Vicarious Surgical Minimally Invasive Surgery Small incisions, but limited anatomical access, visualization and reach, especially in the abdomen. Open Surgery Full anatomical access, but high complications and difficult recovery. Today, Surgeons Choose Between Anatomical Access & Invasiveness Result: Many abdominal surgeries are still performed open, despite the known and agreed upon benefits of MIS. "We eliminate the tradeoff: open - surgery experience through a single incision."

Vicarious Surgical Legacy Robot Adoption is Heavily Concentrated in Prostatectomy Not By Design, But By Limitation Current Robotics: Prostatectomy: Built as a General - Purpose System Multi - port entry, rigid arms, and limited freedom of motion. One size fits all approach. The Dominant Robotic Procedure >95% adoption rate 1 Confined pelvic anatomy aligns with robot's strengths: ● Operates well in a small, narrow space ● Straightforward setup & triangulation ● Stable visualization ● Tremor reduction "There is potential upside in procedures that don't fit existing systems." 1: BERNSTEIN US ROBOTIC - ASSISTED SURGERY TAM MODEL - 12 MARCH 2021.

Vicarious Surgical Simplify access, Amplify Performance. "Single - Port docking may streamline setup and improves procedural efficiency compared with traditional multi - port docking." Current Robotic Systems Multi - Port Docking is Cumbersome: ● Pre - op planning required ● External and internal collisions ● Poor bedside access ● Incision site trauma Single - Port Docking is Efficient: ● No pre - op planning ● Collision free surgery ● Superior bedside access ● Limited incision site trauma Vicarious Surgical

Vicarious Surgical We Are Launching in Ventral Hernia Repair Starting Where Others Can't Go: Redefining Abdominal Access With the ability to work up, down and even backwards, Vicarious Surgical can reach areas of the abdominal wall that are currently difficult or even impossible with other systems . The anterior abdominal wall is a conundrum for "straight", rigid technology and as a result 66 % of all Ventral Hernias in the U . S . are still performed open . 1 Vicarious Surgical's unique capabilities may lead to better patient outcomes and operational efficiency in a procedure where it matters most.

Vicarious Surgical Surgeons Validate the Vision of Vicarious Surgical The next frontier of robotic surgery is here and I look forward to the continued development of the innovative Vicarious Surgical robotic system." – Igor Belyansky, MD It's very exciting, very exciting. I like the fact that you can work backward, and that is a huge improvement for (abdominal surgery) because instead of working straight, you have the ability to articulate the instruments in any configuration. That is a major, major advantage in hernia surgery. The ability to suture so the angles are much better is a leap forward." – General Surgeon, large AMC\* That's a huge innovation compared to what we have right now, which is a very long straight shaft and only wristed instruments. Having those shoulders gives you that ability to separate yourself and still triangulate and not crash into yourself. So that innovation is fantastic." – Gynecologic Surgeon, Community Hospital \*AMC= ACADEMIC MEDICAL CENTER
