Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Medtronic Sofamor Danek. On December 15, 2005, Regeneration Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and Medtronic Sofamor Danek USA, Inc. (“MSD”) entered into a Second Amendment and a Third Amendment to the First Amended Exclusive Distribution and License Agreement, effective April 15, 2004, between the Company and MSD which provides among other things for the Company to supply MSD with human allograft tissue and bone paste for spine surgery (the “MSD Distribution Agreement”).

 

The Second Amendment to the MSD Distribution Agreement modifies the product and pricing schedules to the MSD Distribution Agreement, with pricing modifications retroactive to July 1, 2005. The Third Amendment to the MSD Distribution Agreement provides, among other things, for MSD to release its exclusive rights to distribute the Company’s bone paste products for use in the spine effective on December 15, 2005 in exchange for cash payments from the Company to MSD over the next eight fiscal quarters, such payments contingent upon MSD achieving specified minimum revenue levels for distribution of the Company’s bone paste products. The Third Amendment also provides MSD the non-exclusive right to distribute the Company’s bone paste products for use in orthopedic and dental applications. In connection with the Third Amendment, the Company and MSD have amended and restated the MSD Distribution Agreement.

 

Exactech, Inc. On December 19, 2005, the Company and Exactech, Inc. entered into a First Amended License and Distribution Agreement with Exactech, Inc. (“Exactech”), amending the Exclusive License Agreement effective July 1, 2002 between Regeneration Technologies, Inc. and Exactech. The amended agreement with Exactech provides, among other things, for Exactech to distribute the Company’s bone paste products for use in the spine and to release its exclusive rights to distribute the Company’s bone paste products for use in orthopedic applications. The amended agreement restricts the Company from directly distributing bone paste products for oral-dental applications, provided Exactech achieves certain minimum annual performance levels throughout the term of the agreement. The amended agreement, however, does not restrict MSD from distributing the Company’s bone paste products for oral-dental applications.
