Curetis and Acumen to Collaborate on

Unyvero Sepsis Test and ASEAN

Distribution

-Curetis
licenses Acumen’s proprietary sepsis biomarker panel for use with Unyvero Platform

-Diagnostics
Development (DxD) Hub in Singapore to support Acumen in development and clinical validation of the panel

-Acumen
to distribute Unyvero product line in ASEAN countries

Holzgerlingen, Germany Slagapore,
October 2015 Curetis AG, a developer of next-level molecular diagnostic solutions, today announced that it has obtained a world-wide,
non-exclusive license to AcuSept, a proprietary biomarker panel from Acumen Research Laboratories Pte Ltd. (Singapore). The panel
is in advanced clinical development and will be used by Curetis and Acumen for the joint development and clinical validation of
a sepsis host response test on the Unyvero Platform. Acumen’s activities in Singapore will be supported by NUS Enterprise
and the Diagnostics Development (DxD) Hub, a national initiative led by the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR),
which aims to accelerate diagnostics innovations into market-ready products.

Separately, Curetis and Acumen have
signed an exclusive, multi-year distribution agreement for the Unyvero product line in ASEAN markets, which will initially include
Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. The agreement, effective immediately, comprises Unyvero Systems and P55 and i60 ITI
Application Cartridges. Acumen will seek product registration in these markets. This agreement, through which Acumen will act as
a commercial hub for Curetis in the ASEAN markets, will complement the recently announced Greater China distribution partnership
between Curetis and Beijing Clear Biotech, giving Curetis a strong sales and marketing presence in Asia.

The AcuSept biomarker panel is designed
to accurately detect changes in a patient’s immune system indicative of pathogens in the blood stream and of a systemic inflammatory
response syndrome (SIRS) caused by these microorganisms. The presence of both SIRS and infections are the medical criteria for
sepsis, a severe disease with poor prognosis and an often fatal outcome: approximately 50% of people with severe sepsis and 80%
of people with septic shock die. With an estimated incidence of 26 million cases worldwide per year, sepsis is among the most frequent
severe medical conditions and a significant economic burden to the healthcare systems. A fast and clear distinction between patients
with sepsis and those who only have either infections or SIRS by appropriate tests is key to an effective therapy and survival.

“We are very impressed with Acumen’s
work on the AcuSept biomarker panel for sepsis host response,” said Oliver Schacht, PhD, CEO of Curetis. “We believe
that the panel has the potential to address shortcomings of other approaches for the early detection of sepsis, and believe that
a sepsis host response test on our Unyvero Platform will ideally complement our Unyvero Blood Culture test, which is currently
in development.”

“We are pleased to have won Acumen
as an exclusive distributor of our Unyvero Platform with currently marketed Application Cartridges in pneumonia and implant and
tissue infections for the ASEAN markets,” added Achim Plum, Chief Commercial Officer of Curetis. “With its in-depth
understanding of the clinical needs and the healthcare systems in these markets, Acumen is optimally positioned to develop the
ASEAN markets for us and help us establish an ASEAN commercial hub.”

“Sepsis progresses rapidly and
frequently comes with non-specific symptoms at an early stage. Accurate, quick and early diagnosis of a developing sepsis, however,
is an important prerequisite for fast and effective treatment,” said Siew Hwa Ong, PhD, CEO of Acumen, who is also an Adjunct
Professor at the National University of Singapore (NUS) Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. “Unyvero is ideally suited for the
AcuSept sepsis host response panel to enable the early and reliable segregation of patients who have sepsis from those who have
infections or inflammation only. Moreover, the distribution of Unyvero creates great synergies for us in building a market for
Unyvero that can be leveraged later for the fast adoption of the AcuSept test on the Unyvero Platform. This partnership is made
possible partly due to the DxD Hub’s support to Acumen in refining the technical and commercial strategy for the test, as
well as its continued commitment to support the subsequent clinical validation.”

“We are delighted that Acumen
is embarking on the next stage of its commercialization journey for its AcuSept technology,” said Sidney Yee, PhD,
CEO of the DxD Hub. “The strategic partnership between Acumen and Curetis underscores DxD Hub’s role as a critical
enabler for diagnostics solutions to reach the market quickly to deliver effective treatment outcomes for patients.”

Curetis expects to launch a sepsis host
response test in Europe in late 2017 at the earliest. The registration process for the current Unyvero Systems and Application
Cartridges in ASEAN countries is expected to take up to one year.

About the Unyvero Platform

The CE-marked Unyvero System is a versatile
hardware platform for the detection of a broad panel of bacteria, fungi and antibiotic resistance genes from a single sample in
one run. It processes a disposable Application Cartridge providing the necessary reagents to complete the analysis from sample
to result It is marketed in Europe, Russia, the Middle East and various other non-European countries. In the U.S., Curetis is running
a prospective multi-center clinical trial aimed at achieving FDA clearance registered here.

The platform enables the DNA-based testing
of all clinically relevant samples in a fully automated, unsupervised analysis process requiring only a few, quick manual preparation
steps. The analysis thus can be performed with minimal operator time and without the need of skilled staff or special infrastructure.

Thereby, clinically relevant information
is available within about four to five hours to support an informed therapy decision as early as possible.

The CE-marked Unyvero P55 Application
Cartridge focuses on pneumonia testing and simultaneously analyzes 40 DNA targets. The second CE-marked Unyvero i60 ITI Application
Cartridge for implant and tissue infections is also commercially available in Europe and is currently being evaluated in a prospective
European multi-center cohort study in prosthetic joint infections (EPJIC).

Application Cartridges for additional
indications are in various stages of development and preparation.
