(*) Subject to the Section 16 Conversion Blocker (as defined below), GCM may be deemed to beneficially own 15,501,479 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock
underlying the $78,592,500 principal amount of the Issuer’s Floating Rate Convertible Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) held by Glendon Opportunities Fund II, L.P., a private fund for which GCM acts as the investment manager
(“G2”). The Notes held by G2 are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $5.07 per share, which conversion price will be lowered to $4.51 per share if approved by the Issuer’s shareholders.
Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, a holder of the Notes is not entitled to receive any shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any Notes held by such holder, to the extent that such holder, together with such holder’s affiliates and any other
person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such holder’s for the purposes of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder, as determined pursuant to the rules promulgated Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act, would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Restricted Ownership Percentage (the “Section 16 Conversion Blocker”). The “Restricted Ownership Percentage” is 9.9% of the shares of Common Stock
then issued and outstanding, which percentage may be changed to 19.9% at a holder’s election upon 61 days’ notice to the Issuer.
(**) Percentage based on the sum of (a) 15,213,277 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding as of April 26, 2024, as reported by the Issuer in the Form 10-Q
for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC on May 1, 2024, and (b) 1,671,603 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of certain of the Notes, which, due to the Restricted Ownership Percentage, is the maximum number of
shares that could be received by G2 upon conversion of the Notes.
