  3. Lexaria Bioscience – Corporate Highlights ▪ Introducing Lexaria’s disruptive, patented DehydraTECH ™ : ▪ DehydraTECH changes how the body detects and absorbs lipophilic (i.e. fat soluble) beneficial compounds; ▪ Faster onset/offset and higher bioavailability in capsules, pills, foods, liquids, powders, etc.; ▪ Also tested in topical product formats with faster/higher bioabsorption rates; and ▪ 16 patents granted (>60 pending) covering method-of-use , composition-of-matter and medical treatment claims ▪ Lexaria is focused on commercializing its DehydraTECH technology mainly through strategic partners and licensees in the pharmaceutical and consumer products industries ▪ In-use in CPG products sold in the USA ▪ Human studies beginning for DehydraTECH application to antivirals (COVID-19 and other conditions) ▪ Applied R&D ongoing for new CPG/pharma offerings for Nicotine, NSAIDs (Ibuprofen, Aspirin) PDE5 Inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis) and other compounds 3

  6. How Does DehydraTECH ™ Work? Process: Results: 1) Combine API and Fatty Acid Oil Fatty acids are believed to block and shunt bound APIs away from bitter + taste receptors* Lipids enable gastric e.g.: Cannabidiol LCFA: sunflower oil protection and rapid 2) Apply to food/carrier particles passage** Small intestine quickly absorbs LCFAs into lymphatics e.g.: sorbitol, gum Arabic, etc. (bypassing first 3) Perform dehydration procedure pass liver effect) and Colloidal Complex MCFAs via the 4) Render as powder or liquid nanoemulsion liver*** suitable for use in desired final form factor *Coupland & Hayes (2014). Pharm Res. Nov 31(11); 2921-2939 API = Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient **Soehngen et al., (1998). Arthritis & Rheumatism. Vol 31, No. 3.

  8. COVID-19 Pandemic • Global pandemic spreading uncontrollably • No available preventative vaccine • Researchers world-wide are investigating antiviral and other therapies to potentially fight infection • Oral therapies needed for mass distribution • Many oral antiviral drugs are fat soluble and poorly absorbed orally, compromising potency and are exceptionally expensive , limiting access if hundreds of millions of doses are required. 8 8

  10. DehydraTECH Antiviral Research Beginning • DehydraTECH is clinically proven to significantly increase bioavailability for fat soluble drugs • Initial study testing three antiviral medications • Pilot human study at a leading Canadian university planned • Objective is to increase potency for greater therapeutic response and tolerability and to lower cost • Research expected to lead to expanded safety and efficacy testing in coronavirus and other infectious disease animal models • Significant strategic partnering potential 10 10
