Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Activity

In 2025, the Company granted performance-based restricted stock units, or PSUs, whereby vesting depends upon the occurrence of certain milestone events, or the 2025 PSUs. When the achievement of milestone events, which include certain clinical milestones related to avexitide for the treatment of PBH, becomes probable, compensation cost will be recognized from the grant date over the requisite service period and a cumulative catch-up adjustment will be recorded to reflect the portion of the employees' requisite service that has been provided to date. As of March 31, 2026, none of the milestone events related to the 2025 PSUs had been deemed probable of being achieved.
