Stockholder on October 1, 2019 (the “Shares”) in connection with the Company’s acquisition of all of the

Ken Serota and Ron Saslow, dated as of July 29, 2019 (as amended on December 12, 2019, the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”);


 


WHEREAS, in connection with the Hu-Friedy

2019, the “Registration Rights Agreement”), and the Company is required, pursuant to Section 7.11 of the Purchase
and Sale Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to file

Obligation”);


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of
the Purchase and Sale Agreement, if an Offering is completed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and the amount of the
aggregate net proceeds received by the Stockholder in such Offering (the “Aggregate Post-Closing Offering Proceeds”)
is less than $35,000,117, then the Company is required, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, to pay to
the Stockholder an amount in cash equal to $35,000,117 minus the Aggregate Post-Closing Offering Proceeds (such
requirement, the “True-Up Obligation”);

the Purchase and Sale Agreement, in connection with an Offering, the Company may be required, on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth therein, to make certain payments to the Stockholder in respect of certain tax matters (such requirement, the “Tax
Gross-Up Obligation”);


 


WHEREAS, in lieu of the Company completing
an Offering, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement to cause the Shares to be repurchased by the Company and to satisfy
all of their rights and obligations with respect to the Resale Obligation, the True-Up Obligation and the Tax Gross-Up Obligation
and to terminate the Registration Rights Agreement effective as of and conditional upon the Closing (as defined below) and without
any continuing liability or obligation of either Party, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;
and


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration,

of Shares.


 


(a)       On
the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Company and the Stockholder hereby acknowledge and agree that, upon

with respect to the Resale Obligation shall be satisfied and (ii) Section 2.11(a) and related provisions of the Purchase and Sale

(b)        On
the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Stockholder shall sell, assign, transfer and deliver
