The Voting Agreement requires that the Reporting Persons vote all Shares of the Issuer that they beneficially own for each of the Issuer's nominees for election to the Board, in favor of the Issuer's "say-on-pay" proposals, for the ratification of the appointment of independent auditors and, in other matters, in accordance with the recommendation of the Board. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Reporting Persons have also agreed to certain customary standstill provisions.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreement, which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.2 to the Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2016.
 
The Reporting Persons have had conversations with the Issuer's management and the Board regarding possible ways to enhance shareholder value. Consistent with the Voting Agreement, the Reporting Persons intend to have additional conversations with the Issuer's management and Board of Directors. These conversations have covered and are expected to continue to cover a range of issues, including those relating to the business of the Issuer; board composition; management; operations; capital allocation; asset allocation; capitalization; dividend policy; financial condition; mergers and acquisitions strategy; overall business strategy; executive compensation; and corporate governance. The Reporting Persons have also had similar conversations with other stockholders of the Issuer and other interested parties, such as industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment professionals, and other investors. Consistent with the Voting Agreement, the Reporting Persons may at any time reconsider and change their intentions relating to the foregoing.
