Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )The reported securities are included in 14,570 units of Issuer securities (the "Units") purchased by the reporting person for $3.4325 per Unit pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June 15, 2015 by and among the Issuer, the reporting person and certain other qualified institutional and individual investors. Each Unit consists of one share of the Issuer's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock") and and nine-tenths of a Common Stock warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.98 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and the like). ( 2 )The shares of Common Stock reported herein give effect to the 1-for-6 reverse stock split which became effective in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on May 26, 2015. ( 3 )Shares acquired as Company matching contributions under the Metabolix, Inc. 401(k) Plan. ( 4 )These securities are in the form of restricted stock units ("RSUs") issued pursuant to the Issuer's 2014 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock. The RSUs will vest in four (4) equal annual installments beginning on April 1, 2016. Except as otherwise provided in the reporting person's employment agreement, all RSUs that have not vested will automatically terminate upon the reporting person's termination of employment with the Issuer and its subsidiaries. Vesting of the RSUs is also subject to certain acceleration, continuation and termination provisions set forth in the reporting person's employment agreement.
