2 Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties which may cause results to differ materially from expectations and involve risks and uncertainties, which may cause results to differ materially from those set forth in the statements. The forward-looking statements may include statements regarding product development, product potential, future financial and operating results, and other statements that are not historical facts. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and health care legislation; Sucampo’s ability to accurately predict future market conditions; dependence on the effectiveness of Sucampo’s patents and other protections for innovative products; the risk of new and changing regulation and health policies in the US and internationally and the exposure to litigation and/or regulatory actions. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those projected. Sucampo undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Forward-looking statements in this presentation should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect Sucampo’s business, particularly those mentioned in the risk factors and cautionary statements in Sucampo s business, particularly those mentioned in the risk factors and cautionary statements in Sucampo’s Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011, which the Company incorporates by reference

9 AMITIZA Mechanism of Action CIC-2 Ion Channel Activation The CIC-2 chloride channel allows chloride to flow out of cells promoting fluid secretion cells, promoting fluid secretion within different organ systems Chloride movement through the channel also helps to the channel also helps to maintain, enhance and repair tight junctions Mucosal Barrier can be damaged by disease or injury leading to severe systemic problems. AMITIZA can help restore tight junctions by  binding and activating ClC-2 channels, allowing chloride to flow out of allowing chloride to flow out of the cell

Slide 26
26 BK Channel Activation Unoprostone Isopropyl Mechanism of Action Voltage-gated BK-type potassium channels can change a cell’s net internal charge, and thus it’s behavior behavior. When the calcium channel opens, calcium flows into and out of the cell, changing the cell’s net internal charge to positive, or depolarized. Once calcium accumulates in the cell, it binds to and activates the BK channel, allowing potassium to flow out and re-setting the cell’s negative charge. Prostones RESCULA Prostones, like RESCULA, can bind to and activate the BK channel in the absence of calcium resulting in the hyperpolarization of the cell membrane and reducing the activation of the voltage-gated calcium channel.
