Imagine if we could now target-design medications to signal through specific GPCR receptors... OFI2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586579 What We Do We produce GPCRQTY, mAbc1TY, and ReceptorcITY : synthetic materials created with our patented algorithms to target-design stable water-soluble variants of any desired protein, especially membrane proteins, while maintaining the functionality of the original. The result is a foundational technology: a fundamental tool that opens many doors. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586580 Monetization The ability to produce stable water-soluble versions of proteins that are naturally insoluble brings value to several areas: • Drug Discovery • Research Tools • Diagnostics • mAB-Similar Products • Autoimmune/Allergy Therapy • Viral Therapeutics • Molecular Sensors OH2 is a holding company, ultimately intending to form subsidiaries to monetize each. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586581 Drug Discovery 151P GPCRQTY provides a critical revitalization of drying pharma pipelines: — Addresses compounds with poor solubility (over 40% of drugs) offering increased efficacy and faster, cheaper development. — Enables novel drug candidates for GPCR-mediated diseases: Prostate cancer (GPR68/OGR1) Cancer metastasis (CXCR4) Leukemia (P2Y8/P2 R Y8) Bipolar disorder (GPRS 78) Osteoarthritis (GPR22) Breast Cancer (CXCR4) Parkinson's (GPCR 37) Asthma (CCR3.CXCR2) Ovarian Cancer (OGR1) Autism (GPCR 63) Lung cancer (GPR87) Alzheimer's (GPR3) Arteriosclerosis (GPRS 176) Colon cancer (MASI ) Diabetes (GPCR 21) (Plus over 700 others and the list grows almost daily.) OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586582 Research Tools Providing GPCRQTY, mAbc1TY, and ReceptorQTY products to research laboratories, enables others to explore the benefits of water-soluble proteins. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586583 Diagnostics GPCRQTY materials maintains ligand binding ability to specific antigens/receptors is a low-cost and stable medium enabling a new class of novel, low-cost diagnostics. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586584 mAB-Similar Products mAbQT't' offers new molecular therapeutics: — Target-designed to be similar to monoclonal antibodies, but easier to produce. — Engineered to reduce mAb aggregation and increase long- term storage. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586585 Autoimmune/Allergy Therapy GPCRQTY can be used as a decoy therapy (similar to Enbrel/Etanercept). This approach can theoretically be used for any disease or condition associated with GPCR signaling. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586586 Viral Therapeutics ReceptorsQTY can be use to trap viruses including: HIV, Ebola, Marburg & Lassa - for rapid reduction of viral loads. OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586587 Molecular Sensors Due to their stability, low-cost and high degree of molecular selectivity, Receptorsc/TY can be used to create ultra- sensitive bionic detectors. (e.g. a chip-based bionic nose.) OH2 Laboratories, LLC Confidential and Proprietary EFTA00586588 The Science - Using CXCR4 as an example The following 7 slides explains how we can produce CXCR4QTY , a functional soluble CXCR4 variant. • Re-Coding CXCR4 • Comparing Structures • Comparing Solubility • Thermal Stability • Circular dichroism Spectra • Natural SDF1 ligand Binding • X-Ray Diffraction The variant structure was target-designed, not by trial and error.
