Vascular Anastomosis MarketCurrent Hand-Suturing TreatmentPage 3Vascular anastomosis (the reconnection of blood vessels) is a critical part of microvascular, hand, vascular and transplant surgery procedures. It is estimated that 370,000 vascular anastomosis operations are performed in the US each year with a market size of $75 million.

Slow and time-consuming, taking 12-20 minutes per anastomosis.Technically demanding with a high risk of surgeon error.Suturing is more likely to result in vessel thrombosis, leakage or collapse. No existing device facilitates the vascular anastomosis of both arteries and veins.Page 4Clinical NeedsVascular anastomosis is typically performed by hand suturing (stitching), which has several issues/risks:

Cuvaslar BenefitsRequires 83-85% less surgical time (2-3 minutes) than suturing (12-20 minutes) per anastomosis.Easy to use device that can be used for arteries and veins of different sizes for repair or connection. Minimizes human error and surgeon fatigue associated with manual suturing.Significantly reduces the amount of specialized training required to complete microvascular repair.Reduces the risk of thrombosis and thrombosis-related tissue or limb loss complications that are common with suturing.Reduces the risk of leakage and collapse that occur with suturing.Page 5

US Customer SegmentsCuvaslar’s primary customers will be hospitals and specialized surgical centers, and the users will be surgeons. There are over 5,800 general medical and surgical hospitals in the U.S. Listed below are the most likely surgeries to use Cuvaslar in the US.Page 6

US Vascular Surgery Industry TrendsVascular procedures are increasing due to the aging population in the US.Vascular procedures involving vascular anastomosis is estimated to be 23% of total vascular surgery. Note that the European Union and Canada are our next target markets.Annual Procedures (Millions)Page 7

There is only one device currently available in the US that facilitates vascular anastomosis. The GEM Microvascular Anastomotic Coupler, by Synovis.CompetitionPage 8
