Disclaimers Forward Looking Statements Certain statements in this Presentation may constitute “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies of Korro Bio, Inc. (Korro) and/or Frequency Therapeutics, Inc. (Frequency) regarding the future including, without limitation, statements regarding: Korro’s RNA editing technology and the benefits of OPERA; the market opportunity for Korro’s alpha-1 anti-trypsin deficiency (AATD) therapy and potential benefits over other AATD modalities; expectations and assumptions related to amounts of cash to be contributed by Frequency at the closing of the proposed business combination between Korro and Frequency (the Proposed Transaction); Korro’s expected cash runway and plans for discovery and preclinical studies, as well as clinical trials, including timing of regulatory filings and data readouts and other developments or results in connection therewith; and the expected effects of the Proposed Transaction. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” continue,” “ could,” “estimate,” “ expect,” “ intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “ should,” “ strive,” “would,” “aim,” “target,” “commit,” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that statement is not forward looking. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that, while considered reasonable are inherently uncertain. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, various factors beyond management’s control including general economic conditions; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Korro or Frequency following the announcement of the Proposed Transaction; the inability to complete the Proposed Transaction, including due to the inability to concurrently close the business combination and the private placement of common stock or due to failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of Frequency; delays in obtaining, adverse conditions contained in, or the inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals, or delays in completing regulatory reviews, required to complete the Proposed Transaction; the risk that the Proposed Transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Proposed Transaction; the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain key employees; costs related to the Proposed Transaction; the possibility that the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the proxy statement/prospectus on Form S-4 which is expected to be filed by Frequency with the SEC; and other risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under “Risk Factors” herein as well as in the sections entitled “Risk Factors,” “Risk Factor Summary” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in Frequency’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 12, 2023, and its other filings with the SEC, as well as factors associated with companies, such as Korro and Frequency, that operate in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Risk factors Both Frequency and Korro are subject to various risks associated with their businesses and their industries. In addition, the Proposed Transaction, including the possibility that the Proposed Transaction may not be completed, poses a number of risks to each company and its respective securityholders. All references to “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the business of Korro prior to the consummation of the Proposed Transaction. The risks described below make up a non-exhaustive list of the key risks related to Korro’s business and the factors that could cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements described in this Presentation. You should carefully consider these risks and uncertainties, as well as factors set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Frequency’s most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q, its most recent annual report on Form 10-K and its other SEC filings. The list below is qualified in its entirety by disclosures contained in future documents filed or furnished in respect of the Proposed Transaction with the SEC: • Korro’s limited operating history and its evolving business make it difficult to evaluate its future prospects and the risks and challenges it may encounter. • Korro’s product candidate pipeline is in early stages and it does not yet have any product candidates in the clinic, nor approved for commercial sale; Korro has not generated any revenue to date, and so may never become profitable. • Even if the Proposed Transaction and the concurrent financing are successful, the combined company will require substantial additional capital to finance its operations in the future. If the combined company is unable to raise such capital when needed, or on acceptable terms, it may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate its discovery and pre-clinical programs, planned clinical trials or future commercialization efforts; • Korro’s expectations regarding its cash runway and ability to reach data inflection points are based on numerous assumptions that may prove to be untrue; Korro may be required to raise capital sooner than anticipated and its exposure to certain contingent liabilities and contractual obligations may be greater than anticipated. For example, Korro’s assumptions relating to the amounts of Frequency’s cash available to Korro at the closing of the Proposed Transaction, including amounts that may be required to negotiate early lease terminations and costs associated with ongoing litigation, may prove to be incorrect, and as a result any additional amounts Korro would be required to spend may be material and significantly impact its cash runway and ability to achieve its inflection points without significant additional capital. • Korro operates in an intensely competitive market that includes companies with greater financial, technical and marketing resources than it. • Failure to manage Korro’s growth effectively could cause its business to suffer and have an adverse effect on its ability to execute its business strategy, as well as operating results and financial condition. • As Korro’s costs increase, it may experience fluctuations in its operating results, which could make its future operating results difficult to predict or cause its operating results to fall below analysts’ and investors’ expectations. • Korro’s programs are still in discovery and pre-clinical phases. If Korro is unable to advance them into and through clinical development for safety or efficacy or other reasons, or commercialize its product candidates once approved or experience significant delays in doing so, its business will be materially harmed. • Korro’s current or future product candidates may cause adverse or other undesirable side effects that could delay or prevent their regulatory approval, limit the commercial profile of an approved label or result in significant negative consequences following marketing approval, if any. • If Korro is unable to obtain and maintain patent and other intellectual property protection for its technology and product candidates or if the scope of the intellectual property protection obtained is not sufficiently broad or it is delayed in bringing product candidates to market such that those products have a shorter period of patent exclusivity than it expects, its competitors could develop and commercialize technology and product candidates similar or identical to Korro’s, and its ability to successfully commercialize its technology and/or product candidates may be impaired. • Korro may be subject to intellectual property rights claims by third parties, which are costly to defend, could require it to pay significant damages and may disrupt its business and operations. • The conditions to complete the Proposed Transaction may not be satisfied, Korro may not realize the expected benefits of the Proposed Transaction, or it may uncover liabilities following consummation of the Proposed Transaction that it had not anticipated. • The shares acquired in the proposed private placement transaction will be subject to registration with the SEC, and upon registration, the share price may be volatile due to a variety of factors, such as changes in the competitive environment in which it operates, the regulatory framework of the industry in which it will operate, developments in its business and operations and changes in its capital structure.
