Calculated solely for the purpose of determining the filing fee in accordance with Rule 0-11(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The filing fee is calculated based on the sum of the aggregate cash payment for the proposed per share cash payment of $26.00 for each of the 3,450,000 outstanding shares of 8.75% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, and the 2,400,000 outstanding shares of 9.00% Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the issuer subject to the transaction, less 3,450,735 shares beneficially owned by affiliates of the issuer which will contribute such shares to a newly formed subsidiary, which subsidiary will then be contributed to the issuer immediately prior to the effective time in exchange for newly issued shares of the issuer’s common stock (the “Transaction Valuation”).

**	The amount of the filing fee, calculated in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 0-11(b)(1) and the Securities and Exchange Commission Fee Rate Advisory #1 for Fiscal Year 2015, was calculated by multiplying the Transaction Valuation by 0.0001162.
