Explanation of Responses:
(1) Represents the weighted average sale price of the shares of the Issuer's common stock ("Shares") sold, ranging from a low of $0.21 to a high of $0.22 per Share. The Reporting Persons undertake, upon request by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Issuer or a security holder of the Issuer, to provide full information regarding the number of Shares sold at each separate price.
(2) The Shares are held of record by OrbiMed Private Investments V, LP ("OPI V"). OrbiMed Capital GP V LLC ("GP V") is the general partner of OPI V, and OrbiMed Advisors LLC ("OrbiMed Advisors"), a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended, is the managing member of GP V. By virtue of such relationships, GP V and OrbiMed Advisors may be deemed to have voting and investment power with respect to the securities held by OPI V. OrbiMed Advisors exercises this investment and voting power through a management committee comprised of Carl L. Gordon, Sven H. Borho, and W. Carter Neild, each of whom disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares held by OPI V.
(3) This report on Form 4 is jointly filed by GP V and OrbiMed Advisors. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein for purposes of Rule 16a-1(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any. OrbiMed Advisors and GP V have designated David Bonita ("Bonita"), a member of OrbiMed Advisors, to serve on the Issuer's board of directors. This report shall not be deemed an admission that any of the Reporting Persons, or Bonita, is a beneficial owner of such securities for the purpose of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose.
