Thiola® (tiopronin)

• Trademark license and supply agreements with Mission Pharmacal for U.S. & Canadian markets

• Thiola® is an FDA approved small molecule for the prevention of cystine stone formation

– Binds with cystine to form a more soluble molecule which can be excreted in the urine

• Thiola® significantly reduces the number of stone events in patients with cystinuria

– Taken prophylactically

– If left untreated, cystinuria patients can have multiple stone events per year

2-months of cystine

stones formed by a

single teenage patient

Cystine Stone Severity

• Small stones may be passed in urine however, medium stones often become lodged in the ureter creating a urinary obstruction

– Pressure from obstruction results in kidney damage, if left untreated can lead to chronic kidney disease

• Large stones may remain in the kidney and impair kidney outflow which can lead to severe infection

• Not a typical kidney stone

– Generally does not respond to lithotripsy

– Surgical intervention is regularly required to remove

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy

• Pain comes without warning and can be debilitating to cystinuria patients

– Lifestyle revolves around stone formation - unable to travel, often miss work

– Surgery can lead to lengthy hospital visits and increased expense

An average of one surgical procedure every 3 years, with 7 surgical procedures by middle age1

Cholbam™ (cholic acid)

• Cholbam™ (cholic acid) is one of two primary bile acid therapies Oral dosing of 10 to 15 mg/kg/day

• First FDA approved treatment for pediatric and adult patients with bile acid synthesis disorders due to single enzyme defects and peroxisomaldisorders

Seven years of market exclusivity via orphan drug designation

• The absence of cholic acid in patients suffering from these disorders leads to:

Accumulation of potentially toxic bile acid intermediates in the liver (cholestasis) Malabsorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins in the diet

• Treatment with Cholbam™ may: Prevent progression of liver disease Normalize liver biochemical and histological abnormalities

• If untreated, these patients fail to grow and may develop life-threatening liver injury, potentially resulting in liver transplant or death

Cholbam™ Patient Population Dynamics

Overview

• Retrophin owns all rights and titles to Cholbam™

– Approximately 30 patients in clinical extension study

– 20+ patients have begun commercial therapy as of June 1, 2015

– New patients have been identified and begun therapy

Single Enzyme Defects

• Incidence of ~ 1 to 9 per million live births

– Many single-enzyme defect patients may live a prolonged life compared to absence of Cholbam™ therapy

PeroxisomalDisorders

• Incidence of ~ 1 in 50,000 live births

– Normally terminal conditions with a range of severity; majority of diagnosed patients do not live more than a few years

– Cholbam™ is considered an adjunctive therapy with the potential to treat the hepatic defects in peroxisomal disorders but it is not likely to prolong life for most of these patients

Chenodal® (chenodeoxycholic acid)

• Chenodal® (CDCA) is a synthetic bile acid approved for the treatment of gallstones, but…

• …usage is exclusively in cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX)

– CDCA is the standard of care for CTX

– Chenodal® is the only FDA-approved formulation of CDCA

• Retrophin is seeking U.S. regulatory approval for the addition of the CTX indication to the Chenodal® label

– Met with the FDA in 1Q15, remain in discussions to determine an acceptable pathway for the addition of CTX to the label

– Chenodal® received Orphan Status for CTX in 2010 and could gain seven years of market exclusivity with changes to the current label

Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (CTX)

• CTX is very difficult to diagnose

– CTX patients begin life with refractory diarrhea, rarely leading to CTX diagnosis

– Disease progression then occurs with juvenile cataracts, tendon xanthomas (lipid deposition), and neurological deterioration (motor dysfunction, intellectual disabilities)

– Diagnosis generally occurs in patients in their mid-30’s after significant neurological damage

• The disease can be lethal without Chenodal® treatment

Reducing Proteinuria Improves Renal Outcomes

• Reduction in proteinuria is the main treatment goal in many nephropathies

– Proteinuria damages the integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier by overloading renal tubules, causing an inflammatory and fibrotic cascade1

– Recent meta-analysis of interventional trials in both diabetic and non-diabetic CKD show a 30% reduction in proteinuria correlates to a 23.7% reduction in ESRD risk2

– Patients who have a reduction in proteinuria also demonstrate improved cholesterol, improved serum albumin, reduction in steroid dose and blood pressure improvement3

• Troyanov et al showed that FSGS patients who have a reduction in proteinuria have improved kidney survival4

– Complete Remission (CR) defined as proteinuria <0.3 g/d; 77% decrease in renal failure (p < 0.001) compared to NR

– Partial Remission (PR) defined as >50% reduction in peak proteinuria and to subnephrotic levels; 52% reduction in renal failure (p = 0.04) compared to NR

RE-024 for the Treatment of Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration (PKAN)

• Lethal, autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder

– Caused by mutations in PANK2, a kinase (gene discovered in 2001)

– Approximately 2,500 – 5,000 patients worldwide*

• Dystonia is the cardinal symptom of PKAN

– Classic (75%): childhood-onset, rapid progression form

Parkinsonian phenotype with loss of ambulation and early mortality due to disease complications and sequelae

– Atypical (25%): adult-onset, slower progression form

• No FDA/EMA approved treatments

RE-024 and PKAN Biology

• Pantothenate kinase (Pank) phosphorylates pantothenate (PA) to yield phosphopantothenate (PPA)

• It is postulated that PANK2 deficient patients have decreased or no ability to synthesize PPA

• PPA is an essential precursor in the synthesis of Coenzyme A (CoA)

• CoA is important in many functions, mostly related to mitochondrial energy metabolism

• RE-024 is a phosphopantothenate replacement therapy

RE-034 (Synthetic ACTH)

• RE-034 is a synthetic ACTH analog (1-24 vs. 1-39) which is a pan-melanocortin receptor (MCR) agonist

– 1-24 ACTH preparations have shown similar clinical results to 1-39 preparations

• Physicians, patients, and regulators prefer synthetic medicines to animal-derived products

– The high cost of porcine ACTH has limited treatment access

• Filed for a provisional patent covering Retrophin’s novel formulation in 1Q15

• Currently exploring strategic options for development of RE-034

– Clinical studies could be initiated in 2016

– Clinical development strategy may include multiple severe rare disease indications
