| Device Description: | The NeuroPort™ Array System (Neuroport Electrode) is<br>comprised of a base approximately 4 mm x 4 mm dimensionally<br>with 100 microelectrodes. Each microelectrode is approximately<br>1 mm long. The lead connects the microelectrode array to the<br>percutaneous pedestal connector.                         |
| Intended Use:       | The NeuroPort™ Array System (Neuroport Electrode) is<br>intended for temporary (<30 days) recording and monitoring of<br>brain electrical activity.                                                                                                                                                               |
| Performance Data:   | Results of non-clinical testing indicate that the NeuroPort™<br>Array System is deemed biocompatible for its proposed intended<br>use and that the NeuroPort™ Array System records brain<br>electrical activity.                                                                                                  |
| Conclusion:         | The NeuroPort™ Array System has the same intended use as<br>compared to the predicate device. Based on the supporting<br>performance data, the NeuroPort™ Array System is capable of<br>recording brain electrical activity and is therefore substantially<br>equivalent to the predicate device technologically. |
