(1) Redmile Group, LLC’s beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s common stock (“Common Stock”) is comprised of 9,450,305 shares of Common Stock owned by certain private investment vehicles and/or separately managed accounts managed by Redmile Group, LLC, which shares of Common Stock may be deemed beneficially owned by Redmile Group, LLC as investment manager of such private investment vehicles and/or separately managed accounts. The reported securities may also be deemed beneficially owned by Jeremy C. Green as the principal of Redmile Group, LLC. Redmile Group, LLC and Mr. Green each disclaim beneficial ownership of these shares, except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest in such shares, if any. Subject to the Beneficial Ownership Blocker (as defined below), Redmile Group, LLC may also be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 337,800 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), which are convertible into an aggregate of 3,378,000 shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), the Issuer may not effect any conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock does not have the right to convert any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder, to the extent that, after giving effect to the attempted conversion set forth in a notice of conversion, such holder, together with such holder’s affiliates and any other person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including any “group” of which such holder is a member, would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the “Beneficial Ownership Blocker”). The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” is 9.99% of the shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding, which percentage may be changed at a holder’s election upon 61 days’ notice to the Issuer. The 10,225,405 shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by Redmile Group, LLC in this Schedule 13G represents 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated in accordance with footnote (2) below).

(2) Percentage based on: (i) 101,581,358 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of October 30, 2020, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020 filed with the SEC on November 6, 2020 (the “Form 10-Q”), plus (ii) 775,100 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 77,510 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which, due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, is the maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that could be converted to Common Stock as of October 30, 2020.
