incorporated in 2005, we are a founder-led global private equity health tech investment firm investing in complete buyouts and growth of differentiated healthcare technology companies with focused proven expertise in spine surgery. We invest our own money alongside aligned private investors. We focus on a medium-longterm view to see a multiple return in 3 - 10 years. We grow companies organically and acquire complimentary disruptive technologies. We built a diversified pipeline of early and middle stage companies with disruptive and differentiated technologies that are positioned on a vertically integrated platform to strengthen our market position and to grow high valuations and multiple returns. We seek investors to invest alongside us to infuse growth capital and have the longterm view to benefit from high multiples of stable returns unique to the health technology sector. The budget for healthcare is a large portion of the nondiscretionary spend in every country to meet the demands of an aging population, and therefore presents numerous opportunities for us to improve the quality of service leveraging our management expertise, industry knowledge, and experience. We have generated over $300 M in revenues from our portfolio companies. We had a blockbuster 100X return on the MANTIS sale to Stryker Spine. We are actively pursuing exit opportunities. Our acquisitions of Axiomed LLC and NanoFuse Biologics LLC present opportunities for high multiple returns on investment for these companies.

www.TheLESSinstitute.com LES CLINIC Vision Building from the ground up since 2008, we strive to be a global outpatient Private-Academic Orthopedic and Neurosurgery-Spine Specialty Institute of Excellence. We began in South Florida USA and have expanded to Jamaica to build throughout the Caribbean as the Sandals for Medical Tourism. We aim to leverage our new treatment philosophy and unique technologies for outpatient Less Exposure Surgery. What is LESS Exposure Surgery (LES)? LES is an improvement on minimally invasive surgery (MIS). LES utilizes the newest technique and technology to perform outpatient surgery that is proven, safe, effective, easy to master, preserve the natural anatomy, lessen radiation and allow for minimal blood loss and quick recovery. We keep it simple, safe and sensible (KISS). Why Outpatient VS Hospitals? "We believe patients will have a better experience and recover more quickly and safely if they have less invasive surgery in an outpatient setting instead of a hospital." LES CLINIC MISSION The LES CLINIC tries to meet patients' individual needs through comprehensive evaluation and treatment designed to help them achieve an active, pain-free lifestyle. We combine leading-edge techniques and technologies with proven treatment fundamentals to provide our patients with the best spine care available.
