Avidity Partners Management LP, Avidity Partners Management (GP) LLC, Mr. Witzke and Mr. Gregory may be considered directors by deputization due to their affiliation with Ms. Meng. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of its, his or her pecuniary interest, if any, therein, and this report shall not be deemed to be an admission that such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
