Together and with them, we walk into tonight’s event with $100,000 in hand. Our work is to meet or beat their gift — and so we will launch our Ten for Ten Chip Challenge during the live auction. We hope you will stay and help us attain our objective and help us Beat The CoPilot Bank! Dear Friends, It is with great pleasure and no small amount of amazement that we welcome you to the TENTH annual Morgan Adams Concours d’Elegance. When we embarked on this journey 10 years ago, Steven and Brett shared a vision to create an event that was unlike any other at the time – something that blended their passions for speed, horsepower, and meticulous craftsmanship, and to hang from that framework a unique charity fundraiser. The evening would draw together like-minded enthusiasts, philanthropists and families with a child who faces cancer, and as a community, we would begin to fund a difference. The Morgan Adams Concours d’Elegance is one of our signature events, and makes possible much of the work that we fund. The event would not be able to get off the ground if it were not for the countless hours of an exceptional team of people. They give their heart and soul to making sure this evening runs as smoothly and as seamlessly as possible, that we have beautiful machines to share with you, that there is great food to eat and fantastic auction items to bid on. Without them, we would be in a very different place, and the growth of this event, which you see all around you tonight, is possible because of them. That vision took flight in May of 2003 at Signature Flight Support. We never looked back — and what a phenomenal difference has been made. Tonight, we will have the tremendous honor of sharing with you the journeys of our Ten Ambassadors. They are here to represent each year of this event– each year that you all have helped us fund life-saving research. They are here so you can see the faces of the work you are a part of, and so you might glimpse first-hand the impact your support has made. Many friends have been gained over the course of the last 10 years; as the event has grown to encompass wider and wider circles of people, we have been introduced to some truly amazing people, all of whom play a role in the growth of this organization. We count each of you in that group – thank you for your faith and belief in, and support of the work we are funding. Each of our Ambassdors has been affected by research supported by The Morgan Adams Foundation, and their amazing stories of battles overcome are what keep us coming into work every day. Our warmest and most sincere gratitude to each and every one of you for being with us tonight. Thank you. Please remember to stay, join in the fun, and as always, Bid High and Bid Often! Tonight, we also have the greatest pleasure introducing to you the CoPilots of tonight’s Ambassadors. Each CoPilot has made a pre-event commitment of ten thousand dollars Steven & Joan 3 your hosts Gary Shapiro Gary Shapiro joined 9NEWS in 1983 as the Boulder Bureau reporter.

When Joan and Steve, the parents of Morgan Adams, came up with the idea to raise funds for children’s cancer research in memory of their daughter, the idea of holding an event featuring premier vintage aircraft and automobiles at Centennial Airport was born. Ten years later, no one, not even the late Brett Derosier, who was the driver behind this event, could have imagined that the Concours d ‘Elegance would have grown to become the signature fundraising event at Centennial Airport. More incredibly are the number of lives that have been saved thanks to your generosity and commitment to children’s cancer research. Together we “chip” away at this disease with the goal of eliminating it altogether someday. Thank you again for your support and please enjoy the food donated by our fabulous restaurants, the exquisite cars, bikes and planes on display, and what will be an unforgettable flight demonstration by nationally renowned aerobatic performers. Most importantly, please bid and bid often, or simply donate, but please donate because every dollar helps in saving another child. Cheers, Robert P. Olislagers Executive Director 7800 South Peoria Street, Box G-1 • Englewood, Colorado 80112 Phone: 303-790-0598 • Fax: 303-790-2129 • www.centennialairport.com 7 sponsors thank you to our generous sponsors: Best In Show Newmont Mining Luxury Sponsors Wonderbound Chubb Collector Car Insurance Grand Touring Sponsors Beverage Distributors 5280 Magazine Centennial Airport Hein & Associates LLP TAC Air War Bird Sponsors American Airlines Bouquets Lighting Services, Inc.

CHIPS are a TECHNOLOGY-BASED method of analyzing the biology of tumor tissue samples. Using these specially developed MicroArray Chips, the tissue is read by a computer, which is able to gather genetic information from samples as small as the head of a pin. This method of data collection and analysis allows a researcher to compare over 50 thousand genes simultaneously. This allows for a greater and more rapid determination of the factors which cause tumors to grow. chips hAve the poWer oF one: CHIPS help in determining of what types of disease a particular child’s tumor may consist. This allows doctors to determine a very particular course of treatment specifically for that child . chips hoLd the key For MAny: Compilation of CHIP samples from many patients have enabled the identification of differing traits in cancer sub-types. By looking at these genetic errors en masse, researchers can explore and develop more specifically targeted treatment options that will become the standard of care for all children diagnosed with a particular kind of cancer. 14 The Tenth Morgan Adams Concours D’Elegance Ten For Ten Chip Challenge Please Meet our 2012 CoPilots, each of whom have boldly stepped forward to sponsor one of our Ambassadors for tonight. The copilots have committed, in honor of the child they are sponsoring, to make a difference in the lives of 10 future children battling cancer, by contributing $10,000 — 10 research chips — specifically to support the Chip Project. So through their generosity, we open tonight’s event with a Chip Bank of $100,000. Last year our Chip Pledge raised $100,00. This year’s goal is $250,000, and with this kickoff of $100,000, we look to each of you to help accomplish our goal. Our objective for The House tonight: To meet or beat the Bank. Together, we are asking you to help us reach our boldest fundraising goal for The Morgan Adams Concours: $250,000 for the Chip Project. THE 2012 TEN for TEN COPILOTS 1.

Dr. Denny O’Connell In Celebration of our 2013 Ambassador... 15 ambassador 2003 Will DOB: 5/21/2002 Age: 10 Diagnosis: High-grade Glioma Favorite song: ”Seven Nation Army” by The White Stripes Hobbies: Playing guitar, traveling, and riding his bike On July 3, 2004, a previously undetected cerebellar brain tumor spontaneously ruptured, leaving Will neurologically devastated. The bleeding damaged the remaining tissue so badly that diagnosis was difficult. A 2005 MRI revealed that the same ruptured cancer had returned, but pathologists were unable to make a definitive diagnosis. Soon after, Will began conservative chemotherapy treatment. Unfortunately, by June of 2005, two new tumors had formed. Micro-chip analysis sponsored by the Morgan Adams Foundation indicated that the only treatment option for Will’s unique tumors was high-dose chemotherapy and radiation. For the next several months, Dr. Nick Foreman and his team at Children’s Hospital Colorado successfully guided Will through his treatment. Since then, and after months of speech, physical, and occupational therapy where he relearned how to eat, talk, sit, walk, and play, Will’s life has become wonderfully normal! In addition to tormenting his younger brother, he plays guitar, likes to ride a bike, joined a rugby team and won his fourth grade Spelling Bee! CHIP ImPaCt: Data from the MicroArray chip determined the therapy to be used in treating Will’s tumor, which was successful in spite of his malignant metastatic tumor. Last treatment: 2006 16 ambassador 2004 Caitlin DOB: 12/29/1991 Age: 20 Diagnosis: Grade 4 Medulloblastoma, Favorite song: “Stronger” by Kelly Clarkson Hobbies: Watching movies, hanging out with friends Caitlin was an active and energetic 12 year old when she began to notice some vague balance issues while playing soccer. She saw her pediatrician, who felt the issues were due to her feet growing 2 sizes in a few months. Several months later, her right eye began to turn in. An MRI showed a mass the size of a walnut. A week later she had brain surgery and the tumor was successfully removed, but turned out to be malignant and highly aggressive. She started brain and spinal radiation and chemotherapy, but ended up having a toxic reaction to the radiation and was unable to complete the chemotherapy. After multiple life threatening complications and months of being bedridden, Caitlin began to improve in May of 2006. She spent that summer attending cancer camps and today she is a counselor at Camp Wapiyapi. Caitlin missed a year of school, but with the help of tutors, was able catch up with her schoolwork and graduate with her class. Caitlin had more surgeries to deal with the effects of radiation. Today she is a happy, healthy, and cancer free young woman who is studying childhood education at Regis University and dreams of working with kids. CHIP ImPaCt: Caitlin’s severe reaction to her radiation treatment has led to a research project that uses SNP chips to look at DNA repair gene variation, which is called polymorphism. This study will enable future identification of high-risk patients like Caitlin and will both prevent the disastrous consequences of radiation treatment, as well as aid in predicting whether or not a patient could be cured with a reduced amount of therapy. Ongoing MAF support will complete this project. Last treatment: December, 2004 17 ambassador 2005 Aaron DOB: 7/11/1985 Age: 27 Diagnosis: Germinoma Favorite song: ”Stand by Me” performed by Prince Royce Hobbies: Tennis and kayaking Shortly after finishing his first year at Colorado College, Aaron received a phone call informing him he had a brain tumor and needed emergency treatment for a cancer known as Germinoma. After two surgeries, he was sent to Children’s Hospital Colorado for chemotherapy. He was told he had lost his short-term memory, which was unlikely ever to return. His hopes of finishing college and attending law school seemed impossible. Remarkably, Dr. Nick Foreman was able to restore Aaron’s memory using research funded by The Morgan Adams Foundation. His oncologist referred to Aaron as his “miracle boy” because Aaron was able to return to Colorado College, make up classes in the summer, and graduate on time. Since graduation, Aaron has worked as a Fellow at the El Pomar and in Washington D.C. as a Public Policy Fellow with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. He has worked in the White House, the Office of Legislative Affairs, and with former Colorado Congressman John Salazar. He now attends Cooley Law School in Lansing, Michigan. CHIP ImPaCt: MAF supported work into the memory loss associated with intracranial germ cell tumors, which enabled researchers to realize the importance of rapid initiation of therapy. Aaron presented with severe loss of memory, but quick commencement of therapy reversed the disorder. Last treatment: November, 2005 18 ambassador 2006 Christian DOB: 2/25/2002 Age: 10 Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma Favorite song: “Don’t Stop Believing” by the Glee Cast Hobbies: Cub Scouts and music Christian was an active and loving 3-year-old when diagnosed Medulloblastoma on July 15th, 2005. He was rushed to Children’s Hospital Colorado, where his family was met by Dr. Foreman and Dr. Handler. Within a few days of diagnosis, Christian underwent an eight-hour surgery to remove the tumor at the skilled hands of Dr. Handler. He stayed in the hospital for two-and-a-half weeks to recover. His roller coaster ride continued when cancer cells were found during a spinal tap. Christian underwent a six-week high dose radiation and chemotherapy treatment at University of Colorado and Children’s Hospital, then repeated a chemotherapy cycle every six weeks. Today, Christian’s prognosis is very good, thanks to Dr. Foreman and the amazing staff at The Children’s Hospital Colorado. Christian has benefited from the research funded by the Morgan Adams Foundation. His October 2011 MRI showed no signs of cancer. Christian is a happy, easy-going 10-year-old who loves life and is looking forward to fourth grade. He performs with a children’s choir and had the privilege of singing a duet during the winter and spring performances. He is a Cub Scout and has earned his Bear and Wolf badges. He continues to amaze us, and we are so proud of him. CHIP ImPaCt: Collaborative collection of chip data, including Colorado Children’s hospital, has enabled researchers to realize that even children with metastatic disease can be cured with the application of modified therapy. Last treatment: 6 years ago 19 ambassador 2007 Whitney DOB: 10/27/1992 Age: 19 Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma Favorite song: “Part of Me” by Katy Perry Hobbies: Motivational speaking Two weeks into her freshman year of high school, Whitney began to experience bad headaches, nausea, loss of appetite, and fatigue. She found out they were caused by a Medullablastoma tumor. It was the size of a walnut and located at the base of her brain, blocking spinal fluid from moving up and down her spinal cord. She had surgery to remove the tumor, followed by three chemotherapy/ radiation treatments and nine maintenance chemotherapy treatments. With the help of research funded by the Morgan Adams Foundation, Dr. Nick Foreman of Children’s Hospital Colorado qqqwas able to adjust the treatment for high-risk Medulloblastoma tumors, finding a cure for a previously incurable disease. Since her treatment, Whitney has been valedictorian of her class, a Kansas Regent Scholar, and an inspirational speaker. She studies nursing Colby Community College, is a member of a sorority, and is on the honor roll. CHIP ImPaCt: MicroArray Chip data has allowed researchers to accurately identify a particular high risk Medulloblastoma (c-myc positive). This has enabled treating physicians to adjust therapy and now means that children with this variant of Medulloblastoma, previously incurable, now have a reasonable chance of cure. Last Treatment: 2009 20 AMBASSADOR 2008 Tayler DOB: 12/15/2004 Age: 8 Diagnosis: Glioblastoma Multiforme Favorite song: “I’ve Got a Feeling” by The Black Eyed Peas Hobbies: Riding her scooter, swimming, reading, writing and art On November 2, 2008, Tayler inexplicably went into seizures and was transported to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at the Children’s Hospital Colorado. Tests revealed a small lesion in the right temporal lobe of her brain, but a full diagnosis was not readily available. Tayler recovered to the point she could go home and was scheduled for a follow-up MRI six weeks later. When Tayler went back to Children’s for her follow-up MRI, the lesion had grown to the size of a golf ball. She underwent a craniotomy to remove the mass. She was then diagnosed with Gliblastoma Multiforme (a stage four brain tumor with a twenty percent survival rate in kids). However, Tayler’s tumor had been “chipped” and was being closely studied. The information attained from chipping allowed the doctors to recommend a new course of treatment—a rather harsh one not typically used for this type of cancer. The risk paid off and Tayler finished treatment in March of 2010, cancer-free ever since. She’ll be starting second grade in the fall, likes to swim, and is a “Daisy” in the Girl Scouts. CHIP IMPACT: Tayler was identified by conventional pathology as having a Glioblastoma, but when treated with therapy for this tumor, it rapidly recurred. Chip data suggested an entirely different diagnosis and when treated with therapy suggested by this analysis, Tayler has done very well and is a long-term survivor. Last Treatment: March, 2010 21 ambassador 2009 Eli DOB: 9/20/2006 Age: 5-¾ Diagnosis: Craniopharyngioma Favorite song: “We Are Young” by Fun Hobbies: Skiing, playing violin and dancing In late December 2008 while on the East Coast for his great-grandmother’s 90th birthday, Eli started to vomit and became lethargic. As people in NYC rang in the New Year of 2009, Eli had a massive ninety-minute seizure. He was rushed to a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, where a CT scan revealed a non-malignant brain tumor known as a Craniopharyngioma. The tumor was so large, it obstructed the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), causing vomiting and headaches. Eli was rushed to the OR for a shunt placement to drain the CSF and save his life. Thanks to research funded by the Morgan Adams Foundation, Eli’s tumor is now the first Craniopharyngioma brain tumor in the world to be Gene Micro Arrayed. This work is now being continued by Eli’s dad, a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Colorado Cancer Center, funded by MAF. Thanks to your generous support, Eli’s dad continues to learn more about this elusive tumor to find better treatments for the terrible side effects of this tumor, so children like Eli can have better and brighter futures. Eli is now a big brother, went skiing for the first time, and will start kindergarten in the fall. CHIP ImPaCt: Eli inspired us to look at the chip data for all children with Craniopharyngiomas, something which had never been done in any center. Chip data has suggested potential new therapies for this tumor. Ongoing MAF support will fund the continuation of this study. Last treatment: March, 2011 (The last MRI on 9/10/2011 showed tumor shrinking) 22 AMBASSADOR 2010 Myles DOB: 5/26/2002 Age: 10 Diagnosis: Medulloblastoma Favorite song: “I’ve Got a Feeling” by The Black Eyed Peas Hobbies: Exploring Myles was an active six-year-old who one day, after a fall while ice skating, had trouble getting his eyes to track together. A subsequent scan revealed a tumor near Myles’s brain stem, known as a Medulloblastoma. He had brain surgery to remove most of the tumor and then fought through months of chemotherapy and radiation. Following positive MRIs at three- and six-month post-treatment appointments, doctors discovered a new tumor, but not in the form of a typical Medulloblastoma reoccurrence. Myles was given more radiation that targeted the new tumor and more chemotherapy in preparation for stem cell collection. After yet more chemotherapy, Myles was admitted to the Bone Marrow Transplant unit for his high dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplant. One day after his 9th birthday, an MRI showed two new tumors. At this point, Dr. Foreman went back to the original tumor to retrieve information from the Micro Array Chip that had been placed 2 ½ years earlier. With this new information, doctors started Myles on a new medicine. Myles deals with side effects of all his past treatments but has had some clear MRIs lately and is enjoying more time with friends and less time at clinic. CHIP IMPACT: Myles has had relapses of metastatic medulloblastoma, which in the past been have been fatal in all children. Development of new therapies inspired by chip analysis have enabled Myles to survive these relapses and given him a realistic chance of cure. Last Treatment: Ongoing 23 ambassador 2011 Grace DOB: 4/26/2000 Age: 12 Diagnosis: Glioblastoma with PNET component Favorite song: “Stronger” by Kelly Clarkson Hobbies: Reading, swimming, shopping, going to the spa, and creating art In December of 2010, Grace began to complain that her right foot was going numb a few times a day, lasting for about a minute each time. This numbness was accompanied by weakness and an eventual inability to lift her ankle in a normal walking stride. She was taken to the Children’s Hospital Colorado for what was assumed to be a pinched nerve. Instead, doctors discovered that Grace had a brain tumor in the motor cortex of her brain, which affected her right foot. Thanks to Dr. Nick Foreman’s research funded by The Morgan Adams Foundation, treatment began with brain and spinal radiation in combination with carboplatinum chemotherapy each weekday for thirty days. The treatment was successful and Grace is now a twelve-year-old who loves swimming freestyle and butterfly, riding her electric scooter, and hanging out with her friends. CHIP ImPaCt: Chip data has shown that certain tumors do not fit neatly into one category. Some, such as Grace’s, have characteristics of two different types of brain tumors. The chip analysis enabled doctors to modify the therapy in order to treat for both tumor elements, offering the realistic chance of a cure. Last Treatment: April, 2012 24 ambassador 2012 Kuhu DOB: 9/02/1997 Age: 14 Diagnosis: Ganglioglioma Favorite song: “Rolling in the Deep” by Adele Hobbies: Dancing, playing the keyboard, singing, and she enjoys theater. When Kuhu was twelve years old, she was having trouble writing, playing the clarinet, and everyday activities were difficult because her right hand was not functioning properly. After numerous MRIs and meetings with several physicians around the state, a small mass was found on her brain stem, a benign Ganglioglioma brain stem tumor. Surgery removed most of the tumor, and was followed by proton radiation therapy in Houston, Texas. Unfortunately, she continued to have trouble eating, drinking, and walking due to nausea. Another MRI showed that a new tumor had grown in a different location, triggering new symptoms. That’s when she and her family found out about the research of Dr. Foreman, and under his care, she has started a combination of traditional chemotherapy and new medication. So far, this has been working well. Kuhu’s love of dance has been a part of her life since she was four years old. She has been training in Bharatnatyam—one of eight classical dance styles in Indian culture—for more than ten years under the guidance of her guru. Her efforts culminated in her Arangetram (debut of the dance) in February of this year, where her performance represented her coming of age. Kuhu’s Arangetram also served to underscore her journey with her cancer, and through her ceremony, she raised more than $5000 to help fund cancer research. CHIP ImPaCt: Through chip data analysis, researchers were able to look into the genetic basis for certain low grade tumors which had previously been very difficult to treat. This resulted in the identification of a specific treatable genetic mutation which, in Kuhu’s case, after radiation failed, resulted in dramatic improvement in scan and in symptoms.
