E4 (Estetrol) –Unique Agonist-Antagonist Mode of Action

11

Cells exhibit 2 types of estrogen receptors (ERα): membrane and nucleus receptors

Depending on the tissue either the membrane or the nucleus receptor is predominantly active

E4 acts differently compared to other estrogens depending on the tissue:

• Agonist on nuclear receptor: E4 acts as an estrogen in bone, vagina, endometrium stability & heart to provide beneficial effects (as other estrogens)

• Antagonist on the membrane receptor: E4 blocks the estrogen receptor in breast and has a neutral effecton the liver (unlike other estrogens)

Safety concerns of estrogens: an unmet clinical need potentially addressed by E4

E4 has the potential to address most of these concerns:

+ Favorable VTE risk profile¹,#

+ Favorable drug-drug interaction profile⁴+ Minimal increase of triglycerides5, ‡

+ Lower breast pain6 and lower carcinogenicpotential in the presence of E2*,2,3,7

+ Good user acceptability, body weight control, excellent cycle control, improved spotting and general well-being6,8

Estrogen’ssystemic side effects:

- Heart and liver: increased risk of Myocardial infarction, Thrombophlebitis

- Brain: increased risk of Stroke, Alzheimer’s and Dementia

- Ovary and uterus: increased risk of Ovarian and Endometrial cancer

- Breast: increased risk of Breast cancer- Quality of life: bleeding, cycle control

• Note: Hoogland score is a validated tool to assess ovarian function and evaluate ovulation inhibition, which is assessed by transvaginal ultrasounds (TVUS) monitoring of follicle size and analysis of serum E2 and progesterone levels, and consequently classified according to a 6-point scoring (1 = no ovarian activity; 2 = potential activity; 3 = non-active follicle-like structure (FLS); 4 = active FLS; 5 = luteinised unruptured follicle (LUF); 6 = ovulation).

• Primary study objective reached: optimal minimal effective dose defined at 15 mg

• Frequency and severity endpoints met, despite not being powered for statistical significance:

o Significant % of reduction of VMS frequency at Week 4 & Week 12 (p < 0.05)

˗ Reduction of over 80% vs baseline, vs. 65% for placebo at week 12*

o Significant reduction of severity of VMS at Week 4 and Week 12 (p < 0.05)

˗ Reduction of over 40% vs baseline for moderate to severe VMS, vs. approx. 25% for placebo at week 12 *

Donesta® Phase IIb: Efficacy on Secondary endpoints& promising safety profile (1/2)• Highlights secondary efficacy endpoints:

o Statistically significant result for vaginal maturation index (VVA/vulvo-vaginal atrophy; p < 0.001)

o Strong improvement in Menopause Rating Scale (Quality of life)

o 15 mg dose shows lower bone turnover vs placebo at Week 12

Near-significant decrease for CTX-1 & significant decrease for osteocalcin marker (p < 0.05) vs placebo

• At 15 mg, need to add progestin for non-hysterectomized women to curb endometrial

proliferation

• However, no endometrial hyperplasia detected in any of the study subjects

Donesta® Phase IIb: Efficacy on Secondary endpoints& promising safety profile (2/2)

30© 2018 | Mithra Investor Presentation | September 2018

• Safety parameters confirming published results on hemostatic profile of E4:• Limited impact on pro- and anti-coagulant factors• Encouraging limited increase in SHBG levels (Sex-hormone binding globulin), as marker of hepatic

estrogenicity

• Significant improvement in metabolic factors, especially for 15 mg dose, pointing to promising cardiovascular safety profile:• Glucose levels significantly improve, as measured by hemoglobin A1C (p < 0.001 vs placebo)• Metabolism of lipids also significantly improved (p < 0.05 for increase in cholesterol-HDL levels vs

placebo for 10 & 15 mg)• Only very slight increase in triglyceride levels

Donesta® Phase IIb: Summary and Next steps

31© 2018 | Mithra Investor Presentation | September 2018

• 15mg E4 efficacious for relieving most bothersome symptoms of menopause; with promising safety profile

• European and American KOL Boards very supportive to progress Donesta; • Phase III development plan:

o Launch of both an E4 alone and a combination trial (E4 + progestin) in order to maximize market potential of Donesta

o Preparatory/bridging studies to commence as early as Q4 2018 (e.g. food effect study), followed by initiation of recruitment for Phase III trials

o Detailed Phase III design is being discussed with KOLs and agencies

> Positive top line Phase IIb data strongly support further Donesta® development, as a unique next-generation hormone therapy
