        <footnote id="F2">These restricted stock units, which convert into common stock on a one-for-one basis, were granted under the Company's 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan in a transaction exempt under Rule 16b-3 and, except as otherwise provided in the award notice, vest on 1/9/2018, subject to continuous service as a member of the board of directors.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Each of these Warrants entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock; however for each Warrant exercised, the holder will receive a net share amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise multiplied by the closing sale price of the common stock on the exercise date minus the exercise price, divided by the closing sale price, together with cash for any fractional shares.</footnote>
