Explanation of Responses:
1. On October 11, 2016, Canaan IX L.P. (the "Canaan Fund") distributed, for no consideration, 300,000 shares of Common Stock of the issuer (the "Shares") to its limited partners and to Canaan Partners IX LLC ("Canaan IX" and, together with the Canaan Fund, the "Canaan Entities"), the general partner of the Canaan Fund, representing each such partner's pro rata interest in the shares held by the Canaan Fund. On the same date, Canaan IX distributed, for no consideration, the Shares it received from the distribution to its members in an amount equal to each such member's pro rata interest in the Shares. The aforementioned distributions were made in accordance with the exemptions afforded by Rule 16a-13 and Rule 16a-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
2. The shares are held directly by the Canaan Fund. Canaan IX, is the sole general partner of the Canaan Fund, and each may be deemed to have sole voting, investment and dispositive power with respect to the shares held by the Canaan Fund. Timothy Shannon, a non-managing member of Canaan IX, serves as representative of the Canaan Entities on the issuer's board of directors. Canaan IX disclaims Section 16 beneficial ownership of the securities held by the Canaan Fund, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any.

and with any other entity when and if such is mandated by the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act or by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, granting
unto such Attorney-In-Fact full power and authority to do and perform each and
every act and thing requisite and necessary fully to all intents and purposes as
the Grantor might or could do in person thereby, and ratifying and confirming
all that such Attorney-In-Fact, or his or her substitute or substitutes, may
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof, or may have done in connection
with the matters described above.  By this power of attorney, each Grantor
hereby revokes all previous powers of attorney granted by him, her or it to any
Attorney-In-Fact or any other employee, representative or agent of Canaan
Partners relating to the matters described above.

       2.	Effective Date and Termination.  This power of attorney shall be
effective as to each Grantor as of such Grantor's Effective Date and shall
remain in full force and effect with respect to each Grantor and each
Attorney- In-Fact until:

             (a)	in the case of any Grantor that is an individual, the
earlier of the date on which this power of attorney is revoked in writing by
such Grantor solely as it relates to himself or herself and such Grantor's
Termination Date (as defined below);

             (b)	in the case of any Grantor that is an entity, the earlier of
the date on which this power of attorney is revoked in writing by such Grantor
solely as it relates to itself and the filing by such entity of a certificate of
cancellation or notice of dissolution with the jurisdiction in which it was
organized evidencing such entity's complete dissolution and termination under
the laws of such jurisdiction; and

             (c)	in the case of any Attorney-In-Fact, such Attorney-In-Fact's
Termination Date.

For purposes of the foregoing, "Termination Date" means (i) with respect to any
Grantor or Attorney-In-Fact that is a member or manager of any Canaan General
Partner, the date on which such Grantor becomes a "retired member" of any Canaan
General Partner or, if later, the date on which his, her or its employment with
Canaan Partners terminates for any reason and (ii) with respect to any other
Grantor or Attorney-In-Fact, the date on which his, her or its employment with
Canaan Partners terminates for any reason.

       3.	Miscellaneous.  Each of the Grantors may execute this power of
attorney in separate counterparts, and each counterpart shall be deemed to be an
original instrument.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of Delaware, without regard for choice-of- law provisions.

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Power of Attorney has been signed as of the
respective dates set forth below.
