Explanation of Responses: |
1. BML Capital Management, LLC ("BML Capital") serves as the general partner of BML Investment Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Fund"), which is the direct owner of the subject shares. Mr. Leonard is the managing member of BML Capital, and exercises investment and voting control over the subject shares. Accordingly, shares owned directly by the Fund may be regarded as being beneficially owned by Mr. Leonard. Notwithstanding, Mr. Leonard disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
2. The price reported in Column 4 is a weighted average price. The shares were sold in multiple transactions at prices ranging from $2.30 to $2.31. Full information regarding the number of shares purchased at each separate price can be furnished to the SEC staff upon request. |
3. The Fund wrote American-Style put option contracts expiring in January 2023 (the "Put Options") which provide that the Fund will be required to purchase shares of Common Stock at the stated strike price if the counterparty exercises such option. The fund was assigned 144,100 shares and covered the remaining Put Options. |
