(as defined therein); and

Whereas, MAKO desires to engage Consultant, as a qualified and experienced orthopaedic
surgeon who has knowledge and insight related to orthopaedic medical devices and supplies, their
use and clinical application as well as the state of the industry, to provide services other than

to Consultant in writing and only to the extent that such policies and procedures are applicable to
Consultant in his independent contractor status.

Article 2: Compensation

2.1 Payment for Services: MAKO will pay Consultant for each Service requested by MAKO and
performed by Consultant as set forth in Attachment A. Services rendered by Consultant on behalf of
MAKO related to the Invention (as defined in the Development Agreement and, therefore, expressly
not applicable to Article 6 herein) shall be compensated exclusively as set forth in the

payable within thirty (30) days from the date MAKO receives from Consultant a satisfactorily
documented Services Report (as described in Section 2.3 below) detailing the Services performed.

2.2 No Payments in Excess of Legal Limits: The Parties acknowledge and agree that the
compensation paid under this Agreement is intended to be consistent with fair market value in an
arm’s length transaction and is not intended, directly or indirectly, to compensate Consultant for
ordering, using, or recommending MAKO’s products. If at any time during the Term, MAKO determines
reasonably, in good faith, and upon the advice of legal counsel that any payment made or to be made
under this Agreement is no longer consistent with fair market value or may be a violation of any
applicable law, regulation or industry guideline, then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a
compensation amount that the parties and their respective counsel agree represents fair market
value and is permitted under such law, regulation or industry guideline.

2.3 Services Reports: Consultant shall provide a written quarterly Services Report in the
form attached hereto as Attachment B which Attachment is fully incorporated herein by reference,
detailing the Services performed by Consultant during the preceding quarter within fifteen (15)
business days of the end of each calendar quarter. Each Services report shall include: a detailed
description of each Service performed; the date each Service was performed; and the number of hours
spent by Consultant performing the Service. MAKO has no obligation to pay compensation pursuant to
this Agreement until and unless Consultant has completed and MAKO has received a timely,
satisfactorily documented Services Report in sufficient detail for MAKO to verify Consultant’s
performance of the Services for which compensation is requested.

2.4 Business-Related Expenses: MAKO will reimburse Consultant for reasonable expenses of
travel, lodging, daily meals, and other necessary and reasonable business expenses incurred by
Consultant in the performance of the Services, provided that such expenses are:

(a) authorized by MAKO before Consultant incurred them;

(b) supported by original receipts or other supporting documentation; and

(c) submitted along with the Services Report describing the Services in connection with
which the business expenses are claimed.

All expenses for which Consultant requests reimbursement must be modest in light of the applicable
circumstances and consistent with all applicable laws, regulations and industry guidance.

2.5 Taxes, Fees, and Levies: The Parties acknowledge and agree that any compensation
received under this Agreement is gross of any taxes, fees, and levies of any nature whatsoever
which may

for any disputed Services.

2.4 Business-Related Expenses: MAKO will reimburse Consultant for reasonable expenses of

(c) submitted along with the Services Report describing the Services in connection with
which the business expenses are claimed.

All expenses for which Consultant requests reimbursement must be modest and consistent with all
applicable laws, regulations and industry guidance.
