(Audio transcript of video to be played at investor day) Why do you trust and recommend Obagi products? [Prem Tripathi, MD: “The Obagi brand to me, is really about solidifying how science meets skincare.”] [Mark Craig, MD: “Obagi's scientific approach is really the reason that we have Obagi in our practice.”] [Ashish Bhatia, MD: “I recommend Obagi products to people because they actually work.”] [JoAn Monaco, MD, MS: “I feel that Obagi products differ from all the other skincare lines because Obagi is based in science.”] [Prem Tripathi, MD: “As doctors, we're very, very focused on evidence - based treatments, we want our patients to be happy, and there's just a lot of things on the market that don't deliver.”] [Mark Craig, MD: “Obagi products differ from just regular cosmetic products from the standpoint that they have that great name brand, they have the consistency of results. And the other thing is we're dealing with medical grade products, as opposed to just over the counter products that you really don't know what's been tried and tested.”] [JoAn Monaco, MD, MS: “The Obagi line has a remarkable team of scientists working on every product before it is even considered for launch… the fact that Obagi is based in science and tried true and tested, there couldn't be a better product line out there for my patients than the Obagi line.”] Why do you want to work with Obagi / why have you stayed with Obagi? [Nina Desai, DO: “We really depend on our companies to support us through our growth and through our clinical practice. So Obagi has been wonderful. I've been in practice for 12 years and have had Obagi in my clinic for that long. The reps, from the local reps down to the administrators, as far as the CEO, they're very responsive to the clinical practices and what we're needing from them, so I really appreciate that.”] [Prem Tripathi, MD: “We have our sales reps actually do trainings for all of our staff, especially when the staff is new, and that's really pivotal to get everybody on board and understanding the science behind the skincare products that we have. The other part of it is that, everyone gets to try products for themselves and then understand how it feels. And that for my staff is huge because they're not really going to really recommend a product unless they know how it looks and feels.”] [Mark Craig, MD: “not just with our estheticians, but in our practice, our entire staff is trained with Obagi and they've done that for us. They allow us to talk with patients. So each person in our practice can talk with a patient, explain to them about the products … So it's been an incredible partnership for 17 years for us.”] How have Obagi products changed your patients’ lives? [JoAn Monaco, MD, MS: “Having great skin leads to such self confidence. It's not just about what a surgeon like myself can do for a patient, but a person's skin, it's the first thing you see when they enter a room.”] [Nina Desai, DO: “And anytime you're looking good, you feel better from the inside and you just are more confident.”] [Ashish Bhatia, MD: “You know, cosmetics offer people an opportunity to take care of really the outfit they wear the most, right. Their skin. ”] [JoAn Monaco, MD, MS: “And after a week, two weeks, three weeks on Obagi, say for example, the Nu - Derm line, these patients are sending me photos of their skin that hasn't looked radiant in years. And so for me, that is an amazing reward about the Obagi line is that I haven't even touched these patient with the scalpel.”] [Nina Desai, DO: “I think our patients definitely see life changing results from the Obagi system in just a difference as with acne, with pigmentation... A lot of my patients have gone through multiple procedures, laser treatments, different things to get skin corrected and they'll come to me and they've never ironically never heard of Obagi and I'll put them on the system and they'll come back six weeks later and say, wow, I've spent all this money, and all it took was this skincare line.”] [Ashish Bhatia, MD: “Obagi products by themselves really deliver results … I'm really excited about Obagi's first device, this Skintrinsic, because it was really designed from the bottom up to be something that complimented the science and technology in their skincare, really taking it to the next level … So it cleanses the skin and then it delivers product and locks it in to the skin to really either take your regimen to the next level, or if you're just starting to, really boost your treatment and get it up and going … So this is really a true mark of a company that's innovative.”]

(Audio transcript of video to be played at investor day) [Prem Tripathi, MD: “I'm a facial plastic surgeon, and without a doubt, other than sunscreen, these are the only skin care ingredients that do anything. Believe it or not, this is not a plug or an ad for this brand. But there's a reason why the best studied skin care system on the planet with over 30 years of data, uses these key ingredients. First it's Hydroquinone and vitamin C. And if you're going to fight me on this one add a research paper to your comment. But either way, it is by far the best skin brightening agent. You could try other things like kojic acid, licorice and lots of other things, but this is by far the best one. Of course, the next one is tretinoin. I've talked about this one a lot, and your insurance will cover it sometimes. And don't get mad at me if you can't use this one, it is kind of irritating, but you could futz around with all the different retinols on the market, or you can go straight to tretinoin, which has the most data for it. The last ingredients are the ones that exfoliate your skin and get the products in better, think lactic acid, which is also part of this system. Yes, I have a ton of stuff, but it doesn't change the truth.”]

Prem Tripathi, MD 40 Our physician - first philosophy drives long - term productive relationships and loyalty Marketing support Nina Desai, DO Price & value - added services “OBAGI understands the financial issues that physicians face when running a practice. Given the quality of the products they manufacture, their price points are very reasonable. We appreciate their promotional incentives and can easily pass that value to our patients to encourage them to purchase.” Dr Craig Training & education Product innovation Ashish Bhatia, MD Inventory management & customer service Mark Craig, MD

 

(Audio transcript of video to be played at investor day) [Prem Tripathi, MD: “The support from Obagi has been really great. We have our sales reps actually do trainings for all of our staff, especially when the staff is new, and that's really pivotal to get everybody on board and understanding the science behind the skincare products that we have. The other part of it is that, everyone gets to try products for themselves and then understand how it feels. And that for my staff is huge because they're not really going to really recommend a product unless they know how it looks and feels. And if they don't like it, that's important for me to know too. So the Obagi system and the Obagi training is amazing for my practice.”] [Ashish Bhatia, MD: “I'm really excited about Obagi's first device, this Skintrinsic, because it was really designed from the bottom up to be something that complimented the science and technology in their skincare, really taking it to the next level. So this is really a true mark of a company that's innovative”] [Nina Desai, DO: “So, as far as the support is concerned, that's very big in our practice. We really depend on our companies to support us through our growth and through our clinical practice. So Obagi has been wonderful. I've been in practice for 12 years and have had Obagi in my clinic for that long. The reps, from the local reps down to the administrators, as far as the CEO, they're very responsive to the clinical practices and what we're needing from them, so I really appreciate that”] [Mark Craig, MD: “One of the things I think is in our practice with Obagi, that we get an incredible level of support, both at our representative level and higher up. We feel very confident with that. We have excellent support from them, excellent training. So our entire practice, not just our estheticians and myself are trained on Obagi.”]

The next frontier: introducing an additional OBAGI tool for the physicians to deliver transformative solutions for increased patient satisfaction 47

 

(Audio transcript of video to be played at investor day) [A new level of medical skincare is here, introducing the SKINTRINSIQ TM system, the first device designed by the skincare experts at Obagi. The surface layer of your skin is a protected barrier against debris, germs and sun damage, but it also keeps all the skincare products you depend on to help keep your skin looking vibrant and healthy. Other skincare devices remove a surface layer of your skin to bypass this barrier and apply products. The SKINTRINSIQ TM device is different, it relies on innovative pneumatic technology, a gentle vacuum that lifts your skin to open channels and the surface layer. Through these channels, impurity can be extracted, and products infused. Every SKINTRINSIQ TM treatment begins with soothing, cleansing and toning. Next, the unique SKINTRINSIQ TM hand piece is used to extract impurities. You can add optional blue or red LED light therapy for a variety of benefits without adding to your treatment time. After extraction, your customized SKINTRINSIQ TM treatment protocol is deeply infused. No matter your skincare needs, there’s a SKINTRINSIQ TM treatment that is right for you. Products are infused evenly and thoroughly for enhanced results. Simultaneous blue or red LED light can be added to the infusion phase of your treatment as well. When your infusion is over and the SKINTRINSIQ TM hand piece is removed, the channels and the surface layer of your skin close to lock in your Obagi products. The gentle experience and noticeable results of your SKINTRINSIQ TM treatment come with no down time. Dynamic infusion helps jump start the benefits of Obagi home skincare regimen. So you’ll be on your way to a radiant complexion even sooner. SKINTRINSIQ TM from Obagi, experience the next level of medical skincare.]

53 OBAGI Nu - Derm ® important safety information Important safety information for clear, blender and sunfader (contains 4% hydroquinone) CONTRAINDICATIONS: People with prior history of sensitivity or allergic reaction to this product or any of its ingredients should not use it. The safety of topical hydroquinone use during pregnancy or in children (12 years and under) has not been established. Please see Prescribing Information for Clear, Blender, and Sunfader . ( https://www.obagi.com/api/sites/default/files/2020 - 11/NuDerm - Clear - Blender - Sunfader - PI_0.pdf ) WARNINGS: Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, or lips. In case of accidental contact, patient should rinse eyes, nose, mouth, or lips with water and contact physician. Sunscreen use is an essential aspect of hydroquinone therapy because even minimal sunlight exposure sustains melanocytic activity. Contains sodium metabisulfite, a sulfite that may cause allergic - type reactions including anaphylactic symptoms and life - threatening or less severe asthmatic episodes in certain susceptible people. The overall prevalence of sulfite sensitivity in the general population is unknown and probably low. Sulfite sensitivity is seen more frequently in asthmatic than in nonasthmatic people. PRECAUTIONS (ALSO SEE WARNINGS): Treatment should be limited to relatively small areas of the body at one time since some patients experience a transient skin reddening and a mild burning sensation, which does not preclude treatment. Pregnancy Category C: Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with topical hydroquinone. It is also not known whether hydroquinone can cause fetal harm when used topically on a pregnant woman or affect reproductive capacity. It is not known to what degree, if any, topical hydroquinone is absorbed systemically. Topical hydroquinone should be used on pregnant women only when clearly indicated. Nursing Mothers: It is not known whether topical hydroquinone is absorbed or excreted in human milk. Caution is advised when topical hydroquinone is used by a nursing mother. Pediatric Usage: Safety and effectiveness in children below the age of 12 years have not been established. Use of the product should be discontinued if hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients is noted. ADVERSE REACTIONS: Side effects have been reported with the use of hydroquinone products, including but not limited to, skin rashes, swelling and ochronosis (skin discoloration). If these effects occur, use should be discontinued or adjusted. To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS contact FDA at fda.gov/medwatch or call 1 - 800 - FDA1088. Important safety information for Tretinoin INDICATION: Tretinoin Cream and Gels are indicated for topical application in the treatment of acne vulgaris. Important Safety Information: For Topical Use Only CONTRAINDICATIONS: Use of the product should be discontinued if hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients is noted. Please click here for full Prescribing Information ( https://www.obagi.com/api/sites/default/files/tretinoincream - pi.pdf ). Precautions: • Exposure to sunlight, including sunlamps, should be minimized during the use of Tretinoin Cream and Gel, and patients with sunburn should be advised not to use the product until fully recovered. • Patients who have considerable sun exposure due to occupation and those with inherent sensitivity to the sun should exercise particular caution. Use of sunscreen products and protective clothing over treated areas is recommended when exposure cannot be avoided. • Weather extremes, such as wind or cold, also may be irritating to patients using tretinoin. • Tretinoin Cream and Gel should be kept away from the eyes, the mouth, angles of the nose, and mucous membranes. Topical use may induce severe local erythema and peeling at the site of application. If the degree of local irritation warrants, patients should be directed to use the medication less frequently, discontinue use temporarily, or discontinue use altogether. • Tretinoin has been reported to cause severe irritation on eczematous skin and should be used with utmost caution in patients with this condition. Pregnancy: Tretinoin should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Adverse Reactions: The skin of certain sensitive individuals may become excessively red, edematous, blistered, or crusted. If these effects occur, treatment should be discontinued or adjusted to a level the patient can tolerate. To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS contact FDA at fda.gov/medwatch or call 1 - 800 - FDA - 1088.
