Ovation Therapeutics
■ What Is It?
Ovation has a proprietary platform to create next-generation polyclonal antibody
therapeutics and improved monoclonal antibody therapeutics.
■ How Does It Work?
Ovation's genetically modified chickens (transgenic) contain a humanized immune
system that can generate human sequence polyclonal antibodies. The ability to make
these humanized antibodies is passed to the offspring. The transgenic chickens can be
immunized to generate antibodies that are specific to target antigen challenges.
The transgenic chickens produce their polyclonal antibodies in the yolk of the eggs they
lay. The therapeutic protein is purified from the egg for clinical use. A small flock of
chickens is sufficient to generate commercial quantities of disease-specific therapeutics.
■ Why Is It Important?
Although monoclonal antibodies will generate over $26B in pharmaceutical sales in 2010,
monoclonal antibodies target only individual disease related molecules. However,
diseases are complex with many molecular components, and in fact, our natural immune
response is polyclonal. Polyclonal antibodies offer the promise of significantly more
effective therapeutics for a wide range of human diseases.
DACART C:API JAL LLC:
EFTA00506167
Ovation Therapeutics
■ Investment Thesis
• Ovation has demonstrated proof of concept by humanizing a part of the
chicken antibody locus and demonstrating an antigen specific immune
response. The next significant value inflection for the company is the production
of humanized polyclonal antibodies that are specific to a disease (in Q4, 2012),
which will occur well in advance of an FDA approval of an actual polyclonal
product.
• We have the intellectual property.
• We have significant scientific and commercial validation from strategic
partnerships and government grants.
• Our system can both discover and produce commercial quantities of human
sequence polyclonal antibodies, and to do it on extremely cost-effective basis.
• EVERY PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY WILL BE INTERESTED IN THIS TECHNOLOGY.

Maji Therapeutics
■ What Is It?
A unique and patented method for preventing the failure of coronary artery
bypass grafts.
■ How Does It Work?
The genetically engineered therapeutic virus, with which the veins are profused
(prior to transplant), stops the rapid, smooth muscle cell growth on the interior walls
of transplanted veins. This rapid growth of smooth muscle cells (called neointimal
hyperplasia) occurs because the transplanted veins are not used to the
hydrodynamic pressures they are subjected to when they are converted from veins
to arteries .
■ Why Is It Important?
46.3% of all GABG procedures fail within the first year of surgery due to neointimal
hyperplasia. These grafts then need to be either repaired or redone at a medical
cost of $105K per failure, and not to mention the "quality of life" cost to the patient.

SurgOptix
•
What Is It?
A way to positively distinguish diseased and damaged tissue from healthy tissue
during surgery. The initial focus will be on detecting primary and metastatic
cancers that would otherwise be invisible to the surgeon.
•
How Does It Work?
The integrated system consists of a "targeting optical contrast agent" that is
specific for the patient's cancer, and a "low light optical imaging camera" which is
used by the surgeon to view the surgical site. The targeting optical contrast agent
is administered systemically and carries a fluorescent probe to the tumor cells
specifically. When the fluorescent probe is exposed to laser light, it "fluoresces".
When the patient is "opened up" and the surgeon shines the laser light on the
surgical site, only the cancer cells will light up. This fluorescence is only visible
through the highly sensitive imaging system. Simultaneously, real-time video with
visible light showing color of the operation field is provided. The surgeon can select
either the fluorescent video mode, color image mode or a fused video of both
fluorescence and color. The surgeon uses the imaging system to view the surgical
site and removes only glowing "cancerous" cells.
■
Why Is It Important?
Being able to remove ALL the cancer cells without removing excessive healthy
tissue is the Holy Grail in oncology surgery. It is estimated that by removing all the

cancer cells, patient survival will improve by iu/o.

What Is It?
An equipment module, consisting of a novel bioreactor and proprietary
organisms, that "bolts onto" an existing refinery and converts waste CO2 into
high value end-product (ethanol), thereby dramatically improving production
yield and plant economics.
■
How Does It Work?
33 - 50% of total biomass carbon used to produce ethanol is released into the
atmosphere as waste CO2. Cygnet's technology captures and converts CO2 to
ethanol, resulting in -20% more production yield per unit of feedstock.

U.S. government mandates that X billion of this fuel be classified as renewable.
Corn-derived ethanol is the predominant (>95%) renewable fuel , but rising
