Forward looking statements
Forward looking statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All
statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this presentation are forward-looking
statements. Examples of such statements include our expectation regarding the FDA having a favorable
view
of
the
Intermezzo
®
residual
effect
profile;
the
sufficiency
of
the
Intermezzo
®
NDA
to
gain
FDA
approval;
that
Intermezzo
®
will
become
the
first
prescription
sleep
aid
indicated
for
use
in
the
middle
of
the
night
and
the
first
strongly
differentiated
insomnia
treatment
strategy
since
Ambien
®
launch;
the
potential
market
size
for
a
middle
of
the
night
sleep
aid;
plans
to
commercialize
Intermezzo
®
under
favorable
market
conditions
through
the
Purdue
collaboration
and
the
receipt
by
Transcept
of
payments
from
Purdue
thereunder;
reimbursement
coverage
for
Transcept
product
candidates;
intellectual
property
protection
being
obtained
and
maintained
for
Transcept
product
candidates;
and
plans
to
begin
a
Phase 2
study
of
TO-2061
in
Q1
2011
and
report
results
therefrom
in
H1
2012.
Transcept
may
not
actually meet
these expectations and carryout these plans. Various important factors that could cause actual events to
differ materially from such forward-looking statements include FDA deemed insufficiencies in
our
Intermezzo
®
NDA
resubmission,
competitive
product
commercialization;
adverse
patent
decisions
at
the
USPTO
or
in
court;
the
willingness
of
Purdue
to
commercialize
Intermezzo
®
and
its
ability
to
do
so
successfully;
payer
opinion
of
Intermezzo
®
,
if
approved;
dependence
on
third
parties
to
manufacture,
and
carry-out
the
planned
study
of
TO-2061,
and
variability
in
the
business
of
Transcept
generally.
These
and
other
risks
are
described
in
greater
detail
in
the
"Risk
Factors"
section
of
Transcept
periodic
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements do not reflect the
potential impact of any future in-licensing, collaborations, acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint
ventures,
or
investments
Transcept
may
enter
into
or
make.
Transcept
does
not
assume
any
obligation
to
update any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.

No product currently indicated for prn

No product currently indicated for prn
treatment at the
time of a middle of the night awakening
MOTN awakenings typically do not occur every night
7-8 hr sleep aids (Ambien
®
, Ambien
CR

, Lunesta

) require
bedtime prophylactic dosing to prevent awakenings
An ideal therapeutic would:
Be used only at the time patients need help returning to sleep,
not every night in advance of a problem that may not occur
Return patients to sleep rapidly
Use a low dose to avoid next day residual effects

NDA resubmission


FDA Complete Response Letter (October 2009) and
subsequent discussions
FDA Complete Response Letter (October 2009) and
subsequent discussions
FDA indicated Transcept
has submitted substantial evidence
of
effectiveness
for
Intermezzo
®
in
its
intended
indication
FDA
recognized
that
the
Intermezzo
®
Phase
3
data
did
not
indicate significant next morning residual effects at 4 hrs
However, given the unique MOTN indication, FDA requested:
additional data on next morning driving effects
demonstration that inadvertent dosing errors can be minimized,
or that the consequences of such errors are acceptable
inadvertent re-dosing in a single night
inadvertent dosing with < 4 hrs of bedtime remaining
arguments against the conduct of an in-use study

Note: The cross study comparisons reflected above should be viewed with caution. Cross study meta-analyses are subject to interpretational and other risks due 
to a number of factors, including unaccounted for variables that may render comparisons difficult or invalid, and potential inconsistencies in methods of 
normalizing study results.  Additional studies from the Brookhuis publication reflecting data from drugs not approved in the United States are not reflected above.  
The above collection of studies is not presented as a complete presentation of highway driving studies analyzing hypnotic drugs approved in the United States.
