The Company does not assume the obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as otherwise required by applicable law. 2

  3. An Urgent Clinical Need Exists for Improved Devices to Treat Patients with Late Stage Heart Disease Due to improved cardiovascular treatments, patients are surviving longer with heart disease. These aging patients need a new generation of therapies and treatments. 3

  4. Driven Progress to Meet that Need “Neovasc Announces Successful First Human Implant of Tiara™ Transcatheter Mitral Valve” “Cosira Study Data Confirms the Neovasc Reducer™ Improves Functional Capabilities in Refractory Angina” “Neovasc Closes $25 MM Bought Deal Equity Financing” 4

  5. Company Overview • Develop products to treat heart disease through industry partnerships and internal programs • Collaborate with leading companies and MD’s globally to bring new products to market • Product development/commercial manufacturing facilities located in Vancouver, Canada • Approximately ~150 employees –(~100 Production, ~35 R&D,~15 Support) 5

  6. Product Overview – Three Lines 1. Tissue, Development and Manufacturing (TD&M) Business • Work with industry customers to develop, supply and manufacture products incorporating our proprietary biological tissue • Funds Neovasc infrastructure and generates cash to support internal development programs 6

  7. Product Overview – Three Lines 2. Tiara™ Transcatheter Mitral Valve •First human implant-January 2014 •Recognized as a leading program 3. Reducer™ Refractory Angina Device •CE Mark received •Controlled efficacy trial completed •Entering early commercialization 7

  8. TD&M Business 8

  9. TD&M Products – Biological Tissue • Proprietary process creates implantable tissue from animal pericardium that retains strength & physical characteristics of natural tissue • Used in implantable medical devices including transcatheter heart valves • 25+ year implant history, FDA-cleared, CE-marked, EDQM-certified 9

  10. TD&M Business – Strategy Provide a turnkey service to customers developing medical devices incorporating pericardial tissue Support customers at all phases of their programs, from inception through to commercialization 10

  11. TD&M Business – Tactics • Supply generic implantable tissue (non-sterile / sterile) Early Product • Supply custom tissue (species, shape, thickness, sterility etc.) Development • Provide R&D assistance in the development of devices & Support incorporating tissue • Fabricate initial prototypes for proof of concept testing • Fabricate R&D prototypes for design evaluation / validation (R&D lab, white room, or clean room) • Undertake product performance evaluation and testing (hydrodynamic performance, wear testing, etc.) • Manufacture controlled prototypes for pre-clinical evaluation (acute / chronic animal studies) • Provide sterilization services as needed (validated if required) • Pilot manufacture of devices for clinical study / regulatory • Support for transfer to commercial manufacture and related regulatory validations • Supply of commercial quality tissue or tissue subassemblies in Commercial commercial quantities Supply • Manufacture of finished sterile product in commercial quantities 11

  12. TD&M Business – Results • Supports Neovasc infrastructure for cardiovascular device development and commercial manufacture • Generates funding for internal development program • Solid revenue growth since 2008 (~50% annual) 14 12 10 8 6 Revenues (C$M) 4 2 0 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 12

  13. Tiara™ – Transcatheter Mitral Valve 13

  14. Tiara Mitral Valve Replacement • Tiara is a novel transcatheter valve for the treatment of functional Mitral Regurgitation (MR) • MR occurs when the valve that separates the atrium from the ventricle on the left side of the heart does not close properly allowing blood to flow back into the atrium during systole Mitral regurgitation Valve does not fully close 14

  15. Tiara Market Opportunity Success of transcatheter aortic valves (TAVI) has positioned transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI) as a major area of clinical/industry interest • ~4.1 million people suffer from MR in the US • ~50% of eligible patients at high risk for surgery • ~2% annual MV surgery rate 15

  16. Tiara Key Features • Completely replaces the diseased valve • Design is specific to mitral anatomy • Anchors resist high dislodgment forces (systole) • Exerts minimal radial force on mitral annulus • Does not obstruct LVOT and preserves LV function • Quick and repeatable implantation procedure • Transapical delivery via 2” incision between ribs • No need for cardiac bypass 16

  17. Tiara First Clinical Experience • January 2014 - First Human implant of Tiara conducted by internationally recognized team at St. Paul’s Hospital, Vancouver, Canada • Initial procedures completed under compassionate use (Health Canada) regulatory approvals 17

  18. Tiara First Clinical Results • Excellent acute results from first two cases, with no procedural complications • Procedure time ~75 min total with <15 min required to enter heart through apex and implant valve • Complete resolution of MR with trivial or no PVL • Recovery of patients uneventful 18

  19. Tiara – Next Steps • Prepare regulatory applications for feasibility studies • Initiate multicenter feasibility study in Canada / EU • Investigate inclusion of US sites under US FDA Early Feasibility Study program • Refine design based on clinical experience • Expand size matrix • Upon positive feasibility studies, initiate CE mark study in 2015 19

  20. Reducer™ – Refractory Angina Therapy 20

  21. Reducer Market – Refractory Angina Constant, severe heart pain caused by inadequate blood flow to areas of the heart muscle that cannot be managed through conventional therapy. • ~2,000,000 existing “no option” refractory angina patients in US & Europe • ~400,000 new “no option” patients/year diagnosed • ~1,000,000 patients/year treated for “recurrent” angina 21

  22. Reducer Procedure • Reducer is implanted in the coronary sinus (large vein in heart) in 20 minute catheter-based procedure • Reducer’s hourglass shape modulates flow of blood in the heart to elevate CS pressure, increasing flow to ischemic areas in the endocardium Reducer modulates flow to elevate CS pressure 22

  23. Reducer Mechanism of Action • Advanced disease creates areas of ischemic myocardium causing angina pain • Elevated CS pressure causes vessels to dilate, increasing blood flow to ischemic areas Elevated pressure in coronary sinus due to Reducer Improved blood flow to ischemic area Elevated CS pressure 23

  24. Reducer COSIRA Study Double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled, multicenter prospective trial • N = 104 patients (in EU and Canada) • Patients randomized 1:1 to blinded treatment & sham control arms • Primary endpoint (achieved) was � 2 class reduction in CCS angina score at 6 months Full data set presented at ACC in March 2014 24
