Re: Letter Agreement

Dear Xxxxx:

The purpose of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”) is to set forth the terms of your assignment and relocation to the United Kingdom beginning on June 9, 2016. In addition, this Agreement is intended to amend certain terms of that certain Separation Pay Agreement dated as of October 1, 2015 (the “SPA”) between you and Xxxxxx Medical Group, Inc. (“WMG” and together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Company”), which SPA is being executed by the parties thereto concurrently with the execution of this Agreement.

Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree that the SPA will remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. This Agreement, together with the SPA and the Relocation Letter described below, sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter addressed herein and therein, and all prior oral discussions and writings are merged into this Agreement and the SPA.

For purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the SPA.

1. Agreement to Relocate. You agree to relocate to the United Kingdom and work from the Company’s international headquarters office located in the United Kingdom beginning on June 9, 2016 (the “Relocation”).

2.Relocation Benefits. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and conditioned upon your Continuous Service (as defined below) with the Company, as well as your provision of supporting receipts and documentation, the Company will

provide you certain assignment and relocation benefits under the Company’s Assignment and Relocation Policy (collectively, the “Relocation Benefits”) as described in the letter to you attached as Attachment 1 to this Agreement (the “Relocation Letter”). Except as expressly provided in the Relocation Letter, all costs, expenses and liabilities arising from or relating to the Relocation will be your sole responsibility.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Continuous Service” means your uninterrupted active, full-time employment with the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, excluding permitted time off for Company holidays, other paid time off and approved leaves of absences, beginning with your relocation to the United Kingdom beginning on June 9, 2016 and continuing thereafter.

3. Retention Payment. Subject to your Continuous Service through and including June 9, 2018, your compliance in all material respects with all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the Company’s receipt of a Release (as defined below) executed by you that has not been revoked, the Company agrees to pay you U.S. $1,226,112 (the “Retention Payment”) in one lump sum cash payment on June 9, 2018.

4.Settlement and Waiver of SPA and Old SPA Payments and Benefits. You hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that the Company’s agreement to pay you the Retention Payment in Section 3 of this Agreement is in full and complete satisfaction and settlement of your assertion that the Relocation would enable you to terminate your employment with the Company for Good Reason pursuant to the SPA or your prior Separation Pay Agreement dated as of January 1, 2014 between you and Xxxxxx Medical Technology, Inc. (the “Old SPA”) and receive severance payments and benefits thereunder. You hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that by executing this Agreement, you hereby waive any and all right to assert that the Relocation would enable you to terminate your employment with the Company for Good Reason pursuant to the SPA or Old SPA and receive severance payments and benefits thereunder. In addition, you hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that by executing this Agreement, you hereby waive any and all rights to terminate your employment with the Company for Good Reason pursuant to the SPA or Old SPA with respect to any inactions or actions taken by the Company up to and including the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an admission by the Company that, but for this Agreement, you would have been eligible to receive a Post-Change in Control Severance Payment or any other payment or benefit under the Old SPA or SPA.

5.Effect of Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding any terms in the SPA to the contrary,

a. In the event of an Involuntary Termination of your employment with the Company prior to October 1, 2016, the Company will pay you the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment pursuant to Section 6.1 of the SPA and provide you the other additional benefits pursuant to Section 6.2 of the SPA, subject to the terms and conditions of the SPA, including without limitation the

Company’s receipt of a Release executed by you that has not been revoked, and will not pay you the Retention Payment under this Agreement.

b. In the event of an Involuntary Termination of your employment with the Company on or after October 1, 2016 and prior to June 9, 2018 and not during a CIC Protection Period, the Company will pay you the Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment pursuant to Section 5.1 of the SPA and provide you the other additional benefits pursuant to Section 5.2 of the SPA, subject to the terms and conditions of the SPA, including without limitation the Company’s receipt of a Release executed by you that has not been revoked, and will not pay you the Retention Payment under this Agreement; provided, however, that if the amount of the Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment that you received under the SPA is less than the amount of the Retention Payment, then the Company will pay you an additional amount equal to the difference between the Retention Payment and the Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment on June 9, 2018 (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, but in any event within 90 days thereafter), such additional amount as determined by the Company and such additional amount subject to your Continuous Service through and including the Date of Termination, your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Company’s receipt of a Release (as defined below) executed by you that has not been revoked.

c. In the event of an Involuntary Termination of your employment with the Company on or after October 1, 2016 and prior to June 9, 2018 and during a CIC Protection Period, the Company will pay you the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment pursuant to Section 6.1 of the SPA and provide you the other additional benefits pursuant to Section 6.2 of the SPA, subject to the terms and conditions of the SPA, including without limitation the Company’s receipt of a Release executed by you that has not been revoked, and will not pay you the Retention Payment under this Agreement; provided, however, that if the amount of the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment that you received under the SPA is less than the amount of the Retention Payment, then the Company will pay you an additional amount equal to the difference between the Retention Payment and the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment on June 9, 2018 (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, but in any event within 90 days thereafter), such additional amount as determined by the Company and such additional amount subject to your Continuous Service through and including the Date of Termination, your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Company’s receipt of a Release (as defined below) executed by you that has not been revoked. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amount of the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment is more than the Retention Payment, then the amount of the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment shall be reduced to the amount of the Retention Payment.

d. In the event of an Involuntary Termination of your employment with the Company on or after June 9, 2018, no Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment or Post-Change in Control Severance Payment will be paid to you at any time or for any reason pursuant to the SPA or Old SPA.

e. For clarity and the avoidance of any doubt, the Company will have no obligation to pay you the Retention Payment referred to in Section 3 of this Agreement, the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment under the SPA and referred to in Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of this Agreement or the Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment under the SPA and referred to in this Section 5(b) of this Agreement if: (1) you resign as an officer or employee of the Company other than for Good Reason; (2) the Company terminates your employment with the Company for Cause or Disability; or (3) your employment is terminated as a result of your death. For clarity and the avoidance of any doubt, if (1) you resign as an officer or employee of the Company other than for Good Reason; (2) the Company terminates your employment with the Company for Cause or Disability; or (3) your employment is terminated as a result of your death, the terms of the SPA will govern your separation arrangement with the Company.

f. For clarity and the avoidance of any doubt, in no event will the Relocation or this Agreement be deemed to be Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement, the SPA and the Old SPA.

g. For clarity and the avoidance of any doubt, in no event will any of the following be deemed to be Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement, the SPA and the Old SPA: (1) any change in your reporting relationship resulting from the departure of Xxxx Xxxxx from the Company; (2) any change in your reporting relationship resulting from the potential hiring of a new Chief Operating Officer or similar officer position to whom you would be required to report; (3) any change in the location of the Company’s office within the United Kingdom to which you are required to report; (4) any change (including any increase or decrease) in the number of employees or Company personnel under your supervision and direction or otherwise reporting directly or indirectly to you as a result of any future acquisition or disposition by the Company or otherwise; (5) any potential change in the international business and/or Company products of which you oversee and manage as a result of any future acquisition or disposition by the Company or otherwise; and (5) any reduction in your status within the Company, position, title, role, duties and/or responsibilities accompanying a potential future move by you back to Australia as may be agreed upon between you and the Company at some point in the future.

6.No Further Compensation for Agreement to Relocate. You hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that neither your annual base salary, short-term incentive target percentage or opportunity, nor long-term incentive opportunity will be increased solely as a result of the Relocation.

7.Release of Claims. You hereby agree that you will execute a general release of all claims, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B to the SPA but revised to also cover all claims you may have under applicable non-U.S. laws, and a release of all United States Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, claims, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C to the SPA, within thirty (30) days after June 9, 2018 to be eligible to receive the Retention Payment or any other payment under this Agreement. These two release documents are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Release.” You recognize and agree that, notwithstanding any other Section in this Agreement or the SPA to the contrary, the Release must be executed and not revoked within the time provided therein prior to the Company’s obligation to pay the Retention Payment or any other payment to you under this Agreement.

8.Confidentiality. You hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Agreement are confidential and that you may not disclose the terms of this Agreement to any person except your attorney, accountant, tax advisor, or spouse, each of whom you will advise of their obligation to abide by this confidentiality requirement; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement precludes you from disclosing the terms of this Agreement to a governmental agency pursuant to a lawful and formal request by such agency or pursuant to court order, provided that the party of whom the request is made provides the Company with notice of the request or order prior to divulging the information. Nothing in this Agreement precludes the Company from disclosing the terms of this Agreement.

9.Non-Disparagement. You hereby agree that you will make no defamatory, disparaging, critical, derogatory or negative oral or written comments regarding the Company, or its products or services.

10.Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax (including non-U.S., U.S. federal, state and/or local taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you as a result of this Agreement, including the Relocation Letter, the SPA, or otherwise, is and remains your responsibility and that the Company: (a) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Agreement, including the Relocation Letter, or the SPA; and (b) does not commit to structure the terms of this Agreement, including the Relocation Letter, or the SPA or any aspect of the Retention Payment or other payments or benefits you may receive hereunder, under the Relocation Letter, under the SPA or otherwise to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items. If you are or become subject to taxation in more than one country between the date of this Agreement and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one country. Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 10 shall affect the Tax Equalisation Policy in the Relocation Letter, which shall apply pursuant to its terms during the term of your assignment to the United Kingdom.

Re: Assignment Offer

Assignment and Relocation Benefit Policy

Dear Xxxxx:

The purpose of this letter is to describe the Assignment and Relocation Benefit Policy of Xxxxxx Medical Technology, Inc. (together with its affiliates and subsidiaries, the “Company”) as it relates to your temporary assignment and relocation to the United Kingdom (“Host Country”) from Dubai, United Arab Emirates (“Home Country”), beginning on June 9, 2016 and run for a maximum period of up to two (2) years.

Please note that the length of a Company assignment is based upon present requirements and is therefore subject to change at the absolute discretion of the Company.

Please also note that during your assignment, in response to competitive practice or for business reasons, the Company may need to revise the policy; and therefore, the Company reserves the right to delete, amend or introduce new policies or policy elements if applicable. Such changes will be communicated to you in advance of any change.

The assignment and relocation benefits described herein are based on your family size of four (employee, spouse and two children).

ASSIGNMENT BENEFITS

Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA)

An adjustment has been made to your reward package for cost of living. From the start of your assignment the adjustment is US$21,258 per annum. This will be reviewed and updated annually for exchange rate fluctuations and family size changes. The Company will meet the cost of any tax on this provision.

Medical Coverage

The Company will reimburse you on an annual basis for the cost of BUPA health insurance: SG Lifeline Gold level for yourself and your three family members (spouse and children). You will be responsible for any tax on this benefit.

Housing

Your housing allowance will be £169,400 per annum which includes Stamp Duty Land Tax. If your rental amount exceeds this allowance, you will be liable for the additional costs. The housing allowance will be paid to you on a monthly basis through payroll. The Company will cover Council Tax which you can claim through expenses. The Company will meet the cost of any tax on the provision of the housing allowance and Council Tax. The cost of utilities such as electricity, gas, gardening services, home cleaning etc. will be your own personal responsibility.

Education

The Company will pay for actual tuition fees and related transportation costs only for your dependent children at EIFA for each year of assignment. The Company will not cover the following associated school costs: school uniforms, books, laptops or any other school equipment, extra-curricular activities (including music or sport lessons and additional tutoring), school trips or additional school meals or day care during school holidays. You can claim reimbursement for tuition and transportation costs through the Company’s Travel and Expense Policy. The Company will cover any tax costs on this benefit.

Car Lease

You will be entitled to lease a car for the duration of the assignment and can claim reimbursement for the car lease payments and the following related costs: insurance, petrol, city toll and parking, consistent with the Company’s Travel and Expense Policy. You will be responsible for any tax on this benefit.

With respect to your current Company-owned car in the UAE, you agree to work with the Company to arrange for its sale or some other arrangement agreed upon by you and the Company, recognizing that the car is owned by the Company and in its name and that any proceeds from a sale would belong to the Company.     

Tax Equalisation Policy

The principle of the Company’s tax equalisation policy is that you will be no better and no worse off with respect to employment income than had you not gone on assignment. In this respect, the Company deducts an amount of hypothetical tax and social security from your “Notional Home Salary” where applicable. This represents the amount you would have paid on your Home Country employment income in a full tax year. The Company then undertakes to meet all of your actual tax and social security liabilities in respect of employment income from the Company in the Host Country.

You will be subject to tax equalisation on your Company-source income only and any retention payments or severance payments that you receive during your assignment to the Host Country under that certain letter agreement between you and the Company dated as of the date hereof or that certain separation pay agreement dated as of October 1, 2015 between you and the Company. Tax equalisation will not apply to any tax and

social security arising on personal income. Please note that you should not do anything to generate a UK tax liability on any personal income as should this occur, the Company will not cover any additional tax liabilities.

Social Security

Where possible, the Company will apply to retain you in your Home Country scheme in line with legislation. The UK does not have a reciprocal social security arrangement with the UAE and as such you and the Company will benefit from a 52 week exemption from UK national insurance contributions. UK national insurance contributions will be payable from week 53 after your arrival and the Company will pay and tax equalise these contributions.

Tax Assistance

The Company will pay the reasonable and customary costs of the Company’s appointed tax advisors for the preparation and filing of the following returns:

• Host Country returns for each year of your assignment and any subsequent year during which you receive tax equalised compensation or allowances subject to Host Country taxation;

• Home Country returns for any year during this assignment in which you receive Company compensation subject to Home Country taxation.

The Company will pay the tax on any benefit arising from these services. RSM will be your tax advisor for your assignment to the United Kingdom. You will be required to meet the tax advisor in the UK for an arrival briefing shortly after your arrival. In addition, by agreeing to the terms and conditions in this letter, you are also agreeing for RSM to share with your employer information regarding your income and taxes to enable the correct amount of UK tax to be paid under tax equalisation.

Please note that RSM is not authorised to advise on personal savings or personal investment income.

RELOCATION BENEFITS

Shipment of Personal Effects & Temporary Storage

The Company will fund and assist all efforts to have your goods and personal effects moved from your current Dubai, UAE address to your new residence in London (including customary moving agent, customs & insurance costs), up to a maximum of a 40 ft container (60 cbm). You can claim reimbursement for these costs through the Company’s Travel and Expense Policy. The Company will also cover a household goods shipment back to Australia which has been surveyed as 8 cubic meters.

It is your responsibility to ensure that legal, insurance, customs and other administration is complied with at ports of entry or exit. You should ensure that you have the necessary

paperwork to facilitate clearance of your goods through customs. The Company will meet any tax liability arising from the shipment of personal effects in line with its policy.

Travel

You and your three accompanying family members will be entitled to direct flights to the Host Country, in line with the Company’s Business Travel Policy. You may claim travel expenses to and from the airports and claim these via the usual expense claims process.

Temporary Accommodation

In the event there is a need for temporary accommodation between arrival in the UK and finalising permanent accommodation, the Company will fund reasonable expenses for such temporary accommodation, up to 30 days. You can claim reimbursement for these costs through the Company’s Travel and Expense Policy.

Home Search /School Search Assistance

K2 Corporate Mobility, the Company’s preferred relocation provider in the United Kingdom, will provide you with assistance in finding a property for your family and school for your children. K2 Corporate Mobility will manage the lease negotiation and contractual arrangements on your behalf.

Home Leave Trips

You will be entitled to two, business class return flights to Brisbane, Australia per annum, per family member. You can claim reimbursement for these costs through the Company’s Travel and Expense Policy.

Miscellaneous Relocation Expenses

You will be entitled to receive a relocation allowance of USD 10,000 to offset out of pocket expenses, fees, taxes related to your relocation from Dubai, UAE to London, UK.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Taxes, NIC & Applicable Charges on Allowances

Assistance provided will either be paid directly by you to the provider or claimed through the Company’s internal reimbursement system by you.

Allowances listed above are net of tax where stated and other applicable charges per UK tax legislation. In addition, the Company will cover any tax costs relating to the relocation benefits provided to you hereunder. Under the terms of tax equalisation, the Company will pick up any UK taxes payable on these items. In as much as any UK tax liability on Company related income will be the responsibility of the Company, any UK tax refund arising from the reconciliation performed by RSM on the filing of a UK

tax return will need to be mandated to the Company. By signing this agreement, you consent to this.

Repatriation After Completion of Assignment or Upon Termination of Employment by the Company Without Cause

In the event your employment with the Company ceases, the Company will pay to repatriate you and your three family members within three months ceasing employment, equivalent to USD20,000. In the event you remain in the UK for greater than three months, you will forfeit the right of repatriation.

Repatriation Upon Resignation or Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause

Should you resign during the assignment period, you will be personally responsible for the shipment of goods and for the continued liability on your housing related payments. Any costs of relocation or repatriation will be to your own account and not the responsibility of the Company. The Company may ask you to reimburse some of the costs associated with your assignment and relocation if you resign during the first 12 months of the assignment.

1.8“Good Reason” means:

1.8.1The occurrence of any of the following without the prior written consent of the Executive, unless such act or failure to act is corrected by the Company prior to the Date of Termination specified in the Notice of Termination (as discussed in Section 3.1 hereof):

1.8.1.3a material reduction (i.e., more than ten percent (10%)) by the Company in the Executive’s aggregate annualized compensation target (including bonus opportunity as a percentage of base salary) and benefits opportunities, except for an across the board reduction or modification to any benefit plan affecting all executives of the Company;

1.8.1.4the failure by the Company to pay to the Executive any portion of the Executive’s current compensation and benefits, under any plan, program or policy of, or other contract or agreement with, the Company or any of its Affiliates, within thirty (30) days of the date such compensation and/or benefits are due;

1.8.2Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, placing the Executive on a paid leave for up to ninety (90) days pending a determination by the Company of whether there is a basis to terminate the Executive for Cause shall not constitute a Good Reason.

1.8.3Following a Change in Control and during the CIC Protection Period (as defined in Section 6), the Executive’s determination that an act or failure to act constitutes Good Reason shall be presumed to be valid. The Executive’s right to terminate the Executive’s employment for Good Reason shall not be affected by the Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness. The Executive’s continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting Good Reason hereunder. In all events, if the Executive fails to deliver Notice of Termination with respect to a termination of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason within ninety (90) days after the Executive becomes aware of the event giving rise to such right to terminate, the Executive shall be deemed to waive the Executive’s right to terminate for Good Reason with respect to such event.

In addition, if the Executive is required to forfeit or to make any repayment of any compensation or benefit(s) to the Company under the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, any other applicable law, stock exchange requirement or policy of the Company, such forfeiture or repayment shall not constitute Good Reason.

Any such payment in lieu of notice would be in addition to any payments provided pursuant to Section 5 or 6, as applicable.

3.2.2If due to death, the Date of Termination is the date of death.

3.2.6Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any compensation that qualifies as non-qualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A (taking into account amounts that are exempt from the requirements of Code Section 409A by reason of the “separation pay” or “short-term deferral” exclusions), the Date of Termination shall be the date the Executive experiences a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

4.Termination from the Board and any Offices Held. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive agrees that the Executive’s membership on the Board, if any, the board of directors of any of the Company’s Affiliates, any committees of the Board, any committees of the board of directors of any of the Company’s Affiliates, and any and all offices held, if applicable, shall be automatically terminated. The Executive hereby agrees to cooperate with the Company and execute any documents reasonably required by the Company or competent authorities to effect this provision.

5.Severance Benefits upon Involuntary Termination Prior to Change in Control or After the CIC Protection Period Expires. In the event of the Involuntary Termination of the Executive’s employment prior to a Change in Control or after the expiration of the CIC Protection Period (as defined in Section 6), subject to Section 19.9, the Company shall, following receipt of the Release required in Section 13 that has not been revoked, pay to the Executive the following “Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment” in the following amounts and manner:

5.1The total severance payment will be equal to the sum of: (i) the Executive’s then current annual base salary, plus (ii) an amount equal to the Executive’s then current annual target bonus; provided that if the Executive’s annual base salary or target bonus has been reduced during the sixty (60) day period prior to the Date of Termination, then for purposes of severance payment calculation the higher figure will be used; and provided, further that the use of the term “annual target bonus” as used in this Section 5.1 is intended merely as a method to computing the amount of the severance payment herein and is not intended to pay the Executive an annual target bonus for the fiscal year that includes the Date of Termination, which will be paid to the Executive, if earned on a pro rata basis, pursuant to Section 5.3.2.

5.2The payment will be made as follows: (i) half in a lump sum payable at or within a reasonable period of time after the Date of Termination and subject to receipt of an executed Release that has not been revoked, and (ii) the remaining half in six (6) equal consecutive monthly installments starting six (6) months after the Date of Termination with a final installment of all remaining amounts

to be paid on or before March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurred. The final installment will be equal to the total payment reduced by all the amounts previously paid (i.e., the lump sum payment and the sum of all the installment payments previously paid). Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (ii) to the contrary, if the six-month period would cause the installments to begin to be paid after the March 15 date described in the first sentence of this Section 5.2, then no installments will be paid, and the second payment will be a lump sum equal to half the total payment and that payment will be paid on or before March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurred. The installment payments (or the second lump sum payment, if applicable) are specifically designated as consideration for execution of the Release required in Section 13 and compliance with Sections 12, 13 and 14 and the terms of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement. All payments will have applicable taxes withheld and any installment payments will be paid at such times during the month as the Company may reasonably determine.

5.3In addition to the Pre-Change in Control Severance Payment, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the following additional benefits:

5.3.1Accrued Obligations.

5.3.3Equity-Based Compensation. All equity-based Incentive Compensation Awards (including, without limitation, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance share awards or other related awards) held by the Executive shall be governed by the terms of the applicable Incentive Compensation Plan and Incentive Compensation Award agreement, and this Agreement shall have no effect upon them.

5.3.4Welfare Benefits. The Executive shall be eligible for health and dental coverage as provided for under the United States Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), using the normal COBRA administration process of the Company. The Company will pay or reimburse the Executive for all costs of these benefits for a period equal to twelve (12) months, after which the Executive will be responsible for paying the full COBRA costs of benefits. If the Executive accepts employment with another employer and is no longer eligible for COBRA coverage, these welfare benefits will cease to be provided.

5.3.5Outplacement Benefits. The Executive may, if the Executive so elects, receive outplacement assistance and services at the Company’s expense for a period of one (1) year following the Date of Termination.

5.3.8General Insurance Benefit. No later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurred, provided the Executive has made a request for the payment described in this Section 5.3.8 on such form as the Company may require, the Executive shall receive a payment for use in the payment of the cost of continuation of insurance coverage, such payment to be equal to the annual supplemental executive insurance premium benefit provided to the Executive prior to the Executive’s Date of Termination; provided, however, that such benefit does not include reimbursement for insurance coverage that pays for medical, prescription drug, dental, vision or other medical care expenses. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to make this payment at the time requested.

6.Severance Benefits upon Involuntary Termination in Connection with and after a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5 above, in the event of the Involuntary Termination of the Executive within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (the “CIC Protection Period”), subject to Section 19.9, the Company shall, following receipt of the Release required in Section 13 that has not been revoked, pay to the Executive the following “Post-Change in Control Severance Payment” in the following amounts and manner:

6.1The total severance payment will be equal to two times (2x) the sum of (i) the Executive’s then current annual base salary plus (ii) the Executive’s then current annual target bonus; provided that if the Executive’s annual base salary or target bonus has been reduced during the sixty (60) day period prior to the Date of Termination, then, for purposes of this severance payment calculation, the higher figure will be used.

6.1.1The payment will be made as follows: (i) half in a lump sum payable at or within a reasonable period of time after the Date of Termination and subject to receipt of an executed Release that has not been revoked, (ii) the remaining half in six (6) equal consecutive monthly installments starting six (6) months after the Date of Termination with a final installment of all remaining amounts to be paid on March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurred.

Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (ii) to the contrary, if the six-month period would cause the installments to begin to be paid after the March 15 date described in the first sentence of this Section 6.1.1, then no installments will be paid, and the second payment will be a lump sum equal to half the total payment and that payment will be paid on or before March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurred. The installment payments (or the second lump sum payment, if applicable) are specifically designated as consideration for execution of the Release required in Section 13 and compliance with Sections 12, 13 and 14 and the terms of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement. All payments will have applicable taxes withheld and any installment payments will be paid at such times during the month as the Company may reasonably determine.

6.2.4Welfare Benefits. The Executive shall be eligible for health and dental continuation coverage as provided for under COBRA, using the normal COBRA administration process of the Company. The Company will pay or reimburse the Executive for all costs of these benefits for eighteen (18) months after which the Executive will be responsible for paying the full COBRA costs of benefits. If the Executive accepts employment with another employer and is no longer eligible for COBRA coverage, these welfare benefits will cease to be provided.

6.2.5Outplacement Benefits. The Executive may, if the Executive so elects, receive outplacement assistance and services at the Company’s expense for a period of two (2) years following the Date of Termination.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Executive accepts employment with another employer, these outplacement benefits shall cease on the date of such acceptance.

6.2.6Financial Planning Services. The Executive may, if the Executive so elects, receive financial planning services at the Company’s expense for a period of two (2) years following the Date of Termination, at a level consistent with the benefits provided under the Company’s financial planning program for the Executive as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination; provided, however, that the total amount of such services may not exceed the amount in effect under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B) for the calendar year that includes the Date of Termination.

6.3Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Change in Control occurs and the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of Involuntary Termination (including as a result of an event giving rise to Good Reason) prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control, and if such termination of employment (or the event giving rise to Good Reason) (i) was at the request of a third party who has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect the Change in Control or (ii) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of the Change in Control, then the Executive shall, in lieu of the payments described in Section 5 hereof, be entitled to the Post-Change in Control Severance Payment and the additional benefits described in this Section 6 as if such Involuntary Termination had occurred within twelve (12) months following the Change in Control.

7.Severance Benefits upon Termination by the Company for Cause or by the Executive Other than for Good Reason.

Amounts which are vested benefits or which

the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any benefit, plan, policy, practice or program of, or any contract or agreement entered into with, the Company or any Affiliate shall be payable in accordance with such benefit, plan, policy, practice or program or contract or agreement except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

In the event that the Executive is covered under the United States Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended (“ADEA”), as of the date of the termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive also will be required to execute the ADEA Release of all ADEA claims, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, within thirty (30) days after the applicable Date of Termination to be eligible to receive any post-employment payments of any kind under this Agreement other than the Accrued Obligations.

15.Specific Remedies for Executive Breach of Certain Covenants. Without limiting the rights and remedies available to the Company, in the event of any breach by the Executive of the covenants set forth in Sections 12, 13 or 14 above or the terms of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement or the Release, the following actions may be taken by the Company:

15.1If the Company believes a breach has occurred, it will deliver to the Executive a summary of the breach and a demand for explanation or agreement that such breach has occurred; the Executive shall have ten (10) business days to respond in writing to this demand, whereupon the Company will make a decision as to whether the breach has, in fact, occurred; if it is determined such a breach has occurred, then

15.1.1the Company’s obligation to make any payment or provide any benefits to the Executive under Sections 5, 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement shall cease immediately and permanently, which shall not have any impact whatsoever on the Executive’s continuing obligations under the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement; and

15.1.2the Executive shall repay to the Company, within ten (10) days after the Executive receives written demand therefore, an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the payments and benefits previously received by the Executive under this Agreement, plus interest on such amount at an annual rate equal to the lesser of ten percent (10%) or the maximum non-usurious rate under applicable law, from the dates on which such payments and benefits were received to the date of repayment to the Company.

15.2It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the applicable laws in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any portion of Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement is adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement shall be deemed curtailed, whether as to time or location, to the minimum extent required for its validity under applicable law and shall be binding and enforceable with respect to the Executive as so curtailed, such curtailment to apply only with respect to the operation of Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement in the jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made. If a court in any jurisdiction, in adjudicating the validity of Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement, imposes any additional terms or restrictions with respect to Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement, Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement shall be deemed amended to incorporate such additional terms or restrictions.

15.3The Executive agrees and acknowledges that the Executive has received good and adequate consideration for the covenants set forth in Section 12 and the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement in the form of employment, compensation, and benefits separate and independent of any payments or potential payments in this Agreement.

16.Potential Impact of Accounting Restatements on Certain Bonuses and Profits.

16.1If the Parent Corporation or any of its Affiliates is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its consolidated balance sheet or statement of operations affecting any reporting period that transpires during the term of employment (the “Term”) due to the material noncompliance of the Parent Corporation or any of its Affiliates with any financial requirements under the U.S. Federal securities laws and if such material non-compliance is a direct result of the Executive’s knowing, intentional, fraudulent or illegal conduct, then the Board can require the Executive to reimburse the Company or the Parent Corporation for (i) any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation received by the Executive from the Company or the Parent Corporation during the Term and (ii) any profits realized from the sale of securities of the Parent Corporation by the Executive during the Term.

16.2In making the determination whether to seek recovery from the Executive and in making the determination of what portion of the Executive’s compensation and/or profits should be returned to the Company or the Parent Corporation under Section 16.1, the Board will seek to achieve a result that is fair to the Executive and the Company and the Parent Corporation, and in that connection, the Board will consider whether any bonus, incentive payment, equity award or other compensation has been awarded or received by the Executive during the Term, whether the Executive realized any profits from the sale of securities of the Parent Corporation during the Term, whether and the extent to which such compensation and/or profits were based on financial results and operating metrics that were satisfied as a result of the Executive’s knowing, intentional, fraudulent or illegal conduct, and what the Executive’s compensation and/or profits would have been in the absence of the reporting issue. The Board has the sole discretion in determining whether the Executive’s conduct has or has not met the standard for such forfeiture and the amount of the forfeiture.

16.3Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required or permitted by applicable laws, rules or regulations, securities exchange listing requirements applicable to the Parent Corporation and any of its Affiliates and the Executive or any Company policy applicable to the Executive, the Company shall have the right to recover any amounts paid to the Executive under this Agreement. Any such recoupment of a payment to the Executive under this Agreement may be in addition to any other remedies that may be available to the Company under applicable law or Company policy applicable to the Executive.

16.4If the Board determines that recovery is appropriate or required as set forth in Section 16.1 or 16.3, such amounts shall be withheld from any future amounts owed to the Executive as compensation. The Company may also commence legal action to collect such recovery as the Board determines is owed to the Company.

16.5The parties agree that this Section 16 shall be amended as necessary to comply with any new applicable laws, rules or regulations issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the national stock exchange on which the ordinary shares of the Parent Corporation

are listed or any others applicable to the Company which are or may become mandatorily applicable to this Agreement.

17.Successors.

17.1Assignment by the Executive. This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives.

17.2Successors and Assigns of the Company. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors, and assigns.

Payment in Section 6.1 of this Agreement and provide the other additional benefits in Section 6.2 of this Agreement.

19.2Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee without regard to conflicts-of-laws principles that would require the application of any other law. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect.

19.3Mandatory Jurisdiction and Venue. Any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement, and/or claims or disputes regarding the Executive’s employment with and/or separation from employment with the Company, shall be brought in the state or federal courts located in Shelby County, Tennessee and the parties hereto shall submit to and not contest such mandatory jurisdiction and venue in such courts.

19.6Waiver of Breach. A waiver by the Company or the Executive of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the other party.

19.7Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

19.8Notices.

19.9Taxes.

19.9.1General. The Company and its Affiliates may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such foreign, U.S. federal, state or local taxes as the Company or its Affiliates reasonably determine is required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

19.9.2Code Section 409A.

19.9.2.1Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to provide payments that are exempt from Code Section 409A or in compliance therewith, as applicable. In furtherance thereof, if payment or provision of any amount or benefit hereunder at the time specified in this Agreement would subject such amount or benefit to any additional tax under Code Section 409A (taking into account the amounts that are treated as exempt from the requirements of Code Section 409A by reason of the “separation pay” or “short-term deferral” exclusions), the payment or provision of such amount or benefit shall be postponed to the earliest commencement date on which the payment or the provision of such amount or benefit could be made without incurring such additional tax (including paying any severance that is delayed in a lump sum upon the earliest possible payment date which is consistent with Code Section 409A). In addition, to the extent that any regulations or guidance issued under Code Section 409A (after application of the previous provision of this paragraph) would result in the Executive being subject to the payment of interest or any additional tax under Code Section 409A, the Company and the Executive agree, to the extent reasonably possible, to amend this Agreement in order to avoid the imposition of any such interest or additional tax under Code Section 409A, which amendment shall have the least possible economic effect on the Executive as reasonably determined in good faith by the Company and the Executive; provided however, that the Company and the Executive shall not be required to substitute a cash payment for any non-cash benefit herein.

19.9.2.2A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits that are considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A (taking into account the amounts that are treated as exempt from the requirements of Code Section 409A by reason of the “separation pay” or “short-term deferral” exclusions) upon or following a termination of employment, unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and the payment thereof prior to a “separation from service” would violate Code Section 409A or any exclusion from the requirements of Code Section 409A, as applicable. For purposes of any such provision of this Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to the “Date of Termination” shall mean the date the “separation from service” occurs and references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”

19.9.2.3For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company, as the case may be.

19.9.2.4With respect to any payment constituting nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A: (A) all expenses or other reimbursements provided herein shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time, but in any event shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by the Executive; (B) no such reimbursement or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible

for reimbursement in any other taxable year; and (C) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchanged for another benefit.

19.9.2.5If the Executive is deemed on the Date of Termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided on the first business day following the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (B) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 19 (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum on the first business day following the Delay Period, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

19.9.3Code Section 280G. The provisions set forth in Exhibit D hereto are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference, and the Executive shall be entitled to the benefit of those provisions. This Section 19.9.3 and the provisions set forth in Exhibit D hereto shall be expressly assumed by any successor to the Company.

19.10Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement (Exhibit A), the other exhibits hereto and that certain letter agreement dated as of May 23, 2016 between the Company and the Executive regarding his relocation to the United Kingdom, contain the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter referred to herein and supersedes any and all prior negotiations, understandings, arrangements, letters of intent, and agreements, whether written or oral, between the Executive and the Company and its Affiliates, or any of its or their directors, officers, employees or representatives with respect thereto. In the event of any conflict between any provisions of this Agreement (including its Exhibits) and the provisions of any plan, program or policy of the Company or any of its Affiliates, the Agreement and its Exhibits shall govern.

19.11Survivability. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, upon the termination of this Agreement or the expiration of the Term, the respective rights and obligations of the parties that accrued prior to such termination or expiration shall survive such termination or expiration to the extent necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto. The Agreement shall continue in effect until there are no further rights or obligations of the parties hereto that accrued prior to such termination or expiration outstanding hereunder and shall not be terminated by any party without the express written consent of all parties.

19.12No Right of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as giving the Executive any right to be retained in the employ of the Company or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the Executive’s employment at any time, with or without Cause.

19.13Unfunded Obligation. The obligations under this Agreement shall be unfunded. Benefits payable under this Agreement shall be paid from the general assets of the Company and its Affiliates. The Company shall have no obligation to establish any fund or to set aside any assets to

provide benefits under this Agreement. With respect to all payment and performance obligations of the Company under this Agreement, the term the “Company” shall include all of its Affiliates.

19.14Attorneys’ Fees. In any legal action by the Company to enforce Sections 12, 13 and 14 of this Agreement and the terms of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement, and in any other legal action by any party prior to a Change in Control to enforce any term of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all reasonable attorney’s fees and litigation costs.  Following a Change in Control, should a party file any action to enforce any term of this Agreement other than an action by the Company to enforce Sections 12, 13 and 14 of this Agreement and the terms of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Intellectual Property Rights Agreement, the Company shall pay all reasonable attorney’s fees and litigation costs incurred by the Executive. Following a Change in Control, the payment of fees and litigation costs will be made on a quarterly basis following the commencement of the action upon presentation of fee statements from legal counsel of the Executive without regard to which party may ultimately be the prevailing party.

19.15Execution. This Agreement and its Exhibits may be executed in several counterparts each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement and its Exhibits may be executed by signatures delivered by facsimile or in pdf or other electronic format, which shall be deemed to be an original.

20.Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence from the Effective Date and shall continue until the close of business of the day preceding the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that commencing on the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Effective Date (and each anniversary of the Effective Date thereafter), the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for one (1) additional year, unless at least ninety (90) days prior to such date, the Company or the Executive shall give written notice to the other party that the Company or the Executive, as the case may be, does not wish to so extend this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company gives such written notice to the Executive less than one (1) year after a Change in Control, the term of this Agreement shall be automatically extended until the later of (a) the date that is one (1) year after the anniversary of the Effective Date that follows such written notice or (b) the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Change in Control.

EXHIBIT A

CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS CONFIDENTIALITY, NON‑COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION, AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as October 1, 2015 by and between Xxxxxx Medical Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with all its subsidiaries and affiliates owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, now or in the future, the “Company”), and [Employee Name] (“Employee”).

I N T R O D U C T I O N:

A. The Company designs, manufactures and markets orthopaedic medical devices and biologics. The Company conducts business in a highly competitive market and has invested significant time and resources in developing its products, business, customer, and employee relationships.

B. The Company must protect its confidential and proprietary information, and its relationships with customers, prospective customers, and other entities doing business with the Company, which constitute valuable assets of the Company and which the Company would not otherwise make accessible to Employee.

C. The Company must protect critical relationships with the Company’s customers and prospective customers that the Company has developed on the Company’s behalf and at the Company’s expense.

D. As a condition of Employee’s employment and access to confidential and proprietary Company information, and of allowing Employee to develop knowledge regarding relationships with the Company’s customers and prospective customers, and in consideration of employment and the Company’s compensation of the Employee, including without limitation wages, salary, potential bonuses, and other benefits, the Employee and the Company agree to enter into and comply with this Agreement.

A G R E E M E N T:

In consideration of the Company’s offer of employment, compensation, benefits, and the mutual promises and covenants set forth in this Agreement, and other valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Employee and the Company agree to be bound by and comply with this Agreement:

1.Confidentiality.

1.1Except as required by Employee’s duties to the Company, Employee shall not, at any time during employment by Employer or thereafter, directly or indirectly disclose, furnish, make use of, or make accessible to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity, any Confidential Information (as defined below) developed or obtained while Employee was in the employ of the Company.

1.2As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means all information of the Company, whether or not developed by Employee, and all information of its customers and suppliers, including without limitation any formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can derive economic value from its disclosure or use. Confidential Information includes but is not limited to trade secrets, and it may relate to such matters as research and development, manufacturing processes, management systems and techniques, the identity and requirements of customers, the identity of suppliers, strategic or financial data or plans, and sales and marketing plans and information. Confidential Information does not lose its confidential status merely because it was known by a limited number of persons or entities or because it did not originate entirely with the Company.

1.3Employee acknowledges that the above-described knowledge and information constitutes a unique and valuable asset of the Company and represents a substantial investment of time and expense by the Company, that the Company would not grant Employee access to such knowledge and information in the absence of this Agreement, and that any disclosure or other use of such knowledge or information other than for the sole benefit of the Company would be wrongful and would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Employee shall refrain from intentionally committing any acts that would materially reduce the value of such knowledge or information to the Company.

2.Conduct During Employment; Conflicts and Loyalty. Employee understands that Employee owes a duty of loyalty to the Company during the term of Employee’s employment. While employed by the Company, (i) Employee will in good faith devote Employee’s best efforts and entire working time to the performance of services for the Company under the direction of managers and officers of the Company, and (ii) Employee will not serve as an independent contractor, employee, consultant, or in any other business capacity for any other person, firm, corporation or other business entity.

3.Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Covenants.

3.1Agreement Not to Compete. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of one year from and after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, whether such termination is with or without cause, or whether such termination is at the instance of Employee or the Company (the “Restricted Period”), Employee shall not, for himself or herself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any third party, engage or participate, either individually or as an employee, consultant or principal, partner, agent, trustee, officer, director, investor or shareholder of a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other business entity that engages in the Protected Business anywhere in the World. “Protected Business” means the design, development, manufacture, servicing, sale, solicitation, promotion, marketing or distribution of any medical products or services competitive with products manufactured, marketed or sold by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any medical products or services intended to be manufactured, marketed or sold by the Company of the same type or general function. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee had no management duties or responsibilities and was engaged exclusively in sales activities, including selling, soliciting the sale of or supporting the sale of the

Company’s products through direct contact with the Company’s customers, then the restrictions of this Section 3.1 will be limited to all geographic territories and account assignments to which Employee was assigned or for which Employee had supervisory and/or management responsibility during the last twenty four (24) months of Employee’s employment with the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 3.1 shall be deemed to preclude Employee from holding less than 1% of the outstanding capital stock of any corporation required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the securities of which are listed on any national securities exchange or traded on the over-the-counter market.

3.2Agreement Not to Solicit Employees. During the Restricted Period, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, alone or on behalf of any person or business entity, aid, encourage, advise, solicit, induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company to leave his or her employment with the Company in order to accept employment with Employee or with any other person or entity with which Employee is or may become associated, affiliated or connected.

3.3Agreement Not to Solicit Customers and Suppliers.

(a)During the Restricted Period, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, alone or on behalf of any person or business entity, cause or attempt to cause any customer, prospective customer, vendor, supplier, or other business contact of the Company (i) to terminate, limit, or in any manner adversely modify or fail to enter into any actual or potential business relationship with the Company or (ii) to enter into or expand any actual or potential business relationship with any competitor of the Company.

(b)If during the last twelve (12) months of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee had no management duties or responsibilities and was engaged principally in sales activities, including selling, soliciting the sale of or supporting the sale of the Company’s products through direct contact with the Company’s customers, then for a period of two (2) years from and after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, whether such termination is with or without cause, or whether such termination is at the instance of Employee or the Company, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, alone or on behalf of any person or business entity, solicit any person or entity (i) whom Employee or any of Employee’s Subordinates (as defined below), if any, called on or serviced on behalf of the Company at any time during the three (3) years preceding the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company or (ii) from whom Employee or any of Employee’s Subordinates, if any, directly or indirectly solicited business or to whom Employee or any of Employee’s Subordinates, if any, submitted proposals to perform services on behalf of the Company at any time during the three years preceding the termination of Employee’s employment, with respect to any product or service competitive with or similar to any products or services of the Company. For purposes of this Section 3.3(b), “Subordinates” shall include any of the Company’s employees reporting to Employee at any time during the three years preceding the termination of Employee’s employment.

3.4Judicial Modification. If the duration of, the scope of, or any business activity covered by any provision of this Section 3 is in excess of what a court of competent jurisdiction under this Agreement determines to be valid and enforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be construed to cover only that duration, scope or activity that such court determines to be valid and enforceable, and the Company and Employee consent to the judicial modification of the scope

and duration of the restrictions in this Section 3 in any proceeding brought to enforce such restrictions so as to make them valid, reasonable and enforceable. Employee hereby acknowledges that this Section 3 shall be given the construction which renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent, not exceeding its express terms, possible under applicable law.

4.Patents, Copyrights and Related Matters.

4.1Inventions. As used in this Agreement, the term “Invention” means discoveries, inventions, innovations, materials, suggestions, mask works, works of authorship, know-how, ideas (whether or not shown or described in writing or reduced to practice), conceived, reduced to practice, authored, or developed by Employee or jointly with others, whether or not patentable, copyrightable or registerable. “Company Inventions” means any Inventions which (a) relate directly to the business of the Company; (b) relate to the Company’s actual or anticipated research or development; (c) result from any work performed by Employee for the Company, for which equipment, supplies, facility or Company Confidential Information is used; or (d) is developed on any Company time.

4.2Disclosure of Prior Inventions. Employee has identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement all Inventions relating in any way to the Company’s business or demonstrably anticipated research and development that were made by Employee prior to employment with the Company, and Employee represents that such list is complete. Employee represents that Employee has no rights in any such Inventions other than those specified in Exhibit A. If there is no such list on Exhibit A, Employee represents that Employee has made no such Inventions at the time of signing this Agreement.

4.3Obligations Regarding Company Inventions. Employee understands that the Company is continually developing new products, processes, systems and machines of which Employee may have knowledge. Employee agrees that during Employment, to the extent Employee is involved with Company Inventions, Employee will (a) keep accurate, complete and timely records of all Company Inventions, which records shall be the Company’s property and be retained on the Company’s premises; (b) promptly and fully disclose and describe all Company Inventions in writing; (c) assign (and Employee does hereby assign) to the Company all of Employee’s rights to all Company Inventions, and to applications for letters patent, copyright registrations and/or mask work registrations in all countries and to letters patent, copyright registrations and/or mask work registrations granted upon such Company Inventions in all countries; and (d) acknowledge and deliver promptly to the Company (without charge to the Company but at the Company’s expense) such written instruments and to do such other acts as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to preserve Company Inventions against forfeiture, abandonment, or loss, and to obtain, defend or maintain such letters patent, copyright registrations and/or mask work registrations, and to vest the entire right and title thereto in the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in some circumstances, the provisions of this Section 4 may not apply to inventions for which no equipment, supplies, facility or trade secret information of the Company was used and which were developed entirely on Employee’s own time, and (a) which do not relate directly to the business of the Company or to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, and (b) which do not result from any work performed by Employee for the Company.

4.4Future Inventions. Employee recognizes that Company Inventions or Confidential Information relating to Employee’s activities while working for the Company and

conceived or made by Employee, alone or with others, within one (1) year after termination of employment may have been conceived in significant part while employed by the Company. Accordingly, Employee agrees that such post-employment Inventions and proprietary information will be presumed to have been conceived during employment with the Company and are to be assigned and are hereby assigned to the Company unless and until Employee has established the contrary.

4.5Appointment of Company as Agent/Attorney-in-Fact. In the event that the Company is unable for any reason to secure Employee’s signature to any document required to apply for or execute any patent, copyright, maskwork or other applications with respect to any Inventions (including improvements, renewals, extensions, continuations, divisions or continuations in part thereof), Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Employee’s agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and on my behalf and instead of Employee, to execute and file any such application and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patents, copyrights, maskworks or other rights thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Employee.

5.Return of Records and Property; Cooperation.

5.1Upon termination of Employee’s employment, upon Employee’s resignation, or at any time immediately upon the Company’s request, Employee shall promptly deliver to the Company any and all loaners, tool kits, Company records and any and all Company property in Employee’s possession or under Employee’s control and all copies thereof (whether in hard copy or stored in electronic or magnetic media, whether furnished by the Company or compiled by Employee, and whether or not containing Confidential Information), including without limitation products, formulae, technology, processes, marketing plans, price lists, customer lists, prospect lists, manuals, books, blank forms, documents, correspondence, memoranda, notes, notebooks, reports, printouts, computer disks, computer tapes, source codes, data, tables, calculations, and all other materials or information relating to the business of the Company, and keys, access cards, access codes or other access information, passwords, credit cards, personal computers, telephones and other electronic equipment belonging to the Company.

5.2Upon termination of Employee’s employment or at any time as requested by the Company, Employee agrees to make available to any person designated by the Company all information that Employee has concerning work Employee performed for the Company and any pending, reasonably anticipated or past transactions that may affect operation of the Company.

6.At-Will Employment. Unless Employee has entered into an express written agreement signed by an officer of the Company which explicitly alters the at-will relationship, Employee’s employment relationship with the Company is at will and it is not for any fixed term or duration. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment with the Company at any time and for any reason, with or without cause or notice. Employee may terminate Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason at any time. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to alter this at-will employment relationship, and such at-will employment relationship may not be modified except by an express written agreement signed by an officer of the Company and Employee.

7.No Conflicting Obligations. Employee represents and warrants to the Company that Employee is not contractually prohibited from executing and abiding by this Agreement, and that

Employee’s employment with the Company, and the performance of any duties as an Employee of the Company, will not breach or conflict with any non-competition, confidentiality, or other obligations to another employer. Employee further represents and warrants that Employee has not brought and will not bring to this employment by the Company any confidential or proprietary information, including trade secrets, of prior employers and agrees not to make use of or disclose such confidential or proprietary information in carrying out Employee’s duties.

8.Subsequent Engagement; Mandatory Notice. Employee agrees that during the Restricted Period, Employee will give the Company written notice delivered to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, before accepting employment or any other type of engagement with any person(s) or entity that provides or plans to provide products or services similar to any products or services of the Company or for the benefit of similar clients to those of the Company. Such written notice will identify the new employer or contracting party, describe the nature of its business, and describe the Employee’s proposed job duties and Employee’s geographic territory or responsibilities.

9.Remedies. Employee hereby acknowledges that the provisions of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company and that any violation of the provisions of this Agreement by Employee would cause substantial and irreparable harm to the Company. Employee further acknowledges that it would be difficult to fully compensate the Company for monetary damages resulting from any breach by Employee of the provisions hereof. Accordingly, in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any such provisions, the Company shall, in addition to any other remedies it may have, be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to enforce such provisions, such relief may be granted without the necessity of proving actual monetary damages. Employee agrees that in the event Employee is found to have breached (or threatened to breach) any provision of this Agreement, Employee will be liable to Employer for reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs which the Employer incurred in enforcing this Agreement.

10.Miscellaneous.

10.1Governing Law. In order to provide the Employee and Company with certainty and predictability, the Employee and Company agree that all matters relating to the interpretation, construction, application, validity and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule, whether of the State of Tennessee or any other jurisdiction, that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Tennessee.

10.2Mandatory Jurisdiction and Venue. In order to facilitate efficient litigation and to provide the Employee and Company with certainty and predictability, the Employee and Company agree that the courts of the State of Tennessee and/or the federal district courts, Western District of Tennessee, shall have exclusive jurisdiction for the purpose of interpreting, enforcing, and resolving all issues of law, equity, or fact, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and all other claims and disputes related to the Employee’s employment with and/or separation from employment with the Employer. Any action involving such claims or disputes shall be brought in such courts. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction over such party in the State and/or federal courts of Tennessee and hereby waives any defense of lack of personal jurisdiction. Venue, for the purpose of all such suits shall be in the State or federal courts located in Shelby County, Tennessee.

10.3Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and any employment agreement signed by an officer of the Company between the Company and Employee contain the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter addressed therein and supersede all prior agreements and understandings with respect to such subject matter, and the parties hereto have made no other agreements, representations or warranties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.

10.4Amendments. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of the Company, and the Employee.

10.5No Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, except by a statement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought. Any written waiver shall not be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated, shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. Failure of the Company to require strict compliance with this Agreement or to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement in response to a breach by Employee does not constitute a waiver of the Company’s right subsequently to seek enforcement as to that breach or any other breach of this Agreement.

The Executive intends to affect a full and final general release of all such Claims. It is expressly understood and agreed that this Release is intended to cover, and does cover, not only all now known injuries, losses, and damages, including injuries, losses, and damages not now known or anticipated, but which may later be discovered after the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined as the date when the Executive signs this Release), including all the effects and consequences thereof.

More specifically, by signing this Release, the Executive agrees to release any actual and potential Claims that the Executive has or may potentially have, either as an individual or standing in the shoes of the government, under any foreign, federal, state or local law, administrative regulation or legal principle (except as provided below in this Release) against the Company or any and all other Released Parties. The following listing of laws and types of Claims is not meant to, and shall not be interpreted to, exclude any particular law or type of Claim, law, regulation or legal principle not listed. The Executive understands that the Executive is releasing all Claims against the Company and all Released Parties including, but not limited to, any Claims for expense reimbursement or expenses, Claims for invasion of privacy; breach of written or oral, express or implied, contract; fraud or misrepresentation; Claims for assault, battery, defamation, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, promissory estoppel, negligence, negligent hiring, retention or supervision, retaliation, constructive discharge, violation of whistleblower protection laws, unjust enrichment, violation of public policy, and any Claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”), 42 U.S.C. § 2000e, et seq., the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), as amended by the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (“ADAAA”), 29 U.S.C. § 12101, et seq., the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), as amended, 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001, et seq., the Equal Pay Act (“EPA”), 29 U.S.C. § 206(d), the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”), 29 U.S.C. § 2601, et seq., the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (“XXXX”), the Minnesota Human Rights Act (“MHRA”), Minn.

The Executive declares that the Executive understands, covenants, and agrees that the Executive will not make any Claims or demands, or file any legal proceedings against the Company or join the Company as a party with respect to any Claims released by the Executive, nor shall the Executive proceed against any other Released Party, person, firm, or corporation on the Claims released above except as is necessary to enforce the terms and conditions of this Release and the Separation Pay Agreement between the Executive and the Company. The Executive further declares that the Executive is voluntarily forfeiting any right to recover or receive compensation in any form resulting from a legal action or demand against the Company by any other person or persons with respect to the Claims released by the Executive herein.

The filing of any claim, demand or any and all other legal proceedings by the Executive against the Company with respect to Claims released by the Executive shall be deemed to be a material breach of the terms of this Release. Such breach shall immediately terminate Company’s duty to pay any further sums to the Executive. Additionally, the Executive shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all judgments, costs, expenses, or attorneys’ fees whatsoever arising on account of the filing of any such claim, demand, or other legal proceedings by the Executive with respect to the Claims the Executive has released.

It is further understood and agreed that the Company will pay and the Executive is accepting severance payments and benefits more fully described in the Separation Pay Agreement between the parties in full accord and satisfaction of any obligations, Claims, and/or disputes that the Executive may have with the Company with respect to the Executive’s Released Claims.

The Executive understands and agrees that this is the full and complete understanding of the parties, that it is the integrated memorial of their agreement, and that there are no other written or oral understandings, agreements, covenants, promises or arrangements, directly or indirectly connected with this Release, that are not incorporated herein. The terms of this Release are contractual and are not mere recitals.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Release shall release any party from obligations resulting from the Separation Pay Agreement nor prohibit any party from seeking the enforcement of the Separation Pay Agreement.

The Executive understands that the consideration the Executive is receiving for settling and releasing the Executive’s Claims is contingent upon the Executive’s agreement to be bound by the terms of this Release. Accordingly, if the Executive attempts to revoke this Release as provided above, the Executive understands that the Executive is not entitled to the post-termination payments and benefits, other than the Accrued Obligations, offered in the Separation Pay Agreement. The Executive further understands that if the Executive attempts to revoke the Executive’s release of the Executive’s Claims, the Executive must immediately return to Company the post-termination payments and benefits, other than the Accrued Obligations, that the Executive may have received under the Executive’s Separation Pay Agreement.

AGREED AND ACCEPTED

The Company has advised the Executive of the Executive’s right to review this Release with the Executive’s own attorney. The Executive has had the opportunity to carefully read this Release and understands all its terms.

EXHIBIT D

MODIFIED 280G CUTBACK

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in any other agreement between or among the Executive, the Company or any of its Affiliates or in any plan maintained by the Company or any Affiliate, if there is a 280G Change in Control (as defined in Section (g)(i) below), the following rules shall apply:

(a)Except as otherwise provided in Section (b) below, if it is determined in accordance with Section (d) below that any portion of the Payments (as defined in Section (g)(ii) below) that otherwise would be paid or provided to the Executive or for the Executive’s benefit in connection with the 280G Change in Control would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (“Excise Tax”), then such Payments shall be reduced by the smallest total amount necessary in order for the aggregate present value of all such Payments after such reduction, as determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, not to exceed the Excise Tax Threshold Amount (as defined in Section (g)(iii) below).

(b)No reduction in any of the Executive’s Payments shall be made pursuant to Section (a) above if it is determined in accordance with Section (d) below that the After Tax Amount of the Payments payable to the Executive without such reduction would exceed the After Tax Amount of the reduced Payments payable to the Executive in accordance with Section (a) above. For purposes of the foregoing, (i) the “After Tax Amount” of the Payments, as computed with, and as computed without, the reduction provided for under Section (a) above, shall mean the amount of the Payments, as so computed, that the Executive would retain after payment of all taxes (including without limitation any federal, state or local income taxes, the Excise Tax or any other excise taxes, any medicare or other employment taxes, and any other taxes) imposed on such Payments in the year or years in which payable; and (ii) the amount of such taxes shall be computed at the rates in effect under the applicable tax laws in the year in which the 280G Change in Control occurs, or if then ascertainable, the rates in effect in any later year in which any Payment is expected to be paid following the 280G Change in Control, and in the case of any income taxes, by using the maximum combined federal, state and (if applicable) local income tax rates then in effect under such laws.

(c)Any reduction in the Executive’s Payments required to be made pursuant to Section (a) above (the “Required Reduction”) shall be made as follows: first, any Payments that became fully vested prior to the 280G Change in Control and that pursuant to paragraph (b) of Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q/A 24 are treated as Payments solely by reason of the acceleration of their originally scheduled dates of payment shall be reduced, by cancellation of the acceleration of their dates of payment; second, any severance payments or benefits, performance-based cash or performance-based equity incentive awards, or other Payments, in all cases the full amounts of which are treated as contingent on the 280G Change in Control pursuant to paragraph (a) of Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q/A 24, shall be reduced; and third, any cash or equity incentive awards, or non-qualified deferred compensation amounts, that vest solely based on the Executive’s continued service with the Company or any of its Affiliates, and that pursuant to paragraph (c) of Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q/A 24 are treated as contingent on the 280G Change in Control because they become vested as a result of the 280G Change in Control, shall be reduced, first by cancellation of any acceleration of their originally scheduled dates of payment (if payment with respect to such items is not treated as

automatically occurring upon the vesting of such items for purposes of Section 280G) and then, if necessary, by canceling the acceleration of their vesting. In each case, the amounts of the Payments shall be reduced in the inverse order of their originally scheduled dates of payment or vesting, as applicable, and shall be so reduced only to the extent necessary to achieve the Required Reduction.

(d)A determination as to whether any Excise Tax is payable with respect to the Executive’s Payments and if so, as to the amount thereof, and a determination as to whether any reduction in the Executive’s Payments is required pursuant to the provisions of Sections (a) and (b) above, and if so, as to the amount of the reduction so required, shall be made by no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the closing of the transaction or the occurrence of the event that constitutes the 280G Change in Control, or as soon thereafter as administratively practicable. Such determinations, and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by an independent auditor (the “Auditor”) jointly selected by the Executive and the Company, all of whose fees and expenses shall be borne and directly paid solely by the Company. The Auditor shall be a nationally recognized public accounting firm which has not, during the two (2) years preceding the date of its selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company or any of its Affiliates or for any entity effecting the 280G Change in Control. If the Executive and the Company cannot agree on the firm to serve as Auditor, then the Executive and the Company shall each select one (1) accounting firm and those two (2) firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor. The Auditor shall provide a written report of its determinations, including detailed supporting calculations, both to the Executive and to the Company. If the Auditor determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to the Executive’s Payments, either as a result of any Required Reduction the Auditor has determined should be made thereto or because the Auditor has determined that no Required Reduction must be made thereto, the written report which the auditor furnishes to the Executive and to the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be accompanied by an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to the Executive’s Payments. Except as otherwise provided in Section (e) or Section (f) below, the determinations made by the Auditor pursuant to this Section (d) shall be binding upon the Executive and the Company and its Affiliates.

(e)If, notwithstanding (1) any determination made pursuant to Section (d) above that a reduction in the Executive’s Payments is not required pursuant to Section (a) above or (2) any reduction in the Executive’s Payments made pursuant to Section (a) above, the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) subsequently asserts that the Executive is liable for Excise Tax with respect to such Payments, the Payments then remaining to be paid or provided to the Executive shall be reduced as provided in Sections (a) and (b) above or shall be further reduced as provided in Section (a) above, and (if still necessary after such reduction or further reduction) any Payments already made to the Executive shall be repaid to the Company or its Affiliates, to the extent necessary to eliminate the Excise Tax asserted by the IRS to be payable by the Executive. Any such reduction or further reduction or repayment (i) shall be made only if the IRS agrees that such reduction or further reduction or repayment will be effective to avoid the imposition of any Excise Tax with respect to the Executive’s Payments as so reduced or repaid and agrees not to impose such Excise Tax against the Executive if such reduction or further reduction or repayment is made, and (ii) shall be made in the manner described in Section (c) above,

(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing provisions of this Exhibit D, if (i) the Executive’s Payments have been reduced pursuant to Section (a) above and the IRS

nevertheless subsequently determines that Excise Tax is payable with respect to the Executive’s Payments, and (ii) if the After Tax Amount of the Payments payable to the Executive, determined without any further reduction or repayment as provided in Section (e) above, and without any initial reduction as provided in Section (a) above, would exceed the After Tax Amount of the Payments payable to the Executive as reduced in accordance with Section (a), then (A) no such further reduction or repayment shall be made with respect to the Executive’s Payments pursuant to Section (e) above, and (B) the Company or its Affiliate shall pay to the Executive an amount equal to the reduction in the Executive’s Payments that was initially made pursuant to Section (a). Such amount shall be paid to the Executive in a cash lump sum by no later than the fifteenth (15^th) day of the third (3^rd) month following the close of the calendar year in which the IRS makes its final determination that Excise Tax is due with respect to the Executive’s Payments, provided that by such day the Executive has paid the Excise Tax so determined to be due.

(g)For purposes of the foregoing, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

(i)“280G Change in Control” shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Parent Corporation or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Parent Corporation, as determined in accordance with Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder.

(ii)“Payment” shall mean any payment or benefit in the nature of compensation that is to be paid or provided to the Executive or for the Executive’s benefit in connection with a 280G Change in Control, to the extent that such payment or benefit is “contingent” on the 280G Change in Control within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder.

(iii)“Excise Tax Threshold Amount” shall mean an amount equal to (x) three (3) times the Executive’s “base amount” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, less (y) $1,000.
