TABLE OF CONTENTS
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The 3,616,174 shares of our common stock, par
value $0.0001 per share, covered by the Prospectus, as supplemented hereby (the “Shares”), consist of shares issuable
to the selling stockholders upon exercise of warrants (the “Warrants”) issued pursuant to those certain Warrant Exercise
Agreements, each dated as of April 12, 2018 (the “Warrant Exercise Agreements”), between us and the investors party
thereto. Pursuant to the Warrant Exercise Agreements, we and the investors party thereto agreed that the investors would (i) exercise
certain outstanding warrants to purchase shares of our common stock originally issued to such investors on May 11, 2017 (the “Original
Warrants”) for cash and (ii) surrender certain other Original Warrants for cancellation, and in exchange therefor we would
issue to each investor a Warrant to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of shares issuable upon the
exercise of the Original Warrant being exercised by such investor for cash pursuant to such investor’s Warrant Exercise Agreement.
On April 12, 2018, we issued to each investor a Warrant, with an exercise price of $7.00 per share, to purchase a number of shares
of common stock equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the Original Warrant being exercised by such investor
for cash pursuant to such investor’s Warrant Exercise Agreement, representing warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,616,174
shares of our common stock for all investors. The exercise price of the Warrants (i) will be subject to standard adjustments in
the event of any dividends or distributions on our common stock, or any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization
or similar transaction and (ii) may only be satisfied in the form of a “cashless” or “net” exercise after
the six-month anniversary of issuance, and only to the extent that there is not an effective registration statement covering the
resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Warrants each expire on July 12, 2019. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no holder will have the right to exercise any Warrant to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates,
would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or such other percentage as determined by the holder and notified to us in writing,
not to exceed 9.99%, provided that any increase will not be effective until 61 days after notice thereof) of the number of shares
of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares upon such exercise of the Warrant. The
Warrants were issued in a private placement pursuant to the exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act
(“Regulation D”), without general solicitation, made only to and with “accredited investors” as defined
in Regulation D.
The table below presents information regarding
the selling stockholders and the number of Shares each selling stockholder is offering under the Prospectus, as supplemented hereby.
The table is based on beneficial ownership of our common stock as of October 31, 2018. We have prepared the table based on information
furnished to us by or on behalf of the selling stockholders.
Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, beneficial ownership includes shares over which the indicated beneficial owner exercises voting or investment power.
Beneficial ownership is determined under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”),
and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities, including any securities that grant the holder the
right to acquire shares of our common stock within 60 days of October 31, 2018. These shares are deemed to be outstanding
for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding those securities, but they are not treated as outstanding
for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes below,
the table shows beneficial ownership as of October 31, 2018, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act. The percentage ownership data is based on 69,672,698 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2018
(as reflected in the records of our stock transfer agent).
Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes
below, we believe that the selling stockholders have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our common
stock beneficially owned by them. Since the date on which they provided us with the information below, the selling stockholders
may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of some or all of their shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act.
The number of shares in the column entitled
“Shares Offered Hereby” represent all of the Shares that the selling stockholders may offer under the Prospectus, as
supplemented hereby, and may be sold by the selling stockholders, by those persons or entities to whom they transfer, donate, devise,
pledge or distribute their Shares or by other successors in interest. The information regarding shares beneficially owned after
this offering assumes the sale of all Shares offered by each of the selling stockholders hereunder. The selling stockholders may
sell less than all of the Shares listed in the table. In addition, the Shares may be sold pursuant to this prospectus or in privately
negotiated transactions. Accordingly, we cannot estimate the number of Shares the selling stockholders will sell under the Prospectus,
as supplemented hereby. The selling stockholders may sell some, all or none of the Shares in this offering.
None of the selling stockholders has held any
position or office or had any other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates within the past three
years, other than the acquisition and beneficial ownership of the shares described in the tables below or other of our debt or
equity securities.

We do not know when or in what amounts a selling stockholder may offer Shares for sale. The selling
stockholders may not sell any or all of the Shares offered by the Prospectus, as supplemented hereby. Because the selling
stockholders may sell all or some of the Shares pursuant to this offering and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements
or undertakings with respect to the sale of any of the Shares, we cannot estimate the number of shares that will be held by the
selling stockholders after completion of this offering. However, for illustrative purposes of this table, we have assumed
that, after completion of this offering, none of the Shares covered by the Prospectus, as supplemented hereby, will be held by
the selling stockholders.
