Forward looking statements Certain statements included in this presentation (this “Presentation”) that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are sometimes accompanied by words such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "expect," "should," "would," "plan," "predict," "potential," "seem," "seek," "future," "outlook" and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Nuvation Bio’s business strategies, cash resources, current and prospective product candidates, the potential therapeutic benefit of Nuvation Bio's product candidates, the expected timing of regulatory filings and clearance and clinical trial dose selection, initiation and data presentation, as well as the potential for market acceptance of any approved products and the related market opportunity. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Presentation, and on the current expectations of the management team of Nuvation Bio and are not predictions of actual performance. Actual events and circumstances, many of which are beyond Nuvation Bio’s control, are difficult or impossible to predict and may cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, the inherent uncertainty associated with pharmaceutical product development and clinical trials; the risk of unexpected emergence of adverse events or other undesirable side effects; delays in clinical trials due to difficulties or delays in the regulatory process, enrolling subjects or manufacturing or supplying product for such clinical trials; disruptions to normal business operations relating to the COVID-19 pandemic; the risk that Nuvation Bio will be unable to successfully market or gain market acceptance of its product candidates; the risk that Nuvation Bio’s product candidates may not be beneficial to patients or successfully commercialized; the risk that Nuvation Bio has overestimated the size of the target patient population, their willingness to try new therapies and the willingness of physicians to prescribe these therapies; and developments in the competitive landscape. The risks and uncertainties facing Nuvation Bio are discussed more fully in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 10, 2021, under the heading "Risk Factors," and other documents that Nuvation Bio has filed or will file with the SEC. There may be additional risks that Nuvation Bio does not presently know, or that Nuvation Bio currently believes are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Nuvation Bio's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views only as of the date of this Presentation. Nuvation Bio anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its assessments to change. However, while Nuvation Bio may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Nuvation Bio specifically disclaims any obligation to do so.

BET: Bromodomain and extra-terminal motif proteins BET are a family of proteins (e.g., BRD4) with two bromodomains (BD1 and BD2)1 BET family of proteins have critical biological functions and are found to be altered in many human cancers2 BET proteins play a critical role in gene transcription1 To date, BET inhibitors have largely focused on targeting both BD1 and BD2 Non-selective BD1/2-inhibitors in development have been associated with tolerability issues, potentially due to BD1 inhibition3 Several BET inhibitors have advanced to clinical studies, but development has been limited due to PK, toxicity, or lack of efficacy4 Potential strategies to overcome development challenges include investigating BET inhibitors in combination and developing BET inhibitors with BD2 selectivity 1Taniguchi, 2016 2 Bechter and Schoffski, 2020 3Faivre et al 2020 4Sun et al, 2021

BET: Bromodomain and extra-terminal motif proteins BET are a family of proteins with two bromodomains (BD1 and BD2) BET proteins can induce the expression of a number of oncogenes, including MYC – an oncogene that cannot be targeted directly with a drug To date, BET inhibitors have largely focused on targeting both both domains (BD1 and BD2) Non-selective BD1/2-inhibitors in development have been associated with tolerability issues, potentially due to BD1 inhibition1 NUV-868 is a highly selective BD2 vs BD1 BET inhibitor Selective BD2 vs BD1 inhibition can potentially improve tolerability but has been difficult to achieve Selective BD2 inhibitors have the potential to block many oncogenes, including c-myc 1.

NUV-1182, an A2A adenosine receptor inhibitor, boosts immune function and may enhance the efficacy of IO-targeted therapies NUV-1182 targets the A2A adenosine receptor A2A adenosine receptor plays multiple critical roles in human physiology and pathophysiology including anti-cancer immunity Accumulation of adenosine in the tumor microenvironment may be a critical factor in limiting the activity of currently available immune-oncology drugs, including anti-PD1/PD-L1 drugs and anti-cancer chimeric T cells. Targeting A2A may overcome this blockade, leading to improved anti-cancer activity in tumors which are resistant to immuno-oncology drugs and T cell therapies.
