Explanation of Responses:

1. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Common Stock of the Issuer.

2. Represents the number of shares required to be sold by the Reporting Person to cover the tax withholding obligation in connection with the settlement of vested restricted stock units. This sale is mandated by the Issuer's election under its equity incentive plans to require the Reporting Person to fund this tax withholding obligation by completing a "sell to cover" transaction with a brokerage firm designated by the Issuer. This sale does not represent a discretionary trade by the Reporting Person.

3. One-fourth of the shares subject to the stock option vest and become exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and the remaining shares vest in 36 equal monthly installments thereafter.

4. This grant will vest upon the achievement of a specified clinical/regulatory milestone, provided, however, if the vesting event occurs before the date that is 12 months after the date of grant, then the award will instead vest on the date that is 12 months after the date of grant, and provided further that the Performance RSU will expire on January 31, 2027 if the specified performance based milestone is not achieved by such date.
