Safe Harbor Statement
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to be materially different from historical results or
from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding future clinical trial activity for IPI-504 and IPI-493; the presentation of
clinical data for IPI-504 and IPI-493; the filing of an IND for IPI-940; estimates of 2009 financial performance; the continuation of the
Purdue/Mundipharma
alliance
and
the
exercise
of
warrants
held
by
Purdue,
and
the
expectation
that
Infinity
will
have
capital
to
support its current operating plan into 2013.
Such forward-looking statements are subject to numerous factors, risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events or results to
differ materially from the company's current expectations. For example, there can be no guarantee that Infinity’s strategic alliance
with
Purdue/Mundipharma
will
continue
for
its
expected
term
or
that
these
entities
will
fund
Infinity’s
programs
as
agreed,
or
that
any
product candidate Infinity is developing will successfully complete necessary preclinical and clinical development phases. In addition,
Infinity’s expectations could be affected by risks and uncertainties relating to: results of clinical trials and preclinical studies,
including subsequent analysis of existing data and new data received from ongoing and future studies; the content and timing of
decisions made by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory authorities, investigational review boards at clinical
trial sites, and publication review bodies; Infinity's ability to enroll patients in its clinical trials; unplanned cash requirements and
expenditures; market acceptance of any products Infinity or its partners may successfully develop; and Infinity's ability to obtain,
maintain and enforce patent and other intellectual property protection for any product candidate it is developing.
These
and
other
risks
which
may
impact
management's
expectations
are
described
in
greater
detail
under
the
caption
"Risk
Factors"
included in Infinity's quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in November 2009.
Further, any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation speak only as of the date hereof, and Infinity expressly
disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.

Hsp90 chaperone inhibition:
A new
angle
for targeting oncoproteins

Hsp90 chaperone
stabilizes
oncoprotein,
enabling growth
signaling and tumor
cell proliferation
Inhibit Hsp90 and
oncoproteins become
unstable, unfolded, and
unable to signal
Unfolded oncoproteins
will then be degraded
rapidly, arresting tumor
cell growth
Currently, targeted
therapies inhibit
oncoproteins in
distinctly different ways
that do not affect the
critical function of
Hsp90

Hedgehog Program

The Hedgehog
pathway:
A promising new focus for targeted drug therapy
14
14
The Hedgehog (Hh) pathway is
not active in most adult cells
Smoothened (Smo)  --
which
can promote growth of certain
cancers –
is held in an inactive
state by Patched (Ptc)
Gli
transcription factors do not
enter the nucleus to promote
transcription
Malignant activation of the Hedgehog pathway may be implicated in many
insidious cancers including pancreatic, ovarian, small cell lung, breast, brain,
and basal cell (skin) cancers
