25 Rheumatoid arthritis: a huge market opportunity The overall RA market is expected to grow at a CAGR of slightly above 7% to approximately $23.4Bn in 2016 On a dollar basis, the market is dominated by biologic drugs (>80% of the market), and especially by antibodies which block tumor necrosis factor TNF 1 (5 out of the 9 currently approved biologicals 2 ) with average annual cost of ~$19k Despite a wide variety of therapeutic options, a high level of unmet patient need exists Early Rheumatoid Arthritis target acute & inflammatory disease state induce and maintain low disease activity after failure of high dose MTX +/- corticosteroids avoid patients entering into long-term biologics use for symptomatic control indication of Cx611 activity evidenced in refractory patients in Phase IIa trial 1 Wiki Analysis: Arthritis Drug market 2 Humira, Enbrel, Remicade, Simponi and Cimzia 25

30 Cx611 Intravenous injection of eascs for the treatment of severe sepsis 30

31 Severe sepsis: a high unmet medical need Systemic illness due to an attack of host pro-inflammatory cytokines and other humoral substances commonly induced by a bacterial infection Incidence forecasted to grow at 1.5% p.a. 4 An estimated 15 19M sepsis cases occur worldwide each year 1 Incidence is estimated at approx. 300 cases per 100,000 population p.a. 2 Incidence has dramatically increased over the last decade (CAGR of 8-13%) 3 Sepsis mortality was estimated at 36% in a recent major European study 3 In the case of septic shock, mortality can reach up to 80% (28 50% of patients die within the first month of diagnosis) 4 1 The Lancet Infectious Diseases; Volume 12; issue 2; page 89; February Hall MJ et al.

32 The Challenge: a disease-modifying agent that targets the underlying immune dysfunction Current molecular approaches to the treatment of sepsis have inadequately addressed the complex immuno-modulatory pathways involved in sepsis pathogenesis. Cellular therapies offer a novel multifaceted mechanism of action that is potentially able to address the underlying immune dysregulation through multiple pathways.

35 Phase I trial synopsis and rationale: CELLULA 1 study Evaluation of the therapeutic effect of eascs on the inflammatory response to LPS 2 in healthy volunteers TRIAL SUMMARY Start Q Expected completion Objective Study design Enrolment # of centres Primary endpoint Q effect of eascs on inflammatory response to LPS parallel groups: 0,250M, 1M and 4M eascs/kg and placebo randomisation scheme: 3:1 32 healthy volunteers 1 (Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam) vital signs and symptoms laboratory measures and functional assays of innate immunity Rationale Model mimics clinical signs of sepsis fever, chills headache, myalgia nausea mild tachycardia insignificant change in blood pressure Genomic response similar as in sepsis (not the case for animal studies) Provides proof-of-principle: essential information on the mechanism of action of eascs to counteract the consequences of an LPS exposure Results will guide for a proposed phase II study in severe sepsis 1 The effect of expanded human allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal adult stem cells on the human response to lipopolysaccharide in human volunteers 2 lipopolysaccharide 35

36 CELLULA trial results, May 2015 Safety and tolerability of Cx611 in sepsis challenge model confirmed Results Favourable safety and tolerability profile of Cx611, consistent with Phase I/IIa in refractory RA patients No significant effect of Cx611 on the short-term lipopolysaccharide-induced symptoms could be detected Main conclusions from this sepsis challenge model Cx611 efficacy in significantly reducing mortality has been demonstrated in several animal models of sepsis through a combination of reduced inflammation, production of anti-microbial effectors, and increased phagocytosis The timeframe in the sepsis challenge model in healthy volunteers of only 24 hours may have been too short to allow Cx611 to exert its effect Severe sepsis patients display a much higher level and persistence of inflammation which is expected to provide the necessary signals for the activation of Cx611 to positively interfere with the underlying inflammatory process 36

37 AlloCSC-01 Intracoronary administration of allogeneic cardiac stem cells for the treatment of acute ischaemic heart disease 37

38 Relevance and product profile Relevance 1,9M AMIs (US+EU) 1 occur annually, mostly treated by PCI and stent implantation Successful treatment of AMI has contributed to a Chronic Heart Failure epidemic (26M patients worldwide 2 ) CHF post-mi is a terminal disease with an annual mortality rate of ~18% after the first episode, for which no curative treatment exists with the exception of heart transplantation Myocardial repair seems to be the only feasible treatment to address the post-acute phase of the disease and prevent the onset of CHF In 2010, the AHA estimated that the direct and indirect cost of heart failure in the United States was $39 billion, half of which was related to repeated hospitalizations, and by 2030 the total cost of heart failure in the United States is projected to increase to $70 billion 3 These figures suggest an attractive market for a treatment able to mitigate or delay the onset of CHF for a significant proportion of the patient population 1. Datamonitor: Stakeholder Insight: Acute coronary syndromes, DMHC2347, Ambrosy PA et al.. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2014;63: LloydJ ones et al Circulation 2010 Feb 23;121(7):e46-e

39 Relevance and product profile Product profile: the challenge of preventing the onset of the chronic disease The formation of a non-functional scar tissue gives rise to a process of ventricular remodeling whereby the myocardium tries to compensate the effect of the injury Overtime the heart dilates losing its contractile capacity causing the onset of CHF. This is a terminal condition with no treatment other than transplantation The severity of this process is related to the size of the scar resulting from the AMI. Smaller scars are related to better outcomes 1 Myocardial repair seems to be the only feasible treatment to address the post-acute phase of the disease and prevent the onset of CHF 1.

40 Relevance and product profile AlloCSC-01 as a regenerative treatment for AMI: MoA consists of three axis Cardioprotection Secretion of protective factors in the recently damaged myocardium reduce cell death produced by acute ischemia and reperfusion, thus salvaging valuable tissue. Inflammatory control Reduced scarring of cardiac tissue during healing of the infarcted region through control of the inflammatory process, leading to improved prognosis. Tissue regeneration New viable tissue appears following treatment with CSCs ameliorating the functional capacity of the myocardium. 40
