Explanation of Responses:
1. The Reporting Persons do not acknowledge that the Issuer's 5.0% / 7.0% Convertible Sr Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2022 (the "Old Notes") and 3.00% / 5.00% Convertible Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2024 (the "New Notes") are derivative securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
2. On March 27, 2020, the Issuer completed an exchange transaction (the "Exchange"), whereby it issued the New Notes and shares of its Common Stock in exchange for its existing Old Notes. In connection with the Exchange, the Reporting Persons received an aggregate of 20,945,875 shares of Common Stock and $28,361,286 in aggregate principal amount of New Notes in exchange for $56,701,867 in aggregate principal amount of Old Notes beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
3. The New Notes are convertible at the election of the holder at any time prior to the close of business on the trading day immediately preceding August 31, 2024, the maturity date of the New Notes. The New Notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of 2.1939631 shares of Common Stock per $1.00 principal amount of New Notes (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances).
4. Upon conversion of the New Notes, the settlement of the conversion right may, at the option of the Issuer, be in the form of shares of Common Stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.
5. These securities are directly owned by certain private funds managed by Whitebox Advisors LLC and may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Whitebox Advisors LLC by virtue of its role as the investment manager of such private funds.
6. These securities are directly owned by certain private funds in which Whitebox General Partner LLC serves as their general partner and may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Whitebox General Partner LLC by virtue of its role as the general partner of such private funds.
7. The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of the securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose.
