A A New Appr Approach h to to HAI Challenges

Pathogens are a deadly problem 2 million $28 Billion Approximately 2 million patients suffer Direct costs of HAIs with healthcare- ranges: US $28 billion associated infections to 45 billion (HAIs) in the USA. 1 25 90,000 On any given day, about one in 25 Nearly 90,000 are hospital patients has at estimated to die. 1 least one healthcare- associated infection. 2 1: Economic burden of healthcare-associated infections: an American perspective, Patricia W Stone, PhD, FAAN, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2827870/ 2: https://www.cdc.gov/hai/surveillance/index.html 2 A NEW APPROACH TO HAI CHALLENGES / CONFIDENTIAL / WWW.HPLIGHT.COM

A new weapon: High-intensity photonics We are advancing the current state of photonics to improve our ability to inactivate viruses, bacteria and mold. Based on physics (of DNA replication), not chemistry or biology (of cell walls). 5 A NEW APPROACH TO HAI CHALLENGES / CONFIDENTIAL / WWW.HPLIGHT.COM
