Dear Mr von Halem

The excerpts from the valuation model provided below outline our considerations utilizing a risk-adjusted Net Present Value approach (rNPV). Our analysis relies heavily on the examination of documents supplied by Xlife Sciences AG and its project companies, along with various interviews and on-site visits. It's important to note that Cylad has not conducted a due diligence or specific audits as part of this process.

Our work has been completed as of the date of issue of this report. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions regarding this assignment or for further assistance.
