Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties, including
among other things, statements about:
our planned development, commercialization and manufacturing plans, timelines and strategies for
tivozanib;
the potential therapeutic advantages and benefits of tivozanib and our other product candidates;
the timing and results of our ongoing and planned preclinical studies and clinical trials;
the potential benefits of our strategic partnership agreements, including our agreement with Astellas, our
ability to achieve additional payments under these arrangements and our ability to enter into additional
arrangements;
our
plans
to
leverage
our
Human
Response
Platform™
to
inform
clinical
development;
our intellectual property position and strategies;
the expected RCC market and potential of tivozanib to obtain regulatory approval and enter this market;
our projections with respect to our achievement of corporate milestones, including our anticipated plans
for success in the oncology markets; and
AVEO having sufficient capital to fund its operations through 2013 and AVEO’s estimates for 2012
expected yearend cash balance and cost savings from its strategic restructuring.
Actual
results
or
events
could
differ
materially
from
the
plans,
intentions
and
expectations
disclosed
in
the
forward-
looking
statements
we
make
due
to
a
number
of
important
factors,
including
risks
and
uncertainties
relating
to:
our
ability to successfully develop, test and gain  regulatory approval of our product candidates, including  regulatory
approval of tivozanib to treat advanced RCC; our ability to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property rights;
competition; our dependence on our alliance partners and other third parties; our ability to obtain necessary
financing;
adverse
economic
conditions;
and
those
risk
factors
discussed
in
the
“Risk
Factors”
and
elsewhere
in
our most recent Form 10-Q and other periodic filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  All
forward-looking statements contained in this presentation speak only as of the date of this presentation, and we
undertake no obligation to update any of these statements, except as required by law.
