Forward-looking statements

Information set forth in this presentation contains forward-looking statements, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the anticipated benefits of our products, the anticipated benefits of the merger, including future financial and operating results, the combined company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, the anticipated timing and results of the combined company's clinical and pre-clinical programs, and other statements that are not historical facts. We caution readers that any forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information. These include risks and uncertainties relating to: our failure to successfully integrate the businesses; unexpected costs or liabilities resulting from the merger; the risk that synergies from the merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; disruption from the merger making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees or suppliers; competition and its effect on pricing, spending, third-party relationships and revenues; the need to develop new products and adapt to significant technological change; implementation of strategies for improving internal growth; use and protection of intellectual property; general worldwide economic conditions and related uncertainties; future legislative, regulatory, or tax changes as well as other economic, business and/or competitive factors; and the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our international operations. T he list of risks above is not exhaustive. Our Registration Statement on Form F-4, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the merger, and other filings and items furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission, contain additional factors that could impact our businesses and financial performance following the merger.

  • zSignificantly reduced Wake After Sleep Onset (WASO)
  • zStrong effect on sleep onset (LPS)
  • zReduced wake time in second half of the night
  • zReduced daytime sleepiness
  • zMinimal residual sedation at either dose
  • zImproved categorical ratings of sleep quality

Study EVT 2004: Objective efficacy from polysomnography Total Wake Time hour-by-hour

EVT 201 significantly reduced Total Wake Time each hourexcept of hour 7 (where p=0.058)

Study EVT 2005: Daytime sleepiness Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT)

Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT)

Error bars represent 95% confidence interval

Our assessment of EVT 201's best-in-class profile: Expected differentiation on safety & efficacy

zStrong sleep maintenance, more sustained effect in the 2nd half of the night

  • Vs. Ambien CR, Lunesta
  • pPAM pharmacology expected to produce less tolerance
  • z Reduced daytime sleepiness in elderly
  • Suffering from daytime sleepiness due to insomnia ¾using gold standard methodology
  • No similar data on Ambien CR, Lunesta published
  • z Potential for superior safety profile as a result of its pPAM pharmacology
  • Potentially better tolerated at therapeutic dose or multiples
    • -Vs. full agonists at the GABAA receptor such as zolpidem

Best-in-class potential on safety & efficacy

EVT 101: Oral NR2B subtype selective NMDA receptor antagonist

  • z NMDA subtype selectivity of EVT 101 supports hypothesis of better side effect profile, better efficacy in Alzheimer's
  • z Memantine / Namenda, a non-selective NMDA antagonist in Alzheimer's disease, reached blockbuster sales in year 3
  • z Potential in neurodegenerative diseases, peri-operative and neuropathic pain
  • z Status
  • Phase I successfully completed
  • Phase Ib studies preliminary results
  • Phase II POC study planned to start 2008

EVT 101: 4 week Phase Ib higher repeat dose cognition study, dosing completed

  • z No significant adverse events or concerns from all safety monitoring assessments
  • zEVT 101 continues to be well tolerated with longer treatment at higher doses
  • z Brain penetration (CSF levels) assessed in a subgroup receiving EVT 101 daily for 8 days

  • Concentrations reached in the CSF extrapolated to produce significant level of block of the NR2B receptor

  • Significantly greater t han extrapolated level of block for therapeutic dose of Memantine

EVT 101: Brain imaging fMRI study in healthy volunteers completed

  • zStudy completed at Institute of Psychiatry London
  • z Single dose of placebo, 8, 15 mg EVT 101 given to 19 healthy subjects
  • EVT 101 well tolerated with no significant adverse effects

Signals for efficacy in two disease applications:

  • z Alzheimer's Disease:
  • z Modulation of the activity of specific brain regions (memory retrieval network) during the performance of cognitive tasks

zPain:

z Increase in baseline regional blood flow in brain area involved in pain processing (anterior cingulate cortex – rich in NR2B receptors)

Provides first evidence of effect upon brain in man

EVT 302: Selective MAO-B inhibitor smoking cessation and Alzheimer's

  • z Orally active, potent, highly selective MAO-B inhibitor
  • Potential for once weekly dosing
  • Competitive safety & tolerability profile over other MAO-B inhibitors –no food effect / label
  • z Validating MOA data in addiction & neurodegeneration
  • Phase II in smoking cessation (selegiline, lazabemide)
  • Phase III in Alzheimer's Disease
  • z Smoking cessation - a large consumer-driven market
  • z Status
  • Phase II started
  • Phase I safety + Positron Emission Tomography (PET) studies successfully completed
