(1) The option vests in twenty-four equal monthly installments beginning 03/28/08.
(2) The securities are owned directly by Robert T. Symington. Mr. Symington is a director of the Issuer and an employee of Avenue Capital Management II, L.P. (the "Adviser"). The Adviser is the adviser to Avenue Special Situations Fund IV, L.P., Avenue Investments, L.P., Avenue International, Ltd., Avenue -CDP Global Opportunities Fund, L.P. and GPC 73, LLC (collectively, the "Funds"). The Funds have made an investment in Issuer. Pursuant to the Funds' limited partnership agreements, any director compensation received by an employee of the Adviser related to an entity in which the Funds have invested shall be for the benefit of the Adviser. Such amounts shall reduce certain fees and expenses of the Funds. Mr. Symington disclaims beneficial ownership of the options (and the common stock or other equity issued upon the exercise of the options), except for that portion of the sale proceeds necessary for Mr. Symington to satisfy any tax liabilities related thereto. (Continued Footnote 3)
(3) The options being reported herein were also reported on Mr. Symington's Form 4 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2008.
