Explanation of Responses:

1. The shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") and 10.000% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the "Preferred Stock") to which this Form 3 relates are held of record by Empyrean Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EI"). Empyrean Capital Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("ECP"), serves as the sole member of EI. Empyrean Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("ECP GP"), is the general partner of ECP. Amos Meron serves as the managing member of ECP GP, and as such may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the securities held directly by EI. Each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock except to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein. Pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(1), ECP is not deemed to beneficially own the securities held by EI but has elected to file this Form 3 nevertheless.

2. The Preferred Stock is perpetual and has no expiration date.

3. The amount reported reflects the amount of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock based upon (i) an initial liquidation preference of $48.51 divided by (ii) a conversion price of $36.37 multiplied by (iii) the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock held by the Reporting Persons as of the date of issuance.

4. The Reporting Persons are jointly filing this Form 3 pursuant to Rule 16a-3(j) under the Exchange Act.
