The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership in the private fund except to the extent of its pecuniary interest, if any, therein.
(4)	Represents a pro-rata in-kind distribution of Common Shares of the Issuer by a private fund managed by Fairholme to its limited partners into accounts managed by Fairholme.

(8)	The reported securities are directly owned by The Fairholme Fund and The Fairholme Allocation Fund (each, a "Fund"), each a series of Fairholme Funds, Inc. The securities may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr. Berkowitz because he controls the sole member of Fairholme, which may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the securities because Fairholme serves as the investment manager to each Fund and certain private funds and managed accounts.
