This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” as defined under the
federal securities laws. Actual results could vary materially. Factors that could
cause actual results to vary materially are described in our filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
You should pay particular attention to the “risk factors” contained in documents we
file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The risks
identified therein, as well as others not identified by the Company, could cause the
Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-
looking statements.

"If the potential of stem cell research is realized, it would mean an end to the suffering of
millions of people. If stem cell research succeeds, there isn’t a person in the country who
won’t benefit, or know somebody who will."
Michael J. Fox
“[Stem cell research] is the most promising research in healthcare perhaps in this history of the
world and we should not be left behind in this research.”
Senator Orin Hatch, (R-Utah)
“Science has presented us with a hope called stem-cell research, which may provide our
scientists with answers that have so long been beyond our grasp.”
Nancy Reagan
“This is not a matter of using a human embryo that has the potential to produce life. Rather,
these otherwise discarded embryos have the potential to save lives.”
Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA)

Solving Immune Rejection and the Ethical DebateSolving Immune Rejection and the Ethical Debate
Two Significant Challenges to Regenerative Medicine Today
Solving Rejection of Cell Therapies by a Patient’s Immune System
Addressing the Ethical Debate Surrounding the Derivation of Human
ES Cell
ACT Uses Proprietary Cellular Reprogramming to Address Both
Challenges
24
Chronic Diseases or Indications Requiring Custom Therapy
Today - Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (“SCNT”)
Tomorrow – Transdifferentiation
Result - a custom-tailored, patient-specific cell therapy for patient
Acute Injuries or Indications Requiring Immediate Therapy
Tomorrow – Our Reduced Complexity Library (“RCL”)
Result – cell therapies for the immediate treatment of acute injuries which will
provide a close match for most patients

  • 13. 13 The Next Frontier in MedicineThe Next Frontier in Medicine "If the potential of stem cell research is realized, it would mean an end to the suffering of millions of people. If stem cell research succeeds, there isn’t a person in the country who won’t benefit, or know somebody who will." Michael J. Fox “[Stem cell research] is the most promising research in healthcare perhaps in this history of the world and we should not be left behind in this research.” Senator Orin Hatch, (R-Utah) “Science has presented us with a hope called stem-cell research, which may provide our scientists with answers that have so long been beyond our grasp.” Nancy Reagan “This is not a matter of using a human embryo that has the potential to produce life. Rather, these otherwise discarded embryos have the potential to save lives.” Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA)
