Pursuant to an investment agreement, dated December 17, 2015, by and between the Company and Cleveland Apple Investor L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Cleveland Investor"), as of March 1, 2016 (the "Closing Date") and the date of filing of this statement (the "Filing Date"), Cleveland Investor holds 435,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of the Company.
(2)	The shares of Preferred Stock as of the Closing Date are convertible at Cleveland Investor's option into 87,000,000 shares of the Common Stock, or approximately 16.7% of the Common Stock deemed issued and outstanding, based on the initial conversion price of $5.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments. Avatar GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the sole general partner of Cleveland Investor. Stephen Feinberg serves as the sole managing member of Avatar GP. Accordingly, as of the Closing Date and the Filing Date, each of Cleveland Investor, Avatar GP and Stephen Feinberg (collectively, the "Reporting Persons") may be deemed to beneficially own 87,000,000 shares of the Common Stock, or approximately 16.7% of the Common Stock deemed issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date and the Filing Date.
