In addition, the Reporting Persons may at any time acquire additional Common Shares (or other securities) of Navigator or dispose of any or all of their Common Shares, if any, in the open market or otherwise or engage in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to such Common Shares, depending upon its ongoing evaluation of their investment in such Common Shares, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities or other investment considerations.
