	Revolving Term Note	  	

	$4,940,000.00	  	October 14, 2011

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CENTERPOINT STATION LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Borrower”), with an address at 11501 Northlake, Cincinnati, Ohio 45249, promises to pay to the order of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Bank”), in lawful money of the United States of America in
immediately available funds at its offices located at 201 East Fifth Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202, or at such other location as the Bank may designate from time to time, the principal sum of Four Million Nine Hundred Forty Thousand and 00/100
DOLLARS ($4,940,000.00) (the “Facility”) or such lesser amount as may be advanced to or for the benefit of the Borrower hereunder, together with interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance from the date hereof, all as
provided below. 
 1. Advances. The Borrower may request advances, repay, reborrow and request additional advances hereunder,
subject to the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined)) until the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined), subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined). The
“Initial Expiration Date” shall mean November 1, 2013. At Borrower’s option, provided that the Borrower complies with the terms of Paragraph 14 below, Borrower may extend the term of this Note until November 1, 2014
(the “Extended Expiration Date”), or such later date as may be designated by the Bank by written notice from the Bank to the Borrower. The Initial Expiration Date and the Extended Expiration Date may be referred to herein as the
“Expiration Date”. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that in no event will the Bank be under any obligation to extend or renew the Facility or this Note beyond the Expiration Date. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of
advances under this Note shall not exceed the face amount of this Note. 
 2. Rate of Interest. Amounts outstanding under this
Note will bear interest at a rate per annum which is at all times equal to (A) the Daily LIBOR Rate plus (B) two hundred fifty (250) basis points (2.50%). Interest hereunder will be calculated based on the actual number of days
that principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days. In no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. 

If the Bank determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the eurodollar market generally,
deposits in dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to banks in the eurodollar market for the selected term, or adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Daily LIBOR Rate, then the Bank shall give notice thereof to the
Borrower. Thereafter, until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the interest rate for all amounts outstanding under this Note shall be equal to (A) the Base Rate plus
(B) one hundred fifty (150) basis points (1.50%) (the “Alternate Rate”). 
 In addition, if, after the date of
this Note, the Bank shall determine (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that any enactment, promulgation or adoption of or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration
thereof by a governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to make or maintain or fund loans based on the Daily LIBOR Rate, the Bank shall notify the Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, until the Bank notifies
the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply, the interest rate on all amounts outstanding under this Note shall be the Alternate Rate. 
 Form 8F – NJ/DC/IN/KY (NCOJ) REV. 5/10 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, at such time that (A) the Facility is permanently reduced to the
Interest Rate Reduction Threshold (as hereinafter defined, and (B) the Debt Yield (as determined pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement) is equal to or greater than the Debt Yield Threshold (collectively, the “Reduction
Criteria”) and for so long as the applicable Reduction Criteria continue to be met, the Daily LIBOR Rate shall be adjusted as follows: 
 REDUCTION CRITERIA 
  

					
	 INTEREST RATE REDUCTION THRESHOLD
	  	 DEBT YIELD THRESHOLD
	  	 LIBOR OPTION

	 $    4,430,000
	  	12.5%	  	A rate per annum equal to (A) the Daily LIBOR Rate plus (B) two hundred thirty-five (235) basis points (2.35%), for the applicable LIBOR Interest Period
	 $    3,690,000
	  	15.0%	  	A rate per annum equal to (A) the Daily LIBOR Rate plus (B) two hundred twenty-five (225) basis points (2.25%), for the applicable LIBOR Interest Period

 The Daily LIBOR Rate will adjust at such time the then applicable Reduction Criteria are no longer met. 

For purposes hereof, the following terms shall have the following meanings: 
 “Base Rate” shall mean the higher of (A) the Prime Rate, and (B) the sum of the Federal Funds Open Rate plus fifty (50) basis points (0.50%). If and when the Base
Rate (or any component thereof) changes, the rate of interest with respect to any amounts hereunder to which the Base Rate applies will change automatically without notice to the Borrower, effective on the date of any such change. 

“Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday on which commercial banks are
authorized or required by law to be closed for business in Cincinnati, Ohio. 
 “Daily LIBOR Rate” shall mean,
for any day, the rate per annum determined by the Bank by dividing (A) the Published Rate by (B) a number equal to 1.00 minus the percentage prescribed by the Federal Reserve for determining the maximum reserve requirements with
respect to any eurocurrency fundings by banks on such day. The rate of interest will be adjusted automatically as of each Business Day based on changes in the Daily LIBOR Rate without notice to the Borrower. 

“Federal Funds Open Rate” shall mean, for any day, the rate per annum (based on a year of 360 days and actual days
elapsed) which is the daily federal funds open rate as quoted by ICAP North America, Inc. (or any successor) as set forth on the Bloomberg Screen BTMM for that day opposite the caption “OPEN” (or on such other substitute Bloomberg Screen
that displays such rate), or as set forth on such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying such rate as selected by the Bank (an “Alternate Source”) (or if such rate for such day does not appear on the
Bloomberg Screen BTMM (or any substitute screen) or on any Alternate Source, or if there shall at any time, for any reason, no longer exist a Bloomberg Screen BTMM (or any substitute screen) or any Alternate Source, a comparable replacement rate
determined by the Bank at such time (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error); provided however, that if such day is not a Business Day, the Federal Funds Open Rate for such day shall be the “open” rate on the
immediately preceding Business Day. The rate of interest charged shall be adjusted as of each Business Day based on changes in the Federal Funds Open Rate without notice to the Borrower. 

  

					
		  	- 2 -	  	Form 8F

 “Prime Rate” shall mean the rate publicly announced by the Bank from time
to time as its prime rate. The Prime Rate is determined from time to time by the Bank as a means of pricing some loans to its borrowers. The Prime Rate is not tied to any external rate of interest or index, and does not necessarily reflect the
lowest rate of interest actually charged by the Bank to any particular class or category of customers. 
 “Published Rate”
shall mean the rate of interest published each Business Day in the Wall Street Journal “Money Rates” listing under the caption “London Interbank Offered Rates” for a one month period (or, if no such rate is published therein for
any reason, then the Published Rate shall be the eurodollar rate for a one month period as published in another publication selected by the Bank). 
 3. Advance Procedures. A request for advance made by telephone must be promptly confirmed in writing by such method as the Bank may require. The Borrower authorizes the Bank to accept
telephonic or email requests for advances, and the Bank shall be entitled to rely upon the authority of any person providing such instructions. The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds the Bank harmless from and against any and all damages, losses,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) which may arise or be created by the acceptance of such telephone requests or making such advances. The Bank will enter on its books and records, which entry
when made will be presumed correct, the date and amount of each advance, the interest rate and interest period applicable thereto, as well as the date and amount of each payment. 
 4. Payment Terms. 
 (i) Payment of
Interest. Interest shall be due and payable monthly, commencing on November 1, 2011, and continuing on the
1st day of each month thereafter until the Expiration
Date, on which date all outstanding principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable in full. 
 (ii)
Payment of Principal; Permanent Reduction in the Facility. Commencing on May 1, 2013, and on the
1st day of each month thereafter until the Expiration
Date, the Facility shall be permanently reduced by $8,000.00. If the principal outstanding balance of the Facility exceeds the reduced Facility on any such date, Borrower shall make a principal payment in an amount sufficient to reduce the principal
balance to at least the amount of the then Facility. 
 If any payment under this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday
under the laws of the State where the Bank’s office indicated above is located, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.
The Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to charge the Borrower’s deposit account at the Bank for any payment when due hereunder. Payments received will be applied to charges, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), accrued interest
and principal in any order the Bank may choose, in its sole discretion. 
 5. Late Payments; Default Rate. If the Borrower fails
to make any payment of principal, interest or other amount coming due pursuant to the provisions of this Note within fifteen (15) calendar days of the date due and payable, the Borrower also shall pay to the Bank a late charge equal to the
greater of five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment or $100.00 (the “Late Charge”). Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed in any way to extend the due date of any such payment. Upon maturity, whether
by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at the Bank’s option upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) and during the continuance thereof, each advance outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a rate per
annum (based on the actual number of days that principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days) which shall be three percentage points (3%) in excess of the interest rate in effect from time to time under this Note but not more than the
maximum rate allowed by law (the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall continue to apply whether or not judgment shall be entered on this Note. Both the Late Charge and the Default Rate are imposed as liquidated damages for the
purpose of defraying the Bank’s expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, but are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Bank’s exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under
applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any agents or attorneys which the Bank may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Bank of carrying a loan that is

  

					
		  	- 3 -	  	Form 8F

 
in default. The Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just compensation for anticipated and actual harm incurred by the Bank, and that the actual harm
incurred by the Bank cannot be estimated with certainty and without difficulty. 
 6. Prepayment. The indebtedness evidenced by
this Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty. 
 7. Other Loan Documents. This Note is issued in
connection with a Loan Agreement between the Borrower and the Bank, dated on or before the date hereof (the “Loan Agreement”), and the other agreements and documents executed and/or delivered in connection therewith or referred to therein,
the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference (as amended, modified or renewed from time to time, collectively the “Loan Documents”), and is secured by the property (if any) described in the Loan Documents and by such
other collateral as previously may have been or may in the future be granted to the Bank to secure this Note. 
 8. Events of
Default. The occurrence of any of the following events will be deemed to be an “Event of Default” under this Note: (i) the nonpayment of any principal, interest or other indebtedness under this Note when due;
(ii) the occurrence of any event of default or any default and the lapse of any notice or cure period, or any Obligor’s failure to observe or perform any covenant or other agreement, under or contained in any Loan Document or any other
document now or in the future evidencing or securing any debt, liability or obligation of Borrower to the Bank; (iii) the filing by or against any Obligor of any proceeding in bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation,
conservatorship or similar proceeding (and, in the case of any such proceeding instituted against any Obligor, such proceeding is not dismissed or stayed within 30 days of the commencement thereof, provided that the Bank shall not be obligated to
advance additional funds hereunder during such period); (iv) any assignment by any Obligor for the benefit of creditors, or any levy, garnishment, attachment or similar proceeding is instituted against any property of any Obligor held by or
deposited with the Bank; (v) a default with respect to any other indebtedness of Borrower for borrowed money, if the effect of such default is to cause or permit the acceleration of such debt; (vi) the commencement of any foreclosure or
forfeiture proceeding, execution or attachment against any collateral securing the obligations of any Obligor to the Bank; (vii) the entry of a final judgment against any Obligor and the failure of such Obligor to discharge the judgment within
ten (10) days of the entry thereof; (viii) any material adverse change in any Obligor’s business, assets, operations, financial condition or results of operations; (ix) any Obligor ceases doing business as a going concern;
(x) any representation or warranty made by any Obligor to the Bank in any Loan Document or any other documents now or in the future evidencing or securing the obligations of any Obligor to the Bank, is false, erroneous or misleading in any
material respect; (xi) the revocation or attempted revocation, in whole or in part, of any guarantee by any Obligor; or (xii) the death, indictment, or legal incompetency of any individual Obligor or, if any Obligor is a partnership or
limited liability company, the death, indictment, or legal incompetency of both Jeffrey Edison and Michael Phillips. As used herein, the term “Obligor” means any Borrower and any guarantor of, or any pledgor, mortgagor or other
person or entity providing collateral support for, the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank existing on the date of this Note or arising in the future. 
 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default: (a) the Bank shall be under no further obligation to make advances hereunder; (b) if an Event of Default specified in clause (iii) or
(iv) above shall occur, the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest hereunder together with any additional amounts payable hereunder shall be immediately due and payable without demand or notice of any kind; (c) if any other
Event of Default shall occur, the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest hereunder together with any additional amounts payable hereunder, at the Bank’s option and without demand or notice of any kind, may be accelerated and become
immediately due and payable; (d) at the Bank’s option, this Note will bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default; and (e) the Bank may exercise from time to time any of the rights and
remedies available under the Loan Documents or under applicable law. 
 9. Compliance Certification. Borrower certifies, and in
connection with each advance hereunder shall be deemed to have recertified, that, Borrower, its sole member and any guarantor of the Loan are in, and shall remain in, compliance with any and all covenants and investment strategies, as set forth in
each such entity’s governing documents, as such covenants and investment strategies may be affected by the amount of the outstanding principal balance due hereunder.

against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including all fees and charges of internal or external counsel with whom any Indemnified Party may consult and all expenses of litigation and preparation therefor) which any
Indemnified Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified Party by any person, entity or governmental authority (including any person or entity claiming derivatively on behalf of the Borrower), in connection with or arising out of
or relating to the matters referred to in this Note or in the other Loan Documents or the use of any advance hereunder, whether (a) arising from or incurred in connection with any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by the

 Exhibit 10.38 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 This Employment Agreement (the
“Agreement”), entered into and effective as of October 1, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), is by and between Orthofix Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), and Bryan McMillan, an
individual (the “Executive”). 
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS 

A. The Company desires to employ the Executive in the position of President, Spine Global Business Unit and the Executive desires to
render such services, upon the terms and conditions contained herein. 
 B. The Company is a subsidiary of Orthofix
International N.V., a corporation organized under the laws of Curacao (the “Parent”) for whom Executive will also perform services as contemplated hereby, and under certain compensation plans of which Executive shall be eligible to
receive compensation, and Parent is agreeing to provide such compensation and guarantee the Company’s payment obligations hereunder. 
 C. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meaning for them set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. 

The parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 

I. EMPLOYMENT AND DUTIES 
 1.1 Duties. The Company hereby employs the Executive as an employee, and the Executive agrees to be employed by the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. While serving as
an employee of the Company, the Executive shall serve as President, Spine Global Business Unit of the Company, and be appointed to serve as President, Spine Global Business Unit of the Parent. The Executive shall have such power and authority and
perform such duties, functions and responsibilities as are associated with and incident to such positions, and as the Board may from time to time require of him. The Executive also agrees to serve, if elected, as an officer or director of Parent or
any other direct or indirect subsidiary of the Parent, in each such case at no compensation in addition to that provided for in this Agreement, but the Executive serves in such positions solely as an accommodation to the Company and such positions
shall grant him no rights hereunder (including for purposes of the definition of Good Reason). 
 1.2 Services.
During the Term (as defined in Section 1.3), and excluding any periods of vacation, sick leave or disability, the Executive agrees to devote his full business time, attention and efforts to the business and affairs of the Company. During the
Term, it shall not be a violation of this Section 1.2 for the Executive to (a) serve on civic or charitable boards or committees (but not corporate boards), (b) deliver lectures or fulfill speaking engagements or (c) manage
personal investments, so long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities in 

 
accordance with this Agreement. The Executive shall not serve on any corporate boards while employed by the Company other than (i) any Parent subsidiary boards pursuant to Section 1.1
and (ii) any boards on which he was previously serving prior to the Effective Date. 
 1.3 Term of
Employment. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on September 30, 2012 (the “Initial Term”) unless sooner terminated or extended as provided
hereunder. This Agreement shall automatically renew for additional one-year periods on October 1, 2012 and on each and every October 1 thereafter (each such extension, the “Renewal Term”) unless either party gives the
other party written notice of its or his election not to extend such employment at least ninety (90) days prior to the next October 1 renewal date. Further, if a Change of Control occurs during the Initial Term or during any Renewal Term,
this Agreement shall automatically be extended for two years only from the Change of Control Date and thereafter shall terminate on the second anniversary of the Change of Control Date in accordance with its terms. The Initial Term, together with
any Renewal Term or extension as a result of a Change of Control, are collectively referred to herein as the “Term.” In the event the Executive continues to be employed by the Company (or any other member of the Parent Group) after
the Term, unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, such continued employment shall be on an at-will, month-to-month basis upon terms agreed upon at such time without regard to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (except as expressly
provided herein) and this Agreement shall be deemed terminated at the end of the Term, regardless of whether such employment continues at-will, other than Articles VI and VII, which shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for
any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, non-renewal of the Term shall not trigger any of the payments set forth in Section 5.1. 
 1.4 Place of Performance. During the Term, the Executive shall be based in Lewisville, Texas. 
 II. COMPENSATION 
 2.1 General. The base salary and Incentive
Compensation (as defined in Section 2.3.) payable to the Executive hereunder, as well as any stock-based compensation, including stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock grants, shall be determined from time to time by the
Board and paid pursuant to the Company’s customary payroll practices or in accordance with the terms of the applicable Plans (as defined in Section 2.6). The Company shall pay the Executive in cash, in accordance with the normal payroll
practices of the Company, the base salary and Incentive Compensation set forth below. For the avoidance of doubt, in providing any compensation payable in stock, the Company may withhold, deduct or collect from the compensation otherwise payable or
issuable to the Executive a portion of such compensation to the extent required to comply with applicable tax laws to the extent such withholding is not made or otherwise provided for pursuant to the agreement governing such stock-based
compensation.

 2.2 Base Salary. The Executive shall be paid an annual base salary of no less
than $350,000 while he is employed by the Company during the Term; provided, however, that nothing shall prohibit the Company from reducing the base salary as part of an overall cost reduction program that affects all senior executives
of the Parent Group and does not disproportionately affect the Executive, so long as such reductions do not reduce the base salary to a rate that is less than 90% of the minimum base salary amount set forth above (or, if the minimum base salary
amount has been increased during the Term, 90% of such increased amount). The base salary shall be reviewed annually by the Board for increase (but not decrease, except as permitted above) as part of its annual compensation review, and any increased
amount shall become the base salary under this Agreement. 
 2.3 Bonus or other Incentive Compensation. With
respect to each fiscal year of the Company during the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to receive annual bonus compensation under the Parent’s Executive Annual Incentive Plan or any successor plan (the “Bonus Plan”) based on the
achievement of goals established by the Board from time to time (the “Goals”). During the Term, the Executive will have a target bonus opportunity under the Bonus Plan of at least 60% of his then-applicable Base Salary and an
opportunity to earn a maximum annual bonus of not less than 90% of his then-applicable Base Salary; provided, however, the Executive’s bonus under the Annual Incentive Plan with respect to work performed during the 2011 calendar year shall be
determined based on a pro-rated methodology such that the portion of the bonus representing the period between January 1, 2011 and September 30, 2011 shall be based on the arrangement between the Executive and the Company in effect during
such period, and the portion of the bonus representing the period between October 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011 shall be based on the terms hereof. The amount of any actual payment will depend upon the achievement (or not) of the Goals
established by the Board. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, to receive a bonus under the Bonus Plan, the Executive must be employed on the date of payment of such bonus. Amounts payable under the Bonus Plan shall be determined by the
Board and shall be paid following such fiscal year and no later than two and one-half months after the end of such fiscal year. In addition, the Executive shall be eligible to receive such additional bonus or incentive compensation as the Board may
establish from time to time in its sole discretion. Any bonus or incentive compensation under this Section 2.3 under the Bonus Plan or otherwise is referred to herein as “Incentive Compensation.” Stock-based compensation shall
not be considered Incentive Compensation under the terms of this Agreement unless the parties expressly agree otherwise in writing. 
 2.4 One-Time Cash Bonuses. The Executive shall be paid (i) a one-time cash promotion bonus of $100,000 for being employed on the Effective Date (the “First Bonus Earn
Date”) (such bonus to be payable within 30 calendar days of such First Bonus Earn Date) and (ii) a one-time cash bonus of $50,000, conditioned upon the Executive’s successful completion of “qualitative integration
metrics” to be mutually determined between the Executive and the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, if the 

  
 3 

 
Executive remains employed on July 1, 2012, (the “Second Bonus Earn Date”) (such bonus to be payable within 30 calendar days of such Second Bonus Earn Date). The bonus
amounts referenced in this Section 2.4 shall not be owed or payable if the Executive is not employed by the Company on the applicable First Bonus Earn Date and Second Bonus Earn Date (or, in the case of the latter bonus, if the other
qualitative conditions are not met) including but not limited to because the Executive’s employment was earlier terminated by the Company with or without Cause. 
 2.5 Car Allowance. The Executive shall receive an automobile allowance of $900 per month. 
 2.6 Stock Compensation. The Executive shall be eligible to receive stock-based compensation, whether stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock grants or otherwise, under the
Parent’s Amended and Restated 2004 Long Term Incentive Plan or other stock-based compensation plans as Parent may establish from time to time (collectively, the “Plans”). The Executive shall be considered for such grants no
less often than annually as part of the Board’s annual compensation review, but any such grants shall be at the sole discretion of the Board. 
 III. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS 
 3.1 General. Subject only to any
post-employment rights under Article V, so long as the Executive is employed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, he shall be eligible for the following benefits to the extent generally available to senior executives of the Company or by
virtue of his position, tenure, salary and other qualifications. Any eligibility shall be subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s benefits policies and applicable plans (including as to deductibles, premium
sharing, co-payments or other cost-splitting arrangements). 
 3.2 Savings and Retirement Plans. The Executive
shall be entitled to participate in, and enjoy the benefits of, all savings, pension, salary continuation and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs available to senior executives of the Company. 

3.3 Welfare and Other Benefits. The Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible dependents, as the case may be, shall be
entitled to participate in, and enjoy the benefits of, all welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the Company (including without limitation, medical, prescription, drug, dental, disability, salary continuance, group
life, dependent life, accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and programs) and other benefits (including, without limitation, executive physicals and tax and financial planning assistance) at a level that is available to other senior
executives of the Company. 
 3.4 Vacation. The Executive shall be entitled to 4 weeks paid vacation per 12-month
period. 

  
 4 

 3.5 Expenses. The Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement
for all reasonable business-related expenses incurred by the Executive in performing his duties under this Agreement. Reimbursement of the Executive for such expenses will be made upon presentation to the Company of expense vouchers that are in
sufficient detail to identify the nature of the expense, the amount of the expense, the date the expense was incurred and to whom payment was made to incur the expense, all in accordance with the expense reimbursement practices, policies and
procedures of the Company. 
 3.6 Key Man Insurance. The Company shall be entitled to obtain a “key man”
or similar life or disability insurance policy on the Executive, and neither the Executive nor any of his family members, heirs or beneficiaries shall be entitled to the proceeds thereof. Such insurance shall be available to offset any payments due
to the Executive pursuant to Section 5.1 of this Agreement due to his death or Disability. 
 IV. TERMINATION OF
EMPLOYMENT 
 4.1 Termination by Mutual Agreement. The Executive’s employment may be terminated at any
time during the Term by mutual written agreement of the Company and the Executive. 
 4.2 Death. The
Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death. 
 4.3 Disability. In the event the
Executive incurs a Disability for a continuous period exceeding 90 days or for a total of 180 days during any period of 12 consecutive months, the Company may, at its election, terminate the Executive’s employment during the Term by delivering
a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 4.8) to the Executive 30 days in advance of the date of termination. 
 4.4 Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment at any time during the Term for Good Reason by delivering a Notice of Termination to the Company 30 days in advance of the date of
termination; provided, however, that the Executive agrees not to terminate his employment for Good Reason until the Executive has given the Company at least 30 days’ in which to cure the circumstances set forth in the Notice of
Termination constituting Good Reason and if such circumstances are not cured by the 30th day, the Executive’s employment shall terminate on such date. If the circumstances constituting Good Reason are remedied within the cure period to the reasonable satisfaction of the Executive, such
event shall no longer constitute Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement and the Executive shall thereafter have no further right hereunder to terminate his employment for Good Reason as a result of such event. Unless the Executive provides
written notification of an event described in the definition of Good Reason within 90 days after the Executive has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any such event, the Executive shall be deemed to have consented thereto and such event shall no
longer constitute Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 5 

 4.5 Termination without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment at any time during the Term without Cause by delivering to the Executive a Notice of Termination 30 days in advance of the date of termination; provided that as part of such notice the Company may request that the Executive immediately
tender the resignations contemplated by Section 4.9 and otherwise cease performing his duties hereunder. The Notice of Termination need not state any reason for termination and such termination can be for any reason or no reason. The date of
termination shall be the date set forth in the Notice of Termination. 
 4.6 Cause. The Company may terminate the
Executive’s employment at any time during the Term for Cause by delivering a Notice of Termination to the Executive. 

4.7 Voluntary Termination. The Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment at any time during the Term by delivering
to the Company a Notice of Termination 30 days in advance of the date of termination (a “Voluntary Termination”). For purposes of this Agreement, a Voluntary Termination shall not include a termination of the Executive’s
employment by reason of death or for Good Reason, but shall include voluntary termination upon retirement in accordance with the Company’s retirement policies. A Voluntary Termination shall not be considered a breach or other violation of this
Agreement. 
 4.8 Notice of Termination. Any termination of employment under this Agreement by the Company or the
Executive requiring a notice of termination shall require delivery of a written notice by one party to the other party (a “Notice of Termination”). A Notice of Termination must indicate the specific termination provision of this
Agreement relied upon and the date of termination. The date of termination specified in the Notice of Termination shall comply with the time periods required under this Article IV, and may in no event be earlier than the date such Notice of
Termination is delivered to or received by the party getting the notice. If the Executive fails to include a date of termination in any Notice of Termination he delivers, the Company may establish such date in its sole discretion. No Notice of
Termination under Section 4.4 shall be effective until the applicable cure period, if any, shall have expired without the Company or the Executive, respectively, having corrected the event or events subject to cure to the reasonable
satisfaction of the other party. The terms “termination” and “termination of employment,” as used herein are intended to mean a termination of employment which constitutes a “separation from service” under
Section 409A. 
 4.9 Resignations. Upon ceasing to be an employee of the Company for any reason, or earlier
upon request by the Company pursuant to Section 4.5, the Executive agrees to immediately tender written resignations to the Company with respect to all officer and director positions he may hold at that time with any member of the Parent Group.

 V. PAYMENTS ON TERMINATION 

5.1 Death; Disability; Resignation for Good Reason; Termination without Cause. If at any time during the Term the
Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated due to his death, Disability, resignation for Good Reason or termination by the Company without Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to the payment and benefits set forth below only:

 (a) Any unpaid base salary and accrued unpaid vacation then owing through the date of termination, which
amounts shall be paid to the Executive within 30 days of the date of termination. 
 (b) If, for the calendar
year prior to the Executive’s termination, Executive has satisfied a sufficient portion of the Goals to be eligible for a bonus under the Bonus Plan, and such bonus has not yet been paid as of the date of Executive’s termination, Executive
shall be paid a bonus under the Bonus Plan for such prior calendar year, which bonus shall be paid at the same time as payments are made to other participants in the Bonus Plan. 

(c) A pro rata amount of any Bonus Plan Incentive Compensation for the fiscal year of his termination of employment (based
on the number of business days he was actually employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the termination of employment occurs) based on the achievement of the Goals for the calendar year of his termination of employment. Nothing in the
foregoing sentence is intended to give the Executive greater rights to such Incentive Compensation than a pro rata portion of what he would ordinarily be entitled to under the Bonus Plan Incentive Compensation that would have been applicable to him
had his employment not been terminated, it being understood that Executive’s termination of employment shall not be used to disqualify Executive from or make him ineligible for a pro rata portion of the Bonus Plan Incentive Compensation to
which he would otherwise have been entitled. The pro rata portion of Bonus Plan Incentive Compensation shall, subject to Section 7.16, be paid at the time such Incentive Compensation is paid to other participants in the Bonus Plan. 

(d) A one-time lump sum severance payment in an amount equal to 100% of the Executive’s Base
Amount plus, for a termination by the Executive for Good Reason or a termination by the Company without Cause only, $12,500 to be used by the Executive for outplacement services. The lump sum severance payment shall be paid on the 60th day following the Executive’s termination of employment,
provided that prior to such time the Executive has signed the release described in Section 5.4 and the applicable revocation period for such release has expired, subject, in the case of termination other than as a result of the Executive’s
death, to Section 7.16. 

  
 7 

 (e) The post-termination exercise period for any options which are vested as
of Executive’s termination of employment shall be as set forth in the applicable award agreement, provided, however, that any provisions in such an award agreement purporting to give the Executive greater post-termination exercise rights
because he is a party to an employment agreement shall not be given effect. 
 (f) Provided the Executive elects
COBRA in a timely manner, for the lesser of 12 months after termination or until the Executive secures coverage from new employment, Executive shall receive a monthly cash payment equal to the cost of continuation coverage under the Company’s
medical and dental benefit plans in which the Executive was participating at the time of his termination of employment at the level at which the Executive was participating at the time of his termination of coverage (e.g. single or family coverage),
less the amount of the employee contribution for such coverage. Such payments shall be subject to all applicable taxes and withholding. 

In the event the Executive’s termination is pursuant to Section 4.2, payment shall be made to the Executive’s heirs, beneficiaries, or
personal representatives, as applicable. Further, any payments by the Company under Section 5.1(d) above pursuant to a termination under Section 4.2 or 4.3 shall be reduced by any payments received by the Executive pursuant to any of the
Company’s employee welfare benefit plans providing for payments in the event of death or Disability. 
 5.2
Termination for Cause; Voluntary Termination. If at any time during the Term the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause or due to a Voluntary Termination, the Executive shall be entitled to only
the following: 
 (a) any unpaid base salary and accrued unpaid vacation then owing through the date of
termination, which amounts shall be paid to the Executive within 30 days of the date of termination. 
 (b)
whatever rights, if any, that are available to the Executive upon such a termination pursuant to the Plans or any award documents related to any stock-based compensation such as stock options, stock appreciation rights or restricted stock grants.
This Agreement does not grant any greater rights with respect to such items than provided for in the Plans or the award documents in the event of any termination for Cause or a Voluntary Termination. 

5.3 Termination following Change of Control. The Executive shall have no specific right to terminate this Agreement or
right to any severance payments or other benefits solely as a result of a Change of Control or Potential Change of Control. However, if during a Change of Control Period during the Term, (a) the Executive terminates his employment with the
Company for Good Reason, or (b) the Company 

  
 8 

 
terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause, the lump sum severance payment under Section 5.1(d) shall be increased from 100% of the Base Amount to 150% of the Base Amount and
the period of monthly payment of COBRA continuation coverage for medical and dental benefits under Section 5.1(f) shall be increased to 18 months from 12 months. The terms and rights with respect to such payments shall otherwise be governed by
Section 5.1. No other rights result from termination during a Change of Control Period; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.3 is intended to limit or impair the rights of the Executive under the Plans or any
documents evidencing any stock-based compensation awards in the event of a Change of Control if such Plans or award documents grant greater rights than are set forth herein. 

5.4 Release. The Company’s obligation to pay or provide any benefits to the Executive following
termination (other than in the event of death pursuant to Section 4.2) is expressly subject to the requirement that (i) the Executive execute the release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Release”) prior to
the 60th day following Executive’s termination of
employment, and (ii) any revocation period for the Release shall have expired prior to the 60th day following Executive’s termination of employment without Executive having breached or revoked the Release. In the event that the Executive does not sign the Release, or signs and later revokes
the Release, all of the Company’s obligations to make payments and provide benefits under this Agreement will terminate in full, and the Executive understands and agrees that he will not be entitled to any severance benefits in connection with
his termination of employment. 
 5.5 Other Benefits. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Article V,
the provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the Executive’s participation in, or terminating distributions and vested rights under, any pension, profit-sharing, insurance or other employee benefit plan of the Parent Group to which the
Executive is entitled pursuant to the terms of such plans, or expense reimbursements he is otherwise entitled to under Section 3.5. 
 5.6 No Mitigation. It will be difficult, and may be impossible, for the Executive to find reasonably comparable employment following the termination of the Executive’s employment, and
the protective provisions under Article VI contained herein will further limit the employment opportunities for the Executive. In addition, the Company’s severance pay policy applicable in general to its salaried employees does not provide for
mitigation, offset or reduction of any severance payment received thereunder. Accordingly, the parties hereto expressly agree that the payment of severance compensation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be liquidated damages, and
that the Executive shall not be required to seek other employment, or otherwise, to mitigate any payment provided for hereunder. 
 5.7 Limitation; No Other Rights. Any amounts due or payable under this Article V are in the nature of severance payments or liquidated damages, or both, and the Executive agrees that such
amounts shall fully compensate the Executive, his dependents, heirs and beneficiaries and the estate of the Executive for any and all direct damages and 

  
 9 

 
consequential damages that they do or may suffer as a result of the termination of the Executive’s employment, or both, and are not in the nature of a penalty. Notwithstanding the above, no
member of the Parent Group shall be liable to the Executive under any circumstances for any consequential, incidental, punitive or similar damages. The Executive expressly acknowledges that the payments and other rights under this Article V shall be
the sole monies or other rights to which the Executive shall be entitled to and such payments and rights will be in lieu of any other rights or remedies he might have or otherwise be entitled to. In the event of any termination under this Article V,
the Executive hereby expressly waives any rights to any other amounts, benefits or other rights, including without limitation whether arising under current or future compensation or severance or similar plans, agreements or arrangements of any
member of the Parent Group (including as a result of changes in (or of) control or similar transactions), unless Executive’s entitlement to participate or receive benefits thereunder has been expressly approved by the Board. Similarly, no one
in the Parent Group shall have any further liability or obligation to the Executive following the date of termination, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. 
 5.8 No Right to Set Off. The Company shall not be entitled to set off against amounts payable to the Executive hereunder any amounts earned by the Executive in other employment, or
otherwise, after termination of his employment with the Company, or any amounts which might have been earned by the Executive in other employment had he sought such other employment. 

5.9 Adjustments Due to Excise Tax. 
 (a) If it is determined that any amount or benefit to be paid or payable to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise in conjunction with his employment (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in conjunction with his employment) would give rise to liability of the Executive for the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, as amended from time to time, or any
successor provision (the “Excise Tax”), then the amount or benefits payable to the Executive (the total value of such amounts or benefits, the “Payments”) shall be reduced by the Company so that no portion of the
Payments to the Executive is subject to the Excise Tax. The Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments by first reducing or eliminating any cash payments (with the payments to be made furthest in the future being reduced first), then by reducing
or eliminating any accelerated vesting of options, then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of restricted stock, then by reducing or eliminating any other remaining Payments. Such reduction shall only be made if the net amount of the
Payments, as so reduced (and after deduction of applicable federal, state, and local income and payroll taxes on such reduced Payments other than the Excise Tax (collectively, the “Deductions”)) is greater than the excess of
(1) the net amount of the Payments, without reduction (but after making the Deductions) over (2) the amount of Excise Tax to which the Executive would be subject in respect of such Payments. 

  
 10 

 (b) In the event it is determined that the Excise Tax may be imposed on the
Executive prior to the possibility of any reductions being made pursuant to Section 5.9(a), the Company and the Executive agree to take such actions as they may mutually agree in writing to take to avoid any such reductions being made or, if
such reduction is not otherwise required by Section 5.9(a), to reduce the amount of Excise Tax imposed. 

(c) The independent public accounting firm serving as the Company’s auditing firm, or such other accounting firm, law
firm or professional consulting services provider of national reputation and experience reasonably acceptable to the Company and Executive (the “Accountants”) shall make in writing in good faith all calculations and determinations
under this Section 5.9, including the assumptions to be used in arriving at any calculations. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations under this Section 5.9, the Accountants and each other party may make reasonable
assumptions and approximations concerning the application of Section 280G and Section 4999. The Company and Executive shall furnish to the Accountants and each other such information and documents as the Accountants and each other may
reasonably request to make the calculations and determinations under this Section 5.9. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants incur in connection with any calculations contemplated hereby. 

VI. PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS 
 6.1 Noncompetition. Without the prior written consent of the Board (which may be withheld in the Board’s sole discretion), so long as the Executive is an employee of the Company or any
other member of the Parent Group and for a twelve-month period thereafter, the Executive agrees that he shall not anywhere in the Prohibited Area, for his own account or the benefit of any other, engage or participate in or assist or otherwise be
connected with a Competing Business. For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive understands that this Section 6.1 prohibits the Executive from acting for himself or as an officer, employee, manager, operator, principal, owner, partner,
shareholder, advisor, consultant of, or lender to, any individual or other Person that is engaged or participates in or carries out a Competing Business or is actively planning or preparing to enter into a Competing Business. The parties agree that
such prohibition shall not apply to the Executive’s passive ownership of not more than 5% of a publicly-traded company. 

6.2 No Solicitation or Interference. So long as the Executive is an employee of the Company or any other member of the
Parent Group (other than while an employee acting solely for the express benefit of the Parent Group) and for a twelve-month period thereafter, the Executive shall not, whether for his own account or for the account or benefit of any other Person,
throughout the Prohibited Area: 
 (a) request, induce or attempt to influence (i) any customer of any
member of the Parent Group to limit, curtail, cancel or terminate any business it transacts with, or products or services it receives from or sells to, or (ii) any Person employed by (or otherwise engaged in providing services for or on behalf
of) any member of the Parent Group to limit, curtail, cancel or terminate any employment, consulting or other service arrangement, with any member of the Parent Group. Such prohibition shall expressly extend to any hiring or enticing away (or any
attempt to hire or entice away) any employee or consultant of the Parent Group. 

  
 11 

 (b) solicit from or sell to any customer any products or services that any
member of the Parent Group provides or is capable of providing to such customer and that are the same as or substantially similar to the products or services that any member of the Parent Group, sold or provided while the Executive was employed
with, or providing services to, any member of the Parent Group. 
 (c) contact or solicit any customer for the
purpose of discussing (i) services or products that are competitive with and the same or closely similar to those offered by any member of the Parent Group or (ii) any past or present business of any member of the Parent Group. 

(d) request, induce or attempt to influence any supplier, distributor or other Person with which any member of the Parent
Group has a business relationship or to limit, curtail, cancel or terminate any business it transacts with any member of the Parent Group. 
 (e) otherwise interfere with the relationship of any member of the Parent Group with any Person which is, or within one-year prior to the Executive’s date of termination was, doing business with,
employed by or otherwise engaged in performing services for, any member of the Parent Group. 
 The twelve-month
post-termination employment period described herein and in Section 6.1 shall be extended to eighteen months in the event of a termination described in Section 5.3. 
 6.3 Confidential Information. During the period of the Executive’s employment with the Company or any member of the Parent Group and at all times thereafter, the Executive shall hold in
secrecy for the Company all Confidential Information that may come to his knowledge, may have come to his attention or may have come into his possession or control while employed by the Company (or otherwise performing services for any member of the
Parent Group). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Executive shall not be required to maintain the confidentiality of any Confidential Information which (a) is or becomes available to the public or others in

  
 12 

 
the industry generally (other than as a result of disclosure or inappropriate use, or caused, by the Executive in violation of this Section 6.3) or (b) the Executive is compelled to
disclose under any applicable laws, regulations or directives of any government agency, tribunal or authority having jurisdiction in the matter or under subpoena. Except as expressly required in the performance of his duties to the Company under
this Agreement, the Executive shall not use for his own benefit or disclose (or permit or cause the disclosure of) to any Person, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information unless such use or disclosure has been specifically authorized in
writing by the Company in advance. During the Executive’s employment and as necessary to perform his duties under Section 1.2, the Company will provide and grant the Executive access to the Confidential Information. The Executive
recognizes that any Confidential Information is of a highly competitive value, will include Confidential Information not previously provided the Executive and that the Confidential Information could be used to the competitive and financial detriment
of any member of the Parent Group if misused or disclosed by the Executive. The Company promises to provide access to the Confidential Information only in exchange for the Executive’s promises contained herein, expressly including the covenants
in Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.4. 
 6.4 Inventions. 

(a) The Executive shall promptly and fully disclose to the Company any and all ideas, improvements, discoveries and
inventions, whether or not they are believed to be patentable (“Inventions”), that the Executive conceives of or first actually reduces to practice, either solely or jointly with others, during the Executive’s employment with
the Company or any other member of the Parent Group, and that relate to the business now or thereafter carried on or contemplated by any member of the Parent Group or that result from any work performed by the Executive for any member of the Parent
Group. 
 (b) The Executive acknowledges and agrees that all Inventions shall be the sole and exclusive property
of the Company (or member of the Parent Group) and are hereby assigned to the Company (or applicable member of the Parent Group). During the term of the Executive’s employment with the Company (or any other member of the Parent Group) and
thereafter, whenever requested to do so by the Company, the Executive shall take such action as may be requested to execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and other instruments that the Company shall deem necessary or appropriate
in order to apply for and obtain Letters Patent of the United States and/or of any foreign countries for such Inventions and in order to assign and convey to the Company (or any other member of the Parent Group) or their nominees the sole and
exclusive right, title and interest in and to such Inventions. 
 (c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that
the provisions of this Section 6.4 do not apply to an Invention: (i) for which no equipment, supplies, or facility of any member of the Parent Group or Confidential Information was used;

  
 13 

 
(ii) that was developed entirely on the Executive’s own time and does not involve the use of Confidential Information; (iii) that does not relate directly to the business of any member
of the Parent Group or to the actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of any member of the Parent Group; and (iv) that does not result from any work performed by the Executive for any member of the Parent Group. 

6.5 Return of Documents and Property. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the Executive (or
his heirs or personal representatives) shall immediately deliver to the Company (a) all documents and materials containing Confidential Information (including without limitation any “soft” copies or computerized or electronic versions
thereof) or otherwise containing information relating to the business and affairs of any member of the Parent Group (whether or not confidential), and (b) all other documents, materials and other property belonging to any member of the Parent
Group that are in the possession or under the control of the Executive. 
 6.6 Reasonableness; Remedies. The
Executive acknowledges that each of the restrictions set forth in this Article VI are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company’s business and opportunities (and those of the Parent Group) and that a breach of any of the
covenants contained in this Article VI would result in material irreparable injury to the Company and the other members of the Parent Group for which there is no adequate remedy at law and that it will not be possible to measure damages for such
injuries precisely. Accordingly, the Company and any member of the Parent Group shall be entitled to the remedies of injunction and specific performance, or either of such remedies, as well as all other remedies to which any member of the Parent
Group may be entitled, at law, in equity or otherwise, without the need for the posting of a bond or by the posting of the minimum bond that may otherwise be required by law or court order. 

6.7 Extension; Survival. The Executive and the Company agree that the time periods identified in this Article VI will be
stayed, and the Company’s obligation to make any payments or provide any benefits under Article V shall be suspended, during the period of any breach or violation by the Executive of the covenants contained herein. The parties further agree
that this Article VI shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. The Executive acknowledges that his agreement to each of the provisions of this Article VI is fundamental to the Company’s willingness to enter
into this Agreement and for it to provide for the severance and other benefits described in Article V, none of which the Company was required to do prior to the date hereof. Further, it is the express intent and desire of the parties for each
provision of this Article VI to be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any part of this Article VI, or any provision hereof, is deemed illegal, void, unenforceable or overly broad (including as to time, scope and geography), the
parties express desire is that such provision be reformed to the fullest extent possible to ensure its enforceability or if such reformation is deemed impossible then such provision shall be severed from this Agreement, but the remainder of this
Agreement (expressly including the other provisions of this Article VI) shall remain in full force and effect.

prevailed on a material issue of the arbitration. If there is any dispute between the Company and the Executive as to the payment of such fees and expenses, the arbitrator shall resolve such dispute, which resolution shall also be final and binding

of doubt, the parties expressly intend that this provision extend to Article VI of this Agreement. 
 7.4 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede any and all previous contracts, arrangements or understandings between the Company, the Parent and the
Executive relating to the Executive’s employment by the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall modify or alter the Indemnity Agreement dated March 2, 2011, by and between Parent and the Executive (the “Indemnity
Agreement”) or alter or impair any of the Executive’s rights under the Plans or related award agreements. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other agreement between the Executive and the Company (or any other
member of the Parent Group), this Agreement shall control. 
 7.5 Amendment; Modification. Except for

however, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Plans (or any award documents under the Plans) or the Indemnity Agreement, the Company may reform this Agreement, the Plans (or any award documents under the Plans),
the Indemnity Agreement or any provision thereof (including, without limitation, an amendment instituting a six-month waiting period before a distribution) or otherwise as contemplated by Section 7.16 below.

the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of the Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted

shall be the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 7.8 Governing
Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted, and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without regard to any provision of that State’s rules on the conflicts of law that might make applicable the
law of a jurisdiction other than that of the State of Texas. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.2, all actions or proceedings arising out of this Agreement shall exclusively be heard and determined in state or federal courts in the State
of Texas having appropriate jurisdiction. The parties expressly consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such action or proceeding and waive any objection to venue laid therein or any claim for forum nonconveniens. 

7.9 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by the
Executive, the Company, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns. In the event of a Business Combination (as defined in clause (iii) of Change of Control), the provisions of this
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parent or entity resulting from such Business Combination or to which the assets shall be sold or transferred, which entity from and after the date of such Business Combination shall be
deemed to be the Company for purposes of this Agreement. In the event of any other assignment of this Agreement by the Company, the Company shall remain primarily liable for its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that if the
Company is financially unable to meet its obligations hereunder, the Parent shall assume responsibility for the Company’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the guaranty provision following the

  
 17 

 
signature page hereof. The Executive expressly acknowledges that the Parent and other members of the Parent Group (and their successors and assigns) are third party beneficiaries of this
Agreement and may enforce this Agreement on behalf of themselves or the Company. Both parties agree that there are no third party beneficiaries to this Agreement other than as expressly set forth in this Section 7.9. 

7.10 Nonassignability. Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable by the Executive, his
beneficiaries, dependents or legal representatives without the Company’s prior written consent; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.10 shall preclude (a) the Executive from designating a beneficiary to
receive any benefit payable hereunder upon his death or (b) the executors, administrators or other legal representatives of the Executive or his estate from assigning any rights hereunder to the Person(s) entitled thereto. 

7.11 No Attachment. Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to
anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge or hypothecation in favor of any third party, or to execution, attachment, levy or similar process or assignment by operation of law in favor of any third party,
and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void and of no effect. 
 7.12
Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver
or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or
condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 
 7.13 Construction. The headings
of articles or sections herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. References to days found herein shall be actual calendar days and not
business days unless expressly provided otherwise. 
 7.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by any of
the parties hereto in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 
 7.15 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date when signed by the Executive and the Company. 

7.16 Code Section 409A. 
 (a) It is the intent of the parties that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A and, accordingly, to interpret, to the

  
 18 

 
maximum extent permitted, this Agreement to be in compliance therewith. If the Executive notifies the Company in writing (with specificity as to the reason therefore) that the Executive believes
that any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation, including equity compensation or benefits) would cause the Executive to incur any additional tax or interest under Section 409A and the Company concurs with such belief or
the Company (without any obligation whatsoever to do so) independently makes such determination, the parties shall, in good faith, reform such provision to try to comply with Code Section 409A through good faith modifications to the minimum
extent reasonably appropriate to conform with Code Section 409A. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified by the parties to try to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the
maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to assume any economic burden
in connection therewith. 
 (b) If the Executive is deemed on the date of “separation from service” to
be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then, with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is specified as subject to this Section, such payment or benefit shall, if
required to avoid the imposition of additional tax or interest under Section 409A, be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from
service” of the Executive, and (B) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 7.16 (whether they would
have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in
accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. If a payment is to be made promptly after a date, it shall be made within sixty (60) days thereafter. 
 (c) Any expense reimbursement under this Agreement shall be made promptly upon Executive’s presentation to the Company of evidence of the fees and expenses incurred by the Executive and in
all events on or before the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred by the Executive, and no such reimbursement or the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year shall in
any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. 
 7.17 Survival. As provided in
Section 1.3 with respect to expiration of the Term, Articles VI and VII shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason.

 EXHIBIT A 

Definitions 
 For purposes of this Agreement, the following capitalized terms have the meanings set forth below:

bonus as if such bonus were not pro-rated to reflect his employment for a period of less than 365 days during the 2010 calendar year) or, (B) if greater, with respect to the two consecutive annual Incentive Compensation periods ending
immediately prior to the Change of Control Date or the Potential Change of Control Date.

Parent Group including without limitation (a) if the Executive has undertaken to provide any certification or related back-up material required for the chief and principal executive and financial officers to provide a certification required
under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), and he willfully or materially fails to take reasonable and

Executive’s willful or material failure to establish and administer effective systems and controls applicable to his area of responsibility necessary for the Parent to timely and accurately file reports pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of

Parent; or (4) any acquisition pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (iii) of this definition of Change of Control; 

(ii) a change in the composition of the Board such that the individuals who as of the Effective Date constitute the Board
(the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, for purposes of this paragraph, that any individual who becomes a member of the Board subsequent to the
Effective Date, whose appointment, election, or nomination for election by Parent’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of those individuals who are members of the Board and who were also members of the Incumbent Board
(or deemed to be such pursuant to this proviso) shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board; but provided further that any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of
either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the
Board shall not be so considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; 

  
 22

expressly excluding, however, any such Business Combination pursuant to which all of the following conditions are met: (A) all or substantially all of the Person(s) who are the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Common Stock and
Outstanding Voting Securities, respectively, immediately prior to such Business Combination will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock, and the combined voting power of the
outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns
Parent or all or substantially all of Parent’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the Outstanding Common Stock
and Outstanding Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person (other than Parent, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of Parent or such entity resulting from such Business Combination) will beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, 50% or more of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock of the entity resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of such entity entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (C) individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board will constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of
directors of the entity resulting from such Business Combination; 
 (iv) the approval by the shareholders of
Parent of a complete liquidation or dissolution of Parent; 
 (v) the Parent Group (or any of them) shall sell or
dispose of, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, business operations that generated two-thirds of the consolidated revenues of the Parent Group (determined on the basis of Parent’s four most recently completed fiscal
quarters for which reports have been filed under the Exchange Act) and such disposal shall not be exempted pursuant to clause (iii) of this definition of Change of Control; 

(vi) Parent files a report or proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act
disclosing in response to Form 8-K or Schedule 14A (or any successor schedule, form or report or item therein) that a change of control of Parent has or may have occurred or will or may occur in the future pursuant to any then-existing agreement or
transaction; notwithstanding the foregoing, unless determined in a specific case by a majority vote of the Board, a “Change of Control” shall not be deemed to have occurred solely because: (A) an entity in which Parent directly
or indirectly beneficially 

  
 23 

 
owns 50% or more of the voting securities, or any Parent-sponsored employee stock ownership plan, or any other employee plan of Parent or the Company, either files or becomes obligated to file a
report or a proxy statement under or in response to Schedule 13D, Schedule 14D-1, Form 8-K or Schedule 14A (or any successor schedule, form or report or item therein) under the Exchange Act, disclosing beneficial ownership by form or report or item
therein, disclosing beneficial ownership by it of shares of stock of Parent, or because Parent reports that a change of control of Parent has or may have occurred or will or may occur in the future by reason of such beneficial ownership or
(B) any Parent-sponsored employee stock ownership plan, or any other employee plan of Parent or the Company, either files or becomes obligated to file a report or a proxy statement under or in response to Schedule 13D, Schedule 14D-1, Form 8-K
or Schedule 14A (or any successor schedule, form or report or item therein) under the Exchange Act, disclosing beneficial ownership by form or report or item therein, disclosing beneficial ownership by it of shares of stock of Parent, or because
Parent reports that a change of control of Parent has or may have occurred or will or may occur in the future by reason of such beneficial ownership; or 
 (vii) any other transaction or series of related transactions occur that have substantially the effect of the transactions specified in any of the preceding clauses in this definition. 

Notwithstanding the above definition of Change of Control, the Board, in its sole discretion, may determine that a Change of Control has occurred for
purposes of this Agreement, even if the events giving rise to such Change of Control are not expressly described in the above definition. 
 “Change of Control Date” shall mean the date on which a Change of Control occurs. 
 “Change of Control Period” shall mean the 24 month period commencing on the Change of Control Date; provided, however, if the Company terminates the Executive’s
employment with the Company prior to the Change of Control Date but on or after a Potential Change of Control Date, and it is reasonably demonstrated that the Executive’s (i) employment was terminated at the request of an unaffiliated
third party who has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control or (ii) termination of employment otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of the Change of Control, then the “Change of Control

or collectively) manufactured, marketed or sold by any member of the Parent Group during Term or (B) products or services so similar in nature to that of any member of the Parent Group during Term (or that any member of the Parent Group will
soon thereafter offer) that they would be reasonably likely to displace substantial business opportunities or customers of the Parent Group. 
 “Confidential Information” shall include Trade Secrets and includes information acquired by the Executive in the course and scope of his activities under this Agreement, including
information acquired from third parties, that (i) is not generally known or disseminated outside the Parent Group (such as non-public information), (ii) is designated or marked by any member of the Parent Group as “confidential”
or reasonably should be considered confidential or proprietary, or (iii) any member of the Parent Group indicates through its policies, procedures, or other instructions should not be disclosed to anyone outside the Parent Group. Without
limiting the foregoing definitions, some examples of Confidential Information under this Agreement include (a) matters of a technical nature, such as scientific, trade or engineering secrets, “know-how”, formulae, secret processes,
inventions, and research and development plans or projects regarding existing and prospective customers and products or services, (b) information about costs, profits, markets, sales, customer lists, customer needs, customer preferences and
customer purchasing histories, supplier lists, internal financial data, personnel evaluations, non-public information about medical devices or products of any member of the Parent Group (including future plans about them), information and material

Company carries at the time of termination that would apply to the Executive. Otherwise, the term “Disability” shall mean the inability of the Executive to perform his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement as a result of

material diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice
thereof given by the Executive; (2) the Company’s material reduction of the Executive’s Base Salary or bonus opportunity, each as in effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time; (3) the relocation

 EXHIBIT B 
 RELEASE 
 In exchange for the consideration set forth in the Employment
Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2011, by and among Orthofix Inc. (the “Company”) and myself (the “Employment Agreement”), the respective terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, I, Bryan McMillan,
am entering into this Release (this “Release”) for good and valuable consideration as required by the Employment Agreement, and agree as follows: 
 1. GENERAL RELEASE. 
 (a) On behalf of myself, my heirs, executors, successors and
assigns, I irrevocably and unconditionally release, waive and forever discharge the Company, its members, divisions, subsidiaries, affiliates and related companies, including the Company Group (as defined below), or any member of the Company Group,
and their present and former agents, employees, officers, directors, attorneys, stockholders, plan fiduciaries, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action,
costs, fees and all liability whatsoever, whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, suspected or unsuspected (collectively, “Claims”), which I had, have, or may have against Releasees relating to or arising out of my employment
by or separation from the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and parents, including, without limitation, Orthofix International N.V. (collectively, the “Company Group”), up to and including the date of execution of
this Release, other than my right to receive the severance payments and other benefits and consideration described in the Employment Agreement. This Release includes, without limitation: (i) claims at law or equity or sounding in contract
(express or implied) or tort; (ii) claims arising under any federal, state or local laws of any jurisdiction that prohibit age, sex, race, national origin, color, disability, religion, veteran or military status, sexual orientation or any other

separation from the Company. I further covenant not to sue any of the Releasees with respect to any matters released hereby. 

 (b) This release does not include a release or waiver of any rights or claims I have, or
might subsequently have in my capacity as a stockholder of Orthofix International N.V. In addition, this Release shall not release the Company from its continuing obligation to honor the terms of the Employment Agreement. However, this Release shall
remain in full force and effect regardless of any claim by me that the Company failed to honor the terms of the Employment Agreement. In the event of any such dispute, my sole remedy against the Company shall be to enforce the terms of the
Employment Agreement. I am also not waiving, and nothing in this Release is intended to waive, any right to coverage under any directors and officers insurance coverage, if any, provided by the Company, the Company Group, or any member of the
Company Group, to which I might be entitled. I am also not waiving, and nothing in this Release is intended to waive any claims I may have for unemployment insurance or workers’ compensation benefits, state disability compensation, claims for
any vested benefits under any Company-sponsored benefit plan, or any claims that, as a matter of law, may not be released by private agreement. I am also not waiving, and nothing in this Release is intended to waive, any claims relating to the
validity or enforceability of this Release; or any non-waivable right to file a charge with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”) or the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”);
provided, however, that I shall not be entitled to recover any monetary damages or to non-monetary relief if the EEOC or NLRB were to pursue any claims relating to my employment with the Company. 

EXCEPT AS OUTLINED ABOVE, THIS MEANS THAT, BY SIGNING THIS RELEASE, I WILL WAIVE ANY RIGHT I MAY HAVE HAD TO PURSUE OR BRING A LAWSUIT OR MAKE ANY LEGAL
CLAIM AGAINST THE COMPANY OR THE RELEASEES THAT IN ANY WAY ARISES FROM OR RELATES TO MY EMPLOYMENT OR THE TERMINATION OF THAT EMPLOYMENT, UP TO AND INCLUDING THE DATE OF THE EXECUTION OF THIS RELEASE. 

(c) I acknowledge that different or additional facts may be discovered in addition to what I now know or believe to be true with respect
to the matters herein released, and I agree that this Release shall be and remain in effect in all respects as a complete and final release of the matters released, notwithstanding any such different or additional facts. I represent and warrant that
I have not previously filed or joined in any claims against the Company or any of the Releasees, that I have not given or sold any portion of any claims released herein to anyone else, and that I will indemnify and hold harmless the Releasees from
all liabilities, claims, demands, costs, expenses and/or attorneys’ fees incurred as a result of any such assignment or transfer. 
 (d) I acknowledge that I have been given an opportunity of twenty one (21) days to consider this Release, but I may voluntarily waive that period by signing it earlier, and I acknowledge that I am
being advised herein to consult with legal counsel of my own choosing prior to executing this Release. I understand that for a period ending at the end of the seventh calendar day following my execution of this Release (“Revocation
Period”), I shall have the right to revoke this Release by delivering a written notice of 

 
revocation to Robert S. Vaters, Orthofix Inc., Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer, 3451 Plano Pkwy, Lewisville, TX 75056 no later than the end of the seventh calendar day after
I sign this Release. I understand and agree that this Release will not be effective and enforceable until after the Revocation Period expires without revocation, and if I elect to exercise this revocation right, this Release shall be voided in its
entirety, and the Company shall be relieved of all obligations under this Release and all obligations under the Employment Agreement as provided therein. This Release shall be effective on the eighth calendar day after it is executed by me
(“Effective Date”) provided it has not been previously revoked as provided herein. 
 2. I agree to keep this
