| 1. For the reasons discussed in the Remarks below, this and a separate Form 4 filed today are being jointly filed by and on behalf of each of the persons listed in footnote 2 (the "Reporting Persons"). The Reporting Persons are making these joint filings because they may be deemed to constitute a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). |

By virtue of such relationships and the relationships discussed in footnote 3, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership over the shares of common stock discussed in footnote 3. |
| 5. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein for purposes of Rule 16a-1(a) under the Exchange Act, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein. |
| Remarks: |
| Because an electronically filed joint filing is limited to a maximum of ten reporting persons, this Form 4 is one of two filed today reporting on the same classes of securities of the same Issuer by the joint filers named in footnote 2 above. Each Form 4 will be filed by Thermo Fisher. On December 8, 2023, the Issuer effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-20 (the "Reverse Stock Split"). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the shares of Issuer common stock have been adjusted accordingly. |
