AID EliSpot Reader classic (ELR07) The basic 96-well plate EliSpot Reader This is the classic AID EliSpot reader type. The device is fast, efficient, user-friendly and has become the most successful EliSpot reader development in the EliSpot market. By the end of 2011 more than 450 researchers all across the continent are using this particular device. The AID EliSpot Reader classic interprets any type of EliSpot plate, including all brands of membrane type plates, ELISA-style plates and low volume plates. Both, software and hardware are fully compliant with 21CFR part11, GMP/GLP and CE. The reader simultaneously takes high resolution images, auto centers the well and counts according to the user s settings. In addition the count results can automatically be analyzed with the integrated rule compiler. All in all data acquisition is fully automatic. Counting results and all other parameters can also be exported to txt-files, dbase, Excel, PowerPoint, LIMS, AIDiagnostics or EliStat. Processing time including saving and data export is less than 2 minutes per plate. The system is extremely compact with a footprint of only 43 cm. Key features of the AID EliSpot System ELR07 < 2 min for complete interpretation (incl. image capturing, counting and analyzing) of an enzymatic 96-well plate High resolution images with a 5 megapixel, fire wire connected digital camera TMCM 2-axis precision ball-bearing stage, impact-protected, Custom made optics LED Ring Illumination Page 2 of 26

AID ispot Reader (ELR07IFL) The basic EliSpot/FluoroSpot Reader The AID ispot machine is one of the most successful EliSpot/FluoroSpot Reader developments in recent years. The AID ispot system for the first time allows analyzing both: Enzymatic and fluorescent (FluoroSpot) based EliSpot assays. The AID ispot Reader comprises the same outstanding functionality, such as layout-generator, rule-compiler, various export possibilities etc., as the AID EliSpot Reader Classic System. Beside all of the popular functions of the AID EliSpot Classic Reader, the ispot Reader simultaneously allows for 2 or even 3-colour FluoroSpot analysis. A simple two-click switch between fluorescent and enzymatic mode, without the need of hardware changes, is enough to come from one mode to the other. Since 2006 when the first machine was launched, more than 150 labs are already working with this hybrid EliSpot/FluoroSpot Reader. Key features of the AID ispot System ELR07IFL EliSpot and FluoroSpot interpretation LED Ring Illumination, 3&1 filter wheel Narrow band fluorescent filters (FITC and Cy3) on board, a third filter on demand Digital Firewire Camera, 1600x1200 pix, Color, optimized for fluorescent counting Optimized for 2- and 3-colour analysis Software-controlled camera-focus Speed:<6 min for an two-color FluoroSpot plate, < 2 min for an EliSpot plate Page 5 of 26

The AID EliSpot/FluoroSpot Reader software Elated from the experience and feedback of more than 500 AID EliSpot users all over the globe we are continuously improving the successful AID EliSpot software and are proud to present Version 7.0 of our user-friendly software. Changes are mainly made in data handling, fulfilling the need of our customers to enhance working with their data generated by the reader, especially in long-term studies. In addition Version 7 contains a module enabling for fluorescent multiple-color counting (FluoroSpot) when using an AID ispot system or higher. All AID software solutions are integrated in the package. No need for extra software modules and extra charge. Even the external evaluation modules such as the AIDiagnostics and the EliStat modul are included. All systems are running under Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) but can still be used under a Win XP environment.

Validation on the AID Elispot/FluoroSpot Reader Systems CE Since 1998 AID's QM (Quality Management) complies with the German Law on Medical Products (Medizinproduktegesetz). AID products carrying the CE sign can be sold without further validation anywhere in the EU (European Union). GMP GMP is as a standard included in the German law on Pharmaceutical products (Arzneimittelgesetz) with which we comply. DIN EN ISO 9001 Our QM System complies with the ISO 9001 since 1998 which was superseded by the DIN EN ISO 13485, year 2003 edition. DIN EN ISO 60601-1-4 This is the validation for Software and Hardware for medical products. This internationally accepted norm is largely identical to FDA requirements. 21CFR Part 11 These are the specification for equipment used in clinical trials. This stresses requirements such as data organisation, audit trail and electronic signatures. We meet these requirements since the 3.0 AID EliSpot Software update. All audits were carried out by the certifying organization DQS (Deutsche Gesellschaft zur Zertifizierung von Managementsystemen mbh). Page 23 of 26
