BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (www.biorestorative.com) develops therapeutic products using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells. Our two core programs, as described below, relate to the treatment of disc/spine disease and metabolic disorders: • Disc/Spine Program (brtxDISC™): Our lead cell therapy candidate, BRTX-100, is a product formulated from autologous (or a person’s own) cultured mesenchymal stem cells collected from the patient’s bone marrow. We intend that the product will be used for the non-surgical treatment of protruding and bulging lumbar discs in patients suffering from chronic lumbar disc disease. The BRTX-100 production process involves collecting a patient’s bone marrow, isolating and culturing stem cells from the bone marrow and cryopreserving the cells. In an outpatient procedure, BRTX-100 is to be injected by a physician into the patient’s damaged disc. The treatment is intended for patients whose pain has not been alleviated by non-invasive procedures and who potentially face the prospect of surgery. We have received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration to commence a Phase 2 clinical trial using BRTX-100 to treat chronic lower back pain due to degenerative disc disease related to protruding/bulging discs. • Metabolic Program (ThermoStem®): We are developing a cell-based therapy to target obesity and metabolic disorders using brown adipose (fat) derived stem cells to generate brown adipose tissue (“BAT”). BAT is intended to mimic naturally occurring brown adipose depots that regulate metabolic homeostasis in humans. Initial preclinical research indicates that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels. Researchers have found that people with higher levels of brown fat may have a reduced risk for obesity and diabetes.

BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ) develops autologous stem cell therapies for neurodegenerative disorders such as ALS, MS, and Parkinson’s disease. These diseases have limited treatment options and represent unmet medical needs. NurOwn® is BrainStorm’s proprietary process for differentiating autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) into neurotrophic factor (NTF)-secreting cells, transplanted at or near the affected tissue site. Our technology converts MSCs into a living drug delivery system for NTFs. We have proof-of-concept in various animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's, Huntington's, ALS, MS, and peripheral nerve injury. We have completed two single-arm clinical trials in ALS patients in Israel, demonstrating good safety and tolerability profiles and strong efficacy signals. We also finalized a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial at multiple US sites, supported by a $16 million USD grant from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) and another grant from the ALS Association. Currently, we are planning a Phase 3b clinical trial of NurOwn® in ALS under a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Creative Bioarray uniquely pioneers the development of high quality tissue, antibody, protein and cell array technology to efficiently analyze the concurrent expression and function of proteins involved in inflammation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, cell growth, and signal transduction from a single biological sample. Creative Bioarray is a well-recognized service provider propelled by integrity, expertise and the desire to contribute to simplify, improve, and accelerate research speed of the scientists by providing the highest standard quality research products and services. Since it founded, Creative Bioarray had recognized that an important obstacle to make development of basic bioscience and preclinical researches using human specimens is the lack of access to reference materials. Consequently, Creative Bioarray was determined to be the first commercial entity specialized in building up the largest tissue-sharing platform by integrating the detailed clinical information of all the tissue samples.

EpiBone is a revolutionary bone reconstruction company that allows patients to "grow their own bone". EpiBone's pioneering technology utilizes a scan of the patient's bone defect and the patient's own stem cells to construct and cultivate a defect-specific autologous-like bone graft. EpiBone is strategically positioned to provide a superior bone graft that will provide exact defect repair, a simplified surgical procedure, improved bone formation and regeneration, and shorter recovery times, without the complications of foreign body implantation, to the over 900,000 patients who undergo bone-related surgeries each year.

FOXG1 Research Foundation (FRF) is a US-based 501(c)(3) not-for-profit dedicated to accelerating research to find a cure FOXG1 syndrome. Previously called Brain Factor 1, FOXG1 is one of the first and most fundamental genes formed during brain development. Most children with FOXG1 syndrome cannot walk, talk, crawl, or take care of their most basic needs; most have a feeding tube, most undergo major surgeries, and most suffer from life-threatening seizures. Many leading neuroscientists believe that FOXG1 holds the key to unlocking many brain disorders that affect millions of people including autism, schizophrenia, Alzheimers and brain cancers. They also believe FRF can get to human clinical trials in three to five years. The FOXG1 Research Foundation was founded by FOXG1 moms in 2017 with the support of a worldwide team of FOXG1 parents. FRF is quickly becoming known in the biotech arena as a Patient Organization making tremendous strides. FRF raised more than one million dollars in less than one year and has successfully funded six major research projects fostering the most comprehensive study of FOXG1 to-date. The potential to improve millions of lives is tremendous. The time is now. Join us to pioneer some of the most ground-breaking research in human history. 1 www.foxg1research.org

Gameto is a biotechnology company whose mission is to redefine female reproductive health by developing therapies that improve lives. Women’s health is a vastly underserved therapeutic area. Most conditions have few treatment options, and those available often cause frequent complications and offer limited clinical benefit. We aim to change that. Gameto is committed to using cutting-edge scientific advances to deliver better solutions to patients. Using cellular engineering, we have developed a platform to produce female reproductive cell lines. We use proprietary combinations of transcription factors to reprogram hiPSCs into engineered ovarian and endometrium cell lines that mimic the functions of endogenous cells, producing and responding to all hormones. Our team of cellular engineers is using this platform to advance a portfolio of cellular therapeutics for female reproductive diseases. Our first program, Fertilo, is a therapeutic for IVF and egg freezing, aiming to make the process shorter, safer and more effective. Additional applications of our platform include, an organoid of the female reproductive system, Deovo, and a cell-based therapeutic to ameliorate the health consequences of primary ovarian insufficiency and menopause, Ameno.
