7

Shareholder and each Company Payee shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days of the final determination thereof) pay to Buyer the difference between the Estimated Closing Cash Payment and the final Closing Cash Payment, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Buyer, each such payment equal to such difference multiplied by the applicable percentage set forth on the Merger Consideration Payment Schedule.

(iii)                                The Shareholder, each Company Payee and Buyer agree to treat any payment made pursuant to this Section 3.5 as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

3.6                                Preparation of Closing Statement .  The Closing Statement (and all calculations of Target Working Capital, Working Capital, the Cash Amount, Funded Debt and the Transaction Expenses) shall be prepared and calculated in accordance with the same or substantially similar accounting methodologies, principles and procedures used in, and on a basis consistent with, those applied in preparing the Financial Statements (collectively, the “ Accounting Principles ”) except that the Closing Statement (and all calculations of Target Working Capital, Working Capital, the Cash Amount, Funded Debt and the Transaction Expenses) shall not include any purchase accounting or other adjustment arising out of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)                                  Any Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, including the MiMedx Litigation, at such Indemnifying Party’s expense, and at its option will have the right to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided , however , that (x) the Indemnifying Party must acknowledge that it would have an indemnity obligation for Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim as provided under, and subject to the limitations in, this ARTICLE XII and (y) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose, except that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party (other than as set forth below).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or maintain control of the defense of any Third Party Claim and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (i) the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the acknowledgment referred to in the previous sentence within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 12.4, (ii) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (iii) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or (iv) the amount of Losses sought pursuant to the Third Party Claim exceeds the Losses for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder.  If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or issue or permit any public statement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless the judgment or proposed settlement involves solely the payment of money damages, does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party and provides for the express and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim with prejudice, in which case no consent will be required as to such judgment or settlement; provided , further , that the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim.  An Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided that such consent shall not be required in the event that such settlement expressly releases the Indemnifying Party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim.  The Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the review, investigation and defense of any such claim, shall make available its personnel, and shall provide such testimony and access to its books and records as is reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith.

12.5                         Non-Third Party Matters .  Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “ Direct Claim ”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim.  The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request.  If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

12.6                         Determination of Losses .  The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under this ARTICLE XII shall be calculated net of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party on account of such Loss (net of the present value of any increase in premiums actually imposed by the applicable insurance carrier as a result of the occurrence of the Loss and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in recovering such insurance proceeds with respect to such Loss).

12.7                         Exclusive Remedy .  The Parties acknowledge and agree that, after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this ARTICLE XII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parties and their Affiliates with respect to any claim related to or arising from this Agreement, the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the performance by the Parties of their respective obligations hereunder, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided , however , that with respect to: (i) a determination by the FDA that a BLA, PMA, 510(k) or other pre-authorization or preapproval is required for the marketing of the Company’s NuCel or ReNu products, the forfeiture provisions contained in Section 3.4(c) and Section 3.4(d) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Buyer and Buyer Indemnitees and (ii) a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 15.1(e), the payment of a Reverse Break-up Fee pursuant to Section 15.1(e) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and the Seller

48

Indemnitees.  The Parties may not avoid the limitations on liability, recovery and recourse set forth in this ARTICLE XII by seeking damages for breach of contract, tort or pursuant to any other theory or liability.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) the Seller Indemnitees’ aggregate liability under, or related to, this Agreement shall in no event exceed the value of the total amount of the Merger Consideration actually paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement and (b) the Buyer Indemnitees’ aggregate liability under, or related to, this Agreement shall in no event exceed the value of Buyer Common Stock issued or issuable (valuing Buyer Common Stock at a per share price equal to the Buyer Common Stock Closing Date Value).  Nothing in this Section 12.7 shall prevent or prohibit a Party from seeking and/or obtaining specific performance in accordance with Section 16.10.

12.8                         Satisfaction of Losses.

(a)                                  Except as otherwise provided in this ARTICLE XII, any Losses for which a Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification with respect to the matters described in Section 12.2(a)(i) shall be satisfied by: (i) deducting an amount of such Losses from the Post-Closing Cash Consideration and the Interest Payment that remains unpaid as of such date equal to the product of ( x ) the Cash Ratio (as defined below) multiplied by ( y ) the aggregate amount of such Losses (the “ Cash Loss Allocation Amount ”) and (ii) the forfeiture by the Shareholder of a portion of the Equity Consideration (a number of shares of Buyer Common Stock rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (A) the product of ( x ) the Equity Ratio (as defined below) multiplied by ( y ) the aggregate amount of such Losses (the “ Equity Loss Allocation Amount ”), divided by (B) the Buyer Common Stock Closing Date Value, provided that, with respect to the amounts set forth in (i) above, unpaid Interest Payment amounts shall be deducted before any amount of Post-Closing Cash Consideration.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Buyer may, in its sole discretion, to the extent the Shareholder and each Company Payee has received Post-Closing Cash Consideration, require that the Shareholder and each Company Payee satisfy the Cash Loss Allocation Amount by paying, on a joint and several basis, such amount (up to the amount of Post-Closing Cash Consideration received by the Shareholder or Company Payee at the time) to Buyer no later than fifteen (15) calendar days after the final determination of such Losses instead of deducting such amount from the unpaid Post-Closing Cash Consideration and (ii) the Shareholder may elect in his sole and absolute discretion to satisfy any amount of Losses exclusively in cash in lieu of the forfeiture of any Buyer Common Stock.

For purposes of this Section 12.8(a), “ Cash Ratio ” means a fraction, the numerator of which is 20 and the denominator of which is 55 and “ Equity Ratio ” means a fraction, the numerator of which is 35 and the denominator of which is 55; provided , however , that if the payment of Cash Consideration or the forfeiture of Equity Consideration would otherwise cause the aggregate amount of Equity Consideration payable to the Shareholder under this Agreement to drop below forty percent (40%) of the total Merger Consideration, then the Cash Ratio and Equity Ratio shall be automatically adjusted if, when and as necessary to preserve the status of the Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, such that the relevant portion of any payment required to be made in Cash Consideration shall be instead paid in Equity Consideration (or the amount of any required Equity Consideration to be forfeited shall be paid in Cash Consideration instead of Equity Consideration) so the Equity Consideration is at all times equal to at least forty percent (40%) of the total Merger Consideration paid on a cumulative basis to the Shareholder under this Agreement.

49

(b)                                  In the event that a portion of the Equity Consideration is forfeited pursuant to Section 12.8(a) the Shareholder covenants and agrees to promptly, but in any event no later than five (5) calendar days after final determination of such Losses, surrender the original stock certificate(s) representing such forfeited portion of the Equity Consideration to Buyer together with an executed stock transfer power in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, so that such original stock certificate(s) may be cancelled. Buyer covenants and agrees that, promptly following the delivery of the original stock certificate(s) representing the Equity Consideration together with an executed stock transfer power pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 12.8(b), it shall issue a new original stock certificate to the Shareholder representing the portion (if any) of the Equity Consideration that remains outstanding after giving effect to the forfeiture of a portion of Equity Consideration pursuant to Section 12.8(b).

12.9                         Effect of Investigation .  The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in ARTICLE X or ARTICLE XI, as the case may be.

12.10                  Other Indemnification Matters .  All indemnification payments under this ARTICLE XII will be deemed adjustments to the Merger Consideration including for federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.
