2 Forward-Looking Statement The statements made by Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (the Company, or us ) herein regarding the Company and its business may be forward-looking in nature and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of Forward-looking statements describe the Company s future plans, projections, strategies and expectations, including statements regarding future results of operations and financial position, business strategy, prospective products, timing and likelihood of success, and objectives of management for future operations, and are based on certain assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including, but not limited to, the risks detailed in the Company s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, and other reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements include all statements which are not historical facts, and can generally be identified by terms such as anticipates, believes, could, estimates, intends, may, plans, projects, should, will, would, or the negative of those terms and similar expressions. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and may be beyond the Company s control, you should not rely on these statements as predictions of future events. Actual results could differ materially from those projected due to our short operating history, history of losses, lack of market acceptance of our products and services, market competition, changes in the local and national economies, and various other factors. All forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether to reflect new information, events or circumstances after the date hereof or otherwise.

3 In Brief.. Synthetic biology/it platform that mitigates trade risk and is already tested by execution and enormous scale; now we must clone the experience. Emerging growth company utilizing molecular-based technology solutions to mitigate risk and uncertainty in global supply chains, large commercial ecosystems. Core SigNature T DNA technology proven at DoD, with law enforcement and in commercial settings. Adopters have concluded that there is a clear and absolute economic benefit to deploying our DNA mark. Growing market awareness converting to broader adoption in business verticals with substantial TAMs. Expanding footprint in established verticals: U.S. government, textiles, automotive. Initial penetration of adjacent verticals in process: synthetic fiber, fertilizer. Longer-term opportunities: pharmaceuticals, food, personal care, licensing.

4 Life has changed. And change is opportunity. And the global supply chain that feeds life is now filled with complexity, uncertainty and risk. Beyond single commercial clients, our DNA/IT platform secures the supply chains of complex commercial ecosystems.

13 Focusing on the mission. Delivering the best outcome. DNA makes it possible. Helping the Defense Logistics Agency secure its electronic microcircuit supply chain. Over 700 thousand components marked.

14 APDN Awarded $1.5 mm Office of Secretary of Defense Rapid Innovation Fund (RIF) Contract An RIF contract provides DLA with innovative technologies that can be rapidly inserted into acquisition programs to meet specific defense needs. This contract will extend the company s authentication platform to facilitate broader use in protecting high-risk or mission-critical materiel purchased by DLA. Awarded by OSD. Managed by DLA HQ. Firm-Fixed Price Development Contract. June 1, 2017 to May , $62.5K/mo

15 DNA marking at cotton gins 8 gins on line; data transfer each minute; DNA charge adequate to tag 50 million lbs Automated dilution for DNA concentrate. DNA added at 1 part per trillion (ppt) of cotton. DNA is activated on demand and applied by aerosol during the dehydration step.

16 The data speak for themselves... Use of SigNature T DNA eliminates fiber substitution and yields a 100% compliant cotton supply chain Before SigNature T DNA Marking Pima compliance less than 30% After SigNature T DNA Marking Pima compliance about 100%
