Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers;
Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers;
Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

to the Certificate of Incorporation (the Certificate of
Incorporation) of the Company, the members of the Companys board
of directors (the Board of Directors) are elected to serve
staggered terms and are divided into three classes, with each
class being as nearly equal in number as possible, and with the
term of office of one class of members of the Board of Directors
expiring at each annual meeting of the Companys stockholders.
Following the previously disclosed death of Bruce Shewmaker and
resignation of Rafael Astruc, each a Class II director, the Board
of Directors consisted of two (2) Class I directors, zero (0)
Class II directors and three (3) Class III directors.

In order to ensure that the Board of Directors consists of three
classes divided as evenly as possible, effective March 1, 2017,
Matthew Westwood resigned from his position as a Class III
director and immediately thereafter was appointed as a Class II
director by the remaining members of the Board of Directors in
accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the Second
Amended and Restated Bylaws (the Bylaws) of the Company. Mr.
Westwoods resignation and reappointment were effected solely to
reclassify the Board of Directors in order to have three classes
divided as evenly as possible. For all other purposes, Mr.
Westwoods service on the Board of Directors is deemed to have
continued uninterrupted since 2011, when he first joined the
Board of Directors. Mr. Westwood has been nominated to stand for
election as a Class II director at the annual meeting of the
Companys stockholders to be held in May 2017.

Mr. Westwood is not an interested person of the Company within
the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
and is independent as determined by the Board of Directors,
consistent with the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Mr.
Westwood was reappointed to and continues to serve on the
Companys Audit Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee, Valuation Committee and Compensation Committee. There
is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Westwood and any
other person to which Mr. Westwood was appointed to serve as a
member of the Board of Directors. There are no transactions
involving Mr. Westwood requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of
Regulation S-K.

Subsequent to Mr. Westwoods resignation and reappointment, the
Board of Directors approved a decrease in the size of the Board
of Directors from seven (7) directors to five (5) directors in
accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws.
