ITEM 2.05. COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES.

On June 28, 2005, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (the "Company")
began implementing the reorganization of its European manufacturing and
distribution operations by entering into an agreement with the labor
representatives of employees affected by the closing of the facility operated by
the Company's subsidiary Integra ME GmbH in Tuttlingen, Germany.

Under the agreement, the Company agreed to the funding of a severance plan to
compensate the affected employees at the facility being closed. The total
payments under the plan will be approximately $1 million.

The Company will continue discussions of further potential restructurings of its
European operations with local labor representatives. The costs of these
activities will depend upon various considerations, including the number of
employees to be terminated and their locations, the availability of other jobs
within the Company, and the level of severance benefits

The Company may incur significant costs over the remainder of this year in
connection with employee severance, legal, and other items related to the
restructuring. Based on management's assessment, the Company estimates that the
costs of its European restructuring activities (including those discussed above)
will not exceed $8 million in the aggregate. The Company currently expects these
charges to occur over the remainder of 2005.

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the Company's ability to
complete the restructuring of its manufacturing and distribution operations and
the related costs. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
predicted or expected results. The Company's ability to complete the
restructuring of its manufacturing and distribution operations may affect its
operating income. In addition, the economic, competitive, governmental,
technological and other factors identified under the heading "Factors That May
Affect Our Future Performance" included in the Business section of the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and information
contained in subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
could affect actual results.
