If a Holder does not exercise its pro-rata portion of its Series A Warrants on a given trading day, the unexercised amounts will not roll over and cumulate with subsequent trading days. More than 85% of the Series A Warrants are subject to the Amended Standstill Agreement. A copy of this press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
