Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )On November 3, 2015, Venrock Associates IV, L.P. ("VA4"), Venrock Partners, L.P. ("VP"), Venrock Entrepreneurs Fund IV, L.P. ("VEF4"), Venrock Healthcare Capital Partners, L.P. ("VHCP") and VHCP Co-Investment Holdings, LLC ("VHCP Co-Invest") (collectively, the "Venrock Funds") distributed an aggregate of 1,399,705 shares of the common stock of the Issuer to their respective partners pro rata based on their respective interests in the Venrock Funds (the "Distribution"). This Form 4 corrects the aggregate number of shares distributed in the Distribution and the number of shares held post-Distribution. ( 2 )Following the Distribution, the Venrock Funds' shares are held as follows: 566,247 shares held by VA4, 115,475 shares held by VP, 13,913 shares held by VEF4, 447,957 shares held by VHCP and 182,238 shares held by VHCP Co-Invest. Venrock Management IV, LLC ("VM4"), Venrock Partners Management, LLC ("VPM") and VEF Management IV, LLC ("VEFM4") are the sole general partners of VA4, VP and VEF4, respectively, and may be deemed to beneficially own these shares. VHCP Management, LLC ("VHCP Management") is the general partner of VHCP and the manager of VHCP Co-Invest and may be deemed to beneficially own these shares. Anders Hove is a member of VM4, VPM and VEFM4 and a managing member of VHCP Management. Dr. Hove expressly disclaims beneficial ownership over all shares held by VA4, VP, VEF4, VHCP, VHCP Co-Invest, VM4, VPM, VEFM4 and VHCP Management except to the extent of his indirect pecuniary interest therein. ( 3 )In the Distribution, VM4 received 180,193 shares, VPM received 36,797 shares, VEFM4 received 3,502 shares, and VHCP Management received 152,490 shares. Dr. Hove is a member of VM4, VPM and VEFM4 and a managing member of VHCP Management. Dr. Hove expressly disclaims beneficial ownership over all shares held by VM4, VPM, VEFM4 and VHCP Management except to the extent of his indirect pecuniary interest therein. For VM4, VPM, VEFM4 and VHCP Management, this represents a change in form of ownership from indirect to direct but does not represent a change in beneficial ownership.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
