1. The Company:

Orthovita, Inc. (we, us, our, Orthovita or Company) is a specialty spine and orthopedic company with a portfolio of orthobiologic and biosurgery products. Our products are based on novel and unique proprietary biomaterials that have innovative mechanisms of action in the body. Our orthobiologic platform offers products for the fusion, regeneration and fixation of human bone. Our biosurgery platform offers products for controlling intra-operative bleeding, also known as hemostasis. In the U.S., we primarily market our products through a direct sales force but also utilize distributors and independent sales agents in certain geographical areas and for certain products. Outside the U.S., we market our products through a direct sales force in the United Kingdom and through distributors in other countries.

Orthobiologics

Vitoss™ Bone Graft Substitute is our primary fusion and regeneration product, and Cortoss™ Bone Augmentation Material is our primary fixation product. Our Vitoss product line, which includes Vitoss Foam and Vitoss Bioactive Foam products, provides the non-structural bone graft market with synthetic, bioactive alternatives to patient- and cadaver-derived bone tissue. Cortoss is an injectable polymer composite which mimics the structural characteristics of human bone and provides the vertebral compression fracture market with a synthetic, bioactive alternative to polymethylmethacrylate bone cement.

Biosurgery

The primary products in our hemostasis portfolio are Vitagel™ Surgical Hemostat, a proprietary, collagen-based matrix that controls bleeding and facilitates healing, and Vitasure™ Absorbable Hemostat, a proprietary, plant-based product that can be deployed quickly throughout surgery.

We also market accessories and delivery products which complement the orthobiologic and biosurgery platforms. In addition, we seek to expand our product portfolio through internal product development efforts, co-development efforts with strategic partners, and acquisition and in-licensing opportunities.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Orthovita and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. We have eliminated all intercompany balances in consolidation.

The financial statements of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities, and an average exchange rate for each period of revenues, expenses, and gain and losses. The functional currency of our non-U.S. operations is the local currency. Adjustments resulting from the translation of financial statements are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Transaction gains and losses are charged to operations.

Preparation of Financial Statements and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Orthovita were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and the interim financial statements rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, these consolidated interim statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated interim financial statements. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year or for any interim period. The consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ORTHOVITA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(All amounts in thousands except per share data)

(Unaudited)

The preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements requires us to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to accounts receivable, inventories and recoverability of long-lived assets. We use historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making estimates. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates will be reflected in the financial statements for those future periods.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

We consider all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of deposits that are readily convertible into cash (see note 3).

For financial reporting purposes, our entire short-term investment portfolio is classified as available-for-sale and is stated at fair value as determined by quoted market values. Accordingly, any unrealized holding gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Discounts and premiums are amortized over the term of the security and reported in interest income. The investments are reviewed on a periodic basis for other-than-temporary impairments (see notes 3 and 4).

Fair Value Measurements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. The guidance applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and indicates, among other things, that a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value based upon an exit price model.

Our financial instruments are categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows:

• Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

• Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Our policy is to limit the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution and place investments with financial institutions evaluated as being creditworthy, or in short-term money market funds which are exposed to minimal interest rate and credit risk. We maintain our cash primarily in investment accounts within large financial institutions. Currently, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures these balances up to $250 per bank. We have not experienced any losses on our bank deposits and we believe these deposits do not expose us to any significant credit risk.

We grant credit, generally without collateral, to our customers, which are primarily in the health care market. Consequently, we are subject to potential credit risk related to changes in economic conditions within that market. However, we believe that our billing and collection policies are adequate to minimize the potential credit risk.

Concentrations of Supply Risk

We are highly dependent on Kensey Nash Corporation (Kensey) as a sole source provider of certain raw materials used in the manufacture of Vitoss Foam products and as the sole manufacturer of our Vitoss Foam products (see note 12). We also source other raw materials and a majority of the disposable components that accompany and are used with our products with a limited number of third party manufacturers and we are highly dependent upon these manufacturers.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value using the first-in first-out basis, or FIFO. A provision is recorded to reduce the cost of inventories to the estimated net realizable values, if required. The costs of producing inventory in the reporting periods prior to the receipt of regulatory approval or clearance are recorded as research and development expense (see note 5).

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each asset, generally three to five years. The useful life for leasehold improvements is generally the term of the facility lease. Expenditures for major renewals and improvements are capitalized, and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Property and equipment includes assets designated as construction in-progress and not placed in service. We begin to record depreciation expense on these assets when they are placed into service or, if the property and equipment requires approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), when such approval is obtained and the asset is placed in service (see note 6).

Interest cost that is incurred on borrowed funds used to expand the manufacturing facilities is capitalized and is recorded as part of the asset to which it relates and is amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. We measure the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. If the sum of the expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment charge would be recognized. The impairment charge would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The determination of fair value is based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including the discounted value of estimated future cash flows. We did not recognize any impairment charges related to our long-lived assets, property and equipment or intangible assets, during either the three or six months ended June 30, 2010 or the three or six months ended June 30, 2009 as management believes their carrying amounts were not impaired.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

The carrying value of intangible assets, which consist of acquired technology and license rights, are generally amortized on a straight line basis or the unit of sales method.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is not recognized until persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, performance or delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. In the U.S., we recognize product sales revenue upon either shipment of purchased product to the customer, or receipt of documentation from the customer indicating its consumption of product from consigned inventory. Outside the U.S., revenue from product sales is primarily recognized upon shipment of the product to distributors.

We have no obligations to our customers once title has been transferred but allow the return or exchange of ambient temperature products within five days of their original delivery. Subsequent to the end of every quarter we adjust sales, cost of sales, inventory and accounts receivable for the effect of such returns. We generally require each of our U.S. and U.K. customers to pay on a net 30-day basis. Outside of the U.S. and the U.K., independent stocking distributors are generally required to pay on a net 60-day basis.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at grant-date fair value and amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting terms of the awards in the consolidated statements of operations based upon the portion of the awards that are expected to vest. We estimate pre-vesting forfeitures by analyzing historical data and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

The following table sets forth the total stock-based compensation expense included in our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2010		2009		2010		2009
Cost of sales	$	21	$	28	$	31	$	42
General and administrative		240		143		450		309
Selling and marketing		134		154		318		275
Research and development		59		48		121		100
Total	$	454	$	373	$	920	$	726

The fair value of stock option awards granted to employees was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2010		2009		2010		2009
Risk-free interest rate	3.11	%	3.11	%	3.05	%	2.80	%
Expected volatility	55	%	55	%	55	%	55	%
Dividend yield	0	%	0	%	0	%	0	%
Expected life	6 years		6 years		6 years		6 years

The weighted average fair value of options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 was $2.18 and $2.45 per share, respectively, and $2.26 and $1.94 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we calculated expected volatility based upon the historical daily closing prices of our common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market (NASDAQ) over a prior period having a term equal to the expected life of the stock options.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per share excludes securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of common stock, and it is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per common share data is computed assuming the conversion or exercise of all dilutive securities such as common stock options and warrants.

Equity awards and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,311and 9,549 common shares were excluded from our computation of diluted net loss per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, because the inclusion of the shares in the calculation would have been anti-dilutive due to our losses.

Recently Issued Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued amended guidance requiring additional fair value disclosures related to inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value as well as disclosures about significant transfers between levels in the hierarchy of fair value measurement. This guidance became effective for us beginning on January 1, 2010 and did not have a significant impact on our consolidated interim financial statements.

This facility was approved by the FDA and placed in service in July 2010.

We capitalize interest cost incurred on borrowed funds used to expand our manufacturing facilities. The capitalized interest is recorded as part of the asset to which it relates and is amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life. Interest cost capitalized was $0 and $285 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $180 and $303 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Depreciation expense was $543 and $470 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and $1,059 and $923 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

8. Senior Secured Note Purchase Facility:

We have $35,000 in outstanding principal indebtedness under a senior secured note purchase facility. Notes issued under the facility are due July 30, 2012. Outstanding principal amounts under the notes bear annual interest at 10%, except that during the continuance of any event of defaults, interest would accrue at the rate of 12% per year and the notes would be payable on demand. In connection with entering into the facility, we issued to the note purchaser five-year warrants to purchase 1,466 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.41 per share. Of these warrants, warrants to purchase 1,100 shares of our common stock remained outstanding at June 30, 2010 and expire in July 2012. The fair value of the warrants of $1,492 was recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as a discount to the loan and is being amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the facility.

Borrowings under the facility are guaranteed by us and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. The facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of our assets (including intellectual property) other than those exclusively related to Cortoss and Aliquot. We are required to make quarterly interest-only payments to the note holder. Upon the occurrence of various events, including our receipt of (i) proceeds in excess of 5% of our total assets for certain asset dispositions; (ii) more than $1,000 in aggregate cash insurance proceeds for damaged or destroyed property that is not applied to the repair or replacement of the property within one year; or (iii) more than $7,500 in gross cash proceeds from judgment awards or settlements, the note holders are entitled to prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the notes to the extent of the net cash proceeds that we receive. We may prepay at any time any part of the outstanding balance under the notes, in a minimum amount of $2,000 and in increments of at least $1,000 in excess of such minimum, together with interest accrued thereon. Both mandatory and optional prepayments are subject to a prepayment premium (currently 12% of the principal balance of the notes). The unpaid principal amount under the notes and accrued interest and all other obligations shall become due and payable immediately if we are insolvent, are in bankruptcy proceedings or have a custodian or receiver appointed for any substantial part of our property. If an event of default not described in the preceding sentence occurs and is continuing (including a change of control of the Company), then the holders of at least two-thirds in principal amount of notes then outstanding may declare the unpaid principal amount of the notes, accrued interest and all other obligations due and payable immediately. In addition, if the notes become due and payable, whether automatically or by declaration, by reason of any of the following events of default, then we must pay the required prepayment premium (currently 12% of the principal balance of the notes), depending on the timing of the prepayment:

• failure to pay any principal on any note or prepayment premiums, if any, when due and payable;

• failure to pay any interest on any note or other amount (other than principal or prepayment premiums) for more than three business days after becoming due and payable;

• we become insolvent, are in bankruptcy proceedings or have a custodian or receiver appointed for any substantial part of our property; or

• the occurrence of a change of control of the Company as defined in the facility.

Under the facility, we must comply with various financial and non-financial covenants. Under the financial covenant, we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance equal to at least 25% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the notes in a separate interest-bearing deposit or other similar demand investment account that is pledged as collateral for the loan. As of June 30, 2010, we must maintain a minimum cash, cash equivalent, and short-term investment balance of $8,750. If the balance in the separate account falls below an amount equal to 40% of the principal amount outstanding under the notes, we must obtain and maintain for the benefit of favor of the note holder a letter of credit in the amount of 25% of the principal amount outstanding under the notes. As of June 30, 2010, we must maintain a minimum balance of $14,000 in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments in order to avoid obtaining a letter of credit. Currently, we are not required to obtain a letter of credit. The primary non-financial covenants limit our ability to incur indebtedness or liens, sell assets, conduct mergers or acquisitions as defined in the facility terms, make investments and pay dividends.

Borrowing obligation maturities as of June 30, 2010 are as follows:

	Notes Payable
2010	$	—
2011		—
2012		35,000

Performance-based Equity Awards

In 2008, we granted performance-based equity awards under the Plan to certain executive officers whereby up to an aggregate of 421 shares of our common stock, valued at $2.68 per share, could be issued. The number of shares of common stock issuable under each award was dependent upon our achievement of pre-determined levels of U.S. sales of Cortoss Bone Augmentation Material and related delivery systems during a twelve-month period that ended on June 30, 2010. None of the performance objectives were achieved and the shares are not shown in the table above. No compensation expense has been recorded for these performance shares during the six months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, $20 of such compensation expense was recorded related to these awards but was subsequently reversed in the second half of 2009.

Restricted Common Stock and Restricted Common Stock Units

During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we issued 134 shares of common stock in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units awarded under the Plan.

There was $196 of unrecognized cost related to unvested restricted common stock and restricted common stock units as of June 30, 2010, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.7 years. Compensation expense related to these awards was $45 and $38 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and $89 and $147 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As of June 30, 2010 there were 83 shares outstanding of unvested restricted common stock and unvested restricted common stock units representing 113 shares of common stock.

Common Stock Options

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we granted options to purchase 1,342 shares of common stock under the Plan to our employees. The aggregate fair value of the grants was $2,835 and is being amortized over the four year vesting term. Compensation expense related to common stock options was $410 and $315 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and $831 and $559 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Options are granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Generally, incentive stock options become exercisable in equal installments over a four-year period and nonqualified stock options granted to non-employee consultants are fully vested on the date of grant. The options generally remain exercisable for a maximum period of ten years. Upon exercise of options, new shares of common stock are issued.

Agreement with Kensey Nash Corporation

We have an agreement with Kensey to jointly develop and commercialize certain biomaterials-based products based upon the Vitoss platform. The products developed under this agreement are based on our internally developed proprietary Vitoss bone void filler material in combination with proprietary resorbable Kensey biomaterials. Kensey has the exclusive right to manufacture any approved or cleared jointly developed product under the agreement, and we will market and sell the product worldwide. Under the agreement, we are obligated to pay Kensey both a transfer price for manufacturing products and royalties based on the net sales of such products. These rights and obligations extend until February 2014 for the Vitoss Foam product platform and until February 2024 for the Vitoss Bioactive Foam product platform.

For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we purchased $3,833 and $4,352, respectively, of product inventory manufactured by Kensey. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we owed Kensey $1,206 and $2,420, respectively, for manufactured product inventory and royalties, which are included in accounts payable and other accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. All product royalty expense payable to Kensey is included in cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations as we recognize product sales revenue from ours customers.

Separate from the royalty payment obligation described above, we pay additional royalties to Kensey pursuant to a contractual royalty obligation that Kensey purchased from a co-inventor of the Vitoss technology. Under this arrangement, we are obligated to pay no more than $5,000 in aggregate royalties on Vitoss product sales. For the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized $148 and $184, respectively, as royalty expense under this contractual arrangement. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized $320 and $339, respectively, as royalty expense under this contractual arrangement. From inception of the royalty arrangement through June 30, 2010, we have made aggregate royalty payments of $3,580.

Employment Agreements

Under the terms of employment agreements with two executive officers, extending through April 2011 and May 2011, subject to renewal, we are required to pay each individual a base salary for continuing employment with us. The agreements currently require payments of $601 from July 1, 2010 through May 31, 2011. The agreements also provide for other benefits, including certain obligations that may be triggered by a change in control, termination with cause or resignation for good reason.

Restructuring

In June 2010, we implemented a plan to reduce our workforce. In connection with the restructuring we incurred severance costs of $144 which are included in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, and which have been recorded as a restructuring accrual included in accrued compensation and related expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. We expect to make full payment of the severance amounts during the second half of 2010.

EXECUTIVE LEVEL OVERVIEW

We are a specialty spine and orthopedic company with a portfolio of orthobiologic and biosurgery products. Our products are based on novel and unique proprietary biomaterials that have innovative mechanisms of action in the body.

Our orthobiologic platform includes products for the fusion, regeneration and fixation of human bone. Our orthobiologic products are based in part on our proprietary Vitoss™ Bone Graft Substitute technology and include the Imbibe™ Bone Marrow Aspiration System. Vitoss is the market-leading synthetic bone graft in the U.S. and has been used in more than 335,000 implantations worldwide. Several of our Vitoss products incorporate our proprietary ceramic glass technology which facilitates bone healing. Our orthobiologic products also include our Cortoss™ Bone Augmentation Material (which was first available for sale in the U.S. in July 2009), and the Aliquot™ Delivery System used with Cortoss. Cortoss is an advanced synthetic biomaterial. Following injection into spinal vertebrae, Cortoss hardens to mimic weight-bearing, cortical bone. Cortoss is the first clinically-proven, injectable alternative to polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement that has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures (VCF), an often extremely painful condition that occurs in patients with osteoporosis and cancer. In addition to extensive clinical data showing statistically significant improvements in pain relief (at three months following implantation) and function (at 24 months following implantation) from the use of Cortoss in comparison to PMMA, a subset of the data demonstrated a 43% reduction in the number of adjacent vertebral compression fractures in patients receiving treatment of one level fracture and with no prior vertebral augmentation procedures from the use of Cortoss in comparison to PMMA. We believe that Cortoss also has significant ease-of-use advantages over current vertebral augmentation technology.

Our biosurgery products include Vitagel™ Surgical Hemostat, Vitasure™ Absorbable Hemostat, and the CellPaker™ Plasma Collection System used in conjunction with Vitagel, and other accessories and delivery products that complement our Vitagel product. These products incorporate advanced biosurgical materials and product engineering to help control bleeding during surgeries. Vitagel is the only hemostat that combines microfibrillar collagen, thrombin and the patient’s own plasma to support hemostasis and fibroblast attachment.

We sell our products worldwide and focus on the U.S. orthopedic and spine market. In the U.S. our products are primarily sold through our direct sales force although we also use distributors and independent sales agents in certain geographical areas and for certain products. Our sales force focuses its marketing efforts on orthopedic surgeons, spine surgeons, interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists and hospital administrators. Our products are used with hospital in-patient procedures, hospital outpatient procedures and with ancillary surgical center procedures. Outside the U.S. we use a direct sales force to sell our products in the United Kingdom and we use distributors to sell our products throughout the rest of the world.

18

We manufacture the majority of our products at our facilities in Malvern, Pennsylvania. We are highly dependent on Kensey Nash Corporation (Kensey) as a sole source provider of certain raw materials used in the manufacture of Vitoss Foam products and as the sole manufacturer of our Vitoss Foam products. We co-developed the Vitoss Foam platform with Kensey and our cost of goods sold includes royalty expense to Kensey. We also source other raw materials and a majority of the disposable components that accompany and are used with our products with a limited number of third party manufacturers. We expect to continue to use these and additional third party manufacturers to reduce costs and increase product gross margins whenever practical.

We manage our orthobiologic and biosurgery platforms as a single business unit. Accordingly, we report our financial results under a single operating segment – the development, manufacture and sale of specialty spine and orthopedic products.

Our mission is to develop and market quality products backed by solid clinical research that will improve patient outcomes and meet the needs of our surgical customers with maximum effectiveness and safety. Our strategy to accomplish this is threefold: (i) maximize the growth of existing products by continuing to optimize our sales distribution channels (using our hybrid sales model that utilizes direct sales representatives, independent sales agents and distributors), develop additional post-market clinical data and manage the lifecycles of product portfolios; (ii) continue product pipeline development of our own internally developed products; and (iii) pursue in-licensing, joint venture and acquisition opportunities to augment our product portfolio.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL RESULTS AND STRATEGIC UPDATE

Product Sales

Product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased 3% to $23.9 million compared to $24.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010 included $1.3 million of Cortoss and Aliquot sales in the U.S. (which were first available for sale in the U.S. in the third quarter of 2009). Product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009 included $0.6 million from the sale of Vitomatrix™, a bone graft material used in dental applications, to one customer. Our supply agreement for Vitomatrix terminated in March 2010; as such there were no Vitomatrix sales in the second quarter of 2010.

Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 increased 4% to $47.9 million compared to $46.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 included $2.2 million of Cortoss and Aliquot sales in the U.S. (which, as noted above, were first available for sale in the U.S. in the third quarter of 2009). Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 included $1.1 million and $0.6 million of sales of Vitomatrix, respectively.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was $15.7 million and $32.4 million, respectively, as compared to $16.8 million and $31.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. As a percentage of sales, gross profit was 66% and 68% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as compared to 69% and 68%, respectively for the corresponding periods in 2009. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the corresponding period in 2009 is attributable to a more favorable product mix in the second quarter of 2009 and, in the second quarter of 2010, higher charges due to unused manufacturing capacity and increased reserves for expiring inventory. Excess manufacturing capacity charges result when actual inventory production is below normal productive capacity. Reserve charges relate to inventory that is expected to reach its expiration date prior to being sold.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 were $15.3 million and $32.4 million, respectively, compared to $16.9 million and $32.0 million, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 2009. Operating expenses were 64% and 68% of product sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as compared to 69% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. This favorable reduction in operating expenses as a percentage of product sales in 2010 compared to 2009 is attributable to lower selling and marketing expenses, including lower sales commissions, and reduced research and development expense. These expense reductions were partially offset by increased general and administrative expenses.

Strategic Update

Cortoss was launched in the U.S. in July 2009 following its clearance by the FDA for the treatment of VCFs. Our commercial strategy has been to leverage our existing specialty spine and orthopedic sales force to market and sell Cortoss to our primary target audience of spine surgeons and neurosurgeons. Our focus has been on the hospital inpatient market, where these surgeons perform most of their surgical procedures. We expanded our sales force from 85 sales representatives in early 2009 to 100 at June 30, 2010. We also expanded our infrastructure in anticipation of higher sales growth from Cortoss and our other products.

19

Over the past several quarters our strategy for launching Cortoss has been affected and altered by a significant shift of vertebral augmentation procedures from the hospital inpatient to outpatient settings. We believe this shift is occurring due to the pressure on hospitals to reduce costs. This pressure was exacerbated during 2009 and 2010 following the imposition of significant fines by the U.S. government on a number of hospitals that treated VCF patients in the inpatient setting when these patients could have been treated more cost-effectively in the outpatient setting. As a result of these pressures, we believe the number of vertebral augmentation procedures performed by spine surgeons and neurosurgeons, our primary target audience, has decreased, and a greater number of procedures are being performed in an outpatient setting by interventional radiologists and neuroradiologists, which is a new target physician audience for us. We believe that the recent changes in the VCF market have both slowed our anticipated rate of adoption of Cortoss and shifted sales force time away from the spine surgeons and neurosurgeons who use our Vitoss synthetic bone graft products, which has adversely affected the growth of these products. While our biosurgery customers are primarily located in the inpatient setting, our biosurgery growth has not been negatively impacted by our sales representatives’ attention to the new outpatient market since the biosurgery selling process is less time-intensive than for Vitoss and Cortoss.

To more effectively address the outpatient VCF market, we intend to augment our direct sales efforts with distributors that specialize in the outpatient market. We have streamlined our direct sales force, which will continue to focus primarily on the inpatient spine and orthopedic market to leverage our customer relationships by marketing our biosurgery and orthobiologic products to all of our customers. Through an intense focus on our target physician audiences using a combination of our direct sales representatives, sales agents and distributors in a hybrid sales model, our goal is to regain sales momentum and growth in our Vitoss platform while continuing to increase penetration of Cortoss and growth of our biosurgery product sales. We have also reduced the size of our infrastructure, including related expenses, in an effort to reduce our operating costs.

Over the longer term, we are developing additional indications for Cortoss that we believe could expand its usage within the hospital inpatient surgery setting. These development efforts are currently in the pre-clinical stage.

We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our hybrid sales model and the impact of our expense reductions and adjust our commercial strategy as warranted with the goals of strong sales growth, increasing gross profit, improving gross profit margins, increasing leverage of our existing infrastructure, profitability and increasing shareholder value. There are many factors that will affect our ability to achieve these objectives and there is no guarantee that we will be able to achieve any of these goals. Some of these risks are contained in the forward looking statements overview at the introduction of this discussion. Other risk factors are addressed in ITEM 1A. “RISK FACTORS” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 as filed with the SEC.

You should also read the additional detailed commentary of product sales, gross profit, operating expenses and other analyses of the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 contained later in this discussion.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of our consolidated interim financial statements requires us to make assumptions, estimates and judgments which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of our consolidated interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. By their nature, these assumptions, estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making estimates. Actual results will differ from those estimates. We have addressed our critical accounting policies in ITEM 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 under the caption “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES.” There were no changes in our critical accounting policies for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that amends ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, that requires reporting entities to make new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair-value measurements including significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair-value measurements, and information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair-value measurements. This guidance also clarifies existing fair-value measurement disclosure guidance about the level of disaggregation, inputs, and valuation techniques. Except for the detailed Level 3 roll-forward disclosures, the guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 and did not have an impact on our consolidated interim financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We have incurred annual operating losses since inception. We may continue to incur operating losses in the future unless we can consistently leverage our product portfolio, our direct sales force, our manufacturing capacity and our product development capability to generate product sales in amounts that exceed our cost of sales and operating expenses. Our ability to increase revenue and to attain profitability are affected by the risk factors addressed in ITEM 1A. “RISK FACTORS” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, which was filed with the SEC.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2009

Product Sales

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010		2009		% Change
Orthobiologics	$	18,084	$	19,246	-6	%
Biosurgery		5,768		5,246	10	%
	$	23,852	$	24,492	-3	%

Product sales of $23.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased 3% from $24.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, 95% of product sales were in the U.S. and 5% were outside the U.S. For the corresponding period in 2009, 94% of product sales were in the U.S. and 6% were outside the United States.

Orthobiologic product sales represented 76% of total product sales in the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 79% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Orthobiologic product sales during the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $18.1 million, a 6% decrease from the $19.2 million recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2009. Product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010 included $1.3 million of U.S. product sales of Cortoss and Aliquot. There were no U.S. product sales of Cortoss and Aliquot during the three months ended June 30, 2009 as these products were not available for sale in the U.S. until July 2009. Product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009 included $0.6 million from the sale of Vitomatrix pursuant to a supply agreement with a third party. This agreement was terminated by mutual agreement in March 2010. No sales of Vitomatrix were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and no further sales related to this agreement are expected.

Sales of our Vitoss products, excluding the $0.6 million sale of Vitomatrix™ in the second quarter of 2009, decreased by 9% in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009. The decrease in our Vitoss sales resulted primarily from lower sales of our Vitoss Morsel and Vitoss Foam products; sales of our Vitoss Bioactive Foam products increased 7% in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009.

Biosurgery product sales represented 24% of total product sales in the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 21% in the three months ended June 30, 2009. Biosurgery product sales increased to $5.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $5.2 million in corresponding period in 2009, an increase of 10% primarily due to higher Vitagel sales.

Gross Profit

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Gross margin	$	15,744		$	16,825		-6	%
Gross margin as a percentage of product sales		66	%		69	%

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 was $15.7 million and $16.8 million, respectively. As a percentage of product sales, gross profit was 66% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to 69% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of product sales is attributable to several factors, including a more favorable product mix in the second quarter of 2009 (including higher-margin Vitomatrix sales) compared to the second quarter of 2010, and, in the second quarter of 2010, higher charges due to unused manufacturing capacity and increased reserves for expiring inventory. Our gross profit may fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on additional unused manufacturing capacity charges, and additional reserves for product expiry, as well as the mix of products sold from period to period.

21

Operating expenses

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Operating expenses	$	15,340		$	16,923		-9	%
Operating expenses as a % of product sales		64	%		69	%

Operating expenses were $15.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, a 9% decrease from operating expenses of $16.9 million in the corresponding period in 2009. The $1.6 million decrease in operating expenses is primarily due to reduced sales and marketing expenses (including lower commission expense) and lower research and development expenses, which were partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses as a percentage of product sales were 64% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 69% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. We expect that the reduction in force we implemented on June 30, 2010, combined with other expense optimization initiatives, will have a favorable impact by lowering expenses in the near term.

General and administrative expenses

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
General and administrative expense	$	3,380		$	3,091		9	%
General and administrative expense as a % of product sales		14	%		13	%

General and administrative expenses for three months ended June 30, 2010 were $3.4 million compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of 9%. The increase is primarily due to increased expenditures for information technology including personnel and consulting costs to support our operations. As a percentage of product sales, general and administrative expenses were 14% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 13% for the corresponding period in 2009. We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease as a result of recent expense reduction initiatives and that these expenses will decline as a percentage of product sales assuming our products sales increase.

Selling and marketing expenses

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Selling and marketing expense	$	10,740		$	12,115		-11	%
Selling and marketing expense as a % of product sales		45	%		49	%

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $10.7 million, compared to $12.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of 11%. As a percentage of product sales, selling and marketing expenses were 45% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 49% for the corresponding period in 2009. The reduction in both the amount of sales and marketing expenses and these expenses as a percentage of product sales are due to reduced sales force discretionary spending, lower commission expense, and reduced marketing-related expenditures.

Research and development expenses

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Research and development expense	$	1,220		$	1,717		-29	%
Research and development expense as a % of product sales		5	%		7	%

Research and development expenses for three months ended June 30, 2010 were $1.2 million compared to $1.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of 29% primarily attributable to lower Cortoss development and clinical trial costs. As a percentage of product sales, research and development expenses were 5% of product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 7% of product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

22

Interest Expense

Interest expense for both the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 relates to $35.0 million in outstanding principal indebtedness under a senior secured note purchase facility, net of capitalized interest, if any. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.0 million compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. There was no interest expense capitalized for the three months ended June 30, 2010 while $0.3 million was capitalized for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2009

Product Sales

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010		2009		% Change
Orthobiologics	$	36,405	$	35,768	2	%
Biosurgery		11,524		10,414	11	%
	$	47,929	$	46,182	4	%

Product sales of $47.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 increased 4% from $46.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, 95% of product sales were in the U.S. and 5% were outside the U.S. For the corresponding period in 2009, 94% of product sales were in the U.S. and 6% were outside the U.S.

Orthobiologic product sales represented 76% of total product sales in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 77% for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Orthobiologic product sales during the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $36.4 million, a 2% increase over the $35.8 million recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2009. Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 included $2.2 million of U.S. product sales of Cortoss and Aliquot. There were no U.S. product sales of Cortoss and Aliquot in the corresponding period of 2009 because these products were not available for sale in the U.S. until July 2009. Product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 included $1.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from the sale of Vitomatrix pursuant to a supply agreement with a third party. This agreement was terminated in March 2010 and no further sales relating to this agreement are expected.

Biosurgery product sales represented 24% of total product sales in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 23% in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Biosurgery product sales increased to $11.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 from $10.4 million in corresponding period in 2009, an increase of 11% primarily due to higher Vitagel sales.

Gross Profit

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Gross margin	$	32,422		$	31,505		3	%
Gross margin as a percentage of product sales		68	%		68	%

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 was $32.4 million and $31.5 million, respectively. As a percentage of sales, gross profit was 68% for the both periods. During the first six months of 2010, unfavorable charges related to unused manufacturing capacity and inventory expiration were offset by a more favorable product mix. Our gross profit may fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on additional unused manufacturing capacity charges and additional reserves for product expiry, as well as the mix of products sold from period to period.

Operating expenses

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Operating expenses	$	32,428		$	31,975		1	%
Operating expenses as a % of product sales		68	%		69	%

Operating expenses were $32.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a 1% increase over operating expenses of $32.0 million in the corresponding period in 2009. The $0.5 million increase in operating expenses reflects higher general and administrative expenses and higher sales and marketing expenses, which were partially offset by lower research and development expenses. Operating expenses as a percentage of product sales were 68% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 69% for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

23

General and administrative expenses

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
General and administrative expense	$	6,812		$	5,704		19	%
General and administrative expense as a % of product sales		14	%		12	%

General and administrative expenses for six months ended June 30, 2010 were $6.8 million compared to $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of 19%. The increase is primarily due to additional finance and information technology staff required to provide sufficient infrastructure to support our operations. As a percentage of product sales, general and administrative expenses were 14% of product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 12% of product sales for the corresponding period in 2009. We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease as a result of our recent expense reduction initiatives and that general and administrative expenses will decline as a percentage of sales assuming our product sales increase.

Selling and marketing expenses

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Selling and marketing expense	$	23,114		$	22,614		2	%
Selling and marketing expense as a % of product sales		48	%		49	%

Selling and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $23.1 million compared to $22.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of 2%. This increase in amount is due to higher sales force expenses and additional post- marketing clinical studies which were partially offset by lower commission expense. As a percentage of product sales, selling and marketing expenses were 48% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 49% for the corresponding period in 2009. At June 30, 2010 our sales force was composed of 100 sales representatives while at June 30, 2009, our sales force was composed of 90 sales representatives. We expect that our direct sales force will remain at or below our current staffing levels for the foreseeable future as we augment our efforts with additional third party distributors and independent sales agents to address the outpatient market for Cortoss and Aliquot.

Research and development expenses

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010			2009			% Change
Research and development expense	$	2,502		$	3,657		-32	%
Research and development expense as a % of product sales		5	%		8	%

Research and development expenses for six months ended June 30, 2010 were $2.5 million compared to $3.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of 32% primarily attributable to lower Cortoss and certain other product development costs. As a percentage of product sales, research and development expenses were 5% of product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 8% of product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for both the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 relates to $35.0 million in outstanding principal indebtedness under a senior secured note purchase facility, net of capitalized interest, if any. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.7 million compared to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. There was $0.2 million and $0.3 million of interest capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have experienced negative operating cash flows since our inception, and we have funded our operations primarily from the proceeds we received from sales of our common stock and other debt and equity securities. At June 30, 2010, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $18.6 million, which represents 21% of total assets. At December 31, 2009, cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $23.1 million were 25% of total assets.

24

The Company’s cash flow activity was as follows:

	Six months Ended June 30,
	2010			2009
	(In thousands)
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(3,969	)	$	(3,446	)
Net cash provided by investing activities		3,943			5,422
Net cash provided by financing activities		823			586
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents		(308	)		8
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	489		$	2,570

We will continue to use our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments to fund our operations and fund our planned capital expenditures until such time as we are consistently profitable. We anticipate the level of cash utilization for the second half of 2010 will be below the cash utilized in the first half of the year. Our operating cash flows are heavily dependent upon: (i) maintaining and growing product sales; (ii) the size of our direct sales force; (iii) our product sales mix as relative increases in sales of our lower margin products result in lower gross profit; (iv) the amount of inventory, including raw materials and work-in-process, that we maintain to support product sales, anticipated product sales and anticipated product launches; and (v) the overall level of our research and development activities, which will depend on the development status and costs of products in our pipeline and any new products that we could pursue in the future. Accordingly, for the foreseeable future, our operating cash requirements may continue to be subject to quarterly volatility. If we are unable to improve cash flows from operations, we will need to consider and evaluate alternatives including reduction of capital expenditures, other cost reductions, and renegotiation of our outstanding debt, among others. Additionally, cash resources could be affected by in-licensing, joint ventures, acquisitions and other investment opportunities that we may pursue.

DISCUSSION OF CASH FLOWS

Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 was $4.0 million and $3.4 million, respectively, and was primarily due to the use of cash to settle accounts payable and other current liabilities and to build inventory to support anticipated product sales levels. During the first half of 2010, we used cash to build inventory, and reduce accounts payable and other accrued expenses. We expect that inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses at December 31, 2010 will approximate the amounts reported at June 30, 2010 and, accordingly, we expect that we will not require significant cash utilization during the second half of 2010.

Cash Flows Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $5.4 million for the same period in 2009. Net proceeds from purchases and the sale and maturity of investments decreased by $5.1 million in 2010 compared to 2009. Purchases of property and equipment totaled $0.9 million and $4.0 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively, and primarily related to the expansion of our Cortoss and Vitagel manufacturing facilities. The rate of capital expenditures may increase over the remainder of 2010 but we expect that capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2010 will be below the amount of capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2009.

We invest our excess cash in highly liquid investment-grade marketable securities, including U.S. Treasury securities and government-sponsored enterprise debt securities. Marketable securities having maturities greater than three months and less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Until we achieve sales at levels that consistently enable us to fund operations and investing activities, we will to continue to use cash, cash equivalents and proceeds from sales of short-term investments to fund operating and investing activities.

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $0.8 million compared to $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and relates to cash received upon the exercise of options to purchase our common stock and shares purchased in conjunction with the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS

Senior Secured Note Purchase Facility.We have $35.0 million in outstanding principal indebtedness under a senior secured note purchase facility. Notes issued under the facility are due July 30, 2012. Borrowings under the facility are guaranteed by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. The facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of our assets (including intellectual property) other than those exclusively related to Cortoss and Aliquot. We are required to make quarterly interest-only payments to the note holder. Outstanding principal amounts under the notes bear annual interest at 10%, except that during the continuance of any event of defaults, interest would accrue at the rate of 12% per year and the notes would be payable on demand. We expect to incur quarterly interest payments of $0.9 million under our debt facility during 2010 and each year thereafter until maturity on July 30, 2012. The notes contain various financial and non-financial covenants. Under the financial covenant, we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance equal to at least 25% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the notes in a separate interest-bearing deposit or other similar demand investment account that is pledged as collateral for the loan. As of June 30, 2010, we must maintain a minimum cash, cash equivalent, and short-term investment balance of $8.8 million. If the balance in the separate account falls below an amount equal to 40% of the principal amount outstanding under the notes, we must obtain and maintain for the benefit of the note holder a letter of credit in the amount of 25% of the principal amount outstanding under the notes. At June 30, 2010, we had met our minimum balance of $14.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments and, therefore, it was not necessary to obtain a letter of credit.

While we believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our currently estimated operating and investing requirements for the foreseeable future and that such balances will remain above $14.0 million. Should our cash balances fall below $14.0 million there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain a waiver from the noteholder, obtain a letter of credit or refinance the notes.

Leases.We lease facilities under non-cancelable operating leases that extend through July 31, 2017. As we continue to expand, we expect to lease additional facilities.

Employment Agreements.Under the terms of employment agreements with two executive officers, extending through April 2011 and May 2011, subject to renewal, we are required to pay each individual a base salary for continuing employment with us. The agreements currently require aggregate payments of $0.6 million from July 1, 2010 through May 31, 2011. The agreements also provide for other benefits, including certain obligations that may be triggered by a change in control, termination with cause or resignation for good reason.

Agreement with Kensey Nash Corporation.For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, approximately 66% and 72%, respectively, of our product sales are from products based upon our Vitoss Foam platform co-developed with Kensey, including Vitoss Bioactive Foam. As of June 30, 2010, we owed Kensey $1.2 million for manufactured product inventory and royalties, which amount is included in accounts payable and other accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet included in this report.

We pay additional royalties to Kensey pursuant to a contractual royalty obligation that Kensey purchased from a co-inventor of Vitoss technology. Under this arrangement, we are obligated to pay no more than $5 million in aggregate royalties on Vitoss product sales. From inception of the royalty arrangement through June 30, 2010, we have made aggregate royalty payments of $3.6 million.

Restructuring

In June 2010, we implemented a plan to reduce our workforce. In connection with the restructuring we incurred severance costs of $0.1 million which are included in operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2010 in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and which have been recorded as a restructuring accrual in accrued compensation and related expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. We expect to make full payment of the severance amounts during the second half of 2010. We expect that the reduction in salary, benefit and other personnel related expenses from the June workforce reduction, combined with subsequent terminations and the elimination of certain positions, will result in a $2.4 million reduction in operating expenses on an annualized basis.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Risk

The functional currency for our European branch operation is the Euro. The functional currency for our U.K. subsidiary operation is the British pound sterling. All assets and liabilities related to these operations are translated at the current exchange rates at the end of each period. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are accumulated in a separate component of shareholders’ equity (accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, if any, are included in our results of operations.

As of June 30, 2010, our total exposure to foreign currency risk in U.S. dollar terms was approximately $3.6 million, or 4%, of our total assets. The potential impact of a hypothetical 10% decline in the foreign exchange rates would result in a total decline in the fair value of our assets of approximately $0.4 million at June 30, 2010.

Market Risk

We may be exposed to market risk through changes in market interest rates that could affect the value of our short-term investments; however, we do not believe the fair value of our investment portfolio or related income would be significantly affected by changes in interest rates due mainly to the relatively short-term nature of the majority of our investment portfolio.

As of June 30, 2010, our short-term investments consisted of highly liquid investment-grade marketable securities. The impact on our future interest income and future changes in investment yields will depend on the gross amount of our investments and various external economic factors.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2010 are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to costs. Because of the inherent limitation in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected. However, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION

(a) New Severance and Change of Control Agreements with Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire

As part of its regular duties and based on peer group market data and recommendations presented by its independent compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors recently approved a new form of severance and change of control agreement for senior executive officers below the level of President and Chief Executive Officer. The form of agreement was also approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Accordingly, on August 4, 2010, the Company entered into a severance and change of control agreement with each of Christopher H. Smith, the Company’s Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, and Dr. Maarten Persenaire, the Company’s Chief Medical Officer. The severance and change of control provisions for Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire are the same as those previously extended to the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Nancy C. Broadbent, except that Ms. Broadbent’s unvested equity awards granted prior to 2010 are subject to acceleration of vesting upon her termination by the Company without Cause prior to a Change of Control or more than twelve months following a Change of Control.

Each agreement provides for certain compensation and benefits in the event that (1) the Company terminates the executive’s employment (other than for “Cause”); (2) the executive resigns for “Good Reason” within twelve months following a Change of Control of the Company; or (3) a Change of Control of the Company occurs.

Defined Terms. The following terms are used throughout this section and are applicable to the new severance and change of control agreements with Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire:

Cause means:

• conviction of a felony;

• commission of an intentional act of fraud, embezzlement, or theft, or engagement in gross negligence in connection with the executive’s duties in the course of his employment with the Company;

• an intentional breach of the executive’s obligations under the agreement, including inattention to or neglect of duties, that is materially harmful to the Company’s business and remains uncured thirty days after receiving written notice from the Board of Directors specifying the details thereof; or

• the failure by the executive to follow the lawful directives of the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors, provided that the executive shall have been given reasonably detailed notice that such an event constituting cause for termination has occurred and a thirty-day cure period.

Change of Control has the meaning set forth in the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan, as amended. Any of the following situations would constitute a “Change of Control” under the new severance and change of control agreements with Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire:

• the acquisition by a person of securities having more than 50% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities;

• a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets;

• liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

• a merger or consolidation of the Company with another entity in which the Company’s shareholders immediately prior to such transaction do not beneficially own, immediately after such transaction, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity; or

• individuals who, as of April 12, 2007, were members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Incumbent Directors”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, that any person becoming a director subsequent to such date whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors who are directors at the time of such vote is deemed to be an Incumbent Director.

Good Reason means the occurrence of any of the following events or conditions:

• a material diminution in the executive’s duties, responsibilities or authority;

• a material reduction in the executive’s base salary except as part of an across the board reduction applicable to executives generally; or

28

• a failure of the Company to comply with any of the material terms of the relevant agreement.

However, any of the events or conditions described above will only constitute Good Reason if (a) the executive provides the Company with reasonably detailed written notice that such an event constituting cause for termination has occurred; and (b) the Company does not remedy the event or condition within thirty days of receiving the executive’s written notice. In addition, the executive must provide the Company written notice within ninety days following the event that constitutes Good Reason and the executive’s termination must occur within one year following such event.

Termination without Cause; Resignation for Good Reason Following a Change of Control. If (a) the executive is terminated without Cause or, within twelve months following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the executive resigns for Good Reason, and (b) the executive executes a release waiving any and all current and future claims against us relating to his employment with, or termination by, the Company, such executive would be entitled to:

• a cash amount equal to eighteen months of the executive’s then current base salary, payable in normal installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices;provided, however, that such amount would equal only twelve months of current base salary if the termination without Cause occurs prior to a Change of Control or more than twelve months after the occurrence of a Change of Control;

• a pro rata bonus for the year in which the executive’s termination of employment occurs to the extent that such amount would have been earned in accordance with the terms of the Company’s annual incentive program, payable on the date on which other bonuses are paid for the year to other employees after the end of the year to which the bonus relates; provided that in no event shall the executive’s pro rata bonus be paid later than March 15 of the calendar year following the fiscal year for which it was earned, except to the extent required to be delayed under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended;

• an amount equal to the health care continuation coverage premium for the executive, his spouse and dependents until (x) the expiration of the period following the executive’s termination equal in duration to the severance period set forth in the first two bullet points above (twelve to eighteen months, as applicable) or (y) the executive becomes eligible for coverage under a plan maintained by a new employer or under a plan maintained by his spouse’s employer, whichever is sooner, which amounts are payable monthly; and

• to the extent not already paid, any annual bonus payable with respect to a calendar year that ended prior to that termination, accrued salary and any benefits accrued and due under any applicable benefit plans and programs of the Company.

Effect of a Change of Control on Unvested Equity Awards.Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company, one hundred percent of any stock option, restricted stock or other stock grants or awards made to Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire that have not yet become exercisable or vested shall become exercisable or vested.

Restrictive Covenants.Each of Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire is bound by certain non-competition and non-solicitation covenants which extend for a period of twelve months following termination of employment. Each of Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire is bound by certain confidentiality obligations which survive termination of employment.

The foregoing description of the new severance and change of control agreements for Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the new severance and change of control agreements by and between the Company and each of Mr. Smith and Dr. Persenaire, copies of which are attached to this Form 10-Q as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively. The Company is not currently contemplating a change of control transaction, and undertakes no obligation to publicly update any statement contained in this Item 5 regarding the contemplation of any change of control transaction, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
