period commencing on the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”). The term of employment shall be automatically extended for an additional consecutive twelve-month period (the “Extended Term”) on the first
anniversary of the Effective Date and each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date, unless and until the Company or Executive provides written notice to the other party in accordance with Section 11 hereof not less than ninety
(90) days before such anniversary date that such party is electing not to extend the term of employment under this Agreement (“Non-Renewal”), in which case the term of this Agreement shall end as of the end of such Initial Term
or Extended Term, as the case may be, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter set forth. Such Initial Term and all such Extended Terms are collectively referred to herein as the “Employment Period”. 

3. Position and Duties. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall serve as Senior Vice President, General Counsel and
Secretary, Biomet, Inc. In such capacities, the Executive shall report to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall have the powers and authority customarily exercised by individuals serving as
Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of a company of the size and nature of the Company. The Executive shall devote the Executive’s reasonable best efforts and full business time to the performance of the Executive’s duties
hereunder and the advancement of the business and affairs of the Company; provided that the Executive shall be entitled to serve 







 
as a member of the board of directors of another company approved by the Board, to serve on civic, charitable, educational, religious, public interest or public service boards approved by the
Board, and to manage the Executive’s personal and family investments, in each case, to the extent such activities do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the performance of the Executive’s duties and
responsibilities hereunder. 
 4. Place of Performance. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be based
primarily at the principal executive offices of the Company in Warsaw, Indiana, except for reasonable travel on the Company’s business consistent with the Executive’s position.

$                     per year. The Base Salary shall be reviewed for increase by the Company no less frequently than annually and shall be

Company’s regular payroll procedures. 
 (b) Annual Bonus. The Executive shall be given the
opportunity to earn an annual incentive bonus for each fiscal year that ends during the Employment Period in accordance with the annual bonus plan generally applicable to the Company’s executive officers, as the same may be in effect from time
to time (the “Annual Plan”). The Executive’s target annual incentive bonus opportunity under the Annual Plan shall be no less than 60% of the Executive’s Base Salary for on-target performance with the possibility of
exceeding 60% for high achievement. The actual amount payable to the Executive as an annual bonus under the Annual Plan shall be dependent upon the achievement of performance objectives established in accordance with the Annual Plan by the Board or
the compensation committee of the Board (or its successor committee) (the “Compensation Committee”). Any bonus payable pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be paid at the same time annual bonuses are payable to other officers of

 7. Confidentiality, Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement. The Company and the
Executive acknowledge and agree that during the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive will have access to and may assist in developing Company Confidential Information and will occupy a position of trust and confidence with
respect to the Company’s affairs and business and the affairs and business of the Company’s Affiliates. The Executive agrees that the following obligations are necessary to preserve the confidential and proprietary nature of Company
Confidential Information and to protect the Company and its Affiliates against harmful solicitation of employees and customers, harmful competition and other actions by the Executive that would result in serious adverse consequences for the Company
and its Affiliates: 
 (a) Non-Disclosure. During the Executive’s employment with the Company and
thereafter, the Executive will not knowingly use, disclose or transfer any Company Confidential Information other than as authorized in writing by the Company or within Executive’s good faith interpretation of the scope of the Executive’s
duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of this Section 7(a) shall not apply (i) when disclosure is required by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any
committee thereof) with actual or apparent jurisdiction to order the Executive to disclose or make accessible any information; or (ii) to information that becomes generally known to the public or within the relevant trade or industry other than
due to the Executive’s violation of this Section 7(a). 
 (b) Materials. The Executive will not
remove any Company Confidential Information or any other property of the Company or any of its Affiliates from the Company’s premises or make copies of such materials except for normal and customary use in the Company’s business. The
Company acknowledges that the Executive, in the ordinary course of his duties, routinely uses and stores Company Confidential Information at home and other locations. The Executive will return to the Company all Company Confidential Information and
copies thereof and all other property of the Company or any of its Affiliates at any time upon the request of the Company and in any event promptly after termination of Executive’s employment. The Executive agrees to attempt in good faith to
identify and return to the Company any copies of any copies of any Company Confidential Information after the Executive ceases to be employed by the Company. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, nothing in this Section 7 shall prevent the
Executive from retaining a home computer, papers and other materials of a personal nature (including diaries and calendars), information relating to his compensation or relating to reimbursement of expenses, information that he reasonably believes
may be needed for tax purposes, and copies of plans, programs and agreements relating to his employment. 
 (c)
No Solicitation or Hiring of Employees. During the Non-Compete Period, the Executive shall not solicit, entice, persuade or induce any individual who is employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates (or who was so employed within 180 days
prior to the Executive’s action) to terminate or refrain from continuing such employment or to become employed by or enter into contractual relations with any other individual or entity other than the Company or any of its Affiliates, and the
Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, hire, or participate in the hiring, as an employee, consultant or otherwise, any such Person. 

  
 3 








 (d) Non-Competition. 

(i) During the Non-Compete Period, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, (A) solicit or encourage any
client or customer of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or any Person who was a client or customer withing 180 days prior to Executive’s action to terminate, reduce or alter in a manner adverse to the Company, any existing business
arrangements with the Company or any of its Affiliates or to transfer existing business from the Company or any of its Affiliates to any other Person, (B) provide services to any entity that competes with the Company or its Affiliate in the
United States or any other jurisdiction in which the Executive has any responsibility during his employment hereunder or that provides a product or service competitive with any product or service provided by the Company or its Affiliate or
(C) own an interest in any entity described in subsection (B) immediately above; provided, however, that Executive may own, as a passive investor, securities of any such entity that has outstanding publicly traded securities so long as his
direct holdings in any such entity shall not in the aggregate constitute more than 2% of the voting power of such entity. The Executive agrees that, before providing services, whether as an employee or consultant, to any entity during the Non
Compete Period, he will provide a copy of this Agreement to such entity and acknowledge, to the company in writing, that he has done so. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall prevent the Executive from providing
services to a division or a subsidiary of an entity that does not compete with the Company or any of its Affiliates and that does not provide products or services competitive with products or services provided by the Company or any of its Affiliates
even if other divisions or subsidiaries of that entity compete with the Company so long as the Executive does not have any managerial or supervisory authority with respect to such competitive division or subsidiary. The Executive acknowledges that
this covenant has a unique, very substantial and immeasurable value to the Company, that the Executive has sufficient assets and skills to provide a livelihood for the Executive while such covenant remains in force and that, as a result of the
foregoing, in the event that the Executive breaches such covenant, monetary damages would be an insufficient remedy for the Company and equitable enforcement of the covenant would be proper. The Executive further covenants that he shall not
challenge the reasonableness of any of the covenants set forth in this Section 7, but reserves the right to challenge the Company’s interpretation of such covenants. 

(ii) If the restrictions contained in Section 7(d)(i) shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to
be unenforceable by reason of their extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of their being too extensive in any other respect, Section 7(d)(i) shall be modified to be effective for the maximum
period of time for which it may be enforceable and over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable and to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable. 

  
 4 








 (e) Publicity. During the Employment Period, the Executive hereby
grants to the Company the right to use, in a reasonable and appropriate manner, the Executive’s name and likeness, without additional consideration, on, in and in connection with technical, marketing or disclosure materials, or any combination
thereof, published by or for the Company or any of its Affiliates. 
 (f) Conflicting Obligations and
Rights. The Executive represents and warrants that he is not subject to agreement or contractual commitment that prevents or in any way limits his ability to fully discharge his duties and responsibilities hereunder and that he is not in
possession of any discharge his duties and responsibilities hereunder and that he is not in possession of any confidential or proprietary information of another Person that will be used in connection with the discharge of his duties hereunder. The
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the accuracy of the foregoing representation and warranty is a condition precedent to the enforceability of the Company’s obligations hereunder. 

(g) Enforcement. The Executive acknowledges that in the event of any breach of this Section 7, the business
interests of the Company and its Affiliates will be irreparably injured, the full extent of the damages to the Company and its Affiliates will be impossible to ascertain, monetary damages will not be an adequate remedy for the Company and its
Affiliates, and the Company will be entitled to enforce this Agreement by a temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of posting bond or security, which the Executive expressly waives. The
Executive understands that the Company may waive some of the requirements expressed in this Agreement, but that such a waiver to be effective must be made in writing and should not in any way be deemed a waiver of the Company’s right to enforce
any other requirements or provisions of this Agreement. The Executive agrees that each of the Executive’s obligations specified in this Agreement is a separate and independent covenant and that the unenforceability of any of them shall not
preclude the enforcement of any other covenants in this Agreement. 
 8. Termination of Employment. The Executive’s
employment hereunder may be terminated during the Employment Period under the following circumstances: 
 (a)
Death. The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon the Executive’s death; 
 (b)
By the Company. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment for: 
 (i) Disability.
If the Executive shall have been substantially unable to perform the Executive’s material duties hereunder by reason of illness, physical or mental disability or other similar incapacity, which inability shall continue for ninety

 5 








 (iii) Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment without Cause at any time upon not less than ninety (90) days notice to the Executive. The Company’s Non-Renewal of the Initial Term or the Extended Term shall constitute a termination of the Executive’s employment by the
Company without Cause, and the Company’s notice of Non-Renewal pursuant to Section 2 hereof shall constitute notice of termination without Cause for purposes of this Section 8(b)(iii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s
Non- Renewal of the Initial Term or the Extended Term shall constitute a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause only if the Company determines that a “separation from service” within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h) has occurred.

employment with or without upon not less than ninety (90) days notice to the Company. The Executive’s Non-Renewal of the Initial Term or the Extended Term shall constitute a termination of employment by the Executive without Good Reason,

severance benefits (if any) shall be governed by the Change in Control Agreement entered into between the Executive and the Company and dated as of September 20, 2006 (the “Change in Control Agreement”), as modified by Sections

 EXHIBIT A 

RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS

Background 
 A. The Executive and Biomet, Inc. (“Company”) previously entered into an Employment Agreement, dated February 28, 2008 (“Agreement”), which provides for the payment of benefits to
the Executive under certain circumstances following his termination of employment. 
 B. The Executive’s employment with
the Company terminated/will terminate on
                                    , thereby entitling him to
payments under the Agreement, subject to the terms thereof. 
 C. The Company’s obligations under the Agreement are
contingent on the Executive signing and providing this Release to the Company within 21 days after receiving it and allowing this Release to become effective as provided herein. 

D. As a condition of receiving benefits under the Agreement, the Executive wishes to sign this Release. 

In consideration of the premises and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Executive agrees as follows: 
 1. If the Executive (i) signs and dates this Release and submits it to the Company not
later than 21 days after it is provided to the Executive, (ii) complies with the other requirements of this Release and the Agreement, (iii) and does not provide written revocation of this Agreement to the Company within the seven-day
revocation period referred to in Paragraph 8, the Company shall make the payments and pay the benefits required by the Agreement.

officers, directors, shareholders, partners, trustees, employees, agents, representatives, administrators, attorneys, insurers, fiduciaries, successors, and assigns, in their individual and/or representative capacities (hereinafter collectively
referred to as “Employer”), from any and all causes of action, suits, agreements, promises, damages, disputes, controversies, contentions, differences, judgments, claims, and demands of any kind whatsoever, including any claims based on
allegations of wrongful discharge, and/or breach of contract (“Claims”) that the Executive and/or his heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns has or may have ever had, has or may now have, or may have against the Employer
by reason of the Executive’s employment or before the date on which the Executive signed this Release, other than (i) a Claim that the Company has failed to pay the Executive the payment described in or contemplated by the


  
 17 









 
Agreement or has otherwise breached the terms of the Agreement, or (ii) a Claim that the Company has failed to pay the Executive any vested benefits to which the Executive is entitled under
a plan or program of the Company (collectively, “Excluded Claims”). The Executive gives this Release regardless of whether the Claims are known or unknown. Such released Claims include, without limitation, any and all Claims under Title
VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Civil Rights Act of 1871, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Americans with

fully valid and enforceable as to all other claims and circumstances. 
 4. The Executive represents that he/she has not filed,
and will not hereafter file, any lawsuit against the Employer relating to his/her employment and/or cessation of employment with the Employer, or otherwise involving facts that occurred on or before the date on which he signed this Release, other
than with respect to any Excluded Claims.

(together with interest thereon), and he/she agrees to reimburse the employer for all attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by Employer in defending against such a lawsuit, provided that the right to receive such payments is without prejudice
to the Employer’s other rights hereunder, including any release of any and all Claims (other than the Excluded Claims) against the Employer. 
 6. The Executive understands and agrees that the Company’s payments to him/her and the signing of this Release do not in any way indicate that he/she has any viable Claims against the Employer or
that the Employer admits any liability to him/her whatsoever. 
 7. In signing this Agreement, the Executive warrants that, to
the extent that he/she is aware of any potential or suspected violations of Biomet’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, Fraud and Abuse Compliance Policies, and Anti-Corruption Policy (collectively Biomet’s “Business Ethics
Policies”) and other applicable laws, including the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the False Claims Act, and the Stark laws, the Executive has reported such potential or suspected violations to the appropriate personnel of Employer.

officers liability insurance, Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws with respect to any claims relating to the Executive’s employment with Employer.
