Legal Disclaimers This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including statements about: uncertainties regarding the FDA regulatory approval process, whether the results of our clinical trials will be sufficient to  support an FDA, CE Mark or TGA approval of the PoNS™ device for marketing or whether the agencies may require that the Company conduct future clinical trials; future economic, competitive, reimbursement and  regulatory conditions; new product introductions; ability to commercialize its PoNS Treatment™; demographic trends; the intellectual property landscape; financial market conditions; continued availability of capital and  financing, including its ability to continue as a going concern; and future business and strategic decisions made by the Company and its competitors. These statements involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties  and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. We may  not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ  materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied by any  forward looking statements include the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, uncertainties associated with clinical trial enrollments and the results of clinical trials, uncertainties associated with the clinical development process and regulatory subimssion and approval process, and other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June  30, 2020, as well as those set forth from time to time in the Company’s other filings with the securities and exchange commission and the Canadian securities regulators available at http://www.sec.gov or www.sedar.com The forward-looking statements in this presentation  represent our views as of the date of this presentation. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking  statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our  views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation. Certain data in this presentation was obtained from various external sources. Neither the Company nor its affiliates, advisers or representatives have verified such data with independent sources. Accordingly, neither  the Company nor any of its affiliates, advisers or representatives make any representations as to the accuracy or completeness of that data or commits to update such data after the date of this presentation. Such  data involves risks and uncertainties and is subject to change based on various factors. The Company’s first product, known as the Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator (“PoNS"TM), is an authorized class II, non-implantable medical device authorized for sale in Canada. PoNS is intended as a short term treatment (14 weeks) of gait deficit due to mild and moderate symptoms from MS and balance deficit due to mild-to-moderate traumatic brain injury (“mmTBI”) and is to be used in conjunction with physical therapy (“PoNS Treatment"TM). It is an investigational medical device in the United States, the European Union (“EU”), and Australia (“AUS”), and it is currently under review for clearance by the FDA for use in gait dysfunction due to MS and AUS Therapeutic Goods Administration. PoNS Treatment™ is not currently commercially available in the United States, the European Union or Australia. The Company has withdrawn its application from the EU marketing process due to uncertainty in Europe due to the switch from the Medical Device Directive (MDD) to the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and the withdrawal of Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance, the Company’s notified body, from the notified body business. The Company will reconsider submitting to the EU when conditions stabilize. www.heliusmedical.com | Nasdaq:HSDT | TSX:HSM
