           Because of certain business and family relationships among the Reporting Persons, they are filing as if they constitute a group solely for informational purposes. However, the filing of this statement is not an admission by any Reporting Person that such Reporting Person and any other Reporting Person or Reporting Persons constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Rule 13d-5 thereunder. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock owned by any other Reporting Person, except to the extent that beneficial ownership is expressly reported herein.
