Company Overview
• Corporate headquarters in Gainesville, FL
• Founded in 1990 as a cyclodextrin-distribution company
• Game changer: Dr. Benny Liu showed in 2006 that one version of cyclodextrins, hydroxypropyl beta
cyclodextrins, can release cholesterol from cells in animal models of Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (NPC).
NPC is a rare inherited neurodegenerative disease that affects infants, children and adults. It is caused by
an accumulation of lipids in the liver, brain and spleen.
• This discovery led directly to CTD providing cyclodextrins to NPC families for use in compassionate
programs. Dr. Hastings was first to administer our product to NPC patients, route of administration was
Intravenous.
• This led directly to ground-breaking work of other physicians in the US, Brazil and other countries, then
ultimately to our decision to develop our version of hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrin, Trappsol® Cyclo™, as
a treatment for Niemann-Pick Disease Type C.
3
Cyclo Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biotechnology company, is developing
cyclodextrin-based products for the treatment of diseases with unmet
medical need
• Phase II in Europe/Israel and Phase I in U.S. - recruiting, dosing in Niemann
Pick Disease Type C (NPC)
• NPC and AD, Compassionate Use Program ongoing in multiple countries
• Granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration and European Medicines Agency; Rare Pediatric Disease
Designation (U.S.) and Fast Track designation (U.S.)
• Alzheimer's Disease moving towards Phase I
• NPC represents significant $500mm+ annual addressable market
• Alzheimer’s Disease $1 Billion+ Opportunity
Approximately $10 million invested by insiders
• Recently closed $7.4M institutional equity financing.
• Cyclodextrins are modifiable for multiple therapeutic areas
• Company is leader in Intravenous use of cyclodextrins
• ODD gives market exclusivity for 7- 12 years
• The company holds trademark, copyright and trade secret intellectual
property around the Trappsol® Cyclo™ product.

Niemann-Pick Disease Type C:
Overview
6
An autosomal recessive lysosomal
storage disease
1/80,000 - 1/120,000
Live Birth Incidences
The disease is associated
with accumulation of
cholesterol in late
endosomes and
lysosomes due to loss of
normal function of the
NPC protein (NPC1 in
95% of cases, NPC2 in
5% of cases).
NPC damage can be
found in the brain, liver,
and other body tissues.
Depending on severity of
the disease, cognitive
impairment, movement
disorders, swallowing,
lung, liver and other
normal functions are
affected.
NPC is highly variable,
presenting usually in
young children, who often
do not survive into
adulthood, and also has a
later onset presentation
which leads to longer
term disability. The
disease is difficult to
diagnose and, therefore,
under-diagnosed.

Initial Data from U.S. and E.U./Israel trials
• Safety data show positive profile.
• Trappsol® Cyclo™ releases cholesterol from cells of NPC patients, allowing for cells
to normalize.
• Trappsol® Cyclo™ crosses the blood-brain-barrier following IV administration.
• One marker for NPC disease severity, lysosphingomyelin-509, shows a downward
trend with successive administration of IV Trappsol® Cyclo™. Another biomarker of
neurodegeneration, tau, trends downward in the cerebrospinal fluid. This tells us
that as Trappsol ® Cyclo™ clears cholesterol from cells, there are downstream
effects on markers of NPC disease severity.
• Clinical efficacy data are limited but encouraging. Disease specific features,
including fine motor, gait, and cognition improve in some subjects. Most patients for
which data are available either stabilized or improved in disease specific features.
11
Milestones – Niemann Pick trials
• Phase I trial – completing enrollment
• Phase I/II trial – completing enrollment
• Unblind dosing data from US and Europe/Israel NPC trials and correlate
biochemical and morphological changes with clinical outcomes. Timing under
discussion with regulators.
• Design of global pivotal trial -- Underway
• Meetings with Regulators to discuss pathway to approval – Upcoming
12
NPC and Alzheimer’s Disease share common features:
• Neurofibrillary tangles, tau, amyloid beta plaques in brains of NPC and AD patients
• Hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for AD
• Lysosomal dysfunction found in both NPC and AD
• Increased cellular cholesterol increases the association of an enzyme, secretase, with
the precursor protein to amyloid beta (APP), leading to increased levels of amyloid beta
Cell and Animal models for AD studies using HPBCDs show:
• HPBCDs added to cells that over-express the precursor protein APP lowers amyloid beta
• HPBCDs given subcutaneously to a mouse that over-expresses APP:
• reduces amyloid beta by reducing cleavage of APP;
• improves memory as shown in a standard water maze test;
• reduces microgliosis;
• up-regulates genes involved in cholesterol transport and amyloid beta clearance
(as well as NPC1)

In a set of patients for which CTD has years of data, IV Trappsol® Cyclo™ either stabilizes NPC disease
(lowermost line and upper right lines) or is associated with clinical improvements, as exhibited by lowering of
NPC Severity Scores following IV Trappsol® Cyclo™ administration over time. Note: all patients added
intrathecal administration to IV within 1 year to 2 years, with limited additional benefit observed.

Serious Adverse Events (SAE’s) -- 9 events reported in 2 subjects
SAE: Intermittent seizures requiring hospitalisation. This was discussed and considered as not related to study
treatment but down to non-compliance with their normal anti-epileptic medication. The subject was withdrawn
from the study by family despite positive improvements in their disease
SAE: Hospitalised intermittently for general healthy deterioration, aspiration pneumonia and non-study medication
overdose. This subject was also withdrawn, by the physician, due to missed dosing and the deterioration in their
general condition.
Hearing Related Adverse Events
2 events reported in 1 subject
An initial tinnitus was reported and documented at the patients Week 2 Study Visit. The event was self-limiting,
lasting only48 hours and resolved. At the Week 24 Study Visit, routine audiometry was performed and a reduction
of hearing at higher frequencies was noted. However, with no natural history data in this patient population with
regards to hearing, and the examination being performed at frequencies outside of the protocol defined range,
interpreting this was difficult and continues to be monitored.

NPC Clinical Severity Score
• Widely used tool in clinical research community starting in 2010
• Based on 9 major domains, or features of NPC disease: eye movement,
ambulation, speech, swallow, fine motor skills, cognition, hearing, memory, and
seizures.
• And 8 modifying domains: Gelastic cataplexy, narcolepsy, behavior, psychiatric,
hyperreflexia, incontinence, auditory brainstem response, and respiratory.
• Each major domain is scored 0 – 5, modifying domains 0 – 2 with 0 being normal
or no history of the disease manifestation. Most severe patients are scored 61 with
this tool.
40
• For patient 1 (yellow): The improvement in total score of 3 points (compared with baseline ) is due to
reductions in severity in the eye movement (1 to 0), fine motor skills (2 to 1) and psychiatric modifier (1
to 0). For patient 2 (green): The improvement in total score (compared with baseline) is due to
reductions in severity in eye movement (1 to 0), cognition (5 to 3), gelastic cataplexy (2 to 1) and
incontinence (1 to 0). However, ambulation worsened (1 to 2) as did speech (3 to 4). Total score
change reflects an improvement of 3 points. N=2

NPC Clinical Severity Scores Europe
Physician Overview – US Study
Following completion of the 14 week/7 dose treatment protocol:
4 of 6 patients report increased alertness, focus, enhanced communication and
speech fluency.
3 of 6 patients note increased strength and motivation leading to increase in
movement or ambulation.
2 patients remain clinically stable.
1 patient was withdrawn from the trial due to hypersensitivity.
Global Impression of Disease scores, standardized tool, to be analyzed.

Clinical Efficacy Summary
Europe/Israel and US
• Initial clinical efficacy findings are encouraging.
• From the EU/Israel trial, both patients out of the initial four who completed the 48
week trial improved overall NPC Clinical Severity Score by 3 points, each in
different ways. Disease specific features, including fine motor, cognition,
incontinence and eye movements, improved.
• From the US trial, most patients who have completed the trial so far have
remained stable or improved in specific features of the disease.

  • 3. Company Overview • Corporate headquarters in Gainesville, FL • Founded in 1990 as a cyclodextrin-distribution company • Game changer: Dr. Benny Liu showed in 2006 that one version of cyclodextrins, hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrins, can release cholesterol from cells in animal models of Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (NPC). NPC is a rare inherited neurodegenerative disease that affects infants, children and adults. It is caused by an accumulation of lipids in the liver, brain and spleen. • This discovery led directly to CTD providing cyclodextrins to NPC families for use in compassionate programs. Dr. Hastings was first to administer our product to NPC patients, route of administration was Intravenous. • This led directly to ground-breaking work of other physicians in the US, Brazil and other countries, then ultimately to our decision to develop our version of hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrin, Trappsol® Cyclo™, as a treatment for Niemann-Pick Disease Type C. 3 Cyclo Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biotechnology company, is developing cyclodextrin-based products for the treatment of diseases with unmet medical need
  • 4. • Phase II in Europe/Israel and Phase I in U.S. - recruiting, dosing in Niemann Pick Disease Type C (NPC) • NPC and AD, Compassionate Use Program ongoing in multiple countries • Granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and European Medicines Agency; Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (U.S.) and Fast Track designation (U.S.) • Alzheimer's Disease moving towards Phase I • NPC represents significant $500mm+ annual addressable market • Alzheimer’s Disease $1 Billion+ Opportunity Approximately $10 million invested by insiders • Recently closed $7.4M institutional equity financing. • Cyclodextrins are modifiable for multiple therapeutic areas • Company is leader in Intravenous use of cyclodextrins • ODD gives market exclusivity for 7- 12 years • The company holds trademark, copyright and trade secret intellectual property around the Trappsol® Cyclo™ product. Investment Highlights Trappsol® Cyclo™ Active clinical programs in Niemann Pick Disease and Alzheimer's Disease Large Market Opportunity Strong Management Team & Board Robust Cyclodextrin Portfolio & IP 4 Strong Balance Sheet
  • 5. Trappsol® Cyclo™ • Trappsol ® Cyclo ™ is CTD’s proprietary formulation of hydroxypropyl betacyclodextrin. • HPβCD = 7 glucose molecules in a ring, modified by adding propyl groups, to enhance solubility. The inner core of HPBCDs can make complexes with cholesterol and other molecules. • HPβCDs widely used as excipient in products including Sporanox (broad-spectrum anti-fungal), eye drops, and mouthwash. 5 Figure is courtesy of David Begley, Kings College This schematic represents interaction of cylinder shaped cyclodextrins and cholesterol in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio β-Cyclodextrin, R=H HPβCD, R=OCH2CH(CH3)OH or H
  • 6. Niemann-Pick Disease Type C: Overview 6 An autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease 1/80,000 - 1/120,000 Live Birth Incidences The disease is associated with accumulation of cholesterol in late endosomes and lysosomes due to loss of normal function of the NPC protein (NPC1 in 95% of cases, NPC2 in 5% of cases). NPC damage can be found in the brain, liver, and other body tissues. Depending on severity of the disease, cognitive impairment, movement disorders, swallowing, lung, liver and other normal functions are affected. NPC is highly variable, presenting usually in young children, who often do not survive into adulthood, and also has a later onset presentation which leads to longer term disability. The disease is difficult to diagnose and, therefore, under-diagnosed.

Feb 4, 2016, • Addressable market approaching $500mm • Diagnosis capacity is improving – numbers of patients seeking treatment will increase
  • 8. Compassionate Use Program with Intravenous Trappsol® Cyclo™ 8 Clinical data have allowed treating physicians to continue to use HP-β-CD compassionately for more than 10 years in some cases. IV Trappsol® Cyclo™ has been administered to > 20 NPC patients worldwide Individual patients exhibit objective Systemic/CNS responses • Favorable tolerability profile among patients treated to date. • Safety profile has enabled physicians to continue treatment > 6 years. • Reduction in hepatic volume and improvement in transaminases. • Restoration of language skills. • Resolution of interstitial lung disease. • Improvement in fine and gross motor skills. • Improvement in quality of life.
  • 9. Trappsol® Cyclo™ Phase I Study to Evaluate Safety and Impact On Biomarkers of NPC Disease • Niemann-Pick Disease Type C - Confirmed diagnosis of NPC – 1 - NIH NPC Severity Score <30 and with no more then 4 individual domains with a score of > 3 - Age range: 18 years upwards • Total Sites: 2 in United States - Emmes is supporting the study with site management and monitoring - UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland, CA; and, Morristown Medical Center, Morristown, NJ • Trial Timeline - First patient enrollment: Q’3 17 - First patient dosed Q’3 17 9 United States Randomization 6:6 Between Dose Groups Trappsol® Cyclo™: Bi-weekly 8 hour intravenous treatment for a period of 14 weeks RANDOMIZE (N=12) Dose Group 1 1500 mg/kg Dose Group 2 2500 mg/kg Primary Endpoint • Plasma levels of Trappsol® Cyclo™ Secondary Endpoint • Markers of Cholesterol metabolism/synthesis • CSF Levels of Trappsol® Cyclo™ • hepatic and splenic morphology • global impression of disease Exploratory Endpoint • CSF biomarkers of NPC Disease
  • 10. Trappsol® Cyclo™ Phase I/II Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy 10 Europe Randomization 4:4:4 Between Dose Groups Trappsol® Cyclo™: Bi-weekly 8 hour intravenous treatment for a period of 48 weeks RANDOMIZE (N=12) Dose Group 2 2000 mg/kg Dose Group 1 1500 mg/kg Dose Group 3 2500 mg/kg Primary Endpoint • Plasma levels of Trappsol® Cyclo™ Secondary Endpoint • Markers of Cholesterol metabolism/synthesis • CSF Levels of Trappsol® Cyclo™ • Clinical Outcomes (motor Skills, cognition, eye movements, liver morphology et al) • global impression of disease Exploratory Endpoint • CSF biomarkers of NPC Disease • Niemann-Pick Disease Type C - Confirmed diagnosis of NPC – 1 - NIH NPC Severity Score <30 and with no more then 4 individual domains with a score of > 3 - Age range: 2 years upwards • Total Sites: 5-6 in 4 Countries - UK, Sweden, Italy, Israel - Aptus/Synteract is supporting the trial with site management and monitoring • Trial Timeline - First patient enrollment: Q’2 17 - First patient dosed Q’3 17
  • 11. Initial Data from U.S. and E.U./Israel trials • Safety data show positive profile. • Trappsol® Cyclo™ releases cholesterol from cells of NPC patients, allowing for cells to normalize. • Trappsol® Cyclo™ crosses the blood-brain-barrier following IV administration. • One marker for NPC disease severity, lysosphingomyelin-509, shows a downward trend with successive administration of IV Trappsol® Cyclo™. Another biomarker of neurodegeneration, tau, trends downward in the cerebrospinal fluid. This tells us that as Trappsol ® Cyclo™ clears cholesterol from cells, there are downstream effects on markers of NPC disease severity. • Clinical efficacy data are limited but encouraging. Disease specific features, including fine motor, gait, and cognition improve in some subjects. Most patients for which data are available either stabilized or improved in disease specific features. 11
  • 12. Milestones – Niemann Pick trials • Phase I trial – completing enrollment • Phase I/II trial – completing enrollment • Unblind dosing data from US and Europe/Israel NPC trials and correlate biochemical and morphological changes with clinical outcomes. Timing under discussion with regulators. • Design of global pivotal trial -- Underway • Meetings with Regulators to discuss pathway to approval – Upcoming 12
  • 13. NPC and Alzheimer’s Disease share common features: • Neurofibrillary tangles, tau, amyloid beta plaques in brains of NPC and AD patients • Hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for AD • Lysosomal dysfunction found in both NPC and AD • Increased cellular cholesterol increases the association of an enzyme, secretase, with the precursor protein to amyloid beta (APP), leading to increased levels of amyloid beta Cell and Animal models for AD studies using HPBCDs show: • HPBCDs added to cells that over-express the precursor protein APP lowers amyloid beta • HPBCDs given subcutaneously to a mouse that over-expresses APP: • reduces amyloid beta by reducing cleavage of APP; • improves memory as shown in a standard water maze test; • reduces microgliosis; • up-regulates genes involved in cholesterol transport and amyloid beta clearance (as well as NPC1) 13 Links between NPC and Alzheimer’s Disease Reference: J. Yao, et al. Neuroprotection by cyclodextrin in cell and mouse models of Alzheimer disease. J. Exp. Med. 2012, V. 209 (13): 2501-2513
  • 14. Alzheimer’s Disease Compassionate Use Program • Individual IND authorized by FDA to use Trappsol® Cyclo™ in late-onset Alzheimer’s patient • PI is award-winning, highly recognized Alzheimer’s expert, Diana Kerwin MD • President of Kerwin Research Center, Dallas Texas • Formerly oversaw clinical trials and research for the National Institute on Aging-funded Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer’s Disease Center at Northwestern University, Chicago • Program costs funded 100% by external organization with CTD providing clinical manuals and other clinical materials, validation methodologies for biomarker analyses, and expert input on protocol design • Intravenous Dosing of Alzheimer’s patient began in May 2018 • FDA accepted annual report, positive safety profile, efficacy analysis ongoing, second year of dosing commenced June 2019 14
  • 15. Plan to Develop a HPBCD more able to cross blood-brain-barrier • CTD has initiated planning with Professor David Begley, Kings College London, and Professor Frances Platt, Oxford University, to design and test a novel HPBCD more able to cross BBB • Takes advantage of receptors on endothelial cells of the BBB, natural transporters • Chemically modify HPBCD to link a peptide that will bind to specific receptors, allowing transport into the CSF/brain • Potential delivery of other molecules in core of HPBCD • Year 1 plan: create modified constructs, test in vitro to identify most effective • Year 2 plan: test new construct(s) in animal models 15 In the R & D Pipeline Target Peptide
  • 16. IP & Patent Protection • The Company has a validated, robust manufacturing process for Trappsol® Cyclo™ that includes important trade secret steps and is proven to be scalable to commercial production. • Trappsol® Cyclo™ has stability monitoring data to support a 48 month expiration date and will soon be able to support 60 months. • This includes in-use stability data for 48 hours following dispensing • The Company holds valuable registered trademarks and copyrights including the Trappsol® Cyclo™ brand name • Type II Drug Master File (DMF) • CTD filed a patent on “Methods for Treating Alzheimer’s Disease” with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office • The filing describes dosing regimens and routes of administration of hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrins for the treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. • Orphan Drug Designation for NPC allows market exclusivity for 7 and 12 years in the US and EU, respectively. 16

Patient: Subject experienced an SAE of hypersensitivity pneumonitis resulting in their withdrawal from the study after the first infusion. The subject and family noted a hearing loss and so audiology was performed after their withdrawal. A sensorineural loss was diagnosed and was likely related to an immune-mediated global inflammatory process. Of note also was a complex medical and concomitant medication history making causality association difficult. The reduction in hearing resolved concurrently with an improvement in the hypersensitivity associated interstitial lung disease findings.

  • 31. Serious Adverse Events (SAE’s) -- 9 events reported in 2 subjects SAE: Intermittent seizures requiring hospitalisation. This was discussed and considered as not related to study treatment but down to non-compliance with their normal anti-epileptic medication. The subject was withdrawn from the study by family despite positive improvements in their disease SAE: Hospitalised intermittently for general healthy deterioration, aspiration pneumonia and non-study medication overdose. This subject was also withdrawn, by the physician, due to missed dosing and the deterioration in their general condition. Hearing Related Adverse Events 2 events reported in 1 subject An initial tinnitus was reported and documented at the patients Week 2 Study Visit. The event was self-limiting, lasting only48 hours and resolved. At the Week 24 Study Visit, routine audiometry was performed and a reduction of hearing at higher frequencies was noted. However, with no natural history data in this patient population with regards to hearing, and the examination being performed at frequencies outside of the protocol defined range, interpreting this was difficult and continues to be monitored.

  • 40. NPC Clinical Severity Score • Widely used tool in clinical research community starting in 2010 • Based on 9 major domains, or features of NPC disease: eye movement, ambulation, speech, swallow, fine motor skills, cognition, hearing, memory, and seizures. • And 8 modifying domains: Gelastic cataplexy, narcolepsy, behavior, psychiatric, hyperreflexia, incontinence, auditory brainstem response, and respiratory. • Each major domain is scored 0 – 5, modifying domains 0 – 2 with 0 being normal or no history of the disease manifestation. Most severe patients are scored 61 with this tool. 40
  • 41. • For patient 1 (yellow): The improvement in total score of 3 points (compared with baseline ) is due to reductions in severity in the eye movement (1 to 0), fine motor skills (2 to 1) and psychiatric modifier (1 to 0). For patient 2 (green): The improvement in total score (compared with baseline) is due to reductions in severity in eye movement (1 to 0), cognition (5 to 3), gelastic cataplexy (2 to 1) and incontinence (1 to 0). However, ambulation worsened (1 to 2) as did speech (3 to 4). Total score change reflects an improvement of 3 points. N=2 41 NPC Clinical Severity Scores Europe

  • 43. Clinical Efficacy Summary Europe/Israel and US • Initial clinical efficacy findings are encouraging. • From the EU/Israel trial, both patients out of the initial four who completed the 48 week trial improved overall NPC Clinical Severity Score by 3 points, each in different ways. Disease specific features, including fine motor, cognition, incontinence and eye movements, improved. • From the US trial, most patients who have completed the trial so far have remained stable or improved in specific features of the disease. 43
