The reporting person is a member of the investment committee of Abingworth LLP, which approves investment and voting decisions by a majority vote, and no individual member has the sole control or voting power over the shares held by Abingworth. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.

3. This report shall not be deemed an admission that the reporting person, Abingworth or any other person is the beneficial owner of the securities reported herein for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.

4. Upon the closing of the Issuer's initial public offering, each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converted into Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (without payment of further consideration and with no expiration date) plus an additional 56,903 incremental shares as a result of an adjustment as provided for in the Company's certificate of incorporation.

Each share of Series D Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the right to purchase would have been convertible into shares of the Issuer's common stock as described in footnote (3) above.
