(a) and (b). The information contained on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.

QVT Financial has the power to direct the vote and disposition of the Common Stock held by QVT Overseas Ltd., each of the Funds, the Separate Account and QVT Fund LP. Accordingly, QVT Financial may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate amount of 3,470,585 shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof, consisting of the shares owned by QVT Overseas Ltd. and each of the Funds and the shares held in the Separate Account.

QVT Financial GP LLC, as General Partner of QVT Financial, may be deemed to beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock reported by QVT Financial. QVT Associates GP LLC, as General Partner of each of the Funds, may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate amount of 1,665,759 shares of Common Stock, consisting of the shares owned by the Funds.
