        <footnote id="F1">Reflects a 20-for-1 reverse stock split effective October 18, 2016.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The reporting person is a joint trustee and beneficiary of the Grover T. and Jill Z. Wickersham 2000 Charitable Remainder Trust (the &quot;CRUT&quot;), which is the owner of the reported securities. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities owned by the CRUT, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. The inclusion of these securities in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of the reported securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purposes.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">The reporting person is the trustee of The Lindsay Anne Wickersham 1999 Irrevocable Trust (the &quot;Irrevocable Trust&quot;), which is the owner of the reported securities. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities owned by the Irrevocable Trust. The inclusion of these securities in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of the reported securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purposes.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">The reporting person is the trustee of the Grover T. Wickersham P.C. Employees' Profit Sharing Plan (the &quot;PSP&quot;), which is the owner of the reported securities. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities owned by the PSP, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest in the PSP. The inclusion of these securities in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of the reported securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purposes.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">The warrants contain a blocker that prohibits the holder from exercising the warrants if such exercise will result in beneficial ownership of more than 9.99% of the Issuer's outstanding shares by the warrantholder and his affiliates. The blocker may only be amended by written consent of both the Issuer and the holder. Since the reporting person's beneficial ownership percentage is over 9.99%, the warrants are currently not exercisable. The warrants will not be exercisable until the reporting person's beneficial ownership percentage falls below 9.99% (taking into account exercise of the warrants), or the blocker is waived by the mutual consent of the reporting person and the Issuer.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F6">The warrants were issued for no additional consideration in connection with the purchase by the reporting person of a $75,000 promissory note.</footnote>
