Lender and Borrower reaffirm, consent and agree to all of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents as binding, effective and enforceable according to their stated terms, except to the extent that such Loan Documents are hereby expressly modified by this Agreement. 2. In the case of any ambiguity or inconsistency between the Loan Documents and this Agreement, the language and interpretation of this Agreement is to be deemed binding and paramount. 3. The Loan Documents (and any exhibits thereto) are hereby amended as follows: A. As to the Revolving Note: (1) The term "Conversion Date" is hereby redefined as the "Maturity Date." The Maturity Date is defined as April 30, 2004. Upon the Maturity Date, the full amount of unpaid principal, together with unpaid accrued interest, is due and payable. (2) The second paragraph of the Revolving Note is hereby amended to read as follows: Prior to January 1, 2002, this Note bore interest at the option of the Borrower, at either Lender's Prime Rate minus three-quarters of one percent or the applicable Base LIBOR Rate plus 175 basis points. Effective January 1, 2002 and ending November 14, 2002, this Note bears interest and is repayable in monthly installments of interest only (and not principal) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal at all times to either (a) the Lender's Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined) of interest in effect from time to time plus 150 basis points, each change in such E-171 fluctuating rate to take effect simultaneously with the corresponding change in such Prime Rate, without notice to the undersigned or (b) the applicable Base LIBOR Rate as defined in the Loan Agreement plus 400 basis points, at the option of the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Commencing with the receipt by Lender of Borrower's September 30, 2002 financial statements, and effective 45 days following quarter end, interest is repayable in accordance with the following at the option of Borrower, if the ratio of the Borrower's Senior Funded Debt as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, to EBITDA as more fully described below ("Ratio") is as follows:
Ratio Option -or- Option ----- ------ ------ Less than 1.5:1 Base LIBOR +225 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate - 25bp 1.5:1 - 2.5:1 Base LIBOR + 300 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate + 50 bp 2.5:1 - 3.99:1 Base LIBOR + 350 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate + 100 bp 4.1 and greater Base LIBOR + 400 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate + 150 bp
For purposes of determining a Ratio: (i) The first determination will be made by Lender for the third quarter, 2002. The determination will be made by dividing (a) the Senior Funded Debt as of September 30, 2002 by (b) the sum of the first three quarters of the Borrower's EBITDA, divided by 3, then multiplied by 4; (ii) Thereafter, each determination of the Ratio will be made by Lender on a rolling four quarter basis; and (iii)Senior Funded Debt means all indebtedness of the Borrower owing to financial institutions, all bonds, notes and debentures payable by the Borrower (unless subordinated to Fleet National Bank), all outstanding letters of credit issued for the account of the Borrower, and all capital leases of the Borrower. Each payment is to be made on the first day of each month. In no event is the interest rate to be higher than the maximum lawful rate. The Prime Rate of Lender means the fluctuating Prime Rate of interest established by Fleet National Bank from time to time whether or not such rate shall be otherwise published. The Prime Rate is established for the convenience of Lender. It is not necessarily Lender's lowest rate. In the event that there should be a change in the Prime Rate of Lender, such change shall be effective on the date of such change without notice to Borrower or any guarantor, endorser or surety. Any such change will not effect or alter any other term or conditions of this Note. E-172 (3) The third paragraph of the Revolving Note is hereby deleted in its entirety. (4) The fifth paragraph of the Revolving Note is hereby amended to read as follows: All payments on this Note shall be made in immediately available lawful money of the United States by direct charge to Borrower's deposit accounts with Lender. In addition to the provision above for direct charge of payments due, Lender is hereby authorized, at its sole discretion, to debit any other of the Borrower's accounts for payments due. This authorization shall not affect the Borrower's obligations to pay when due all amounts payable under this Note, whether or not there are sufficient funds therefor in such accounts. The foregoing authorization is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any rights of setoff. All payments shall be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due to Lender (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of outstanding principal; provided, however, that after Default, payments will be applied to the Debt of Borrower to Lender as Lender determines in its sole discretion. (5) The sixth paragraph of the Revolving Note is hereby amended to read as follows: In the event of Default, interest accrues on all amounts payable hereunder at a rate equal to five (5%) percent above the interest rate otherwise payable. Borrower acknowledges that: (i) such additional rate is material inducement to Lender to make the loans; (ii) Lender would not have made the loans evidenced by this Note in the absence of the agreement of the Borrower to pay such default rate; (iii) such additional rate represents compensation for increased risk to Lender that the loans evidenced by this Note will not be repaid; and (iv) such rate is not a penalty and represents a reasonable estimate of (a) the cost to Lender in allocating its resources (both personnel and financial) to the ongoing review, monitoring, administration and collection of the loans evidenced by this Note and (b) compensation to Lender for losses that are difficult to ascertain. (6) The seventh paragraph of the Revolving Note is hereby amended to read as follows: In the event any payment is received by Lender more than ten (10) days after the date due, the undersigned Borrower is to pay, to the extent permitted by law, Lender a late charge of five (5%) percent of the overdue payment. Any such late charge assessed is immediately due and payable. Any payment received after 3:00 P.M. on a banking day is deemed received on the next succeeding banking day. (7) The following is added to the Revolving Note: Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of this E-173 Note or other security document (and delivery of an indemnity in favor of Borrower should it be determined that the affidavit of the officer of Lender was false, materially incorrect, or the Note has been lost and a claim based upon the lost Note has been made against the Borrower), Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor. (8) The last paragraph of the Revolving Note is hereby amended to read as follows: BORROWER AND LENDER (BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS NOTE) MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF LENDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THIS NOTE OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED.

Commencing with the receipt by Lender of Borrower's September 30, 2002 financial statements, and effective 45 days thereafter from quarter end, interest is repayable in accordance with the following at the option of Borrower, if the ratio of the Borrower's Senior Funded Debt as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, to EBITDA as more fully described below ("Ratio") is as follows:
Ratio Option -or- Option ----- ------ ------ Less than 1.5:1 Base LIBOR +225 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate - 25bp 1.5:1 - 2.5:1 Base LIBOR + 300 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate + 50 bp 2.5:1 - 3.99:1 Base LIBOR + 350 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate + 100 bp 4.1 and greater Base LIBOR + 400 bp ("Libor Rate") Prime Rate + 150 bp
E-182 For purposes of determining a Ratio: (i) The first determination will be made by Lender for the third quarter, 2002. The determination will be made by dividing (a) the Senior Funded Debt as of September 30, 2002 by (b) the sum of the first three quarters of the Borrower's EBITDA, divided by 3, then multiplied by 4; (ii) Thereafter, each determination of the Ratio will be made by Lender on a rolling four quarter basis; and (iii)Senior Funded Debt means all indebtedness of the Borrower owing to financial institutions, all bonds, notes and debentures payable by the Borrower (unless subordinated to Fleet National Bank), all outstanding letters of credit issued for the account of the Borrower, and all capital leases of the Borrower. The interest rates herein provided also apply following any applicable Conversion Date. (8) Section 1.5(a) is hereby amended to read as follows: 1.5(a) Prior to January 1, 2002, at each and every Re-Set Date during the term of this Agreement, Borrower had the right to select either the LIBOR Rate, LIBOR Rate (Equipment) or variable rates set forth in Sections 1.4(a) or 1.4(c), as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement to a designated principal balance unless such principal balance was previously designated as being repayable at a LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate (Equipment), and was subject to an Interest Period which had not yet expired. Effective January 1, 2002 the applicable interest rate for the Loan is governed by the provisions of Section 1.4(k). Each interest rate from time to time so selected by Borrower is to take effect and is to end on a Re-Set Date. If Borrower does not select an interest rate by written notice given to Lender at least three (3) banking days prior to a particular Re-Set Date, the interest rate applicable to the principal balance for such Re-Set Date is to be the applicable alternate variable rate set forth in Sections 1.4(a) or 1.4(c) (prior to January 1, 2002) or Section 1.4(k) (effective January 1, 2002) of this Agreement. The LIBOR Rate, LIBOR Rate (Equipment) or variable rate selected by Borrower or otherwise designated for a particular Re-Set Date in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, are to be in effect from and including the first day of the Interest Period to which such rate pertains to, but not including, the Roll Over Date applicable to such Interest Period, and will (subject to the following provisions of this paragraph) be applicable to the portion of the principal balance of the Loan with respect to which a LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate (Equipment) are due to be re-set on such Re-Set Date, as well as to any portion of the principal balance bearing interest at a variable rate and any advance scheduled to be made on such Re-Set Date. (9) Section 1.5(b) is hereby amended to read as follows: E-183 1.5(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 1.5(a), the term "Interest Period" means the period of time during which a particular LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate (Equipment) will be applicable to all or any particular portion of the principal balance in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it being agreed that (a) each Interest Period is to commence and is to terminate on a Re-Set Date, (b) each Interest Period (for a LIBOR Rate) is to be of a duration of either one month, two months or three months (and, effective January 1, 2002, or six months) and each Interest Period for a LIBOR Rate (Equipment) is to be of a duration of either one month, two months, three months or six months (c) no Interest Period is to extend beyond the term of this Agreement or the term of an applicable portion of the Loan (whichever is earlier) and (d) the portion of the principal balance with respect to which a particular Interest Period is applicable will bear interest at the LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate (Equipment) pertaining to such Interest Period from and including the first day of such Interest Period to, but not including, the last day of such Interest Period. At no time are there to be more than three (3) Interest Periods under Loan III. At no time is the principal balance repayable during an applicable Interest Period to be less than $100,000.00. (10) The addition to Section 1.5(g) set forth in the Third Allonge to Loan and Security Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows: If any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof makes it unlawful or impossible for Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate (Equipment) or to determine same, the applicable annual interest rate for Loan III, following conversion (and prior to January 1, 2002), is the Prime Rate. (11) Except as expressly waived by this Agreement, all of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 1.9 of the Loan Agreement are applicable as of the date of this Agreement.

In the event that Lender elects to foreclose a mortgage securing any such account debtors' obligations to Borrower, Lender may record a copy or abstract of this Agreement and an affidavit of default in the public records where such mortgage is recorded. Until such time as Lender elects to exercise these rights, the Borrower is to act upon and protect the Collateral under the restrictions and terms of this Agreement only. (28) The following is added as Section 8.8: Section 8.8 Test Verifications At any time following Default and, during the continuance thereof (and, except as necessary for Lender to conduct its Collateral review, which review may be conducted any time Lender reasonably designates) Lender, without notice, in its sole and absolute discretion, may, in its name or in the name of others, make test verifications of any and all Accounts in any manner and through any medium Lender considers advisable with or without the assistance of the Borrower.

In all other cases, Lender is to give authenticated reasonable notice to Borrower and any other party entitled thereto under applicable law of the time and place of a public sale, lease, license or other disposition of the Collateral.

Section 10.5 Marshaling of Assets Lender has no obligation whatsoever to proceed first against any of the Collateral before proceeding against any other of the Collateral or other collateral for the Debt. It is expressly understood and agreed that all of the Collateral stands as equal security for the Debt and that Lender has the right to proceed against or dispose of any/or all of the Collateral or other collateral in any order as Lender, in its sole discretion, determines. (35) Section 11.4 is hereby amended to read as follows: Section 11.4 Right to Appraise 11.4(a) Lender has the right to appraise and re-appraise the Property or Collateral at any time, including, but not limited to, a Collateral review and appraisal of the Property not later than April 30, 2002. Lender also has the right to appraise and re-appraise the Property in any federally related transaction defined under Title XI of the Financial Institutions, Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, 12 U.S.C. 3310 et seq. and Section V(b) of the Bank Holding Company Act, 12 U.S.C. 1844 et seq. or upon: (i) Lender having reasonably determined that the quality of the credit shall have diminished; (ii) there occurs a material adverse change in the condition of the real estate market; (iii) Lender having reasonably determined that the condition of the said Collateral has deteriorated; and/or (iv) such reappraisal is required by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over Lender. 11.4(b) Borrower is to reimburse Lender for any reasonable fees, costs, expenses or charges incurred by Lender in engaging any such appraiser or reviewing and documenting such appraisal or reappraisal and such fees are part of the Debt, payable on demand. 11.4(c) Borrower is to (i) provide any information as reasonably requested by Lender in order to perform the appraisal or reappraisal and (ii) permit any appraiser designated by Lender to enter the Property or other location at any reasonable time for the purpose of conducting the appraisal or reappraisal. 11.4(d) Borrower agrees that all appraisals, inspections and/or reports prepared by Lender or commissioned by Lender are the E-196 exclusive property of Lender, except that Borrower will be entitled to a copy of such appraisal provided that Borrower executes such documents reasonably requested by Lender by which Borrower will, among other things, hold Lender harmless from any statements or other information contained in such appraisals or reports. Nothing contained in any such appraisal or reports constitutes a representation or warranty by Lender as to any matter or fact with respect to the Loan. The Borrower agrees that it will not use or rely upon such reports in any way, nor is the Borrower to provide the reports or any copies, summaries or outlines of same to any third party. (36) Section 11.11 is hereby amended to read as follows: Section 11.11 Applicable Law and Consent to Jurisdiction This Agreement is to be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey (without regard to the conflicts of law rules of New Jersey) except that the law of the State where the Borrower is located governs perfection and priority claims to the Collateral (except as otherwise provided in the Uniform Commercial Code). Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New Jersey and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Debt, or the subject matter hereof or thereof. Borrower hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding any claim that it is not personally subject to such jurisdiction, or any right to remove an action brought in State to Federal Court, or any claim that such suit, action or proceeding is in an inconvenient forum or that the venue thereof is improper. Borrower hereby consents that it may be served with process by the notification procedure set forth in this Agreement. (37) Section 11.12 is hereby amended to read as follows: Section 11.12 Consents The Borrower consents: 11.12(a)To any extension, postponement of time of payment, indulgence or to any substitution, exchange, release of Collateral, or to any addition to or release of any party or persons primarily or secondarily liable. 11.12(b) Following the occurrence of and during the continuance of a Default, acceptance of partial payments on any Accounts or instruments and the settlement, comprising or adjustment thereof. 11.12(c) Lender has the unrestricted right at any time or from time to time, and without Borrower's consent, to assign all or any E-197 portion of its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each, an "Assignee"), and Borrower agrees that it will execute, or cause to be executed, such documents, including, without limitation, amendments to this Agreement and to any other documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith as Lender may deem necessary to effect the foregoing. In addition, at the request of Lender and any such Assignee, Borrower is to issue one or more new promissory notes, as applicable, to any such Assignee and, if Lender has retained any of its rights and obligations hereunder following such assignment, to Lender, which new promissory notes are to be issued in replacement of but not in discharge of the liability evidenced by the promissory note held by Lender prior to such assignment and are to reflect the amount of the respective commitments and loans held by such Assignee and Lender after giving effect to such assignment. Upon the execution and delivery of appropriate assignment documentation, amendments and any other documentation required by Lender in connection with such assignment, and the payment by Assignee of the purchase price agreed to by Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee is to be deemed to be a party to this Agreement and has all of the rights and obligations of Lender hereunder (and under any and all other guaranties, documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith) to the extent that such rights and obligations have been assigned by Lender pursuant to the assignment documentation between Lender and such Assignee, and Lender is to be released from its obligations hereunder and thereunder to a corresponding extent. Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower in its possession from time to time to prospective Assignees, provided that Lender may require any such prospective Assignees to agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information. (38) Section 11.14 is hereby amended to read as follows: SECTION 11.14 WAIVE JURY TRIAL BORROWER AND LENDER (BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT) MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF LENDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO E-198 CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. BORROWER CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND MAKE THE LOAN. (39) The following is added as Section 11.16: Section 11.16 Additional Capital The Borrower hereby represents its intent to raise additional equity capital subject to verification by Lender. In the event that Borrower has not raised at least a gross amount of $10,000,000.00 of additional capital from the date of the Agreement by June 30, 2002, a fee of 35 basis points on the outstanding balance of the Loan as of June 30, 2002 is due and payable by the Borrower within thirty (30) days of quarter end, commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2002, and payable thereafter on the outstanding balance at the end of the quarter for each quarter in which the gross amount of $10,000,000.00 of additional capital (including capital raised during any preceding quarter) has not been raised. If additional capital is raised from the date of the Agreement by June 30, 2002 (including capital raised during any preceding quarter) in an amount between $10,000,001.00 and $14,999,999, a fee of 15 basis points on the outstanding balance of the Loan as of the close of such quarter is due and payable within thirty (30) days of quarter end, commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2002, and payable thereafter for each quarter in which the additional capital threshold has not been met. There is no fee due from Borrower to Lender in the event that an aggregate gross amount of capital is raised by the Borrower in excess of $15,000,000.00 from the date of the Agreement to June 30, 2002. Lender reserves the right to approve, in advance, the form and substance of any of the foregoing equity capital transactions except for common stock transactions resulting in the issuance of less than 20% of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Osteotech, Inc. and/or its Subsidiaries to be determined by Lender as of the date of the transaction at issue. All such fees payable pursuant to this Section are deemed earned when Lender is paid. E-199 (40) Section 14(a)(ii) is hereby deleted in its entirety except to the extent of the provisions of Section 1.8 hereof. (41) Exhibit "A" is hereby amended per the attached. (42) Exhibit "B" is hereby amended per the attached. E. As to the Mortgage: Paragraph 1(a)(1) is hereby amended to read as follows: (1) The principal sum of Twenty-Five Million Seven Hundred Ninety-One Thousand Five Hundred Seventy-Five Dollars ($25,791,575.00) advanced by Mortgagee to Mortgagor, with interest thereon at the rate specified in, and represented by, Mortgagor's Promissory Note(s) executed pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement dated June 10, 1999, as amended and as may be subsequently amended ("Loan Agreement"), payable to the order of Mortgagee, all Debt defined in the Loan Agreement, and any renewals, extensions and any future advances which Mortgagee, at its sole discretion, might grant from time to time, and all having the benefit of the priority of this Mortgage pursuant to N.J.S.A. 46:9-8.1 et seq., as amended, and F. As to the Assignment of Leases: The Assignment of Leases is hereby amended to refer to the Mortgage, as hereby amended. 4. Borrower represents and warrants that, except as expressly provided hereby, there are no defaults or events of default pursuant to or defined in any of the Loan Documents, as amended hereby, and that all warranties and covenants which have been made or performed by Borrower in connection with the Loan Documents were true and complete when made or performed. 5. The Loan Documents are hereby amended to provide that a default, breach or failure on the part of the Borrower to perform any covenant or condition hereunder or an event of default otherwise defined in either this Agreement or any document executed in connection with this Agreement is to be deemed an event of default for purposes of the Loan Documents. 6. Except as expressly provided hereby, all representations, warranties and covenants made by Borrower to Lender in the Loan Documents are hereby repeated as though first made expressly in this Agreement. 7. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect, in accordance with their respective terms. The parties hereto hereby expressly confirm E-200 and reaffirm all of their respective liabilities, obligations, duties and responsibilities under and pursuant to said Loan Documents and consent to the terms of this Agreement. 8. The parties agree to sign, deliver and file any additional documents and take any other actions that may reasonably be required by Lender including, but not limited to, affidavits, resolutions, or certificates for a full and complete consummation of the matters covered by this Agreement. 9. This Agreement is binding upon, inures to the benefit of, and is enforceable by the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. This Agreement is not assignable by Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender. 10. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is determined by any court or legislature to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or part either in a particular case or in all cases, such provision or part thereof is to be deemed surplusage. If that occurs, it does not have the effect of rendering any other provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable. This Agreement is to be construed and enforced as if such invalid or unenforceable provision or part thereof were omitted. 11. This Agreement may only be changed or amended by a written agreement signed by all of the parties. By the execution of this Agreement, Lender is not to be deemed to consent to any future renewal or extension of the Loan. 12. This Agreement is governed by and is to be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of New Jersey as though made and to be fully performed in New Jersey (without regard to the conflicts of law rules of New Jersey). 13. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that each has had the opportunity to consult independent counsel of their own choice, and that each has relied upon such counsel's advice concerning this Agreement, the enforceability and interpretation of the terms contained in this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions and matters covered by this Agreement. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have signed this Agreement. Witness: OSTEOTECH, INC. A Delaware Corporation /s/ Linda M. Savoca By: /s/ Michael J.
