| 4. Each RSU represents the contingent right to receive, upon vesting of the RSU, one share of the Issuer's common stock. |
| 5. The RSUs were granted on November 10, 2021 and vest in three equal annual instalments beginning on November 10, 2022. |
| Remarks: |
| On October 13, 2022, the Issuer (formerly Zymeworks Delaware Inc., a Delaware corporation) became the successor issuer of Zymeworks BC Inc.
