Molecular Partners' current or future product candidates, including timing for the potential submission of emergency use authorization for ensovibep, expectations regarding timing for

reporting data from ongoing clinical trials or the initiation of future clinical trials, the potential therapeutic and clinical benefits of Molecular Partners' product candidates, the selection and development of future antiviral or other programs, and Molecular Partners' expected expenses and cash utilization for 2021 and that its current cash resources will be sufficient to fund its operations and capital expenditure requirements into H2 2023. These statements may be identified by words such as "anticipate", "believe", "could", "expect", "intend", "may", "plan", "potential", "will", "would" and similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements may contain these identifying words, and are based on Molecular Partners AG's current beliefs and expectations. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in such statements. Some of the key factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations include our plans to develop and potentially commercialize our product candidates; our reliance on third party partners and collaborators over which we may not always have full control; our ongoing and planned clinical trials and preclinical studies for our product candidates, including the timing of such trials and studies; the risk that the results of preclinical studies and clinical trials may not be predictive of future results in connection with future clinical trials; the timing of and our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals for our product candidates; the extent of clinical trials potentially required for our product candidates; the clinical utility and ability to achieve market acceptance of our product candidates; the potential impact of the COVID19 pandemic on our operations or clinical trials; our plans and development of any new indications for our product candidates; our commercialization, marketing and manufacturing capabilities and strategy; our intellectual property position; our ability to identify and in-license additional product candidates; the adequacy of our cash resources and our anticipated cash utilization; and other risks and uncertainties that are described in the Risk Factors section of Molecular Partners' Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 14, 2021 and other filings Molecular Partners makes with the SEC.

Structure and Features of Ensovibep Neutralizing the SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein

3D model of a DARPin molecule

Characteristics

HSA DARPins

DARPin 1

DARPin 2

Three individual and linked DARPins bind and block the Spike protein of the virus

DARPin 3

Spike Protein

  • High potency: high binding affinity and avidity leads to one of the highest anti-viral potencies reported to date
  • Pan-variantactivity: cooperative binding of different sites allows blocking of all described variants of concern, so far
  • Simple administration: long-half life, high solubility and low dose efficacy can allow for single administration via i.v., i.v. bolus, or s.c. injection
  • Supply: microbial manufacturing in E.coli

DARPin®, designed ankyrin repeat proteins; RBD, receptor binding domain; HSA, human serum albumin;

SARS-Cov-2, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.

      • Rapid antigen test positive
      • Un-vaccinatedand vaccinated patients
    • Met primary endpoint:
      • Significant reduction in viral load
    • Clinically relevant secondary endpoints include:
      • Reduction in risk of hospitalization and/or ER visits due to COVID-19, or deaths
      • Reduction in time to sustained clinical recovery
      • Safe and well-tolerated
  • Phase 1 results / status (48 healthy subjects):
    • Healthy volunteer safety trial
    • Half-lifeestablished: 2-3 weeks
    • i.v. infusion, i.v. bolus, s.c. injection
  • Phase 2 single-arm results (12 pts):
    • Patients, confirmed COVID positive, with symptoms
    • Validation of methods and approach
  • ACTIV-3Phase 3 interim results
    • Hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID
    • High dose of 600 mg tested in ~250 patients, stopped at futility analysis for lack of efficacy
    • Safe and well-tolerated (included in ensovibep safety database)
  • Novartis option exercise underway
