The Issuer Warrants held by FPA Value Partners were converted as described in this footnote following the Initial Effective Time. Form 2 of 2.

(the "Issuer") that were held directly by certain unaffiliated separately managed accounts (the "Managed Accounts") as FPA serves as investment adviser to such Managed Accounts.
