In such capacities, Magnetar Financial exercises voting and investment power over the Warrants, 7.00% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes Due 2031 ("Notes"), 8.75% Series D Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series D Preferred Stock") and 9% Series B Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock") held by the Magnetar Vehicles.
F3 Magnetar Capital Partners LP ("Magnetar Capital Partners"), a Delaware limited partnership, is the sole member and parent holding company of Magnetar Financial. Supernova Management LLC ("Supernova Management"), a Delaware limited liability company, is the general partner of Magnetar Capital Partners. The manager of Supernova Management is David J.

F4 David J. Snyderman disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest in the Warrants, the Notes, the Series D Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock and the shares of the Issuer's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") issuable upon exercise of such Warrants, conversion of such Notes, conversion of such Series D Preferred Stock and/or conversion of such Series B Preferred Stock.
F5 The Notes will mature on December 31, 2031, at which time they may be settled, at the Issuer's election, in cash or shares of Common Stock as set forth in the Notes. The Notes are convertible, in whole or in part, at the noteholder's election, at any time into shares of the Issuer's Common Stock at a conversion price of $6.25 per share of Common Stock (four shares of Common Stock for each $25.00 of principal amount of Notes being converted).
F6 If at any time after September 21, 2023 holders of the Issuer's Series D Preferred Stock have required the Issuer to redeem (payable in cash or stock) in the aggregate at least 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, then the conversion price will be adjusted to the lower of (i) a 45% discount to the conversion price or (ii) a 45% discount to the lowest price at which any holder of Series D Preferred Stock converted into shares of the Issuer's Common Stock.
F7 The Notes bear interest at the rate of 7% per annum. Interest on the Notes may be payable, at the Issuer's election, in cash, in shares of the Series B Preferred Stock or in shares of Series D Preferred Stock, in each case as set forth in the Notes. The Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are both convertible into shares of the Issuer's Common Stock at the option of the holder thereof at any time. The number of shares of Common Stock indicated in column 3 of Table II above is based on $4,770,575 aggregate principal amount of Notes held by all Magnetar Vehicles.
F8 These shares of Series D Preferred Stock were received as an interest payment on the Notes, and thus the acquisition was exempt from Section 16 pursuant to Rule 16a-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Under the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock, holders thereof may convert their shares at any time into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion rate (which conversion rate the Reporting Persons have used for purposes of the figures herein) of $16.96 per share of Common Stock, and each share of Series D Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $25.00. As such, the Magnetar Vehicles' 16,439 shares of Series D Preferred Stock are convertible into up to 24,229 shares of Common Stock.
F9 On or after September 21, 2021, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Series D Preferred Stock, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, and on September 21, 2023, holders of Series D Preferred Stock may, at their option, elect to cause the Issuer to redeem any or all of their shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, payable in cash or shares of Common Stock, or any combination thereof, at the Issuer's option. The Series D Preferred Stock has no maturity date.
F10 These shares of Series B Preferred Stock were received as an interest payment on the Notes, and thus the acquisition was exempt from Section 16 pursuant to Rule 16a-9 under the Exchange Act. Under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, holders thereof may convert their shares at any time into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $40.00 per share of Common Stock, and each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $25.00. As such, the Magnetar Vehicles' 62,595 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into up to 39,120 shares of Common Stock.
F11 The Series B Preferred Stock is subject to a mandatory conversion once the 20-trading day volume-weighted average closing price of the Common Stock exceeds $58 per share, at which time each share of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $40.00 per share of Common Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has no maturity date.
