DUBLIN--()--

Mainstay Medical International plc (Bourse: MSTY)(“Mainstay” or the “Company”, Euronext Paris: MSTY.PA and ESM of the Irish Stock Exchange: MSTY.IE) announces that its subsidiary, Mainstay Medical Limited (“MML”), has entered into a new supply agreement with Centro de Construccion de Cardioestimuladores del Uruguay S.A. (“CCC”).

The supply agreement becomes effective in January 2017 and replaces the engineering agreement, which has been in place since 2010. Under the supply agreement, CCC will continue to manufacture the implantable pulse generator and certain accompanying technology, including software (“Products”), for MML’s ReActiv8® system as exclusive supplier. ReActiv8 is an implantable neurostimulation system used to treat disabling Chronic Low Back Pain.

The material terms of the supply agreement include MML’s requirement to purchase certain minimum annual purchase quantities of the Products by the end of each calendar year of the Agreement, or in the alternative, pay CCC a fixed fee to meet such obligation. Either party may terminate the supply agreement, by written notice, where the other party breaches a material provision of the supply agreement and fails to cure such breach within a defined cure period, or in the event of certain insolvency and other events. MML will indemnify CCC against various third party claims, including claims arising out of MML’s negligence, fault or wrongful conduct. The new agreement becomes effective in January 2017 and continues in force for an initial term of two years. Thereafter, the agreement will automatically be renewed for rolling additional one year term(s) unless either party notifies the other at least six months’ prior to expiry that it does not wish to renew the agreement for an additional one year term. The agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and each party submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of New York.
