________________________
(1) The number of shares of Company common stock underlying the PSUs and RSUs granted to each of our NEOs on the Date of Grant was determined by dividing the respective targeted grant values of each award by $3.72, the closing sales price of the Company's common stock on the Date of Grant, and rounding down to the nearest whole share.
(2) The number of Stock Options granted to each NEO on the Date of Grant was determined by reference to the Black-Scholes pricing model and valuation assumptions used by the Company in accounting for Stock Options as of the Date of Grant, rounding down to the nearest whole share. With the exception of Mr. Ravin, the Stock Options awarded to our executive officers under the 2026 LTI Plan were incentive Stock Options. Under the terms of our 2013 Equity Plan, because Mr. Ravin beneficially owned more than 10% of our outstanding common stock on the Date of Grant, he was not eligible to receive incentive Stock Options unless the exercise price equaled 110% of the closing price of a share of Company common stock on the Date of Grant and the Stock Options had a stated expiration date of five (versus 10) years, so he received non-qualified Stock Options.
(3) The per share exercise price of the Stock Options is $3.72, the closing sales price of the Company's common stock on the Date of Grant.

The PSUs awarded under the 2026 LTI Plan (the "Target PSUs") will be earned over a one-year performance period beginning on January 1, 2026 and ending on December 31, 2026 (the "Performance Period") but will remain subject to a continued service-based vesting requirement, as explained further below. Fifty percent (50%) of the PSUs awarded will be eligible to vest based on the Company's achievement, expressed as a percentage (the "Adjusted EBITDA Performance Payout Factor"), against a target adjusted EBITDA1goal for the Performance Period, and fifty percent (50%) of the PSUs awarded will be will be eligible to vest based on the Company's achievement, expressed as a percentage (the "Total Revenue Performance Payout Factor"), against a target total revenue goal for the Performance Period. Under the terms of the 2026 LTI Plan, the ultimate number of PSUs that may vest (as calculated, the "Earned PSUs") shall equal (a) the average of (i) the applicable Adjusted EBITDA Performance Payout Factor and (ii) the applicable Total Revenue Performance Payout Factor multiplied by (b) the Target PSUs awarded to each 2026 LTI Plan participant, respectively, and shall range from zero to 200% of such Target PSUs.

Under the terms of the 2026 LTI Plan, the Earned PSUs will vest in equal annual installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the Date of Grant, generally subject to the awardee continuing to be a Service Provider (as such term is defined under the 2013 Equity Plan) through the applicable vesting date.
