Item 4.

Ownership

Reference is hereby made to responses 5 - 8 on pages 2 - 4 of this Schedule, which responses are incorporated herein by reference.

The securities to which this Schedule relates (the Shares) were assigned to PSH, GWC and AllianceBernstein Venture Fund I, L.P. (ABV) (collectively, the Collateral Agent) pursuant to that Assignment dated December 26, 2018 (the Effective Date, and such agreement, the Assignment). The Collateral Agent was designated as collateral agent pursuant to a guarantee and security agreement by and between the Collateral Agent, Targeted Growth, Inc. (TGI) and the other parties thereto (the Security Agreement). The Shares were assigned to the Collateral Agent in partial satisfaction of the obligations owed by TGI under the Security Agreement.

 

Page 5 of 8


From and after the Effective Date, the Reporting Persons, along with ABV, share voting and dispositive control over the Shares. Jeffrey S. Skoll, as the indirect sole member of PSH, may be deemed to share the power to direct the voting or disposition of the Shares on behalf of PSH.

Neither the filing of this Schedule nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that PSH, Jeffrey S. Skoll or GWC are or were, for any other purpose, the beneficial owners of any of the Shares.

Under the definition of beneficial ownership in Rule 13d-3 under the Act, it is also possible that the individual general partners, executive officers, and members of the foregoing entities may be deemed the beneficial owners of some or all of the Shares insofar as they may be deemed to share the power to direct the voting or disposition of the Shares. Neither the filing of this Schedule nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of such individuals is or was, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the Shares, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

The calculation of percentage of beneficial ownership in response number 11 on each of pages 2 - 4 was derived from the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on May 13, 2016, in which the Issuer stated that the number of shares of its common stock outstanding as of May 13, 2016 was 341,405,545 shares of Common Stock.
