Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results may vary significantly from BTX’s expectations based on a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the following: (i) the evolution of BTX’s business model into a platform company focused on cellular, gene editing and cytokine programs; (ii) BTX’s ability to successfully, cost effectively and efficiently develop its technology and products; (iii) BTX’s ability to successfully commence clinical trials of any products on a timely basis or at all; (iv) BTX’s ability to successfully fund and manage the growth of its development activities; (v) BTX’s ability to obtain regulatory approvals of its products for commercialization; and (vi) uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business and financial condition of BTX, including on the timing and cost of its clinical trials. BTX cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. The industry in which BTX operates is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to variety of factors, including those described in BTX’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 2021 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021 for a more complete discussion of these factors and other risks, particularly under the heading “Risk Factors.” BTX expressly disclaims any obligation to update forward-looking statements after the date of this presentation.   2 
 
 BTX: World’s Only mRNA Cell-Engineering Platform  What is mRNA cell-engineering? Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a special class of molecules that contain the instructions that determine how cells function.  BTX’s platform uses synthetic mRNA with minimized immune response to engineer cells to treat disease by repairing disease-causing mutations and directing the formation of stem cells.BTX is developing a platform of gene-editing and cell therapies based on exclusively in-licensed mRNA technologySynthetic mRNA allows gene editing without provoking an immune responsemRNA therapeutics are safe and highly effective in patientsFast to market – mRNA products have proven accelerated entry into clinical development Low cost of goods sold – mRNA products avoid complex and costly viral-vector manufacturingCan target any geneNo limit to the number or complexity of cellular modifications that can be madeEnables high-potency mRNA and precision cell therapiesEngineered cells are fully rejuvenated with greater expansion allowing more consistent treatments BTX’s in-licensed vehicle safely delivers mRNA to cells inside and outside the body  3
