Section 7.6. Tax Matters.

(a) Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns. The Sellers shall prepare and timely file or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed all Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries that are required to be filed (taking into account extensions) on or before the Closing Date, and the Sellers shall procure the payment of all Taxes due with such Tax Returns. Any Tax Returns required to be filed by the Sellers pursuant to the immediately prior sentence shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the last previous such Tax Returns. The Buyers shall prepare and timely file or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed all other Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries (excluding any Tax Returns required to be prepared by the Sellers pursuant to Section 7.6(f)). Tax Returns required to be filed by the Buyers for a period that ends on or before the Closing Date shall, insofar as they relate to the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date, be prepared on a basis consistent with the last previous such Tax Returns filed, unless the Buyers conclude that there is no reasonable basis for such position. Tax Returns required to be filed by the Buyers for a Straddle Period shall, insofar as they relate to the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date, be prepared on a basis consistent with the last previous such Tax Returns filed, unless the Buyers conclude that an alternative position is more likely than not the correct position. The Buyers shall (i) cause an election to be made to reduce U.S. Corp’s basis in the stock of the U.S. Diagnostic Entity described in Section 6.1 of the Disclosure Letter to its fair market value pursuant to Section 362(e)(2)(C) of the Code, and shall cause such an election to be filed with the relevant Tax Return for the year in which the Closing occurs, (ii) not elect to file consolidated returns for an affiliated group that includes U.S. Corp for the tax year ending on the Closing Date, and (iii) elect to not terminate the Dutch fiscal unity between the Company, Systagenix Wound Management Mid Co B.V. and Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. as a result of the merger of Systagenix Wound Management Mid Co B.V. with and into Systagenix Wound Management BV as described in Section 6.1 of the Disclosure Letter. In the case of any Tax Return required to be filed by the Buyers for the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to Taxes for which the Sellers are required to pay pursuant to this Agreement, the Buyers shall deliver to the Sellers, at least 15 Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Return (taking into account extensions) or if the information necessary to prepare such Tax Return is not available 15 Business Days before the due date, then promptly after such information becomes available, a statement setting forth and requesting payment for the amount of Tax for which the Sellers are responsible and a copy of such Tax Return. Any Taxes required to be paid by the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries that are required to be filed after the Closing Date shall be paid by the Sellers within 10 days of the due date for such Taxes, or no later than the date such Tax Return is filed if such Tax Return is filed earlier than the applicable due date and the Sellers had a reasonable period to review such Tax Return. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sellers’ obligation to pay their share of Taxes pursuant to this Section 7.6(a) is not subject to the limitations on indemnification set forth in Section 10.5(a) and (b). Solely in the case of any Tax Return which the Buyers are responsible for preparing under this Section 7.6(a) with respect to a Tax for which the Sellers have an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement, the Sellers shall have the right to review such Tax Return and statement prior to the filing of such Tax Return, and the Sellers and the Buyers agree to consult and resolve in good faith and as promptly as possible any issue arising as a result of the Sellers’ review of such Tax Return and statement. Neither party may file any amended Tax Returns for any Tax period for the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect

- 54 -

to which the other party is obligated to prepare or cause to be prepared the original such Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 7.6(a) without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Buyers may not make an election under Section 338(g) of the Code with respect to its purchase or deemed purchase of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries without the Sellers’ written consent. If the Sellers determine that any of the Company and their Subsidiaries is entitled to file or make a formal or informal claim for refund or file an amended Tax Return providing for a refund with respect to a period for which it is obligated to prepare or cause to be prepared the original such Tax Return pursuant to this Section 7.6(a) and with respect to Taxes for which the Sellers have agreed with the Buyers that Sellers have an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement, the Sellers shall be entitled to file or make such claim or amended Tax Return on behalf of such entity and will be entitled to control the prosecution of such refund claims; provided, that the Sellers shall not take any action that would result in any incremental increases in Tax liabilities or decreases in Tax assets and benefits of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their direct and indirect equityholders as reasonably determined by the Buyers other than with the written consent of the Buyers which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(b) Tax Sharing Agreements. On the Closing Date, all Tax sharing agreements and arrangements between (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand; and (ii) either of the Sellers or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), on the other hand, shall be terminated effective as of the close of business on the Closing Date and have no further effect for any taxable year or period (whether a past, present or future year or period), and no additional payments shall be made thereunder with respect to any taxable year or period after the Closing Date in respect of a redetermination of Tax liabilities or otherwise.

(c) Carryforwards, Carrybacks and Refunds. Unless otherwise required by law, neither of the Buyers nor any of their respective Affiliates shall cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to carry back to any Pre-Closing Tax Period any net operating loss or other Tax attribute that is attributable to a Post-Closing Tax Period (a “Post-Closing Tax Attribute”). Each of the Buyers, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, hereby waives any right to use or apply any net operating loss, charitable contribution credit or other item of the Company and its Subsidiaries for any tax year ending on any date following the Closing Date to any period of the Company and its Subsidiaries ending on or before the Closing Date. The Sellers shall be entitled to any Tax refunds, including interest, actually received from a Governmental Authority, in respect of Taxes paid or incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, solely with respect to which the Sellers have an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement and excluding any Tax refunds attributable to a Post-Closing Tax Attribute. The Buyers, as applicable, shall forward to the Sellers or reimburse the Sellers for any such Tax refunds actually received within five days of such receipt. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Buyers shall be entitled to retain any refund (i) with respect to Taxes with respect to any Post-Closing Tax Period relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries or (ii) attributable to a Post-Closing Tax Attribute.

- 55 -

(d) Cooperation. Each of the Buyers and the Sellers shall provide each other with such information and records and make such of its officers, directors, employees and agents available as may reasonably be requested by such other party in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return or any audit or other proceeding that relates to the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Buyers shall, within the earlier of one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Closing Date or sixty (60) days prior to the Tax Return filing due date, prepare or cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to prepare a customary tax work paper preparation package as listed on Section 7.6(d) of the Disclosure Letter and other items consistent with past practice that are reasonably requested in writing by the Sellers that are necessary to enable the Sellers and their direct and indirect equityholders to prepare Tax Returns the Sellers and their direct and indirect equityholders are obligated to prepare or cause to be prepared. The party requesting such cooperation will pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the other party.

(e) No Buyer Tax Act. Except as required by applicable law, neither of the Buyers shall, and each shall ensure that none of its Affiliates (including after the Closing the Company and its Subsidiaries), acting separately or in concert, (i) make or change any entity classification Tax election of the Company or its Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) make a section 338(g) election with respect to the purchase or deemed purchase of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) make an election, file an amended Tax Return, enter into any closing agreement, settle or compromise any Proceeding with respect to any Tax Claim or assessment relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, consent to any extension or waiver of the limitation period applicable to any Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each case that would result in any liability for Taxes to the Company or its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or increased Taxes of a Seller Indemnified Party, other than any such action expressly required or otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement or with the written consent of the Sellers which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned (a “Buyer Tax Act”). For the avoidance of doubt, no Pre-Closing Action requested pursuant to Section 7.14(a) and no action taken pursuant to Section 7.14(b) shall be a Buyer Tax Act.

(f) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration and other such Taxes (including all applicable real estate transfer Taxes, but excluding any Taxes based on or attributable to income or gains) and related fees (including any penalties, interest and additions to tax) (“Transfer Taxes”) arising out of or incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne equally by the Sellers on the one hand, and by the Buyers, jointly and severally, on the other hand. The party that is legally responsible to file a Tax Return related to Transfer Taxes shall at its expense be responsible for preparing and timely filing any such Tax Return. For the avoidance of doubt, any refund actually received by either party with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall be shared equally by the Sellers on the one hand, and by the Buyers, on the other hand. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Transfer Taxes arising directly out of or in connection with the Restructuring Transaction shall be borne entirely by the Sellers, and any refund actually received related to such Transfer Taxes shall be remitted to the Sellers as soon as reasonably practicable upon receipt thereof without offset. Each party shall use reasonable efforts to obtain any available exemption from, or recovery or refund with respect to any assessment of Transfer Taxes

- 56 -

and to cooperate with the other party in providing any information or documentation that may be reasonably necessary to obtain such exemption or recovery.

(g) Tax Claims.

(i) If a claim shall be made by any Taxing Authority (a “Tax Claim”) which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to the Buyers, the Buyers shall promptly notify the Sellers of such claim no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such Tax Claim is made; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Buyers in notifying the Sellers will relieve the Sellers from any indemnification obligation hereunder with respect to any Tax Claim, except to the extent that such delay actually and materially prejudices the Sellers.

(ii) With respect to any Tax Claim to the extent relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Sellers have agreed with the Buyers that they have an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement, the Sellers shall control all proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) and, without limiting the foregoing, may in their sole discretion pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any Taxing Authority with respect thereto, and may, in their sole discretion, either pay the Tax claimed and ▇▇▇ for a refund where applicable law permits such refund suits or contest the Tax Claim in any permissible manner; provided, however, that the Sellers will not take any action with respect to such Tax Claim that has an adverse impact on the Buyers; provided, further, that the Sellers must consult in good faith with the Buyers with respect to the settlement of such Tax Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers shall not settle such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of the Buyers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(iii) With respect to any Tax Claim relating to any Straddle Period, both the Sellers and the Buyers shall jointly control and participate in all proceedings taken in connection with such Tax Claim and shall each bear their own respective costs and expenses. Neither the Sellers nor the Buyers shall settle any such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(iv) Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.6(h)(ii) and (iii), the Buyers shall control all proceedings with respect to Taxes for any Post-Closing Tax Period and the Sellers shall have no right to participate in such proceedings.

(h) Survival and Payment of the Tax Indemnity Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary except with due regard to Section 7.6(k), the indemnity obligations with respect to Taxes pursuant to Article X shall survive until the close of business on the 30th day after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (taking into account applicable extensions) with respect to the underlying subject matter of such claim. The Sellers shall not indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Buyers or any of their Affiliates from any liability for Taxes (i) attributable to a Buyer Tax Act as defined in Section 7.6(e), a Pre-Closing Action requested under Section 7.14(a) or the elimination of Intercompany Indebtedness as provided in Section 7.6(j) (except to the extent such Taxes are included in the Seller Cap) or (ii) to the extent any net operating or capital loss carry forwards of the Company and its Subsidiaries that are

- 57 -

attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period reduce such liability for such Taxes; provided, however, that this clause (ii) shall not be applicable in the case of any consequences to a Pre-Closing Tax Period that result from a net operating or capital loss carry forward not being available; provided further, that if any net operating or capital loss carry forward is no longer available as a result of a Pre-Closing Action requested by the Buyers pursuant to Section 7.14(a) or the elimination of Intercompany Indebtedness as provided in Section 7.6(j) and if the liability of the Sellers would have been reduced pursuant to this clause (ii) except for the fact that such net operating loss or capital loss carryforward is not available as a result of such Pre-Closing Action or the elimination of Intercompany Indebtedness as provided in Section 7.6(j), such net operating or capital loss carry forward shall be treated as if it were available for purposes of calculating the reduction of liability for Taxes in this clause (ii). For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyers have no obligation to indemnify for any tax benefit relating to any net operating loss or loss carry forwards of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Buyers shall indemnify the Sellers for any liability for Taxes attributable to a Buyer Tax Act.

(i) Dutch Fiscal Unity. Sellers shall not file any Tax Return relating to Dutch fiscal unity for the period including December 23, 2011 without making the appropriate elections to transfer all Tax losses of the Dutch fiscal unity up to and including December 23, 2011 that can be allocated on a stand-alone basis to Systagenix Wound Management IP Co. B.V. The Sellers shall provide prompt written notice to the Buyers after filing the Tax Return with such elections, which Tax Return shall be filed as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than the Closing Date.

(j) Intercompany Indebtedness. The Sellers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Buyers as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and no later than August 31, 2013, or such date as otherwise agreed between the Sellers and the Buyers, a draft plan which sets forth, in reasonable detail, the steps, tax commentary for all relevant jurisdictions and timeline to eliminate all Intercompany Indebtedness outstanding as of the date hereof, with the exception of (i) Intercompany Indebtedness balances not exceeding $100,000.00, and (ii) any other Intercompany Indebtedness balances as mutually agreed between the Sellers and the Buyers (a “Qualifying Plan”). In calculating any Intercompany Indebtedness balance payable by one Person (the first Person) to another Person (the second Person) under this paragraph for purposes of the $100,000.00 threshold, the amount payable by the first Person to the second Person (x) shall include the total gross amounts payable by the first Person to the second Person, and (y) shall not be netted against any amount payable by the second Person to the first. In the case of (1) Intercompany Indebtedness payable by a debtor in one country to a creditor in another country (“Cross-Border Intercompany Indebtedness”), and (2) Intercompany Indebtedness to be eliminated for less than arm’s length consideration, the Qualifying Plan shall provide for the elimination of Intercompany Indebtedness that was outstanding as of the date hereof by a date that is no later than the Closing Date. Prior to the commencement of implementation of the Qualifying Plan, the Qualifying Plan shall be subject to the Buyers’ review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that Buyers’ approval is to be delivered within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Qualifying Plan and Buyers’ approval right shall include the right to approve the draft Qualifying Plan in whole or in part and to make necessary changes prior to commencement of the Qualifying Plan. Following the commencement of the Qualifying Plan, the Buyer may request

- 58 -

that certain Intercompany Indebtedness balances not be eliminated which request will not be unreasonably denied by Sellers. Following the approval and commencement of implementation of the Qualifying Plan and prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers and the Company shall keep the Buyers reasonably informed of progress on implementation of the Qualifying Plan and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete all steps under the Qualifying Plan scheduled to be completed prior to the Closing Date, prior to such date; provided, however, that (i) no such Intercompany Indebtedness must be eliminated prior to the Closing if it would impair or delay the consummation of the transactions described herein, or result in any adverse financial, tax or other consequence for the Sellers, their direct and indirect equityholders, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any amount in excess of $750,000 (the “Seller Cap”) which is not fully compensated for by the Buyers and (ii) the amount of any such costs, expenses and adverse consequences of the Company and its Subsidiaries that are included in the Seller Cap shall be Transaction Expenses to the extent unpaid as of the Closing. The Buyers shall be obligated to pay all out-of-pocket fees, expenses and costs of the Sellers and their direct and indirect equityholders, the Company and its Subsidiaries associated with the actions contemplated by this Section 7.6(j) (other than such amounts included in the Seller Cap), including: (i) any incremental increases in Tax liabilities or decreases in Tax assets and benefits of the Sellers and their direct and indirect equityholders as determined by Sellers in their sole discretion (such discretion to be exercised reasonably and in good faith), and (ii) any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of unrelated third-party financial, legal or other professional advisor fees incurred in connection with determining the financial, tax and other consequences associated with such actions. All such expenses incurred in connection with such actions remain payable by the Buyers even if such Intercompany Indebtedness is not eliminated or the Closing does not occur in each case (unless the Closing does not occur as a result of the failure of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1(a) and (b) to have been satisfied). Moreover, if the Closing does not occur (unless the Closing does not occur as a result of the failure of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1(a) and (b) to have been satisfied), the Buyers shall pay or reimburse the Sellers for all out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with restoring any such eliminated Intercompany Indebtedness. For the avoidance of doubt, any reduction in tax attributes of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be considered an adverse tax consequence that is included in the Seller Cap.

(k) The parties agree that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) the indemnification obligations of the Sellers under (A) Section 10.1(f) and, to extent the Taxes covered under Section 10.1(f) are also covered under Section 10.1(a), Section 10.1(a), and (B) Sections 10.1(b) and 10.1(c) to the extent relating to a breach of Section 7.6(a), shall terminate as of the date which is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (other than with respect to claims which are made prior thereto in accordance with this Agreement);

(ii) the Sellers shall have no right to receive any refunds with respect to Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Diagnostics Entities) described in Section 7.6(k)(i) which are payable to the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement beginning as of the date which is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date (other

- 59 -

than with respect to, and only to the extent of, any refunds (A) for which there is a reasonable basis and (B) as to which the Sellers notify the Buyers in writing prior thereto of the event or circumstance giving rise to the refund and, to the extent reasonably known, specify the amount of the refund);

(iii) for the avoidance of doubt, in order to assist the Dutch Diagnostics Entity to reclaim the Dutch VAT incurred in relation to the Restructuring Transaction, Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. will issue an invoice that fully complies with Dutch VAT invoicing requirements in relation to the transfer of the intangible property. Upon request by the Dutch Diagnostics Entity, Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. will provide full cooperation and documentation relevant in the Dutch Diagnostics Entity's reclaiming of the VAT on such invoice, including providing relevant background information regarding the carve-out, proof of remittance of the invoiced VAT by Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. to the Dutch tax authorities, and any other documentation that is necessary to enable the Dutch Diagnostics Entity to properly reclaim and receive the VAT invoiced by Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. to the Dutch Diagnostics Entity in relation to the transaction of the intangible property; and

(iv) if the Dutch tax authorities take the view that the transfer of the Diagnostics Business by Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. to the Dutch Diagnostics Entity qualified as a transfer of going concern as stipulated in Article 37d of the Dutch VAT Act, Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. will fully cooperate and assist with the credit invoicing procedure and will repay the invoiced Dutch VAT to the Dutch Diagnostics Entity upon having received a refund of such Dutch VAT from the Tax Authorities.

Section 7.7. Employee Matters.

(a) Each of the Buyers shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, recognize the service of each current or former employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (and any of their respective predecessors), as the case may be, as of the Closing as service with the Buyers and their respective Subsidiaries for all purposes under any applicable benefit plan of either of the Buyers or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which such current or former employee will be entitled to participate on and after the Closing Date (but not for purposes of benefit accrual under applicable defined benefit retirement plans), but only to the extent such prior service (i) is credited under the corresponding Company benefit arrangement immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) does not result in a duplication of benefits.

(b) With respect to any self-insured welfare benefit plans of either of the Buyers or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which such current or former employee would otherwise be eligible to participate on and after the Closing Date, the Buyers, as the case may be, shall cause, and with respect to all other welfare benefit plans in which such current or former employee would otherwise be eligible to participate on and after the Closing Date, such Person shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause, any pre-existing conditions, limitations, eligibility waiting periods or required physical examinations to be waived with respect to the current and former employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries and their eligible dependents to the extent waived under the corresponding Company benefit arrangement (for a comparable level of coverage) in which the applicable Person participated immediately prior to the Closing. If any of the Company

- 60 -

benefit arrangements that are medical, vision and/or dental benefit plans are terminated prior to the end of a plan year, current and former employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries and their dependents who are then participating in any such deductible-based Company benefit arrangement will be given credit for deductibles, co-payments and eligible out of pocket expenses incurred toward deductibles, co-payments and out of pocket maximums during the portion of the plan year preceding the termination date (or transfer date) in any comparable deductible-based medical, vision and/or dental benefit plan of the Buyers or any of their respective Subsidiaries for the corresponding benefit plan year.

(c) For a period beginning as of the Closing and ending on the one year anniversary of the date thereof, each of the Buyers shall or shall cause the Company or the appropriate Subsidiary of the Company to maintain in effect (i) for each Employee, annual base salary and annual cash target bonus opportunity that are not less favorable than the annual base salary and annual cash target bonus opportunity in effect for such Employee immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) for the Employees, in the aggregate, other employee benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than such other employee benefits (excluding defined benefit pension benefits, equity incentives and retiree welfare benefits) that were provided to such Employees under the Company Plans and Non-U.S. Plans disclosed on Sections 4.15(a) and 4.15(n) of the Disclosure Letter.

(d) Each of the Buyers shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, honor in accordance with their terms all Company Plans and Non-U.S. Plans, including any rights or benefits arising as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other event); provided, however, that the Buyers and their respective Subsidiaries may amend, modify or terminate any individual plan or arrangement in accordance with its terms and applicable Law.

(e) To the extent that (i) the applicable Law of any jurisdiction, or (ii) any collective bargaining agreement or other agreement with any labor organization, union, works council, or economic committee set forth in Section 4.14(b) of the Disclosure Letter would require the Buyers or any of their respective Subsidiaries to provide any more favorable terms of employment to any non-U.S. Employee than those otherwise provided for by this Section 7.7 (or modify the period of time for which such standards are met), then the Buyers will, or will cause one of such Person’s Subsidiaries to, provide such non-U.S. Employee with such more favorable terms, and otherwise provide terms of employment in accordance with this Section 7.7.

(f) The Company, and the Buyers shall each provide, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to provide, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause each of their respective representatives to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested by the other party in connection with all notifications and consultations and other processes necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated hereby with respect to any works council, economic committee, union or similar body as required to either (i) obtain an opinion or acknowledgment from any works council, economic committee, union or similar body or (ii) establish that the parties are permitted to effect the Closing without such opinion or acknowledgment. Such cooperation shall include the provision of any information required by applicable Law or the terms of any Contract as reasonably requested by the other party. The parties shall make available their representatives at such times

- 61 -

and in such places as the Company may reasonably request for purposes of discussions with representatives of any such works council, economic committee, union or similar body.

(g) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to the Buyers, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof (and in any event prior to the Closing Date), a waiver from each Person who is, with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) and has received or may receive a “parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), pursuant to which such Person waives any and all rights such Person may have as to any such payment if the shareholder approval referred to in Section 7.7(h) is not obtained prior to the Closing Date.

(h) With respect to each Person who has executed the waiver referred to in Section 7.7(g), the Company shall seek, prior to the Closing Date, the approval by such number of shareholders of the Company (or its parent entity, as applicable) as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code so as to render the parachute provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to any and all payments and/or benefits that, in the absence of waivers by the affected Persons under Section 7.7(g), might otherwise result, separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount and/or the provision of any benefit that would not be deductible by reasons of Section 280G of the Code, with such shareholder approval to be carried out in a manner intended to satisfy all applicable requirements of such Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of such Treasury Regulations thereto.

(i) The Company shall provide the Buyers, as soon as reasonably practicable prior to the execution of such waivers referenced in Section 7.7(g) and prior to seeking stockholder approval pursuant to Section 7.7(h), as applicable, drafts of the waivers and stockholder approval referenced in Sections 7.7(g) and (h) for review and reasonable comment by the Buyers, together with supporting calculations prepared by the Company or its advisors relating to potential parachute payments under Section 280G of the Code. The Company’s acceptance of such Buyers’ comments shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(j) No provision in this Section 7.7 shall (i) create any third-party beneficiary or other rights in any employee or former employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or any other Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns), (ii) constitute or create or be deemed to constitute or create an employment agreement or any right in any Employee or any other Person to any continued employment or service with or for the Company, the Buyers, or any of their respective Affiliates, or to any compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever, (iii) constitute or be deemed to constitute an amendment, modification, adoption, suspension or termination of any employee benefit plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement of the Company, the Buyers, or any of their respective Affiliates, or (iv) alter or limit the ability of the Company, the Buyers, or any of their respective Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them.

- 62 -

Section 7.8. Noncompetition.

(a) The Sellers acknowledge and agree that (i) the Wound Care Business is conducted and performed throughout the world; (ii) the Company and/or its Subsidiaries compete with other businesses that are or could be located in any jurisdiction in which the Wound Care Business operates; (iii) the Buyers have required that each of the Sellers and each Diagnostic Entity, make the covenants set forth in this Section 7.8 as a condition to the Buyers’ willingness to acquire the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement and (iv) the provisions of this Section 7.8 are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill of the Wound Care Business from and after the Closing.

(b) Accordingly, in consideration of the promises contained herein, the consideration to be received by the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement for the sale of the goodwill of the Wound Care Business, and in consideration of and as an inducement to the Buyers to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Sellers covenant and agree, that during the period from and after the Closing Date until the earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the Closing, within the European Union or otherwise, the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the date the Diagnostic Entities, any entity to which they transfer all or substantially all their assets, or any successor entity thereof is no longer controlled by, directly or indirectly, One Equity Partners III, L.P. or its Affiliates (the “Noncompete Period”), the Diagnostic Entities shall not, directly or indirectly:

(i) engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner connected with, lend its name or any similar name to, lend its credit to or render services or advice to, any business whose services or activities compete in whole or in part with the services or activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries or the Wound Care Business in any jurisdiction where the Wound Care Business operates as such services or activities are conducted prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the Diagnostic Entities may purchase or otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) two percent (2%) of any class of securities of any enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national securities exchange.

(i) whether for its own account or the account of any other Person, (A) solicit, or assist in soliciting, employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise, any Person who: (x) is an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the U.S. Buyer or its Subsidiaries or of the Diagnostic Entities or Sellers, as applicable or (y) within the six months prior to any solicitations, employment or engagement, was an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the U.S. Buyer or its Subsidiaries or of the Diagnostic Entities or the Sellers, as applicable; (B) in any manner induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the U.S. Buyer or its Subsidiaries or of the Diagnostic Entities or the Sellers, as applicable, to terminate such employment; or (C) interfere with the relationship of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the U.S. Buyer or its Subsidiaries or the Diagnostic Entities

- 63 -

or Sellers, as applicable, with any Person, including any Person who at any time during the Noncompete Period was an employee, contractor, supplier or customer of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the U.S. Buyer or its Subsidiaries; or

(ii) disparage the other parties hereto or any of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or agents.

(d) If any covenant of any Person in this Section 7.8 is held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, such covenant shall be considered to be divisible with respect to scope, time and geographic area, and such lesser scope, time or geographic area, or all of them, as a court of competent jurisdiction may determine to be reasonable, not arbitrary, and not against public policy, shall be effective, binding and enforceable against such Person.

(e) The period of time applicable to any covenant in this Section 7.8 shall be extended by the duration of any breach by any Person of such covenant. Each of the Sellers and the Buyers acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 7.8 are reasonable and necessary to protect the business and interests of the Company, its Subsidiaries, the Buyers, the Sellers and their respective Affiliates and that any breach of these covenants would cause substantial irreparable injury. Accordingly, each of the Sellers and the Buyers agrees that a remedy at law for any breach of the foregoing covenants would be inadequate and that the Sellers, the Company and each of the Buyers, in addition to any other remedies available, shall be entitled to obtain preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to secure specific performance of such covenants and to prevent a breach or contemplated breach of such covenants without the necessity of proving actual damage.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, (A) no provision in this Section 7.8 shall prevent (i) the Diagnostic Entities from selling or marketing the products and services of the Diagnostics Business to any Person whose services or activities compete in whole or in part with the services or activities of the Buyers, the Company and its Subsidiaries or the Wound Care Business or (ii) each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ from assisting with and consulting with the Diagnostic Entities in connection with the sale or transfer of the Diagnostics Business and (B) the provision of Section 7.8(b) shall not be applicable to One Equity Partners III, L.P. or its Affiliates (other than the Sellers and the Diagnostics Entities) or to any director of the Sellers, the Diagnostic Entities or their respective Affiliates.

Section 7.9. Additional Financial Information.

(a) At the request of the Buyers, the Seller shall reasonably cooperate with the Buyers in the Buyers’ preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements (comprised of the consolidated statements of financial position, comprehensive income and cash flows ) of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such quarter and the year-to-date period then ended (together with such statements for the prior year comparative period) for each fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2013 and prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Within 31 calendar days of the end of each month after the date hereof, the Sellers shall deliver to the Buyers the monthly financial results reporting package of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such month prepared on a basis consistent with past practice and which shall

- 64 -

include pro forma income statements and a schedule of working capital for the Diagnostics Business for such month (with all such reports collectively referred to herein as the “Subsequent Financial Statements”).

Section 7.10. No Solicitation. From the date hereof to the Closing Date, the Sellers shall not, the Sellers shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries not to, and the Sellers shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause their respective directors, officers, partners, agents, managers, employees or any other Persons acting on their behalf (each such Person, with respect to any other Person, a “Representative”) not to, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or facilitate any Acquisition Proposal, (b) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information for the purpose of knowingly encouraging or facilitating, any Acquisition Proposal, or (c) enter into any Contract relating to an Acquisition Proposal. The Sellers shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives to, cease immediately all discussions and negotiations regarding any proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal and shall, where entitled to do so, demand the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished in connection therewith.

Section 7.11. Notification of Certain Matters. The Buyers shall give prompt written notice to the Sellers, and the Sellers shall give prompt written notice to the Buyers, of (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which occurrence or failure to occur has caused, or is reasonably likely to cause, any representation or warranty of such party contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate, in each case at any time from and after the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, (b) any failure of the Buyers or the Sellers, as the case may be, to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement, (c) the receipt by such party (or, in the case of the Sellers, the Company or any of its Affiliates) of any written notice or other written communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (d) the receipt by such party (or, in the case of the Sellers, the Company or any of its Affiliates) of any written inquiry or investigation from any Governmental Authority that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the Sellers’ or the Company’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or (e) to the Knowledge of the Sellers, as applicable, a claim that arises against or affecting such party (or, in the case of the Sellers, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the Company's ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 7.12. Financing. From the date hereof to the Closing Date, the Sellers agree to provide to the Buyers, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, and request their respective Representatives, provide to the Buyers reasonable cooperation and information that is reasonably requested by the Buyers in connection with any financings being undertaken by Buyers or any financial reporting obligation arising in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

- 65 -

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Sellers and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to (i) provide the Buyers with all financial information regarding the Company reasonably obtainable by the Sellers, in such form as reasonably requested by the Buyers, in connection with the Buyers’ financing for the transaction contemplated hereby and any obligations under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and (ii) reasonably assist the Buyers with the preparation of any pro forma financial statements required by Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act. The Buyers agree to compensate the Sellers for all out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by the Sellers or if the Closing does not occur, by the Company or its Subsidiaries, in connection with this Section 7.12. The U.S. Buyer and Sellers recognize and agree that none of the Sellers, the Company or the Subsidiaries are making any representations or warranties with respect to any information or assistance supplied pursuant to this Section 7.12 and neither of the Buyers will assert any claim with respect to such information or assistance provided and the failure to comply with any request pursuant to this Section 7.12 shall not give rise to any claim or right to assert that any condition in this Agreement has not been satisfied.

Section 7.13. Third Party Consents. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the applicable consents and/or waivers from the third parties to the Contracts listed on Section 7.13 of the Disclosure Letter and, at the request of the Company, the Buyers shall reasonably cooperate with such efforts; provided, however that in no event shall the Company or Sellers be required to spend an amount in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate to obtain any such consents and/or waivers. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to obtain a consent or waiver in and of itself shall not give rise to any claim or right to assert that any condition in this Agreement has not been satisfied.

Section 7.14. Pre-Closing Action.

(a) The Sellers and the Company shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to cooperate with Buyers to, take such actions prior to the Closing Date (each, a “Pre-Closing Action”) in the manner the Buyers may reasonably request for tax or other purposes, to be effective and completed on or prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that no such Pre-Closing Action would impair or delay the consummation of the transactions described herein, or result in any adverse financial, tax or other consequence for the Sellers, their direct and indirect equityholders, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for which they are not fully compensated for by the Buyers in each case, and, provided, further, that no such Pre-Closing Action may result in the treatment of the Company or any of its foreign Subsidiaries as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A Pre-Closing Action may include internal reorganizations, assets transfers, liquidations, contributions or consolidations of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the implementation of alternative transaction structures to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Buyers shall be obligated to pay all out-of-pocket fees, expenses and costs of the Sellers and their direct and indirect equityholders, the Company and its Subsidiaries as a result of such Pre-Closing Action which are disclosed to the Buyers as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Pre-Closing Action is requested, including (i) any incremental increases in Tax liabilities or decreases in Tax assets and benefits of the Sellers and their direct and indirect equityholders as determined by Sellers in their sole discretion (such discretion to be exercised reasonably and in good faith), and (ii) any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of unrelated third-party financial, legal

- 66 -

or other professional advisors incurred in connection with determining the financial, tax and other consequences of such Pre-Closing Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the use of any tax losses, tax loss carryforwards and similar tax attributes which exist in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including pursuant to a transaction which effectively converts pre-closing Dutch tax loss carryforwards into tax amortizable basis of Systagenix Wound Management IP Co B.V. (or the fiscal unity of which it is a member), or any similar transaction, shall not be a cost covered by the immediately preceding sentence. All such expenses incurred in connection with any Pre-Closing Action requested by the Buyers remain payable by the Buyers even if the Pre-Closing Action does not close, or the Closing does not occur.

(b) The Sellers may modify the steps for implementing the Restructuring Transaction; provided, however, (i) the Diagnostics Business will be excluded from the U.S. Corp and the Company and their Subsidiaries, (ii) any such changes in the Restructuring Transaction do not impair or delay the consummation of the transactions described herein, or result in any adverse financial, tax or other consequence for the Buyers or their direct or indirect equityholders or Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries as of and after the Closing) for which they are not fully compensated for by the Sellers and (iii) that no such modification may result in the continued treatment of Systagenix Wound Management Mid Co B.V. as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless the Sellers consent to the Buyers’ making of a section 338(g) election under the Code with respect to such corporation; and (iv) that no such modification may result in the treatment of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (with the exception of U.S. Corp and Systagenix Wound Management Mid Co B.V.) as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless the Buyers provide prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Sellers shall be obligated to pay all out-of-pocket fees, expenses and costs of the Buyers or their direct or indirect equityholders or Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries as of and after the Closing) as a result of any such changes to the Restructuring Transaction which are disclosed to the Sellers as promptly as reasonably practicable after such modification is requested, including (i) any incremental increases in Tax liabilities or decreases in Tax assets and benefits of the Buyers or their direct or indirect equityholders or Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries as of and after the Closing) as determined by the Buyers in their sole discretion (such discretion to be exercised reasonably and in good faith), and (ii) any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of unrelated third-party financial, legal or other professional advisors incurred in connection with determining the financial, tax and other consequences of the Restructuring Transaction.

Section 7.15. Letters of Credit. The parties shall cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts prior to the Closing so that the letters of credit and other performance bonds set forth on Section 7.15 of the Disclosure Letter shall, at Closing, be replaced and, to the extent identified on Section 7.15 of the Disclosure Letter, Sellers and any Affiliate of Sellers will be released from any and all obligations with respect to such letters of credit or performance bonds. The failure to replace any such letters of credit and performance bonds or effect any such release shall not give rise, in and of itself, to any claim or right to assert that any condition in this Agreement has not been satisfied.

- 67 -

Section 7.16. Receivables. Any payments received with respect to the Healthpoint Point Agreement and the accounts receivable from Affiliates of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Inc. in Mexico (current balance of $157,000 as of the date hereof), Egypt (current balance of $17,101.83 as of the date hereof), South Africa (current balance of $100,452.74) and Hungary (current balance of $23,250 as of the date hereof) shall be promptly and in any event within 5 Business Days remitted to Sellers or any entity designated by Sellers to receive such remittance, in each case, net of any Taxes paid or payable by the Company of its Subsidiaries in respect thereof. To the extent permitted, the Buyers, Sellers and the Company hereby assign all right, title and interest in and to any receivable required to be remitted to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 7.16. The Sellers have the right to take any action, acting on their own behalf, to collect any such receivable.

Section 7.17. Receipts. The Sellers and the Buyers agree that, after the Closing Date, they shall hold and shall promptly transfer and deliver to the other relevant parties, from time to time as and when received by them, any refunds or other receipts or property that they may receive after the date hereof which property belongs to the other relevant parties, including any payments of accounts receivable and insurance proceeds, and shall account to the other relevant parties for all such refunds, receipts or property. This Section 7.17 shall not apply to Taxes which are the subject of Section 7.6.

The Sellers shall cause all the currency or other hedging, swap or other derivative agreements or transactions listed on Section 1.1(b) of the Disclosure Letter to be terminated and unwound prior to Closing with no liability or outstanding payments due by the Company or its Subsidiaries following the Closing.

- 73 -

the possession of the Indemnified Party, but failure to give such written notice or information shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder except and only to the extent that the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend the Third-Party Claim is actually materially prejudiced by such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Section 10.3, claims for indemnity with respect to Taxes are governed by Section 7.6, and, where applicable, Section 10.1, Section 10.2, Section 10.4, Section 10.5 and Section 10.7.

If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim in accordance with this Section 10.3(b), the Indemnified Party may continue to defend the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 10.3(b), the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party hereunder for any legal expenses incurred subsequent to such assumption by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except as provided for in Section 10.3(c).

(c) Participate in Defense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but not control) the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement at its own expense (except as provided in Section 10.3(b)); provided, however, that if a party assumes control of such defense and the other parties reasonably conclude, based on advice from counsel, that the Buyers and the Sellers have conflicting interests with respect to such Proceeding, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to such Buyer, or Seller, as applicable, solely in connection therewith shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, further, that in no event shall the Sellers or Buyers be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one (1) counsel (plus any applicable local counsel).

- 74 -

shall have not assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying party may have a liability under this Agreement.

(e) Cooperation. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third-Party Claim, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(f) Exclusive Remedy. Subject to this Section 10.3(f) and Section 11.6, the parties agree that, from and after the Closing Date, other than in connection with an intentional or willful breach of this Agreement or intentional fraud, the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the matters set forth in this Agreement are the indemnification obligations of the parties set forth in this Article X.

Section 10.4. Indemnification Procedures for Direct Claims. Upon the occurrence of any event or circumstance for which indemnification is believed to be due under this Agreement (other than Third-Party Claims), the Indemnified Party shall provide written notice of such event or circumstance (the “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party. Such Claim Notice shall state in general terms the circumstances giving rise to the claim and, to the extent known, specify the amount of the claim (or an estimate thereof) (the “Claim Amount”). Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, if one of the Sellers is the Indemnifying Party, the Sellers shall deliver to the Buyers a written response in which the Sellers shall (A) agree that such Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claim Amount (in which case such response shall be accompanied by instructions (in accordance with the Escrow Agreement) to the Escrow Agent to release funds from the General Escrow Account to the Buyer Indemnified Party in an amount equal to the Claim Amount (or if the General Escrow Account shall be less than the Claim Amount, the amount of the General Escrow Account), by check or by wire transfer), (B) agree that such Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all, of the Claim Amount (the “Agreed Amount”) (in which case such response shall be accompanied by instructions (in accordance with the Escrow Agreement) to the Escrow Agent to release funds from the General Escrow Account to the Buyer Indemnified Party in an amount equal to the Agreed Amount (or if the General Escrow Account shall be less than the Agreed Amount, the amount of the General Escrow Account), by check or by wire transfer) or (C) contest that such Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claim Amount. Any such notice that contests the Claim Notice shall describe in general terms the basis for such objection and, to the extent known, the amount of the claim (or an estimate thereof) that the Indemnifying Party does not believe should be subject to indemnification. Upon receipt of any such dispute notice, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall endeavor in good faith to arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution within thirty (30) days of receipt of such dispute notice. If a resolution is not reached within such thirty (30)-day period, then either party may commence litigation. If it is finally determined (through either agreement of the parties or otherwise) that all or a portion of the Claim Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall, within ten (10) days of

- 75 -

such determination, pay (and/or direct the Escrow Agent to pay to the extent funds are available therefore) the Indemnified Party the applicable amount.

Section 10.5. Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The Sellers shall not be liable for indemnification for Damages for breaches of representations or warranties under Section 10.1(a) and the Buyers shall not be liable for indemnification for Damages for breaches of representations or warranties under Section 10.2(a) until the cumulative aggregate amount of such Damages exceeds five million dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Indemnity Deductible”), at which time the Sellers will be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Buyers will be obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, from and against all such Damages in excess of the Deductible; provided, however, that the Indemnity Deductible shall not apply to Damages arising in respect of claims for breaches of Fundamental Representations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnity Deductible shall not apply to Damages arising in respect of claims with respect to the Sellers’ obligation to pay their share of Taxes pursuant to Section 7.6(a), the Sellers’ liability for Pre-Closing Taxes or any other indemnity claim relating to Taxes.

(b) The maximum aggregate obligation of the Sellers hereunder for Damages for breaches of representations or warranties under Section 10.1(a) or of the Buyers hereunder for Damages for breaches of representations or warranties under Section 10.2(a) shall not exceed the General Escrow Amount (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the limitations in this paragraph shall not apply to Damages arising in respect of claims for breaches of the Fundamental Representations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Cap shall not apply to Damages arising in respect of claims with respect to the Sellers’ obligation to pay their share of Taxes pursuant to Section 7.6(a), the Seller’s liability for Pre-Closing Taxes or any other indemnity claim relating to Taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum aggregate liability of the Sellers, on the one hand, and the Buyers, on the other hand, for Damages shall not exceed the Purchase Price actually paid by the Buyers.

(c) For purposes of this Article 10, a breach of a representation or warranty, including any Fundamental Representation, shall be deemed to exist either if such representation or warranty is actually breached or would have been breached if such representation or warranty had not contained any limitation or qualification as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect,” “material adverse effect” (which instead shall be read as any adverse effect or change, except in the case of the reference to “Material Adverse Effect” in Section 4.6(a) which shall continue to be read as “Material Adverse Effect”) or similar qualifier and the amount of Damages in respect of any breach of representation or warranty, including any deemed breach pursuant to this clause, shall be determined without regard to any such limitation or qualification as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect,” “material adverse effect” (which instead shall be read as any adverse effect or change, except in the case of the reference to “Material Adverse Effect” in Section 4.6(a) which shall continue to be read as “Material Adverse Effect”) or similar qualifier set forth in such representation or warranty except with respect to requirements to list material items on the Disclosure Letter.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Seller Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Party will be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent taken into account in the final determination of Net Working Capital or the provisions of Article II, or to the extent already indemnified or reimbursed for pursuant to Section 7.6 or Article X.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the right of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, to indemnification is further limited as follows:

(i) The Buyer Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1 will be reduced by all insurance or other third party indemnification, contribution or other similar proceeds actually received by the Buyers (net of any increase in insurance premiums, retroactive premiums, premium adjustments or costs of collection) pursuant to policies held by, or Contracts of, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as of the Closing. The U.S. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to claim and recover any Damages suffered by the Buyers under any such insurance policies or other third party indemnification, contribution or other similar agreement. The Buyers shall promptly remit to the Sellers for the benefit of the Sellers the net amount of any such insurance or other third party indemnification, contribution or other similar proceeds which are paid to the Buyers or their Affiliates with respect to Damages for which the U.S. Buyer and its Subsidiaries have been previously compensated pursuant to Section 10.1;

(ii) If, at the time of the indemnity payment, the Dutch Buyer is and remains exclusively subject to Dutch corporate income tax (vennootschapsbelasting) and at the time of the indemnity payment, the US Buyer is and remains exclusively subject to U.S. federal income tax, the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1 will be increased to take into account of any net Tax cost actually realized by the Buyers or their respective Affiliates as a result of the receipt of indemnity payments hereunder (grossed-up for such increase);

(iii) The Buyer Indemnified Parties’ or Seller Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1 will be offset by the net amount of the Tax benefits actually realized by such Parties or their respective Affiliates with respect to such Damages (determined on a with and without basis). To the extent Pre-Closing Taxes are required to be offset by any Post-Closing Tax Attribute, the Post-Closing Tax Attribute will be ignored for the purposes of calculating the indemnification obligation with respect to Pre-Closing Taxes; and

(iv) Each of the Sellers and the Buyers shall take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Damages upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that has given rise to an indemnification claim hereunder. This Section 10.5(e)(iv) shall not apply with respect to any claims for indemnity with respect to Taxes.

Section 10.6. Damage Waiver. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT,

- 77 -

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES, AND THE RECOVERY BY A PARTY OR INDEMNITEE OF ANY DAMAGES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY IT AS A RESULT OF ANY BREACH OR NONFULFILLMENT BY A PARTY OF ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, COVENANTS, AGREEMENTS OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF FRAUD, INTENTIONAL MISREPRESENTATION OR INTENTIONAL BREACH OR EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARE PAYABLE TO OR INCLUDED IN ANY ACTION BY A THIRD PARTY AGAINST AN INDEMNITEE FOR WHICH SUCH INDEMNITEE IS ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, NOT INCLUDE OR APPLY TO, NOR SHALL ANY PARTY OR INDEMNITEE BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER, ANY SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY A PARTY OR INDEMNITEE UNLESS SUCH DAMAGES (A) ARE REASONABLY FORESEEABLE AND (B) DO NOT RESULT FROM OR RELATE TO THE LOSS OF SYNERGIES OR SIMILAR BENEFIT FROM THE COMBINATION OF THE WOUND CARE BUSINESS WITH THE BUSINESS OF U.S. BUYER OR ITS AFFILIATES.

Section 10.7. Adjustment to Purchase Price. The parties agree to treat any indemnity payments made pursuant to this Article X as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes unless they are required to treat such payments otherwise by applicable Tax laws.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, claims alleging the existence of a breach of any representations and warranties which have been asserted and which are the subject of a written notice contemplated by Section 10.3(a) or Section 10.4, as the case may be, from an Indemnified Party to an Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration of the survival period applicable to such representation or warranty as provided in Section 11.1(a), shall survive the termination of the applicable survival period until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved.

Section 11.2. Expenses. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, the parties shall bear their own respective expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, financial advisors, consultants, actuaries and independent accountants) incurred in connection with the

- 78 -

preparation and execution of this Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.3. Assignment. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, but is not assignable by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 11.3 shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) each Party may assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without such consent (A) to an Affiliate, provided that such assigning party shall remain primarily liable for its obligation hereunder or (B) in connection with the sale, merger or other transaction involving a transfer of substantially all of its assets and (ii) Seller may assign its rights and obligations under Sections 7.1(b), 7.5(b), 7.6(a), (c), (d), (f), (g), (h), 7.16, 7.17 and Article XI in connection with a sale of a Seller, a Diagnostic Entity or a sale of substantially all of the assets of Sellers or the Diagnostic Entities.

Except as otherwise contemplated herein, this Agreement, the Disclosure Letter and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof (other than the Confidentiality Agreement), is not intended to, and shall not, confer any rights, claims, actions or remedies upon any Person other than the Company, the Sellers, the Buyers. The parties hereto acknowledge that each party participated in the drafting of this Agreement and agree that any rule of law or any legal decision that may or would require interpretation of any alleged ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement (including the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions hereof) and the terms of any other documents delivered or required to be delivered in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall supersede such conflicting or inconsistent terms (including by way of illustration and not limitation, an instance where a warranty in a deed of transfer imposes, implicitly or explicitly, greater obligations on the grantor than are imposed by the terms of this Agreement) in such other documents and the terms of this Agreement shall define the rights and obligations of the parties and their respective officers, directors, employees, interestholders, stockholders and Affiliates with respect to the subject matter of such conflict or inconsistency.

Section 11.5. Disclosure Letter. The inclusion of any matter in any section of the Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be included with respect to any other section of the Disclosure Letter to the extent the relevance of such matter to such section is readily apparent on its face notwithstanding the omission of an appropriate cross-reference to such other section or the omission of a reference in the particular representation and warranty to such section of the Disclosure Letter, but inclusion thereon shall expressly not be deemed to constitute an admission or otherwise imply that any such matter is material, has a Material Adverse Effect or creates a measure for, or further defines the meaning of, materiality or Material Adverse Effect and their correlative terms for the purposes of this Agreement. Certain matters disclosed in the Disclosure Letter may not be required

- 79 -

to be disclosed pursuant to the terms of the representations and warranties in this Agreement. Such matters are disclosed for informational purposes only. No disclosure on any section of the Disclosure Letter relating to a possible breach or violation of any contract or law shall be construed as an admission or indication that a breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. The Disclosure Letter and the information and statements contained therein are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations or warranties of the Sellers, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries except as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

Section 11.6. Remedies. Prior to the Closing, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Prior to the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. In the event that the conditions set forth in Section 8.1(a) and/or (g) cannot be satisfied at the Closing or are not waived by Buyers, Buyers shall not be entitled to make any claim for Damages prior to termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2 except in the event of intentional breach or intentional fraud.

Section 11.7. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed in two or more original or facsimile counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall be considered one and the same instrument.

Section 11.8. Section Headings. The section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.9. Notices.

Section 11.10. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

- 81 -

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. The parties expressly waive any right they may have, now or in the future, to demand or seek the application of a governing law other than the law of the State of New York.

(b) ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST THE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, COUNTY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY (I) ACCEPT GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF THESE COURTS; (II) WAIVE ANY OBJECTIONS WHICH SUCH PARTY MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (I) ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM; (III) AGREE THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO SUCH PARTY AT THEIR RESPECTIVE ADDRESSES PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 11.9; AND (IV) AGREE THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (III) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT. THE PARTIES UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH JUDICIAL PROCEEDING OR OTHER ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 11.11. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision will be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.
