  1. 1Q2014 CONFIDENTIAL Theralase Technologies Inc. Roger Dumoulin-White President, Chief Executive Officer Chapter Title Section

  2. Company Anti Cancer Platform Technology Patented anti-cancer drugs known as Photo Dynamic Compounds (PDCs) localize to the DNA of cancer cells and when light activated destroy the DNA resulting in natural cell death (apoptosis) Highlights Up to 100% cancer cell kill at very low concentrations (< 0.8µM) Virtually 0% toxicity at high concentrations (> 100µM) leading to very high safety profile More effective at killing cancer cells than FDA approved drugs (668,000 x ALA, 198 x PHOTOFRIN) No side effects were observed from treatment (quick evacuation of PDC from healthy cells and high light fluence required for activation provides extremely high safety profile) Ultra low toxicity as PDC never enters blood stream (bladder cancer) Water soluble & readily penetrates cellular membrane (DNA localizing) Activated by laser light providing excellent specificity and selectivity Lethal to cancer and bacteria Able to treat solid core hypoxic tumours, such as: breast, prostate and lung Research performed at world renowned Princess Margaret Cancer Centre Activated at long wavelengths (allows deeper tumour destruction) Issued USA Patents: 6,962,910, 7,612,057, 8,148,360, 8,445,475 Pending USA Patent Applications: 61/801,674, 13/863,089, PCT/US13/36595

  3. Strategy Opportunity Complete a FDA Phase 1/2a human bladder cancer clinical study with FDA breakthrough status Execution of a strategic partnering agreement with big pharma for destruction of bladder cancer (i.e.: upfront payments , co-development funds, annual recurring revenue streams) Strategy 2013 - Milestone 2 (complete): Destruction of cancer in a live animal mouse model. Demonstrated >99% efficacy for a subcutaneous cancerous tumour 2014 - Milestone 3 (in progress): Complete validation in orthotopic rat model, dose toxicity study, GMP drug manufacture and FDA Investigational New Drug (IND) application 2015 - Milestone 4: Complete FDA phase 1/2a human clinical study with FDA breakthrough status 2016 - Milestone 5: Execute strategic partnering agreement with big pharma

  4. Bladder Cancer USA Bladder Cancer Treatment Annual Spending $3.9 billion (2012) Statistics 70,000 new cases, > 14,000 deaths in the US each year 386,000 new cases are diagnosed worldwide annually Standard treatment unchanged with no new drugs approved since 1998 5 th most common cancer, 4 th in men, 8 th in women Most expensive cancer to treat with a recurrence rate up to 80% 70% of new bladder cancer cases are early stage disease and 90% of bladder cancers are Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) Current Standard of Care Early stage disease (Ta, T1): Trans Urethral Resection of the Bladder Tumour (TURBT) followed by treatment with bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) – 5 year survival rate of 75%. Mid Stage disease (T2, T3a/b): Entire bladder removed along with nearby reproductive organs and lymph nodes in a procedure called a radical cystectomy - 5 year survival rate of 31 to 63% depending on progression of disease. Late stage disease (T4): Disease has spread to distant sites, such as the bones, liver and lungs and is generally regarded as incurable - 5 year survival rate of 21%.

  10. Anti-Cancer Technology Risk Scientific Risk in-vitro and small animal in-vivo results show virtually zero toxicity and up to 100% cancer kill across a wide range of cancers Manufacturing Risk Drug manufacturing will be outsourced to a GMP facility. Laser design will be completed by Theralase which is ISO- 13485 certified and has designed and manufactured laser systems for over 20 years. Manufacturing of sub components will occur at ISO-9001 manufacturing facilities Regulatory Risk Very low as anti-cancer technology has demonstrated up to 100% effectiveness in bladder cancer cells with virtually zero toxicity as it never enters the blood stream. FDA is very supportive of approving new cancer drugs Financing Risk $3.15 M financing completed in November 2013 to commercialize next generation therapeutic laser and commence Phase 1/2a anti-cancer clinical trial Liquidity Risk Company currently trades on the TSXV under ticker TLT and is a fully reporting issuer Execution Risk Outsourced to Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, one of the top 5 cancer institutes in the world. Canada’s top uro- oncologist and Head of Urology at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre will lead bladder cancer clinical trials
