credit to them as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations,
stock exchange rules and the prime brokers’ credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts
are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.

The Reporting Persons
purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented

Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may
deem advisable.

No Reporting Person
has any present plan or proposal that would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) – (j) of Item
