3 Corporate Overview o Developing tecarfarin, a late - stage novel oral and reversible anticoagulant (blood thinner) to prevent heart attacks, strokes an d deaths due to blood clots in patients with certain rare medical conditions where “Legacy” Vitamin K Antagonists ( e.g. warfarin) have failed to achieve sufficiently reliable anticoagulation. These areas include: o End Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) with Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) o Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) o Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) o Tecarfarin was designed as a Vitamin K Antagonist specifically to solve warfarin's metabolism problem via an alternate pathwa y that is abundant and essentially insaturable, providing a much more reliable pharmacokinetic profile. o Orphan drug and Fast track designations for ESKD with AFib providing for 7 - year marketing exclusivity o Phase III remaining for ESKD with AFib; pursuing development for patients with LVADs and/or APS o Tecarfarin has been evaluated in 11 clinical trials in 1,003 subjects and has generally been well - tolerated in healthy adult sub jects and patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). o Approximately $90 million invested in clinical and regulatory work to date. o U.S. market potential estimated in excess of $2 billion for three focused rare medical condition indications. 1 Based upon 2019 study, adjusted for inflation. 3 Late - stage Ready Drug with Orphan Drug and Fast track Designations

5 The Problem: Rare Medical Conditions Lacking Effective Anticoagulation o In 1954, warfarin, first developed as a rat poison, was approved to treat and prevent blood clots. o Warfarin was widely used until 2010 when Pradaxa was approved. o Sub - optimal anticoagulation for the patients with certain rare medical conditions o Between 2010 - 2015, the FDA approved the first innovations in 50+ years to treat and prevent blood clots. o Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) - Pradaxa , Xarelto, Eliquis and Savaysa o DOACs are not prescribed for a wide range of indications, including implanted medical devices for heart diseases, such as left ventricular assist devices o No known ongoing clinical trials or future research for rare medical conditions Tecarfarin is targeted for indications where warfarin FAILS to achieve sufficiently stable anticoagulation and DOACs (Eliquis - class drugs) are NOT widely prescribed for these rare medical conditions.

9 Premium Pay for High Value Cardiovascular Orphan Drugs Developed by FoldRx with $88 million in private financing, before FoldRx was subsequently acquired by Pfizer FDA DESIGNATIONS Orphan Drug, Fast Track, Priority Review & Breakthrough Therapy EXPEDITED APPROVAL Based on ATTR - ACT trial (Transthyretin Amyloidosis Cardiomyopathy Clinical Trial) - randomized 441 patients to tafamidis or placebo for 30 months INVESTIGATORS ASSESSED All - cause mortality followed by CV hospitalizations PRICE $225,000 a year ($616/day) - the most expensive CV dru g YEAR 2 SALES FOLLOWING LAUNCH $1.3 billion collectively for Vyndaqel® and Vyndamax® Developed by MyoKardia and the company was subsequently acquired by BMS for $13 billion FDA DESIGNATIONS Orphan Drug, Priority Review EXPEDITED APPROVAL Based on a 251 - patient study called EXPLORER , in which patients randomized to take the drug had significantly better peak oxygen consumption and improved on a widely used measurement of heart failure when compared to those who got a placebo. INVESTIGATORS ASSESSED The primary composite functional endpoint, assessed at 30 weeks, was defined as the proportion of patients who achieved either improvement of peak oxygen consumption (pVO 2 ) by ≥1.5 mL/kg/min plus improvement in NYHA class by at least 1 or improvement of pVO 2 by ≥3.0 mL/kg/min plus no worsening in NYHA class. PRICE $89,500 a year ($245/day) – one of the most expensive CV dru g NOTABLY The approval came with a warning for the risk of heart failure and an FDA - mandated plan to manage that risk.

10 10 Why Tecarfarin Now? 1. Certain rare medical conditions requiring chronic anticoagulation where warfarin has been unreliable, and DOACs (Eliquis - class drugs) are either contraindicated or not prescribed for these conditions. 2. Tecarfarin provides potentially more stable anticoagulation than warfarin because of its metabolism, thereby de creases the risk of stroke and bleeding . 3. Retrometabolic drug design process targets a different metabolic pathway from the one targeted by warfarin. 4. Provides stable and effective anticoagulation based on studies demonstrating stable INR. 5. Tecarfarin's pharmacokinetics (renal clearance and plasma half - life) were not significantly affected by severe renal impairment. In contrast, warfarin clearance was substantially reduced resulting in a significant increase in half - life based on a head - to - head PK study. 6. Newest class anticoagulants (Factor XIs) are still in development and are not being pursued for these rare medical conditions. Tecarfarin is targeted for indications where warfarin FAILS to achieve sufficiently stable anticoagulation and DOACs (Eliquis - class drugs) are NOT widely prescribed for these rare medical conditions.
