F1 These shares of common stock and these common warrants were acquired directly from Tricida, Inc. (the "Issuer") in a registered direct offering. For each share purchased in the registered direct offering, at a price of $6.00 per share of common stock, the purchaser received one warrant.
F2 These securities are held of record by OrbiMed Private Investments V, LP ("OPI V"). OrbiMed Capital GP V LLC ("GP V") is the general partner of OPI V, and OrbiMed Advisors LLC ("Advisors"), a registered adviser under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended, is the managing member of GP V. By virtue of such relationships, GP V and Advisors may be deemed to have voting and investment power with respect to the shares held by OPI V. Advisors exercises investment and voting power through a management committee comprised of Carl L. Gordon, Sven H. Borho, and W. Carter Neild, each of whom disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares held by OPI V.

Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein for purposes of Rule 16a-1(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any. The Reporting Persons have designated a representative, David P. Bonita ("Bonita"), a member of Advisors, to serve on the Issuer's board of directors. This report shall not be deemed an admission that any of the Reporting Persons, or Bonita, is a beneficial owner of such securities for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or for any other purposes.
F4 These securities are held of record by Bonita. Pursuant to an agreement with Advisors and GP V, Bonita is obligated to transfer these securities, or the economic benefit thereof, to Advisors and GP V, which will in turn ensure that such securities or economic benefits are provided OPI V.
