Immune Pharma A Development Stage Monoclonal Antibody Company
  Targeted Medicine


IMMUNE Pharmaceuticals is a New York based biopharmaceutical
company focused on First-in-Class Therapeutics addressing significant
unmet medical needs in Oncology, Immunology and Infectious
Diseases.

IMMUNE is building a portfolio of Clinical and Pre-Clinical MAbs with
multiple shots on goal for $ 1 billion drugs based on novel targets and
proprietary best in class antibody technologies.

IMMUNE is establishing a Research Center in Israel to capitalize on its
academic relationships with Weizmann Institute and Hebrew University.
Immune Pharma Investing in a MAbs company is highly attractive
     Targeted Medicine




1.   Large and Growing Market
        Monoclonal Antibody Market $ 40 B in 2009 to reach $ 60 B by 2014
        5 of top 10 drugs are MAbs and 8 have already reached $ 1 B in sales
2.   Higher Development Success Rate
        50% higher success rate with MAbs compared to small molecules (Tufts CSDD)
        Faster clinical development and regulatory review ( IND to BLA in 6years)
3.   Longer Commercial exclusivity with reduced Generic Threats
        US Healthcare Law provides for at least 12 Years Marketing Exclusivity
        Antibody Complexity and lack of Regulatory consensus to delay Biosimilars
4.   Improved Engineering and Decreasing Manufacturing Costs
        Novel Antibody Engineering delivers improved performance
        Manufacturing Costs have decreased 50% in the last 10 years
5. Rich Partnering Opportunities
         Partnering for innovative phase 2 MAb exceeds $ 500 M per deal value
6. Higher Market and M&A Exit Valuations
        Many company valuations range from $ 500 M to $ 2+ B

Beyond TNFalpha inhibitors
The first highly specific MAb for Rheumatoid Arthritis

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
Immune Pharma Significant Unmet Medical Need
     Targeted Medicine   for new Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment


   Only 30% of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients are treated with TNF-alpha
    blockers (Enbrel $8B, Remicade $6.9B, Humira $ 5.5B)

     1. Unspecific immuno-suppression is responsible for severe and
        occasionally lethal infections, including Tuberculosis,
     2. 2/3 of treated patients have Partial Response with TNF-alpha Blockers
        and still experience daily pain, stiffness and fatigue
     3. 25-40% patients do not respond to TNF-apha blockers even at the lowest
        efficacy level (ACR 20)
     4. 20% of patients experience diminishing response with TNF-alpha
        blockers over the course of the first year


      High Unmet Medical Need for a Highly Specific RA treatment
      with improved efficacy and limited off target safety concerns
