2 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL AGENDA  Company & Product  Team  First Year Plans  Project Milestones

3 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL COMPANY OVERVIEW  Massachusetts LLC entity established in 2007  Holding company DE S-corporation established in 2006  Registered in the State of MA in 2006  Supported by a $2M ATP/NIST grant & private funds  Equal equity split between 2 founders (Koshnitsky/Sliski)  Provisional patent filed in Q1, 2006  Utility patent application filed in Q3, 2006  2 additional provisional patents filed in Q3, 2007  3 man-years plus $30K invested to-date between partners Dedicated Radiotherapy Device for the Treatment of Breast Cancer

4 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL External Radiation CLASSIC TX Current/Classic Treatment Technique  Patient in supine position (back)  Whole breast is treated  Lung and heart are effected  Multi-purpose linear accelerator used

5 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL CURRENT TX OPTIONS Pros:  5 day treatment  Minimal dose to lung Cons:  Very select patient group(<1cm, deep seated)  Limited volumetric coverage – poor initial clinical results starting to surface clinical results starting to surface  No long-term data  Limited to one technique  Invasive  Infections due to invasive technique Pros:  Proven gold standard treatment  Complete volume treated  Non-invasive Cons:  6 week regiment  Dose to lung and heart  Hard to perform partial breast RT  Limited to technique used 2 extremes Very Little or All Balloon RTExternal RT

6 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL Dedicated Radiotherapy Device for the Treatment of Breast Cancer   510K FDA clearance – predicate device is a linear accelerator*   Will NOT require clinical trials*   Patient in prone position (face down) to isolate the treatment site   Commercial accelerator sub-system (Siemens, Varian, other)   Maintain and improve on current standard of care (skin sparing, homogeneous dose, whole or partial breast RT)   Capable of delivering new emerging techniques (partial breast, accelerated, stereotactic radiosurgery, intensity modulated, etc)   Machine is self-shielding not requiring primary beam shielding   Compatible with existing, approved Treatment Planning SW from multiple vendors PRODUCT Source: NYU * Confirmed by an FDA expert
