3 The & Advantage Transvaginal Mid-Urethral Sling Systems are retropubic offerings designed to create a new standard for Obtryx II Designed for greater ergonomics, needle stability, and control during delivery. sling placement. The Advantage Fit Transvaginal Mid-Urethral Sling System was designed with a 46% thinner needle and 17% tighter curve than the Advantage System to reduce insertion force and leave the mesh closer to the pubic bone, reducing potential chance of bowel or bladder injury. & Advantage System Description M Advantage Fit System (single unit) M Advantage Fit System M Advantage System (single unit) M Advantage System System includes: One (1) Delivery Device and One (1) Mesh Assembly Clinical Reference* The Advantage Mesh is a biocompatible knitted polypropylene material which has been heat treated and de-tanged in the sub-urethral portion of the sling. This heat sealed edge is designed to potentially reduce irritation to the anterior urethral wall. It is designed to reduce the risk of mesh deformation and maintain its integrity during tensioning. All Boston Scientific Mid-Urethral Sling Systems feature Advantage Mesh. The Advantage Mesh has been used in over 500,000 patients. In a retrospective review of 72 patients treated with the Advantage System at a mean follow-up of 16 months, 96% (69/72) objective cure rate was observed. Furthermore upon stratification, patients that had low urethral closure pressures (<20 of H20), and/or hypermobility still had an objective cure rate of 87% (13/15)1.

4 The Suprapubic Mid-Urethral Sling System is designed to Obtryx II maneuver through challenging tissue with a smoother association mechanism in the suprapubic pathway. Lynx System Description M Lynx System (single unit) M Lynx System System includes: Two (2) Delivery Devices and One (1) Mesh Assembly Clinical Reference* In a prospective study of 102 patients that were followed up at 1 year, 90% (92/102) were consiered cured by subjective report and a negative standing stress test. There were 4 (3.4%) intra-op bladder perforations and 5 (4.2%) cases of erosion2. Suprapubic Mid-Urethral Sling System

5 The II Mid-Urethral Sling System is a transobturator sling with enhanced features designed for smooth sling placement, intra-operative adjustability with minimal tissue disruption, and increased visualization for physicians to aid in precise sling placement. II Obtryx II System Halo or Curved Description M Obtryx II System - Curved (single unit) M Obtryx II System - Curved M Obtryx II System - Halo (single unit) M Obtryx II System - Halo System includes: Two (2) Delivery Devices and One (1) Mesh Assembly Clinical Reference* In a prospective, randomized control trial, patients were treated with System and Advantage System. The objective cure rate for the Obtryx System was 81% (68/84) and for the Advantage System 77% (67/87). Cure defined as less than 1 gram urine leak in standardized pad test. The subjective cure rate was 98.8% (85/86) for System and 92.6% (88/95) for Advantage System. Pain at the time of the vaginal examine in the transobturator group was 15.5% in the transvaginal group was 5.6%3. Xenform Obtryx II Featuring PrecisionBlue Design

6 Suburethral Transobturator Sling System II The Mid-Urethral Sling System is a transobturator design offering two needle configurations that allow physicians to choose the delivery method that meets their needs. This is for physician preference. The method of delivery is the same. Obtryx System Halo or Curved Description M Obtryx System - Curved (single unit) M Obtryx System - Curved M Obtryx System - Halo (single unit) M Obtryx System - Halo System includes: Two (2) Delivery Devices and One (1) Mesh Assembly

7 The Single Incision Sling System is designed to reduce dissection and associated risk, and to offer a procedure with fewer steps. The mesh carrier tip snap-fits to the delivery device allowing for advanced control and micro-adjustability during placement. Solyx SIS System Description M Solyx SIS System (single unit) M Solyx SIS System System includes: One (1) Delivery Device and One (1) Mesh Assembly Obtryx II Clinical Reference* Single Incision Sling Advanced Control with Micro-Adjustability Long-term, multi-site retrospective results of 69 patients with mean follow up at 43 months showed that 93% of patients were dry and satisfied with their outcome on the basis of subjective assessment. Furthermore, there were no serious adverse events including no bladder, bowel, vessel or nerve perforations and no erosions or extrusions. No pain was reported that was attributed to the implant. There were 4 cases of denovo urge incontinence and 2 reports of transient retention4.

8 The Suture Capturing Device is designed to enable an intra-vaginal, trocar-free, minimally invasive prolapse repair. The Capio Device is designed for use with the System and custom graft repairs.
