Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements in this presentation that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, among other things, the timing for initiation of clinical trials of PRS-220, whether PRS-220 will provide a clinical benefit in the treatment of IPF and PASC-related fibrosis, whether the combination of cinrebafusp alfa with other therapies could address a high medical need in HER2 gastric cancer patients who do not respond to traditional HER2-targeted therapies; whether the effects of the combination of cinrebafusp alfa with other therapies seen in preclinical studies will be observed in clinical trials; whether data from patients enrolled to date will be sufficient to inform the recommended phase 2 dose for the Company's planned proof of concept study of cinrebafusp alfa in gastric cancer; the expected timing and potential outcomes of the reporting by the Company of key clinical data from its programs, references to novel technologies and methods and our business and product development plans, including the Company's cash resources, the advancement of our proprietary and co-development programs into and through the clinic and the expected timing for reporting data, making IND filings or achieving other milestones related to our programs, including PRS- 060/AZD1402, cinrebafusp alfa, PRS-344, and PRS-352 and the expected timing of the initiation of the next stage of cinrebafusp alfa's development in gastric cancer. Actual results could differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements due to numerous factors. Such factors include, among others, our ability to raise the additional funding we will need to continue to pursue our business and product development plans; the inherent uncertainties associated with developing new products or technologies and operating as a development stage company; our ability to develop, complete clinical trials for, obtain approvals for and commercialize any of our product candidates, including our ability to recruit and enroll patients in our studies; our ability to address the requests of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; competition in the industry in which we operate; delays or disruptions due to COVID-19; and market conditions. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this presentation, and we assume no obligation to update the forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Investors should consult all of the information set forth herein and should also refer to the risk factor disclosure set forth in the reports and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission available at www.sec.gov, including without limitation the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. 2

IPF: High Unmet Medical Need and Significant Commercial Opportunity people affected worldwide with increasing global incidence, with ~130K affected in the US each year1,2 3 to 5 million mean survival from the time of diagnosis2 2 to 5 years current market in sales>$3B 13 1 – Glassberg, AJMC 2019 2 - Meltzer, Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases 2008 Martinez, Nature Rev Dis Primer, 2017 IPF is a chronic, progressive, and ultimately fatal lung disease of unknown cause characterized by chronic lung inflammation and progressive scarring (fibrosis) of the tissues between the alveoli of the lung Currently approved treatments provide modest benefit, in addition to having side effects that require management


 
CTGF: Clinically Validated Intervention for IPF • Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), or CCN2, a protein localized in the extracellular matrix, is a driver of fibrotic remodeling as consequence of an aberrant wound healing process • Over-expression of the protein in lung tissue is observed in patients suffering from IPF • Competitor clinical data indicate inhibition of CTGF reduces the decline in lung function among patients with IPF • Competitor compound requires high- dose infusions to effectively target lung- resident CTGF 14 (Lipson, Fibrogenesis & Tissue Repair, 2012) CTGF affects multiple signaling pathways and processes important in pathophysiology. CTGF interacts with a variety of molecules, including cytokines and growth factors, receptors and matrix proteins. These interactions alter signal transduction pathways, either positively or negatively, which results in changes in cellular responses.


 
PRS-220: Inhaled Solution The only CTGF inhibitor in clinical trials for IPF is a monoclonal antibody administered by IV infusion, 30 mg/kg every three weeks The objective of PRS-220 is to more efficiently engage a clinically validated target via oral inhalation directly to the lung epithelium and interstitium Benefits of inhaled administration: • Inhaled administration eliminates the need for additional clinic visits required for systemic drug administration • Direct administration into the lungs may result in more efficient CTGF inhibition in the site of the disease • Patients with IPF frequently take inhaled medications and thus no additional training required • This approach supports add-on to SOC, whereas patients on SOC are excluded from current studies of reference mAb 15


 
Grant From Bavarian Government to Support Program Acceleration and Evaluation of Efficacy in PASC-PF approximately 14 million euro grant from the Bavarian government for the research and development of PRS-220 for post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) pulmonary fibrosis (PASC-PF) 16 ~$17M • Allow Pieris to accelerate development of the program – IND planned 2022 • Support clinical-readiness activities and initial clinical development for the program, including GLP tox studies, GMP manufacturing, and phase 1 clinical development • Broaden scope of the program beyond the original IPF indication by including the evaluation of PRS-220 for the treatment of post-COVID-19-related pulmonary fibrosis Grant will:

Cinrebafusp Alfa – Biomarkers


 
Soluble 4-1BB (s4-1BB): Blood-based Biomarker of Cinrebafusp Alfa Engagement 47 • s4-1BB is an alternatively spliced form of 4-1BB receptor lacking the transmembrane encoding exon (Setareh et al., 1995; Shao et al., 2008) • s4-1BB is released by leukocytes in an activation-dependent manner (Michel et al., 2000; Salih et al., 2001; Schwarz et al., 1996) • s4-1BB is produced with a slightly delayed kinetic to pathway activation. Hypothesized role is as a negative regulator, keeping 4-1BB-mediated co-stimulation in check s4-1BB utility as a pathway specific biomarker provides ability to track cinrebafusp target engagement and activity using serum samples


 
Cinrebafusp Alfa – Phase II Rationale


 
Scientific Rationale for Combining Cinrebafusp Alfa & SoC 49 • Reduces tumor bulk • Releases antigen • Improves T cell : tumor target ratio Paclitaxel – Chemotherapy • Normalizes vascularization • Alters tumor barrier to T cell penetration • Reduces Tregs & inhibits TAMs Ramucirumab – Anti-Angiogenic1-3 • Increases T cell survival and metabolic fitness in the TME • Induces T cell memory • Drives T cell expansion • Induces anti-tumor cytolytic activity Cinrebafusp Alfa – 4-1BB Agonist 1 - Allen et al., Science Translational Medicine 2017 2 - Juang et al. Front Immunology 2018 3 - Tada et al., Journal for Immunotherapy of Cancer 2018


 
Scientific Rationale for Combining Cinrebafusp Alfa & Tucatinib 50 • Upregulates or stabilizes tumor cell surface HER2 expression2,3,4 • Increases clustering potential of cinrebafusp alfa on tumor cells to drive enhanced 4-1BB cross-linking Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (tucatinib) • Inhibits HER2 signaling AND activates tumor-specific T cells in tumor microenvironment Cinrebafusp Alfa – Dual MoA • Enhances inhibition of HER2 signaling by concurrent binding to HER2 on the tumor cell surface and TKI inhibition of the internal kinase signaling domain1 • In vitro, combination leads to significantly increased T cell activation in the presence of HER2-Low cell lines Complements Both MoAs 1 - Baselga J., Lancet, 2012; 2 - Maruyama T., et al, Anticancer Res., 2011 3 - Scaltriti M., et al, Oncogene, 2009 4 - Hartmans, et al, Oncotarget,, 2017
