RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES FACING CRYOLIFE AND ITS BUSINESS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:

Statements made in this presentation that look forward in time or that express CryoLife’s or Cardiogenesis’ management's beliefs, expectations or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These statements include CryoLife’s expectations regarding future annual market growth for CryoLife’s products and the markets into which those products are distributed, CryoLife’s growth strategy and its product pipeline.  These statements also include expectations regarding PerClot, including future market growth and related opportunities, and the contemplated U.S. regulatory approval for the product by the end of 2013.  Market growth and the related opportunities for distribution of CryoLife products, including PerClot, is dependent on numerous factors beyond CryoLife’s control, including actions by CryoLife’s competitors, development of new, competing products in the field, and customer demand.  CryoLife’s expectations regarding future growth in the markets in which it operates are estimates and there is no guarantee that actual market growth will correlate with CryoLife’s estimates.  CryoLife’s growth strategy, including decisions regarding complementary products and acquisitions, is subject to overall economic conditions and CryoLife’s general business needs at the time, and, as such, CryoLife’s current growth strategy may not provide the expected results and is subject to change.  With respect to the products in CryoLife’s pipeline, there is no guarantee that the products will gain the necessary regulatory approvals when expected, if at all, and market acceptance of each of the products in the pipeline may take longer than expected.  CryoLife’s ability to successfully distribute PerClot is dependent upon its ability to market the product and encourage customers and distributors to purchase the product.  There is no guarantee that the FDA will approve PerClot for distribution in the U.S. by the end of 2013, if at all.  FDA approvals are dependent upon a number of factors, many of which are outside CryoLife’s control, including successful clinical trial results, and discretionary decisions made by the FDA personnel.  Any number of factors could delay clinical trial conduct and analysis and result in delays in the approval process.  Risks and uncertainties related to the transaction with Cardiogenesis also include uncertainties as to the timing of the tender offer and merger, uncertainties as to how many of the Cardiogenesis shareholders will tender their stock in the offer, the risk that competing offers will be made, the possibility that various closing conditions for the transaction may not be satisfied or waived, including that a governmental entity may prohibit or delay the transaction, and the effects of disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers, business partners or governmental entities.  Furthermore, CryoLife’s ability to fully realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction with Cardiogenesis may be materially adversely impacted if the integration of Cardiogenesis’ business with CryoLife is slower than expected or unsuccessful, or if the transaction and subsequent efforts to integrate Cardiogenesis’s business with CryoLife distracts CryoLife’s management team from the other facets of CryoLife’s business.  Also, estimates regarding the anticipated markets addressed by Cardiogenesis products may not prove to be accurate, as the assumptions are based on a variety of inputs beyond the control of CryoLife, including anticipated cardiac patient populations, and market demand for Cardiogenesis products is subject to the changing preferences of physicians and patients and will be influenced by various economic indicators.  The addition of stem cells to the TMR surgical procedures may not yield significantly better clinical outcomes and even positive clinical outcomes may prove too costly to implement.  CryoLife's business is also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.  These risks and uncertainties include that CryoLife is significantly dependent on its revenues from BioGlue and are subject to a variety of risks affecting this product, including that a German Patent Court has nullified CryoLife’s main BioGlue patent in Germany, and if the ruling
