Edit the Message, Rewrite the Future January 2024 1
Disclaimers Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this
Presentation may constitute “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, express or implied statements regarding expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies of Korro Bio, Inc.
(Korro) regarding the future including, without limitation, express or implied statements regarding: Korro’s RNA editing technology and the benefits of OPERA; the market opportunity for KRRO-110 and potential benefits over other alpha-1
anti-trypsin deficiency (AATD) modalities; the potential of KRRO-110 to be a best-in-class drug candidate for AATD; the potential safety and efficacy of KRRO-110; Korro’s expected cash runway and plans for discovery and preclinical studies, as
well as clinical trials, including timing of regulatory filings and data readouts and other developments or results in connection therewith. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future
events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” continue,” “ could,” “estimate,” “ expect,” “
intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “ should,” “ strive,” “would,”
“aim,” “target,” “commit,” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that statement is not forward looking. Forward-looking statements are based
on current expectations and assumptions that, while considered reasonable are inherently uncertain. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. Factors that may cause
actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, various factors beyond management’s control including risks inherent in biopharmaceutical development; risks associated with pre-clinical studies
and clinical trials; and other risks associated with obtaining regulatory approvals and protecting intellectual property; as well as risks associated with general economic conditions; the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the
recently completed merger, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, Korro’s ability to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain key employees; costs related to merger;
the possibility that Korro may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in Korro’s filings with the SEC, including in Exhibit 99.2 to its Current
Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 6, 2023, as such may be amended or supplemented by its other filings with the SEC. Nothing in this Presentation should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking
statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements in this Presentation, which speak only as of
the date they are made and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements herein. Korro does not undertake or accept any duty to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any
change in their expectations or in the events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. This Presentation does not purport to summarize all of the conditions, risks and other attributes of an investment in Korro. Industry
and Market Data Certain information contained in this Presentation relates to or is based on studies, publications, surveys and Korro’s own internal estimates and research. In this Presentation, Korro relies on, and refers to, publicly
available information and statistics regarding market participants in the sector in which Korro competes and other industry data. Any comparison of Korro to any other entity assumes the reliability of the information available to Korro. Korro
obtained this information and statistics from third-party sources, including reports by market research firms and company filings. In addition, all of the market data included in this Presentation involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and
there can be no guarantee as to the accuracy or reliability of such assumptions. Finally, while Korro believes its internal research is reliable, such research has not been verified by any independent source and neither Frequency nor Korro has
independently verified the information. Trademarks This Presentation may contain trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of other companies, which are the property of their respective owners. Solely for convenience, some of the
trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights referred to in this Presentation may be listed without the TM, SM © or ® symbols, but Frequency and Korro will assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, the rights of the
applicable owners, if any, to these trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights. 2
