venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2018 (Stated in United States Dollars) 1. The Partnership venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. (the Partnership) was formed as a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership dated March 25, 2010. The general partner of the Partnership is venBio Global Strategic GP, L.P. (the General Partner). The primary investment objective of the Partnership is to make strategic equity and equity-related investments principally in entities operating in the life sciences industry and/or assets relating thereto and to achieve significant returns from its investments. The initial term of the Partnership shall continue until September 19, 2021, at which time the Partnership will commence winding up, unless its term is extended in accordance with the Partnership’s limited partnership agreement (the Agreement). Refer to the Agreement for more information. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidated Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) and are stated in U.S. dollars. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of venBio SPV (Cayman), Ltd. and venBio SPV, LLC. The Partnership owns 100% of venBio SPV (Cayman), Ltd. at December 31, 2018, and venBio SPV (Cayman), Ltd. owns 100% of venBio SPV, LLC at December 31, 2018. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. venBio SPV (Cayman), Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, was established on November 9, 2012, to invest specifically in venBio SPV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. As of December 31, 2018, venBio SPV, LLC holds common shares in Solstice Biologics Limited and ALX Oncology Limited (formerly Alexo Therapeutics, Ltd.). The Partnership and the consolidated entities each are an investment company and applies specialized accounting guidance as outlined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946 – Investment Companies. The General Partner has evaluated this guidance and has determined that each entity continues to meet the criteria to be classified as an investment company. 7

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the fair value of investments, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investments – Fair Value and Investment Transactions The Partnership’s investments are reflected on the consolidated statements of assets, liabilities, and partners’ capital at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected in the change in net unrealized gain on investments on the consolidated statements of operations. Fair value is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price). The fair values of the Partnership’s investments are based on observable market prices when available. The Partnership values its investments, in the absence of observable market prices, using the valuation methodologies described below applied on a consistent basis. For some investments, little market activity may exist; management’s determination of fair value is then based on the best information available in the circumstances, and may incorporate management’s own assumptions and involves a significant degree of management’s judgment. Investments in private operating companies consist of direct private common and preferred stock (together or individually "equity") investments. The transaction price, excluding transaction costs, is typically the Partnership’s best estimate of fair value at inception. When evidence supports a change to the carrying value from the transaction price, adjustments are made to reflect expected exit values in the investment's principal market under current market conditions. Ongoing reviews by the Partnership’s management are based on an assessment of trends in the performance of each underlying investment from the inception date through the most recent valuation date. The valuation methodologies used to value private investments may include reference to valuations of comparable companies in the relevant asset class and/or reference to public market or private transactions where such transactions exist. Generally, these valuations are derived by multiplying a key performance metric of the investee company (e.g., revenue, sales) by the relevant valuation multiple observed for comparable companies or transactions. The valuation multiple is often adjusted for differences between the investment and the referenced comparables. 8

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Investments – Fair Value and Investment Transactions (continued) Private investments may also be valued at cost, or the most recent financing price, for a period of time after an acquisition as the best indicator of fair value. The most recent financing may also be utilized in a back-solve option pricing model. The option pricing model treats a portfolio company’s common stock and preferred stock as call options on the enterprise or equity value of the portfolio company, with exercise or strike prices based on the characteristics of each series or class of equity in the portfolio company’s capital structure (e.g. liquidation preference of a given series of preferred stock). This method is sensitive to certain key assumptions, such as volatility and time to exit, that are not observable. Foreign investments are valued and reported in U.S. dollar amounts at the valuation date. Milestone earnouts are valued based on the risk-adjusted probability of receipt/completion of the milestone (also can be referred to as PTRS – Probability of Technical and Regulatory Success) and then Net Present Value (NPV) adjusted based on the future projected cashflows. These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of management judgment and because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment, the characteristics specific to the investment and the state of the market place, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in an orderly market will generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: Level I – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The type of investments in Level I include listed equities and listed derivatives. The Partnership does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Partnership holds a large position and a sale could reasonably affect the quoted price. 9

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Investments – Fair Value and Investment Transactions (continued) Level II – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Investments that are generally included in this category include corporate bonds and loans, less liquid and restricted equity securities and certain over-the-counter derivatives. Level III – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Investments that are included in this category generally include private investments of equity and/or debt, milestone earnouts, general and limited partnership interests in corporate private equity, and real estate funds, funds of hedge funds, distressed debt, and non-investment-grade residual interests in securitizations and collateralized debt obligations. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Partnership’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and it considers factors specific to the investment. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-13, Disclosure Frameworks – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements, which modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The Partnership adopted ASU 2018-13 on a retrospective basis as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this accounting guidance resulted in the removal or modification of certain fair value measurement disclosures presented in the Partnership’s financial statements. 10

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Investments – Fair Value and Investment Transactions (continued) Quantitative Information About Level III Fair Value Measurements Information about significant inputs used in fair value measurements categorized within Level III instruments is shown below. Type of Security Fair Value at December 31, 2018 Valuation Technique(s) Unobservable Input(s) Range Milestone earnouts 6,125,131$ Discounted cash flow Discount rate 6.00% Probability 35%-95% Payout period 0.3-1.55 years Equity securities 50,665,141$ Option pricing model Risk free rate 2.49% - 2.78% Industry volatility 106.5% - 107.7% Estimated time to exit 3 - 4 years The remaining Level III securities, including preferred shares and common stock, totaling $46,095,196 are valued using either recent private market transactions without adjustment or other relevant data points. Quantitative unobservable inputs for such valuations were not developed or adjusted by the Partnership. Foreign Securities The Partnership invests in the securities of foreign companies which involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies. These risks include devaluation of currencies, less reliable information about issuers, different securities transaction clearance and settlement practices, and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and the markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies. Cash Cash represents amounts held in accounts with financial institutions and is subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and Securities Investor Protection Corporation limitations. The Partnership continuously monitors the credit standing of the institutions with which it conducts business. 12

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Interest Income Interest income represents interest earned from bank interest. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis as earned. Market and Other Risk Factors At December 31, 2018, the Partnership’s portfolio of investments includes non-publicly traded securities. The non-publicly traded securities trade, if at all, in an illiquid marketplace. The portfolio is concentrated in the life sciences industry. Risks affecting this industry include, but are not limited to, increased competition, rapid changes in technology, government actions, and changes in economic conditions. These risk factors could have a material effect on the ultimate realized value of the Partnership’s investments. Professional Fees and Other Expenses Professional fees and other expenses represent annual audit and tax fees, as well as legal and other miscellaneous expenses. Milestone Earnouts Milestone earnouts refers to additional amounts from liquidated investments that management believes may be realized at future dates and/or as future events occur. The value of estimated milestone earnouts may vary based on the input assumptions, estimates and other items that require significant judgment or estimation by the General Partner. On a periodic basis, the General Partner will review and adjust, if necessary, the assumptions and estimates for the milestone earnout proceeds. While the milestone earnouts amounts reflect a concentration of risk, the General Partner considers counterparty performance risk in its determination of projected earnout amounts. All counterparties to current earnout arrangements are deemed to represent reputable financially secure companies. The projected earnout amounts are included in investments on the accompanying consolidated statement of assets, liabilities, and partners’ capital. 13

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Milestone Earnouts (continued) Aragon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Aragon”) entered into a merger agreement and was effectively acquired by Johnson & Johnson. Consideration for this agreement provided to the Aragon shareholders consisted of upfront cash proceeds, newly formed company Seragon Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s common stock, escrow holdback and projected earnouts based on milestone achievements. Projected earnout payments are contingent upon completion of milestone achievements with three remaining payments expected through 2020. The Partnership’s share of the maximum gross remaining earnout milestone payments is approximately $11,000,000 and are valued at $6,125,131 at December 31, 2018. Labrys Biologics, Inc. merged with Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. during 2014. As a result of the merger, the Partnership received consideration consisting of upfront cash proceeds, as well as anticipated earnout and escrow payments. In 2018, the Partnership received $41,418,804 in remaining earnout payments and escrow proceeds. The Partnership has no remaining or expected proceeds held in escrow at December 31, 2018. Income Taxes No provision for U.S. federal, U.S. state, or local income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as partners are individually liable for their own tax payments. The Partnership performs an evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Partnership tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely- than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense. The Partnership has recorded no expense or liability related to any uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2018. Generally, the Partnership subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities for the last three years preceding the date of these consolidated financial statements. The Partnership recognizes interest and penalties, if any, as income tax expense in the consolidated statement of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Partnership did not accrue any interest and penalties. 14

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 3. Related-Party Transactions The Partnership pays venBio Partners LLC (the Management Company) (or its designee) an annual management fee equal to the sum of all limited partner fee amounts for such annual period. The limited partner fee amount shall mean with respect to each annual period and each limited partner with a subscription: (i) less than $75 million, an amount equal to 2.2% of such limited partner’s subscription; (ii) equal to or greater than $75 million, but less than $100 million, 2.0% of such limited partner’s subscription; (iii) equal to or greater than $100 million but less than $125 million, 1.8% of such limited partner’s subscription; and (iv) equal to or greater than $125 million, 1.5% of such limited partner’s subscription. Beginning September 19, 2016, the first day following the expiration of the investment period, the percentage used in calculating each limited partner’s management fees was reduced by 0.2% per annual period, with a minimum percentage threshold of 1.25%. Furthermore, if the limited partner’s aggregate invested capital (as defined in the Agreement) is less than 50% of the limited partner’s aggregate subscriptions, the management fee should be based on the aggregate invested capital as of the first day of each period for which the management fee is being paid rather than subscriptions. The percentage was reduced by an additional 0.2% in 2018. As of December 31, 2018, the management fee base is the aggregate limited partner’s invested capital. The gross management fee has been reduced each quarter by the deemed contributions made by the General Partner and receipt of any board compensation from portfolio companies, as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2018 Gross management fee $ 704,942 Deemed contributions by General Partner (106,720) Net management fee $ 598,222 The Partnership shall bear and be responsible for all expenses of the Partnership other than Ordinary Operating Expenses, defined below, which shall be borne by the Management Company. Ordinary Operating Expenses are defined as ordinary overhead and operating administrative expenses of the General Partner and the Management Company incurred in connection with maintaining and operating the General Partner’s and the Management Company’s office, including wages, salaries, rent, utilities and routine office equipment expense. 15

The General Partner’s subscription shall be at all times equal to at least 1.0% of the aggregate subscriptions of the limited partners. In addition, limited partners have a $177,000,000 capital commitment in aggregate. From time to time, each partner shall contribute its pro rata share to the Partnership, as shall be specified by the General Partner, to fund current or future portfolio investments or meet the expenses of the Partnership (including for the payment of any management fee expense, organizational expenses or indemnification obligations and a reserve for the Partnership’s operating expenses). Partnership contributions made by the partners and deemed contributions by the General Partner reduce the partners’ unpaid capital obligation. $167,145,083 or 93.49% of capital commitments have been called by the Partnership and $1,191,380 have been deemed contributions by the General Partner since inception. As of December 31, 2018, the unfunded commitment balance is $10,451,416. For all capital contributions made by the General Partner for the year ended December 31, 2018, only 20% of each contribution was required to be made in cash. The remaining portion of each installment of the General Partner’s capital contributions was deemed to have been made in installments at the same time and in the same proportions as the capital contributions of the limited partners. The General Partner’s deemed contributions were treated as capital contributions and reduce its unfunded subscription, but did not increase the General Partner’s capital account balance. The limited partners’ management fee was appropriately reduced by the amount of deemed contributions made by the General Partner. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the limited partners’ management fee was reduced by $106,720. The total deemed contributions for the year were $82,800. In addition to the $23,920 of deemed contributions brought forward from prior year, there was $82,800 used in additional reduction of management fees during the year. 16

Capital Accounts (continued) Allocation of Profits and Losses Generally, net gain and loss in respect of a portfolio investment initially shall be apportioned among the partners by their subscription divided by the aggregate subscriptions of all partners in respect of such portfolio investment. Net gain apportioned to the General Partner and each affiliated limited partner shall be allocated to the capital account of each partner, and net gain apportioned to each other limited partner shall be allocated as follows: (a) First, 100% to the limited partner in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the net loss (if any) previously allocated to the limited partner and (2) the management fee expense previously allocated to the limited partner, in each case to the extent not offset by prior allocations of net gain made; and (b) Thereafter, the limited partner’s Carried Interest (as defined below) percentage to the General Partner and the remainder to the limited partner. Net loss apportioned to the General Partner and each affiliated limited partner shall be allocated to the capital account of each partner, and net loss apportioned to each other limited partner shall be allocated as follows: (a) First, to the limited partner and the General Partner, in proportion to their respective amounts of net gain (if any) previously allocated to the limited partner and the General Partner in respect of the limited partner and not offset by prior allocations of net loss, an amount of net loss equal to the aggregate amount of such net gain (if any);and (b) Thereafter, to the limited partner. The management fee shall be allocated to the limited partners in proportion to their respective limited partner fee amounts. After the application of the above, the General Partner shall be entitled to receive a priority allocation of net gain that otherwise would have been allocated to the limited partners in the same proportions as allocations were made to the limited partners, in an amount equal to the amount of net gain that otherwise would have been allocated to the General Partner, provided that allocations of net gain will be made only if, and to the extent that, the available net gain as of such time is at least equal to such allocations. 17

venBio Global Strategic Fund, L.P. Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (Stated in United States Dollars) 4. Capital Accounts (continued) Allocation of Profits and Losses (continued) Limited partners with a subscription below $75 million are subject to a carried interest percentage of 20% and limited partners with a subscription of $75 million or greater are subject to a carried interest percentage of 17.5% (individually or in the aggregate “Carried Interest”). The General Partner’s Carried Interest is determined after taking into account all net gains and net losses allocated to the General Partner on a cumulative basis since the inception of the Partnership. The amount of accrued Carried Interest, calculated from both realized and unrealized gains, reallocated from the limited partners to the General Partner, for the year ended December 31, 2018, was $11,176,591. Distributions Distributable proceeds attributable to any portfolio investment initially shall be apportioned among the partners in proportion to their respective sharing percentages in respect of such portfolio investment. Distributable proceeds apportioned to the General Partner shall be distributed to the General Partner, and distributable proceeds apportioned to each other limited partner shall be distributed as follows: (a) First, 100% to the limited partner until the cumulative amount distributed to the limited partner is equal to such limited partner’s capital contributions; and (b) Thereafter, the limited partner’s Carried Interest percentage to the General Partner and the remainder to the limited partner. As a result of the General Partner’s Carried Interest, the Partnership shall distribute to the General Partner in cash, with respect to each fiscal year, either during the year or within 90 days thereafter, an amount (a “Tax Distribution”) equal to the aggregate federal, state and local tax liability the partner would have incurred. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Partnership made no Tax Distributions and made discretionary distributions of $50,492,313, resulting in total cumulative distributions of $373,742,154 as of December 31, 2018. 18

Indemnification Generally, no partner is individually liable for any debts or obligations of the Partnership in excess of its unpaid capital commitments. As described in the Agreement, the limited partners have indemnified the General Partner in connection with its activities on behalf of the Partnership. The Partnership has not had any claims or losses pursuant to these indemnifications and expects the risk of loss to be remote. 6. Financial Highlights Financial highlights are calculated for limited partners taken as a whole. An individual investor’s results may vary from these results based on different fee arrangements and the timing of capital transactions. The internal rate of return of the limited partners since inception is net of Carried Interest allocations, if any, to the General Partner and was computed based on the actual dates of the capital contributions and distributions, and the aggregate limited partners’ capital at the end of each measurement period. The net investment loss ratio does not reflect any effect of Carried Interest to the General Partner. Financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 2018, are as follows: Internal rate of return, since inception: Beginning of year 75.77 % End of year 75.75 % Ratios to average limited partners’ capital: Expenses before Carried Interest allocation 1.05 % Allocation of Carried Interest 13.07 % Expenses after Carried Interest allocation 14.12 % Net investment loss (1.05)% 19
