Explanation of Responses:

1. These shares were distributed by Greyhawke Capital Advisors LLC ("Greyhawke") in a partial in-kind distribution to Mr. Plaumann and the Martin and Selma Rosen GST Trust FBO Robert Rosen and Descendants U/A December 15, 2015 (the "MS Trust") proportionate to their respective membership interests in Greyhawke (the "Distribution"). Mr. Plaumann holds a 50% ownership interest in Greyhawke and, as a result, received 5,862 shares in the Distribution. Mr. Plaumann is the trustee of the MS Trust. Mr. Plaumann, however, is not a beneficiary of the MS Trust, and disclaims any pecuniary interest in the 5,862 shares distributed by Greyhawke to the MS Trust in the Distribution. The Distribution did not involve a purchase or a sale of securities or any additional consideration, and did not result in a change in Mr. Plaumann's pecuniary interest in the shares.

2. The remaining shares held by Greyhawke were previously assigned by Mr. Plaumann to Greyhawke under the terms of his employment with Greyhawke. As a managing member of Greyhawke and a holder of a 50% membership interest therein, Mr. Plaumann may be deemed to have a pecuniary interest in the securities held by Greyhawke.
