 Severance Benefits 

(1) If, at any time, (i) the Company terminates your employment without Cause, other than as a result of your death or disability or
(ii) you terminate your employment for Good Reason during the two-year period following a Change in Control, then you shall receive the following severance benefits (the “Severance

60 days of the Termination Date (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of your target Annual Bonus, paid within 60 days following the Termination Date; (iii) if you timely elect continued coverage under federal COBRA laws or comparable
state insurance laws (“COBRA”), then the Company shall pay the COBRA premiums necessary to continue your medical and dental insurance coverage in effect for yourself and your eligible dependents beginning the first month following
your termination date for twelve (12) months of such coverage (provided that such COBRA reimbursement shall terminate on such earlier date as you are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage or you become eligible for group health

 (2) Your receipt of the Severance Benefits or CIC Severance Benefits, as applicable, is
conditional upon (a) your continuing to comply with your obligations under your Proprietary Information Agreement; and (b) your executing and delivering an effective, general release of all known and unknown claims in favor of Bioventus,
in the Company’s customary form within 45 days following the Termination Date (and not revoking the release). 
 Section 409A 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement is intended to be interpreted and applied so that the payment of the benefits set forth herein
shall either be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (together with the Department of Treasury Regulations and other guidance thereunder,
“Section 409A”) or shall comply with the requirements of such provision. After the Termination Date, you shall have no duties or responsibilities that are inconsistent with having a “separation from
service” (within the meaning of Section 409A) as of the Termination Date and, notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, distributions upon termination of employment of nonqualified deferred compensation may only be made
upon a “separation from service” (as determined under Section 409A) and such date shall be the Termination Date for purposes of this Agreement. Each payment under this Agreement or otherwise shall be treated as a separate payment for
purposes of Section 409A. In no event may you, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this Agreement which constitutes a “nonqualified deferral of compensation” (within the meaning of
Section 409A) and to the extent an amount is payable within a time period, the time during which such amount is paid shall be in the discretion of Bioventus. To the extent that any reimbursements are taxable to you, any such reimbursement
payment due to you shall be paid to you on or before the last day of the calendar year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. The reimbursements are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the
amount of such reimbursements that you receive in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such reimbursements that you receive in any other taxable year. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are deemed at
the time of your separation from service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the termination benefits to which you are entitled under
this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of your termination benefits shall not be provided to you prior to the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your “separation from service” with the Company or (B) the date of your death; upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this
sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to you, and any remaining payments due under the Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.

 Assignment 

This Agreement may be assigned by Bioventus to a person or entity which is an affiliate or a successor in interest to substantially all of the business
operations of Bioventus. Upon such assignment, the rights and obligations of Bioventus hereunder shall become the rights and obligations of such affiliate or successor person. You may not assign your rights or obligations to another entity or

Agreement or the Proprietary Information Agreement to the contrary, (i) you shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal,

to court order. 
 Section 280G Parachute Payments 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by you in connection
with a Change in Control or otherwise would be considered an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, then such payments and benefits will either be (i) delivered in full or (ii) reduced by
the minimum amount necessary so that all of the remaining payments and benefits will not be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing (i) or (ii) results in the greater net after-tax value of payment and benefits to you. All determinations regarding the application of this paragraph shall be made by an accounting firm or consulting group with experience in performing calculations
regarding the applicability of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code selected by the Company, and all associated costs will be borne by the Company.

 PROPRIETARY INFORMATION, INVENTIONS, 

NON-SOLICITATION, AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT 

In consideration of my initial offer of employment, by Bioventus LLC, its subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, successors and assigns (together,
the “Company”) and the compensation paid to me, I hereby enter into this Proprietary Information, Inventions, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation
Agreement (the “Agreement”) and agree as follows: 
 1. NONDISCLOSURE. 

1.1 Recognition of Company’s Rights. At all times during my employment and thereafter, I will hold in strictest confidence
and will not disclose or use any of the Company’s Proprietary Information (defined below), except as such disclosure or use may be required in connection with my work for the Company, or unless an officer of the Company expressly authorizes
such in writing. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that all Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company. I will take all reasonable precautions to
prevent the inadvertent or accidental disclosure of Proprietary Information. 
 1.2 Proprietary Information. The term
“Proprietary Information” shall mean any and all confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information of the Company, its affiliates, parents and subsidiaries, whether having existed, now existing, or to be developed
during my employment. By way of illustration but not limitation, “Proprietary Information” includes (a) trade secrets, inventions, ideas, processes, formulas, discoveries, developments, designs and techniques and any other
proprietary technology and all Proprietary Rights (defined below) therein (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Inventions”); (b) information regarding research, development, new products, marketing and selling, business
plans, budgets and financial statements, licenses, prices and costs, discounts, credit terms, pricing and billing policies, quoting procedures, methods of obtaining or conducting business, forecasts, future plans and potential strategies, financial
projections and business strategies, operational plans, financing and capital-raising plans, activities and agreements, internal services and operational manuals, suppliers and supplier information, and purchasing; (c) information regarding
customers and potential customers of the Company, including customer lists, names, representatives, their needs or desires with respect to the types of products or services offered by the Company, proposals, bids, contracts and their contents and
parties, the type and quantity of products and services provided or sought to be provided to customers and potential customers of the Company and other related non-public information; (d) information
regarding any of the Company’s business partners and their services, including names, representatives, proposals, bids, contracts and their contents and parties, the type and quantity of products and services received by the Company, and other
related non-public information; (e) information regarding personnel, employee lists, and employee skills; and (f) any other non-public information which a
competitor of the Company could use to the competitive disadvantage of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I am free to use information which is generally known in the trade or industry through no breach of this Agreement or other act or
omission by me. If an additional time limitation on this restriction is required in order for it to be enforceable then this restriction shall be limited to a period of two years following the termination of my employment for any information that
does not qualify as a trade secret. Trade secret information will remain protected at all times and nothing herein shall be construed to reduce or diminish the applicability of trade secret protections, statutory or common law, that apply to the
Company’s trade secrets independent from this Agreement.

 1.3 Third Party Information. I understand that the Company has received and in
the future will receive from third parties confidential and/or proprietary knowledge or information (“Third Party Information”). During my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence
and will not disclose to anyone (other than Company personnel who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company) or use, except in connection with my work for the Company, Third Party Information unless expressly
authorized by an officer of the Company in writing. 
 1.4 Protected Conduct. I acknowledge and agree that if I am compelled
to disclose information via court order, subpoena, or other legal mandate, I will give the Company as much written notice as possible under the circumstances, will refrain from use or disclosure for as long as the law allows, and will cooperate with
the Company to protect such information, including taking every reasonable step to protect against unnecessary disclosure. However, nothing in this Agreement, including the foregoing, prevents me from communicating with the EEOC, the SEC, the DOL,
or any other governmental authority, making a report in good faith and with a reasonable belief of any violations of law or regulation to a governmental authority, or cooperating with or participating in a legal proceeding relating to such
violations. 
 1.5 Notice Under the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act. I acknowledge that I am hereby provided notice that under
the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA): (1) no individual (consultant, contractor or employee) will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret (as defined in the Economic

violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and (2) an individual (consultant, contractor or employee)

	6.	 General Provisions. 



6.1 Governing Law; Consent to Personal Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed according to the laws of
the State of North Carolina as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within North Carolina between North Carolina residents. I hereby expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction and exclusive and mandatory
venue of the state and federal courts located in North Carolina for any lawsuit arising from or related to this Agreement. 
 6.2
Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions, subsections, or sentences contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. If moreover, any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed by limiting and reducing it (where allowed by applicable law), so as to be enforceable to
the extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear. 
 6.3 Employment
At-Will. I agree and understand that nothing in this Agreement shall change my at-will employment status or confer any right with respect to continuation of
employment by the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with my right or the Company’s right to terminate my employment at any time, with or without cause or advance notice. 

6.4 Advice of Counsel. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT, IN EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT, I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK THE ADVICE OF INDEPENDENT LEGAL
COUNSEL, AND I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL OF THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AGAINST ANY PARTY BY REASON OF THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION HEREOF. 

6.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between us. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be
charged. Any subsequent change or changes in my employment status, duties, salary or compensation will not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement.

person, firm, association, or corporation that I intend to be employed by, associated with, or provide consulting services for in order to insure compliance with this Agreement. I understand that both the Company and I have the right to provide
another party an opinion about interpretation and/or application of this Agreement; I consent to such communications, and agree not to assert a claim of wrongdoing by the Company as a result of such a communication. 

6.7 Tolling. If I fail to comply with a timed restriction in this Agreement, the time period for that will be extended by one
day for each day I am found to have violated the restriction, up to a maximum of one (1) year. This provision shall not apply to employees residing in Georgia or Wisconsin if the choice of law provision in Section 6.1 is deemed not to
apply.

VACATION POLICY 

Policy 
 Bioventus recognizes the value of rest and
relaxation away from work and, therefore, offer employees paid time off for vacation each year. Vacation is available to full-time and part-time employees to provide time away from their duties at work. 

Scope 
 This policy applies to full-time and part-time
employees. 
 Procedure/Guidelines 
 Vacation Accrual

 Employees accrue vacation days beginning in the month of hire. Employees may begin using vacation time when accrual begins. Vacation time is accrued
on the last day of each calendar month. 
 Full-time employees accrue vacation time based on continuous employment as follows: (Part-time employees accrue
vacation time pro-rated to 50% of full-time employee accrual rates.) 
  

			
	 Years of Service
	  	 Vacation Accrual

	Less than five (5) years	  	1.25 days (10) hours per month, up to fifteen (15) days (120 hours) per calendar year. Accrual beginning the month of hire.
		
	Five (5) years or greater, but less than twelve (12) years	  	1.41 days (11.33) hours per month, up to seventeen (17) days (136 hours) per calendar year. If hired in the months of January through August, accrual begins on
January 1st of the 5th year anniversary. If hired in the months of September through December, accrual begins on January 1st of the year following the 5th year anniversary.
		
	Twelve (12) years or greater, but less than twenty (20) years	  	1.67 days (13.34) hours per month, up to twenty (20) days (160 hours) per calendar year. If hired in the months of January through August, accrual begins on January 1st
of the 5th year anniversary. If hired in the months of September through December, accrual begins on January 1st of the year following the 12th year anniversary.

	 Years of Service
	  	 Vacation Accrual

	 Twenty (20) years and greater
	  	2.08 days (16.67) hours per month, up to twenty five (25) days (200 hours) per calendar year. If hired in the months of January through August, accrual begins on
January 1st of the 5th year anniversary. If hired in the months of September through December, accrual begins on January 1st of the year following the 20th year anniversary.

 Vacation Year 
 The twelve
(12) month vacation accrual period will begin January 1 and end December 31. Vacation time must be taken during the calendar year in which time is accrued. Vacation time may not be carried forward into a new calendar year except as
required by state law. If carryover is permitted, the number of accrued vacation hours is limited to no more than one and one-half (1.5) times the amount of time available to be accrued by the employee in the
calendar year. 
 Vacation Scheduling 
 Employees must
take vacation time in increments of one (1) hour except when used in conjunction with family medical leave. Use of vacation time must be approved by the appropriate manager. To take vacation, employees should request approval from their
managers through Workday as far in advance as possible to ensure adequate coverage of job and staff requirements. Single vacation day requests may be considered, provided the manager receives a minimum twenty-four (24) hours’ notice. 

Vacation time is granted when convenient during the vacation year, considering both the wishes of the employee and the business needs of the Company. As
stated previously, employees are encouraged to use accrued vacation days for rest, relaxation, and personal pursuits as time away from their employment duties. 

Employees are permitted to use accrued vacation time, but not to exceed the maximum number of days/hours for which they are eligible in the vacation year.

 If a paid holiday occurs during an employee’s vacation, the employee will be paid for the holiday and will not be charged for vacation time. 

Vacation time will be counted as hours worked for the purpose of calculating overtime. 

Vacation Tracking 
 All employees must record vacation
time in Workday, the Company approved Human Resources Information System (HRIS). Managers are responsible for ensuring employees record their vacation time accurately in Workday as it serves as the official record for the Company. Failure to do so
may result in disciplinary action.

 Vacation Pay 

Vacation pay is calculated on the employee’s current rate of base pay including commissions and shift differential (if applicable) in effect when the
vacation is taken. It does not include overtime or special forms of compensation such as incentives and bonuses. 
 Vacation Year-end Payout 
 Vacation time may not be carried forward into a new calendar year except as required by state law.
Hourly non-exempt employees will receive cash compensation for unused accrued vacation time at year end. Salaried non-exempt and salaried exempt employees will not
receive cash compensation unless approved by the Head of Human Resources or unless they work in California, Montana, Nebraska or Colorado. 
 Leave of
Absence 
 Employees continue to accrue vacation time while on approved FMLA leave. However, employees on other leaves of absence will not accrue
vacation time. 
 Payment for Vacation upon Termination 

If an individual uses anticipated accrued vacation prior to actually accruing the amount for the same twelve (12) month period and separation occurs,
unaccrued vacation days will be deducted from total termination pay per appropriate state law. If an employee works in a state where this practice is prohibited, the Company will request that the employee make a payment to the Company for all
vacation time taken prior to the time it was accrued. Upon termination of employment, employees will be paid for unused accrued vacation days that have been accrued through the last day of work.
