** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Warburg Pincus Private Equity X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (together with an affiliated limited partnership, "WP X") is the holder of 40,820,391 shares of Common Stock and warrants originally exercisable for 8,698,920 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustments for certain issuances of common stock, stock splits, stock subdivisions, stock reclassifications, stock combinations, other distributions, certain repurchases, business combinations and similar actions; please see footnote (3) for further detail).
(2) Warburg Pincus X L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("WP X LP") is the general partner of WP X; Warburg Pincus X LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("WP X LLC") is the general partner of WP X LP; Warburg Pincus Partners, LLC, a New York limited liability company ("WP Partners") is the sole member of WP X LLC; and Warburg Pincus & Co., a New York general partnership ("WP") is the managing member of WP Partners. Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York limited liability company ("WP LLC") manages WP X. As a Partner of WP and a Member and Managing Director of WP LLC, Mr. David A. Coulter may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Common Stock held by WP X and the warrants exercisable for Common Stock held by WP X.
(3) Pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Mr. David A. Coulter, herein states that this filing shall not be deemed an admission that he is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock held by WP X or of any of the warrants exercisable for Common Stock held by WP X. Mr. Coulter disclaims beneficial ownership of such Common Stock and such warrants exercisable for Common Stock, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest in such shares of Common Stock and in such warrants exercisable for Common Stock.
(4) MBIA Inc.'s underwritten public offering pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated February 7, 2008 to a prospectus dated June 29, 2007, which was consummated on February 13, 2008, triggered certain anti-dilution adjustments under the terms of WP X's previously reported warrants in the Form 3 filed on February 1, 2008, initially exercisable for 8,698,920 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $40.00 per share (subject to adjustments for certain issuances of common stock, stock splits, stock subdivisions, stock reclassifications, stock combinations, other distributions, certain repurchases, business combinations and similar actions).
(5) This anti-dilution adjustment is being voluntarily reported; no transaction has taken place with respect to these warrants. As a result of the anti-dilution adjustments, the warrants are exercisable for 11,502,704 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $30.25 per share. The warrants are currently exercisable for the original 8,698,920 shares, as well as an additional 56,579 shares of Common Stock (exercise of the warrants for the balance of the 11,502,704 shares of Common Stock issuable, which is 2,747,205 shares of Common Stock, must occur on a net exercise basis and the warrantholder can only receive cash upon exercise prior to the obtaining of certain shareholder approvals as may be necessary under any applicable law or regulation or requirement of any applicable securities exchange).
