Explanation of Responses:

1. As described in the issuer's registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-252960) under the heading "Description of Securities--Founder Shares", the Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the issuer at the time of the issuer's initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and certain anti-dilution rights and have no expiration date.

2. The Class B ordinary shares owned by the reporting person include up to 487,500 shares that are subject to forfeiture to the extent the underwriters of the initial public offering of the issuer's securities do not exercise in full their over-allotment option, as described in the issuer's registration statement.

3. The securities reported herein are held by ARYA Sciences Holdings IV (the "Sponsor"). The Sponsor is governed by a board of directors consisting of two directors, Adam Stone and the Reporting Person. As such, Mr. Stone and the Reporting Person have voting and investment discretion with respect to the Class B ordinary shares held of record by the Sponsor and may be deemed to have shared beneficial ownership of the Class B ordinary shares held directly by the Sponsor.
