 Exhibit 4.4 
 BIOMIMETIC THERAPEUTICS, INC. 
 2012 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

1. DEFINED TERMS 
 Exhibit
A, which is incorporated by reference, defines the terms used in the Plan and sets forth certain operational rules related to those terms. 

2. PURPOSE 
 The Plan has been
established to advance the interests of the Company by providing for the grant to Participants of Stock-based incentive Awards. 
 3.
ADMINISTRATION 
 The Administrator has discretionary authority, subject only to the express provisions of the Plan, to interpret
the Plan; determine eligibility for and grant Awards; determine, modify or waive the terms and conditions of any Award; prescribe forms, rules and procedures relating to the Plan; and otherwise do all things necessary to carry out the purposes of
the Plan. Determinations of the Administrator made under the Plan will be conclusive and will bind all parties. 
 4. LIMITS ON AWARDS UNDER THE
PLAN 
 (a) Number of Shares. The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered in satisfaction of Awards under
the Plan is 4,000,000, plus any shares of Stock that become available for grant under the Company’s 2001 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan after February 29, 2012 as a result of the termination or forfeiture of awards under the Company’s
2001 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, subject to an annual increase to be added on the date of each specified annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company, beginning with the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders and ending with the 2021 annual
meeting of stockholders, equal to two percent (2%) of the number of shares of Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of the close of business on the immediately preceding day (calculated by adding to the number of shares of Stock
outstanding, all outstanding securities convertible into Stock on such date on an as converted basis); provided, that in no event shall such annual increase cause the number of shares of Stock available under the Plan to exceed twenty percent
(20%) of the number of shares of Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of the close of business on the immediately preceding day (calculated by adding to the number of shares of Stock outstanding, all outstanding securities convertible
into Stock on such date on an as converted basis). Up to 4,000,000 shares available for Awards to employee Participants may be issued in satisfaction of ISOs, but nothing in this Section 4(a) will be construed as requiring that any, or any
fixed number of, ISOs be awarded under the Plan. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the number of shares of Stock delivered in satisfaction of Awards will be determined net of shares of Stock underlying the portion of any Award that is settled
in cash or the portion of any Stock Option or SAR that expires, terminates or is forfeited prior to the issuance of Stock thereunder. 
 (b) Type of Shares. Stock delivered by the Company under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Stock or previously issued Stock acquired by the Company. No fractional shares of Stock will be
delivered under the Plan. 
 (c) Section 162(m) Limits. The maximum number of shares of Stock for which Stock
Options may be granted to any person in any calendar year and the maximum number of shares of Stock subject to SARs granted to any person in any calendar year will each be 800,000. The maximum number of shares of Stock subject to other Awards
granted to any person in any calendar year will be 800,000 shares. The foregoing provisions will be construed in a manner consistent with Section 162(m).

 5. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 
 The Administrator will select Participants from among Employees and directors of, and consultants and advisors to, the Company and its Affiliates to attract, retain and motivate such persons to contribute
to the achievement of the long-term goals and success of the Company and its Affiliates. Eligibility for ISOs is limited to employees of the Company or of a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” of the Company as those
terms are defined in Section 424 of the Code. Eligibility for Stock Options other than ISOs is limited to individuals described in the first sentence of this Section 5 who are providing direct services on the date of grant of the Stock
Option to the Company or to a subsidiary of the Company that would be described in the first sentence of Treas. Regs. §1.409A-1(b)(5)(iii)(E). 
 6. RULES APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 
 (a) All Awards. 

(1) Award Provisions. The Administrator will determine the terms of all Awards, subject to the limitations provided
herein. The terms and conditions of any Award to any Participant shall be reflected in an Award Agreement having such form as is determined by the Committee. A copy of the Award Agreement shall be provided to the Participant, and the Committee may,
but need not, require that the Participant sign a copy of the Award Agreement. By accepting (or, under such rules as the Administrator may prescribe, being deemed to have accepted) an Award, the Participant will be deemed to have agreed to the terms
of the Award and the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, awards of an acquired company that are converted, replaced or adjusted in connection with the acquisition may contain terms and conditions that are inconsistent
with the terms and conditions specified herein, as determined by the Administrator. If the Date of Adoption occurs prior to the date the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders, Awards may be granted hereunder immediately upon the Date
of Adoption provided that such Awards shall be contingent on approval of the Plan by the stockholders within twelve months of the Date of Adoption and consistent with the requirements for shareholder approval of matters requiring shareholder
approval under the Company’s organizational documents and under applicable corporate and tax law and any applicable listing requirements or standards. 
 (2) Term of Plan. No Awards may be made after ten years from the Date of Adoption, but previously granted Awards may continue beyond that date in accordance with their terms. 

(3) Transferability. Neither ISOs nor, except as the Administrator otherwise expressly provides in accordance with
the third sentence of this Section 6(a)(3), other Awards may be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During a Participant’s lifetime, ISOs (and, except as the Administrator otherwise expressly provides
in accordance with the third sentence of this Section 6(a)(3), SARs and NSOs) may be exercised only by the Participant. The Administrator may permit the gratuitous transfer (i.e., transfer not for value) of Awards other than ISOs, subject to
such limitations as the Administrator may impose. 
 (4) Vesting, etc. The Administrator will determine
the time or times at which an Award will vest or become exercisable and the terms on which a Stock Option or SAR will remain exercisable. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator may at any time accelerate the vesting or exercisability of
an Award, regardless of any adverse or potentially adverse tax or other consequences resulting from such acceleration. Unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, however, the following rules will apply if a Participant’s Employment
ceases: 
 (A) Immediately upon the cessation of the Participant’s Employment and except as provided in
(B) and (C) below, each Stock Option and SAR that is then held by the Participant or by the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, will cease to be exercisable and will terminate and all other Awards that are then held by the
Participant or by the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, to the extent not already vested will be forfeited. 

  
 Page 2

 (B) Subject to (C) and (D) below, all Stock Options and SARs held
by the Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s Employment, to the extent then exercisable, will remain exercisable for the lesser of (i) a period of three
months or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 

(C) All Stock Options and SARs held by a Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately
prior to the Participant’s death, to the extent then exercisable, will remain exercisable for the lesser of (i) the one year period ending with the first anniversary of the Participant’s death or (ii) the period ending on the
latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 
 (D) All Stock Options and SARs (whether or not exercisable) held by a Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s
Employment will immediately terminate upon such cessation of Employment if the termination is for Cause or occurs in circumstances that in the sole determination of the Administrator would have constituted grounds for the Participant’s
Employment to be terminated for Cause. 
 (5) Additional Restrictions. The Administrator may cancel,
rescind, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict any Award at any time if the Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and the Plan, or if the Participant breaches any agreement with the Company or its
Affiliates with respect to non-competition, non-solicitation or confidentiality. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator may recover Awards made under the Plan and payments under or gain in respect of any Award to the
extent required to comply with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any stock exchange or similar rule adopted under said Section. 

(6) Taxes. The delivery, vesting and retention of Stock under an Award are conditioned upon full satisfaction by
the Participant of all tax withholding requirements with respect to the Award. The Administrator will prescribe such rules for the withholding of taxes as it deems necessary. The Administrator may, but need not, hold back shares of Stock from an
Award or permit a Participant to tender previously owned shares of Stock in satisfaction of tax withholding requirements (but not in excess of the minimum withholding required by law). 

(7) Dividend Equivalents, Etc. The Administrator may provide for the payment of amounts (on terms and subject to
conditions established by the Administrator) in lieu of cash dividends or other cash distributions with respect to Stock subject to an Award whether or not the holder of such Award is otherwise entitled to share in the actual dividend or
distribution in respect of such Award. Any entitlement to dividend equivalents or similar entitlements will be established and administered either consistent with an exemption from, or in compliance with, the requirements of Section 409A.
Dividends or dividend equivalent amounts payable in respect of Awards that are subject to restrictions may be subject to such limits or restrictions as the Administrator may impose. 

(8) Rights Limited. Nothing in the Plan will be construed as giving any person the right to continued employment or
service with the Company or its Affiliates, or any rights as a stockholder (including voting rights) except as to shares of Stock actually issued under the Plan. The loss of existing or potential profit in Awards will not constitute an element of
damages in the event of termination of Employment for any reason, even if the termination is in violation of an obligation of the Company or any Affiliate to the Participant. 

(9) Section 162(m). In the case of any Performance Award (other than a Stock Option or SAR) intended to
qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), the Administrator will establish the applicable Performance Criterion or Criteria in writing no later than 90 days after the commencement of the period of service to
which the performance relates (or at such earlier time as is required to qualify the Award as performance-based under Section 162(m)) and, prior to the event or occurrence (grant, vesting or payment, as the case may be) that is conditioned on
the attainment of such Performance Criterion or Criteria, will certify whether it or they have been attained. 

  
 Page 3

 (10) Coordination with Other Plans. Awards under the Plan may be
granted in tandem with, or in satisfaction of or substitution for, other Awards under the Plan or awards made under other compensatory plans or programs of the Company or its Affiliates. For example, but without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, awards under other compensatory plans or programs of the Company or its Affiliates may be settled in Stock (including, without limitation, Unrestricted Stock) if the Administrator so determines, in which case the shares delivered will be
treated as awarded under the Plan (and will reduce the number of shares thereafter available under the Plan in accordance with the rules set forth in Section 4). In any case where an award is made under another plan or program of the Company or
its Affiliates and such award is intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), and such award is settled by the delivery of Stock or another Award under the Plan, the applicable Section 162(m)
limitations under both the other plan or program and under the Plan will be applied to the Plan as necessary (as determined by the Administrator) to preserve the availability of the Section 162(m) performance-based compensation exception with
respect thereto. 
 (11) Section 409A. Each Award will contain such terms as the Administrator
determines, and will be construed and administered, such that the Award either qualifies for an exemption from the requirements of Section 409A or satisfies such requirements. 

(12) Fair Market Value. The fair market value of any share of Stock subject to an Award under the Plan will be the
determined based upon the closing price on the trading day coinciding with or next preceding the determination date, so long as the Stock is readily tradable on an established securities market. If the Stock is not readily tradable on an established
securities market, in determining the fair market value of any share of Stock under the Plan, the Administrator will make the determination in good faith consistent with the rules of Section 422 and Section 409A to the extent applicable.

 (b) Stock Options and SARs. 
 (1) Time And Manner Of Exercise. Unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, no Stock Option or SAR will be deemed to have been exercised until the Administrator receives a notice of
exercise (in form acceptable to the Administrator), which may be an electronic notice, signed (including electronic signature in form acceptable to the Administrator) by the appropriate person and accompanied by any payment required under the Award.
A Stock Option or SAR exercised by any person other than the Participant will not be deemed to have been exercised until the Administrator has received such evidence as it may require that the person exercising the Award has the right to do so.

 (2) Exercise Price. The exercise price (or the base value from which appreciation is to be measured) of
each Award requiring exercise will be no less than 100% (or in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent shareholder within the meaning of subsection (b)(6) of Section 422, 110%) of the fair market value of the Stock subject to the Award,
determined as of the date of grant, or such higher amount as the Administrator may determine in connection with the grant. No such Award, once granted, may be repriced other than with stockholder approval. Fair market value will be determined by the
Administrator consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 422 and Section 409A. 
 (3)
Payment Of Exercise Price. Where the exercise of an Award is to be accompanied by payment, payment of the exercise price will be by cash or check acceptable to the Administrator or, if so permitted by the Administrator and if legally
permissible, (i) through the delivery of shares of Stock that have been outstanding for at least six months (unless the Administrator approves a shorter period) and that have a fair market value equal to the exercise price, (ii) through
the withholding of shares of Stock otherwise to be delivered upon exercise of the Award whose fair market value is equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Award being exercised, (iii) by other means acceptable to the Administrator, or
(iv) by any combination of the foregoing permissible forms of payment. The delivery of shares of Stock in payment of the exercise price under clause (i) above may be accomplished either by actual delivery or by constructive delivery
through attestation of ownership, subject to such rules as the Administrator may prescribe. 

  
 Page 4

 (4) Maximum Term. Stock Options and SARs will
have a maximum term not to exceed ten (10) years from the date of grant (or five (5) years from the date of grant in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent shareholder described in Section 6(b)(2) above); provided, however, that,
if a Participant still holding an outstanding but unexercised NSO or SAR ten (10) years from the date of grant (or, in the case of an NSO or SAR with a maximum term of less than ten (10) years, such maximum term) is prohibited by
applicable law or a written policy of the Company applicable to similarly situated employees from engaging in any open-market sales of Stock, the maximum term of such Award will instead be deemed to expire on the thirtieth (30th) day following the date the Participant is no longer prohibited
from engaging in such open market sales. 
 7. EFFECT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS 

(a) Mergers, etc. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, the following provisions will apply in the event of a Covered
Transaction: 
 (1) Assumption or Substitution. If the Covered Transaction is one in which there is
an acquiring or surviving entity, the Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide (i) for the assumption or continuation of some or all outstanding Awards or any portion thereof or (ii) for the grant of new awards
in substitution therefor by the acquiror or survivor or an affiliate of the acquiror or survivor. 
 (2)
Cash-Out of Awards. With respect to any Award not assumed or substituted pursuant to Section 7 (a)(1) above, the Administrator shall, subject to Section 7(a)(5) below, provide for payment (a “cash-out”) equal in the case
of each affected Award or portion thereof to the excess, if any, of (A) the fair market value of one share of Stock (as determined by the Administrator in its reasonable discretion) times the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award or
such portion, over (B) the aggregate exercise or purchase price, if any, under the Award or such portion (in the case of an SAR, the aggregate base value above which appreciation is measured), in each case on such payment terms (which need not
be the same as the terms of payment to holders of Stock) and other terms, and subject to such conditions, as the Administrator determines. 
 (3) Acceleration of Certain Awards. Subject to Section 7(a)(5) below, the Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide that each Award requiring exercise will become
exercisable, in full or in part and/or that the delivery of any shares of Stock remaining deliverable under each outstanding Award of Stock Units (including Restricted Stock Units and Performance Awards to the extent consisting of Stock Units) will
be accelerated in full or in part, in each case on a basis that gives the holder of the Award a reasonable opportunity, as determined by the Administrator, following exercise of the Award or the delivery of the shares, as the case may be, to
participate as a stockholder in the Covered Transaction. 
 (4) Termination of Awards Upon Consummation of
Covered Transaction. Each Award will terminate upon consummation of the Covered Transaction, other than the following: (i) Awards assumed pursuant to Section 7(a)(1) above; and (ii) outstanding shares of Restricted Stock (which
will be treated in the same manner as other shares of Stock, subject to Section 7(a)(5) below). 
 (5)
Additional Limitations. Any share of Stock and any cash or other property delivered pursuant to Section 7(a)(2) or Section 7(a)(3) above with respect to an Award may, in the discretion of the Administrator, contain such
restrictions, if any, as the Administrator deems appropriate to reflect any performance or other vesting conditions to which the Award was subject and that did not lapse (and were not satisfied) in connection with the Covered Transaction. For
purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a cash-out under Section 7(a)(2) above or acceleration under Section 7(a)(3) above will not, in and of itself, be treated as the lapsing (or satisfaction) of a performance or other vesting
condition. In the case of Restricted Stock that does not vest in connection with the Covered Transaction, the Administrator may require that any amounts delivered, exchanged or otherwise paid in respect of such Stock in connection with the Covered
Transaction be placed in escrow or otherwise made subject to such restrictions as the Administrator deems appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. 

  
 Page 5

 (b) Changes in and Distributions With Respect to Stock. 

(1) Basic Adjustment Provisions. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares (including
a reverse stock split), recapitalization or other change in the Company’s capital structure that constitutes an equity restructuring within the meaning of FASB ASC 718, the Administrator will make appropriate adjustments to the maximum number
of shares specified in Section 4(a) that may be delivered under the Plan and to the maximum share limits described in Section 4(c), and will also make appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares of stock or securities subject
to Awards then outstanding or subsequently granted, any exercise prices relating to Awards and any other provision of Awards affected by such change. 
 (2) Certain Other Adjustments. The Administrator may also make adjustments of the type described in Section 7(b)(1) above to take into account distributions to stockholders other than those
provided for in Section 7(a) and 7(b)(1), or any other event, if the Administrator determines that adjustments are appropriate to avoid distortion in the operation of the Plan, having due regard for the qualification of ISOs under
Section 422, the requirements of Section 409A, and for the performance-based compensation rules of Section 162(m), where applicable. 
 (3) Continuing Application of Plan Terms. References in the Plan to shares of Stock will be construed to include any stock or securities resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this
Section 7. 
 8. LEGAL CONDITIONS ON DELIVERY OF STOCK 
 The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan or to remove any restriction from shares of Stock previously delivered under the Plan until: (i) the Company is
satisfied that all legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been addressed and resolved; (ii) if the outstanding Stock is at the time of delivery listed on any stock exchange or national market system, the
shares to be delivered have been listed or authorized to be listed on such exchange or system upon official notice of issuance; and (iii) all conditions of the Award have been satisfied or waived. The Company may require, as a condition to
exercise of the Award, such representations or agreements as counsel for the Company may consider appropriate to avoid violation of the Securities Act of 1933 or any applicable state or non-U.S. securities law. Any Stock required to be issued to
Participants under the Plan will be evidenced in such manner as the Administrator may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration or delivery of stock certificates. In the event that the Administrator determines that Stock certificates will
be issued to Participants under the Plan, the Administrator may require that certificates evidencing Stock issued under the Plan bear an appropriate legend reflecting any restriction on transfer applicable to such Stock, and the Company may hold the
certificates pending lapse of the applicable restrictions. 
 9. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 

The Administrator may at any time or times amend the Plan or any outstanding Award for any purpose which may at the time be permitted by
law, and may at any time terminate the Plan as to any future grants of Awards; provided, that except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan the Administrator may not, without the Participant’s consent, alter the terms of an Award so as to
affect materially and adversely the Participant’s rights under the Award, unless the Administrator expressly reserved the right to do so at the time the Award was granted. Any amendments to the Plan will be conditioned upon stockholder approval
only to the extent, if any, such approval is required by law (including the Code and applicable stock exchange requirements), as determined by the Administrator. 
  

	10.	OTHER COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS 

The existence of the Plan or the grant of any Award will not in any way affect the Company’s right to award a person bonuses or other
compensation in addition to Awards under the Plan. 

  
 Page 6

	11.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 (a) Waiver of
Jury Trial. By accepting an Award under the Plan, each Participant waives any right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim concerning any rights under the Plan and any Award, or under any amendment, waiver, consent,
instrument, document or other agreement delivered or which in the future may be delivered in connection therewith, and agrees that any such action, proceedings or counterclaim will be tried before a court and not before a jury. By accepting an Award
under the Plan, each Participant certifies that no officer, representative, or attorney of the Company has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Company would not, in the event of any action, proceeding or counterclaim, seek to enforce the
foregoing waivers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, nothing herein is to be construed as limiting the ability of the Company and a Participant to agree to submit disputes arising under the terms of the Plan or any Award made
hereunder to binding arbitration or as limiting the ability of the Company to require any eligible individual to agree to submit such disputes to binding arbitration as a condition of receiving an Award hereunder. 

(b) Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, neither the Company, nor any Affiliate, nor the
Administrator, nor any person acting on behalf of the Company, any Affiliate, or the Administrator, will be liable to any Participant or to the estate or beneficiary of any Participant or to any other holder of an Award by reason of any acceleration
of income, or any additional tax (including any interest and penalties), asserted by reason of the failure of an Award to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 or Section 409A or by reason of Section 4999 of the Code, or otherwise
asserted with respect to the Award; provided, that nothing in this Section 11(b) will limit the ability of the Administrator or the Company, in its discretion, to provide by separate express written agreement with a Participant for a gross-up
payment or other payment in connection with any such acceleration of income or additional tax. 
  

	12.	ESTABLISHMENT OF SUB-PLANS 

 The
Administrator may from time to time establish one or more sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable blue sky, securities or tax laws of various jurisdictions. The Administrator will establish such sub-plans by adopting
supplements to the Plan setting forth (i) such limitations on the Administrator’s discretion under the Plan as it deems necessary or desirable and (ii) such additional terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan as
it deems necessary or desirable. All supplements so established will be deemed to be part of the Plan, but each supplement will apply only to Participants within the affected jurisdiction (as determined by the Administrator). 

 

	13.	GOVERNING LAW 

 (a) Certain
Requirements of Corporate Law. Awards will be granted and administered consistent with the requirements of applicable Delaware law relating to the issuance of stock and the consideration to be received therefor, and with the applicable
requirements of the stock exchanges or other trading systems on which the Stock is listed or entered for trading, in each case as determined by the Administrator. 
 (b) Other Matters. Except as otherwise provided by the express terms of an Award Agreement, under a sub-plan described in Section 12 or as provided in Section 13(a) above, the provisions
of the Plan and of Awards under the Plan and all claims or disputes arising out of our based upon the Plan or any Award under the Plan or relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof will be governed by and construed in accordance with the
domestic substantive laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule that would cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. 

(c) Jurisdiction. By accepting an Award, each Participant will be deemed (i) to have submitted irrevocably and
unconditionally to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located within the geographic boundaries of the Tennessee Counties of Williamson or Davidson for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the
Plan or any Award; (ii) to agree not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the Plan or an Award, except in the federal and state courts located within the geographic boundaries of the Tennessee Counties
of Williamson or Davidson; and (iii) to waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion as a defense or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named
courts that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that the Plan or an Award or the
subject matter thereof may not be enforced in or by such court.

414(b) and 414(c) of the Code shall be applied by substituting “at least 50%” for “at least 80%” under Section 1563(a)(1), (2) and (3) of the Code and Treas. Regs. §1.414(c)-2; provided, that to the extent permitted under
Section 409A, “at least 20%” shall be used in lieu of “at least 50%”; and further provided, that the lower ownership threshold described in this definition (50% or 20% as the case may be) shall apply only if the same
definition of affiliation is used consistently with respect to all compensatory stock options or stock awards (whether under the Plan or another plan). The Company may at any time by amendment provide that different ownership thresholds (consistent

be deemed to continue, unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, so long as the Participant is employed by, or otherwise is providing services in a capacity described in Section 5 to the Company or an Affiliate. Except as expressly
provided in an Award Agreement or otherwise in a writing executed by the Company, a provision in a separation agreement requiring a former Employee to provide consulting services to the Company shall not cause the former Employee to be treated as
continuing in Employment for purposes of the Plan. If a Participant’s employment or other service relationship is with an Affiliate and that entity ceases to be an Affiliate, the Participant’s Employment will be deemed to have terminated
when the entity ceases to be an Affiliate unless the Participant transfers Employment to the Company or its remaining Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the definition of “Affiliate” above, in construing the provisions of any
Award relating to the payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (subject to Section 409A) upon a termination or cessation of Employment, references to termination or cessation of employment, separation from service,
retirement or similar or correlative terms will be construed to require a “separation from service” (as that term is defined in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations) from the Company and from all other corporations and
trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single “service recipient” with the Company under Section 1.409A-1(h)(3) of the Treasury Regulations. The Company may, but need not, elect in writing, subject to the applicable
limitations under Section 409A, any of the special elective rules prescribed in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations for purposes of determining whether a “separation from service” has occurred. Any such written
election will be deemed a part of the Plan. 
 “ISO”: A Stock Option intended to be an “incentive stock
option” within the meaning of Section 422. Each Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan will be treated as providing by its terms that it is to be an NSO unless, as of the date of grant, it is expressly designated as an ISO. 

“NSO”: A Stock Option that is not intended to be an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422.

 “Participant”: A person who is granted an Award under the Plan.

 “Performance Award”: An Award subject to Performance Criteria. The Administrator
in its discretion may grant Performance Awards that are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m) and Performance Awards that are not intended so to qualify. 

“Performance Criteria”: Specified criteria, other than the mere continuation of Employment or the mere passage of time, the
satisfaction of which is a condition for the grant, exercisability, vesting or full enjoyment of an Award. For purposes of Awards that are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), a Performance
Criterion will mean an objectively determinable measure of performance relating to any or any combination of the following (measured either absolutely or by reference to an index or indices and determined either on a consolidated basis or, as the
context permits, on a divisional, subsidiary, line of business, project or geographical basis or in combinations thereof): sales; revenues; assets; expenses; profits; earnings before or after deduction for all or any portion of interest, taxes,
depreciation, or amortization, whether or not on a continuing operations or an aggregate or per share basis; return on equity, investment, capital or assets; one or more operating ratios; borrowing levels, leverage ratios or credit rating; market
share; capital expenditures; cash flow; cash management; stock price; stockholder return; sales of particular products or services; customer acquisition or retention; acquisitions and divestitures (in whole or in part); joint ventures and strategic
alliances; spin-offs, split-ups and the like; reorganizations; recapitalizations, restructurings, financings (issuance of debt or equity) or refinancing; product launches; achievement of specified objectives or milestones relating to product
development including the attainment of specific regulatory approvals, the initiation or completion of enrollment in clinical or pre-clinical studies and the submission of specific regulatory filings; or achievement of specified objectives relating
to regulatory compliance or corporate infrastructure including staffing, facilities, distribution, manufacturing and the implementation of specific systems and procedures. A Performance Criterion and any targets with respect thereto determined by
the Administrator need not be based upon an increase, a positive or improved result or avoidance of loss. To the extent consistent with the requirements for satisfying the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), the
Administrator may provide in the case of any Award intended to qualify for such exception that one or more of the Performance Criteria applicable to such Award will be adjusted in an objectively determinable manner to reflect events (for example,
but without limitation, acquisitions or dispositions) occurring during the performance period that affect the applicable Performance Criterion or Criteria. 
 “Plan”: The BioMimetic Therapeutics, Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan as from time to time amended and in effect. 
 “Restricted Stock”: Stock subject to restrictions requiring that it be redelivered or offered for sale to the Company if specified conditions are not satisfied.

 Mr. Shane V Robison 
 Dear Shane: 
 On behalf of Fusion-io, Inc. (the “Company”, “Fusion-io” or “we”), we are pleased to offer you the position of Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman of the Board of
Directors (the “Board”) at Fusion-io, which is a full-time, exempt position, reporting to the Board of Directors. Your appointments are subject to approval by the Board and your compensation package as outlined herein is subject to
approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”). For purposes of this letter, your first day of work at Fusion-io will be considered your “Employment Start Date.” Your Employment Start Date will
be May 7, 2013. 
 Base Salary. Your starting annual base salary will be $62,500 per month ($750,000 annually), less applicable
taxes, deductions and withholdings, paid in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures and subject to annual review. 

Incentive Compensation. You also will be eligible to participate in the annual Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (“EIP”), with a
target incentive of 100% of your annual base salary (the “Target Award”), pro-rated based on the period of time you are employed at Fusion-io during the relevant Company fiscal year, less applicable taxes, deductions, and withholdings.
Target incentives do not constitute a promise of payment. To qualify for the EIP incentive bonus, you must remain employed with the Company through the date that the incentive bonus is paid (as specified in the EIP). Your actual EIP payout will
depend on the Company’s financial performance and, to the extent applicable, the Compensation Committee’s assessment of your individual performance, and any EIP payout is subject to, and governed by, the terms and requirements of the EIP
document. EIP bonuses are usually paid in September of the year after the Company’s fiscal year for which they are earned. 

Starting Bonus. You will be eligible to receive a one-time starting bonus in the amount of $750,000, to be paid to you in a lump sum, less
applicable taxes, deductions and withholdings, within thirty (30) days of your Employment Start Date. If, within the first twelve (12) months of your employment, the Company terminates your employment with the Company for Cause (as defined
in the Involuntary Termination Agreement) or you resign from such employment for any reason, you will be required to repay to the Company the full amount of the starting bonus, including any amounts withheld for taxes or other deductions. In the
event the Company terminates your employment with the Company other than for Cause or your employment terminates with the Company as a result of your death or disability, at any time, you will not be required to repay any portion of the starting
bonus to the Company. 

 Initial Equity Awards. Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, as a senior leader of
Fusion-io, in connection with your hiring, you will be entitled to receive the following equity awards (“Initial Equity Awards”) under the Fusion-io 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”): 

 

	 	1.	Restricted Stock Unit Award. A restricted stock unit award covering 323,741 shares of common stock of the Company (the “RSU Award”). The RSU Award will
be settled in shares of common stock of the Company, and it shall be subject to the following four (4) year vesting schedule: twenty-five percent (25%) of the total units subject to the RSU Award will vest on May 15, 2014; and an
additional six and one-quarter percent (6.25%) of the total number of units subject to the RSU Award will vest at the end of each three (3) month period thereafter until the RSU Award is fully vested. 

 

	 	2.	Stock Option Award. An option to purchase 607,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Option Award”). The per share exercise price of the
Option Award will be equal to the fair market value of one share of common stock of the Company on the effective date of the grant of the Option Award, as determined by the Committee in accordance with the terms of the Equity Plan and the
Company’s Equity Granting Guidelines established by our Board of Directors and the Committee. The Option Award shall be subject to the following four (4) year vesting schedule: twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of shares
subject to the Option Award shall become vested on May 7, 2014, and the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) of the total number of shares subject to the Option Award shall vest in thirty-six (36) substantially equal monthly
installments thereafter (on the seventh (7th) day of the month). 

 In accordance with the Company’s Equity Granting
Guidelines, if the Initial Equity Awards are approved when there is no trading blackout period in effect under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, such Initial Grant will become effective on the date it is approved, but if the Initial Equity
Awards are approved during a trading blackout period under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, they shall become effective on the last trading day of the month in which they are approved. All vesting of the Initial Equity Awards shall be
subject to your continued employment with the Company on the applicable vesting dates, subject to any vesting acceleration provisions contained in the Involuntary Termination Agreement (as defined below). The Initial Equity Awards shall be made
pursuant to the Equity Plan and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan and the applicable forms of agreement authorized for use thereunder. 
 Subsequent Equity Awards. Commencing in the Company’s 2014 fiscal year, during your employment with the Company, you will be eligible to be granted annual equity awards under the Equity Plan
(“Annual Grants”). The actual grant date value of all such Annual Grants made during your employment with Fusion-io shall be determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee after taking into account the Company’s and your
performance and other relevant factors. The size and other terms and conditions of your 2014 and future Annual Grants (including, without limitation, the form of award(s), vesting schedule, performance objectives, restrictive provisions, etc.)
granted to you shall be determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, subject to the Company-approved equity award guidelines as then in effect. All Annual Grants shall be made pursuant to the Equity Plan and shall be subject to
the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan and the applicable form of agreement authorized for use under the Equity Plan. 
 Benefits.
You will be entitled to participate in Fusion-io’s employee benefit plans, including our health insurance and 401(k) plans, which are generally available on a group basis to the Company’s senior executive officers. Fusion-io reserves the
right to change its benefits at any time. 
 The Company will reimburse you for reasonable legal fees incurred in connection with negotiating
and reviewing this letter up to a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) (based on your attorney’s normal charges and upon providing Fusion-io with documentation of the charges within thirty (30) days of the date you incur the charges).
This will be a taxable benefit to you and will be reimbursed to you within thirty (30) days following the date you submit the appropriate documentation.

 You will be expected to travel in connection with your employment. Fusion-io will reimburse you for
reasonable business expenses incurred in connection with your employment, upon presentation of appropriate documentation in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies and you will be eligible to participate in the travel
policy established by the Company generally for its senior management. In addition, during the term of your employment, Fusion-io will reimburse you for the reasonable cost of airfare for your spouse for traveling between California and Utah. You
understand and agree that these amounts will be taxable compensation to you and will be subject to any applicable tax reporting and withholding. 
 Involuntary Termination Severance Agreement. We will enter into an involuntary termination severance agreement with you in substantially the form previously approved by the Board (the
“Involuntary Termination Agreement”), which agreement shall not become effective unless and until it is signed and delivered by both you and an authorized signatory of the Company. 

Compensation Recovery. All bonuses or other cash-based incentive compensation paid to you are subject to Fusion-io’s compensation recovery
policies as in effect from time to time, including any established under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. 

Paid-Time Off. You will accrue vacation at a rate of twenty (20) days (up to the maximum vacation accrual cap for others accruing at that
same rate as specified in the Company’s vacation policy). Such vacation shall be scheduled and taken at the mutual convenience of you and the Company. In addition, Fusion-io currently provides eligible employees with designated company paid
holidays each year. 
 At-Will Employment, Proprietary Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration Agreement; No Conflict with Prior
Agreements. As an employee of Fusion-io, it is likely that you will become knowledgeable about confidential and/or proprietary information related to the operations, products and services of Fusion-io and its clients. Similarly, you may have

continuing contractual obligations that you may have with your former employers. By signing this offer letter, you represent that your employment with Fusion-io shall not breach any agreement you have with any third party.

agree to execute the “Fusion-io Policies, Procedures and Conditions of Employment” and return it to Fusion-io on or prior to your Employment Start Date. 
 Obligations. During your employment, you shall devote your full business efforts and time to Fusion-io. This obligation, however, shall not preclude you from engaging in appropriate civic,
charitable or religious activities or, with the consent of the Board, from serving on the boards of directors of companies that are not competitors to Fusion-io, as long as the activities do not materially interfere or conflict with your
responsibilities to or your ability to perform your duties of employment at Fusion-io. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, you shall continue to be permitted to serve on the board of directors of Altera Corporation and serve on the
advisory board of Lumidigm, Inc. Any outside activities must be in compliance with and approved if required by “Fusion-io Policies, Procedures and Conditions of Employment.”

 Non-competition. In addition to the obligations specified in the Proprietary Agreement, you agree
that, during your employment with Fusion-io you will not engage in, or have any direct or indirect interest in any person, firm, corporation or business (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent, security holder, creditor, consultant,
partner or otherwise) that is competitive with the business of Fusion-io. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, you may own not more than 1% of the securities of any company whose securities are publicly traded. 

Employment At-Will. Please understand that this letter does not constitute a contract of employment for any specific period of time, but will
create an employment at-will relationship that may be terminated at any time by you or Fusion-io, with or without cause and with or without advance notice. The at-will nature of the employment relationship may not be modified or amended except by
written agreement signed by Fusion-io’s the Chairman of the Compensation Committee and you. Upon a termination of your employment for any reason, unless otherwise requested by the Board, you will be deemed to have resigned as of the date of
such termination as a director and officer of Fusion-io and its affiliates and subsidiaries and as a fiduciary of any of its or their benefit plans, and you agree to promptly execute and deliver upon such termination any document reasonably required
by Fusion-io to evidence the foregoing. 
 Entire Agreement. This offer letter and the referenced documents and agreements constitute the
entire agreement between you and Fusion-io with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous oral or written representations, understandings, agreements or communications between you and Fusion-io
concerning those subject matters. 
 Eligibility to Work in the United States. In order for Fusion-io to comply with United States law,
we ask that on your Employment Start Date you bring to Fusion-io appropriate documentation to verify your authorization to work in the United States. Fusion-io may not employ anyone who cannot provide documentation showing that they are legally
