Explanation of Responses:

1. Acquired pursuant to the exercise of the warrants described in Table II.

2. The shares represent the exercise price paid by MacAndrews & Forbes LLC (formerly known as MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc.) ("MacAndrews & Forbes") to acquire the 372,842 shares reported above. The price of the shares was calculated pursuant to the terms of the warrant.

3. These warrants to purchase shares of the common stock ("Common Stock") of SIGA Technologies, Inc. ("SIGA") were acquired by MacAndrews & Forbes pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated August 13, 2003, by and between SIGA and MacAndrews & Forbes. These warrants were previously reported at the time of acquisition as the right to buy 341,493 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, but, pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants, were adjusted to reflect the effects of certain of SIGA's subsequent issuances.

Remarks:

Ronald O. Perelman beneficially owns 100% of the common stock of MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc., which beneficially owns 100% of the equity interests of MacAndrews & Forbes, a joint filer hereunder. MacAndrews & Forbes has a direct ownership interest in STH Partners, L.P., a joint filer hereunder ("STH"). MacAndrews & Forbes beneficially owns the securities described above as owned through wholly-owned corporation and STH beneficially owns the securities described above as owned through partially-owned limited partnership. STH has agreed that any voting stock of SIGA held by STH will be voted in the same proportion as the votes cast by the other holders of voting stock of SIGA on any matter to be voted on by holders of such voting stock. Paul G. Savas and Steven L. Fasman serve as the representatives of the reporting persons on SIGA's board of directors. This amendment is filed to restate the original Form 4. The number of shares shown in this restated Form 4 reflects an anti-dilution adjustment made pursuant to the terms of the SIGA Technologies, Inc. warrant disclosed in Table II of the original Form 4 and this restated Form 4. On September 28, 2010, SIGA announced a restatement of its financial statements in connection with a failure by SIGA to account for anti-dilution adjustments in certain warrants (including the warrants referenced in Table II). SIGA did not timely advise the reporting persons of the effect of the anti-dilution adjustment, which was triggered before the date of the original Form 4 and which resulted in the issuance of an additional 13,980 shares of Common Stock to MacAndrews & Forbes as a result of the exercise of the warrants referenced in Table II. See SIGA's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 28, 2010 for more information.
