(3)  The general partner of KKR 2006 Fund L.P. is KKR Associates 2006 L.P., and the general partner of KKR Associates 2006 L.P. is KKR 2006 GP LLC. The designated member of KKR 2006 GP LLC is KKR Fund Holdings L.P. KKR Fund Holdings GP Limited is a general partner of KKR Fund Holdings L.P.

(4)  Each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all or a portion of the securities reported herein. The filing of this statement shall not be deemed to be an admission that, for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise, the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of any securities reported herein, and the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.
