    <amountBeneficiallyOwned>Row 9 of each Reporting Person's cover page to this Schedule 13G sets forth the aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by such Reporting Person and is incorporated by reference.

The Fund directly holds 7,220,384 shares of common stock and 5,263,157 warrants exercisable for up to 10,526,314 shares of common stock (the "Warrants"). Each of the Warrants contains a provision (the "Beneficial Ownership Blockers") which precludes exercise of the Warrants to the extent that, following exercise, the Fund, together with its affiliates and other attribution parties, would own more than 9.99% of the common stock outstanding. The Fund is currently prohibited from exercising the Warrants to the extent that such exercise would result in the Reporting Persons' beneficial ownership of more than 10,666,523 shares of common stock.

RA Capital Healthcare Fund GP, LLC is the general partner of the Fund. The general partner of RA Capital is RA Capital Management GP, LLC, of which Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah are the controlling persons. RA Capital serves as investment adviser for the Fund and may be deemed a beneficial owner, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer held by the Fund. The Fund has delegated to RA Capital the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of all securities held in the Fund's portfolio, including the shares of the Issuer's common stock reported herein. Because the Fund has divested voting and investment power over the reported securities it holds and may not revoke that delegation on less than 61 days' notice, the Fund disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities it holds for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act. As managers of RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah may be deemed beneficial owners, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by RA Capital. RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, and Mr. Shah disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G other than for the purpose of determining their obligations under Section 13(d) of the Act, and the filing of this Schedule 13G shall not be deemed an admission that either RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, or Mr. Shah is the beneficial owner of such securities for any other purpose.</amountBeneficiallyOwned>    <classPercent>Due to the Beneficial Ownership Blocker listed in the Pre-Funded Warrants, each Reporting Person's beneficial ownership percentage is 9.99%. Such percentage is based upon the sum of (i) 82,273,237 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 12, 2026, as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 13, 2026 and (ii) 21,052,632 shares of common stock issued in the Issuer's public offering of equity securities that closed on July 31, 2026, as reported in the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 29, 2026, and giving effect to Warrants, to the extent exercisable within 60 days hereof, as referenced herein. Due to field limitations of the EDGAR filing system, the percentages listed in Row 11 of the Reporting Persons' cover pages have been rounded down to 9.9%.</classPercent>
