As the manager of ABV V and ABE, Abingworth LLP may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held by ABV V and ABE.

 

As investment decisions for the investment funds managed by Abingworth Management Limited (ABV II) and Abingworth LLP (ABV V and ABE) are made by investment committees comprised of substantially the same individuals, each of Abingworth Management Limited and Abingworth LLP may be deemed to

The exercise of the Warrants is limited: each Reporting Person may only exercise their respective Warrants such that the Reporting Persons’ aggregate beneficial ownership does not exceed 4.99% on a post-exercise basis. Accordingly, the Warrants provide the Reporting Persons with no right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days of the date of acquisition.

Abingworth Management Limited and Abingworth LLP may each be deemed to beneficially own 5.3% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer.
