General

The Reporting Persons acquired the Issuers securities for investment purposes, and such purposes were made in the Reporting Persons ordinary course of business. In pursuing such investment purposes, the Reporting Persons may further purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose or otherwise deal in the Issuers securities at times, and in such manner (including pursuant to hedging transactions), as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in market prices of the Issuers securities, changes in the Issuers operations, business strategy or prospects, or from a sale or merger of the Issuer.
