Explanation of Responses:

1. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated May 9, 2018, by and among the Issuer, Eli Lilly and Company ("Parent") and Bluegill Acquisition Corporation ("Merger Sub"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, Merger Sub made a cash tender offer (the "Offer") to purchase each outstanding share of the Issuer's common stock for $50.00 per share (the "Offer Price"), net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable tax withholding. These shares were tendered into the Offer and, after the expiration of the Offer at one minute after 11:59 pm Eastern Time on June 21, 2018, Merger Sub accepted all of the tendered shares and the holder was entitled to receive the Offer Price per share.

2. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding option to purchase shares of the Issuer's common stock, whether or not exercisable or vested, was cancelled and the holder thereof became entitled to receive an amount in cash determined by multiplying (A) the excess, if any, of $50.00 over the exercise price per share of the common stock underlying such stock option by (B) the number of shares of common stock subject to such stock option.

3. This option, which provided for vesting in thirty-six equal monthly installments following March 31, 2018, was cancelled and the Reporting Person became entitled to receive an amount in cash per the terms of the Merger Agreement, as described in footnote (2) above.

4. These Shares are held of record by OrbiMed Private Investments IV, LP ("OPI IV"). OrbiMed Capital GP IV LLC ("GP IV") is the general partner of OPI IV, and OrbiMed Advisors LLC ("Advisors"), a registered adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, is the managing member of GP IV. By virtue of such relationships, GP IV and Advisors may be deemed to have voting and investment power over the securities held by OPI IV and as a result may be deemed to have beneficial ownership over such securities.

5. These 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 Advisors is the managing member of GP V. By virtue of such relationships, GP IV and Advisors may be deemed to have voting and investment power over the securities held by OPI V and as a result may be deemed to have beneficial ownership over such securities. The Reporting Person is a member of Advisors.

6. Each of GP IV, GP V, Advisors and the Reporting Person 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 or his pecuniary interest therein, if any. This report on Form 4 shall not be deemed an admission that any of the reporting persons is a beneficial owner of such securities for the purpose of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose.
