Special
Note
Regarding
Forward-Looking
Statements
Safe Harbor Statement
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in
this presentation that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our
expectations regarding the approval of products; the prospects for Okapi Sciences; expected product launch dates; the sufficiency of financial resources;
expected future cash balance and liquidity; expectations regarding development programs, trials, studies, and approval; expectations regarding in-license
initiatives, divestitures and partnerships; and expectations regarding the Company’s plans and opportunities. 
These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the
following: our limited operating history and expectations of losses for the foreseeable future; our lack of commercial sales; our failure to obtain any necessary
additional financing; our substantial dependence on the success of certain of our current compounds, AT-001, AT-002 and AT-003, the product candidates
acquired in our Vet Therapeutics transaction and the antiviral compounds acquired in the Okapi Sciences transaction, which are still in development; our
inability to identify, license, develop and commercialize additional product candidates; our inability  to obtain regulatory approval for our existing or future
product candidates;  the lack of commercial success of our current or future product candidates; uncertainties regarding the outcomes of studies regarding
our products; effects of competition; our failure to attract and keep senior management and key scientific personnel; our complete reliance on third-party
manufacturers and third parties to conduct all our target animal studies and certain other development efforts; our lack of a sales organization; our
significant costs of operating as a public company; our lack of effective internal control over financial reporting; changes in distribution channels for pet
therapeutics; consolidation of our customers; impacts of generic products; unanticipated safety or efficacy concerns; our limited patents and patent rights;
our failure to comply with our intellectual property license obligations; our infringement of third party patents and challenges to our patents or rights; our
failure to comply with regulatory requirements; our failure to report adverse medical events related to our products; legislative or regulatory changes; the
volatility of our stock price; our status as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act; the potential for dilution if we sell shares of our
common stock in future financings; the significant control over our business by our principal stockholders and management; the potential that a significant
portion of our total outstanding shares could be sold into the market in the near future; effects of anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and
under Delaware law; and our intention not to pay dividends.  These and other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company’s
most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and our other reports filed with the SEC could cause
actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this presentation. Any such forward-looking statements
represent management's estimates as of the date of this presentation. While we may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the
future, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon
as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation.
