The reporting person undertakes to provide to the issuer, any security holder of the issuer, or the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, upon request, full information regarding the number of shares purchased at each separate price within the range set forth in this Form 4.

Gilbert Li, a Director of the Issuer, is Managing Partner of Alta. In addition, Mr. Li is an investor in one or more of these Accounts and therefore is an indirect beneficial owner of a portion of these shares.
