for the repayment of debit balances in the account, which may exist from time to time.

The Reporting Persons expect to review from time to time their investment in the Company and may, depending on the market and other conditions: (i) purchase additional Shares, options or related derivatives in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise; (ii) sell all or a portion of the Shares, options or related derivatives now beneficially owned or hereafter acquired by them; and (iii) engage in other proposals as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate under the circumstances, including plans or proposals which may relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Also, consistent with their investment intent, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with relevant parties regarding the Company and ways to enhance shareholder value, including, but not limited to, the Company’s management, members of the board of directors, shareholders or other investors, potential strategic partners, financial advisers and other industry participants.
Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a, b) Each of Glenview Capital Management and Mr. Robbins may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power over 37,757,583 Shares, which equates to approximately 14.56% of the total number of Shares outstanding.
