Based on such review, as well as other factors, Diana may from time to time and at any time: (i) acquire additional Shares of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise; (ii) dispose of any or all of their Shares in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise; and (iii) engage in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Shares. Any such actions that Diana might undertake may be made at any time without prior notice based on, among other things, Diana's review of numerous factors, including, but not limited to: an ongoing evaluation of the Issuer's business, financial condition, operations and prospects; price levels of the Issuer's Shares; general market, industry and economic conditions; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities available to Diana; and other future developments.
