Engineering the Medicines of Tomorrow<br />

The Company<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong> is a biotechnology company focused on the develop -<br />

ment of antibodies. Using its proprietary techno logies, the Company<br />

develops and commercializes high-quality antibodies for<br />

therapeutic applications. By combining in-house development<br />

with selected alliances, <strong>MorphoSys</strong> has built one of the industry’s<br />

broadest pipelines of therapeutic antibody candi dates. Proprietary<br />

technologies are used to develop innovative compounds<br />

on <strong>MorphoSys</strong>’s own responsibility and in collaboration with<br />

partners. The cooperations generate constant cash flows which<br />

are invested in the development of the Company’s proprietary<br />

antibody portfolio. This sound financial performance dis tin gui shes<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong> from many other companies in the industry.<br />

Business Strategy<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong> operates in two business segments. The Partnered<br />

Discovery segment operates in partnerships with pharmaceutical<br />

and biotechnology companies, applying the Company’s proprietary<br />

technologies to generate new drug candidates. While<br />

the development costs are borne by the partner, <strong>MorphoSys</strong><br />

secures research funding and technology license fees, and stands<br />

to benefit from successful programs through mile stone payments<br />

and royalties on product sales. By way of example, the Company’s<br />

strategic alliance with Novartis is one of the largest R&D<br />

agreements ever signed in the pharma ceutical industry. The<br />

second segment, Proprietary Development, also operates in the<br />

pharmaceutical industry. In this segment <strong>MorphoSys</strong> uses its<br />

proprietary technologies to develop new therapeutic antibody<br />

candidates on its own responsibility and to partner them at a<br />

certain stage of clinical testing. The focus is on indications such<br />

as inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, as well as oncology.<br />

In each program there is a clear focus on in novative approaches<br />

to diseases which are currently not well-treated.<br />

Technologies<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong>’s success is based on its strong technologies, comprising<br />

several billion distinct, fully human antibodies which<br />

can be optimized for specific applications. Currently, more than<br />

80 therapeutic antibodies derived from HuCAL are in development.<br />

In total, 21 programs in <strong>MorphoSys</strong>’s pipeline are in clinical<br />

testing.<br />

Through its 2010 acquisition of Sloning BioTechnology,<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong> became the sole source of Sloning’s state-of-the-art<br />

Slonomics technology, which dramatically improves the assembly<br />

and quality of protein libraries. This technology is used to<br />

accelerate the generation of therapeutic antibodies and is at<br />

the core of <strong>MorphoSys</strong>’s newest antibody technology Ylanthia.<br />

Ylanthia was specifically designed to overcome current<br />

limitations in therapeutic antibody development, including<br />

challenges associated with certain target classes, limited diversity,<br />

poor biophysical properties and difficult production.<br />

In 2012, <strong>MorphoSys</strong> launched its "Innovation Capital" initiative<br />

through which the Company invests in promising start-ups<br />

with technologies and product candidates being close to its areas<br />

of interest. <strong>MorphoSys</strong> seeks to combine the classical cor porate<br />

venture approach with collaborative elements. In 2012, <strong>MorphoSys</strong><br />

announced a first collaboration in this area with Lanthio<br />

Pharma, a biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering<br />

and developing lantipeptides.<br />

1. Partnered Products<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong>’s partnered product pipeline comprises more than<br />

70 antibody programs covering a range of indications. The pipeline<br />

spans a number of successful partnerships which have been<br />

established over the last 12 years since the HuCAL technology<br />

was introduced. Of the programs in development, 17 are pre -<br />

sently in human clinical trials and around 20 in preclinical<br />

evaluation.<br />

2. Proprietary Products<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong> develops proprietary therapeutic antibody candidates<br />

in the areas of inflammation and oncology. By conducting<br />

the discovery, pre-clinical and early clinical development itself,<br />

<strong>MorphoSys</strong> is building a valuable portfolio of proprietary drugs.<br />

Currently, the proprietary product portfolio comprises the following<br />

clinical stage programs, two of which <strong>MorphoSys</strong> could<br />

partner successfully in 2013:<br />

MOR103 (GlaxoSmithKline)<br />

In June 2013 <strong>MorphoSys</strong> signed a global agreement with GlaxoSmithKline<br />

(GSK) to develop and commercialize MOR103.<br />

MOR103 is a HuCAL antibody directed against GM-CSF, a thera -<br />

peutic target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases that<br />

has great potential in a number of indications where current<br />

treat ments are inadequate. A clinical phase 1b/2a study in<br />

patients with RA has been completed and reported excellent<br />

data on safety and efficacy in September 2012. In addition to<br />

the RA trial, MOR103 is currently being tested in a phase 1b trial<br />

in patients with multiple sclerosis.<br />

MOR202 (Celgene)<br />

In July 2013 <strong>MorphoSys</strong> and Celgene signed an agreement to<br />

jointly develop MOR202 globally and to co-promote MOR202 in<br />

Europe. MOR202 is a HuCAL antibody directed against CD38, a<br />

promising therapeutic target for the treatment of multiple myeloma<br />

and certain leukemias. MOR202 is currently being tested<br />

in a phase 1/2a trial in multiple myeloma patients.<br />

MOR208<br />

MOR208 is a humanized monoclonal antibody in-licensed from<br />

Xencor, which targets the antigen CD19. The antibody incor -<br />

porates an optimized Fc portion, which further enhances its ability<br />

to kill malignant CD-19-bearing B-cells. MOR208 is being<br />

developed for the treatment of B-cell malignancies and autoimmune<br />

diseases. The program has concluded a phase 1 trial in<br />

patients with CLL and is now being evaluated in two phase 2<br />

studies in ALL and NHL.<br />
