WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Confirmation, if in respect of a Merger Event (including the Merger), the Counterparty to the Transaction following such Merger Event will not be the Issuer, then the provisions in Section 2 of the Confirmation in the second paragraph opposite the caption “Consequences of Merger Events” shall apply and, unless certain conditions are satisfied, Section 12.2(e)(ii) of the Equity Definitions shall apply;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Bond Hedge Guarantee by the Parent in favor of the Dealer in form

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Dealer, the Counterparty and the Parent for the benefit of each other agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

Section 1.01. Parent Shares. The parties agree that, pursuant to the Confirmation, from and after the

Effective Date (as defined below) (i) the Parent Shares will be deemed the “Shares”, the Parent will be deemed the Issuer and the text opposite the caption “Shares” under the heading “General Terms” in Section 2 of the Confirmation is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read “The Class A common stock of Globus Medical, Inc., USD 0.001 par value per share (Exchange symbol “GMED”)”, (ii) the text opposite the caption “Exchange” under the heading “General Terms” in Section 2 of the Confirmation is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read “The New York Stock Exchange” and (iii) references in the Confirmation to the Counterparty in its role as Issuer of the Shares shall be deemed to be references to the Parent.

Section 1.02. Repurchase and Conversion Rate Adjustment Notices. From and after the Effective Date, the requirement for the Counterparty to provide notices under Section 8(e) of the Confirmation if the Counterparty effects any repurchases of Shares (and certain other conditions are met as set forth therein) or if Counterparty engages in a transaction or event that could reasonably be expected to lead to an increase in the Conversion Rate, in each case, shall be deemed to reference the Parent as the party repurchasing Parent Shares or Parent engaging in a transaction or event that could reasonably be expected to lead to an increase in the Conversion Rate, as applicable. For the avoidance

of doubt, the Counterparty, and not the Parent, will remain responsible for any delivery or indemnification requirements relating to notices under Section 8(e) of the Confirmation.

Section 1.03. Credit Support. From and after the Effective Date, the Parent shall be a Credit Support Provider and the Guarantee shall be a Credit Support Document.

Section 1.04. New Additional Termination Event. From and after the Effective Date, the following new Section 8(b)(v) shall be added to the Confirmation:

“Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Confirmation, if at any time NuVasive, Inc. ceases to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Globus Medical, Inc., then such event shall constitute an Additional Termination Event applicable to the Transaction and, with respect to such Additional Termination Event, (A) Counterparty shall be deemed to be the sole Affected Party, (B) the Transaction shall be the sole Affected Transaction and (C) Dealer shall be the party entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 8(c) of this Confirmation shall not apply to the Additional Termination Event described in the immediately preceding sentence.”

Section 1.05. Material Non-Public Information. From and after the Effective Date, all references in the

Confirmation to the Counterparty’s possession or awareness of material non-public information with respect to the Counterparty and/or the Shares shall be deemed to be references to the Counterparty’s and the Parent’s collective possession or awareness of material non-public information with respect to the Parent and/or the Parent Shares, as applicable.

Section 1.06. Bankruptcy. From and after the Effective Date, Section 8(j) shall be replaced with the following provision (for the avoidance of doubt, references to “Issuer” and “Counterparty” in the provision below are references to the Parent and the Counterparty, respectively):

“Dealer acknowledges and agrees that this Confirmation is not intended to convey to it rights with respect to the Transaction that are senior to the claims of common stockholders of the Issuer in the event of the Issuer’s or the Counterparty’s bankruptcy. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the preceding sentence shall not apply at any time other than during the Issuer’s or the Counterparty’s bankruptcy and shall not apply to any claim arising as a result of a breach by the Issuer or the Counterparty of any of its respective obligations under this Confirmation or the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that neither the obligations of the Issuer nor the Counterparty under this Confirmation are secured by any collateral that would otherwise secure the obligations of the Issuer or the Counterparty herein under or pursuant to any other agreement.”

Section 1.07. Share Obligation Value Price. From and after the Effective Date, the text opposite the caption “Share Obligation Value Price” in Section 2 of the Confirmation shall be revised by deleting “Bloomberg page ‘NUVA.Q <Equity>’” and replacing it with “Bloomberg page ‘GMED.N <Equity>’”.

Section 1.08. Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent may make conforming changes to the terms of the transaction, consistent with the requirements of the “Calculation Agent” provision in Section 3 of the Confirmation, in respect of the consummation of the Merger and to effect the amendments to the Confirmation evidenced by this Letter Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, to account for the exchange ratio in the Merger being 0.75 Parent Shares per one share of common Stock of the Counterparty, par value USD 0.001).

Section 1.09. Transfer and Assignment. From and after the Effective Date, Section 8(f) of the Confirmation shall be revised by adding the following sentences as the last two sentences of such section:

“Notwithstanding any other provision in the Confirmation to the contrary requiring or allowing Dealer to purchase, sell, receive or deliver any Shares or other securities, or make or receive any payment in cash, to or from Counterparty or Issuer, Dealer may designate any of its affiliates to purchase, sell, receive or deliver such Shares or other securities, or make or receive such payment in cash, and otherwise to perform Dealer’s obligations in respect of the Transaction and any such designee may assume such obligations. Dealer shall be discharged of its obligations to Counterparty and Issuer to the extent of any such performance.”
