Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. SEE DISCUSSION UNDER ITEM 5 ABOVE Additionally, pursuant to the provisions of the Ernest S. Rady Trust, the Evelyn S. Rady Trust and the DHM Trust, Ernest S. Rady, as trustee, has the power to sell, buy, retain, invest and reinvest the assets of these trusts, which include the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock. Further, Ernest S. Rady, the sole trustee of the Ernest S. Rady Trust ("Rady Trust"), transferred the majority of the Rady Trust's equity interest in each of Memrad Holdings, Ltd. ("Memrad"), American Assets, Inc. ("AAI"), and CANPAC Enterprises, Ltd. ("CANPAC" and together with Memrad and AAI, collectively, the "Transfer Companies") to a newly formed annuity trust ("Annuity Trust"). This equity transfer was accomplished through the issuance of non-voting securities by each of the Transfer Companies. Ernest S. Rady, as the sole trustee of the Rady Trust, retained all voting shares of each Transfer Company and, thereby, the right to vote and direct the investment of the shares of common stock of Issuer held by each of the Transfer Companies. Further, Ernest Rady, as the sole trustee of the Annuity Trust, may vote and direct the investment of the Annuity Trust's assets. Under Rule 13d-3(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"), Ernest S. Rady, as trustee of the Rady Trust, is, therefore, deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner of all of the securities of Issuer owned by the Transfer Companies. For continuity of reporting and for ease of comprehension of this report, the reporting parties hereunder have consolidated the holdings of the Rady Trust and the Annuity Trust, the sum of which is reported by the Rady Trust on Exhibit A.
