BUSINESS UPDATE

Strategic pivot

• In support of the Company’s strategic pivot, in Sept. 2023, we raised $1.33 million in gross proceeds ($1.08 million in net proceeds) via a registered direct offering with H.C. Wainwright & Co. acting as placement agent.

• In order to extend our cash runway and address the Nasdaq minimum shareholders’ equity compliance issue, our primary creditor, the European Investment Bank (EIB), is currently considering favorably adjusting the terms of the EIB’s financial facility contract with the Company, in particular by extending the facility’s maturity. There is no guarantee that the EIB will approve the adjustment of the terms of the EIB’s financial facility with the Company. In addition, we are implementing a cost saving plan as mentioned in our Q2’23 financial results press release.

• As part of the strategic pivot, in September 2023 the company rebranded as Scinai Immunotherapeutics.

New CDMO Business Unit’s first client

• In October 2023, the Company closed its first contract to provide CDMO services. We are in advanced contract discussions with several other potential clients. In addition, we are pursuing extensive targeted marketing activities, including participation at major pharmaceutical conferences such as CPHI in Barcelona (October 2023) and BIO-Europe in Munich (November 2023).

Pipeline Development

• We are aggressively advancing the NanoAb preclinical development. Meaningful ex vivo results for our IL-17 NanoAb tested in human psoriatic skin specimens are anticipated in Q4 ’23, and we continue to expect to enter clinical testing of the NanoAb as a biobetter psoriasis treatment in 2024.

• NanoAbs for treatment of additional autoimmune diseases, such as asthma and wet AMD have been discovered and characterized at Max Planck and University Medical Center Göttingen as part of their research collaboration agreement with Scinai. Scinai holds exclusive options for exclusive licenses at pre agreed financial terms for each of the resulting NanoAbs.

• We are pursuing a strategic partnership for our COVID-19 self-administered inhaled NanoAb which demonstrated highly promising in vivo results in animals as both a therapeutic and prophylactic treatment.
