The Reporting Person, on behalf of the Funds, acquired the securities disclosed herein based on the belief that the securities, when acquired, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.

Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Person, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Person may endeavor from time to time (i) to increase or decrease its position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of securities of the Issuer on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Person may deem advisable and/or (ii) to enter into transactions that increase or hedge its economic exposure to the securities of the Issuer without affecting its beneficial ownership.

The Reporting Person intends to review their investment in the Issuer on a periodic basis and may from time to time engage in discussions with management and the Board and other shareholders and potential shareholders of the Issuer and other parties concerning, among other things, the business, operations and future plans of the Issuer. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy and the execution of that strategy by management, the price levels of the securities of the Issuer, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Person may in the future take such actions with respect to their respective investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, making proposals concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, Board composition or operations and strategy of the Issuer (including by independently exploring plans or proposals advocated by others, or variations thereon), purchasing additional securities of the Issuer, selling some or all of its securities of the Issuer, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the securities of the Issuer, or changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4.
