1 Confidential Corporate presentation, BIO, Chicago 2013 Developing novel antimicrobials against ”difficult to treat” multi drug resistant bacteria

2 Confidential Summary – Adenium Biotech A spin-out from Novozymes, founded in 2011, strong VC syndicate Management team with extensive experience, industry experienced Board of Directors and strong Scientific Advisory Board of KOL´s ”First-in-class” Arenicin compounds with potent and selective activity against multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria - Lead optimization w. selection of clinical candidate/back-ups in 2013 - ”First in man” by end of 2014 Funding requirement: - USD 10 mio to progress through phase I - USD 25 mio to progress through clinical ”proof of concept” in phase II 2

3 Confidential Adenium Biotech ApS Management: - Peter Nordkild, MD, CEO, ex Novo Nordisk, Ferring, Egalet, ARTS Biologics - Søren Neve, PhD, project dir, ex Lundbeck, Novozymes Investors: - Novo Seeds - Sunstone Capital Board of Directors: - Khalid Islam, PhD, ex Arpida, chairman - Anker Lundmose, MD, ex Novo Nordisk, OSI Pharmaceuticals - Andreas Segerros, MSc, MBA, Sunstone Capital - Stephan Christgau, PhD, Novo Seeds - Casper Tind Hansen, MSc, Novo Ventures - Ejner Bech Jensen, MSc, VP R&D Novozymes A/S Scientific advisory board: - Prof Brad Spellberg, US - Prof David Livermore, UK - Dr Bruce Montgomery, US - Dr Frank Fildes, UK - Prof Matt Cooper, AUS 3

4 Confidential Arenicin selection process: Adenium benefits from extensive know how ~40 AMP’s identified Several G+ but only one G- identified ! > 500 organisms screened for antimicrobial activity 4

5 Confidential Medical need for broad spectrum Gram-negative antimicrobial Bacteria are rapidly becoming resistant to known antibiotics - 160.000 patients with nosocomial XDR Gram-negative infections in 2011 in USA alone - Carbapenem resistant Klebsiella increased from < 5 % to 29.6% in Italy over 5 years Increasing resistance even to last and toxic resorts e.g. Colistin GAIN legislation approved to grant priority review, fast track status and extend market exclusivity period with 5 years GAIN pathogens: Acinetobacter, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas and E. Coli 5

6 Confidential Ideal Target Product Profile for multidrug resistant broad spectrum Gram-negative antimicrobial Novel mode of action Bactericidal Selective and specific Low frequency of resistance Active against GAIN pathogens Chemically amenable 6

7 Confidential Arenicin: Unique MoA and broad spectrum Gram-negative activity Arenicin is bactericidal with a novel dual mode of action –Bacterial membrane penetration –Protein synthesis inhibition Selective and specific: no haemolytic or cytotoxic activity in mammalian cells Very low spontaneous mutational frequency and resistance Broad spectrum activities against a wide range of XDR Gram- negative pathogens Wide therapeutic window. 50 – 200 fold difference between effective dose and MTD in vivo 21 AA peptide synthesized by standard solid phase synthesis 7

8 Confidential P. aeruginosa incubated with 32 μg/mL AA143. Red arrow shows the membrane disruption. Blue arrow shows release of the cytoplasm. TEM of P.aeruginosa after incubation with AA143 Arenicin-3 and the cell membrane -MoA Extracellular ATP after 10 min x MIC Fold change Arenicin (Ar), colistin (col), and piperacillin (pip) induced release of ATP from E. coli. Exponential cells were incubated with drug for 10 minutes and ATP measured. y- axis is fold change relative to untreated and x-axis is fold MIC applied. 8

12 Confidential Arenicin shows good activity in animal models of UTI and Pneumonia 12 Arenicin shows good efficacy in the UTI model with ED50 at 1.8 mg/kg in the bladder Arenicin exhibits bioload reduction similar to Meropenem in the Pneumonia model

13 Confidential Arenicin is well tolerated with a wide therapeutic window Favorable MTD in mini-pigs and mice at 30-50 mg/kg No observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) at 30 mg/kg Therapeutic window (NOAEL/ED50 bladder) of 75 Three times longer half-life than Meropenem in mini-pigs Well distributed with a high volume of distribution of 900 ml 13

15 Confidential Key Value Drivers for Investment Broad spectrum XDR Gram-negative first in class drug with unique MoA and strong patent position Significantly increased interest in antimicrobials area with GAIN Act/LPAD introduction No new MoA programs in clinical development Good safety and tox properties and solid in vivo PoC package Phase II data package to be established for USD 25 mio Experienced team to execute development plan 15

16 Confidential Plectasin – an MRSA/VISA/GISA opportunity MRSA is the largest XDR pathogen Very compelling Plectasin MICs against MRSA & GISA Plectasin superior to Daptomycin/Vancomycin in infectious endocarditis MRSA device/implant infections is a large unmet need 16
