2. The Warrants Holder is the direct beneficial owner of the Warrants. On the basis of relationships among the reporting persons, the other reporting persons may be deemed indirect beneficial owners of the Warrants, but each such other reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Warrants except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any.
