This presentation includes forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. These forward-looking statements are included throughout this presentation. We have used the words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “future,” “will,” “seek,” “foreseeable” and similar terms and phrases to identify forward-looking statements in this presentation. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. We cannot assure you that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global, regional or local economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We believe that these factors include but are not limited to those described in our prospectus dated September 20, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), in our quarterly report filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2016, and in any subsequent filings with the SEC. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this presentation speaks only as of the date of this presentation. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them.

Potential Non-Steroidal Topical Treatment for Inflammatory Skin Disease Our intent is to develop SB414 for patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis who are not eligible for systemic therapy and who have limited non-steroidal, topical treatment choices. Key Findings Dose-dependent decreases in inflammation in oxazalone-induced mouse models of contact dermatitis Decreased IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-23 following topical administration of nitric oxide in a psoriasis mouse model Significantly reduced composite psoriasis scores, which consist of erythema and plaque scores, and pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-17, in a psoriasis mouse model. SB414 is a topical cream-based product candidate for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases Currently in preclinical development — clinical development expected 2Q2017
