• Proprietary GPCR Technology – Orion has developed a novel approach and proprietary drug discovery platform (PROcisionXTM) designed to effectively target valuable GPCRs with industry leading efficiency.

• Strong Risk Mitigation - Orion’s platform technology provides the company with multiple “shots on goal” and its drug candidates can be monetized at early stages of development without being fully commercialized.

• Short-Term Return Potential - Orion has validated its technology and is poised to reach critical value inflection milestones over the next 12-24 months.

DEAL HIGHLIGHTS:

Dear Friends and Investors:

Please join us for a special IMEROPEX Private Investor Dinner on Tuesday, May 28 at 5:30 PM EST featuring IMEROPEX™.

This is for accredited investors and potential partners of the Company. IMEROPEX provides public and private crisis and risk managers with a Persistent Environment for Experimentation and Rehearsal (PEER) that immerses their operators in crisis action scenarios and then decomposes them to understand causality. The IMEROPEX service will help crisis managers anticipate risks while determining optimum mitigation strategies. IMEROPEX also advances the use of the patent pending Full Dive VR Units (FDVUs) that will give customers a multi-sensory experience almost indistinguishable from the real world. The Company is currently raising $1.5 million for product development and growth through the planning and execution of a pilot IMEROPEX event on School Safety

Key Investment Considerations

Huge Market

The market for crisis risk prediction and mitigation in both the public and private sectors is huge. IMEROPEX will intersect and shape the following global markets: the $8.1 Billion Crisis Management Insurance Market; $12.7 Billion modeling and simulation market; the $132.4 Billion Crisis Management Market; and the $22 Billion Virtual Reality Market. Target clients include public and private crisis/emergency managers; first responders; private security firms; and crisis management insurance brokers and underwriters. The IMEROPEX beachhead will be school safety—with an initial focus on Texas. But that beachhead will expand to other states and themes in the coming years.

Differentiators

The Company offers a fully immersive and integrated “Full Dive” VR experience provided by its Full Dive Virtual Reality Units (FDVUs). Google, Apple, Meta (Reality Labs), Microsoft, Unity, and other vendors are all developing and marketing selected VR system components such as headsets, treadmills, haptic gloves, body suits, and game engines but none are currently offering a fully immersive and integrated “Full Dive” VR experience. Multiple Federal Contractors and VR studios are also offering VR services for operational training, but very few provide VR as a service for risk analysis and crisis mitigation.

World Class Team

The IMEROPEX team includes software/hardware engineers, mathematicians, and medical professionals with over ten decades of VR development, modeling and simulation, and data science experience.

The Investment

IMEROPEX founder has invested $500,000 to date and is currently raising $1.5 million for product development and execution of a significant pilot event with a major customer. Minimum investment size is $100,000.

Investor Traction: IMEROPEX is a member of the Microsoft Startup Hub and has the equivalent of $200K in engineering support and Azure cloud credits. IMEROPEX also executed a term sheet and SOW with KiwiTech for collaborative development and has verbal commitments from two investors.

This is for ACCREDITED INVESTORS and Investment Advisors ONLY

Dear Friends and Investors:

Please join us for a special Private Investor Reception on Tuesday, May 21 at 5:30 PM EDT featuring MediMergent (the "Company"), a Real-World Data (RWD) and Evidence (RWE) company committed to humanizing healthcare by unifying patient engagement, proprietary digital technologies, and predictive analytics.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

We produce actionable RWE for diverse healthcare stakeholders through the collection, integration, analysis, and interrogation of multiple sources of RWD from the context of the patient. These sources include medical records, pharmacy and insurance data, laboratory and images, genomics, and importantly, information directly from the “Voice of the Patient”, unfiltered by any third party. Our solutions are utilized to manage diverse research designs that revolutionize product development and commercialization, increase value-based care for payers and providers, and generate insights for improved decision-making across the entire healthcare ecosystem.

We turn data into value through the deployment of AI-driven technologies including applications using synthetic virtual humans and biosensors. Advanced analytics applied to the disparate patient-centric data sources produce adjudicated, reliable, and truthful information that is collected across the healthcare product and service delivery life cycle. By putting the patient at the center of the narrative, our interoperability provides holistic 360-degree views capturing a range of human differences, geographies, diseases and treatment modalities.

Founded as an outgrowth of a long-term collaboration with the Food and Drug Administration, the Company is a mature start-up, revenue-generating, and profitable across the last two years. We have emerging customers from pharma, academia, health insurers/plans, and other healthcare service companies. The founders of our Company have developed ground-breaking therapies and technologies that enable healthcare stakeholders to deliver solutions that improve patients’ lives. Although multiple competitors offer segments of our digital solutions, to our knowledge, there are no competitors, at this time, that integrate all of our software, applications, and service components.

Our “secret sauce” is the development and deployment of virtual humans, customized to incorporate the physical characteristics of caregivers with whom they would feel most comfortable based on sex, age, race, and ethnicity. The AI-driven algorithms track facial expressions, perceived attitudes, comprehension, intent, and overall comfort with the interactions and make adjustments accordingly. Distribution of the data to pre-defined caregivers is managed by the patient via secure, HIPAA-compliant operating systems and procedures. MediMergent owns all of the Intellectual Property and the highly valuable data. Revenue is generated via fee-for-service, licensing of our applications, and subscription agreement for access to data.

FUND INFORMATION

The ASK: $3 million

Uses of Funds:

• Develop the platform from script-based to generative AI

• Conduct a pilot to validate technology

• Sign a minimum of 3 licensing agreements to commercialize the platform

• Expand development staff

NOTE: This Presentation/Reception is for Accredited Investors who can invest $250,000 and Investor Representatives only.

Subsidiaries are seeded with core IP licensed from BSD, staffed with vetted management, and capital is raised independently. Product partnerships are pursued with favorable license deals and unrestricted use of co-developed IP.

Key Highlights

· World-leading genetic engineering expertise and biotech industry experience.

· DNA-based technology = low MVP concept capex & high novel technology creation potential.

· “Seed IP” for subsidiaries aimed to cost $50,000 - $250,000.

· Subsidiaries and technologies are diversified across upstream & downstream platforms/products.

· Initial lower risk platforms & products provide a stable base for moonshot opportunities.

· Only $1.4M has led to the entirety of our existing portfolio:

· 2 active subsidiaries, 2 platforms, and 3 partnerships.

Opportunity

The biotech industry is notoriously risky and volatile. Despite appearances, it has also remained relatively stagnant technologically in the last two decades. This is in part due to a dearth of novel biotools platforms and incremental improvements in biomanufacturing technologies. This stagnation results largely from the industry’s focus on simple “monogenic” therapies that may treat single gene diseases rather than new technologies that can treat complex “multigenic” diseases that cause most death and hardship.

BioSolution Designs is actively engaged in creating new platforms and products for the biotools, biomanufacturing, and biotherapeutics markets focused on empowering a multigenic future. BSD’s hub and spoke model is designed to tackle several opportunities at once; maintaining cashflow and enabling diversification, while each technology is designed to compound with the rest of BSD’s portfolio – greatly decreasing costs and risks of development for new technologies.

Huge Market Potential:

BSD’s technologies are designed to take advantage of the Gene and Cell Therapy (GCT) Market subsets in biotools, biomanufacturing, and biotherapeutics markets. Each of these subsets are poised for massive growth in the next several decades:

GCT Biotools – $83B by 2030 (US only).

GCT Biomanufacturing – $50B by 2030 (US only).

G&C Therapies – $80B-$120B by 2030 with current technology trajectory.

The Investment

BSD is seeking to raise $2,000,000 on a $15,000,000 post-money valuation (min. investment $50,000).

Investor Returns

BSD is designed for long-term dividend distribution. Revenue streams into BSD come from 1) profit distribution from subsidiaries, 2) revenues from BSD-held licensable assets, 3) acquisitions of subsidiary assets or subsidiary entities, 4) acquisitions of BSD-held assets. BSD anticipates its first distributions within 2-4 years.

Dear Friends and Investors:

You are invited to an Accredited Investor-only dinner on Monday, January 15th at 5:30pm EST featuring IMEROPEX™ (the Company), which provides customers with a unique platform for experiencing and resolving crises in an alternate virtual reality (VR) to prevent or limit their occurrence in the real world.

The Company provides public and private crisis managers with a Persistent Environment for Experimentation and Rehearsal (PEER) that immerses their operators in crisis action scenarios and then decomposes them to understand causality. IMEROPEX also advances the use of the patent pending Full Dive VR Units (FDVUs) that will give customers a multi-sensory experience almost indistinguishable from the real world.

The Company is currently raising $1.5 million for product development and growth.

The Dinner will be held on Monday, January 15th at 5:30pm EST in McLean, VA and is for accredited investors and their advisors only.

Key Investment Considerations

Huge Market

The market for crisis risk prediction and mitigation in both the public and private sectors is huge. IMEROPEX products intersect and shape the following global markets: the $12.7 Billion modeling and simulation market; the $132.4 Billion Crisis Management Market; and the $22 Billion Virtual Reality Market. Target clients include public and private crisis/emergency managers; first responders; private security firms; and insurance underwriters. The IMEROPEX beachhead will be school safety—with an initial focus on Texas. But that beachhead will expand to other states and themes in the coming years.

Differentiators

The Company offers a fully immersive and integrated “Full Dive” VR experience provided by its Full Dive Virtual Reality Units (FDVUs). Google, Apple, Meta (Reality Labs), Microsoft, Unity, and other vendors are all developing and marketing selected VR system components such as headsets, treadmills, haptic gloves, body suits, and game engines but none are currently offering a fully immersive and integrated “Full Dive” VR experience. Multiple Federal Contractors and VR studios are also offering VR services for operational training, but very few provide VR as a service for risk analysis and crisis mitigation.

World Class Team

The IMEROPEX team includes software/hardware engineers, mathematicians, and scenario developers with over ten decades of VR development, modeling and simulation, and data science experience. safety—with an initial focus on Texas.

The Investment

IMEROPEX has raised $450,000 to date and is currently raising $1.5 million for product development and execution of a significant pilot event with a major customer. Minimum investment size is $100,000.

Investor Traction: IMEROPEX is a member of the Microsoft Startup Hub and has the equivalent of $200K in engineering support and Azure cloud credits.

This is for ACCREDITED INVESTORS and Investment Advisors ONLY

Dear Friends and Investors:

Please join us for a special virtual private investor meeting on Friday, December 1st at 11:00 AM EST featuring American Gene Technologies International (“AGT”), one of the most exciting companies we have seen.

AGT recently announced a merger agreement for a business combination with 10X Capital Venture Acquisition Corp. III (“10X III”) (NYSE American: VCXB), a special purpose acquisition company. The resulting combined company will be renamed “Addimmune” and will trade on the NYSE. Addimmune will be a clinical-stage gene and cell therapy company focused on developing a functional cure for HIV. Prior to the combination, the non-HIV assets will spin-off into an entity that will retain the American Gene Technologies name.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Addimmune will be dedicated to revolutionizing treatments for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), a disease which currently impacts 5 million individuals across the US and Europe. Addimmune's lead treatment, AGT103-T, is a genetically modified autologous cell product candidate that has the potential to be the first functional cure and a potential best-in-class adjuvant treatment for HIV.

COMPANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS

AGT's HIV business has made significant strides to advance AGT103-T as the world’s first potential functional cure for HIV. Beginning with a collaboration with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease in 2019, the team has made consistent progress from securing FDA approval of an Investigational Drug Application for and completing a Ph 1a safety and durability study of AGT103-T in 2022. The full data from the Ph 1a study was published in Frontiers in Medicine. Additionally, the team recently shared the pre-print of a follow-on analytic treatment interruption study, which evaluated the impact on HIV-specific immune responses in AGT103-T-infused patients following the cessation of antiretroviral therapy (ART). AGT is currently in the process of submitting those results to a peer-reviewed journal.

FUNDRAISING

AGT is raising up to $50 million through the issue and sale of senior secured convertible notes ("Convertible Note"). The Convertible Note features a 3x liquidation preference and a 36-month maturity period and may be purchased by all accredited investors.

USE OF FUNDS

The Convertible Note financing will be instrumental in initiating the Ph 1b study of AGT103-T, expanding HIV research initiatives, and expediting Addimmune's journey toward potential regulatory approval.

TARGET MARKET

We firmly believe that cell and gene therapy has the potential to disrupt the forthcoming $39.3 billion global HIV therapy market, where currently, payors are investing up to $1.7 million per patient in life-long standard care. Be part of the transformation.

Please join us to learn more about this exciting investment opportunity and exciting technology! If you have any questions or would like any information, such as Executive Summary or Deck, prior to the meeting, please email Skylar Rallison at srallison@opus8.com.

Thanks much and we look forward to seeing you online on December 1st!

All the best,

The Opus8 Team
