Clinical Overview: SB204, Acne Vulgaris Program Completed Long Term Safety Study: no significant adverse events observed Continue to do work on behalf of Sato – our Japanese partner on SB204 FDA granted meeting to be held in 3Q 2017 Goal of FDA meeting: seek programmatic clarity regarding possible clinical and regulatory path forward SB204 Acne program remains of interest from Novan perspective and from external strategic perspective Page 14
Clinical Overview: SB206, EGW Program Page 15 Market Overview Next Steps >500,000 cases of genital warts in the US Currently no FDA approved treatments with an antiviral mechanism for the treatment of warts Topical and ablative procedures for genital warts remain ineffective in achieving long term wart eradication Average recurrence rates of 30% - 70%1 1Yanofsky et al. Expert Rev Dermatol. 2013;8(3):321-332. Initiate Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled parallel group trial in ~300 patients Assess tolerability, safety and efficacy of SB206 gel and vehicle gel in subjects with external genital warts and perianal warts Phase 2 Primary Endpoint - Complete Clearance of Baseline Warts SB206 demonstrated dose-dependent inhibition of HPV-18 viral replication in vitro and dose responsive, pharmacologic effect against papillomavirus in a Rabbit model Phase 2 study: statistically significant clearance of baseline warts (QD dosing) Clinical Background
Clinical Overview: Molluscum Program Page 16 Next Steps Clinical Background Molluscum is a contagious skin infection caused by the molluscipoxvirus Affects ~6M Americans, mostly children Greatest incidence in children aged 1 to 12 years Average time to resolution is 13 months1 30% of children have lesions that may not resolve in 18 months 13% of cases unresolved after 24 months There is no FDA-approved treatment for Molluscum Recent regulatory discussion regarding medical / therapeutic need Discussions constructive Initiate Phase 2 trial utilizing SB206 for the treatment of Molluscum no later than 2Q 2018 1 Olsen JR et al. Lancet Infect Dis. 2015;15:190-5. 2 Data on file, Novan, Inc. Images courtesy of https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/molluscum-contagiosum/index.html Observational learnings from in-licensed sodium nitrite/citric acid topical treatment Clinically meaningful complete clearance rates from sodium nitrite/citric acid study High-dose active treatment showed 48% complete clearance of baseline lesions vs 29% in the placebo group (not stat. sig. on the primary efficacy endpoint due to only 30 subjects per arm (p=.092)2 Learnings combined with SB206 program knowledge provides logical pathway to Molluscum indication Market Overview and Opportunity
Clinical Overview: SB414, Psoriasis and Atopic Dermatitis Page 17 Market Overview Next Steps Clinical Background Nitric oxide has the potential to disrupt the propagation of IL-17 locally in the skin through its ability to disrupt the assembly and activity of the NLRP3 inflammasome¹ SB414 displayed potent anti-staphylococcal activity and dose-dependent inhibition of inflammation comparable to betamethasone in in vivo atopic dermatitis models SB414 significantly (p<0.05) reduced composite psoriasis scores and inhibited production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-17a and IL-17f in vivo Current systemic therapies are indicated only for patients with moderate-to-severe disease² ~80% of patients have mild-to-moderate disease and are treated with topical therapies (corticosteroids, retinoids and vitamin D3). All have side effects and are not well-suited for chronic use³ Phase 1b trials for Psoriasis and Atopic Dermatitis in 2H 2017 Evaluation of systemic exposure via pharmacokinetic assessment of NVN1000 Assessment of key biomarkers of inflammation Assessments of safety and cutaneous tolerability 1Speeckaert R et.al.

Summary Focus for the company: high quality execution and moving the science/clinical assets forward Near term goal to enable increase in operating “runway” Primary clinical focus over the next 24 months: antiviral clinical work in EGW and Molluscum Secondary clinical and nitric oxide mechanistic focus is anti-inflammatory with work in Psoriasis and Atopic Dermatitis Acne indication and path forward will be largely driven by regulatory clarity Early stages of “thinking through” New Chemical Entity (NCEs) component of the company’s future Page 22
