Explanation of Responses:
1. These shares are held by Boston Ventures Limited Partnership V ("BVLPV"). Mr. Bolland serves on the Issuer's Board of Directors as a representative of BVLPV pursuant to the terms of the Class M Redeemable Voting Convertible Preferred Stock Agreement. As a general partner of Boston Ventures Management, Inc., an affiliate of BVLPV, Mr. Bolland may be deemed to have indirect ownership of shares of the Issuer's stock held by BVLPV.
2. This option was issued to John Hunt, Mr. Bolland's predecessor as a member of the Issuer's Board of Directors, as compensation for his service as a director. Because Mr. Hunt was serving as a representative of BVLPV, the Board of Directors of the Issuer approved the assignment of the stock option to BVLPV. As a general partner of Boston Ventures Management, Inc., an affiliate of BVLPV, Mr. Bolland may be deemed to have indirect ownership of this option.
