Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a member of a group that may be deemed to collectively beneficially own more than 10% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of Common Stock. The filing of this Form 3 shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owners of any securities of the Issuer he or it does not directly own.

2. Mr. Kanen, as the managing member of KWM, may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held in customer accounts managed by KWM (including the 37,258 shares held in Mr. Kanen's account), which includes the 127,045 shares of Common Stock held by the Philotimo Fund LP, of which KWM is the general partner.
