Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by CHFW and its management, and Surrozen and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, various factors beyond management’s control including general economic conditions and other risks, uncertainties and factors set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in CHFW’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering, dated November 18, 2020, and other filings with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”), as well as factors associated with companies, such as Surrozen, that are engaged in preclinical studies and other research and development activities in the biopharma industry, including uncertainty in the timing or results of preclinical studies and clinical trials, product acceptance and/or receipt of regulatory approvals for product candidates, including any delays and other impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Nothing in this Presentation should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved.

© 2021 Surrozen, Inc. Our Novel Approach Overcomes Previous Challenges Technologies, Expertise and Strategy Help Establish a New Paradigm Our antibodies have desirable drug-like properties: Technologies confer desirable PK, stability and manufacturability properties Our mechanisms mimic normal physiologic responses: Antibodies copy natural regeneration and repair process including negative feedback pathways and self-limiting components Identification of diseased tissue sensitivity: Discovered diseased tissue responds to Wnt signaling while we see little or no activity in healthy and non-targeted tissue; no evidence of hyperplasia or dysplasia Wnt biology expertise: Understand, and continue to profile, expression patterns of FZDs, LRPs and R-Spondins across disease states Selective targeting with potency: Achieved individual FZD receptor selectivity and tissue specificity while preserving potency Our strategy limits risk: Focus on severe disease, short term-dosing, and potential local administration There is an approved drug precedent: Romosozumab, an anti-sclerostin antibody, enhances Wnt signaling in bone.
