Embryomics: Commercial Opportunities in the Increasingly Complex Biology of Pluripotency Case Western Reserve University July 16, 2013 Forward Looking Statements The matters discussed in this presentation include forward looking statements which are subject to various risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to the success of BioTime in developing new stem cell products and technologies; results of clinical trials of BioTime products; the ability of BioTime and its licensees to obtain additional FDA and foreign regulatory approval to market BioTime products; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies; the price of and demand for BioTime products; and the ability of BioTime to raise the capital needed to finance its current and planned operations. Any statements that are not historical fact (including, but not limited to statements that contain words such as "will," "believes," "plans," "anticipates," "expects," "estimates") should also be considered to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, risks inherent in the development and/or commercialization of potential products, uncertainty in the results of clinical trials or regulatory approvals, need and ability to obtain future capital, and maintenance of intellectual property rights. As actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements they should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect the business of BioTime and its subsidiaries, particularly those mentioned in the cautionary statements found in BioTime's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. BioTime disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements. 2 The Opportunity in Pluripotency • Scalable source of all human cell types • Source of embryonic progenitors 3 Challenges of Pluripotency • Scalable & reproducible product • Purity and identity of cells • A formulation optimizing viability & immobilization of engraftment • Strategies for near-term commercialization 4 Contrasted Scale-Up Strategies Purification of Problem of impurities Differentiation ES Cells desired cell type >200-fold diversity Scalable, monoclonally purified progenitors 5 Solving the Challenge of Reproducibility Embryoid Body Activin A FGF2 Wnt 3A Pluripotent Stem Cells 1,000 + Complexity of Cell Types 6 The Opportunity of hES Cell Scalability TRF Length Population Doublings (kbp) Germ-Line & Pluripotent SCs 22 34 43 55 65 72 82 90 15 (Telomerase +) Somatic 10 (Telomerase -) 5 Decreasing Telomere Length with Age Length with Telomere Decreasing Neonatal Hayflick Limit Age 7 Solving the Technical Hurdles 8 Solving the Technical Hurdles 9 Solving the Technical Hurdles 10 Solving the Technical Hurdles 11 Manufacturing Technology 2.0 Human embryonic progenitor (hEP) cell lines: > 200 diverse cell types isolated Kidney Diversity Smooth Muscle Precise identity Skeletal Muscle Purity Scalability Blood/Brain Patents pending Barrier 12 Purity Purified Embryonic Progenitor Line E68 CNTN6 CNTN6 Isotype Ab Reg Med 3(3):287 (2008) Direct Scalability Selection Criteria of Scalability in Rollers hEP Cell Line Scalability Regen Med 2012 Jul;7(4):481-501 4D20.8 Scalability Regen Med 2012 Jul;7(4):481-501 4D20.8 Scalability Fate Space Screening TGFbs Chondrogenesis FGFs Angiogenesis BMPs Osteogenesis RA Neurogenesis WNTs Myogenesis >100 Scalable Array of Diverse Approx 4,000 Clonal hEP Differentiation Gene Expression Lines Conditions Microarrays 18 Fate Space Screening T42 in MM Culture T42 in HyStem Culture 19 Subsidiaries OncoCyte Corporation Cancer diagnostics and anti-cancer therapies Cell Cure Neurosciences Ltd.

Such lines, if capable of osteochondral differentiation, could have the advantages of homologous use (i.e. not putting mandibular mesenchyme in the knee). First, limb buds are an outgrowth from lateral plate mesoderm (LPM), specifically the somatic mesoderm). Splanchnic Mesoderm Lateral Plate Mesoderm Somatic Mesoderm 41 Limb Bud Markers The nomenclature is as follows: 42 Limb Bud Markers Distal LPM, perhaps from distal HOX genes, is thought to trigger PITX1, a dominant factor for conversion of limb bud to hindlimb. PITX1 is also expressed in mandibular mesenchyme as shown below for PureStem SK11 and SM30. Mandibular Mesenchyme Forelimb Hindlimb Taher L, Collette NM, Murugesh D, Maxwell E, Ovcharenko I, et al.
