On the same date, Canaan VIII distributed, for no consideration, the Shares it received from the distribution to its members in an amount equal to each such member's pro rata interest in the Shares. The aforementioned distributions were made in accordance with the exemptions afforded by Rule 16a-13 and Rule 16a-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
(2)	Canaan VIII and, together with the Canaan Fund, the "Canaan Entities", is the sole general partner of the Canaan Fund, and each may be deemed to have sole voting, investment and dispositive power with respect to the shares held by the Canaan Fund. Wende Hutton, a member and manager of Canaan VIII, serves as the representative of the Canaan Entities on the issuer's board of directors. Investment and voting decisions with respect to the shares held by the Canaan Fund are made by the managers of Canaan VIII, collectively, and no manager of Canaan VIII has beneficial ownership of any shares held by the Canaan Fund. Canaan VIII disclaims Section 16 beneficial ownership of the shares held by the Canaan Fund, except to the extent, if any, of its pecuniary interest therein.
