On February 19, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors determined that, as a result of the Issuer obtaining analyst coverage for its common stock, Mr. Murphy had achieved the third of four performance milestones and had vested in an additional 50,000 shares.

(5) This number does not include 898,756 shares of common stock underlying oustanding options and 30,000 shares of common stock underlying warrants held by Mr. Murphy; post-transaction Mr. Murphy continues to beneficially own or have a right to acquire 6,926,092 shares of common stock.
(6) The option was automatically issued pursuant to the terms of the Reporting Person's Equity Incentive Award Agreement issued in August 2012.
