        <footnote id="F1">Filer is an officer of Icarus Investment Corp. (&quot;Icarus&quot;) and disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">On December 8, 2016, Icarus exercised in full a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock of CECO Environmental Corp. (&quot;CECO&quot;) for $9.07 per share. Icarus paid the exercise price on a cashless basis pursuant to the terms of the warrant agreement governing the warrant, resulting in CECO's withholding of 160,360 of the warrant shares to pay the exercise price and issuing to Icarus the remaining 89,640 of the warrant shares.  The payment of the exercise price of the warrant on a cashless basis was previously approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of CECO for purposes of Rule 16b-3(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.</footnote>
