The Reporting Person acquired an aggregate of 53,571 shares of the Issuer’s common stock upon the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering (“IPO”) on the same terms and for the same price as other investors in the Issuer’s IPO. Such shares were acquired by the Reporting Person’s family trust, the Murphy-Chutorian Family Trust, of which he is co-Trustee with his spouse, at the IPO price of $7.00 per share using personal funds (approximately $374,997). Such shares, when aggregated with other acquisitions of the Issuer’s equity securities by the Reporting Person in the 12 months preceding the IPO exceeded 2% of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock after closing of the IPO.

 

The Reporting Person acquired an aggregate of 10,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock in a series of open market purchases as follows: (i) April 30, 2014, 2,000 shares at $4.99 per share; (ii) May 9, 2014, 1,400 shares at $4.01 per share; (iii) July 30, 2014, 1,000 shares at $3.40 per share; (iv) August 1, 2014, 1,500 shares at $3.50 per share; (v) November 4, 2014, 1,000 shares at $2.10 per share; November 5, 2014, 1,000 shares at $2.10 per share; and November 7, 2014, 2,100 shares at $2.10 per share. Such shares were acquired by the Reporting Person’s family trust, the Murphy-Chutorian Family Trust, of which he is co-Trustee with his spouse, using an aggregate of $30,754 of personal funds.

 

The Reporting Person has also received equity grants under the Issuer’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) as follows: (i) November 8, 2014 grant of options to acquire 85,000 shares of common stock at $2.10 per share, which options vest monthly over 4-years (1/48 per month) such that it is vested in full on the four-year anniversary of the grant date; and (ii) January 1, 2015 grant of options to acquire 75,000 shares of common stock at $1.96 per share, which options vest monthly over 4-years (1/48 per month) such that it is vested in full on the four-year anniversary of the grant date. In accordance with the terms of the 2014 Plan, such options will expire 10-years after the grant date.

Other than the 63,571 shares of common stock held in the Reporting Person’s family trust, over which he shares voting and investment control with his spouse, the Reporting Person has sole voting and investment control over such shares.
