One internal header supports two full size usb ports.

I'm thinking of building using an Asus M5A97 R2 mobo in a Cooler Master N600 case.

My issue is that while the case has two front panel usb 3.0 ports, the mobo only has one internal 3.0 header, but it says it has support for 2 additional ones (straight from mobo specs: 1 x USB 3.0 connector(s) support(s) additional 2 USB 3.0 port(s) (19-pin))

Do I need some kind of additional adapter to use the additional internal supported ones?
