5LYFEBULB VENTURES OVERVIEW
• Diabetes represents a large and rapidly growing global market with huge unmet medical needs
• There is an immense and untapped opportunity in type 1 diabetes (T1D), an autoimmune disease with a more aggressive and predictable disease progression, which can be extended to other autoimmune disease and insulin-dependent type 2 diabetes (T2D)
• Strong team, with a track record of building valuable companies, including diabetes experts, life sciences entrepreneurs and former executives, driven by a desire to remove the burden of diabetes while returning a profit to investors
• Second to none global network in medical science, the corporate world and the investment community allowing for superior deal flow and favorable exit scenarios

LYFEBULB
• Insulin replacement, the only option in T1D and for many T2D, saves lives, but does not render people without risk of complications
• Both T1D and Insulin Dependent T2D are addressed by many of the same regenerative targets, growing the market by 4-5 times
• T1D is characterized by an inability to control blood sugar due to the loss of insulin secreting cells (beta-cells) driven by an autoimmune process: genes and environment are involved• Autoimmune diseases such as Celiac Disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Multiple Sclerosis (MS),
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) etc have similar pathology and increase the size of the target market
• Improved understanding of the pathology of T1D enables earlier diagnosis, identification of at-risk scenarios and provides the potential for prevention and treatment to preserve, regenerate or replace beta-cells
• The importance of incentive models and data-driven approaches are showing promise in improving outcomes, and reimbursed, for both T1D and T2D

• Animas and Dexcom investors yielded high ROI through sale to JNJ and an IPO • Patients benefited from insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring systems, showing improved
glucose control and better outcomes • In recent years, investors have focused on fully automated systems, Bigfoot and BetaBionics, and overall
diabetes management tools, Livongo• Improves compliance and glucose control but do not CURE the patients
• Breakthrough technologies such as cell therapy and vaccines have even bigger potential
