See Issuer’s Form 8-K filed May 8, 2018 and the Purchase Agreement attached thereto as Exhibit 10.1.

The Reporting Persons (as defined below) beneficially own 33,042,050 shares of Common Stock (the “Subject Shares”), which number, giving effect to the Purchase Agreement Shares, includes: 26,239,329 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 6,802,721 shares of common stock.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION.

 

The Reporting Persons, directly or indirectly through certain affiliates, acquired the shares of the Issuer, including the Purchase Agreement Shares, for investment purposes and not with a view toward or having the effect of directing or changing control over the Issuer.
