("Issuer") at a price of $6.50 per share reported herein was matchable under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, to the extent of Reporting Person's pecuniary interest in the sales of common stock by ABV VI and Abingworth BioEquities Master Fund Limited ("ABE") made between September 28, 2017 and January 17, 2018. The Reporting Person has paid to Issuer $692.00, representing the full amount of the Reporting Person's pecuniary interest in the profit realized in connection with the short-swing transactions, less transaction costs (rounded to the nearest dollar).
These shares were omitted from the Forms 4 filed by Reporting Person on October 2, 2017 and the twelve Form 4 filings made thereafter.
The shares purchased are held by ABV VI. Abingworth LLP ("Abingworth") is the investment manager of ABV VI and ABE (the "Abingworth Funds") and has been delegated with all investment and dispositive power over the securities held by the Abingworth Funds. The Reporting Person is a member of the investment committee of Abingworth, 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.
From time to time, the investment committee may delegate investment and voting authority over certain securities held by the Abingworth Funds to employees of Abingworth subject to the supervision and oversight of the investment committee, including any limits on such authority imposed by the investment committee in its discretion and the right of the investment committee to revoke such authority at any time. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, if any.
