• Focused on the development of a new class of human therapeutics that function at the DNA level with the goal of “Engineering Genetic Cures”

• Driven by multiple robust technology platforms

– Zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) can be designed to bind to any DNA sequence with singular specificity

– Targeted genome editing and gene regulation

– Broad AAV delivery capabilities, manufacturing and IP

• Broad commercial applications in research reagents, transgenic animals, agriculture, manufacturing and human therapeutics

• Significant partnerships and strong balance sheet

• Dominant intellectual property position
