Each of the Farallon Individual Reporting Persons, as a managing member or senior managing member, as the case may be, of the Farallon General Partner and a manager or senior manager, as the case may be, of the FCIP V General Partner and the F5MI General Partner, in each case with the power to exercise investment discretion, may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of all such Shares held by the Farallon Funds and all such Shares that the Farallon Funds have the right to acquire upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock acquirable upon the exercise of Preferred Tranche A Warrants.
