The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock reported herein except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed to be an admission that the Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such shares of Common Stock for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.

Inc. and 100% of the membership interests in Riley Investment Management LLC and B. Riley and Co. Holdings, LLC in connection with the acquisition of such entities by Great American Group, Inc.
