Drug Delivery Evolution

• The hypodermic syringe has been the primary injection means for almost 160 years

• Syringe presents several weaknesses not yet addressed– Pain and the fear of pain – Tissue damage caused by uncontrolled flow rates– Transient or permanent paralysis– Post-operative complications– Risk of medical emergencies including patient fatality– Inability to know precisely where the drug is placed

• Milestone’s instrument overcomes the traditional syringe’s drawbacks through innovative features:

– Measures tissue density to identify the precise needle location – Regulates and controls flow rate of fluid with consistency and accuracy– Disposable handpiece provides precise tactile control – Controls pain that patients typically associate with injections

Epidural Instrument – Clinical Trial

• COMPASS Study (CompuFlo® Assessment Study)– Randomized, controlled, parallel group, multicenter, pivotal study to assess the safety

and effectiveness of the epidural space verification with the CompuFlo® Epidural Computer Controlled System

– The clinical trial for the epidural instrument reached an enrollment of 400 patients and consisted of two separate arms:

• (i) pain management

• (ii) labor and delivery

– Both arms were compared against the current medical standards of care.

– The goal of the pivotal IDE clinical trial was to demonstrate the accuracy of the CompuFlo technology in identifying and confirming the epidural space location

– Designed to support not only submission to the FDA, but also facilitate U.S. reimbursement submissions as well as worldwide marketing

11

Filed 510(k) application with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in July 2016 for marketing clearance of the epidural instrument and disposables in the United States.

Currently, 22 MM PNBs are preformed in the US, EU5, Japan and Brazil, with market growth projected to be 3% annually

Surgical Use

Used for both intra-operative anesthesia

and to manage post-operative pain

Most commonly used in procedures

involving the shoulder, arm, knee, and

ankle/foot

~3 Million PNBs completed in the US1,

with another 7M in the EU, Japan and

Brazil2

Non-Surgical Use

Used to control pain (neuralgia,

complex regional pain syndrome,

Morton’s neuroma) or following an injury

Used as diagnostic procedure to

pinpoint the location/source of a

patient’s pain

~4 MM PNBs were preformed in the

US1, with another 7MM in the EU,

Japan and Brazil2

Current Techniques

Electric Nerve Stimulation

Current Use – Used by health care professionals (HCP) without access or not trained in use of Ultrasound, used alone in ~10-20% of cases in the US3

Shortcomings – Can get false readings and inject into nerve

Fluoroscopy

Current Use – Used in pain management / clinic setting by doctors with device (used more commonly for facet joint blocks)

Shortcomings – Adds additional procedure time and exposes patient to radiation. High capital and operating costs

Ultrasound

Current Use - Current standardof care (SOC); Lowest rate of complications among current techniques used ~70-80% in the US3

Shortcomings - Hard to see in patients with high Body Mass Index (BMI)

The peripheral nerve block opportunity appears promising, with projected annual global revenue of ~$190 MM

The global PNB market is estimated to be ~41 MM procedures conducted annually, with a 3% annual growth rate

Ultrasound guidance is the current standard of care in many countries. However, unmet needs exist in terms of incidence of complications, long onset of pain control in some cases, and patient satisfaction all relating to higher costs

CompuFlo’s unique pressure sensing technology, automatic documentation of procedure details, and ability to improve procedural workflow can address the market’s unmet needs, and is therefore expected to be able to justify a premium price

The peak adoption of CompuFlo by an independent analysis for PNBs done in a surgical setting is expected to be 25% in the US and 20% in the EU

Overall, the global peak revenue of CompuFlo is forecasted at $190 MM

– ~85% of the revenue coming from surgical applications

– ~32% is coming from the US and ~30% from the EU5

– Revenue from instrument placements in the US is projected to be ~$6 MM, which represents <2% of total anesthesiology capital cost in the US1.

– Incremental procedure cost of $30-$50 represents <0.5% of average total reimbursement for major shoulder or knee surgical procedures2

Note: 1) Capital costs related to anesthesia were $330MM in 2013; data from CMS and accessed via TheMax. 2) Major lower and upper body joint

procedures in patients without major comorbidities had an average total reimbursed cost of $15M in 2013; data pulled from CMS
