  8. Cell Pouch Human Clinical Evaluation

  9. Type 1 Diabetes: 1 st Clinical Indication “ Hypoglycemia unawareness ” affects about 10% of Type 1 Diabetes patients or about 125k patients in the US • Clinically defined as a complication of diabetes in which the patient is unaware of a deep drop in blood sugar levels • Failure to trigger secretion of epinephrine a/k/a the symptoms of hypoglycemia (Palpitations, Anxiety, Excessive Sweating, Light Headedness) • Patients live in constant fear of their next diabetic episode 9

  10. Type 1 Diabetes : First-in-Human Study Study Design 2015 • Diabetes subjects with hypoglycemia unawareness • Open-label; single-arm • Donor islet transplantation 2-24 weeks post Cell Pouch™ implantation • Primary endpoint • Safety post Cell Pouch™ implantation and 1 month post islet transplantation Cell Pouch™ and Islet Safety Met • Safety successfully met for the Cell Pouch™ • Cell Pouch™ histology assessed by independent pathologists blinded to the treatment • Islets housed within a natural tissue matrix • Islets are well-vascularized • Islet safety successfully met • Islets show evidence of insulin, somatostatin, & glucagon • Cell Pouch™ and islet biocompatibility met • Proof of islet protection from immune system attack 10

  12. Chicago Phase I/II Study

  13. Phase I/II U.S. FDA Cleared Study Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy Study of Sernova’s Cell Pouch™ for Clinical Islet Transplantation Study design: A open-label, single-arm study of Sernova Cell Pouch implanted with islets. Islets are transplanted into the Cell Pouch after implantation and stable antirejection medication activity Primary Objective : To demonstrate the safety and tolerability of islet transplantation into the Cell Pouch for the treatment of TID in subject with hypoglycemia unawareness and a history of severe hypoglycemic episodes. Secondary Objectives: To establish islet release criteria that accurately characterize the islet product and are predictive of clinical transplant outcomes into the Cell Pouch, which will be demonstrated through defined efficacy measures • Survival of endocrine tissue in the Cell Pouch • Proportion of subjects with a reduction in severe hypoglycemic events • Proportion of subjects with a reduction in HbA1c >1mg% • Over 20 additional endpoint analyses will occur Status: US IND Cleared by FDA and IRB and patient enrolment initiated; Medtronic Minimed, Northridge, CA CGM is supplying patients in Sernova’s U.S. regenerative medicine clinical trial of its Cell Pouch ; Next step: Interim safety and efficacy results 13

Phase I/II Timeline Secondary Endpoints: Immuno Survival of Endocrine Tissue & Identification of Hormones Suppression Reduction in hypoglycemic events Introduced Reduction in HbA1c Small ( sentinel ) Pouches Removed 1 st Islet Dose Cell Pouch™ Transplant Implantation Day 0 Day180 Day365 90 Days 90 Days 3-4 weeks 3weeks Immunosuppression Cell Pouch Vascularization Stabilized Additional Safety Assessments Feb 2019 Apr 2020 Completed Days 30, 60, 270 Day0 Day180 Day365 Post-Transplant 90 Days 90 Days 2nd Islet Primary Endpoint: Nov 2020 Transplant Initial Topline Safety Readout (increase dose) Safety Efficacy 14

  15. Case Report of the First Treated Patient

  16. Primary Endpoint- Safety Measures Patient Number 1: Interim Findings Safety- incidence and severity of adverse events determined to be probable or highly probable to the Cell Pouch ™ 1. No incidences of AEs, determined to be probable or highly probable to the Cell Pouch™ 2. Cell Pouch™ well-tolerated and safe during the implant and the time of transplant 3. No reactions to the Cell Pouch™ implant 4. Cell Pouch™ was well-incorporated with vascularized tissue and deemed suitable to receive the islet transplant These interim safety data meet the first measure of the primary endpoint

  17. Secondary Objectives/ Endpoints To establish islet release criteria that: 1. accurately characterize the islet product and 2. are predictive of clinical transplant outcomes into the Cell Pouch ™ , which will be demonstrated through defined efficacy measures Survival of endocrine tissue in the Cell Pouch ™ Proportion of subjects with a reduction in severe hypoglycemic events Proportion of subjects with a reduction in HbA1c >1mg% Over 20 additional endpoint analyses

  18. First Patient Initial Efficacy Results 90 Day Post-Transplant PRE ISLET 3 MONTHS Glucose Tolerance Test TRANSPLANT POST TRANSPLANT Patient is given a high sugar BODYWEIGHT 83KG 73KG drink. C-peptide and insulin response is measured over HEMOGLOBIN 6.5 5.6* several hours A1C • Showed increase in blood DAILY USE OF 14 U 8U* levels of C-Peptide LONG ACTING • Showed increase in blood INSULIN TRESIBA levels of Insulin and a typical insulin response DAILY USE OF 15-16 14-15* • Conclusion: Definitive SHORT ACTING proof that the Cell Pouch INSULIN islets are surviving and SEVERE 6-9/ 3months 1/ 3months* able to respond to high HYPOGLYCEMIC levels of sugar by EVENTS releasing insulin 18 * Showed improvement with transplanted Cell Pouch
