including Harspring Capital, LP (the “HC Fund”). Mr. Gail is the managing partner of Harspring, and in such capacity may be
deemed to indirectly beneficially own the securities reported herein. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of

Each of the Reporting Persons

a joint Schedule 13D.
(b) The

(f) Mr.

| Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
The Shares reported herein

of business) of the Accounts in open market purchases. The aggregate purchase price of the 1,421,400 Shares reported herein is approximately
$18,312,651, including brokerage commissions.
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
The Reporting Persons acquired
the securities of the Issuer based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that such securities, when purchased, were undervalued and represented
an attractive investment opportunity. The Reporting Persons believe that there are numerous operational and strategic opportunities to
maximize shareholder value and the Reporting Persons intend to engage in a dialogue with the Issuer's management and Board of Directors
(the "Board") regarding these matters.
The Reporting Persons intend
to consider, explore and/or develop plans and/or make proposals (whether preliminary or final, including with other third parties) with
respect to, among other things, the Issuer's operations, management, Board structure (including Board composition), capital or corporate
structure, capital allocation policies, strategy and plans, and potential business combinations and strategic alternatives involving the
Issuer or certain of the Issuer's businesses or assets, including transactions in which the Reporting Persons may seek to participate
and potentially engage in (including with other third parties), or may change their intention with respect to any and all matters referred
to in this Item 4. The Reporting Persons intend to communicate with the Issuer's management and Board about a broad range of operational
and strategic matters and to communicate with other shareholders or third parties, including potential acquirers and financing sources,
regarding the Issuer and the Reporting Persons’ investment in the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may exchange information with any
such persons pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements.
No Reporting Person has any present
plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D
except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed
herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and depending upon various factors,
including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, overall market conditions, the outcome of
any discussions referenced above, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of securities
of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to purchase
additional Shares, sell some or all of their Shares, or engage in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect
to the Shares, including swaps and other derivative instruments. In addition, the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to
time, (i) review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto and
(ii) propose or consider one or more of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |

2021, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report form on Form 40-F filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2022.
As of the close of business
on April 14, 2022, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 1,421,400 Shares,
constituting approximately 9.5% of the outstanding Shares.
(b) Harspring
and Mr. Gail have shared power to vote or direct the vote of and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of the 1,421,400 Shares
reported herein.

be deemed to be a member of a “group” with the other Reporting Persons for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities

Persons.
(c) The
Reporting Persons did not engage in any transactions in the Shares during the past sixty days.
