This presentation includes “forward‐looking statements,” within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act.” Forward‐looking statements are not based on historical information and include, without limitation, statements regarding our future financial condition and results of operations, business strategy and plans and objectives ofmanagement for future operations. Forward‐looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events. The words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “project,” “estimate” andsimilar expressions identify forward‐looking statements. These forward‐looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions made by us or our officers that, although believed to be reasonable, are subjectto certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely as compared to those contemplated or implied by such forward‐looking statements.

All forward‐looking statements involve risks, assumptions and uncertainties. You should not rely upon forward‐looking statements as predictors of future events. The occurrence of the events described, and theachievement of the expected results, depend on many events, some or all of which are not predictable or within our control. Actual results may differ materially from expected results. These risks, assumptions anduncertainties are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward‐looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factorsalso could harm our results. All of the forward‐looking statements we have included in this presentation are based on information available to us on the date of this presentation. We undertake no obligation, andspecifically decline any obligation, to update publicly or revise any forward‐looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions,the forward‐looking events discussed in this presentation might not occur.

This preliminary financial information and guidance has been prepared by our management and should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These estimatedpreliminary results and forecasts are subject to completion of our customary quarterly and annual financial closing and audit and review procedures and are not a comprehensive statement of our financial results forthe applicable periods. In addition, this preliminary financial information and guidance is not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved in any future period.

Use of Non‐GAAPMeasuresThe Company presents Modified EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its performance. However, Modified EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to netincome, income from operations or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The Company definesModified EBITDA as net income (loss), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock‐based compensation, changes in fair value of warrant expense, and one‐time restructuring‐related costs includingemployee severance and asset impairment. Management considers the Company’s core operating performance to be that which its managers can affect in any particular period through their management of theresources that affect the Company’s underlying revenue and profit generating operations during that period. Non‐GAAP adjustments to the Company’s results prepared in accordance with GAAP are itemized in theCompany’s 10‐K for the period ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC on April 1, 2019, and 10‐Q for the period ended June 30, 2019, as filed with SEC on August 13, 2019. Readers are encouraged to evaluatethese adjustments and the reasons the Company’s considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Modified EBITDA, the reader should be aware that in the future the Company may incurexpenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The Company’s presentation of Modified EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that its future results will beunaffected by unusual or non‐recurring items.
