Triferic® uniquely positioned to revolutionize renal anemia management NASDAQ: RMTI 7 Competitive Landscape Low Cost or Generic High Cost Convenience Labor Intensive Long-Acting ESA HIF-PH* Triferic® Short-Acting ESA AURYXIA I.V. Iron *Products are still in Phase III with Price and Efficacy TBD

Blood loss and iron sequestration are leading causes of anemia in hemodialysis (HD) patients 5-7 mg iron loss during every HD treatment (3x/week, 156x/year) Iron losses are best replaced at every HD treatment, similar to concurrent replacement of Ca, Mg, K and bicarbonate losses by dialysis Current standard of care for anemia in HD patients has been focused on acute iron replacement and has significant limitations and risks Risk of iron toxicity; cardiovascular risks of ESAs High cost of ESAs I.V. iron therapy with polymeric iron complexes is associated with: Anaphylaxis/hypersensitivity reactions, infections, cardiovascular disease, calciphylaxis and functional iron deficiency Tissue iron overload with regular, ‘Maintenance’ I.V. iron therapy Hemoglobin and ESA cycling with ‘Load and Hold’ / ‘Intermittent’ I.V. iron therapy Iron loss is unavoidable during hemodialysis and occurs in each and every hemodialysis patient NASDAQ: RMTI 8 Unmet Need in Iron Maintenance Therapy

Novel therapy that addresses the daily iron needs of dialysis patients and avoids iron toxicity NASDAQ: RMTI 9 Triferic® Platform FIRST and ONLY FDA-approved product indicated to maintain hemoglobin in hemodialysis-dependent CKD patients Replaces recurring iron loss during dialysis Maintains hemoglobin Lowers ferritin level Via dialysate, the Triferic® water-soluble iron complex crosses the dialyzer membrane and delivers iron every dialysis treatment Demonstrated 35% reduction in prescribed ESA dose at 9 months compared to placebo in PRIME study* *Gupta et al. - Kidney International – 2015

NASDAQ: RMTI 10 Triferic® vs. Current I.V. Iron Therapy Triferic® works like dietary iron in the body to maintain hemoglobin Triferic® Indication: Replacement of Iron to Maintain Hemoglobin Key Benefits Donates iron immediately and completely to transferrin for transport to bone marrow Hemoglobin enables red blood cells to carry oxygen from lungs to all parts of the body, providing energy and well-being No non-transferrin free iron to generate oxidative stress or inflammation Bypasses the block to iron export from RES due to elevated hepcidin No increase in iron stores (ferritin) No increase in infections No anaphylaxis reported in over 600,000 doses Triferic® IV Iron Indication: Iron Repletion/Rescue Therapy Limitations Carbohydrate-encased Macromolecule Increases inflammation Metabolizes in the patient’s liver (instead of binding to transferrin) Iron trapped in the liver and reticuloendothelial system Increases ferritin May increase risk of infection and cardiovascular disease I.V. Iron

Triferic® ESA-Sparing PRIME Study* NASDAQ: RMTI 11 Triferic® Pharmacoeconomic Benefits *”Ferric pyrophosphate citrate administered via dialysate reduces erythropoiesis-stimulating agent use and maintains hemoglobin in hemodialysis patients.” Gupta et al. - Kidney International – 2015 Triferic® is indicated for iron replacement and hemoglobin maintenance and ESA reduction is not part of the label. Significant ESA reduction vs. placebo in a double-blind clinical study 35% ESA reduction in Triferic® patients compared to placebo arm at 9 months 74% ESA reduction in ESA-hyporesponsive patients compared to placebo arm at 9 months Hemoglobin level was maintained throughout the study Significant I.V. iron reduction 51% less I.V. Iron use than placebo in Triferic® patents No increase in ferritin levels / iron stores PRIME Study: ESA Use and Hemoglobin Levels

Demonstrates consistent, well-defined safety profile suitable for long-term iron maintenance therapy NASDAQ: RMTI 12 Triferic® Has a Proven Safety Record Largest safety database submitted for registration of any parenteral iron product 1,440 patients received Triferic® every HD treatment for up to 18 months 870 patient years of exposure in NDA database No reported anaphylaxis in over 600,000 doses administered No increase in intradialytic hypotension No iron toxicity or overload No increase in infections, oxidative stress or inflammation Decrease in blood transfusions of greater than 50%1 Overall adverse event profile similar to placebo Please visit www.triferic.com for full prescribing and safety information 1.

Triferic® Planned NDA filing in 1H 2019 with potential approval in 2020 Eligible for 24 months of TDAPA pricing, if approved by CMS Hemodialysis market moving toward on-line bicarbonate generation in US; already established in ROW FDA agreed on bioequivalence approach comparing PK parameters of total iron and transferrin-bound iron of I.V. Triferic® to Dialysate Triferic® I.V. Triferic® demonstrated bioequivalence with Dialysate Triferic® in PK studies Pursuing partnerships globally, with a focus on key markets such as E.U., Japan and China Pharmacokinetic Data (Absolute Fe and Absolute Transferrin-Bound Iron)

Dialysate Triferic® FDA-Approved & Ready to Launch in 2019 NASDAQ: RMTI 14 Potential to Transform Renal Anemia Management Triferic.com; accessed 12/3/2018 Triferic.com Gives Iron When and Where Patients Need it Triferic® enters the blood via dialysate and donates its iron immediately to transferrin, making red blood cells and maintaining hemoglobin. Increases Health Red Blood Cells Hemoglobin enables red blood cells to carry oxygen to all parts of the body, providing energy. Proven Safety Profile No iron trapped in the liver and no increase in ferritin, inflammation, toxicity or infections. No anaphylaxis. Decrease in blood transfusions.
