              Terms
                and Conditions of Employment.

            

    

     

    (a) Employment.
      The
      Company hereby employs the Employee as its President and the Employee accepts
      such employment with the Company in such capacity and agrees to serve as
      President as long as the Employee is appointed to such position, subject to
      the
      terms and conditions hereof. The Employee shall report to the Chief Executive
      Officer of the Company and shall have such authority and responsibilities not
      inconsistent with the Employee’s position as shall reasonably be assigned to the
      Employee from time to time.

     

    (b) Exclusivity.
      Throughout the Employee’s employment hereunder, the Employee shall devote
      substantially all the Employee’s time, energy and skill during regular business
      hours to the performance of the duties of the Employee’s employment (vacations
      and reasonable absences due to illness excepted), shall faithfully and
      industriously perform such duties, and shall diligently follow and implement
      all
      management policies and decisions of the Company.

     

    (c) Adjustment
      and Consultancy.
      

     

    (i) During
      the term of the Employee’s employment, Employee will meet once per calendar
      quarter with the Chief Executive Officer of the Theragenics Corporation (“CEO”)
      (or upon such other schedule as the Employee and the CEO may separately agree)
      to review and discuss the transition of the Employee’s day-to-day operational
      responsibilities from the Employee to other members of management of the Company
      (the “Transition”), using any quantitative or qualitative evidence they choose.
      Based on this review and discussion, the Employee and CEO agree to negotiate
      in
      good faith in determining the timing and extent to which the Employee can reduce
      his day to day operational responsibilities and reduce the number of hours
      per
      week devoted to his job responsibilities at the Company. If the Employee’s
      regularly-scheduled working hours are reduced below forty (40) hours per week,
      Employee and the Company agree that there shall be a proportional downward
      adjustment in the Employee’s base salary under Section 3(a), notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained therein. Not withstanding the foregoing,
      the
      Employee’s base salary cannot be reduced to less than 50% of his base salary at
      the time his regularly scheduled working hours are reduced below 40 hours per
      week.

    (ii) The
      parties specifically contemplate that, at some future date, the Transition
      will
      result in the Employee ceasing to be an employee of the Company by virtue of
      his
      diminishing day-to-day operational responsibilities. At such time as the
      Employee and the Company agree, they shall execute an independent contractor
      agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit
      A
      hereto,
      at which point the Employee shall cease to be an employee of the Company and
      shall become a consultant to the Company. The Company’s obligation to enter into
      the consulting agreement described in this Section 2(c)(ii) will be contingent
      upon the Employee executing and providing to the Company (and not revoking
      within the revocation period, if any, provided pursuant to the applicable
      release agreement) the form of release agreement attached hereto as Exhibit
      B,
      Exhibit
      C,
      or
Exhibit
      D,
      whichever is determined by the Company to be appropriate. The Employee shall
      execute the release within such period as is provided for in the applicable
      release agreement, following the Company’s provision of such release agreement
      to the Employee in connection with the Employee’s termination of employment.
      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the termination of the
      Employee’s employment under this Section 2(c)(ii) and the execution of the
      agreement described in this Section 2(c)(ii) shall be deemed to be a termination
      of employment under Section 4(b)(i).

     

    
      	3.

      Company may approve an increase in (but may not decrease) the Employee’s annual
      base salary from time to time. The Company shall pay annual base salary in
      accordance with the normal payroll payment practices of the Company and subject
      to such deductions and withholdings as law or policies of the Company, from

      Based Compensation.

      discretion of the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, and pursuant
      to the stock incentive plan, of the Company or Theragenics

      The
      Employee shall be entitled to be reimbursed in accordance with the policies
      of
      the Company, as adopted and amended from time to time, for all reasonable and
      necessary expenses incurred by the Employee in connection with the performance
      of the Employee’s duties of employment hereunder; provided, however, the
      Employee shall, as a condition of such reimbursement, submit verification of
      the
      nature and amount of such expenses in accordance with the reimbursement policies
      from time to time adopted by the Company.

     

    (k) Benefits.
      In
      addition to the benefits payable to the Employee specifically described herein,
      the Employee shall be entitled to such benefits as generally may be made

      to
      time; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall require the
      establishment or continuation of any particular plan or program.

    (a) Term.
      The
      term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence as of the date of the Closing
      (the “Commencement Date”) and shall expire on the second (2nd)
      anniversary of the Commencement Date, with automatic extensions for successive
      additional one-year terms, as provided herein. Ninety (90) days before the
      second (2nd)
      anniversary of the Commencement Date and ninety (90) days before each subsequent
      anniversary of the Commencement Date, the Agreement is extended for an
      additional one year period unless either party gives prior notice of
      termination. In the event prior notice of termination is given, this Agreement
      shall terminate at the end of the remaining Term then in effect.

    (b) Termination.
      The
      Employee’s employment by the Company hereunder may only be terminated before
      expiration of the Term (i) by mutual agreement of the Employee and the Company;
      (ii) by the Employee with Good Reason; (iii) by the Employee without Good Reason
      upon not less than thirty (30) days written prior notice to the Company; (iv)
      by
      the Company without Cause; (v) by the Company for Cause; or (vi) by the Company
      or the Employee due to the Disability of the Employee. This Agreement shall
      also
      terminate immediately upon the death of the Employee. Notice of termination
      by
      either the Company or the Employee shall be given in writing and shall specify
      the basis
      for
      termination and the effective date of termination.

     

    (c) Effect
      of Termination.
      Upon
      termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder, the Company and its
      Affiliates shall have no further obligation to the Employee or the Employee’s
      estate with respect to this Agreement, except for payment of salary and bonus
      amounts, if any, accrued pursuant to Section 3(a) or 3(b) hereof and unpaid
      at
      the Termination Date previously incurred and unreimbursed expenses in accordance
      with Sections 3(e), 3(f), 3(g) and 3(j) hereof, and termination payments, if
      any, set forth in Section 4(e) or 4(f) hereof, as applicable, subject to the
      provisions of Section 11 hereof. Neither Section 4(e) nor 4(f) applies to a
      Termination due to the Employee’s Disability or death. Nothing contained herein
      shall limit or impinge any other rights or remedies of the Company, its
      Affiliates or the Employee under any other agreement or plan to which the
      Employee is a party or of which the Employee is a beneficiary.

     

    (d) Survival.
      The
      covenants of the Employee in Sections 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 hereof shall survive
      the
      termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder and shall not be extinguished
      thereby.

     

    (e) Certain
      Terminations not in Connection with a Change in Control.
      If
      either the Company terminates the Employee’s employment without Cause or the
      Employee terminates the Employee’s employment for Good Reason, and in either
      event a Change in Control has not occurred within the one year preceding the
      termination of employment and does not occur within ninety (90) days after
      the
      termination of employment, the Company shall be obligated to continue to pay
      the
      Employee the Employee’s annual base salary at the time of termination of
      employment for two (2) years after
      termination of employment. Payments made under this Section 4(e) shall be paid
      as a salary continuation on the same schedule that applied while the Employee
      was employed, provided, however, that no payment hereunder shall be paid until
      sixty (60) days after the Employee’s termination of employment, at which time
      the Employee shall be paid a lump sum equal to the payments accumulated to
      such
      date, and thereafter payment of the unpaid balance shall continue on what would
      have otherwise been the original payment schedule for such unpaid balance.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the payment of severance hereunder would
      fail
      to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code
      because the Employee is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section
      409A of the Internal Revenue Code), no payment hereunder shall be made until
      six
      months after the Employee’s termination of employment, at which time the
      Employee shall be paid a lump sum equal to what would otherwise have been the
      first six months’ of such payments, and thereafter payment of the unpaid balance
      shall continue on what would otherwise have been the original payment schedule
      for such unpaid balance.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        8

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (f) Certain
      Terminations in Connection with a Change in Control.
      If,
      within ninety (90) days preceding or within one year following a Change in
      Control, either the Company terminates the Employee’s employment without Cause
      or the Employee terminates the Employee’s employment for Good Reason, the
      Company shall be obligated to pay the Employee an amount equal to whichever
      of
      the following results in the Employee receiving a larger after-tax amount:
      (i)
      two (2) times the Employee’s annual base salary at the time of termination of
      employment or (ii) if less than two (2) times the Employee’s annual base salary
      at the time of termination of employment, then the largest amount that could
      be
      paid to the Employee, which will not result in a nondeductible “parachute
      payment” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. Payments made under
      this Section 4(f) shall be paid as a salary continuation on the same schedule
      that applied while the Employee was employed, provided, however, that no payment
      hereunder shall be paid until sixty (60) days after the Employee’s termination
      of employment, at which time the Employee shall be paid a lump sum equal to
      the
      payments accumulated to such date, and thereafter payment of the unpaid balance
      shall continue on what would have otherwise been the original payment schedule
      for such unpaid balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the payment of
      severance hereunder would fail to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(1)
      of
      the Internal Revenue Code because the Employee is a “specified employee” (within
      the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code), no payment hereunder
      shall be made until six months after the Employee’s termination of employment,
      at which time the Employee shall be paid a lump sum equal to what would
      otherwise have been the first six months’ of such payments, and thereafter
      payment of the unpaid balance shall continue on what would otherwise have been
      the original payment schedule for such unpaid balance.

     

    (g) Notwithstanding
      any other provision hereof, the Company’s obligation to pay the severance
      benefit set forth in Section 4(e) or 4(f), if applicable, will be contingent
      upon the Employee executing and providing to the Company (and not revoking
      within the revocation period, if any, provided pursuant to the applicable
      release agreement) the form of release agreement attached hereto as Exhibit
      B,
      Exhibit
      C,
      or
Exhibit
      D,
      whichever is determined by the Company to be appropriate. The Employee shall
      execute the release within such period as is provided for in the applicable
      release agreement, following the Company’s provision of such release agreement
      to the Employee in connection with the Employee’s termination of
      employment.

              Agreement
                Not to Compete and Not to Solicit Customers.

            

    

    

    (a) Agreement
      Not to Compete.
      The
      Employee agrees that commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing through
      the Applicable Period, the Employee will not (except on behalf of or with the
      prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in Company’s
      sole discretion), within the Area, either directly or indirectly, on the
      Employee’s own behalf, or in the service of or on behalf of others, provide
      services of a similar type or nature as the Employee performs for the Company
      to
      any Competing Business. For purposes of this Section 5, the Employee
      acknowledges and agrees that the Business of the Company is conducted in the
      Area.

    (b) Agreement
      Not to Solicit Customers.
      The
      Employee further agrees that beginning on the Commencement Date and throughout
      the Applicable Period within the Area, the Employee will not, directly or
      indirectly, on the Employee’s own behalf, or on behalf of any third party,
      entity or business, divert, solicit, or attempt to divert or solicit to a
      Competing Business for the purpose of providing products or services in
      competition with the Business of the Company to any individual or entity (a)
      who
      is a Customer at any time during the last twelve (12)-month period of the
      Employee’s employment with the Company, or who was within such period a
      Prospective Customer, and (b) in either case, with whom the Employee had
      material contact on the Company’s or an Affiliate’s behalf. For purposes of this
      Agreement, “material contact” exists between the Employee and each Customer or
      actively sought Prospective Customer (i) with whom the Employee dealt on behalf
      of Company or an Affiliate; (ii) whose dealings with Company or an Affiliate
      were coordinated or supervised by the Employee; or (iii) about whom the Employee
      obtained Confidential Information in the course of the Employee’s providing
      services to Company or an Affiliate. For purposes of this Agreement, “Customer”
means any individual or entity from whom the Company or an Affiliate has
      solicited sales or provided targeted marketing or other services, and a
“Prospective Customer” means any individual or entity the Company or an
      Affiliate has identified as a potential Customer as part of any long-term or
      strategic plan.

    The
      Employee agrees that commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing through
      the Applicable Period, the Employee will not, either directly or indirectly,
      on
      the Employee’s own behalf or in the service of or on behalf of others, solicit,
      divert or hire, or
      attempt to solicit, divert or hire, to any Competing Business in the Area any
      person employed by the Company or an Affiliate with whom the Employee has had
      material contact during the Employee’s employment, whether or not such employee
      is a full-time employee or a temporary employee of the Company or an Affiliate
      and whether or not such employment is pursuant to written agreement and whether
      or not such employment is for a determined period or is at will.

    (a) Confidentiality.
      All
      Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and all physical embodiments thereof
      received or developed by the Employee while employed by the Company are
      confidential to and are and will remain the sole and exclusive property of
      the
      Company. Except to the extent necessary to perform the duties assigned to the
      Employee by the Company, the Employee will hold such Confidential Information
      and Trade Secrets in trust and strictest confidence, and will not use,
      reproduce, distribute, disclose or otherwise disseminate the Confidential
      Information and Trade Secrets or any physical embodiments thereof and may in
      no
      event take any action causing or fail to take the action necessary in order
      to
      prevent, any Confidential Information and Trade Secrets disclosed to or
      developed by the Employee to lose its character or cease to qualify as
      Confidential Information or Trade Secrets.

    

    (b) Return
      of Company Property.
      Upon
      request by the Company, and in any event upon termination of the employment
      of
      the Employee with the Company for any reason, as a prior condition to receiving

      Section 4(e) or 4(f) hereof), the Employee will promptly deliver to the
      Company all property belonging to the Company, including, without limitation,
      all Confidential Information and Trade Secrets (and all embodiments thereof)
      then in the Employee’s custody, control or possession.

      covenants of confidentiality set forth herein will apply on and after the date
      hereof to any Confidential Information and Trade Secrets disclosed by the

      covenants restricting the use of Confidential Information will continue and
      be
      maintained by the Employee for a period of two (2) years following the
      termination of this Agreement. The covenants restricting the use of Trade
      Secrets will continue and be maintained by the Employee following termination
      of
      this Agreement for so long as permitted by the Georgia Trade Secrets Act of
      1990, O.C.G.A. § 10-1-760, et seq. and as amended hereafter.

    

    
      	8.	
              Inventions.

            

    

    

    (a) Company
      Inventions.
      The
      Employee agrees that all Company Inventions conceived or first reduced to
      practice by the Employee during the Term or prior to the Term while an employee
      of or consultant of the Company, and all patent rights and copyrights to such
      Company Inventions shall become and remain the property of the Company, and
      the
      Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally sells, transfers, conveys,
      assigns and delivers to Company (a) Employee’s entire worldwide right,
      title and interest in and to the Company Inventions, any continuations,
      continuations-in-part, divisionals, reissues, re-exams, or extensions thereof,
      together with the right to sue for and recover and retain damages with respect
      to past infringements of the Company Inventions by third parties, both foreign
      and domestic, the same to be held and enjoyed by Company for the Company’s own
      use and enjoyment, and for the use and enjoyment of its successors, assigns
      or
      other legal representatives as fully and entirely as the same would have been
      held and enjoyed by Employee if this assignment had not been made, (b) all
      applications for industrial property protection, including, without limitation,
      all applications for patents, utility models and designs which may heretofore
      have been filed or may hereafter be filed for said inventions in any country,
      together with the right to file such applications and the right to claim the
      same priority rights derived from said patent applications under the patent
      laws
      of the United States, the International Convention for the Protection of
      Industrial Property, or any international agreement or the domestic laws of
      the
      country in which any such application is filed, as may be applicable, and
      (c) all forms of industrial property protection, including, without
      limitation, patents, utility models and designs which may heretofore have been
      granted or may hereafter be granted for said inventions in any country and
      all
      extensions, renewals and reissues thereof If the Employee conceives an Invention
      during the Term of this Agreement for which there is a reasonable basis to
      believe that the conceived Invention is a Company Invention, the Employee shall
      promptly provide a written description of the conceived Invention to the Company
      adequate to allow evaluation thereof for a determination by the Company as
      to
      whether the Invention is a Company Invention. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      the
      provisions of this Section 8(a) shall not apply to any Invention that the
      Employee may develop without using the Company’s equipment, supplies,
      facilities, or trade secret information, except for any Inventions that either
      (i) relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the Invention
      to the Business of the Company, or to actual or demonstrably anticipated
      research or development of the Company; or (ii) result from any work performed
      by the Employee for the Company.

    (b) Prior
      Inventions.
      If
      prior
      to the Commencement Date the Employee conceived any Invention or acquired any
      ownership interest in any Invention which (i) is the property of the Employee,
      or of which the Employee is a joint owner with another person or entity, (ii)
      is
      not described in any issued patent as of the Commencement Date, and (iii) would
      be a Company Invention if such Invention were made during the Term of this
      Agreement, then (A) with respect to any such Invention described in Exhibit
      E
      attached
      hereto, the Employee hereby agrees that such written description (but no rights
      to the Invention) is and shall remain the property of the Company and (B) with
      respect to any such Invention not described in Exhibit
      E
      attached
      hereto, the Employee hereby grants to the Company a nonexclusive, paid up,
      royalty-free license to use and practice such Invention, including a license
      under all patents to issue in any country which pertain to such
      Invention. 

    

    (c) Prior
      Patents.
      The
      Employee represents to the Company that the Employee owns or has rights to
      no
      patents or copyrights, individually or jointly with others, except those
      described in Exhibit
      E
      attached
      hereto.

    

    (d) Patent
      Applications.
      The
      Employee agrees that should the Company elect to file an application for patent
      protection, either in the United States or in any foreign country, on a Company
      Invention of which the Employee was an inventor, the Employee for the Employee
      and
      the
      Employee’s successors, heirs and assigns, but at Company’s expense, shall
      execute all applications, amended specifications, deeds or other instruments,
      and to do all acts necessary or proper to secure the grant of Letters Patent
      in
      the United States and in all other countries to the Company, with specifications
      and claims in such form as shall be approved by the counsel of the Company
      and
      to vest and confirm in Company its successors and assigns, the legal title
      to
      all such patents.
      The
      Employee further agrees to cooperate with any attorneys or other persons
      designated by the Company by explaining the nature of any Company Invention
      for
      which the Company elects to file an application for patent protection, reviewing
      applications and other papers and providing any other cooperation reasonably
      required for orderly prosecution of such patent applications; provided, however,
      that if the Employee is required to provide such assistance after the Employee
      has left employment with the Company, the Company shall pay the Employee an
      hourly rate for the Employee’s assistance, which shall be determined by
      converting the Employee’s annual salary as in effect upon termination of the
      Employee’s employment with the Company into an hourly rate of pay. The Company
      shall be responsible for all expenses incurred for the preparation and
      prosecution of all patent applications on Company Inventions filed by the
      Company. 
      Employee agrees, and Employee further authorizes and grants a limited power
      of
      attorney to the Company or its designee, to execute on Employee’s behalf any
      documents necessary to evidence the assignments granted herein for the United
      States or any other country without further notice to Employee.

    (a) Ownership
      and Assignment.
      The
      Employee acknowledges and agrees that any Works created by the Employee in
      the
      course of the Employee’s employment during the Term or prior to the Term while
      an employee of or consultant to the Company, are subject to the “Work for Hire”
provisions contained in Sections 101 and 201 of the United States
      Copyright Law, Title 17 of the United States Code, and that all right,
      title and interest to copyrights in all Works which have been or will be
      prepared by the Employee within the scope of the Employee’s employment hereunder
      shall be the property of the Company.  The Employee further acknowledges
      and agrees that, to the extent the provisions of Title 17 of the United
      States Code do not vest in the Company the copyrights to any Works, the Employee
      hereby assigns to the Company all right, title and interest to copyrights which
      the Employee may have in such Works, including the right to sue for and recover
      and retain damages with respect to past infringement.

    (b) Registration.
      The
      Employee agrees to disclose to the Company all Works referred to in the
      immediately preceding paragraph and execute and deliver all applications for
      registration, registrations, and other documents relating to the copyrights
      to
      the Works and provide such additional assistance, as the Company may deem
      necessary and desirable to secure the Company’s title to the copyrights in the
      Works.  The Company shall be responsible for all expenses incurred in
      connection with the registration of all such copyrights.

    

    (c) Prior
      Works.
      The

              Miscellaneous.

            

    

    

    (a) Assignment. 
      Neither this Agreement nor any right of the parties hereunder may be assigned
      or
      delegated by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other
      party.

    

    (b) Waiver. 
      The waiver by the Company of any breach of this Agreement by the Employee shall
      not be effective unless in writing, and no such waiver shall constitute the
      waiver of the same or another breach on a subsequent occasion.

    

    (c) Arbitration. 
      Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the
      breach thereof, shall be adjudicated through binding arbitration before a single
      arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
      Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in Atlanta, Georgia, with the Company bearing
      responsibility for the filing costs charged by the AAA for such arbitration.
      However the provisions of this Section will not prevent the Company from
      instituting an action in a court of law under this Agreement for specific
      performance of this Agreement or temporary or permanent injunctive relief as
      provided in Section 11 hereof. The parties hereto agree that the exclusive
      venue
      for any such lawsuit will be Gwinnett County, Georgia and the Employee consents
      to the exercise of personal jurisdiction by the Superior Court of Gwinnett
      County for the purposes of such lawsuit.

     

    Any
      party
      who desires to submit a claim to arbitration in accordance with this Section
      shall file its demand for arbitration with AAA within thirty (30) days of the
      event or incident
      giving rise to the claim. A copy of said demand shall be served on the other
      party in accordance with the notice provisions in Section 13 of this Agreement.
      The parties agree that they shall attempt in good faith to select an arbitrator
      by mutual agreement within twenty (20) days after the responding party’s receipt
      of the demand for arbitration. If the parties do not agree on the selection
      of
      an arbitrator within that timeframe, the selection shall be made pursuant to
      the
      rules from the panels of arbitrators maintained by the AAA. If the Employee
      prevails in the dispute, the Company will pay and be financially responsible
      for
      all costs, expenses, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses of the
      arbitrator incurred by the Employee (or the Employee’s estate in the event of
      the Employee’s death) in connection with the dispute. Any award rendered by the
      arbitrator shall be accompanied by a written opinion providing the reasons
      for
      the award. 

     

    By
      initialing below, the Company and the Employee indicate their agreement to
      this
      Section 14(c).

      Company: /s/MCJ
      (initials of Company representative)

    By
      Employee: /s/JE
      (initials of Employee)

     

    The
      arbitrator’s award shall be final and non-appealable. Nothing in this Subsection
      shall prevent the parties from settling any dispute or controversy by mutual
      agreement at any time.

      Agreement shall be construed and enforced under and in accordance with the
      laws
      of the State of Georgia.

    

    (e) Entire
      Agreement. 
      This Agreement embodies the entire agreement of the parties hereto relating
      to
      the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral agreements, and to the extent
      inconsistent with the terms hereof, all other written agreements. 

    

    (f) Amendment. 
      This Agreement may not be modified, amended, supplemented or terminated except
      by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.

    

    (g) Severability.

      separate, severable and independent covenants, and in the event that any
      covenant shall be declared invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction,
      such

      enforceability of any other part or provision of such covenant or of any other

    INDEPENDENT
      CONTRACTOR CONSULTING AGREEMENT

    

    THIS
      AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of the _____ day of
      ____________________, 200_ (the “Effective Date”), between GALT MEDICAL
      CORPORATION, a Texas corporation (“the Company”), and JAMES EDDINGS (the
“Contractor”).

    

    INTRODUCTION

    

    Pursuant
      to Section 2(c) of that certain employment agreement dated _________ between
      the
      Contractor and the Company, the Company and the Contractor now desire to enter
      into an agreement pursuant to which the Contractor will provide services to
      the
      Company from and after the Effective Date, upon the terms set forth
      below.

    

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

    

    
      	1.	
              Terms
                and Conditions of Engagement.

            

    

    

    (a) Engagement.
      The
      Contractor shall perform such consulting and advisory services to the Company
      as
      the Company may require from time to time. Consultant shall report to the Board
      of Directors of the Company or to such person(s) as the Company shall
      designate.

    

    (b) Contractor
      Relationship.
      The
      Contractor is an independent contractor to the Company, not an employee of
      the
      Company. The Contractor is not an agent of the Company and shall have no right
      to bind the Company. The Company will report all payments to be made hereunder
      on Forms 1099 as payments to the Contractor for independent contracting
      services, and will not report any payments on Form W-2 to the Contractor. The
      Contractor shall not be treated for any purposes as an employee of the Company
      and shall not be entitled to participate in any employee benefits plans or
      programs of the Company. This is a personal services contract for the services
      of the Contractor. The Contractor cannot satisfy the terms and conditions of
      this Agreement by making anyone else available to perform his services. The
      Contractor shall devote sufficient business time and efforts to the performance
      of services for the Company to complete the services within the time frames
      for
      completion established by the Company. The Contractor shall use his best efforts
      in such endeavors. The Contractor shall also perform his services with a level
      of care, skill, and diligence that a prudent professional acting in a like
      capacity and familiar with such matters would use.

    

    
      	2.	
              Compensation.

            

    

    

    (a) Fees.
      

    

    (i) The
      Company shall pay to the Contractor a total of $100,000 for his services
      hereunder for each twelve (12)-month period of the Term, which shall be paid
      in
      substantially equal twice monthly installments in arrears. Notwithstanding
      the
      foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated by the Company without Cause, it
      shall pay the Contractor the remainder of the fee even though the Contractor’s
      services have not been fully performed.

     

    

    (ii) Notwithstanding
      any other provision hereof, the Company’s obligation to pay the severance
      benefit set forth in Section 2(a)(i), if applicable, will be contingent upon
      the
      Contractor executing and providing to the Company (and not revoking within
      the
      revocation period, if any, provided pursuant to the applicable release
      agreement) the form of release agreement attached hereto as Exhibit
      1,
      Exhibit
      2,
      or
Exhibit
      3,
      whichever is determined by the Company to be appropriate. The Contractor shall
      execute the release within such period as is provided for in the applicable
      release agreement, following the Company’s provision of such release agreement
      to the Contractor in connection with the termination of the Contractor’s
      engagement.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        18

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

    (b) Expenses.
      The
      Contractor shall be entitled to be reimbursed in accordance with the policies
      of
      the Company, as adopted and amended from time to time, for all reasonable and
      necessary expenses and business travel incurred by the Contractor in connection
      with the performance of services hereunder; provided, however, the Contractor
      shall, as a condition of such reimbursement, submit verification of the nature
      and amount of such expenses in accordance with the reimbursement policies from
      time to time adopted by the Company.

    

    
      	3.	
              Term,
                Termination and Termination Payments.

            

    

    

    (a) Term.
      The
      Term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and will run
      until the day before the first anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial
      Term”). At the end of the Initial Term and at the end of any Renewal Term (as
      hereinafter defined), this Agreement shall automatically be extended for a
      successive twelve-month period (the “Renewal Term”) unless either party gives
      written notice to the other of its intent not to extend this Agreement with
      such
      written notice to be given not less than ninety (90) days prior to the end
      of
      the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event such notice of
      non-extension is properly given, this Agreement shall terminate at the end
      of
      the remaining Term then in effect. Throughout this Agreement, “Term” shall refer
      to the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as applicable. 

    

    (b) Termination.
      This
      Agreement and the engagement of the Contractor by the Company hereunder shall
      only be terminated: (i) by expiration of the Term set forth in Section 3(a)
      hereof; (ii) by mutual agreement of the parties; (iii) by the Company
      without Cause; (iv) by the Company for Cause; or (v) during any Renewal
      Term, but not the Initial Term, by the Contractor for any reason upon not less
      than thirty (30) days written prior notice to the Company. Notice of termination
      by any party shall be given prior to termination in writing and shall specify
      the basis for termination and the effective date of termination. Except as
      provided in Section 2(a) hereof, the Contractor shall not be entitled to any
      payments after termination of this Agreement.

    

    (c) Survival.
      The
      covenants of the Contractor in Sections 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 hereof shall
      survive the termination of this Agreement and shall not be extinguished
      thereby.

    

    
      
        
          	4.	
                  Agreement
                    Not to Compete and Not to Solicit Customers.

                

        

      

    

    

    (a) Agreement
      Not to Compete.

              Inventions.

            

    

    

    (a) Company
      Inventions.
      The
      Contractor agrees that all Company Inventions conceived or first reduced to
      practice by the Contractor during the Term or prior to the Term while an
      employee of or consultant to the Company, and all patent rights and copyrights
      to such Company Inventions shall become and remain the property of the Company,
      and the Contractor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally sells, transfers,
      conveys, assigns and delivers to Company (i) Contractor’s entire worldwide
      right, title and interest in and to the Company Inventions, any continuations,
      continuations-in-part, divisionals, reissues, re-exams, or extensions thereof,
      together with the right to sue for and recover and retain damages with respect
      to past infringements of the Company Inventions by third parties, both foreign
      and domestic, the same to be held and enjoyed by Company for the Company’s own
      use and enjoyment, and for the use and enjoyment of its successors, assigns
      or
      other legal representatives as fully and entirely as the same would have been
      held and enjoyed by Contractor if this assignment had not been made, (ii) all
      applications for industrial property protection, including, without limitation,
      all applications for patents, utility models and designs which may heretofore
      have been filed or may hereafter be filed for said inventions in any country,
      together with the right to file such applications and the right to claim the
      same priority rights derived from said patent applications under the patent
      laws
      of the United States, the International Convention for the Protection of
      Industrial Property, or any international agreement or the domestic laws of
      the
      country in which any such application is filed, as may be applicable, and (iii)
      all forms of industrial property protection, including, without limitation,
      patents, utility models and designs which may heretofore have been granted
      or
      may hereafter be granted for said inventions in any country and all extensions,
      renewals and reissues thereof. If the Contractor conceives an Invention during
      the Term of this Agreement for which there is a reasonable basis to believe
      that
      the conceived Invention is a Company Invention, the Contractor shall promptly
      provide a written description of the conceived Invention to the Company adequate
      to allow evaluation thereof for a determination by the Company as to whether
      the
      Invention is a Company Invention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions
      of this Section 7(a) shall not apply to any Invention that the Contractor may
      develop without using the Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade
      secret information, except for any Inventions that either (x) relate at the
      time
      of conception or reduction to practice of the Invention to the Business of
      the
      Company, or to actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of
      the
      Company; or (xi) result from any work performed by the Contractor for the
      Company. 

    

    (b) Prior
      Inventions.
      If
      prior to the Effective Date the Contractor conceived any Invention or acquired
      any ownership interest in any Invention which (i) is the property of the
      Contractor, or of which the Contractor is a joint owner with another person
      or
      entity, (ii) is not described in any issued patent as of the Effective Date,
      and
      (iii) would be a Company Invention if such Invention were made during the Term
      of this Agreement, then (A) with respect to any such Invention described in
      Exhibit
      4
      attached
      hereto, the Contractor hereby agrees that such written description (but no
      rights to the Invention) is and shall remain the property of the Company and
      (B) with respect to any such Invention not described in Exhibit
      4
      attached
      hereto, the Contractor hereby grants to the Company a nonexclusive, paid up,
      royalty-free license to use and practice such Invention, including a license

      Contractor represents to the Company that the Contractor owns or has rights
      to
      no patents or copyrights, individually or jointly with others, except those
      described in Exhibit

      attached
      hereto.

    

    (d) Patent
      Applications.
      The
      Contractor agrees that should the Company elect to file an application for
      patent protection, either in the United States or in any foreign country, on
      a
      Company Invention of which the Contractor was an inventor, the Contractor for
      the Contractor and the Contractor’s successors, heirs and assigns, but at
      Company’s expense, shall execute all applications, amended specifications, deeds
      or other instruments, and to do all acts necessary or proper to secure the
      grant
      of Letters Patent in the United States and in all other countries to the
      Company, with specifications and claims in such form as shall be approved by
      the
      counsel of the Company and to vest and confirm in Company its successors and
      assigns, the legal title to all such patents. The Contractor further agrees
      to
      cooperate with any attorneys or other persons designated by the Company by
      explaining the nature of any Company Invention for which the Company elects
      to
      file an application for patent protection, reviewing applications and other
      papers and providing any other cooperation reasonably required for orderly
      prosecution of such patent applications; provided, however, that if the
      Contractor is required to provide such assistance after the Contractor’s
      engagement with the Company has ended for any reason whatsoever, the Company
      shall pay the Contractor an hourly rate for the Contractor’s assistance, which
      shall be determined by converting the Contractor’s annual fees as in effect upon
      termination of the Contractor’s engagement with the Company into an hourly rate
      of pay. The Company shall be responsible for all expenses incurred for the
      preparation and prosecution of all patent applications on Company Inventions
      filed by the Company. Contractor agrees, and Contractor further authorizes
      and
      grants a limited power of attorney to the Company or its designee, to execute
      on
      Contractor’s behalf any documents necessary to evidence the assignments granted
      herein for the United States or any other country without further notice to
      Contractor.

      not
      vest in the Company the copyrights to any Works, the Contractor hereby assigns

      may have in such Works, including the right to sue for and recover and retain
      damages with respect to past infringement.

      Contractor hereby represents and warrants that he is not subject to any
      employment or consulting agreement or similar document with a former employer

    RELEASE
      AGREEMENT

    

    This
      Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this _____
      day of
      __________,
      by Galt Medical Corp. (the “Company”)
      and ________________________
      (the
“Contractor”).

    

    Introduction

     

    Contractor
      and the Company entered into an Independent Contractor Consulting Agreement
      dated ______________ (the “Severance Agreement”) which provides certain
      severance benefits.

    

    The
      Severance Agreement requires that as a condition to the payment of severance
      benefits under the Severance Agreement (the “Severance Benefits”), the
      Contractor must provide a release and agree to certain other conditions.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 

     

    
      
        	1.	
                The
                  effective date of this Agreement shall be the date on which Contractor
                  signs this Agreement (“the Effective Date”), at which time this Agreement
                  shall be fully effective and enforceable. Contractor has been offered
                  twenty-one (21) days from receipt of this Agreement within which
                  to
                  consider this Agreement. Contractor understands that the Contractor
                  may
                  sign this Agreement at any time before the expiration of the twenty-one
                  (21) day review. To the degree Contractor chooses not to wait twenty-one
                  (21) days to execute this Agreement, it is because Contractor freely
                  and
                  unilaterally chooses to execute this Agreement before that time.
                  

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	2.	
                In
                  exchange for Contractor’s execution of this Agreement and in full and
                  complete settlement of any and all claims, the Company will provide
                  Contractor with the Severance Benefits.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	3.	
                The
                  release given by Contractor in this Agreement is given solely in
                  exchange
                  for the consideration set forth in this Agreement and such consideration
                  is in addition to anything of value that Contractor was entitled
                  to
                  receive prior to entering into this Agreement.

              

      

    

     

    Contractor
      has been advised to consult an attorney prior to entering into this Agreement.
      

     

    By
      entering into this Agreement, Contractor does not waive rights or claims that
      may arise after the date this Agreement is executed. 

     

    
      
        	4.	
                This
                  Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the Company
                  that
                  it has acted wrongfully with respect to Contractor or any other
                  person or
                  that Contractor has any rights whatsoever against the Company.
                  The Company
                  specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against
                  Contractor or any other person on the part of itself, its employees
                  or its
                  agents. 

              

      

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      
        	5.	
                As
                  a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement,
                  Contractor hereby irrevocably releases the Company and each of
                  the owners,
                  stockholders, predecessors, successors, directors, officers, employees,
                  representatives, attorneys, and affiliates (and agents, directors,
                  officers, employees, representatives and attorneys of such affiliates)
                  of
                  the Company, and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert
                  with
                  them (collectively “Releasees”), from any and all charges, claims,
                  liabilities, agreements, damages, causes of action, suits, costs,
                  losses,
                  debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred)
                  of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, including, but not
                  limited to,
                  rights arising out of alleged violations of any contracts, express
                  or
                  implied, any covenant of good faith and fair dealing, express or
                  implied,
                  or any tort, or any legal restrictions on the Company’s right to terminate

    RELEASE
      AGREEMENT

     

    This
      Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this _____ day of ______________,
      by Galt Medical Corp. (the “Company”) and
      _____________________ the
      “Contractor”).

     

    Introduction

     

    Contractor
      and the Company entered into an Independent Contractor Consulting Agreement
      dated ___________________________
      (the
“Severance Agreement”) which provides certain severance benefits.

     

    The
      Severance Agreement requires that as a condition to the payment of severance
      benefits under the Severance Agreement (the “Severance Benefits”), the
      Contractor must provide a release and agree to certain other
      conditions.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

     

    
      
        	1.	
                Contractor
                  has been offered twenty-one (21) days from receipt of this Agreement
                  within which to consider this Agreement. The effective date of
                  this
                  Agreement shall be the date eight (8) days after the date on which
                  Contractor signs this Agreement (“the Effective Date”). For a period of
                  seven (7) days following Contractor’s execution of this Agreement,
                  Contractor may revoke this Agreement, and this Agreement shall
                  not become
                  effective or enforceable until such seven (7) day period has expired.
                  Contractor must communicate the desire to revoke this Agreement
                  in
                  writing. Contractor understands that the Contractor may sign the
                  Agreement
                  at any time before the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day review
                  period. To the degree Contractor chooses not to wait twenty-one
                  (21) days
                  to execute this Agreement, it is because Contractor freely and
                  unilaterally chooses to execute this Agreement before that time.
                  Contractor’s signing of the Agreement triggers the commencement of the
                  seven (7) day revocation period.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	2.	
                In
                  exchange for Contractor’s execution of this Agreement and in full and
                  complete settlement of any and all claims, the Company will provide
                  Contractor with the Severance Benefits.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        
          	3.	
                  Contractor
                    acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is in compliance
                    with the Age
                    Discrimination in Employment Act and the Older Workers Benefit
                    Protection
                    Act and that the releases set forth in this Agreement shall be
                    applicable,
                    without limitation, to any claims brought under these
                    Acts.

                

        

      

    

     

    The
      release given by Contractor in this Agreement is given solely
      in
exchange
      for the consideration set forth in this Agreement and such consideration is
      in
      addition to anything of value that Contractor was entitled to receive prior
      to
      entering into this Agreement.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Contractor
      has been advised to consult an attorney prior to entering into this Agreement,
      and this provision of the Agreement satisfies the requirement of the Older
      Workers Benefit Protection Act that Contractor be so advised in
      writing.

     

    By
      entering into this Agreement, Contractor does not waive rights or claims that
      may arise after the date this Agreement is executed.

     

    
      
        	4.	
                This
                  Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the Company
                  that
                  it has acted wrongfully with respect to Contractor or any other
                  person or
                  that Contractor has any rights whatsoever against the Company.
                  The Company
                  specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against
                  Contractor or any other person on the part of itself, its employees
                  or
                  its agents.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	5.	
                As
                  a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement,
                  Contractor hereby irrevocably releases the Company and each of
                  the owners,
                  stockholders, predecessors, successors, directors, officers, employees,
                  representatives, attorneys, and affiliates (and agents, directors,
                  officers, employees,
                  representatives and attorneys of such affiliates) of the Company,
                  and all
                  persons acting by, through, under or in concert with them (collectively
                  “Releasees”), from any and all charges, claims, liabilities, agreements,
                  damages, causes of action, suits, costs, losses, debts and expenses
                  (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred) of any nature
                  whatsoever, known or unknown, including, but not limited to, rights
                  arising out of alleged violations of any contracts, express or
                  implied,
                  any covenant of good faith and fair dealing, express or implied,
                  or any
                  tort, or any legal restrictions on the Company’s right to terminate
                  employees,
                  or any federal, state or other governmental statute, regulation,
                  or

                  has been offered forty-five (45) days from receipt of this Agreement
                  within which to consider this Agreement. The effective date of
                  this
                  Agreement shall be the date eight (8) days after the date on which
                  Contractor signs this Agreement (“the Effective Date”). For a period of
                  seven (7) days following Contractor’s execution of this Agreement,
                  Contractor may revoke this Agreement, and this Agreement shall
                  not become
                  effective or enforceable until such seven (7) day period has expired.
                  Contractor must communicate the desire to revoke this Agreement
                  in
                  writing. Contractor understands that the Contractor may sign the
                  Agreement
                  at any time before the expiration of the forty-five (45) day review
                  period. To the degree Contractor chooses not to wait forty-five
                  (45) days
                  to execute this Agreement, it is because Contractor freely and
                  unilaterally chooses to execute this Agreement before that time.
                  Contractor’s signing of the Agreement triggers the commencement of the
                  seven (7) day revocation period.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	2.	
                In
                  exchange for Contractor’s execution of this Agreement and in full and
                  complete settlement of any and all claims, the Company will provide
                  Contractor with the Severance Benefits.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	3.	
                Contractor
                  acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is in compliance with
                  the Age
                  Discrimination in Employment Act and the Older Workers Benefit
                  Protection
                  Act and that the releases set forth in this Agreement shall be
                  applicable,
                  without limitation, to any claims brought under these Acts.
                  

              

      

    

     

    The
      release given by Contractor in this Agreement is
      given solely in exchange for the consideration set forth in this Agreement
      and
      such consideration is in addition to anything of value that Contractor was
      entitled to receive prior to entering into this Agreement.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Contractor
      has been advised to consult an attorney prior to entering into this Agreement,
      and this provision of the Agreement satisfies the requirement of the Older
      Workers Benefit Protection Act that Contractor be so advised in
      writing.

     

    By
      entering into this Agreement, Contractor does not waive rights or claims that
      may arise after the date this Agreement is executed.

                    and such individuals comprise the “Decisional Unit.” Attached as

                    in the Decisional Unit who were and who were not selected for
                    termination
                    and the offer of consideration for signing the
                    Agreement.

                

              

      

    

    

      
        	5.	
                This
                  Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the Company
                  that
                  it has acted wrongfully with respect to Contractor or any other
                  person or
                  that Contractor has any rights whatsoever against the Company.
                  The Company
                  specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against
                  Contractor or any other person on the part of itself, its employees
                  or its
                  agents.

                As
                  a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement,
                  Contractor hereby irrevocably releases the Company and each of
                  the owners,

      AGREEMENT

    

    This
      Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this _____
      day of
      _________,
      by Galt Medical Corp. (the “Employer”)
      and _________________________
      (the
“Employee”).

    

    Introduction

     

    Employee
      and the Employer entered into an Employment Agreement dated ______________
      (the
“Employment Agreement”) which provides certain benefits in the event of certain
      terminations of the Employee’s employment.

     

    The
      Employment Agreement requires that as a condition to the payment of severance
      benefits under the Employment Agreement or the Employer entering into a
      consulting agreement with the Employee as provided in the Employment Agreement
      (the “Separation Benefits”), the Employee must provide a release and agree to
      certain other conditions. 

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 

     

    
      
        	9.	
                The
                  effective date of this Agreement shall be the date on which Employee
                  signs
                  this Agreement (“the Effective Date”), at which time this Agreement shall
                  be fully effective and enforceable. Employee has been offered twenty-one
                  (21) days from receipt of this Agreement within which to consider
                  this
                  Agreement. Employee understands that the Employee may sign this
                  Agreement
                  at any time before the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day review.
                  To
                  the degree Employee chooses not to wait twenty-one (21) days to
                  execute
                  this Agreement, it is because Employee freely and unilaterally
                  chooses to
                  execute this Agreement before that time.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	10.	
                In
                  exchange for Employee’s execution of this Agreement and in full and
                  complete settlement of any and all claims, the Employer will provide
                  Employee with the Separation Benefits.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	11.	
                The
                  release given by Employee in this Agreement is given solely in
                  exchange
                  for the consideration set forth in this Agreement and such consideration
                  is in addition to anything of value that Employee was entitled
                  to receive
                  prior to entering into this Agreement.

              

      

    

     

    Employee
      has been advised to consult an attorney prior to entering into this Agreement.
      

     

    By
      entering into this Agreement, Employee does not waive rights or claims that
      may
      arise after the date this Agreement is executed. 

     

    
      
        	12.	
                This
                  Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the Employer
                  that it has acted wrongfully with respect to Employee or any other
                  person
                  or that Employee has any rights whatsoever against the Employer.
                  The
                  Employer specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts
                  against
                  Employee or any other person on the part of itself, its employees
                  or its
                  agents. 

              

      

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      
        	13.	
                As
                  a material inducement to the Employer to enter into this Agreement,
                  Employee hereby irrevocably releases the Employer and each of the
                  owners,
                  stockholders, predecessors, successors, directors, officers, employees,
                  representatives, attorneys, and affiliates (and agents, directors,
                  officers, employees, representatives and attorneys of such affiliates)
                  of
                  the Employer, and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert
                  with
                  them (collectively “Releasees”), from any and all charges, claims,
                  liabilities, agreements, damages, causes of action, suits, costs,
                  losses,
                  debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred)
                  of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, including, but not
                  limited to,
                  rights arising out of alleged violations of any contracts, express
                  or
                  implied, any covenant of good faith and fair dealing, express or
                  implied,
                  or any tort, or any legal restrictions on the Employer’s right to
                  terminate employees, or any federal, state or other governmental

                  of the

                  covenants and agrees not to institute, or participate in any way
                  in anyone
                  else’s actions involved in instituting any action against any of the
                  Releasees with respect to any Claim released herein.
                  

              

      

    

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, this Agreement shall not release any claims the Employee has

        	14.	
                The
                  Employer and Employee agree that the terms of this Agreement shall
                  be
                  final and binding and that this Agreement shall be interpreted,
                  enforced
                  and governed under the laws of the State of Georgia. The provisions
                  of
                  this Agreement can be severed, and if any part of this Agreement
                  is found
                  to be unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue
                  to be
                  valid and effective.

    This
      Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this _____ day of ______________,
      by Galt Medical Corp. (the “Employer”)
      and ______________________ the
      “Employee”).

     

    Introduction

     

    Employee
      and the Employer entered into an Employment Agreement dated ______________
      (the
“Employment Agreement”) which provides certain benefits in the event of certain
      terminations of the Employee’s employment.

     

    The
      Employment Agreement requires that as a condition to the payment of severance
      benefits under the Employment Agreement or the Employer entering into a
      consulting agreement with the Employee as provided in the Employment Agreement
      (the “Separation Benefits”), the Employee must provide a release and agree to
      certain other conditions.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

     

    
      
        
          	9.	
                  Employee
                    has been offered twenty-one (21) days from receipt of this Agreement
                    within which to consider this Agreement. The effective date of
                    this
                    Agreement shall be the date eight (8) days after the date on
                    which
                    Employee signs this Agreement (“the Effective Date”). For a period of
                    seven (7) days following Employee’s execution of this Agreement, Employee
                    may revoke this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not become
                    effective
                    or enforceable until such seven. (7) day period has expired.
                    Employee must
                    communicate the desire to revoke this Agreement in writing. Employee
                    understands that the Employee may sign the Agreement at any time
                    before
                    the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day review period. To the
                    degree
                    Employee chooses not to wait twenty-one (21) days to execute
                    this
                    Agreement, it is because Employee freely and unilaterally chooses
                    to
                    execute this Agreement before that time. Employee’s signing of the
                    Agreement triggers the commencement of the seven (7) day revocation
                    period. 

                

        

      

    

     

    
      
        	10.	
                In
                  exchange for Employee’s execution of this Agreement and in full and
                  complete settlement of any and all claims, the Employer will provide
                  Employee with the Separation Benefits.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	11.	
                Employee
                  acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is in compliance with
                  the Age
                  Discrimination in Employment Act and the Older Workers Benefit
                  Protection
                  Act and that the releases set forth in this Agreement shall be
                  applicable,
                  without limitation, to any claims brought under these
                  Acts.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    The
      release given by Employee in this Agreement is given solely
      in
exchange
      for the consideration set forth in this Agreement and such consideration is
      in
      addition to anything of value that Employee was entitled to receive prior to
      entering into this Agreement.

     

    Employee
      has been advised to consult an attorney prior to entering into this Agreement,
      and this provision of the Agreement satisfies the requirement of the Older
      Workers Benefit Protection Act that Employee be so advised in
      writing.

     

    By
      entering into this Agreement, Employee does not waive rights or claims that
      may
      arise after the date this Agreement is executed.

     

    
      
        	12.	
                
                  This
                    Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the
                    Employer
                    that it has acted wrongfully with respect to Employee or any
                    other person
                    or that Employee has any rights whatsoever against the Employer.
                    The

    RELEASE
      AGREEMENT

     

    This
      Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this ____ day of _______________,
      by Galt Medical Corp. (the “Employer”)
      and _________________________
      (the
“Employee”).

     

    Introduction

     

    Employee
      and the Employer entered into an Employment Agreement dated ______________
      (the
“Employment Agreement”) which provides certain benefits in the event of certain
      terminations of the Employee’s employment.

     

    The
      Employment Agreement requires that as a condition to the payment of severance
      benefits under the Employment Agreement or the Employer entering into a
      consulting agreement with the Employee as provided in the Employment Agreement
      (the “Separation Benefits”), the Employee must provide a release and agree to
      certain other conditions.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

     

    
      
        	10.	
                Employee
                  has been offered forty-five (45) days from receipt of this Agreement
                  within which to consider this Agreement. The effective date of
                  this
                  Agreement shall be the date eight (8) days after the date on which
                  Employee signs this Agreement (“the Effective Date”). For a period of
                  seven (7) days following Employee’s execution of this Agreement, Employee
                  may revoke this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not become
                  effective
                  or enforceable until such seven (7) day period has expired. Employee
                  must
                  communicate the desire to revoke this Agreement in writing. Employee
                  understands that the Employee may sign the Agreement at any time
                  before
                  the expiration of the forty-five (45) day review period. To the
                  degree
                  Employee chooses not to wait forty-five (45) days to execute this
                  Agreement, it is because Employee freely and unilaterally chooses
                  to
                  execute this Agreement before that time. Employee’s signing of the
                  Agreement triggers the commencement of the seven (7) day revocation
                  period. 

              

      

    

     

    
      
        
          	11.	
                  In
                    exchange for Employee’s execution of this Agreement and in full and
                    complete settlement of any and all claims, the Employer will
                    provide
                    Employee with the Separation Benefits.

                

        

      

    

     

    
      
        
          	12.	
                  Employee
                    acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is in compliance
                    with the Age
                    Discrimination in Employment Act and the Older Workers Benefit
                    Protection
                    Act and that the releases set forth in this Agreement shall be
                    applicable,
                    without limitation, to any claims brought under these Acts.
                    

                

        

      

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    The
      release given by Employee in this Agreement is given solely in exchange for
      the
      consideration set forth in this Agreement and such consideration is in addition
      to anything of value that Employee was entitled to receive prior to entering
      into this Agreement.

     

    Employee
      has been advised to consult an attorney prior to entering into this Agreement,
      and this provision of the Agreement satisfies the requirement of the Older
      Workers Benefit Protection Act that Employee be so advised in
      writing.

     

    By
      entering into this Agreement, Employee does not waive rights or claims that
      may
      arise after the date this Agreement is executed.

     

    
      
        	13.	
                
                  The
                    Employer has           [Employer
                    to describe class, unit, or group of individuals covered by termination
                    program, any eligibility factors, and time limits
                    applicable]
                    and such employees comprise the “Decisional Unit.” Attached as “Attachment
                    1” to this Agreement is a list of ages and job titles of persons
                    in the
                    Decisional Unit who were and who were not selected for termination
                    and the
                    offer of consideration for signing the
                    Agreement.

                

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	14.	
                This
                  Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the Employer
                  that it has acted wrongfully with respect to Employee or any other
                  person
                  or that Employee has any rights whatsoever against the Employer.
                  The
                  Employer specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts
                  against
                  Employee or any other person on the part of itself, its employees
                  or its
                  agents.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	15.	
                As
                  a material inducement to the Employer to enter into this Agreement,
                  Employee hereby irrevocably releases the Employer and each of the
                  owners,
                  stockholders, predecessors, successors, directors, officers, employees,
                  representatives, attorneys, and affiliates (and agents, directors,
                  officers, employees, representatives and. attorneys of such affiliates)
                  of
                  the Employer, and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert
                  with
                  them (collectively “Releasees”), from any and all charges, claims,
                  liabilities, agreements, damages, causes of action, suits, costs,
                  losses,
                  debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred)
                  of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, including, but not
                  limited to,

                  or

                  implied,

                  terminate employees, or any federal, state or other governmental
                  statute,

    Section
      3.         Required

    The

      and file with the SEC, no later than the Required
      Registration Filing Date,
      a
      Registration Statement on Form S-3 pursuant
      to Rule 415 of the Securities Act (the
      “Registration
      Statement”)
      with
      respect to all
      of the
      Registrable Securities,
      and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement
      to become effective
      as soon
      as practicable thereafter.
      After
      the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 3 has become
      effective, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep
      such Registration Statement (on Form S-3 or such other form as may then be
      available to the Purchaser) effective for a period (the “Effectiveness
      Period”)
      equal
      to (i) one year from the initial date that the SEC declares such Registration
      Statement effective (subject to any extension pursuant to Sections 5(a) and
      5(b)
      hereof, or, if such Registration Statement is not effective during any period
      within such one-year period, such one-year period shall be extended by the
      number of days that the Registration Statement is not effective), or (ii) such
      shorter period which shall terminate when all of the Registrable Securities
      have
      been sold, or are eligible to be sold within a single three-month period
      pursuant to Rule 144(k) or any successor thereto. The Purchaser represents
      and
      warrants that it is eligible to register the Registrable Securities on Form
      S-3
      under the Securities Act. To the extent that the Purchaser is ineligible to
      register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, the Purchaser shall satisfy
      its
      obligations under this Agreement to register Registrable Securities on Form
      S-1.

    

    Section
      4.         Registration
      Procedures.

    

    With
      respect to the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this
      Agreement, the Purchaser will as promptly as reasonably
      practicable:

    

    (a)   
       before
      filing the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendments or
      supplements thereto (excluding documents to be incorporated by reference therein
      filed after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement), the Purchaser
      will, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to filing, furnish to the
      Holders copies of all such documents in substantially the form proposed to
      be
      filed (including documents incorporated therein by reference other than
      documents previously filed with the SEC), to enable the Holders to review such
      documents prior to the filing thereof, and the Purchaser shall make such
      reasonable changes thereto (including changes to documents incorporated by
      reference other than documents previously filed with the SEC) as may be
      reasonably requested by the Holders;

    

    (b)   
       prepare
      and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to the
      Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement
      continuously effective for the Effectiveness Period; cause the Prospectus to
      be
      supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented
      to be
      filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and comply
      with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of
      all
      securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period
      in accordance with this paragraph (b) and the intended methods of disposition
      by
      the Holders thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement
      to
      the Prospectus;

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (c)    
       notify
      the Holders promptly, and confirm such notice in writing, (1) when the
      Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been
      filed, and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective
      amendment, when the same has become effective, (2) of any request by the SEC
      for
      amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or
      for
      additional information, (3) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order
      suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation
      of
      any proceedings for that purpose, (4) of the receipt by the Purchaser of any
      notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the
      Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or
      threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (5) of the happening of any
      event (but not the details of such event) which makes any statement made in
      the
      Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any document incorporated therein
      by
      reference untrue or which requires the making of any changes in the Registration
      Statement, the Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference
      in
      order to make the statements therein not misleading, so that, in the case of
      the
      Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material
      fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
      necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading, and that in the case
      of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
      or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
      to
      make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
      were
      made, not misleading, and (6) of the Purchaser’s good faith determination that
      it is appropriate to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the
      Prospectus before sales of the Registrable Securities continue.

    

    (d)  
       
      use its
      commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending
      the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the earliest possible
      time;

    

    (e)   
       furnish
      to the Holders, without charge, a reasonable number of conformed copies of
      the
      Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including
      financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by
      reference and all exhibits (including those incorporated by
      reference);

    

    (f)     
      deliver
      to the Holders as many copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary
      prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may
      reasonably request; the Purchaser hereby consents to the use of the Prospectus
      or any amendment or supplement thereto by the Holders in connection with the
      offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Prospectus or
      any
      amendment or supplement thereto;

    

    (g)    
       use
      its
      commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable
      Securities for offer and sale prior to the date on which the Registration
      Statement is declared effective, under the securities or blue sky laws of such
      jurisdictions as any Holder reasonably requests in writing and do any and all
      other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such
      jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
      Statement; provided,
      that
      the Purchaser will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any
      jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action which
      would
      subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it
      is
      not then so subject;

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (h)   
       cooperate
      with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
      certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing
      any
      restrictive legends; and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such
      denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request at least
      two (2) Business Days prior to any such sale of Registrable
      Securities;

    

    (i)    
       upon
      the
      occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraph (c)(5) above, promptly prepare
      a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or the
      Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other
      required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the
      Registrable Securities, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement
      of a
      material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
      statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
      not misleading; and

    

    (j)     
       provide
      a
      transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities.

    

    The
      Purchaser may require the Holders to furnish to the Purchaser such information
      and documents regarding the distribution of the Registrable Securities by the
      Holders as the Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request in writing,
      and the Purchaser’s obligations with respect to registration are subject to such
      information being provided on a timely basis.

    

    Each
      of
      the Holders hereby agrees by acquisition of the Registrable Securities that,
      upon receipt of any notice from the Purchaser of the happening of any event
      of
      the kind described in Section 4(c)(5) hereof, such Holder will forthwith
      discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until such Holder’s receipt of
      the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section
      4(i) hereof, or until it is advised in writing by the Purchaser that the use
      of
      the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or
      supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus,
      and,
      if so directed by the Purchaser, each Holder will deliver to the Purchaser
      (at
      the Purchaser’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in
      such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
      current at the time of receipt of such notice. 

    

    Section
      5.         Effect
      of Withdrawal and Suspension.

    

    (a)  Withdrawal.
      If the
      Purchaser shall withdraw the Registration Statement prior to the expiration
      of
      the Effectiveness Period (a “Withdrawn
      Registration Statement”),
      the
      Holders that continue to hold the Registrable Securities, which shares were
      covered by the Withdrawn Registration Statement, shall be entitled to an
      additional Registration Statement, and the Purchaser shall use its commercially
      reasonable efforts to (i) prepare and file with the SEC, as soon as practicable
      following the date of withdrawal of the Withdrawn Registration Statement, an
      additional Registration Statement on Form S-3, and (ii) keep such additional
      Registration Statement effective for the remainder of the Effectiveness Period
      of the Withdrawn Registration Statement. The Purchaser shall reimburse the
      Holders for all reasonable legal and other advisory fees incurred by the Holders
      in connection with the Withdrawn Registration Statement.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b)  Suspended
      Sales.
      If the
      Purchaser shall give any notice to suspend the disposition of Registrable
      Securities pursuant to Section 4(c)(5) hereof, the Purchaser shall extend the
      period of time during which the Purchaser is required to maintain the
      effectiveness of the Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3 of this
      Agreement by the number of days during the period from and including the date
      of
      the giving of such notice to and including the date the Holders either are
      advised by the Purchaser that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed or
      receive copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section
      4(i).

     

    Section
      6.         Indemnification.

    

    (a)    
       Indemnification
      by Purchaser.
      The
      Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by
      law,
      each Holder and its Agents and each Person who controls such Holder or any
      of
      its Agents (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses,
      claims, damages, liabilities and expenses to which any such Person may be
      subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, and reimburse all such Persons
      for any legal or other expenses incurred with investigating or defending against
      any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, insofar as such losses, claims,
      damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged
      untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement,
      Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any omission or alleged omission to
      state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
      make
      the statements therein not misleading, or any violation or alleged violation
      by
      the Purchaser of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
      amended, or applicable “blue sky” laws, except insofar as the same arise out of
      or are based upon an untrue statement of a material fact or omission of a
      material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
      therein not misleading, which statement or omission is made therein in reliance
      upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Purchaser
      by
      such Holder, expressly for use therein. 

    

    (b)    
      Indemnification
      by Holders.
      Each
      Holder will, severally but not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless, to the
      full
      extent permitted by law, the Purchaser, its directors and officers and each
      Person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
      against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses to which any
      such
      Person may be subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such
      losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue
      or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
      Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any omission or alleged
      omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
      the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only if and to the
      extent, that such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
      omission is made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with the information
      furnished in writing by such Holder or any Agent of a Holder specifically for
      inclusion therein. 

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      (c)   
         Conduct
        of Indemnification Proceedings.
        Any
        Person entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified
        Party”)
        hereunder will (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party (the
“Indemnifying
        Party”)
        of any
        claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification, and (ii) unless, in
        such
        Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest may exist
        between such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party with respect to such
        claim, permit such Indemnifying Party to assume at its own expense the defense
        of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.
        The
        Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the conduct of such
        defense by the Indemnifying Party provided that it will pay for the fees
        of its
        own counsel. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the Indemnifying Party,
        the Indemnifying Party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement
        made without its consent. No Indemnifying Party will consent to entry into
        any
        judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional
        term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified
        Party
        of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. An
        Indemnifying Party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense
        of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than
        one
        counsel for all parties indemnified by such Indemnifying Party with respect
        to
        such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any Indemnified Party and
        any
        other of such Indemnified Parties with respect to such claim, such Indemnified
        Parties reasonably believe that due to conflict of interests, one counsel
        will
        not be in a position to adequately represent all Indemnified Parties, in
        which
        event the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses
        of
        such additional counsel or counsels. Failure to give prompt written notice
        shall
        not release the Indemnifying Party from its obligations hereunder, except
        to the
        extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such
        claim
        has been materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such
        notice.

    

     

    (d)   
       Continued
      Effect.
      The
      indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force
      and
      effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified
      Party or any officer, director, Agent or person who controls such Indemnified
      Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities.

    

    (e)    
      Contribution.
      If the
      indemnification provided for in Section 6(a) or 6(b) is due in accordance with
      the terms hereof, but is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
      unavailable or unenforceable with respect to any losses, claims, damages,
      liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each Indemnifying Party in
      lieu
      of indemnifying such Indemnified Party shall contribute to the amount paid
      or
      payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, liabilities, claims
      or damages referred to in Section 6(a) or 6(b) in such proportion as is
      appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the
      one
      hand and any Indemnified Party on the other hand in connection with the
      statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims
      or
      damages. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
      things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
      the
      omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
      initially supplied or developed by the Indemnifying Party or such Indemnified
      Party and such parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
      opportunity to correct such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by
      an
      Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, liabilities, claims or damages
      referred to in the first sentence of this Section 6(e) shall be deemed to
      include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified
      Party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which
      is
      the subject of this Section 6(e). No person guilty of fraudulent
      misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
      shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
      fraudulent misrepresentation.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Section
      7.         Miscellaneous.

    

    (a)    
       Termination.
      This
      Agreement shall terminate upon termination of the Effectiveness Period, and
      shall thereupon be of no further force and effect; provided
      that
      Section 6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

    

    (b)   
       No
      Inconsistent Agreements.
      The
      Purchaser will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any
      agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with the rights
      granted to the Holders or otherwise conflicts with the provisions
      hereof.

    

    (c)    
       Notices.
      All
      notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to
      be
      given hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 8.01 of the Stock
      Purchase Agreement.

    

    (d)   
       Entire
      Agreement.
      This
      Agreement contains the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the
      subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral,
      with respect thereto.

     

    (e)   
       Waivers
      and Amendments.
      This
      Agreement may be amended, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the
      terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the Parties
      or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. No delay on the
      part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
      operate as a waiver thereof.

     

    (f)    
       Remedies
      Cumulative.
      No
      remedy made available by any of the provisions of this Agreement is intended
      to
      be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative
      and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or
      hereafter existing at law or in equity; provided, however, that in no event
      shall any party be entitled to recover more than once in respect of any
      claim.

     

    (g)   
       Binding
      Effect; No Assignment.
      This
      Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and
      their respective successors. This Agreement is not assignable by the Holders
      (other than to the heirs and personal representatives of a deceased Holder)
      without the prior written consent of the Purchaser and any other purported
      assignment shall be null and void. 

     

    (h)   
       Counterparts.
      This
      Agreement may be executed by the Parties hereto in multiple counterparts, each
      of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such
      counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

      except when used with a negative predicate.

      provision or any portion of any provision of this Agreement or the application
      of such provision or any portion thereof to any Person or circumstance, shall

      the
      remaining provisions of this Agreement, or the application of such provision
      or
      portion of such provision as is held invalid or unenforceable to persons or
      circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable,
      shall not be affected thereby.

     

    (l)    
       Choice
      of Law. This
      Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the
      State of Georgia without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.
      Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of Fulton
