Biophan's actual results could differ materially from the outcome or circumstance expressed or implied by such forward looking statements as a result of a variety of factors including, but not limited to: Biophan's ability to develop its technologies; the approval of Biophan's patent applications; the successful implementation of Biophan's research and development programs; the ability of Biophan to demonstrate the effectiveness of its technology; the acceptance by the market of Biophan's technology and products incorporating such technology; the ability of Biophan to effectively negotiate and enter into contracts with medical device manufacturers for the licensing of Biophan's technology; competition; the ability of Biophan to raise capital to fund its operating and research and development activities until it generates revenues sufficient to do so; and the timing of projects and trends in future operating performance, as well as other factors expressed from time to time in Biophan's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). As a result, this presentation should be read in conjunction with Biophan's periodic filings with the SEC which are incorporated herein by reference.  The forward-looking statements contained herein are made only as of the date of this presentation, and Biophan undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

  3. Description of Business A medical device company with two lines of business: • Commercialization of the MYOTECH CSS • A novel circulatory support system, with unique advantages in providing circulatory support and recovery in patients with acute heart failure • Licensing of technologies for MRI Safety and Image Compatibility for various medical devices • Significant and disruptive technology that will provide a competitive advantage for stents, pacemakers, CRT devices, ICDs and neurostimulators

  4. The Myotech Opportunity The Problem Acute heart failure (following massive heart attack or cardiac arrest) is one of the largest underserved markets in healthcare. • Existing Solutions • Each of the following approaches has significant limitations: • CPR / defibrillation • Traditional medical therapy • IABP (intra-aortic balloon pump) • VAD (ventricular assist device)

  5. The Myotech Circulatory Support System Approach: Pump the heart without contacting circulating blood. How it Works • Polymer cup that slips over the heart • Installed via a small chest incision • Actuated by a small external driver • Sustains natural pulsatile flow • Avoids bleeding, clotting, infection This technology has already saved human lives.

  6. The Myotech Advantage • No blood contact – minimizes the risk of clotting, stroke, bleeding and infection • Immediate resuscitation and support – installs in about 3 minutes • Can be installed by a general surgeon at most hospitals, not just specialized cardiac centers • Recovery and simple removal, or bridge to definitive therapy • Unique advantages for unserved/underserved patient populations, including women and children • Cost-effective

  7. The Expanded Marketplace • Currently, in the US, there are • 67 active destination therapy centers • 120 transplant centers • 960 specialized cardiac centers • But 6,800 hospitals • The Myotech CSS: • is technically simple to install, • enables use in a much larger segment of the 6,800 hospitals in the US • reaches the patientswhere they present, not only at the most advanced centers

  8. Product Pipeline • First Generation Product – Acute Resuscitation • Support patients with acute heart failure from acute MI / cardiogenic shock or cardiac arrest • Total potential patient population > 300,000 per year in the US alone • Addressable WW market of over $4.5 billion • Future Potential • Evolutionary product generations will address therapeutic recovery and destination therapy market segments, additional multi-billion dollar opportunities

  9. Myotech CSS Percutaneously Installed VADs Surgically Installed VADs Total Artificial Heart Features Competitive Comparison

  10. Clinical and Pre-clinical ResultsUsing Early Prototypes 1.Supported 45-year old for 2 days following massive myocardial infarction. 2. Supported 71-year old for 2 days following otherwise successful open heart surgery. 3. Supported 56-year old for 2-1/2 days as a bridge to successful heart transplantation. 4. Supported 18-year old for 7-1/2 days until heart healed from a viral myocarditis. 5. Supported 44-year old for 84 days with normal neurologic function. All with no damage to the native heart or by-pass grafts More than 700 animal experimentsconducted to evolve and evaluate the technology (over wide spectrum of applications).

  11. Intellectual Property Estate:The Myotech CSS • Patent Protection • Comprehensive U.S. applications • Foreign filings in process • Additional applications being prepared • Technologies / Inventions Covered • Operational features • Diagnostic capabilities • Therapeutic capabilities

  13. The Market:MRI Safety and Image Compatibility • In excess of $15.8 billion in product value is shipped each year that has contraindications or other limitations for use with MRI • Biophan’s revenue opportunity represents royalties (3 to 5%) on sales of products incorporating Biophan’s technology Sources: JP Morgan and Lehman Brothers

  14. The Opportunity:MRI Safety and Image Compatibility The Problem A large number of medical devices have limitations when used in conjunction with MRI. • MRI Safety • Some devices are contraindicated and unsafefor use with MRI • These devices include pacemakers, ICDs, CRT devices, neurostimulators and others • MRI Image Compatibility • Many devices are safe but interfere with MRI imaging • These devices include stents, vena cava filters and others

  15. The Opportunity:MRI Safety and Image Compatibility The Solutions • Technologies for MRI Safety • Discrete resonant circuits to block RF induced heating • Lead wire winding to reduce energy transfer / heating • Low pass filter for heat reduction • Wire looping to minimize induced voltages • Technologies for MRI Image Compatibility • Resonant circuit is tuned to the frequency of the MRI • Novel device designs to minimize image artifacts from: • Shielding (Faraday Cage effect), and • Materials (magnetic susceptibility artifacts)
