                                 200,000 UNITS
    
 
                               ORGANOGENESIS INC.
 
            EACH UNIT CONSISTING OF FIVE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND
   
      ONE REDEEMABLE COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT, SUBJECT TO ADJUSTMENT
    
                            ------------------------
   
    Each Unit consists of five shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share
("Common Stock"), and, except as described below, one Redeemable Common Stock
Purchase Warrant ("Unit Warrant") of Organogenesis Inc. (the "Company"). Each
Unit Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a
price (the "Warrant Exercise Price") of $         per share (expected to be
equal to 150% of the lower of the Initial Purchase Price or the Adjustment
Price, as such terms are defined below), at any time through                   ,
2000, when the Unit Warrants expire. The Unit Warrants are non-transferable and,
subject to certain exceptions, may be redeemed by the Company at any time after
      , 1997 upon 30 days written notice at a price of $.01 per Unit Warrant, if
the average last sale prices of the Common Stock (as reported by the American
Stock Exchange) exceeds $         per share (expected to be equal to 150% of the
Warrant Exercise Price) for any period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days
ending within thirty (30) days of the notice of redemption. See "Description of
Warrants." The Units are immediately separable into shares of Common Stock and
Unit Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock will be separately transferable.
    
 
   
    The Company reserves the right to issue up to an additional 30,000 Units to
investors in this offering. Unless noted, all information provided in this
Prospectus assumes no sale of such additional Units.
    
 
   
    The Unit Warrant included in each Unit is subject to adjustment in the event
that the Adjustment Price exceeds the Initial Purchase Price by an amount equal
to or greater than $2.00 per share, in which event each Unit shall include a
Unit Warrant to purchase one-half share of Common Stock instead of one share of
Common Stock. As used in this Prospectus, the term "Adjustment Price" means an
amount equal to 97% of the average of the daily volume weighted average trade
price (as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets News and rounded to three
decimal places) for the Company's Common Stock during a period beginning on the
day after an investment agreement is signed and ending 20 business days later
and the term "Initial Purchase Price" means the Per Unit Price to the Public set
forth in the table below divided by five (5).
    
 
   
    In addition, in the event that the Adjustment Price is lower than the
Initial Purchase Price, the Company will issue a number of Common Stock
Adjustment Purchase Warrants (the "Adjustment Warrants") to each investor equal
to the Initial Purchase Price less the Adjustment Price multiplied by the number
of shares of Common Stock included in the Units purchased by such investor, and
divided by the Adjustment Price. The exercise price of the Adjustment Warrants
will be $.01 per share of Common Stock and the Warrants will be exercisable by
the holder thereof for a period beginning 65 days from the date that the holder
gives notice to the Company and ending 155 days after such notice and will
expire at the end of this period. The Adjustment Warrants will expire on the
third anniversary of their issuance if they have not previously expired.
    
 
   
    This Prospectus also relates to the issuance by the Company of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of the Unit Warrants and the Adjustment Warrants.
    
 
   
    The Units offered hereby are being sold by the Company and the Common Stock
included in the Units and the Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Unit
Warrants and the Adjustment Warrants will be issued by the Company. See "Plan of
Distribution." The final price of the Units and the exercise price of the Common
Stock underlying the Unit Warrants will be determined by negotiations between
the Company and prospective purchasers of the Units. The Common Stock of the
Company is listed on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "ORG". On June
28, 1995, the last reported sale price for the Common Stock as reported by the
American Stock Exchange was $14 1/2. See "Common Stock Price Range."
    
 
   
     THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. SEE "RISK
FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 6 OF THIS PROSPECTUS.

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
     The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information, including "Risk Factors," appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus or
incorporated herein by reference. As used herein, "Organogenesis" or the
"Company" refers to Organogenesis Inc. and its subsidiaries.
 
                                  THE COMPANY
 
     Organogenesis designs, develops and manufactures innovative medical
therapeutics using living human cells and natural connective tissue components.
Organogenesis was the first company founded to develop and commercialize
therapies based on innovations in tissue engineering, a relatively new
discipline focused on developing specialized biomaterials and cellular
constructs to assist, repair, regenerate, or replace diseased or damaged tissue.
An understanding of the biology of cells, the structure and function of the
extracellular matrix, and the critical interactions between the two is needed to
fully exploit the potential of tissue engineering. The Company's leadership in
combining theses technologies has resulted in a wide variety of product
opportunities, including GRAFTSKIN, the Company's full-thickness skin
replacement product, which has completed enrollment of over 500 patients in
pivotal clinical trials.
 
     The Company is developing its technology in the following areas: wound
care, cardiovascular, general surgery, urology and orthopedics. GRAFTSKIN is
intended to provide immediate wound closure while effectively promoting the
establishment of new skin tissue. GRAFTSKIN is currently in clinical trials for
chronic venous ulcers, wounds resulting from dermatological surgery, and burns.
Interim results appear to demonstrate GRAFTSKIN's safety, effectiveness over
standard care, improvement in patient quality of life, and excellent cosmetic
results. On June 5, 1995, the Company announced that it had received notice from
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") that its GRAFTSKIN Premarket
Approval ("PMA") application to be submitted will receive expedited review. The
Company expects to submit a PMA application for GRAFTSKIN to the FDA during
1995.
 
     Other product candidates which are intended to enable the recipient's (or
host's) body to form a fully functional replacement for diseased or damaged
tissue are in various stages of preclinical development. These products, such as
the GRAFTARTERY small diameter vascular graft, are being developed as
"off-the-shelf" repair or replacement material for applications where no graft
material is currently available, or where an "off-the-shelf" implant would
obviate the need to obtain autologous repair material (material from another
part of the host's body). The Company's product candidates are intended to
provide highly efficacious, cost-effective treatment for poorly managed diseases
and disorders.
 
     Scientists at Organogenesis have expertise in a broad range of disciplines,
including cell biology, immunology, tissue cryopreservation, matrix
biochemistry, and vascular biology. In addition to the Company's core scientific
expertise, the Company has established capabilities in process development and
manufacturing, preclinical testing, clinical development, and regulatory
affairs.
 
     Organogenesis' strategy is to form collaborations with larger
pharmaceutical and medical device companies with strategic interests in the
Company's product development areas, in exchange for marketing rights to the
Company's products. The Company has entered into such collaborations with Biomet
Inc. for the development of orthopedic implants, with Toyobo Ltd. for the
Company's in vitro testing kits in Japan, and has signed a letter of intent with
SCIMED Life Systems Inc. to enter into an agreement to collaboratively develop
and commercialize collagen-coated endovascular stents. As a result of the merger
between SCIMED and Boston Scientific Corporation, SCIMED management is analyzing
the collaborative program with the Company, and there can be no assurance that
the Company and SCIMED will enter into a definitive agreement.
 
     The Company was organized as a Delaware corporation in 1985. The Company's
executive offices are located at 150 Dan Road, Canton, Massachusetts 02021 and
its telephone number is (617) 575-0775.

                           each Unit is subject to adjustment in the event that the
                           Adjustment Price exceeds the Initial Purchase Price by an amount
                           equal to or greater than $2.00 per share, in which event each Unit
                           shall include a Unit Warrant to purchase one-half of a share of
                           Common Stock instead of one share of Common Stock. The Unit
                           Warrants are nontransferable and, subject to certain exceptions,
                           may be redeemed by the Company at any time after                ,
                           1997 upon 30 days written notice at a price of $.01 per Warrant if
                           the average of the last sale prices of the Common Stock (as
                           reported by the American Stock Exchange) exceeds $     per share
                           (expected to be equal to 150% of the Warrant Exercise Price) for
                           any period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending within
                           thirty days of the notice of redemption. The shares of Common
                           Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Unit Warrants are issuable
                           upon the Company's receipt of a subscription form executed by the
                           holder of the Unit Warrants, and the payment to the Company of the
                           aggregate exercise price of the shares of Common Stock purchased.
                           In addition, in the event that the Adjustment Price is lower than
                           the Initial Purchase Price, the Company will issue a number of
                           Adjustment Warrants to each investor equal to the Initial Purchase
                           Price less the Adjustment Price multiplied by the number of shares
                           of Common Stock included in the Units purchased by such investor,
                           and divided by the Adjustment Price. The exercise price of the
                           Adjustment Warrants will be $.01 per share of Common Stock and the
                           Warrants will be exercisable by the holder thereof for a period
                           beginning 65 days from the date that the holder gives notice to
                           the Company and ending 155 days after such notice and will expire
                           at the end of this period. The Adjustment Warrants will expire on
                           the third anniversary of their issuance if they have not
                           previously expired. See "Description of Warrants."

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
     In evaluating the Company's business, prospective investors should
carefully consider the following factors, in addition to the other information
contained in this Prospectus.
 
UNCERTAINTY OF SUCCESSFUL COMMERCIALIZATION
 
     The Company has not begun to market or generate revenues from the
commercialization of products. The products under development by the Company
will require significant additional research and development efforts, including
extensive clinical testing and regulatory approval, prior to commercial use. The
Company's potential products are subject to the risks of failure inherent in the
development of pharmaceutical products based on new technologies. These risks
include the possibilities that the Company's therapeutic approach will not be
successful; that any or all of the Company's potential products will be found to
be unsafe, ineffective, toxic or otherwise fail to meet applicable regulatory
standards or receive necessary regulatory clearances; that the potential
products, if safe and effective, will be difficult to develop into commercially
viable products, to manufacture on a large scale, be uneconomical to market, or
fail to obtain acceptance by the medical community; that proprietary rights of
third parties will preclude the Company from marketing such products; or that
third parties will market superior or equivalent products.
 
FUTURE CAPITAL NEEDS; UNCERTAINTY OF ADDITIONAL FUNDING
 
   
     The Company will require substantial additional funds in order to continue
its research and development programs, preclinical and clinical testing of its
product candidates and to conduct full scale manufacturing and marketing of any
pharmaceutical products that may be developed. The Company's capital
requirements depend on numerous factors, including but not limited to the
progress of its research and development programs, the progress of preclinical
and clinical testing, the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory
approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent
claims and other intellectual property rights, competing technological and
market developments, changes in the Company's existing research relationships,
the ability of the Company to establish collaborative arrangements, the
development of commercialization activities and arrangements, and the purchase
of additional facilities and capital equipment. Based upon its current plans,
the Company believes that the net proceeds (assuming net proceeds of at least
$13 million) of this offering, together with existing capital resources and
income earned on investment capital will be sufficient to fund its operations at
least through the third quarter of 1996. There can be no assurance, however,
that changes in the Company's research and development plans or other events
affecting the Company's operations will not result in accelerated or unexpected
expenditures.
    
 
     Thereafter, the Company will need to raise substantial additional capital
to fund its operations. The Company intends to seek such additional funding
through public or private financings or collaborative or other arrangements with
corporate partners. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities,
further dilution to existing stockholders will result and future investors may
be granted rights superior to those of existing stockholders. There can be no
assurance, however, that additional financing will be available from any of
these sources, or if available, will be available on acceptable or affordable
terms. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to
delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of its research and
development programs or to obtain funds through entering into arrangements with
collaborative partners or others that may require the Company to issue
additional equity or to relinquish rights to certain technologies or product
candidates that the Company would not otherwise issue or relinquish.
 
HISTORY OF LOSSES AND ACCUMULATED DEFICIT
 
     The Company experienced net losses of $6.2 million, $9.9 million and $10.4
million for the years ended December 31, 1992, 1993 and 1994, respectively. The
Company's accumulated deficit at March 31, 1995 was $49.9 million. The Company
expects to incur additional losses as its research, development and clinical
trial programs continue to expand. The Company's ability to achieve a profitable
level of operations is dependent on successfully completing the development of
its products, obtaining required regulatory approvals, and manufacturing of its
products. Accordingly, the extent of future losses and the time required to
achieve profitability is highly uncertain. There can be no assurance that the
Company will achieve a profitable level of operations.
 
                                        6
<PAGE>   8
 
RETENTION OF KEY PERSONNEL
 
     Because of the specialized nature of the Company's business, the Company's
success will depend, in large part, on its continued ability to attract and
retain highly qualified scientific and business personnel and on its ability to
develop and maintain relationships with leading research institutions. The
competition for those relationships and for experienced scientists and
management personnel that exists among the numerous biotechnology,
pharmaceutical and healthcare companies, universities and nonprofit research
institutions is intense.
 
PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
 
     The Company's success will depend, in part, upon its ability to develop
patentable products and technologies and obtain patent protection for its
products and technologies both in the United States and other countries. There
can be no assurance that patent applications owned or licensed by the Company
will issue as patents, that patent protection will be secured for any particular
technology, or that, if issued, such patents will be valid or that they will
provide the Company with meaningful protection against competitors or with a
competitive advantage. There can be no assurance that patents will not be
challenged or designed around by others. The Company could incur substantial
costs in proceedings before the United States Patent Office, including
interference proceedings. These proceedings could also result in adverse
decisions as to the patentability of the Company's licensed or assigned
inventions. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company will not
infringe upon prior or future patents owned by others, that the Company will not
need to acquire licenses under patents belonging to others for technology
potentially useful or necessary to the Company, or that such licenses will be
available to the Company, if at all, on terms acceptable to the Company.
Moreover, there can be no assurance that any patent issued to or licensed by the
Company will not be infringed by others. Lastly, there can be no assurance that
third parties will not bring suit against the Company for patent infringement or
for declaratory judgment to have the patents owned or licensed by the Company
declared invalid. The Company also relies on trade secrets and other unpatented
proprietary technology. No assurance can be given that the Company can
meaningfully protect its rights in such unpatented technology or that others
will not independently develop substantially equivalent products and processes
or otherwise gain access to the Company's technology.
 
     The Company seeks to protect its trade secrets and proprietary know-how, in
part, through confidentiality agreements with its employees, consultants,
advisors and collaborators. There can be no assurance that these agreements will
not be violated by the other parties, that the Company will have adequate
remedies for any breach, or that the Company's trade secrets will not otherwise
become known or be independently developed by competitors. The Company has
relationships with a number of academic consultants who are employed by
organizations other than the Company. Accordingly, the Company has limited
control over their activities and can expect only limited amounts of their time
to be dedicated to the Company's activities. These persons may have consulting,
employment or advisory arrangements with other entities that may conflict with
or compete with their obligations to the Company. Consultants generally sign
agreements which provide for confidentiality of the Company's proprietary
information and results of studies. However, there can be no assurance that the
Company will, in connection with every relationship, be able to maintain the
confidentiality of the Company's technology, dissemination of which could have a
materially adverse effect on the Company's business. To the extent that the
Company's scientific consultants develop inventions or processes independently
that may be applicable to the Company's proposed products, disputes may arise as
to the ownership of the proprietary rights to such information. Such inventions
or processes will not necessarily become the property of the Company, but may
remain the property of such persons or their full-time employers. The Company
could be required to make payments to the owners of such inventions or
processes, either in the form of cash, equity or a combination thereof. In
addition, protracted and costly litigation may be necessary to enforce and
determine the scope and validity of the Company's proprietary rights.
 
COMPETITION
 
     The Company is engaged in the rapidly evolving and competitive field of
tissue engineering. Many major pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical product
companies in the United States and abroad are seeking to
 
                                        7
<PAGE>   9
 
develop competitive products for the treatment of skin wounds and organ
equivalent products. Competition from these companies and others is intense and
is expected to increase. Many of these companies have substantially greater
capital resources, research and development staffs, facilities and experience in
the marketing and distribution of products than the Company. In addition,
competitive companies are working on alternate approaches to many of the
diseases targeted by the Company.
 
     The Company is currently aware of other companies which have or are
planning to commercialize products intended to serve as skin replacements, in
addition to several companies that concentrate on skin repair devices. The
Company's principal competitors in the wound care products market include
Johnson & Johnson, Kendall, Smith & Nephew, Advanced Tissue Sciences and Genzyme
Tissue Repair. The Company believes that its competitive position will be based
on its ability to create and maintain scientifically advanced technology and
proprietary products and processes, obtain required government approvals on a
timely basis, manufacture its products on a cost-effective basis and
successfully market its products. There can be no assurance that the Company's
products under development will be able to compete successfully with existing
products or products under development by other companies, universities and
other institutions or that they will attain regulatory approval in the United
States or elsewhere.
 
MANUFACTURING AND SOURCES OF SUPPLY
 
     The Company manufactures GRAFTSKIN for use in its clinical trials at its
Canton, Massachusetts facility and intends to manufacture GRAFTSKIN for its
commercial sale at the facility. Among the fundamental raw materials needed to
fabricate GRAFTSKIN is a small number of keratinocytes and fibroblasts. In order
for products of the Company made with these initial cells to be used as a
replacement for human skin, it is critical that the cells be disease-free. The
Company has experienced no difficulty obtaining cells, and has established a
mechanism for obtaining screened cells from donors certified by blood testing to
be free of the "HIV" or "AIDS" virus and other pathogens.
 
     The major additional material required to produce the Company's products is
collagen, a protein ordinarily obtained from cows or pigs by commercial
suppliers. The Company determined that collagen provided by the usual commercial
sources is not suitable for the Company's purposes. Accordingly, the Company has
developed a proprietary method of producing its own collagen. This process
yields collagen which the Company believes is superior in quality and strength
to collagen available from commercial sources and which provides the Company
with a continuous, high-quality source of supply.
 
     The other raw materials required in the production of the Company's
products are primarily chemical nutrients, which are readily available from a
number of commercial sources.
 
     The process of manufacturing the Company's products is complex, requiring
strict adherence to manufacturing protocols. Organogenesis is producing
GRAFTSKIN on a pilot-scale adherence to manufacturing protocols. Organogenesis
is producing GRAFTSKIN on a pilot-scale basis in quantities sufficient to meet
its clinical testing needs, and the Company believes that it can produce
increased quantities as needed. However, the transition from pilot-scale
manufacturing to large-scale production of the Company's products is difficult,
and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to make this
transition successfully. As the Company undertakes the manufacture of additional
products on a commercial basis, the Company will be required to construct a
manufacturing facility in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices
requirements.
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
     The Company's present and proposed activities are subject to government
regulation in the United States and other countries. In order to clinically
test, produce and market medical devices for human use, the Company must satisfy
mandatory procedures and safety and efficacy requirements established by the FDA
and comparable state and foreign regulatory agencies. Typically, such rules
require that products be approved by the government agency as safe and effective
for their intended use prior to being marketed. The approval process is
expensive, time-consuming and subject to unanticipated delays, and no assurance
can be given that any agency will grant its approval.
 
                                        8
<PAGE>   10
 
     Testing is necessary to determine safety and efficacy before a submission
may be filed with the FDA to obtain authorization to market regulated products.
In addition, the FDA imposes various requirements on manufacturers and sellers
of products under its jurisdiction, such as labeling, good manufacturing
practices, record keeping and reporting requirements. The FDA also may require
post-marketing testing and surveillance programs to monitor a product's effects.
 
     If the Company develops any product to a point where FDA authorization
becomes required, there can be no assurance that the appropriate authorization
will be granted, that the process to obtain such authorization will not be
excessively expensive or lengthy, or that the Company will have sufficient funds
to pursue such approvals. Moreover, the failure to receive requisite
authorization for the Company's products or processes when and if developed or
significant delays in obtaining such authorization would prevent the Company
from commercializing its products as anticipated and may have a materially
adverse effect on the business of the Company.
 
     Additional government regulation may be established that could prevent or
delay regulatory approval of the Company's product candidates. Delays in
obtaining regulatory approvals would adversely affect the marketing of any
products developed by the Company and the Company's ability to receive product
revenues or royalties. If regulatory approval of a potential product is granted,
such approval may include significant limitations on the indicated uses for
which such product may be marketed.
 
     Even if initial regulatory approvals for the Company's product candidates
are obtained, the Company, its products and its manufacturing facilities are
subject to continual review and periodic inspection. The regulatory standards
for manufacturing are applied stringently by the FDA. Discovery of previously
unknown problems with a product, manufacturer or facility may result in
restrictions on such product or manufacturer or facility, including warning
letters, fines, suspensions of regulatory approvals, product recalls, operating
restrictions, delays in obtaining new product approvals, withdrawal of the
product from the market, and criminal prosecution. Other violations of FDA
requirements can result in similar penalties.
 
PRODUCT LIABILITY AND AVAILABILITY OF INSURANCE
 
     The Company's business exposes it to potential liability risks that are
inherent in the testing, manufacturing and marketing of medical products. The
use of the Company's product candidates in clinical trials may expose the
Company to product liability claims and possible adverse publicity. These risks
also exist with respect to the Company's product candidates, if any, that
receive regulatory approval for commercial sale. The Company currently has
limited product liability coverage for the clinical research use of its product
candidates. The Company does not have product liability insurance for the
commercial sale of its product candidates but intends to obtain such coverage if
and when its products are commercialized. However, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to obtain additional insurance coverage at
acceptable costs, if at all, or that a product liability claim would not
materially adversely affect the business or financial condition of the Company.
 
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
 
     Medical and biopharmaceutical research and development involves the
controlled use of hazardous materials, such as various radioactive compounds.
The Company is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations
governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of such materials
and certain waste products. Although the Company believes that its safety
procedures for handling and disposing of such materials comply with the
standards prescribed by state and federal regulations, the risk of accidental
contamination or injury from those materials cannot be completely eliminated. In
the event of such an accident, the Company could be held liable for any damages
that result and any such liability could exceed the resources of the Company.
Although the Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects
with applicable environmental laws and regulations and currently does not expect
to make material capital expenditures for environment control facilities in the
near-term, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be required to
incur significant costs to comply with environmental laws and regulations, or
any assurance that the operations, business or assets of the Company will not be
materially adversely affected by current or future environmental laws or
regulations.

UNCERTAINTY OF THIRD-PARTY REIMBURSEMENT
 
     In both domestic and foreign markets, the ability of the Company to
commercialize its product candidates will depend, in part, on the availability
of reimbursement from third-party payors, such as government health
administration authorities, private health insurers and other organizations.
Third-party payors are increasingly challenging the price and cost-effectiveness
of medical products. There can be no assurance that Company-developed products
will be considered cost effective. Significant uncertainty exists as to the
reimbursement status of newly-approved healthcare products. There can be no
assurance that adequate third-party insurance coverage will be available for the
Company to establish and maintain price levels sufficient for realization of an
appropriate return on its investment in developing new therapies. Government and
other third-party payors are increasingly attempting to contain healthcare costs
by limiting both coverage and the level of reimbursement for new therapeutic
products approved for marketing by the FDA and by refusing, in some cases, to
provide any coverage for uses of approved products for disease indications for
which the FDA has not granted marketing approval. If adequate coverage and
reimbursement levels are not provided by government and third-party payors for
uses of the Company's therapeutic products, the market acceptance of these
products would be adversely affected.
 
UNCERTAINTY RELATED TO HEALTH CARE REFORM MEASURES
 
     There have been a number of federal and state proposals during the last few
years to subject the pricing of pharmaceuticals to government control and to
make other changes to the health care system of the United States. It is
uncertain what legislative proposals will be adopted or what actions federal,
state or private payors for health care goods and services may take in response
to any health care reform proposals or legislation. The Company cannot predict
the effect health care reforms may have on its business, and no assurance can be
given that any such reforms will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company.
 
DEPENDENCE ON STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS
 
     The Company has limited experience in sales, marketing and distribution.
The Company will need to develop long-term strategic relationships with
companies that have marketing and sales forces with technical expertise and
distribution capability. To the extent that the Company enters into such
relationships, any revenues received by the Company will depend upon the efforts
of third parties and there can be no assurance that such efforts will be
successful. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to establish
such long-term relationships or that it or its collaborators will be successful
in gaining market acceptance for any products that may be developed by the
Company.
 
STOCK PRICE VOLATILITY
 
   
     The market prices of securities of biotechnology companies have been
volatile. Factors such as announcements of technological innovations, new
commercial products by the Company or its competitors, governmental regulations,
patent or proprietary rights developments, public concern as to safety or other
implications of biotechnology products and market conditions in general may have
a significant impact on the market price of the Common Stock. Between the date
of the Company's initial public offering in December 1986 and June 15, 1995, the
Company's stock has traded at per share prices between $4.25 and $26.50. From
December 31, 1992 until June 28, 1995, the per share price range has been
between $5.50 and $25.25. There can be no assurance that this high level of
volatility will not persist in the future, and that investors in this offering
will not be adversely affected.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
   
     The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 200,000 Units offered
hereby (assuming no exercise of the Unit Warrants) at an assumed price of $65.90
per Unit will be approximately $13,030,000, after deduction of the estimated
expenses associated with the offering.
    
 
     The Company expects to use the net proceeds of this offering for
preclinical and clinical programs, product research and development, working
capital and general corporate purposes.
 
     The proceeds of this offering may also be used in part to acquire
additional rights to technology related to the Company's product development
programs, and to fund additional collaborative arrangements with other companies
and universities when the Company believes such opportunities would enhance its
competitive position or complement the Company's current research programs. The
Company currently does not have any agreements or understandings with respect to
the acquisition of any such additional rights or the funding of such other
arrangements.
 
     The Company expects to use all of the net proceeds of this offering for the
purposes described above and will require substantial additional funds in the
future. The amounts and timing of the Company's expenditures for these purposes
will depend upon a number of factors, including the progress of the Company's
research and development, the scope and results of preclinical studies and
clinical trials, the cost and timing of regulatory approvals, the need for and
availability of third party patent rights, the rate of technological advances,
determinations as to the commercial potential of the Company's products under
development, the status of competitive products and the establishment of
manufacturing capacity. In addition, expenditures will depend on the
establishment of collaborative research arrangements with other companies, the
availability of other financing and other factors.
 
   
     Based upon its current plans, the Company believes that the net proceeds of
this offering (assuming net proceeds of at least $13 million), together with
existing capital resources and income earned on invested capital, will be
sufficient to fund its operations at least through the third quarter of 1996.
However, the Company's requirements may vary depending on numerous factors,
including those described above.
    
 
     Pending application of the proceeds as described above, the Company intends
to invest the net proceeds of this offering primarily in government and
investment grade debt securities. See "Risk Factors -- Future Capital Needs;
Uncertainty of Additional Funding."

                                    DILUTION
 
   
     The following calculations give effect to the sale of the Units offered
hereby at an assumed per Unit price of $65.90 ($13.18 per share based on the 60
day average sales price of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange
through June 28, 1995), after deducting offering expenses payable by the Company
and assuming none of the Warrants are exercised. The net tangible book value of
the Company at March 31, 1995 was $11,074,000, or $1.18 per share. Net tangible
book value per share represents the amount of total tangible assets less total
liabilities divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Based
upon the aforementioned assumptions, the net tangible book value of the Company
at March 31, 1995 would have been $24,104,000, or $2.32 per share. This
represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $1.14 per share
to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of
$10.86 per share to new investors purchasing shares in this offering. The
following table illustrates the per share dilution:

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
  1994 COMPARED TO 1993
 
     Contract revenues during 1994 were $336,000, compared to $375,000 in 1993.
Contract revenues in 1994 were realized by the Company under an agreement with
Biomet, Inc. ("Biomet") for the development of orthopedic implants using the
Company's proprietary dense fibrillar collagen. Contract revenues in 1993 were
realized under agreements with Eli Lilly and Company ("Lilly") relating to the
development of the Company's GRAFTARTERY product and with Biomet. The Company's
collaboration with Lilly ended in July 1993 as described below. No sale of
product occurred in 1994, as compared to $72,000 in 1993. This was due to the
Company's discontinuance of the manufacturing and selling of its Testskin
products. Interest income in 1994 was $660,000 compared to $1,146,000 in 1993.
The decrease in 1994 resulted from less cash available for investment.
 
     Research and development expenses increased to $8,573,000 from $8,117,000
in 1993. The increase was primarily due to higher employment-related costs
resulting from staff additions and data management and statistical services
related to human clinical trials for GRAFTSKIN. Marketing, general and
administrative expenses decreased to $2,864,000 in 1994 from $3,347,000 in 1993,
primarily as a result of lower outside services rendered to the Company. The
Company's net loss for 1994 was $10,441,000, or $1.14 per share, as compared
with a net loss for 1993 of $9,936,000, or $1.09 per share.
 
  1993 COMPARED TO 1992
 
     Contract revenues during 1993 were $375,000, compared to $2,735,000 in
1992. Contract revenues in 1993 were realized by the Company under agreements
with Lilly relating to the development of the Company's GRAFTARTERY product and
with Biomet for the development of orthopedic implants using the Company's
proprietary dense fibrillar collagen. Contract revenue in 1992 was realized
under an agreement with Lilly. In 1992, the Company made certain product
improvements to the GRAFTARTERY, resulting in a delay in achieving a milestone
regarding extended graft patency and a deferral of funding from Lilly. In July
1993, the Company announced its collaboration with Lilly had ended and that it
intended to complete the development effort of the GRAFTARTERY project either
with its own funds or through a potential collaboration with another party. This
resulted in a decline in contract revenues in 1993. TESTSKIN product sales
amounted to $72,000 in 1993, as compared to $508,000 in 1992. In January 1993,
the Company discontinued the manufacture and sale of its TESTSKIN products. This
resulted in a decrease in product sales in 1993. Interest income in 1993 was
$1,146,000, compared to $1,729,000 in 1992. The decrease in 1993 resulted from
less cash available for investment.
 
     Research and development expenses increased to $8,117,000 in 1993 from
$6,949,000 in 1992, primarily as a result of the increased human clinical trials
for GRAFTSKIN and expanded preclinical activities in the development of
GRAFTARTERY and several collagen products. Marketing, general and administrative
expenses decreased to $3,347,000 in 1993 from $3,983,000 in 1992, primarily as a
result of lower marketing costs associated with the discontinuance of the
manufacture and sale of TESTSKIN. The Company's net loss for 1993 was
$9,936,000, or $1.09 per share, as compared with a net loss for 1992 of
$6,230,000, or $.69 per share.
 
  FIRST QUARTER 1995 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER 1994
 
     Contract revenue was $16,900 for the three months ended March 31, 1995, as
compared to $66,000 for the same period in 1994. The contract revenue was
realized under an agreement with Biomet, Inc. for the development of orthopedic
implants using the Company's proprietary dense fibrillar collagen. Interest
income was $139,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to
$176,000 in the comparable period in 1994. The decrease in interest income is
attributable to less cash being available for investment.
 
     Research and development expenses were $2,304,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1995, compared to $1,922,000 during the comparable 1994 period.
The increase was primarily due to higher employment-related costs resulting from
staff additions. General and administrative expenses were $798,000
 
                                       16
<PAGE>   18
 
for the three month period ended March 31, 1995 as compared to $686,000 for the
comparable 1994 period. The increase was primarily due to higher professional
fees.
 
     As a result of the net effect described above, the Company incurred a net
loss of $2,946,000, or $.31 per share, for the three months ended March 31,
1995, as compared with a net loss of $2,366,000, or $.26 per share, for the
comparable 1994 period.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     From inception, the Company has financed its operations through private and
public placements of equity securities, receipt of contract revenues, sale of
products and interest income from investments. At March 31, 1995 and December
31, 1994, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments in the
aggregate of $6,028,000 and $8,871,000, respectively. The Company will continue
to utilize working capital in 1995 related to ongoing research and development
activities, conducting preclinical and clinical trials, enhancement of
proprietary manufacturing technologies and expansion of business development,
general and administrative resources. These activities will require substantial
additional financial resources before the Company can expect to realize revenue
from product sales.
 
     In February 1995, the Company announced it signed a letter of intent to
collaboratively develop and commercialize collagen coated endovascular stents
with SCIMED Life Systems, Inc. ("SCIMED"). Under the proposed agreement, SCIMED
would pay the Company upfront and milestone payments totaling approximately
$11,000,000. The milestone payments would be made upon meeting certain
conditions in the proposed agreement. In addition, SCIMED would fund the related
research and development activities. As a result of the merger between SCIMED
and Boston Scientific Corporation, SCIMED management is analyzing the
collaborative program with the Company, and there can be no assurance that the
Company and SCIMED will enter into a definitive agreement.
 
     The ultimate success of the Company is dependent upon its ability to raise
capital through equity placement, receipt of contract revenue, sale of product,
research and development funding under licensing agreements, royalty and
manufacturing payments and interest income on invested capital. However, the
Company's capital requirements may change depending upon numerous factors,
including progress of the Company's research and development programs; time
required to obtain regulatory approvals; resources the Company devotes to
self-funded projects, proprietary manufacturing methods and advanced
technologies; ability to obtain and retain continued funding from third parties
under collaborative agreements; ability to obtain licensing arrangements; and
the demand for the Company's products if, and when, approved.
 
     While management believes that additional financing composed of equity
investments and funding provided under collaborative agreements will be
available to fund future operations, there can be no assurance that additional
funds will be available when required on terms acceptable to the Company. In
view of the Company's current financial condition, the Company plans to manage
its working capital and expenses conservatively. In the event that the Company
is unable to raise additional capital, the Company has formulated a financial
plan which should allow it to operate at reduced levels through December 31,
1995.

                                    BUSINESS
 
     The Company designs, develops and manufactures innovative medical
therapeutics using living human cells and natural connective tissue components.
The Company's tissue engineered products, such as GRAFTSKIN and GRAFTARTERY, are
designed to promote the establishment and growth of the human body's natural
healing process by promoting the growth of new tissues that maintain, restore or
improve biological function.
 
CORE TECHNOLOGIES
 
     Organogenesis was the first company founded to develop and commercialize
therapies based on innovations in tissue engineering. Tissue engineering is a
relatively new discipline focused on developing specialized biomaterials and
cellular constructs to assist, repair, regenerate, or replace diseased or
damaged organs. An understanding of the biology of cells and the structure and
function of the extracellular matrix, and the critical interactions between the
two, is needed to fully exploit the potential of tissue engineering. Because of
this, Organogenesis continually strives to broaden, develop, and utilize its
expertise in cell and connective tissue sciences.
 
  CELL SCIENCE
 
     The ability to work with and manipulate cells is central to fully realizing
the potential of tissue engineering. Cells are the building blocks of life. They
make up the organs of the body, serving physical, metabolic, and other
specialized functions. Organogenesis' emphasis on the significance of cell
science to tissue engineering has led not only to GRAFTSKIN, but also has
provided valuable experience for the future in such areas as:
 
<TABLE>
    <S>                                           <C>
    -  Cell sourcing                              -  Transplantation immunology
    -  Specialized culture systems and media      -  Cell delivery and therapy design
    -  Human cell bank production                 -  Cryopreservation of complex tissues
    -  Cell safety screening and functional
       testing
</TABLE>
 
     Organogenesis has established significant expertise in the areas of cell
biology, cryopreservation technology, and immunology.
 
     Cell Biology.  Organogenesis has significant expertise in the science of
three-dimensional organotypic cell culture -- the ability to produce living
cultures of cells with the properties and functions typical of the organ from
which they were derived. For example, GRAFTSKIN is a three-dimensional,
organotypic skin product. This and other models (cornea) have provided important
scientific findings on cell-to-cell interaction, cell and matrix interaction,
and extracellular matrix production.
 
     By employing its cell growth and organotypic culture technologies,
Organogenesis has gained important knowledge of cell regulatory mechanisms and
factors controlling cell growth and tissue formation which will be broadly
applicable to many cell types. This expertise in cell biology should enable
Organogenesis to expand further into other cellular product opportunities.
 
     Cryopreservation Technology.  Organogenesis has also made major advances to
the state-of-the-art of cryopreservation technology -- the ability to freeze
materials such as complex tissues which contain living cells and then restore
the material to original temperature without significant loss of cell
functionality. Research to date on a variety of tissues demonstrates that
Organogenesis' proprietary method maintains over 90% cell viability.
Cryopreservation enhances the world-wide marketing and distribution potential of
GRAFTSKIN. It also has implications for future use in an array of living cell
systems.
 
     Immunology.  Immunology plays a critical role in tissue engineering both in
determining the body's reaction to a biomaterial and assisting in the transfer
of human cells between individuals (allogeneic cells). Organogenesis has a
strong in-house immunology department which supports both safety evaluation of
its products and new product development.
 
                                       18
<PAGE>   20
 
     The ability to transplant cells from one individual to another is
particularly critical to the development and commercialization of
"off-the-shelf" tissues. For example, the cells used in GRAFTSKIN are derived
from infant foreskin tissue that would normally be discarded. Using proprietary
cell culture technology, one postage stamp-sized piece of foreskin can yield
approximately four acres of GRAFTSKIN tissue.
 
     Immunological screening of GRAFTSKIN recipients also shows no evidence of
immune response to the cell types used, indicating that allogeneic keratinocyte
and fibroblast cells can be used safely and effectively. These findings
represent an important step for the clinical validation of the GRAFTSKIN
technology. Such studies also provide critical evidence to support the general
concept of the immune compatibility of allogeneic cells and are expected to
positively impact the future of cell therapy, transplantation, and other areas
of tissue engineering.
 
  CONNECTIVE TISSUE SCIENCES
 
     Recognizing the importance of the extracellular matrix to cell growth and
differentiation, the Connective Tissue Sciences group also was established to
develop cell compatible collagen for the living tissue equivalent program.
 
     Through this group, Organogenesis has developed proprietary technology
relating to the extracellular matrix, including technology enabling it to
produce an array of cell compatible collagen products. Organogenesis' collagen
has been shown to support cell growth and interaction in two very different
types of settings:
 
        - When cells are added to the collagen in vitro, Organogenesis' collagen
          supports cell growth, differentiation and interaction, allowing the
          development of products with the physical and biochemical cell
          functions of living organs and tissues. GRAFTSKIN is an example of
          this.
 
        - When the collagen alone is implanted in vivo, Organogenesis' collagen
          helps foster and direct the ingrowth of host cells and blood vessels.
          Over time, the recipient's body gradually replaces the implant's
          collagen with its own tissue to form a fully functional analog of the
          missing tissue using the implant as a guide. For example, when
          Organogenesis' collagen constructs (e.g. replacement ligaments or
          arteries) were implanted in animal models, the ingrowth of host cells
          and blood vessels over time resulted in host formation of its own
          fully functional replacement tissue.
 
     Additionally, Organogenesis can produce cell compatible collagen in a range
of forms suitable for a variety of tissue engineering applications. For
applications requiring strong, cell compatible constructs, Organogenesis has
developed dense fibrillar collagen ("DFC"), which can be made in a variety of
forms, including sheets, tubes and threads. Possible uses of the DFC constructs
range from cell therapy applications (e.g. cell delivery) to use as a matrix
scaffold for host cell ingrowth and replacement (e.g. replacement ligaments) to
being a component of a medical device or implant (e.g. the luminal layer of an
arterial graft).
 
PRODUCTS
 
     The Company is using its technology in the following areas: wound care,
cardiovascular, general surgery, urology and orthopedics. The Company seeks to
design, develop and manufacture products, derived from proprietary technology
and manufacturing processes, to be used as treatments in these areas.
 
  WOUND CARE PRODUCTS
 
     In the field of Wound Care, the Company is pursuing research and
development of products to be used in the treatment of skin wounds. These
include chronic wounds (such as venous stasis ulcers, diabetic ulcers and
pressure sores), wounds created by dermatological surgery and burn wounds.
 
  GRAFTSKIN
 
     The Company's bilayered skin replacement product is being developed for the
Wound Care field under the tradename GRAFTSKIN. GRAFTSKIN is intended to provide
immediate closure of the wound resulting in rapid healing. GRAFTSKIN is a
full-thickness, living skin equivalent. It consists of two layers, similar to
actual skin: a lower dermal layer and an upper epidermal layer. The Company
creates both layers with living
 
                                       19
<PAGE>   21
 
human cells. The dermal equivalent is constructed from matrix proteins and human
dermal fibroblasts. It is then seeded with selected living human epidermal
cells. These cells grow over the dermal layer forming a fully differentiated
epidermis which has a skin-like barrier function. When human skin is used as a
graft in the treatment of wounds, it is intended to provide immediate wound
closure, act as a barrier to infection, supply growth factors and matrix
components involved in normal wound healing, and nourish the underlying and
surrounding tissue.
 
     The Company's proprietary technology for the manufacture of GRAFTSKIN uses
cultured human cells and the collagen that normally surrounds cells to produce a
living skin equivalent. In the first step of the production of GRAFTSKIN, human
tissue is obtained from donated foreskin of newborn male infants whose mothers
have been pre-screened with an extensive protocol for the absence of pathogens.
The donor tissue is then quarantined, further screened, and dissociated to
obtain two cell types: keratinocytes and fibroblasts. The mixture of human
dermal fibroblasts and collagen develops into the first layer of the skin, the
dermal equivalent. After development of the dermis, a suspension of human
epidermal cells called keratinocytes is seeded onto the dermal layer. Through
further culturing techniques, the keratinocytes differentiate into an epidermis
complete with a stratum corneum.
 
     Collagen is the most abundant protein found in the human body and is the
major matrix protein used in the development of GRAFTSKIN. Using proprietary
techniques of extraction and purification, the Company supplies its own high
quality collagen for research and commercial applications.
 
     Like human skin grafts, GRAFTSKIN is multi-functional and contains many
components that can influence the wound healing process. GRAFTSKIN is composed
of four important elements found in skin: extracellular matrix, dermal
fibroblasts, epidermal keratinocytes and stratum corneum. These elements can
affect the wound in different, but related ways. More importantly, they can act
synergistically as they would in human skin. GRAFTSKIN interacts with the wound
bed in a way that provides flexibility of response and maximizes the chance for
successful healing. Therefore, the Company believes that GRAFTSKIN, as a living
"full-thickness" skin tissue, is able to achieve biological wound closure while
effectively promoting the establishment of new skin tissue.
 
     Patient enrollment in the GRAFTSKIN clinical trials to test its safety and
efficacy as a treatment for chronic venous ulcers, wounds resulting from
dermatological surgery and burns has been completed. The data is being analyzed
and compiled. The regulatory status of GRAFTSKIN is as follows: In 1989, the FDA
granted the Company an IDE for clinical testing of GRAFTSKIN on burn patients.
In 1992, the FDA granted the Company IDE Supplements for clinical testing of
GRAFTSKIN for the treatment of chronic skin ulcers and clean excision wounds.
Discussions with the FDA on the clinical data were held on March 29, 1995. On
June 5, 1995, the Company announced that it had received notice from the FDA
that its GRAFTSKIN PMA application for GRAFTSKIN to be submitted will receive
expedited review. The Company intends to file a PMA application during 1995.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company will obtain the approvals
needed to market GRAFTSKIN or that GRAFTSKIN will be successfully
commercialized.
 
     Venous Ulcers.  Venous ulcers occur when inadequate blood flow from the
lower extremities of the body leads to blood pooling and tissue breakdown. These
ulcers are painful and very difficult to treat. There are an estimated 900,000
to 1.5 million venous ulcer patients in the United States alone.
 
     Human clinical trials of GRAFTSKIN for venous ulcers, conducted under an
Investigational Device Exemption ("IDE") Supplement from the FDA, were performed
at fifteen centers. The IDE Supplement allows the participation of up to 300
patients in these clinical trials. During 1994, the Company completed enrollment
in its 300 patient pivotal trial. The Company expects to submit a Premarket
Approval ("PMA") application with the FDA during 1995 using data from the venous
ulcer trial as well as from studies in dermatological surgery and burn wounds.
 
     Dermatological Surgery.  GRAFTSKIN is also being developed for use in the
treatment of wounds created by dermatological surgery, such as removal of skin
cancers. These wounds are sometimes treated using the patient's skin as a graft,
necessitating a second wound site and thus increasing procedure cost and
morbidity. Today, 250,000 of these dermatological procedures are performed
annually in the United States.
 
                                       20
<PAGE>   22
 
The Company has completed enrollment for a pivotal trial in this indication,
involving more than 100 patients at eight centers throughout the United States.
Clinical results are being compiled to determine whether GRAFTSKIN serves as an
effective biological wound dressing by providing immediate wound closure and
accelerated healing when compared to wounds left to heal without grafting. Both
graft take and improved cosmetic appearance have been observed in patients.
 
     Burn Wounds.  Another clinical indication for GRAFTSKIN is for the use in
the treatment of burn wounds. As of March 31, 1995, Organogenesis has enrolled
over 75 patients at six centers for this indication.
 
     In burn surgery patients, effectiveness evaluations suggest that meshed
GRAFTSKIN placed over meshed autograft (meshed patient skin) functions as a skin
replacement. This combination approach seems to improve the cosmetic outcome and
may decrease the number of surgical procedures required, thereby decreasing the
time patients remain in the hospital.
 
MATRIX SCAFFOLD PRODUCTS
 
     The cell compatibility and strength of Organogenesis' collagen products
make them well-suited for applications requiring an implant which can serve not
only the immediate physical function, but also can foster and direct the
ingrowth of host cells and blood vessels -- the process that enables the host to
form a fully functional replacement for the original tissue using the implant as
a scaffold. Currently, many surgical procedures require obtaining patient tissue
from elsewhere in the body (autologous material) for use as the repair material
(e.g., a graft or a patch). Harvesting autologous material creates the need for
an additional invasive procedure, thereby increasing procedure cost, duration,
and morbidity. Synthetic implants, primarily plastics, have been developed by
other companies to provide an "off-the-shelf" alternative; however, synthetics
are incapable of achieving host integration and perform poorly in many
applications. Organogenesis' cell-compatible collagen can be developed into
"off-the-shelf" implants which are intended to remodel into host tissue at least
as well as autologous material. Organogenesis has several "matrix scaffold"
implant products in development for the cardiovascular, general surgical,
urological and orthopedic markets.
 
  CARDIOVASCULAR PRODUCTS
 
     The Company has developed the GRAFTARTERY using its collagen technology.
The GRAFTARTERY is a 4mm diameter graft intended to function as an arterial
replacement which gradually is replaced by the patient's own tissue, resulting
in an artery which closely mimics the natural vessel.
 
     Organogenesis is developing GRAFTARTERY for use in small diameter artery
grafting procedures, such as coronary artery bypass graft ("CABG") procedures
and below the knee surgical revascularizations for peripheral vascular disease.
Almost 300,000 CABG procedures and 175,000 surgical revascularizations for
peripheral vascular disease are performed annually in the U.S. alone. An average
of 3.5 grafts are required per CABG procedure. While one of these grafts can
generally be made using the internal mammary artery in the chest, the other
bypasses require graft material be retrieved from elsewhere in the body.
Usually, an autologous saphenous vein is taken from the patient's lower limb for
use as graft material. However, saphenous vein is often unavailable or is of
insufficient quality.
 
     GRAFTARTERY has been engineered to provide the flexibility,
host-integration, and handling characteristics of the saphenous vein. Results
from preclinical studies indicate that GRAFTARTERY is achieving the desired
non-thrombogenicity, patency, and host integration both short and long-term. The
results of this program have led Organogenesis to explore endovascular
applications for its technology. An example of this is utilizing collagen to
enhance the performance of metal stents used in endovascular procedures such as
balloon angioplasties. This finding has led to the signing of a letter of intent
in February 1995 to collaboratively develop and commercialize collagen coated
endovascular stents with SCIMED Life Systems, Inc.
 
  GENERAL SURGICAL PRODUCTS
 
     The Company believes that the properties of Organogenesis' collagen fits
well with the surgical need for patches, fillers, supports, connectors and
replacements. The Company currently has two products in preclinical trial for
the surgical market: a surgical repair patch and a pericardial patch.
 
                                       21
<PAGE>   23
 
     The surgical patch is being developed for use in the reinforcement of
weakened soft tissue or the repair of body wall defects such as those associated
with hernias, trauma and surgery. The market opportunity for this patch is
substantial, as there are over 600,000 hernia repair procedures performed each
year in the U.S. alone. Preliminary evaluation of the surgical repair patch has
shown that it integrated into the body and that "patched" surgically-created
defects healed in a manner which resulted in a mechanically stable body wall.
 
     Similarly, the pericardial patch is being developed to repair the holes
made in the pericardium (the sack surrounding the heart) during invasive cardiac
procedures such as coronary artery bypass procedures and valve replacement. Over
400,000 such procedures are performed each year in the U.S. alone.
 
  UROLOGY PRODUCTS
 
     The urological development program includes products for urinary
incontinence and bladder repair, all of which are in preclinical trials.
Approximately ten million women in the U.S. alone have some form of stress
urinary incontinence ("SUI"). The most effective treatment for this condition is
corrective surgery. About 100,000 surgical procedures are performed annually in
the U.S. for this condition. A major limitation of this procedure is that it
requires harvesting autologous material -- patient fascia -- for use as a sling.
As an alternative to surgery, the patient may be injected with a periurethral
bulking agent. This approach is most effective in those women with SUI due to
intrinsic sphincter deficiency, approximately two million women.
 
     Organogenesis has two products in development for SUI. One is a bladder
sling, for use in the corrective surgery procedure. This would serve as an
"off-the-shelf" alternative to use of autologous material, thus reducing
procedure cost and morbidity, and broadening its appeal to both physicians and
patients. The second is an injectable collagen for use as a periurethral bulking
agent. Unlike current injectables, this product has the structure of native
collagen, which should foster host tissue integration and thus greater
persistence, resulting in improved clinical efficacy.
 
     The Company is also developing a patch for use in bladder surgeries, such
as bladder repair following carcinoma removals and in bladder augmentation to
correct urge incontinence and congenital bladder anomalies. This patch is
anticipated to replace the need to obtain autologous material via bowel
resection, a lengthy and difficult procedure. Consequently, this patch may also
reduce procedure cost and morbidity.
 
  ORTHOPEDIC PRODUCTS
 
     Organogenesis is developing a DFC cable, made from many collagen threads,
to be used in knee ligament replacement grafts. The DFC cable is intended to
replace damaged knee ligaments and encourage ligament remodeling causing
eventual replacement of the collagen device by the patient's own tissue. The DFC
cable is designed to be strong, non-immunogenic and biodegradable in a
controlled fashion. This would enable the implant to support the patient's
weight on the joint while acting as a scaffold to promote the ingrowth of
connective tissue, which eventually replaces the graft as it is resorbed.
Preclinical trials are currently underway to evaluate the DFC cable.
 
     Approximately 250,000 procedures are conducted each year in the U.S. for
ligament and tendon repair and replacement. Many of these injuries arise from
sports-related accidents, however, many also result from common day-to-day
mishaps. Tendon and ligament injuries are often very painful and in many cases,
never fully heal, resulting in permanent disability.
 
     In July 1993, Organogenesis entered into a collaborative agreement with
Biomet, Inc., of Warsaw, Indiana for the development of orthopedic implants
using DFC. Upon product commercialization, Biomet will have exclusive worldwide
marketing rights. See "Collaborative Research and Development Agreements."
 
  OTHER PRODUCTS
 
     Biomaterials.  Because of interest expressed in the Company's high quality
cell-compatible collagen, a selling and marketing effort has been initiated by
the Company to seek distribution of product to corporate and academic
laboratories. The collagen available for sale is considered a by-product of
current manufacturing
 
                                       22
<PAGE>   24
 
efforts already in place and additional expenses incurred, specifically for
selling, marketing and distribution, are not deemed material to the Company's
current cost of operation.
 
     Extracellular Matrix  In September 1994, the Company formed a wholly owned
subsidiary, ECM Pharma, Inc. ("ECM Pharma"). ECM Pharma is an early-stage
development company whose mission is to develop and commercialize human
therapeutics based on the extracellular matrix (the "ECM"). Naturally occurring,
active molecules of the ECM are beginning to be identified which could lead to a
new family of therapeutic drugs. ECM Pharma will focus on conditions involving
defective synthesis, modification or degradation of the extracellular matrix,
such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and fibrotic conditions such as cirrhosis
of the liver. One potential product anticipated to be produced by ECM Pharma is
cell-produced human collagen. To supplement research, ECM Pharma signed in March
1995 a research collaboration agreement with Harvard University. In February
1995, Organogenesis announced its intent to seek equity investment in ECM Pharma
to fund the initial efforts related to research and development activities.
However, there can be no assurance that ECM Pharma will be able to raise capital
through equity investments on acceptable terms, if at all.
 
PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
 
     The Company seeks to protect its technology through the use of patents. Key
aspects of the Company's technology are licensed under an exclusive patent
license agreement with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ("MIT"). The
agreement with MIT (as amended, the "MIT Agreement") covers five U.S. patents
and corresponding patents in European and Far East countries. Pursuant to the
MIT Agreement, the Company has been granted an exclusive, worldwide license to
make, use and sell the products covered by the patents and to practice the
procedures covered by the patents.
 
     The MIT Agreement requires the Company to pay to MIT a royalty on the
cumulative net sales of licensed products ranging from 3% to 4.5% of annual
sales. The royalty also applies to net sales by the Company's sublicensees.
 
     In addition to the five patents licensed to the Company under the MIT
Agreement, the Company has five U.S. issued patents. These issued patents relate
to (1) the Company's test system incorporating skin tissue equivalents and other
organ equivalents; (2) the Company's proprietary collagen extraction process;
(3) the invention and methods of making DFC constructs; (4) the production of an
organ equivalent for the cornea and its method of production using tissue
culturing systems; and (5) a method of making collagen thread. As part of the
continuing interest in protecting its intellectual property rights, the Company
has also filed, and is prosecuting, eight patent applications in the United
States and in over forty foreign countries covering inventions resulting from
the Company's research and development activities.
 
     There can be no assurance that any patents will be issued as a result of
the Company's patent applications, or that issued patents will provide the
Company with significant protection against competitors. Moreover, there can be
no assurance that any patents issued to or licensed by the Company will not be
infringed, or that third parties will not independently develop either the same
or similar technology.
 
     A portion of the Company's know-how and technology are trade secrets. To
protect its rights, the Company requires key employees and consultants to
maintain the confidentiality of the Company's proprietary information, and the
Company intends to require any corporate sponsor with which the Company enters
into collaborative research and development agreement to do so as well. There
can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will provide meaningful
protection for the Company's trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary
information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.
 
MANUFACTURING AND SOURCES OF SUPPLY
 
     The Company manufactures GRAFTSKIN for use in its clinical trials at its
Canton, Massachusetts facility and intends to manufacture GRAFTSKIN for
commercial sale at the facility.
 
     Among the fundamental raw materials needed to fabricate GRAFTSKIN is a
small number of keratinocyte and fibroblast cells. In order for products of the
Company made with these initial cells to be used
 
                                       23
<PAGE>   25
 
as a replacement for human skin, it is critical that the cells be disease-free.
The Company has experienced no difficulty obtaining cells, and has established a
mechanism for obtaining screened cells from donors certified by blood testing to
be free of the "HIV" or "AIDS" virus and other pathogens.
 
     The major additional material required to produce the Company's products is
collagen, a protein ordinarily obtained from cows or pigs by commercial
suppliers. The Company determined that the collagen provided by the usual
commercial sources is not suitable for the Company's purposes. Accordingly, the
Company has developed a proprietary method of producing its own collagen. This
process yields collagen which the Company believes is superior in quality and
strength to collagen available from commercial sources and which provides the
Company with a continuous, high-quality source of supply.
 
     The other raw materials required in the production of the Company's
products are primarily chemical nutrients, which are readily available from a
number of commercial sources.
 
COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS
 
     In July 1993, the Company entered into a collaboration with Biomet, Inc.
("Biomet") for the development of orthopedic implants using DFC. Biomet and its
subsidiaries design, manufacture and market products used primarily by
orthopedic medical specialists in both surgical and non-surgical therapy. Under
the terms of the agreement, Biomet will fund preclinical and clinical
development and the Company will receive a milestone payment upon the successful
completion of the project. The agreement provides that the Company manufacture
the resulting products and that Biomet has exclusive worldwide marketing rights.
 
     In 1987, the Company entered into an agreement with Eli Lilly and Company
("Lilly") to develop, manufacture and market a GRAFTARTERY product. In July
1993, the Company announced the termination of its relationship with Lilly. On
January 11, 1995, the Company and Lilly executed a Termination Agreement
releasing Lilly from all rights licensed or conveyed under the July 1, 1991
agreement and releasing the Company from any and all obligations and liabilities
in any way connected with the agreement. The Company intends to complete the
GRAFTARTERY project with its own funds or through a potential collaboration with
another party.
 
     In February 1995, the Company announced it signed a letter of intent to
develop and commercialize collagen coated endovascular stents with SCIMED Life
Systems, Inc. As a result of the merger between SCIMED and Boston Scientific
Corporation, SCIMED management is analyzing the collaborative program with the
Company, and there can be no assurance that the Company and SCIMED will enter
into a definitive agreement.
 
     In March 1995, ECM Pharma signed a collaborative research agreement with
Harvard University to supplement research for the development and
commercialization of human therapeutics based on the extra cellular matrix.
 
     The Company also has agreements with thirty clinical sites to conduct human
clinical trials of GRAFTSKIN. Clinical trials are used to test GRAFTSKIN's
safety and effectiveness as a treatment for chronic venous ulcers, wounds
resulting from dermatological surgery and burns.
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
     The Company's present and proposed activities are subject to government
regulation in the United States and other countries. In order to clinically
test, produce and market medical devices for human use, the Company must satisfy
mandatory procedures and safety and efficacy requirements established by the FDA
and comparable state and foreign regulatory agencies. Typically, such rules
require that products be approved by the government agency as safe and effective
for their intended use prior to being marketed. The approval process is
expensive, time-consuming and subject to unanticipated delays, and no assurance
can be given that any agency will grant its approval.
 
     Testing is necessary to determine safety and efficacy before a submission
may be filed with the FDA to obtain authorization to market regulated products.
In addition, the FDA imposes various requirements on manufacturers and sellers
of products under its jurisdiction, such as labeling, good manufacturing
practices, record keeping and reporting requirements. The FDA also may require
post-marketing testing and surveillance programs to monitor a product's effects.
 
                                       24
<PAGE>   26
 
     If the Company develops any product to a point where FDA authorization
becomes required, there can be no assurance that the appropriate authorization
will be granted, that the process to obtain such authorization will not be
excessively expensive or lengthy, or that the Company will have sufficient funds
to pursue such approvals. Moreover, the failure to receive requisite
authorization for the Company's products or processes, when and if developed, or
significant delays in obtaining such authorization, would prevent the Company
from commercializing its products as anticipated and may have a materially
adverse effect on the business of the Company.
 
     The regulatory status of GRAFTSKIN is as follows: In 1989, the FDA granted
the Company an IDE for clinical testing of GRAFTSKIN on burn patients. In 1992,
the FDA granted the Company IDE Supplements for clinical testing of GRAFTSKIN
for the treatment of chronic skin ulcers and clean excision wounds. Discussions
with the FDA on the clinical data were held on March 29, 1995. On June 5, 1995,
the Company announced that it has received notice from the FDA that its
GRAFTSKIN PMA application to be submitted will receive expedited review. The
Company intends to file a PMA application during 1995.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
     The Company plans to continue to focus its product development effort on
developing high quality wound care, cardiovascular, general surgical,
urology-related and orthopedic products.
 
     The Company's research and development staff consists of scientists and
laboratory assistants with technical backgrounds in tissue science, orthopedics,
cell biology, matrix biology, vascular biology, clinical medicine and molecular
biology.
 
     For 1992, 1993 and 1994, the Company's research and development expenses
were $6,949,000, $8,117,000, and $8,573,000, respectively.
 
COMPETITION
 
     The Company is engaged in the rapidly evolving and competitive field of
tissue engineering. Many major pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical product
companies in the United States and abroad are seeking to develop competitive
products for the treatment of skin wounds and organ equivalent products.
Competition from these companies and others is intense and is expected to
increase. Many of these companies have substantially greater capital resources,
research and development staffs and facilities and experience in the marketing
and distribution of products than the Company. In addition, competitive
companies are working on alternate approaches to many of the diseases targeted
by the Company.
 
     The Company is currently aware of other companies which have or are
planning to commercialize products intended to serve as skin replacements, in
addition to several companies that concentrate on skin repair devices. The
Company's principal competitors in the wound care products market include
Johnson & Johnson, Kendall, Smith & Nephew, Advanced Tissue Sciences and Genzyme
Tissue Repair. The Company believes that its competitive position will be based
on its ability to create and maintain scientifically advanced technology and
proprietary products and processes, attract and retain qualified scientific
personnel, obtain patent or other protection for its products and processes,
obtain required government approvals on a timely basis, manufacture its products
on a cost-effective basis and successfully market its products.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
   
     As of June 28, 1995, the Company had 95 full-time employees, of which 50
employees were devoted to research and development and 33 employees were devoted
to production and support of GRAFTSKIN and other products. The Company is
dependent upon the ability of certain of its key employees to develop and
manufacture its products and to assist in regulatory matters. None of the
Company's employees are represented by a labor union. The Company believes its
relationship with its employees is good.
    
 
SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY BOARD
 
     The Company has a Scientific Advisory Board ("SAB") composed of seven
physicians, professors and scientists in various fields of medicine and science.
The SAB meets from time to time to advise and consult with management and the
Company's scientific staff. Each member of the SAB is expected to devote only a
portion of his time to the Company and may have consulting or other advisory
arrangements with other
 
                                       25
<PAGE>   27
 
entities which may conflict or compete with his obligations to the Company.
Members of the SAB have no formal duties, authority or management obligations.
 
PROPERTIES
 
   
     The Company currently leases 45,000 square feet of space in Canton,
Massachusetts, at an annual average base rent of $386,000, plus operating
expenses. The lease expires in 1999. In January 1992, the Company sublet
approximately 12,000 square feet of this space to a third party at an annual
rent of approximately $100,000 plus operating expenses. The Company took
occupancy of the subleased space in April 1995. The Company believes that its
    
facility is adequate for its current needs.

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
     AUTHORIZED AND OUTSTANDING CAPITAL STOCK.  The Company is authorized to
issue 20,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share ("Common
Stock"), and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value per share
("Preferred Stock").
 
   
     As of June 28, 1995, there were issued and outstanding 9,379,278 shares of
Common Stock and 250,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the
"Series A Stock"). In addition, as of June 28, 1995, the Company has reserved an
aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under its 1986 Stock
Option Plan, 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under its 1995 Stock
Option Plan, 300,000 shares of Common Stock under a stock option agreement with
the Chairman of the Company, 187,500 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon
the exercise of certain warrants described below, 150,000 shares of Common Stock
for issuance upon exercise of options granted under the 1991 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan, 100,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon exercise of
options granted under the 1991 Directors Stock Option Plan, and 200,000 shares
of Common Stock for the issuance upon exercise of options granted or to be
granted under the 1994 Directors' Stock Option Plan.
    
 
     Common Stock.  The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per
share for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of
stockholders and are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. In
the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of
Common Stock have the right to a ratable portion of assets remaining after
payment of liabilities and the liquidation preferences of any outstanding
Preferred Stock. The holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights or rights
to convert their Common Stock into any other securities and are not subject to
future calls or assessments by the Company. All outstanding shares of Common
Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
 
     Preferred Stock.  The Board of Directors may, without further action of the
stockholders of the Company, issue Preferred Stock in one or more series and fix
the rights and preferences thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates,
conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund
provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number
of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series.
 
     The rights of the holders of Common Stock as described above will be
subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any
Preferred Stock that may be issued in the future. Issuance of Preferred Stock,
while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions,
and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult
for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from acquiring, a
majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company. The Company has no
present plans to issue any additional shares of Preferred Stock.
 
     Series A Stock.  On May 12, 1991, the Board of Directors authorized the
designation of 250,000 shares of Series A Stock. All of the authorized and
issued shares of Series A Stock were then purchased by a stockholder of the
Company. No dividends accrue on the Series A Stock.
 
     The Company may redeem the Series A Stock at any time, in whole or in part,
by paying a redemption price ranging from $8.40 to $8.00 per share, depending on
when such stock is redeemed by the Company. The Series A Stock has a liquidation
preference over Common Stock equal to $8.00 per share.
 
     Each holder of shares of Series A Stock is entitled to the number of votes
equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of
Series A Stock are convertible. The Company may not (a) amend, alter or repeal
the preferences, special rights or other powers of the Series A Stock so as to
adversely affect the Series A Stock, or (b) amend, alter or modify its Restated
Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of
Series A Stock, without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the
then outstanding shares of Series A Stock.
 
     Common Stock Purchase Warrants.  There are currently outstanding common
stock purchase warrants ("the Investor Warrants") issued by the Company to
certain investors to purchase an aggregate of 187,500 shares of its Common
Stock, for exercise prices ranging from $12.00 per share to $30.55 per share.

Investor Warrants are exercisable at any time by the holders thereof. The shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Investor Warrants (the
"Registrable Shares") have not been registered under the Securities Act.
However, the Company has granted the holders of the Investor Warrants demand
registration rights to require the Company to register the Registrable Shares
under the Securities Act at the Company's expense. The Company has also granted
incidental registration rights to each holder of Investor Warrants.
 
   
     Investor Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Common
Stock expire in November, 1995; and 37,500 Investor Warrants expire on April 3,
1996. As of June 28, 1995, no Investor Warrants had been exercised.

                            DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
 
   
     The following summary of the provisions of each of the Unit Warrants and
Adjustment Warrants is qualified in its entirety by reference to the respective
form of Warrant Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an Exhibit to the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.
    
 
   
     Unit Warrants.  Each Unit Warrant entitles the holder (the "Unit Warrant
Holder") to the right (the "Unit Warrant Right") to purchase one share of Common
Stock at a price of $          per share (expected to be equal to 150% of the
lower of the Initial Purchase Price or the Adjustment Price, as such terms are
defined below), subject to adjustment as described below, at any time through
                    , 2000, when the Unit Warrants expire. The term "Adjustment
Price" means an amount equal to 97% of the average of the daily volume weighted
average trade price (as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets News and rounded
to three decimal places) for the Company's Common Stock during a period
beginning on the day after an investment agreement is signed and ending 20
business days later and the term "Initial Purchase Price" means the Per Unit
Price to the Public set forth in the table on the cover page of this Prospectus
divided by five (5). The holder of Unit Warrants may exercise some or all of the
Unit Warrants held by such holder by executing the appropriate subscription form
attached to the Unit Warrant Agreement and delivering the form to the Company,
together with the payment of the exercise price for the shares of Common Stock
purchased. The exercise price may be paid by certified or bank check or by wire
transfer. Unit Warrants may be exercised on more than one occasion prior to
expiration of the Unit Warrants. Unit Warrant holders will not have any voting
or other rights as stockholders of the Company.
    
 
   
     The Unit Warrant included in each Unit is subject to adjustment in the
event the Adjustment Price exceeds the Initial Purchase Price by an amount equal
to or greater than $2.00 per share, in which event each Unit shall include a
Unit Warrant to purchase one-half share of Common Stock instead of one share of
Common Stock.
    
 
   
     The Unit Warrants may, subject to certain exceptions, be redeemed by the
Company at a price of $.01 each, at any time after                , 1997 upon 30
days prior written notice, if the average of the closing sale prices of the
Common Stock (as reported by the American Stock Exchange) exceeds $          per
share (expected to be equal to 150% of the Warrant Exercise Price) for any
thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending within 30 days of the notice of
redemption. The Unit Warrant Rights contained in any Unit Warrants so called for
redemption will be forfeited unless such Unit Warrants are exercised prior to
the date specified in the notice of redemption.
    
 
   
     Adjustment Warrants.  In the event that the Adjustment Price is lower than
the Initial Purchase Price, the Company will issue Adjustment Warrants to each
investor equal to the Initial Purchase Price less the Adjustment Price
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock included in the Units
purchased by such investor, and divided by the Adjustment Price. The exercise
price of the Adjustment Warrants will be $.01 per share of Common Stock and the
Adjustment Warrants will be exercisable by the holder thereof for a period
beginning 65 days from the date that the holder gives notice to the Company and
ending 155 days after such notice and will expire at the end of this period. The
Adjustment Warrants will expire on the third anniversary of their issuance if
they have not previously expired. The Adjustment Warrants may not be redeemed by
the Company.
    
 
   
     Transferability.  The Unit Warrants and the Adjustment Warrants
(collectively, the "Warrants") are nontransferable and no public market for
trading the Warrants is expected to exist.
    
 
   
     Adjustments.  The exercise price of the Warrants, the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Unit Warrant Rights and the price
at which the Company may redeem the Unit Warrants are subject to adjustment in
the event of stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization,
merger, consolidation or certain other events. In the event of the complete
liquidation and dissolution of the Company, the Warrants will terminate.
    
 
   
     The Company has authorized and reserved for issuance a number of shares of
Common Stock sufficient to provide for the exercise of the right to purchase
shares currently represented by the Warrants. When issued against receipt of the
payment provided for in the Warrants, each share of Common Stock will be fully
paid and nonassessable.

                   CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
 
     The following discussion summarizes certain United States federal income
tax considerations that prospective purchasers of the Units should take into
account. The discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as
presently in effect, Treasury Department proposed, temporary and final
regulations, judicial decisions and Internal Revenue Service rulings and
administrative practices, all of which are subject to prospective or retroactive
change. The tax consequences to prospective investors may vary based on the
individual circumstances of each investor and the tax consequences to any
particular investor may be affected by matters not discussed below. PROSPECTIVE
INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN ADVISORS WITH SPECIFIC REFERENCE TO
THEIR OWN FEDERAL INCOME TAX SITUATIONS, AS WELL AS ESTATE, GIFT, FOREIGN, STATE
AND LOCAL TAX ASPECTS OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY.
 
DETERMINATION OF TAX BASIS
 
   
     For purposes of determining a holder's adjusted tax basis in the Common
Stock and the Unit Warrants for federal income tax purposes, the purchase price
of each Unit must be allocated between the Common Stock and the Unit Warrants. A
holder's adjusted tax basis for the Common Stock will equal the portion of each
Unit's purchase price allocated to the Common Stock based on the relative fair
market values of the Common Stock and the Unit Warrants on the closing date of
the transaction. A holder's adjusted tax basis for each Unit Warrant will equal
the portion of each Unit's purchase price not allocated to the Common Stock.
    
 
   
TREATMENT OF ADJUSTMENT WARRANTS
    
 
   
     If the Company issues Adjustment Warrants, the issuance of such Adjustment
Warrants will likely be treated for federal income tax purposes as the issuance
of the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Adjustment Warrants are
exercisable.
    
 
   
SALES OF COMMON STOCK OR UNIT WARRANTS
    
 
   
     On a sale or other taxable disposition of any Common Stock or Unit Warrant,
a holder will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference
between the amount received on the disposition and the holder's adjusted tax
basis in any such Common Stock or Unit Warrant. Gain or loss on the sale of the
Common Stock will generally be capital gain or loss if the Common Stock is
treated as a capital asset in the hands of the holder on the date of sale. Gain
or loss on the sale of a Unit Warrant will be capital gain or loss if the Common
Stock is or would be treated as a capital asset in the hands of the holder of
the Unit Warrant on the date of sale. The capital gain or loss will be long-term
capital gain or loss if the holder's holding period for such Common Stock or
Unit Warrants is more than one year at the time of the disposition. A
non-corporate holder is taxable on long-term capital gains at a maximum federal
tax rate of 28%, contrasted with the maximum federal tax rate applicable to
short-term capital gains of 39.6% (not taking into account the phase-out of
personal exemptions and certain itemized deductions). A corporate holder is
taxable on long-term capital gains at a maximum federal tax rate of 35%.
    
 
   
EXERCISE OF UNIT WARRANTS
    
 
   
     Upon the exercise of a Unit Warrant, a holder will not recognize any gain
or loss. The holder's adjusted tax basis in the Common Stock received upon
exercise of the Unit Warrant will be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the Unit
Warrant increased by the amount paid on exercise of the Unit Warrant. The
holding period for the Common Stock received upon exercise of the Unit Warrant
will commence upon exercise.
    
 
   
REDEMPTION OF UNIT WARRANTS
    
 
   
     Upon the redemption by the Company of a Unit Warrant, a holder will
recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount
received on the redemption and the holder's adjusted tax basis in such Unit
Warrant. If the Common Stock would have been a capital asset in the hands of the
holder of the Unit Warrant, the gain or loss will generally be treated as
capital gain. If the Common Stock would not have been a capital asset in the
hands of the holder of the Unit Warrant or if the IRS successfully asserted
    
 
                                       33
<PAGE>   35
 
   
that the redemption of the Unit Warrant constituted a termination of a
contractual obligation rather than the sale or exchange of a capital asset, the
gain or loss would be treated as ordinary income or ordinary loss. Any capital
gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder's holding
period for the Unit Warrants is more than one year at the time of the
disposition.
    
 
   
EXPIRATION OF UNIT WARRANTS
    
 
   
     Upon the expiration of a Unit Warrant without exercise, a holder will
recognize a capital loss in an amount equal to the adjusted tax basis of the
Unit Warrant.
    
 
                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
     The Units offered hereby are being offered for sale directly by the
Company. The Company does not anticipate offering the Units through
underwriters, dealers or agents. However, if the Company does offer the Units
through any of the foregoing, the net proceeds to the Company would be reduced
by any discounts or commissions which would be required to be paid by the
Company to any such underwriter, dealer or agent. The price of the Units offered
hereby and the exercise price of the Common Stock underlying the Warrants will
be determined through negotiations between the Company and prospective
purchasers of the Units.
 
     There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in selling
any or all of the Units offered hereby. The Company has not fixed a minimum
number of Units to be sold pursuant to this Prospectus. Therefore, the Company
may sell less than all of the Units offered hereby, which may significantly
reduce the amount of proceeds to be received by the Company. Funds received by
the Company on the sale of less than all of the Units offered hereby will not be
placed in an escrow, trust or similar account.
 
     The Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company, with the assistance of other officers as needed, will participate in
the sale of the Units to the purchasers. These participants, who will not
receive any compensation for these activities, will not be deemed to be brokers
pursuant to Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The Company does not expect to offer or sell Units in any state whose securities
laws would require that the Units only be sold through licensed brokers or
dealers.
 
                                 LEGAL MATTERS
 
     The validity of the Units offered hereby will be passed upon for the
Company by Hale and Dorr, Boston, Massachusetts.
 
                                    EXPERTS
 
     The consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 1994 and
1993 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders'
deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1994 are incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and elsewhere in the
registration statement and have been incorporated herein in reliance upon the
reports of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P., independent accountants, given on the
authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
     Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the
request of the corporation in related capacities against amounts paid and
expenses incurred in connection with an action or proceeding to which he is or
is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person
shall have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal
proceeding, if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful, provided that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of
the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as
to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the adjudicating court determines that such
indemnification is proper under the circumstances.
 
     Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended,
permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a
director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of
loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not
in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
 
     The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for
indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and that the Company may
advance litigation expenses to an officer or director prior to the final
disposition of an action.
 
     The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation also provides, as
permitted by Delaware law, that directors shall not be personally liable to the
Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as
a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of a director's duty of
loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in
good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law,
(iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
     The Company has a Directors and Officers liability insurance policy that
insures the Company's officers and directors against certain liabilities.

ITEM 16. EXHIBITS.
 
     See Exhibit Index included immediately preceding the Exhibits to this
Registration Statement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
 
ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
 
     (a) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions
described under "Item 15 -- Indemnification of Directors and Officers" above, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
     (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
          (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
     of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
     of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
     a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
     (4), or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
     registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
          (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
     Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
     be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
     offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
     deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
     (c) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

                          (VOID AFTER JULY    , 2000)
 
     Organogenesis Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value
received, hereby certifies that [name of purchaser of Warrant], or its
registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms
set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time
on or after the date hereof and on or before July , 2000 at not later than 5:00
p.m. (Boston, Massachusetts time), provided this Warrant has not sooner been
redeemed by the Company pursuant to Section 12 herein, shares of Common Stock,
$.01 par value per share, of the Company, at a purchase price of $ per share.
The shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per
share, each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this
Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase
Price," respectively.
 
     1.  EXERCISE.
 
          (a) This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder at any time
     on or after the date hereof and prior to expiration or redemption, in whole
     or in part, by surrendering this Warrant, with the purchase form appended
     hereto as Exhibit I duly executed by such Registered Holder or by such
     Registered Holder's duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of
     the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may
     designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of the United
     States, of the Purchase Price payable in respect of the number of Warrant
     Shares purchased upon such exercise.
 
          (b) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been
     effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which
     this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in
     subsection 1(a) above. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or
     names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such
     exercise as provided in subsection 1(c) below shall be deemed to have
     become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by
     such certificates.
 
          (c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full
     or in part, and in any event within 10 days thereafter, the Company, at its
     expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the
     Registered Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any
     applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
 
             (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant
        Shares to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled upon such
        exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Registered
        Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount determined
        pursuant to Section 3 hereof; and
 
             (ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or
        warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate
        on the face or faces thereof for the number of Warrant Shares equal
        (without giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such
        shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such
        shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise.
<PAGE>   2
 
     2.  ADJUSTMENTS.
 
          (a) If outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock shall be
     subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common Stock
     shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Purchase Price in effect
     immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such
     dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or
     immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately
     reduced. If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a
     smaller number of shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to
     such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such
     combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required
     to be made in the Purchase Price, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
     upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined
     by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the
     exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied
     by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by
     (ii) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
 
          (b) If there shall occur any capital reorganization or
     reclassification of the Company's Common Stock (other than a change in par
     value or a subdivision or combination as provided for in subsection 2(a)
     above), or any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another
     corporation, or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
     Company, then, as part of any such reorganization, reclassification,
     consolidation, merger or sale, as the case may be, lawful provision shall
     be made so that the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall have the right
     thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof the kind and amount of
     shares of stock or other securities or property which such Registered
     Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to any
     such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as
     the case may be, such Registered Holder had held the number of shares of
     Common Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
     In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined in good
     faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the
     application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
     and interests thereafter of the Registered Holder of this Warrant, such
     that the provisions set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions with
     respect to adjustment of the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be
     applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to any
     shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon
     the exercise of this Warrant.
 
          (c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the Purchase Price,
     the Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a certificate
     setting forth the Purchase Price after such adjustment and setting forth a
     brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Such certificate
     shall also set forth the kind and amount of stock or other securities or
     property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable following the
     occurrence of any of the events specified in subsection 2(a) or (b) above.
 
          (d) In case any event shall occur as to which the provisions of this
     Section 2 are not strictly applicable including, but not limited to,
     amendment of the Company's certificate of incorporation or through any
     dissolution or any other voluntary action by the Company whereby the
     failure to make any adjustment would materially and adversely affect the
     purchase rights represented by this Warrant, then, in each such case, the
     Company shall appoint a firm of independent certified public accountants of
     recognized national standing (which may be the regular auditors of the
     Company) or other independent third party agreed upon by the Company and at
     least 50% of the holders of the outstanding Company Warrants, as defined
     herein, which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a
     basis necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights
     represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will
     promptly mail a copy thereof to the Registered Holder of this Warrant and
     shall make the adjustments described therein. Notwithstanding the
     foregoing, this Section (d) shall not be deemed to accord any adjustment
     rights due to the sale by the Company of any of its securities or the
     granting by the Company of any right to purchase any of its securities.
 
     3.  FRACTIONAL SHARES.  The Company shall not be required upon the exercise
of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an adjustment
therefor in cash on the basis of the fair market value per share of Common
Stock, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
 
                                        2
<PAGE>   3
 
     4.  NON-TRANSFERABILITY.
 
                 THIS WARRANT SHALL NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED.
 
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Warrant may be transferred by a
Registered Holder (i) which is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or
a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to
the estate of any such partner or retired partner, or (ii) to a spouse or
immediate family member (brother, sister, father, mother, grandfather,
grandmother, grandson or granddaughter) of the Registered Holder, if the
transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 4.
 
     5.  NO IMPAIRMENT.  The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or
through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or
any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist
in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of
this Warrant against impairment.
 
     6.  LIQUIDATING DIVIDENDS.  If the Company pays a dividend or makes a
distribution on the Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of earnings
or earned surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles) except for a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock (a
"Liquidating Dividend"), then the Company will pay or distribute to the
Registered Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof, in addition to the
Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise, the Liquidating Dividend which
would have been paid to such Registered Holder if he had been the owner of
record of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to the date on which a record is
taken for such Liquidating Dividend or, if no record is taken, the date as of
which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends or
distribution are to be determined.
 
     7.  NOTICES OF RECORD DATE, ETC.
 
        In case:
 
          (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
     (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of
     this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any
     dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or
     purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to
     receive any other right; or
 
          (b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification
     of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the
     Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or
     merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of
     all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or
 
          (c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
     winding-up of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will
     mail or cause to be mailed to the Registered Holder of this Warrant a
     notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to
     be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and
     stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right,
     or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification,
     consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is
     to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders
     of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time
     deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
     exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities)
     for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
     reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation
     or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to
     the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.
 
     8.  RESERVATION OF STOCK.  The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such number of Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from
time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
 
                                        3
<PAGE>   4
 
     9.  EXCHANGE OF WARRANTS.  Upon the surrender by the Registered Holder of
any Warrant or Warrants, properly endorsed, to the Company at the principal
office of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 4
hereof, issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Holder, at the Company's
expense, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such Registered
Holder or as such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered Holder of
any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face
or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face
or faces of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.
 
     10.  REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS.  Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
 
     11.  TRANSFERS, ETC.
 
          (a) The Company will maintain a register containing the names and
     addresses of the Registered Holders of this Warrant. Any Registered Holder
     may change its or his address as shown on the warrant register by written
     notice to the Company requesting such change.
 
          (b) This Warrant and all rights hereunder are may be transferred, only
     in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, in whole or in part, upon
     surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed assignment (in the form
     of Exhibit II hereto) at the principal office of the Company.
 
          (c) Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant
     register, the Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant as
     the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if and
     when this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall
     not be obligated to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof
     for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
 
     12.  REDEMPTION OF WARRANT.  At any time after July , 1997, the Company
may, on thirty days' prior written notice redeem this Warrant at a price equal
to $.01 times the number of Warrant Shares purchaseable upon exercise of this
Warrant, if the average of the closing sales prices of the Company's Common
Stock (as reported on the American Stock Exchange) exceeds $ per share. This
Warrant and all rights of the Registered Holder hereunder shall be forfeited
unless this Warrant is exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of

amended, and the right to exercise this Warrant may not be waived, without the

Warrant No. A-                                      Number of Shares:
Date of Issuance:               ,                (subject to adjustment)

                         COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
 
                          (VOID AFTER JULY    , 1998)
 
     Organogenesis Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value
received, hereby certifies that [name of purchaser of Warrant], or its
registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms
set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at any time during the Exercise
Period, as specified in paragraph 1 below, or from time to time on or after the
date of issuance and on or before July , 1998 at not later than 5:00 p.m.
(Boston, Massachusetts time),           shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value
per share, of the Company, at a purchase price of $.01 per share. The shares
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per share,
each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant,
are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase Price,"
respectively.
 
     1.  EXERCISE.
 
          (a) Whereas the Company desires sufficient notice of the exercise of
     this Warrant to ensure that the Company take, or cause to be taken, all
     actions necessary, proper or advisable, in order to exercise this Warrant,
     the Registered Holder must notify the Company in writing that the Holder
     desires to commence the period during which the Warrant shall be
     exercisable. Commencing on the sixty-fifth day following the giving of such
     notice, and for a period of 90 days thereafter (the "Exercise Period"), the
     Warrant shall be exercisable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrant
     shall not be exercisable until the 85th day following the date of issuance
     of this Warrant. This Warrant will not be exercisable, in whole or in part,
     after the Exercise Period has terminated. To exercise this Warrant, the
     Registered Holder must surrender this Warrant during the Exercise Period,
     with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit I duly executed by such
     Registered Holder or by such Registered Holder's duly authorized attorney,
     at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency
     as the Company may designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful
     money of the United States, of the Purchase Price payable in respect of the
     number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise.
 
          (b) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately
     prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have
     been surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection 1(a) above. At
     such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates
     for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in
     subsection 1(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders
     of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
 
          (c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full
     or in part, and in any event within 3 days thereafter, the Company, at its
     expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the
     Registered Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any
     applicable transfer taxes) may direct: a certificate or certificates for
     the number of full Warrant Shares to which such Registered Holder shall be
     entitled upon such exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which
     such Registered Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount
     determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof.
<PAGE>   2
 
     2. ADJUSTMENTS.
 
          (a) If outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock shall be
     subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common Stock
     shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Purchase Price in effect
     immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such
     dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or
     immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately
     reduced; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Purchase Price shall not be reduced
     below the par value of the Common Stock. If outstanding shares of Common
     Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Purchase Price
     in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with
     the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When
     any adjustment is required to be made in the Purchase Price, the number of
     Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
     changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the
     number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately
     prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect
     immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect
     immediately after such adjustment.
 
          (b) If there shall occur any capital reorganization or
     reclassification of the Company's Common Stock (other than a change in par
     value or a subdivision or combination as provided for in subsection 2(a)
     above), or any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another
     corporation, or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
     Company, then, as part of any such reorganization, reclassification,
     consolidation, merger or sale, as the case may be, lawful provision shall
     be made so that the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall have the right
     thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof the kind and amount of
     shares of stock or other securities or property which such Registered
     Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to any
     such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as
     the case may be, such Registered Holder had held the number of shares of
     Common Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
     In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined in good
     faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the
     application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
     and interests thereafter of the Registered Holder of this Warrant, such
     that the provisions set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions with
     respect to adjustment of the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be
     applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to any
     shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon
     the exercise of this Warrant.
 
          (c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the Purchase Price,
     the Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a certificate
     setting forth the Purchase Price after such adjustment and setting forth a
     brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Such certificate
     shall also set forth the kind and amount of stock or other securities or
     property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable following the
     occurrence of any of the events specified in subsection 2(a) or (b) above.
 
          (d) In case any event shall occur as to which the provisions of this
     Section 2 are not strictly applicable, including, but not limited to,
     amendment of the Company's certificate of incorporation or through any
     dissolution or any other voluntary action by the Company whereby the
     failure to make any adjustment would materially and adversely affect the
     purchase rights represented by this Warrant, then, in each such case, the
     Company shall appoint a firm of independent certified public accountants of
     recognized national standing (which may be the regular auditors of the
     Company), or other independent third party agreed upon by the Company and
     at least 50% of the holders of the outstanding Company Warrants, as defined
     herein, which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a
     basis necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights
     represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will
     promptly mail a copy thereof to the Registered Holder of this Warrant and
     shall make the adjustments described therein. Notwithstanding the
     foregoing, this Section (d) shall not be deemed to accord any adjustment
     rights due to the sale by the Company of any of its securities or the
     granting by the Company of any right to purchase any of its securities.
 
                                        2
<PAGE>   3
 
     3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required upon the exercise
of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an adjustment
therefor in cash on the basis of the fair market value per share of Common
Stock, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
 
     4. NON-TRANSFERABILITY.
 
                 THIS WARRANT SHALL NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED.
 
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Warrant may be transferred by a
Registered Holder (i) which is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or
a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to
the estate of any such partner or retired partner, or (ii) to a spouse or
immediate family member (brother, sister, father, mother, grandfather,
grandmother, grandson or granddaughter) of the Registered Holder if the
transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 4.
 
     5. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or
through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or
any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist
in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of
this Warrant against impairment.
 
     6. LIQUIDATING DIVIDENDS. If the Company pays a dividend or makes a
distribution on the Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of earnings
or earned surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles) except for a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock (a
"Liquidating Dividend"), then the Company will pay or distribute to the
Registered Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof, in addition to the
Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise, the Liquidating Dividend which
would have been paid to such Registered Holder if he had been the owner of
record of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to the date on which a record is
taken for such Liquidating Dividend or, if no record is taken, the date as of
which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends or
distribution are to be determined.
 
     7. NOTICES OF RECORD DATE, ETC.
 
        In case:
 
          (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
     (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of
     this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any
     dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or
     purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to
     receive any other right; or
 
          (b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification
     of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the
     Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or
     merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of
     all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or
 
          (c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
     winding-up of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will
     mail or cause to be mailed to the Registered Holder of this Warrant a
     notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to
     be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and
     stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right,
     or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification,
     consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is
     to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders
     of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time
     deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
     exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities)
     for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
     reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation
     or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to
     the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

     8. RESERVATION OF STOCK. The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such number of Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from
time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
 
     9. EXCHANGE OF WARRANTS. Upon the surrender by the Registered Holder of any
Warrant or Warrants, properly endorsed, to the Company at the principal office
of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof,
issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Holder, at the Company's expense,
a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such Registered Holder
or as such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face or
faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or
faces of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.
 
     10. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
 
     11. TRANSFERS, ETC.
 
          (a) The Company will maintain a register containing the names and
     addresses of the Registered Holders of this Warrant. Any Registered Holder
     may change its or his address as shown on the warrant register by written
     notice to the Company requesting such change.
 
          (b) This Warrant and all rights hereunder are may be transferred, only
     in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, in whole or in part, upon
     surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed assignment (in the form
     of Exhibit II hereto) at the principal office of the Company.
 
          (c) Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant
     register, the Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant as
     the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if and
     when this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall
     not be obligated to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof
     for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
 
     12. MAILING OF NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications from the
Company to the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first-class
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to the address furnished to the
Company in writing by the last Registered Holder of this Warrant who shall have

herewith to the Company shall be mailed by first-class certified or registered

If the Company should at any time change the location of its principal office to

Warrant to the location of its principal office at the particular time shall be

the Company, all dated the date hereof and of like tenor, except as to the
number of shares of Common Stock subject thereto (collectively, the "Company
Warrants"). Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived upon the written
consent of the Company and the holders of Company Warrants representing at least
50% of the number of shares of Common Stock then subject to outstanding Company
Warrants; provided that any such amendment or waiver must apply to all Company
Warrants then outstanding; and provided further that the number of Warrant
Shares subject to this Warrant and the Purchase Price of this Warrant may not be
amended, and the right to exercise this Warrant may not be waived, without the
written consent of the holder of this Warrant (it being agreed that an amendment
to or waiver under any of the provisions of Section 2 of this Warrant shall not
be considered an amendment of the number of Warrant Shares or the Purchase
Price).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        This opinion is furnished to you in connection with a Registration 
Statement on Form S-3, File No. 33-60381, together with Amendment No. 1 thereto 
(the "Registration Statement"), filed with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for 
the registration of 2,530,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value per share 
(the "Shares"), of Organogenesis Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), including Shares issuable upon exercise of certain warrants 
described in the Registration Statement.

        We have acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the
preparation of the Registration Statement. We have examined signed copies of the
Registration Statement and all exhibits thereto, all as filed with the
Commission. We have also examined and relied upon the originals, or copies of
minutes of meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company, the By-laws of the
Company and the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, each as
amended.

        We have not made an independent review of the laws of any state or 
jurisdiction other than the General Corporation Law statute of the State of 
Delaware and the United States. Accordingly, we express no opinion herein with 
respect to the laws of any state or jurisdiction other than the General 
Corporation Law statute of the State of Delaware and the United States.

        Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, subject to events 
subsequent to the date hereof, the Shares have been duly authorized and that, 
when issued and sold by the Company and full payment therefor in cash has been 
received by the Company, they will be validly issued, fully paid and 
nonassessable.

        We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as part of the 
Registration Statement and to the use of our name therein and in the related 
Prospectus under the caption "Legal Matters."
        
        It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection 
with the offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in 
effect.

                                Very truly yours,


                                HALE AND DORR
