CUSIP NO. 0000918581
 
The Reporting Persons submitted the Nomination Letter because the Reporting Persons believe the Nominees are highly qualified candidates with relevant credentials and skill-sets, including implementing corporate governance best practices, who will be vital in evaluating and executing on initiatives to unlock value at the Issuer, as evidenced by their bios below.
 
The Reporting Persons intend to engage in discussions with management, the Board and shareholders of the Issuer regarding the nomination of directors at the Annual Meeting and the composition of the Issuer’s Board generally in the hopes of avoiding a contested election at the Annual Meeting.
 
Richard A. Genovese is currently serving as an Independent Advisor/Consultant and a personal investment manager.  Previously, Mr. Genovese served as President of The New Managed Services Business Unit at ServiceSource International, Inc., a global leader in recurring revenue management, from August 2014 until September 2014.  From February 2012 to January 2014, Mr. Genovese served as the Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President of Ciber and as its Executive Vice President of North American Operations from September 2011 to February 2012.  Prior to joining Ciber, Mr. Genovese worked at various technology and consulting leaders including IBM, Price Waterhouse Coopers (PWC) and Electronic Data Systems (EDS).
