Explanation of Responses:
1. On August 23, 2007, at a special meeting of stockholders of Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

(the "Initial Investment") of a number of shares of Issuer common stock that will result, upon the closing of the Initial Investment, in Invus, L.P. owning 40% of the Issuer common stock outstanding on the date of such closing.
