Forward Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not based on historical fact and include statements regarding Alpine’s platform technology, potential therapies, potential milestone and royalty payments, future development plans, clinical and regulatory objectives and the timingthereof, expectations regarding the sufficiency of cash to fund operations through 2023, expectations regarding the plans of itscollaborators, expectations of future collaborations, and expectations regarding the potential efficacy and commercial potential of Alpine’s and its collaborator’s product candidates. Forward-looking statements generally include statements that are predictive in nature and depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, and include words such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “would”, “expect”, “plan”, “intend”, and other similar expressions among others. These forward-looking statements are based on current assumptions involving risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results, events, or developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, include, but are not limited to: Alpine’s programs may not advance into the clinic or result inapproved products on a timely or cost-effective basis or at all; Alpine may not achieve additional milestone payments pursuant to its collaborations; the impact of competition; adverse conditions in the general domestic and global economic markets; as well as the other risks identified in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, Alpine undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

ALPN-101: Dual-Targeted for Naïve and Activated Pathogenic Cells
CD28ICOS
Naïve T cells • Express CD28
Activated/Effector/Memory• Upregulate the highly related
costimulatory receptor ICOS
• Often downregulate CD28
ICOS is particularly important in:• Follicular helper T cells (TFH) and
germinal center reactions
• T-dept B cell activity – e.g., antibody
• T cell memory
NEED TO BLOCK BOTH:• CD28: new / naïve cells
• ICOS: activated cells
