This statement relates to securities held for the account of Marblegate Special Opportunities Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the “Fund”). On November 6, 2009, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 29, 2009, among Enterprise Acquisition Corp. (“Enterprise”), the Issuer and Armour Merger Sub Corp. (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into Enterprise (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, 241,900 shares of Enterprise common stock and warrants to purchase 605,000 shares of Enterprise common stock held by the Fund immediately prior to the Merger were converted into 241,900 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Issuer (“Common Stock”) and warrants to purchase 605,000 shares of Common Stock.
The Issuer’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement (as filed as Exhibit 3.4 to the Form 8-K of the Issuer filed on November 12, 2009) prohibit any person, including the Reporting Persons, from beneficially owning or constructively owning shares in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer. In addition, the Supplement and Amendment to Warrant Agreement (as filed as Exhibit 4.4 to the Form 8-K of the Issuer filed on November 12, 2009) governing the warrants held by the Reporting Persons prohibits any person, including the Reporting Persons, from exercising the warrants if the exercise would result in such person beneficially owning greater than 9.8% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer. As a result, as of November 6, 2009, the Fund beneficially owned 9.8% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer.
Marblegate Asset Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Investment Manager”), is the investment manager of the Fund, and, in such capacity, may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock reported herein which is deemed beneficially owned by the Fund.
