Depending on various factors, the Reporting Persons may take such actions as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in further discussions with management and the Board of Directors, communicating with other stockholders, making proposals to the Issuer concerning the capitalization, operations and/or strategy of the Company, purchasing additional Ordinary Shares or securities of the Issuer or selling or hedging some or all of their Ordinary Shares or other securities or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.

 

Except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed above, no Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
