| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. This amendment to Form 4 is being filed to correct the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the lock up agreement dated September 21, 2016, NEA 13's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Shares") automatically converts, upon receipt by the Company of shareholder approval, into a number of shares of the Issuer's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Shares"), determined by dividing the stated value of each Preferred Share (which is $1,000) by $0.70. Such conversion is reflected in the amount of Common Shares reported in column 7 as underlying the security. The Series A Preferred Shares have no expiration date. |
| 2. NEA 13 purchased 4,000 Shares of Series A Preferred Shares and five-year warrants to purchase 5,714,286 Common Shares at a purchase price of $1,000 per unit pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 16, 2016, with a closing date of September 21, 2016 for a total of $4,000,000. |
| 3. The securities are directly held by New Enterprise Associates 13, L.P. ("NEA 13") and are indirectly held by NEA Partners 13, L.P. ("NEA Partners 13"), the sole general partner of NEA 13, NEA 13 GP, LTD ("NEA 13 LTD"), the sole general partner of NEA Partners 13 and each of the individual directors of NEA 13 LTD (NEA Partners 13, NEA 13 LTD and the individual directors of NEA 13 LTD (collectively, the "Directors") together, the "Indirect Reporting Persons"). The Directors of NEA 13 LTD are M. James Barrett, Peter J. Barris, Forest Baskett, Patrick J. Kerins, Krishna "Kittu" Kolluri, David M. Mott, Scott D. Sandell, Ravi Viswanathan and Harry R. Weller. The Indirect Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise of such portion of the NEA 13 securities in which the Indirect Reporting Persons have no pecuniary interest. |
