The Series C Preferred Stock and certain of the other Warrants contain a conversion cap that precludes the holder thereof from converting and exercising the Series C Preferred Stock and these Warrants to the extent that the holder would, after such conversion and exercise, beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) in excess of 9.99% of the shares of common stock outstanding.
