EXHIBIT 10.1

C.Motiva Hybrid Bundle. Notwithstanding anything set forth in the Agreement to the contrary, except as expressly set forth below, Distributor may not sell or otherwise distribute Products on a stand-alone basis. Instead, all sales and/or distribution of Products by Distributor (and its sub-distributors) under the Agreement shall be limited to Products being bundled and used solely with Motiva® breast implants on a [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] basis (“Motiva Hybrid Bundle”); provided, however, the following exceptions shall apply: [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED]

D.No Further Minimum Purchase Requirements. Notwithstanding anything set forth in the Agreement to the contrary, including without limitation Section 3.2 and the Schedules thereof, there shall be no minimum Product purchase requirements on Distributor for the remainder of the Term and any and all prior unfulfilled minimum purchase requirements under the Agreement (including orders not placed by Distributor, orders that have not been fully delivered to Distributor, or amounts payable to Puregraft for orders, or portions thereof, not accepted by Distributor prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date) are hereby excused and forgiven and no further action shall be taken by either Party in relation thereto. The Parties do not intend for Distributor to purchase any additional Products during the remainder of the term of the Agreement; provided, however, in the event Distributor desires to purchase additional Products from Puregraft during the remainder of the term of the Agreement, the Parties will work in good faith for the purchase/supply of such additional Products pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

E.Puregraft Repurchase of Inventory. Puregraft agrees to repurchase from Distributor [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] of Puregraft 250 Products and [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] of Puregraft 850 Products (collectively the “Repurchased Products”), subject to the following:

1.Pricing: The re-purchase pricing for Puregraft 250 Products shall be [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED]. The re-purchase pricing for Puregraft 850 Products shall be [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED]. The foregoing prices shall be all-in and inclusive of taxes, tariffs, shipping, or other reasonable amounts.

2.Delivery: The Repurchased Products must be in their original, unopened and non-damaged packaging, and will be delivered, at Distributor’s sole cost and expense (DDP, Incoterms 2020), from Distributor’s Belgium-based warehouse to Puregraft’s distribution center in Germany (“Delivery”). Distributor will ship the Repurchased Products no later than ten (10) business days after the Second Amendment Effective Date.

3.Shelf-Life: Each Repurchased Product shall, upon Delivery to Puregraft, have at least twenty-four (24) months of remaining shelf-life.

4.Inspection: Puregraft may inspect any or all shipments of Repurchased Products within ten (10) business days of Puregraft’s receipt of each shipment (the “Inspection Period”) to confirm compliance with this Section 2.E., and Puregraft has the right to reject, via notification to Distributor within the Inspection Period, any or all of a shipment of Repurchased Products that fails to satisfy such requirements. In the event Puregraft does not provide notification of rejection prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, then the applicable Repurchased Products delivered to Puregraft shall be deemed accepted by Puregraft. In the event Puregraft timely rejects any Repurchased Products pursuant to this Section 2.E.iv. (“Rejected Repurchased Products”), Distributor may, in its sole discretion, promptly replace the Rejected Repurchased Products with other Repurchased Products (which shall continue to be subject to the terms of the Section 2.E.).

5.Invoicing and Payment: Distributor will invoice Puregraft for the total repurchase price of the Repurchased Products pursuant to this Section 2.E in [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] equal installments. Distributor will issue the first invoice upon

EXHIBIT 10.1

Delivery and the remaining [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] invoices will be issued over the [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] consecutive calendar quarters following the Second Amendment Effective Date. Puregraft will pay each invoice for accepted Repurchased Products within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of such invoice.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that, commencing six (6) months after the Second Amendment Effective Date, Puregraft shall, at Distributor’s sole discretion, buy back up to an additional [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] units of Puregraft 250 Products and [COMMERCIALLY SENSITIVE INFORMATION REDACTED] units of Puregraft 850 Products from Distributor during the remainder of the Term in accordance with the applicable terms of this Section 2.E. Such additional repurchased Products shall be deemed Repurchased Products hereunder.

F.Reports and Audit Rights. Within fifteen (15) business days following the end of each calendar quarter during the remaining Term, Distributor will provide to Puregraft, a report detailing its sales and other distribution activities under this Second Amendment. Each such report shall solely (i) identify the Products sold/distributed during such calendar quarter, (ii) minimal, de-identified, general information about the Customer(s), and (iii) shall include the information Distributor reasonably believes necessary to verify Distributor’s compliance with the Motiva Hybrid Bundle requirements under Section 2.C. above. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any and all such reports are the Confidential Information of Distributor. Without limiting the foregoing, during the remaining Term, and for a period of one (1) year thereafter (“Audit Period”), Distributor will keep and maintain accurate and detailed books and records reasonably necessary for a neutral, mutually agreed upon third party (the “Report Auditor”) to verify Distributor’s compliance with the requirements under this Second Amendment. Puregraft will have the right, no more than once during any twelve (12) month period during the Audit Period, upon fifteen (15) business days’ prior written notice to Distributor, to use the Report Auditor to inspect and audit Distributor’s books and records during normal business hours and on agreed upon dates for the sole purpose of verifying Distributor’s compliance with the requirements under this Second Amendment. The Report Auditor shall enter into confidentiality agreements with Distributor in a form reasonably suitable to Distributor. Each audit engaged by Puregraft will be conducted at Puregraft’s expense; provided, however, if any audit reveals that Distributor has failed to comply with the requirements under this Second Amendment, in any material respect, Distributor will reimburse Puregraft for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Puregraft in connection with such audit(s). Without limiting any of Puregraft’s rights or remedies under the Agreement or otherwise, Distributor shall promptly take all commercially reasonable actions to remedy any non-conformance or non-compliance revealed during an audit.

SECTION 3: RELEASE OF CLAIMS

A.Release of Claims. Each Party, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, and its and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, stockholders, members, employees, representatives, attorneys, agents, successors, heirs, and assigns (collectively, the “Releasors”), hereby fully and forever releases and discharges the other Party and its affiliates, and its and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, stockholders, members, employees, representatives, attorneys, agents, successors, heirs, and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all claims, demands, actions, agreements, suits, causes of action, obligations, controversies, debts, costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses, damages, judgments, orders and liabilities of whatever kind or nature in law, equity or otherwise, past, present or future, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, concerning the Disputed Performance Obligations from the beginning of time until the Second Amendment Effective Date, arising out of or in connection with the Agreement (collectively, the “Claims”), except for any claims that cannot be waived by law or claims for enforcement of this release.

B.Waiver of Other Claims. The Parties acknowledge that there is a possibility that subsequent to the execution of this Second Amendment, a Party may discover facts or incur or suffer claims concerning the Disputed Performance Obligations that were unknown or unsuspected at the time this Second Amendment was executed, and which if known by such Party at that time may have materially affected such Party’s decision to agree to the

EXHIBIT 10.1

release of Claims in this Second Amendment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that by reason of this Second Amendment, and the releases contained in this Section 3, each Party (for itself and on behalf of the applicable Releasors) is assuming any risk of such unknown facts and such unknown and unsuspected claims. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in giving the release under this Section 3, which includes claims which may be unknown to a Party at present, each Party acknowledges that it has read and understands Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.” Each Party (for itself and on behalf of the applicable Releasors) hereby expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to the release of any unknown or unsuspected claims concerning the Disputed Performance Obligations a Party may have against the other Party and such Party’s Releasees.

C.Forbearance of Suit. Each Party, on behalf of itself and the Releasors, agrees that each Party and its applicable Releasors will forever refrain and forbear from commencing, instituting or prosecuting any lawsuit, action or other proceeding of any kind whatsoever, by way of action, defense, set-off, cross-complaint or counterclaim, against such other Party and its applicable Releasees based on, arising out of, or in connection with any Claim which is released and discharged pursuant to this Section 3.

D.No Assignment. Each Party expressly warrants that the Claims or other rights which are released pursuant to this Section 3 have not been assigned, conveyed or in any manner whatsoever transferred, and will not in the future be transferred, conveyed, or transferred to any other person or entity. If a Party breaches the foregoing warranty, such Party agrees to hold harmless and to indemnify the other Party and such other Party’s Releasees for any damages caused by such breach (including any attorneys’ fees and costs incurred as a result of the breach).

E.No Admission of Liability. The release under this Section 3 is not, and shall not in any way be construed to be, an admission by either Party, or any of their former or current parent companies, successors, assigns, affiliates, subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees and agents, that any one of them has acted wrongfully in any manner and the settlement set forth herein shall not be construed by any person or in any court, agency or tribunal whatsoever as a present or past admission of liability.

F.Confidentiality. The provisions of this Section 3 shall be held in strictest confidence by each Party and shall not be publicized or disclosed in any manner whatsoever; provided, however, that each Party may disclose the provisions of this Section 3 in confidence to its officers, directors, stockholders, members and employees having a need to know, attorneys, accountants, tax preparers, financial advisors, and investors (actual or potential), and each Party may also disclose the provisions of this Section 3 insofar as such disclosure may be necessary to enforce its terms or as otherwise required by law or regulation, including the rules or regulations of any tax authority, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other similar regulatory agencies in a country other than the United States or of any stock exchange or other securities trading institution.

G.No Present Knowledge of Additional Claims. Each Party represents and warrants to the other that, as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, to the best of such Party’s knowledge, it is not aware of any pending, suspected, or threatened claim against the other Party other than the released Claims.

SECTION 4: MISCELLANEOUS

A.Governing Law. This Second Amendment will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, USA, without reference to its choice of laws rules.

B.Unenforceable Terms. If any provision of this Second Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision will be deemed modified and will be interpreted to accomplish the

EXHIBIT 10.1

objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions of this Second Amendment will continue in full force and effect.

C.Entire Agreement. This Second Amendment and the terms hereof shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to all of the matters herein and its execution has not been induced by, nor do any of the parties hereto rely upon or regard as material, any representations or writings whatsoever not incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

D.No Other Amendments. Except as herein set forth, the Agreement has not been modified and, as amended by this Second Amendment, remains of full force and effect. To the extent there are any inconsistencies or ambiguities between the specific subject matter of this Second Amendment and the Agreement, the terms of this Second Amendment shall supersede the Agreement.

E.Headings. Descriptive headings used herein are used for convenience only and shall not be deemed to affect the meaning or construction of any provisions hereof.

F.Waiver of Terms. A waiver of any term or condition of this Second Amendment will not be deemed to be, and may not be construed as, a waiver of any other term or condition hereof.

G.Neutral Construction. This Second Amendment will be construed neutrally, and will not be applied more strictly against one party than another.

H.Counterparts. This Second Amendment may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures to this Second Amendment transmitted by facsimile, email, portable document format (.pdf) or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of this Second Amendment shall have the same effect as the physical delivery of the paper document bearing original signatures.
