        <footnote id="F1">The number of shares was adjusted by a factor to account for the effect of the spin-off of Theravance Biopharma, Inc. from Theravance, Inc.  The factor was based on the 3-day post-spin volume weighted average price of Theravance, Inc, and Theravance Biopharma, Inc. and the stock dividend of one ordinary share of Theravance Biopharma, Inc. for every 3.5 shares of Theravance, Inc. common stock received by Theravance, Inc. stockholders as of the record date for the spin-off.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">This option may be exercised and shall be vested as to 1/24th of the shares subject to this option when optionee completes each continuous month of service following the grant date.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">This option may be exercised and shall be vested as to 1/12th of the shares subject to this option when optionee completes each continuous month of service following the grant date and any then remaining unvested shares shall vest on the date of the next annual meeting of the Company's stockholders provided the optionee remains in continuous service on such date.</footnote>
