21 © 2019 Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. – Confidential – Do not duplicate or distribute TNX - 102 SL 2.8 mg for Fibromyalgia: F301 Study Results and Program Updates Safety results: • Good tolerability and low rates of systemic AEs. • The most common AEs were generally mild and transient events related to the sublingual administration of the study drug: • hypoaesthesia (tongue or oral numbness) • glossodynia (burning sensation or other tongue discomfort) • oral paraesthesias (tingling sensations) • abnormal product taste (bitter or noticeable taste) • The severity and incidence of oral AEs are similar to those reported in our PTSD studies using TNX - 102 SL 5.6 mg. Conclusion: • The results and efficacy findings support further investigation of TNX - 102 SL at double the dose , 5.6 mg (2 x 2.8 mg tablets) , as a chronic treatment for FM. Program updates: • Clear guidance received from FDA* to advance the FM program. The long - term safety exposure data from the PTSD program may support the fibromyalgia NDA*. • TNX - 102 SL 5.6 mg (2 x 2.8 mg tablets) daily at bedtime will be studied in new Phase 3 study to support product registration *March 2019 FDA meeting minutes
