5.Annual Compensation. Executive’s base salary rate shall be equal to $911,622.27 per annum. Executive’s base salary, as determined in accordance with this Section 5 and as may be increased from time to time, is hereinafter referred to as his “Base Salary.” Executive’s Base Salary shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices in effect from time to time. The Base Salary shall be subject to annual review, but may not be decreased without Executive’s express written consent. Any increase in the Base Salary shall be in the sole discretion of the Company.

(a)Annual Bonus. Commencing with calendar year 2018, Executive shall have the opportunity to receive an annual performance bonus in an amount targeted at 120% of Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”), and ranging from 50% of Executive’s Target Bonus (if threshold performance objectives are achieved) to a maximum of 200% of Executive’s Target Bonus.

objectives established and evaluated by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) in its sole discretion.

(b)Time and Form of Payment. The Compensation Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine the extent to which the Annual Bonus shall be paid in cash and the extent to which such Annual Bonus shall be paid in the form of one or more equity-based awards (including equity-based awards settled on a deferred basis), provided that any portion of such Annual Bonus that is paid in the form of an equity-based award shall be fully vested as of the date on which such award is granted.

8.Benefit Plans. Executive shall be entitled to participate in and receive benefits under any employee benefit plan or stock-based plan of the Company in accordance with their terms, and shall be eligible for any other plans and benefits covering executives of the Company, to the extent commensurate with his then duties and responsibilities fixed by the Board. The Company shall not make any change in such plans or benefits that would adversely affect Executive’s rights thereunder, unless such change affects all, or substantially all, executive officers of the Company.

(a)    The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company may in its discretion grant Executive equity-based compensation awards from time to time. Executive shall be eligible to receive a discretionary annual equity-based award (“Annual Equity Award”) as determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion. Any Annual Equity Award that the Company determines to grant Executive may be in such amount, form(s) and mix as the Compensation Committee shall determine in its sole discretion after giving consideration to annual equity-based awards granted to Chief Executive Officers in the Company’s peer group. The terms and conditions of the Annual Equity Awards, if any, shall be set forth in separate award agreements to be entered into by Executive and the Company that are substantially similar to the applicable form of award agreement attached hereto as Exhibits C-1, C-2 and C-3.

(b)    Each Company equity compensation award granted to Executive, including but not limited to those held by Executive that are outstanding as of the Effective Date, (i) shall, to the extent that such award does not provide for 100% vesting of the shares subject to such award upon a Change in Control, provide for 100% vesting of the shares subject to such awards upon a Qualifying Termination (as defined in the applicable award agreement which, to the extent such phrase includes a termination by the Company without Cause, by Executive for Good Reason and/or as a result of Executive’s Disability, shall refer to such terms as defined herein) on or within 24 months following a Change in Control (as defined herein), and (ii) if such award is a Company stock option and Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, by Executive for Good Reason or as a result of Executive’s death or Disability, shall, to the extent vested as of the Termination Date (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting that occurs in connection with such termination), remain exercisable until the earlier to occur of (A) the second anniversary of the Termination Date or, if later, such longer period of time as set forth

in the applicable stock option agreement, or (B) the stated expiration date set forth in the applicable stock option agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 9(b) shall constitute an amendment to each Company equity compensation award agreement outstanding as of the Effective Date to the extent necessary to implement the requirements of this Section 9(b).

(c)    The Company agrees that for so long as it is required to file reports under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, it will maintain in effect a Form S-8 registration statement covering the issuance to Executive of the shares underlying Executive’s then outstanding equity-based compensation awards.

10.Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to four weeks of paid annual vacation in accordance with the policies established from time to time by the Board.

12.Business Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Executive or otherwise pay for all reasonable expenses incurred by Executive in furtherance of or in connection with the business of the Company, including, but not limited to, automobile and traveling expenses and all reasonable entertainment expenses, subject to such reasonable documentation and other limitations as may be established by the Company.

13.Legal Fees. The Company shall reimburse Executive for up to $15,000 in legal fees and expenses actually incurred by Executive in connection with the drafting, review and negotiation of this Agreement and any related agreements on or prior to the Effective Date.

(a)Termination without Salary Continuation. In the event that (i) Executive terminates his employment hereunder other than for Good Reason, or (ii) Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, Executive shall have no right to compensation or other benefits pursuant to this Agreement for any period after his last day of active employment.

(b)Termination without Cause or for Good Reason (No Change in Control). Except as provided in Section 15(c) in the event of a Change in Control, and subject to Executive and the Company each executing a general release attached as Exhibit A and B hereto, respectively, (provided, however, that Executive shall not be required to execute a general release as a condition to the receipt of the payments and benefits described below unless the Company also

executes a general release) within 30 days following the Termination Date, in the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for a reason other than death, Disability or Cause, or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, then, subject to Section 15(e) below, the Company shall:

(i)pay Executive a severance amount equal to 2.99 times Executive’s Base Salary (determined without regard to any reduction in violation of Section 5) as of his last day of active employment; the severance amount shall be paid in a single lump sum on the first business day of the month following the Termination Date;

(ii)pay to Executive, for the period ending on the earliest of (A) 18 months following the Termination Date, (B) the date of Executive’s full-time employment by another employer, (C) Executive’s death, or (D) the first month in which Executive does not pay to the Company the applicable monthly premium for COBRA insurance coverage under the Company’s group health plan, a monthly cash payment, payable on the first business day of each month that follows the Termination Date, in an amount equal to Executive’s monthly premium cost for “COBRA” family health coverage under the Company’s group health plan; and

(iii)pay to Executive, for the period ending on the earliest of (A) 18 months following the Termination Date, (B) the date of Executive’s full-time employment by another employer, or (C) Executive’s death, a monthly cash payment, payable on the first business day of each month that follows the Termination Date, in an amount equal to the monthly premium cost that the Company would have paid on behalf of Executive to cover Executive under the Company’s life and disability insurance plans if Executive’s employment with the Company had not terminated.

(c)Termination without Cause or for Good Reason (Change in Control). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 15(b), and subject to Executive and the Company each executing a general release attached as Exhibit A and B hereto, respectively, (provided, however, that Executive shall not be required to execute a general release as a condition to the receipt of the payments and benefits described below unless the Company also executes a general release) within 30 days following the Termination Date, in the event that within 24 months following a Change in Control Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, or Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for a reason other than death, Disability or Cause, then, subject to Section 15(e) below, the Company shall:

(i)pay Executive a severance amount equal to 2.99 times the sum of (a) Executive’s Base Salary (determined without regard to any reduction in violation of Section 5), and (b) Executive’s Target Bonus, each as of his last day of active employment; the severance amount shall be paid in a single lump sum on the first business day of the month following the Termination Date;

(ii)pay to Executive, for the period ending on the earliest of (A) 18 months following the Termination Date, (B) the date of Executive’s full-time employment by another employer, (C) Executive’s death, or (D) the first month in which Executive does not pay to the Company the applicable monthly premium for COBRA insurance coverage under the Company’s group health plan, a monthly cash payment, payable on the first business day of each month that follows the Termination Date, in an amount equal to Executive’s monthly premium cost for “COBRA” family health coverage under the Company’s group health plan;

(iii)pay to Executive, for the period ending on the earliest of (A) 18 months following the Termination Date, (B) the date of Executive’s full-time employment by another employer, or (C) Executive’s death, a monthly cash payment, payable on the first business day of each month that follows the Termination Date, in an amount equal to the monthly premium cost that the Company would have paid on behalf of Executive to cover Executive under the Company’s life and disability insurance plans if Executive’s employment with the Company had not terminated; and

(iv)pay to Executive a pro-rata portion of Executive’s Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs, based on actual results for such year (determined by multiplying the amount of such bonus which would be due for the full fiscal year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the fiscal year of termination that Executive is employed by the Company and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such fiscal year), payable in a single lump sum no later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the Termination Date occurs.

(d)Termination Notice. Except in the event of Executive’s death, a termination under this Agreement shall be effected by means of a Termination Notice.

(e)Payment Delay. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, no compensation or benefits, including without limitation any severance payments or benefits payable under this Section 15, shall be paid to Executive during the six (6)-month period following Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) to the extent that the Company reasonably determines that paying such amounts at the time or times indicated in this Agreement would be a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code. Any amounts delayed as a result of the previous sentence shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the end of such six (6) month period, and any amounts payable to Executive after the expiration of such six (6) month period under this Agreement shall continue to be paid to Executive in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Executive dies during such six-month period and prior to the payment of the delayed amounts hereunder, such unpaid delayed payments shall be paid to the personal representative of Executive’s estate within thirty (30) days after the date of Executive’s death. If any of the payments payable pursuant to this Section 15 are delayed due to such requirements, there shall be added to such payments interest during the delayed period at a rate, per annum, equal to the applicable federal

short-term deferral rate (compounded monthly) in effect under Section 1274(d) of the Code on Executive’s Termination Date. If a portion of the severance pay or benefits is deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, and the payment thereof is contingent upon execution and nonrevocation of a general release of claims, and the period for considering or revoking the release spans two calendar years, then the portion of the severance pay or benefits that is deferred compensation will be paid or begin to be paid on the first business day of the second calendar year.

(f)Expiration of Employment Term. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in no event shall the expiration of the employment term set forth in Section 3 above or the Company’s election not to renew the employment term constitute a termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause.

(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by Executive (including any payment or benefit received in connection with a termination of Executive’s employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (all such payments and benefits, including the payments and benefits under Section 15 hereof, being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part) to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of Section 280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, the Total Payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax, but such reduction shall be made only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments), is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). The Total Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (A) reduction of any cash severance payments otherwise payable to Executive that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code; (B) reduction of any other cash payments or benefits otherwise payable to Executive that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code, but excluding any payments attributable to any acceleration of vesting or payments with respect to any equity award that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code; (C) reduction of any other payments or benefits otherwise payable to Executive on a pro-rated basis or such other manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code, but excluding any payments attributable to any acceleration of vesting and payments with respect to any equity award that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code; and (D) reduction of any payments attributable to any acceleration of

vesting or payments with respect to any equity award that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code, in each case beginning with payments that would otherwise be made last in time.

(b)For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account; (ii) no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the written opinion of independent auditors of nationally recognized standing (“Independent Advisors”) selected by the Company, does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of the Independent Advisors, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the Base Amount (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) allocable to such reasonable compensation; and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by the Independent Advisors in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.

17.Assignability. The Company may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any entity to which the Company may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, if in any such case said entity shall expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Company hereunder as fully as if it had been originally made a party hereto. The Company may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations hereunder. This Agreement is personal to Executive and his rights and duties hereunder shall not be assigned except as expressly agreed to in writing by the Company.

18.Death of Executive. If Executive dies during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay Executive’s spouse a death benefit equal to one (1) times Executive’s Base Salary at the time of his death, which shall be paid to Executive’s spouse in a lump sum cash payment within thirty (30) days following the date of Executive’s death. In addition, the Company shall pay to Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents for the period ending on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of Executive’s death, or (ii) the first month in which Executive’s spouse and/or eligible dependents do not pay to the Company the applicable monthly premium for COBRA insurance coverage under the Company’s group health plan, a monthly cash payment that is equal to Executive’s monthly premium cost for “COBRA” family health coverage under the Company’s group health plan. The first monthly cash payment provided for in the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid within thirty (30) days following the date of Executive’s death and each monthly payment thereafter shall be paid on the first business day of each month, commencing with the second month that follows the date of Executive’s death. Any amounts due Executive under this Agreement (not including any Base Salary not yet earned by Executive) unpaid as of the date of Executive’s death shall be paid in a single sum on the first business day of the second month following Executive’s death to Executive’s surviving spouse, or if none, to the duly appointed personal representative of his estate.

(a)Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges a duty of confidentiality owed to the Company and shall not, at any time during or after his employment by the Company, retain in writing, use, divulge, furnish, or make accessible to anyone, without the express authorization of the Board, any trade secret, private or confidential information or knowledge of the Company obtained or acquired by him while so employed, except as required by law. All computer software, business cards, telephone lists, customer lists, price lists, contract forms, catalogs, Company books, records, files and know-how acquired while an employee of the Company are acknowledged to be the property of the Company and shall not be duplicated, removed from the Company’s possession or premises or made use of other than in pursuit of the Company’s business or as may otherwise be required by law or any legal process, or as is necessary in connection with any adversarial proceeding against the Company and, upon termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall deliver to the Company, without further demand, all copies thereof which are then in his possession or under his control. No information shall be treated as “confidential information” if it is generally available public knowledge at the time of disclosure or use by Executive. Nothing contained in this Section 19(a) or otherwise herein shall prohibit Executive from communicating directly with, cooperating with or providing information to any federal, state or local government regulator.

(b)Inventions and Improvements. Executive shall promptly communicate to the Company all ideas, discoveries and inventions which are or may be useful to the Company or its business. Executive acknowledges that all such ideas, discoveries, inventions, and improvements which heretofore have been or are hereafter made, conceived, or reduced to practice by him at any time during his employment with the Company heretofore or hereafter gained by him at any time during his employment with the Company are the property of the Company, and Executive hereby irrevocably assigns all such ideas, discoveries, inventions, and improvements to the Company for its sole use and benefit, without additional compensation. The provisions of this Section 19(b) shall apply whether such ideas, discoveries, inventions, or improvements were or are conceived, made or gained by him alone or with others, whether during or after usual working hours, whether on or off the job, whether applicable to matters directly or indirectly related to the Company’s business interests (including potential business interests), and whether or not within the specific realm of his duties. Executive shall, upon request of the Company, but at no expense to Executive, at any time during or after his employment with the Company, sign all instruments and documents reasonably requested by the Company and otherwise cooperate with the Company to protect its right to such ideas, discoveries, inventions, or improvements including applying for, obtaining, and enforcing patents and copyrights thereon in such countries as Company shall determine.

(c)Noncompetition. During the Employment Period and during the Restricted Period following any Termination Date that occurs during, or upon the expiration or termination of, the Employment Period, Executive shall not, without the express written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly: (i) engage in any business or other activity conducted or operated in the

United States, Canada and internationally which is competitive with the Company in the products or services being published, manufactured, marketed, distributed, or being actively developed by the Company as evidenced by the Company’s books and records as of the Termination Date (the “Business”); (ii) be or become a stockholder, partner, owner, officer, director or employee or agent of, or a consultant to or give financial or other assistance to, any person or entity engaged in the Business; (iii) seek in competition with the business of the Company to procure orders from or do business with any customer of the Company; (iv) solicit, or contact with a view to the engagement or employment by any person or entity of, any person who is an employee of the Company; (v) seek to contract with or engage (in such a way as to adversely affect or interfere with the business of the Company) any person or entity who has been contracted with or engaged to manufacture, assemble, supply or deliver products, goods, materials or services to the Company; or (vi) engage in or participate in any effort or act to induce any of the customers, associates, consultants, or employees of the Company to take any action which might be disadvantageous to the Company; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit Executive and his affiliates from owning, as passive investors, in the aggregate not more than 5% of the outstanding publicly traded stock of any corporation so engaged; and provided, further, following the Termination Date, that Executive shall not be prohibited from (1) making any investment in, being or becoming a partner, owner, officer, director or employee or agent of, or consultant to, or give financial or other assistance to, any business enterprise (including, without limitation, any investment or venture capital fund or investment bank) that makes or has made any investment in or that provides advisory, financing or underwriting services to any Person or entity engaged in the Business provided that Executive does not render services (whether as an employee, consultant, advisor or otherwise) to the division or portion of such person or entity engaged in the Business or (2) rendering services (including under (1) above) to an entity conducting its business operations or providing services in the Business, if such entity is diversified and Executive does not render services, directly or indirectly, to the division or portion of the entity which is conducting its business operations or providing services in the Business. In the event that this Agreement expires or is otherwise terminated and Executive’s employment with the Company continues after the expiration or termination of this Agreement (such that this Agreement no longer governs the terms of Executive’s employment with the Company), the restrictions set forth in this Section 19(c) shall cease to be of any force or effect with respect to any action or activity by Executive following such expiration or termination of this Agreement.

(i)Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained herein are fair and reasonable in light of the consideration paid hereunder, and that damages alone shall not be an adequate remedy for any breach by Executive of his covenants contained herein and accordingly expressly agrees that, in addition to any other remedies which Company may have, Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for any breach or threatened breach of any such covenants by Executive. Nothing contained herein shall prevent or delay Company from seeking, in any court of

competent jurisdiction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in the event of any breach or intended breach by Executive of any of its obligations hereunder.

(ii)Notwithstanding the equitable relief available to the Company, Executive, in the event of a breach of his covenants contained in Section 19 hereof, understands and agrees that the uncertainties and delay inherent in the legal process would result in a continuing breach for some period of time, and therefore, continuing injury to the Company until and unless Company can obtain such equitable relief. Therefore, in addition to such equitable relief, Company shall be entitled to monetary damages for any such period of breach until the termination of such breach, in an amount up to the amount of all monies received by Executive as a result of said breach. If Executive should use or reveal to any other person or entity any confidential information, such use or revelation would be considered a continuing violation on a daily basis for as long as such confidential information is made use of by Executive.

(iii)If any provision of Section 19 is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of its duration or scope, such duration or scope, or both, shall be deemed to be reduced to a duration or scope to the extent necessary to render such provision valid and enforceable. In such event, Executive shall negotiate in good faith to provide Company with lawful and enforceable protection that is most nearly equivalent to that found to be invalid or unenforceable.

(e)Continuing Operation. Except as specifically provided in this Section 19, the termination of Executive’s employment or of this Agreement shall have no effect on the continuing operation of this Section 19.

(f)Company. For purposes of this Section 19, the term “Company” shall mean Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation and any corporation, partnership or other entity owned directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation.

(a)Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is signed by Executive and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board to sign on the Company’s behalf.

(i)This Agreement shall be interpreted to avoid any penalty taxes or interest under Section 409A of the Code. If any payment or benefit cannot be provided or made at the time specified herein without incurring taxes or interest under Section 409A of the Code, then such benefit or payment shall be provided in full at the earliest time thereafter when such taxes or interest will not be imposed. All payments of nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code to be made upon a termination of

employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” as defined under Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.

(ii)To the extent that any payments or reimbursements provided to Executive under this Agreement are deemed to constitute compensation to which Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) would apply, such payments or reimbursements shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (A) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (B) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (C) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (D) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. If expenses are incurred in connection with litigation, any reimbursements under this Agreement shall be paid not later than the end of the calendar year following the year in which the litigation is resolved.

(c)Nature of Obligations. Nothing contained herein shall create or require the Company to create a trust of any kind to fund any benefits which may be payable hereunder, and to the extent that Executive acquires a right to receive benefits from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(d)Withholding. The Company shall have the right to withhold from all payments made pursuant to this Agreement any federal, state, or local taxes and such other amounts as may be required by law to be withheld from such payments.

(e)Prior Employment. Executive represents and warrants that his acceptance of employment with the Company has not breached, and the performance of his duties hereunder will not breach, any duty owed by him to any prior employer or other person. Executive further represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the performance of his obligations hereunder will not violate any agreement between him and any other person, firm, organization or other entity, (ii) he is not bound by the terms of any agreement with any previous employer or other party to refrain from competing, directly or indirectly, with the business of such previous employer or other party that would be violated by him entering into this Agreement and/or providing services to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) Executive’s performance of his duties under this Agreement will not require him to, and he shall not, rely on in the performance of his duties or disclose to the Company or any other person or entity or induce the Company in any way to use or rely on any trade secret or other confidential or proprietary information or material belonging to any previous employer of Executive.

(f)Headings. The Section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation or this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between a heading and the content of a Section, the content of the Section shall control.

(g)Recoupment. To the extent required by applicable law or any applicable securities exchange listing standards, any amounts paid or payable under this Agreement (including, without limitation, amounts paid prior to the effectiveness of such law or listing standards) shall be subject to forfeiture, repayment or recapture to the extent required by such applicable law or listing standard.

(h)Gender and Number. Whenever used in this Agreement, a masculine pronoun is deemed to include the feminine and a neuter pronoun is deemed to include both the masculine and the feminine, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The singular form, whenever used herein, shall mean or include the plural form where applicable.

(i)Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law, such event shall not affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement and shall not affect the application of any provision to other persons or circumstances.

(j)Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.

(k)Notice. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if hand-delivered, sent by documented overnight delivery service or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth below:

The Company further understands and agrees that neither the payment of any sum of money nor the execution of this Release shall constitute or be construed as an admission of any liability whatsoever by the Releasees, or any of them, who have consistently taken the position that they have no liability whatsoever to the Company.

CONTRACT STOCK / RESTRICTED UNITS AGREEMENT, dated as of [_______], by and between Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Peter J. Arduini (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Company maintains the Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation Fourth Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference and made part of this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the award of Contract Stock on the terms and conditions set forth therein; and

WHEREAS, the Committee has determined that, as an inducement to the Executive to enter into or remain in the service of the Company, it would be to the advantage and in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant to Executive an aggregate of [______] ([______]) shares of Contract Stock under the Plan in the form of restricted units (the “Units”), representing the right to receive an equal number of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share (“Common Stock”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration the legal sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan, unless otherwise indicated.

2. Grant of Units. Executive is hereby granted, as of [______] (the “Grant Date”), deferred compensation in the form of [______] ([______]) Units pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan. The Executive’s right to receive the shares of Common Stock underlying the Units shall be subject to forfeiture as provided in Section 4 of this Agreement.

3. Vesting.

(a)    Subject to paragraph (b) and Section 4 below, the Units shall vest in cumulative installments as follows:

(i)    [______] ([__]) of the Units shall vest on the [______] anniversary of the Grant Date;

(ii)    [______] ([__]) of the Units shall vest on the [______] anniversary of the Grant Date; and

(iii)    [______] ([__]) of the Units shall vest on the [______] anniversary of the Grant Date;

(b)    One hundred percent (100%) of the then outstanding Units shall vest in the event that:

(i)    Executive incurs a Termination of Service (as defined below) (1) by reason of the Executive’s “Disability” (as defined in the Plan), or (2) by reason of the Executive’s death;

(ii)    Executive incurs a termination of employment by reason of Executive’s Retirement (as defined below); or

(iii)    a Change in Control occurs and the Executive incurs a Qualifying Termination on or within twenty-four (24) months following the date of such Change in Control.

(c)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Qualifying Termination” means a Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason or a termination of employment by the Executive due to the Executive’s Retirement.    

(d)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement Eligible” means Executive has attained the age of 55 and has been in continuous service to the Company or its Related Corporations as an employee or Associate for ten (10) years or more.

(e)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean a termination of Executive’s employment by Executive following the date on which Executive becomes Retirement Eligible; provided, that Executive provides no less than six (6) months’ prior written notice of such termination of employment unless a shorter period of time is agreed to by the Committee.

(f)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Termination of Service” shall mean the time when the Executive ceases to provide services to the Company and its Related Corporations and Affiliates as an employee or Associate for any reason with or without Cause, including, but not by way of limitation, a termination by resignation, discharge, death, or disability. A Termination of Service shall not include a termination where the Executive is simultaneously reemployed by, or remains employed by, or continues to provide services to, the Company and/or one or more of its Related Corporations and Affiliates or a successor entity thereto.

4. Forfeiture of Units. Immediately upon (i) if prior to a Change in Control, a Termination of Service for any reason other than the Executive’s death, Disability or Retirement or (ii) if on or following a Change in Control, a Termination of Service for any reason other than the Executive’s death, Disability or Qualifying Termination, the Executive shall forfeit any and

all Units which have not vested or do not vest on or prior to such termination, and the Executive’s rights in any such Units which are not so vested shall terminate, lapse and expire (including the Executive’s right to receive the shares underlying such Units).

5. Dividend Equivalents. Executive shall be entitled to receive, with respect to all outstanding vested Units (as such Units may be adjusted under Section 9), dividend equivalent amounts equal to the regular quarterly cash dividend payable to holders of Common Stock (to the extent regular quarterly cash dividends are paid) as if Executive were an actual shareholder with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock equal to his outstanding vested Units. Such dividend equivalent amounts shall be aggregated on a quarterly basis while the Units are outstanding and paid to Executive within thirty (30) days following the first business day that occurs immediately following the 6-month period after the date of Executive’s “separation from service” from the Company (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and its corresponding regulations) (a “Separation from Service”). For the avoidance of doubt, such dividend equivalent amounts shall only be paid with respect to Units that are vested as of the applicable dividend payment date, and Executive shall not be entitled to receive any dividend equivalent amounts with respect to Units that are not vested as of such dividend payment date. The dividend equivalents and any amounts that may become payable in respect thereof shall be treated separately from the Units and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Code Section 409A.

6. Payment of Units.

(a)    The shares of Common Stock underlying Units which are then vested under Section 3 shall be paid out to Executive following Executive’s Separation from Service, as follows: (i) if such Separation from Service occurs prior to the date on which Executive becomes Retirement Eligible, then within thirty (30) days following the first business day that occurs immediately following the 6-month period after the date of Executive’s Separation from Service or (ii) if such Separation from Service occurs on or following the date on which Executive becomes Retirement Eligible, then within thirty (30) days following the first business day that occurs immediately following the later to occur of (i) the date on which the Units would have vested in accordance with this Agreement had Executive continued to be in service with the Company until such date and (ii) the 6-month period after the date of Executive’s Separation from Service.

(b)    All payments of shares of Common Stock underlying Units (“Unit Shares”) shall be made by the Company in the form of whole shares of Common Stock, and any fractional share shall be distributed in cash in an amount equal to the value of such fractional share determined based on the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) as of the date immediately prior to such distribution.

(c)    Any Unit Shares delivered shall be deposited in an account designated by Executive and maintained at a brokerage house selected by Executive. Any such Unit Shares shall be duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable shares, listed with NASDAQ or the principal United States securities exchange on which the Common Stock is admitted to trading

and, so long as the Company is required to file reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, registered on a Form S-8 registration statement maintained by the Company, if registration is requested by Executive.

(d)    Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Executive shall not be deemed to be a holder of any Common Stock pursuant to a Unit until the date of the issuance of a certificate to him for such shares and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Executive shall not have any rights to dividends or any other rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock covered by a Unit until such shares of Common Stock have been issued to him, which issuance shall not be unreasonably delayed.

(e)    The Company shall be entitled to withhold in cash, shares or deduction from other compensation payable to the Executive any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to the grant, vesting, distribution or payment of the Units or the Unit Shares. In satisfaction of the foregoing requirement with respect to the grant, vesting, distribution or payment of the Units or Unit Shares, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, including Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(vi), the Company shall withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon payment of the Units having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. In the event that the number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld is not a whole number of shares, the number of shares so withheld shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

(f)    Executive’s right to receive payment of any amounts under this Agreement shall be an unfunded entitlement and shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company.

(g)    After payment in accordance with this Section 6, the Unit Shares may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by Executive for a period of five days after receipt of such shares by Executive, except that no such restrictions shall apply in the case of a Change in Control or in the event that Unit Shares are sold or withheld in order to satisfy any obligations Executive may have with respect to any applicable tax withholding requirements on vesting or receipt of Unit Shares (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 6(e) above).

7. Clawback. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, the Units and shares of Common Stock represented by the Units shall be subject to the provisions of any clawback, repayment or recapture policy implemented by the Company, including any such policy adopted to comply with applicable law (including without limitation the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) or securities exchange listing standards and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, to the extent set forth in such policy and/or in any notice or agreement relating to the Units and shares of Common Stock under the Plan.

8. Representations. The Company represents and warrants that this Agreement has been authorized by all necessary action of the Company, has been approved by the Board and is a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms

and that the Unit Shares will be issued pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan, will be listed with NASDAQ or the principal United States securities exchange on which the Common Stock is admitted to trading, and will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares. The Company further represents and warrants that the grant of Units under this Agreement has been approved by the Company’s Compensation Committee, that the Plan has and will have sufficient shares available to effect the distribution of the Unit Shares.

9. Changes in the Common Stock and Adjustment of Units.

(a)    In the event the outstanding shares of the Common Stock shall be changed into an increased number of shares, through a share dividend or a split-up of shares, or into a decreased number of shares, through a combination of shares, then immediately after the record date for such change, the number of Units then subject to this Agreement shall be proportionately increased, in case of such share dividend or split-up of shares, or proportionately decreased, in case of such combination of shares. In the event the Company shall issue any of its shares of stock or other securities or property (other than Common Stock which is covered by the preceding sentence), in a reclassification of the Common Stock (including without limitation any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing entity), the kind and number of Units subject to this Agreement immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Executive shall be entitled to receive the same kind and number of shares or other securities or property which the Executive would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above, had he owned the shares of the Common Stock represented by the Units under this Agreement immediately prior to the happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto, which adjustment shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

(b)    In the event the Company shall distribute to all holders of the Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including leveraged recapitalizations with special cash distributions, but excluding regular quarterly cash dividends), then in each case the number of Units thereafter subject to this Agreement shall be determined by multiplying the number of Units theretofore subject to this Agreement by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the then current market price per share of Common Stock (as determined in paragraph (c) below) on the record date for such distribution, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the then current market price per share of the Common Stock less the then fair value (as mutually determined in good faith by the Board and the Executive) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to a share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made, and shall become effective on the date of distribution retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.

(c)    For the purpose of any computation under paragraph (b) of this Section 9, the current market price per share of the Common Stock at any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily Stock Prices (as defined herein) for 15 consecutive Trading Days (as defined herein) commencing 20 Trading Days before the date of such computation. “Stock Price” for

each Trading Day shall be the “Fair Market Value” of the Common Stock (as defined in the Plan, as in effect on the date of this Agreement) for such Trading Day. “Trading Day” shall be each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, other than any day on which the Common Stock is not traded on the exchange or in the market which is the principal United States market for the Common Stock.

(d)    For the purpose of this Section 9, the term “Common Stock” shall mean (i) the class of Company securities designated as the Common Stock at the date of this Agreement, or (ii) any other class of equity interest resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such shares consisting solely of changes in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to the second sentence of Section 9(a) above, the Executive shall become entitled to Units representing any shares other than the Common Stock, thereafter the number of such other shares represented by a Unit shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on the terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the shares contained in this Section 9, and the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the shares of Common Stock represented by the Units shall apply on like terms to any such other shares.

(e)    In case of any Change in Control, consolidation of the Company, or merger of the Company with another corporation as a result of which Common Stock is converted or modified, or in case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property, assets and business of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company shall modify the Units so as to provide the Executive with Units reflecting the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property (or cash, as applicable) that he would have owned or have been entitled to receive immediately after the happening of such Change in Control, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance had his Units immediately prior to such action actually been shares and, if applicable, other securities of the Company represented by those Units. The provisions of this Section 9(e) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

(f)    If the Company distributes rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share on the record date for the distribution, the Company shall distribute to Executive equivalent amounts of such rights or warrants as if Executive were an actual shareholder with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock equal to his outstanding Units. Such rights or warrants shall be exercisable at the same time, on the same terms and for the same price as the rights or warrants distributed to holders of the Common Stock; provided, however, that if such rights or warrants are deemed to be deferred compensation subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, such rights or warrants shall be distributed to Executive in a manner that complies with such requirements.

(g)    In case any event shall occur as to which the provisions of this Section 9 are not applicable but the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the rights represented by the Units in accordance with the essential intent and principles of this Section 9 then, in each such case, the Company shall make an adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with

the essential intent and principles established in this Section 9, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the rights represented by the Units. The Company will promptly notify the Executive of any such proposed adjustment.

(h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of Section 9 shall not apply to, and no adjustment is required to be made in respect of, any of the following: (i) the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any other rights, options or warrants that entitle the holder to subscribe for or purchase such shares (it being understood that the sole adjustment pursuant to this Section 9 in respect of the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of rights, options or warrants shall be made at the time of the issuance by the Company of such rights, options or warrants, or a change in the terms thereof); (ii) the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Company’s employees, directors or consultants pursuant to bona fide benefit plans adopted by the Company’s Board; (iii) the issuance of shares of Common Stock in a bona fide public offering pursuant to a firm commitment offering; (iv) the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to any dividend reinvestment or similar plan adopted by the Company’s Board to the extent that the applicable discount from the current market price for shares issued under such plan does not exceed 5%; and (v) the issuance of shares of Common Stock in any arm’s length transaction, directly or indirectly, to any party.

(i)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a spin-off by the Company to its shareholders, Executive’s participation in such spin-off with respect to the Units and the adjustment of the Units shall be determined in an appropriate and equitable manner, and it is the intention of the parties hereto that, to the extent practicable, such adjustment shall include an equity interest in the spin-off entity.

(j)    In the event the parties hereto cannot agree upon an appropriate and equitable adjustment to the Units, the services of an independent investment banker mutually acceptable to Executive and the Company shall (at the sole expense of the Company) be retained to determine an appropriate and equitable adjustment, and such determination shall be binding upon the parties.

(k)    Each additional Unit which results from adjustments made pursuant to this Section 9 or the Plan shall be subject to the same terms and conditions regarding vesting and forfeiture as the underlying Unit to which such additional Unit relates.

(l)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made and no action shall be taken under this Section 9 to the extent that such adjustment or action shall cause the Units to fail to comply with Section 409A of the Code or the Treasury Regulations thereunder (to the extent applicable to the Units).

10. No Right to Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Executive the right to remain in employ of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.

11. Nontransferability. This Agreement shall not be assignable or transferable by the Company (other than to successors of the Company) and this Agreement and the Units shall not

be assignable or transferable by the Executive otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and the Units may be paid out during the lifetime of the Executive only to him. More particularly, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Units may not be assigned, transferred (except as provided in the preceding sentence), pledged, or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Units contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, and any levy of any attachment or similar process upon the Units, shall be null and void and without effect.

12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains all the understandings between the parties hereto pertaining to the matters referred to herein, and supersedes all undertakings and agreements, whether oral or in writing, previously entered into by them with respect thereto. The Executive represents that, in executing this Agreement, he does not rely and has not relied upon any representation or statement not set forth herein made by the Company with regard to the subject matter, basis or effect of this Agreement or otherwise.

13. Amendment or Modification; Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived unless such amendment or modification is agreed to in writing, signed by the Executive and by a duly authorized officer of the Company, and such waiver is set forth in writing and signed by the party to be charged. No waiver by any party hereto of any breach by another party hereto of any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same time, any prior time or any subsequent time.

14. Notices. Any notice to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally, sent by courier or telecopy or registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to the party concerned at the address indicated below or to such other address as such party may subsequently give notice of hereunder in writing:

If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any party or circumstances shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to such person or circumstances, other than those to which it is so determined to be invalid and unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be validated and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

If a payment is not made by the designated payment date under the Agreement, the payment shall be made by December 31 of the calendar year in which the designated date occurs. Any payment to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a Separation from Service.
