As of the close of business on December 31, 2019, the Reporting Persons held 1,458,000 Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 1,458,000 Shares (the “Warrants”). The Warrants may not be exercised if, after such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, more than 9.99% of the number of Shares then issued and outstanding (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). Such Warrants have an initial exercise price of $0.0001 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Warrants. As of December 31, 2019, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation limits the aggregate exercise of the Warrants by the Reporting Persons to 1,293,609 out of the 1,458,000 Shares underlying the Warrants owned by the Reporting Persons in the aggregate. In providing beneficial ownership described herein, the Reporting Persons have assumed 746,000 out of 746,000 Warrants owned by BVF would be exercised, 547,609 out of 606,000 Warrants owned by BVF2 would be exercised, and zero out of 106,000 Warrants owned by Trading Fund OS would be exercised.
As of the close of business on December 31, 2019, (i) BVF beneficially owned 1,559,939 Shares, including 746,000 Shares issuable upon the exercise of certain Warrants, (ii) BVF2 beneficially owned 1,155,971 Shares, including 547,609 Shares issuable upon the exercise of certain Warrants and (iii) Trading Fund OS beneficially owned 107,396 Shares.

Partners, as the investment manager of BVF, BVF2 and Trading Fund OS, and the sole member of Partners OS, may be deemed to beneficially own the 2,921,177 Shares beneficially owned in the aggregate by BVF, BVF2, Trading Fund OS, and a certain Partners managed account (the “Partners Managed Account”), including 97,871 Shares held in the Partners Managed Account.

BVF Inc., as the general partner of Partners, may be deemed to beneficially own the 2,921,177 Shares beneficially owned by Partners.
Mr. Lampert, as a director and officer of BVF Inc., may be deemed to beneficially own the 2,921,177 Shares beneficially owned by BVF Inc.

Partners OS disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned by Trading Fund OS. BVF GPH disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned by BVF and BVF2.
