Explanation of Responses:

1. Each Class B Ordinary Share has no economic rights but entitles the reporting person to vote on all matters on which shareholders of the issuer vote and may, at the election of the reporting person and subject to the limitations set forth in the Exchange Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Company Partnership Agreement (each as defined and as described in the issuer's Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10, 2022), be exchanged, together with the paired Common Unit in ProKidney LP ("ProKidney") (a "Common Unit"), for a Class A Ordinary Share on a one-for-one basis.
