(excluding brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to purchase the shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule
13D. The source of the funds used to acquire the shares of Common Stock
reported herein is the working capital of the Manager, which at any given time may include funds borrowed on margin in the ordinary
