The New Economic Reality

Public Markets: Closed? • Biotech IPO Performance: Very Poor

• 2003-2007 Window: 77 Companies• Average VC Return = 1.9X • Oct 2007 (Market Peak): 59% trading below initial PPS • June 2009: 79% trading below initial PPS• 69% Trading Below Total Invested Capital

• Only 13 Biotech IPOs in the last 24 months; All Performed Poorly* (Reduced Capital Raised; Reduced Offering Price; Trading Below IPO price)

Private Equity: Dramatically Reduced • Venture Investments in Biotech are Down 45+%

• Back to pre=1990s level of capital (PWC Survey)• VCs have fled Early Stage investments • First-Time financings at lowest level in history (down 95%; 3 deals; $1M)

RM Has Made Great Progress, but… ….Challenges Remain

R&D Creation And Characterization Of

Optimal Cells For Therapy– Controlling Differentiation Pathways

Standards For The Field– What is an iPS Cell?

Contaminant Free Cell Lines Safe & Reliable Expansion Track Cell Migration & Engraftment

- Imaging Technology And Biological Markers

Immune Modulation

Manufacturing Technologies For Scale-up

- Safe & Reliable Expansion - Sterility Testing & Validation - Process Control & Reproducibility;

Consistent Lots- Closed Systems

Product Characterization– Safety; Identify; Potency

Process Control : Process Is The Product – COGS; QC; & cGMP

Centralized Vs. Point Of Care

CONFIDENTIAL 25

Page 26: Rm panel at translational rm forum (washington dc; april 6 8, 2011)v.1

…A Few More Challenges

Regulatory& IP Landscape Regulatory Environment Needs Clarity

- Standards & Guidelines Are Evolving

- Characterization

- Safety / Efficacy / Consistency

- Cross Border Inconsistencies

IP Landscape Is Treacherous : “Patent Thicket”

- Fragmented Ownership;

- Patents Proliferating Rapidly : 25% GAGR

- Inconsistent & Competing Patents: Invites Litigation

- Need “Freedom To Operate” Opinions

Business Issues Business Model Questions

- Capital Efficient R&D- Product V. Service Models- Autologous V. Allogeneic

Reimbursement Issues- Cost Savings Justification

Sales & Marketing- Complex Channel Arrangements- Define Marketable “Product”- Educate Consumers Re: New Treatment

Paradigms

The Old “Relay” Model Is Very Capital Intensive

Business Models: • “Platform” Company

• Develop technology horizontally across many therapeutic applications• High research cash burn • Large R&D staff

• “Product” Company (Specialty Pharma)• Apply technology to specific therapeutic applications• Multiple clinical programs• Large clinical trial burn rate

IPO Metrics: • Lead Program in late stage development • Additional “shots on goal” (earlier clinical programs, or platform technologies) • Substantial infrastructure (“bricks & mortar” & staff)

Strategy: Build Company Toward An IPO

Pre-IPO Capital: @$90M
