ASX:IIL - Investment thesis

• IIL’s lead drug candidate MIS416 will complete a double blindedplacebo controlled Phase 2B trial for secondary progressivemultiple sclerosis (SPMS) in April 2017

• There is already strong evidence of safety and likely efficacy fromprior trials and a unique 7 year ‘compassionate use’ programme

• There are no drugs currently approved for the safe ongoingtreatment of SPMS

• This unmet medical need could equate to a potential worldwideannual market of at least US$7.5B or more

• Many large drug companies are following IIL very closely

• IIL expects trial outcomes and a pharma transaction in H2/2017

Bioshares: “What has been learned about the market need for your

product while it has been in clinical trials?”

• The unmet medical need in SPMS is just as great today as it was in 2009. Anest. 2.3 million people suffer from MS worldwide of which (30%) ~700,000have the progressive highly disabling SP form of MS.

• The commercial opportunity has increased significantly! Between 2008 and2012, US sales of disease modifying therapies (DMT) for RRMS doubled from$4 billion to nearly $9 billion annually. 2015 WW DMT sales = US$20.5 billion

5

• Before and since May 2009, no DMT’s have been approved forprogressive MS (either SPMS or PPMS):

• Dec 2014: RRMS anti S1-P1 drug Fingolimod failed Phase 3 in PPMS

• Oct 2015: RRMS drug Tysabri failed Phase 3 in SPMS

• Mar 2016: Phase 2 trial of repurposed Rituximab in SPMS abandoned

• Jun 2016: Biogen’s anti-lingo-1 misses primary endpoint in RRMS/SPMSFor

Bioshares: “What has been learned about the market need for your

product while it has been in clinical trials?”

• What’s in the near-term SPMS Phase 3 pipeline?

• Novartis’ S1-P1 drug Siponimod Phase 3 trial in SPMS due to read out inH2/2016. Drug in same class (Fingolimod) previously failed in PPMS.

• Roche’s B-cell targeting Ocrelizumab should be approved for PRIMARYprogressive MS (NOT SPMS) later this year. Very modest efficacy signalin subset of PPMS patients. Likely some off-label use in SPMS.

6

• What’s our latest estimate of the SMPS market size?

• Based on 2015 RRMS drug sales of US$20.5 billon and RRMS patientsrepresenting ~60% of WW sufferers, we now estimate the potential WWmarket value for SPMS drugs to be US$7.5b to US$10b.

• Based on the RRMS experience, the SPMS market could support multipleUS$1b+ drugs once drugs like ours (MIS416) become available.

Bioshares: “What have you learnt through the clinical trial process –

what would you have done differently?”

• Even if the CRO and the PIs tell you they can execute the study plan – it paysto have a plan ‘B’ or be able to develop one quick ...

• Resident patient population is not predictive of site recruitment performance!

• If you’re running an AU based study, it pays to also have as many NZ sites aspossible. Plan for it with a R&D incentive ‘Advance Finding’.

• Patients with SPMS who volunteer for clinical trials are tough and they stickwith the programme.

to your clinical programme?”

So here’s the bad news about clinical trials generally:

So here’s the good news about Innate’s clinical trial:

“I would certainly recommend MIS416 as I have seen significant improvementin the motor skills and general wellbeing of my current MS patients.”

Bioshares: “Is Innate a binary investment play”

• Let’s be very clear - our SPMS clinical programme is ourmajor ‘asset’. Notwithstanding our other programmesin other indications, outright Phase 2B clinicalfailure would be very hard to survive!

• “Clinical failure” would equate to no real difference between MIS416 treatedpatients and placebo treated patients.

• We believe “clinical failure” to be an unlikely outcome – otherwise allprevious patient / caregiver / doctor reports of sustained and significantbenefits would need to be 100% attributable to nothing more than placeboeffect – sustained over several years. We do not believe that to be the case!

Bioshares: “How would the quality of the result impact

a potential deal?”

So what does clinical success look like?

• Firstly, the absence of any currently approved treatment together with theseriousness of the disease means that the efficacy bar is set very low.

• Secondly, the goal to date has been to slow progression, i.e. to slow theworsening of disabilities. A drug that improves a range of disabilities wouldhave to be game changer.

11

• We think a modest result could be say 20% of the treated patients showinga 20% or better treatment effect compared to placebo.

• A good result could be 30% of the patients showing a 25% or better effect.

• A solid result could be 40% of the patients showing 30% or better effect.

• A really good day at the office would be 50% showing 30% or better.

• We believe any of the above would drive a significant “deal”. Obviously thebetter the result - the better the deal. .

Recent MS related “Deals”

Partnering - early stage SPMS programme

• December 2014: Servier paid US$47 million ‘option fee’ tofund Phase 2B trial of GeNeuro’s blocking antibody tosupposed MS-associated retrovirus

• Received option to the non-US territorial rights tied to a$408 million package of milestones

• The non-US territory accounts for about only 25% of globalMS drug revenues

See announcement: <http://tinyurl.com/fb141202>

Acquisition - latestage RRMS drugkey asset

• August 2015:Celgeneacquired Phase3 MS companyReceptos forUS$7.2 billionnet cash

• Deal has rankedReceptos #1 forthe most valuecreated by anybiotech in thelast 10 years

Buyout Partner – commercial stage RRMS drug

• February 2013: Biogen acquired 100% control of RRMS drugTysabri after paying former 50/50 partner Elan US$3.25billion upfront plus contingency payments of between 12 and25% of global sales

• At the time of this transaction the FDA had already issued a'black box' warning concerning the safety of Tysabri

Bioshares: “What is the upside for Innate if successful study

results are achieved?”

• The last patient in the current Phase 2B study will complete treatment in lateApril 2017. We expect to announce top line results about 4 months later.

• At that time, we expect there to be no more than 250 million shares on issue(assuming all current options convert). We carry no debt.

• We have been diligently and successfully building relationships with morethan 10 pharma companies who are keenly interested in the programme.

• We will most likely seek an outright sale of the Companythrough a competitive bidding process at the end of 2017.

• We believe that even a modest trial result will achievea very significant financial outcome for shareholders.
