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 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.

■ 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.

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.

■ 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.

Ovation Bio
• What Is It?
The egg - a novel bioreactor. 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.

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.

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).
