(1) In connection with an underwritten public offering of the issuer, which closed on August 28, 2017 (the "Offering"), Third Security Senior Staff 2008 LLC ("Senior Staff 2008"), Third Security Staff 2010 LLC ("Staff 2010") and Third Security Incentive 2010 LLC ("Incentive 2010") each entered into an agreement with the issuer to convert all shares of Series A Senior Convertible Preferred Stock ("Senior Preferred Stock"), including all accrued dividends, held by these entities into shares of common stock at a conversion ratio of 1-for-1 (the "Conversion"). The shares of Senior Preferred Stock were immediately convertible and had no expiration date.
(2) The issuer agreed to issue warrants to purchase shares of common stock to each holder of Senior Preferred Stock that agreed to the Conversion in connection with the Offering. Senior Staff 2008, Staff 2010 and Incentive 2010 each received warrants to purchase that number of shares of issuer common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares of common stock received in connection with the Conversion, excluding accrued dividends, which warrants are exercisable immediately and have a term of five (5) years.
(3) Randal J. Kirk controls each of Senior Staff 2008, Staff 2010, Incentive 2010 and Third Security Staff 2014 LLC ("Staff 2014"). Shares held by these entities may be deemed to be beneficially owned (as defined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) by Mr. Kirk. Mr. Kirk disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
