of the Reporting Persons business. In pursuing such investment purposes, the Reporting Persons may further purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose or otherwise deal in the Securities at times, and in such manner (including pursuant to hedging
transactions), as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in market prices of the Securities, changes in the Issuers operations, business strategy or prospects, or from a sale or merger of the Issuer. To evaluate such alternatives, the
Reporting Persons routinely will monitor the Issuers operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive and strategic matters, capital structure, and prevailing market conditions, as well as alternative investment
opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons and other investment considerations. Consistent with their investment research methods and evaluation criteria, the Reporting Persons may discuss such matters with management or
directors of the Issuer, other shareholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit and other investors. Such factors and discussions may materially
affect, and result in, the Reporting Persons modifying their ownership of the Securities, exchanging information with the Issuer pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements, proposing changes in the Issuers operations,
governance or capitalization, or in proposing one or more of the other actions described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to formulate other plans and/or make other
proposals and take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer, including any or all of the actions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, or acquire additional Securities or dispose of all
Securities beneficially owned by them, in public market or privately negotiated transactions. The Reporting Persons may at any time reconsider and change their plans or proposals relating to the foregoing.
