Depending on various factors that are or may become relevant, the Reporting Persons may consider (i) making proposals which relate to or may result in changes in the board of directors and/or management of the Issuer; (ii) selling all or part of the securities of the Issuer owned by such Reporting Persons in open market or privately negotiated transactions; (iii) acquiring additional securities of the Issuer in open market or privately negotiated transactions; (iv) making a proposal or proposals to acquire more (or potentially all) of the equity interests in the Issuer, including, without limitation, directly from certain (or potentially all) of the security holders of the Issuer; (v) making a proposal or proposals relating to the acquisition of certain (or potentially all) of the assets of the Issuer; (vi) making a shareholder proposal or proposals to request that the Issuer consider one or more extraordinary transactions, such as a merger; and (vii) one or more combinations of the foregoing.

 
 

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the outcome of any discussions referenced above, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the board of directors, price levels of the Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities markets, and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, purchasing or disposing of shares of Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, or other instruments or securities of the Issuer, in the open market or otherwise, at any time and from time to time.
