3. Inovio: Revolutionizing Vaccines
• Inovio’s synthetic vaccine technology designed to:
• Treat some of today’s most challenging diseases
• Universally protect against changing infectious disease strains
• Break the body’s tolerance of cancerous cells
• Targeting unmet needs with multi-billion dollar potential:
cancers, universal flu, HIV, hepatitis B/C virus
• Multiple ongoing clinical trials: phase II and phase I
• Industry-leading potency & safety
• Best-in-class immune responses for cervical dysplasia & HIV
• Dominant global IP position (424 patents issued/pending)
• Validation:
• $35M+ in non-dilutive grant funding over last few years
• Advancing discussions for vaccine product development
partnerships and further grant funding

4. Conventional Vaccines
Increased life expectancy
• Saved millions from sickness/death
• Added decades to life expectancy
• Deliver a virus or part of a virus to
expose a unique antigen (foreign
protein)
• Generate antibodies that prevent
targeted diseases from infecting cells
• Low hanging fruit picked – old Five decade-old technology is great . . .
technology has reached its limitations but does not solve tomorrow’s challenges
• Safety concerns: can cause the
disease or other bad side effects
• Rely on technology that is often more
than 50 years old; some vaccines are
still grown in chicken eggs

5. Synthetic DNA Vaccine Platform
Revolutionizing vaccines through:
• Strong safety profile
• SynCon® “designer vaccines” give the body the DNA instructions to produce only the
targeted antigen - nothing more
• Generate powerful T-cells to kill infected cells or tumors (therapeutic vaccines)
• Manufacturing advantages: rapid, scalable, thermal-stable

Immune responses more cross-reactive (universal)
than those induced by single-strain vaccines Page 6

9. Inovio’s Strategy
• Advance/validate SynCon® + electroporation platform
• Best in-class immunogenicity established in human studies
• Develop proprietary products through proof-of-concept
human data (phase I or phase II)
• Maximize resources/opportunities; spread cost/risk
• Non-dilutive third party funding
• Direct: R&D grants
– $35M received since 2008
• Indirect: clinical trials sponsored by outside agencies
– Seven ongoing studies
• Partner/out-license product for preclinical/clinical
development and marketing
