HYBRID HEARING : WHEN YOU NEED MORE THAN A HEARING AID. * If you’ve been diagnosed with hearing loss but hearing aids don’t seem to be helping, our new hearing solution offers hope. Until now, hearing aids were the only choice for mild-to-moderately-severe hearing loss. But hearing aids alone are often not enough because they simply amplify sound making everything louder, including background noise. Cochlear ™ Hybrid™ Hearing is the first and only FDA-approved hearing solution that gives you back access to the sounds you’ve been missing while taking full advantage of the hearing you still have. Hearing loss can vary in degrees across the full spectrum of sound. You may be able to hear some sounds like car honks, but not high-pitched sounds like birds chirping and children’s voices. For those missing the full spectrum of sound, speech is often difficult to understand, especially in noisy situations. New Cochlear Hybrid Hearing is the only hearing solution that combines the amplification of a hearing aid with cochlear implant technology to give you access to the full spectrum of sound – in one device. So, whether you’re on the phone, in a group, listening to music or out in nature, the Cochlear ™ Nucleus ® Hybrid™ Implant System can help you hear better and more clearly than hearing aids alone – especially in noisy environments. In fact, in an FDA-approved clinical study, Hybrid System recipients reported a tenfold increase in their overall satisfaction. 10X INCREASE in their overall hearing satisfaction1 2X BETTER hearing in noise1 10X INCREASE in music satisfaction1 Along with better satisfaction and hearing ratings, Hybrid Hearing may be more affordable than hearing aids. Unlike hearing aids, hearing implants are covered by most private insurance plans, including Medicare and typically Medicaid.† * Hybrid Hearing is approved only for use with the Nucleus Hybrid L24 Implant. † The Nucleus Hybrid System may be classified as new technology by health plans and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis until universal adoption. Cochlear is being proactive in working with insurance companies to expand consideration of coverage for the Nucleus Hybrid Implant System. 03 04 “ T H I S E X P E R I E N C E H A S B E E N M I R A C U L O U S A N D L I F E - C H A N G I N G .” Ellen D – Nucleus Hybrid System recipient EXPERIENCE EVERYTHING LIFE HAS TO OFFER. If you’re struggling with hearing loss and are able to hear some sounds but not others, you’re missing out on more than you might think. Having access to the full spectrum of sound provides you with a more complete hearing experience and can enable you to understand the sounds around you, especially in noisy situations. The full spectrum of sound includes both high- and low-frequency sounds that are critical to helping you distinguish words, hear the sounds of nature and enjoy music. Low–frequency examples include a dog’s bark and a lawn mower while high-frequency sounds include sounds of nature, children’s voices and sirens. Only Cochlear Hybrid Hearing* can give you access to the sounds you’re missing, while taking advantage of the hearing you have – all in one convenient device. In fact, new Cochlear Hybrid Hearing is the first and only FDA-approved solution that uses the hearing you have and provides access to the hearing you’re missing so you can enjoy a more complete hearing experience and a richer, fuller life.

It uses the amplification of a hearing aid that helps make the sounds you do hear louder, while providing access to the sounds you’re missing through our most advanced cochlear implant technology. The unique combination of these two technologies can allow you to experience the full spectrum of sound. 06 Cochlear Implants Hearing Aids Cochlear Nucleus Hybrid Implant System Combining advanced cochlear implant technology with the amplification of a hearing aid.

HOW IT WORKS IS AMAZING. HEARING WITH THE NUCLEUS SYSTEM [ 1 ] Microphones on the Nucleus 6 Sound Processor pick up the sounds you’re missing and convert them into digital information. 3 [ 2 ] At the same time, when using Hybrid Hearing*, the acoustic component amplifies the sounds you do hear and sends them through the ear canal in the normal pathway of hearing. 1 4 5 [ 3 ] The missing sound information is transferred through the coil to the Nucleus Hybrid Implant just under the skin. [ 4 ] The Nucleus Hybrid Implant sends electrical signals down the electrode into the cochlea. 2 [ 5 ] The hearing nerve fibers in the cochlea pick up the signals, combine them with the amplified sounds and send them to the brain, which is translated as the sound you hear. The Nucleus Hybrid Implant System Includes Two Components: The Nucleus 6 Sound Processor and the Nucleus Hybrid Implant SIMPLY SMARTER HEARING The Nucleus Hybrid System features our most powerful sound processor, the Nucleus 6. The Nucleus 6 Sound Processor includes a microchip that’s 5 times more powerful than our previous sound processors, enabling advanced technologies like data logging and future upgrades.

We know how difficult it is to remember the details of how you’re using your sound processor. And with data logging, you don’t have to. Data logging is a minute-by-minute journal of how your sound processor is being used that gives your audiologist key information to help identify trends and make necessary adjustments so you’re always hearing your best. With data logging, questions that may have been difficult to answer in the past are now right at your audiologist’s fingertips, including: • Which program is being used most? • What sound environments are you experiencing the most? • How often is the volume default setting being used? 17 • What accessories are being used and how often?

WIRELESS FREEDOM WITH NO STRINGS ATTACHED. Just being able to talk on the phone like everyone else is life-changing. That’s why the Nucleus 6 Sound Processor features a telecoil so you can stay connected without having to plug into anything. But that’s just the beginning. With a simple software upgrade that’s under development,* your sound processor will directly connect to an incredibly wide range of 2.4 GHz wireless devices. That means you’ll be able to use Bluetooth-enabled music players and some hearing aids without any wires, ear buds or additional accessories hanging around your neck. And the audio signals from your TV, stereo and GPS will broadcast right to your sound processor – just like an extra speaker. So you can be a part of whatever the wireless future holds. 19 Hear the TV like everyone else when you stream directly into your sound processor. Stereo Bluetooth * Pending FDA approval for the Nucleus 6 Sound Processor. Smartphone MP3 Player Remote Assistant TWO EARS ARE BETTER THAN ONE. 20 HYBRID HEARING COMBINES THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS… AND EARS. * Hearing with both ears offers a clear advantage, especially when it comes to distinguishing where sound is coming from and understanding speech in noisy environments. As a result, many people who suffer from hearing loss benefit from hearing aids in both ears (bilateral). But when hearing aids alone are not enough, a Cochlear implant in one ear and a hearing aid in the other ear (bimodal) can be very helpful. In fact, bimodal hearing is a good solution if you have some residual hearing in the ear opposite your Cochlear implant. And with Hybrid Hearing, you can continue to experience the benefits of bimodal hearing for years to come. Whether you use a hearing aid, other hearing technology or a combination of the two, Cochlear Hybrid Hearing can work with what you have into the future.

GOOD THING HE DIDN’ T LISTEN. DR. CLARK HAS BEEN PASSIONATELY PROVING THEM WRONG FOR OVER 30 YEARS. Over thirty years ago, Dr. Graeme Clark invented the world’s first multichannel cochlear implant. He grew up in Australia with a dream of “fixing ears”. His father was deaf, so he was determined to help him and others hear. Today, Dr. Clark’s passion has brought hearing to over 250,000 people worldwide. Now you can be one of them too. 31 REFERENCES [ 1 ]FDA Panel Sponsor Executive Summary, Nucleus Hybrid L24 Implant System.

As the leading global expert in implantable hearing solutions, Cochlear is dedicated to bringing the gift of sound to people all over the world. For thirty years, Cochlear has pioneered this technology, helping more than a quarter of a million people reconnect to their families and friends. Along with the industry’s largest investment in research and development, we continue to partner with leading international researchers and hearing professionals, ensuring that we are at the forefront of hearing science. For our customers, that means access to our latest technologies throughout their lives, and the ongoing support they need. That is why seven out of ten people worldwide who choose a cochlear implant choose Cochlear as their hearing partner.* As your partner in hearing for life, Cochlear believes it is important that you understand not only the benefits, but also the potential risks associated with any cochlear implant or hybrid implant. You should talk to your hearing healthcare provider about who is a candidate for a cochlear implant or a hybrid implant. Before any surgery, it is important to talk to your doctor about CDC guidelines for pre-surgical vaccinations. Cochlear implants and hybrid Implants are contraindicated for patients with lesions of the auditory nerve, active ear infections or active disease of the middle ear. Cochlear implantation and hybrid implantation are surgical procedures, and carry with them the risks typical of surgery. You may lose residual hearing in the implanted ear. Electrical stimulation may result in some side effects, including ringing in the ear, stimulation of the facial nerve; in rare cases this may cause pain. Though rare, it is possible that additional surgery may be required at some point to resolve complications with a cochlear implant or hybrid implant.
