Animals were individually housed in stainless steel suspended cages identified by a card inHirating the lab number, animal number, test code, sex. and date dosed. Environmental: The room temperature was monitored daily. The temperature range for the rabbit was 64-74F. The room humidity was monitored daily. The humidity range for the rabbit was 10-70%. The light cycle was controlled using an automatic timer (12 hours light. 12 hours dark). Facility: Personnel: Selection: NAmSA is an AAALAC accredited facility. Associates involved were appropriately qualified and trained. Only healthy, thin-skinned animals free of mechanical irritation or trauma that could interfere with the test were selected. Experimental Procedure: Prior to treatment, each rabbit was clipped free of fur from the back and both sides of the spinal column to yield a sufficient injection area. Two rabbits were prepared per pair of a s - A 0.2 ml dose of tt* article extract was injected intracutaneously into five separate sites on die right side of the backof each rabbit, 0.2 ml of the control blank was injected into five separate sites on the corresponding left side of * e back. Injections were spaced approximately 2 cm apart. The animals were returned to their respective cages following the procedure. Observations for erythema and edema were conducted at 24. 48. and 72 hours after injection. Reactions were scored on a 0 to 4 basis. Any reaction at the injection sites was also noted. The reactions were evaluated according to the following subjective rating scale: ERYTHEMA (ER) 0 No erythema 1 Very sliglit (barely perceptible) 2 Well-defined (pink) 3 Moderate to severe (red) 4 Severe (beet redness) to slight eschar formation (injuries in depth) EDEMA (ED) 0 No edema 1 Very slight (barely perc^otible) 2 Slight (edges of area wui-defu*ed by definite swelling) 3 Moderate (raised approximatr*.; 1 n_n) 4 Severe (raised more than 1 mm, may extend beyond the area of exposure) 1 I rhe cumulative average erythema and edema score for each test extract and coree^ondmg cramol blnk was alculated. For each extract, a difference in average scores (test minus control blank) of 1.0 or less was nsidered to be acceptable. A difference of 0.6 to 1.0 indicated a slight, but acceptable, reaction. A____ iifference > 1.0 was considered to be unacceptable. Additionally, the average score for each test extract and flank was calculated for each interval. Any adverse reaction noted in the test extract was compared to the rresponding blank. - 12 - Somoanv S anitized.

The paravertebral muscles were dissected free and methodically cut to locate four of the test article sites and two of the USP negative control sites in each rabbit. Capsule formation or other evidence of irritation was scored using appropriate magnification and an auxiliary light source. Scores were assigned and recorded as follows: 0 No capsule, no adverse reaction (other than minimal hemorrhage) 1 Up to 0.5 mm capsule or reaction area 2 0.6 to 1.0 mm capsule or reaction area 3 1.1 to 2.0 mm capsule or reaction area 4 > 2.0 mm capsule or reaction area Average macroscopic scores for test implants were compared to average scores of the control sites. Calculations were rounded off to the nearest 0.1. A Reaction Index difference of 0.0 to 0.S in scores (test minus control) was regarded as 'not significant,* 0.6 to 1.0 as a 'trace,* 1.1 to 2.0 as 'slight,* 2.1 to 3.0 as "moderate' and >3.1 as 'marked.' The requirements of the USP test were met if the difference between test and control score averages (macroscopic) was not greater than 1.0. The requirements of the test were not met if the difference between the test and control score for two (or more) implant sites exceeded 1 for any animal implanted. RESULTS Clinical Observations: All animals appeared clinically normal throughout the duration of the study. Body weight data for individual rabbits were considered acceptable. Macroscopic Observations: The findings fin- the macroscopic evaluation are shown below. Previous use history traceable in laboratory records. Macroscopically, there was no difference between the reactions of the test and control materials. This resulted in a macroscopic reaction of 'not significant* tissue contact irritation. Results and conclusions apply only to the test article tested. No further evaluation of these results is made by NAmSA.

Water: Contaminants: Housing: Freely available, municipal (Toledo, OH) water was delivered through an automatic watering system. Reasonably expected contaminants in feed or water supplies did not have the potential to influence the outcome of this test. Animals were individually housed in stainless steel suspended cages identified by a card indicating the lab number, animal number, test code, sex, and date implanted. Environmental: The room temperature was monitored daily. The temperature range for the rabbit was 64-74F. The room humidity was monitored daily. The humidity range for the rabbit was 30-70%. The light cycle was controlled using an automatic timer (12 hours light, 12 hours dark). Facility: NAmSA is an AAALAC accredited facility. Personnel: Associates involved were appropriately qualified and trained. Selection: Healthy animals were selected. To reduce the number of animals used for testing, and to comply with the directives of the NAmSA IACUC, rabbits on this study may have been used previously in an unrelated test model. Any previously evaluated test or control articles did not cause a response in the animals. Complete history of animal usage is traceable in laboratory records. Animals used for previous evaluations a it identified in the report. Experimental Procedure: The fur was clipped from the area over the paravertebral muscles and the rabbits were sedated with acepromazine maleate (0.2 ml/kg dose). After the muscle area was wiped clean with 70% alcohol, each paravertebral muscle was infiltrated with 1% lidocaine to achieve local anesthesia on both sides of the vertebral column. Needles containing test article were inserted into the muscle at a 45 angle. A stylet was piiced in the needle and the needle was withdrawn, leaving the sample in the paravertebral muscle. Six test article sections were implanted in the right paravertebral muscle of each rabbit. In the opposite muscle, four USP negative control strips were similarly implanted. Rabbits were returned to their respective cages' following the procedure. Rabbits were observed daily for general health. Body weights were recorded prior to implantation and at termination. --____ j n>e n o t contain TSCA, CBi - 35 - NAihSjI World Loader im Testing Services fo r the Medical Device Industry 2261 Trtcy Road N orlhwood.

Page 3 of 7 The test snide identified below was evaluated for biocompatibility in accordance with the guidelines of the current USP. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the potential for a local irritant or toxic response to material implanted in direct contact with muscle tissue. The test article waa tecdved on September 4,1996. The animals were implanted on September 6,1996, and muscles were explained on September 13,1996. MATERIALS The sample provided by the sponsor was identified and handled as follows: Test Article: H-22074 (test item) Identification No: H-22074 Stonge Conditions: Room temperature Control Article: USP plastic 1 mm diameter narrive control reference strips purchased by NAmSA from the offices o f the JS Pharmacopeia] Convention and cut into 10 mm aecdons. Preparation: A minimum of six sections of the test article per rabbit, each approximately 1 mm x 10 mm, were loaded into 16 gauge needles. For each rabbit, a minimum of four USP strips w oe loaded into foe same aize needles as used for foe test stride. Test and control articles were sterilized by stem .

The paravertebral muscles were dissected free and methodically cut to locate four of the test uticle sites and two of the USP negative control sites in each rabbit. Capsule formation or other evidence of irritation was scored fag appropriate magnification and an auxiliary light source. Scores were assigned and recorded as luiiows: 0 No capsule, no adverse reaction (other than minimal hemorrhage) 1 Up to 0.S mm capsule or reaction area 2 0.6to 1.0mm capsule or reaction area 3 l .l to 2.0 mm capsule or reaction area 4 > 2.0 mm capsule or reaction area Average macroscopic scores for test implants were compared to average scores of the control sites. Calculations were rounded off to die nearest 0.1. A Reaction Index difference of 0.0 to 0.5 in scores (test minn rantmi) was regarded as "not significant,* 0.6 to 1.0 as a "trace,* 1.1 to 2.0 as slight, 2.1 to 3.0 as 'moderate* and fe3.1 as "marked." The requirements of the USP test were met if the difference between test and control score averages (macroscopic) was not greater than 1.0. The requirements of the test were not met if the difference between the test and control score for two (or more) implant sites exceeded 1 for any animal implanted. RESULTS r fircjffll Ahucrwrinn; All animal appeared clinically normal throughout the duration of die study. Body weight data for individual rabbits were considered acceptable.
