non-exclusive distribution arrangement in any Region, Biomatrix shall have the
right to distribute the Agreement Product and Improved Agreement Product and/or
engage another distributor for such Region. Biomatrix will give Distributor [
*** ] days notice prior to appointing a third party distributor for such Region.
From and after the date of a conversion to a non-exclusive distribution
arrangement within a Region, the Distributor shall lose its rights hereunder to
register, promote, market, sell and distribute within such Region any Improved
Agreement Product(s) commercialized on or after such date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Distributor shall retain the exclusive rights in all trademarks
under which the Distributor launched the Agreement Product or any Improved
Agreement Product(s) in such Region. Upon conversion of Distributor's rights to
a non-exclusive distribution arrangement in any Region in the European
Territory, the arrangements between the parties under this Agreement shall no
longer be governed by this Agreement and such Region shall no longer be deemed a
part of the Territory, but rather, such Region shall become the subject of a new
agreement between the parties upon the same terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement. Upon such conversion to a non-exclusive arrangement, the parties
agree to execute such further documents and agreements as are necessary in order
to give effect to the provisions of this Section.

         2.4. Expansion of Territory. One or more countries may be added to the

the proposed arrangements for the registration, promotion, marketing, sale and
distribution of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) by

Distributor or one of its subdistributors prior to appointing a third party
distributor of the Agreement Product in any additional country.

         3. TERM AND TERMINATION.

         3.1. Effective Date. This Agreement shall take effect as of the
Effective Date.

         3.2. Term.

         (a) Unless this Agreement is sooner terminated, in its entirety or as
to a country or Region in the Territory in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement, the term of the appointment hereunder for a country in the
Territory shall commence on the first day of the first Agreement Year for such
country and shall end on the last day of the tenth (10th) Agreement Year for
such country (the "Initial Term").

         (b) Unless this Agreement is sooner terminated, in its entirety or as
to any Region in the Territory in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, the appointment of the Distributor hereunder as exclusive distributor
of the Agreement Product for each Region in the Territory shall be renewable by
the Distributor, at its option, upon written notice to Biomatrix received at
least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial Term for such Region, for
an additional consecutive term of five (5) years following the date of
expiration of the Initial Term for such Region, provided that the Distributor
shall only be entitled to exercise such renewal option with respect to any
Region if as of the date of expiration of the Initial Term for such Region the
Distributor is not in material breach of any of its obligations under this
Agreement with respect to any Region (it being understood that any payment
default by Distributor under this Agreement will be deemed a default as to the
entire Territory). Thereafter, the appointment of the Distributor as exclusive
distributor of the Agreement Product for such Region shall be renewable upon the
expiration of such additional five (5) year term, upon written notice to
Biomatrix received at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of such term for
such Region, for one additional consecutive renewal term of five (5) years,
provided that, as of the date of expiration of the first renewal term for such
Region, the Distributor is not in material breach of any of its obligations
under this Agreement with respect to any Region (it being understood that any
payment default by Distributor under this Agreement will be deemed a default as
to the entire Territory). For the avoidance of any doubt, the Distributor's
rights with respect to any Improved Agreement Product(s) commercialized after
the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date shall terminate upon the tenth
anniversary of the Effective Date. Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
Distributor shall have the right to continue to sell the Agreement Product and
any Improved Agreement Products it is then currently selling.

         (c) This Agreement may be terminated with respect to any country in the
Territory by either party, by written notice to the other party, in the event
that (i) a mutual decision not to Launch the Agreement Product in such country
is reached or (ii) a Launch is not commenced with respect to such country within
thirty (30) days after the time period set forth on Exhibit B.

         (d) In the event that in any Agreement Year commencing with the third
Agreement Year (and so long as (i) no force majeure condition of the Distributor
exists at such time pursuant to Section 20, (ii) Biomatrix has met its supply
obligations under Section 7.4, and (iii) Distributor is able to lawfully sell
the Agreement product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in each of the
countries within any such Region), the Distributor's (and its Affiliates' or
Subdistributors', as applicable) Net Retail Sales of the Agreement Product and
any Improved Agreement Product(s) in any Region comprise less than seven and
one-half percent (7-1/2%) of its Net Retail Sales in such Region of all Dermal
Tissue Augmentation Products, including the Agreement Product and any Improved
Agreement Product(s), the Distributor's distribution rights (including, without
limitation, its right to use the Trademarks) under this Agreement for the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in such Region shall
terminate upon 90 days notice, but in any event no later than 120 days after the
end of the applicable Agreement Year, to Distributor from Biomatrix; provided,
however, that Distributor may within thirty (30) days after receipt of any such
notice from Biomatrix, cure a shortfall of Net Retail Sales with respect to a
Region in the Territory, other than Regions in the European Territory, Australia
and Canada, for an Agreement Year by paying to Biomatrix an amount equal to
twenty-five percent (25%) of the total dollar amount of any such shortfall of
Net Retail Sales in such Agreement Year for such Region (such amount the "Cure
Amount"); further provided that with respect to any Region in the Territory, at
Biomatrix's election, Biomatrix may refuse to allow such cure if Distributor has
taken advantage of such cure provision with respect to such Region in each of
the two preceding Agreement Years.

By way of example, if Distributor's Net Retail Sales of all Dermal Tissue
Augmentation Products in a Region in a given Agreement Year [$10,000,] and
Distributor's Net Retail Sales of the Agreement Product in such Region in such
Agreement Year were $500, then Distributor could cure such shortfall and prevent
termination by paying Biomatrix $62.50. Distributor may cure a shortfall of Net
Retail Sales with respect to Regions in the European Territory, Australia or
Canada in an Agreement Year by paying the Cure Amount to Biomatrix with respect
to any such Region for such Agreement Year as provided above; provided, however,
that in exchange for such Cure Amount Biomatrix will supply Distributor with an
amount of units of the Agreement Product purchasable for such Cure Amount at the
applicable Minimum Price or Formula Price for the applicable Agreement Year for
such Region; further provided that with respect to any such Region, at
Biomatrix's election, Biomatrix may refuse to allow such cure if Distributor has
taken advantage of such cure provision w/respect to such Region in each of the
two preceding Agreement Years. Upon any such termination of the Distributor's
distribution rights in a Region, the Distributor's obligation to pay any
royalties pursuant to Sections 8.1 and 8.2 for any sales in such Region after
such termination shall cease, but the Distributor shall remain obligated to pay
all such royalties for sales in such Region accrued prior to such termination.

         (e) If the Distributor's rights to distribute the Agreement Product and
any Improved Agreement Product(s) in any country in the European Territory shall
terminate solely pursuant to subsection (d) above, Biomatrix agrees to sell the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) developed before the
date of such termination to the Distributor a price not greater than the price
paid by another distributor appointed in such country in the European territory,
for the period of time equal to the period that would have remained in the
Initial Term in such country had the Distributor's distribution rights not
terminated.

         3.3. Inventory.

         (a) Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Biomatrix shall
have the right (but not the obligation) to repurchase all or part of the
inventory of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) held by
the Distributor or its Affiliates or Subdistributors.

         (b) The price for inventory to be repurchased by Biomatrix pursuant to
Section 3.3(a) above shall be the landed cost thereof actually paid by the
Distributor to Biomatrix. With respect to any quantities not repurchased by
Biomatrix, the Distributor shall have the

right to sell such inventory of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement
Product(s), in its usual and customary manner, in the ordinary course of
business, for a period of six (6) months following termination of this Agreement
and notwithstanding such termination the terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall apply to such sales.

         3.4. Insolvency. This Agreement may be immediately terminated as to the
entire Territory by either party, upon giving written notice to the other party,
in the event that the other party shall become insolvent or be declared bankrupt
by a court of competent jurisdiction or shall be the subject of any
reorganization (other than a corporate reorganization effected in the ordinary
course of business and not arising out of any insolvency) or winding up,
receivership or dissolution, bankruptcy or liquidation proceeding, or any
proceeding or action similar to one or more of the above, in which case
termination shall be effective upon such written notice. The failure of either
party to give notice of termination upon obtaining knowledge of any such event
shall not be interpreted as a waiver of such party's rights under this Section
3.4, and such party reserves the right to exercise any such rights at any time
after the occurrence of any such event.

         3.5. Breach. This Agreement may be terminated as to the entire
Territory by either party if the other party shall breach any of its payment
obligations hereunder or with respect to any Region if Distributor (or its
Affiliates or Subdistributors, as applicable) shall commit a material breach of
any of its warranties, covenants, conditions, obligations or agreements
contained herein with respect to such Region, provided that such breach shall
continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof and
provided further that such termination shall be immediately effective upon
further written notice to that effect to the breaching party after its failure
to cure such breach within such applicable notice period. For avoidance of
doubt, the parties agree that if a Launch is not reached with respect to a
country within thirty days after the time period set forth on Exhibit B, then
either party may terminate this Agreement with respect to such country (provided
that such failure to reach a Launch is not caused by a force majeure condition
of the Distributor or Biomatrix's failure to meet its supply obligations under
Section 7.4).

         3.6. Certain Rights Upon Termination. Upon termination of this
Agreement for any reason whatsoever, Biomatrix shall have the following rights,
or if such termination is as to a country in the Territory in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement, Biomatrix shall have the following rights in
such country:

         (a) Biomatrix shall have the unrestricted right to review, access, use
and permit others to review, access and use, either directly or by

disseminated by Distributor publicly to customers and patients and all
information required to be provided to Biomatrix by law, information relating to
laboratory, animal and human studies, and related regulatory approvals
pertaining to the Agreement Product or any Improved Agreement Product(s) (the
"Information") which are possessed or controlled by the Distributor or any of
its Affiliates or Subdistributors, or to which the Distributor or any of its
Affiliates or Subdistributors has a right to review, access or use.

                                      -12-


The  Distributor  unconditionally agrees promptly to take any action and
to execute and deliver to Biomatrix any documents or instruments reasonably
requested by Biomatrix to permit Biomatrix to make full use of such unrestricted
right.

         (b) Further, Biomatrix shall have exclusive ownership rights to the
Trademarks and to all other product specific logos, slogans and other
intangibles used by the Distributor solely in association with the independent
sale of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) (including
all registrations relating thereto) possessed or controlled by the Distributor
or any of its Affiliates or Subdistributors, and the Distributor unconditionally
agrees, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(b), (i) immediately upon
termination to cease using the Trademarks and any such logos, slogans, and
marketing rights of Biomatrix or any imitations thereof and (ii) immediately to
execute and deliver to Biomatrix any documents or instruments reasonably
requested by Biomatrix to give full effect to the provisions of this Section
3.6; provided, however, if the Distributor maintains a license to distribute the
Agreement Product(s) in (a) two Regions, (b) one Region in the European
Territory or (c) in the United States, then Distributor shall retain the
exclusive rights in the Trademarks in the entire Territory.

         (c) In addition, the Distributor unconditionally agrees, subject to the
provisions of Section 3.3(b), that it shall, upon the request of Biomatrix,
immediately inform all relevant regulatory authorities that the Distributor (or
its Affiliate or Subdistributor) is no longer a distributor of the Agreement
Product or the Improved Agreement Product(s) and shall take all action and
execute and deliver all documents and instruments necessary in order to transfer
to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law all registrations and
Product License Approvals, or applications therefor, for the Agreement Product
or any Improved Agreement Product(s) to Biomatrix or any Person nominated by
Biomatrix.

         3.7. Effects of Termination.

         (a) Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Distributor
shall immediately discontinue making any representations regarding its status as
a distributor for Biomatrix and shall immediately cease conducting any
activities with respect to the marketing, promotion, sale or distribution of the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s), provided, however, that
the Distributor shall be permitted to sell inventory not repurchased by
Biomatrix in accordance with Section 3.3.

         (b) Termination of this Agreement shall not affect obligations of
either party that may have accrued prior to the effective date of termination.
Subject to Clause 3.8 below, termination of this Agreement shall be in addition
to, and shall not be exclusive of or prejudicial to, any other grounds for
termination or rights or remedies at law or in equity which either party may
have on account of any default of the other party.

         3.8. Waiver. The Distributor (for itself and on behalf of its
Affiliates and Subdistributors) hereby waives, to the extent it is able to do so
under the law of 


<PAGE>   13
                                      -13-


every country in the Territory and other applicable law, any statutory rights it
may have or acquire in respect of the termination of the relationship
established hereby pursuant to the terms hereof, and agrees that the rights
available to it hereunder in the event of such termination are adequate and
reflect the agreement of the parties. The Distributor shall not have any right
to claim any indemnity for goodwill or lost profits or any damages arising from
the rightful termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.

         4. PAYMENTS. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Payments
to Biomatrix shall be wired to an account designated by Biomatrix and the costs
of any such remittance shall be borne by the Distributor. All amounts (except
for the Minimum Price, which shall be denominated in Dollars) denominated in

of exchange for the relevant period as published in The Wall Street Journal (or,
if The Wall Street Journal shall no longer publish such exchange rates, as
determined by a method that is mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties).

         5. WITHHOLDING. All payments to be made by the Distributor under this
Agreement shall be made in full, free and clear of and without any deduction of
or withholding for or on account of any taxes levied in any country of the
Territory or elsewhere; provided that if the Distributor shall be required by
law to make any deduction or withholding from any payment to Biomatrix then:

         (a) the Distributor shall ensure that such deduction or withholding
does not exceed the minimum legal liability therefor; and

         (b) not later than five (5) days before each deduction or withholding
of any taxes, the Distributor shall forward to Biomatrix such documentary
evidence as may be required by Biomatrix in respect of the proposed deduction,
withholding or payment; and

         (c) prior to any deduction or withholding the parties shall attempt in
good faith to agree upon revised mutually acceptable pricing and/or payment
terms.

         6. TRADEMARKS; AGREEMENT PRODUCT MARKING; PROMOTIONAL INFORMATION.

         6.1. Trademarks. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.6, Biomatrix
hereby licenses to the Distributor the right to use, and hereby requires solely
in association with the independent sale by the Distributor of the Agreement
Product and any Improved Agreement Products the use of, the Trademarks in the
Territory during the term of this Agreement. The Distributor warrants that it
shall not use any of the Trademarks at any time outside the Territory or use any
of the Trademarks for any products other than the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Product(s) within the Territory. The Distributor shall not
use a trademark or other mark (other than a Trademark) in connection with its
distribution of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Products unless

Trademark as defined herein. 


<PAGE>   14
                                      -14-


Biomatrix shall prosecute, maintain and defend the Trademarks throughout the
Term of this Agreement in all countries in the Territory in which the
Distributor, any of its Affiliates or any Subdistributor is selling the
Agreement Product and/or any Improved Agreement Product. The parties shall
execute a short form Trademark assignment agreement to the extent that it is
necessary to record the Trademark license under this Section 6.1 in any country
whose laws require any such registration.

         6.2. Termination of Right to Use Trademarks. Subject to the sell-out
right of Section 3.3(b) and except as otherwise provided in Section 3.6, upon
termination of this Agreement, the license to use the Trademarks in the
Territory shall terminate, and the Distributor unconditionally agrees promptly
to take all necessary action and execute and deliver to Biomatrix all necessary
documents and instruments to remove the Distributor as a registered user and/or
a recorded licensee of the Trademarks. In the event that the Distributor fails
promptly upon written request by Biomatrix to comply with any of its agreements
in the preceding sentence of this Section 6.2, the Distributor hereby
irrevocably consents to Biomatrix's taking any action necessary to give effect
to such agreements.

         6.3. Notice. Each party hereto agrees promptly to notify the other in
writing of any infringements or imitations of the Trademarks by third parties
which may come to its attention.

         6.4. Labelling and Promotional Materials; Approved Use of Product.

         (a) The Distributor shall provide Biomatrix with labelling masters,
instructions, specifications and copies of all marketing, labelling and
promotional material it intends to use relating to the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Product(s). All such labelling, packaging and promotional
material shall be consistent with the relevant Product License Approvals and all
labelling and packaging materials shall be reviewed by Biomatrix and shall be
subject to its written approval prior to use, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld. Biomatrix shall communicate its acceptance or rejection
of such labelling, packaging and any major promotional materials that include
claims or items impacting regulatory approvals within [ *** ] of its receipt
thereof and if no such communication is received by Distributor from Biomatrix
within such [ *** ] Biomatrix shall be deemed to have accepted. Distributor
shall provide Biomatrix with all major promotional materials for launches and
subsequent promotions within a reasonable time prior to their use in order to
allow Biomatrix to comment on such materials. Distributor shall provide
Biomatrix with copies of all other promotional materials at or prior to their
use.

         (b) The Distributor agrees that its (and its Affiliates' and
Subdistributors') promotion, marketing, sale and distribution of the Agreement
Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in the Territory, and the
promotional materials and labelling used in connection therewith, shall be

[ *** ,] or unless agreed to in writing by Biomatrix.

         6.5. Legend. Subject to applicable laws and regulations in the

         6.6. Promotional Support. Biomatrix and the Distributor (and its

and without charge (to the extent not prevented by law or contract from doing
so) all medical information relating to the Agreement Product and any Improved
Agreement Product(s) (including summary data from studies, clinical trials and
the like as well as information regarding adverse events associated with the use
of the Agreement Product), the proceedings of all symposia on the Agreement
Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) and all promotional information
that is available to such party relating to the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Product(s). In addition, Biomatrix and the Distributor (and
its Affiliates and Subdistributors) shall provide each other with access to such
primary data and information in its possession as the other may reasonably
request regarding the results of the studies contained in such summary data
referred to above.

         6.7 Joint Coordinating Committee. Upon the execution of this Agreement,
Biomatrix and the Distributor shall establish a joint coordinating committee
(the "Committee") to review all matters relating to product labelling, product
claims, regulatory matters or clinical trials. The Committee shall consist of an
equal number, not to [ *** ,] of voting representatives from each of Biomatrix
and the Distributor and shall meet [ *** .] In the event of a dispute between
representatives of Biomatrix and the Distributor on the Committee, a senior
representative of each such party shall be appointed to resolve such dispute,
and in the event such senior representatives are unable to resolve the matter,
Biomatrix's view shall prevail over the Distributor's.

         6.8 Recalls of the Agreement Product.

         (a) If either party in good faith determines that a recall of the
Agreement Product in any country in the Territory is warranted, such party shall
immediately notify the other party in writing and shall advise such other party
of the reasons underlying its determination that a recall is warranted. The
parties shall consult with each other as to any action to be

   Securities and Exchange Commission.

<PAGE>   16
                                      -16-


taken in regard to such a recall, but in any event if after consultations either
party in good faith still believes that such a recall should be undertaken, the
parties shall cooperate in carrying out such recall.

         (b) Except as otherwise provided in (c) below, in the event of a recall
of the Agreement Product, Biomatrix shall correct any deficiency relating to its
manufacturing, packaging, testing, labelling, storing or handling of the
Agreement Product for which it is responsible, if applicable, and shall at its
cost replace the Agreement Product recalled.

         (c) Biomatrix shall reimburse Distributor for all direct costs and
expenses (including without limitation shipping, quality control testing and
notification costs) incurred by Distributor and its Affiliates as a result of
any recall, except where such recall (i) is the result of the failure of
Distributor or its Affiliates or Subdistributors to comply with their
obligations under this Agreement and/or (ii) was opposed by Biomatrix and proved
to be unwarranted, in which case Distributor shall reimburse Biomatrix for all
direct costs and expenses (including without limitation shipping, quality
control testing and notification costs) incurred by Biomatrix and its Affiliates
as a result of such recall.

         6.9. Product Vigilance System. The Distributor shall be responsible for
maintaining medical device vigilance systems, as established for the Agreement

         7. SUPPLY OF AGREEMENT PRODUCT.

         7.1. General; Fee.

         (a) Biomatrix agrees to sell the Agreement Product and any Improved
Agreement Product(s) to the Distributor, on the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth herein, for resale by the Distributor within the Territory,
and the Distributor shall obtain the Agreement Product and any Improved

Affiliates. Biomatrix shall not sell the Agreement Product or any Improved
Agreement Product(s) itself or supply or license the manufacture of the
Agreement Product or any Improved Agreement Product(s) to any third party for
resale within the Territory, provided that Biomatrix's obligations under this
sentence shall be subject to (i) applicable law, including without limitation EU

[ *** ,] the Distributor shall pay to Biomatrix a fee in the amount of five
million Dollars (US$5,000,000) in cash or by wire transfer on the execution of
this Agreement by the parties hereto. Such fee shall not be refundable in whole
or part.

         7.2. Price; Adjustment; Reports; Payment.

         (a) The parties shall attempt in good faith to agree in writing, prior
to the Launch in each country, upon mutually acceptable supply pricing for the
Distributor's purchase of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement
Product(s), but such pricing in any event shall not be less than the greater of
(i) the Minimum Price, or (ii) the Formula Price, except as provided in
subsection (b) below. The parties shall attempt in good faith to agree in
writing upon mutually acceptable minimum pricing for the Agreement Product in
sizes other than the 1.0cc Treatment Syringe and for any Improved Agreement
Product(s). For any syringe with a fill volume of greater than one cc (1cc), the
Minimum Price shall be the amount calculated as [ *** ] plus the dollar amount
which equals [ *** ] of such product with a larger fill volume [ *** ] of the
one cc(1cc) syringe. In the event that Biomatrix's actual incremental Cost of
Goods Sold exceeds such dollar amount, the Minimum Price shall be the amount
calculated as [ *** .] Subject to the general commercial availability of
appropriate syringes for the Agreement Product, the [ *** ] for a one and
one-half (1.5)cc syringe, [ *** ] for a two (2.0)cc syringe, and [ *** ] for a
two and one-half (2.5)cc syringe.

         (b) If Biomatrix has appointed a new distributor for a country in the
Territory pursuant to Section 2.3 and the Distributor has the right to
distribute the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in such
country, the supply pricing for the Distributor's purchase of the Agreement
Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) for resale in such country
[ *** .]

         (c) The price initially payable by the Distributor to Biomatrix for
each unit of the Agreement Product during each month of each Agreement Year
shall be the Minimum Price applicable to sales in such country (subject to
adjustment at the close of each applicable Contract Quarter and Agreement Year
in accordance with Section 7.2(e) below).

         (d) Within [ *** ] after the end of each month of each
Agreement Year for each country in the Territory, the Formula Price for the
Agreement Product in such 


***Confidential portions have been omitted and filed separately with the

country shall be calculated, and, to the extent that such Formula Price exceeds
the applicable Minimum Price for such Agreement Year for such country, an
adjustment resulting from the [ *** ] with respect to all units of the
Agreement Product sold by the Distributor (and its Affiliates and
Subdistributors) in such country during such monthly period, such payment to be
made [ *** ] after the end of the month following such monthly period.

         (e) Within [ *** ] after the end of each Contract Quarter and Agreement
Year for each country, the Formula Price for the Agreement Product in such
country shall be calculated and an adjustment resulting from the [ *** ,] as
appropriate, to the other party with respect to all units of the Agreement
Product sold by the Distributor in such country during such Contract Quarter and
Agreement Year, such payment to be made within [ *** ] after the end of such 
[ *** ] period following the end of such Contract Quarter and Agreement Year. 
The price calculated annually in this manner shall be the final price payable
for all units of the Agreement Product sold by the Distributor, any Affiliates
or Subdistributors of Distributor during such Agreement Year. For the avoidance
of doubt, the aggregate amount payable by Distributor for the Agreement
Product(s) and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in any country for any
Agreement Year shall in no event be lower than the Minimum Price multiplied by
the total units sold in such Agreement Year in such country.

         (f) Within [ *** ] following the end of each calendar month in each
Agreement Year, the Distributor shall submit to Biomatrix written reports
detailing the units and value of the Distributor's, Affiliates' and
Subdistributors' Net Retail Sales and aggregate number of units sold of the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in each country in the
Territory during the immediately preceding calendar month.

         (g) Within [ *** ] following the end of each Agreement Year, the
Distributor shall submit to Biomatrix written reports detailing the
Distributor's and its Affiliates' and Subdistributors' sales of the Agreement
Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) during the immediately preceding
Agreement Year, which reports shall contain the Net Retail Sales of the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in each country in the
Territory, and the aggregate number of units of the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Product(s) sold in each country in the Territory during the
applicable Agreement Year.

         (h) All purchases of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement
Product(s) hereunder shall be billed and paid in Dollars within [ *** ] after
the later of the date of delivery or the date of the Distributor's receipt of
the invoice for each shipment of same to the Distributor.

        7.3.   Sales and Supply Forecasts; Accounts.

         (a) Exhibit D, which shall be supplied by the Distributor within
[ *** ] of the Effective Date, sets forth a sales forecast of units of the
Agreement Product in the Territory for the first year after the Effective Date.

         (b) Within [ *** ] after the end of each month, the Distributor shall
provide to Biomatrix an updated rolling twelve (12) month monthly supply
forecast for all unit sizes of the Agreement Product in the Territory. Each such
supply forecast described in this subsection (b) is referred to herein as a
"Supply Forecast"; provided, that updated Supply Forecasts shall not vary
(whether up or down) from the immediately preceding Supply Forecast by more than
[ *** ] with respect to each month covered by such preceding Supply Forecast.

        (c) The Distributor shall maintain, and shall require its Affiliates and
Subdistributors to maintain, books of account with respect to sales of the
Agreement Product in the Territory by it and its Affiliates and Subdistributors.
Biomatrix shall have the right, not more than once during each calendar year, to
have an independent accountant selected and retained by Biomatrix (reasonably
acceptable to the Distributor, provided that any "big six" accounting firm shall
be deemed reasonable) to inspect and examine such books of the Distributor, its
Affiliates and Subdistributors during regular business hours for the purpose of
verifying the statements of the aggregate Net Retail Sales of all Dermal Tissue
Augmentation Products for all purposes hereunder, including verification of
Formula Price and the royalties described in Section 8. The cost of each such
audit shall be borne by Biomatrix unless a material error is discovered in the
course of such audit, in which case the cost shall be borne by the Distributor.
For purposes of this Section 7.3(d), a material error shall be defined as an
understatement of five percent (5%) or more of the aggregate amount owed to
Biomatrix with respect to sales of Dermal Tissue Augmentation Products in a
country in the Territory. Any additional payments required as a result of such
inspection and examination shall be immediately paid to Biomatrix and shall bear
interest from the date such amount would otherwise have been paid until the date
of actual payment at the rate per annum set forth in Section 20. Such
independent accounting firm shall conduct such inspections and examinations
under conditions of confidentiality.

         7.4. Shipment and Delivery; Packaging.

         (a) Biomatrix or an Affiliate of Biomatrix shall arrange for shipment
to the Distributor of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement
Product(s) ordered by the Distributor [ *** ]. The Distributor shall
pay all customs duties, sales taxes and other governmental charges relating to
the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s), and shall be solely
responsible for clearing such products through customs throughout the Territory.

                                      -20-


         (b) The Distributor shall submit a firm purchase order setting forth
the quantities, delivery date and shipping instructions with respect to each
shipment of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s), such
purchase orders to be received by Biomatrix at least [ *** ] prior to the
requested delivery date; provided that the Distributor shall not submit any
purchase order for fewer than [ *** ] units of the Agreement Product or the
Improved Agreement Product(s) (although multiple delivery sites for purchase
orders shall be allowed). Biomatrix shall use commercially reasonable efforts
but shall have no obligation to supply Distributor with quantities of the
Agreement Product(s) and Improved Agreement Product(s) in excess of the amounts
in the then current Supply Forecast for the relevant monthly period. For
avoidance of doubt, so long as Biomatrix supplies Distributor with quantities of
the Agreement Product and Improved Agreement Product(s) as set forth in the
Supply Forecast, then Biomatrix shall not be deemed to be in default under this
section or any other provision of this Agreement relating to Biomatrix's supply
obligations. In addition to the foregoing, within [ *** ,] in consideration
for which units the Distributor shall pay to Biomatrix a price of [ *** ] per
unit.

         (c) Biomatrix agrees that with respect to languages for packaging for
the European Territory three separate forms of packaging shall be made
available, as applicable, as follows:

                  (i) Northern Europe - English, Dutch, French, German and
                  Italian;

                  (ii) Southern Europe - English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese
                  and Greek; and

                  (iii) Scandinavia - English, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and
                  Finnish.

         (d) Each unit of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement
Products shipped to the Distributor shall have, as of the time of delivery, a
remaining shelf life of no less than [ *** ] less than the maximum shelf life
for such product, as approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration.
Biomatrix shall continually use its best efforts at all times during the term
hereof to lengthen to [ *** ] the shelf life of the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Products to the extent supported by stability data.
Biomatrix' "best efforts" in this section shall mean that Biomatrix shall use
such methods, exercise such degree of effort and diligence, and adhere to such
standards as are commercially reasonable.

         7.5. Title. Legal title to all quantities of the Agreement Product and
any Improved Agreement Product(s) sold hereunder shall remain in Biomatrix until
delivery of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) to
Distributor or its agent and acceptance thereof and upon such delivery and
acceptance the title to such Agreement

Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) shall, without further action, be
transferred to and vested in the Distributor.

         7.6. Risk of Loss. Biomatrix shall bear all risk of loss of, or damage
to, all units of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) to
the extent the same is in its possession or the possession of its Affiliates,
nominees or agents. The Distributor shall bear all risk of loss of, or damage
to, all units of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s)
after delivery to a common carrier for shipment to the Distributor in accordance
with Section 7.4.

         7.7. Acceptance. [ *** .] All units of the Agreement Product and
Improved Agreement Products delivered to Distributor pursuant to this Agreement
shall be [ *** ,] the specifications listed in Exhibit A. Any non-conformity
which arises after acceptance by Distributor directly associated with product
specification shall be the responsibility of Biomatrix unless such
non-conformity is due to improper storage conditions subsequent to delivery of
the Agreement Product. All other non-conformities of the Agreement Product shall
be the responsibility of the Distributor. Biomatrix and the Distributor agree to
consult with each other in order to resolve the discrepancy between each other's
determinations. If such consultation does not resolve the discrepancy, the
parties agree to nominate a reputable independent laboratory, acceptable to both
parties, that shall carry out tests on representative samples taken from such
shipment, and the results of such tests shall be binding on the parties.
Biomatrix shall at its expense replace any such shipment to the extent that it
does not conform to the Agreement Product Specifications. All defective units of
the Agreement Product or any Improved Agreement Product(s) shall be returned to
Biomatrix at the address set forth in Section 23 of this Agreement, accompanied
or preceded by a reasonably detailed statement of the claimed defect or
non-conformity and proof of date of purchase, and packed and shipped according
to instructions provided by Biomatrix. The shipping costs of any such returned
units shall be borne by Biomatrix, unless such units are determined not to be
defective under the terms of this Agreement, in which case such shipping costs
shall be borne by the Distributor.

         7.8. Purchase Orders. The provisions of this Agreement shall prevail
over any inconsistent statement or provisions contained in any document related
to this Agreement passing between the parties hereto including, but not limited
to, any purchase order, acknowledgment, confirmation or notice.

Tissue Augmentation Products (other than sales of the Agreement Product and any

Territory after the Effective Date, [ *** .] Such royalty shall commence with
respect to each country in the Territory at the earlier of (a) the Launch of the
Agreement Product in such country or (b) the Launch date for such country set
forth on Exhibit B; provided that if a Launch is delayed due to Biomatrix's
failure to meet its supply obligations under Section 7.4, due to a force majeure
condition of Distributor or if the Distributor is not able to lawfully sell the
Agreement product in such country, such royalty with respect to any such country
shall not commence until Biomatrix meets its supply obligations, Distributor is
able to lawfully sell the Agreement Product in such country, or until such force
majeure condition ceases. Such royalty shall be paid by not later than [ *** ]

The Distributor's obligation to pay the Incremental Royalties shall cease with
respect to a country in the Territory in the event that the Distributor's rights
to sell, distribute, market and promote the Agreement Product and any Improved
Agreement Product have become non-exclusive with respect to such country
pursuant to Section 2.3 or have terminated pursuant to Section 3.2(d). The
Incremental Royalty shall be paid by not later than [ *** ] after the end of
each Agreement Year. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Distributor had no sales
of any Dermal Tissue Augmentation Products in a country prior to the first

royalty on Net Retail Sales of all Dermal Tissue Augmentation products sold
after such first commercial sale.

with any of the requirements therefor specified in any Product License
Approvals.

         (f) Each of the Distributor and Biomatrix shall keep the other advised
of regulatory interactions, activities and correspondence and the registration
status of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) on at
least a quarterly basis, and any matters requiring immediate attention shall be
communicated as soon as practicable.

         15.2. Clinical Trials and Marketing Studies.

         (a) The Distributor shall be responsible at its own cost for conducting
and managing any clinical trials which the Distributor or Biomatrix may be
required to undertake in order to obtain Product License Approvals in the
Territory, except in the European Territory. The protocols for any such clinical
trials will be developed jointly by Biomatrix and the Distributor, and Biomatrix
shall have the right to audit the performance of any clinical studies performed

Improved Agreement Product(s). The Distributor shall provide Biomatrix with the
results of all such clinical trials, and Biomatrix and its Affiliates shall be
free to use the results of such clinical trials.

         (b) The parties agree that if any marketing-related studies are deemed
necessary, such studies will not delay the Launch in any country in the European

audit the performance of any marketing-related studies performed by or on behalf
of the Distributor. The results of such studies will not be published or
publicized in any way without the prior written approval of Biomatrix.

         16. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The parties hereto agree to execute such
further or other documents and assurances as are necessary from time to time in
order to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement.

         17. ASSIGNMENT. The rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall
inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the authorized successors and
permitted assigns of each party. Neither party may assign its rights or
obligations under this Agreement or may designate another person to perform all
or part of its obligations under this Agreement, or to have all or part of its
rights and benefits under this Agreement without the prior written consent of
the other party, except to an Affiliate or to a successor of the business, by
merger or otherwise, to which this Agreement relates, provided that in the case
of an assignment to an Affiliate the assigning party shall promptly notify the
other party in writing of such assignment and shall remain liable (both directly
and as guarantor) with respect to all obligations so assigned. In the event of
any assignment or in the event that an Affiliate of either party shall exercise
rights and/or perform obligations hereunder pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, the assignee or Affiliate, as the case may be, shall specifically
assume and be bound by the provisions of the Agreement by executing and agreeing
to an assumption agreement satisfactory to the other party hereto.

         18. GOVERNING LAW; ARBITRATION; INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.

         (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal and substantive laws of the State of New York, United States
of America. The parties hereby agree that the United Nations Convention on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement
or any other document contemplated hereby. In the event of any dispute touching
or concerning this Agreement, the parties hereby agree to submit such dispute to
their respective presidents by notice delivered in accordance with the
provisions of Section 23, and if within [ *** ,] or such other period as is
agreed upon in writing by the parties hereto, following such reference the
dispute remains unresolved, to submit the dispute for arbitration in Boston,
Massachusetts under the Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect
on the date of this Agreement (the "Rules") by arbitrators appointed in
accordance with said Rules. Any decision of such arbitrators shall be written
and shall be final and binding upon the parties. In any arbitration pursuant to
this Section the award shall be rendered by a majority of three (3) arbitrators,
one (1) of whom shall be appointed by each party and the third of whom shall be
appointed by mutual agreement of the two (2) party-appointed arbitrators. In the
event of failure of a party to appoint an arbitrator within thirty (30) days
after commencement of the arbitration proceeding or in the event of failure of
the two (2) party-appointed arbitrators to agree upon the appointment of the
third arbitrator within sixty (60) days after commencement of the arbitration
proceeding, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration
Association in accordance with the Rules. The arbitrators shall apply

the governing law set forth in this Section. Judgment upon an award rendered by
the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

         (b) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that damages
will not be an adequate remedy for any material breach or violation of this
Agreement if such material breach or violation would cause immediate and
irreparable harm (an "Irreparable Breach"). Accordingly, notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 18(a) to the contrary, in the event of a threatened or
ongoing Irreparable Breach, each party hereto shall be entitled to seek, in any
state or federal court in the State of New York, equitable relief of a kind
appropriate in light of the nature of the ongoing threatened Irreparable Breach,
which relief may include, without limitation, specific performance or injunctive
relief; provided, however, that if the party bringing such action is
unsuccessful in obtaining the relief sought, the moving party shall pay the
non-moving party's reasonable costs, including attorney's fees, incurred in
connection with defending such action. Such remedies shall not be the parties'
exclusive remedies, but shall be in addition to all other remedies provided in
this Agreement.

         19. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction or by any governmental body
to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable and the
remaining parts and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect.

         20. FORCE MAJEURE. Each of the parties shall be excused from the
performance of its obligations hereunder in the event such performance is
prevented by force majeure, and such excuse shall continue as long as the
condition constituting such force majeure continues. For the purpose of this
Agreement, force majeure is defined as contingencies beyond the reasonable
control of either party, including, without limitation, acts of God, judicial or
regulatory action, war, civil commotion, destruction of production facilities or
materials by fire, earthquake or storm and labor disturbances (whether or not
any such labor disturbance is within the power of the affected party to settle).

         21. INTEREST. Any overdue amounts payable by either party hereunder
shall bear interest compounded monthly at the prime lending rate for Dollars
published from time to time in The Wall Street Journal plus [ *** ] per annum,
or, if lower, the highest rate permissible by applicable law, from the due date
until the date of payment.

         22. NO PARTNERSHIP OR AGENCY. This Agreement and the relations hereby
established by and between Biomatrix and the Distributor do not constitute a
partnership, joint venture, agency or contract of employment between them.

         23. NOTICES. All communications in connection with this Agreement shall
be in writing and sent by postage prepaid first class mail, courier, or telefax,
and if relating to default, late payment or termination, by certified mail,
return receipt requested, telefax or courier, addressed to each party at the
address set forth at the beginning of this Agreement, in the case of Biomatrix,

U.S.A., and in the case of the Distributor, Attn: President, with a copy to
Kimberlie L. Cerrone, Esq., Venture Law Group, 2800 Sand Hill Road, Menlo Park,
California 94025, or to such other address as the addressee shall last have
designated by notice to the communicating party. The date of giving any notice
shall be the date of its actual receipt.

         24. EU REGULATIONS. It is the intention of the parties hereto that this
Agreement shall at all times qualify for the exemption from the provisions of
Article 85(1) of the Treaty of Rome dated 25 March, 1957, as amended, which
either (a) is available under EEC Regulation Number 1983/83, or (b) may
subsequently be available under any successor regulation or regulations thereto.
In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to violate the
conditions for qualifying for the exemption, set out in whichever of those
regulations may be in effect at the relevant time, or if any such regulation is
amended after the date of this Agreement so as to cause this Agreement to fail
to qualify for the exemption, the parties hereto agree that they will, as soon
as it is practicable to do so, enter into good faith negotiations to amend this
Agreement as necessary in order to re-qualify for the exemption or to notify the
Agreement. If those negotiations are not successfully concluded within a
reasonable time (not to exceed ninety (90) days, or such other period as is
agreed upon in writing by the parties hereto, after the relevant regulation is
amended), either party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the
other party.

         25. SURVIVAL. The provisions of Sections 3.3, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 6.2, 9.1,
9.2, 9.3, 9.4 and 9.5 of this Agreement shall survive the termination or
expiration of this Agreement (as the case may be) and shall remain in full force
and effect. The provisions of this Agreement that do not survive termination or
expiration hereof (as the case may be) shall, nonetheless, be controlling on,
and shall be used in construing and interpreting the rights and obligations of
the parties hereto with regard to, any dispute, controversy or claim which may
arise under, out of, or in connection with this Agreement.

         26. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the transactions and arrangements
contemplated hereby and supersedes all prior oral or written arrangements. This
Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written instrument executed and
delivered by both parties. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed to have been waived by any act or acquiescence on the part of either
party except by an instrument in writing signed and delivered by the party
executing the waiver. This Agreement may be executed in several identical
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which constitute
one instrument, and in making proof of this Agreement it shall not be necessary
to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual

the date of a conversion to a non-exclusive distribution arrangement within the

Distributor shall retain the exclusive right to use all trademarks under which
the Distributor launched the Agreement Product or any Improved Agreement
Product(s) in the Territory.

        3.     TERM AND TERMINATION.

        3.1.   Effective Date.  This Agreement shall take effect as of the 
               Effective Date.

        3.2.   Term.

        (a) Unless this Agreement is sooner terminated in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, the term of the appointment hereunder for shall
commence on the first day of the first Agreement Year and shall end on the last
day of the tenth (10th) Agreement Year (the "Initial Term").

        (b) Unless this Agreement is sooner terminated in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, the appointment of the Distributor hereunder as
exclusive distributor of the Agreement Product shall be renewable by the
Distributor, at its option, upon written notice to Biomatrix received at least
ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial Term, for an additional
consecutive term of five (5) years following the date of expiration of the
Initial Term, provided that the Distributor shall only be entitled to exercise
such renewal option if as of the date of expiration of the Initial Term the
Distributor is not in material breach of any of its obligations under this
Agreement. Thereafter, the appointment of the Distributor as exclusive
distributor of the Agreement Product shall be renewable upon the expiration of
such additional five (5) year term, upon written notice to Biomatrix received at
least ninety (90) days prior to the end of such term for one additional
consecutive renewal term of five (5) years provided that, as of the date of
expiration of the first renewal term, the Distributor is not in material breach
of any of its obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of any doubt,
Distributor's rights with respect to any Improved Agreement Product(s)
commercialized after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date shall terminate
upon the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Subject to the terms of this
Agreement, Distributor shall have the right to continue to sell the Agreement
Product and any Improved Agreement Products it is then currently selling.

to the other party, in the event that (i) a mutual decision not to Launch the

within the time period set forth on Exhibit B.

        (d) In the event that in any Agreement Year after and including the
third Agreement Year (and so long as (i) no force majeure condition of
Distributor exists at such time pursuant to Section 20, (ii) Biomatrix has met
its supply obligations under Section 7.4,

and (iii) Distributor is able to lawfully sell the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Product(s) in the Territory), the Distributor's Net Retail
Sales of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) in the
Territory comprise less than seven and one-half percent (7-1/2%) of its Net
Retail Sales in the Territory of all Dermal Tissue Augmentation Products,
including the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s), the
Distributor's distribution rights (including, without limitation, its right to
use the Trademarks) under this Agreement for the Agreement Product and any
Improved Agreement Product(s) in the Territory shall terminate upon ninety (90)
days notice, but in any event not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days
after the end of the applicable Agreement Year, at the election of Biomatrix;
provided, however, that Distributor may cure a shortfall of Net Retail Sales for
an Agreement Year by paying to Biomatrix an amount equal to twenty-five percent
(25%) of the total dollar amount of such shortfall of Net Retail Sales in such
Agreement Year; further provided that, at Biomatrix's election, Biomatrix may
refuse to allow such cure if Distributor has taken advantage of such cure
provision in each of the two preceding Agreement Years. By way of example, if
Distributor's Net Retail Sales of all Dermal Tissue Augmentation Products in the
Territory in a given Agreement Year were $10,000, and Distributor's Net Retail
Sales of the Agreement Product in the Territory in such Agreement Year were
$500, then Distributor could cure such shortfall and prevent termination by
paying Biomatrix $62.50. Upon any such termination of the Distributor's
distribution rights in the Territory, the Distributor's obligation to pay any
royalties pursuant to Sections 8.1 and 8.2 for any sales in the Territory after
such termination shall cease, but the Distributor shall remain obligated to pay
all such royalties for sales in the Territory accrued prior to such termination.

        (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, Biomatrix may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to receipt of
the Approved Letter (as defined hereafter) from the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration if Distributor is in material breach of the International
Agreement, which material breach has not been cured within thirty (30) days
after written notice of such breach is received by Distributor. The parties
expressly agree that Distributor's failure to meet or adhere to the launch
schedule for the Agreement Product for each country as set forth in the
International Agreement shall be deemed a material breach of the International
Agreement except to the extent that Distributor's failure to meet such launch
schedule is due to (i) Biomatrix's failure to meet its supply obligations under
the International Agreement, (ii) a force majeure condition of the Distributor,
or (iii) it being unlawful for the Distributor to sell the Agreement Product or
any Improved Agreement Product in the Territory, provided that such unlawfulness
is not the result of any act or failure to act of the Distributor.

        (f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Distributor may terminate this Agreement upon notice to Biomatrix
of the Distributor's decision not to pay the fee called for in Section 7.1(b).

       3.3.   Inventory.

        (a) Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Biomatrix shall
have the right (but not the obligation) to repurchase all or part of the
inventory of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) held by
the Distributor or its Affiliates.

        (b) The price for inventory to be repurchased by Biomatrix pursuant to
Section 3.3(a) above shall be the landed cost thereof actually paid by the
Distributor to Biomatrix. With respect to any quantities not repurchased by
Biomatrix, the Distributor shall have the right to sell such inventory of the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s), in its usual and
customary manner, in the ordinary course of business, for a period of six (6)
months following termination of this Agreement and notwithstanding such
termination the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to such
sales.

        3.4. Insolvency. This Agreement may be immediately terminated by either
party, upon giving written notice to the other party, in the event that the
other party shall become insolvent or be declared bankrupt by a court of
competent jurisdiction or shall be the subject of any reorganization (other than
a corporate reorganization effected in the ordinary course of business and not
arising out of any insolvency) or winding up, receivership or dissolution,
bankruptcy or liquidation proceeding, or any proceeding or action similar to one
or more of the above, in which case termination shall be effective upon such
written notice. The failure of either party to give notice of termination upon
obtaining knowledge of any such event shall not be interpreted as a waiver of
such party's rights under this Section 3.4, and such party reserves the right to
exercise any such rights at any time after the occurrence of any such event.

        3.5. Breach. This Agreement may be terminated by either party if the
other party shall breach any of its payment obligations hereunder or if
Distributor shall commit a material breach of any of its warranties, covenants,
conditions, obligations or agreements contained herein, provided that such
breach shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days (ten (10) days in the
event that such breach is the failure of the Distributor to pay the fee called
for in Section 7.1(b)) after written notice thereof and provided further that
such termination shall be immediately effective upon further written notice to
that effect to the breaching party after its failure to cure such breach within
such applicable notice period. For avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that if
a Launch is not reached within thirty days after the time period set forth on
Exhibit B, then either party may terminate this Agreement (provided that such
failure to reach a Launch is not due to (i) a force majeure condition of the
Distributor, (ii) Biomatrix's failure to meet its supply obligations under
Section 7.4, or (iii) it being unlawful for the Distributor to sell the
Agreement Product or any Improved Agreement Product in the Territory, provided
that such unlawfulness is not the result of any act or failure to act of the
Distributor).

        3.6. Certain Rights Upon Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement
for any reason whatsoever, Biomatrix shall have the following rights:

        3.7.   Effects of Termination.

        (a) Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Distributor
shall immediately discontinue making any representations regarding its status as
a distributor for Biomatrix and shall immediately cease conducting any
activities with respect to the marketing, promotion, sale or distribution of the
Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s), provided, however, that
the Distributor shall be permitted to sell inventory not repurchased by
Biomatrix in accordance with Section 3.3.

        (b) Termination of this Agreement shall not affect obligations of either
party that may have accrued prior to the effective date of termination. Subject

prejudicial to, any other grounds for termination or rights or remedies at law
or in equity which either party may have on account of any default of the other
party.

        3.8. Waiver. The Distributor hereby waives, to the extent it is able to
do so under the laws of the United States and other applicable law, any

Agreement shall be made in full, free and clear of and without any deduction of
or withholding for or on account of any taxes levied in any country of the
Territory or elsewhere; provided that if the Distributor shall be required by
law to make any deduction or withholding from any payment to Biomatrix then:

        (a) the Distributor shall ensure that such deduction or withholding does
not exceed the minimum legal liability therefor; and

        (b) not later than five (5) days before each deduction or withholding of
any taxes, the Distributor shall forward to Biomatrix such documentary evidence

        (c) prior to any deduction or withholding the parties shall attempt in
good faith to agree upon revised mutually acceptable pricing and/or payment

        7.2. Price; Adjustment; Reports; Payment.

        (a) The parties shall attempt in good faith to agree in writing, prior
to the Launch in each country, upon mutually acceptable supply pricing for the
Distributor's purchase of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement
Product(s), but such pricing in any event shall not be less than the greater of

Minimum Price shall be the amount calculated as [ *** ] plus the dollar amount
which equals [ *** ] of such product with a larger fill volume [ *** ] of the
one cc (1cc) syringe. In the event that Biomatrix's actual incremental Cost of
Goods Sold exceeds such dollar amount, the Minimum Price shall be the amount
calculated as [ *** ] Subject to the general commercial availability of

        (d) Within [ *** ] after the end of each month of each Agreement Year,
the Formula Price for the Agreement Product shall be calculated, and, to the
extent that such Formula Price exceeds the applicable Minimum Price for such

respect to all units of the Agreement Product sold by the Distributor in the
Territory during such Contract Quarter and Agreement Year, such payment to be

manner shall be the final price payable for all units of the Agreement Product
sold by the Distributor or any Affiliate during such Agreement Year. For the
avoidance of doubt, the aggregate amount payable by Distributor for the
Agreement Product(s) and any Improved Agreement Product(s) for any Agreement
Year shall in no event be lower than the Minimum Price multiplied by the total
units sold in such Agreement Year in the Territory.

        (f) Within [ *** ] following the end of each calendar month in each
Agreement Year, the Distributor shall submit to Biomatrix written reports
detailing the units and value of the Distributor's and its Affiliates' Net

Improved Agreement Product(s) during the immediately preceding Agreement Year,
which reports shall contain the Net Retail Sales of the Agreement Product and
any Improved Agreement Product(s) in the Territory, and the aggregate number of
units of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement Product(s) sold in the
Territory during the applicable Agreement Year.

        (h) All purchases of the Agreement Product and any Improved Agreement

       (b) Within [ *** ] after the end of each month of each Agreement
Year in the Territory, the Distributor shall provide to Biomatrix an updated

for the purpose of verifying the statements of the aggregate Net Retail Sales of
all Dermal Tissue Augmentation Products for all purposes hereunder, including
verification of Formula Price and the royalties described in Section 8. The cost
of each such audit shall be borne by Biomatrix unless a material error is
discovered in the course of such audit, in which case the cost shall be borne by
the Distributor. For purposes of this Section 7.3(d), a material error shall be
defined as an understatement of five percent (5%) or more of the aggregate
amount owed to Biomatrix with respect to sales of Dermal Tissue Augmentation
Products in the Territory. Any additional payments required as a result of such
inspection and examination shall be immediately paid to Biomatrix and shall bear
interest from the date such amount would otherwise have been paid until the date
of actual payment at the rate per annum set forth in Section 20. Such
independent accounting firm shall conduct such inspections and examinations
under conditions of confidentiality.

        7.4.   Shipment and Delivery; Packaging; Shelf Life.

Product(s) in excess of the amounts in the then current Supply Forecast for the
relevant monthly period.

after acceptance by Distributor directly associated with Product specification

improper storage conditions subsequent to delivery of the Agreement Product. All
other non-conformities of the Agreement Product shall be the responsibility of
the Distributor. Biomatrix and the Distributor agree to consult with each other
in order to resolve the discrepancy between each other's determinations. If such
