2 Who Is Biowave? BioWave is a patented smarter pain blocking technology that delivers therapeutic electrical signals through skin into deep tissue to pain nerves blocking the pain signal to the brain. BioWave works like Novocain, except BioWave is blocking the pain signal electrically instead of chemically. Used by most Professional sports teams including the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL as well as by our U.S Military Veterans in over 80 VA Hospitals Page 2 BioWave BioWave.com BIOWAVE

Problem with Existing StimulationTechnologies Low Frequency signals (1-180 hz) are required to affect nerve fibers. Problem - skin has high impedance and capacitance.

4 Problem with Existing StimulationTechnologies Low Frequency signals (1-180 hz) are required to affect nerve fibers. Problem - skin has high impedance and capacitance. Low Frequency (LF) signals regardless of the shape of the waveform cannot pass through skin -LF signals only travel across the surface of skin and never get to the pain nerves conducting the pain signals. (This is the Fundamental problem with TENS). PNS and SCS devices can deliver low frequency signals to pain nerves because they areimplanted with leads placed in the proximity of the nerve to bestimulated. Page 4 BioWave BioWave.com BIOWAVE

Solution toproblem Patented Advanced Signal Technology BioWave alternates the delivery of two summed High Frequency (HF) signals (3858 hz + 3980 hz) back and forth totwo independent electrodes As the

signals (this is known as a Fourier Transform) Result is a new spectrum of signals, one of which is a Low Frequency (LF) signal in the form of an active electrical field in a 3 diameter hemisphere

5 Solution toproblem Patented Advanced Signal Technology BioWave alternates the delivery of two summed High Frequency (HF) signals (3858 hz hz) back and forth totwo independent electrodes As the 2 HF signals pass through skin into deep tissue, all polarized structures including nociceptive pain fibers (C-fiber, A-delta fiber) and muscle tissue causea further multiplication of the 2 HF signals (this is known as a Fourier Transform) Result is a new spectrum of signals, one of which is a Low Frequency (LF) signal in the form of an active electrical field in a 3 diameter hemisphere beneath each electrode, which encompasses all local painnerves, blocking the transmission of the pain signal to the brain. VS. TENS cannot delivery low frequency through skin to pain nerves PNS and SCS have to be implanted and can cost $80,000 plus $5,000 per year in maintenance costs. Page 5 BioWave BioWave.com BIOWAVE

6 Mechanisms ofaction Before Frequency Conduction Block Active electrical field forms at the surface of nerves ina 3 diameter hemisphere beneath both electrodes and is effective at blocking both nociceptive and neuropathic pain. Hyperpolarization of C Fibers -Active electrical field inhibits sodium potassium ion exchange across the membrane of C-fibers preventing action potential propagation Hypoesthesia is induced on A-delta Fibers - Hypoesthesia is induced 5 min into the treatment -Light numbness lasts for up to 20 minfollowing a 30-mintreatment OTHER BENEFITS -Blood flow is accelerated through volume of tissue in hemisphere where active electrical field is present -Muscle tissue held in tension during treatment. As a result, the treatment feels like a deep smooth pressure sensationand is much more comfortable than other forms of electrical stim (IFC, NMES, TENS) -Long carry over effect following treatment is from more efficient production of endogenous opiates endorphins, enkephalins, serotonin Page 6 BioWave BioWave.com BIOWAVE

The key factor is the medical necessity that is provided in your note.

14 When Do I Treat? BioWave Treatments do require preauthorization. Our team of preauthorization experts are here to help your office get the treatments approved. The key factor is the medical necessity that is provided in your note. Prior to sending in patients, we will have a 5 to 10-minute call with our Director Of Reimbursement to go over state specific guidelines for medical necessity and to go over billing codes Page 14 BioWave BioWave.com BIOWAVE
