        <footnote id="F6">The reported option granted pursuant to the Issuer's 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the &quot;2019 Option&quot;) vested one-third on the first anniversary of the grant date, and then monthly over the next two years, subject to certain target stock price and daily liquidity conditions.  On April 10, 2019, the Board approved an amendment to the 2019 Option so that it remained exercisable for the full term, and changed the vesting schedule to provide for immediate vesting of a portion of the option, with the remainder subject to performance-based vesting tied to certain target stock price and daily liquidity conditions.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F7">Subject to the blocker (described below), the shares of Series H Preferred Stock (the &quot;Preferred Stock&quot;) are convertible into the common stock, par value $0.01, of the Issuer (the &quot;Common Stock&quot;) at any time, and have no expiration date, but are subject to mandatory conversion on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date.  The Preferred Stock are subject to a blocker that prohibits the Issuer from effecting a conversion of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock if giving effect to the conversion would cause the holder to beneficially own</footnote>
        <footnote id="F8">(together with its affiliates or any &quot;group&quot; members) in excess of 4.99% of the Common Stock (or, upon notice by the holder, in excess of 9.99% of the Common Stock).  As the group owns more than 10% of the Common Stock, the members of the group are effectively barred from converting their Preferred Stock into additional shares of Common Stock.  Absent this blocker, the 2,200 shares of Preferred Stock held by Warlock would be convertible into 303,600 shares of the Common Stock at its election.</footnote>
