1 Project Scope
1.1 Background and Requirements
Merge has recently built an MRi based deep brain navigation package for SurgiVision that is marketed under the ClearPoint trade xxxx. The ClearPoint solution is used for planning and placement of electrodes into deep brain structures.
In an effort to expand the offerings in this sector, SurgiVision is exploring new areas of deep brain surgical navigation, drug delivery applications in particular. This statement of work presents the details associated with the development activities needed to deliver such a solution.
[***]
This document is prepared to outline the scope of work, deliverables and schedules for the development work needed to create a tool that could aid in the navigation and tracking component associated with this procedure.
1.2 Solution and Scope of Work
The solution is expected to contain multiple phases:
| • | Prototype phase –[***] |
| • | Enhanced phase – [***] |
| • | Wide market solution – [***] |
| • | Improvements – [***] |
[***] Indicates portions of this exhibit that have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment.

1.3 Implementation model
The solution will be licensed using a node locked licensing model similar to the current ClearPoint solution where installations will require a MAC address specific license file that can be generated on demand.
The solution presented in this SOW is scoped out to be developed using a team of:
| i. | One full time Merge OEM engineer, |
| ii. | One part time Merge OEM segmentation expert - on demand, |
| iii. | One full time architect, |
| iv. | One full time test resource for the test and validation phase |
| v. | 10% part time project manager. |
| vi. | 5% part time system administrator responsible for release activities |
The solution includes complete development, documentation and engineering validation activities. Product validation activities (Alpha and Beta) are not included in this scope because of the unknowns associated with the timing and potential regulatory requirements associated with the market launch of this product.
