        <footnote id="F1">The Dugaboy Investment Trust (the &quot;Trust&quot;) sold a majority of its pecuniary, non-voting, non-control interest in Highland Capital Management, L.P. (&quot;HCMLP&quot;) to another trust in a private transaction.  Mr. Dondero has an indirect interest in such transaction as a beneficiary of the Trust.   However, neither HCMLP nor the Trust sold any NHF shares and therefore there is no change in the number of NHF shares held.  Mr. Dondero continues to have a reportable interest in the shares held by HCMLP through his indirect limited partner interest (through the Trust) and general partner interest (through Strand Advisors, Inc. (&quot;Strand&quot;)) in HCMLP, and in the shares held by the Trust as a beneficiary of the Trust.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">These shares are held by HCMLP both directly and indirectly through advised accounts. Mr. Dondero is the President and the director of Strand, HCMLP's general partner, and may be deemed to be an indirect beneficial owner of shares held by HCMLP. Mr. Dondero disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">These shares are held pursuant to an employee benefit plan.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">These shares are held by the Trust pursuant to an employee purchase plan.  Ms. Dondero is the trustee of the Trust. Ms. Dondero and Mr. Dondero disclaim beneficial ownership of such shares.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">These shares are held directly by Mr. Dondero.</footnote>
