COMPLETE, UNREDACTED COPIES OF THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AS PART OF THIS COMPANY’S CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUEST

(c)     TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OR AS A RESULT OF NON-EXTENSION OF THIS AGREEMENT BY THE EMPLOYEE. If the Employee’s employment is terminated: (x) by the Company for Cause or (y) as a result of the non-extension of the Employment Term by the Employee as provided in Section  2 hereof, the Company shall pay to the Employee the Accrued Benefits other than the benefit described in Section 7(a)(ii) hereof.

(d)     TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR TERMINATION BY THE EMPLOYEE FOR GOOD REASON OR OTHERWISE. If the Employee’s employment is terminated: (x) by the Company other than for Cause, (y) by the Employee for Good Reason or (z) the non-extension of the Employment Term by the Company as provided in Section  2 hereof, the Company shall pay or provide the Employee with the following, subject to the provisions of Section  23 hereof:

(i)    the Accrued Benefits; and

(ii)    subject to the Employee’s continued compliance with the obligations in Sections 8 , 9 and 10 hereof, an amount equal to the Employee’s monthly Base Salary rate (but not as an employee), paid monthly for a period of 12 months following such termination (the “ Severance Period ”); provided that to the extent that the payment of any amount constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A (as defined in Section  23 hereof), any such payment scheduled to occur during the first sixty (60) days following the termination of employment shall not be paid until the first regularly scheduled pay period following the sixtieth (60 ^th ) day following such termination and shall include payment of any amount that was otherwise scheduled to be paid prior thereto.

Payments and benefits provided in this Section 7(d) shall be in lieu of any termination or severance payments or benefits for which the Employee may be eligible under any of the plans, policies or programs of the Company or under the Worker Adjustment Retraining Notification Act of 1988 or any similar state statute or regulation.

(e)     CODE SECTION 280G.

(i)    Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that it shall be determined that any payment, distribution, or other action by the Company to or for the benefit of the Employee (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or otherwise (each a “ Payment ”)), would result in an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(i) of the Code, but that no portion of the Payments would be treated as excess parachute payments if the aggregate amount of the Payments were reduced by not more 10% of the aggregate present value of all of the Payments, then the Payments shall be reduced to the “ Reduced Amount ”. The “ Reduced Amount ” shall be an amount expressed in present value which maximizes the aggregate present value of Payments without causing any Payment to be an excess parachute payment under Section 280G(b)(i) of the Code. For purposes of this Section 7(e), present value shall be determined in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code. If applicable, Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (A) any cash severance based on a multiple of Base Salary or Annual Bonus; (B) any other cash amounts payable to the Employee; (C) benefits valued as parachute payments; and (D) acceleration of vesting of any equity awards. If and to the extent necessary to avoid a violation of Section 409A, no amounts payable under any “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” subject to Section 409A shall be reduced until after all other Payments have been reduced.

(ii)    All determinations required to be made under this Section 7(e), including the amount of any Reduced Amount and the Payments that are to be reduced pursuant to Section 7(e)(i) and shall be made by the Company’s accountants (the “ Accounting Firm ”), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Employee within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Employee that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. The Accounting Firm’s decision as to which Payments are to be reduced shall be made in consultation with the Employee and shall be subject to the Employee’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

8.      RELEASE. Any and all amounts payable and benefits or additional rights provided pursuant to this Agreement beyond the Accrued Benefits (other than amounts described in Section 7(a )( ii)7(a)(iii) hereof) shall only be payable if the Employee delivers to the Company and does not revoke a general release of claims in favor of the Company in substantially the form attached on Exhibit D hereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit the Employee from being a passive owner of not more than one percent (1%) of the equity securities of a publicly traded corporation engaged in a business that is in competition with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, so long as the Employee has no active participation in the business of such corporation. In addition, the provisions of this Section 9(b) shall not be violated by the Employee commencing employment with a subsidiary, division or unit of any entity that engages in a business in competition with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates so long as the Employee and such subsidiary, division or unit with which he is employed does not engage in a business in competition with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

(c)     NONSOLICITATION; NONINTERFERENCE. (i) During the Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of 12 months thereafter, the Employee agrees that the Employee shall not, except in the furtherance of the Employee’s duties hereunder, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, solicit, aid or induce any customer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to purchase goods or services then sold by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates from another person, firm, corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other persons or entity in identifying or soliciting any such customer.

The Employee will keep full and complete written records (the “ Records ”), in the manner prescribed by the Company, of all Inventions, and will

NOTE: PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT INDICATED BY [****] ARE SUBJECT TO A CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUEST, AND HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT. COMPLETE, UNREDACTED COPIES OF THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AS PART OF THIS COMPANY’S CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUEST

promptly disclose all Inventions completely and in writing to the Company. The Records shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and the Employee will surrender them upon the termination of the Employment Term, or upon the Company’s request. The Employee irrevocably conveys, transfers and assigns to the Company the Inventions and all patents or other intellectual property rights that may issue thereon in any and all countries, whether during or subsequent to the Employment Term, together with the right to file, in the Employee’s name or in the name of the Company (or its designee), applications for patents and equivalent rights (the “ Applications ”). The Employee will, at any time during and subsequent to the Employment Term, make such applications, sign such papers, take all rightful oaths, and perform all other acts as may be requested from time to time by the Company to perfect, record, enforce, protect, patent or register the Company’s rights in the Inventions, all without additional compensation to the Employee from the Company. The Employee will also execute assignments to the Company (or its designee) of the Applications, and give the Company and its attorneys all reasonable assistance (including the giving of testimony) to obtain the Inventions for the Company’s benefit, all without additional compensation to the Employee from the Company, but entirely at the Company’s expense.

(ii)    In addition, the Inventions will be deemed Work for Hire, as such term is defined under the copyright laws of the United States, on behalf of the Company and the Employee agrees that the Company will be the sole owner of the Inventions, and all underlying rights therein, in all media now known or hereinafter devised, throughout the universe and in perpetuity without any further obligations to the Employee. If the Inventions, or any portion thereof, are deemed not to be Work for Hire, or the rights in such Inventions do not otherwise automatically vest in the Company, the Employee hereby irrevocably conveys, transfers and assigns to the Company, all rights, in all media now known or hereinafter devised, throughout the universe and in perpetuity, in and to the Inventions, including, without limitation, all of the Employee’s right, title and interest in the copyrights (and all renewals, revivals and extensions thereof) to the Inventions, including, without limitation, all rights of any kind or any nature now or hereafter recognized, including, without limitation, the unrestricted right to make modifications, adaptations and revisions to the Inventions, to exploit and allow others to exploit the Inventions and all rights to sue at law or in equity for any infringement, or other unauthorized use or conduct in derogation of the Inventions, known or unknown, prior to the date hereof, including, without limitation, the right to receive all proceeds and damages therefrom. In addition, the Employee hereby waives any so-called “moral rights” with respect to the Inventions. To the extent that the Employee has any rights in the results and proceeds of the Employee’s service to the Company that cannot be assigned in the manner described herein, the Employee agrees to unconditionally waive the enforcement of such rights. The Employee hereby waives any and all currently existing and future monetary rights in and to the Inventions and all patents and other registrations for intellectual property that may issue thereon, including, without limitation, any rights that would otherwise accrue to the Employee’s benefit by virtue of the Employee being an employee of or other service provider to the Company.

(iii)    The parties to this Agreement have the right to disclose in confidence trade secrets to federal, state, and local government officials, or to an attorney, for the sole purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. The parties also have the right to disclose trade secrets in a document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, but only if the filing is made under seal and protected from public disclosure.

(iv)    18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) provides: “An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.” Nothing in this Agreement is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b). Accordingly, the parties to this Agreement have the right to disclose in confidence trade secrets to federal, state, and local government officials, or to an attorney, for the sole purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. The parties also have the right to disclose trade secrets in a document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, but only if the filing is made under seal and protected from public disclosure.

(f)     REASONABLENESS OF COVENANTS.

The Employee acknowledges that each of these covenants has a unique, very substantial and immeasurable value to the Company and its affiliates and that the Employee has sufficient assets and skills to provide a livelihood while such covenants remain in force. The Employee further covenants that the Employee will not challenge the reasonableness or enforceability of any of the covenants set forth in this Section  9 , and that the Employee will reimburse the Company and its affiliates for all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with any action to enforce any of the provisions of this Section  9 if either the Company and/or its affiliates prevails on any material issue involved in such dispute or if the Employee challenges the reasonableness or enforceability of any of the provisions of this Section  9 .

(h)     TOLLING. In the event of any violation of the provisions of this Section  9 , the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the post-termination restrictions contained in this Section  9 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period of such violation, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the running of the applicable post-termination restriction period shall be tolled during any period of such violation.

23.    TAX MATTERS.

(a)     WITHHOLDING . The Company may withhold from any and all amounts payable under this Agreement or otherwise such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

(b)     SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE.

(i)    The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “ Code Section 409A ”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to the Employee and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Employee by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.

(ii)    A 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 upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Employee is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until 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 Employee, and (B) the date of the Employee’s death, to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 23(b)(ii) (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 Employee in a lump sum , 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.

(iii)    To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A: (A) all expenses or other reimbursements hereunder 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 Employee; (B) any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(iv)    For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Employee’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, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.

(v)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

24.      REIMBURSEMENT OF LEGAL EXPENSES. Within 60 days of the date of this Agreement, the Company will pay to the Employee up to $25,000 to cover his legal expenses in connection with the review and negotiation of this Agreement, so long as he provides sufficiently detailed backup for such expenses.

RTI SURGICAL, INC.

STAND ALONE RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT #1

This RTI SURGICAL, INC. STAND ALONE RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT #1 (this “ Agreement ”), dated as of January 26, 2017 (the “ Grant Date ”), is entered into by and between RTI Surgical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), and Camille Farhat (the “ Grantee ”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “ Committee ”) has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to provide that the Grantee receive a portion of his compensation in the form of restricted shares of the common stock of the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions provided in this Agreement, thereby encouraging stock ownership, and permitting the acquisition of an equity interest, in the Company; and

WHEREAS, on the Grant Date, the Company and the Grantee are entering into an employment agreement governing the terms of the Grantee’s employment with the Company (the “ Employment Agreement ”; any capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement shall have the same defined meanings as in the Employment Agreement); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Employment Agreement, as part of the Grantee’s compensation, the Company is granting a matching restricted stock award to the Grantee, and the Grantee is accepting such grant, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual promises contained herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.      GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK . Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee 850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value of $0.001 per share (the “ Restricted Stock ”), as of the Grant Date. The extent to which the Grantee’s rights and interest in the Restricted Stock becomes vested and non-forfeitable shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2 of this Agreement.

2.      VESTING. The vesting of the Grantee’s rights and interest in the Restricted Stock shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.

COMPLETE, UNREDACTED COPIES OF THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AS PART OF THIS COMPANY’S CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUEST.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2(b) and 4 hereof, there shall be no proportionate or partial vesting of shares of Restricted Stock in or during the months, days or periods prior to each Vesting Date, and all vesting of shares of Restricted Stock shall occur only on the applicable Vesting Date. Upon termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company for any reason, the unvested portion of the Restricted Stock shall immediately terminate and be null and void; provided, however, if the Employee’s employment is terminated: (x) by the Company other than for Cause or (y) by the Employee for Good Reason, the vesting of the Restricted Stock shall continue until the 18 month anniversary date of the employment termination date. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Employee’s employment is terminated by the Employee before March 15, 2018 for any reason other than Good Reason, all of the unvested Restricted Stock shall be forfeited

(b)     Potential Acceleration of Vesting . Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(a) above:

i.    In the event that the Grantee continues to be employed with the Company upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Schedule I , then 50% of the unvested portion of the Restricted Stock shall vest as of such satisfaction.

ii.    In the event that the Grantee continues to be employed with the Company upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Schedule II , the 50% of the unvested portion of the Restricted Stock shall vest as of such satisfaction.

iii.    Upon a “Change in Control” of the Company during the Grantee’s employment with the Company, all of the unvested portion Restricted Stock shall vest as of the date of such Change in Control.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means any of the following events:

(A)    The acquisition by any person of Beneficial Ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of more than thirty-five percent (35%) of either (1) the value of then outstanding equity securities of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Stock”) or (2) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”) (the foregoing Beneficial Ownership hereinafter being referred to as a “Controlling Interest”); provided, however, that for purposes of this definition, (1) the securities owned by the Water Street Fund and any of its affiliates, including WSHP Biologics Holdings, LLC, Water Street Management, and Water Street GP shall be excluded from the determination of any person’s Beneficial Ownership and (2) the following acquisitions shall not constitute or result in a Change in Control: (w) any acquisition by the Company; (x) any acquisition by any Person that as of the Grant Date owns Beneficial Ownership of a Controlling Interest; (y) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Related Entity; or (z) any acquisition by any entity pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (1) and (2) of subsection (C) below; or

(B)    During any period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the Grant Date) individuals who constitute the Board on the Grant Date (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Grant Date whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

(C)    Consummation of (1) a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange or consolidation or similar transaction involving (x) the Company or (y) any of its subsidiaries, but in the case of this clause (y) only if equity securities of the Company are issued or issuable in connection with the transaction (each of the events referred to in this clause (1) being hereinafter referred to as a “Business Reorganization”), or (2) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the acquisition of assets or equity of another entity by the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each an “Asset Sale”), in each case, unless, following such Business Reorganization or Asset Sale, (I) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the Beneficial Owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Reorganization or Asset Sale beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the value of the then outstanding equity securities and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of members of the board of directors (or comparable governing body of an entity that does not have such a board), as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such Business Reorganization or Asset Sale (including, without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) (the “Continuing Entity”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Reorganization or Asset Sale, of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be (excluding any outstanding equity or voting securities of the Continuing Entity that such Beneficial Owners hold immediately following the consummation of the Business Reorganization or Asset Sale as a result of their ownership, prior to such consummation, of equity or voting securities of any company or other entity involved in or forming part of such Business Reorganization or Asset Sale other than the Company), (II) no Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or any Continuing Entity or any entity controlled by the Continuing Corporation or any Person that as of the Grant Date owns Beneficial Ownership of a Controlling Interest) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the value of the then outstanding equity securities of the Continuing Entity or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Continuing Entity except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Reorganization or Asset Sale and (III) at least a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or other governing body of the Continuing Entity were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such Business Reorganization or Asset Sale.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because 35% or more of the then outstanding Voting Securities is acquired by (1) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or more employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (2) any corporation which, immediately prior to such acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the shareholders of the Company in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the Company immediately prior to such acquisition.

3.      FORFEITURE . Except as set forth in Section 2 but notwithstanding any provision outside of Section 2 to the contrary herein, the Grantee shall immediately forfeit all of his rights and interest in the unvested portion of the Restricted Stock upon the termination of his employment with the Company for any reason before such unvested portion of the Restricted Stock becomes vested in accordance with Section 2 of this Agreement.

4.      RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the shares of Restricted Stock are not transferable unless and until they become vested in accordance with this Agreement, otherwise than by will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Grantee. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the first sentence of this Section, any attempt to effect a Transfer of any shares of Restricted Stock prior to the date on which the shares become vested shall be void ab initio . For purposes of this Agreement, “ Transfer ” shall mean any sale, transfer, encumbrance, gift, donation, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition, whether similar or dissimilar to those previously enumerated, whether voluntary or involuntary, and including, but not limited to, any disposition by operation of law, by court order, by judicial process, or by foreclosure, levy or attachment.
