Each Reporting Person, as a member of a group with the other Reporting Persons for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may be deemed the beneficial owner of the Common Stock directly owned by the other Reporting Persons. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such Common Stock except to the extent of his or her or its pecuniary interest therein.
In addition to the foregoing group, as a result of the Reporting Persons involvement in the actions described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D Amendment, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be member of a group for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such group may constitute the following entities (including funds and accounts managed by each entity):

(1) | Per each entitys SEC filings. |
(2) | Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if such person possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security or the right to acquire such power within 60 days. Shares of Common Stock underlying shares of Convertible Preferred Stock that are currently convertible, or are convertible within 60 days of December 15, 2023, are deemed outstanding solely for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. |
(3) | Calculated based on 9,999,980 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 12, 2023, as reported in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 15, 2023, plus the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the entitys holdings of Convertible Preferred Stock. |

(6) | The terms of a letter agreement entered into with Davidson Kempner Capital Management LP precludes it from converting any Convertible Preferred Stock beneficially owned by it into Common Stock in excess of 9.99% of the number of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. |
(7) | Includes 1,347,138 shares of Common Stock and 14,016,779 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 912,980 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. |
(8) | Includes 1,053,055 shares of Common Stock and 10,957,247 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 713,698 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. |
The group may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of all the shares beneficially owned by each member of the group. As such, the group may be deemed to beneficially own in the aggregate 59,105,197 shares of Common Stock. The entities listed in the table in this Item 5 other than the Reporting Persons herein have been notified that such entities, and the funds and accounts managed by each entity, may beneficially own certain Common Stock and need to file separate beneficial ownership reports with the SEC related thereto. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D Amendment nor any of its contents, however, shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the Reporting Persons that they are the beneficial owner of any of the Common Stock beneficially owned in the aggregate by other members of the group for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
The information disclosed under Item 4 above is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.
