The accompanying Notes are an integral part of these Consolidated Financial Statements. 5 NMT MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1. OPERATIONS NMT Medical, Inc. (formerly Nitinol Medical Technologies, Inc.) (the Company or NMT) designs, develops and markets innovative medical devices that utilize advanced technologies and are delivered by minimally invasive procedures. The Company's products are designed to offer alternative approaches to existing complex treatments, thereby reducing patient trauma, shortening procedure, hospitalization and recovery times and lowering overall treatment costs. The Company's patented medical devices include self-expanding stents, vena cava filters and cardiac septal repair devices. The Company's stents have been commercially launched in Europe and in the United States (U.S.) for certain indications, its vena cava filters are marketed in the U.S. and abroad and the CardioSEAL(R) Septal Occluder is sold commercially in the U.S., for certain humanitarian uses only, and in Europe and other international markets. Through its neuroscience business unit, the Company develops, manufactures, markets and sells specialty devices for neurosurgery, including cerebral spinal fluid shunts on the Spetzler(TM) Titanium Aneurysm Clip. On April 5, 2000, the Company sold the U.K. operations of its neurosciences business unit, including the Selector(R) Ultrasonic Aspirator, Ruggles(TM) surgical instruments and cryosurgery product lines and certain assets and liabilities for approximately $12.0 million in cash (see Note 4). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. 2. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2001 and for the three month period then ended are unaudited. In management's opinion, these unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2000, and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report of Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2000. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. 3. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of the following: March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ---------- ----------- Components $1,766,310 $1,723,209 Finished goods 1,458,673 1,717,045 ---------- ---------- $3,224,983 $3,440,254 ========== ========== Finished goods consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead. 4. SALE OF U.K. OPERATIONS OF NEUROSCIENCES BUSINESS UNIT On April 5, 2000, the Company sold the U.K. operations of its neurosciences business unit including the Selector(R) Ultrasonic Aspirator, Ruggles(TM) Surgical Instruments and cryosurgery businesses and certain assets and liabilities for $12.0 million in cash. The Company recorded an estimated $3.5 million loss on the anticipated sale in the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company recorded a gain upon the ultimate disposition of these operations of approximately $345,000 in the year ended December 31, 6 NMT MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued) 4. SALE OF U.K. OPERATIONS OF NEUROSCIENCES BUSINESS UNIT - (continued) 2000, representing a revision of those estimates made concerning the costs associated with the sale. The total net loss of $3.2 million was comprised of net proceeds of approximately $12.0 million less estimated transaction and other costs of $3.8 million, and net assets sold of $11.4 million. 5. SETTLEMENT OF LITIGATION On July 17, 2000, Sodem Diffusion SA ("Sodem") filed a claim with the Tribunal de Premiere Instance in Geneva, Switzerland, alleging that NMT NeuroSciences Implants ("NMT France"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, breached its obligations under an exclusive distribution agreement, dated as of November 10, 1998, pursuant to which NMT France was acting as the exclusive worldwide distributor of Sodem's products. Sodem sought approximately $18 million in damages in addition to costs and fees of their attorneys. NMT France filed a counterclaim for approximately $30 million plus costs. On February 23, 2001, NMT France and Sodem settled the litigation, resulting in a charge of $673,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, including payment of a $500,000 settlement fee paid to Sodem in February 2001. 6. DEBT OBLIGATIONS (a) Subordinated Note Payable The Company financed a significant portion of its 1998 acquisition of the neurosurgical instruments business of Elekta AB (PUBL) (Elekta) with $20 million of subordinated debt borrowed from an affiliate of a significant stockholder of the Company. The subordinated debt is due September 30, 2003 with quarterly interest payable at 10.101% per annum and is subject to certain covenants, as amended. On September 13, 1999, the Company made a principal payment of $8 million in conjunction with the Senior Secured Debt (see Note 6(b)). The Company also used $6 million of its own cash to further reduce the principal amount of this note. In April 2000, the Company paid down $500,000 of this note with the proceeds from the sale of the U.K. operations of its neurosciences business unit. In January 2001 the Company paid down $200,000 of this note with the proceeds from its December 2000 sale of its investment in Image Technologies Corporation. At March 31, 2001 the outstanding balance of this note was $5,300,000 net of approximately $491,000 of unamortized original issue discount. Additionally, subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Company paid down $800,000 of this note in connection with the terms of the December 31, 2000 amendment of the subordinated note. (b) Senior Secured Debt On September 13, 1999, the Company entered into a $10 million senior secured debt facility with a bank, $8 million of the proceeds of which was used to reduce the principal amount of the Company's subordinated note payable (see Note 6(a)). In April 2000, the Company paid down this note in its entirety from the proceeds obtained in connection with the sale of part of its neurosciences business unit (see Note 4). (c) Lines of Credit In September 2000, the Company entered into an equipment lease financing facility providing for borrowings of up to $250,000. Leases under this agreement are payable in equal monthly installments over 36 months. There were no borrowings under this facility as of March 31, 2001. Approximately $130,000 of equipment purchases at March 31, 2001 will be financed under this facility. 7. NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE Basic and diluted net income per share are presented in conformity with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, for all periods presented. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, basic net income per share was determined by dividing net income available for common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share was determined by dividing net income available for common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including potential common shares from exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury method, if dilutive. Options 7 NMT MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued) 7. NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE - (continued) and warrants to purchase a total of 2,297,301 and 801,651 common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, as they are antidilutive. 8. FOREIGN CURRENCY The accounts of the Company's subsidiaries are translated in accordance with SFAS No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation. Accordingly, the accounts of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated from their local currency, which is the functional currency, into U.S. dollars, the reporting currency, using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Income and expense accounts are translated using an average rate of exchange during the period. Cumulative foreign currency translation gains or losses are reflected as a separate component of consolidated stockholders' equity (see Note 9). The cumulative foreign currency loss amounted to ($1,721,000) and ($1,540,000) as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. Additionally, the Company had foreign currency exchange transaction gains of approximately $41,000 and $133,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses result from differences in exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency in which a transaction is denominated and are included in the consolidated statement of operations in the period in which the exchange rate changes. 9. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The only components of comprehensive income (loss) reported by the Company are net income and foreign currency translation adjustments. For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- Net income $ 246,104 $ 68,106 Foreign currency translation adjustments (181,221) (614,960) ---------- ---------- Comprehensive income (loss) $ 64,883 $ (546,854) ========== ========== 10. ACCRUED EXPENSES Accrued expenses consist of the following: March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- Payroll and payroll related $1,646,391 $1,765,165 Taxes 480,471 446,944 Legal settlement - 628,000 Other accrued expenses 2,419,773 2,388,737 ---------- ---------- $4,546,635 $5,228,846 ========== ========== 8 NMT MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued) 11. Segment Reporting The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, during the fourth quarter of 1998. SFAS No. 131 established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. It also established standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company's chief operating decision making group is the Chief Executive Officer, members of Senior Management, and the Board of Directors. The operating segments are managed separately because each represents specific types of medical devices for specific markets (i.e., the cardiovascular segment includes minimally-invasive medical devices that were the primary products of the Company prior to the acquisition of ENI, the neurosurgical instruments business of Elekta, while the neurosurgical segment includes primarily neurosurgical medical devices that were the primary products of ENI). The Company's operating segments include the cardiovascular business unit and the neuroscience business unit. Revenues for the cardiovascular business unit are derived from sales of the Simon Nitinol Filter(R) (SNF) and the CardioSEAL(R) Septal Occluder, as well as from licensing revenues from the Company's self-expanding stents. Revenues for the neurosciences business unit are derived from sales of cerebral spinal fluid shunts and Spetzler(TM) Titanium Aneurysm Clips. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance based on stand-alone operating segment net income. Revenues are attributed to geographic areas based on where the customer is located. Segment information is presented as follows: For The Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 2000 ----------- ----------- Segment Revenues: Cardiovascular products $ 5,907,338 $ 5,134,060 Neurosciences products 4,441,000 4,871,000 ----------- ----------- Total $10,348,338 $10,005,060 =========== =========== Segment Interest Income: Cardiovascular products $ 62,426 $ 9,744 Neurosciences products 20,000 -- ----------- ----------- Total $ 82,426 $ 9,744 =========== =========== Segment Interest Expense: Cardiovascular products $ 213,099 $ 297,651 Neurosciences products 9,000 62,000 ----------- ----------- Total $ 222,099 $ 359,651 =========== =========== Segment Depreciation and Amortization: Cardiovascular products $ 158,920 $ 175,864 Neurosciences products 22,000 217,000 ----------- ----------- Total $ 180,920 $ 392,864 =========== =========== 9 NMT MEDICAL, INC.

Contingencies The Company is a party to the following legal proceedings that could have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations or liquidity if there were an adverse outcome. Although the Company intends to pursue its rights in each of these matters vigorously, it cannot predict the ultimate outcomes. In December 1998, the Company filed a patent infringement suit in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts (the "Court") against AGA Medical Corp. ("AGA"), claiming that AGA's Amplatzer aperture occlusion devices infringe U.S. Patent No. 5,108,420, which is licensed exclusively to the Company. The Company is seeking an injunction to prevent further infringement as well as monetary damages. In April 1999, AGA served its Answer and Counterclaims denying liability and alleging that the Company has engaged in false or misleading advertising and in unfair or deceptive business practices. AGA's counterclaims seek an injunction and an unspecified amount of damages. In May 1999, the Company answered AGA's counterclaims denying liability. On April 25, 2001, the Court granted the Company's motion to stay all proceedings in this matter pending reexamination of the `420 patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. In papers dated November 24, 1999, Elekta AB (publ) filed a request for arbitration in the London Court of International Arbitration ("LCIA") alleging that the Company breached its payment obligation under the Sale and Purchase Agreement between the parties dated May 8, 1998 pursuant to which the Company purchased certain assets from Elekta. On January 14, 2000, the Company filed its response with the LCIA in which the Company denied Elekta's claims and indicated that it would assert a counterclaim for Elekta's breach of the same contract. As currently pleaded, Elekta's claim seeks approximately $2 million in damages and NMT's counterclaim seeks approximately $2 million in damages. On January 17-19, 2001, the arbitrator conducted a hearing on preliminary legal issues. On March 15, 2001, the Arbitrator issued a partial award which for the most part clarified certain legal issues without deciding the merits of either Elekta's claims or the Company's counterclaims. The Arbitrator did dismiss an approximate $314,000 portion of NMT's counter claim, but indicated, however, that $289,000 of that portion may still be recoverable by NMT in litigation outside the Arbitration process as "ordinary trade debts". The hearing on the merits of Elekta's claims and the Company's counterclaims has not been scheduled. On August 11, 2000, the Company filed a demand for arbitration before the American Arbitration Association seeking a determination that Bard did not have distribution rights to the Company's Recovery Filter(TM) under their 1992 U.S. distribution agreement (the "1992 Agreement"). Bard filed a counterclaim seeking a contrary declaration and an indeterminate amount of damages. On May 3, 2001, the Arbitration Tribunal indicated orally that it considers the Recovery Filter a Product as defined in the 1992 Agreement. The parties are currently in discussions relating to the settlement of the remaining issues in the arbitration, for which hearings are otherwise scheduled to begin May 30, 2001. Other than as described above, the Company has no material pending legal proceedings. 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than the historical financial information, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties or other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievement of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievement expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include uncertainties in market demand and acceptance, government regulation and approvals, and intellectual property rights and litigation; the impact of healthcare reform programs and competitive products and pricing; risks associated with technology and product development and commercialization, potential product liability, management of growth, and dependence on significant corporate relationships, and other risks detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, as amended by Amendment No.1 thereto on Form 10-K/A. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. The results of operations for the three- month period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full fiscal year. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 REVENUES. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased 3% to $10.3 million from $10.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Product sales increased 4% to $10.1 million compared to $9.8 million. An approximately $900,000 increase in CardioSEAL(R) Septal Occluder product sales was partially offset by an approximately $100,000 decrease in vena cava filter sales and a $500,000 decrease in product sales from the neurosciences business unit. License fees and royalties for the three months ended March 31, 2001 decreased 18.1% to $204,000 from $249,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 due to reduced sales by Boston Scientific Corporation of the Company's stent products. COST OF PRODUCT SALES. Cost of product sales increased by $139,000 to approximately $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 from approximately $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Cost of product sales, as a percent of product sales, decreased marginally to 41.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to 41.3 % for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The slight decrease in cost of product sales as a percent of product sales in 2001 is primarily attributable to a continuing shift of the product sales mix in favor of the Company's CardioSEAL(R) Septal Occluders which have a lower product cost as a percent of sales than the Company's other product lines offset by higher royalty rates under the Company's amended license agreement with Children's Medical Center Corporation relating to CardioSEAL(R) sales. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense decreased by 14% or $175,000 to approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 from approximately $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to reduced contract management, clinical monitoring, data management and biostatisical analysis in support of the FDA approval process for various medical use applications of the CardioSEAL(R) and StarFlex(TM) products. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses increased by 9% to $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 from $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to a significant increase in legal fees associated with ongoing litigation, arbitration and general corporate matters partially offset by reduced headcount and reduced depreciation and amortization expense in the neurosciences business unit related to an asset impairment write-down in the second quarter of 2000. SELLING AND MARKETING. Selling and marketing expenses increased by 5% to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 from $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to increased salaries, commissions and travel associated with the development of a direct sales force for the CardioSEAL(R) products in the United States and Europe. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2001 decreased by 38% to $222,000 from $360,000 for 11 the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease is attributable to the repayments of $7.3 million and $500,000 of the senior secured debt and the subordinated note, respectively, on April 5, 2000 in connection with the sale of the U.K operations of the Company's neurosciences business unit partially offset by a writedown of a prorated amount of original issue discount in connection with the January 2001 repayment of $200,000 of the subordinated note. See Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased to $82,000 from $10,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to increased cash balances derived principally from the net proceeds, after debt repayments, from the sale of the U.K. operations of the Company's neurosciences business unit. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6.6 million at March 31, 2001 as compared to $6.8 million as of December 31, 2000. During three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company's operations provided cash of approximately $204,000 which consisted of approximately $246,000 of net income and approximately $247,000 of net noncash charges, offset by a $289,000 net decrease in cash related to working capital items, which included a payment of $500,000 in settlement of litigation (see Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). In July 1998, the Company financed a portion of the acquisition of ENI, the neurosurgical instruments business of Elekta (ENI), with $16.1 million of the Company's cash and a $20 million subordinated note issued to an affiliate of a significant stockholder of the Company (see Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The subordinated note is due September 30, 2003 with quarterly interest payable at 10.101% per annum. On September 13, 1999, the Company entered into a $10 million senior secured debt facility with a bank, $8 million of the proceeds of which was used to reduce the principal amount of the $20 million subordinated note. The Company also used $6 million of its own cash to further reduce the principal amount of the $20 million subordinated note. The remaining $2 million of the senior secured debt facility was available to be drawn down by the Company for working capital purposes, as needed. The facility had a term of three years with interest payable monthly at the bank's prime lending rate on U.S. borrowings and an equivalent market rate on foreign currency borrowings. In April 2000, the Company used the proceeds from the sale of the U.K. operations and certain other assets of the neurosciences business unit (see Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) to reduce the subordinated note payable by $500,000 and to repay the entire senior secured debt balance of $7.3 million. In September 2000, the working capital portion of the senior secured debt facility was terminated by the bank. In January 2001 the company repaid $200,000 of the subordinated note from the proceeds of the December 2000 sale of its investment in Image Technologies Corporation. At March 31, 2001, the Company was in compliance with its subordinated debt covenants, amended as of December 31, 2000, relating to maintenance of tangible net equity and income before interest, taxes and depreciation. In addition, the subordinated debt covenants relating to maintenance of certain ratios, tangible net equity and income were amended for 2001. In connection with this amendment the Company, subsequent to March 31, 2001, repaid an additional $800,000 of the subordinated note. Purchases of property and equipment for use in the Company's manufacturing, research and development and general and administrative activities amounted to $110,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. In September 2000, the Company entered into a new equipment financing agreement for up to a maximum of $250,000 of purchases based upon a 3-year term. As of March 31, 2001 approximately $130,000 of purchases were in the process of being financed under this arrangement, leaving approximately $120,000 available to finance future equipment purchases. The Company is party to various contractual arrangements including royalty arrangements and employment and consulting agreements with current employees and consultants. Minimum guaranteed royalty payments for the balance of 2001 are approximately $120,000. The Company also has committed to purchase certain minimum quantities of the vena cava filter component from a supplier through June 2001, which agreement has been extended through December 2001. All of these arrangements require cash payments by the Company over varying periods of time. Certain of these arrangements are cancelable on short notice and certain require termination or severance payments as part of any early termination. The Company may require additional funds for its research and product development programs, preclinical and clinical testing, operating expenses, regulatory processes, manufacturing and marketing programs and potential licenses and acquisitions. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders, and additional debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants. The Company's capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the sales of its products, the progress of its research and development programs, the progress of clinical testing, the time and cost involved in obtaining regulatory approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights, 12 competing technological and market developments, developments and changes in the Company's existing research, licensing and other relationships and the terms of any collaborative, licensing and other similar arrangements that the Company may establish. The Company believes that existing cash and cash expected to be generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its working capital, financing and capital expenditure requirements through at least 2001. EURO CONVERSION On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union adopted the "euro" as their national currency unit and irrevocably established fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies and the euro. During the three-year transition period between January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2002, the euro will be a "cashless" currency, existing only as a unit of account. Payments made to accounts in these member states may be made either in the denominated legacy currency unit of the account or in euros. Beginning on January 1, 2002, euro banknotes and coins will be introduced, and legacy currency banknotes and coins will be withdrawn from circulation. No later than July 1, 2002, the euro will be the sole national currency unit in these member states, and the legacy currency banknotes and coins will no longer be accepted as legal tender. The Company conducts a substantial portion of its business within the member countries of the European Union, and accordingly its existing systems are generally capable of accommodating multiple currencies, including the euro. The Company is assessing the potential impact from the euro conversion in a number of areas, including the following: (1) the competitive impact of cross- border price transparency, which may make it more difficult for businesses to charge different prices for the same products on a country-by-country basis; (2) the impact on currency exchange costs and currency exchange rate risk; and (3) the impact on existing contracts. As of March 31, 2001, the impact of the euro conversion has not had a material impact on the operations of the Company. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. The Company is subject to market risk in the form of interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. Interest rate risk is immaterial to the Company. Although the Company has decreased its international operations following the sale of the UK operations of its neurosciences business unit and consistently reduced its foreign currency exposure, it remains an international concern. Accordingly, the Company faces exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time and could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition. The Company's most significant foreign currency exposures relate to its manufacturing activities and assets in France. The Company translates the accounts of its foreign subsidiaries in accordance with SFAS No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation. In translating these foreign currency accounts into U.S. dollars, assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange in effect at the end of each reporting period, while stockholders' equity is translated at historical rates. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using the weighted average exchange rate in effect during the year. The Company records the effects of changes in balance sheet items (i.e., cumulative foreign currency translation gains and losses) as a component of consolidated stockholders' equity. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is a party to the following legal proceedings that could have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations or liquidity if there were an adverse outcome. Although the Company intends to pursue its rights in each of these matters vigorously, it cannot predict the ultimate outcomes. In December 1998, the Company filed a patent infringement suit in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts (the "Court") against AGA Medical Corp. ("AGA"), claiming that AGA's Amplatzer aperture occlusion devices infringe U.S. Patent No. 5,108,420, which is licensed exclusively to the Company. The Company is seeking an injunction to prevent further infringement as well as monetary damages. In April 1999, AGA served its Answer and Counterclaims denying liability and alleging that the Company has engaged in false or misleading advertising and in unfair or deceptive business practices. AGA's counterclaims seek an injunction and an unspecified amount of damages. In May 1999, the Company answered AGA's counterclaims denying liability. On April 25, 2001, the Court granted the Company's motion to stay all proceedings in this matter pending reexamination of the `420 patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. 13 In papers dated November 24, 1999, Elekta AB (publ) filed a request for arbitration in the London Court of International Arbitration ("LCIA") alleging that the Company breached its payment obligation under the Sale and Purchase Agreement between the parties dated May 8, 1998 pursuant to which the Company purchased certain assets from Elekta. On January 14, 2000, the Company filed its response with the LCIA in which the Company denied Elekta's claims and indicated that it would assert a counterclaim for Elekta's breach of the same contract. As currently pleaded, Elekta's claim seeks approximately $2 million in damages and NMT's counterclaim seeks approximately $2 million in damages. On January 17-19, 2001, the arbitrator conducted a hearing on preliminary legal issues. On March 15, 2001, the Arbitrator issued a partial award which for the most part clarified certain legal issues without deciding the merits of either Elekta's claims or the Company's counterclaims. The Arbitrator did dismiss an approximate $314,000 portion of NMT's counter claim, but indicated, however, that $289,000 of that portion may still be recoverable by NMT in litigation outside the Arbitration process as "ordinary trade debts". The hearing on the merits of Elekta's claims and the Company's counterclaims has not been scheduled. On August 11, 2000, the Company filed a demand for arbitration before the American Arbitration Association seeking a determination that Bard did not have distribution rights to the Company's Recovery Filter(TM) under their 1992 U.S. distribution agreement (the "1992 Agreement"). Bard filed a counterclaim seeking a contrary declaration and an indeterminate amount of damages. On May 3, 2001, the Arbitration Tribunal indicated orally that it considers the Recovery Filter a Product as defined in the 1992 Agreement. The parties are currently in discussions relating to the settlement of the remaining issues in the arbitration, for which hearings are otherwise scheduled to begin May 30, 2001. Other than as described above, the Company has no material pending legal proceedings. ITEM 6.

The principal amount of this Note and any interest shall be payable on or before February 14, 2003.

Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed. All payments by the Maker under this Note shall be in immediately available funds. This Note shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand upon the occurrence at any time of any of the following events of default (individually, "an Event of Default" and collectively, "Events of Default"): (1) default in the payment or performance of this or any other liability or obligation of the Maker to the holder, including the payment when due of any principal, premium or interest under this Note; (2) the liquidation, termination of existence, dissolution, insolvency or business failure of the Maker, or the appointment of a receiver or custodian for the Maker or any part of its property; or (3) the institution by or against the Maker or any indorser or guarantor of this Note of any proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally or the making by the Maker or any indorser or guarantor of this Note of a composition or an assignment or trust mortgage for the benefit of creditors.

All payments by the Maker under this Note shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and be free and clear and without any deduction or withholding for any taxes or fees of any nature whatever, unless the obligation to make such deduction or withholding is imposed by law.
