Field Calculate Annotation Angle

Jwalke20

Attempting to use the field calculator to change the Angle field in a a feature linked annotation class that resides in a file geodatabase. Specifically, I am adding a value to the current value. Error 999999 is thrown. 

def calcAngle(old, value):
    newAngle = old + float(value)
    return newAngle
