 This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of March 3,
2008 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and between Biomet, Inc., an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), and Jon Serbousek (the “Executive”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to engage the Executive, and the Executive desires to be engaged by the Company, as President, Biomet Orthopedics, Inc.; and

 WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to enter into this Agreement to set out the terms and conditions for the employment
relationship of the Executive with the Company; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Employment Agreement. On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to employ the Executive and the Executive agrees to be employed by the Company for the Employment Period set forth in Section 2
and in the positions and with the duties set forth in Section 3. Terms used herein with initial capitalization not otherwise defined are defined in Section 23. 
 2. Term. The initial term of employment under this Agreement shall be for a three-year period commencing on the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”). The term of employment shall be
automatically extended for an additional consecutive 12-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 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 President, Biomet Orthopedics, Inc. In such capacity, 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 President of a major business unit (of the size and nature of Biomet Orthopedics, Inc.) 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. It is agreed and understood that Executive will commute to and from the
principal executive offices of the Company for the initial eighteen months of the Employment Period. 
 5. Compensation and Benefits

 (a) Base Compensation. During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to the Executive a base salary (the “Base
Salary”) at the rate of no less than $390,000 per year. The Base Salary shall be reviewed for increase by the Company no less frequently than annually and shall be increased in the discretion of the Company and any such adjusted Base Salary
shall constitute “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement. The Base Salary shall be paid in substantially equal installments in accordance with the 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 80% of the Executive’s Base Salary for on-target performance with the possibility of exceeding 80% for high achievement, provided that, for the Company’s fiscal year
2008 (ending May 31, 2008), Executive shall be eligible for a prorated annual incentive bonus for fiscal year 2008; subsequent thereto, Executive will be eligible for the annual incentive bonus as provided herein. 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 the Company in accordance with the terms of the Annual
Plan. 
 (c) Vacation; Benefits. During the Employment Period, the Company shall provide to the Executive employee benefits and
perquisites on a basis that is no less favorable than that provided to other senior officers of the Company, including participation in the Company’s deferred compensation plan (if any), as in effect from time to time. It is agreed that
Executive will be eligible for four (4) weeks vacation each fiscal year during the Employment Period commencing in fiscal year 2009. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all benefits are provided at the Company’s sole discretion.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to change insurance carriers and to adopt, amend, terminate or modify employee benefit plans and arrangements at any time and without the consent of the Executive.

 (d) Relocation Expenses. In connection with the Executive’s commencement of his employment
with the Company, pursuant to and subject to the terms of the Biomet Relocation Service Policy, the Company shall pay (or reimburse Executive for) Executive’s actual relocation expenses from Tennessee to the greater Warsaw, Indiana area.

 (e) Sign-On Bonus. The Company shall pay to Executive, within thirty (30) days of the date on which Executive commences his
active employment with the Company, a lump sum cash payment of $200,000 (the “Sign-On Bonus”). The Executive shall be required to repay the Sign-On Bonus to the Company if, prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date, the
Executive terminates his employment with the Company other than for Good Reason or the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause, provided that such repayment obligation shall lapse with respect to twenty-five percent
(25%) of the Sign-On Bonus for each six (6) month period of employment completed by Executive commencing on the Effective Date. 
 6. Expenses. The Executive is expected and is authorized to incur reasonable expenses in the performance of his duties hereunder. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all such expenses reasonably and actually incurred in
accordance with policies which may be adopted from time to time by the Company promptly upon periodic presentation by the Executive of an itemized account, including reasonable substantiation, of such expenses. 
 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 

  

 3 








 
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 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. 
 (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 within 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 

  

 4 








 
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. 
 (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 confidential or proprietary information of another Person that will be used in connection with the
discharge of his duties hereunder, provided that the parties acknowledge and agree that the scope of the Executive’s duties hereunder shall not include performing services in the spinal and biologics businesses as those businesses were
understood by Medtronic, Inc. at the time of Executive’s effective resignation date as an employee of Medtronic, Inc. 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 90 consecutive days or 180 non-consecutive days in any 24-month period and which qualified Executive for long term disability coverage under
applicable Company disability plans (a “Disability”); 
 (ii) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment for Cause as defined herein; or 
 (iii) Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment without
Cause at any time upon not less than 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. 
 (c) By the Executive. The Executive may terminate his employment with or without Good Reason upon not less than 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, and the Executive’s notice of Non-Renewal pursuant to
Section 2 hereof shall constitute notice of the Executive’s termination of his employment for purposes of this Section 8(c). During this 90-day notice period, the Company may, without breaching this Agreement or constituting Good
Reason or a Termination without Cause, relieve the Executive of his positions, titles, duties and responsibilities and direct the Executive to cease appearing on Company property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 only if the Company determines that a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h)
has occurred.

 (d) Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Employment Period, other than pursuant to the
Executive’s death, shall be effected by delivery to the other party of a notice of termination (a “Notice of Termination”) from the party terminating the Employment Period.

to have resigned, from all positions with the Company and its Affiliates.
