1 Inspire Therapy for Obstructive Sleep Apnea For OSA patients unable to tolerate or get consistent benefit from CPAP Clinical Data Update Summary of published long-term 3-year outcomes data Treatment Goals for OSA Patients Reduce Symptoms Improve Quality of Life Reduce Accident Risk Minimize Cardiovascular and Other Health Risks

2 Consequences of Untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) AIRFLOW Airway Obstruction: 47 seconds Airway Obstruction: 86 seconds During sleep, OSA patients experience repetitive airway obstructions followed by oxygen desaturations OXYGEN SATURATION LEVEL Desaturation (45.13s) [13] Desaturation (91.83s) [24] 90% 84% 74% *Excerpt from a sleep study of an Inspire therapy candidate Moderate to severe OSA patients can experience hundreds of obstructions and desaturations each night INCREASED RISK DUE TO UNTREATED OSA 匀琀爀漀欀攀 䐀攀愀琀栀 猀攀瘀攀爀攀伀匀䄀 䠀礀瀀攀爀琀攀渀猀椀漀渀 䴀漀琀漀爀嘀攀栀椀挀氀攀䄀挀挀椀搀攀渀琀猀 䠀攀愀爀琀䘀愀椀氀甀爀攀 伀挀挀甀瀀愀琀椀漀渀愀氀䄀挀挀椀搀攀渀琀猀 䐀攀愀琀栀 洀漀搀攀爀愀琀攀伀匀䄀 吀礀瀀攀 䐀椀愀戀攀琀攀猀 䐀攀瀀爀攀猀猀椀漀渀 䌀漀爀漀渀愀爀礀䄀爀琀攀爀琀礀䐀椀猀攀愀猀攀 アハ ート 㐀 㔀 㘀 㜀 㠀 㤀 䤀渀挀爀攀愀猀攀搀刀椀猀欀 Odds Ratio Hazard Ratio Relative Risk アハ ート 㐀 㔀 㘀 㜀 㠀 㤀 アハ ート Untreated OSA can have devastating effects on heart and brain health, impair quality of life and increase motor vehicle and occupational accident risk 1.

3 OSA Treatment Shown to Reduce Cardiovascular Events Untreated severe OSA (AHI of 30+) is associated with an increased risk of both fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events Consistent treatment with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure 1 (CPAP) or an AHI <15 reduces risk Cumulative incidence of fatal CVS events (%) SEVERE OSA MILD OSA OSA W/CPAP SNORERS CONTROLS Months Adapted from Spanish Sleep Cohort (n=1,651, mean follow-up of 10 yrs; age ~ 50 yr) 1 Consistent use - Average daily use more than 4 hours; Long-term cardiovascular outcomes in men with obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea w/ or w/o treatment with CPAP: an observational study; Marin et al., Lancet 2005

4 The Hypoglossal Nerve (Cranial Nerve XII) The Basis for Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation Therapy Motor nerve Controls the muscles and movements of the tongue Mild stimulation of the distal hypoglossal nerve restores upper airway muscle tone Adapted from IVLine.org Increase in muscle tone can prevent the tongue and other soft tissues from collapsing and obstructing the airway during sleep

5 Stimulation Synched with Breathing The Inspire System Delivers Therapy When Airway is Most Vulnerable to Collapse 1) Stimulation Cuff 2) Generator 3) Breathing Sensor Fully implanted system that uses well-established technologies and surgical techniques Breathing sensor monitors a patient s breathing cycle Rhythmic, mild stimulation is delivered to the hypoglossal nerve through the stimulation cuff Mild stimulation is delivered during inspiration, when the OSA patient s airway is most vulnerable to collapse

6 Stimulation Effect on Airway Anatomy No Stimulation Mild Stimulation Palate Tongue Base Obstructed Airway Palate 180% increase in airway dimension Open Airway Tongue Base 130% increase in airway dimension At therapeutic titrated levels, Inspire therapy prevents the airway from collapsing to facilitate unobstructed breathing Safiruddin, et al. European Respiratory Journal, January 2015 *Endoscopy images of an Inspire therapy recipient

7 Stimulation Effect During Sleep Inspire therapy turned on Airflow Breathing SaO2 Severe OSA Events OSA Events Resolved Airflow and breathing stabilized Normal SaO 2 levels restored Uninterrupted sleep continues without arousals *Sleep study of an Inspire therapy recipient

9 Inspire Therapy Long-Term Objective Outcomes Patients using Inspire therapy experienced significant decreases in both AHI and ODI from baseline to 12 months. These significant improvements were maintained over the 36-month follow-up period. APNEA HYPOPNEA INDEX (AHI) Apnea Hypopnea Index Baseline N= N= Month N= N=98 All p values < 0.01 vs. baseline. Results in median. OXYGEN DESATURATION INDEX (ODI) Oxygen DesaturaKon Index Baseline N= N= Month N= N=98 All p values < 0.01 vs. baseline. All p values Results < 0.01 in vs. median. baseline

10 Inspire Therapy Long-Term Patient Reported Outcomes Patients using Inspire therapy reported significant improvements and normalization of both daytime sleepiness and daytime functioning. These significant improvements were reported at 12 months and were sustained at 36-month follow up. EPWORTH SLEEPINESS SCALE (ESS) Epworth Sleepiness Scale Baseline N= N=123 Normalized daykme sleepiness 18 Month N=123 N=110 All p values < 0.01 vs. baseline All p values < 0.01 vs. baseline. Results in median. FUNCTIONAL OUTCOMES OF SLEEP QUESTIONNAIRE * (FOSQ) FuncKonal Outcomes of Sleep QuesKonnaire Normalized daytime functioning 14.6 Baseline N= N= Month N= N=110 All p values < All 0.01 p values vs. baseline. < 0.01 vs. Results baseline in median. * Importantly, all 5 FOSQ subscale variables showed clinically significant improvements. FOSQ subscale variables include (1) activity, (2) productivity, (3) social, (4) intimacy and (5) vigilance.

11 Inspire Therapy Patient and Partner Experience Sleep apnea affects not only patients but their bed partners as well. Snoring, a common sleep apnea symptom, was significantly impacted in patients using Inspire therapy from baseline. Additionally, fewer partners left the room due to their partner s snoring. PARTER REPORTED SNORING OUTCOMES No or soft snoring Bed partner leaves room 100% 80% 86% 87% 80% 50% 40% 60% 30% 30% 40% 20% 20% 17% 10% 5% 4% 3% 0% Baseline N=108 N= Month N=103 N=97 0% Baseline N=108 N= Month N=103 N=97 Therapy adherence remained high throughout the three-year follow-up period.

12 Inspire Therapy Patient Selection Considerations Patients use the handheld sleep remote to turn the therapy on before bed and off upon waking. Inspire therapy is FDA-approved and available at over 50 leading medical centers in the United States. It is intended for people who: Have been diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA (AHI 20-65) Cannot tolerate or get consistent benefit from CPAP Are not significantly overweight People who meet these basic criteria can be referred to a specialist who can evaluate sleep parameters, assess the airway anatomy and determine if Inspire therapy is right for them. In addition, Inspire therapy is approved and available in over 8 European countries. Visit to review risks, benefits and expectations associated with Inspire therapy. Risks associated with the surgical implant procedure are low but may include infection and temporary tongue weakness. Most patients acclimate well to the presence of the Inspire system and to the therapeutic stimulation. Some patients may require post-implant adjustments to the system s settings in order to improve effectiveness and ease acclimatization.
