The New Economic Reality
Public Markets: Closed? • Biotech IPO Performance: Very Poor
• 2003-2007 Window: 77 Companies• Average VC Return = 1.9X • Oct 2007 (Market Peak): 59% trading below initial PPS • June 2009: 79% trading below initial PPS• 69% Trading Below Total Invested Capital
• Only 13 Biotech IPOs in the last 24 months; All Performed Poorly* (Reduced Capital Raised; Reduced Offering Price; Trading Below IPO price)
Private Equity: Dramatically Reduced • Venture Investments in Biotech are Down 45+%
• Back to pre=1990s level of capital (PWC Survey)• VCs have fled Early Stage investments • First-Time financings at lowest level in history (down 95%; 3 deals; $1M)

RM Has Made Great Progress, but… ….Challenges Remain
R&D Creation And Characterization Of
Optimal Cells For Therapy– Controlling Differentiation Pathways
Standards For The Field– What is an iPS Cell?
Contaminant Free Cell Lines Safe & Reliable Expansion Track Cell Migration & Engraftment
- Imaging Technology And Biological Markers
Immune Modulation
Manufacturing Technologies For Scale-up
- Safe & Reliable Expansion - Sterility Testing & Validation - Process Control & Reproducibility;
Consistent Lots- Closed Systems
Product Characterization– Safety; Identify; Potency
Process Control : Process Is The Product – COGS; QC; & cGMP
Centralized Vs. Point Of Care

…A Few More Challenges
Regulatory& IP Landscape Regulatory Environment Needs Clarity
- Standards & Guidelines Are Evolving
- Characterization
- Safety / Efficacy / Consistency
- Cross Border Inconsistencies
IP Landscape Is Treacherous : “Patent Thicket”
- Fragmented Ownership;
- Patents Proliferating Rapidly : 25% GAGR
- Inconsistent & Competing Patents: Invites Litigation
- Need “Freedom To Operate” Opinions
Business Issues Business Model Questions
- Capital Efficient R&D- Product V. Service Models- Autologous V. Allogeneic
Reimbursement Issues- Cost Savings Justification
Sales & Marketing- Complex Channel Arrangements- Define Marketable “Product”- Educate Consumers Re: New Treatment

The Old “Relay” Model Is Very Capital Intensive
Business Models: • “Platform” Company
• Develop technology horizontally across many therapeutic applications• High research cash burn • Large R&D staff
• “Product” Company (Specialty Pharma)• Apply technology to specific therapeutic applications• Multiple clinical programs• Large clinical trial burn rate
IPO Metrics: • Lead Program in late stage development • Additional “shots on goal” (earlier clinical programs, or platform technologies) • Substantial infrastructure (“bricks & mortar” & staff)
