§ The iMYC program is our most advanced with entry into a formal pre-clinical programplanned for H2 2017
§ Phylogica is planning to achieve substantial increases in the potency of both its leadFPP and its lead iMYC before further multi-parameter optimisation of the conjugatebegins

§ Since June we have signed three non-disclosure agreements with internationalpharmaceutical companies to discuss elements of Phylogica’s technology portfolio.
§ Genentech are due to make a decision regarding licensing/extension of novelantimicrobials research program in December 2016
§ Phylogica’s delivery technology (in the form of its FPPs) is being examined by multiplethird parties (Academic, Biotech and Pharma) for the delivery of various proprietarydrug cargoes

Phylomer Platform
§ The core intellectual property of Phylogica is our extensive library made up of proteinfragments expressed from the genetic material of micro-organisms (Phylomers)
§ For several years, our team of scientists, managers and advisers has been workinghard to utilise our Phylomer library to discover more efficient peptides to deliver arange of biologics cargoes into the inside of cells

§ Phylogica has significantly expanded the landscape of druggable targets as well asenhancing the specificity and sensitivity of these drug-target interactions
§ Searching through our extensive library to identify Phylomers that may be used asthe drug cargo in conjunction with the Functional Penetrating Phylomers (FPPs) led toour iMYC program

Commercialisation Progress
§ Academic and Commercial Collaborations progressing
– Murdoch University – Oligonucleotides for Muscular Dystrophy
– ONJCRI (formerly Ludwig Institute) – Myc and Bcl2/Mcl1 Bispecifics
– Genentech – Next generation Antimicrobials
– >5 active other (confidential) collaborations
– 5 new NDAs with Pharma/Biotech signed since end of Q1, 2016
§ iMYC program
– Early engagement underway with pharma/biotech
– On track for formal preclinical in 2H17 – next value milestone
§ Phylomer Libraries
– Phoremost target and small molecule discovery alliance
– Potential to generate novel targets and new chemistry
