Ischemic repair Critical Limb Ischemia: CLBS12 Chronic Heart Failure: CLBS14 20

Ischemic repair: Leveraging the body’s natural repair mechanism to develop new blood vessels CD34/CXCR4 from peripheral blood • Ischemic events – caused by restriction of blood to tissue, e.g., stroke, acute myocardial infarction and claudication • Results of ischemia include chronic heart failure, critical limb ischemia and more • CD34+ cells have been shown to induce the development of new blood vessels, preventing tissue death by improving blood flow Critical limb ischemia 21 CD34 cell therapy promoting angiogenesis CD34/CXCR4 Post acute myocardial infarction CD34/CXCR4 from bone marrow

PreSERVE study: enrolled Phase 2 study in follow-up 22 DESIGN • Randomized (1:1), Phase 2, double blind, placebo controlled trial • Post-AMI (STEMI) patients PRIMARY ENDPOINTS AND KEY SECONDARY ENDPOINT • Change in cardiac perfusion from baseline to 6 months (exploratory endpoint) • Incidence rates of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) (FDA guidance-driven endpoint) • LVEF change from baseline to 6 months (FDA guidance-driven endpoint) KEY INCLUSION CRITERIA • Confirmation of ST Elevation MI • Ejection fraction < 48% at day 4 by CMR • State-of-the-art care post stenting STUDY SIZE • 161 patients, 60 centers in United States TREATMENT • Single dose via infarct related artery with minimum dose ≥10M (million) ±20% CD34+ cells. • Actual dose determined by intrinsic number of cells in marrow and processing success rate CONTROL • Placebo infusion

PreSERVE interim conclusions emphasize cell dose-dependent trends*  CD34 cell dose-dependent trend in reduction of MACE — Signal for a mortality benefit (12 month data)  Signal for reduction in frequency of SAEs in higher dose groups (12 month data)  CD34 cell dose-dependent trend in improvement of left ventricular ejection fraction and reduction in infarct size  No correlation between exploratory endpoint of perfusion and treatment  Favorable trends in clinical events encourage continued development for platform *Based on data collected at 6 months except where noted 23

Significant Unmet Need for CLI and CHF NO-OPTION CRITICAL LIMB ISCHEMIA • If options for surgical or endovascular therapies are exhausted, patients only receive pain management, wound care or amputation • Even with surgical options over 50% lead to amputation or death within one year1 • Prevalence (Japan): 21K CLI no-option patients2 • Incidence (Japan): ~2K – 8K per year3 24 CHRONIC HEART FAILURE • Heart failure is the only major cardiovascular disorder still on the rise with incidence of CHF doubling with each decade of life • Most Class III patients are hospitalized two to three times per year4 • Prevalence (U.S.): 5M heart failure patients5 • Incidence (U.S.): ~550K per year5 1.

Stem Cells 2009; Study 2: Fujita Y et al. Circ J 2014; Study 3: Losordo et al. Circ Cardiovasc Interv 2012.

Phase 2 study in Japan, targeting conditional approval Study designed in consultation with PMDA 26 DESCRIPTION • Prospective, open label controlled, randomized, multicenter study in patients with no-option CLI DOSAGE • Up to 106 autologous G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood-derived CD34+ cells/kg per affected limb STUDY SIZE • 35 subjects PRIMARY ENDPOINT • Time to continuous CLI free status DOSAGE FORM • Solution/suspension; injectable DOSAGE FREQUENCY • Once MODE OF ADMINISTRATION • Intramuscular CONTROL/COMPARATOR • SOC pharmacotherapy with drugs approved in Japan (e.g., antiplatelets, anticoagulants, and vasodilators) • The choice of pharmacotherapy will be made by the investigators
