FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

     THIS FIRST AMENDMENT, dated as of November 30, 2007, amends and modifies a certain Credit
Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2007 (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”), among VARISTAR
CORPORATION, a Minnesota corporation (the “Borrower”), U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Agent (in
such capacity, the “Agent”), and the Banks, as defined therein. Terms not otherwise expressly
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks agree that the Credit Agreement is
amended as follows.

ARTICLE I — AMENDMENT TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT

     1.1 Other Agreements. Section 9.5 is amended to read as follows:

     “Section 9.5 Other Agreements. Enter into any agreement, bond, note or other
instrument with or for the benefit of any Person other than the Banks which would: (a) be
violated or breached by the Borrower’s performance of its obligations under the Loan
Documents, or (b) prohibit any Subsidiary of the Borrower from paying dividends or
distributions on, or redeeming, acquiring or retiring for value, any shares of stock or
other ownership interest that the Borrower holds in such Subsidiary.”

For convenience of reference, the change to such Section constitutes deletion of the wording
formerly in subsection (a) that had read:

”(a) prohibit the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary from granting, or otherwise limit the
ability of the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary to grant, to the Banks any Lien on any
assets or properties of the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary;”

     1.2 Indebtedness. Section 9.8 is amended by deleting the period at the end of
subsection (h), adding “; and” and adding new subsection (i), which shall read as follows:

”(i) Indebtedness consisting of guaranties expressly permitted by Section 9.10.”

     1.3 Construction. All references in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”,
“herein” and similar references shall be deemed to refer to the Credit Agreement as amended by this
Amendment.

ARTICLE II — REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     To induce the Agent and the Banks to enter into this Amendment and to make and maintain the
Loans under the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, the Borrower hereby warrants and represents to
the Agent and the Banks that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Amendment, and to
perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and

 

 

that this Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Borrower, enforceable
in accordance with its terms.

ARTICLE III — CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

     This Amendment shall become effective on the date first set forth above, provided, however,
that the effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following
conditions precedent:

     3.1 Warranties. Before and after giving effect to this Amendment, the representations
and warranties in Article VII of the Credit Agreement shall be true and correct as though
made on the date hereof, except for changes that are permitted by the terms of the Credit
Agreement. The execution by the Borrower of this Amendment shall be deemed a representation that
the Borrower has complied with the foregoing condition.

     3.2 Defaults. Before and after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default and no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Credit Agreement. The execution
by the Borrower of this Amendment shall be deemed a representation that the Borrower has complied
with the foregoing condition.

     3.3 Documents and Fee. The Borrower, the Agent and the Required Bank shall have
executed and delivered this Amendment and the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent a fee of
$50,000, which shall be distributed by the Agent to the Banks on a ratable basis, in accordance
with their respective Percentages.

     ARTICLE IV — GENERAL

     4.1 Expenses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent upon demand for all
reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by this
Agent in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Amendment and any other document
required to be furnished herewith.

     4.2 Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in as many counterparts as may be
deemed necessary or convenient, and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each
of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original but all such counterparts shall constitute
but one and the same instrument.

     4.3 Severability. Any provision of this Amendment which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provisions in any other jurisdiction.

     4.4 Law. This Amendment shall be a contract made under the laws of the State of
Minnesota, which laws shall govern all the rights and duties hereunder.

2

 

     4.5 Successors; Enforceability. This Amendment shall be binding upon the Borrower,
and Agent and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit
of the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks and the successors and assigns of the Agent and the Banks.
Except as hereby amended, the Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby
ratified and confirmed in all respects.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be executed at
Minneapolis, Minnesota by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first
written above.

TYCO HEALTHCARE GROUP LP

UNI-PATCH DIVISION

SUPPLY AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT entered into as of the 6th day of December, 2007 (the “Effective Date”)

     WHEREAS, Purchaser possesses certain technologies with respect to surface electrodes for
Urgent-PC systems; and

     WHEREAS, Purchaser has requested Supplier’s services and expertise in the manufacture of the
Products (as defined below); and

     WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase from Supplier, and Supplier desires to manufacture and
sell to Purchaser, the Products in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the
parties mutually agree as follows:

1. DEFINITION OF TERMS

     1.1 “Contract Year” shall mean, with respect to the first Contract Year, that time
period that begins with the Effective Date of the Agreement and concludes on March 31, 2009, and,
with respect to the second Contract Year, that time period that begins on April 1, 2009 and
concludes on March 31, 2010.

hereto, which are labeled with Purchaser’s trademarks and/or trade names.

attached hereto.

2. TERM OF AGREEMENT

     This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall continue in effect for until

3. SALE AND PURCHASE OF THE PRODUCTS

     3.1 Supplier agrees to manufacture and sell the Products to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to
purchase its entire requirements of the Products from Supplier, during the Term in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Purchaser shall not purchase Products, or any
substantially similar products, from any source other than Supplier during the Term of this
Agreement, provided that Supplier remains in compliance with its obligations hereunder.

     3.2 Supplier shall not make any product or process changes which would cause a Product to
deviate from the Specifications without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Purchaser may
request changes to the Specifications. Supplier will consider such requests in good faith, and use
reasonable efforts to accommodate such requests, provided that Purchaser agrees to reimburse
Supplier for any additional costs and expenses to implement such Specification change. If any
change to the Specifications is required in order to comply with any applicable law, rule or
regulation or in response to an order by the Food and Drug Administration or other applicable
government entity, Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement such changes as
soon as possible; provided, that Purchaser agrees to reimburse Supplier for any additional costs
and expense to implement such Specification change.

     3.3 If applicable, Purchaser shall provide, at its sole cost and expense, all artwork (in
camera-ready condition) (the “Artwork”) for Supplier to produce printing plates and dies to
be used in the packaging and labeling of the Products. Purchaser shall have all right, title and
interest to the Artwork. Purchaser shall bear any and all costs associated with any changes
requested by Purchaser to the packaging and labeling of the Products.

     3.4 On a monthly basis, Purchaser shall deliver to Supplier a non-binding, rolling twelve (12)
month forecast of Purchaser’s anticipated purchases hereunder, the first three months of which
shall be incorporated into a firm binding purchase order for Products. Purchaser’s initial
forecast for Contract Year One of the Term is set forth on Exhibit C. Purchaser shall
submit its orders for Products on purchase order forms covering a three-month period specifying (i)
the number of units of each of the Products to be purchased, (ii) the destination to which the
Products are to be shipped, and (iii) the requested shipment dates, which shall not be less than
the amount of time set forth on Exhibit A. Delivery shall not be required in respect of
any purchase order received by Supplier in amounts which exceed the three-month binding portion of
forecasts provided by Purchaser to Supplier, or which call for a lead time of less than the amount
of time set forth on Exhibit A. Except for the information specified in the preceding
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), any terms printed on Purchaser’s purchase order forms shall be of no
force and effect, and the terms of such purchase and sale shall be governed solely by this
Agreement. Purchaser may not cancel or modify any purchase order without the written consent of
Supplier.

     3.5 Supplier shall not use Purchaser’s Confidential Information (which it has an obligation to
keep confidential in accordance with Section 6.1) or Purchaser’s Intellectual Property to produce
products for itself or for other customers at any time, whether during or after

 

 

the expiration or termination of this Agreement, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.5
below.

4. PRICE AND PAYMENT/SHIPMENT TERMS; INSURANCE; REBATE

     4.1 The price of Products hereunder is set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.
Supplier shall hold firm the prices set forth on Exhibit A for the Term of this Agreement,
except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.1. If the Supplier’s aggregate costs of raw
materials used to manufacture any of the Products increase or decrease by more than ten percent
(10%) in any six (6) month period during the Term of this Agreement, the parties agree to discuss
whether there should be an adjustment to the price of affected Products and the effective date of
any price change. In the event of a price increase or price decrease hereunder (each a “New
Price”), such New Price shall remain in full force until such time as the parties agree to any
further price adjustment in accordance with this Section 4.1.

     4.2 Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, payment shall be made by Purchaser
separately for each shipment of Products. Payment terms for purchases hereunder shall be net 30.

     4.3 The Products sold to Purchaser shall be shipped F.O.B. Wabasha, MN, to the Purchaser’s
facility as designated on Exhibit A.

     4.4 Throughout the Term, each of Purchaser and Supplier shall carry Commercial General
Liability Insurance in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 Combined Single Limit, Bodily Injury and
Property Damage, naming the other party as an additional insured. Insurance to be maintained
pursuant to the provisions of this section shall provide for written notice to the additional
insured thirty (30) days in advance of any termination or cancellation of such insurance. Upon the
request of one party, the other party shall provide a certificate evidencing such insurance
coverage.

     4.5 For each Contract Year in which Purchaser’s purchases under this Agreement (net of
returns) equal or exceed at least those volumes of the specific Products all as set forth in the
Rebate section of Exhibit A, Supplier shall pay Purchaser a rebate as set forth therein.
Any rebate earned hereunder shall be paid to Purchaser within thirty (30) days of the end of the
Contract Year during which it was earned.

5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     5.1 Purchaser represents that it is the owner of all trade secrets, designs, ideas, formulas,
data, techniques, blueprints, sketches, records, notes, Artwork, trademarks and trade-names,
drawings, shop drawings, technology, information and other intellectual property, whether or not
protected by patents, that are provided by the Purchaser to the Supplier in order to manufacture,
label and package the Products (“Purchaser’s Intellectual Property”). The packaging and
labeling of the Products shall contain Purchaser’s trademarks and trade names in accordance with
the Specifications. Purchaser hereby grants to Supplier during the Term a license to use Purchaser’s Intellectual Property solely to the extent necessary to permit Supplier

 

 

to manufacture, label, package and supply Products to Purchaser in accordance with the
Specifications and the terms of this Agreement. Except as specifically provided in the previous
sentence, Supplier shall not obtain any rights in Purchaser’s Intellectual Property. Except as
specifically provided herein, neither party shall use in any way, the trademarks or trade names of
the other party unless the other party first provides its written consent, and will not do any act
which could in any way infringe upon or be in derogation of the validity of such other party’s
trademarks or trade names.

     5.2 Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Supplier from and against any damage,
cost or expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, arising out of any third
party claim that (i) any Product infringes on any valid U.S. patents, trademarks or copyrights, or
(ii) any trademarks or tradenames of Purchaser included on the labeling or packaging of the
Products infringes upon the trademarks or tradename of such third party. The indemnification
obligations set forth in this paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of this
Agreement.

     5.3 Purchaser shall own full right, title and interest in all inventions, improvements and/or
changes to the Products which are developed with or without the input of the Purchaser during the
Term, whether patentable or not, and whether fully completed or not (the “Product
Improvements”). Supplier agrees to promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver all applications,
oaths, declarations and further documents as Purchaser deems necessary or desirable to evidence
Purchaser’s title to such Product Improvements, in each case at the expense of Purchaser. Supplier
shall own full right, title and interest in all inventions, improvements, know-how and/or changes
to the process by which the Products are manufactured which are developed during the Term, whether
patentable or not, and whether fully completed or not (the “Process Improvements”).
Purchaser agrees to promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver all applications, oaths, declarations
and further documents as Supplier deems necessary or desirable to evidence Supplier’s title to such
Process Improvements, in each case at the expense of Supplier.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY.

     6.1 Any information given by one party to another or acquired by a party in the performance of
its obligations hereunder or otherwise relating to the Products or the Specifications or the
intellectual property rights associated therewith which is designated as confidential at the time
of disclosure or which a reasonable party receiving such information would assume was expected to
be kept confidential (“Confidential Information”) shall be maintained in confidence by the
receiving party and shall not be used or disclosed to a third party except with the disclosing
party’s prior written consent. The confidentiality obligations in this Section shall not apply to
Confidential Information which (i) becomes public other than through the receiving party, (ii) is
already known to the receiving party as evidenced by its written records, (iii) becomes known by
the receiving party in the future from another source which is under no obligation of
confidentiality to the disclosing party, or (iv) is subsequently developed by the receiving party
in a manner which it can establish was independent of the disclosure hereunder.

 

 

     6.2 Except as required by law (i.e., public company disclosure requirements), (i) each party
shall keep confidential, and not disclose to any third party, the terms of this Agreement and (ii)
neither party hereto shall make, or permit any of their respective directors, officers, employees,
agents, advisors, affiliates or representatives to make any press release, public announcement or
other public disclosure with respect to the existence of this Agreement or the terms hereof without
the prior consent of the other party hereto. The sharing of Confidential Information between the
parties confers no rights on the receiving party to the ownership or use of any such information,
except for the right to use such information specifically in furtherance and during the Term of
this Agreement.

     6.3 Upon the request of a disclosing party, and in any event, upon expiration or termination
of this Agreement, the receiving party will return to the disclosing party all documents, materials
and other information containing Confidential Information and will confirm the destruction of all
copies of all Confidential Information otherwise extracted therefrom in the possession or control
of the receiving party.

     6.4 In the event of a breach of the provisions of this Section by the receiving party, or if
the disclosing party believes that the receiving party may so breach these provisions, the
disclosing party may seek injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent any
further or anticipated breach of these provisions. The parties agree that the state and federal
courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota shall have personal jurisdiction of the parties, and
are deemed to be convenient forums, for this purpose.

     6.5 The obligations of Supplier and Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years.

7. WARRANTIES

     7.1 Supplier warrants that the Products shall, at the time of shipment, conform to the
Specifications and be free from defects in material and workmanship.

     7.2 Written notice and an explanation of the circumstances of any claim that the Products are
not in conformance with Specifications or are defective in material or workmanship shall be given
promptly by Purchaser to Supplier. Purchaser shall not return any Product to Supplier without
first obtaining a returned goods authorization number from Supplier. Any returns of Product shall
reference such returned goods authorization number. Supplier shall replace any Product or Products
that do not conform to the warranties set forth above or, at Supplier’s discretion, refund or
credit to Purchaser that portion of the purchase price allocable to such Product or Products.

     7.3 Purchaser represents and warrants to Supplier that it will comply with all present and
future laws, rules and regulations relating to the sale of the Products. Purchaser shall be
responsible for securing any governmental or regulatory approvals, at its own expense, necessary to
be obtained by Purchaser for its sale or use of the Products.

 

 

8. TERMINATION

     8.1 Either party may terminate this Agreement as follows:

     (a) if the other party commits a material breach of any of the provisions of this
Agreement and does not cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written
notice thereof; or

     (b) immediately upon written notice to the other party in the event that proceedings in
bankruptcy or insolvency are instituted by or against the other party, or a receiver is
appointed, or if any substantial part of the assets of the other party is the object of
attachment, sequestration or other type of comparable proceeding, and such proceeding is not
vacated or terminated within sixty (60) days after its commencement or institution.

     8.2 Supplier may terminate this Agreement, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice, if

period.

obligations of the parties shall cease, except that the parties shall not be relieved of (i) their
respective obligations to pay monies due or which become due as of or subsequent to the date of
expiration or termination, and (ii) any other respective obligations under this Agreement which
specifically survive or are to be performed after the date of expiration or termination.

     8.4 Upon the termination of this Agreement under this Section 8, other than a termination by
Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.1 or an expiration of the Term under Section 2, Purchaser
shall have the obligation, at Supplier’s option, to purchase from Supplier any finished goods
inventory of Products not to exceed that number of Products equal to the ninety (90) day binding
portion (or with Purchaser’s written approval, a greater number of days) of Purchaser’s forecast
for Products at the time of termination.

9. INDEMNIFICATION

     9.1 Indemnification by Supplier. Supplier shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Purchaser, its affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors, officers, and employees and
their successors and assigns, from and against any claim, damage, cost or expense, including
reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, arising out of any third party claim for death,
injury or damage to property caused by Supplier’s failure to manufacture the Products in
conformance with the Specifications or any breach by Supplier of its obligations under this
Agreement, except to the extent such death, injury or damage directly results from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Purchaser. The indemnification obligations set forth in this
paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

     9.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. Purchaser shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Supplier, its affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors, officers, and employees and
their successors and assigns, from and against any claim, damage, cost or

 

 

expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, arising out of any third party claim for death,
injury or damage to property caused by or related to the use of the Products, except to the extent
such death, injury or damage was directly caused by Supplier’s failure to manufacture such Products
in conformance with the Specifications or any breach of Supplier of its obligations under this
Agreement. The indemnification obligations set forth in this paragraph shall survive the
expiration or termination of this Agreement.

     9.3 The indemnifying party’s obligations under this section are conditioned upon it receiving
(i) prompt written notice from the other party of the commencement of any such suit or proceeding
and (ii) full non-monetary assistance, information, cooperation and authority from the other party
with respect to the defense or settlement of the same. The indemnifying party shall not enter into
any settlement that imposes any liability or fault on the other party without that party’s prior
written consent.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

     10.1 Assignment. Neither party shall assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of this
Agreement in whole or in part, or any of its obligations hereunder, to a third party without the
prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that no such consent
shall be required in connection with the assignment of this Agreement to an affiliate of the
assigning party that has the capability to fulfill its obligations hereunder or to the purchaser of
all or substantially all of the assets of the assigning party to which this Agreement pertains.

     10.2 Force Majeure. If the performance of any obligation under this Agreement (other
than the payment of money) is prevented, restricted or interfered with by reason of war, civil
commotion, embargo, strike or any other act which is beyond the reasonable control of the party
affected, then the party so affected shall, upon giving written notice to the other party, be
excused from such performance to the extent of such prevention, restriction or interference;
provided, that the party so affected shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid and remove
such causes of nonperformance, and shall continue performance hereunder with reasonable dispatch
whenever such causes are removed. In the event that any force majeure event delays a party’s
performance for more than ninety (90) days following notice by such party pursuant to this
Agreement, the other party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to such
party.

     10.3 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER
PARTY FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER. IN ADDITION, THE WARRANTY
SET FORTH IN SECTION 7.1 IS THE SUPPLIER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY AS TO THE PRODUCTS,
EXTENDS ONLY TO PURCHASER, AND IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTY, ORAL OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY ORAL OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE.

 

 

     10.4 Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto and supersedes all previous negotiations, agreements and commitments
with respect thereto, and shall not be released, discharged, changed or modified in any manner
except by instruments signed by duly authorized representatives of each of the parties hereto. If
any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any party or circumstance shall be
declared void, illegal or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall be valid and
enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law. In such event, the parties shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision by a provision
that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, achieves the purposes intended under the invalid
or unenforceable provision.

     10.5 Applicable Law. This Agreement, and any claim or controversy relating hereto,
shall be governed by and interpreted exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of
Minnesota without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

     10.6 Waivers. No claim or right arising out of or relating to a breach of any
provision of this Agreement can be discharged in whole or in part by a waiver or renunciation of
the claim or right unless the waiver or renunciation is supported by consideration and is in
writing signed by the aggrieved party. Any failure by any party hereto to enforce at any time any
provision under this Agreement shall not be considered a waiver of that party’s right thereafter to
enforce each and every provision of this Agreement.

     10.7 Independent Contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed
to constitute Purchaser as a partner, employee or agent of Supplier, nor shall Purchaser hold
itself out as such. Neither party has the right or authority to incur, assume or create, in
writing or otherwise, any warranty, liability or other obligation of any kind, express or implied,
in the name or on behalf of other party, it being intended by Purchaser and Supplier that each
shall remain an independent contractor responsible for its own actions. Except as otherwise
provided herein, each party shall be responsible for its own expenses incidental to the performance
of its obligations hereunder.

     10.8 Notices. All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be sent to the respective parties at the following addresses, or to
such other addresses as may be designated by the parties in writing from time to time in accordance
with this Section, by registered or certified air mail, postage prepaid, or by overnight courier
service, service fee prepaid, or by telefax with a hard copy to follow via air mail or overnight

documenting the discount upon request of the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services or by the appropriate state agency.
