1. Neil Gagnon serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Gagnon Advisors, LLC and is the managing member and principal owner of Gagnon Securities LLC, each of which provide investment management services to investment vehicles and managed accounts (collectively, the "Accounts"), and as such, has investment discretion with respect to the Accounts. Mr. Gagnon's interest in the securities reported herein is limited to the extent of his pecuniary interest in each of the Accounts, if any.

2. The shares of common stock were received as an in-kind quarterly interest payment with respect to the 6.0% Convertible Debentures due 2024 (the "Debentures") held by the Darwin Partnership. The Debentures will mature on August 12, 2024 unless earlier converted or repurchased in accordance with their terms. The Debentures are convertible, at the option of the holders, into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.25 per share, subject to adjustment. If the VWAP of the Issuer's common stock has been at least $9.75 (subject to adjustment) for at least 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive trading day period, the Issuer may force the conversion of all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of the Debentures, accrued and unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing, subject to certain conditions.
