Explanation of Responses:
1. Price reflected is the weighted-average sale price for shares sold. The range of sale prices for the transactions reported was $30.495 to $30.62 per share. The Reporting Person undertakes to provide, upon request by the SEC staff, the issuer, or a security holder of the issuer, full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price.
2. The shares are held by the Nieh Family Investments L.P - Fund 1 (the "Fund"). The Reporting Person is trustee of the Fund. The number of shares reported as indirectly held by the Fund reflects the change in form of beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 26,387 shares previously reported as indirectly held through the Reporting Person's interest in Lightspeed Venture Partners VIII, L.P. ("Lightspeed VIII"). Such shares were received by virtue of pro-rata in-kind distribution of common stock of the Issuer by Lightspeed VIII without consideration to its limited partners and LightSpeed General Partner VIII, L.P. ("Lightspeed GP"), its general partner, and the further pro-rata in-kind distribution of the shares received by Lightspeed GP without consideration to its interest holders, including the Fund.
3. As noted in footnote 2 above, Lightspeed VIII has effected a pro-rata distribution of the Issuer's Common Stock subsequent to the last transaction in the Issuer's Common Stock effected by the Reporting Person. The shares reported as held by the Reporting Person indirectly through Lightspeed VIII in this report reflect such distribution. This distribution did not result in any change in the Reporting Person's pecuniary interest in the Issuer's Common Stock and, accordingly, no Form 4 was required or filed to report such distribution. The Reporting Person is a director of Lightspeed Ultimate General Partner VIII, Ltd., the sole general partner of Lightspeed GP, which serves as the general partner of Lightspeed VIII. As such, the Reporting Person shares voting and investment power over the shares held by Lightspeed VIII. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by Lightspeed VIII except to the extent of his proportionate pecuniary interest therein.
