RTIX-TTG Merger

Frequently Asked Questions

General Information

What is the rational for this merger?

This decision is one that has been made based on careful consideration by both companies. We believe this merger will make a positive impact on all stakeholders of both Tutogen and RTI including customers, patients, etc. The combination of the two companies will create a balanced company specializing in providing sterile biological solutions to patients around the world.

Who approached whom?

Due to the confidentiality of this process, we cannot discuss these details.

How long have you been working on a merger?

The two companies signed a tissue sourcing relationship in 2006. Exploratory discussions began a few months ago, but nothing has been finalized until now.

Are you still considering any other alternatives?

At this time, both companies are working diligently on finalizing the merger.

What are the terms of the merger?

The merger will be conducted as a 100 percent stock-for-stock merger. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Tutogen shareholders will receive 1.22 shares of newly issued RTI common stock in exchange for each share of Tutogen common stock they own. Based on RTI’s closing stock price of $10.54 per share on Nov. 12, 2007, this represents a value of $12.86 per Tutogen share, or an aggregate equity value of approximately $263 million.

When does the merger officially take place?

We expect the transaction to close in the first quarter of 2008, subject to regulatory and other approvals. Until the merger is complete, however, each company will continue to operate independently.

What is the status of the two companies until the merger is completed?

What will the new company be called?

We will be rolling out a new name and brand for the combined company before the merger is complete.

Who will run the combined company?

The combined company will be led by Brian Hutchison as chairman and CEO. Tom Rose, currently vice president, CFO and secretary of RTI, will serve in the same capacity of the combined entity. Guy Mayer, currently president and CEO for Tutogen, will become a member of the board of directors as well as president of the combined company, with a focus on international activities and sales and marketing. L. Robert Johnston, currently vice president and CFO of Tutogen, will serve as vice president of finance for the combined company. Additionally, there will be a combined team with management from both companies.

Who will be on the board?

The board of directors will be comprised of all seven directors from RTI’s current board and five directors from Tutogen’s board, bringing the board to a total of 12 directors including Hutchison and Mayer.

Where will the combined company be headquartered?

The combined company will be headquartered in Alachua, Fla. with facilities in the United States, Germany and France.

What are the benefits of this merger to RTI? What are the benefits of this merger to Tutogen?

The transaction will combine RTI’s expertise for science, safety and innovation in biologics for orthopedics with Tutogen’s leadership in sterile biologic implants for dental, hernia and other specialty surgeries. Benefits of the merger include:

 

   

Diversification of markets, enabling the company to help more patients with sterile, biological solutions. RTI focuses on implants addressing the spine, sports medicine, bone graft substitutes and general orthopedics markets. Tutogen has a complementary focus on dental implants and surgical specialties including urology, obstetrics/gynecology, breast reconstruction, hernia, ophthalmology and ENT markets, as well as implants addressing the spine market. The combined revenue product mix is estimated to be 32 percent spine, 17 percent dental, 16 percent sports medicine, 10 percent bone graft substitutes, 14 percent international and 5 percent surgical specialties, with the remaining 6 percent attributed to other categories.

 

   

Balanced distribution model with reduced concentration risk. In addition to direct distribution networks for RTI’s sports medicine implants and Tutogen’s international business the combined company will create a balanced diversification of strong distributors across its product lines. Distributors of RTI’s products include Medtronic, Stryker, Orthofix, Wright Medical, Exactech and Zimmer, among others. Distributors of Tutogen’s implants include Zimmer, Davol (a subsidiary of C.R.Bard), Mentor, Coloplast and IOP Inc.

Accelerated growth of xenograft products. Tutogen has more than 10 years of experience in developing clinical data and successfully distributing xenograft implants internationally. The combination of RTI’s portfolio of spinal, sports medicine and general orthopedic xenograft implants and Tutogen’s portfolio of products, paired with Tutogen’s extensive distribution network, should allow the combined company to achieve significant growth in xenograft revenues.

 

   

Combination of strong recovery networks. The combined company will bring together one of the most extensive U.S. tissue recovery networks with the leading international tissue recovery network. This will enable the combined company to increase the gift of donation and help more tissue recipients both in the U.S. and around the world.

 

   

Expansion of distribution and marketing team. The combined distribution and marketing team is highly complementary and should provide for significant cross distribution opportunities. RTI has put into place a world-class sports medicine direct distribution network in the U.S., while Tutogen has one of the strongest international distribution networks focused on biologics in the world.

How will the merger impact RTI’s relationship with Medtronic?

There will be no change to RTI’s contract or relationship with Medtronic.

Since both companies have contracts with Zimmer, will the current contracts be impacted?

There will be no immediate change to the Zimmer contracts.

Will the dual sourcing and processing of xenograft be changed?

That will be decided at a later time. In compliance with regulatory requirements, RTI and Tutogen will remain separate and independent companies, and joint activities between the two companies will be restricted until the completion of the transaction. Specific transition details will be made available at a later time.
