Pharmaceutical Licensing Partnerships and Alliance Management Conference July 18-19, 2011 Philadelphia, PA
Introduction
Alliances between small players (biotech, academia, small companies) and big pharma have been driving the innovation in the biopharma industry for years. Small companies / inventors aspire to be acquired by big pharma to leverage its financial, regulatory and commercial capabilities to market the inventions and maximize their value.
The current partnering landscape has become increasingly competitive. Both sell and buy side experience an intense pressure to be selected as the partner of choice. An effective partnership requires the understanding of each other’s perspective. The value of the initiative goes above and beyond the financial transaction and could bring learning and growing opportunities.
International alliances brings additional dimensions if both partners are willing to be creative in the deal structure leveraging each other core competencies.

Overview
¨ Sell and Buy Side expectations/ perspectives
¨ How to address the gaps, leveraging partner’s resources
¨ Considerations to maximize the partnership
July 18-19, 2011|DRM BioPharmSource
Rational for Partnership: Mutual Benefit : Incremental Value Drivers for collaboration :
¨ Buy Side : Big Pharma ¤ High Value, fast speed, low cost innovation to fill the gaps of their pipeline
n Buy side is continuing to increasing its emphasis on late stage deals, shorter term revenues and lowered risk
n Partners selection based on institutionalized due diligence process for risk assessment. A seamless product introduction and reliable quality and supply as if the product is developed/manufactured internally
¨ Sell Side : Small Bio-tech/Start ups/Academia ¤ Commercial ( Sales, Marketing, P &R) Regulatory Capabilities, to market its invention and
maximize its value n Partners who can clearly demonstrate a credible value maximization, solid capabilities, risk
sharing and creativity in deal structures. ¤ Financial Resources
n Sell Side, struggling with the balancing act of raising capital and the challenges to get regulatory approval may choose as a best alternative partnering/ selling out to cash rich big pharma
¤ Development of additional capabilities July 18-19, 2011|DRM BioPharmSource
What each partner brings to the table
Small Companies Big Pharma
Restless / Results oriented Reliable Business Process
Unconventional/ Entrepreneurs Global Regulatory and Commercial Strengths
Risk affined Calculated risks
Innovation minded Global Manufacturing Network Capabilities
Flexible, adaptable
Pursue differentiation as a competitive advantage
External Funding Dependent High Financial resources
Broad Network of Collaborators Established Business Process, Logistics, Supply Chain

What a partner continues to look for - value creation (Sell Side Companies Perspective)
Synergies and Gaps
¨ There is synergy between the expectations of the sell side and the strategies of the buy side on : ¤ Sell Side looks to complement the Regulatory and Commercial
capabilities they are lacking ¤ Big Pharma continues to strengthen their commercial and regulatory
capabilities. ¤ Deal structure considers expanded roles for licensors
¨ GAPS: Both Sell side and Buy side Outsource R&D and Mfg. which may increase the risk of the initiative ¤ Big Pharma has increased the outsourcing of R&D and
Manufacturing, placing more emphasis in selection of CMO’s and supportive entities for product development. n Sell side could enable Buy Side resources to address this potential risk
July 18-19, 2011|DRM BioPharmSource
How to address the gaps leveraging the partner’s resources?
¨ Seek for synergistic/complimentary/ reliable partnerships in earlier stages ¤ Value Chain of Key players: CMOs/ Academia/CROs/others small to mid-size companies
¨ Considerations ¤ CMO’s - Highly reputable, reliable quality and supply (Patheon, Catalent, DSM, Lonza,
etc.) n Using the partner’s network of strategic suppliers and global external supply resources n Incentives
n Small company: De-risk due diligence process n CMO: Commitment to M&S
¤ Academia- Low Cost, great reservoir of expertise n Leverage on Pharma and Academia and Regulatory Agencies joint initiatives ( ex. Rutgers
University -NSF Engineering Research Center on Structured Organic Particulate Systems n Overcome the IP disputes that delays opportunities for collaboration
¤ CRO’s : Cost and Risk management of clinical studies n Low Cost locations- Highly reputable CRO’s used by big Pharma n Use of technology to predict rate of success of clinical studies

Academia
July 18-19, 2011|DRM BioPharmSource
Partnership with Academia
¨ Universities can be great partners: Great reservoirs of expertise at a lower cost - Extensive instrumentation and modeling methodologies - Inexpensive, highly trained labor (Graduate Students and postdocs)
- Forum for collaboration between Pharma and Regulatory Agencies
¨ To maximize these positives:
- Overcome struggles about IP: - Restrict the scope of the university contract to roles that are not likely to generate IP: perform
measurements, obtain access to instrumentation, generate data, provide analytical services, etc. Such services can be accessed through "service agreements” that are much faster to negotiate and do not compromise IP
- For scientific support, retain the academic as a consultant.
- Students, once they graduate, are excellent recruits that already know the company – and the company has a chance to get to know them while they work on company-sponsored projects
July 18-19, 2011|DRM BioPharmSource
Partnership with Academia
¨ Resources of Big Pharma are dedicated to sponsor industry driven research:
¤ Drug discovery
¤ Drug Delivery
¤ Quality by Design and Process Analytical Technologies
¤ Support for product/process development

BioVista
¨ COSS™ is a proprietary very large scale profiling technology specifically developed to address the need for pipeline value enhancement and improved patient cohort stratification.
¨ It uses very large scale mechanism of action (M o A) profiling to generate four solutions: ¤ Find novel indications for any drug, beyond the ones they were initially
developed for ¤ Identify novel, mature chemistries against targets and mechanisms ¤ Identify new biology and novel targets for diseases of interest ¤ Develop M o A- based patient cohort stratification and inclusion /exclusion
criteria that may be used in RMPs by profiling M o A of AE’s of any drug prior to or during clinical trials
¨ The technology helps prioritize and “kill” programs with elevated risks of MoA based attrition due to Safety or efficacy
