Near-Term Commercialization Strategy Skin Cancer Screening and Diagnosis Skin cancer is the most prevalent cancer in the United States 3.5 million new cases annually and a lifetime incidence rate of 20% Exceeds the combined incidence of breast, prostate, lung and colon cancers Conventionally, skin cancers are diagnosed initially by visual inspection and biopsy, an invasive and painful procedure in which tissue is surgically removed and then examined in a laboratory over the next few days. Nearly 80% of the biopsies performed are benign Biopsies can lead to complications such as infection or scarring VivaScope reduces the need to biopsy potential to reduce biopsy rates by 80%! Patients prefer a non-invasive procedure Caliber I.D. estimates this market opportunity to be $1.0 billion globally

 
 

Near-Term Commercialization Strategy Skin Cancer Screening and Diagnosis Independent skin cancer screening clinics Developing market across healthcare continuum For the first time patients will have an option and preference for an alternative to biopsy! Potential source of high margin, recurring revenue stream for Caliber I.D. Managed Care closed system HMOs May significantly improves outcomes and reduces costs Allows fast detection of cancerous lesions that appear benign Dramatically reduces the need for expensive, painful and time-consuming biopsies There are more than 1,000 managed care organizations in the U.S. that would benefit from the VivaScope system Potential cost savings of more than $1 billion annually in the U.S., not including any productivity improvements

 
 

Near-Term Commercialization Strategy Skin Cancer Screening and Diagnosis Images can be interpreted by the physician at the point of patient care, and/or Images can be securely transferred to a private-network pathologist for remote diagnosis

 
 

Longer-Term Commercialization Strategy Surgical and Therapeutic Management In therapeutic monitoring, VivaScope allows physicians to repeatedly and nondestructively examine tissue to determine the effectiveness of therapy in real time In surgery, the technology can enable surgeons to identify, differentiate and diagnose various tissue types for rapid assessment of tissue pathology, reducing procedure time and the re-operative rate per patients, significantly reducing costs and improving patient outcomes Pathology could be performed immediately locally or remotely via VivaNet telepathology network, which would serve as a source of recurring revenues Market assessment currently underway but is expected to be the largest global opportunity

 
 

Growth Strategy Caliber I.D. is a unique platform-technology company that has the ability to address multiple high growth markets in drug research and in the cancer diagnosis/treatment markets and in clinical medicine Initially Caliber I.D. is focused on the research market, followed by the clinical diagnostic/therapeutic markets and then by therapeutic and surgical management The vision is to be a viable competitor offering an alternative confocal microscopy system to the global drug, therapeutic and clinical markets Strategic goal is to install Caliber I.D. systems in every skin cancer clinic, in daily use, generating highly profitable recurring revenues for Caliber I.D. through either a direct sale or rental programs In addition, VivaNet and VivaLan image sharing and cloud storage systems will provide for additional recurring revenues Product Service and Service Contract revenues will also be generate ongoing revenues

 
 

Approaching Milestones Continue execution/rollout of Research Sales team - 2014 Opening first independent Imaging Center in May 2014 Develop and support the launch of Independent Imaging Centers across the U.S. _ _ Complete NCI - sponsored Melanoma study _ _ Seek partnership with a pharmaceutical company for neuropathy applications _ _ Began the development of new compact confocal imaging device leveraging novel technology with the University of Rochester 2014
