Rationale for NMDA Receptor Antagonist to Treat Tinnitus Normal Damage → Tinnitus Tinnitus Treatment Hair Cell Excessive Glutamate Glutamate Release Gacyclidine SGNs Over- Excitation During normal hearing, hair cells release Cochlear injury (e.g., from noise or trauma) Inhibition of over-excited SGNs glutamate to activate NMDA receptors on can produce excessive glutamate release with a selective NMDA receptor spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) to relay and over-activation of the NMDA receptor antagonist can reduce tinnitus sound information to the brain sub-type leading to tinnitus 14
OTO-313 Has Attractive Profile for Tinnitus Treatment Pilot Clinical Study Demonstrated • OTO-313 is sustained-exposure formulation Dose-Dependent Improvement in of gacyclidine – weeks of exposure from TINNITUS HANDICAP INVENTORY (THI) single IT injection • Gacyclidine is a potent and selective NMDA receptor antagonist • Preclinical data shows inhibition of Improved spontaneous neuronal activity in SGNs and POC in tinnitus model • Effect of gacyclidine on tinnitus demonstrated in pilot clinical study In open-label Phase 1 study conducted by NeuroSystec, gacyclidine was infused into the cochlea for 48 hours 15
Patient Enrollment Completed for OTO-313 Phase 1/2 Trial Randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled safety and exploratory efficacy study of OTO-313 given as a single intratympanic injection in subjects with tinnitus • Successfully completed initial patient cohort for safety and tolerability assessment • 35 patients with unilateral, persistent tinnitus of cochlear origin enrolled in exploratory efficacy cohort • Inclusion required that patient’s tinnitus severity exceeded specified level • Randomized 1:1 for single intratympanic injection of OTO-313 or placebo Cohort 1 (n = 8) Screening 4 Week Follow-up (Completed) Cohort 2 Screening & Lead-in 8 Week Follow-up (n = 35) 16
Exploratory Efficacy Endpoints in Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial • Tinnitus Functional Index (TFI): o Validated clinical instrument that assesses tinnitus severity and functional impact on patient o Can be used to measure treatment-related changes o Switched to completion by patient at-home • Tinnitus Loudness Rating Scale (via phone diary) • Tinnitus Annoyance Rating Scale (via phone diary) • Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) 17

Hearing Loss is a Large and Growing Problem Worldwide Hearing Loss is 4th Leading Cause of Disability Globally1 Most prevalent neurologic health issue: NO EFFECTIVE > 360M PEOPLE TREATMENTS have disabling hearing loss2 and no approved drugs for hearing loss Common causes include: Leads to Social Isolation, lower QOL, AGING, NOISE, AND HIGHER High economic burden: OTOTOXIC RATES OF MEDICAL COSTS DRUGS AND DEMENTIA AND + IMPACT GENETICS DEPRESSION of lower work productivity 1Wilson, et al. Lancet. (2017); 2World Health Organization, Global Estimates on Prevalence of Hearing Loss, (2012) 19
Addressing Multiple Hearing Loss Pathologies Damage to cochlea hair cells due to Recent research has identified damage to noise, aging, or exposure to ototoxic synaptic connections as an underlying pathology chemicals results in hearing loss in noise and age-related hearing loss that detectable in standard hearing test manifests as speech-in-noise hearing difficulty Intact synapses (called puncta) shown as colored dots 3 rows of outer and 1 row of inner hair cells Hearing Loss 1) Repair damaged synaptic connections (OTO-413) Pathologies 2) Repair or regenerate cochlear hair cells (OTO-6XX) Targeted by 3) Protect inner ear from ototoxic chemicals (OTO-510) Otonomy 4) Congenital hearing loss (GJB2 collaboration with AGTC) Figure from Moser and Starr, Nature Reviews: Neurology (2016) 20

Mutations in the Gap Junction Beta-2 (GJB2) gene are the most common cause of congenital hearing loss • In developed countries, about 1 out of 500 children are born with or develop hearing loss prior to language development (”prelingual”) • Genetic mutations are the most common cause of prelingual hearing loss • GJB2 accounts for ~30% of congenital hearing loss cases • Patients with GJB2 mutations often have severe-to-profound hearing loss in both ears • Typically identified by newborn screening that is routine in US and EU Reference: Shearer et al, “Hereditary Hearing Loss and Deafness Overview” (2017) 28
GJB2 gene encodes gap junction protein Connexin 26 that is involved in ion channel homeostasis • Connexin 26 is expressed in non-sensory cell types within the cochlea • Mutations in GJB2 gene impair gap junctions that control potassium homeostasis leading to hair cell dysfunction and hearing loss • Goal: otic delivery of GJB2 therapy to achieve high local concentration of gene (low systemic exposure) to restore functional gap junctions and hearing Connexin 26 expression Fibrocytes Spiral limbus Support cells Figure reference: Korver et al, Nature Reviews Disease Primers (2017) 29 29
