F1 Alexander Lerner served on the Issuer's Board of Directors (the "Board") as a representative of Indaba Capital Fund, L.P. (the "Fund") and its affiliates. Accordingly, Mr. Lerner does not have a right to any economic interest in securities of the Issuer granted to him by the Issuer in respect of his Board position. The Fund is entitled to receive all of the economic interest in securities granted to Mr. Lerner by the Issuer in respect of Mr. Lerner's Board position. Mr. Lerner disclaims beneficial ownership of the Issuer's securities to which this report relates and at no time has Mr. Lerner had any economic interest in such securities except any indirect economic interest through the Fund and its affiliates, entities for which he does not have a controlling interest and does not have investment control.
F2 Securities held directly by the Fund, or, as discussed in footnote (1), securities for which the Fund has all of the economic interest. Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement, the Fund and its general partner have delegated all voting and investment power over the securities directly held by the Fund to Indaba Capital Management, L.P. (the "Investment Manager"). As a result, each of the Investment Manager, IC GP, LLC ("IC GP"), as the general partner of Investment Manager, and Derek Schrier, as Managing Member of IC GP, may be deemed to exercise voting and investment power over such securities.
