2. These securities of the Issuer are held by the Reporting Person with his spouse as tenants by the entirety.

3. Nancelou, Inc. entered into a Subscription Agreement with the Issuer pursuant to which Nancelou, Inc., on March 16, 2016, purchased (i) 20,304 shares of the Issuer's common stock at a purchase price of $2.40 per share, and (ii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 10,152 shares of the Issuer's common stock at a purchase price of $0.125 per share issuable upon exercise of the warrants, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50,000.
