Section 2.5

Litigation

Patent Litigation:

On November 14, 2007, the Company brought a lawsuit against Gyrus Medical Inc., Gyrus ENT L.L.C. and Gyrus ACMI Inc., Case
No. 1:07-CV-00729-SLR in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, in which the Company seeks monetary damages and equitable relief for claims of patent infringement relating to U.S. Patent No. 5,697,882 (the
882 Patent). In the lawsuit, the Company alleges that the use of Gyruss PlasmaCision and PlasmaKinetic products and systems infringes the 882 Patent. Gyrus seeks invalidation of the
Companys patent based on alleged inequitable conduct and alleged prior art. This litigation is currently pending and the case has been set for trial beginning on November 2, 2009.

On May 5, 2008, Gyrus Medical Ltd. and Gyrus Group PLC commenced an arbitration proceeding against the Company. In its arbitration
notice, Gyrus alleged that, under the Settlement Agreement dated June 28, 1999 among the Company, Gyrus Medical Ltd., and Ethicon, Inc. and certain Ethicon affiliates (collectively, Ethicon), the Company had made
material changes to certain of its arthroscopy products  the Super TurboVac 90, the UltraVac, the Super MultiVac 50, the TurboVac 90XL and the MultiVac XL  and that those products infringed two Gyrus patents. Shortly
thereafter, on June 12, 2008, Ethicon and DePuy Mitek, Inc. joined the arbitration (Gyrus, Ethicon and DePuy Mitek collectively, the Claimants). The Company filed a counterclaim in the arbitration for breach of the
Settlement Agreement, alleging that Ethicon had not paid certain royalties when due under the Settlement Agreement.

On
June 10, 2009, the arbitration panel issued its interim decision and award. The panel ruled in favor of the Claimants on all issues, including the patent infringement and breach of contract claims, and against the Company on its breach of
contract counterclaim. The panel awarded the Claimants (i) $11.7 million for royalties on the patents due from April 2001 through February 2009, including pre-judgment interest of 10% through July 15, 2009; (ii) a 6.5% royalty
for all sales of the infringing products starting from March 1, 2009; and (iii) reasonable attorneys fees and costs, including the costs of the arbitration. The interim decision is attached as Exhibit B to the Petition referenced
below and attached hereto.

Gyrus and Ethicon submitted a fee request to the Company in the amount of $4.5 million. The
Company objected to the amount of this request and the parties informed the panel that they have failed to reach agreement on an attorneys fees amount and the panel has requested that both sides submit additional information to the Panel so that it
can issue a ruling on this dispute.

The Company has since filed a Petition to vacate or modify the Arbitration Award and to
stay the award. This petition was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The petition is attached hereto.

On March 4, 2009,
a derivative action was filed in Federal court in the Western District of Texas against the Companys current directors, a former director, certain of its current and former executive officers and other employees and PriceWaterhouseCoopers, LLP
alleging (i) disgorgement under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (ii) violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; (iv) abuse of control; (v) gross mismanagement of the

On April 29, 2009, a derivative action was filed in Federal court in the Southern District of Florida against the Companys
current directors and a former director alleging breach of fiduciary duty based on the Companys improper revenue recognition and its improper reporting of such revenue in Commission filings and press releases (Barron v. Baker).

financial controls over revenue recognition, allowing improper financial reporting, disseminating false financial statements, and engaging in insider trading. The case has been stayed until October 1, 2009 based on the consolidated federal
securities and derivative case.
