5 Building a pipeline of innovative therapies focused on neuropsychiatric disorders Foundational Platform: Pioneering the potentially first-in-class option for anesthetic-based therapy • Lead indication: potential to be an improved therapy for 3M patients with Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) in the US with high unmet need and few treatment options • Developing a proprietary, tech-enabled, personalized delivery system using biofeedback to potentially optimize treatment • Known mode of action with three POC clinical trials supporting use of specific common anesthetics in TRD • Leveraging the same PACU* setting and HCPs** while potentially overcoming limitations with existing treatments • Rapid path to clinical POC: Phase 2-ready product, expect to initiate trial next year • Key Intellectual Property (IP) secured from MIT Additional Indications: Potential for expansion into other neuropsychiatric diseases Additional Therapies: Core platform with optionality to add pipeline-enhancing, strategically relevant therapies Leveraging legacy assets: for potential non-dilutive capital to drive pipeline development Praliciguat – Licensed for kidney disease Olinciguat - Exclusive option 10% equity 1 ownership Up to $560M in future milestones + royalties agreement for cardiovascular diseases *Post Anesthesia Care Unit ** Health Care Providers

11 11 Compelling Clinical Precedent for such use of anesthetics for TRD Three early-phase clinical studies support propofol’s potential as a rapid-acting antidepressant in TRD Anesthesiologist-controlled open loop dosing Propofol showed consistent signals of efficacy with favorable safety profiles was central to all propofol studies: • Rapid onset of antidepressant effect seen • Burst suppression (RCT* + Pilot) or slow-wave sleep (SWS) optimization (SWIPED**) within 1-2 weeks • Propofol titrated using EEG metrics • Durable benefit lasting 3–6 months (e.g., suppression ratio, SWS density) • No major safety signals *Randomized Control Trial **DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2024-087516
