The percentage of Shares owned is based upon 40,983,795 Shares outstanding on February 13, 2015, as set forth in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2014. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to have direct beneficial ownership of the Shares as follows:

SET mrlNoTableShading RILLC, individually and in its capacity as an investment adviser, may be deemed to possess direct beneficial ownership of the 779,770 Shares that are owned by it and the Managed Accounts. Additionally, RILLC, as the sole general partner, or sole managing member of the general partner, of each of the Relational LPs may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) the 1,586,890 Shares beneficially owned by the Relational LPs because the limited partnership agreements of the Relational LPs specify that RILLC has sole investment discretion and voting authority with respect to those Shares.

Each of Messrs. Whitworth and Batchelder, as Principals of RILLC, may be deemed to share indirect beneficial ownership of the Shares which RILLC may beneficially own. Each of Messrs. Whitworth and Batchelder disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes.

To the best of the knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, other than as set forth above, none of the persons named in Item 2 is the beneficial owner of any Shares.

(b) See item (a) above.

(c) Except as set forth in Exhibit A to this Statement, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the Shares during the past sixty days not previously reported.

(d) No other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares covered by this Statement, except that dividends from, and proceeds from the sale of, the Shares held by accounts managed by RILLC may be delivered to such accounts.

(e) Not applicable.
