares of Class A common stock each selling stockholder may sell pursuant to this prospectus. For purposes of the table below, we have assumed the selling stockholders will sell all of the shares covered by this prospectus in one or more offerings. The percentages of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders set forth in the table reflect beneficial ownership as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and are based on 16,160,988 shares of our Class A common stock and 51,893,903 shares of our Class B common stock issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2021.

•

•

directly to agents;

•

to or through brokers or dealers;

•

to the public through underwriting syndicates led by one or more managing underwriters;

•

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise, or through the writing of other securities or contracts to be settled in such securities;

•

settlement of short sales entered into after the date of this prospectus;

•

privately negotiated transactions;

•

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

•

“at the market” or through market makers or into an existing market for the securities;

•

to one or more underwriters acting alone for resale to investors or to the public;

•

through the distribution of securities by any selling stockholder to its partners, members or securityholders;

•

through a combination of any of those methods of sale; and

•

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

If the selling stockholders sell shares of Class A common stock to a dealer acting as principal, the dealer may resell those shares at varying prices to be determined by the dealer in its discretion at the time of resale without consulting with us or the selling stockholders, and the resale prices may not be disclosed in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Any underwritten offering may be on a best efforts or a firm commitment basis.

Sales of the Class A common stock may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions:

•

at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;

•

at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

•

at prices related to prevailing market prices; or

•

at negotiated prices.

Any of the prices may represent a discount from the then-prevailing market prices.

In connection with the sale of Class A common stock, underwriters or agents may receive compensation from the selling stockholders in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive compensation from purchasers of the Class A common stock, for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell the Class A common stock to or through dealers, and the dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Discounts, concessions and commissions may be changed from time to time. Dealers and agents that

TABLE OF CONTENTS

participate in the distribution of the Class A common stock may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act of 1933, and any discounts, concessions or commissions they receive from the selling stockholders and any profit on the resale of Class A common stock they realize may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under applicable federal and state securities laws.

If a prospectus supplement is provided in connection with an offering, it will, where applicable:

•

identify any underwriter, dealer or agent;

•

describe any compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, commissions or otherwise received from the selling stockholders by each underwriter or agent and in the aggregate by all underwriters and agents;

•

describe any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers;

•

identify the amounts underwritten; and

•

identify the nature of the underwriter’s or underwriters’ obligation to take the Class A common stock.

Until the distribution of the Class A common stock is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of any underwriters and selling group members to bid for and purchase the Class A common stock. As an exception to these rules, underwriters are permitted to engage in some transactions that stabilize the price of the Class A common stock. Those transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the shares.

Underwriters may engage in overallotment. If any underwriters create a short position in the Class A common stock in an offering in which they sell more shares than are set forth on the cover page of the applicable prospectus supplement, the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing the shares in the open market.

The lead underwriters may also impose a penalty bid on other underwriters and selling group members participating in an offering. This means that if the lead underwriters purchase Class A common stock in the open market to reduce the underwriters’ short position or to stabilize the price of the shares, they may reclaim the amount of any selling concession from the underwriters and selling group members who sold those shares as part of the offering.

In general, purchases of Class A common stock for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the shares to be higher than it might be in the absence of those purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of the shares to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the shares before the distribution is completed.

Neither we nor the selling stockholders make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above might have on the price of the Class A common stock. In addition, neither we nor the selling stockholders make any representation that underwriters will engage in those transactions or that the transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Under agreements into which the selling stockholders may enter, underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of the Class A common stock may be entitled to indemnification by the selling stockholders against or contribution towards certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the applicable securities laws.

If the selling stockholders offer Class A common stock in a subscription rights offering to our existing stockholders, the selling stockholders may enter into a standby underwriting agreement with dealers, acting as standby underwriters. The selling stockholders may pay the standby underwriters a commitment fee for the Class A common stock they commit to purchase on a standby basis. If the selling stockholders do not enter into a standby underwriting arrangement, the selling stockholders may retain a dealer-manager to manage a subscription rights offering on their behalf.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with the selling stockholders or perform services for the selling stockholders in the ordinary course of business.

To comply with applicable state securities laws, the Class A common stock offered by this prospectus will be sold, if necessary, in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.
