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 perfused (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 CABG procedures will experience at least one vein graft failure within the first year of surgery, principally due to neointimal hyperplasia. CABG patients who experience vein graft failure have a dramatically higher incidence of myocardial infarction, death, revascularizations and hospital readmissions. Reducing vein graft failure in CABG patients by 33% saves the payor at least $10,000 per procedure. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_0 1138824 EFTA02295550 Maji Therapeutics ■ Investment Thesis • CABG failure is "an unmet medical need". • We have the intellectual property. • We have compelling preclinical data. • We can make a compelling pharmco-economic case for reimbursement. We can save more than the therapy will cost the payor. • The market potential for the therapeutic is $7.6B per year. • We can generate "pharmaceutical margins". • THERE IS LITTLE TO NO COMPETITION. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_01138825 EFTA02295551 Prediction BioSciences • Over 2 million strokes in EU and the US alone each year (85% ischemic) - $110 billion annual costs • Only one FDA/EMA approved clot buster -tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) - $1.4 billion WW sales (2014) — $2 billion est. (2018) • t-PA causes fatal bleeding for 6 - 1 1% of treated patients • Presently, there is no reliable way to predict if a patient will suffer a significant bleed following t-PA therapy Ischemic Stroke Occurs when oxygen-nch blood flow to the brain s restricted by a blood clot or other blockage. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_0 1138826 EFTA02295552 Prediction BioSciences First-to-Market Combination Diagnostic/Therapeutic For Ischemic Stroke Biosimilar t-PA Biosimilar of t-PA Producing t-PA in lab Clinical program is developed COGS: 12% of dose Screens 100% of bleeders Point of Care FDA/EMA approved Companion platform Diagnostic Results <15 min (c-Fn) 5 patents; expiring 2032 Avitiamosigue. COGS: $10/test DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_01138827 EFTA02295553 Prediction BioSciences • One approved product (off-patent t-PA) to treat H .7 M ischemic stroke episodes annually (US & EU only). • 30 - 50% of patients treated with t-PA will experience bleeding events, 6 - 1 1% are fatal. • First-to-market therapeutic-diagnostic combination that eliminates the significant risks and liabilities associated with t-PA therapy. • Improved safety profile with similar efficacy drives rapid penetration of existing t-PA patient base and opens new opportunities for market expansion. • Strategic investor in place to cover $17.5 - 24.5 M (65 - 90%) of capital requirements through CYE 2018. $9.3 M needed to reach $150 M enterprise value in 2 years, $25.9 M needed to reach $500M enterprkt value in 4 years. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_0 1138828 EFTA02295554 Prediction BioSciences • What Is It? A biosimilar to 1-PA and companion diagnostic for the prevention of bleeding episodes in ischemic stroke patients. • How Does It Work? Prediction BioSciences' proprietary "theranostic" approach employs a proprietary, rapid diagnostic that selects only those stroke patients with the highest safety profile for treatment, and then treats them with a proprietary biosimilar to t-PA. • Why Is It Important? Lack of effective patient screening results in less-than-desirable safety profile for t- PA, the only approved acute treatment for the -1.7 M ischemic stroke episodes occurring annually (EU & US). This results in only 40% and 25% of eligible patients receiving treatment in the EU and US, respectively. A predictive screen for bleeding episodes in stroke patients would capture significant share of the existing $1.4 B WW (12% AGR) market, and further expand this market opportunity by 2x and 3x in the EU and US. respectively. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_0 1138829 EFTA02295555 Prediction BioSciences ■ Investment Thesis • Strong market need - 30-50% of ischemic stroke patients treated with t-PA will experience bleeding episodes, 6-1 1% of which are fatal. • Highly differentiated product (better safety profile, only proprietary, bundled offering) in an large ($1.4 B) and growing (12% AGR) market. • Short path to commercialization (42 - 48 months) due to advanced state of development & low regulatory hurdle. • Experienced management team with successful track record commercializing biosimilars and companion diagnostics. • Strong patent protection through 2032. • Commitments from strategic partner and other non-dilutive funding sources limit dilution. • Other applications for anti-coagulants in cardiovascular disease represent significant upside.

A patented manufacturing platform, with proprietary genes and novel manufacturing methods for the production of therapeutic enzymes, and human sequence monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. • How Does It Work? OvationBio selects the most active and effective protein for our application. By using our proprietary transgenesis technology, we introduce the gene for this protein into primordial germ cells to create transgenic chicken strains. These transgenic chicken strains produce these proteins in the eggs they lay. The protein is then purified from the eggs for therapeutic applications. Why Is It Important? OvationBio technologies enable the development of completely novel, patentable molecules that can be produced in facilities at 1 /30th of the capital cost and 1 /7'h of the operating costs associated with current production technologies. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_01138836 EFTA02295562 Ovation Bio Investment Thesis • Our patented manufacturing platform yields significant reductions in capital (30x) and operating costs (7x). • Current market opportunity for enzyme replacement therapy, polyclonal antibodies, and factor VIII deficiency is >$30 B. • We already have a significant investor/strategic partners willing to participate, and non-dilutive funding is available. • We have experienced scientific and management teams that have successfully done this before.

Cell Propagation/Concentration incubator GMP Reagents Introduced Cell Activation Incubator DACART CAPITAL LLC Oncolytic agent introduced Patient Infusion Preparation EFTA_R1_01138840 EFTA02295566 ConcentRx Clinical studies (e.g. Dendreon, Juno) have unequivocally shown that combining an appropriate autologous immune cell with an appropriate tumor cell antigen can achieve a demonstrable oncolytic effect in humans. The ConcentRx technology platform further advances the state of the art in autologous immune cell cancer therapies by: • Employing the patient's own enriched, activated T cells as a delivery vehicle to protect the oncolytic agent from the patient's immune system prior to reaching its target. • Highly efficient targeting by employing an abundant and specific tumor cell antigen (NkG2D). • Conferring long term immunity to tumor cells, post-therapy • Incorporating simplified, cost-effective, and scalable immunotherapy production at the point of care. DACART CAPITAL LLC EFTA_R1_01138841 EFTA02295567 ConcentRx • What Is It? A proprietary technology platform that adds critical therapeutic function to a patient's own cells, and allows the formulation of specific strategies to treat disease with a precision medicine approach. The platform enables simplified, scalable and cost-effective therapeutic production at the point of care. ■ How Does It Work? In the ovarian cancer application, autologous blood cells are drawn from the patient, these cells are activated to express molecules that target tumor antigens (NkG2D). An oncolytic agent (vaccinia virus) is incorporated into the targeting T- cells, the T-cells are injected into the patient, where they then target the tumor cells, release the oncolytic agent into the tumor cells, and eradicate the tumor cells via lysis. • Why Is It Important? The technology platform produces oncolytic agents that are highly tumoricidal, and after therapy there is sustained immunity against the cancer type that was treated. The platform has the potential to target all tumor types, and it can confer sustained immunity to all tumor cells (both bulk tumors and metastatic disease).
