Investment Highlights • Focused strategy: small molecule therapeutics for reproductive disorders • Two late stage clinical programs each with +$1B sales potential • Androxal ® : PHASE 3 (SPA) oral treatment for Low Testosterone with pending patent/ patent life to the mid 2020’s(growing +$2B market) – Restoration of testicular function and testosterone levels in treatment of 2ºhypogonadism (most common cause of low T) • Proellex: PHASE 2 treatment for uterine fibroids and endometriosis with pending patent/ patent life to the mid 2020’s (+$5B market) – Chronic relief of uterine fibroid symptoms – Fibroid de-bulking – Chronic relief of the symptoms associated with endometriosis • Key late stage clinical & regulatory events expected in 2013

 
 

Testosterone Market Continues to Grow • 2012 worldwide sales >$2.1B • US accounts for nearly 75% of global sales • Major pharmaceutical companies have moved to capture 83% of US opportunity Worldwide Testosterone Sales

Who are the men using testosterone? European Male Aging Study Distribution and Selected Characteristics of Men Ages 40-79 (Tajar et al)

 
 

Secondary Hypogonadism • Majority of men with low T have secondary hypogonadism • Results from a suppression of secretion of pituitary hormones – Obese men are estrogenized • LH & FSH secretions are low to low normal • Testosterone Levels <300ng/dl • Men with secondary hypogonadism are typically still fertile Testes Hypothalamus/ Pituitary Axis • Luteinizing hormone (LH) drives Leydig cell production of testosterone • Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) drives spermatogenesis in the Sertoli cells of the testes Testes Hypothalamus/ Pituitary Axis

 
 

Approved T Replacement Products Shutdown Testicular Function Testes Hypothalamus/ Pituitary Axis •Pituitary secretions decrease or shut down •Testicular function decreases or shuts down •30% of men castrated at the level of the pituitary Leydig Cell Activity Suppressed Spermatogenesis Suppressed Leading to Infertility T Over 30% of men with secondary hypogonadism administered an approved topical testosterone have undetectable pituitary and testicular function They are castrated at the level of the pituitary Exogenous T & Endogenous Estrogen provide negative feedback

 
 

Day to Day Morning T Variability Sampling of Placebo Subjects ZA-003 Should these men be prescribed testosterone replacement therapy?

 
 

Androxal Restores Normal Testicular Function Testes Increased Testosterone Secretion Androxal •Androxal blocks estrogen at the level of the pituitary •Allows responsiveness to low T conditions •Leads to increased LH & FSH to stimulate normal testicular function • Increased LH and FSH levels T Hypothalamus/ Pituitary Axis

 
 

FDA Accepts Phase 3 Protocol Under an SPA • Phase 3 pivotal studies being conducted under SPA – 2 identical trials (BMI > 25, Age ≤60) • 152 subjects in each trial (114 on Androxal, 38 on placebo) – Men with morning T<300 ng/dL assessed twice on two separate days • Up-titration from 12.5 to 25 • 3 month duration – Co-primary endpoints • 75% of men achieve T in normal range (300-1040 ng/dL) • Non inferior to placebo regarding change in sperm counts • Safety Requirements – >100 for one year – >800 for 6 months – 100 subject one year DEXA study (bone marker data suggests Androxal builds bone) • Goal to Submit NDA Q2 2014

Third Party Study Indicates Favorable Reimbursement Potential for Androxal Majority of payers believe Androxal’s oral administration and non-chronic use may offer overall cost savings – Third party assessment of payers indicates vast majority (>90%) would add Androxal to formularies • Cost will be key for tier placement • 50% of plans indicated they would require a PA(Prior Authorization) to show proper diagnosis • 62% of respondents expect Androxal to be priced at parity to Androgel • Anticipated Androxal pricing of $170-350/month would be competitive with Androgel

 
 

Androxal Take Home Message • Because of Obesity, 30% of American Males are at Risk of Secondary Hypogonadism –Co-morbidities include diabetes and cardiovascular disease • Approved T Products Worsen the Underlying Condition • We believe only Androxal + Diet + Exercise can reverse this disorder
