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:

(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.

(c)    No Restrictions on Certain Transactions.

The Grantee shall consult with his own personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters, the making of a Section 83(b) election, and the Grantee’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations.

8.    NO EFFECT ON EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee the right to continue in the employment of the Company or affect any right which the Company may have to terminate the employment of the Grantee regardless of the effect of such termination of employment on the rights of the Grantee under or this Agreement.

In such an event, the claw back will be in an amount of up to the total economic gain from any stock-based grants within the five-year period preceding the restatement. By accepting the Restricted Stock, the Grantee agrees to be bound to any existing or future Clawback Policy adopted by the Company, or any amendments that may from time to time be made to the Clawback Policy in the future by the Company, as required to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements, and is further agreeing that all of the Grantee’s equity awards may be unilaterally amended by the Company, without the Grantee’s consent, to the extent that the Company in its discretion determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Clawback Policy to the extent required to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements.

(b)    If the Grantee, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise violates the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Conduct and Ethics, Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officer or any other corporate governance materials specified by the SEC or exchange on which common stock of the Company is listed, then, if such violation is material and injurious to the Company, or was the result of actions with bad intent: (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of the Restricted Stock may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Grantee or other person to whom any payment has been made or shares or other property have been transferred in connection with the Restricted Stock to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the gain (whether or not taxable) realized upon the sale of any Restricted Stock.
