9 EBOPIPRANT Potential to delay preterm birth to improve newborn health and reduce medical costs

U.S. economic burden $26B /yr >1 In 10 babies are born preterm preterm related deaths in 2015 WW * 1million LEADING cause of death in children under age 5 Babies surviving early birth face greater likelihood of lifelong disabilities Preterm birth, a costly burden per baby $16.9B+ U.S. infant medical costs $195K+ average cost per U.S. survivor infant born 24-26 weeks $50K average U.S. cost for a preterm infant WHO 'Born Too Soon: The Global Action Report on Preterm Birth' (2012); Kissin et al. NEJM, 2014 Behrman et al., National Academies Press, 2007 * WHO: 15 million babies born preterm each year worldwide, and number is rising. Preterm birth is delivery before 37 weeks of pregnancy Life altering & costly 10

11 Ebopiprant: an advancement in treatment of preterm labor Orally active, selective prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) receptor antagonist Potential to treat preterm labor with improved safety over non-selective COX *inhibitors (NSAIDS) *COX: cyclooxygenase

Ebopiprant represents an evolution of therapy for preterm labor (PTL) 12 No FDA-approved PTL treatment available in the US* Treatment includes off-label use of COX (non-selective prostaglandin inhibitors), calcium channel blockers, beta-mimetics Current treatments associated with safety issues that limit use Atosiban (intravenous oxytocin receptor antagonist) approved in EU and some Asian countries Ebopiprant is an oral selective prostaglandin inhibitor Potential for similar efficacy with improved safety *Makena is a progestin used for the prevention of PTL in women with a prior history of preterm birth; it is not approved for the treatment of PTL

Ebopiprant is designed to delay delivery by at least 48 hours 13 IC Hi Vicki, A few more thoughts about slide 10/11 for consideration. I hope this helps! Slide 10: the key message we want to convey is the importance of this 48 hour window for improving newborn health (facilitate lung maturity and patient transfer to neonatal intensive care facilities). Let's focus on illustrating newborn health. Slide 11: the key message we want to convey is epopiprant is the only PGF2alpha receptor antagonist and has potential best-in-class efficacy (so the mechanism of action, route of administration and efficacy differs from atosiban… hence the evolution). Let me know of any questions! Thanks for jumping in on your first day �� Mari Purpura, Ph.D. Short-term prolongation of pregnancy (at least 48 hours) provides a critical window for impact on neonatal outcomes: Allows full effect of corticosteroids on neonatal lung maturity Prematurity associated with respiratory complications due to insufficient lung maturation Corticosteroids used to speed up maturation process Maximum effect occurs ~48+ hours after administration Allows patient transfer to centers with NICU* *NICU=neonatal intensive care unit

Ebopiprant Phase 2a PROLONG study Hospitalisation Dosing period and FU visit - Visits at site - Maternal and neonatal FU - Site visits or medical records - Infant follow-up - Non-interventional, no site visits - Term# +6 M Term# +12 M Term# +24 M ebopiprant or placebo Screening and day 1 Follow-up visit D1 D2 D3 D14 End of treatment visit Atosiban D7 # Expected Term ≤24h Delivery Delivery +28 D Study design: Double-blind, randomized Atosiban + Ebopiprant vs Atosiban + Placebo Endpoints: Incidence of delivery within 48 hours and 7 days of treatment Time to delivery and delivery prior to 37 weeks of gestation Maternal, fetal, neonatal safety 14

Ebopiprant Phase 2a PROLONG study Demographics and baseline characteristics 15

Overall delivery rate within 48 hours reduced by > 50% 16 Percentage of women delivering within 48 hours

Singleton delivery rate within 48 hours reduced by > 50% 17 Percentage of women delivering within 48 hours

Singleton 24-30wk delivery rate within 7 days reduced by 40% 18 Percentage of women delivering within 7 days

Ebopiprant Phase 2b dose ranging study Anticipated initiation 2H:21* 19 Study Design: Global (EU and Asia) Dose escalating Double-blind, randomized Atosiban + Ebopiprant vs Atosiban + Placebo Key Eligibility Criteria: Single gestation 24-34 weeks Confirmed preterm labor No contraindication to tocolysis Endpoints: Optimal dose Incidence of delivery within 48 hours and 7 days of treatment Time to delivery and delivery prior to 37 weeks of gestation Maternal, fetal, neonatal safety *Discussions with FDA on requirements for US clinical development to occur in parallel 19

Ebopiprant, a potential breakthrough for preterm labor 20 Ebopiprant has demonstrated proof of concept in delaying preterm birth, enabling ObsEva to plan its further development Enabling administration of critical drugs for neonatal protection Maternal, fetal and neonatal safety comparable to placebo Phase 2b study will include higher doses to more fully define ebopiprant potential and the longer-term benefits for babies

DESIGNED to TREAT more women suffering from uterine fibroids Yselty®, our proposed trade name for linzagolix, is conditionally acceptable for the FDA. Linzagolix has not been approved by FDA for any indication for use. Linzagolix is an investigational drug.

Uterine fibroids A significant unmet need translating into a multibillion market total U.S. costs from direct costs, lost workdays and complications $34B /yr 9million women in the U.S. affected by fibroids of women have fibroids by age 50 70%+ Quality of Life 600,000 300,000 >4 million premenopausal women may experience heavy menstrual bleeding, anemia, bloating, infertility, pain and swelling hysterectomies are performed annually in the U.S. women in the U.S. are treated annually for fibroids are because of uterine fibroids 22 Cardozo et al., Am J Obstet Gynecol 2012; Stewart et al.

GnRH antagonist mechanism of action 23

Yselty® is the only GnRH antagonist being developed to provide differentiated options for women suffering from uterine fibroids The promise of the GnRH antagonists Dose dependent reduction of estradiol (E2) 24 60 20 E2 concentration (pg/mL) 1 Optimal Range 2 Partial suppression reduces E2 into the optimal zone, minimizing BMD loss and eliminating the need for ABT Full suppression virtually eliminates E2, requiring ABT to return to the optimal zone and minimizing BMD loss + ABT Symptoms BMD loss 0 ABT = Add Back Therapy (1mg estradiol + 0.5 mg norethindrone acetate) BMD = Bone Mineral Density 100 200 mg with ABT 100 mg without ABT

Bioavailability > 80% Half-life 14-15 hours No CYP3A4 induction/food effect A potential new gold standard treatment for uterine fibroids Differentiated PK/PD profile 25

Uterine fibroids are ruining lives… 26 No two women are the same, but millions share a common problem: suffering the daily consequences of uterine fibroids …Yselty®, designed to treat more women Yselty® 200 mg once daily without ABT Yselty® 100 mg once daily without ABT Yselty® 200 mg once daily with concomitant ABT For short-term use (up to 6 months) when rapid reduction in fibroid and uterine volume is desired For long-term use for women with a contraindication to or who prefer to avoid ABT For long-term use for women for whom ABT is appropriate The hypothetical patients represented on this slide are for illustrative purposes only as no strength of linzagolix has been approved nor is there FDA-approved Prescribing Information to guide clinical decisions
