2011 Special Dividend Declaration

In May 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a dividend for an aggregate of 2,178,917 shares of Common Stock to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Shares”) in satisfaction of the Special Dividend that would have been due April 26, 2012. In connection with such issuance, the Company (i) eliminated the provision for a Series A Special Dividend on April 26, 2012 and (ii) amended the event that triggered an automatic conversion of Series A Shares into shares of Common Stock to be the effective date of a registration statement covering the resale of the underlying Common Stock. The Special Dividend was declared and paid in May 2011. The estimated fair value of the Common Stock was $5.9 million, or $2.69 per share.
