The number of shares to be issued in respect of PSUs has been calculated based on the assumption that the maximum level of performance applicable to the PSUs has been achieved. The Winfrey Option was approved by the written consent of Artal Luxembourg S.A. which, as of the date thereof, controlled a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock.

Business—History—Winfrey Transaction” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(2)
Reflects the weighted average exercise price of outstanding stock options. This weighted average does not reflect the shares that will be issued upon the vesting of outstanding RSUs and PSUs because such equity awards have no exercise price.
(3)
Consists of shares of our common stock available for future issuance under our 2014 Plan, pursuant to various awards our Board of Directors’ Compensation and Benefits Committee may make, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, RSUs, restricted stock, performance-based awards and other equity-based awards.
(4)
Consists of 750,000 aggregate shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted on March 21, 2022 to Sima Sistani, our former Chief Executive Officer, in connection with her prior appointment as our Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Sistani's inducement stock options were granted in reliance on the employment inducement exemption provided under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). Ms. Sistani's stock options have a seven year term and proportionately vest annually over a four year period which began with the first anniversary of her March 21, 2022 employment commencement date. When Ms. Sistani ceased serving as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer effective September 27, 2024, all of her then unvested stock options were immediately cancelled. While such inducement stock options were not awarded pursuant to our 2014 Plan, they are subject to the same terms and conditions of the 2014 Plan.
