        <footnote id="F1">Certain funds and accounts for which the Reporting Person serves as investment manager, advisor or sub-advisor acquired a warrant to purchase 5.0% of the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as defined in a warrant acquisition agreement entered into with the Issuer on December 30, 2021). The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership in the reported securities, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The amount reflected above is estimated based on 24,847,977 outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer on a fully-diluted basis as of December 30, 2021, as provided by the Issuer to the Reporting Person, assuming hypothetically that the warrant was exercised on such date.  The number of shares that will actually be issued upon exercise of the warrant will not be known with certainty until the time such warrant is exercised.  The number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer actually issued upon exercise of this warrant may be materially different than the number of shares reflected in this report.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">In addition to the warrant referred to in footnote (1) above, certain funds and accounts for which the Reporting Person serves as investment manager, advisor or sub-advisor holds a warrant to purchase 23.0% of the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as defined in a warrant acquisition agreement entered into with the Issuer on October 13, 2020). The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership in the reported securities, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
