3 Problem Chronic pain is pain that lasts longer than six months. It can be mild or excruciating, episodic or continuous, inconvenient or totally incapacitating. Fibromyalgia, Migraine, Lower Back Pain, TMD, … Over 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain, a huge potential market. An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience 1/31/15CNS Therapy, AG Confidential

4 Solution - SET A new non-invasive and low risk medical device Cardiac gated electrical stimulation to the hand. Disrupts pain patterns and encourages learning. combined with Behavioral Operant Therapy and E-learning Changes patient and partner pain adaptations, behaviors, cognitions, rewards, and movement, 5 weeks, 20 hours, highly successful 1/31/15CNS Therapy, AG Confidential

5 How it works simplified Pain is perception. With chronic pain, the brain has learned not to inhibit peripheral inputs and the person is constantly or intermittently in a state of pain. This brain pattern has been adopted and is maintained due to stress, psychology, and other factors. We discovered that these patterns are associated with measurable weakness in the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Our device is able to use the ANS to disrupt these patterns and renew itself through 8 minute cardiac gated electrical stimuli. When the pattern is upset, the brain is more receptive to learning. We use this opportunity, through operant conditioning and behavioral training, to correct the behaviors, cognitions adaptations, and reward structures that maintain the pain. The use of the device and therapy is individualized and guided by a patient and therapist E-learning program that tracks results and insures standardization. It has a long term effect and can be refreshed if needed. Works for over ½ of the people. They cannot use medication or have personality disorders and must be willing to work to change behaviors. 1/31/15CNS Therapy, AG Confidential

9 Competition Medical Doctors, Implants, and Drugs – Low effect for chronic pain, side effects, fast/easy prescription, harmful over time, invasive, $$$$$, risky, increasing dosages, adaptation. Traditional Therapy – slow, often not effective, changing the mind without the body is difficult and expensive. TENS, bio- and neurofeedback, yoga, meditation, … - checker board results, short term effect, studies inconclusive. None use patient biological heterogeneity. 1/31/15CNS Therapy, AG Confidential
