1 Microchips Biotech Technology
6th Annual Pharmaceutical Program Symposium Innovative access: using technology to improve delivery, quality, and use of medicines March 22, 2017 CONFIDENTIAL • © MICROCHIPS BIOTECH

2 The Microchips Biotech Opportunity
Drug Delivery Drug Adherence Strong Partnerships System Modularity The world’s most advanced electronic implantable drug delivery system with over 15 years of research, engineering and clinical data behind it Tackling the $290 billion problem of drug adherence by integrating revolutionary digitally-controlled drug delivery into the healthcare system Validating partnerships in several important therapeutic areas – TEVA and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Commercially viable platform across multiple applications leveraging our modular system Investors Founders Robert Langer, ScD Michael Cima, PhD CONFIDENTIAL • © MICROCHIPS BIOTECH

3 Overview of Device Platform
Microchip-based Implant Self-contained, battery-powered drug delivery device capable of wireless communication Stores hundreds of therapeutic drug doses for release over months or years Implanted subcutaneously in physician’s office (abdomen or other anatomical locations) 200 Reservoirs; ~ 22 x 28 x 8 mm Reservoirs ~ 22 x 40 x 8 mm CONFIDENTIAL • © MICROCHIPS BIOTECH

4 Overview: How the Technology Works
Drug Storage Individual doses are stored in micro-reservoir arrays Reservoirs are hermetically sealed at room temperature Thin metallic membranes over each reservoir protect drug post-sealing Drug Release Drug doses are initiated automatically on schedule or wirelessly on-demand by patient or clinician Reservoirs are opened via electrothermal activation of membranes Upon opening, interstitial fluid diffuses in and drug diffuses out CONFIDENTIAL • © MICROCHIPS BIOTECH

5 Numerous Real-time Solutions for Drug Adherence
Improving convenience for established therapies that require frequent, long-term dosing, or delivery via injection including freedom from injection pain and infection risk Improving drug effectiveness and outcomes where compliance is critical in both chronic and acute diseases Automatic dosing for patients with compliance difficulties including the elderly, psychiatric patients and patients with cognitive dysfunction Developing countries where patients cannot access regular healthcare Compliance = Improved Outcomes = Improved Healthcare CONFIDENTIAL • © MICROCHIPS BIOTECH

6 Broad Therapeutic Applicability
Microchips Platform Orphan Indications Autoimmune Disorders CVD Chronic Diseases Cognitive Disorders Women’s Health The Microchips platform has broad applicability across therapeutic indications including osteoporosis, diabetes and other chronic diseases and women’s contraception.
