| 1. This statement is jointly filed by Bank of America Corporation and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch") (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). Bank of America Corporation holds an indirect interest in the securities listed in this Report by virtue of its 100% ownership of its subsidiary Merrill Lynch. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that any such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of, or has any pecuniary interest in, such securities for purposes of Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), or for any other purpose. Each reporting person is currently analyzing additional trading activity and expect to file another Form 4 as promptly as reasonably practicable once that analysis is complete. |
| 2. Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this statement nor anything herein shall be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose, (i) acting (or has agreed or is agreeing to act together with any other person) as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities of the Issuer or otherwise with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer or (ii) a member of any group with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer. |
| 3. Without conceding its status as a greater than 10% beneficial owner or that the reported transactions are subject to disclosure under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act or short-swing profit recovery under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the amount of profit potentially recoverable by the Issuer from the reported transactions in the event that the Reporting Persons were greater than 10% beneficial owners and the transactions were subject to Section 16(b) will be remitted to the Issuer |
