|
|
(a)
|
Amount Beneficially Owned: NEA 14 is the record owner of Class B common stock ("Class B Common Stock") as described below. As described in the Issuer's prospectus filed under Rule 424(b)(4), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 16, 2017 (the "Prospectus"), holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to ten votes per share while holders of the Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share. In addition, holders of Class B Common Stock and holders of Common Stock generally vote together as a single class. This single class would consist of 60,471,930 shares, which includes (i) 11,003,271 shares of Common Stock (the "Prospectus Shares") and (ii) 49,468,659 shares of Class B Common Stock reported by the Issuer to be outstanding immediately following the offering described in the Prospectus. As further described in the Prospectus, each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible by the holder at any time into one share of Common Stock and each such share will convert automatically into Common Stock upon the occurrence of certain other events.
|
NEA 14 is the record owner of 2,724,202 shares of Class B common stock as of December 31, 2017 (the "Class B Common Stock"). As each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible by the holder at any time into one share of Common Stock, as described above, NEA 14 may therefore be deemed to own beneficially 2,724,202 shares of Common Stock (the "Shares"). As the sole general partner of NEA 14, NEA Partners 14 may be deemed to own beneficially the Shares. As the sole general partner of NEA Partners 14, NEA 14 GP likewise may be deemed to own beneficially the Shares. As the individual Directors of NEA 14 GP, each of the Directors also may be deemed to own beneficially the Shares.
|
(b)
|
Percent of Class: See Line 11 of cover sheets. The percentages set forth on the cover sheet for each Reporting Person are calculated based on 13,727,473 shares which includes (i) the Prospectus Shares reported by the Issuer to be outstanding as of the Prospectus and (ii) the 2,724,202 shares of Common Stock into which the Class B Common Stock are convertible.
|

Number of shares as to which such person has:
|
| (i) |
