RECITALS

WHEREAS the Supplier is the manufacturer of smooth and textured breast implant products (the “Breast Implants”) which Supplier desires to have distributed throughout North America, including the United States of America and Canada, and any territories of the United States of America and Canada (the “Territory”);

WHEREAS the Distributor desires to distribute the Breast Implants, along with any other products manufactured or sold by the Supplier (collectively, the “Products”) in the Territory on a non-exclusive basis;

WHEREAS Supplier and Distributor have previously entered into a Non-Exclusive Distribution Agreement dated as of October 27, 1999 (the “Original Agreement”) in which Supplier granted Distributor the non-exclusive right to distribute the Products in the Territory; and

WHEREAS Supplier and Distributor desire in this Agreement to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety to set forth in full the agreements and understandings of the parties with respect to the distribution of the Products in the Territory and certain related matters, including the filing, prosecution and ownership of the Pre-Market Approval (“PMA”) application currently in preparation for Supplier’s pre-filled saline Breast Implant products, which the parties anticipate will be submitted to the United States Department of Health and Human Resources, Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) * * *.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants set forth below, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Distribution Rights. Supplier hereby grants to Distributor a non-exclusive right and license to distribute the Products for sale throughout the Territory during the term of this Agreement. Supplier agrees that if the other non-exclusive distributor of the products, PIP/USA, Inc., breaches its agreement with Supplier or PIP/USA, Inc.’s agreement is cancelled or terminated for any reason, Supplier will not execute any other non-exclusive distribution agreement with any other party and this Agreement shall become exclusive with respect to distribution of the Products in the Territory. Distributor has only distribution rights under this Agreement. At no time while this Agreement is in effect will Distributor, directly or indirectly (through other companies, agents, subsidiaries or otherwise), manufacture equivalent breast implants that conform with the PMA contemplated in this Agreement. At no time while this Agreement is in effect will Supplier, directly or indirectly (through other customers, agents,

* * * Confidential Treatment Requested

subsidiaries or otherwise), with the exception of the non-exclusive distribution agreement already in place between Supplier and PIP/USA, Inc.:

(a) sell the Products in the Territory; or

(b) sell the Products to any person or entity with reasonable basis to believe that such person or entity, or someone acting on their behalf, will resell the Products into the Territory; or

(c) appoint or license any other person or entity as a distributor or representative of the Products without specifically prohibiting such person or entity, in writing, from selling or reselling the Products into the Territory; or

(d) sell any components and/or parts for the Products that may be used in manufacturing the Products for any person or entity in the Territory other than the Distributor.

2. Terms and Renewal. This Agreement and the rights granted Distributor hereunder shall be for an initial term of ten (10) years, beginning on the date first written above. Thereafter, the Distributor shall have the option of renewing this Agreement on the same terms and conditions for three (3) additional five (5) year terms, provided Distributor is not in default of any provisions of this Agreement at the date of renewal, which renewal shall be automatic unless the Distributor notifies Supplier of Distributor’s intent not to renew at least sixty (60) days prior to the renewal date.

3. Orders and Shipping.

(a) Order Placement and Allocation. Distributor shall place all orders for the Products with Supplier in writing on a weekly basis (the “Purchase Orders”). Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ship the Products on the Purchase Orders to Distributor within thirty (30) days of the date of the Purchase Order. Distributor shall provide to Supplier monthly an estimate of Products to be required for the following three months. In the event an order (prorated from a weekly basis to a monthly basis) is in excess of * * * above the budgeted order amount, then Supplier shall not be required to fulfill such excess above * * * within such 30-day period but shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ship the excess Products as soon as practicable.

(b) Title and Risk of Loss. All Products shall be shipped * * * to the Distributor at such location designated by Distributor or such other location as Distributor may notify Supplier of from time to time. * * *

(c) Incorrect or Erroneous Shipment. In the event the Products shipped to Distributor do not conform to the Purchase Order, Supplier shall correct any such errors at no cost to Distributor within ten (10) days written notice by Distributor of such error.

(d) Late Shipments. In the event that Supplier has not shipped Products under the Purchase Order within * * * days of the date of the Purchase Order (a “Late

* * * Confidential Treatment Requested

Shipment”), Supplier agrees to allow Distributor to take a discount equal to * * * per month (prorated for parts of months) that the Product in such Purchase Order remains unshipped.

(e) * * *

4. Pricing and Payment Terms.

(a) Price. Distributor shall pay * * * per saline Breast Implant unit. * * * The price and terms for any Products other than the saline Breast Implants shall be as mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Distributor shall pay * * * per saline Breast Implant unit. * * *

(b) Terms for Payment. Distributor agrees to pay invoices as shipped and billed by Supplier within * * * after delivery, less any discounts for Late Shipments as described in Section 3(d) above.

(d) * * *

(e) Product Warranty Claims/Promissory Note. As of February 29, 2004, Supplier had certain obligations to patients and doctors in respect of claims related to products sold by PIP/USA, Inc. and Distributor (“Existing Claims”). Distributor will undertake to administer and pay up to * * * of such Existing Claim amounts, with Distributor consulting with Supplier prior to paying any such Existing Claim amounts. If Distributor determines in its sole discretion that payment of any Existing Claim amount is necessary or advisable to (1) prosecute or maintain the PMA, (2) settle any presently existing litigation or any related or similar case, (3) avoid any adverse regulatory action, or (4) continue to market Products in any geographical market, then Distributor may without consent of Supplier pay any such Existing Claim amount. If with respect to any Existing Claim amount Distributor does not make the determination set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, then Distributor will consult with Supplier in the administration of such Existing Claim. Unless Supplier (i) engages counsel reasonably acceptable to Distributor to consult on such Existing Claim administration and (ii) separately indemnifies Distributor from and against any loss, claim or liability related to such Existing Claim in a manner reasonably acceptable to Distributor, Distributor may pay such Existing Claim amount. If Supplier engages counsel and provides the indemnity as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence in respect of an Existing Claim covered by such sentence, then Distributor will not pay the respective Existing Claim amount without Supplier’s consent, which consent will not unreasonably be withheld. In consideration of the foregoing undertaking by Distributor, Supplier will issue to Distributor a revolving promissory note (the “Note”) in the initial nominal principal amount of * * * (and an actual principal amount equal to the Existing Claim amounts paid by Distributor), with interest on the principal amount at a rate per annum equal to 6.75%. The principal amount payable under the Note shall be increased by any additional amounts paid by

Supplier shall bear all of the costs of such inspection unless it is determined that Distributor has underpaid Supplier by an amount equal to * * * or more of the amounts paid during the period covered by the inspection, in which case Distributor shall reimburse Supplier for all of such costs.

5. Marketing Assistance.
