beneficial ownership of all shares of common stock of the Issuer, par value

(3)     On March 3, 2014, Beams Power Investment Limited, a British Virgin
Islands limited liability company and a stockholder of the Issuer
("Beams Power")repaid $49,690,079 owed to WP IX pursuant to the Second Restated
Senior Exchangeable Note, dated January 30, 2013, issued by Beams Power to WP IX
(the "Second Restated Note"), representing a repayment in full of all amounts
owed to WP IX under the Second Restated Note. Upon such repayment, the Second
Restated Note was terminated and of no further force and effect.

(4)     Prior to the termination of the Second Restated Note, all or any portion
of the outstanding obligation under the Second Restated Note was exchangeable by
WP IX at any time and from time to time into shares of Common Stock held by
Beams Power.

(5)     The Second Restated Note had a maturity date of the close of business on
January 30, 2014 (the "Maturity Date"), but because any amount of the obligation
under the Second Restated Note that was still outstanding following the Maturity
Date continued to be exchangeable into shares of Common Stock held by Beams
Power (as more fully described in Note 7 below), the Second Restated Note had no
definite expiration date.

(6)     On March 3, 2014, the date that Beams Power repaid WP IX the total
outstanding obligation under the Second Restated Note in full, the total
outstanding obligation under the Second Restated Note was $49,690,079. This
number also assumes an exchange price of $5.64880 per share of Common Stock. The
exchange price was subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Second
Restated Note, which is described in Note 7 below.

(7)     On and after the Maturity Date, since the obligation under the Second
Restated Note was not repaid by Beams Power in full, the outstanding obligation
under the Second Restated Note was exchangeable by WP IX at any time and from
time to time into shares of Common Stock held by Beams Power at a price per
share equal to the lesser of: (i) $5.64880; (ii) the amount equal to 90% of the
weighted average trading price of the Common Stock for the 30-trading day period
ending on the most recent trading day immediately preceding the date that WP IX
delivers an exchange notice to Beams Power; and (iii) the amount equal to 90% of
the weighted average trading price of the Common Stock for the 30-trading day
period ending on January 29, 2014. In each case, the exchange price was also
subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, rights issuances and
certain other events relating to the Common Stock.
