2 Number of publications Number of patents DEINOCOCCUS A NEW SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL OPPORTUNITY NUMBER OF PUBLICATIONS PER GENUS NUMBER OF PATENTS PER GENUS Escherichia coli Microorganisms Microorganisms Saccharomyces cerevisiae Deinococcus Deinococcus geothermalis Deinove holds the largest collection of Deinococci in the world (6,000 strains) A proprietary technological platform (16 patents) with validation through a POC (DEINOL) The world pioneer in deinotechnologies and their IP. 2

3 DEINOVE DEINOCOCCUS GENUS D. radiodurans discovered in 1956, by accident. Pr. Miroslav Radman: DNA repair research. Industrial tool: Deinove creation in 2006.

4 DEINOVE CORPORATION KEY DATES Deinobank (25 strains) Proprietary technological platform Initiation of DEINOBIOTICS program Initiation of DEINOCHEM program Deinobank (6 000 strains) Initiation of DEINOL program DEINOL EC2 (POC) THANAPLAST program DEINOL EC1 DEINOBIOTICS SAS Inception, co-founders Pr Miroslav RADMAN Dr Philippe POULETTY OSEO funding ( 6 m) Jacques BITON CEO OSEO funding ( 1.57 m) IPO ( 12 m) Partnership with TEREOS Partnership with VTT OSEO funding ( 1.4 m) Emmanuel PETIOT CEO Nagib WARD Exec VP OSEO funding ( 1.15 m) Market Cap: 53 m 30 FTE Staff

5 DEINOVE 6000 STRAINS LIBRARY, MANY UNSUAL Diverse environments have been targeted unusual selection by irradiation unusual carbon sources Deinococcus library (1800 strains) AND diverse library of original strains (4200) All strains collected according to the international laws (CBD) Source of original new biocatalysts 5

7 DEINOVE SSCF PROCESS 7

8 DEINOVE INDUSTRIAL ADVANTAGES Operating at 47-52C allows maximizing enzymes at their biochemical optimum, minimizing doses. CBP: enzymes are excreted in solutions to boost digestion, accelerate cofermentation Outstanding molecular biology tool to express specific sequences: Enzymes Metabolic Pathways An polyextremophile with remarkable resistance to harsh conditions or toxic substances. Vast IP opportunities for a largely unknown and underutilized bacterial strain. Metabolizes C3s but also coassimilates C6 and C5s. 8

9 DEINOVE PROCESS BENEFITS IN INDUSTRY Higher temperature (~50C): Inhibitors/Products resistance: Molecular Transformation: CBP/Enzyme release: IP Opportunities: Lower infection rates/risks Lower enzyme dose by leveraging biochemical optimums Allows utilizing cellulosic sugars Maximizes product yields Express proprietary sequences. Introduce new metabolic pathways Significantly affect conversion/hydrolysis costs Promote optimal process type: SSF Vastly unfiled IP field. 9

14 THE DEINO WAY TO RENEWABLE CHEMICALS 14

15 DEINOCHEM OUR GREEN BIOTRANSFORMING PLATFORM Our biochemical platforms leverage Deinoccocus advantageous properties in industrial settings: The extreme robustness of the bacterial strains Their feedstock flexibility and usage efficiency The genetic modification efficiency and optimization of DEINOVE s strains These properties are key success factors for DEINOVE s targeted industrial applications, by: allowing a customization of the platforms for each commercial partner being independent of either the starting feedstock or pretreatment technology employed 15

17 DEINOVE BIOTRANSFORMATION Specific molecular biology tools are necessary to biotransform Deinove s strains. Exact location genetic insertions, or deletions (KO). Numerous genetic cassettes can be expressed at high levels.

18 new sites in progress Available sites 0 Multi-targetting cassette Specific targetting cassette Deinococcus main chromosome

19 DEINOVE DEINOL CONVERSION RATES Green chemicals do not command price premiums in the market: Conversion rates and both products and feedstock prices are key! ADEME announced its support of Deinove s Terpenoids production ambition: $8.5MUSD in

20 DEINOCHEM MARKET OPPORTUNITIES Terpenoids: Linalool, Geraniol and B-Pinene Pathway Intermediates: Isopentene/isopentane Nutraceuticals: Green Chemicals: Prebiotics: Xylitol and Fucosylated Sugars Carotenoids Succinic Acid PDO Adipic Acid HMD 20

21 DEINOCHEM THE WAY TO ISOPRENOIDS The largest family of natural substances in the world: More than 22,000 isoprene compounds Many industrial applications: creams, fragrance, detergents, anti-cancer agents DEINOCHEM program Resources dedicated to the program (2012 launch/2013 acceleration) Promising early work from our laboratories Advanced discussions with many world leading industrials partners Looking for new production standards: Extraction from plants and chemical synthesis suffer from low yields and high production costs 21
