Forward-Looking Statements This
presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this presentation that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered
forward-looking statements, including statements regarding expectations about our competitive position, business strategy, prospective products, timing, design, results and likelihood of success of studies and/or clinical trials, including the Phase
1/2 pheNIX trial, including the expansion phase and the potential for conversion to a registrational trial, and IND-enabling studies and/or planned clinical studies for PKU, MLD and MPS II (Hunter syndrome), timing for regulatory feedback, plans and
objectives of management for future operations, manufacturing facility capabilities, the market opportunity for our product candidates, and the potential future uses and effects of our product candidates. These forward-looking statements are based
on management's current expectations. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: the fact that we have incurred significant losses since inception and
expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future; our need for additional funding, which may not be available; raising additional capital may cause dilution to our stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights to our
technologies or drug candidates; our limited operating history; failure to use our novel genetic medicines platform to identify additional product candidates and develop marketable products; adverse public perception of genetic medicine, and gene
editing in particular, may negatively impact regulatory approval of, or demand for, our potential products; the early stage of our development efforts with all programs in the research or preclinical stage; our failure or the failure of our
collaborators to successfully develop and commercialize drug candidates; the regulatory approval processes of the FDA and comparable foreign authorities are lengthy, time-consuming and inherently unpredictable; delays or difficulties in the
enrollment of patients in clinical trials; our product candidates may cause serious adverse events, side effects, toxicities or have other properties that may delay or prevent their regulatory approval; interim, topline and preliminary data may
change as more patient data become available, and are subject to audit and verification procedures that could result in material changes in the final data; inability to maintain any of our collaborations, or the failure of these collaborations; our
reliance on third parties to conduct our preclinical studies and manufacture our drug candidates; our inability to obtain required regulatory approvals; the fact that a Fast Track or Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA for our drug
candidates may not actually lead to a faster development or regulatory review or approval process; the inability to obtain orphan drug exclusivity for drug candidates; failure to obtain marketing approval in international jurisdictions; failure to
obtain U.S. marketing approval; ongoing regulatory obligations, continued regulatory review and any post-marketing restrictions or withdrawals from the market; effects of recently enacted and future legislation; failure to comply with environmental,
health and safety laws and regulations; failure to achieve market acceptance by physicians, patients, or third-party payors; failure to establish sales, marketing and distribution capabilities on our own or in collaboration with third parties with
such capabilities; effects of significant competition; unfavorable pricing regulations, third-party reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives; product liability lawsuits; failure to retain key personnel and attract, retain and
motivate qualified personnel; difficulties in managing our growth; the possibility of system failures or security breaches; failure to obtain and maintain patent protection for or otherwise protect our technology and products; effects of patent or
other intellectual property lawsuits; the price of our common stock may be volatile and fluctuate substantially; significant costs and required management time as a result of operating as a public company; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our
business and operations, including our preclinical studies, ongoing and planned clinical trials and ability to access capital; and any securities class action litigation. These and other important factors discussed under the caption "Risk
Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the
forward-looking statements made in this presentation. Any such forward-looking statements represent management's estimates as of the date of this presentation. While we may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the
future, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation. This
presentation also includes statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from industry publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties or us. Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and
studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. All of the market data used in this presentation involves a
number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. While we believe these industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies are reliable, we have not independently verified such
data. The industry in which we operate is subject to a high degree of uncertainty, change and risk due to a variety of factors, which could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates made by the independent parties and

Standard of care onerous low Phe
diet has poor compliance Diet not sufficient to reduce Phe levels to within ACMG targets (120-360 mol/L) or EU targets (120-600 mol/L) Therapeutics do not reconstitute normal biochemical pathway for ~95% of patients; all require
chronic dosing vs. a potential one-time treatment Effective PKU Treatment Remains a High Unmet Medical Need Target sources: Vockley J et al. Genetics in Medicine 2014; Levy H et al. Molecular Genetics and Metabolism 2019; van Spronsen FJ et al.
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2017. ACMG = American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics Classical PKU is most severe form (~2/3 of PKU population) Inborn error of metabolism caused by mutations in the PAH gene Results in loss of function
of phenylalanine hydroxylase responsible for metabolism of phenylalanine (Phe) If untreated, toxic levels of Phe accumulate and result in progressive and severe neurological impairment

*GeneReviews [Internet] Source: Homology market research Classical PKU patients' Phe levels >1,200 mol/L untreated * ACMG and EU guidelines strive for 360 and 600 mol/L, respectively Most try to self-manage
by highly restrictive diet alone Constant struggle with dietary decisions: every day, every meal: Phe counting, required medical formula, low protein intake (4-8g/day ) Long-term impact of high and fluctuating Phe levels Short-term mood swings and
long-term cognitive issues, including anxiety, depression, challenges with decision making, "PKU brain fog," and difficulty focusing Quality of life challenges of disease and management Strains on relationships, work-life and everyday
tasks Est. less than half find success Therapeutics do not reconstitute normal biochemical pathway for ~95% of patients
