| Item 4. | Ownership | |
| (a) | Amount beneficially owned:
As of the close of business on March 31, 2025, the Reporting Persons and a certain Partners managed account (the "Partners Managed Account") hold an aggregate of 926,094 pre-funded warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") exercisable for an aggregate of 926,094 Shares. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable for one Share at an exercise price of $0.0001. The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable and have no expiration date. A holder of a Pre-Funded Warrant will not be entitled to exercise any portion of such Pre-Funded Warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of Shares beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Shares would be aggregated with the holder for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) to exceed 9.99% of the total number of then issued and outstanding Shares, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrant and subject to such holder's rights under the Pre-Funded Warrant to increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99% upon at least 61 days' prior notice from such holder to the Issuer (the "Pre-Funded Warrants Blocker"). As of March 31, 2025, the Pre-Funded Warrants Blocker limited the aggregate exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants by the Reporting Persons and the Partners Managed Account to 720,867 out of the 926,094 Shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants held by them.

Partners, as the investment manager of BVF, BVF2 and Trading Fund OS, and the sole member of Partners OS, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,734,500 Shares beneficially owned in the aggregate by BVF, BVF2 and Trading Fund OS and held in a certain Partners Managed Account, including 82,038 Shares held in the Partners Managed Account, which excludes 12,658 Shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants held in the Partners Managed Account.
BVF Inc., as the general partner of Partners, may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,734,500 Shares beneficially owned by Partners.
Mr. Lampert, as a director and officer of BVF Inc., may be deemed to beneficially own the 4,734,500 Shares beneficially owned by BVF Inc.

Partners OS disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned by Trading Fund OS. BVF GPH disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned by BVF and BVF2. Each of Partners, BVF Inc. and Mr. Lampert disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned by BVF, BVF2 and Trading Fund OS and held in the Partners Managed Accounts, and the filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that any such person or entity is the beneficial owner of any such securities. | |
