aggregate of 1,586,206 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the sale of the

exceptions, during the applicable lock-up period, the Company’s
executive officers and directors may not offer, sell, pledge or
otherwise dispose of the foregoing securities without the prior
