(1) Securities beneficially owned indirectly by the Roman GLG Trust (the "Trust") and Jeffrey Robins, in his capacity as trustee of the Trust (the "Trustee"), through Jackson Holding Services Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Trust. Mr. Roman has a pecuniary interest in these securities as a beneficiary of the Trust.

(3) These securities are held by certain investment funds managed by GLG Partners LP, as investment manager. GLG Partners Limited is the general partner of GLG Partners LP, and Messrs. Roman, Noam Gottesman and Pierre Lagrange are Managing Directors of GLG Partners Limited with power to exercise investment over the securities owned by the investment funds and as a result, may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these securities. As discussed above in footnote (2), Mr. Roman disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(4) Each warrant is exercisable for one share of common stock at any time commencing on or after December 21, 2007, provided that there is an effective registration statement in effect at such time covering the shares of common stock underlying the warrants.
(5) The notes may be converted at any time by the holder into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate of 268.8172 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $3.72 per share of common stock, subject to certain adjustments.
