1 Forward Looking Statements Some of the matters discussed in this presentation contain forward - looking statements that involve significant risks and uncertainties, including statements relating to the prospects for the Company’s lead product EGP - 437, for the timing and outcome of the Company’s clinical trials, the potential approval to market EGP - 437, and the Company’s capital needs. Actual events could differ materially from those projected in this presentation and the Company cautions investors not to rely on the forward - looking statements contained in, or made in connection with, the presentation. Among other things, the Company’s clinical trials may be delayed or may eventually be unsuccessful. The Company may consume more cash than it currently anticipates and faster than projected. Competitive products may reduce or eliminate the commercial opportunities of the Company’s product candidates. If the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or foreign regulatory agencies determine that the Company’s product candidates do not meet safety or efficacy endpoints in clinical evaluations, they will not receive regulatory approval and the Company will not be able to market them. Operating expense and cash flow projections involve a high degree of uncertainty, including variances in future spending rate due to changes in corporate priorities, the timing and outcomes of clinical trials, regulatory and developments and the impact on expenditures and available capital from licensing and strategic collaboration opportunities. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, it may have to significantly alter, delay, scale back or discontinue operations. Additional risks and uncertainties relating to the Company and its business can be found in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2016 and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10 - Q filed August 10, 2016. The Company undertakes no duty or obligation to update any forward - looking statements contained in this presentation as a result of new information, future events or changes in the Company’s expectations, except as required by applicable law.

17 Two Unique Ophthalmic Platforms Iontophoresis CMHA - S

 
 

18 CMHA - S Platform ▪ Cross - linked thiolated hyaluronic acid (CMHA - S) platform • Hyaluronic Acid (HA) – a polymer of disaccharides ▪ HA occurs naturally in the human body with qualities ideal for ocular surface • Promotion of wound healing and lubrication ▪ Native HA has a relatively short half - life ( degrades rapidly ) • Crosslinking HA creates a 3D structure that stabilizes the molecule ( resists degradation ) • Adheres longer to the ocular surface • Higher viscosity that thins with blinking and is non blurring • Matrix protects the ocular surface ▪ Can be formulated as a liquid ( eye drop ) or a solid (shield/film) • Clinical study with eye drop formulation to treat corneal defects/wounds on target for enrolling by year - end

 
 

19 The EyeGate Ocular Bandage Gel Eye Drop Formulation ▪ A clear hydrogel (or liquigel ) eye drop with a 0.75% concentration of CMHA - S • Cross - linked to provide reduced degradation on the eye • Exhibits significant shear thinning properties, that enables better residence time with less optical blur ▪ Forms a thin layer over the ocular surface, protecting the eye: • Promoting and accelerating re - epithelization in the management of epithelial defects following surgery, injection, traumatic, and non - traumatic conditions ▪ Commercially available as a veterinary device, manufactured by SentrX Animal Care and sold in the U.S. by Bayer Animal Health as Remend ® Corneal Repair 1 • 5 years in dogs, cats and horses, with an excellent safety profile ▪ Efficacy has been demonstrated in masked, randomized clinical studies of corneal defects in dogs and cats Molly a 12 year old cat with a non - healing corneal defect • Non - healing at 42 days (A) • Ulcer healing after 12 days of using 0.75% CMHA - S (B) 1.

Healing Corneal Ulcers with an Eye Drop Efficacy Study: Cats and Dogs ▪ Post - traumatic corneal stromal ulceration is painful and potentially sight - threatening ▪ Study Objective 1 : Compare healing time (corneal re - epithelialization) of corneal stromal ulcers in cats and dogs in a clinical setting using crosslinked CMHA - S versus non - crosslinked HA • Animals diagnosed with naturally occurring acute corneal stromal ulceration • Animals randomized to either arm, double - masked • Animals received 1 - 2 drops of CMHA - S or HA in affected eye, 3x/day, until healed • Ulcer presence evaluated by fluorescein staining; time to ulcer healing (no staining) documented ▪ Results: Ulcers healed significantly faster with CMHA - S than with non - crosslinked HA • Cats (N=30 or 15 per arm): 21.0 vs 31.8 days (p=0.01) for CMHA - S vs HA respectively • Dogs (N=30 or 15 per arm): 14.8 vs 18.3 days (p=0.04) for CMHA - S vs HA respectively ▪ A topical treatment that increases rate of ulcer healing would potentially be clinically important Finnegan Bell, a 5 year old cat with a non - healing corneal defect • Non - healing at 35 days (A) • Healed after 10 days of using 0.75% CMHA - S (B) 20 1.

Healing Corneal Abrasions and Alkali Burns Efficacy Study: Rabbits ▪ Study Objective 1 : Evaluate the efficacy of CMHA - S for treatment of corneal epithelial abrasion and standardized alkali burn injuries • 12 NZW rabbits, 6 per group, both eyes, wounds = 6.0mm x 6.0mm • Rabbits received CMHA - S drops in right eye and PBS drops in left eye (control), 4x/day for 1 week • Wound size determined by fluorescein staining; corneas collected for histological examination ▪ Results: Wound closure rate of central corneal epithelium faster in CMHA - S group • Abrasion: Wound closure complete at 48 hours with CMHA - S • Burns: Complete re - epithelization at Day 12 for CMHA - S but not for control • Also, CMHA - S treated cornea exhibited better epithelial and stromal organization than control group In addition to enhanced rate of healing, CMHA - S appears to significantly improve the quality of the healed corneal epithelium 21 1.

22 ▪ Epithelial defects can lead to ocular infections, inflammation, corneal neovascularization, and vision loss if not treated promptly and healed rapidly. • Infectious keratitis (corneal infections and ulcers) that result from an exposed corneal surface can be a major cause of vision loss. ▪ The World Health Organization estimates that corneal opacities, including corneal ulceration, are the 4 th leading cause of blindness in the world. • Annual occurrence of corneal ulcers is roughly 1.5 to 2 million cases ▪ Billion $ opportunity as corneal epithelial defects are highly prevalent • 18% of emergency room visits (trauma, work related injuries) • Military (chemical and blast injuries) • Diabetics with corneal wounds • Superficial Punctate Keratitis • Surgical procedures including, Lasik, Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) and Cataract ▪ NO eye drop approved or available in the US for accelerating corneal re - epithelization Large Underserved Market The EyeGate Ocular Bandage Gel

 
 

▪ Initial pilot study will be for photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) patients • Objective is to evaluate safety and performance of our eye drop administered QID for 14 days with or without a bandage contact lens (BCL) as compared to artificial tears and a bandage contact lens. • Primary effectiveness endpoint will be time to re - epithelization of epithelial defect following PRK surgery • Prospective, randomized, controlled study in up to 39 subjects undergoing bilateral PRK surgery ▪ Subjects will be randomized 1:1:1 to one of 3 groups, with both eyes of each subject receiving the same treatment: • Arm 1: EyeGate Ocular Bandage Gel QID for 2 weeks after surgery in combination with a BCL • Arm 2: EyeGate Ocular Bandage Gel QID for 2 weeks after surgery without a BCL • Arm 3: Artificial tears and BCL ▪ PRK is an efficacious alternative for patients seeking surgical correction of refractive errors who are not suitable candidates for LASIK. • The military prefers PRK surgery due to the stability of the PRK incision and the absence of risk for flap dislocation during military active duty. ▪ Expect to initiate with first subject enrolled prior to year - end 2016 • Intended for management of corneal epithelial defects and for the acceleration of re - epithelization of the ocular surface following surgery, injection, traumatic, and non - traumatic conditions. 23 The EyeGate Ocular Bandage Gel Clinical Trial Design
