Explanation of Responses:
1. Represents restricted stock units ("RSUs") that vest on the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of June 11, 2020 (the "Grant Date") and (ii) the Issuer's next regularly scheduled annual meeting of stockholders that occurs following the Grant Date (the "Next Annual Meeting"), subject to the Reporting Person's continuous service as a non-employee director through such vesting date. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of Common Stock.
2. These securities are held of record by David P. Bonita ("Bonita"), a member of OrbiMed Advisors LLC ("Advisors"). Pursuant to an agreement with Advisors and OrbiMed Capital GP V LLC ("GP V"), Bonita is obligated to transfer these securities, or the economic benefit thereof, to Advisors and GP V, which will in turn ensure that such securities or economic benefits are provided to OrbiMed Private Investments V, LP ("OPI V").
3. Each of GP V and Advisors disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein for purposes of Rule 16a-1(a) under the Exchange Act, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any. GP V and Advisors have designated a representative, Bonita, to serve on the Company's board of directors. This report shall not be deemed an admission that GP V or Advisors is a beneficial owner of such securities for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or for any other purposes.
4. These securities are held of record by OPI V. GP V is the general partner of OPI V and Advisors, a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended, is the managing member of GP V. By virtue of such relationships, GP V and Advisors may be deemed to have voting and investment power with respect to the securities held by OPI V noted above and, as a result, may be deemed to beneficially own such securities for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Advisors exercises this investment and voting power through a management committee comprised of Carl L. Gordon, Sven H. Borho, and Jonathan T. Silverstein, each of whom disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by OPI V.
5. Subject to the Reporting Person's continuous service to the Issuer as a non-employee director through each vesting date, this option vests ratably on a monthly basis, on the monthly anniversary of June 11, 2020 ("Option Date"), over the one-year period following the Option Date so that the option shall be 100% vested and exercisable on the one-year anniversary of the Option Date ("Vesting Date"); provided, however, if the Next Annual Meeting occurs prior to the Vesting Date, then the option shall vest in full immediately prior to the Next Annual Meeting.
