The information required by Items 4(a) – (c) is set forth in Rows (5) – (11) of the cover page for each of the Reporting Persons hereto, including footnotes, and is incorporated herein by reference for the Reporting Persons. The percentage set forth in Row (11) of the cover page for each of the Reporting Persons is based on a total of 8,961,840 shares of common stock of the Issuer as of April 2, 2018, as disclosed on the Issuer’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2018.

Pursuant to the terms of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series L Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series M Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series N Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series O Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants held by each of the Reporting Persons, as applicable, the Reporting Persons cannot convert such shares of convertible preferred stock or exercise such warrants to the extent the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, after such conversion or exercise, as applicable, more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “ 4.99% Blocker ”). The percentage set forth on Row (11) and the number of shares of Common Stock set forth on rows (5) through (9) of the cover page for each of the Reporting Persons give effect to the 4.99% Blocker. Consequently, at this time, the Reporting Persons are not able to exercise or convert any of the warrants or convertible preferred stock held by the Reporting Person, other than as set forth on the cover page for each of the Reporting Persons, due to the 4.99% Blocker.

 

The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by the Reporting Person as to beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock held by (including the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series L Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series M Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series N Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series O Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of the warrants to) the Reporting Persons.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, this statement is being filed on a voluntary basis.
