1 Why Leave a Legacy When You Can Live Your Legacy?

2 Actuaries’ estimate of my life expectancy as of my 55 th Birthday Each square represents one month

3 The Problem The Solution

4 Aging is inevitable. Your squares seem to get used up faster each year… don’t they?

5 Paradigm Shift

6 Maximum Life Foundation  June 23, 2000  Manhattan Beach, Calif.  Manhattan “Beach” Project – –Assemble the world’s leading researchers in a focused effort, much like the World War II ending Manhattan Project. Ours will end suffering and death from aging.

7 Finally Achievable  Wishful thinking for >6000 Years  Not revolutionary  2011 –How long will “they” take?  2033?  2043?  2053? Will you be part of the last generation to die From aging… or part of the first generation to enjoy open-ended strength and vitality? “Don’t be left behind”

8 Law of Accelerating Returns Copyright © Raymond Kurzweil 2001

9 Another Reason  Exponentially Rapid Convergence of… –Biotechnology –Information Technology  The intersection of biotech and infotech makes life extension research subject to the Law of Accelerating Returns –Nanotechnology  Going beyond the limitations of biology

10 Healthful Industry Many popular investments may be ruining our health and shortening our lives Fast Foods Processed Foods Alcoholic and Soft Drinks Tobacco Doesn’t it make sense to commit a portion of our Doesn’t it make sense to commit a portion of our portfolio to investments that cure diseases, promote portfolio to investments that cure diseases, promote wellness and extend healthy life? wellness and extend healthy life?

11 What’s Getting Funded?  Venture capital has slowed dramatically –And only about 5% of biotech VC goes to start-ups  IPO’s have dried up  Basic research primarily university and/or government supported –Little applied research for aging intervention –Mostly age management How about CURE… instead of CARE?

12 Free Market vs Government  Stem Cells  Genomics  Drug Development  Nutraceuticals  Nanotechnology  AI  Telecommunications  Infotech Intervention is the Problem… not the Solution

14 We Don’t Need to Cure Aging Singlehandedly  Push healthspan out –Healthy aging  Pull timeline in  Longevity Escape Velocity  Full court press on low hanging fruit  Funding base for longer-term projects

17 Greta Blackburn, health, fitness pioneer Ray Kurzweil, author, inventor, futurist John Paul DeJoria, co-founder Paul Mitchell, philanthropist Aubrey de Grey, PhD, gerontologist, SENS David Kekich, founder, longevity leader

18 Funding Strategies  Donations  Private Equity –Age Reversal, Inc –Manhattan Beach Project, LP  IPO –Age Reversal, Inc  Asset Preservation (Endowment) –Asset Providers –Fund Managers

19 Our Objectives  Funding  Demonstrate Capability  Open floodgates  Reach Longevity Escape Velocity –Pull all stops for 14 years  Smart, Strong and Sexy at 100… and Beyond –Why not have life begin at 100?

20 Manhattan Beach Project  Concerted effort to pull all the pieces together –Focused we live better and longer, scattered we will be distant memories.  Stop aging by 2029  Demonstrate age-transformation capability in humans by 2033…  … then beyond
