Explanation of Responses:
1. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September 21, 2025, as amended on November 7, 2025 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Metsera, Inc.

3. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding and unexercised option immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive (x) an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Closing Amount minus the exercise price of such option, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time, net of all applicable withholding taxes, and (y) one CVR for each share of the Common Stock subject to such stock option immediately prior to the Effective Time.
