Contemporaneously, Sophia Randolph, M.D., Ph.D., the Company’s Chief Medical Officer, was appointed to the Board to fill the newly created vacancy. Dr. Randolph will serve as a Class I director, with a term expiring at the Company’s 2021 annual meeting of the stockholders. Dr. Randolph will not serve as a member of any committee of the Board.

Dr. Randolph has served as the Company’s Chief Medical Officer since June 2016 and as an employee director will not receive any additional compensation as a result of her appointment as a director of the Company.
