4 HAAH is a Cancer Biomarker Panacea discovered that HAAH is elevated in the sera of individuals with cancer We have developed a specific and sensitive immunoassay to detect HAAH in serum We have also developed sensitive qrt-pcr methods for detecting HAAH gene expression These assays may be applied as companion diagnostics in various scenarios where there is currently unmet medical need 4

5 Challenges associated with current Cancer Diagnostics! Current cancer diagnostics tools are not accurate enough! Results turnaround are slow! Associated costs are very high! Early and accurate cancer detection can result in better patient management and cost and Live Saving - Parise, C., et al.

11 HAAH and Cancer Detection in 857 samples HAAH test scatter chart The scatter chart shows the result of HAAH test as a cancer biomarker on a group of 857 patients composed of 211 individuals known not to have cancer and 646 individuals who are diagnosed with cancer. The cancer group is composed of mix of individuals with different types of cancer (Breast, Prostate, Lung, Colon) in various stages from 1-4. Combining the 12 false positive and 34 false negative results, the test has less than 4.6% error even in such a large group of patients. The patient index PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL 11
