Hepatitis C –opportunities to improve current therapy • Efficacy – SVR superior to Pegasus/RBV • G1 treatment naïve: currently achieves ~45% SVR (of HCV infected in the US >70% has G1) • Non-responders • Genotype 2-6 • Decrease treatment duration • Currently 48 weeks for most common and difficult-to-treat genotype 1 (G1) • Safety – no added AE’s compared with Pegasus/RBV • Standard-of-care associated with severe side effects (flu-like symptoms, fatigue, depression, hemolytic anemia) • Contraindicated in patients with decompensated liver failure • Dosing – once daily (q.d.)
Hepatitis C – Medivir/J&J program NS3/4A: Key protease for virus replication Process • Partnership with Tibotec / Johnson & Johnson since November 2004 • Phase I trials initiated February 2007 • Pre-clinical data on TMC435350 presented in Glasgow at “14th International Symposium on Hepatitis C Virus and Related Viruses” September 9-13 • Clinical phase Ia data on safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics will be presented at the AASLD Liver Meeting in Boston 2-6th November. Patents • Extensive and non-limiting IP published July 2005 Licensing agreement • Rights to receive pharmaceutical product for Nordic countries from JNJ at pre-defined point in development • Nordic rights retained by Medivir Enzyme inhibiting compound

Medivir/Tibotec HCV PI Series Data on TMC435350 • Several series of highly potent NS3/4A inhibitors with strong IP developed • Fine tuning of these inhibitors in collaboration with Tibotec Pharmaceuticals Ltd, J&J, has resulted in the selection of a Clinical Candidate, TMC435350 From presentations at the 1st International Workshop on Hepatitis C Resistance and New Compounds, Boston 25-26 October 2006 and the 3rd Anglo-Swedish Medicinal Chemistry Meeting, 11-14 March 2007, Åre, Sweden
Rat exposure of TMC435350 Good systemic oral bioavailability Plasma exposure : C8h-plasma>EC99; liver exposure C24h-liver >EC99
TMC435350 Safety pharmacology • Agar Ames assay: negative • Mouse lymphoma assay: negative • Mouse micronucleus screening assay: negative • No effect on autonomic and behavioral parameters in mice up to 300 mg/kg (oral) and in rats up to 10 mg/kg in a Pharmascreen®

Bone disorders (MIV-701) Bone surface • MIV-701 selectively inhibits the bone and cartilage degrading enzyme cathepsin K • Osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and bone metastases • Target profile: • Improved bone quality (c/f bisphosphonates) • Bone growth capability • Once-dailyoral dosing • Strong Follow-on program in place with CD selection as next step Cath K Osteoclast
Bone disorders (MIV-701) Market • Approx 100 million patients in major growing markets (osteoporosis only) • Strong interest in cathepsin K inhibition from major pharma companies Process • Clinical phase Ia trials commenced March 2007 • Phase Ib trials ongoing • Results from the phase I trial late 2007 Patent/generic competition • Patent applications being processed • Expected patent protection until 2025 Partner strategy • Establish industrial partnership after completion of phase I (2008)
MIV-701 Phase I Study initiated March 2007 Completion during Q4 2007Objective: Safety, tolerability, PK and biomarkers for efficacy
“The Protease Discovery Engine” -A reliable repeat innovator HIV – PI • Collaboration project with Tibotec / Johnson & Johnson MMP- COPD • Excellent results in pre-clinical disease model • Next step: selection of Candidate Drug Renin - Hypertension • IP compiled for three distinct and highly potent inhibitor series • Next step: studies in a pre-clinical hypertensive efficacy model Cathepsin S – RA, MS and pain • Potent and selective inhibitors • Efficacious in preclinical disease models • Fine-tuning of PK properties BACE – Alzheimer’s disease • High potency and selective inhibitor series identified • Optimization ongoing • IP filed
Key Events Going Forward • Phase III data, Q1 2008 • Partnership agreement(s) • Market approval, 2008/09 LIPSOVIR • Phase Ia data in November 2007 • Start phase II trials • Possibility to receive “approved drug”from Johnson & Johnson HEPATITIS C (TMS-435350) • Phase I data late 2007 • Partnership post phase I MIV-701 • Product acquisitions, quids and co marketing 2008/09 Sales & marketing • MIV-606 start of phase IIb trials • New clinical trials and new data in other out- • licensed projects HIV FRANCHISE
