| The Investor Presentation and Press Release are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and Exhibit 99.4, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein. | |
| The Reporting Person reserves the right to modify the proposal in the Offer Letter in any way, to extend or discontinue discussions regarding the same, or to withdraw the Offer Letter at any time. The Reporting Person and its affiliates may, directly or indirectly, take such additional steps from time to time as they may deem appropriate to further the matters set forth in the Offer Letter as may be modified from time to time, including, without limitation, (i) engaging in discussions regarding the same with the Issuer, other shareholders, potential sources of financing, advisors, and other relevant parties, and (ii) entering into non-disclosure, financing commitments, and other agreements, arrangements and understanding as may be appropriate in connection with the matters set forth in the Offer Letter, as may be modified from time to time. |
