Advancing precision therapeutics aimed at solving long -standing challenges in neuromedicine Drugs interact with receptors that are ubiquitous in the brain and body Drugs not designed with precision for disease-specific neuroanatomic sites / receptors Drug interactions and adverse events lead to noncompliance and discontinuation Drug discovery with conventional approaches (lacking RAPs) can miss high potential, previously unexplored targets RAPs are components of the broader neuronal receptor complexes and play critical roles in regulating receptor assembly and function RAPs serve as unique binding sites targetable by novel pharmacophores designed for increased selectivity, providing neuroanatomical specificity RAPs can enable differentiated pharmacology and potentially provide favorable efficacy, safety, and administration profiles RAPs can “unlock” drug targets previously inaccessible to study in vitro, allowing for potentially first-in-class drug discovery programs Conventional CNS Drug Discovery The Potential of RAPs 5

Use of RAPs enables targeting of diverse nicotinic receptors RAP-641 – α6β4 nAChR Expressed selectively in sensory neurons position it as a genetically-validated precision non-opiate non-CNS target for pain and migraine α9α10 nAChR Expressed selectively in auditory and vestibular and hair cells position it as a genetically- validated precision target for hearing and vestibular disorders 40 Preclinical and Clinical Evidence Uncovered α6 as Critical Nicotinic Receptor Subunit Governing Pain Limitations of Standard of Care • Pan nAChR agonists are clinically validated in pain • A broad-spectrum nicotinic agonist (ABT-594a) a was effective in a Phase 2 diabetic neuropathic pain trial – tolerability prevented further development • Studies identified α6β4 as the nAChR subtype that mediates nicotine and ABT-594 analgesia – a drug specific for this sensory neuron target should be better tolerated than previous nAChR approaches • Rapport’s platform unlocked the α6β4 target and enabled us to create potent and selective first in class α6β4 agonist compounds • RAP-641, Rapport’s α6β4 agonist candidate, showed robust efficacy in translatable models of pain and migraine • IND-enabling activities are currently underway aABT-594: a non-selective neuronal nAChR agonist developed by Abbott with robust efficacy in preclinical pain models and a Ph2 trial of diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain
