The words ''anticipate,'' ''believe,'' ''continue,'' ''could,'' ''estimate,'' ''expect,'' ''intend,'' ''may,'' ''plan,'' ''potential,'' ''predict,'' ''project,'' ''target,'' ''should,'' ''would,'' and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include statements regarding the initiation, timing, progress and results of the Company's preclinical and clinical studies and its research and development programs, including initiating the adolescent cohort in the RUBY trial in 2024 and establishing in vivo proof-of-concept for an undisclosed indication in 2024, the timing for the Company's receipt and presentation of data from its clinical trials and preclinical studies, including RUBY clinical updates in mid-2024 and by year-end 2024, the potential of, and expectations for, the Company's product candidates, the timing or likelihood of regulatory filings and approvals, the Company's expectations regarding commercial readiness, and the Company's expectations regarding cash runway. The Company may not actually achieve the plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward- looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including: uncertainties inherent in the initiation and completion of pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, including the RUBY and EdiTHAL trials, and clinical development of the Company's product candidates, including reni-cel; availability and timing of results from pre-clinical studies and clinical trials; whether interim results from a clinical trial will be predictive of the final results of the trial or the results of future trials; expectations for regulatory approvals to conduct trials or to market products and availability of funding sufficient for the Company's foreseeable and unforeseeable operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements. These and other risks are described in greater detail under the caption "Risk Factors" included in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as updated by the Company's subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in other filings that the Company may make with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the future. Any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation represent Company's views only as of the date hereof and should not be relied upon as representing its views as of any subsequent date. Except as required by law, the Company explicitly disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is an Inherited Life-Threatening Hematological Disorder Manifesting Shortly After Birth

SICKLE CELL DISEASE is a genetic blood disorder caused by mutations in the HBB gene that causes sickling of RBCs;

this leads to anemia, hemolysis, and VOEs1,2

UPREGULATION OF FETAL HEMOGLOBIN (HbF) is a

naturally validated therapeutic strategy to control complications of SCD

SCD AFFECTS3,4,5

~100K

PEOPLE

IN THE U.S.

EDITAS EDITS THE HBG1 AND HBG2 PROMOTERS USING AsCAS12a ENZYME, AN APPROACH THAT IS DESIGNED TO:

  • Upregulate HbF robustly
  • Correct anemia with superior red blood cell production and health vs. BCL11A approach
  • Reduce risk of off-target editing with high fidelity and high efficiency proprietary AsCas12a enzyme

Reni-cel is potentially a "best in class" medicine with consistent correction of anemia

HBB, β-globin gene; RBC, red blood cell; SCD, sickle cell disease; VOE, vaso-occlusive event.

  • Safety profile is consistent with myeloablative busulfan conditioning and autologous HSCT
  • No serious adverse events (SAEs) related to reni-cel were reported after reni-cel infusion

Data cutoff November 22, 2023.

*The pre-study period is defined as the 2-year period prior to informed consent. One patient had 23 days of follow-up after infusion as of the data cut; neutrophil engraftment and platelet engraftment were not achieved yet; engraftment values are therefore based on n=10. Three consecutive measurements with absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥0.5 × 109/L. §Three consecutive measurements with platelet count

≥50 × 109/L starting at least 7 days after the platelet transfusion, and 10 days after thrombopoietin (TPO). No TPO was used for patients after reni-cel infusion.

HSCT, hematopoietic stem cell transplant; reni-cel, renizgamglogene autogedtemcel; SCD, sickle cell disease; SD, standard deviation; SAE, serious adverse event; VOE, vaso-occlusive event.
