the use of data analytics for disease identification and subsequent therapeutic intervention through precision therapeutic

through the commercialization of industry-leading breakthroughs in both genetics and cellular therapy,” said Senator Hatch.
“Predictive’s approach to precision medicine holds the promise of offering tremendous relief to those suffering from chronic
ailments and debilitating pain. I have witnessed the pain and suffering of endometriosis at a personal level as it has impacted my
family. I look forward to working toward achieving the company’s goals.”
Senator Hatch is an attorney and retired politician who served as a U.S. Senator from Utah for 42 years. First elected in 1976,

“Similar to Senator Hatch, my family has had personal experience with the chronic pain and suffering of endometriosis,” said Mr.
Barhorst. “Having had the opportunity to work with Predictive or its predecessor companies for close to a decade, I am deeply
committed to the company’s mission and team. I’m accepting a position on Predictive’s board of directors to represent all
stakeholders, including those suffering from diseases such as endometriosis.”
