Slide 8-

How do we define the Digital Health universe? Digital Health is broadly defined as healthcare companies utilizing information technology (“IT”) or software as a primary means of differentiation. The companies span across the healthcare sector, addressing all three key stakeholders: payers, providers and patients Companies working in digital health range from start-ups to established unicorns (Proteus and 23andMe) to large cap tech conglomerates (Google and Apple). In an effort to stratify the universe we group companies into the following 6 sub-verticals in the table below with illustrative companies for each category Overview of Digital Health Landscape Broad universe of companies that address needs across the healthcare continuum Sources: CB Insights Wearable & wireless devices Wellness, fitness trackers and nutrition apps Consumer Health & Wellness Diagnostics Imaging Pathology Providers Telemedicine & virtual visits (primary and specialty care) Electronic medical record systems Clinical decision support Pharma Digital Therapeutics Supply chain R&D (real world evidence & clinical trial support) Consumer-focused care & coverage Insurance & Benefits Genomics DNA genetic testing Early cancer detection

What is a Digital Therapeutic? What is a Digital Therapeutic? • • Digital therapeutics utilize software or applications to treat a disease, and may also include ancillary components such as connected hardware device(s), adjunctive pharmacotherapy, or live clinical support, but the software component could still drive meaningful outcomes as an independent contributor to treatment In contrast to traditional pharmacological therapeutics, digital therapeutics typically have shorter development and commercialization timelines, smaller investments and may not require FDA approval How is a DTx used with pharmacological interventions? • • Monotherapy or Standalone: Software or application only Combination Products: • • • Companion: Usually not FDA-approved; can be used to treat a condition alongside pharmacological product and/or HCP treatment Combination: application or sensor that is designed to be used in conjunction with a specific pharmacological product (e.g. type of insulin) Adjunct: application or sensor that is designed to be used with a pharmacological intervention (e.g. all types of insulin) or HCP treatment What therapeutic areas are most relevant for digital therapeutics? • CNS: Digital therapeutics have demonstrated the potential to favorably impact areas within CNS in two main areas: • • Behavioral-mediated indications, such as Depression, Anxiety, Insomnia, Panic Attacks Indications where neural stimulation can be utilized to impact changes to the brain: ADHD, Parkinson’s and Stroke Recovery • Disease management for chronic indications with significant behavioral, lifestyle and drug compliance requirements within the treatment paradigm; such as: diabetes, asthma and COPD, and other cardiometabolic conditions

15 There is a Wide Continuum of Digital Therapeutics We stratify the market by two key factors: level of clinical evidence and approach to commercialization. Biopharma is most likely to focus on the products that may augment or work in concert with current pharmaceutical therapies (1) Companies with products approved by the FDA or conducting clinical trials with the intention of seeking FDA approval Sources: Company Websites and CB Insights DTC Rx FDA approved Claims (1) Level of clinical evidence While an Rx is not required (not FDA approved), these products may have clinical data, help manage a disease or optimize medication; often provided by health plans & systems, employers or directly to patients Initially the strongest alignment with biopharma; pursing FDA approval to treat specific indications Largely address general health and wellness as opposed to specific indications OTC Primary Commercialization Approach

21 The optimal business model(s) to scale and commercialize a digital therapeutic successfully is still being determined. There are multiple methodologies currently being deployed, each with its own advantages and challenges. Given how nascent the use of a digital therapeutic is; it will likely be several years before it will be clear which business model(s) will bear fruit Pharma companies are still evaluating how to best operationalize a digital therapy, whether it is in combination with a pharmacological treatment or building out a separate digital commercialization unit Business Model For Digital Therapeutics Commercialization The optimal path to commercialization is still being determined Device-like reimbursement Dedicated CPT or HCPCS codes will facilitate reimbursement Requires FDA approval Path from FDA approval to reimbursement is still undefined
Slide 22-

22 Outlook for Reimbursement Given the nascency of commercialized digital therapeutic products, there is not a well-established framework to establish pricing and reimbursement for new products Since there is a broad range of digital therapeutic products, it is unlikely there will be a singular or formulaic approach to securing reimbursement akin to traditional pharmacological interventions Despite the lack of history with digital therapies, payers are highly receptive to digital therapies because the may offer the following key benefits: Favorable safety profile, Potential to drive health economic benefits, such as decreased HCP visits, Increased patient access to care, and Help manage chronic conditions that carry significant cost burdens. REIMBURSEMENT CASE STUDY Successfully contracted with the full continuum of the payer universe: National PBMs: CVS and Express Scripts Health Plans: BCBS Michigan, HCSC CMS: Approved as an enrolled provider Channel Partners: Mercer, Willis Towers Watson $1,908 per participant per year gross medical savings in diabetes Source: Livongo website

24 Digital Health is regulated by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (“CDRH”) Many products follow a traditional medical device regulator pathway: 510(K) for devices that have a predicate device. Examples: WellDoc, Voluntis and Palo Alto Health Sciences De Novo for novel devices CDRH has established the Digital Health Innovation Action Plan (“DHIAP”) which outlines the pathway for approval for new digital health products In 2017 the CDRH launched the a pilot program known as the Digital Health Software Precertification (“Pre- Cert”) program in an effort do establish a new regulatory framework for digital health Program is for products that develop software-as-as-medical device (“SaMD”) Focused on the technology developer, and then the specific product July 2019: Pear Therapeutics submitted the first application for FDA marketing authorization through the pre- cert program for Somryst, a digital cognitive behavioral therapy for the treatment of adults with chronic insomnia and depression Source: FDA website, Canaccord equity research FDA Approval Pathway The FDA actively supports the approval of prescription digital therapies

Key Trends and Observations 25
Slide 26-

Top 10 Observations and Trends in Digital Therapeutics We went straight to the “horse’s mouth” and sought the opinion of key industry leaders We identified 10 key trends and observations as a result of our research and interviews with over a dozen senior executives in the digital therapeutics sector, ranging from: Senior executives of digital therapeutics companies Investors supporting these companies Senior executives at leading pharmaceutical companies We stratified the observations and trends into four categories: Overall Impact to biopharma Impact to patients Impact to payers, providers and health systems 26
Slide 27-

27 Top 10 Observations and Trends in Digital Therapeutics Overall 1) BioCentury Two thirds of the top 25 biopharma companies are developing digital programs in-house and over half have invested in outside digital programs1 2 Recent deals between digital therapeutics and biopharma demonstrate potential value of digital medicines 3 New modality of therapy with the potential to drive true therapeutic outcomes, deliver insight, optimize therapies and lower costs to the healthcare system 1 Data and insights can drive value and efficiencies across all of biopharma, from R&D through commercialization 4
Slide 28-

28 Recent Observations and Trends in Digital Therapeutics (continued) Overall “Hundreds of millions are being invested into the space, but we are just scratching the surface. Pharma and others will invest billions once we see significant commercial traction. Digital therapeutics are already creating real impact now and will continue to become mainstream. Companies that embrace digital will succeed and first movers will be well positioned to control markets. For example, a properly launched program to treat migraine can meaningfully impact the pharma landscape .” David Benshoof Klein, CEO, Click Therapeutics “All of pharma is curious. There is definitely a sense of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and hence you are seeing different strategic initiatives across the companies. Some are actively embracing across the organizations. Others are more limited initiatives confined to corporate VC investments. For investors, the headline exits are not there yet as business models are still being evaluated. There is a lot of trial and error and it may take 5 – 10 years for the field to work out issues on the clinical, commercial and reimbursement side of things. We are cautiously optimistic that they will get there.” Aidan King, Managing Partner and Co-Founder, Fountain Health Partners “Large pharma should be investing in DTx; while I believe it will generate outsized returns, even if you disagree, it will be important to get a look at the tech, data and changing business models, it is another tool to improve patient outcomes and the data from DTx could drive marketing, patient journey maps, and when/how to treat patients in the disease progression” Owen McCarthy, President and Founder, MedRhythms “AI and machine learning are very exciting; as the patient uses the product, it will customize the treatment, collecting data that can be used for the patient and for future product development” Debra Reisenthel, Founding President and CEO, Palo Alto Health Sciences “In 5 years, there will be at least half a dozen patient-facing DTx companies worth $1B+, we'll see a shift toward telemedicine, and CVS/Walmart will provide primary care physician services. In 10 years, virtually all clinical trials will include a digital tracking and data collection component, and many, if not most, will measure a digital biomarker.” Antoun Nabhan , VP Corporate Development, Pear Therapeutics “Data collection from using digital therapy and community apps: [will] help identify new patients for therapies, help treat patients and manage their conditions, provide disease specific communities to get support, advice and care, and educate patients about therapeutic options.” Chris Wasden, Head of DTx, Happify
Slide 29-

“We are at a point where all of the major stakeholders are excited about novel technologies and Digital Therapeutics. There are a variety of models for how Digital Therapeutics work within the healthcare system, but, just like with pharmacologic interventions and medical devices, it’s best to adopt an existing model than to try to disrupt a very rigid set of processes. We are at a very exciting point in time though where this wave has started, and it will continue to build. I believe that in 4-5 years, it will be common to be prescribed a DTx”. Andy Molnar, VP Commercialization, Cognoa “Once we have a large enough data set, digital therapies can then change by adapting their algorithms and be able to become a personalized medicine. Lots of potential for DTx to be used early on in a disease as a monotherapy; perhaps later stage it would be used either as a monotherapy or in combo with a Rx; the sum of the parts could be greater than individual therapies and throughout be used as a diagnostic “ Owen McCarthy, President and Founder, MedRhythms “Positive on combination products, [DTx] delivery model can increase efficiencies, boost patient engagement and improve gross margins…[will become] part of the treatment ecosystem. I think the hard part is finding the right economics for adjunct digital therapeutics; in the near-term it may be better to bundle or attach to another reimbursement schema for more or less free, but get upside from continuing maintenance of therapy” Zach Gonzales, Vice President, Norwest Venture Partners Recent Observations and Trends in Digital Therapeutics (continued) Biopharma Digital therapeutics function as both a monotherapy as well as in concert (as a companion, adjunct or combination) with traditional pharmacological inventions 6 More efficient product development, including higher PTRS, lower costs and shorter development timelines for new therapies 5 29

“So much of our overall health is driven by behavioral or mental health, and yet we've had this artificial dichotomy between mental and physical health. This is going away as there is increasing appreciation that they are in fact linked, and our mental health is a critical factor for our overall health. Digital therapeutics have greater ability to impact our mental health." Aaron Gani, Founder and CEO, BehaVR “In many therapeutic categories, such as autism and stroke, patients are lost in a complex system from diagnosis through treatment, which is often times, both frustrating and frightening. Digital Therapeutics offer the potential to fill that gap by streamlining the entire patient journey. By creating a new standard of care, we will ensure that patients understand their options and receive the care they need when they need it most.” Andy Molnar, VP Commercialization, Cognoa “Allows patients to access their data and manage their own care…becoming an increasingly consumer-driven healthcare marketplace ” Debra Reisenthel, Founding President and CEO, Palo Alto Health Sciences Recent Observations and Trends in Digital Therapeutics (continued) Patients Digital therapeutics combines technology and evidence-based medicine to deliver personalized patient care 8 “Healthcare at your fingertips”: DTx allows patients to access care on-demand 7 30
Slide 31-

“We're particularly excited about the power of VR in DTx in particular for behavioral health, because of the incredibly powerful neurological effects VR offers.. Behavioral health is a significant problem with huge unmet needs, there is an acute provider shortage, and still stigma around getting help; [DTx enables] more scalable, more cost effective and better access to care for patients” Aaron Gani, Founder and CEO, BehaVR ”Ideally using preventive measures and catching people earlier in their symptoms. Catch people before they develop major systems will truly impact value-based care…, be preventive rather than prescriptive…goal is the keep people healthy instead of solving health problems.” Shubh Anand, Analyst, City Light Capital “Payers could eventually require this as a step-edit over a schedule 4 IV drug for insomnia…the challenge is overcoming the stigma that these programs will not be reimbursed at good prices. We are designing trials along with payers, who see the value in facilitating more effective care to patients at a lower cost.“ David Benshoof Klein, CEO, Click Therapeutics “The mindset to treat disease has changed tremendously in the last 20 years. From patients to payers, we have seen a philosophical shift from treating issues after they occur to preventative medicines. Digital Therapeutics can help identify and treat diseases, but they can also be a first line to prevent chronic conditions from occurring or worsening. Additionally, as we see patients owning their own healthcare, Digital Therapeutics empower them to care for themselves and their loved ones, and enhance traditional therapies for better outcomes” Andy Molnar, VP Commercialization, Cognoa “DTx challenges in the near term: prove reimbursement, convince payers of the HEOR improvements, and find pricing structures that align payment incentives across stakeholder's: The HCP, payer, and therapeutic developer / pharma co.” Antoun Nabhan , VP Corporate Development, Pear Therapeutics 31 Recent Observations and Trends in Digital Therapeutics (continued) Payers, Providers & Health Systems Digital medicines service delivery model promotes the evolution of value-based care 9 Digital therapeutics offer compelling safety profile and may become the new first-line treatment for selected indications 10

Conclusion 32
Slide 33-

Long Term Outlook: Digital Likely to be Incorporated into Every Facet of the Patient Journey 33 Digital will not be just an ancillary part of biopharma, but highly likely to be an integral modality to biopharma While we do not believe that digital therapies will replace traditional pharmaceutical products, i.e. a digital app will not replacing PCSK9 inhibitors, insulin, statins or PD1-inhibitors, but they will be incorporated into every facet of the patient journey We do believe that digital will be incorporated into the treatment paradigm as follows: As a diagnostic tool Potential first-line therapy of treatment for selected indications Companion, adjunct or in combination with pharmacological product Possibilities that we have not even identified, yet As the use of digital within the biopharma sphere is still in its infancy, we have yet to even scratch the surface on the potential for how data and analytics can impact the sector, from drug development, to patient identification and stratification, to using real-world evidence to inform physician recommendations Biopharma companies investing now may reap the words of a first mover advantage into this modality Lastly, as the US healthcare system evolves to a value-based care model, digital is a natural partner to enable efficiencies and cost savings
Slide 34-

34 The Near Term Outlook While there are still several major challenges for the adoption of digital therapies, there is significant momentum at the moment and we expect it to accelerate Headwinds Tailwinds  Digital therapeutic products have demonstrated clinically meaningful outcomes  Potential for patients to access therapy on-demand  Potential for shorter development timelines with higher PTRS and lower costs than traditional pharmacological interventions  FDA is supportive of digital therapeutics  Digital therapies present favorable pharmacoeconomics, which align with healthcare’s overall shift towards value-based care  Digital therapies combine technology and evidence-based medicine to deliver personalized patient care  Early Biopharma adopters may have a first mover advantage Optimal pathway(s) to scale and commercialize still unchartered Can be challenging to secure reimbursement by payers and healthcare systems IP and product protection yet to be fully vetted and tested Limited digital therapeutic company exits via M&A Recent dissolution of multiple digital-biopharma partnerships and lack of commercial uptake for recent digital therapy product launches
