Irreversible Inhibitors Have a History of Medical Success Notable Irreversible Inhibitors • Aspirin was the first commercialized irreversible drug Aspirin Osimertinib (TAGRISSO) Penicillin • Notable precision oncology and infectious disease programs leverage irreversible mechanisms - Precision Oncology: Osimertinib and Ibrutinib both target kinases and are used in subpopulations with specific genetic biomarkers - Antivirals: Sofosbuvir and Tenofovir both target reverse transcriptases and are leveraged to treat HCV and HIV Ibrutinib (IMBRUVICA) Tenofovir (VIREAD) Sofosbuvir (SOVALDI) 7
Important Attributes of Irreversible Small Molecule Inhibition Greater Deep Target Therapeutic High Selectivity Inactivation Window Irreversible inhibitors Irreversible inhibitors Irreversible inhibitors • can cause permanent • are designed to maintain an • two-step inhibition: 1) requires inactivation of bound protein effect without sustained initial reversible binding systemic exposure, unlike followed by 2) covalent conventional reversible drugs, interaction, which increases • can drive target elimination which typically need to be target selectivity through normal cellular present to provide benefit degradation processes • Greater ligand efficiency provides high selectivity and • Uncoupling of drug effects from • can trigger rapid apoptosis or potency without jeopardizing drug exposure can potentially differentiation into normal, pharmaceutical properties enable lower drug dosing or less mature cells frequent dosing regimens vs. reversible approaches 8
Benefits of Covalent Irreversible Inhibition Irreversible inhibitors facilitate prolonged target occupancy effect, without prolonged systemic exposure Example: Ibrutinib, an Irreversible Inhibitor with Long Kinetic Half Life and Short Biologic Half Life PK/PD • Ibrutinib has a short biologic half life of Long Kinetic Half Life ~4-6 hrs but prolonged receptor % Active-Site Occupancy (left axis) occupancy indicates irreversible BTK Inhibition at cancer sites • Ibrutinib rapidly achieved high receptor Short Biologic Half Life Plasma concentration (right axis) occupancy, sustained for over 24 hours, reflects systemic exposure to body without constant systemic exposure • Reversible inhibitors often require constant systemic exposure to maintain occupancy and reach IC , thereby 90 potentially limiting tolerability 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 Systemic Exposure Receptor Occupancy 9 BTK: Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (ng/ml)

BMF-219 Demonstrated Rapid and Near Complete Reduction of Expression of Oncogenes Gene Expression Changes in AML cells following treatment w/ BMF-219 (0.500µM dose) • Irreversible inhibitor, BMF-219, downregulates expression of Menin (via the target MEN1 gene) and critical leukemogenic genes (e.g. MEIS1 and @6 hours HOXA9) - MEIS1 is a gene that can be an accelerator of leukemic transformation (along with HOXA9) - HOXA9 is a gene involved in myeloid differentiation and can be leukemogenic - DNMT3A is a gene that codes for a methyltransferase, which can be leukemogenic when mutated @24 hours • BMF-219 demonstrated up to 80% reduction in readout genes by 6 hours and approximately (Transcripts per Million is a measure of gene expression) 90%+ reduction at 24 hours 15

BMF-219 Has the Potential to Impact Important Binding Partners Involved in Multiple Tumors Mechanism of Action Target Patient Population MLL • MLL-r Acute Leukemia HOXA9/ NPM1 MEIS1 BMF-219 covalent binding to NPM1 • NPM1 mutant Acute Leukemia menin disrupts menin-MLL protein-protein interaction, MYC • DHT / DEL DLBCL resulting in global change of function • Multiple Myeloma MYC Menin • KRAS mutant (CRC, Lung, Pancreatic) MLL Other • Liquid and Solid Tumors Other Resulting change of function of menin impacts BMF-219 has the potential to address additional important binding partners involved in oncogenesis patient populations that are dependent on menin or some of its binding partners 18
Acute Leukemia, DLBCL, MM, & Other Tumor Types Have High Menin Dependency Based on Broad Institute DEPMAP Dataset BROAD Institute Cancer Dependency Map (DEPMAP) for Menin (MEN1) • Cell viability scores have shown that menin plays a key role in survival of multiple tumors • High menin dependency in liquid and solid tumors, beyond acute leukemias, provides rationale for further analysis in dependent tumor types • Biomea is exploring the potential for irreversible inhibition of menin in a variety of liquid and solid tumor types Note: CERES MENIN Dependency scores less than -1 in various tumor types imply that menin is considered essential for cell survival in those tumor types 19
