(1) The securities are owned directly by Nisswa Acquisition Master Fund Ltd (the "Fund"), of which Pine River Capital Management L.P (the "Partnership") is the Investment Manager. Mr. Taylor is the sole member of Pine River Capital Management LLC (the "LLC"), an entity which is the general partner of the Partnership. Mr. Taylor, the Partnership and the LLC disclaim beneficial ownership of any of the securities owned by the Fund other than to the extent of his or its pecuniary interest therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Taylor, the Partnership or the LLC is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.

("Capitol"), pursuant to which the Fund is obligated to deliver to Capitol 723,176 shares of Common Stock in exchange for a cash payment of $7,137,747 ($9.87 per share). The closing of the purchase and sale of the shares will occur on the date on which Capitol's trust account is liquidated after the merger between Capitol and Two Harbors Merger Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the issuer, is consummated. Capitol is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the trust account to be liquidated on the date of the consummation of the merger, and in no event shall such liquidation occur more than one business day after the date of the consummation of the merger.
