transfer and delivery of the Purchased Assets, Buyer shall do the following:

Seller in readily available funds at the Closing pursuant to wire transfer
instructions provided by Seller to Buyer prior to the Closing Date the sum of
Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.8
hereof; and

 

(b)                                 Assume
the Assumed Liabilities (defined below in Section 1.3).

 

1.3                                 Assumption
of Liabilities.  Buyer agrees to
assume all obligations to be performed after the Closing under the Contracts
set forth on Schedule 1.1(b) hereto (the “Assumed Liabilities”),
including, but not limited to, rebate obligations and administrative fees, and
those open purchase orders listed on Schedule 1.1(b) and except for
said obligations under the Contracts and open purchase orders, Buyer expressly
does not, and shall not, assume or be deemed to assume, under this Agreement or
otherwise by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby, any of the
liabilities, obligations or commitments of Seller of any nature whatsoever,
whether relating to the Acquired Business or otherwise.

 

1.4                                 Assignment
of Contracts.  Seller and Buyer agree
to cooperate in securing any required third party consents to the assignment or
novation, as applicable, of the Contracts prior to the Closing or as soon

rights and obligations under the Contract, subject to further agreement of the
parties pursuant to the Transition Agreement (as defined below).

 

1.5                                 Collection
of Accounts Receivable.  Existing
accounts receivable relating to customers of the Acquired Business are not
being transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.  The parties, therefore, agree to cooperate in
the allocation of payments from customers of the Acquired Business received
after the Closing Date.  Seller shall
promptly remit to Buyer any payments received from such customers attributable
to sales of products occurring on or after the Closing Date, and Buyer shall
likewise remit promptly to Seller any payments received relating to sales of
products that occurred before the Closing Date. 
To the extent that payments received by either party do not specifically
reference a specific invoice that is being paid, such payments shall be applied
to the oldest invoice owed by such customer, whether to Seller or Buyer.  The parties agree to cooperate in the
collection of accounts receivable that are outstanding as of the date of
closing and shall, as appropriate, make their books and records available to
the other party so as to permit the monitoring of and compliance with this
provision.

 

1.6                                 Allocation
of Purchase Price.  Schedule 1.6
hereto sets forth the parties’ agreement on the allocation of the purchase
price under this Agreement among the Purchased Assets.  Each party agrees to follow such allocation
in all reports and returns filed with applicable taxing authorities.

 

1.7                                 Excluded
Assets.  Any asset of the Acquired
Business owned by Seller and Seller’s IP Affiliate not specifically enumerated
in Sections 1.1(a) – (f) shall be excluded from the Purchased Assets.

($671,004.33) relating to an estimate of the fair market value of rebate
obligations being assumed by Buyer to group purchasing organizations for
purchases by such organizations occurring prior to the Closing Date.

Representations
and Warranties

of
the Seller

 

The Seller represents and
warrants to the Buyer as follows:

 

2.1                                 Organization
and Good Standing.  The Seller is a
limited partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the State of Delaware.  The
Seller is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in every
jurisdiction in which the character of its business makes such qualification
necessary, except for where the failure to be so qualified would not have a
material adverse effect on the Seller or on its business, assets, properties, prospects,
financial condition or results of operations, all of which jurisdictions are
listed on Schedule 2.1 attached hereto. 
The Seller has all necessary power and authority, including all
necessary licenses and permits, to carry on its business as it is now being
conducted, and to own or lease and operate its properties and assets.

 

2.2                                 Authorization
and Approvals.  The Seller has all
requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder.  Seller’s IP
Affiliate has all requisite corporate power and authority to perform its
obligations hereunder.  This Agreement
has been duly executed and delivered by the Seller and constitutes the legal,
valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,
moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights and remedies generally; and except as enforcement may be limited by
general

principles of
equity.  This Agreement has been, or will
be prior to the Closing Date, duly and validly authorized by and approved by
all requisite action on the part of the Seller’s partners, and as to Seller’s
IP Affiliate, on the part of such company’s Board of Directors..  No further approvals or consents by, or
filings with, any federal, state, municipal, foreign or other court or
governmental or administrative body, agency or other third party is required in
connection with the execution and delivery by the Seller of this Agreement, or
the consummation by the Seller or Seller’s IP Affiliate of the transactions
contemplated hereby, except for those which, if not obtained, would not have a
material adverse impact on the ability of the Seller to carry on the Acquired
Business as currently conducted or the ability of the Seller to execute and
deliver this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

2.3                                 No
Conflicts.  Except as set forth on Schedule 2.3
attached hereto, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (a) violate any
provision of the charter or Bylaws or other organizational document of the
Seller, (b) violate, or be in conflict with, or constitute a default (or
other event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would
constitute a default) under, or give rise to any right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration under any of the terms, conditions or provisions
of any material lease, license, promissory note, contract, agreement, mortgage,
deed of trust or other instrument or document to which the Seller is a party or
by which the Seller or any of its or Seller’s IP Affiliate’s properties or
assets may be bound, (c) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, law,
statute, rule or regulation of any court or governmental authority
applicable to the Seller or any of its or Seller’s IP Affiliate’s properties or
assets or (d) give rise to a declaration or imposition of any claim, lien,
charge, security interest or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of
the assets of the Seller or Seller’s IP Affiliate.

 

2.4                                 Taxes.  The Seller has paid or caused to be paid
within the time and in the manner prescribed by law all Federal, state and
local taxes of any type, including without limitation, income, franchise, gross
receipts, sales or property taxes, payable or due from and owed by the Seller
for all periods ending on or prior to the date hereof except for taxes which
are accrued but not yet due and payable. 
The Seller has collected all sales, use and value added taxes required
to be collected, and has remitted, or will remit on a timely basis, such
amounts to the appropriate governmental authorities and has furnished properly
completed exemption certificates for all exempt transactions.  None of the assets of the Seller are subject
to any liens in respect of taxes (other than for current taxes not yet due and
payable).

 

2.5                                 Fixed
Assets. The fixed assets set forth on Schedule 1.1(a) hereto are
in good operating condition and repair, normal wear and tear excepted, and are
adequate for the uses to which they are being put.  The fixed assets on Schedule 1.1(a) hereto
constitute substantially all of the fixed assets actually used by Seller in the
conduct of the Acquired Business (excepting for computer hardware and software,
racking and certain warehouse equipment) and, except for such excluded assets,
constitute all of the fixed assets needed to conduct such business in the
manner in which Seller is currently conducting the business.  None of such fixed assets is in need of

agreements of the Seller, whether written or oral, formal or informal, relating
to the Acquired Business.  To the
knowledge of the Seller, all parties to such Contracts have fully performed all
obligations required to be performed on or prior to the date hereof, and no
event has occurred which would constitute a default (or any event which, with
the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default)
under any term or provision of any of the Contracts and thereby allow a party
thereto to terminate or claim damages therefor. 
Each of the Contracts is in full force and effect and is the legal,
valid and binding obligation of the Seller and, to the knowledge of the Seller,
of the other parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
as may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or
other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and
remedies generally and except as enforcement may be limited by general
principles of equity.  Except as set
forth in Schedule 1.1(b), the Seller is not a party to any Contract that
restricts Seller, or after the Closing Date Buyer, from carrying on the
Acquired Business or any part thereof, or from competing in any line of
business with any person, corporation or entity, except for the non-compete
covenant of Seller under this Agreement.

 

2.7                                 Inventory.  All inventory of the Acquired Business, as of
July 2, 2005, whether constituting finished goods, work in progress or raw
material, is shown on Schedule 1.1(d). 
All of such inventory is usable and saleable in the ordinary course of

Seller has good, valid and marketable title to all Purchased Assets, except
registered Intellectual Property as to which Seller’s IP Affiliate has good,
valid and marketable title.  Except as
set forth on Schedule 2.8, all such assets are free and clear of title
defects or objections, liens, claims, charges, pledges, security interests,
easements, title retention agreements or other encumbrances of any kind or
nature whatsoever, except for liens, taxes and assessments not yet due and
liens of landlords, warehousemen, mechanics and materialmen arising by law or
in the ordinary course of business that do not materially adversely affect the
Purchased Assets or the operation of the Acquired Business.

Statements. Seller has delivered to Buyer the following financial

the Seller nor Seller’s IP Affiliate has granted any license or right to use
any Intellectual Property to any other person.

 

(b)                                 Except as set forth on Schedule 2.10, the
Intellectual Property and other items of proprietary intellectual property
listed or described on Schedule 1.1(c) constitute all such
intellectual property used by Seller in the conduct of the Acquired Business
and there is no other intellectual property of Seller, Seller’s IP Affiliate
or, to Seller’s knowledge, of a third party required to conduct the Acquired
Business in the manner in which it is now conducted or proposed to be conducted

are no material agreements requiring the Seller to make payments or provide any

property rights of third parties in the Acquired Business other than licenses

2.11                           Licenses
and Permits.  Schedule 2.11
attached hereto contains a complete, current and correct list of all
governmental licenses, including but not limited to clearances and approvals,

contracts from the terms shown in the copies delivered to Buyer except as
described in Schedule 2.12.  Except
for the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Seller has received no
notice nor is in possession of any actual knowledge which might reasonably
indicate that any of the current customers, subcontractors or suppliers of the
Acquired Business intends to cease retaining, purchasing from, selling to or
dealing with the Seller in the manner in which such transactions have
previously occurred, nor has the Seller received any notice or is in possession
of any actual knowledge which might reasonably lead it to believe that any
current client, customer, subcontractor or supplier of the Acquired Business
intends to alter in any material respect the amount of such retention,
purchases or sales or the extent of dealings with the Seller or would alter in
any material respect any such retention, purchases, sales or dealings in the

jurisdiction over the Seller and its business, including without limitation all
such laws, regulations, ordinances and requirements relating to insurance,
environment, antitrust, consumer protection, labor and employment, zoning and
land use, immigration, health, and occupational safety,  except where the failure to be in compliance
would not have a material adverse effect on the Acquired Business.  The Seller has not received any written
notification of any asserted present or past failure by Seller to comply with
any laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders or other
requirements, the failure of which would have a material adverse effect on the
assets or operations of the Acquired Business.

 

2.14                           Litigation.

knowledge of the Seller, threatened action, suit, arbitration proceeding,
investigation or inquiry before any court or governmental or administrative
body or agency, or any private arbitration tribunal, against, relating to or
affecting the Acquired Business, or the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, nor to the best knowledge of the Seller, are there any facts or
circumstances which could reasonably lead to or provide the basis for any such
threatened action, suit, arbitration proceeding, investigation or inquiry.

 

(b)                                 There
is not in effect any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental or
administrative body or agency enjoining, barring, suspending, prohibiting or
otherwise limiting Seller or any officer, director or employee of Seller from
conducting or engaging in any aspect of the Acquired Business, or requiring
Seller or any officer, director or employee of Seller to take certain action
with respect to any aspect of the Acquired Business.

(c)                                  The
Seller is not in violation of or in default under any order, judgment, writ,
injunction or decree of any court or governmental or administrative body or
agency.

 

2.15                           Brokers
and Finders.  Other than Cleary
Oxford & Associates, Seller has not engaged or authorized any broker,
finder, investment banker or other third party to act on its behalf, directly
or indirectly, as a broker, finder, investment banker or in any other like
capacity in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby, nor has Seller consented to or acquiesced in anyone so acting.

 

2.16                           Product
Liability and Warranties.  Schedule 2.16
sets forth the policies of product liability insurance maintained by Seller and

limits, deductibles and term.  Except as
set forth on Schedule 2.16, each product of the Acquired Business
designed, manufactured, sold, or delivered by the Seller has been produced and
sold in conformity in all material respects with all applicable contractual
commitments and all express and implied warranties. Seller does not have any
knowledge of the existence or of any liability (and, to the knowledge of the
Seller, there is no basis for any present or future action, suit, proceeding,
hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim, or demand giving rise to any
liability) for replacement or repair thereof or other damages in connection
therewith.  No product or service of the
Acquired Business designed, manufactured, sold, or delivered by the Seller is
subject to any guaranty, warranty, or other indemnity beyond the applicable
standard terms and conditions of sale.

state of circumstances or facts relating to the Purchased Assets or the
Acquired Business which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect thereon;

 

(b)                                 any sale, lease, license or other

13

 

5.9                                 Non-compete
Covenant.

 

(a)                                  In
consideration of the purchase price paid by Buyer hereunder and the other
covenants and agreements contained herein, Seller hereby agrees, for a period
of five (5) years following the Closing Date, that neither it nor any
direct or indirect subsidiary, parent or other company or business entity
affiliated with Seller (the “Encore Group”), shall disclose any confidential
information or trade secrets of the Acquired Business.

 

(b)                                 In
addition, for a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete
Period”), Seller agrees that except as set forth in 5.9(c), neither it nor any
member of the Encore Group shall  engage,
directly or indirectly, in any business activity competitive with the Acquired
Business in the United States or anywhere else in the world.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding
the provisions of 5.9(b), excluded from the foregoing non-compete covenant are
the sale and distribution by members of the Encore Group of orthopedic soft
goods or related products manufactured or distributed by entities other than members
of the Encore Group which are competitive with the Acquired Business, (the “Excluded
Products”); provided, however, that the Encore Group shall not during the
Non-Compete Period, distribute, or seek to distribute, any such Excluded
Product through group purchasing organizations or through those third party
distributors identified on Schedule 5.9(c) attached hereto (the “Third
Party Distributors”) except in such cases as when the Excluded Products are
sold or offered to the group purchasing organizations or sold through the Third
Party Distributors for a non-acute care setting as part of a bundled group of
products where the anticipated sales volume of the Excluded Products to such
purchasers is expected to be no more than fifteen percent (15%) of the overall
value of the amounts to be sold in the bundled arrangement.

 

(d)                                 It
is specifically acknowledged that the product lines listed on Schedule 5.9(d) shall
be deemed to not be competitive with the Acquired Business.

 

(e)                                  Notwithstanding
the provisions hereof to the contrary, the parties acknowledge and agree that
the Encore Group shall not be precluded from (a) owning up to and
including five percent (5%) of the outstanding capital stock or other equity
interests of a publicly held entity which competes with the Acquired Business
or (b) owning an interest in excess of five percent (5%) of the
outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of any entity which
competes with the Acquired Business, but only if such interest is acquired (i) as
a creditor in bankruptcy or (ii) as part of the acquisition of another
business and Buyer consents to such acquisition or the Encore Group uses its
best efforts to immediately dispose of any such competing interest within six (6) months
from the date of such acquisition.

 

(f)                                    This
non-compete covenant and agreement shall be binding on Seller and its
successors and assigns. Seller’s obligations under this section 5.9 shall
survive the Closing and continue for the full duration of the five (5)-year
period mentioned above and shall not be subject to the limitations on liability
set forth in section 6.4 below.

 

5.10                           Other
Agreements.  Seller and Buyer agree,
with respect to Excluded Products that are currently manufactured by the
Acquired Business for distribution through other Encore Group sales

 

14

 

channels outside of the
Acquired Business, that during the Non-Compete Period the parties shall
consider in good faith the possibility of Buyer supplying products for the EMPI
or Chattanooga product lines, or other business operations of Seller, which
Buyer has the capability of manufacturing. 
In addition, with respect to Excluded Products that are allowed to be
sold through group purchasing organizations or Third Party Distributors
pursuant to the provisions of 5.9(c), Buyer shall during the Non-Compete Period
be given a first opportunity to supply to Seller or other members of the Encore
Group such Excluded Products provided Buyer (i) can meet all of the price,
quality, timeliness and other reasonable requirements of such bundled sale and (ii) has
not been specifically excluded from supplying such products by action of the
group purchasing organization or Third Party Distributor.  Neither party shall be obligated in any
respect to enter into such supply arrangements.

 

5.11                           Returns.  Buyer is not acquiring or assuming Seller’s
liability for product returns relating to sales to customers occurring prior to
the Closing Date which arise due to damage-in-transit, short shipments, or product
warranty claims (collectively, the “Customary Returns”), or which Seller
allows, in its own discretion.  Seller,
therefore, agrees that with respect to any such product returns occurring on or
before the date that is four (4) months after the Closing Date that relate
to sales by Seller prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall be responsible and
shall reimburse Buyer (i) for the original invoiced amount on such returns
as to which the customer is not seeking a replacement product, or (ii) for
Buyer’s full cost of goods on any products shipped to such customer in
replacement of said returned product. 
During the four (4)-month period after the Closing Date, Buyer shall not
accept any returns other than Customary Returns unless authorized by Seller if
such returns would require Seller to compensate Buyer under the provisions of
this Section.  Seller shall pay Buyer
amounts required under this Section 5.11 within 30 days of Buyer’s invoice
to Seller for such amounts.

Dear Mr. Langer:

 

Reference is made to the
Consulting Agreement dated July 23, 2001 between Momenta
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (formerly Mimeon, Inc.)  (“Momenta”), and you, as extended by the June 23, 2003 and July 2,
2004 letter agreements (collectively, the “Agreement”).  Capitalized terms used herein and not
otherwise defined shall have the meanings given such terms in the
Agreement.  The parties hereby amend the
Agreement as follows:

 

1.  Pursuant to
Section 1 of the Agreement, Company and Consultant hereby agree to extend
the term of the Agreement for one additional year, effective from July 23,
2005 through July 22, 2006 (the “Renewal Period”).

 

2.  Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:  “Services.  Consultant shall provide technical and
strategic consulting services in connection with various Momenta programs as
may be reasonably requested by the Company from time to time.”

 

3.  Section 3.1 of the Agreement is hereby
amended by deleting the definition of “Field of Interest” and replacing it with
the following:  “The term ‘Field of
Interest’ shall mean the field of complex mixtures, sequencing, chemical,
enzymatic or biological synthesis, production or modification of linear and
branched sugars and glycoconjugates.”

 

4.  Section 8 of the Agreement is hereby
amended by deleting the second sentence and replacing it with the
following:  “In addition, during the
Renewal Period and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Consultant
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer of
Momenta, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, perform consulting services
in the Field of Interest for or on behalf of any business enterprise.”

 

All other terms and
conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect during the
Renewal Period.

 

If the foregoing is in
conformity with your understanding, please sign both copies of this letter
agreement and return one fully-executed original to me.

 

	
  Very truly yours,

  
	
   

  
	
  /s/ Alan L. Crane
