        <footnote id="F1">The reportable securities are owned by Wilmslow Estates Limited.  The Reporting Person has no beneficial interest in the trust which ultimately owns the economic interest in Wilmslow Estates Limited, but other members of the Reporting Person's family are discretionary beneficiaries in such trust. To the extent the Reporting Person may be deemed to hold an indirect beneficial interest under applicable United States securities laws, the Reporting Person disclaims such beneficial interest. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares and this statement shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such shares for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have a stated value of $1,000 per share and will be convertible into 996,779 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock, subject to certain conditions including the receipt of requisite stockholder approval pursuant to the Certificate of Designation governing the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
