Re: Employment Agreement 

Dear Ms. McGee: 
 This
letter is to confirm our understanding with respect to your continued employment by Advanced BioHealing, Inc. (the “Company”). You are currently employed as the Company’s Vice President and General Manager (La Jolla)
pursuant to the terms of your existing employment agreement effective as of January 23, 2008 (the “Prior Agreement”). The Company has offered to continue your employment on the terms and conditions set forth below and
upon countersigning below you have agreed to such continued employment (the terms and conditions agreed to in this letter are hereinafter referred to as the “Agreement”). In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, we have agreed as follows: 
 1. Employment. 
 (a) Description and Duties. Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will employ you, and you will be employed by the Company and/or any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company (each, a “Company Affiliate” and
collectively, together with the Company, the “Company Group”), in the position of Vice President and General Manager (La Jolla). You will report to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. You will have the
responsibilities, duties and authority commensurate with the position of a vice president, including, without limitation, the duties set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto. You will also perform such other and/or different services for the Company
as may be assigned to you from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) or the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. You will perform such services primarily at the Company’s La Jolla,
California facility (although you agree to travel as the needs of the Company’s business may require).  
 (b) Devotion to Duties. While you are employed hereunder, you will use your best efforts, skills and abilities to perform faithfully all duties assigned to you pursuant to this Agreement and will
devote your full business time and energies to the business and 







 
affairs of the Company. While you are employed hereunder, you will not undertake any other employment from any person or entity without the prior written consent of the Company. 

(c) Company Policies. The employment relationship between the parties shall also be subject to the Company’s
personnel policies and procedures as they may be interpreted, adopted, revised or deleted from time to time in the Company’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the terms of this Agreement differ from or are in
conflict with the Company’s general employment policies or practices, this Agreement shall control. 
 2.
Compensation. 
 (a) Base Salary. While you are employed hereunder, the Company will pay you a base
salary at the annual rate of $208,000 (the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary may be subject to adjustment from time to time in the discretion of the Company but shall not be reduced unless, and only to the extent that, the base
salaries of all other similarly situated executives of the Company are proportionately reduced. The Base Salary will be payable in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices as in effect from time to
time, which currently provide for bi-weekly payments. The Company will deduct from each such installment all amounts required to be deducted or withheld under applicable law or under any employee benefit plan in which you participate. 

(b) Bonus. In addition to the Base Salary, the Company may pay you a bonus in the manner described below (the
“Bonus”). During any Plan Year (as defined below), you may be awarded an annual Bonus, the target of which is set for your position at fifty percent (50%) of your Base Salary, one-half of which shall be based on the
Company’s performance during such Plan Year and one-half of which shall be based on your performance during such Plan Year. These individual performance objectives will be agreed upon in writing no later than forty-five (45) days after the
start of your employment or beginning of the Plan Year whatever the case may be. In the event a Plan Year consists of less than or more than twelve (12) months, the Base Salary shall be pro rated for purposes of determining the amount of each
Bonus. With respect to each Plan Year, the Board shall determine, in its discretion, whether a Bonus shall be paid and the amount of such Bonus. If the Company terminates your employment during any Plan Year for any reason other than Cause (as
defined below), if you terminate for a Good Reason (as defined below) or if your employment is terminated for Disability (as defined below) or death, you (or your estate) shall be entitled to receive a pro rated portion of the Bonus, if any, earned
during such Plan Year based on the number of days you were employed by the Company during such Plan Year. If you terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 3(a)(iii)(A) hereof, you shall be entitled to receive a Bonus only if you are
employed by the Company on the date such Bonus is scheduled to be paid. Subject to Section 4, the Company shall pay each Bonus, if any, as soon as administratively possible following the end of the Plan Year just then ended, but in any event no
later than forty-five (45) days after the end of such Plan Year. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Plan Year” is the twelve (12) month period beginning January through and including December. Your initial Plan
Year hereunder shall begin on January 1, 2010.

 (c) Equity Compensation. In connection with your existing employment
relationship with the Company and the terms of the (i) Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2006, you received an option to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share
(“Common Stock”), (ii) Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2007, you received an option to purchase 69,470 shares Common Stock, (iii) Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, dated as of
January 23, 2008, you received an option to purchase 30,000 shares of Common Stock, and (iv) Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, dated as of June 11, 2008, you received an option to purchase 22,500 shares of Common Stock
(collectively and respectively, the “Existing Option Agreements” and the “Existing Option Grants”). Except as otherwise provided in Section 4(e) herein, the terms of the Existing Option Agreements
remain unchanged by the execution of this Agreement.
 (d) Vacation. You will be entitled to five
(5) weeks paid vacation in each calendar year and paid holidays and personal days in accordance with the Company’s policies for its senior executives as in effect from time to time. All vacation days will be taken at times mutually agreed
by you and the Company and will be subject to the business needs of the Company. You may accrue unused vacation days up to one and one-half times your annual vacation allotment such that you shall be entitled to no more than seven and a half
(7.5) weeks paid vacation at any time during any calendar year. 
 (e) Fringe Benefits. You will be
entitled to participate in employee benefit plans which the Company provides or may establish for the benefit of its senior executives generally, for example, group life, disability, medical, dental and other insurance, retirement, pension,
profit-sharing and similar plans (collectively, the “Fringe Benefits”). Your eligibility to participate in the Fringe Benefits and receive benefits thereunder will be subject to the plan documents governing such Fringe
Benefits. Nothing contained herein will require the Company to establish or maintain any Fringe Benefits. 
 (f)
Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company shall reimburse you for all ordinary and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that are reasonably incurred by you in furtherance of the Company’s business in accordance with the Company’s policies
with respect thereto as in effect from time to time. You must submit any request for reimbursement no later than ninety (90) days following the date that such business expense is incurred, and business expenses must be substantiated by receipts
and documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Company. All approved business expenses shall be reimbursed by the Company to you within one (1) month of submission of appropriate receipts and documentation. If a business expense reimbursement
is not exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), any reimbursement in one calendar year shall not affect the amount that may be reimbursed in any
other calendar year and a reimbursement (or right thereto) may not be exchanged or liquidated for another benefit or payment. Any business expense reimbursements subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made no later than the
end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such business expense is incurred by you.

 3. Term of Employment. 

(a) Term; Termination. Subject to the terms hereof, your employment hereunder will commence on January 1, 2010
(the “Commencement Date”) and will continue until the first to occur of the following: 

(i) Immediately upon your death; 
 (ii) By the Company: 
 (A) By written notice to you effective the
date of such notice, following your failure, due to illness, accident or any other physical or mental incapacity, to perform the essential functions of your position for an aggregate of ninety (90) business days within any period of one hundred
and eighty (180) consecutive business days during the term hereof as determined by a physician selected by you (“Disability”), provided that if applicable law provides any provision regarding disability that is
more favorable to you than that set forth herein, such more favorable provision will govern, and provided further that if and only to the extent that your Disability is a trigger for the payment of deferred compensation, as defined in
Section 409A of the Code, “Disability” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code; or 
 (B) By written notice to you effective the date of such notice, with or without Cause; 
 (iii) By you: 
 (A) Without Good Reason at any time by written
notice to the Company effective ninety (90) days after the date of such notice; or 
 (B) Provided you have
not previously been notified of the Company’s intention to terminate your employment, you may resign for Good Reason at any time by written notice to the Company effective sixty (60) days after the date of such notice; provided,
however, that prior to any termination for Good Reason, you must provide notice to the Company of the existence of a condition described in Section 3(b)(ii) of this Agreement within ten (10) days of the date that you learn of the
initial existence of such condition and the Company shall have a period of sixty (60) days in which to remedy such condition. Any termination by you shall not be treated as a termination for Good Reason and shall instead be treated as a
termination by you under Section 3(a)(iii)(A) of this Agreement, if you fail to provide the aforementioned notice within the ten (10) day period or if the Company remedies the situation within the aforementioned sixty (60) period.

 (b) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement: 

(i) “Cause” means (A) any conduct that constitutes a felony under applicable law, either in
connection with the performance of your obligations to the Company or which otherwise materially and adversely affects your ability to perform such obligations, (B) your willful disloyalty or deliberate dishonesty in the performance of your

as of May 26, 2006 (the “Proprietary Agreement”), which breach, if reasonably curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days after delivery to you by the Company of written notice of such breach. With respect to any
such determination, the Board will act fairly and in utmost good faith. No act or omission on your part will be considered “willful” unless done, or admitted to be done, by you in bad faith or without your reasonable belief that such act
or omission was in the best interest of the Company. 
 (ii) “Good Reason” means:
(i) without your written consent, a material reduction by the Company of your Base Salary as in effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time, unless similarly situated Company executives also are subject to a

Company to over fifty (50) miles away from the Company’s existing La Jolla, California facility; or (iii) a material adverse change by the Company in your duties, authority or responsibilities as Vice President and General Manager (La
Jolla) as set forth on Schedule 1 which causes your position with the Company to become of less responsibility or authority than your position as of immediately following the Commencement Date, provided that the Company shall have
sixty (60) days from the date of the written notice set forth in Section 3(a)(iii)(B) in which to cure any alleged action or omission giving rise to the Good Reason, in which case there shall be no Good Reason.

termination. 
 (c) Termination for Cause; Voluntary Termination. If your employment hereunder is
terminated by the Company for Cause or by you pursuant to Section 3(a)(iii), the Company will pay the Accrued Obligations to you within ninety (90) days following such termination; provided, however, the Company shall have no

remain eligible for continued coverage under COBRA, or, if applicable, state insurance laws, the Company shall pay that portion of your COBRA premiums that the Company was paying prior to the effective date of termination for such six- or

therein. You agree to accept the aforementioned severance compensation as liquidated damages for your termination under the provisions of this Section, and understand and agree that such liquidated damages are in lieu of all other compensation and
benefits owed to you under any and all other provisions of this Agreement and further constitute reasonable compensation for losses that you may incur and are not a penalty. 

(e) Options. If your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or by you for Good
Reason within six (6) months after a Change of Control, the Existing Option Grants will become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of such termination and the Existing Option Agreements are hereby amended accordingly. 

(f) Six-Month Delay if Specified Employee. In the event that as of the date of your termination
from employment you are a Specified Employee (as defined below) and the Company has stock that is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise, any severance to which you would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement during
the first six (6) months following your date of termination shall be accumulated and paid to you as provided in this Section 4(f). In the event your employment is terminated as a result of your death, any severance shall be paid at the
time and in the manner provided in section 4(b) above. Further, any portion of severance provided in Section 4(d) shall be paid at the time and in the manner provided in Section 4(d) above, but only to the extent that such payments do not

single lump sum as of the earlier of the ninetieth

Agreement, the “409A Severance Limit” means the lesser of (i) two (2) times your annualized compensation 

  
 7 








 
(based on your annual rate of pay for the taxable year preceding the taxable year in which your employment is terminated) or (ii) two (2) times the maximum amount of compensation that
can be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which your employment is terminated. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Specified Employee” means a
“Specified Employee” as defined for purposes of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), as amended from time to time. You acknowledge that such definition currently includes: (i) an owner of more than five percent
(5%) of the stock of the Company; (ii) an owner of more than one percent (1%) of the stock of the Company who has compensation from the Company in excess of $150,000 per calendar year (not indexed); or (iii) an officer of the
Company with compensation in excess of $145,000 per calendar year (for 2007), as adjusted under Section 416(i)(1) of the Code. Determination of the identity of Specified Employees shall be made as of December 31 each year (the
“Specified Employee Identification Date”) and such determination shall be effective for each twelve (12) month period extending from January 1 through December 31 of the year following the Specified Employee
Identification Date.

(iii) You further acknowledge that, while you are employed hereunder, the Company Group will furnish, disclose or make
available to you Confidential Information (as defined below) related to the business of the Company Group and that the Company Group may provide you with unique and specialized training. You also acknowledge that such Confidential Information and
such training have been developed and will be developed by the Company Group through the expenditure by the Company Group of substantial time, effort and money and that all such Confidential Information and training could be used by you to compete
with the Company Group. You also acknowledge that if you become employed or affiliated with any Competitive Company in violation of your obligations in this Agreement, it is inevitable that you would disclose the Confidential Information to such
competitor and would use such Confidential Information, knowingly or unknowingly, on behalf of such competitor. Further, while you are employed hereunder, you will be introduced to customers and others with important relationships to the Company
Group. You acknowledge that any and all “goodwill” created through such introductions belongs exclusively to the

Company Group, including, without limitation, any goodwill created as a result of direct or indirect contacts or relationships between yourself and any customers of the Company Group. 

(iv) For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any information concerning
the organization, business (including products and technology) or finances of the Company or of any third party that the Company is under an obligation to keep confidential that is maintained by the Company as confidential. Such Confidential
Information shall include, but is not limited to, trade secrets or confidential information respecting inventions, products, technology, data, test results, designs, methods, formulae, know-how, show-how, techniques, systems, processes, software
programs, works of authorship, research and development, agreements with customers or other entities or individuals, data, specifications, customer (existing and prospective) and supplier identification, financials, product cost and profit
information, projects, plans and proposals. 
 (b) Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. While you are
employed hereunder and for a period of one (1) year following the termination of your employment hereunder for any reason or for no reason, you will not, without the prior written consent of the Company: 

(i) For yourself or on behalf of any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, either as principal, partner,
stockholder, officer, director, member employee, consultant, agent, representative or in any other capacity, own, manage, operate or control, or be concerned, connected or employed by, or otherwise associate in any manner with, engage in or have a
financial interest in, any Competitive Company (each, a “Restricted Activity”), except that (A) nothing contained herein will preclude you from purchasing or owning securities of any such business if such securities are
publicly traded, and provided that your holdings do not exceed one percent (1%) of the issued and outstanding securities of any class of securities of such business and (B) nothing contained herein will prohibit you from engaging in
a Restricted Activity for or with respect to any subsidiary, division or affiliate or unit (each, a “Unit”) of a Competitive Company if that Unit is not engaged in any business which is competitive with the business of the
Company Group, irrespective of whether some other Unit of such Competitive Company engages in such competition (as long as you do not engage in a Restricted Activity for such other Unit); 

(ii) Either individually or on behalf of or through any third party, directly or indirectly, solicit, divert or
appropriate or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate, for the benefit of any Competitive Company, any customers or patrons of the Company Group, or any prospective customers or patrons with respect to which the Company Group has developed or

supplier to the Company Group. 
 (c) Reasonableness of Restrictions. You further recognize and
acknowledge that (i) the types of employment which are prohibited by this Section 5 are narrow and reasonable in relation to the skills which represent your principal salable asset both to the Company Group and to your other prospective
employers and (ii) the time period and the geographical scope of the provisions of this Section 5 is reasonable, legitimate and fair to you in light of the Company Group’s need to market its services and sell its products in a large
geographic area in order to have a sufficient customer base to make the Company Group’s business profitable and in light of the limited restrictions on the type of employment prohibited herein compared to the types of employment for which you
are qualified to earn your livelihood.

Agreement, and that the provisions of the Proprietary Agreement shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof.

the Proprietary Agreement to any business or enterprise which you may, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, finance, join, control or in which you may participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing or control, or with which

deliver any applications or other instruments in writing that are reasonably necessary to effectuate such insurance. 
 10.

you to any other party, or with any agreement to which you are a party or by which you are bound, including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation provision contained in any such agreement. You will indemnify and hold harmless
the Company Group and its officers, directors, security holders, partners, members, employees, agents and representatives against loss, damage, liability or expense arising from any claim based upon circumstances alleged to be inconsistent with such
