The Reporting Person expects that they will, from time to time, review their investment position in the Issuer and may make additional purchases of the Shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, or hold or dispose of all or part of their investments in the Shares, depending upon the Reporting Persons' evaluation of the Issuer's business, prospects, financial condition and strategic direction, the market for the Shares, other opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, general economic conditions, stock market conditions and other factors.
