ARTICLE II
SALE AND PURCHASE

2.1           Assets and Liabilities.

(a)            In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, at the Closing, Seller shall sell, convey, grant, assign, transfer, and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire from Seller, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances), all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in and to those Assets set forth on Annex B (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”).

(b)            Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall only purchase and acquire the Purchased Assets, and Buyer shall not purchase or acquire, and shall not be deemed to acquire, any other Assets of Seller, including but not limited to those Assets set forth on Annex C and any Assets used or held for use exclusively in the Retained Business (all such other Assets of Seller not included in the definition of “Purchased Assets”, collectively, the “Excluded Assets”).

(c)            Buyer will not assume any Liabilities of Seller or its Affiliates, other than Seller’s executory performance obligations under those Seller Contracts listed on Annex D that are assigned to Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (collectively, the “Assumed Contracts”) and, in each case, to the extent, and only to the extent, any such executory performance obligation with respect to any such Assumed Contract relates solely to periods after the Closing and is to be performed in the Ordinary Course, and specifically excluding all Liabilities with respect to any such Assumed Contract related to any (i) failure to perform, improper performance, breach, default, or violation under any such Assumed Contract that occurred prior to or in connection with the Closing, (ii) breach of warranty, product liability, product recall, product warning, tort, infringement, or violation of Legal Requirement that occurred prior to or in connection with the Closing, (iii) Proceeding that is based on facts or circumstances existing prior to or at the Closing, or (iv) inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or obligation of Seller in the Transaction Documents, or as would otherwise be contrary to any express indemnification obligation of Seller in this Agreement (collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”).

(d)            Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, except for the Assumed Liabilities, Buyer shall not assume or be responsible to pay, perform, or discharge any Liabilities of Seller (including all Liabilities and Proceedings (i) as a result or, in connection with, or related to any product liability, recalls, product warnings, warranty claims arising from sales of the Seller Products, distributor disputes, Seller’s failure to comply with Legal Requirements, tort, or infringement, in each case, related to or in connection with any of the businesses (including the SimpliDerm Business), operations, assets, or Liabilities of Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates conducted, existing, or arising at or prior to the Closing, (ii) arising out of Seller’s ownership of the Purchased Assets or Seller’s operation of the SimpliDerm Business at or prior to the Closing, (iii) that are Taxes of Seller or Taxes imposed with respect to the SimpliDerm Business or the Purchased Assets for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (iv) relating to any of Seller’s employee Liabilities (including all Benefit Plans), or (v) otherwise based on facts or circumstances existing prior to or at the Closing, any breach of any Assumed Contracts prior to or at the Closing, and all Liabilities arising under any terminated Contracts or any other Contract of Seller that is not an Assumed Contract) (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”). Seller and Seller’s Affiliates shall remain solely responsible for all of the Excluded Liabilities and will timely pay, perform, and discharge, as applicable, all obligations under the Excluded Liabilities. For the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded Liabilities shall include (A) any product liability, mass tort, class action, failure-to-warn, recall, adverse event, regulatory action, or similar claim arising from products manufactured, processed, distributed, marketed, promoted, or sold prior to the Closing, regardless of when such claim is asserted or (B) any Taxes that would have been revealed by or otherwise reflected on any applicable Tax Clearance Certificate.

2.2           Purchase Price.

(a)            The aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price”) is a dollar amount equal to (i) the Base Price, minus (ii) the amount of any Inventory Shortfall, plus (iii) the amount of all Earnout Payments earned and payable pursuant to Section 2.7, plus (iv) the Transition Milestone Payment to the extent payable pursuant to Section 2.6, plus (iv) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, in each case, as applicable, as adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 2.6, Section 2.7, and ARTICLE VIII.

(b)            At the Closing, Buyer shall pay to Seller the Estimated Closing Cash Consideration by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Purchase Price Bank Account.

(c)            The Parties agree that the Transactions constitute an “applicable asset acquisition” within the meaning of Section 1060 of the Code. Accordingly, the Parties agree to report the Transactions on IRS Form 8594, and for any other required purposes, in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule as finally determined. Within thirty (30) days after the finalization of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount in accordance with Section 2.5, Buyer shall provide Seller with an allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”), which allocates the Purchase Price (and any other item of consideration for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) among the Purchased Assets in accordance with and as provided by Section 1060 of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations (and any similar provision of state or local Legal Requirements, as applicable) and consistent with the allocation methodologies set forth on Annex E. Upon delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Seller, the Allocation Schedule will be final, binding, and conclusive on the Parties; provided that Buyer shall consider in good faith any written comments delivered by Seller within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Allocation Schedule. No Party shall take a position on any Tax Return or other Tax Filing or in any Proceeding before any Tax Authority with regard to the determination or collection of any Tax that is in any manner inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule, as finally determined or otherwise adjusted in accordance with this Section 2.2(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the Parties agree to notify each other in writing with respect to the initiation of any Proceeding by any Tax Authority directly relating to the Allocation Schedule (for avoidance of doubt, excluding any such Proceeding that involves such Party but only indirectly relates to the Allocation Schedule) and agree to consult and use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other with respect to any such Proceeding.

2.3            Closing. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Parties shall consummate the Transactions (the “Closing”) no later than three Business Days after the last of the conditions to the Closing set forth in ARTICLE VII has been satisfied or waived (other than conditions that by their nature must be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), and the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, conduct the Closing remotely through the exchange of Transaction Documents and signatures thereto by electronic mail, or other means of electronic transmission (including pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com or www.simplyagree.com), or by such other method, at such other time, on such other date, or at such other place as the Parties mutually agree upon in writing, effective as of 11:59:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) (the “Effective Time”) on the Closing Date. All Transactions that will occur on and as of the Closing Date will be deemed to have occurred simultaneously as of the Effective Time.

2.4            Closing Obligations. In addition to any other documents to be delivered under, or actions to be taken pursuant to, other provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing:

(a)            Seller shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Buyer the following (collectively, the “Seller Closing Documents”):

(ii)           with respect to the Seller IP Rights included in the Purchased Assets, an assignment of intellectual property, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “IP Assignment Agreement”), duly executed by Seller;

(iii)          a transition services agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “TSA”), duly executed by Seller;

(v)           a properly completed IRS Form W-9, duly executed by Seller;

(vi)          evidence, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, that any Encumbrances on the Purchased Assets (other than Permitted Encumbrances) have been released;

(vii)         evidence, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, that those notices required to be given and Filings required to be made by Seller in connection with the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents and the consummation and performance of the Transactions have been duly given to or made with the appropriate Persons;

(viii)        a certificate of good standing for Seller issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and certificates of existence, compliance, and good standing (or the equivalent) for Seller issued by each other jurisdiction in which Seller currently operates the SimpliDerm Business and in which Seller is qualified to do business, all issued by the Secretary of State (or other applicable Governmental Authority) of such jurisdiction, and all dated no more than 10 Business Days prior to the Closing Date;

(ix)           all requisite resolutions or actions of the board of directors of Seller approving the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents and the consummation and performance of the Transactions; and

(x)            a certificate of a duly authorized officer of Seller certifying that all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b), Section 7.2(c), and Section 7.2(i) have been satisfied, duly executed by such officer.

2.5           Inventory Adjustment.

(a)            Seller and Buyer shall complete a joint physical inventory count no later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall then prepare and deliver to Buyer prior to the Closing, a statement (the “Estimated Inventory Statement”) setting forth Seller’s good faith estimates of (i) Inventory Value as of the Effective Time, taking into account such joint physical inventory count (the “Estimated Inventory Value”) together with a list of the Acquired Inventory as of the Effective Time, and (ii) calculation of the Estimated Inventory Shortfall, if any, based on such Estimated Inventory Value. Seller shall arrange with common carrier for the physical delivery all of the Acquired Inventory to Buyer’s designated warehouse no later than two Business Days after the Closing Date. Within ten Business Days following the Closing, Buyer shall cause to be conducted a physical count of the Acquired Inventory to determine the Inventory Value (the “Inventory Count”). Seller shall be entitled to observe the Inventory Count in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the businesses and operations of Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates. The result of the Inventory Count, as adjusted for activity occurring between the Effective Time and the date of the Inventory Count, shall be used in order to determine the Closing Inventory Value as of the Closing Date. For purposes of the Estimated Inventory Value and the Closing Inventory Value, the value of all Unusable Acquired Inventory shall be excluded. Buyer shall also have the right to review and validate any documentation provided by Buyer pursuant to Section 7.2(f) before determining the commercial usability of such Acquired Inventory for purposes of calculating the Closing Inventory Value.

(b)            Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Closing Inventory Statement”) setting forth (A) its calculation of the actual Inventory Value as of the Effective Time (the “Closing Inventory Value”) together with a list of Acquired Inventory as of the Effective Time, which shall be based, in part, on the Inventory Count, and (B) its calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount based thereon; provided that, if the Closing Inventory Value, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.5, is greater than the Target Inventory Value, then the Closing Inventory Value shall be deemed to equal the Target Inventory Value.

(c)            The post-Closing adjustment shall be an amount equal to the Closing Inventory Value, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.5 (including the proviso set forth in Section 2.5(b)), minus the Estimated Inventory Value (the “Post-Closing Adjustment Amount”). Promptly, and in any event no later than the second (2^nd) Business Day following the determination and final resolution thereof in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.5:

(i)             if the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to Seller an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Purchase Price Bank Account (or such other bank account in the United States designated by Seller in a written notice to Buyer);

(ii)            if the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is a negative number, then Seller shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer an amount equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Buyer to Seller in writing; and

(iii)           if the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is equal to $0.00, then neither Buyer, on the one hand, nor Seller, on the other hand, shall be obliged to make any payment to the other pursuant to this Section 2.5(c).

(d)            In the event that Seller does not agree with the Closing Inventory Value set forth in the Closing Inventory Statement, Seller shall be entitled, no later than 60 calendar days of the delivery of the Closing Inventory Statement (the “Inventory Dispute Period”), to give Buyer written notice (a “Inventory Dispute Notice”) of such disagreement, which disagreement must be based solely on Buyer’s mathematical error, failure to calculate Inventory Value in accordance with this Agreement or Buyer not having followed the terms of this Agreement. The Inventory Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the specific items of Inventory with which the Seller does not agree and the basis for such objection (the “Disputed Inventory Items”). Any Inventory items not specifically identified as disputed in an Inventory Dispute Notice that is timely delivered shall be deemed accepted by Seller and final and agreed for all purposes of this Agreement, absent Fraud or intentional misconduct. In the event that Seller (A) does not deliver an Inventory Dispute Notice during the Inventory Dispute Period or (B) confirms in writing that they accept the Closing Inventory Statement delivered by the Buyer, the Closing Inventory Value set forth on such Closing Inventory Statement shall be deemed accepted by the Seller and to be final and agreed for all purposes of this Agreement, absent Fraud or intentional misconduct, and the Purchase Price will be finally determined at such time. In the event that Seller delivers an Inventory Dispute Notice within the Inventory Dispute Period, Seller and Buyer shall, for a period of not less than 30 days (the “Negotiation Period”) after delivery of the Inventory Dispute Notice, attempt in good faith to mutually determine the Inventory Value of the Disputed Inventory Items and mutually determine any resulting adjustments to the Closing Inventory Value. In the event that Buyer and Seller mutually determine in writing the Inventory Value of the Disputed Inventory Items and resulting Closing Inventory Value, then such adjusted Closing Inventory Value shall irrevocably be deemed to be final for all purposes of this Agreement, absent Fraud or intentional misconduct.

(e)            If Buyer and Seller fail to resolve all of the Disputed Inventory Items within the Negotiation Period, then either Buyer or Seller will be entitled to submit the Disputed Inventory Items remaining in dispute (and only such Disputed Inventory Items, as all other matters with respect to, and all other components of, the Closing Inventory Statement (including those Disputed Inventory Items resolved by Buyer and Seller during the Negotiation Period) will be deemed final, binding, and conclusive on the Parties for all purposes under this Agreement and not subject to further dispute or challenge) to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement. If Disputed Inventory Items are submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, then (i) Buyer and Seller shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Independent Accounting Firm such work papers and other documents and information relating to such Disputed Inventory Items as the Independent Accounting Firm requests and as are reasonably available to such Party or such Party’s Representatives, and Buyer and Seller will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accounting Firm any material relating to such Disputed Inventory Items, (ii) Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm not to revise any element of the Closing Inventory Statement that is not such a Disputed Inventory Item or assign a value to any element of such a Disputed Inventory Items greater than the largest value for such item claimed by either Buyer or Seller less than the smallest value for such item claimed by Buyer or Seller, (iii) Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to deliver the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination in a written notice to Buyer and Seller within 60 days of the submission to the Independent Accounting Firm of such Disputed Inventory Items, and such determination (to the extent compliant with the instructions required by Section 2.5(e)(ii) and absent manifest error) will be deemed final, binding, and conclusive on the Parties for all purposes under this Agreement and not subject to further dispute or challenge and will be used in the determination of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and all components thereof, (iv) neither Buyer nor Seller shall participate in any ex-parte communications regarding the Disputed Inventory Items with the Independent Accounting Firm without the other Party; and (v) the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be allocated and payable by Buyer and Seller in proportion to the amounts by which the proposals of Buyer and Seller respectively, differed from the Independent Accounting Firm’s final determination of such Disputed Inventory Items, and Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to determine such proportions in the Independent Accounting Firm’s final determination pursuant to this Section 2.5(d). For example, if Seller submits an Inventory Dispute Notice for $1,000, and if Buyer contests only $500 of the amount so claimed by Seller, and if the Independent Accounting Firm ultimately resolves such dispute by awarding Seller $300 of the $500 contested amount, then the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be allocated 60% (i.e., $300/$500) to Buyer and 40% (i.e., $200/$500) to Seller. The Parties are entitled to enter and reduce to judgment any award given by the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with this Section 2.5(d) in a court of competent jurisdiction if payment is not timely made in accordance with Section 2.5(c).

(f)             The final determination of the Closing Inventory Value in accordance with this Section 2.5 shall, in the absence of Fraud or intentional misconduct, be conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement, and shall be binding on Buyer and Seller and the Independent Accounting Firm.

(g)            The Parties shall treat each payment made under this Section 2.5, Section 2.6, and Section 2.7 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes, unless a final “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code) by a Tax Authority with respect to any such payment causes such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes.

2.6            Transition Milestone Payment.

(a)            Buyer shall pay to Seller the Transition Milestone Payment (as adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) as follows: (i) no later than five Business Days after completion of all of the transition milestones set forth on Annex F (the “Transition Milestones”) and the final determination of the amount of all Milestone Payment Reductions for the Guaranteed Months during which the Parties completed the Transition Milestones, a dollar amount equal to (A) the Transition Milestone Payment minus (B) the aggregate amount of Milestone Payment Reductions for each Guaranteed Month that it took to complete all of the Transition Milestones minus (C) the product of (x) 18 minus the number of Guaranteed Months that it took to complete each of the Transition Milestones multiplied by (y) [***]; and (ii) no later than five Business Days after the final determination of the amount of all Milestone Payment Reductions for the remaining Guaranteed Months, a dollar amount equal to (A) the remaining portion of the Transition Milestone Payment (which, for the avoidance of doubt, would equal the Transition Milestone Payment minus the aggregate amount of Milestone Payment Reductions for each Guaranteed Month that it took to complete all of the Transition Milestones minus the payment made pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(i)) minus (B) any Milestone Payment Reductions for the remaining Guaranteed Months; provided, however, that failure to achieve a Transition Milestone due to Buyer’s action or inaction shall not excuse Buyer from paying the Transition Milestone Payment. For example, if the Parties complete the Transition Milestones within the first seven Guaranteed Months following the Closing and there were Milestone Payment Reductions of (x) [***] during the first seven Guaranteed Months and (y) [***] during the final [***] Guaranteed Months, then Buyer shall pay to Seller (I) [***] ([***] minus [***] minus the product of [***] multiplied by [***] no later than five Business Days after completion of all of the Transition Milestones and the final determination of the amount of all Milestone Payment Reductions for such seven Guaranteed Months; and (II) the remaining [***] ([***] (i.e., the total Transition Milestone Payment) minus [***] (i.e., the aggregate amount of Milestone Payment Reductions for the first seven Guaranteed Months) minus [***] (i.e., the partial Transition Milestone Payment made with respect to the first seven Guaranteed Months pursuant to Section 2.6(a)(i)) minus [***] (i.e., the aggregate amount of Milestone Payment Reductions for the last [***] Guaranteed Months)) no later than five Business Days after the final determination of the amount of all Milestone Payment Reductions for the remaining eleven Guaranteed Months. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Transition Milestones no later than the date that is [***] months after the Closing Date (or such later date as mutually agreed in writing); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Transition Milestones shall not be considered completed (and none of the Transition Milestone Payment shall be due and payable) unless and until completion of all Transition Milestones. The Transition Milestones shall be deemed completed upon Buyer’s written confirmation (such confirmation not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) that each Transition Milestone has been completed in all material respects in accordance with this Agreement. If Buyer reasonably determines that a Transition Milestone has not been completed, Buyer shall provide Seller with a written notice describing in reasonable detail the deficiencies. Seller shall have a reasonable opportunity to cure such deficiencies, following which Buyer shall promptly reassess the applicable Transition Milestone. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer has not provided written confirmation that all Transition Milestones have been completed on or before the date that is [***] months after the Closing Date, both Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to determine whether any completed Transition Milestones should be eligible for a partial payment of the Transition Milestone Payment. Any such partial payment shall be paid (as adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) only for Transition Milestones completed in all material respects and accepted by Buyer (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and shall not constitute acceptance of any incomplete Transition Milestones or waive any rights or remedies of Buyer (under this Agreement or otherwise) with respect to any incomplete Transition Milestones.

(b)            The following defined terms shall have the meaning set forth below as used in this Section 2.6 and throughout this Agreement:

(c)            If Buyer experiences a Sales Shortfall in any Guaranteed Month, then the Transition Milestone Payment shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an aggregate amount equal to, with respect to each Guaranteed Month, the lesser of (i) the Profitability Shortfall for such Guaranteed Month and (ii) the Profitability Target (any such reduction in a given calendar month, a “Milestone Payment Reduction”). For example, if a Sales Shortfall has occurred in a given Guaranteed Month and the Sales Shortfall in such Guaranteed Month is [***], then the Profitability Shortfall shall be [***] ([***] x [***]) and the Transition Milestone Payment shall be reduced by (and the Milestone Payment Reduction for such month shall equal) [***], and if the Milestone Payment Reduction was equal to [***] in all 18 Guaranteed Months, then the total aggregate reduction to the Transition Milestone Payment would be equal to [***].

(d)            If, after the Closing, any Unusable Acquired Inventory constitutes Released Inventory, the Inventory Value of such Released Inventory shall first be applied as an offset against any Milestone Payment Reduction. To the extent the Inventory Value of such Released Inventory exceeds the Milestone Payment Reduction for such Guaranteed Month, Buyer shall either, at the Buyer’s option (i) pay Seller the excess amount within ten (10) Business Days following the month in which such Released Inventory was released or re-released or (ii) provide notice to Seller (within ten (10) Business Days following the month in which such Released Inventory was released or re-released) that Buyer is applying such excess amount to offset any prior Guaranteed Month’s Milestone Payment Reduction. Seller shall promptly provide the corresponding release documentation and all supporting information and documentation reasonably necessary for Buyer to review and validate the commercial usability of any Released Inventory.

(e)            If, after Closing, any Acquired Inventory that was included as a part of the Closing Inventory Value as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.5 subsequently cannot be commercially released or utilized because it does not satisfy the agreed Supplier release criteria or otherwise fails to meet the release standards agreed by the Parties at Closing or constitutes Unusable Acquired Inventory, then the Transition Milestone Payment shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the value of such Acquired Inventory.

(f)            As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after the end of each month of the Guaranteed Period, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement setting forth Buyer’s good faith calculation of the Milestone Payment Reduction for such month, together with reasonably supporting detail (such calculation, an “Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation”). The Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation shall be binding and conclusive upon the Parties upon the earlier to occur of: (i) Seller’s written notice to the Buyer of its acceptance of the Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation and (ii) 15 days following the Seller’s receipt of the Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation, unless Seller provides written notice of disagreement to the Buyer within such 15-day period (such period, the “Milestone Payment Reduction Objection Period”). During each Milestone Payment Reduction Objection Period, Buyer shall provide Seller with a reasonable opportunity, in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the businesses and operations of Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates, to review any books and records and work papers used in preparing such applicable Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation.

(g)            The dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 2.5(d) through Section 2.5(f) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the resolution of any dispute with respect to a Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation, with references therein to the “Closing Inventory Statement” being deemed references to the applicable Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation and with such other conforming changes as the context requires. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the dispute resolution mechanism contained in this Section 2.6(g) is the exclusive mechanism for resolving disputes regarding the Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation.

(a)            The following defined terms shall have the meaning set forth below as used in this Section 2.7 and throughout this Agreement:

(i)             “Earnout Payment” means an amount equal to [***].

(ii)            “Earnout Period” means, as applicable, each of the first five consecutive full calendar quarter periods immediately following the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, each Earnout Period shall end on the last day of the applicable fiscal quarter.

(iii)           “Earnout Target” means [***].

(iv)           “SimpliDerm Sales” means, with respect to each Earnout Period, actual revenue, determined in accordance with GAAP, that is derived from sales of the Seller Products (net of returns, rebates, chargebacks, customary trade and cash discounts, freight and shipping pass-throughs and excluding intercompany sales and extraordinary expenses) during such Earnout Period, in accordance with the example set forth on Schedule 2.7(a).

(b)            If the SimpliDerm Sales for a given Earnout Period exceed the Earnout Target, then Buyer shall pay to Seller the Earnout Payment for such Earnout Period; provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of all Earnout Payments exceed $1,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, if the aggregate amount paid by Buyer to Seller equals $1,000,000 in total, then Buyer shall have no further obligation to make any additional Earnout Payments.

(c)            As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 60 days after the end of each Earnout Period, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement setting forth Buyer’s good faith calculation of the SimpliDerm Sales for such Earnout Period, together with reasonably supporting detail and whether Seller is eligible for an Earnout Payment for such Earnout Period (such calculation, an “Earnout Payment Calculation”). The Earnout Payment Calculation shall be binding and conclusive upon the Parties upon the earlier to occur of: (i) Seller’s written notice to the Buyer of its acceptance of the Earnout Payment Calculation and (ii) 30 days following the Seller’s receipt of the Earnout Payment Calculation, unless Seller provides written notice of disagreement to the Buyer within such 30-day period (such period, the “Earnout Objection Period”). During the Earnout Objection Period, Buyer shall provide Seller with a reasonable opportunity, in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the businesses and operations of Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates, to review any books and records and work papers used in preparing such Earnout Payment Calculation. The aggregate amount of all Earnout Payments shall not exceed $1,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, if Buyer has paid Seller [***] for each of the first four Earnout Periods following the Closing, then there shall be no Earnout Payment for the fifth Earnout Period.

(d)            The dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 2.5(d) through Section 2.5(f) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the resolution of any dispute with respect to an Earnout Payment Calculation, with references therein to the “Closing Inventory Statement” being deemed references to the applicable Earnout Payment Calculation and with such other conforming changes as the context requires. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the dispute resolution mechanism contained in this Section 2.7(d) is the exclusive mechanism for resolving disputes regarding the Earnout Payment Calculations.

(e)            For purposes of preparing an Earnout Payment Calculation and a Milestone Payment Reduction Calculation, SimpliDerm Sales shall be determined in accordance with GAAP, as reasonably determined by Buyer. During each Earnout Period and the Guaranteed Period, Buyer (i) will keep Seller reasonably informed of any material developments outside the Ordinary Course of business relating to SimpliDerm Sales, (ii) will act in good faith with respect to Buyer’s operation of the SimpliDerm Business, and (iii) will not knowingly take any action or omit to take any action for the purpose of avoiding an Earnout Payment, increasing a Milestone Payment Reduction, or materially reducing SimpliDerm Sales. Except as expressly set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing contained in this Agreement requires, or will be construed to require, Buyer to maintain the SimpliDerm Business, any of the Purchased Assets, or any of the Assumed Liabilities separately (or with separate books and records) or otherwise restrict in any way management of Buyer from operating the SimpliDerm Business, the Purchased Assets, and the Assumed Liabilities in any respect and making all customer and other business decisions in the manner that Buyer deems appropriate in Buyer’s sole discretion and without taking into consideration the impact of such actions on any Earnout Payment or Milestone Payment Reduction. For avoidance of doubt, neither Buyer nor any of Buyer’s Affiliates (i) owes Seller any fiduciary or other duty in respect of this Section 2.7, or (ii) is making any representations or warranties to Seller with respect to the operations of the SimpliDerm Business, any of the Purchased Assets, or any of the Assumed Liabilities after the Closing or with respect to any estimates or projections relating to SimpliDerm Sales for the applicable Earnout Period or during the Guaranteed Period.

(f)            Seller acknowledges and agrees that the right to receive any Earnout Payment pursuant to this Agreement: (i) does not represent an equity or other ownership interest in Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates; (ii) does not carry voting, dividend, or liquidation rights; (iii) is not represented by any form of certificate or instrument; (iv) does not bear any interest; and (v) is not assignable or transferable (other than by testamentary disposition or the laws of intestacy).

(g)            Within five Business Days of the final determination of the amount of an Earnout Payment for a particular Earnout Period in accordance with this Section 2.7, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of such Earnout Payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Purchase Price Bank Account.

2.8            Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer is entitled to deduct and withhold from any portion of the Purchase Price, or other payment payable by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld under the Code or any other Legal Requirement with respect to the making of such payment. Other than with respect to Seller’s failure to provide an IRS Form W-9 in accordance with Section 2.4(a)(v) or any compensatory payment, Buyer shall provide Seller with notice of any intent to deduct or withhold any amount, and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted under the Code or any other Legal Requirement. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate Tax Authority, such amounts will be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made and no deduction or withholding effectuated in accordance with this Section 2.8 will constitute or be deemed to constitute a breach of any of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.8 shall limit Buyer’s right or obligation to deduct or withhold any amount where required by applicable Legal Requirements.

The Financial Statements fairly present in all material respects the financial position and results of operations of the SimpliDerm Business as of the dates and for the periods specified, and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered by the Financial Statements (except, in the case of the Interim Financial Statements, for normal recurring year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not, individually or in the aggregate, be material) and the absence of footnotes (that, if presented, would not differ materially from those included in the Fiscal Year Financial Statements)).

(b)            Except as set forth on Schedule 3.3(b), Seller does not have any Liabilities relating to, or otherwise arising from the SimpliDerm Business except for (i) Liabilities reflected or reserved against in the Interim Financial Statements, (ii) current Liabilities incurred in the Ordinary Course since March 31, 2026, none of which results from, arises out of, relates to, is in the nature of, or was caused by any breach of Contract or warranty, infringement, professional error or omission, act or event creating a severance obligation, wrongful discharge claim, or similar Liability, tort, violation of any Legal Requirement, or Proceeding, and (iii) the Transaction Expenses.

(c)            All Accounts Receivable represent valid obligations arising from products actually sold or services actually provided by Seller with respect to the SimpliDerm Business in the Ordinary Course. The Accounts Receivable are current and, to the Knowledge of Seller, collectible in accordance with their terms, net of the respective reserves, if any, reflected in the accounting records of Seller as of the Closing Date, which reserves are sufficient and calculated in accordance with GAAP. There is no pending contest, claim, or right of set-off under any Contract with any obligor of an Account Receivable relating to the amount or validity of such Account Receivable. Schedule 3.3(c) contains a list of all Accounts Receivable as of March 31, 2026, which list sets forth the aging of such Accounts Receivable.

(d)            All information (including financial, operational, commercial, and technical information) provided by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives in connection with the Transactions, including through the Virtual Data Room, is accurate and complete in all material respects and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make such information not misleading.

No transfer of property is being made and no obligation is being incurred in connection with the Transactions with the intent to hinder, delay, or defraud either present or future creditors of Seller or any of its Affiliates. Seller has not incurred, nor plans to incur, debts or Liabilities beyond its ability to pay as they become absolute and matured.

3.4            Assets. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.4, Seller has good, valid, and marketable title to all of the Purchased Assets (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Seller IP Rights and all inventory included in the Purchased Assets) and all of the Purchased Assets are free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances). The tangible Purchased Assets are in good operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and none of which are in need of maintenance or repair, except for ordinary, routine maintenance and repair that are not material in nature or cost. At the Closing, the Purchased Assets will include all of those Assets necessary to conduct the SimpliDerm Business as presently conducted. None of the Excluded Assets are material to the SimpliDerm Business. Seller has never commercialized, manufactured, distributed, sold and/or marketed the Seller Products for any use other than solely for use in the field of breast reconstruction.

In each case in which Seller has acquired, other than through a license, any Intellectual Property Rights from any Person with respect to the SimpliDerm Business or any Purchased Asset, Seller obtained a valid and enforceable assignment sufficient to irrevocably transfer all rights in and to such Intellectual Property Rights to Seller.

(b)            The Seller IP Rights and, to the Knowledge of Seller, all Intellectual Property Rights licensed, used, or exploited by Seller with respect to the SimpliDerm Business or any Purchased Asset are valid and subsisting, in full force and effect, and have not been cancelled, expired, or abandoned. Neither the execution and delivery of any of the Transaction Documents nor the consummation and performance of the Transactions will (i) result in the loss or impairment of Buyer’s right to own, license, use, and exploit any of the Seller IP Rights, as compared to such rights of Seller as of the date immediately prior to the Closing Date or (ii) obligate Buyer to pay any royalties or other amounts to any Person.

(c)            Seller is not infringing, misappropriating, diluting, or violating any of the Intellectual Property Rights of another Person and, to the Knowledge of Seller, no Person is infringing, misappropriating, diluting, or violating any of the Seller IP Rights.

Seller has commercially reasonable information security safeguards in place to maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information stored, processed, and/or transmitted by the Information Systems that are used to conduct the SimpliDerm Business. Seller has not allowed unauthorized access, acquisition, disclosure, or use of any of the foregoing.

ARTICLE VI
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

6.1            Shared Contracts; Key Personnel.

(a)            Except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 6.1(a), Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shared Contracts to be assigned in whole or in part or otherwise replaced with separate contracts that are substantially the same (and, in any event, no worse for Buyer than) the terms of the applicable Shared Contracts so that (i) Buyer shall be entitled to the rights and benefits and shall assume the related portion of any Liabilities, inuring to the SimpliDerm Business or the Seller Products to the same extent received and borne by Seller in accordance with such Shared Contract prior to such assignment or separation; provided that Buyer shall assume Liabilities under such Shared Contracts solely to the extent that such Liabilities would constitute Assumed Liabilities if the portion of the Shared Contract inuring to the SimpliDerm Business and Seller Products had constituted an Assumed Contract that had been transferred to Buyer and (ii) Seller shall be entitled to the rights and benefits, and shall assume the related portion of any Liabilities, inuring to the Excluded Assets or the Retained Business (other than the SimpliDerm Business) to the same extent received and borne in accordance with such Shared Contract prior to such separation or assignment. In the event any Shared Contract cannot be so partially assigned by its terms or otherwise, or cannot be amended or separated (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include any Contract with any Supplier), then the Parties shall take such other reasonable and legally permissible actions (including by providing prompt notice to the other Party with respect to any relevant claim of Liability or other relevant matters arising in connection with a Shared Contract so as to allow such other party the ability to exercise any applicable rights under such Shared Contract) to cause Buyer to receive the rights and benefits of that portion of each Shared Contract that relates to the SimpliDerm Business or Seller Products, as the case may be (in each case, to the extent so related), as if such Shared Contract had been assigned to (or amended to allow assignment to) Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.1(a).

(b)            Seller shall make the individuals listed on Schedule 6.1(b) (the “Key Personnel”) available to Buyer. Seller shall ensure the continued availability of the Key Personnel throughout the Technology Transfer and transition services periods contemplated by this Agreement and the TSA. Seller shall ensure that personnel possessing material knowledge relating to manufacturing, quality, regulatory affairs, product specifications, technology transfer, customer relationships, distributor relationships, GPO agreements, IDN agreements, and commercialization of the Seller Products remain reasonably available to support Buyer during the term of the Technology Transfer, TSA, and any other agreed transition period.

6.2           Proration of Taxes; Bulk Sales.

(a)            In the case of any taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, the portion of any personal property Tax or other applicable non-income Tax (“Prorated Taxes”) attributable to the Purchased Assets or the SimpliDerm Business shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller on a per diem basis with Seller being responsible for any such Prorated Tax attributable to the period ending at the end of the day of the Closing Date and Buyer responsible for any such Prorated Tax attributable to the period commencing after the Closing Date. Prorated Taxes shall be timely paid, and any Tax Return with respect to any Prorated Tax shall be prepared, by the Party responsible for filing any such Tax Return under applicable Law. The paying Party shall be entitled to reimbursement from the non-paying Party in accordance with this Section 6.2(a). Upon payment of any Prorated Tax, the paying Party shall present a statement to the non-paying Party setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the paying Party is entitled under this Section 6.2(a), together with such supporting evidence (such as a receipt of payment from an applicable Tax Authority or other written confirmation of payment) as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount to be reimbursed. The non-paying Party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than 15 Business Days after the presentation of such statement.

(b)            All Transfer Taxes arising in connection with or resulting from the Transactions shall be paid 100% by Seller, and Seller shall prepare and file all Tax Returns and other documentation relating to Transfer Taxes; provided that Seller shall permit Buyer to review and comment on each such Tax Return or other document prior to filing, and Buyer shall cooperate in the execution of any such Tax Return or other document if necessary pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements.

(c)            The Parties agree to waive all bulk sales, bulk transfer, or similar Legal Requirements. The Parties further agree that any Liability arising out of the failure of Seller to comply with the requirements and provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer, or similar Legal Requirement is an Excluded Liability.

6.3            Misdirected Payments. From and after the Closing, if Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates receives or collects any funds relating to any of the Purchased Assets or any accounts or notes receivable owned by (or otherwise payable to) Buyer, then Seller shall, and shall cause Seller’s Affiliates to, remit such funds to Buyer within five Business Days after receipt of such funds. From and after the Closing, if Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates receives or collects any funds relating to any of the Excluded Assets, then Buyer shall, and shall cause Buyer’s Affiliates to, remit such funds to Seller within five Business Days after receipt of such funds. If Seller does not timely pay Buyer in accordance with the foregoing sentence, then Buyer will have the option, in Buyer’s sole discretion, to recover all such amounts payable to Buyer pursuant to Section 10.11, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Buyer at law, in equity, or by Legal Requirement.

6.4           Books and Records.

(a)            To facilitate the resolution of any claims made by or against or incurred by Seller prior to the Closing, or for any other reasonable purpose, for the seven-year period immediately following the Closing, Buyer shall (i) retain copies of all material books, records, and documents included within the Purchased Assets that relate to the SimpliDerm Business and its operations for periods prior to the Closing, and (ii) upon reasonable advance written notice, afford Seller’s Representatives with reasonable access (including the right to make, at Seller’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the businesses and operations of Buyer and Buyer’s Affiliates, to such books, records, and documents.

(b)            To facilitate the resolution of any claims made by or against or incurred by Buyer after the Closing, or for any other reasonable purpose, for the seven-year period immediately following the Closing, Seller shall (i) retain copies of all material books, records, and documents not included within the Purchased Assets that relate to the SimpliDerm Business and its operations for periods prior to the Closing, and (ii) upon reasonable advance written notice, afford Buyer’s Representatives with reasonable access (including the right to make, at Buyer’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the businesses and operations of Seller and Seller’s Affiliates, to such books, records, and documents.

(c)            Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) no Party is obligated to provide any other Party with access to any books, records, or documents pursuant to this Section 6.4, if such access would destroy or waive any legal privilege or be in violation of any applicable Legal Requirement or Contract, and (ii) if the Parties are in an adversarial relationship in any Proceeding, the furnishing of any books, records, or documents pursuant to this Section 6.4 will be subject to applicable rules relating to discovery.

6.5            Public Announcements and Other Communications. Unless required by applicable Legal Requirements, neither Party shall make any public disclosure or permit any of such Party’s Affiliates or Representatives to make any public disclosure (whether or not in response to an inquiry) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the Transactions unless previously approved by the other Party in writing (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Buyer may, in its sole discretion, issue a press release or other public disclosure with respect to the Transaction Documents and the Transactions without the prior consent of Seller; provided, however, Buyer shall provide Seller a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such press release or other public disclosure in advance of such issuance to the extent practicable.

6.6            Operating Unit Names. From and after the Closing Date, Seller shall not use, and Seller shall not allow any of Seller’s Affiliates to use, “SimpliDerm” or any derivation or variation thereof (collectively, the “Operating Unit Names”). Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in making the Operating Unit Names available to Buyer in each jurisdiction in which Seller conducted the SimpliDerm Business prior to the Closing.

6.7            Non-Assignable Contracts. If any Assumed Contract or other Contract included in the Purchased Assets is not capable of being assigned to Buyer at the Closing without the Consent of any Person that has not been obtained as of the Closing (each, a “Non-Assignable Contract”), then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement and any applicable Transaction Document shall not constitute an assignment of, or an attempted assignment of, such Non-Assignable Contract (and all Liabilities pursuant to such Non-Assignable Contract shall constitute Excluded Liabilities). Following the Closing, Seller shall (a) hold each Non-Assignable Contract in trust for the sole benefit of Buyer, (b) continue to perform all obligations under each Non-Assignable Contract as directed by Buyer, (c) pass through to Buyer all economic benefits received by Seller under each Non-Assignable Contract, and (d) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Consent necessary to assign each Non-Assignable Contract to Buyer as promptly as practicable. Upon receipt of any such Consent, Seller shall promptly assign the applicable Non-Assignable Contract to Buyer at no additional cost.

6.8           Technology Transfer.

(a)            As promptly as practicable after the Closing (and, in any event, no later than the expiration of the TSA in accordance with the terms thereof), Seller shall provide to Buyer, a complete technology transfer package (the “Technology Transfer Package”) sufficient to enable Buyer or its applicable Affiliates or designees to independently manufacture, process, test, release, package, label, store, distribute, and commercialize the Seller Products without further material reliance on Seller or the TSA.

(b)            The Technology Transfer Package shall include:

(i)            [***];

(ii)           [***];

(iii)          [***];

(c)            In addition to delivering the Technology Transfer Package, Seller shall provide on-site and remote training, technical assistance, quality support, regulatory support, and engineering support pursuant to the TSA until Seller has delivered the complete Technology Transfer Package (such services, together with the Technology Transfer Package, are collectively referred to as the “Technology Transfer”). The Technology Transfer shall not be deemed complete until Buyer reasonably confirms that the Technology Transfer Package enables independent manufacture of Seller Products meeting existing specifications and quality standards. Seller represents that all manufacturing know-how, SOPs, validation records, quality records, specifications, testing methods, and other information necessary to manufacture SimpliDerm have been provided to Buyer, and Seller shall indemnify Buyer for any Damages, directly or indirectly, as a result of, in connection with, or related to incomplete or inaccurate transfer documentation in the Technology Transfer Package.

(d)            [***]

6.9            Further Assurances. Following the Closing, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other and with their respective Representatives in connection with any steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and the Parties agree (a) to furnish upon request to the other Parties such further information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other Party such other documents, and (c) to do such other acts and things, all as the other Parties reasonably request, for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the Transactions.

(a)            Subject to Section 8.5(f), Seller will have no Liability under Section 8.2(a) (other than with respect to Seller Special Representations and the Seller Fundamental Representations) unless, on or before the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, Buyer notifies Seller in writing of a claim with respect thereto specifying the factual basis of such claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer. Subject to Section 8.5(f), Seller will have no Liability under Section 8.2(a) (solely with respect to the Seller Special Representations), unless, on or before the date that is three years after the Closing, Buyer notifies Seller in writing of a claim with respect thereto specifying the factual basis of such claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer. Subject to Section 8.5(f), Seller will have no Liability under Section 8.2(b), unless, on or before the date that is 60 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions or waivers thereof), Buyer notifies Seller in writing of a claim with respect thereto specifying the factual basis of such claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer. Subject to Section 8.5(e), any claim with respect to Section 8.2(a) (solely with respect to the Seller Fundamental Representations) will survive until the later of (i) the date that is 60 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions or waivers thereof) and (ii) the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date and Buyer is entitled to notify Seller in writing of such a claim at any time prior to such date by specifying the factual basis of such claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer.

8.5           Certain Other Limitations and Guidelines.

(a)            Subject to Section 8.5(f), Seller will have no Liability under Section 8.2(a) (other than with respect to the Seller Fundamental Representations and the Seller Special Representations, to which such limitation does not apply) for any Damages related thereto for which Seller would be liable, but for this sentence, until the aggregate amount of all such Damages equals or exceeds on a cumulative basis a dollar amount equal to 10% of the Purchase Price (the “Deductible Amount”), in which event, subject to the immediately following sentence, Seller will be liable for all such Damages in excess of the Deductible Amount. Subject to Section 8.5(f), Seller will have no Liability under Section 8.2(a) (i) with respect to any representation or warranty made in Article III other than with respect to the Seller Fundamental Representations and the Seller Special Representations (to which such limitation does not apply), for any Damages related thereto for which Seller would be liable, but for this sentence, that exceed a dollar amount equal to 10% of the Purchase Price, (ii) with respect to the Seller Special Representations, for any Damages related thereto for which Seller would be liable, but for this sentence, that exceed a dollar amount equal to 50% of the Purchase Price, and (iii) with respect to the Seller Fundamental Representations, for any Damages related thereto for which Seller would be liable, but for this sentence, that exceed a dollar amount equal to the Purchase Price (the “Overall Cap Amount”).

(b)            Subject to Section 8.5(f), Buyer will have no Liability under Section 8.3(a) (other than with respect to the Buyer Fundamental Representations, to which such limitation does not apply) for any Damages related thereto for which Buyer would be liable, but for this sentence, until the aggregate amount of all such Damages equals or exceeds on a cumulative basis a dollar amount equal to the Deductible Amount, in which event, subject to the immediately following sentence, Buyer will be liable for all such Damages in excess of the Deductible Amount. Subject to Section 8.5(f), Buyer will have no Liability under Section 8.3(a) for any Damages related thereto for which Buyer would be liable, but for this sentence, that exceed a dollar amount equal to the Overall Cap Amount.

(c)            An Indemnifying Person will have no Liability pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 for those Damages covered by insurance proceeds that are actually received by the Indemnified Person with respect to such Damages (net of any related costs incurred in connection therewith, including costs of recovery, deductibles, retroactive premiums, and premium increases). Each Indemnified Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under applicable insurance policies for any such Damages covered by such insurance policies; provided, however, that such Indemnified Person will not be required to make any claim under any such insurance policy prior to making a claim for indemnification under this Agreement.

(d)            The Parties agree that an Indemnified Person’s rights to indemnification or other remedy with respect thereto or otherwise under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, as applicable, are part of the basis of the bargain contemplated by this Agreement. The representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, and agreements of the Parties, and an Indemnified Person’s right to indemnification or other remedy with respect thereto or otherwise under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, as applicable, will not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person, such Indemnified Person’s Affiliates, or any of the Representatives of any of the foregoing, or by reason of the fact that such Indemnified Person, such Indemnified Person’s Affiliates, or any such Representatives of any of the foregoing knew or should have known that any such representation, warranty, covenant, obligation, or agreement is, was, or might be inaccurate, breached, or not complied with, and such Indemnified Person will be deemed to have relied upon such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, and agreements notwithstanding any such investigation, actual or constructive knowledge, or waiver.

(e)            For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages to which a Buyer Indemnified Person is entitled under this Article VIII, the terms “material”, “materially”, “materiality”, “material adverse effect”, and “Seller Material Adverse Effect” and other similar qualifications will be disregarded.

(f)            Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, including Section 8.4 and this Section 8.5, limits (i) the survival of any claim (including any Direct Claim or Third-Party Claim) for Fraud, (ii) the Liability of any Indemnifying Person to any Indemnified Person for Fraud, or (iii) the manner in which any claim (including any Direct Claim or Third-Party Claim) for Fraud is satisfied.

8.6            Procedure for Indemnification – Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Person receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Proceeding made or brought by or on behalf of any Person who is not a Party, an Affiliate of a Party, or a Representative of a Party or an Affiliate of a Party (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Person with respect to which the Indemnifying Person is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, then such Indemnified Person shall give the Indemnifying Person prompt written notice of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice will not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Person of the Indemnifying Person’s indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Person must describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and must indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or could be sustained by the Indemnified Person.

8.7            Procedure for Indemnification – Direct Claims. An Indemnified Person shall assert any claim on account of Damages that do not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) by giving the Indemnifying Person prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice will not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Person of the Indemnifying Person’s indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Person must describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail and indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or could be sustained by the Indemnified Person. The Indemnifying Person shall have 30 days following receipt of a Direct Claim notice to dispute such Direct Claim. If no written objection is delivered within such 30-day period, the Direct Claim shall be deemed accepted by the Indemnifying Person.

10.4         Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the final, complete, entire, and exclusive agreement among the Parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings (including the Letter of Intent and the Confidentiality Agreement), whether written or oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding anything in the Confidentiality Agreement or the Letter of Intent to the contrary, Seller agrees that, immediately and automatically upon the Closing, neither Buyer nor any of Buyer’s Affiliates, or any of their respective Representatives, will have any further obligations to Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates, or any of their respective Representatives, under, or be subject to the restrictions in, the Confidentiality Agreement or the Letter of Intent. Any amendment of this Agreement must be pursuant to a written agreement signed by the Parties.

Neither the failure nor any delay by either of the Parties in exercising any right under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, and no single or partial exercise of any such right will preclude any other or further exercise of such right or the exercise of any other right. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement, whether or not similar, nor will any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or based on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement, or other remedy based on such representation, warranty, covenant, obligation, or agreement.

10.6         Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will be, as to that jurisdiction, ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms or provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to give effect to the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner so that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

10.7         Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)            This Agreement, as well as all matters in dispute between the Parties, whether arising from or relating to this Agreement or arising from or relating to alleged extra-contractual facts prior to, during, or subsequent to this Agreement, including Fraud, misrepresentation, negligence, or any other alleged tort or violation of this Agreement, regardless of the legal theory upon which such matter is asserted, will be governed by, construed under, and enforced in accordance with the Legal Requirements of the State of Delaware (explicitly including the Delaware statute of limitations) without regard to any choice of laws or conflicts of laws provisions, rules, or principles that would require the application of any other Legal Requirements.

EITHER PARTY IS PERMITTED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION 10.7(b) WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY, AND BARGAINED FOR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES TO IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY, AND THAT ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS IS INSTEAD TO BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

Elutia Signs Definitive Agreement to Sell SimpliDerm® in Transaction Valued at up to $11 Million, Strengthening Balance Sheet Ahead of NXT-41x Launch

GAITHERSBURG, Md., July 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Elutia Inc. (Nasdaq: ELUT) (“Elutia” or the “Company”), a pioneer in drug-eluting biomatrix technologies, today announced the signing of a definitive agreement to sell its SimpliDerm® human acellular dermal matrix business to Cellution Biologics Inc. for total consideration of up to $11 million. Elutia will receive $8 million in cash at closing, along with up to $3 million in technology transfer and commercial milestone payments over the next 18 months. Closing is expected to occur in the second half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

The divestiture completes Elutia’s previously announced strategic process for SimpliDerm and focuses the Company’s resources on NXT-41x, its next-generation antibiotic-eluting biomatrix for plastic and reconstructive surgery. The proceeds further strengthen Elutia’s balance sheet without equity dilution and provide additional capital to support its planned commercial launch in 2027.

“This transaction is another decisive step in fortifying Elutia’s balance sheet with non-dilutive capital and sharpening our focus on NXT-41x,” said Dr. Randy Mills, Chief Executive Officer of Elutia. “SimpliDerm is a well-established regenerative solution developed by Elutia, and this transaction places the business with an organization committed to its continued success. Looking ahead, we believe NXT-41x has the potential to redefine soft tissue reinforcement for women undergoing surgery after breast cancer, a setting in which serious complications still affect as many as 1 in 3 patients. We are committed to changing that.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Elutia will receive $8 million in cash at closing, along with up to an additional $3 million in technology transfer and commercial milestone payments payable over the next 18 months.

NXT-41x is being developed for the approximately $1.5 billion U.S. plastic and reconstructive surgery market, where Elutia believes antibiotic-eluting biomatrix technologies fulfill a significant unmet need in soft tissue reinforcement.

About Elutia

Elutia develops and commercializes drug-eluting biomatrix products to improve compatibility between medical devices and the patients who need them. With a growing population in need of implantable technologies, Elutia’s mission is humanizing medicine so patients can thrive without compromise. For more information, visit www.Elutia.com.
