| 1. Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 1, 2017 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and between the Issuer, MAK LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Parent"), MEH Acquisition Co., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"), and for limited purposes, Mallinckrodt plc, an Irish public limited company and the ultimate parent entity of Parent and Purchaser ("Mallinckrodt"), Purchaser was merged with and into the Issuer on December 11, 2017, with the Issuer surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). |
| 2. (Continued from Footnote 1) Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all shares Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger were canceled and converted automatically into the right to receive (i) $1.52 per share in cash, plus (ii) one non-transferable contingent value right per Share (each, a "CVR"), which represents the contractual right under a contingent value rights agreement, by and among Parent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, and for limited purposes, Mallinckrodt, entered into on December 7, 2017, to receive one or more payments in cash currently estimated to be up to $2.58 per share, contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones, in each case, less any required withholding taxes. |
| 3. The securities reported as directly beneficially owned by the designated Reporting Person may be deemed to be indirectly beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Owners listed below, each of whom is a managing member of One Palmer Square Associates VI, LLC, the sole general partner of the designated Reporting Person. Pursuant to Instruction 4(b)(iv) of Form 4, each such individual has elected to report as indirectly beneficially owned the entire number of securities owned by the designated Reporting Person, however each of them disclaims beneficial ownership of any securities, and any proceeds thereof, that exceed his or her pecuniary interest therein and/or that are not actually distributed to him or her. |
| 4. At the effective time of the Merger, each warrant that was outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, with an exercise price less than $1.52, was cancelled and converted into the right of the holder of such warrant to receive, for each share of Common Stock underlying such warrant, (i) an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of $1.52 over the applicable exercise price for such share, and (ii) one CVR. |
