3 Cloudbreak is a bispecific immunobiotic Microbe TM EM Immune Component TARGETING MOIETY EFFECTOR MOIETY Binds conserved cell surface target Engages innate or adaptive immune system 3

4 Cloudbreak s antibacterial action is multifaceted G- PATHOGEN 1 Direct kill Superior PK/ADME 1. Long half-life (similar to antibodies) 2. Good lung exposures 3 Potentiation Protection from 3. Avoids 4 septic kidney shock toxicity 2 Immune recruitment 4

5 Cloudbreak binds and enters bacterial cells Binding Permeabilization A. baumannii Cloudbreak binds to the cell In presence of Cloudbreak, SYTOX Green enters cell 5
