On March 25, 2021 Shelden Martin, MD performed the first successful total

shoulder arthroplasty in Scottsdale, AZ using the Smart SPACE 3D Virtual

Planner and the Shoulder Cubit Guidance digital platform. Upon completion of

the procedure Dr. Martin stated that, "I am very pleased that our first

shoulder arthroplasty utilizing Smart SPACE Cubit Guidance went extremely well.

I was impressed with the seamless and efficient integration of the

instrumentation into my normal procedural workflow, resulting in minimal

deviations from normal technique and no additional procedural time. Most

importantly, the final component positioning precisely matched our

patient-specific pre-operative surgical plan. I am very excited about the

future promise of this unique technology."

Smart SPACE is LimaCorporate's digital platform and features novel technology

and a rich pipeline of landscape-changing applications. Smart SPACE is a new

environment designed to further enable the surgeon and enhance the

predictability of surgical outcomes providing peace-of-mind to the physician.

In particular, the Shoulder Cubit Guidance is designed to deliver accurate

anatomy and instrument tracking without the challenges and disruptions of

optical surgical navigation. The Shoulder Cubit Guidance is the perfect

complement to the Smart SPACE 3D Virtual Planner, which is powered by advanced

AI algorithms developed by TechMah Medical, LLC. The Smart SPACE 3D Virtual

Planner and Shoulder Cubit Guidance are innovative and fundamental cornerstones

of the Smart SPACE ecosystem.

This pioneering digital platform is intended to allow surgeons to develop a

complete pre-operative plan, through the Smart SPACE 3D Virtual Planner and

execute the plan precisely using a combination of patient customized 3D

Positioners and the Cubit Guidance System with its proprietary sensor

technology. Surgeons will receive real time feedback regarding instrument and

implant positioning, all while maintaining their desired OR and patient set up.

The Smart SPACE Shoulder system is currently in Controlled Release within the

United States and Europe and is scheduled for full commercial release in Q4

2021.

Luigi Ferrari, LimaCorporate CEO, stated: "The successful completion of the

first Shoulder Cubit guided surgery is a significant milestone in Digital

Transformation at LimaCorporate and signals the completion of the first phase

of the Smart SPACE roadmap. I'm excited about the positive impact that this

groundbreaking technology will have in the daily lives of our surgeons and

their patients."
