A Dose Selection Study of Efficacy and Safety of Different Doses of Grass MATA MPL and Grass MATA Using Mobile EECs

This study will be conducted outside the grass pollen season and is comprised of five
periods.

- Period 1: Screening visit

- Period 2: Eligibility and baseline symptom assessments in the mobile environmental
exposure chamber (mEEC™)

- Period 3: Six treatment visits, during which the study drug will be injected

- Period 4: Post-treatment efficacy assessments in the mEEC™

- Period 5: Safety follow-up

Period 1 is the screening visit (Visit 1), and will occur 3 to 28 days before Visit 2.

Period 2 includes the pre-randomization, grass pollen exposure visits, which consist of four
3 hour sessions in the mEEC™ (Visits 2, 3, 4 and 5) during which patients will be exposed to
grass pollen and record nasal and non nasal symptoms using electronic diaries (electronic
Patient Data Acquisition Tablet: ePDAT™) prior to entry and every 30 minutes post entry into
the mEEC™. Patients will attend mEEC™ visits on consecutive days. To be eligible for
randomization and proceed to Treatment (Period 3), patients must achieve the following by the
final pre treatment mEEC™ (Visit 5):

- Minimum qualifying Total Symptom Score (TSS) of at least 12 out of a possible 24 on at
least one exposure using ePDAT™

- Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) of at least 7 out of a possible 12 using ePDAT™

- Runny nose score of at least 2 out of 3 on at least two time points.

Period 3 includes the six treatment visits (Visit 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11). After each
injection, patients will be kept under observation by personnel qualified to manage systemic
allergic reactions at the site for at least 30 minutes. This period can be extended by the
investigator in response to injection site or systemic allergic reactions. The observation
will be followed up by a telephone call approximately 24 hours later.

Period 4 consists of four 3 hour sessions (Visits 12, 13, 14 and 15) in the mEEC™ during
which patients will be exposed to grass pollen and record post-treatment TSSs using the
ePDAT™ as in Period 2.

Period 5 consists of an End of Study (EOS) safety follow-up visit (Visit 16) between 2 and 14
days after the last EEC visit. A telephone follow-up will be made at approximately 3, 6, and
12 months following the last injection with detailed enquiry with regard to expected and
non-expected AEs, with special attention to New Onset Autoimmune Disorders (NOAD) and
Neuro-inflammatory (NI) disease. For subjects who withdraw early, similar follow up will be
done at approximately 1, 3, 6, and 12 months following the last injection.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Aged 18 to 50 years inclusive

2. Allergy to grass pollen allergen, defined by:

1. A history of moderate to severe symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis and/or
conjunctivitis due to grass pollen exposure that required repeated use of
antihistamines, nasal steroids, and/or leukotriene modifiers for relief of
symptoms, confirmed by the patient record if available.

2. A positive skin prick test for grass pollen allergen (wheal (longest diameter) of
≥ 5 mm greater than the negative control after skin prick testing) at Visit 1.

3. Specific IgE for grass pollen as documented by a specific IgE immunoassay, or
equivalent test, with class ≥ 2 to grass pollen mix. Results from tests conducted
under a generalized screening protocol within the past six months may be used and
will not need to be repeated at V1 provided a copy of the test results is added
to the source file.

3. Positive skin prick test to histamine (wheal (longest diameter) ≥ 3 mm greater than
the negative control)

4. Negative skin prick test to the negative control (redness with wheal ≤ 2 mm is
acceptable)

5. For asthmatic patients: Forced expiratory volume (FEV) in 1 second (FEV1) ≥ 80% of
National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) predicted, with a
FEV1/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) ratio ≥ 70%

6. Obtain the minimum qualifying symptom scores by the final pre treatment EEC visit to
be enrolled into the study. Minimum qualifying TSS is at least 12 out of a possible 24
on at least one recording time, a TNSS score of at least 7 out of a possible 12 on at
least one recording time, and a rhinorrhea score of at least 2 on at least two diary
cards.

7. Observe the drug washout times for antihistamines, steroids etc. as specified in the
protocol prior to screening (Visit 1). The use of other medications will be permitted
if they are not expected to interfere with the ability of the patient to participate
in the study and provided they have been on a stable regimen (i.e., the same dosage
and administration) for six weeks prior to screening

8. Males or non pregnant, non lactating females who are:

1. Post menopausal (defined as at least 12 months natural spontaneous amenorrhea or
at least 6 weeks following surgical menopause, i.e. bilateral oophorectomy)

2. Naturally or surgically sterile (hysterectomy; bilateral oophorectomy; bilateral
tubal ligation with surgery at least 6 weeks prior to study initiation)

3. Of childbearing potential - with negative urinary and serological pregnancy test
and use at least one of the following contraception methods:

i. Stable hormonal contraceptive for ≥ 90 days prior to Visit 1 and for at least 7
days after the final injection. If < 90 days prior to the study, additional use of a
double barrier method until 90 days reached is required.

ii. Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system iii. Use of
barrier methods of contraception (e.g., condom or occlusive cap) with spermicidal
foam/gel/film/cream/suppository iv. Use of double barrier methods of contraception
(e.g., male condom with diaphragm, male condom with cervical cap) v. Male
sterilization with the appropriate post vasectomy documentation of the absence of
sperm in the ejaculate of the sole partner vi. True abstinence, when in line with the
preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient; periodic abstinence, such as calendar,
ovulation, symptothermal, post ovulation methods, and withdrawal are not acceptable
methods of contraception.

history, physical examination and routine laboratory tests.

10. Willing and able to give written informed consent.

11. Able to understand and comply with study instructions.
