The Company's board of directors has approved a record date of November 29, 2016 (the "Record Date") for the rights offering.

The planned rights offering will be made through the Company's distribution to its existing stockholders as of the Record Date of non-transferable subscription rights to purchase their pro rata portion of newly issued shares of the Company's common stock, on terms and conditions to be determined prior to the commencement of the rights offering. The proposed rights offering will also include an over-subscription right, which will entitle existing stockholders that exercise all of their basic subscription rights to purchase additional shares to the extent not purchased by other rights holders, subject to certain limitations.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the rights offering for general working capital purposes.
