Explanation of Responses:
(1)	These securities are directly beneficially owned by certain private investment funds, including Whitebox Multi-Strategy Partners, LP ("WMP") and Whitebox Credit Partners, LP ("WCP") (together, the "Private Funds") and may be deemed to be beneficially owned by (a) Whitebox Advisors LLC by virtue of its role as the investment manager of the Private Funds, and (b) Whitebox General Partner LLC by virtue of its role as the general partner of the Private Funds. Each of the Private Funds, Whitebox Advisors LLC and Whitebox General Partner LLC disclaim beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein, and affirmatively disclaim being a "group" for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
(2)	These securities are directly beneficially owned by WMP.
(3)	These securities are directly beneficially owned by WCP and this Form 4 represents an exit filing for WCP as it now beneficially owns less than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock.

The acquisition was approved by the Issuer's board of directors in accordance with Rule 16b-3(d)(1) of the Exchange Act.
