Pursuant to the Offering, ClearOne sold 8,306,535 shares and returned subscription for 754,868 shares that were oversubscribed after allocating oversubscribed shares on a pro-rata basis. Investors who participated in the Offering should expect to see the shares in their account within five business days from the Closing Date.
