interests to elect members by a separate class vote); (ii) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iii) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or (C) during any 12-month period, a majority of

or (F) your violation of any material policies, practices, or procedures of Bioventus. The determination that a termination is for Cause shall be made by Bioventus at its sole discretion. 

(3) Definition of Good Reason. “Good Reason” for you to terminate your employment shall mean the occurrence of any one of the
following events without either (x) your express prior written consent or (y) full cure within 30 days after you give written notice to the Company: (i) material diminution in duties or responsibilities; (ii) a material reduction in your salary,

Severance Benefits 
 (1) If, at any time

such COBRA reimbursement shall terminate on such earlier date as you are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage or you become eligible for group health insurance benefits through a new employer).

 (3) Your receipt of the Severance Benefits or CIC Severance Benefits, as applicable, is conditional upon (a) your continuing to comply

 Section 409A 

 David John Price 

July 20, 2016 
 Page 4 

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

You and the Company acknowledge and agree that you are a party to that certain Proprietary Information, Inventions, Non-Solicitation, and Non-Competition
Agreement with Bioventus (the “Proprietary Information Agreement”) which prohibits unauthorized use or disclosure of Bioventus’ proprietary information and contains certain post-employment non-competition and non-solicitation
obligations, among other obligations, and that the Proprietary Information Agreement remains in full force and effect; provided that for purposes of the Proprietary Information Agreement on and following the IPO the terms “Company” and
“Bioventus” will mean, collectively, Bioventus LLC and Bioventus Inc. In addition, you are expected to continue to comply with the Proprietary Information Agreement and that you will continue to abide by Bioventus’ Code of Conduct and
Bioventus’ policies, as may be changed from time to time at Bioventus’ sole discretion. 
 Non-Disparagement 

During and after your employment, you and Bioventus agree not to make any statement that criticizes, ridicules, disparages, or is otherwise derogatory of the
other or is reasonably likely to be harmful to you or Bioventus, or to your or Bioventus’ respective businesses, business reputations or personal reputations; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall restrict either party from
making truthful statements (a) when required by law, subpoena, court order or the like; (b) when requested by a governmental, regulatory, or similar body or entity; (c) in confidence to a professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional
advice; (d) in the ordinary course of performing your or its duties during your employment; (e) from rebutting any statement made or written about you or it; or (f) from making normal competitive statements about Bioventus’ business or
products.

 Outside Activities 

Throughout your employment with Bioventus, you may engage in civic and not-for-profit activities so long as such activities do not interfere with the
performance of your duties hereunder or violate the Bioventus Conflict of Interest Policy. 
 Assignment 

This Agreement may be assigned by Bioventus to a person or entity which is an affiliate or a successor in interest to substantially all of the business
operations of Bioventus. Upon such assignment, the rights and obligations of Bioventus hereunder shall become the rights and obligations of such affiliate or successor person. You may not assign your rights or obligations to another entity or
person. 
 Indemnification 
 You shall be entitled to
indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and the Bioventus LLC Operating Agreement or Bioventus Inc. Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as applicable. At all times during your employment, the Company shall maintain in
effect a directors and officers liability insurance policy with you as a covered officer. The Company shall further provide and pay for the defense of any action, arbitration or mediation (collectively, an “Action”) relative to the
lawful performance of your duties or in connection with your employment at the Company and the existence of such Action or defense shall not provide grounds for termination of your employment. 

Notice of Immunity 
 Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement or the Proprietary Information Agreement to the contrary, (i) you shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal,
State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; (ii) you shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the
disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal; and (iii) if you file a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation
of law, you may disclose the trade secret to your attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if you file any document containing the trade secret under seal; and do not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court
order. 
 Section 280G Parachute Payments 

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

You acknowledges and agree that, to the extent the Company adopts any clawback or similar policy pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act or otherwise, and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, you will take all action necessary or appropriate to comply with such a clawback policy (including, without limitation, entering into any further agreements,
amendments or policies necessary or appropriate to implement and/or enforce such policy).

409A”) or shall comply with the requirements of such provision. After the Termination Date, you shall have no duties or responsibilities that are inconsistent with having a “separation from service” (within the meaning of
Section 409A) as of the Termination Date and, notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, distributions upon termination of employment of nonqualified deferred compensation may only be made upon a “separation from
service” (as determined under Section 409A) and such date shall be the Termination Date for purposes of this Agreement. Each payment under this Agreement or otherwise shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of
Section 409A. In no event may you, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this Agreement which constitutes a “nonqualified deferral of compensation” (within the meaning of
Section 409A) and to the extent an amount is payable within a time period, the time during which such amount is paid shall be in the discretion of Bioventus. To the extent that any reimbursements are taxable to you, any such reimbursement
payment due to you shall be paid to you on or before the last day of the calendar year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. The reimbursements are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the
amount of such reimbursements that you receive in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such reimbursements that you receive in any other taxable year. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are deemed at
the time of your separation from service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the termination benefits to which you are entitled under
this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of your termination benefits shall not be provided to you prior to the earlier of (A) the expiration of the
six-month period measured from the date of your “separation from service” with the Company or (B) the date of your death; upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to
you, and any remaining payments due under the Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. 
 Compliance with Proprietary Information Agreement
and Bioventus Policies 
 You and the Company acknowledge and agree that you are a party to that certain Proprietary Information, Inventions,
Non-Solicitation, and Non-Competition Agreement with Bioventus (the “Proprietary Information Agreement”) which prohibits unauthorized use or disclosure of Bioventus’ proprietary information and contains certain post-employment
non-competition and non-solicitation obligations, among other obligations, and that the Proprietary Information Agreement remains in full force and effect; provided that for purposes of the Proprietary Information Agreement on and following the IPO
the terms “Company” and “Bioventus” will mean, collectively, Bioventus LLC and Bioventus Inc. In addition, you are expected to continue to comply with the Proprietary Information Agreement and that you will continue to abide by
Bioventus’ Code of Conduct and Bioventus’ policies, as may be changed from time to time at Bioventus’ sole discretion. 

Non-Disparagement 
 During and after your employment, you
and Bioventus agree not to make any statement that criticizes, ridicules, disparages, or is otherwise derogatory of the other or is reasonably likely to be harmful to you or Bioventus, or to your or Bioventus’ respective businesses, business
reputations or personal reputations; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall restrict either party from making truthful statements (a) when required by law, subpoena, court order or the like; (b) when requested by a
governmental, regulatory, or similar body or entity; (c) in confidence to a professional advisor for the purpose of securing professional advice; (d) in the ordinary course of performing your or its duties during your employment;
(e) from rebutting any statement made or written about you or it; or (f) from making normal competitive statements about Bioventus’ business or products.

 Outside Activities 

Throughout your employment with Bioventus, you may engage in civic and not-for-profit activities so long as such activities do not interfere with the
performance of your duties hereunder or violate the Bioventus Conflict of Interest Policy. 
 Assignment 

This Agreement may be assigned by Bioventus to a person or entity which is an affiliate or a successor in interest to substantially all of the business
operations of Bioventus. Upon such assignment, the rights and obligations of Bioventus hereunder shall become the rights and obligations of such affiliate or successor person. You may not assign your rights or obligations to another entity or
person. 
 Indemnification 
 You shall be entitled to
indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and the Bioventus LLC Operating Agreement or Bioventus Inc. Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as applicable. At all times during your employment, the Company shall maintain in
effect a directors and officers liability insurance policy with you as a covered officer. The Company shall further provide and pay for the defense of any action, arbitration or mediation (collectively, an “Action”) relative to the
lawful performance of your duties or in connection with your employment at the Company and the existence of such Action or defense shall not provide grounds for termination of your employment. 

Notice of Immunity 
 Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement or the Proprietary Information Agreement to the contrary, (i) you shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal,
State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; (ii) you shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the
disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal; and (iii) if you file a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected
violation of law, you may disclose the trade secret to your attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if you file any document containing the trade secret under seal; and do not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant
to court order. 
 Section 280G Parachute Payments 

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

You acknowledges and agree that, to the extent the Company adopts any clawback or similar policy pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act or otherwise, and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, you will take all action necessary or appropriate to comply with such a clawback policy (including, without limitation, entering into any further agreements,
amendments or policies necessary or appropriate to implement and/or enforce such policy).
