(3) (cont'd from FN2) MSPEA is the record holder of 789,515 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. MS Parent may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by operating units (collectively, the "MS Reporting Units") of MS Parent, its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "MS"). This filing does not reflect securities, if any, beneficially owned by any operating units of MS whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of the MS Reporting Units in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998).
(4) (cont'd from FN3) Neither the filing of this Form 4 nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner of any such shares of Common Stock for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or for any other purpose, and each of the Reporting Persons expressly disclaims the beneficial ownership thereof except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any.
(5) (cont'd from FN4) MSPEA's nominee to the Issuer's board of directors, Mr. Homer Sun, became one of the Issuer's directors on June 9, 2011. By virtue of Mr. Homer Sun being one of the Issuer's directors, each of the Reporting Persons is a director by deputization.
