ALS Therapy Development Institute 10 year Anniversary 1999 - 2009

Annual report 2009 Letter from the CEO

The ALS Therapy Development Institute is unlike any other research center in the world. As you will see from the following pages, the Institute that you have helped to build has overcome many challenges throughout the years. It wasn’t a gift from the government or major corporations that formed ALS TDI; it was the accumulated generosity and sense of urgency shared by hundreds of families from all over the world that laid the foundation, fueling research year after year. This dedication has provided nearly $60 million to ALS TDI and created a center of excellence solely dedicated to responding to the ALS crisis. Just as we were driven and inspirited by ALS patients ten years ago, so are we today.

The face of the Institute has changed dramatically over the years as well. New families have joined those whom have been here since the beginning. New technology and researchers have become part of the team, allowing us to do more with every dollar we receive. Each and every ALS patient, caregiver, family member, donor, friend, employee, collaborator, consultant, and partner plays an important role in the advancement of our mission. Every new step taken toward that goal is only possible because of those that came before, and we continue to honor past contributions by never wavering in our resolve.

In order to begin to tell the story of ALS TDI we must recognize the families that have funded our research, and as such this annual report starts by first listing the Family Funds that have made our work possible. The generosity of the ALS community and our partners at the MDA and the Department of Defense, along with the dozens of academic and industry collaborations that we work with have significantly shortened the length of time and cost of drug development for ALS.

This annual report contains a brief history of ALS TDI over the past 10 years. The core values that drive us today have not changed from what they were ten years ago: courage and love, challenge and respect, hope, an adventurous spirit and patients today. We will always make decisions with those battling ALS today at the forefront of our minds. It is a privilege to report to you, that over the past year, we have made great strides, however more work is needed if we are to turn incremental advancements into treatments for patients today.

I am daily reminded of the responsibility I shoulder as I look back at ALS TDI from the beginning. What this place means to those that have been part of its creation and growth, the loss that has been incurred, and the hope we must work daily to make real. As a scientist it is my duty to look at ALS in an unbiased way and ask the tough questions about ALS. As the head of ALS TDI it is my profound responsibility to ensure our progress, for all those that supported us and for those counting on us today. This is your lab and I thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Steve Perrin, Ph.D. CEO & Ch i e f Scientific Of f i ce r

2009 ALS TDI Annual Report | 13 20,000 DONATIONS, 300 FAMILY FUNDS, 200 GRASSROOTS EVENTS – 1 GOAL

While 2009 may have been one of the most challenging fundraising years for many organizations, ALS TDI held strong thanks to the commitment and determination of the ALS community to fund their own brick-and-mortar research institute. MORE THAN 300 FAMILY FUNDS FUEL OUR RESEARCH. THEIR COMBINED EFFORTS LED TO NEARLY 20,000 INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS IN 2009.

The graph below depicts the total spending and percentage of total expenses for the various categories reported on each year. The Institute’s finances are in a strong position with reserves at their highest point since the foundation was created, allowing for long-term and strategic investments and planning to advance more potential therapeutics from the lab bench to the bedside quicker than ever before. THIS KEY ADDITIONAL FUNDING WILL ENABLE MORE NOVEL THERAPEUTIC CANDIDATES TO MOVE FROM THE PRECLINICAL PIPELINE INTO THE PARTNERING AND CLINICAL TRIAL PHASES OF DEVELOPMENT.
