      QVT Financial LP (“QVT Financial”) is the investment manager for QVT Associates LP, QVT Overseas Ltd., Quintessence Overseas L.P. and Quintessence Associates LP and for a separate discretionary account managed for Deutsche Bank AG (the “Separate Account”). QVT Financial has the power to direct the vote and disposition of the Preferred Stock held by each of QVT Associates LP, QVT Overseas Ltd., Quintessence Overseas L.P., Quintessence Associates LP and the Separate Account. Accordingly, QVT Financial may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate amount of 230,700 shares of Preferred Stock, or 16.14% of the currently outstanding Preferred Stock, consisting of 19,785 shares of Preferred Stock owned by QVT Associates LP, 35,409 shares of Preferred Stock owned by QVT Overseas Ltd., 5,582 shares of Preferred Stock owned by Quintessence Overseas L.P., 1,366 shares of Preferred Stock owned by Quintessence Associates LP and 168,558 shares of Preferred Stock held in the Separate Account.

The initial Schedule 13G, filed on January 20, 2006, reported beneficial ownership of 300,000 shares of Preferred Stock by QVT Financial and calculated the percent of class on an assumed amount of 1,855,128 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding based on previous SEC filings by the Issuer. Subsequent to the initial filing, due to reductions in the amounts held in the Separate Account of 9,000 shares of Preferred Stock on December 6, 2006 and 42,000 shares of Preferred Stock on April 10, 2007, the aggregate amount of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by QVT Financial on those dates was 291,000 and 249,000, respectively.
