Explanation of Responses:

1. This option vests over a period of four years, with one quarter of the common shares underlying the option vesting on April 28, 2018 and the remainder vesting in twelve equal quarterly installments thereafter. The option allows for early exercise, subject to the Issuer's repurchase option with respect to any unvested common shares. All common shares underlying such option will become fully vested upon a change in control, as that term is defined in the Issuer's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.

2. Includes only options with the same termination date.

3. This option vests over a period of four years, with one quarter of the common shares underlying the option vesting August 10, 2016 and the remainder vesting in twelve equal installments on a quarterly basis thereafter. All common shares underlying such option will become fully vested upon a change in control, as that term is defined in issuer's 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.

4. These securities are held in a trust for the benefit of the reporting person's children. The reporting person's spouse is a trustee of the trust. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities, and the filing of this report is not an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of these securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
