Explanation of Responses:

1. Open market purchase by the reporting person of 8,888 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock").

2. On December 30, 2022, the Board of Directors of Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. ("Sorrento") declared a stock dividend (the "Dividend") to all holders of record of its common stock as of the close of business on January 9, 2023, of 0.1410127 of a share of Common Stock for each one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Sorrento ("Sorrento Common Stock"). The Reporting Person wrote a put option in Sorrento Common Stock on August 26, 2022 (the "Put Option"), which was adjusted as a result of the Stock Dividend to relate to an aggregate of 19,500 shares of Sorrento Common Stock and 2,749 shares of Common Stock and to reflect a corresponding change to the exercise price of the Put Option to $0.80268 per share of Sorrento Common Stock and $8.6002 per share of Common Stock.

3. The Put Option settled on March 17, 2023 and resulted in the Reporting Person becoming entitled to receive 2,749 shares of Common Stock at a price of $8.6002 per share of Common Stock, upon the expiration of the lock-up on such shares which is currently set to expire on January 31, 2025.
