The Executive must advise the Company as soon as the Executive becomes eligible for health care coverage from a third party (e.g., spouse’s employer, the Executive’s subsequent employer, or any other party with a relationship with the Executive).

Termination of Employment During a CiC Period. If, during a CiC Period, the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates as a result of death, the Executive terminates his or her employment as a result of Disability or for Good Reason, or the Company terminates the Executive’s

employment without Cause, the Company shall: (A) pay or provide to the Executive the Accrued Amounts, and (B) subject to the Executive’s compliance with the covenants in Section 9 (including but not limited to the CIAA Covenants) and the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of the release described in Section 5 hereof, (i) pay to the Executive, in a cash lump sum within ten (10) days following the Release Effective Date (subject to the additional payment delays that may be required pursuant to Sections 8(b) and 8(c) below), an amount equal to 1.5 times the Severance Base Amount (the amount provided for by such product, the “CiC Severance Amount”); provided, however, that if the CiC Severance Amount could be paid to the Executive during the subsequent taxable year of the Executive rather than the Executive’s taxable year in which the Executive’s date of termination occurs based on when the Executive executes and delivers the release described in Section 5 hereof to the Company, then, to the extent that the CiC Severance Amount constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, the CiC Severance Amount shall not be paid earlier than the first business day of the later of such taxable years; and (ii) reimburse the Executive on a monthly basis for the Executive’s monthly premium payments for health care coverage under COBRA for the Executive and the Executive’s eligible dependents for a period of 12 months, provided that the Executive and, if applicable, the Executive’s eligible dependents are currently enrolled in the applicable plan(s) of the Company at the time of the Executive’s termination and that the Executive timely elects to continue the Executive’s coverage under COBRA; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to reimburse the Executive for such premiums shall cease on the date the Executive is no longer eligible to receive COBRA coverage and (ii) if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the payment of the COBRA reimbursements (in whole or in part) would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of Section 105(h) of the Code or any statute or regulation of similar effect, then in lieu of providing the COBRA reimbursements (in whole or in part), the Company may elect instead to pay the Executive on the first day of each month of such coverage period, a fully taxable cash payment equal, on an after-tax basis, to the applicable COBRA premiums (in whole or in part) for the prior month. The Executive must advise the Company as soon as the Executive becomes eligible for health care coverage from a third party (e.g., spouse’s employer, the Executive’s subsequent employer, or any other party with a relationship with the Executive).

Payments Contingent Upon Release Agreement, Compliance with Covenants. As a condition to receiving the Non-CiC Severance Amount or the CiC Severance Amount, as applicable, and the reimbursement or payment of COBRA premiums pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 hereof, the Executive will execute a general release of claims, which will also confirm any post-termination obligations and/or restrictions applicable to the Executive, in form and substance consistent with then-current practices for companies similarly situated to Parent (the “Release”). Within ten (10) days of the Executive’s date of termination, the Company shall deliver to the Executive the Release for the Executive to execute. The Executive will forfeit all rights to receive the Non-CiC Severance Amount or the CiC Severance Amount, as applicable, and the reimbursement or payment of COBRA premiums pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 hereof unless, within fifty-two (52) days of delivery of the Release by the Company to the Executive, the Executive executes and delivers the Release to the Company and such Release has become irrevocable by virtue of the expiration of the revocation period specified therein without the Release having been revoked (the first such date, the “Release Effective Date”). The Company’s obligation to pay the Non-CiC Severance Amount or the CiC Severance Amount, as applicable, or to reimburse or pay COBRA premiums pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 hereof, is subject to the occurrence of the Release Effective Date, and if the Release Effective Date does not occur, then the Company shall have no obligation to make such payments or reimbursements. Any reimbursements or payments of COBRA premiums pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 hereof that would otherwise have become due prior to the Release Effective Date shall be paid in a cash lump sum within ten (10) days following the Release Effective Date; provided, that if any reimbursements or

payments of COBRA premiums pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 hereof could be paid to the Executive during a different taxable year of the Executive than the Executive’s taxable year in which the Executive’s date of termination occurs based on when the Executive executes and delivers the Release to the Company, then, to the extent that the reimbursements constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, the reimbursement amounts shall not be paid earlier than the first business day of the later of such taxable years. In the event the Company reasonably believes that the Executive has breached one or more of the covenants in Section 9 (including but not limited to the CIAA Covenants), the Company shall notify the Executive and provide reasonably detailed information supporting its belief and the Company and the Executive shall discuss in good faith the resolution thereof. Subject to Section 10(d), if it is determined that the Executive has breached one or more covenants in Section 9 (including but not limited to the CIAA Covenants), the Executive shall forfeit the Executive’s right to receive the Non-CiC Severance Amount or the CiC Severance Amount, as applicable, and the reimbursement or payment of COBRA premiums pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 hereof, and, to the extent such amounts have been paid to the Executive, shall repay to the Company the after-tax amount of any such previously paid amounts.

The provisions set forth in Sections 6(a), (b), (c) and (d) below shall apply with respect to (a) the time-based vesting portion of all stock options of the Company (“Time-Based Stock Options” or “Options”) granted to the Executive, (b) all time-based vesting shares of restricted stock of the Company (“Time-Based Restricted Stock” or “TBRS”) granted to the Executive, and (c) all time-based vesting restricted stock units of the Company (“Time-Based RSU” or “TBRSU”) granted to the Executive, in each case, whether the applicable Options, TBRS and/or TRBSU are issued under (i) the 2012 LTIP, (ii) the SeaSpine 2015 Plan, or (iii) any other future or successor Company plan or standalone award agreements. Such provisions shall supersede and override any conflicting provisions set forth in applicable award agreements of the Company governing applicable grants, and shall be incorporated by reference into the terms of such award agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions in Section 6(a), (b), (c) and (d) below shall not apply with respect to the equity-based compensation grants made to the Executive pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635(c)(4) in connection with his inducement to become employed by the Company.

Termination of Service in Non-Acceleration Circumstances. If, prior to vesting, the Executive’s Service is terminated for any reason other than a circumstance providing for accelerated vesting pursuant to any of Sections 6(b)-(f) below, the unvested portion of the applicable Option, TBRS, or TBRSU shall be cancelled and revert back to the Company as of the date of such termination of Service, and the Executive shall have no further right or interest therein unless the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion shall determine otherwise. In such event, the Executive shall have the right, subject to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the applicable plan, to exercise such Option, to the extent it has vested as of the date of such termination of Service, at any time within three (3) months after the date of such termination of Service, subject to the earlier expiration of the Option on the ten (10)-year anniversary of grant or such other term as is provided in the applicable equity award agreement otherwise governing such grant (the “Expiration Date”).

and become immediately exercisable in full and (ii) any TBRS and any TBRSU shall automatically vest in full. The full portion of any unexercised Option shall remain exercisable by the Executive (or any person entitled to do so) at any time within eighteen (18) months after the date of such termination of Service, subject to the earlier expiration of such Option on the Expiration Date. To the extent such Option is not exercised within such period, such Option shall be cancelled and revert back to the Company, and the Executive or any permitted transferee pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreement, as applicable, shall have no further right or interest therein.

In the event that the employment of the Executive with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for CiC Period Good Reason, in each case during a CiC Period (including, for the avoidance of doubt, following a Potential CiC Date but before the applicable Change in Control has been consummated), (i) the Executive’s then-outstanding Options shall be fully vested and may be exercised in full, to the extent applicable, beginning on the date of such termination and for the thirty six (36)-month period immediately following such termination (subject to the earlier expiration of the Option on the Expiration Date) or for such longer period as the Compensation Committee shall determine, and (ii) the unvested portion of the Executive’s then outstanding TBRS and TBRSU shall be fully vested (and the shares subject to any such TBRSU shall be delivered no later than sixty (60) days following such termination of Service). Such outstanding Options, TBRS, and TBRSU shall otherwise be treated in accordance with the default rules applicable under Section 17 of the 2012 LTIP as in effect on the Effective Date (or if made pursuant to a successor long-term incentive plan or inducement plan, the default rules contained in such plan).

Survival. All of the provisions in this Section 6 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason (unless such termination is as a result of a future novation of such provisions entered into by each of the parties).

Section 280G. In the event that any of the severance payments and other benefits provided by this Agreement or otherwise payable to the Executive (a) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (b) but for this Section 7, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (“Excise Tax”), then the Executive’s severance payments and benefits under this Agreement or otherwise shall be payable either in full or in such lesser amount which would result in no portion of such severance payments or benefits being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by the Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of severance payments and benefits under this Agreement or otherwise, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such severance payments or benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Any reduction in the severance payments and benefits required by this Section 7 shall be made in the following order: (i) reduction of cash payments; (ii) reduction of accelerated vesting of equity awards other than stock options; (iii) reduction of accelerated vesting of stock options; and (iv) reduction of other benefits paid or provided to the Executive. The calculations and establishment of assumptions in this Section 7 will be performed by a professional tax firm engaged by the Company as of the day prior to the applicable CiC Date. If the tax firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the acquiring company, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized tax firm to make the determinations required by this Section 7. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such firm required to be made by this Section 7. The Company and the Executive shall furnish such tax firm such information and documents as the tax firm may reasonably request in order to make its required determination. The tax firm will provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and the Executive as soon as practicable following its engagement. Any good faith determinations of the tax firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and the Executive. However, the Executive shall have the final authority to make any good faith determination(s) associated with the assumptions used by the tax firm in providing its calculations, and such good faith determination by the Executive shall be binding on the Company. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Sections 409A, 280G or 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the professional tax firm described in this Section 7, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or other agency will claim that an Excise Tax greater than that amount, if any, determined by such professional firm for the purposes of this Section 7 is due (the “Additional Excise Tax”). The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the IRS or other agency that, if successful, would require payment of Additional Excise Tax. The Executive and the Company shall each reasonably cooperate with the other in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings concerning the existence or amount of liability for Excise Tax with respect to payments made or due to the Executive. The Company shall pay all reasonable fees, expenses and penalties of the Executive relating to a claim by the IRS or other agency. In the event it is finally determined that a further reduction would have been required under this Section 7 to place the Executive in a better after-tax position, the Executive shall repay the Company such amount within 30 days thereof in order to effect such result.

Section 409A.

For purposes of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) (i) each “payment” (as defined by Section 409A) made under this Agreement shall be considered a “separate payment,” and (ii) payments shall be deemed exempt from the definition of deferred compensation under Section 409A to the fullest extent possible under (x) the “short-term deferral” exemption of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(4), and (y) with respect to amounts paid as separation pay (as defined under Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(m)) no later than the second calendar year following the calendar year containing the Executive’s

“separation from service” (as defined for purposes of Section 409A), the “two years/two-times” separation pay exemption of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), which exemptions are hereby incorporated by reference.

Any payments otherwise payable under this Agreement shall not commence until the Executive has a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A). Furthermore, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of a payment or benefit that is characterized as deferred compensation under Section 409A, and pursuant to which payment or settlement is triggered based on a Change in Control, in no event will a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred for purposes of such payment or settlement if the transaction is not also a “change in the ownership or effective control of” the Company or “a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of” the Company as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (without regard to any alternative definition thereunder).

If the Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A (and as applied according to procedures of the Company and its affiliates) as of the Executive’s separation from service, to the extent any payment under this Agreement constitutes deferred compensation (after taking into account any applicable exemptions from Section 409A) that is payable upon a separation from service, and to the extent required in order to avoid the imposition of an excise tax or penalties under Section 409A, no payments due under this Agreement may be made until the earlier of: (1) the date of the Executive’s death and (2) the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s separation from service, provided, however, that any payments delayed during this six-month period shall be paid in the aggregate in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s separation from service (or upon the date of the Executive’s death, if earlier).

Any expense reimbursements or in kind benefits under this Agreement that constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, without limitation, that: (i) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year; (ii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Additional Covenants.

Confidentiality, Inventions Assignment and Other Matters. The parties hereby incorporate by reference the CIAA into this Agreement. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the CIAA Covenants are material provisions of this Agreement and that a material breach of the CIAA Covenants shall be a material breach of this Agreement, and that the payment rights set forth in Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement are subject to compliance with the CIAA Covenants, as further described in such respective sections.

Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees that the Company’s reputation and goodwill in the marketplace is of utmost importance and value to the Company. The Executive further agrees that during, and for 18 months after, the term of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive will not purposefully make or publish, directly or indirectly, any public statement disparaging the Company or any of its directors or officers who held such offices at the time of Executive’s termination. A disparaging statement is any written communication (including via an online, digital, or social media

platform) that attacks the Company’s products, services, or business policies and/or is intended to undermine the Company’s reputation. The Executive further understands and agrees that this Section 9(b) is a material provision of this Agreement and that any material breach of this Section 9(b) shall be a material breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Executive from (i) discussing or disclosing information about unlawful, unethical or improper acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that the Executive has reason to believe is unlawful, unethical or improper, (ii) cooperating in any investigation or providing testimony in legal proceedings (whether administrative or judicial), or (iii) making truthful statements in connection with the Executive’s enforcement of his rights against the Company, whether under contract, statutory, or common law. Further, and consistent with Section 10(b), this Section 9(b) is not intended to prevent Executive from exercising any other rights protected by law, including the right to communicate with former coworkers and/or third parties about terms and conditions of employment or labor disputes, unrelated to the amount of severance pay under this Agreement, when the communication is not so disloyal, reckless, or maliciously untrue as to lose the protection of the law.

Cooperation. The Executive agrees that, for 18 months after the Executive’s date of termination, the Executive shall make himself of herself available at reasonable times, intervals and places for interviews, consultations, internal investigations and/or testimony during which the Executive shall provide to the Company, or its designated attorneys or agents, any and all information known to the Executive regarding or relating to the Company or the Executive’s activities on behalf of the Company pertaining to the subject matter on which the Executive’s cooperation is sought.

Miscellaneous.

Employment At-Will. The Executive agrees and understands that nothing in this Agreement shall change the Executive’s “at-will” employment status or confer any right with respect to continuation of employment with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with the Executive’s right or the Company’s right to terminate the Executive’s employment at any time, with or without cause, either at the Executive’s or the Company’s option, with or without notice.

Permitted Disclosures. The Executive understands that nothing contained in this Agreement restricts or limits the Executive’s right to discuss the Executive’s employment or report possible violations of law or regulation with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, United States Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or other federal government agency or similar state or local agency or to discuss the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment with others to the extent permitted by Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act or to the extent that such disclosure is protected under the applicable provisions of law or regulation, including but not limited to “whistleblower” statutes or other similar provisions that protect such disclosure. Additionally, the Executive understands that, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 1833(b), the Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made: (1) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (2) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. If the Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, the Executive may disclose such trade secret to the Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in related court proceedings, provided that Employee files any document containing the trade secret information under seal and does not further disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, construed, interpreted, and its validity determined under the laws of the state in which the Executive resides (the “Governing Law State”), as applied to agreements entered into and to be fully performed by residents of such Governing Law State. Such law of the Governing Law State shall govern regardless of the forum in which a dispute may be adjudicated. Subject to Section 10(d) hereof, all actions or proceedings for injunctive relief arising out of this Agreement shall exclusively be heard and determined in state or federal courts in the Governing Law State having appropriate jurisdiction. The parties expressly consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such action or proceeding and waive any objection to venue therein and any defense of forum non conveniens.

Dispute Resolution. The parties hereby incorporate by reference the Dispute Resolution Agreement into this Agreement and agree that any and all disputes arising under this Agreement are subject to and governed by the Dispute Resolution Agreement; provided, however, that the parties reserve the right to seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in court, in which case the parties agree that such injunctive relief shall be granted in court to preserve the status quo pending a resolution on the merits in arbitration. The Executive agrees that in connection with any application for injunctive relief, discovery shall be conducted on an expedited basis. The Executive further agrees that, in any proceeding alleging breach of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to conduct forensic examinations of any computers and/or electronic devices in the Executive’s possession or control, if the Company reasonably believes such devices contain Confidential Information (as defined in the Dispute Resolution Agreement).

Remedies. The Executive acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement will cause immediate and irreparable injury and unquantifiable damage to the Company. If the Executive breaches, or the Company reasonably believes the Executive is about to breach, this Agreement, the Executive agrees that the Company is entitled to immediate injunctive relief enforcing the terms of this Agreement without the necessity of posting a bond, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity. The Executive and the Company agree that in any legal proceeding to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement of its actual costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

Assignment. The Executive agrees that, should the Company be acquired by, merge with, or otherwise combine with another corporation or business entity, the surviving entity will have all rights to enforce the terms of this Agreement as if it were the Company itself enforcing the Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may not assign this Agreement or any part hereof. Any purported assignment by the Executive shall be null and void from the initial date of purported assignment.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, then the Agreement will be deemed amended to the extent necessary to render the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision, and the rest of the Agreement, valid and enforceable. If a court or other adjudicator declines to amend the Agreement, the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall be enforced as if the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had not been included in this Agreement.

Waiver. A waiver by the Company of a breach of any provisions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach, nor shall recourse to any remedy hereunder be a

waiver of any other or further relief or remedy. No waiver will be effective unless made in writing and signed by an officer of the Company.

Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise stated herein, this Agreement, together with the CIAA, the Dispute Resolution Agreement and, if applicable, the Offer Letter, set forth the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and the Executive with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement (including but not limited to severance payments and benefits), and supersedes and replaces all prior understandings and agreements regarding the same, whether written or oral. This Agreement can only be amended or modified in a writing signed by both parties. Any subsequent change(s) in the Executive’s duties, salary, compensation, or benefits will not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement, including the at-will nature of employment as described in Section 10(a). The Company’s and the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment regardless of the manner of such termination. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, assigns, affiliated entities, and any party-in-interest.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed by a party to this Agreement shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Notices. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) when personally delivered or (ii) when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, on the third business day after such mailing, or (iii) when sent by express U.S. mail or overnight delivery through a national delivery service (or an international delivery service in the case of an address outside the U.S.) with signature required, on the next business day after such sending. Notice to the Company shall be directed to the attention of the Chief Legal Officer of the Company at the address of the Company’s headquarters, and notice to the Executive shall be directed to the Executive at the Executive’s most recent personal residence on file with the Company.

Taxes and Withholdings. The Company shall deduct from the amounts payable to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement all required withholding amounts and deductions, including but not limited to federal, state and local withholding amounts in accordance all applicable laws and regulations and deductions authorized by the Executive. Except to the extent otherwise set forth herein, the Executive shall be solely responsible for and shall pay all taxes (other than the employer-paid portion of any employment taxes) associated with the amounts payable under this Agreement.
