Dear John,

This letter will confirm our discussions of last Thursday, April 15, in which
Medtronic Sofamor Danek consents to amending those certain agreements with
Vista to change its spinal application distribution rights for the Vista
visualization systems from exclusive to non-exclusive. While our in-house
counsel is preparing the written amendment to the distribution agreement
consistent with this change, you should feel free to negotiate and enter into
other non-exclusive agreements for these rights as you see fit.

Please let me know if you have any questions on this consent. We will send
you the amendment shortly.

Sincerely,

/s/ Bob Paulson
