Safe Harbor Statement Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are based on our management's beliefs, assumptions and expectations and on information currently available to our management. Generally, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "projects," "predicts," "potential" and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including without limitation, our expectations regarding (a) regulatory submissions and approvals; (b) our clinical trials, including enrollment in our clinical trials and estimates of regulatory filing dates; (c) our intellectual property position; (d) our perceived ability to develop, receive approval for and commercialize our existing and new products; (e) our expected lead times for achieving milestones and (f) our estimates regarding our preliminary financial results. The forward-looking statements reflect our current view about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we do not assume any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. We may not actually achieve the plans, projections or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and actual results, developments or events could differ materially from those disclosed in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including without limitation those described in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our Form 10- K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and subsequent filed reports. For instance, the following important factors could prevent us from achieving our goals and cause the assumptions underlying the forward- looking statements and the actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by those forward looking statements: (a) inability to fund ongoing operations, including raising additional capital to support further development and growth; (b) inability to recruit, retain and motivate appropriately qualified employees; (c) unsatisfactory or uncompetitive clinical outcomes for our products (e.g. high stroke, device failure or adverse event rates); (d) lack of physician acceptance or adoption of our products; and, (e) inability to receive and maintain regulatory approvals and consents (e.g. ISO, FDA etc). Additional information concerning our risk factors and uncertainties is contained in our filings with the SEC and ASX. CAUTION: Investigational device. Limited by United States law to investigational use.
