Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Reporting Persons have entered into an agreement with respect to the joint filing of this statement, and any amendment or amendments thereto.

Item 3 of this Schedule 13D describes the pre-conversion equity owned by the Reporting Persons and is incorporated herein by reference.

Joshua Resnick, M.D. (“Resnick”), a former Partner at SV Health Investors, served as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer from July, 2016 to September, 2018, and, accordingly, the Reporting Persons may have had the ability to affect and influence control of the Issuer. From time to time, Resnick may have received stock options or other awards of equity-based compensation pursuant to the Issuer’s compensation arrangements for non-employee directors. Pursuant to an agreement with the Reporting Persons, Resnick was obligated to transfer any securities issued under any such stock options or other awards, or the economic benefit thereof, to the Reporting Persons, which would in turn ensure that such securities or economic benefits were provided to the Reporting Persons.

In connection with the IPO, the Funds entered into a lock-up agreement, pursuant to which they agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell, transfer or otherwise convey any of the Issuer’s securities held by them for a period of 180 days following the date of the IPO (the “Restricted Period”). The Restricted Period ended December 17, 2018.

The Funds and certain other persons are parties to a registration rights agreement with the Issuer (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), which provides for certain registration rights. Beginning 180 days after the IPO, subject to certain limitations, the Funds and other signatory stockholders have the right to request the Issuer to prepare, file and maintain up to two registration statements covering the sale of such shares of Common Stock. If the Issuer is eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, subject to certain limitations, the Funds and other signatory stockholders have the right to request the Issuer to prepare, file and maintain up to two registrations in any twelve-month period covering the sale of such shares of Common Stock. Additionally, the Funds and other signatory stockholders have “piggyback” registration rights to include these shares of Common Stock in future registration statements that the Issuer may initiate, subject to certain conditions and limitations (including customary cut-back rights). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer will pay all expenses relating to such registrations. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary cross-indemnification provisions, under which the Issuer is obligated to indemnify the Funds and other signatory stockholders in the event of material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to the Issuer, and the Funds and other signatory stockholders are obligated to indemnify the Issuer for material misstatements or omissions attributable to them.
