Dear Healthcare Professional,

Important Announcement Regarding the Deltec Cozmo^® Insulin Pump

As you may have heard or read recently, Smiths Medical is planning to discontinue selling the Deltec Cozmo^® insulin pump. This decision will apply to new customers as well as to current customers who wish to replace their pump at the end of their current warranty periods. We remain committed to excellent customer service and will provide ongoing support for the balance of the current warranty periods of the pumps used by your patients.

The Deltec Cozmo^® insulin pump remains an excellent choice in the management of diabetes. Let me assure you that we will honor pump warranties and we will ensure the availability of cartridges and infusion sets. Please continue to contact your local Smiths Medical distributor for any assistance that you may require.

However, when a patient's Deltec Cozmo^® insulin pump approaches the end of its warranty period and it is time to decide on a replacement, you will need to advise your patient concerning the selection of a pump from another manufacturer. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us or you may visit www.DeltecCozmoUpdate.com for more detailed information about this important announcement.

Yours faithfully,

Richard Thomas
Vice President, Global Diabetes
Smiths Medical
