The Advisor, as the investment manager for the Fund, and Mr. Breeden, as Managing Member of the Advisor and the General Partner, and as the Key Principal of the Offshore Investors Fund, may be deemed to own beneficially all shares of the Common Stock that are owned beneficially and directly by the Fund.
