INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Board of Managers of
Marathon Pharmaceutical Holdings, LLC:
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Emflaza Business (the “Business”) (a wholly owned business of Marathon Pharmaceutical Holdings, LLC), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, comprehensive loss, net parent company deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Business’ preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Business’ internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Emflaza Business as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As described in Note 1, the Emflaza Business’ financial statements have been derived from the financial statements and accounting records of Marathon Pharmaceutical Holdings, LLC. The carve-out financial statements include the allocation of certain assets, liabilities, expenses, and income that have historically

1


been held at the Marathon Pharmaceutical Holdings, LLC corporate level but which are specifically identifiable or attributable to the Emflaza Business.

EMFLAZA BUSINESS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016 AND 2015
(In thousands of dollars)

1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation—Marathon Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“Marathon”) develops specialty pharmaceuticals for high-need populations, including patients who have limited or no other treatment options. On March 16, 2017, Marathon entered into an asset sale agreement with PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (PTC) for all rights to Marathon’s product EmflazaTM (the “Company” or the “Emflaza Business”) contingent on customary closing procedures. This sale closed on April 20, 2017. Proceeds from the sale are comprised of up-front payments of $75 million in cash and $65 million in common shares of PTC, and contingent future sales-based milestone and royalty payments.
These financial statements present the results of the Emflaza Business, which consists of all resources, personnel and otherwise, devoted to the research, development, manufacture, distribution, sale, and use of Emflaza, including trademarks. EmflazaTM was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on February 9, 2017 for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy in patients 5 and older. EmflazaTM had not been commercialized during the periods reflected in these financial statements, as such no revenues have been allocated to the Emflaza Business.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a stand-alone basis and are derived from Marathon’s accounting records. The financial statements reflect the Emflaza Business’ historical financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Cash and cash equivalents held by Marathon were not allocated to the Emflaza Business. All intercompany transactions and accounts with Marathon have been eliminated. All intercompany transactions between Marathon and the Company are considered to be effectively settled in the financial statements at the time the transaction is recorded. The total net effect of the settlement of these intercompany transactions is reflected in the Statements of Cash Flows as a financing activity and in the balance sheets as net parent company deficit. These amounts have been reflected as an investment by Marathon as it was not intended that these amounts would be settled at any time.
The financial statements include allocations of expenses related to certain corporate functions, including management, legal, finance, human resource, information technology, risk management and unit-based compensation. These expenses have been allocated to the Emflaza Business based on direct usage or benefit where identifiable, with the remainder allocated on pro rata basis of headcount and other measures. Marathon considers the expense allocation methodology and results to be reasonable for all periods presented. However, the allocations may not be indicative of the actual expense that would have been incurred had the Emflaza Business been operated as an independent company for the periods presented.
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates—The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. These accounting principles require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that can affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial

8


statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the periods presented. Significant estimates include unit-based compensation expense and allocation of corporate expenses and liabilities. Actual amounts could differ materially from those estimates.
Research and Development Expenses—Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Payments due to third parties in connection with research and development collaborations prior to regulatory approval are expensed as incurred.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The financial statements include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, all of which are short term in nature and, accordingly, approximate fair value.
It is the Company’s policy, in general, to measure nonfinancial assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (such as evidence of impairment), which, if material, are disclosed in the accompanying footnotes.
Property and Equipment—Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. These costs are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets using the straight-line method. The Company depreciates leasehold improvements over the life of the respective leases or the service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Any gains and losses from the disposition of property and equipment are included in the results of operations as incurred. The following table shows estimated useful lives of property and equipment:
Description
Useful Life
 
 
Furniture and fixtures
  7 years
Computer equipment and software
  3 years
Leasehold improvements
  Lesser of asset life or remaining lease term

Income Taxes—Marathon is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. Income is allocated to members in accordance with the terms of Marathon’s operating agreement and is included in their individual income tax returns. Therefore, no liability or provision for federal income taxes has been allocated to the Emflaza Business’ financial statements.
Equity Awards—Certain employees of Marathon have been granted value appreciation rights (VARs) in an affiliated company, MP Investor, LLC (“Investor, LLC”), an entity with a 67% ownership interest in the parent of Marathon. Certain other employees of Marathon have been granted value appreciation rights and unit options in Marathon Pharmaceutical Holdings, LLC (“Holdings LLC”), the parent of Marathon. Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718—Compensation—Stock Compensation, specifies that awards of the parent company to employees of consolidated subsidiaries are reported as a compensation expense with an offset to capital contributions, provided no consideration is paid from the subsidiary to the parent. Marathon has not provided any consideration to Investor, LLC or Holdings, LLC for such awards.
Accordingly, compensation expense incurred by Marathon related to such awards has been allocated to the Emflaza Business’ statements of operations on a specific identification basis by recipient. The expense is allocated to the Emflaza Business based on the recipients’ level of support of the Emflaza Business (see Note 6—“Equity Awards”).
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock

9


Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU No. 2016-09 provides amended guidance that simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statements of cash flows. The new standard will become effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. Early adoption is permitted and the application of the guidance requires various transition methods depending on the specific amendment. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this amended guidance and the timing of adoption.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) which provides amended guidance to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new guidance clarifies the criteria for distinguishing between a finance lease and operating lease, as well as classification between the two types of leases, which is substantially unchanged from the previous lease guidance. Further, the new guidance requires a lessee to recognize in the statements of financial position, a liability to make lease payments (the “lease liability”) and a right-of-use asset, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. For finance leases, a lessee should recognize interest on the lease liability separately from amortization of the right-of-use asset. For operating leases, a lessee should recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term on a generally straight-line basis. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The new standard will become effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this amended guidance and the timing of adoption.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU No. 2016-15 provides specific guidance on eight cash flow issues where current guidance is unclear or does not include any specifics on classification, including contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and distributions received from equity method investees, among other items. The new standard will become effective for Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the financial statements and related disclosures.
