expenditures, expected outcomes of pending litigation and regulatory investigations, the solvency of our insurers and the ultimate resolution of allocation and coverage issues with those insurers, competitive conditions and general economic

which the forward-looking statements contained herein are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate given the inherent
uncertainties as to the occurrence or nonoccurrence of future events. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this annual report will prove to be accurate. The inclusion of a forward-looking statement in this
annual report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our objectives will be achieved. Forward-looking statements also involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any

elsewhere by management from time to time. Such factors, among others, may have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations and may include, but are not limited to, factors discussed under the heading

Part I.



|Item 1. | Business.
|------- | ---------

General

Biomet, Inc., an Indiana corporation incorporated in 1977, is one of the largest orthopedic medical device companies in the United States and worldwide
with operations in more than 50 locations throughout the world and distribution in approximately 90 countries. The Companys principal subsidiaries include Biomet Orthopedics, LLC; Biomet Manufacturing Corp.; Biomet Europe B.V.; EBI, LLC;
Biomet 3i, LLC; Biomet Microfixation, LLC; Biomet Sports Medicine, LLC; and Biomet Biologics, LLC. Unless the context requires otherwise, the term Biomet, Company, we, or us refers to Biomet, Inc. and
all of its subsidiaries. We design, manufacture and market a comprehensive range of both surgical and non-surgical products used primarily by orthopedic surgeons and other musculoskeletal medical specialists.

The Companys reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange
Act, are available free of charge in, or may be accessed through, the Financial Information section of the Companys website at www.biomet.com as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company files or furnishes such material with
or to the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. In addition, copies of these reports will be made available free of charge, upon written request to the Companys Investor Relations Department. Biomet is located at 56 East Bell Drive,
Warsaw, IN 46582.

The information on Biomets website is not included as part of, nor incorporated by reference into, this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

Transactions with the Sponsor Group

On December 18, 2006, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with LVB Acquisition, Inc., or Parent, and LVB Acquisition Merger Sub, Inc., or Purchaser, which agreement was amended and restated as of
June 7, 2007. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on June 13, 2007, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer, or the Offer, to purchase all of our outstanding common shares, or the Shares, at a price of $46.00 per Share, or the Offer Price,
without interest and less any required withholding taxes. The Offer was made pursuant to Purchasers offer to purchase dated June 13, 2007 and the related letter of transmittal. The Offer expired on July 11, 2007, with approximately
82% of the outstanding Shares having been tendered to Purchaser. At our special meeting of shareholders held on September 5, 2007, more than 91% of our shareholders voted to approve the proposed Merger, and Parent acquired us on
September 25, 2007 through a reverse subsidiary merger with Biomet, Inc. being the surviving company of the Merger. Subsequent to the acquisition, we became a subsidiary of our Parent, which is controlled by LVB Acquisition Holding, LLC, or
Holding, an entity controlled by The Blackstone Group, Goldman Sachs Capital Partners, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. and TPG Capital, or the Sponsors.

The Merger was completed on September 25, 2007 and was financed through:



| |  |  | the proceeds from the initial offering of 10% Senior Cash Pay Notes due 2017, 103/8%/111/8%
Senior Toggle Notes due 2017 and 115/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017, or collectively the Notes;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | initial borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities and our senior unsecured bridge facilities;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | equity investments funded by direct and indirect equity investments from certain investment funds associated with or designated by the Sponsors, or the Sponsor
Funds, certain investors who have agreed to co-invest with the Sponsor Funds, including investment funds affiliated with certain of the initial purchasers of the original notes, or the Co-Investors, and certain of our executive officers and members
of our senior management, or the Management Participants, who rolled over existing equity interests and/or made cash equity contributions; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our cash on hand.
| | - |  | -----------------

##### Table of Contents

On October 16, 2007, the borrowings under our senior unsecured bridge facilities were repaid with
the proceeds from the follow-on offering of the equal amounts of the additional original senior cash pay notes, original senior toggle notes and original senior subordinated notes, respectively.

We refer to these transactions, including the Merger and our payment of any fees and expenses related to these transactions, collectively as the
Transactions.

In connection with the Transactions, we incurred significant indebtedness and became highly leveraged. See
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsLiquidity and Capital Resources. In addition, we allocated the purchase price to the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Biomet based
on estimated fair value. The preliminary purchase accounting adjustments increased the carrying value of our property and equipment, inventory and established intangible assets (such as corporate and product names, core and completed technology,
customer relationships), among other things. Subsequent to the Transactions, interest expense and non-cash depreciation and amortization charges have significantly increased. As a result, our Successor financial statements subsequent to the
Transactions are not comparable to our Predecessor financial statements.

Settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice

On September 27, 2007 we entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement with the U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of New Jersey. The
agreement concluded the governments investigation into whether consulting agreements between the largest orthopedic manufacturers and orthopedic surgeons who use joint reconstruction and replacement products may have violated the federal
Anti-Kickback Statute. The agreement calls for the appointment of an independent monitor to review our compliance with the agreement, particularly in relation to our consulting agreements. As part of the resolution of this matter, we entered into a
$26.9 million settlement with the Department of Justices Civil Division and we also entered into a Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or OIG-HHS. The
agreement requires us to continue to adhere to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and certain other provisions, including reporting requirements. For more information, see Legal Proceedings and Risk Factors.

Competitive Strengths

We believe we have a number
of competitive strengths that will enable us to further enhance our position in the orthopedic medical device market.

Broad Market
Leadership. We are the fourth largest player in the U.S. orthopedic reconstructive market and have maintained this position for over a decade. We have high representation at U.S. hospitals, supplying products to over 60% of hospitals
performing joint replacement surgery. In addition, we are the third largest manufacturer and marketer of dental reconstructive devices worldwide and maintain leadership positions in the electrical stimulation and craniomaxillofacial fixation market.

Leading Research and Development Platform. We have a long history of innovation, engineering, quality and successful
new product launches. Demonstrating our research and development leadership, we have launched approximately 800 new products in the past nine fiscal years and plan to introduce approximately 100 new products during fiscal 2009.

Strong Relationships with Surgeon Customers. Based on their understanding of and satisfaction with our products, we enjoy
long-standing relationships with our surgeon customers, many of which commence during the surgeons residency training programs. Our support of medical education programs provides important training opportunities for orthopedic surgeons early
in their careers. In fact, supporting hands-on training provides opportunities for residents, fellows and attending surgeons to experience the clinical benefits of our products. Surgeons have historically exhibited limited willingness to
switch manufacturers, as successful patient outcomes are partially related to the practitioners familiarity with the procedural characteristics and instrumentation of certain implants. As such, 19 of our top 25 surgeons have been our customers
for at least 10 years.

Consistently Strong Operating Cash Flow Generation. Our business is characterized by
consistently strong operating cash flows due to our robust operating history and moderate capital intensity. We plan to dedicate a significant portion of the generated cash flow to service our required interest and principal payments on outstanding
debt balances. We have continually increased revenues with fiscal 2008 representing our 30th consecutive year of year-over-year net sales growth. Over the last 16 years, from fiscal 1992 to fiscal 2008, we increased net sales at a compounded annual
growth rate of approximately 15%. We have sustained growth through multiple macro-economic cycles, demonstrating a stable business profile. In addition, we have historically had modest capital expenditure and working capital requirements providing
for strong operating cash flow conversion.

Experienced and Dedicated Management Team. We have a highly experienced
management team at both the corporate and operational level. Our team is led by Jeffrey R. Binder, a 16-year veteran of the orthopedic medical device industry, who was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer in February 2007.
Daniel P. Florin was appointed Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer in June 2007 and has 17 years of financial officer/controller experience in the medical device industry and five years of public accounting and auditing experience.
Glen A. Kashuba was appointed Senior Vice President and President of Biomet Trauma and Biomet Spine, or BTBS, in April 2007, having previously served as Worldwide President of Cordis Endovascular, a division of Johnson & Johnson.
Gregory W. Sasso, who has been with Biomet for 23 years, was appointed Senior Vice President and President of Biomet Strategic Business Unit (SBU) Operations in June 2007. In February 2008, Jon C. Serbousek was appointed President of Biomet
Orthopedics, having spent 21 years in the medical device industry including 8 years with Medtronic and 13 years with DePuy. Even though each of Messrs. Binder, Florin, Kashuba and Serbousek has been with us for less than two years, the members of
our senior management team have an average tenure of 13 years with us. Overall, the members of our senior management team have an average tenure of 18 years in the medical device industry. During fiscal year 2008, certain members of our management
team made a contribution of new equity through cash equity contributions and/or rollover of existing equity interests in the Transactions.

Premier Equity Sponsorship. The Blackstone Group, Goldman Sachs Capital Partners, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. and TPG Capital are among the most well-known and respected financial sponsors in the world. The
Sponsors and the Co-Investors contributed approximately $5,387.5 million of equity in connection with the Transactions, representing 46% of the total funding for the Transactions, as part of one of the largest private equity investments in history.
The Sponsors have considerable experience in the healthcare sector with investments in companies such as Accellent Inc., HCA Inc., IASIS Healthcare Corporation, Quintiles Transnational Corp., DJO Inc. (formerly ReAble Therapeutics, Inc.) and
Vanguard Health Systems, Inc., among others.

Business Strategy

We intend to enhance our position as a leading orthopedic medical device company by pursuing the following strategic initiatives:

Continue to Develop and Launch New Products and Technologies. We plan to continue to aggressively develop new products, technologies and materials by leveraging our established research and development
platform. While we have a strong engineering heritage, we believe we have taken steps to enhance our research and development efforts, which should improve time to market and leverage best technologies and innovations available throughout all
business segments and regions. We anticipate that our future research and development investment will be consistent with historical results as a percentage of net sales.

Enhance Surgeon Customer Relationships through Product Performance and Innovation. We intend to continue to meet the needs of our surgeon customers and hospital customers by providing clinically
successful and innovative products that offer a cost-effective means of treating patients. Our success has been built on responsiveness to the needs of the health care community, the clinical performance of our products and our ongoing commitment to
continued product innovation.

Expand Our Global Reach. We intend to continue to increase the geographic presence of each
of our business categories. We believe there are considerable opportunities for global expansion as healthcare spending increases in international marketsthe United States and Canada together accounted for approximately 65% of the global
orthopedic market in 2007, but only approximately 5% of the worlds population. We particularly plan to focus on deepening our position in under-penetrated regions with attractive opportunities for growth, including Asia and Latin America, by
deploying more resources to capture market opportunities, as well as by leveraging our established worldwide manufacturing facilities and salesforce. We believe we can successfully grow our presence in these regions by differentiating ourselves as a
provider with a comprehensive portfolio of leading musculoskeletal products.

Focus on Operational Efficiency. We have
identified significant opportunities to streamline operations. We believe the historically decentralized nature of our management and decision-making structure creates opportunities to improve operational efficiency as we centralize operations and
increase focus, coordination and accountability throughout the organization. Plans include manufacturing footprint optimization, implementation of Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing, procurement and offshoring initiatives, as well as reduction in
overhead expenses. We expect these initiatives will enable us to maximize asset utilization, optimize working capital and increase cash flow, as well as accelerate product development and enhance customer service.

Maximize Operating Cash Flow. We are focused on maximizing our operating cash flow. Over the last 20 years, we have consistently generated
significant operating cash flow due to our business growth, strong operating margins and modest capital expenditure and other cash requirements. These solid business fundamentals have been supplemented by initiatives to improve working capital,
which historically has not been a focus area of management. In addition, we expect to benefit from identified cost savings as we enhance operational efficiencies. We plan to primarily use available cash after capital expenditures to service our
required interest and principal payments on outstanding debt balances incurred in connection with the Transaction and strengthen our balance sheet.

Products

We operate in one business segment, musculoskeletal products, which includes the design, manufacture and marketing
of products in four major categories: Reconstructive Products, Fixation Devices, Spinal Products and Other Products. We have three reportable geographic markets: United States, Europe and International.

The following charts set forth our net sales by product category and geographic markets for the period July 12, 2008 to May 31, 2008. For
certain financial information concerning our product categories and geographic markets, see Note 11 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

Reconstructive Products

Orthopedic reconstructive implants are used to replace joints that have deteriorated as a result of disease (principally osteoarthritis) or injury. Reconstructive joint surgery involves the modification of the area
surrounding the affected joint and the implantation of one or more manufactured components, and may involve the use of bone cement. Our primary orthopedic reconstructive joints are knees, hips and shoulders, but we manufacture other joints as well.
We also produce the associated instruments required by orthopedic surgeons to implant our reconstructive products, as

well as bone cements and cement delivery systems. In addition, dental reconstructive devices and associated instrumentation are used for oral rehabilitation
through the replacement of teeth and repair of hard and soft tissues.

Knee Systems. A total knee replacement typically includes a
femoral component, a patellar component, a tibial component and an articulating surface. Total knee replacement may occur as an initial joint replacement procedure, or as a revision procedure, which may be required to replace, repair or enhance the
initial implant. Partial, or unicompartmental, knee replacement is an option when only a portion of the knee requires replacement.

Our newest and most comprehensive total knee system, the Vanguard Complete Knee System, accommodates up to 145 degrees of flexion and offers full interchangeability of the systems components to provide for a precise fit for each patient. The Vanguard System may be implanted using our Premier Instrumentation for a conventional procedure or our Microplasty® Minimally Invasive Total Knee Instrumentation that is designed to reduce incision size and surrounding soft tissue disruption, to potentially allow for reduced blood loss, a shortened hospital
stay, reduced postoperative pain and less time spent in rehabilitation, as compared to a conventional procedure. During fiscal 2008, we continued the development efforts for the rotating platform version of the Vanguard Complete Knee System.

We continue to be a market
leader in addressing the increasing demand from practitioners and patients for procedures and products accommodating minimally-invasive knee techniques. The Oxford® Partial Knee, which is a
mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee that utilizes a minimally-invasive technique, continues to experience strong global sales. The Oxford® Knee, which was introduced in the United States
during fiscal 2005, is currently the only free-floating meniscal bearing partial knee approved by the FDA for use in the United States. To date, approximately 3,000 domestic surgeons have completed training to implant this product. Our offering of
minimally-invasive partial knee systems also includes the Alpina® Unicompartmental Knee (which is not currently available in the United States); the Vanguard M Series Unicompartmental Knee System, a modified version of the Oxford® Knee that incorporates a fixed-bearing tibial component as opposed to a
free-floating tibial bearing; and the Repicci II® Resurfacing Knee System that is now being distributed by our sports medicine subsidiary.

During fiscal 2008, we introduced the Signature Personalized Arthritis Care Program. The initial introduction was designed specifically for knee procedures. The Signature program uses a patients
MRI data to deliver patient-specific positioning guides to the surgeon for improved pre-operative planning and for implementation during the procedure. The Signature program was developed
through a partnership with Materialise, a world leader in custom guides for the dental industry, and we believe this technology may be expanded to other orthopedic applications.

Hip Systems. A total hip replacement involves the replacement of the head of the femur and
the acetabulum, and may occur as an initial joint replacement procedure, or as a revision procedure, which may be required to replace, repair or enhance the initial implant. A femoral hip prosthesis consists of a femoral head and stem, which can be
cast, forged or wrought, depending on the design and material used. Acetabular components include a prosthetic replacement of the socket portion, or acetabulum, of the pelvic bone. Because of variations in human anatomy and differing design
preferences among surgeons, we manufacture femoral and acetabular prostheses in a variety of sizes and configurations. We offer a broad array of total hip systems, most of which utilize titanium or cobalt chromium alloy femoral components and our
patented ArCom®, ArComXL® or E-Poly polyethylene-lined,
metal-on-metal or ceramic-on-ceramic acetabular components. Many of the femoral prostheses utilize our proprietary PPS® Porous Plasma Spray coating, which enables cementless fixation.

Out of our broad product platform of hip stem offerings, the Taperloc® Hip System has become our best-selling component. The Taperloc® Stem is marketed for non-cemented use in patients undergoing primary
or revision hip replacement surgery as a result of noninflammatory degenerative joint disease. The Taperloc® femoral component is a collarless, flat, wedge-shaped implant designed to
provide for excellent durability and stability in a stem that is relatively simple to implant and is particularly well-suited for minimally-invasive

##### Table of Contents

procedures. We also offer the Taperloc® Microplasty Stem that addresses the demand for a minimally-invasive, bone-conserving total hip implant. The shorter length of the Microplasty Stem, compared to a
traditional hip stem, allows for preservation of distal bone, while maintaining proximal femoral bone fixation.

Our comprehensive Microplasty Minimally Invasive Hip Program includes proprietary products from our broad array of hip implants, as well as a distinctive
training program and uniquely-designed instruments for a minimally-invasive approach. Our minimally-invasive hip development efforts have been focused on various surgical approaches, including an anterior supine approach, which is an intramuscular
surgical approach.

We continue to explore the development of innovative
articulation technologies and materials. Our M2a-Taper Acetabular System combines a
cobalt chromium head with a cobalt chromium liner and has demonstrated a 20- to 100-fold reduction in volumetric wear in simulator studies compared to traditional metal-polyethylene articulation systems. The M2a-Taper Acetabular System may be utilized on all of our femoral components and has continued to evolve with the
introduction of the M2a-Magnum Articulation System, which incorporates larger diameter
metal-on-metal components designed to more closely resemble the natural anatomy, offering improved range of motion and joint stability. We introduced the C2a-Taper Acetabular System during fiscal 2006, which provides an additional alternative bearing option featuring ceramic-on-ceramic articulation. In addition, we continue to
pursue the development of a diamond-on-diamond hip articulation system through our relationship with Diamicron, Inc., a global leader in the research, development and manufacture of polycrystalline diamond composite technology for biomedical
applications. We also market ArComXL® bearings from a second-generation highly crosslinked polyethylene based on our proven ArCom® polyethylene. ArComXL® polyethylene has demonstrated excellent wear characteristics without measurable oxidation after accelerated aging. During fiscal
2007, we received clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, to market acetabular hip liners manufactured from E-Poly Highly Crosslinked Polyethylene. We believe our
E-Poly liners are the worlds first Vitamin E stabilized highly crosslinked polyethylene products to be introduced to the market. Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant and is expected
to provide optimal oxidation resistance for the implant bearings used in our total joint replacements.

The ReCap® Total Resurfacing System is a bone-conserving product currently used outside the United States for patients in the early stages of degenerative
joint disease, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and avascular necrosis. We commenced a clinical study for the ReCap® Total Resurfacing System in the United States during
fiscal 2006 and there were approximately 230 patients enrolled in the study as of May 31, 2008. The FDA accepted the concept of Biomet including European clinical data to support its U.S. Pre-Market Approval submission, subject to further
review of the data after submission. We believe the potential exists to bring this product to the domestic market during the second half of calendar 2009.

We introduced the Regenerex®
RingLoc®+ Modular Acetabular System during fiscal 2008. The Regenerex® Construct provides design flexibility and options for
primary and revision cases. The advanced titanium scaffold structure of the Regenerex® Construct is a continuous three-dimensional matrix comprised of industry-standard Ti-6AL-4V. Titanium
is a clinically proven material in the orthopedic market, with optimal biological fixation, and the Regenerex® matrix is expected to be the material of choice for porous metal constructs.

Extremity Systems. We offer a variety of shoulder systems including the
Absolute® Bi-Polar, Bi-Angular®, Bio-Modular®, Comprehensive®, Copeland, Integrated and Mosaic Systems, as well as uniquely-designed elbow replacement systems.

The Copeland Humeral Resurfacing Head was developed to minimize bone removal in shoulder procedures and has approximately 20 years of positive clinical
results in the United Kingdom. This system was expanded to include the Copeland EAS (Extended Articular Surface) Humeral
Resurfacing Head designed to address rotator cuff arthropathy.

The first
Comprehensive® Primary Shoulder was released at the end of fiscal 2007. The initial product release included the standard and mini length Comprehensive® Primary Stems and the Versa-Dial® Heads, as well as the hybrid glenoids.

##### Table of Contents

The T.E.S.S., Total Evolutive Shoulder System, continues to receive strong market acceptance in Europe. The T.E.S.S. Shoulder, which is only available outside the
United States, is a complete system that can be used in all indications of shoulder arthroplasty.

Dental Reconstructive Devices.
Through our subsidiary, Biomet 3i, LLC (formerly Implant Innovations, Inc.), or Biomet 3i, we develop, manufacture and market products designed to enhance oral rehabilitation through the replacement of teeth and the repair of hard and soft tissues.
These products include dental reconstructive devices and related instrumentation. We also offer services related to regenerative materials. A dental implant is a small screw, normally constructed of titanium or titanium alloy, which is surgically
placed in the bone of the jaw to replace the root of a missing tooth and provide an anchor for an artificial tooth.

Biomet 3is historical flagship product, the OSSEOTITE® product line, features a patented micro-roughened surface technology, which allows for early
loading and excellent bone integration to the surface of the implant. During fiscal 2007, Biomet 3i further enhanced implant surface technology with the introduction of the NanoTite
Implant. The NanoTite surface features the application of nanometer scale crystals of calcium phosphate to the existing OSSEOTITE® surface. This enhancement has been demonstrated to increase the rate and extent of bone integration, and results in a mechanical bonding of the host bone to the surface of the implant compared with the OSSEOTITE® surface alone. The NanoTite Implant was initially introduced in Certain® Implant
configurations, which is an internal connection system that, through the use of the QuickSeat® connection, provides audible and tactile feedback when restorative abutments and ancillary
components are seated into the implant. In addition, the 6/12 point connection design of the Certain® Implant System offers enhanced flexibility in placing the implant where pre-angled
abutments may be used. During fiscal 2008, Biomet 3i continued to build on the strength of the NanoTite Implant line by introducing the NanoTite Tapered PREVAIL® Implant. This implant is designed to enhance crestal bone preservation as a result of its integration of Platform Switching, a medialized Implant-Abutment-Junction that has been demonstrated to limit the reformation of soft and hard tissue at the bone crest. This is the first tapered geometry implant available from
Biomet 3i that includes the platform switching concept. Other additions to the tapered implant product line during fiscal 2008 included a complete set of bone taps for dense bone applications and a 6mm diameter implant with the same implant body
design enhancements as implemented for other diameters.

In the site preparation
segment of the product portfolio, Biomet 3i completed beta evaluations of its Navigator CT Guidance Instrumentation Kits and commercially launched this product during the third quarter of
fiscal 2008. This open architecture instrumentation is designed to interface with the software and surgical guide solutions offered by existing entities in the marketplace. As planning and guide fabrication are based upon computed tomography scans,
this can result in accurate implant placement when combined with the depth and rotational control offered by the Biomet 3i instrumentation. As implant placement position can be replicated as planned, this can also provide the opportunity for
fabrication of a provisional prosthesis in advance of surgery, thereby allowing for a complete implant restoration in one patient visit.

On the regenerative side of the site preparation portfolio, Biomet 3i has bolstered its bone
grafting product and service offering. An exclusive agreement was signed with the University of Miami Tissue Bank for domestic representation of its dental allograft materials. The RegenerOss Allograft Putty became available during the third quarter of fiscal 2008. This material features a demineralized bone matrix material in a non-toxic lecithin carrier conveniently offered in a syringe-based delivery system. During the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2008, Biomet 3i introduced Endobon Xenograft Granules. This bovine-derived particulate bone grafting material is suitable for use in a wide range of dental-related bone
defects and offers improved handling characteristics and packaging versus some of the competitive products.

During fiscal 2008, Biomet 3i engaged in a limited domestic release of its Encode® Complete patient-specific abutment technology. This enhancement of
the baseline Encode abutment offering will allow Biomet 3i to fabricate an abutment and orient implant body analogs into the proper position in a stone master model. This

can allow for the complete fabrication of a restoration from one supragingival impression which is significantly easier than present techniques and a
potential opportunity to get more general dentists involved in implant therapy. The quality of these abutments and the ability to save significant chair time will also be of potential benefit to more experienced restorative dentists. There was a
line extension in fiscal 2008 to the patient-specific CAM StructSURE® bars to include a copy milling capability. This allows a dental laboratory to create a unique design in a resin-based
material. This is scanned and milled from titanium, and a porcelain finish is later added by the source laboratory. Other restorative product launches during fiscal 2008 included QuickBridge Provisional Components and non-hexed UCLA Abutments for Biomet 3is 3.4mm restorative platform.

Other Reconstructive Products and Services. Our PMI® Patient-Matched Implant services group designs, manufactures and delivers custom reconstructive
products to orthopedic specialists. We believe this service continues to enhance our reconstructive sales by strengthening our relationships with orthopedic surgeons and augmenting our reputation as a responsive company committed to excellent
product design. In order to assist orthopedic surgeons and their surgical teams in preoperative planning, our PMI® group utilizes a three-dimensional, or 3-D, bone reconstruction imaging
system. We use computed tomography, or CT, data to produce 3-D reconstructions for the design and manufacture of patient-matched implants. With this imaging and model-making technology, our PMI® group is able to assist the physician prior to surgery by creating 3-D models. Within strict deadlines, the model is used by engineers, working closely with the surgeon, to create a PMI® design for the actual manufacturing of the custom implant for the patient.

We are involved in the ongoing development of bone cements and delivery systems. We have broadened the range of our internally developed and manufactured bone cement product offerings. Cobalt HV (High Viscosity) Bone Cement, which was introduced in the United States during fiscal 2006, is particularly well suited for use in minimally-invasive surgery, but may be used in all applicable joint replacement
procedures. The excellent handling characteristics and high optical contrast of Cobalt HV Bone Cement are well suited to the current trends in orthopedic surgery. The patented
SoftPac monomer packaging offers the only alternative to glass vial packaging, which is inherently less safe due to the necessity to break the glass vial to deliver the monomer. We offer
our internally developed and manufactured bone cements with and without antibiotics. In conjunction with antibiotic-loaded bone cement is the use of StageOne Cement Spacer Molds. The
molds are used in revision surgery following infection as the first stage of a two-stage treatment plan. Cobalt Bone Cement is marketed in conjunction with our patented Optivac® Vacuum Mixing System. During fiscal 2007, the Fusion Vacuum Mixing Bowl was launched to address the open bowl mixing market. In
Europe, we introduced the OptiPac pre-loaded bone cement mixing and delivery system during fiscal 2008.

Additional products and services for reconstructive indications include bone substitute materials and services related to allograft material, procured through several tissue bank alliances. Markets addressed by our
allograft services include the orthopedic and dental reconstructive segments, as well as the spinal, craniomaxillofacial and sports medicine segments.

The GPS® III Gravitational Platelet
Separation System is a unique device that collects platelet concentrate from a small volume of the patients blood using a fast, single spin process, offering a high-quality platelet concentrate that has broad potential applications in the
reconstructive and spine markets. The GPS® III System is marketed in conjunction with the Biomet® Rapid Recovery Program, a
comprehensive approach to patient education, a minimally-invasive surgical approach and pain management that was developed in conjunction with leading orthopedic surgeons in the United States.

Fixation Devices

Our fixation devices include
electrical stimulation devices (that do not address the spine), external fixation devices, craniomaxillofacial fixation systems, internal fixation devices and bone substitute materials utilized in fracture fixation applications. Our
craniomaxillofacial fixation devices are marketed by our subsidiary, Biomet Microfixation, LLC, or Biomet Microfixation. All other fixation devices are marketed primarily by Biomet Trauma.

##### Table of Contents

Electrical Stimulation Systems. We are a market leader in the electrical stimulation segment of
the fixation market. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has acknowledged our extensive preclinical research documenting the Mechanism of Action for our pulsed electromagnetic field, or PEMF, capacitive coupling and direct current technologies.
The Mechanism of Action for these technologies involves the stimulation of a cascade of bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) as well as angiogenesis, chondrogenesis and osteogenesis.

The EBI Bone Healing System® product
is a non-invasive bone growth stimulation device indicated for the treatment of recalcitrant bone fractures (non-unions), failed fusions and congenital pseudarthrosis that have not healed with conventional surgical and/or non-surgical methods. The
non-invasive bone growth stimulation devices sold by us generally provide an alternative to surgical intervention in the management of these conditions. The EBI Bone Healing System® device
produces low-energy PEMF signals that induce weak pulsing currents in living tissues that are exposed to the signals. These pulses, when suitably configured in amplitude, repetition and duration, affect living bone cells to differentiate, migrate
and proliferate. The Mechanism of Action behind the PEMF technology involves the stimulation of growth factors involved in normal bone healing. Biomet Traumas preclinical research demonstrates that PEMF signals increase a number of growth
factors, such as TGF-ß, BMP-2 and BMP-4, which are normal physiological regulators of the various stages of bone healing, including angiogenesis, chondrogenesis and osteogenesis. The EBI Bone Healing System® product may be utilized over a patients cast, incorporated into the cast or worn over the skin.

The OrthoPak® 2 Bone Growth
Stimulator, which is indicated for the treatment of recalcitrant (non-union) fractures, offers a small, lightweight, non-invasive device using capacitive coupling technology. The OrthoPak®
2 device delivers bone growth stimulation through wafer-thin electrodes that add virtually no extra weight on the non-union site. The Mechanism of Action behind our capacitive coupling stimulation technology involves the stimulation of
osteopromotive factors involved in normal bone healing, such as TGF-ß1 and PGE2. The OrthoPak® 2 product provides greater ease of use and enhances access to fracture sites that are
normally hard to treat.

We also offer an implantable option when bone growth
stimulation is required in conjunction with, or subsequent to, surgical intervention. The Biomet® OsteoGen® surgically implanted
bone growth stimulator is an adjunct treatment when bone grafting and surgical intervention are required to treat recalcitrant (non-union) fractures. The Mechanism of Action behind our direct current stimulation technology involves the stimulation
of a number of osteoinductive growth factors including BMP-2, -6 and -7 and the BMP-2 receptor ALK2, which are normal physiological regulators of various stages of bone healing, including chondrogenesis and osteogenesis.

During fiscal 2005, a private company petitioned the FDA to reclassify noninvasive bone growth stimulators from Class III to Class II medical devices.
The petition was directed at products, like those described above, which utilize electromagnetic fields to stimulate bone growth. In June 2006, the FDA Advisory Panel recommended that the bone growth stimulator devices remain Class III devices. On
January 17, 2007, the FDA published its agreement and sought public comment on the Advisory Panels recommendation that bone growth stimulators remain Class III devices. The private company that had petitioned for the down-classification
of bone growth stimulators has since formally withdrawn that request. It is our understanding that bone growth stimulators will remain Class III devices.

External Fixation Devices. External fixation is utilized for stabilization of fractures
when alternative methods of fixation are not suitable. We offer a complete line of systems that address the various segments of the trauma and reconstructive external fixation market. The DynaFix® and DynaFix® Vision Systems are innovative, modular external fixation devices intended for use in complex trauma
situations involving upper extremities, the pelvis and lower extremities.

The
Biomet® Vision FootRing System is a comprehensive external
fixation system designed for the treatment of osteotomies, arthrodesis and fracture fixation indications. This system offers expanded indications for both trauma and reconstructive procedures. The simplified, snap-fit application of all components
to the Vision Ring can be configured into a multitude of constructs ranging from simple fracture fixation to complex

##### Table of Contents

reconstruction. The Vision FootRing System is made of lightweight, carbon fiber, which is radiolucent and also provides for increased patient comfort. Biomet Trauma also has a full line of external fixation devices for certain reconstructive
procedures involving limb lengthening, fusion, articulated fixation and deformity correction applications.

Internal Fixation
Devices. Our internal fixation devices include products such as nails, plates, screws, pins and wires designed to stabilize traumatic bone injuries. These devices are used by orthopedic surgeons to provide an accurate means of setting and
stabilizing fractures and for other reconstructive procedures. They are intended to aid in the healing process and may be removed when healing is complete. Internal fixation devices are not intended to replace normal body structures.

We develop, manufacture and/or distribute innovative products that fit into key segments of the
fixation market. Our flagship product used for the treatment of hip fractures is the Biomet® Peritrochanteric Nail System that incorporates an innovative single lag screw to minimize soft
tissue impingement. In conjunction with the VHS® (a registered trademark of Implant Distribution Network, Ltd.) System, the Biomet® Peritrochanteric Nail System offers a choice of options for the treatment of these fractures. Other innovative nailing products include the Biomet®
Pediatric Locking Nail (PLN) and the Biomet® WIN Flexible Nail to complement our pediatric product line. The PLN product is a
customizable, locking nail, which was designed to provide stable fixation of femur fractures in children. The WIN Nail is manufactured of titanium alloy and is intended to treat a variety
of long bone fractures.

In the area of locked plating designs, the OptiLock® Periarticular Plating System is a unique, pre-contoured system designed for fixation of periarticular lower extremity fractures. It incorporates SphereLock technology that allows the surgeon to utilize locked or unlocked screws in various diameters through any hole in the plate, while incorporating minimally-invasive techniques. The system includes applications for the
treatment of proximal tibial, distal femoral and distal tibial/fibular fractures and provides surgeons with a comprehensive system to address a variety of simple and complex periarticular fractures.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2008, Biomet Trauma introduced the Phoenix Tibial Nail System, the first in a series of Phoenix Intramedullary Nails to be released. Featuring patent-pending CoreLock technology, the nail offers a pre-assembled setscrew that dually locks the proximal oblique screws for enhanced stable fixation and also allows surgeons to utilize up to 5mm of inboard
compression for acute fracture reduction. In addition, the nail features a distal bone screw cluster that maximizes the working length of the nail. Surgeon feedback continues to be positive with respect to clinical results, implant design and
instrumentation.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, we initiated the
clinical evaluation for the remaining modules of the Phoenix Intramedullary Nailing System. Included in this offering are the Phoenix Retrograde Femoral Nail and the Phoenix Antegrade Femoral Nails. Each of these systems offers CoreLock Technology that features embedded set screws that can simultaneously lock bone screw clusters for stable fracture fixation.

Craniomaxillofacial Fixation Systems. We manufacture and distribute craniomaxillofacial, neurosurgical, and thoracic titanium and resorbable implants, along with associated surgical instrumentation, principally
marketed to craniomaxillofacial, neurosurgical, plastic, ear/nose/throat, pediatric and cardiothoracic surgeons through our subsidiary, Biomet Microfixation. We offer HTR-PMI Hard Tissue Replacement implants for repair of severe cranial defects and
bone substitute materials for use in craniomaxillofacial and neurosurgical applications. Innovative solutions are also offered for oral and maxillofacial surgeons, such as the Total Mandibular Joint Replacement System and other new products to
diagnose and treat temporomandibular joint syndrome, including an in-office scope system and arthrocentesis procedure products.

Biomet Microfixation markets the LactoSorb® Fixation System of resorbable plates and screws comprised of a co-polymer of poly-L-lactic acid and polyglycolic acid. As a result of its innovative material, the LactoSorb® System
is comparable in strength to titanium plating systems at its initial placement and is resorbed within 9 to 15 months after implantation. The LactoSorb® System is especially beneficial in
pediatric reconstruction cases by eliminating the need for additional surgery to remove the plates and screws.

Pectus Excavatum Products.Pectus excavatum
is the most common type of congenital chest-wall abnormality, occurring in approximately one of every 1,000 children. This deformity is characterized by a concave, funnel shaped chest, which can apply pressure to vital organs resulting
in restricted organ growth and shortness of breath. Pectus excavatum usually becomes increasingly serious throughout childhood, with the abnormality often magnifying considerably during the teen years. Biomet Microfixation offers a line of products
to correct this deformity, including titanium and LactoSorb® versions of the Pectus Bar and Stabilizer.

Bone Substitute and Allograft Materials. When presented with a patient demonstrating a bone
defect, such as a fractured bone or bone loss due to removal of a tumor, the treating surgeon may remove a portion of bone from the patient at a second site to use as a graft to induce healing at the site of the defect. Use of bone substitute
materials eliminate the pain created at a graft site, as well as the costs associated with this additional surgical procedure. Depending on the specific use of the bone substitute material, it can have reconstructive, fixation or spinal
applications. We also have available the InterGro® line of demineralized bone matrix (DBM) materials (InterGro® Paste,
InterGro® Putty and InterGro® Plus). The InterGro® DBM materials use
lecithin as a carrier, which is a natural lipid carrier that is resistant to breakdown by bodily fluids, temperature or aggressive irrigation.

Spinal Products

Our spinal products include electrical stimulation devices for spinal applications, spinal fixation
systems, bone substitute materials and motion preservation systems, as well as allograft services for spinal applications. These products and services are primarily marketed in the United States under the Biomet Spine trade name.

Spine Fusion Stimulation Systems. Spinal fusions are surgical procedures undertaken to establish bony union between adjacent vertebrae. We
distribute both non-invasive and implantable electrical stimulation units that surgeons can use as options to provide an appropriate adjunct to surgical intervention in the treatment of spinal fusion applications. We have assembled extensive
preclinical research documenting the Mechanism of Action for the technology utilized in our spine fusion stimulation systems.

The SpinalPak® II Spine Fusion
Stimulator utilizes capacitive coupling technology to enhance fusion incorporation. The Mechanism of Action behind the capacitive coupling stimulation technology involves the upregulation of osteopromotive factors that modulate normal bone healing,
such as TGF- ß1 and PGE2. The device consists of a small, lightweight generator worn outside the body that is connected to wafer-thin electrodes applied over the fusion site. The SpinalPak® II System is patient-friendly, enhancing comfort whether the patient is standing, sitting or reclining, and optimizes compliance with the treatment regimen to enhance fusion success.

Early during fiscal 2008, we launched the SpF® PLUS-Mini Spine Fusion Stimulator, which offers the highest current density available in one-third of the size of the original SpF® PLUS Spine Fusion
Stimulator. The surgically-implanted SpF® PLUS-Mini Spine Fusion Stimulator consists of a generator that provides a constant direct current to titanium cathodes placed where bone growth is
required. The Mechanism of Action behind our direct current stimulation technology involves the upregulation of a number of osteoinductive growth factors including BMP-2, -6 and -7 and the BMP-2 receptor ALK2, which are normal physiological
regulators of various stages of bone healing, including chondrogenesis and osteogenesis. The SpF® Stimulator has exhibited a 50% increase in fusion success rates compared to fusions with
autograft alone.

Spinal Fixation Systems. We market spinal fixation devices
for various spinal fusion applications. Biomet Spines most comprehensive system to address the degenerative and deformity markets is the Array® Spinal System. The Array® System, which is available in titanium or stainless steel, provides a single locking setscrew featuring V-Force Thread Vertical
Vector Technology designed to enhance the intraoperative ease of use for the surgeon. During fiscal 2006, we launched the Array® Deformity Spine System, which includes various styles of
screws, hooks and rods for scoliosis correction.

A more recent product offering is
the Polaris Spine System, a low profile, top-loading, titanium rod thoracolumbar system utilizing a patented Helical Flange
(a trademark of the Jackson Group) closing

mechanism. This feature minimizes the potential for cross-threading and seat splay, simplifying the implant closing procedure for the surgeon. The
Polaris System is available in 6.35mm and 5.5mm rod diameters, with multi-axial and reduction screw options.

We also market the Biomet® Omega
21 Spinal Fixation System, which features a unique multidirectional coupler and expandable screw, as well as the SpineLink®-II
Spinal Fixation System, which addresses many of the inherent limitations of traditional rod and plate systems. Through the use of a modular titanium link and polydirectional screw, the SpineLink®-II System provides an intrasegmental option for spine fixation, enabling the surgeon to tailor the segmental construction to the patients anatomy.

We offer a variety of spacer products for the thoracolumbar market segment. The Biomet® Ionic Spine Spacer System, for use with the Biomet® Omega 21 Spinal Fixation System or SpineLink®-II Spinal Fixation System, features an open design that allows for optimal bone graft placement
and bone fixation, along with the additional benefit of excellent postoperative x-ray visualization. The GEO Structure® Ovals and Rectangles are manufactured using a proprietary
three-dimensional, interconnected filament design, maximizing the strength of the implant with a minimum amount of metal, resulting in excellent strength characteristics and imaging capabilities. The Solitaire Anterior Spinal System is a stand-alone device with numerous implantation options for intraoperative flexibility. The TPS-TL features a patented
telescoping plate design, allowing the surgeon to fit the implant to the defect, while integrating the functions of an anterior plate and vertebral column spacer. We also offer the ESL
(Elliptically Shaped Lumbar) and Ibex thoracolumbar spacers. Both of these spacers are endplate-sparing designs, reducing the risk of subsidence. In addition, both the ESL and Ibex Systems feature open designs to permit ample space for bone graft placement. The ESL System features an elliptical shape offering optimal surface contact with the vertebral body endplates. The Ibex System is curved to conform to the
anterior shape of the adjacent vertebral body. The ESL and Ibex thoracolumbar spacers are both available with a
PEEK-OPTIMA (a registered trademark of Invibio, Ltd) implant option for increased radiographic fusion assessment.

For cervical applications, the open design of the VueLock® Anterior Cervical Plate System provides surgeons with enhanced visualization of the bone graft both during the actual surgical procedure and postoperatively on x-ray. We also offer the C-TEK Anterior Cervical Plate, which offers a non-constrained, semi-constrained or a completely rigid construct, depending on the surgeons preference. Made of titanium, the C-TEK Plate offers both fixed and variable screws in a wide variety of diameters and lengths. This system also features a unique locking mechanism to prevent screw back out. For cervical and upper
thoracic procedures, we offer the Altius M-INI Occipito-Cervico-Thoracic Spinal Fixation System, which features top-loading
screws and a 3.5mm rod for maximum strength. This system also incorporates Helical Flange Locking Technology. Occipital fixation is also available with the Altius M-INI System, featuring a low-profile plate that is placed independently from the rod, allowing for easier assembly and less rod
contouring. The SpineLink® Anterior Cervical Spinal System is also available, providing an intrasegmental fixation option.

Minimally-invasive surgery is of growing interest in the practice of many spine surgeons. A
minimally-invasive approach to spine surgery has demonstrated the potential for less morbidity, decreased blood loss and less time in rehabilitation. In the minimally-invasive surgery market, we offer the VuePASS Portal Access Surgical System. The VuePASS System allows for traditional open techniques through a minimally-invasive cannula access system and is
compatible with the SpineLink®-II and Array® Spinal Systems. During fiscal 2008, we introduced the Ballista Percutaneous Pedicle Screw System and the AccuVision Minimally Invasive Access System. Both products are expected to be launched
in the United States during fiscal 2009.

To address the vertebral body compression
fracture market, we offer two systems designed for the delivery of materials to weakened bone structures, including the CVD and LP2 Delivery Systems. Through a series of dilating cannulae and various instruments, the systems allow the surgeon to access the anatomy through a percutaneous approach and safely deliver high viscosity material under low, controlled pressure.
The CVD Delivery System offers the ability to biopsy before delivery. During fiscal 2008, we introduced Cobalt V Bone Cement
for vertebroplasty applications.

Bone Substitute and Allograft Materials.
Traditional spinal fusion surgery includes the use of a spinal fixation device in conjunction with a bone substitute or bone graft material to increase the likelihood of successful bone fusion. Pro Osteon® 200R and Pro Osteon® 500R are bone graft substitutes made from marine coral. Both are a resorbable combination of hydroxyapatite and calcium carbonate that
is intended to be replaced with natural bone during the healing process. Pro Osteon® 200R is available as granules, while Pro Osteon® 500R is available in granules and blocks. The Biomet® PlatFORM DBM, derived exclusively from human bone, is an
osteoconductive, osteoinductive and osteogenic matrix. This material consists of freeze-dried flexible and pliable sheets of demineralized bone matrix putty for use as a bone void filler. The Biomet® PlatFORM DBM can be utilized alone or in combination with autologous bone or other forms of allograft and can be rehydrated with bone marrow aspirate for
use in posterolateral spine fusions. Since this matrix has no synthetic additives, this eliminates any surgeon concern regarding toxicity of certain carriers currently used in other DBMs.

Precision Machined Allograft. Many spinal fusion procedures, in both the lumbar and
cervical spine, involve interbody spinal fusion. Surgeons often utilize precision machined allograft spacers to fuse the interbody space. We provide services related to the OsteoStim®
Cervical Allograft Spacer for anterior cervical interbody fusions, the OsteoStim® ALIF Allograft Spacer for anterior lumbar interbody fusions and the OsteoStim® PLIF Allograft Spacer for posterior lumbar interbody fusions, depending on the surgical approach. All three systems are lordotic in shape, have serrated teeth on the top and bottom for added stability, are offered in
various heights and have specific instrumentation to facilitate implantation.

Motion Preservation Products. An Investigational Device Exemption pilot study for the Regain® Lumbar Artificial Disc began in the United States during fiscal 2007. The
Regain® Disc is a one-piece pyrocarbon artificial disc nucleus replacement. The pyrocarbon material has a high level of strength, is biocompatible and extremely resistant to wear. In
addition, Biomet Spine is developing a cervical disc replacement product and the Min-T Lumbar Artificial Disc for total lumbar disc replacement procedures.

Other Products

We also manufacture and
distribute numerous other products, including orthopedic support products (also referred to as softgoods and bracing products), arthroscopy products, operating room supplies, casting materials, general surgical instruments, wound care products and
other surgical products. We manufacture and market arthroscopy products through our subsidiary, Biomet Sports Medicine, LLC, or Biomet Sports Medicine.

Arthroscopy Products. Arthroscopy is a minimally-invasive orthopedic surgical procedure in
which an arthroscope is inserted through a small incision to allow the surgeon direct visualization of the joint. This market is comprised of five product categories: power instruments, manual instruments, visualization products, soft tissue
anchors, and procedure-specific instruments and implants. Our principal arthroscopy products include the EZLoc Femoral Fixation Device, the WasherLoc Tibial Fixation Device, LactoSorb® resorbable fixation devices, the MaxFire Meniscal Repair
Device with ZipLoop Technology, the ToggleLoc Femoral Fixation Device with ZipLoop Technology, the Osseofit Porous Tissue Matrix (Porous Tissue Matrix is a trademark of Kensy Nash Corp.) and MicroMax Suture Anchors.

Orthopedic Support Products. We distribute a line of orthopedic support products under the
Biomet® Bracing tradename, including back braces, knee braces and immobilizers, wrist and forearm splints, cervical collars, shoulder immobilizers, slings, abdominal braces, ankle supports
and a variety of other orthopedic splints.

Product Development

Our research and development efforts are essentially divided into two categories: innovative new technology and evolutionary developments. Most of the innovative new technology development efforts are focused on
biomaterial products, and are managed at the corporate level and take place primarily in Warsaw, Indiana. Evolutionary developments are driven primarily by the individual subsidiaries and include product line extensions and improvements.

##### Table of Contents

We continue to aggressively conduct internal research and development efforts to generate new marketable
products, technologies and materials. In addition, we believe we are well positioned to take advantage of external acquisition and development opportunities. An important component of our strategy has been the formation of strategic alliances to
enhance the development of new musculoskeletal products.

For fiscal 2006, 2007 and the periods from June 1, 2007 through
July 11, 2007 and from July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, we expended approximately $85 million, $94 million, $34 million and $82 million, respectively, on research and development. It is expected that ongoing research and
development expenses will continue to increase. Our principal research and development efforts relate to our orthopedic reconstructive products, spinal fixation devices, revision orthopedic reconstructive products, dental reconstructive devices,
arthroscopy products, resorbable technologies, biomaterial products and autologous therapies. We have launched approximately 800 new products during the past nine fiscal years and plan to introduce approximately 100 new products during fiscal 2009.

Patents and Trademarks

We believe
that patents and other intellectual property will continue to be of importance in the musculoskeletal industry. Accordingly, we continue to protect technology developed internally and to acquire intellectual property rights associated with
technology developed outside the Company. We enforce our intellectual property rights consistent with our strategic business objectives. We do not believe that we have any single patent or license (or series of patents or licenses) that is material
to our operations. We are not aware of any single patent that, if lost or invalidated, would be material to our consolidated revenues or earnings. We currently have more than 1,200 patents and in excess of 650 pending patent applications.

BIOMET is our principal registered trademark throughout the world, and registrations have been obtained or are in process with respect to
various other trademarks associated with our products. Unless otherwise noted in this annual report, all trademarks contained herein are owned by Biomet, Inc. or one of its affiliates and subsidiaries.

Government Regulation

Most aspects of our business
are subject to some degree of government regulation in the countries in which our operations are conducted. It has always been our practice to comply with all regulatory requirements governing our products and operations and to conduct our affairs
in an ethical manner. This practice is reflected in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and through the responsibility of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors to review our systems of internal control, our process for monitoring
compliance with laws and regulations and with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. For some products, and in some areas of the world such as the United States, Canada, Japan and Europe, government regulation is significant and, in general, there
appears to be a trend toward more stringent regulation throughout the world, as well as global harmonization of various regulatory requirements. We devote significant time, effort and expense to addressing the extensive government and regulatory
requirements applicable to our business. Governmental regulatory actions can result in the recall or seizure of products, suspension or revocation of the authority necessary for the production or sale of a product, and other civil and criminal
sanctions. We believe that we are no more or less adversely affected by existing government regulations than are our competitors.

In the
United States, the development, testing, marketing and manufacturing of medical devices are regulated under the Medical Device Amendments of 1976 to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990, the FDA Modernization
Act of 1997, the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002 and additional regulations promulgated by the FDA and various other federal, state and local agencies. In general, these statutes and regulations require that manufacturers
adhere to certain standards designed to ensure the safety and efficacy of medical devices and related medical products.

##### Table of Contents

We believe that we are well positioned to face the changing international regulatory environment. The
International Standards Organization, or the ISO, has an internationally recognized set of standards aimed at ensuring the design and manufacture of quality products. A company that has passed an ISO audit and obtained ISO certification applicable
to its activity sector is internationally recognized as having quality manufacturing processes. The European Union (EU) legislation requires that medical devices bear a CE mark. The CE mark is a European Union and European Free Trade Association
symbol, which indicates that the product adheres to European Medical Device Directives. Compliance with ISO quality systems standards is one of the requirements for placing the CE mark on our products. Each of our principal manufacturing facilities
has been certified to ISO 13485:2003. Each of our products sold in Europe bears the CE mark, with the exception of custom-made implants that do not require a CE mark. The EU has recently reclassified our total joint products to Class III via
Directive 2005/50/EC and we are in the process of complying with this Directive.

In addition, governmental bodies in the United States and
throughout the world have expressed concern about the costs relating to healthcare and, in some cases, have focused attention on the pricing of medical devices. Government regulation regarding pricing of medical devices already exists in some
countries and may be expanded in the United States and other countries in the future. We are subject to increasing pricing pressures worldwide as a result of growing regulatory pressures, as well as the expanding predominance of managed care groups
and institutional and governmental purchasers. Under Title VI of the Social Security Amendments of 1983, hospitals receive a predetermined amount of Medicare reimbursement for treating a particular patient based upon the patients type of
illness identified with reference to the patients diagnosis under one or more of several hundred diagnosis-related groups. Other factors affecting a specific hospitals reimbursement rate include the size of the hospital, its teaching
status and its geographic location.

Further, we are subject to various federal and state laws concerning healthcare fraud and abuse,
including false claims laws and anti-kickback laws. These laws are administered by, among others, the U.S. Department of Justice, the OIG-HHS and the state attorneys general. Many of these agencies have increased their enforcement activities with
respect to medical device manufacturers in recent years. In 2007, we and other major U.S. orthopedic manufacturers entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement and a Corporate Integrity Agreement concerning alleged violations of the federal
Anti-Kickback Statute with the U.S. Department of Justice. As part of this settlement, we entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement and a Corporate Integrity Agreement and paid a civil settlement amount. See Item 1ARisk
FactorsRisks Related To Our Business for more information about our obligations under these agreements. Violations of these laws are punishable by criminal and/or civil sanctions, including, in some instances, fines, imprisonment and,
within the United States, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Administration (VA) health programs.

While we are unable to predict the extent to which our business may be affected by future regulatory developments, we believe that our substantial experience in dealing with governmental regulatory requirements and
restrictions throughout the world, our emphasis on efficient means of distribution and our ongoing development of new and technologically-advanced products should enable us to continue to compete effectively within this increasingly regulated
environment.

Sales and Marketing

We
have diligently worked to attract and retain qualified, well-trained and motivated sales representatives. The breadth of our product offering and the quality of our salesforces collaborate to create synergies that we believe uniquely position us to
continue to efficiently penetrate the musculoskeletal market. In the United States, our products are marketed by a combination of independent commissioned sales agents and direct sales representatives, based on the specific product group being
represented. In an effort to ensure the continuity of our relationships with the independent third-party distributors who represent Biomet Orthopedics, we incurred $39 million in fiscal 2007, $18 million for the period from June 1, 2007 through
July 11, 2007 and $31 million for the period from July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, which negatively affected our results of operations for these

##### Table of Contents

periods. A significant amount of these expenses that were incurred in fiscal 2008 were incurred prior to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2008. In
Europe, our products are promoted by sales representatives employed by subsidiaries, independent third-party distributors, and some independent commissioned sales agents, based primarily on the geographic location. In the rest of the world, we
maintain direct selling organizations in ten countries, as well as independent commissioned sales agents and independent third-party distributors in other key markets. In aggregate, our products are marketed by more than 3,000 sales representatives
throughout the world.

Elective surgery-related products appear to be influenced to some degree by seasonal factors, as the number of
elective procedures declines during the summer months and the winter holiday season. Also, economic factors affect consumer spending on elective surgery.

Our customers are the hospitals, surgeons, other physicians and healthcare providers who use our products in the course of their practices. Our business is dependent upon the relationships maintained by our
distributors and salespersons with these customers, as well as our ability to design and manufacture products that meet the physicians technical requirements at a competitive price.

We have inventory located throughout the world with our customers, our distributors and direct salespersons for their use in marketing our products and
in filling customer orders. As of May 31, 2008, inventory of approximately $236 million was located with these distributors, salespersons and customers.

Competition

Our business is highly competitive. Competition within the industry is primarily based on service, clinical
results and product design, although price competition is an important factor as healthcare providers continue to be concerned with costs. Major competitors in our four product categories are set forth below.

Reconstructive Products

Our orthopedic
reconstructive products compete with those offered by DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc. (a Johnson & Johnson company), Smith & Nephew plc, Stryker Orthopaedics (a division of Stryker Corp.) and Zimmer, Inc. (a subsidiary of Zimmer Holdings,
Inc.). Management believes these four companies, together with Biomet, have the predominant share of the global orthopedic reconstructive device market. We believe that our prices for orthopedic reconstructive products are competitive with those in
the industry. We believe that our future success will depend upon, among other things, our service and responsiveness to our distributors and orthopedic specialists, the continued success of the clinical results of our products, and our ability to
design and market innovative and technologically-advanced products that meet the needs of the market.

Our dental reconstructive devices
compete in the areas of dental reconstructive implants and related products. The primary competitors in the dental implant market include Nobel Biocare AB, Straumann AG, Zimmer Dental Inc. (a division of Zimmer Holdings, Inc.) and Astra Tech (part
of the AstraZeneca Group).

Fixation Devices

Our electrical stimulation devices primarily compete with those offered by Orthofix, Inc. (a subsidiary of Orthofix International N.V.), DJO Inc. (formerly ReAble Therapeutics, Inc.) and Smith & Nephew plc.
Competition in the electrical stimulation market is on the basis of product design, service, price and success rates of various treatment alternatives.

Our external and internal fixation devices compete with other such devices primarily on the basis of price, ease of application and clinical results. The principal competitors in the external fixation market are
Smith & Nephew plc, Stryker Trauma (a division of Stryker Corp.), Synthes, Inc. and Orthofix, Inc. (a subsidiary of Orthofix International N.V.). Our internal fixation product lines compete with those of Synthes, Inc., DePuy Orthopaedics,
Inc. (a Johnson & Johnson company), Zimmer Trauma (a division of Zimmer Holdings, Inc.), Smith & Nephew plc and Stryker Trauma (a division of Stryker Corp.).

Spinal Products

Our spinal fixation systems compete with other spinal fixation systems primarily on the basis of breadth of product line, product recognition and price. The principal competitors in this area are Medtronic Sofamor
Danek, Inc. (a subsidiary of Medtronic, Inc.), DePuy Spine (a Johnson & Johnson company), Synthes, Inc., Stryker Spine (a division of Stryker Corp.), Zimmer Spine Inc. (a division of Zimmer Holdings, Inc.) and others.

Other Products

Our craniomaxillofacial
fixation devices, specialty surgical instrumentation and neurosurgical cranial flap fixation devices compete with those offered by Synthes, Inc., Stryker Leibinger Micro Implants (a division of Stryker Corp.), KLS-Martin, L.P., Osteomed Corp.,
Aesculap, Inc., Medtronic, Inc. and Codman (a Johnson & Johnson company).

Our arthroscopy products compete primarily in the areas
of procedure-specific implants and instruments, manual instruments and power instruments. Competitors include Smith & Nephew Endoscopy (a division of Smith & Nephew plc), Stryker Corp., Linvatec Corp. (a subsidiary of CONMED
Corporation), Mitek (a division of Ethicon, a Johnson & Johnson company), ArthroCare Corp., and Arthrex, Inc.

Our orthopedic
support products consist primarily of back braces, knee braces and immobilizers, wrist and forearm splints, cervical collars, shoulder immobilizers, slings, abdominal braces and ankle supports that compete with those offered by Orthofix, Inc. (a
subsidiary of Orthofix International N.V.), DJO Inc. (formerly ReAble Therapeutics, Inc.) and Ossur. Competition in the bracing market is on the basis of product design, service and price.

Raw Materials and Supplies

The raw materials used in
the manufacture of our orthopedic reconstructive products are principally nonferrous metallic alloys, stainless steel and polyethylene powder. With the exception of limitations on the supply of polyethylene powder, none of our raw material
requirements are limited to any material extent by critical supply or single origins. The demand for certain raw materials used by us, such as cobalt-chromium alloy and titanium may vary. The primary buyers of these metallic alloys are in the
aerospace industry. If the demands of the aerospace industry should increase dramatically, we could experience complications in obtaining these raw materials. However, based on our current relationship with our suppliers, we do not anticipate a
material shortage in the foreseeable future. Further, we believe that our inventory of raw materials is sufficient to meet any short-term supply shortages of metallic alloys. The results of our operations are not materially dependent on raw material
costs.

We purchase all components of our electrical stimulators from approximately 190 outside suppliers, approximately 15 of whom are the
single source of supply for the particular product. In most cases, we believe that all components are replaceable with similar components. In the event of a shortage, there are alternative sources of supply available for all components, but some
time would likely elapse before our orders could be filled.

Coral is the primary
raw material utilized to manufacture certain of our Pro Osteon® products. The coral used in Pro Osteon® products is sourced from
a variety of geographic locations. Our primary source of coral has historically been the tropical areas of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Although we obtain our coral from a single source supplier, for which an alternate supplier has not been
identified, we believe that we have an adequate supply of coral for the foreseeable future.

We purchase all materials to produce our
dental products from approximately 95 suppliers, approximately 87 of whom are the single source of supply for the particular product. We believe that, in the event of a shortage, there are readily available alternative sources of supply for
single-source products, and we maintain an inventory of materials sufficient to meet any short-term shortages of supply.

Employees

As of May 31, 2008, our domestic operations (including Puerto Rico) employed 4,177 persons, of whom 1,233 were engaged in production and 2,944 in research and development, sales, marketing, administrative and clerical efforts. Our
international subsidiaries employed 3,043 persons, of whom 779 were engaged in production and 2,264 in research and development, sales, marketing, administrative and clerical efforts. None of our principal domestic manufacturing employees is
represented by a labor union. The production employees at our Bridgend, South Wales facility are organized. Employees working at the facilities in Berlin and Dieburg, Germany; Valence, France; Swindon, United Kingdom; Sjöbo, Sweden; and
Valencia, Spain are represented by Workers Councils. We believe that our relationship with our employees is satisfactory.

The establishment of our domestic orthopedic reconstructive manufacturing operations in north
central Indiana, near other members of the orthopedic industry, provides access to the highly skilled machine operators required for the manufacture of our products. Our European manufacturing locations in South Wales, England, France, Spain, Sweden
and Germany also provide good sources for skilled manufacturing labor. Our Puerto Rican operations principally involve the assembly of purchased components into finished products using a skilled labor force. Our manufacturing operations in Jinhua,
Zhejiang Province, China are growing and currently include 345 persons which are included in the numbers above.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

The following factors, among
others, could cause our future results to differ from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this report and presented elsewhere by management from time to time. Such factors, among others, may have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations. The risks identified in this section are not exhaustive. We operate in a dynamic and competitive environment. New risk factors affecting us emerge from time to time and it is not possible for
management to predict all such risk factors. Further, it is not possible to assess the impact of all risk factors on our business or the extent to which any single factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from
those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these inherent risks and uncertainties, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Additional risks and uncertainties
not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business or results of operations in the future. In addition, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The following discussion of the Companys risk factors speaks only as of the date on which they were made and should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and related notes included herein. Because of these and other factors, past financial performance should not be considered an indication of future performance. Any of the following risks could materially adversely
affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Risks Relating to Our Business

Our future results depend on the success of our principal product lines.

Sales of our reconstructive products accounted for approximately 74% of our net sales for the period July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008; 72% for the period June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007; approximately
71% of our net sales for fiscal 2007 and approximately 68% of our net sales for fiscal 2006. We expect sales of reconstructive products to continue to account for a significant portion of our aggregate sales. Any event adversely affecting the sale
of reconstructive products may, as a result, adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to
continue to develop and market new products and technologies in a timely manner, the demand for our products may decrease or our products could become obsolete, and our revenue and profitability may decline.

The market for our products is highly competitive and dominated by a small number of large companies. We are regularly engaged in product development,
research and improvement efforts. New products and line



22

##### Table of Contents

extensions of existing products represent a significant component of our growth rate. Our ability to continue to grow sales effectively depends on our
capacity to keep up with existing or new products and technologies in the musculoskeletal products market. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals to market a medical device, particularly from the FDA and certain foreign governmental
authorities, can be costly and time consuming and approvals and clearances might not be granted for future products on a timely basis, if at all. Delays in receipt of, or failure to obtain, approvals and clearances for future products could result
in delayed realization of product revenues or in substantial additional costs which could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. In addition, if our competitors new products and technologies reach the market
before our products, they may gain a competitive advantage or render our products obsolete. See BusinessCompetition elsewhere in this annual report for more information about our competitors. The ultimate success of our product
development efforts will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, our ability to create innovative designs and materials, provide innovative surgical techniques, accurately anticipate and meet customers needs, commercialize new
products in a timely manner, and manufacture and deliver products and instrumentation in sufficient volumes on time.

Moreover, research
and development efforts may require a substantial investment of time and resources before we are adequately able to determine the commercial viability of a new product, technology, material or other innovation. Even in the event that we are able to
successfully develop innovations, they may not produce revenue in excess of the costs of development and may be quickly rendered obsolete as a result of changing customer preferences or the introduction by our competitors of products embodying new
technologies or features.

We and our customers are subject to substantial government regulation and compliance and any potential non-compliance with
these regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The medical devices we design, develop, manufacture and
market are subject to rigorous regulation by the FDA and numerous other federal, state and foreign governmental authorities. Overall, there appears to be a trend toward more stringent regulation throughout the world and we do not anticipate this
trend to dissipate in the near future.

In general, the development, testing, manufacturing and marketing of our products are subject to
extensive regulation and review by numerous governmental authorities both in the United States and abroad. The regulatory process requires the expenditure of significant time, effort and expense to bring new products to market. In addition, we are
required to implement and maintain stringent reporting, labeling and record keeping procedures. The medical device industry also is subject to a myriad of complex laws governing Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement and health care fraud and abuse
laws, with these laws and regulations being very complex and subject to interpretation. In many instances, the industry does not have the benefit of significant regulatory or judicial interpretation of these laws and regulations. In certain public
statements, governmental authorities have taken positions on issues for which little official interpretation was previously available. Some of these positions appear to be inconsistent with common practices within the industry but have not
previously been challenged.

Various federal and state agencies have become increasingly vigilant in recent years in their investigation of
various business practices. Governmental and regulatory actions against us can result in various actions that could adversely impact our operations, including:



| |  |  | the recall or seizure of products;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | the suspension or revocation of the authority necessary for the production or sale of a product;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the suspension of shipments from particular manufacturing facilities;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the imposition of fines and penalties;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | the delay of our ability to introduce new products into the market;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | the exclusion of our products from being reimbursed by federal and state health care programs (such as Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Administration health programs
and Civilian Health and Medical Program Uniformed Service, or CHAMPUS); and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other civil or criminal sanctions against us.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------

Any of these actions, in combination or alone, or even a public announcement that we are being investigated for possible violations of these laws, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

In many of the foreign countries in which we market our products, we are subject to regulations
affecting, among other things: clinical efficacy, product standards, packaging requirements, labeling requirements, import/export restrictions, tariff regulations, duties and tax requirements. Many of the regulations applicable to our devices
and products in these countries, such as the European Medical Devices Directive, are similar to those of the FDA. In addition, in many countries the national health or social security organizations require our products to be qualified before they
can be marketed with the benefit of reimbursement eligibility. Failure to receive or delays in the receipt of, relevant foreign qualifications also could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As both the U.S. and foreign government regulators have become increasingly stringent, we may be subject to more rigorous regulation by
governmental authorities in the future. Our products and operations are also often subject to the rules of industrial standards bodies, such as the International Standards Organization. If we fail to adequately address any of these regulations, our
business will be harmed.

We, like other companies in the orthopedic industry, are involved in ongoing investigations by the U.S. Department of
Justice, the results of which may adversely impact our business and results of operations.

In June 2006, we received a federal
grand jury subpoena issued at the request of the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, requesting documents for the period from January 2001 through June 2006 regarding possible violations of federal criminal law, including possible
violations of the antitrust laws, relating to the manufacture and sale of orthopedic implant devices. We are aware of similar subpoenas directed to other companies in the orthopedic industry. We have cooperated and intend to continue to fully
cooperate with the Department of Justice investigation. The result of this investigation may not be known for several years. However, the scope of the June 2006 subpoena was narrowed to a specific geographic region and specific product lines. It is
our belief that the other orthopedic companies that received similar subpoenas have received similar guidance. It is our belief that the investigation was prompted by an unsolicited e-mail sent by a representative of one of our competitors that
proposed a common pricing strategy in connection with a particular hospital. This e-mail was received by an independent sales representative of an independent distributor for Biomet Orthopedics, but it was never transmitted to us. Biomet, Inc., the
independent distributor, nor the independent sales representative took any action in response to the e-mail, and we believe that no anticompetitive activity took place as a result of it. We require compliance by our employees and our independent
distributors with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and with applicable antitrust laws. On March 26, 2008, we received a letter from a representative of the Department of Justice, Antitrust Division I, advising that the Department has
closed its grand jury investigation of antitrust and related offenses in the orthopedic implants industry.

We have received complaints in
class action lawsuits alleging violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act that raise the same antitrust issues as the U.S. Department of Justice investigation described above. The complaints also named various other companies in the orthopedic industry
as defendants. These cases were consolidated under the caption In Re Orthopedic Implant Device Antitrust Litigation, Case No. 1:07-ml-9831-JDT-WTL with the United States District Court Southern District Indianapolis, Indiana Division, and on
October 18, 2007 were voluntarily dismissed without prejudice.

In May 2007, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice through the U.S. Attorney for the
Southern District of West Virginia requesting documents generally relating to a certain number of products manufactured, marketed and sold by the EBI subsidiary for the period from January 1999 through the present. In June 2007, we received a second
administrative subpoena from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of West Virginia requesting documents relating to a specific physicians assistant. We understand that the Department of Justice is conducting a civil investigation of
EBIs sales and marketing practices relating to certain spinal products. We are fully cooperating with the request of the Department of Justice. We can make no assurances as to the time or resources that will be needed to devote to this inquiry
or its final outcome.

From time to time, we have been, and may be in the future, the subject of additional investigations. If, as a result
of these investigations, we are found to have violated one or more applicable laws, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. If some of our existing business practices are challenged as
unlawful, we may have to change those practices, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we fail to comply with the terms of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement or the Corporate Integrity Agreement we entered into in September 2007, our results of operation and financial condition could be materially and adversely
affected.

As discussed in Legal Proceedings, on September 27, 2007 we entered into a Deferred Prosecution
Agreement with the U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of New Jersey. The agreement concludes the governments investigation into whether consulting agreements between the largest orthopedic manufacturers and orthopedic surgeons who
use joint reconstruction and replacement products may have violated the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. Through the agreement, the U.S. Attorneys Office has agreed not to prosecute Biomet, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary Biomet
Orthopedics, Inc. in connection with this matter, provided that we satisfy our obligations under the agreement for 18 months subsequent to September 27, 2007. The agreement calls for the appointment of an independent monitor to review our compliance
with the agreement, particularly in relation to our consulting agreements. Please see Legal Proceedings for certain regulatory and governmental investigations the outcomes of which could have a material adverse impact on our ability to
comply with the terms of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement.

As part of the resolution of this matter, we entered into a $26.9 million
settlement with the Department of Justices Civil Division and we also entered into a Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or OIG-HHS. The agreement requires
us for 5 years subsequent to September 27, 2007 to continue to adhere to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and certain other provisions, including reporting requirements.

The Deferred Prosecution Agreement imposes a number of continuing obligations on us for the duration of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement, including the
obligation not to engage in any criminal conduct, and contains provisions permitting the Department of Justice in certain circumstances in its discretion to pursue remedies against us if we have knowingly and willfully breached any material
provisions of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement or engaged in criminal conduct relating to our compliance with health care laws subsequent to September 27, 2007, including excluding us from participation in federal healthcare programs and
prosecution against us for violating the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which would have a material adverse effect on our business results of operation and financial condition. Please see Legal Proceedings for certain ongoing regulatory
and governmental investigations involving us.

Compliance with the terms of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement and Corporate Integrity Agreement
requires cooperation by many employees and others and may divert substantial financial and human resources from our other business activities.

We are committed to continue to devote sufficient resources to meet our obligations under the Deferred Prosecution Agreement and Corporate Integrity Agreement. Compliance with these agreements requires

substantial cooperation of our employees, distributors and sales agents and the healthcare professionals with whom they interact. These efforts not only
involve expense, but also require management and other key employees to focus extensively on these matters.

The ongoing informal investigation by
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice regarding potential violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in the sale of medical devices in a number of foreign countries by companies in the
medical device industry could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

On
September 25, 2007, we received a letter from the SEC informing us that it is conducting an informal investigation regarding possible violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in the sale of medical devices in certain foreign countries by
companies in the medical devices industry. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prohibits U.S. companies and their officers, directors, employees, shareholders acting on their behalf and agents from offering, promising, authorizing or making payments
to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business abroad or otherwise obtaining favorable treatment and this law requires companies to maintain records which fairly and accurately reflect transactions and to maintain internal
accounting controls. In many countries, hospitals and clinics are government-owned and healthcare professionals employed by such hospitals and clinics, with whom we regularly interact, may meet the definition of a foreign official for purposes of
the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. If we are found to have violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, we may face sanctions including fines, criminal penalties, disgorgement of profits and suspension or debarment of our ability to contract with
government agencies or receive export licenses. On November 9, 2007, we received a letter from the Department of Justice requesting any information provided to the SEC be provided to the Department of Justice on a voluntary basis. We intend to
fully cooperate with both requests and we are in the process of conducting our own review relating to these matters in certain countries in which we and our distributors conduct business and have met and expect to continue to meet with the SEC and
the DOJ to update them on the status of our review.

We could be subject to further governmental investigations or actions by other third parties as
a result of our recent settlement with the Department of Justice and OIG-HHS.

As discussed in Business-Government
Regulation, we are subject to various federal and state laws concerning healthcare fraud and abuse, including false claims laws and anti-kickback laws. Violations of these laws are punishable by criminal and/or civil sanctions, including, in
some instances, fines, imprisonment and, within the United States, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Administration (VA) health programs. These laws are administered by, among
others, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services and state attorneys general. Many of these agencies have increased their enforcement activities with respect to medical device
manufacturers in recent years.

As discussed in Legal Proceedings, the SEC has commenced an informal investigation into
sales by us and other companies of medical devices in foreign countries. In addition, we are in the process of conducting our own review relating to these matters and are also cooperating with the U.S. Department of Justice and one state attorney
general. While we believe that the pending state investigation is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition additional claims or investigations by private plaintiffs or other states or governmental agencies
are possible. We intend to review and take appropriate actions with respect to any such investigations or proceedings; however, we cannot assure that the costs of defending or fines imposed in resolving those civil or criminal investigations or
proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We conduct a significant amount of our sales activity outside of the United States, which subjects us to additional
business risks and may adversely affect our results due to increased costs.

During the period July 12, 2007 to May 31,
2008, the period June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007, and fiscal 2007 and 2006, we derived approximately $883.1 million, or 41% of our net sales, $92.6 million, or 37% of our net sales, $800.9 million, or 38% of our net sales, and $700.6
million, or 35% of our net sales, respectively, from sales of our products outside of the United States. We intend to continue to pursue growth opportunities in sales internationally, which could expose us to additional risks associated with
international sales and operations. Our international operations are, and will continue to be, subject to a number of risks and potential costs, including:



| |  |  | changes in foreign medical reimbursement policies and programs;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unexpected changes in foreign regulatory requirements;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | differing local product preferences and product requirements;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diminished protection of intellectual property in some countries outside of the United States;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | trade protection measures and import or export licensing requirements;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulty in staffing, training and managing foreign operations;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | differing legal and labor regulations;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | potentially negative consequences from changes in tax laws; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | political and economic instability.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------

In addition, we are subject to risks arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could increase our costs and may adversely affect our results. The U.S. dollar value of our foreign-generated revenues varies with currency
exchange rate fluctuations. Measured in local currency, the majority of our foreign-generated revenues were generated in Europe. Significant increases in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies could have a material adverse
effect on our results of operations. Our consolidated net sales were positively affected by approximately 4% during fiscal 2008 as a result of the impact of foreign currency translation. At the present time, we do not engage in hedging transactions
related to net sales to protect against uncertainty in future exchange rates between any particular foreign currency and the U.S. dollar.

Any of these factors may, individually or as a group, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We conduct manufacturing operations outside of the United States and are in the process of transitioning certain manufacturing operations to China, which will expose us to additional business risks.

In addition to our principal executive offices, we maintain more than 50 other manufacturing facilities, offices and warehouse facilities in various
countries, including Canada, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.

We currently conduct operations in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province,
China. Our future business strategy involves the operation of other manufacturing facilities in China. As a result of this initiative, we may be exposed to additional risks inherent in operating in an emerging market like China where we have
not previously operated a manufacturing facility. In recent years the Chinese economy has undergone various developments, including beginning the transition from a more heavily government influenced-planned economy to a more market-oriented economy.
Despite this transition, the Chinese government continues to own significant production assets and exercises significant control over economic growth. Our international operations, including our planned expansion in China, may be subject to greater
or new political, legal and economic risks than those faced by our operations in the United States, including such risks as those arising from:



| |  |  | unexpected changes in foreign or domestic legal, regulatory or governmental requirements or approvals, such as those related to taxation, lending, import and
tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, intellectual property and other matters;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | operating in a market with a less developed supply chain, transportation and distribution infrastructure.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Due to these inherent risks, there can be no assurance that we will achieve any anticipated benefits from transitioning manufacturing operations to China
and any of these factors may, individually or as a group, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business and financial performance may be adversely affected by our inability to effectively implement restructuring and cost saving initiatives.

Following consummation of the Merger, we commenced plans for a global cost savings program targeting pre-tax savings of $65 million on an annualized
basis. The program includes the transition of certain manufacturing operations to China, the restructuring of our domestic and international corporate structure and improvements to operating processes (including manufacturing footprint optimization,
implementation of Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing, procurement and offshoring initiatives, as well as reduction in overhead expenses). Projected costs and savings associated with these initiatives are subject to a variety of risks, including:



| |  |  | contemplated costs to effect these initiatives may exceed estimates;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | initiatives we are contemplating may require consultation with various employees, labor representatives or regulators, and such consultations may influence the
timing, costs and extent of expected savings;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | initiatives will also require close coordination with customers with respect to the transfer of existing business to other company locations, and certain business
may not ultimately be retained as a result of the possible transition of certain operations;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | management changes at various strategic business units, including Biomet Trauma and Biomet Spine, may be unsuccessful in improving or stabilizing our business at
those strategic business units;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the loss of skilled employees in connection with the initiatives; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | projected savings contemplated under this program may fall short of targets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

While we have begun and expect to continue to implement, these strategies, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so successfully or that
we will realize the projected benefits of these and other restructuring and cost saving initiatives. If we are unable to realize these anticipated cost reductions, our business may be adversely affected. Moreover, our continued implementation of
restructuring and cost saving initiatives integration may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business may be harmed as a result of litigation.

Our involvement in the manufacture and sale of medical devices
creates exposure to significant risk of product liability claims, particularly in the United States. In the past, we have received product liability claims relating to our products and anticipate that we will continue to receive claims in the
future, some of which could have a material adverse impact on our business. In addition, we could experience a material design or manufacturing failure in our products, a quality system failure, other safety issues or heightened regulatory scrutiny
that would warrant a recall of some of our products. Our existing product liability insurance coverage



28



---

##### Table of Contents

may be inadequate to satisfy liabilities we might incur. If a product liability claim or series of claims is brought against us for uninsured liabilities or
is in excess of our insurance coverage limits, our business could suffer and our results could be materially adversely impacted.

In
addition, the musculoskeletal products industry is highly litigious with respect to the enforcement of patents and other intellectual property rights. In some cases, intellectual property litigation may be used to gain a competitive advantage. We
have in the past and may in the future become a party to lawsuits involving patents or other intellectual property. A legal proceeding, regardless of the outcome, could put pressure on our financial resources and divert the time, energy and efforts
of our management.

We may be subject to intellectual property litigation and infringement claims, which could cause us to incur significant expenses
or prevent us from selling our products.

A successful claim of patent or other intellectual property infringement against us could
adversely affect our growth and results of operation, in some cases materially. From time to time, we receive notices from third parties of potential infringement and receive claims of potential infringement. We may be unaware of intellectual
property rights of others that may cover some of our technology. If someone claims that our products infringed their intellectual property rights, any resulting litigation could be costly and time consuming and would divert the attention of
management and key personnel from other business issues.

The complexity of the technology involved and the uncertainty of intellectual
property litigation increase these risks. Claims of intellectual property infringement also might require us to enter into costly royalty or license agreements. However, we may be unable to obtain royalty or license agreements on terms acceptable to
us or at all. We also may be subject to significant damages or an injunction preventing us from manufacturing, selling or using some of our products in the event of a successful claim of patent or other intellectual property infringement. Any of
these adverse consequences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we are not able
to fulfill or otherwise resolve our existing royalty and other payment obligations to consulting surgeons and institutions, our ability to maintain our existing intellectual property rights and obtain future rights may be impaired.

We are reviewing agreements we have entered into with consulting surgeons and institutions and assessing whether we continue those
agreements in light of our obligations under the Deferred Prosecution Agreement. If we are not able to continue these agreements, our ability to use the intellectual property covered by those agreements may be adversely affected. In addition, our
ability to enter into new agreements with consulting surgeons or institutions for the future development of intellectual property rights may be adversely affected.

Sales may decline if our customers do not receive adequate levels of reimbursement from third-party payors for our products and if certain types of healthcare programs are adopted in our key markets.

In the United States, healthcare providers that purchase our products (e.g., hospitals, physicians, dentists and other health care providers)
generally rely on payments from third-party payors (principally federal Medicare, state Medicaid and private health insurance plans) to cover all or a portion of the cost of our musculoskeletal products. These third-party payors may deny
reimbursement if they determine that a device used in a procedure was not in accordance with cost-effective treatment methods, as determined by the third-party payor, or was used for an unapproved indication. Third-party payors may also decline to
reimburse for experimental procedures and devices. In the event that third-party payors deny coverage or reduce their current levels of reimbursement, we may be unable to sell certain products on a profitable basis, thereby materially adversely
impacting our results of operations. Further, third-party payors are continuing to carefully review their coverage policies with respect to existing and new therapies and can, without notice, deny coverage for treatments that may include the use of
our products.



29

##### Table of Contents

In addition, some healthcare providers in the United States have adopted, or are considering the adoption
of, a managed care system in which the providers contract to provide comprehensive healthcare for a fixed cost per person. Healthcare providers in a managed care system may attempt to control costs by authorizing fewer elective surgical procedures,
including joint reconstructive surgeries, or by requiring the use of the least expensive implant available. In response to these and other pricing pressures, our competitors may lower the prices for their products. We may not be able to match the
prices offered by our competitors, thereby adversely impacting our results of operations and future prospects. Further, in the event that the United States considers the adoption of a national healthcare system in which prices are controlled and
patient care is managed by the government, such regulation could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Outside of the United States, reimbursement systems vary significantly from country to country. In the majority of the international markets in which our products are sold, government-managed healthcare systems
mandate the reimbursement rates and methods for medical devices and procedures. If adequate levels of reimbursement from third-party payors outside of the United States are not obtained, international sales of our products may decline. Many foreign
markets, including Canada, and some European and Asian countries, have tightened reimbursement rates. Our ability to continue to sell certain products profitably in these markets may diminish if the government-managed healthcare systems continue to
reduce reimbursement rates.

Our management has identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting and has concluded
that our internal controls over financial reporting was ineffective as of May 31, 2008.

We are required to assess the
effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting on an annual basis and to include in our annual report on Form 10-K managements report on that assessment. If there are any material weaknesses in internal control over financial
reporting that are identified, then our management is not permitted to conclude in its report that our internal control over financial reporting is effective. This assessment resulted in the identification of a material weakness in our internal
controls over financial reporting. Consequently, our management has concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of May 31, 2008. We have identified a material weakness related to multiple control
deficiencies in the order to cash process in both the design and operation of controls at one of our subsidiaries, BTBS. A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting,
such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management is in the process of developing remediation steps to correct
the material weakness that was identified. We cannot be certain our remediation efforts will ensure that our management designs, implements and maintains adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future or will be
sufficient to address and eliminate the material weakness identified. Our inability to remedy the identified material weakness or any additional deficiencies or material weaknesses could, among other things, cause accounting errors or other
inaccuracies in our financial statements or could cause us to fail to file our periodic reports with the SEC in a timely manner or require us to incur additional costs or to divert management resources. Due to its inherent limitations, even
effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentations. These limitations may not prevent or detect all misstatements or fraud, regardless of their
effectiveness.

We are subject to cost-containment efforts of group purchasing organizations, which may have a material adverse effect on our results
of operations and financial condition.

Many customers of our products have joined group purchasing organizations in an effort to
contain costs. Group purchasing organizations negotiate pricing arrangements with medical supply manufacturers and distributors, and these negotiated prices are made available to a group purchasing organizations affiliated hospitals and other
members. If we are not one of the providers selected by a group purchasing organization, affiliated hospitals and other members may be less likely to purchase our products and if the group purchasing

##### Table of Contents

organization has negotiated a strict compliance contract for another manufacturers products, we may be precluded from making sales to members of the
group purchasing organization for the duration of the contractual arrangement. Our failure to respond to the cost-containment efforts of group purchasing organizations may cause us to lose market share to our competitors and could have a material
adverse effect on our sales, results of operations and financial condition.

Loss of our key management and other personnel, or an inability to
attract such management and other personnel, could impact our business.

We depend on our senior managers and other key personnel to
run our business and on technical experts to develop new products and technologies. The loss of any of these senior managers or other key personnel could adversely affect our operations. Competition for qualified employees is intense, and the loss
of qualified employees or an inability to attract, retain and motivate additional highly skilled employees required for the management, operation and expansion of our business could hinder our ability to expand, conduct research and development
activities successfully and develop marketable products.

Increased costs of retaining existing independent sales agents of our products have
negatively affected our results of operations and if we fail to retain our existing relationships with these independent sales agents or establish relationships with different agents, our results of operations may be negatively impacted.

Our revenues and results of operations depend largely on the ability of independent sales agents to sell our products to customers.
Typically, these agents have developed long-standing relationships with our customers and provide our customers with the necessary training and product support relating to our products. The average tenure of our independent sales agents within our
subsidiary Biomet Orthopedics, LLC, or Biomet Orthopedics, is nine years.

Following the announcement of the Merger Agreement, in an
attempt to exploit the uncertainty related to the pending transaction, one of our direct competitors approached the independent sales agents we work with and offered them incentives to discontinue their existing relationships with us. In an effort
to ensure the continuity of our relationships with the independent third-party distributors who represent Biomet Orthopedics, we incurred $39 million in fiscal 2007, $18 million for the period from June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007
and $82 million for the period from July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, of compensation related pay-outs, which negatively affected our results of operations for these periods. A significant amount of these expenses that were incurred in
fiscal 2008 were incurred prior to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2008. In addition, we and Biomet Orthopedics recently initiated legal proceedings in Marion County, Indiana against a direct competitor and certain former independent sales
agents related to the foregoing. See Legal Proceedings elsewhere in this annual report. If we fail to retain our existing relationships with these agents or establish relationships with different agents, our results of operations may be
negatively impacted.

A natural or man-made disaster could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We have approximately 21 manufacturing operations located throughout the world. However, a significant portion of our products are produced at and shipped
from our facility in Warsaw, Indiana. In the event that this facility is severely damaged or destroyed as a result of a natural or man-made disaster, we would be forced to shift production to our other facilities and/or rely on third-party
manufacturers. Such an event could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Any expansion or
acquisition may prove risky for us.

We may, from time to time, consider and take advantage of selected opportunities to grow by
acquiring businesses whose operations or product lines fit well within our existing businesses or whose geographic location or market position would enable us to expand into new markets. Our ability to implement this expansion strategy



31



---

##### Table of Contents

will, however, depend on whether any suitable businesses are available at suitable valuations, how much money we can spend and maintaining our customer base.
Any acquisition that we make could be subject to a number of risks, including, failing to discover liabilities of the acquired company for which we may be responsible as a Successor owner or operator despite any investigation we may make before the
acquisition, our ability to assimilate the operations and personnel of the acquired company, the loss of key personnel in the acquired company and any impact on our financial statements from the amortization of acquired intangible assets or the
creation of reserves or write-downs. We may not be able to adequately meet these challenges, and any failure to do so could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, if we incur additional
indebtedness to finance these acquisitions, the related risks we face from our already substantial level of indebtedness could intensify.

Risks Related
to Our Indebtedness

Our substantial level of indebtedness could materially adversely affect our ability to generate sufficient cash to fulfill
our obligations under our existing indebtedness, our ability to react to changes in our business and our ability to incur additional indebtedness to fund future needs.

We are highly leveraged. As of May 31, 2008, we had total indebtedness of approximately $6,300.8 million. The following chart shows our level of
indebtedness as of May 31, 2008:



|                                                     |  |   |

After the Transactions, our interest expense, net for the period July 12, 2007 to
May 31, 2008 was $516.3 million. As of May 31, 2008, we had outstanding approximately $3,683.5 million in aggregate principal amount of indebtedness under our senior secured credit facilities that bear interest at a floating rate. We
have entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rates on approximately 78% of the borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities. See Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market
RiskInterest Rate Risk. An increase of 0.125% in these floating rates would increase our annual interest expense on the borrowings that are not subject to the interest rate swap agreements by approximately $2.0 million.

Our substantial level of indebtedness increases the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient to pay, when due, the principal of,
interest on or other amounts due in respect of our indebtedness. Our substantial indebtedness, combined with our other financial obligations and contractual commitments, could have important consequences for our creditors, including our noteholders.
For example, it could:

Restrictions imposed by the indentures governing the notes, our senior secured
credit facilities and our other outstanding indebtedness may limit our ability to operate our business and to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities.

The terms of our senior secured credit facilities and the indentures governing the notes restrict us and our subsidiaries from engaging in specified types
of transactions. These covenants restrict our and our restricted subsidiaries ability, among other things, to:



| |  |  | incur additional indebtedness;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | pay dividends on our capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire our capital stock or indebtedness;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make investments, loans, advances and acquisitions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from our restricted subsidiaries;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | engage in transactions with our affiliates;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | sell assets, including capital stock of our subsidiaries;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | consolidate or merge;
| | - |  | ---------------------



| |  |  | create liens; and
| | - |  | -----------------



| |  |  | enter into sale and lease-back transactions.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------

In addition, although the agreements governing our senior secured credit facilities and the indentures governing the notes do not require us to comply with any financial ratio maintenance covenants, if less than $35 million (plus 10%
of any increased commitments thereunder) were available under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility at any time, we would not be permitted to borrow any additional amounts under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit
facility unless we maintain a certain pro forma ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures minus Cash Taxes to (b) Consolidated Fixed Charges (as such terms are defined in our senior secured asset-based revolving credit
facility). In the event of a default under any of our senior secured credit facilities, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the agreements governing our senior secured credit facilities to be immediately due and payable.
If the indebtedness under our senior secured credit facilities or the notes were to be accelerated, our assets may not be sufficient to repay such indebtedness in full. In particular, noteholders will be paid only if we have assets remaining after
we pay amounts due on our secured indebtedness, including our senior secured credit facilities. As of May 31, 2008:



| |  |  | we have an additional approximately $400 million of borrowing capacity under our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility, which, if borrowed, would be
senior indebtedness;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | we and the guarantors have the option to increase the asset-based revolving credit facility commitments under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit
facility by up to $100 million, which, if borrowed, would be senior secured indebtedness; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we and the guarantors have $111 million available for borrowing under our European line of credit
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, under the senior toggle notes, we have the option to elect to pay PIK interest for five years after September 25, 2007 for any interest
period. In the event we make a PIK interest election in each period in which we are entitled to make such an election, our debt will increase by the amount of such interest.

We, including our subsidiaries, will have the ability to incur substantially more indebtedness, including senior secured indebtedness.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. Although the agreements governing our indebtedness contain
restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a number of significant qualifications and exceptions, and under certain circumstances, the amount of indebtedness that could be incurred in compliance with
these restrictions could be substantial. In addition to the $750 million which is available to us for borrowing under the revolving credit facilities, we have the option to increase the amount available under the term loan and revolving credit
facilities by an amount which would cause our senior secured leverage ratio, as defined in our credit agreements, to be no higher than 4.5 to 1. As of May 31, 2008, that amount was approximately $300 million. If new debt is added to our and our
subsidiaries existing debt levels, the related risks that we now face would increase.

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to
service all of our indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness, which may not be successful.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance, which is subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to
certain financial, business and other factors beyond our control. We may not be able to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness,
including the notes.

If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to
reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or to sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. Our ability to restructure or refinance our debt will depend on the condition of the capital markets and
our financial condition at such time. Any refinancing of our debt could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our business operations. The terms of existing or future debt
instruments and the indentures governing the notes may restrict us from adopting some of these alternatives. In addition, any failure to make payments of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness on a timely basis would likely result in
a reduction of our credit rating, which could harm our ability to incur additional indebtedness. In the absence of such operating results and resources, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets
or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. Our senior secured credit facilities and the indentures governing the notes restrict our ability to dispose of assets and use the proceeds from the disposition. We may not be able to
consummate those dispositions or to obtain the proceeds that we could realize from them and these proceeds may not be adequate to meet any debt service obligations then due. These alternative measures may not be successful and may not permit us to
meet our scheduled debt service obligations.

Our noteholders right to receive payments on each series of notes is effectively junior to the
right of lenders who have a security interest in our assets to the extent of the value of those assets.

Our obligations under the
notes and our guarantors obligations under their guarantees of the notes are unsecured, but our obligations under our senior secured credit facilities and each guarantors obligations under its

##### Table of Contents

guarantee of our senior secured credit facilities are secured by a security interest in substantially all of our domestic tangible and intangible assets,
including the stock of substantially all of our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries and a portion of the stock of certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries. If we are declared bankrupt or insolvent, or if we default under our senior secured credit facilities,
the lenders could declare all of the funds borrowed thereunder, together with accrued interest, immediately due and payable. If we were unable to repay such indebtedness, the lenders could foreclose on the pledged assets to the exclusion of holders
of the notes, even if an event of default exists under the indentures governing the notes at such time. Furthermore, if the lenders foreclose and sell the pledged equity interests in any guarantor under the notes, then that guarantor will be
released from its guarantee of the notes automatically and immediately upon such sale. In any such event, because the notes are not secured by any of our assets or the equity interests in the guarantors, it is possible that there would be no assets
remaining from which claims of holders of the notes could be satisfied or, if any assets remained, they might be insufficient to satisfy their claims in full. See Description of Other Indebtedness.

As of May 31, 2008, we had:



| |  |  | an additional approximately $400 million of borrowing capacity under our senior secured cash flow revolving facility, which, if borrowed, would be senior
secured indebtedness;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an additional $350 million available for borrowing under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, subject to borrowing base limitations,
which, if borrowed, would be senior secured indebtedness;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the option to incur additional incremental term loans or increase the cash flow revolving credit facility commitments under our senior secured cash flow facilities
of up to an amount that would cause our Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in our senior secured cash flow facilities) to be equal to or less than 4.50 to 1.00, which, if borrowed, would be senior secured indebtedness; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the option to increase the senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility commitments under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility by up to
$100 million, which, if borrowed, would be senior secured indebtedness.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Repayment of our debt is dependent on cash flow generated
by our subsidiaries.

Our subsidiaries own a significant portion of our assets and conduct a significant portion of our operations.
Accordingly, repayment of our indebtedness is dependent, to a significant extent, on the generation of cash flow by our subsidiaries and their ability to make such cash available to us, by dividend, debt repayment or otherwise. Unless they are
guarantors of the indebtedness, our subsidiaries do not have any obligation to pay amounts due on our indebtedness or to make funds available for that purpose. Our subsidiaries may not be able to, or may not be permitted to, make distributions to
enable us to make payments in respect of our indebtedness. Each subsidiary is a distinct legal entity and, under certain circumstances, legal and contractual restrictions may limit our ability to obtain cash from our subsidiaries. While the
indentures governing the notes limit the ability of our subsidiaries to incur consensual restrictions on their ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany payments to us, these limitations are subject to certain qualifications and
exceptions. In the event that we do not receive distributions from our subsidiaries, we may be unable to make required principal and interest payments on our indebtedness.

Claims of noteholders will be structurally subordinated to claims of creditors of all our non-U.S. subsidiaries and some of our U.S. subsidiaries because they will not guarantee the notes.

The notes are not guaranteed by any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries or any of our less than wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries. Accordingly, claims of holders of
the notes will be structurally subordinated to the claims of creditors of these non-guarantor subsidiaries, including trade creditors. All obligations of our non-guarantor subsidiaries will have to be satisfied before any of the assets of such
subsidiaries would be available for distribution, upon a liquidation or otherwise, to us or a guarantor of the notes.

##### Table of Contents

For the year ended May 31, 2007 and for the periods from June 1, 2007 through July 11,
2007 and from July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, our non-guarantor subsidiaries accounted for approximately $780 million, or 37% of our consolidated net sales, $83 million, or 33% of our consolidated net sales, and $500 million, or 23% of
our consolidated net sales, for such periods, respectively. As of May 31, 2008, our non-guarantor subsidiaries accounted for approximately $4,242 million, or 35%, of our consolidated long-term assets. All amounts are presented after giving
effect to intercompany eliminations.

The lenders under our senior secured cash flow facilities will have the discretion to release any guarantors
under these facilities in a variety of circumstances, which will cause those guarantors to be released from their guarantees of the notes.

While any obligations under our senior secured cash flow facilities remain outstanding, any guarantee of the notes may be released without action by, or consent of, any holder of the notes or the trustee under the indentures governing the
notes, at the discretion of lenders under our senior secured cash flow facilities, if the related guarantor is no longer a guarantor of obligations under our senior secured cash flow facilities or any other indebtedness. The lenders under our senior
secured cash flow facilities will have the discretion to release the guarantees under our senior secured cash flow facilities in a variety of circumstances. Noteholders will not have a claim as a creditor against any subsidiary that is no longer a
guarantor of the notes, and the indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, whether secured or unsecured, of those subsidiaries will effectively be senior to claims of noteholders.

Our noteholders right to receive payments on the senior subordinated notes is junior to the rights of the lenders under our senior secured credit facilities
and all of our other senior debt (including the senior notes) and any of our future senior indebtedness.

The senior subordinated
notes are general unsecured senior subordinated obligations that rank junior in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior indebtedness. As of May 31, 2008, we had:



| |  |  | approximately $5,283 million of senior indebtedness outstanding (including $1,550 million in aggregate principal amount of the senior notes and
$3,733 million of borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities);
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an additional approximately $326 million of borrowing capacity under our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility, which, if borrowed, would be
senior indebtedness;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an additional $350 million available for borrowing under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, subject to borrowing base limitations,
which, if borrowed, would be senior indebtedness;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the option to incur additional incremental term loans or increase the cash flow revolving credit facility commitments under our senior secured cash flow facilities
of up to an amount that would cause our Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in our senior secured cash flow facilities) to be equal to or less than 4.50 to 1.00, which, if borrowed, would be senior indebtedness;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the option to increase the asset-based revolving credit facility commitments under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility by up to
$100 million, which, if borrowed would be senior indebtedness; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an additional $111 million available for borrowing under our European line of credit, which, if borrowed, would be senior indebtedness.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, under the senior toggle notes, we will have the option to elect to pay PIK interest for five years after
the closing date for any interest period other than the initial interest period. In the event we make a PIK interest election in this period in which we are entitled to make such an election, our debt will increase by the amount of such interest and
such additional debt would be senior indebtedness.

We may not pay principal, premium, if any, interest or other amounts on account of the
senior subordinated notes in the event of a payment default or certain other defaults in respect of certain of our senior indebtedness,

##### Table of Contents

including the senior notes and borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, unless the senior indebtedness has been paid in full or the default has
been cured or waived. In addition, in the event of certain other defaults with respect to certain of our senior indebtedness, we may not be permitted to pay any amount on account of the senior subordinated notes for a designated period of time.

Because of the subordination provisions in the senior subordinated notes, in the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or dissolution, our
assets will not be available to pay obligations under the senior subordinated notes until we have made all payments in cash on our senior indebtedness. Sufficient assets may not remain after all these payments have been made to make any payments on
the senior subordinated notes, including payments of principal or interest when due.

If we default on our obligations to pay our other indebtedness,
we may not be able to make payments on the notes.

Any default under the agreements governing our indebtedness, including a default
under our senior secured credit facilities that is not waived by the required lenders, and the remedies sought by the holders of such indebtedness, could prevent us from paying principal, premium, if any, and interest on the notes and substantially
decrease the market value of the notes. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow and are otherwise unable to obtain funds necessary to meet required payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness, or if we
otherwise fail to comply with the various covenants, including financial and operating covenants in the instruments governing our indebtedness (including covenants in our senior secured credit facilities and the indentures governing the notes), we
could be in default under the terms of the agreements governing such indebtedness, including our senior secured credit facilities and the indentures governing the notes. In the event of such default:



| |  |  | the holders of such indebtedness may be able to cause all of our available cash flow to be used to pay such indebtedness and, in any event, could elect to declare
all the funds borrowed thereunder to be due and payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the lenders under our senior secured credit facilities could elect to terminate their commitments thereunder, cease making further loans and institute foreclosure
proceedings against our assets;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the subordination provisions in the senior subordinated notes may prevent us from paying any obligation with respect to such notes.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If our operating performance declines, we may in the future need to obtain waivers from the required lenders under our senior secured credit facilities
to avoid being in default. If we breach our covenants under our senior secured credit facilities and seek a waiver, we may not be able to obtain a waiver from the required lenders. If this occurs, we would be in default under our senior secured
credit facilities, the lenders could exercise their rights, as described above, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.

We may not be
able to repurchase the notes upon a change of control.

Upon the occurrence of specific kinds of change of control events, we will
be required to offer to repurchase all outstanding notes at 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The source of funds for any such purchase of the notes will be our available cash or cash generated from our
subsidiaries operations or other sources, including borrowings, sales of assets or sales of equity. We may not be able to repurchase the notes upon a change of control because we may not have sufficient financial resources to purchase all of
the notes that are tendered upon a change of control. Further, we will be contractually restricted under the terms of our senior secured credit facilities from repurchasing all of the notes tendered by holders upon a change of control. Accordingly,
we may not be able to satisfy our obligations to purchase the notes unless we are able to refinance or obtain waivers under our senior secured credit facilities. Our failure to repurchase the notes upon a



37



---

##### Table of Contents

change of control would cause a default under the indentures governing the notes and a cross default under our senior secured credit facilities. Our senior
secured credit facilities also provide that a change of control will be a default that permits lenders to accelerate the maturity of borrowings thereunder. Any of our future debt agreements may contain similar provisions.

The trading price for the notes is directly affected by many factors, including our credit rating.

Credit rating agencies regularly revise their ratings for companies they follow. The condition of the financial and credit markets and prevailing interest
rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future. Any such fluctuation may impact the trading price of the notes. In addition, developments in our business and operations could lead to a ratings downgrade which could
adversely affect the trading price of the notes, or the trading market for the notes, to the extent a trading market for the notes exists.

Federal
and state fraudulent transfer laws may permit a court to void the notes and the guarantees, subordinate claims in respect of the notes and the guarantees and require noteholders to return payments received. If this occurs, you may not receive any
payments on the notes.

Federal and state fraudulent transfer and conveyance statutes may apply to the issuance of the notes and the
incurrence of any guarantees. Under federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer or conveyance laws, which may vary from state to state, the notes or guarantees could be voided as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance
if (1) we or any of the guarantors, as applicable, issued the notes or incurred the guarantees with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors or (2) we or any of the guarantors, as applicable, received less than reasonably
equivalent value or fair consideration in return for either issuing the notes or incurring the guarantees and, in the case of (2) only, one of the following is also true at the time thereof:



| |  |  | we or any of the guarantors, as applicable, were insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the issuance of the notes or the incurrence of the guarantees;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the issuance of the notes or the incurrence of the guarantees left us or any of the guarantors, as applicable, with an unreasonably small amount of capital to carry
on the business;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we or any of the guarantors intended to, or believed that we or such guarantor would, incur debts beyond our or such guarantors ability to pay such debts as
they mature; or
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we or any of the guarantors was a defendant in an action for money damages, or had a judgment for money damages docketed against us or such guarantor if, in either
case, after final judgment, the judgment is unsatisfied.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A court would likely find that we or a guarantor did not
receive reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the notes or such guarantee if we or such guarantor did not substantially benefit directly or indirectly from the issuance of the notes or the applicable guarantee. As a general matter,
value is given for a transfer or an obligation if, in exchange for the transfer or obligation, property is transferred or an antecedent debt is secured or satisfied. A debtor will generally not be considered to have received value in connection with
a debt offering if the debtor uses the proceeds of that offering to make a dividend payment or otherwise retire or redeem equity securities issued by the debtor.

We cannot be certain as to the standards a court would use to determine whether or not we or the guarantors were solvent at the relevant time or, regardless of the standard that a court uses, that the issuance of the
guarantees would not be further subordinated to our or any of our guarantors other debt. Generally, however, an entity would be considered insolvent if, at the time it incurred indebtedness:



| |  |  | the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all its assets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



38



---

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including
contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | it could not pay its debts as they become due.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

If a court were to find that the issuance of the notes or the incurrence of the guarantee was a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, the court could void the payment obligations under the notes or such guarantee or
further subordinate the notes or such guarantee to presently existing and future indebtedness of ours or of the related guarantor, or require the holders of the notes to repay any amounts received with respect to such guarantee. In the event of a
finding that a fraudulent transfer or conveyance occurred, noteholders may not receive any repayment on the notes. Further, the voidance of the notes could result in an event of default with respect to our and our subsidiaries other debt that
could result in acceleration of such debt.

Although each guarantee entered into by a guarantor contains a provision intended to limit that
guarantors liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer, this provision may not be effective to protect those guarantees from being voided
under fraudulent transfer law, or may reduce that guarantors obligation to an amount that effectively makes its guarantee worthless.

We are
indirectly controlled by the Sponsors, and the Sponsors interests as equity holders may conflict with the interest of the holders of the notes.

We are a subsidiary of Parent and the Sponsors have the ability to control our policies and operations. The interests of the Sponsors may not in all cases be aligned with the interests of the holders of the notes. For
example, if we encounter financial difficulties or are unable to pay our debts as they mature, the interests of the Sponsors might conflict with these interests. In addition, the Sponsors may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures,
financings or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their equity investments, even though such transactions might involve risks to our creditors, including our noteholders. Furthermore, the Sponsors may in the future own
businesses that directly or indirectly compete with us. The Sponsors also may pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. For information
concerning our arrangements with the Sponsors following the Transactions, see Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.

Noteholders will be required to pay U.S. federal income tax on the senior toggle notes even if we do not pay cash interest.

None of the interest payments on the senior toggle notes will be qualified stated interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes, even if we never exercise the option to pay PIK interest, because the senior toggle notes provide us with the
option to pay cash interest or PIK interest for any interest payment period after the initial interest payment and prior to October 15, 2012. Consequently, the senior toggle notes will be treated as issued with original issue discount for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, and U.S. holders will be required to include the original issue discount in gross income on a constant yield to maturity basis, regardless of whether interest is paid currently in cash. See Certain Material United
States Federal Income Tax Considerations.

Risks Relating to the Stock Options Investigation

Our review of historical stock option granting practices and restatement of consolidated financial statements may result in future litigation or regulatory
inquiries, which could harm our financial results.

On December 18, 2006 and March 30, 2007, we announced preliminary and
updated reports from the Special Committee following the publication of an analyst report suggesting that certain historical stock option grants took place on dates when our stock price was trading at relatively low prices and the filing of two



39

##### Table of Contents

shareholder derivative lawsuits alleging improper backdating of options. Based upon the analysis of these reports and relevant accounting
literature, including Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB, No. 99, our Audit Committee determined on March 30, 2007 that we should amend our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2006 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period
ended August 31, 2006 to reflect the restatement of the consolidated financial statements reflected therein (fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006 and periods ended August 31, 2005 and 2006) and related disclosures reflected therein.

On May 25, 2007, our Board of Directors received and discussed the updated findings contained in the Special Committees final report, which
concluded that:



| |  |  | our written stock option plans were treated by our management, and our Compensation Committee, as formalities concerning the manner in which individual stock option
grants were to be approved, resulting in a failure to abide by the terms of the plans;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we failed to receive appropriate legal or accounting advice from our former general counsel and the chief financial officer related to our stock option program and,
as a result, relevant legal and accounting rules were not followed;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we failed to put in place and implement internal controls to manage our stock option program, including failing to devote sufficient resources to the administration
of our stock option program;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we failed to prepare and maintain appropriate books and records documenting the administration of our stock option program, specifically with regard to the approval
of individual stock option grants;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | most options issued by us were dated on dates other than the date of grant of those options, as that date was defined by the stock option plans;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we engaged in purposeful opportunistic dating (and, therefore, pricing) of options; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | as a result of these deficiencies, certain of our proxy statements were inaccurate.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our review of historical stock option granting practices has required us to incur additional expenses for legal, accounting, tax and other professional
services, and could in the future adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, including by virtue of exposing us to greater risks associated with litigation, regulatory and other governmental
proceedings. We have also incurred expenses in connection with certain corrective actions approved by our Compensation Committee with respect to misdated or mispriced options, including (a) payments to compensate certain former holders of
options whose option exercise prices we increased to the fair market value of the shares underlying such options on the measurement date (as that term is defined in SFAS No. 123(R)) for the options and (b) payments to the
Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, on behalf of certain option holders (and reimbursement of one of our executive officers) to cover taxes and penalties payable by such individuals as a result of their exercise of misdated or mispriced options prior
to the date we amended such options to bring them into compliance with (and thereby avoid the taxes and penalties imposed under) section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, as well as gross-up payments to such
individuals for any taxes they incur as a result of such payments. In connection with the closing of the Offer, all outstanding options to purchase Shares under our stock plans, vested or unvested, were cancelled and each option holder was paid an
amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the Offer Price over the applicable option exercise price for each Share subject to an option, less any required withholding taxes. While we believe that we have made appropriate judgments in
determining the correct measurement dates for the approximately 17,000 stock option awards in question, the SEC or other governmental agencies may disagree with the manner in which we have accounted for and reported, or not reported, the financial
and other impacts of past stock option grant measurement date errors, and there is a risk that any such inquiry could lead to circumstances in which we may have to further restate our prior financial statements, amend prior SEC filings, or otherwise
take other actions not currently contemplated by us. Any such circumstance could also lead to future delays in filing our subsequent SEC reports. We cannot assure you that any future litigation or regulatory action will result in the same
conclusions as those reached by the Special Committee. The conduct and resolution of

these matters may be time consuming, expensive and distracting from the conduct of our business. Furthermore, if we are
subject to adverse findings in any of these matters, we could be required to pay damages, penalties or additional taxes or have other remedies imposed upon us, which could harm our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

We have been named as a party to a number of shareholder derivative lawsuits relating to our historical stock option grant practices, and we may be
named in additional lawsuits in the future. This litigation could become time consuming and expensive and could result in the payment of significant judgments and settlements, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations
and financial condition.

On September 21, 2006, two shareholder-derivative complaints were filed against certain of the
Companys current and former officers and directors in Kosciusko Superior Court I in Kosciusko County, in the State of Indiana. The complaints, captionedLong v. Hann, et al., and Thorson v. Hann, et al., alleged violations of
state law relating to the issuance of certain stock option awards by Biomet dating back to 1996. Both complaints sought unspecified money damages as well as other equitable and injunctive relief. These two cases were consolidated under the caption
In re Biomet, Inc. Derivative Litigation, and on January 19, 2007, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that made additional allegations based on the Companys December 18, 2006 disclosures related to stock option awards, including
allegations that the defendants sought to sell the Company in order to escape liability for their conduct, and that they did so at a devalued price, thus further breaching their fiduciary duties to shareholders. On February 16, 2007, defendants
filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs amended complaint. On October 11, 2007, after approval of the Companys sale by its shareholders, the parties filed supplemental briefs on the issue of whether plaintiffs had standing to sue. On
February 5, 2008, the court dismissed the case for lack of standing, and plaintiffs motion for leave to amend was denied. Plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal of the case to the Indiana Court of Appeals.

On December 11, 2006, a third shareholder-derivative complaint captioned International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 98 Pension
Fund v. Hann, et al. , No. 06 CV 14312, was filed in federal court in the Southern District of New York. The IBEW case makes allegations and claims similar to those made in the Indiana litigation, in addition to purporting to state three
derivative claims for violations of the federal securities laws. On February 15, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs complaint. On April 11, 2007, plaintiffs filed a motion for partial summary judgment claiming
that the disclosures in the Companys April 2, 2007 Form 8-K filing and press release regarding the Companys historical stock option granting practices constitute admissions sufficient to establish defendants liability on
certain of plaintiffs claims. On October 11, 2007, after approval of the Companys sale by its shareholders, the parties filed supplemental briefs on the issue of whether plaintiff had standing to sue. On June 10, 2008, the
motion to dismiss was granted without leave to amend due to plaintiffs lack of standing. Plaintiffs have not filed an appeal.

Pursuant to Indiana law and provisions of the Companys Article of Incorporation, the Company is advancing reasonable expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred by the Companys current and former directors and officers in
defending these lawsuits.

On May 25, 2007, the Board of Directors received and discussed an updated report from its Special
Committee, which concluded that pursuing these shareholder-derivative lawsuits was not in our best interests. Under Indiana law, the Special Committees determination may be binding on the pending shareholder- derivative lawsuits and result in
dismissal of these lawsuits.

We cannot predict the outcome of these current lawsuits, nor can we predict the amount of time and expense
that will be required to resolve them. There may also be additional lawsuits of this nature filed in the future. Defending the current lawsuits and any additional shareholder derivative lawsuits may become time consuming and expensive, and an
unfavorable outcome in any of these cases could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, the issues arising from our previous retroactive pricing of options may make it more
difficult to obtain director and officer insurance coverage in the future. If we are able to obtain this coverage, it could be significantly more costly than in the past, which could have an adverse effect on our financial results and cash flows. As
a result of this and related factors, our directors and officers could face increased risks of personal liability in connection with the performance of their duties. Consequently, we may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified directors
and officers, which could adversely affect our business.

Risks Relating to the Merger

We are subject to litigation related to the Merger.

On December 20, 2006, a purported
class-action lawsuit captioned Long, et al. v. Hann, et al., was filed in Indiana State court in the County of Kosciusko. TheLong action names as defendants each member of our Board of Directors at the time, Blackstone Capital
Partners V L.P., Goldman Sachs Investments Ltd., KKR 2006 Fund L.P., and TPG Partners V, L.P. In March 2007, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the plaintiffs complaint. On January 2, 2007, a purported class-action lawsuit
captionedGervasio v. Biomet, Inc., et al. , was filed in Supreme Court for the State of New York, New York County. TheGervasio complaint named as defendants the Company, each member of our Board of Directors at the time, The
Blackstone Group L.P. and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. TheGervasio complaint also purported to name as defendants Goldman Sachs Capital Partners and Texas Pacific Group, neither of which is a legally existing entity. On
March 26, 2007, the court granted defendants motion to dismiss theGervasio action. On March 26, 2007, the court granted defendants motion to dismissGervasio. A third purported class-action lawsuit captionedCorry v. Biomet, Inc., et al. , was filed in New York state court in the County of New York on January 9, 2007, and was voluntarily discontinued on February 14, 2007. On May 31, 2007, we entered into a memorandum of understanding
regarding the settlement of class action lawsuits that were filed on behalf of our shareholders following the announcement of the proposed Merger. The parties to the memorandum of understanding executed a definitive settlement agreement dated as of
April 17, 2008, subject to court approval. On April 25, 2008, the parties moved the Indiana State court in the County of Kosciusko for approval of the settlement. On August 6, 2008, the Court gave final approval to the settlement and
dismissed the litigation with prejudice.

Any conclusion of this litigation in a manner adverse to us could have a material adverse effect
on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, the cost to us of defending the litigation, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. Such litigation could also substantially divert the attention
of our management and our resources in general. Uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of this litigation could harm our ability to compete in the marketplace.

U.S Department of Justice Consulting
Agreement Investigation

On September 27, 2007, the Company entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement with the U.S.
Attorneys Office for the District of New Jersey. The agreement concludes the governments investigation into whether consulting agreements between the largest orthopedic manufacturers and orthopedic surgeons who use joint reconstruction
and replacement products may have violated the federal Anti-Kickback Statute.

Through the agreement, the U.S. Attorneys Office
agreed not to prosecute the Company in connection with this matter, provided that the Company satisfies its obligations under the agreement over the 18 months following the date of the Deferred Prosecution Agreement. The agreement calls for the
appointment of an independent monitor to review the Companys compliance with the agreement, particularly in relation to its consulting agreements. The Company simultaneously entered into a settlement with the Department of Justices Civil
Division pursuant to which it paid $26.9 million.

As part of the resolution of this matter, the Company also entered into a Corporate
Integrity Agreement with the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The agreement requires the Company for 5 years subsequent to September 27, 2007 to continue to adhere to its Code of Business Conducts
and Ethics and certain other provisions, including reporting requirements.

U.S. Department of Justice EBI Products Investigation and Related
Litigation

In May 2007, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice through the U.S. Attorney for the
Southern District of West Virginia requesting documents generally relating to a certain number of products manufactured, marketed and sold by the Companys EBI subsidiary for the period from January 1999 through the date of this filing. In June
2007, the Company received a second administrative subpoena from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of West Virginia requesting documents relating to a specific physicians assistant. The Company understands that the Department of
Justice is conducting a civil investigation of EBIs sales and marketing practices relating to certain spinal products. The Company is fully cooperating with the request of the Department of Justice. The Company can make no assurances as to the
time or resources that will be needed to devote to this inquiry or its final outcome.

U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust and Related Litigation

In June 2006, we received a federal grand jury subpoena issued at the request of the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust
Division, requesting documents for the period from January 2001 through June 2006 regarding possible violations of federal criminal law, including possible violations of the antitrust laws, relating to the manufacture and sale of orthopedic implant
devices. We are aware of similar subpoenas directed to other

##### Table of Contents

companies in the orthopedic industry. We have cooperated and intend to continue to fully cooperate with the Department of Justice investigation. The result
of this investigation may not be known for several years. However, the scope of the June 2006 subpoena was narrowed to a specific geographic region and specific product lines. It is our belief that the other orthopedic companies that received
similar subpoenas have received similar guidance. It is our belief that the investigation was prompted by an unsolicited e-mail sent by a representative of one of our competitors that proposed a common pricing strategy in connection with a
particular hospital. This e-mail was received by an independent sales representative of an independent distributor for Biomet Orthopedics, but it was never transmitted to us. Biomet, Inc., the independent distributor, nor the independent sales
representative took any action in response to the e-mail, and we believe that no anticompetitive activity took place as a result of it. We require compliance by our employees and our independent distributors with our Code of Business Conduct and
Ethics and with applicable antitrust laws. On March 26, 2008, we received a letter from a representative of the Department of Justice, Antitrust Division I advising that the Department has closed its grand jury investigation of antitrust and
related offenses in the orthopedic implants industry.

We have received complaints in class action lawsuits alleging violations of the
Sherman Antitrust Act that raise the same antitrust issues as the U.S. Department of Justice investigation described above. The complaints also named various other companies in the orthopedic industry as defendants. These cases were consolidated
under the caption In Re Orthopedic Implant Device Antitrust Litigation, Case No. 1:07-ml-9831-JDT-WTL with the United States District Court Southern District Indianapolis, Indiana Division, and on October 18, 2007 were voluntarily
dismissed without prejudice.

Litigation Relating to Past Stock Option Grant Practices

On September 21, 2006, two shareholder derivative complaints were filed against certain of the Companys current and former officers and directors in
Kosciusko Superior Court I in Kosciusko County, in the State of Indiana. The complaints, captioned Long v. Hann, et al. , and Thorson v. Hann, et al. , alleged violations of state law relating to the issuance of certain stock option awards by Biomet
dating back to 1996. Both complaints sought unspecified money damages as well as other equitable and injunctive relief. These two cases were consolidated under the caption In re Biomet, Inc. Derivative Litigation , and on January 19, 2007,
plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that made additional allegations based on the Companys December 18, 2006 disclosures related to stock option awards, including allegations that the defendants sought to sell the Company in order to escape
liability for their conduct, and that they did so at a devalued price, thus further breaching their fiduciary duties to shareholders. On February 16, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs amended complaint. On October 11, 2007,
after approval of the Companys sale by its shareholders, the parties filed supplemental briefs on the issue of whether plaintiffs had standing to sue. On February 5, 2008, the court dismissed the case for lack of standing, and plaintiffs
motion for leave to amend was denied. Plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal of the case to the Indiana Court of Appeals.

On December 11,
2006, a third shareholder derivative complaint captioned International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 98 Pension Fund v. Hann, et al. , No. 06 CV 14312, was filed in federal court in the Southern District of New York. The IBEW case
makes allegations and claims similar to those made in the Indiana litigation, in addition to purporting to state three derivative claims for violations of the federal securities laws. On February 15, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the
plaintiffs complaint. On April 11, 2007, plaintiffs filed a motion for partial summary judgment claiming that the disclosures in the Companys April 2, 2007 Form 8-K filing and press release regarding the Companys historical stock
options granting practices constitute admissions sufficient to establish defendants liability on certain of plaintiffs claims. On October 11, 2007, after approval of the Companys sale by its shareholders, the parties filed
supplemental briefs on the issue of whether plaintiff had standing to sue. On June 10, 2008, the motion to dismiss was granted without leave to amend due to plaintiffs lack of standing. Plaintiffs have not filed an appeal. See Item 7.

Litigation Relating to the Merger

On December 20, 2006, a purported class-action lawsuit captioned Long, et al. v. Hann, et al., was filed in Indiana State court in the County of
Kosciusko. The lawsuit names as defendants each member of the Companys Board of Directors at the time, Dane Miller, Ph.D., and Blackstone Capital Partners V L.P., KKR 2006 Fund L.P., Goldman Sachs Investments Ltd. and TPG Partners V, L.P. The
complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached, or aided and abetted the breach of, fiduciary duties owed to the Companys shareholders by its directors in connection with the Companys entry into the Merger Agreement.
Among the purported fiduciary breaches alleged in the complaint is that the Companys director defendants knew that the only way they could escape liability for their stock option granting improprieties would be to sell the Company, thus
eliminating their liability. The complaint seeks, among other relief, class certification of the lawsuit, a declaration that the Merger Agreement was entered into in breach of the fiduciary duties of the defendants, an injunction preventing
the defendants from proceeding with the Merger unless and until the defendants implement procedures to obtain the highest possible sale price, an order directing the defendants to exercise their fiduciary duties to obtain a transaction which is in
the best interests of the Companys shareholders until the process for a sale of Biomet is completed and the highest price is obtained, an order directing the defendants to exercise their fiduciary duty to disclose all material information in
their possession concerning the Merger prior to the shareholder vote, including fiscal 2007 second quarter financial results, imposition of a constructive trust upon any benefits improperly received by the defendants, an award of attorneys
fees and expenses, and such other relief as the court might find just and proper. On March 29 and 30, 2007, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the plaintiffs complaint.

On January 2, 2007, a purported class action lawsuit captioned Gervasio v. Biomet, Inc., et al., was filed in the Supreme Court for the State of New
York, New York County. A virtually identical action was filed on January 9, 2007, captioned Corry v. Biomet, Inc., et al., in the same court. Both of these lawsuits named as defendants Biomet, Inc., each member of the Companys Board of
Directors at the time, Dane Miller, Ph.D., The Blackstone Group L.P., Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., Goldman Sachs Capital Partners and Texas Pacific Group. The lawsuits made essentially the same claims and sought the same relief as in the
Long action described above. On January 29, 2007, defendants filed a joint motion to dismiss Gervasio. On February 14, 2007, the plaintiff in Corry voluntarily discontinued his lawsuit and informed defendants that he intended to intervene
in Gervasio. On March 26, 2007, the court granted defendants motion to dismiss Gervasio.

Pursuant to Indiana law and provisions
of the Companys Articles of Incorporation, the Company is advancing reasonable expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred by the Companys current and former directors and officers in defending these lawsuits, with the exception
of Dane Miller, Ph.D., whose status as a defendant does not arise from his status as a former director or officer.

Each of Biomet and the
other defendants denies all of the allegations in these lawsuits, including any allegation that its disclosures with regard to the pending Merger were false, misleading or incomplete in any way. Nevertheless, without admitting any liability or
wrongdoing, the Company and other defendants in these cases have agreed in principle to settle them in order to avoid the potential cost and distraction of continued litigation and, at the time of the agreement in principle, to eliminate any risk of
any delay to the closing of the Merger posed by these lawsuits.

On May 31, 2007, the Company entered into a memorandum of
understanding regarding the settlement of class action lawsuits that were filed on behalf of the Companys shareholders following the announcement of the proposed Merger. The parties to the memorandum of understanding executed a definitive
settlement agreement dated as of April 17, 2008.

Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to make available
meaningful additional information, including financial information, to its shareholders. Such additional information was contained in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 31, 2007. In addition, the Sponsors have agreed to cause Biomet



46

##### Table of Contents

(or the Companys Successors) to pay the legal fees and expenses of plaintiffs counsel, in an amount of $0.6 million in the aggregate of the
settlement, subject to approval by the court and other conditions. On April 25, 2008, the parties moved the Indiana State court in the County of Kosciusko for approval of the settlement. The settlement was entered into on April 17, 2008,
and preliminary approval was granted by the court on May 12, 2008. Final approval was given by the Court on August 6, 2008, and the lawsuits were dismissed with prejudice.

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Informal Investigation

On September 25, 2007,
the Company received a letter from the SEC informing the Company that it is conducting an informal investigation regarding possible violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in the sale of medical devices in certain foreign countries by
companies in the medical devices industry. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prohibits U.S. companies and their officers, directors, employees, shareholders acting on their behalf and agents from offering, promising, authorizing or making payments
to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business abroad or otherwise obtaining favorable treatment and this law requires companies to maintain records which fairly and accurately reflect transactions and to maintain internal
accounting controls. In many countries, hospitals and clinics are government-owned and healthcare professionals employed by such hospitals and clinics, with whom the Company regularly interacts, may meet the definition of a foreign official for
purposes of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. If the Company is found to have violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the Company may face sanctions including fines, criminal penalties, disgorgement of profits and suspension or debarment of the
Companys ability to contract with government agencies or receive export licenses. On November 9, 2007, the Company received a letter from the Department of Justice requesting any information provided to the SEC be provided to the
Department of Justice on a voluntary basis. The Company intends to fully cooperate with both requests and the Company is in the process of conducting its own review relating to these matters in certain countries in which the Company and its
distributors conduct business.

Massachusetts AG

The Company received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General (Massachusetts AG) on or about November 19,
2007. The CID requested documents for the period November 1, 2003 to the present concerning certain physicians and provider groups, including, among other things, documents concerning any contracts or agreements with, and any payments made
to, those physicians or provider groups. The Company has produced documents in response to the CID, and intends to continue to cooperate with the Massachusetts AG. It is not possible at this time to predict the likely outcome of this
inquiry or its financial impact should the outcome be adverse to the Company.

Other Matters

In February 2006, SDGI Holdings, Inc. and Medtronic Sofamor Danek, Inc. (collectively referred to
herein as Medtronic) brought an action against EBI and the Company alleging infringement of seven patents. Specifically, Medtronic alleges that the patents are infringed by certain components of the Companys Vuelock® Anterior Cervical Plate System, as well as instruments and surgical implantation methods associated with the Companys Array® Spinal System. In Fall
2007, Medtronic included similar instruments used with EBIs Biomet® Omega21, Polaris, and Synergy Spinal Fixation Systems as accused products. Medtronics complaint does not seek a specific amount of damages, but does seek to enjoin
the Company from manufacturing, selling and/or distributing the allegedly infringing products. The Company has filed a counterclaim seeking a finding of non-infringement of the patents at issue and a finding that certain of the patents are invalid
and unenforceable. Discovery on the litigation continues. The Company is vigorously defending this matter and intends to continue to do so.

The Company and Biomet Orthopedics initiated legal proceedings on July 17, 2007 against Zimmer US, Inc., or Zimmer, certain of the Companys former distributors and David Montgomery, the Companys former employee who currently
works for Zimmer. The thirteen count lawsuit originally filed in Marion County, Indiana



47



---

##### Table of Contents

and refiled in Hamilton County, Indiana alleges, among other things, that Zimmer and Mr. Montgomery attempted to create an unfair market advantage by
engaging in a campaign to misappropriate the Companys confidential information, to interfere with the Companys contractual relations with distributors and to attempt to buy the assets of most of the Companys distributors (including
the Companys surgical instruments) throughout the United States. Further, the lawsuit alleges that the limited number of distributors who accepted Zimmers offer are in violation of their contractual obligations to Biomet. Although nearly
all of the Companys distributors rejected Zimmers offers and have remained with Biomet, and although no amount of money damages can completely compensate Biomet for the losses the Company has sustained as a result of defendants
conduct, the Company is nonetheless seeking to recover compensatory damages that are attributable to financial and other resources spent on signing new agreements with the Companys sales force. To the extent the Company sustained damages as a
result of the Companys former distributors agreeing to purportedly sell their assets to Zimmer, the Company is seeking to recover lost profits and other damages as well. In addition, the Company is seeking to recover punitive damages from the
defendants. On November 9, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Companys complaint. On March 27, 2008, the court denied the motion in its entirety.

In a related matter, the Company brought suit against a former distributor for Biomet Orthopedics who, in violation of his contractual and other
obligations to Biomet under agreements stretching back to 1994, sold the assets of his distributorship to Zimmer in an apparent effort to avoid his contractual obligations to the Company. The complaint, now pending in federal district court in
Indiana, asserts five causes of action that include breach of contract, unjust enrichment and statutory wrongs. Among other things, the complaint seeks injunctive relief and compensatory and punitive damages. On July 16, 2007, a temporary
restraining order was entered against this former distributor which subsequently lapsed ten days later. Prior to the filing of the suit described above, this former distributor sued one of his former employees who decided to continue to represent
the Companys products in the future as he has for nearly ten years. The suit brought against this employee by the Companys former distributor who sold his assets to Zimmer claims, among other things, that the former employee is violating
his non-competition agreement with the Companys former distributor by continuing to sell the same Biomet products the former employee sold while employed by the Companys former distributor. The suit also seeks, among other forms of
relief, an injunction and compensatory and punitive damages. In addition, on or about July 3, 2008, Zimmer U.S., Inc. and one of its distributors filed a five count complaint in Tennessee federal court against this same former employee seeking,
among other things, injunctive relief, monetary damages, and punitive damages for alleged breach of contract, conspiracy, and other causes of action.

In late 2004 and early 2005, approximately 120 plaintiffs suedDr. John King in the Circuit Court of Putnam County, West Virginia. Plaintiffs alleged that Dr. King was professionally negligent when he performed
surgery on the plaintiffs at Putnam General Hospital in Putnam County, West Virginia between November 2002 and June 2003. In 38 of these lawsuits, plaintiffs alleged that Dr. King had implanted a device manufactured by the Companys EBI
subsidiary and EBI was named a party in those 38 lawsuits. Plaintiffs have dismissed or have agreed to dismiss their claims against EBI in 11 cases, leaving EBI as a party in 27 pending lawsuits, all of which relate to EBIs Ionic Spine Spacer
System and its implanted bone stimulator devices, the SpF and OsteoGen. Plaintiffs allege that EBI entered into a joint venture and a civil conspiracy with Dr. King and/or his physician assistant, David McNair. The plaintiffs also allege that EBI
failed to warn that its products were not safe for their intended use, that EBI knew that Dr. King was not properly trained or was performing surgeries inappropriately and claims based on strict liability, express and implied breach of warranty and
negligent sale. Plaintiffs seek to recover lost income, medical expenses, future medical and life care expenses, damages relating to pain and suffering and punitive and other damages. Dr. King is uninsured in 25 of these 27 cases and has filed
bankruptcy.

In July 2007, a Putnam County jury found that Putnam General Hospital had negligently credentialed Dr. King and that the
hospitals conduct in credentialing Dr. King was motivated by fraud, ill will, wantonness, oppressiveness, or by reckless or gross negligence, which allowed the plaintiffs to seek punitive damages against the hospital. In April, May and June of
2008, the hospital and its upstream affiliates and David McNair entered into a confidential settlement of all claims with all but one of the plaintiffs. EBI, Wright Medical Corporation, Wright Medicals distributors employee, Robert
Edwards, and Dr. King remain as defendants in the litigation.

##### Table of Contents

The Putnam County Circuit Court revised its case management order with respect to the remaining lawsuits
on July 2, 2008 and scheduled a consolidated trial of six plaintiffs for June 1, 2009. The Company is vigorously defending these matters and intends to continue to do so.

There are various other claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, investigations and pending actions involving various allegations against the Company incident to the operation of its business, principally
product liability and intellectual property cases. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably to Biomet. The Company accrues for losses that are deemed to be
probable and subject to reasonable estimate. Based on the advice of the Companys counsel in these matters, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters and any liabilities in excess of amounts provided will not have a
material adverse impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. See Risk Factors.

Market and other information

We are a privately-owned
company with no established public trading market for our common stock.

Since August 20, 2005, the following securities have been issued
and sold by the registrant without registration under the Securities Act:

On September 25, 2007, the registrant issued and sold
$718,758,000 aggregate principal amount of senior cash pay notes, $688,758,000 aggregate principal amount of senior toggle notes and $940,698,000 aggregate principal amount of senior subordinated notes to Banc of America Securities LLC, Goldman,
Sachs & Co., Lehman Brothers Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and Bear, Sterns & Co. Inc. (the Initial Purchasers) for aggregate consideration of $2,287,156,905,
representing an aggregate underwriting discount of $61,057,095 from the aggregate offering price of $2,348,214,000 at which the Initial Purchasers subsequently resold the notes to investors. The issuance to the Initial Purchasers was made in
reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The Initial Purchasers resold the notes (i) to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and
(ii) outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. On September 25, 2007, Merger Sub merged into Biomet, Inc. with Biomet, Inc. being the survivor.

|Item 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations includes periods prior to the consummation of the Merger.
Accordingly, the following discussion and analysis of historical periods does not reflect the significant impact that the Merger has had on us, including significantly increased leverage and liquidity requirements. You should read the following
discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the Selected Financial Data, and our historical audited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this annual
report. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in Risk
Factors and Forward-Looking Statements of this annual report. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Overview

Our Business

We design, manufacture and market a comprehensive range of both surgical and non-surgical products used primarily by orthopedic surgeons and other musculoskeletal medical specialists. We operate in one business
segment, musculoskeletal products, which includes the design, manufacture and marketing of products in four major product categories: reconstructive products, fixation devices, spinal products and other products. We have three reportable geographic
markets: United States, Europe and International.



| |  |  | Reconstructive products, which represented 68%, 71%, 72%, and 74% of our net sales for fiscal 2006, fiscal 2007, for the period from June 1, 2007 to
July 11, 2007, and for the period from July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, respectively, include knee, hip and extremity joint replacement systems, as well as dental reconstructive implants, bone cements and accessories, autologous
therapies and the procedure-specific instrumentation required to implant our reconstructive systems.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Fixation devices, which represented 12% of our net sales for fiscal 2006, 11% of our net sales for fiscal 2007 and for the period from June 1, 2007 to
July 11, 2007, and 10% of our net sales for the period from July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, include internal and external fixation devices, craniomaxillofacial fixation systems and electrical stimulation devices that do not address the
spine.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Spinal products, which represented 11% of our net sales for fiscal 2006, 10% of our net sales for fiscal 2007 and for the period from June 1, 2007 to
July 11, 2007 and 8% of our net sales for the period from July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, include electrical stimulation devices addressing the spine, spinal fixation systems and orthobiologics for the spine.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The other product sales category, which represented 9% of our net sales for fiscal 2006 and 8% of our net sales for fiscal 2007, for the period from June 1,
2007 to July 11, 2007, and for the period from July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, respectively, includes sports medicine products, softgoods and bracing products, casting materials, general surgical instruments, operating room supplies
and other surgical products.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Depending on the intended application, we report sales of bone substitute materials in the
reconstructive product, fixation device or spinal product category.

We have operations in over 50 locations, distribute our products in
approximately 90 countries throughout the world and manage our operations through three reportable geographic markets mentioned above. We are the fourth largest player in the U.S. orthopedic reconstructive market and have maintained this position
for over ten years. We supply products to over 60% of U.S. hospitals performing joint replacement surgery. In addition, we are the third largest manufacturer and marketer of dental reconstructive devices worldwide and maintain leadership positions
in the electrical stimulation and craniomaxillofacial fields. We have a long history of innovation, engineering, quality and successful new product launches. Demonstrating our research and

development leadership, we have launched approximately 800 new products in the past nine fiscal years and plan to introduce approximately 100 new products
during fiscal 2009.

The Transactions

On December 18, 2006, we entered into the Merger Agreement with Parent and Purchaser. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on June 13, 2007, Purchaser commenced the Offer to purchase all of our outstanding Shares at the Offer Price
without interest and less any required withholding taxes. The Offer was made pursuant to Purchasers offer to purchase dated June 13, 2007 and the related letter of transmittal. The Offer expired on July 11, 2007, with approximately
82% of the outstanding Shares having been tendered to Purchaser. At our special meeting of shareholders held on September 5, 2007, more than 91% of our shareholders voted to approve the Merger, and Parent acquired us on September 25, 2007
through a reverse subsidiary merger with Biomet, Inc. being the surviving company. Subsequent to the acquisition, we became a subsidiary of our Parent, which is controlled by Holding, an entity controlled by the Sponsors and their Co-Investors.
Parents sole asset is 100% of the capital stock of the Company. Accordingly, a separate discussion of Parents financial condition and results of operations is not provided since the Company is representative of Parents consolidated
operations.

The Offer for Biomets Shares was completed successfully on July 11, 2007. Although Biomet continues as the same
legal entity after the Merger, Holdings cost of acquiring Biomet has been pushed-down to establish a new accounting basis for Biomet. Accordingly, the financial information in the tables and discussion below for the year ended May 31,
2008 is presented separately for the period prior to the completion of the Offer (June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007, the Predecessor or Predecessor Period) and the period after the completion of the Offer (July 12, 2007 through
May 31, 2008, or the Successor Period), which relate to the accounting periods preceding and succeeding the completion of the Offer. The financial information as of May 31, 2008 and for the Successor Period are not comparative to the
financial information as of and for the years ended May 31, 2006 and 2007 or the Predecessor period because of the new basis of accounting resulting from the Merger. We have prepared our discussion of the results of operations by comparing the
results of operations of the Predecessor Period to the historical year-ended May 31, 2007. A comparative discussion of the results of operations for the Successor Period has not been provided due to the lack of a comparable period for the
Predecessor and/or are expected to have a continuing significant impact on our future results of operations; however, we have included a brief discussion of the factors that materially affected our results of operations in the Successor Period. Our
results of operations for the Predecessor Period and the Successor Period should not be considered representative of our future results of operations.

In connection with the Transactions, we incurred significant indebtedness and became highly leveraged. See Liquidity and Capital Resources. In addition, the purchase price paid in connection with the
acquisition has been allocated to state the acquired assets and liabilities at fair value.

We allocated the purchase price to the fair
value of the assets and liabilities of Biomet based on estimated fair values utilizing generally accepted valuation methodologies. Both assets and liabilities were valued as of July 11, 2007. As noted in the purchase price allocation,
in-process research and development projects were acquired. The most significant projects acquired occurred in the hip, knee and spine divisions. We expect to use these products to leverage and build on those products that have been in the market
for a number of years. We expect to launch products from these projects over the next 36 months, subject to regulatory approval. The preliminary purchase accounting adjustments increased the carrying value of our property and equipment, inventory
and established intangible assets (such as corporate and product trade names, core and completed technology and customer relationships), among other things. Subsequent to the Transactions, interest expense and non-cash depreciation and amortization
charges have significantly increased. As a result, our Successor financial statements subsequent to the Transactions are not comparable to our Predecessor financial statements.

The purchase price allocation was based on information currently available to us, and expectations, assumptions, and valuation methodologies deemed
reasonable by our management. No assurance can be given,

however, that the underlying assumptions used to estimate expected technology based product revenues, development costs or profitability, or the events
associated with such technology, will occur as projected. Certain other fair value estimates related to intellectual property and other matters, investments, and inventory and instruments associated with brands we are considering to discontinue were
also performed. The preliminary valuation and associated purchase price allocation has been completed and adjustments to the preliminary purchase price used as of our third quarter ended February 29, 2008 were made as of our closing balance
sheet date for the year ended May 31, 2008. The final valuation and associated purchase price allocation is expected to be completed as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the completion of the acquisition.

In addition, as noted in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report, the summary historical financial
information as of and for the year ended May 31, 2007 has been prepared on the basis of an April 30 fiscal year for certain of our foreign subsidiaries for financial reporting purposes. Subsequent to the completion of the Offer, we
eliminated this one-month reporting lag at our foreign subsidiaries, and therefore, the summary historical financial information as of and for the year ended May 31, 2007 is not comparative to the summary financial information for the Successor
Period due to the elimination of this one-month lag for financial reporting purposes at our foreign subsidiaries. The effect of this one-month lag elimination at our foreign subsidiaries is not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Review of Historical Stock Option Grant Practices

In December 2006, following the publication of an analyst report suggesting that certain of our historical grants of Options took place on dates when our stock price was trading at relatively low prices and the filing
of two shareholder derivative lawsuits alleging improper backdating of Options, our Board of Directors formed the Special Committee to conduct an independent investigation of our stock option grants for the period from March 1996 to May
2006 and to determine whether we had any claims arising out of any inappropriate stock option backdating and, if so, whether it was in our best interest and the best interest of our shareholders to pursue any such claim.

On December 18, 2006 and March 30, 2007, we announced preliminary reports from the Special Committee. Based upon an analysis of these reports
and relevant accounting literature, including SAB No. 99, the Audit Committee determined on March 30, 2007 that we should amend our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2006 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended
August 31, 2006 to reflect the restatement of our consolidated financial statements (fiscal 2004, 2005 and 2006 and periods ended August 31, 2005 and 2006) and related disclosures reflected therein. In light of the Special Committees
preliminary report discussed below, we announced that our previously issued financial statements and any related reports of our independent registered public accounting firm should not be relied upon. On May 25, 2007, the Board of Directors
received and discussed the updated findings contained in the Special Committees final report.

The Special Committees
investigation was based upon review of an extensive collection of physical and electronic documents, interviews of more than two dozen individuals and analysis of approximately 17,000 grants to purchase approximately 17,000,000 Shares on over 500
different grant dates over the 11-year period from March 1996 through May 2006. The Special Committee made the following findings:



| |  |  | our written stock option plans were treated by our management, and our Compensation Committee, as formalities concerning the manner in which individual stock option
grants were to be approved, resulting in a failure to abide by the terms of the plans;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we failed to receive appropriate legal or accounting advice from our former general counsel and the chief financial officer related to our stock option program and,
as a result, relevant legal and accounting rules were not followed;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we failed to put in place and implement internal controls to manage our stock option program, including failing to devote sufficient resources to the administration
of our stock option program;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



54

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | we failed to prepare and maintain appropriate books and records documenting the administration of our stock option program, specifically with regard to the approval
of individual stock option grants;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | most stock options issued by us were dated on dates other than the date of grant of those Options, as that date was defined by the stock option plans;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we engaged in purposeful opportunistic dating (and, therefore, pricing) of Options; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | as a result of these deficiencies, certain of our proxy statements were inaccurate.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Special Committee also reported that members of senior management were aware of the practice of dating Options on a date other than the date on which
final action regarding the Option occurred, and that certain members of senior management, namely our chief financial officer and general counsel during the period, were or should have been aware of certain accounting and legal ramifications,
respectively, of issuing an Option with an exercise price lower than the fair market value on the date of issuance. The Special Committee also concluded that, based upon the information gathered and reviewed by the Special Committee, the misdating
and mispricing of stock option awards was driven by a desire to make the Options more valuable to the employees who received the awards and not to enrich those who managed the stock option program, though the Companys practice also did inure
to the benefit of those who managed the stock option program.

On May 25, 2007, our Board of Directors received and discussed the
remedial measures suggested by the Special Committee, which included that:



| |  |  | the procedures for Option approval should be formalized in a manner consistent with the terms of our underlying stock option plans and records of individual stock
option awards should be maintained using commercially available software by experienced and qualified personnel;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the Board of Directors should commit to exercising additional oversight of our management and conduct a thorough review of our governance and internal control
practices;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | certain personnel should be removed from the administration of our stock option program and financial reporting function or provided additional oversight and
training;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | certain individuals who were our directors or executive officers at the time they received misdated or mispriced awards should disgorge any benefit derived from the
exercise of such misdated or mispriced awards and increase the exercise price for those unexercised misdated or mispriced awards; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we should take steps to address the tax consequences to employees of our historical stock option granting practices.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our Board of Directors continues to thoughtfully consider these recommendations and has either implemented or is in the process of implementing several
of the Special Committees recommendations, to the extent it is deemed necessary subsequent to the transactions. We have periodically advised the Midwest Regional Office of the SEC of our historical stock option grant practices and of the
special committees findings.

We have also incurred expenses in connection with certain corrective actions approved by our
Compensation Committee with respect to misdated or mispriced Options, including (a) payments to compensate certain former holders of Options whose Option exercise prices we increased to the fair market value of the shares underlying such
Options on the measurement date (as that term is defined in SFAS No. 123(R)) for the Options and (b) payments to the IRS on behalf of certain Option holders (and reimbursement of one of our executive officers) to cover taxes
and penalties payable by such individuals as a result of their exercise of misdated or mispriced Options prior to the date we amended such Options to bring them into compliance with (and thereby avoid the taxes and penalties imposed under) section
409A of the Code, as well as gross-up payments to such individuals for any taxes they incur as a result of such payments. In connection with the closing of the Offer, all outstanding Options to purchase Shares under our stock plans, vested or
unvested, were cancelled and each Option holder was paid an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the Offer Price over the applicable Option exercise price for each Share subject to an Option, less any required withholding taxes.

Furthermore, in light of the Special Committees findings, on March 30, 2007 Gregory D. Hartman
retired as Senior Vice PresidentFinance, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and Daniel P. Hann retired as our Executive Vice President of Administration and our Director. On February 26, 2007, we announced the appointment of Jeffrey
R. Binder as President and Chief Executive Officer and a member of our Board of Directors. On March 30, 2007, we announced the appointment of J. Pat Richardson as Vice PresidentFinance and Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer,
and on May 14, 2007, we announced the appointment of Daniel P. Florin as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective June 5, 2007.

Finally, the Special Committee concluded that pursuit of the claims made in the derivative litigation related to stock option grants would not be in our best interests at this time.

On May 29, 2007, we filed our amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for fiscal 2006. On June 4, 2007, we filed our amended Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q/A for the period ended August 31, 2006 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended November 30, 2006 and February 28, 2007. We have not amended and do not intend to amend any of our previously filed Annual
Reports on Form 10-K or Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods affected by the restatement other than our amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for fiscal 2006 and our amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended August 31,
2006. Accordingly, our previously issued financial statements affected by the restatement and any related reports of our independent registered public accounting firm should not be relied upon.

Results of Operations

We believe the following
developments or trends are important in understanding our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the Predecessor Period (June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007) and the Successor Period (July 12, 2007 through
May 31, 2008). The growth percentages shown below include the effect of eliminating a one-month reporting lag on July 12, 2007, that was in place during fiscal 2007 at certain foreign subsidiaries. The effect of this one-month lag
elimination at our foreign subsidiaries is not material to the consolidated financial statements as of May 31, 2008 and for the Successor Period.

| |  |  | Worldwide sales of reconstructive products continue to be a significant percentage of total sales. European sales
continue to grow faster than U.S. sales, primarily due to the positive impact of foreign currency translation. Principal drivers behind the reconstructive products growth are knees, where worldwide demand remains strong for Biomets Oxford® Partial Knee System, as well as the Vanguard Complete Knee System. Hip sales continue to be strong, primarily due to international
sales of the M2a-Magnum Large Metal Articulation System and the Taperloc® Hip System as well as the ReCap® Total Resurfacing System in Europe. In addition, sales of dental reconstructive devices have been
strong, with the launch of the NanoTite Tapered PREVAIL® Implant.

| |  |  | Sales of fixation and spinal products have been lower than expected for the period July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008 due to the underperformance of the Biomet
Trauma and Biomet Spine, or BTBS, division. We have made various changes at the division, including managerial changes and computer system enhancements, among others. The new management team and infrastructure changes at BTBS have allowed us to
provide improved focus on the spine and trauma markets and BTBS customers. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, BTBS continued to show signs of stabilization.

Gross Margin. Gross margin was 62% of net sales during the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 and was negatively impacted by
increased cost of sales due to the inventory step-up of $160.3 million, in connection with the Merger as well as, additional depreciation of $15.0 million related to the step-up in property, plant, and equipment. In addition, stock compensation
expense of $2.0 million impacted the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 51% of net sales during the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, and were negatively impacted primarily due to

Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report, (3) $24.0 million of distributor fee expense associated with renegotiation of distribution agreements, and (4) $21.0 million of stock compensation
expense.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development
expenditures during the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 were $82.2 million or 4% of net sales. Investments were primarily on the following research and development projects: Polaris 5.5 (SpinalSpine), Mini BHS (SpinalStimulation), E-Poly Bearing Surfaces (ReconstructiveHip and Knee), Comprehensive® Primary Shoulder System (ReconstructiveExtremities), Regenerex® RingLoc®+Modular Acetabular Cup (ReconstructiveHips) and Regenerex® Tibial Components (ReconstructiveKnees), Signature Patient Specific Disposable Knee Instruments (Reconstructive-Knees), TMJ Diagnostic Arthroscope, TMJ Arthrocentesis Convenience Kit, LactoSorb® Fixation
System for the Japan Market, Biologic Scaffold Research, NanoTite Tapered and Tapered PREVAIL® Implants, Navigator Instrumentation System for guided implant placement, ZiReal® Art Ceramic Abutment System, Encod® Complete patient specific products expansion including robotic analog placement, and Acrylic Bone Cement.

In-Process Research & Development (IPRD). We recorded IPRD charges of $479.0 million for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 related to the Merger. We recorded IPRD for the portion of the purchase price
representing the value of technologies relating to products that have not received FDA approval or clearance and have no alternative use, excluding the value of core and developed technologies. IPRD projects for Biomet Orthopedics focus on the
utilization of new materials, new methods for fabricating existing materials, and new geometries of both new and existing materials to enhance function, durability and bony fixation for orthopedic implant devices primarily focused in the area of
partial and total joint replacement. IPRD projects for Biomet Trauma and Biomet Spine (BTBS) are primarily related to addressing unmet needs in the musculoskeletal market utilizing both traditional and new technologies. IPRD projects for Biomet
Europe focus primarily on improvements to joint replacement implants, such as wear resistant bearing combinations for hip replacement, total and partial knee prostheses with improved kinematic performance, novel shoulder implants for improved
stability and range of motion and development of instrumentation with improved accuracy and ergonomics. IPRD projects for Biomet Biologics focus primarily on producing new devices and applications to use autologous materials for regenerative tissue
therapies. IPRD projects for Biomet Sports Medicine focus on the utilization of new technologies, materials and devices to primarily treat soft tissue defects in tendons, ligaments and cartilage. IPRD projects for Biomet 3i focus on the development
of intraoral rehabilitation, generally in the area of dental implants, associated components, surgical instrumentation and regenerative therapies necessary for the placement of the implants.

Amortization. Amortization expense during the period from July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 was $329.3 million, which relates to the
establishment of definite lived intangibles of $6,310.0 million recorded in connection with the Merger.

Interest Expense, net.
Interest expense was $516.3 million for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, primarily of which relates to interest expense and financing costs related to the debt financings obtained in connection with the Merger of $522.0
million. This was offset by interest income of $5.0 million.

Other income (expense). Other income (expense) was $(9.7) million for
the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, which relates primarily to currency translation adjustments related to our foreign operations.

Provision (Benefit) for Taxes. The effective income tax benefit is 19% for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008. The rate is lower than the U.S. statutory rates due to the following items not
being deductible: (1) $479.0 million IPRD expense related to the Merger, (2) $74.0 million of transaction expenses related to the Merger and (3) a portion of the $26.9 million settlement payment with the Department of Justice
described in

| |  |  | Worldwide sales of reconstructive products continue to be a significant percentage of total net sales. Principal drivers
behind the reconstructive product sales are knees, where worldwide demand remains strong for Biomets Oxford® Partial Knee System, as well as the Vanguard Complete Knee System. Hip sales continue to be strong, primarily due to worldwide sales of the M2a-Magnum Large Articulation System and the Taperloc® Hip System, as well as strong growth for the ReCap® Total Resurfacing System in Europe. In addition, sales of dental reconstructive devices have been strong, with the launch of the NanoTite Tapered
PREVAIL® Implant.

| |  |  | Sales of fixation and spinal products have been lower than expected for the period June 1 to July 11, 2007 due to the underperformance of the BTBS
division. We have made various changes at the division, including managerial changes, computer system enhancements, among others. We believe the new management team and infrastructure changes at BTBS will allow us to provide improved focus on the
spine and trauma markets and BTBS customers.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales of other products include product lines that are sold by the BTBS division and did not meet management expectations during the period June 1, 2007
through July 11, 2007. This poor performance was partly offset by sales growth in the sports medicine products.

Gross Margin. Gross margin decreased as a percentage of net sales to 59% for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007 compared to 70% during the year ended May 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to
$28.0 million of costs in June 2007 to settle in-the-money stock options to employees, as part of the Merger.

Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 78% for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007 compared to 41% for the year ended May 31, 2007. This increase
in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to the following expenses that occurred from June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007 that did not occur during the year ended May 31, 2007: (1) $61.0 million paid upon the
cash-out of outstanding in-the-money stock options of employees, as part of the Merger, (2) $30.0 million of transaction fees associated with the Merger, (3) $18.0 million of distributor fee expense associated with renegotiation of
distribution agreements and (4) $2.0 million of additional legal and Merger-related fees. The percentage of net sales for the year ended May 31, 2007 was impacted by about 1% due to the following items: (1) $16.0 million in legal and
distribution expenses relating to the shareholder derivative lawsuits and investigative expenses in determining alternative measurement dates of stock option awards in June 2007, (2) the adoption of SFAS 123(R) Share-Based Payment
increased selling, general and administrative expenses by $8.0 million and (3) $6.0 million in expenses related to the proposed Merger Agreement during the third quarter of fiscal 2007.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenditures of $34.0 million, or 14% as a percentage of net sales from June 1,
2007 through July 11, 2007 compared to $94.4 million, or 4% as a percentage of net sales for the year ended May 31, 2007. This increase in percentage was primarily due to $23.0 million of additional compensation expense upon the cash-out
of outstanding in-the-money stock options of employees, as part of the Merger.

Provision (Benefit) for Taxes. The effective income tax rate was 33% for the period June 1,
2007 through July 11, 2007 and for the year ended May 31, 2007. These rates are lower than the U.S. statutory rates due to the tax rates in our international locations being lower than in the United States and our plans to have those
earnings permanently invested.

Net income (loss). Net loss was $54.6, or a negative 22% as a percentage of net sales for the period
June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007 compared to net income of $335.9 million, or 16% as a percentage of net sales for the year ended May 31, 2007. The net loss was primarily due to the Transaction in which $112.8 million was recorded
as stock compensation expense in the period June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007 for the payout of in-the-money stock options at the Transaction date.

For the Year Ended May 31, 2007 Compared to Year Ended May 31, 2006

Net Sales. Net sales in fiscal
2007 were $2,107.4 million, an increase of 4% from fiscal 2006, 2% of the increase in sales related to the positive impact of foreign currency translation.

Product Category Data:



| |  |  | Worldwide sales of reconstructive products increased 9% to $1,503.9 million in fiscal 2007 from $1,379.0 million in fiscal 2006. Factors contributing to this
increase include incremental volume as a result of an increase in the overall market size for reconstructive products and favorable product mix (7%) and the impact of foreign currency translation (2%). During fiscal 2007, worldwide dental
reconstructive product sales increased 15%, extremity sales increased 14%, knee sales increased 8%, hip sales increased 7% and bone cement and accessory sales were flat.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales of fixation devices decreased 11% to $224.7 million in fiscal 2007 from $251.0 million in fiscal 2006. Decreased volume and product mix accounted for this
decrease. Worldwide sales of craniomaxillofacial products, including bone substitutes, increased 2%. Internal fixation devices increased 2%, external fixation devices decreased 13% and electrical stimulation devices decreased 25%.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales of spinal products decreased 7% to $205.8 million in fiscal 2007 from $222.0 million in fiscal 2006. Decreased volume and product mix accounted for this
decrease. Worldwide sales of spinal hardware, including orthobiologics, increased 2% while spinal stimulation product sales decreased 21%. During fiscal 2007, BTBS has underperformed against the market and managements objectives. Results have
also been negatively impacted by the implementation of a new computer system at BTBS. However, management changes have been made and progress has been achieved in the computer system implementation, sales support system, the in-sourcing of the
manufacture of spinal hardware products and the expansion of the research and development team.

| |  |  | Sales of our other products were flat at $173.0 million in each of fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006. Decreased volume and product mix (1%) were offset by the impact
of foreign currency translation (1%). Worldwide sales of arthroscopy products increased 10% and general surgical instrumentation increased 3%, while softgoods and bracing products decreased 5%.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Geographic Markets Data:



| |  |  | Sales in the United States decreased 1% to $1,306.5 million in fiscal 2007 from $1,325.0 million in fiscal 2006. Components of this change were incremental volume
and product mix of reconstructive products (5%), offset by decreases in volume of fixation and spinal products (14%). The pricing environment was neutral for fiscal 2007.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | European sales increased 14% to $595.8 million in fiscal 2007 from $521.0 million in fiscal 2006. Components of this increase were incremental volume and product
mix (8%) and the impact of foreign currency translation (6%).

| |  |  | Sales in International increased 14% to $205.1 million in fiscal 2007 from $180.0 million in fiscal 2006. Components of this increase were incremental volume and
product mix (13%) and the impact of foreign currency translation (1%). We commenced direct sales of our products in Japan during fiscal 2002 and continued to experience good product acceptance with growth at approximately 22% for fiscal 2007 in
local currency.

Gross Margin. Our gross margin increased 1% to $1,465.1 million in fiscal 2007 from $1,443.6
million in fiscal 2006. Our gross margin percentage decreased to 70% of sales in fiscal 2007 from 71% in fiscal 2006. The components of this change are additional expenses of 1% related to inventory write-downs at our BTBS division and 0.4% from
higher growth rates in foreign sales, where gross margins are lower as compared to gross margins on products sold in the United States.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 17% to $881.1 million in fiscal 2007 from $750.2 million in fiscal 2006. This increase results from the renewal and re-negotiation
of distribution agreements with existing distributors (5%), accounts receivable reserves related to our BTBS division (4%), expenses related to the Merger Agreement and retirement/employment costs associated with changes in executive management
(2%), the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) (2%), increased commission expense on higher sales (4%), and an increase in other marketing and general and administrative expenses (1%). These increases were offset by decreased direct to consumer
advertising (1%). As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 42% in fiscal 2007 compared to 37% in fiscal 2006.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased 11% to $85.6 million in fiscal 2007 from $85.0 million in fiscal 2006. The increase reflects a continued emphasis on new product development and
enhancements and additions to our existing product lines and technologies. Also included in the increase is the impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) (3%). As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses were 5% in fiscal 2007 and 4%
in fiscal 2006.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased 20% to $489.6 million in fiscal 2007 from $608.4 million in fiscal
2006. U.S. operating income decreased 26% to $384.0 million in fiscal 2007 from $520.0 million in fiscal 2006, reflecting a slight decrease in sales and the additional expenses discussed above. European operating income increased 24% to $97.0
million in fiscal 2007 from $78.0 million in fiscal 2006. The growth in Europe operating income reflects solid sales growth and favorable foreign currency exchange rates during fiscal 2007 as compared to fiscal 2006. International operating income
decreased 18% to $9.0 million in fiscal 2007 from $11.0 million in fiscal 2006. This decline reflects higher selling expenses due to increased sales and expanding sales forces.

Other Income, Net. Other income, net increased 50% to $21.3 million in fiscal 2007 from $14.3 million in fiscal 2006, while interest expense
decreased 25% to $9.3 million in fiscal 2007 from $11.7 million in fiscal 2006. During fiscal 2007, interest expense decreased as borrowings were reduced and investment income increased as our cash and investments increased. To reduce the risk of
exchange rate gains and losses on transfer of inventory from domestic sites to international sites, we have lines of credit in both Europe and Japan in local currencies. These lines of credit are used solely to fund inventory purchases,
acquisitions, and pay dividends in those local currencies.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes
decreased $39.4 million to $165.7 million, or 33% of income before income taxes, for fiscal 2007 from $205.1 million, or 34% of income before income taxes, for fiscal 2006. The effective income tax rate decreased primarily as a result of a higher
proportionate share of taxable income in countries where tax rates are lower than in the U.S. and the continued benefit from the Qualified Production Activities Deduction in the United States.

Net Income. The factors mentioned above resulted in a 17% decrease in net income to $335.9 million in fiscal 2007 from $405.9 million in fiscal
2006.

July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008

Our cash and investments were $127.6 million as of May 31, 2008. We maintain our cash and investments in money market funds, certificates of deposit,
corporate bonds, debt instruments, auction-rate securities, mortgage-backed securities and equity securities. Our investments are generally liquid and investment grade. We are exposed to interest rate risk on our corporate bonds, debt instruments,
fixed rate preferred equity securities and mortgage-backed securities.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities.Cash generated by
operating activities continues to be a source of funds for investing in our growth. Net cash generated by operations was $188.9 million for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008. Cash generation during this period was impacted due
to the following Merger-related items:



| |  |  | $26.9 million of investment banking fees,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------



| |  |  | $387.3 million paid for interest as a result of the Companys significant new indebtedness following the Merger; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $52.0 million in income taxes payments, being much lower than the expected tax payment had the Merger not occurred.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used for investing was $11,721.8 million for the period from July 12, 2007 through
May 31, 2008. The primary use of cash flows from investing activities for the period from July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 was the acquisition of Biomet, Inc. of $11,638.2 million, as discussed in Note 1 to our consolidated
financial statements. In addition cash flows from investing activities were negatively impacted by capital expenditures of $167.9 million during this period, partly offset by proceeds from sale of investments of $84.7 million. Capital expenditures
in fiscal 2008 included purchases of instruments in the United States of $37.0 million, which were sold to distributors in prior years.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash from financing was $11,481.6 million for the period from July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008. The primary inflow of cash flows from financing activities was for the acquisition
of Biomet, Inc. as discussed in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements, which included equity from Sponsors of $5,387.5 million and new debt facilities of $6,250.7 million. Net payments on credit agreements and deferred financing costs
during the period were $291.0 million.

June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007

Our cash and investments increased to $176.9 million at July 11, 2007, from $105.1 million at May 31, 2007. We maintain our cash and investments
in money market funds, certificates of deposit, corporate bonds, debt instruments, auction-rate securities, mortgage-backed securities and equity securities. Our investments are generally liquid and investment grade. We are exposed to interest rate
risk on its corporate bonds, debt instruments, fixed rate preferred equity securities and mortgage-backed securities. Net cash from operating activities was $59.4 million for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007, impacted by
payments of $18.0 million to distributors associated with renegotiation of distribution agreements. Net cash provided by investing was $11.0 million primarily due to $42.8 million of proceeds from investing activities, which was partly offset by
capital expenditures of $22.0 million for planned improvements to property, plant and equipment.

Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

Our cash and investments increased to $273.8 million at May 31, 2007, from $225.5 at May 31, 2006. We maintain our cash and investments in money
market funds, certificates of deposit, corporate bonds, debt instruments, auction-rate securities, mortgage-backed securities and equity securities. Our investments are generally liquid and investment grade. We are exposed to interest rate risk on
its corporate bonds, debt instruments, fixed rate preferred equity securities and mortgage-backed securities. Net cash from operating activities was $439.8 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $413.4 million in 2006. The principal sources of cash from
operating activities were net income of $335.9 million and non-cash charges of depreciation and amortization of $97.0 million. The principal use of cash includes an increase in the deferred income tax net asset due to the timing of tax deductions
related to expenses for renewal and re-negotiation of distribution agreements and accounts receivable reserves and inventory write-downs at BTBS. Accounts receivable and inventory did not have a significant impact in net cash from operating
activities after giving effect to the non-cash charges included in net income related to BTBS operations.

Cash flows used in investing
activities were $214.0 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $121.0 million in 2006. The primary uses of cash for investing activities in fiscal 2007 and 2006 were purchases of investments and capital expenditures, offset by sales and maturities of
investments. Capital expenditures in 2007 include purchases of instruments in the United States of $36.7 million, which were sold to distributors in prior years. Major capital expenditures for fiscal 2006 were expansion of manufacturing facilities
in New Jersey and Florida, and purchases of instruments outside the United States to support new product launches and sales growth.

Cash
flows used in financing activities were $251.3 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $257.5 million in 2006. The primary uses of funds during 2007 was a cash dividend of $0.30 per share paid on July 21, 2006, and the pay down of short-term
borrowings of $196.8 million. The primary uses of funds during fiscal 2006 was the share repurchase programs, in which $215.3 million was used to purchase 5,986,000 common shares of the Company, and the primary source of funds from financing
activities was proceeds on the exercise of stock options.

Debt Issuance and Credit Facilities

Senior Secured Cash Flow Facilities. On September 25, 2007, we entered into a credit agreement and related security and other agreements
providing for (a) a $2,340.0 million U.S. dollar-denominated senior secured term loan facility and a 875.0 million (approximately $1,362.0 million) euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility and (b) a $400.0 million
senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders from time to time party to the credit agreement. We refer to our senior secured term loan facilities and our
senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility collectively as the senior secured cash flow facilities.

We borrowed the full amount
available under our senior secured term loan facilities on September 25, 2007. During 2008, we repaid $12.0 million of outstanding loans under our U.S. dollar-denominated senior secured

##### Table of Contents

term loan facility and $3.0 million of outstanding loans under the euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility. The senior secured cash flow revolving
credit facility includes a $100.0 million sub-facility for letters of credit and a $100.0 million sub-capacity for borrowings on same-day notice, referred to as swingline loans. We borrowed approximately $100.0 million under our senior secured
cash flow revolving credit facility on September 25, 2007 to pay a portion of the Transaction. As of May 31, 2008, we had no outstanding borrowings under our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility.

Borrowings under our senior secured cash flow facilities bear interest at a rate per annum equal
to an applicable margin plus, at our option, either (1) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (a) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2of 1.00% or (2) a LIBOR or Eurocurrency rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for deposits in the currency of such borrowing for the
interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs. The initial applicable margin for borrowings under (x) our senior secured term loan facilities is 2.00% with respect to base rate borrowings and 3.00% with
respect to LIBOR or Eurocurrency borrowings and (y) our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility is 1.75% with respect to base rate borrowings and 2.75% with respect to LIBOR or Eurocurrency borrowings. The applicable margin under our
senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility may be reduced based on our achievement of certain financial ratios. The Company has entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements with (1) an aggregate notional amount of $1,890.0
million to fix the interest rates on a portion of the borrowings under the $2,340.0 million U.S. dollar-denominated senior secured term loan facility and (2) an aggregate notional amount of 635.0 million to fix the interest rates on
a portion of the borrowings under the 875.0 million (approximately $1,362.0 million) euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility. See Item 7A, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of OperationsQuantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market RiskInterest Rate Risk.

The credit agreement
governing our senior secured cash flow facilities requires us to prepay outstanding term loans, subject to certain exceptions, with: (1) after our first full fiscal year after closing, 50% (which percentage will be reduced to 25% if our senior
secured leverage ratio is less than a specified ratio and will be reduced to 0% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than a specified ratio) of our annual excess cash flow (as defined in our senior secured cash flow facilities), (2) if
our senior secured leverage ratio is greater than a specified ratio, 100% (which percentage will be reduced to 50% if our senior secured leverage ratio is less than a specified ratio and will be reduced to 0% if our senior secured leverage ratio is
less than a specified ratio) of the net cash proceeds of certain non-ordinary course asset sales and casualty and condemnation events, if we do not reinvest those proceeds in assets to be used in our business or to make certain other permitted
investments and (3) 100% of the net cash proceeds of any incurrence of debt other than debt permitted under our senior secured cash flow facilities. All obligations under our senior secured cash flow facilities are unconditionally guaranteed by
Parent, and, subject to certain exceptions, each of our existing and future direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. All obligations under our senior secured cash flow facilities, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured,
subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of our assets and the assets of Parent and the subsidiary guarantors.

Our senior
secured cash flow facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, will restrict our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to: (1) incur additional indebtedness; (2) pay
dividends on our capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire our capital stock or indebtedness; (3) make investments, loans, advances and acquisitions; (4) create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from our
restricted subsidiaries; (5) engage in transactions with our affiliates; (6) sell assets, including capital stock of our subsidiaries; (7) consolidate or merge; (8) create liens; and (9) enter into sale and lease-back
transactions. In addition, the credit agreement governing our senior secured cash flow facilities does not require us to comply with any financial ratio maintenance covenants.

The credit agreement governing our senior secured cash flow facilities also contains certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

Senior Secured Asset-based Revolving Credit Facility. On September 25, 2007, we entered into
a credit agreement and related security and other agreements for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders from time to time party to the credit
agreement. Our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility provides senior secured financing of up to $350.0 million, subject to borrowing base limitations. The borrowing base at any time will equal the sum of 85% of eligible accounts
receivable and 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory (not to exceed 65% of the borrowing base), less certain reserves and subject to certain limitations on consigned inventory and accounts receivable owed by non-U.S.
persons. Our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility includes a $100.0 million sub-facility for letters of credit and a $35.0 million sub-facility for borrowings on same-day notice, referred to as swingline loans. We did not draw on our
senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility at the closing of the Transactions and there were no amounts outstanding as of May 31, 2008. As of May 31, 2008, the borrowing base under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit
facility was $350.0 million.

Borrowings under our senior secured asset-based
revolving credit facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin plus, at our option, either (1) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (a) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (b) the
federal funds effective rate plus1/2 of 1.00% or (2) a LIBOR or Eurocurrency rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for deposits in
the currency of such borrowing for the interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs. The initial applicable margin for borrowings under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility is 0.75% with
respect to base rate borrowings and 1.75% with respect to LIBOR or Eurocurrency borrowings. The applicable margin may be reduced based on our achievement of certain specified ratios.

If at any time the aggregate amount of outstanding loans, unreimbursed letter of credit drawings and undrawn letters of credit under our senior secured
asset-based revolving credit facility exceeds the lesser of (1) the commitment amount and (2) the borrowing base, we will be required to repay outstanding loans or cash collateralize letters of credit in an aggregate amount equal to such
excess, with no reduction of the commitment amount. If the aggregate amount available under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility and our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility is less than $75.0 million plus 10% of
any additional commitments under this facility or certain events of default have occurred under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, we are required to repay outstanding loans and cash collateralize letters of credit with the
cash we are required to deposit daily in a collection account maintained with the agent under the facility. All obligations under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility are unconditionally guaranteed by Parent. All obligations
under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of our assets and the assets of the subsidiary borrowers that consist of all
accounts receivable, inventory, cash, deposit accounts and certain related intangible assets and proceeds of the foregoing.

Like our
senior secured cash flow facilities described above, our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility contains a number of covenants that restrict our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries. The covenants limiting
(1) dividends and other restricted payments, (2) investments, loans, advances and acquisitions and (3) prepayments or redemptions of other indebtedness each permit the restricted actions in an unlimited amount, subject to the
satisfaction of certain payment conditions, principally that we must have at least $112.5 million plus 15% of any additional commitments under this facility of pro forma excess availability under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit
facility and our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility in the aggregate, and that we must be in pro forma compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio described in the next sentence. Although the credit agreement governing our senior
secured asset-based revolving credit facility does not require us to comply with any financial ratio maintenance covenants, if less than $35.0 million plus 10% of any additional commitments under this facility were available under our senior secured
asset-based revolving credit facility at any time, we would not be permitted to borrow any additional amounts unless our pro forma ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures minus Cash Taxes to (b) Fixed Charges (as such
terms are defined in the credit agreement and in each case for the most recently ended four quarter period) were at least 1.0 to 1.0. The credit agreement governing our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility also contains certain
customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

##### Table of Contents

Notes. We issued an aggregate of $2,348.0 million of original notes on September 25, 2007 and
an aggregate of $217.0 million of original notes on October 16, 2007 (which were issued at a premium above par of $6.0 million). The notes are our unsecured obligations, with $1,550.0 million being our senior obligations (consisting of
$775.0 million of senior cash pay notes and $775.0 million of senior toggle notes) and $1,015.0 million being our senior subordinated obligations. All of the notes are guaranteed by each of the existing and future wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under our senior secured cash flow facilities. Interest is payable in cash, semi-annually, except with respect to our ability to elect to pay PIK interest, rather than cash interest, on the senior toggle
notes subject to certain exceptions.

The indentures governing the notes, among other things, limit our and our restricted
subsidiaries ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock, pay dividends and make other restricted payments, make certain investments, sell assets, create liens, consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all
of our assets, enter into transactions with affiliates and designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to important exceptions during any period of time for which (i) the respective notes have received
investment grade ratings from Moodys and S&P and (ii) no default has occurred and is continuing under the indentures that govern the respective notes.

Unsecured Credit Facilities. As of May 31, 2008, we had a European line of credit in the amount of 100.0 million (approximately $156.0 million). Outstanding borrowings under this line of credit
bear interest at a variable rate of the lenders interbank rate plus an applicable margin and, accordingly, changes in interest rates impact our cost of financing. As of May 31, 2008, we had $46.6 million in outstanding borrowings under
our European facilities.

Future Financing Activities

We believe that our cash, other liquid assets and operating cash flow, together with available borrowings and potential access to credit and capital markets, will be sufficient to meet our operating expenses, research
and development costs and capital expenditures and service our debt requirements as they become due. As of May 31, 2008, we had (1) $400.0 million available for borrowing under our senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility,
(2) $350.0 million available for borrowing under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, (3) the option to incur additional incremental term loans or increase the cash flow revolving credit facility commitments under our
senior secured cash flow facilities of up to an amount that would cause our Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in our senior secured cash flow facilities) to be equal to or less than 4.50 to 1.00, (4) the option to increase the
asset-based revolving credit commitments under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility by up to $100.0 million and (5) $119.0 million available for borrowing under our European line of credit. However, our ongoing ability to
meet our substantial debt service and other obligations will be dependent upon our future performance which will be subject to business, financial and other factors. We will not be able to control many of these factors, such as economic conditions
in the markets where we operate and pressure from competitors. We cannot be certain that our cash flows will be sufficient to allow us to pay principal and interest on our debt, support our operations and meet our other obligations. If we do not
have enough money, we may be required to refinance all or part of our existing debt, sell assets or borrow more money. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so on terms acceptable to us, if at all. In addition, the terms of existing or
future debt agreements may restrict us from pursuing any of these alternatives. Also note the we expect to spend in excess of $500.0 over the next two fiscal years for capital expenditures and research and development costs in an effort to develop
products and technologies that further enhance musculoskeletal procedures. See Risk Factors for specific financing risks.

Capital
Expenditures and Investments

We maintain our cash and investments in bank deposits, money market funds, certificates of deposit,
corporate bonds, auction-rate securities, debt instruments, mortgage-backed securities and equity securities. Our investments are generally liquid and investment grade. However our auction-rate security holdings have been

subject to the dislocation in that market which began in February 2008. As a result, we took a temporary impairment charge within other comprehensive income
of $3.2 million as of May 31, 2008 reducing our fair value of auction-rate securities to $30.8 million. We are exposed to interest rate risk on our corporate bonds, auction-rate securities, debt instruments, fixed rate preferred equity
securities and mortgage-backed securities. See Note 5 within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for more information. As a result of the growth prospects in our markets, we intend to invest in an effort to improve our worldwide
market position. We expect to spend in excess of $500.0 million over the next two fiscal years for capital expenditures (including instrumentation issued to the field) and research and development costs in an effort to develop products and
technologies that further enhance musculoskeletal procedures. Funding of these and other activities is expected to come from currently available funds, cash flows generated from future operations, and bank credit lines. See Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for available balances. We have no off-balance sheet financial arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

Summarized in the table below are our long-term obligations and commitments as of May 31,
2008. We have issued notes, entered into senior secured credit facilities, including senior secured term loan facilities and a senior secured cash flow revolving credit facility, and a senior secured asset-based revolving facility, all subsequent to
the Merger, all of which are classified as long-term. There were no borrowings under either revolver as of May 31, 2008. Our senior secured term loan facilities amortize each year in an amount equal to 1% of the original principal in equal
quarterly installments for the first seven years and three months. The Company did have debt agreements survive the Merger (European facilities) and as of May 31, 2008, the amount of principal payments due within the next twelve-month period is
$38.4 million.

In addition, due to the uncertainty with respect to the timing of future cash flows associated with our unrecognized tax benefits at May 31, 2008,
Biomet is unable to make reasonably reliable estimates of the period of cash settlement with the respective taxing authority. Therefore, $50.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits have been excluded from the contractual obligations table above.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Managements discussion and analysis of our financial position and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements each included elsewhere herein. In managements opinion, our critical accounting policies include revenue
recognition, excess and obsolete inventory, goodwill and intangible assets, legal proceedings and other loss contingencies, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes and valuation of purchased in-process research and development.

Revenue Recognition

We sell product through three principle channels: (1) direct to healthcare institutions, referred to as direct channel accounts, (2) through stocking distributors and healthcare dealers, (3) indirectly
through insurance companies and (4) directly to dental practices and dental laboratories. Sales through the direct and distributor/dealer channels account for a majority of our net sales. Through these channels, inventory is generally consigned
to sales agents or customers so that products are available when needed for surgical procedures. Revenue is not recognized upon the placement of inventory into consignment as we retain title and maintain the inventory on our balance sheet; however,
it is recognized upon implantation and receipt of proper purchase order and/or purchase requisition documentation. Pricing for products is generally predetermined by contracts with customers, agents acting on behalf of customer groups or by
government regulatory bodies, depending on the market. Price discounts under group purchasing contracts are generally linked to volume of implant purchases by customer healthcare institutions within a specified group. At negotiated thresholds within
a contract buying period, price discounts may increase. Revenue is recognized on sales to stocking distributors, healthcare dealers, dental practices and dental laboratories when title to product passes to them, generally upon shipment. Certain
subsidiaries allow customers to return product in the event that we terminate the relationship. Under those circumstances, we record an estimated sales return in the period in which constructive notice of termination is given to a distributor.
Product returns were not significant for the periods June 1, 2007 to July 12, 2007, July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008 and years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006. At certain locations the Company records a contractual allowance
that is offset against revenue for each sale to a non contracted payor so that revenue is recorded at the estimated determinable price at the time of the sale.

Excess and Obsolete Inventory

In our industry, inventory is routinely placed at hospitals to provide the healthcare
provider with the appropriate product when needed. Because product usage tends to follow a bell curve, larger and smaller sizes of inventory are provided, but infrequently used. In addition, the musculoskeletal market is highly competitive, with new
products, raw materials and procedures being introduced continually, which may obsolete products currently on the market. We must make estimates regarding the future use of these products and provide a provision for excess and obsolete inventory. If
actual product life cycles, product demand or market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required which would affect future operating results.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

When a
business combination occurs, such as our related Merger, the purchase price is allocated based upon the fair value of tangible assets as well as goodwill and other intangible assets. We determine the fair value based on a valuation of the future
cash flows related to the specific assets in question. The valuation performed uses significant estimates to estimate the future cash flows.

In assessing the recoverability of our intangibles and goodwill, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. If these estimates or their related
assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets at a time other than our annual assessment date.

Other Loss Contingencies

We have a self-insured retention against product liability claims with insurance coverage
over and above the retention. There are various other claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, investigations and pending actions involving various allegations against us. Product liability claims are routinely reviewed by our insurance
carrier and management routinely reviews all claims for purposes of establishing ultimate loss estimates. In addition, management must determine the estimated liability for claims incurred, but not reported. Such estimates and any subsequent changes
in estimates may result in adjustments to our operating results in the future.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

On June 1, 2006, we adopted revised SFAS No. 123(R), which requires all share-based payments to be recognized in our financial statements based
on their respective grant date fair values. Under this standard, the fair value of each employee stock option is estimated on the date of grant using an option-pricing model that meets certain requirements. We currently use the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of our share-based payments. The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards utilizing the Black-Scholes model is affected by a number of assumptions, including expected volatility,
expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility based on historical volatility of options issued subsequent to the Merger date by using our competitors historical stock prices. The expected life of
the Options is based on the life of the option and vesting period. The risk-free interest rate assumption is the implied yield currently available on zero-coupon U.S. Government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the Options.
The dividend yield assumption is based on the historical dividend yield of our Shares. Forfeitures are required to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.
We will evaluate the assumptions used to value stock-based awards periodically and adjust them if necessary. If factors change and we employ different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense may differ significantly from what we have recorded
in the past.

Income Taxes

We
record income tax estimates in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes; however, there are inherent risks that could create uncertainties related to the estimates. We adjust estimates based on normal operating circumstances and
conclusions related to tax audits. Effective June 1, 2007, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement 109, or FIN 48. FIN 48
addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the tax benefits from an uncertain tax position may be recognized only if it is more
likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income
taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. FIN 48 requires significant judgment in determining what constitutes an individual tax position as well as assessing the outcome of each tax position. We do not believe any
audit finding could materially affect our financial position; however there could be a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and cash flows of a given period.

Valuation of Purchased In-Process Research and Development

When a business combination
occurs, such as our related Merger, the purchase price is allocated based upon the fair value of tangible assets and in-process research and development, or IPRD. We recognize IPRD in business combinations for the portion of the purchase price
allocated to the appraised value of in-process technologies, defined as those technologies relating to products that have not received FDA approval and have no alternative future use. The portion assigned to in-process technologies excludes the
value of core developed technologies, which are recognized as intangible assets when purchased. Valuations require the use of significant estimates. The amount of the purchase price allocated to IPRD is determined by estimating future cash flows of
the technology and discounting net cash flows back to present values. We consider, among other things, the projects stage of completion, complexity of the work competed as the acquisition date, costs already incurred, projected costs to
complete, contribution of core technologies and other acquired assets, expected introduction date and the estimated useful life of the technology. The discount rate used to arrive at a present value as of the date of acquisition is based on the time
value of money and medical technology investment risk. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of identifiable net assets of the business acquired and the amount allocated to IPRD. We believe methodologies used in arriving at these
estimates are in accordance with accepted valuation methods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 141R (revised 2007), Business Combinations. SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a
business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date at fair value. SFAS 141R determines what
information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after
the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not permitted.

In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning
June 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which defers the effective date of Statement 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial
liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, which for us is our fiscal 2010. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not
expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued
SFAS 159, Establishing the Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities, to permit all entities to choose to elect to measure eligible financial instruments at fair value. SFAS 159 applies to fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted for an entity that has also elected to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. An entity is prohibited from retrospectively applying SFAS 159, unless it chooses early adoption. On June 1, 2008 the
Company will adopt SFAS 159 and expect the impact to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB
issued SFAS 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB 51. SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards that require non-controlling interests to be reported as a component of
equity, changes in a parents ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling interest be accounted for as equity transactions, and any retained non-controlling equity investment upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially
measured at fair value. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of
SFAS No. 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161,
Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activitiesan Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. This statement requires entities that utilize derivative instruments to provide qualitative disclosures about their objectives
and strategies for using such instruments, as well as any details of credit-risk-related contingent features contained within derivatives. It also requires entities to disclose additional information about the amounts and location of derivatives
located within the financial statements, how the provisions of SFAS No. 133 have been applied and the impact that hedges have on an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This statement is effective for
fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2007, the FASB executive task force issued EITF-07-3 Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use
in Future Research and Development Activities. The EITF provides guidance for entities that may make nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used in future research and development activities and whether the advance
payment should be expensed when the advance payment is made or when the research and development activity has been performed. EITF 07-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. On
June 1, 2008 the Company will adopt EITF-07 and expect the impact to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.

|Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
|-------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

In the normal course of business, operations of the Company are exposed fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies. These fluctuations can vary the cost of financing, investment yields and operations of the Company.

Interest Rate Risk

Our principal exposure
to interest rate risk arises from variable rates associated with our credit facilities. For a description of these facilities, refer to Note 7 Debt to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

The Company does not have any investments that would be classified as trading securities under generally accepted accounting principles. The
Companys non-trading investments, excluding cash and cash equivalents, consist of debt securities, equity securities, auction-rate securities and mortgage-backed securities. The debt securities include municipal bonds, with fixed rates, and
preferred stocks, which pay quarterly fixed rate dividends. These financial instruments are subject to market risk in that changes in interest rates would impact the market value of such investments. The Company utilizes derivatives to hedge against
increases in interest rates which decrease market values in two areas; 1) one of our investment managers utilized U.S. Treasury bond futures options (futures options) as a protection against the impact of increases in interest rates on the fair
value of preferred stocks and 2) interest rate swap agreements.

The Company marks any outstanding futures options to market and market
value changes are recognized in current earnings. The futures options generally have terms ranging from 90 to 180 days. Net realized gains (losses) on sales of futures options aggregated zero for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11,
2007 and for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 and $0.1 million for the year ended May 31, 2007 and unrealized gains (losses) on outstanding futures options for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007, for
the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 and for the year ended May 31, 2007, were nominal.

On August 7, 2007 and
August 17, 2007, we entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $1,890.0 million to fix the interest rates on a portion of the borrowings under the $2,340.0 million U.S. dollar-denominated senior
secured term loan facility and during August 2007 and March 2008, we entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of 505.0 million to fix the interest rates on a portion of the borrowings under
the 875.0 million (approximately $1,329.0 million) euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility. As of May 31, 2008, the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements relating to our U.S. dollar-denominated senior secured
term loan facility was approximately an $10.2 million net unrealized gain, and the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements relating to our euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility was approximately 19.0 million
(approximately $29.5 million) net unrealized loss.

Based on the Companys overall interest rate exposure at May 31, 2008,
including variable rate debt, a hypothetical 10 percent change in interest rates applied to the fair value of the financial instruments discussed above as of May 31, 2008, would not have a material impact on earnings, cash flows or fair values
of interest rate risk sensitive instruments over a one-year period. Net realized gains (losses) on sales of futures options were nominal for the period from June 1, 2007 through May 31, 2008 and there were no outstanding futures options at
May 31, 2008.

Foreign Currency Risk

Certain assets, liabilities and forecasted transactions are exposed to foreign currency risk, primarily the fluctuation of the U.S. Dollar against European currencies. The Company faces transactional currency
exposures that arise when its foreign subsidiaries (or the Company itself) enter into transactions, generally on an

intercompany basis, denominated in currencies other than their local currency. The Company also faces currency exposure that arises from translating the
results of its global operations to the U.S. dollar at exchange rates that fluctuate. The Company has not used financial derivatives to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates, except we have designated our 875.0 million
(approximately $1,329.0 million) euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility as a hedge of our net investment in our European subsidiary. Our net investment in our European subsidiary at the hedging date of September 25, 2007 was
$1,690.0 million (1,238.0 million). The difference of 363.0 million between the net investment and debt amount remained unhedged as of May 31, 2008. As a result of cash flow hedge treatment being applied, all gains and losses
related to the derivative instrument are included in other comprehensive income. Effectiveness is tested quarterly to determine hedge treatment is still reasonable. The Company tests effectiveness on this net investment hedge by determining that the
net investment in its European subsidiaries is greater than the outstanding debt balance. If the hedge is deemed ineffective, gains and losses will be recorded through the statement of operations.

Based on the Companys overall exposure for foreign currency at May 31, 2008, a hypothetical 10 percent change in foreign currency rates would
not have a material impact on the Companys balance sheet, net sales, net income (loss) or cash flows over a one-year period.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Biomet, Inc.

Warsaw, Indiana

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Biomet, Inc. and subsidiaries (Biomet-successor) as of May 31, 2008, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity, and cash flows for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008. We have also audited the Biomet, Inc. and subsidiaries (Biomet-predecessor) consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders equity and cash flows for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule as of May 31, 2008 listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and
financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Biomet-successor as of May 31, 2008, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further, in our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements for Biomet-predecessor present fairly, in all material respects, the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period June 1, 2007 through July 11, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule as of May 31, 2008, when considered in relation to the basic 2008 consolidated financial statements of Biomet-successor taken as a whole, present fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, LVB Acquisition, LLC acquired
Biomet, Inc. and subsidiaries. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination and the basis of assets and liabilities were adjusted to their estimated fair values. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements as of and for the
successor period ended May 31, 2008 are not comparable with prior periods.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, effective June
1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.

Biomet, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1Merger.

On December 18, 2006, Biomet, Inc.
(Biomet or Company) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with LVB Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (LVB), and LVB Acquisition Merger Sub, Inc., an Indiana corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of LVB (Purchaser), which agreement was amended and restated as of June 7, 2007 (the Merger Agreement). LVB is controlled by a consortium of private equity funds: Blackstone Capital Partners V
L.P., Goldman Sachs Investments Ltd., KKR 2006 Fund L.P. and Texas Pacific Group (each a Sponsor and collectively, the Sponsors). The Sponsors, along with other investors contributed $5,387.5 million of equity in connection
with the Transactions (as defined below).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on June 13, 2007, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer (the
Offer and together with the Merger, the Transactions), to purchase all of Biomets outstanding common shares, without par value (the Shares), at a price of $46.00 per share (the Offer Price),
without interest and less any required withholding taxes. The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on July 11, 2007, with 82.4% of the outstanding Shares having been tendered to Purchaser. On July 17, 2007, Purchaser
completed its purchase of the tendered shares for $9,319.7 million.

In connection with the closing of the Offer, all outstanding options to purchase
shares under Biomets stock plans (each an Option), vested or unvested, were cancelled and each Option holder was paid an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the Offer Price over the applicable option exercise price for
each share subject to an Option, less any required withholding taxes.

In connection with the Offer, Purchaser entered into a credit agreement dated
July 11, 2007 (Merger Date) for a $6,165.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the Tender Facility), maturing on June 6, 2008, and pursuant to which it borrowed $4,181.0 million to finance a portion of the
Offer and pay related fees and expenses. Additional financing for the Offer was provided in the form of equity contributions from the Sponsors, which collectively caused $5,197.0 million to be contributed as equity to LVB Acquisition Holding, LLC,
(Holding), concurrently with the funding of the Tender Facility. Holding, which owned 100% of the outstanding equity interests in LVB at the time of the Offer, contributed such funds to LVB, which in turn contributed such funds to
Purchaser.

As a result of Purchaser having acquired 82.4% of the outstanding shares pursuant to the Offer, Biomet called a special meeting of shareholders
to vote upon the Merger. At this meeting, LVB and Purchaser voted all of their shares to approve the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger (the Effective Time), each share, other than the shares owned by LVB or Purchaser
immediately prior to the Effective Time, were cancelled automatically, ceased to exist and converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, without interest and less any required withholding taxes. Additional funds necessary to complete the
Merger were funded using equity contributions by certain of Biomets directors and equity contribution or rollover of existing equity interests by certain of Biomets executive officers and members of Biomets senior management, an
offering of high-yield debt securities, initial borrowings under Biomets new $2,340.0 million senior secured term loan facility, 875 million euro-denominated senior secured term loan facility, $400.0 million senior secured cash flow
revolving facility, and $350.0 million asset based revolving credit facility, proceeds from offering of $775.0 million senior cash pay notes due 2017, $775.0 million senior toggle notes due 2017, $1,015.0 million senior subordinated notes due 2017,
its cash on hand and additional equity contributions by the Sponsors.

On September 5, 2007, Biomets shareholders approved the Merger Agreement
and on September 25, 2007, LVB completed the acquisition of Biomet through the merger of Purchaser with and into Biomet. As a result of the Merger, Biomet became a 99.9% subsidiary of LVB. The remaining 0.1% was a purchase of common stock by
Company management as a result of the LVB Acquisition Management Shareholder Agreement.

Note 1Merger, Continued



In the Merger, each share, other than the shares owned by LVB or Purchaser immediately prior to the effective time of
the Merger, was converted into the right to receive $46.00 per share, without interest and less any required withholding taxes. The aggregate consideration paid by the Purchaser was $11.6 billion, consisting of Company common stock valued at
$11.3 billion (100% ownership), $57.0 million of cash, and $344.0 million of fees and expenses.

On June 13, 2007 the Company filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the Schedule 14D-9) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In the Schedule 14D-9 the Company disclosed the Board of
Directors unanimous recommendation that shareholders tender their shares of common stock into the Offer, or otherwise vote to approve the Merger.

The primary reason for the acquisition is to support the Companys initiative to enhance its position as a leading orthopedic medical device company by pursuing the following strategic initiatives: continue to develop and launch new
products and technologies, enhance surgeon customer relationships through product performance and innovation, expand its global reach, focus on operational efficiency and maximize free cash flows.

The Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting pursuant to Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, Business
Combinations. Accordingly, the effect of the Merger has been included in the Companys consolidated statement of operations subsequent to the Merger Date, and the respective assets and liabilities have been recorded at their estimated fair
values in the Companys consolidated balance sheet as of the Merger Date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill.

As of
July 12, 2007, the effective date of the Merger, the Successor Company began operating under a new basis of accounting for its financial statements. Because of the new basis of accounting, the Predecessor Companys historical financial
information is not comparable to the Successor Companys financial information for periods after July 11, 2007.

The Company has preliminarily
allocated the purchase price to the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Biomet based on estimated fair values utilizing generally accepted valuation methodologies. Both assets and liabilities were valued as of July 11, 2007. On
July 11, 2007 82.4% of the step up was recorded and combined with 17.6% of the Predecessor company. On September 25, 2007 the remaining fair value step-up of 17.6% was recorded. See summary below of the allocation of the purchase price:

Note 1Merger, Continued.



The preliminary purchase price allocation was based on information currently available to the Company, and
expectations, assumptions, and valuation methodologies deemed reasonable by the Companys management. No assurance can be given, however, that the underlying assumptions used to estimate expected technology based product revenues, development
costs or profitability, or the events associated with such technology, will occur as projected. For these reasons, among others, the actual results may vary from the projected results. Goodwill recorded as a result of the Merger is not deductible
for income tax purposes. The final valuation and associated purchase price allocation is expected to be completed as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the completion of the acquisition. The primary area of the purchase price
allocation that is not yet finalized relates to income taxes. To the extent that the estimates need to be adjusted, the Company will do so.

In-process research and development (IPRD) products are at a stage of development that require further research and development to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability. IPRD valued in the amount of $479.0 million
pertains to technology that was not technologically feasible at the date of acquisition and had no future alternative use. The fair value of the IPRD was determined based on the excess earnings method of projected revenues. The fair value was
allocated to all business units which involve our four product segments: reconstructive, fixation, spinal, and other products. The significant assumptions made by management and used in the model were revenue projections for each project, project
timing, discount rates used, and the related costs to complete each project. The IPRD does not have any alternative future use and did not otherwise qualify for capitalization. As a result, this amount was expensed upon acquisition.

IPRD projects for Biomet Orthopedics focus on the utilization of new materials, new methods for fabricating existing materials, and new geometries of both new and
existing materials to enhance function, durability and bony fixation for orthopedic implant devices primarily focused in the area of partial and total joint replacement. IPRD projects also focus in the area of innovative methods for surgically
implanting orthopedic implant devices. Orthopedics had 43 projects in development as of July 11, 2007. Certain projects were completed by May 31, 2008, with remaining projects having general anticipated completion dates ranging from
the first quarter of fiscal 2009 to the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The estimated costs to complete these IPRD projects for Biomet Orthopedics as of the date of the acquisition were $51.0 million. IPRD projects for Biomet Orthopedics
averaged 30% completion as of the acquisition date.

IPRD projects for Biomet Trauma and Biomet Spine (BTBS) are primarily related to addressing unmet
needs in the musculoskeletal market utilizing both traditional and new technologies. BTBS had 47 projects in development as of July 11, 2007. Certain projects were completed by May 31, 2008, with remaining projects having general projected
completion dates ranging from the first quarter of fiscal 2009 through the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The estimated costs to complete these IPRD projects for BTBS as of the date of the acquisition were $33.0 million. IPRD projects for BTBS
averaged 75% completion as of the acquisition date.

IPRD projects for Biomet Europe focus primarily on improvements to joint replacement implants, such as
wear resistant bearing combinations for hip replacement, total and partial knee prostheses with improved kinematic performance, novel shoulder implants for improved stability and range of motion and development of instrumentation with improved
accuracy and ergonomics. Biomet Europe had 85 projects in development as of July 11, 2007. Certain projects were completed by May 31, 2008, with remaining projects having anticipated completion dates ranging from the first quarter of
fiscal 2009 to the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The estimated costs to complete these IPRD projects for Europe as of the date of the acquisition were $15.0 million. IPRD projects for Biomet Europe averaged 50% completion as of the acquisition
date.

IPRD projects for Biomet Biologics focus primarily on producing new devices and applications to use autologous materials for regenerative tissue
therapies. Biologics had 12 projects in development as of July 11, 2007. Certain projects were completed by May 31, 2008, with remaining projects having anticipated completion dates ranging

from the third quarter of fiscal 2009 through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. The estimated costs to complete these IPRD projects for Biologics as of the
date of the acquisition were $13.0 million. IPRD projects for Biologics averaged 50% completion as of the acquisition date.

IPRD projects for Biomet
Sports Medicine focus on the utilization of new technologies, materials and devices to primarily treat soft tissues defects in tendons, ligaments and cartilage. This is accomplished through arthroscopic application of fixation devices and
biomaterials. Sports Medicine had 16 projects in development as of July 11, 2007. The estimated costs to complete Sports Medicines IPRD as of the date of the acquisition were $1.0 million. The projects averaged 50% completion as of the
date of the acquisition and have been fully completed by May 31, 2008.

IPRD projects for Biomet 3i focus on the development of intraoral
rehabilitation, generally in the area of dental implants, associated components, surgical instrumentation and regenerative therapies necessary for the placement of the implants. Biomet 3i had 22 projects in development as of July 11, 2007.
Certain projects were completed by May 31, 2008, with remaining projects having general projected completion dates ranging from the first quarter of fiscal 2009 through the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The estimated costs to complete Biomet
3is IPRD as of the date of the acquisition were $8.0 million. The projects were estimated to be 35% complete as of the acquisition date.

Proforma Results

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations have been prepared as if the Merger had
occurred at the beginning of each of fiscal year 2008 and 2007. The selected unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations presented below reflect the purchase method of accounting and have been adjusted for the estimated changes in
depreciation and amortization expense on acquired tangible and intangible assets. Interest expense and interest income have been adjusted to coincide with the post acquisition cash and debt balances of the combined Company. Income taxes have also
been adjusted to reflect an estimated annual effective tax rate. The pro forma information has not been adjusted for any operating synergies or other anticipated cost savings that may result from the merger. As a result, these unaudited pro forma
consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the historical results that may have been achieved had the companies been combined during the periods presented and is not intended to be a projection of future results.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the year ended May 31, 2008 includes
nonrecurring items including, in-process research and development, financing fees related to the Merger, additional cost of sales due to the inventory step-up, costs to settle in-the-money stock options as a result of the Merger and the tax effect
of such items. Goodwill established in the Merger is not tax deductible.

Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of
Operations.

GeneralThe Company is one of the largest orthopedic medical device companies in the United States and worldwide with
operations in over 50 locations throughout the world and distribution in approximately 90 countries. The Company designs, manufactures and markets a comprehensive range of both surgical and



84

Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations, Continued.



non-surgical products used primarily by orthopedic surgeons and other musculoskeletal medical specialists. For approximately 30 years, the Company has
applied advanced engineering and manufacturing technology to the development of highly durable joint replacement systems.

ProductsThe Company
operates in one business segment, musculoskeletal products, which includes the design, manufacture and marketing of products in four major market categories: Reconstructive Products, Fixation Devices, Spinal Products and Other Products. The Company
has three reportable geographic segments: United States, Europe and International.

ReconstructiveReconstructive products include implants and
instrumentation for replacing knees and hips as well as extremity joints that have deteriorated due to disease (principally osteoarthritis) or injury. This category also includes our dental reconstructive business, which includes implants and
abutments, augmented by a growing line of our other reconstructive products such as regenerative products, accessories and biologic products.

FixationFixation devices are used for setting and stabilizing damaged bones to support and/or augment the bodys natural healing process. Electrical stimulation devices used in trauma indications offer implantable and
non-invasive options to stimulate bone growth. Other products include internal fixation devices (such as nails, plates, screws, pins and wires used to stabilize traumatic bone injuries), external fixation devices (used to stabilize fractures when
alternative methods of fixation are not suitable), craniomaxillofacial fixation systems and bone substitute materials.

SpinalSpinal products
include devices and instrumentation for repairing defects or wear and tear in the vertebral column. Key products in this category include implantable and non-invasive electrical stimulation devices for spinal indications (used to enhance bone fusion
success), spinal fixation systems used to stabilize the spine, bone substitute materials and allograft services used in spinal fusion procedures, as well as motion preservation systems.

OtherThe Company manufactures and distributes a number of other products, including sports medicine products (used in minimally-invasive orthopedic surgical procedures), orthopedic support products (also
referred to as softgoods and bracing products), operating room supplies, casting materials, general surgical instruments, wound care products and other surgical products.

Basis of PresentationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Biomet, Inc. and its subsidiaries (individually and collectively referred to as the Company or
Biomet). The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of Biomet and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. The Companys financial position as of May 31, 2008 and results of operations for the period July 12, 2007 through May 31, 2008 are not comparative to the Companys financial position
and results of operations for periods prior to July 12, 2007 because of the new basis of accounting resulting from the Transaction. Minority interest created as a result of the merger for the period July 12, 2007 to September 25, 2007
was not material. Also the Company eliminated a one month reporting lag with its foreign subsidiaries as of the acquisition date.

Translation of
Foreign CurrencyAssets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the close of their fiscal period. Revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted average exchange rates during the
period. Translation gains and losses are accumulated within other comprehensive



85

income (loss) as a separate component of shareholders equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from product transfer between
subsidiaries are recorded in cost of goods sold. Other foreign currency exchange gains and losses that do not involve the movement of product and are not material, are included in other income (expense), net.

Cash and Cash EquivalentsThe Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the acquisition date to be
cash equivalents.

InvestmentsThe Company invests the majority of its excess cash in bank deposits and money market securities. The Company
also holds municipal, corporate and mortgage-backed securities, common stocks and auction-rate securities. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents or investments. The Company
accounts for its investments in debt and equity securities under SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, which requires certain securities to be categorized as trading, available-for-sale or
held-to-maturity. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded within other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of shareholders equity. Held-to-maturity securities are
carried at amortized cost. The Company has no trading securities. The cost of investment securities sold is determined by the specific identification method. Dividend and interest income are accrued as earned. The Company reviews its investments
quarterly for declines in market value that are other- than-temporary. Investments that have declined in market value that are determined to be other-than-temporary are charged to other income by writing that investment down to market value.
Investments are classified as short-term for those expected to mature or be sold within twelve months and the remaining portion is classified in long-term investments.

Risk Management

Foreign Currency InstrumentsCertain assets, liabilities and forecasted
transactions are exposed to foreign currency risk, primarily the fluctuation of the U.S. Dollar against European currencies. The Company faces transactional currency exposures that arise when its foreign subsidiaries (or the Company itself)
enter into transactions, primarily on an intercompany basis, denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. The Company also faces currency exposure that arises from translating the results of its global operations to the
U.S. Dollar at exchange rates that have fluctuated from the beginning of the period. The Company has hedged a portion of its net investment in European subsidiaries with the issuance of a 875.0 million principal amount term loan on
September 25, 2007. The Companys net investment in European subsidiaries at the hedging date of September 25, 2007 was $1,690.0 million (1,238.0 million). As of May 31, 2008 the difference between the net investment and
the currently outstanding principal amount of 367.0, remained unhedged. Effectiveness is tested quarterly to determine whether hedge treatment is still appropriate. The Company tests effectiveness on this net investment hedge by determining
that the net investment in our European subsidiaries is greater than the outstanding debt balance. Any ineffectiveness is recorded through the income statement.

Interest Rate InstrumentsThe Company entered into interest rate swap agreements (cash flow hedges) in
both U.S. Dollars and Euro on September 25, 2007 and March 25, 2008 as a means of fixing the interest rate on portions of our floating-rate debt instruments. See the table below for existing contracts:

The interest rate swap liability at May 31, 2008 was $19.3 million and is included in other current
liabilities. As a result of cash flow hedge treatment being applied, all unrealized gains and losses related to the derivative instrument are included in other comprehensive income. Effectiveness is tested quarterly to determine if hedge treatment
is still appropriate. Those unrealized gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income would be required to be reclassified to the statement of operations if at any time the contracts are deemed ineffective, upon maturity of the contracts,
or calling the contracts early.*The Company did not enter into derivative instruments prior to fiscal 2008.

Comprehensive IncomeTotal comprehensive income combines reported net income (loss) and foreign
currency translation adjustments, unrealized appreciation/depreciation of available-for-sale securities, unrealized gain and losses related to the net investment in the Euro term loan, and unrecognized actuarial loss on pension assets and interest
rate swap derivatives. Total other comprehensive income (loss) and the related components are included in the table below:

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Allowance for Doubtful ReceivablesThe Company provides
credit, in the normal course of business, to hospitals, private and governmental institutions and healthcare agencies, insurance providers and physicians. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful receivables based on estimated collection
rates and charges actual losses to the allowance when incurred. The estimated collection rates require management judgment.

Fair Value of Financial
InstrumentsThe carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, investments, receivables, short-term borrowings, derivative instruments, and variable and fixed rate debt that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair
value.

Other loss contingenciesWe have a self-insured retention against product liability claims with insurance coverage over and
above the retention. There are various other claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, investigations and pending actions involving various allegations against us. Product liability claims are routinely reviewed by our insurance carrier and
management routinely reviews all claims for purposes of establishing ultimate loss estimates. In addition, management must determine the estimated liability for claims incurred, but not reported. Such estimates and any subsequent changes in
estimates may result in adjustments to our operating results in the future.

Revenue RecognitionThe Company sells product through four
principle channels: (1) direct to healthcare institutions, referred to as direct channel accounts, (2) through stocking distributors and healthcare dealers, (3) indirectly through insurance companies and (4) directly to dental
practices and dental laboratories. Sales through the direct and distributor/dealer channels account for a majority of net sales. Through these channels, inventory is generally consigned to sales agents or customers so that products are available
when needed for surgical procedures. Revenue is not recognized upon the placement of inventory into consignment as we retain title and maintain the inventory on our balance sheet; however, it is recognized upon implantation and receipt of proper
purchase order and/or purchase requisition documentation. Pricing for products is generally predetermined by contracts with customers, agents acting on behalf of customer groups or by government regulatory bodies, depending on the market. Price
discounts under group purchasing contracts are generally linked to volume of implant purchases by customer healthcare institutions within a specified group. At negotiated thresholds within a contract buying period, price discounts may increase. At
certain locations the Company records a contractual allowance that is offset against revenue for each sale to a non-contracted payor so that revenue is recorded at the estimated determinable price at the time of the sale. Revenue is recognized on
sales to

stocking distributors, healthcare dealers, dental practices and dental laboratories when title to product passes to them, generally upon shipment. Certain
subsidiaries allow customers to return product in the event that we terminate the relationship. Under those circumstances, we record an estimated sales return in the period in which constructive notice of termination is given to a distributor.
Product returns were not significant for the periods June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007, July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, and the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006.

AdvertisingAdvertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $0.6 million,
$11.5 million, $10.1 million and $15 million, for the period June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007, for the period July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, and for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Research and DevelopmentResearch and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. In-process research and development (IPRD) is recognized
in business combinations or asset acquisitions for the portion of the purchase price allocated to the appraised value of in-process technologies, defined as those technologies relating to products that have not received approval of the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration and have no alternative future use, consistent with SFAS 2, Accounting for Research and Development Costs, and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation 4, Applicability of SFAS 2 to Business Combinations.

Income TaxesThe Company records income tax estimates in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes; however, there are
inherent risks that could create uncertainties related to the estimates. The Company adjusts estimates based on normal operating circumstances and conclusions related to tax audits. The Company does not believe any audit finding could materially
affect its financial position; however, there could be a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and cash flows of a given period.

Effective June 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 addresses the determination of
whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the tax benefits from an uncertain tax position may be recognized only if it is more likely than not that the tax
position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim
periods and requires increased disclosures. FIN 48 requires significant judgment in determining what constitutes an individual tax position as well as assessing the outcome of each tax position.

Managements Estimates and AssumptionsIn preparing the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, management must often make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting
period. Some of those judgments can be subjective and complex. Consequently, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Change in Accounting
PrincipleAs of the Merger date, the Company eliminated the one-month lag in reporting for certain subsidiaries in Europe and International. The elimination of the one-month lag is considered a change in accounting principle adopted in
conjunction with the Merger and was applied prospectively. The effect of the elimination is not considered material to the consolidated financial statements as of May 31, 2008, and for the period from July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS
141RIn December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 141R (revised 2007), Business Combinations. SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a business
combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date at fair value. SFAS

Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations, Continued.



141R determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not
permitted.

SFAS 157In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements
and accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning June 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 157-2,
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which defers the effective date of Statement 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, which for us is our fiscal 2010. The
Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact to be immaterial to the consolidated financial
statements.

SFAS 159In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, Establishing the Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Liabilities, to permit all entities to choose to elect to measure eligible financial instruments at fair value. SFAS 159 applies to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted for an entity that has
also elected to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. An entity is prohibited from retrospectively applying SFAS 159, unless it chooses early adoption. On June 1, 2008 the Company will adopt SFAS 159 and expect the impact to be immaterial to the
consolidated financial statements.

SFAS 160In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB 51. SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards that require noncontrolling interests to be reported as a component of equity, changes in a parents ownership interest while the
parent retains its controlling interest be accounted for as equity transactions, and any retained noncontrolling equity investment upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at fair value. This Statement is effective for fiscal
years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements.

SFAS 161In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activitiesan Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. This statement requires entities that utilize derivative instruments to provide qualitative disclosures about their objectives and strategies for using such instruments, as
well as any details of credit-risk-related contingent features contained within derivatives. It also requires entities to disclose additional information about the amounts and location of derivatives located within the financial statements, how the
provisions of SFAS No. 133 have been applied and the impact that hedges have on an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This statement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 07-3In June 2007, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF-07-3 Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use
in Future Research and Development Activities. The EITF provides guidance for entities that may make nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used in future research and development activities and whether the advance
payment should be expensed when the advance payment is made or when the research and development activity has been performed. EITF 07-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. On
June 1, 2008 the Company will adopt EITF 07-3 and expect the impact to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.

Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations, Continued.



In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF 07-1, Accounting for Collaborative Agreements (EITF
07-1). EITF 07-1 provides guidance regarding financial statement presentation and disclosure of collaborative arrangements, as defined, which includes arrangements the Company has entered into regarding development and commercialization of
products. EITF 07-1 is effective for the Company as of April 1, 2009. The Company has not yet completed its evaluation of EITF 07-1, but does not currently believe that adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.

Note 3Inventories.

Inventories are
stated at lower of cost or market, with cost determined under the first-in, first-out method. The Company reviews inventory on hand and writes down excess and slow-moving inventory based on an assessment of future demand and historical experience.
Inventories consisted of the following:

Note 4Property, Plant and Equipment.

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to 30 years. Related maintenance and repairs
are expensed as incurred. In accordance with SFAS 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company reviews property, plant and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows relating to the asset are less than its carrying amount, with the amount of the loss equal to the excess of
carrying cost of the asset over fair value. Depreciation on instruments is included within cost of sales. Property, plant and equipment consisted of the following:

The Company had auction-rate securities (ARS) which were originally recorded in cash and cash equivalents at
May 31, 2007 and 2006 and were reclassified to the appropriate short-term and long-term investment category. These reclassifications also impacted net proceeds (purchases) from the sale and purchase of investments within the investing section
of the consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006.

The net proceeds (purchases) from sales (purchases) of
available-for-sale securities were $84.7 million, $42.8 million, $(64.7) million, and $(12.8) million for the periods July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007, and years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. There were no sales of held-to-maturity securities for the periods June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007, July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, and years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006. The cost of marketable securities
sold is determined by the specific identification method. For

the periods July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008, June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007, and years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, net realized
gains and (losses) on sales of available-for-sale securities were $0.3 million, $0.1 million, $2.4 million and $0.3 million. The Companys investment securities at May 31, 2008 include $0.7 million of certificates of deposit, $34.3 million
of debt securities, and $5.8 million of mortgage-backed securities, all maturing past one year, and $0.8 million of equity securities.

As of May 31,
2008, the Company held ARSs of $30.8 million. They are AAA rated securities with long-term nominal maturities secured by student loans, which are guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Each of these securities was subject to auction processes for which
there were insufficient bidders on the scheduled rollover dates. The Company will not be able to liquidate any of its ARSs until a future auction is successful, a buyer is found outside of the auction process (a secondary market develops) or the
notes are redeemed. These ARSs have been classified as long-term available-for-sale securities as of May 31, 2008 because of the inability to predict when the market will stabilize. A significant portion of these ARSs are held by the
Companys captive insurance company as part of their required capital. The securities continue to earn and be paid interest at the maximum contractual rate.

The Company has evaluated these securities for temporary or other-than-temporary impairment at May 31, 2008. In doing so, the Company has considered a variety of factors, including intent, liquidity factors, ability to generate
alternative cash, other broker pricing, and internally-generated fair value analysis. Our conclusion is that the securities are temporarily impaired as of May 31, 2008 therefore a temporary impairment charge was taken to other comprehensive
income in the amount of $3.2 million at May 31, 2008 leaving a balance of $30.8 million of ARS at May 31, 2008.

The Company reviews its
impairments in accordance with SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5, Miscellaneous Accounting and Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position,
SFAS 115-1 and 124-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments, to determine if the impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. The Company reviews several
factors to determine whether the losses are other-than-temporary, including but not limited to (1) the length of time each security was in an unrealized loss position, (2) the extent to which fair value was less than cost, (3) the
financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer or insurer and, (4) the Companys intent and ability to hold each security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

Investment income (included in other income, net) consists of the following:

Note 6Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.



The Company follows SFAS 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Accordingly, goodwill, indefinite, and
finite lived intangible assets are not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. The balance of goodwill as of May 31, 2008 and May 31, 2007 was $5,422.8 million and $448.4
million, respectively. The Company uses an accelerated method for amortizing customer relationship intangibles as the value for those relationships is greater at the beginning of their life.

The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill:

Biomet, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Note 7Debt.



Bank BorrowingIn connection with the Merger, the Company entered into a credit agreement dated
July 11, 2007 for a $6,165.0 million senior secured term loan facility, or the Tender Facility, maturing on June 6, 2008, and pursuant to which Purchaser borrowed $4,181.0 million to finance a portion of the Offer and pay related fees and
expenses.

The Company refinanced all amounts borrowed under the Tender Facility at the closing of the Merger on September 25, 2007 (the Closing
Date). On the Closing Date, the Company refinanced the Tender Facility with senior secured credit facilities (which included, term loan facilities, a cash flow revolving facility and an asset based revolving credit facility), senior notes,
senior subordinated notes and unsecured bridge facilities. The senior secured cash flow facility and all of the notes are guaranteed by the Company subject to certain exceptions, and each of its existing and future wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries. The senior secured asset-based facility is guaranteed by the Company and secured, subject to certain exceptions by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Companys assets and the assets of subsidiary
borrowers that consist of all accounts receivable, inventory, cash, deposit accounts and certain related intangible assets. The facilities and notes bear interest at the rates set forth below. Interest is payable in cash, except with respect to the
Companys ability to elect to pay PIK (Payment-in-kind) interest, rather than cash interest, on the senior toggle notes through October 15, 2012 for any interest period other than the initial interest period. The terms and book value of
each instrument at May 31, 2008 are:

A portion of the debt above is based on Libor and EuriBor rates which fluctuate regularly. As of May 31, 2008
the 3-month Libor and EuriBor were 2.68% and 4.86%, respectively. The term loan facilities require quarterly principal payments equal to one quarter percent of the original principal balance (equal payments each quarter) which commenced on the
last business day of December 2007, and continue on the last business day of each calendar year quarter with the remaining outstanding principal due on the maturity date. On March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company made required
payments to both term loan facilities, $5.9 million for the U.S. denominated facility and $3.2 million for the Euro denominated facility. The cash flow and asset-based revolvers and the notes do not have terms for mandatory principal pay downs. To
calculate the U.S. dollar equivalent for disclosure purposes, we used a currency conversion rate of 1 Euro to $1.5566, which represents the currency exchange rate from Euros to U.S. dollars on May 31, 2008 as published in The Wall Street
Journal.

Note 8Retirement and Pension Plans.

The Company has a defined contribution profit sharing plan which covers substantially all of the Team Members within the continental U.S. and allows participants to make contributions by salary reduction pursuant to
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company currently matches up to 75% of the Team Members contribution up to a maximum of 5% of the Team Members compensation. The amounts expensed under this profit sharing plan for
the periods June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007 and July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008 and for the years ended May 31, 2007, and 2006 were $0.9 million, $8.1 million, $4.9 million and $6.3 million, respectively.

The Company has an Employee Stock Bonus Plan for eligible Team Members of the Company and certain subsidiaries under which participants may elect to contribute up to 10%
of their annual compensation and the Company may make discretionary contributions on behalf of participants in the form of cash or stock. The Company has historically contributed to the plan up to 3% of an eligible Team Members compensation in
the form of stock. The amounts expensed under this plan for the years ended May 31, 2007, and 2006 were $5.8 million and $6.6 million, respectively. Amount expensed under the plan from June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007 were nominal.
Subsequent to the merger, the Company makes cash contributions to the plan rather than contributing stock. On March 31, 2007, the Company merged this plan into the existing 401(k) plan. This did not affect the funding of this plan.

The Company sponsors various retirement and pension plans, including defined benefit plans for some of its foreign operations. Many foreign employees are
covered by government sponsored programs for which the direct cost to the Company is not significant. Retirement plan benefits are primarily based on the employees compensation during the last several years before retirement and the number of
years of service. Some foreign subsidiaries have plans under which funds are deposited with trustees, annuities are purchased under group contracts or reserves are provided. The Company used May 31, 2008 for fiscal 2008 and April 30, 2007
for fiscal 2007 as the measurement date.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other
Postretirement Plansan amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R, which requires an employer to fully recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of its pension and other postretirement benefit plans as an asset or
liability in its financial statements. In addition, the Company is required to recognize as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) the actuarial gains or losses and the prior service costs and credits that arise during the period but are
not immediately recognized as components of net periodic benefit costs. The Company adopted SFAS 158 effective May 31, 2007. The incremental effect of applying SFAS No. 158 was a $16.6 million reduction in shareholders equity, net of
deferred taxes.

The projected future benefit payments from the Companys defined benefit retirement plans are $3.1
million2009, $3.2 million2010, $3.3 million2011, $3.5 million2012, $3.6 million2013 and $20.4 million20142018. The Company expects to pay $7.1 million into the plans during fiscal year 2009. In certain
countries, the funding of pension plans is not a common practice. Consequently, the Company has several pension plans which are not funded.

The
Companys retirement plan asset allocation at May 31, 2008 was 47% to equity securities, 45% to debt securities, 7% to real estate, and 1% to other. The Companys retirement plan asset allocation at April 30, 2007 was 41% to
equity securities, 41% to debt securities, 8% to real estate, and 10% to other.

Strategic asset allocations are determined by country, based on the nature
of the liabilities and considering demographic composition of the plan participants (average age, years of service and active versus retiree status). The Companys plans are considered non-mature plans and the long-term strategic asset
allocations are consistent with these types of plans. Emphasis is placed on diversifying on a broad basis combined with currency matching the fixed income assets.

Note 9Share-based Compensation and Stock Plans.

The Company adopted SFAS 123(R),Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123R) to record
share based payment expense on June 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. SFAS 123(R) requires the fair value of all share-based payments to employees, including stock options, to be expensed based on their fair value over the required
award service period. The Companys share-based payments consist of stock options. For the Companys non-employee distributors, share-based expense is recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force No. 96-18, Accounting for
Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquisition, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services. Prior to the Merger, the Companys Board of Directors modified certain stock options to change the
exercise price to the fair market value on the date it was granted by adding a cash component paid in January 2008 for the difference from the original grant price to the amended grant price of $46.00 per share (related to predecessor options). In
addition, on July 11, 2007, the Predecessors Companys Board of Directors cancelled all outstanding stock options and paid the difference between the amended grant price and $46.00 per share (the offering price) in cash in
conjunction with the Merger (see Note 1). The total amount expensed related to Predecessor company grants was $112.8 million, with amounts recorded as cost of sales, selling, general, and administrative, and research and development in our results
of operations for the period June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007.

In November 2007, Parent authorized the issuance of approximately 37.5 million nonqualified stock options to
key employees, directors, service providers, and consultants of Parent and its affiliates under the 2007 LVB Plan. Grants are consistent with the commitment to recognize and reward the recipients and to align their interests with its
stakeholders. Stock options is granted with an exercise price equal to 100% of fair value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant and have 10-year terms. Vesting of these stock options are split into 3 categories: 1) Time Based
Options: 50% of option grants generally vest ratably over 5 years, 2) Performance Based Options: 25% of stock option grants generally vest over 5 years, contingent upon the Company achieving certain EBITDA targets in each of those years, and 3)
Accreting Exercise Price Options: 25% of stock options grants have exercise prices that will increase by 10% each year, and generally vest ratably over 5 years. The Company uses an attribution method to recognize compensation expense for stock
options over the applicable vesting period.

The weighted average fair value of options granted during the period July 12, 2007 to May 31, 2008
and May 31, 2007 was $3.74 and $11.37, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of each option primarily using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatilities for fiscal 2008 grants are generally based on
historical volatility of our competitors, stock. For stock options granted during the year ended May 31, 2007, expected volatility was derived based on historical volatility of the Companys stock. The fiscal 2008 risk-free rate for
periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fiscal 2007 risk-free interest rate was determined using the implied yield currently available for zero-coupon U.S.
Government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options. The Company did not declare dividends in fiscal 2008 and does not expect to declare dividends going forward, but rather invest excess cash in future operations. In
fiscal 2007 a dividend yield is derived based on the historical dividend yield of the Companys stock. In fiscal 2007 the expected term of the stock option was derived from historical employee exercise behavior.

Prior to adopting SFAS 123(R), Biomet classified all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of
stock options as operating cash flows. SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from excess tax benefits (i.e., tax deductions realized for stock options exercised in excess of the tax benefit recognized on the related share-based payment
expense) to be classified as financing cash flows.

The predecessor Company had various stock option plans in place prior to the Merger date: the 1992
Employee and Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan; the 1992 Distributor Stock Option Plan: the Biomet, Inc. 1998 Qualified and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, and the Biomet, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. At May 31, 2007, the only plans
with shares available for grant were the Biomet, Inc. 1998 Qualified and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and the Biomet, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan.

Note 9Share-based Compensation and Stock Plans, Continued.



Under the stock option plans described above, options could be granted to key employees, non-employee directors and
distributors, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, and generally became exercisable in annual or biannual increments beginning one or two years after the date of grant in the case of employee options and in annual increments beginning at
the date of grant for distributor options. In the case of options granted to an employee of the Company who was a 10% or more shareholder, the option price was an amount per share not less than 110% of the fair market value per share on the date of
granting the option, as determined by the Compensation Committee. No options had been granted to employees who were 10% or more shareholders. The term of each option granted expired within the period prescribed by the Compensation Committee, but was
not more than five years from the date the option was granted if the optionee was a 10% or more shareholder, and not more than ten years for all other optionees. All rights under the options automatically terminated upon the optionees
separation from service with the Company, unless such separation results from retirement, disability or death. For the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, the amount of compensation expense applicable to options granted to distributors was not
material to the consolidated financial statements. On the Merger date, all options granted under the plans described above were cancelled (See Note 1 above) and such plans no longer exist.

We also expect to grant LVB Options to our distributors, which are expected to be eligible to vest based on the achievement of specified sales targets. In 2008, the
Board of Parent adopted an addendum to the 2007 LVB Plan, which provides for the grant of leveraged equity awards in Parent under the 2007 LVB Plan (the LVB Leveraged Awards, and together with the LVB Options, the LVB Awards)
to certain of our European employees. LVB Leveraged Awards permit participants to purchase shares of LVB common stock using the proceeds of non recourse loans from Parent, which shares remain subject to forfeiture and other restrictions prior to the
participants repayment of the loan.

Upon termination of a participants employment, the 2007 LVB Plan provides that any unvested portion of a
participants LVB Award will be forfeited, and that the vested portion of his or her LVB Award will expire on the earlier of (1) the date participants employment is terminated for cause, (2) 30 days following the date the participant
resigns without good reason, (3) 90 days after the date the participants employment is terminated either by us for any reason other than cause, death or disability or by the participant with good reason, (4) one year after the date the
participants employment is terminated by reason of death or disability or (5) the tenth anniversary of the grant date of the LVB Award.

Prior to
receiving shares of LVB common stock (whether pursuant to the exercise of LVB Options, purchased pursuant to an LVB Leveraged Award or otherwise), participants must execute a Management Stockholders Agreement , which provides that the shares
are subject to certain transfer restrictions, put and call rights, and tag along and drag along rights (and, with respect to certain senior members of management, limited re offer registration and preemptive rights).

Note 10Income Taxes (benefit), Continued.



The Companys deferred tax assets include federal, state, and foreign net operating loss carryforwards. The
federal net operating loss carryforwards available are $97.4 million, which expire starting in 2028. The state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards are from various jurisdictions with various carryforward periods. As of May 31, 2008,
the Company has a $6.0 million valuation allowance for a portion of its net deferred tax assets related to foreign net operating losses that management believes, more likely than not, will not be realized. All goodwill related to the merger is not
tax deductible.

A deferred tax asset has been established for the foreign tax credit carryforwards in the amount of $7.6 million as of May 31, 2008.
Federal foreign tax credits may be carried forward ten years. The Company believes that it is more like than not that it will be able to utilize the foreign tax credit carryforwards.

Deferred tax liabilities increased significantly from May 31, 2007 to May 31, 2008 due to the Merger. The intangibles, as well as the step-up in the fair value of the property, plant, and equipment for
accounting purposes is not written up for tax, resulting in a temporary difference.

The Company has not provided for deferred taxes on certain of its
excess of financial reporting over the tax basis of its investments in foreign subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to U.S.
income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. Determination of the amount of any unrecognized deferred income tax liability on these undistributed earnings is not
practical.

The Company has not recorded deferred taxes on its excess of financial reporting over the tax basis on certain of its investments in foreign
subsidiaries related to current period earnings that are not considered to be indefinitely reinvested. The Company believes that there will not be a significant additional cost associated with the future repatriation of such foreign earnings.

Effective June 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of tax contingencies and the tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. Upon adoption of FIN 48, the Company had a liability of $41.2 million, $25.2 million of which would impact the
Companys effective tax rate, if recognized. The cumulative effect of the adoption of FIN 48 was recorded as a $9.2 million reduction to the beginning of the year retained earnings.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Tax expense for the year ending May 31, 2008 includes $1.4 million of interest and
penalties. Interest and penalties of $4.8 million have been accrued at May 31, 2008. Interest and penalties for the period ended June 1, 2007 to July 11, 2007 was not material.

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at May 31, 2008 was $50.9 million, $38.7 million of which would impact the Companys effective tax rate, if recognized. The Company does not anticipate a material
change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, certain of its subsidiaries file income tax returns in
the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examinations by taxing authorities throughout the world, including major jurisdictions such as Australia, Canada,
France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States. The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing the predecessor Companys federal tax returns for the years ended May 31, 2005 and 2006, and certain
acquired entities for the years ended May 31, 2004 and 2005. In addition, certain state and foreign tax returns are under examination by various regulatory authorities. The statute of limitations for income tax examinations by the Internal
Revenue Service has expired for the fiscal years prior to and including the year ended May 31, 2002. The Company regularly reviews issues that are raised from ongoing examinations and open tax years to evaluate the adequacy of its liabilities.
As the various taxing authorities continue with their audit/examination programs, the Company will adjust its reserves accordingly to reflect these settlements.

U.S Department of Justice Consulting Agreement Investigation

On September 27, 2007, the Company entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement with the U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of New Jersey. The agreement
concludes the governments investigation into whether consulting agreements between the largest orthopedic manufacturers and orthopedic surgeons who use joint reconstruction and replacement products may have violated the federal Anti-Kickback
Statute.

Through the agreement, the U.S. Attorneys Office agreed not to prosecute the Company in connection with this matter, provided that the
Company satisfies its obligations under the agreement over the next 18 months. The agreement calls for the appointment of an independent monitor to review the Companys compliance with the agreement, particularly in relation to its consulting
agreements.

As part of the resolution of this matter, the Company also entered into a Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Office of the Inspector
General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

U.S. Department of Justice EBI Products Investigation and Related Litigation

In May 2007, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice through the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of West Virginia
requesting documents generally relating to a certain number of products manufactured, marketed and sold by the Companys EBI subsidiary for the period from January 1999 through the date of this filing. In June 2007, the Company received a
second administrative subpoena from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of West Virginia requesting documents relating to a specific physicians assistant. The Company understands that the Department of Justice is conducting a civil
investigation of EBIs sales and marketing practices relating to certain spinal products. The Company is fully cooperating with the request of the Department of Justice. The Company can make no assurances as to the time or resources that will
be needed to devote to this inquiry or its final outcome.

U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust and Related Litigation

In June 2006, the Company received a federal grand jury subpoena issued at the request of the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, requesting documents for the
period from January 2001 through June 2006 regarding possible violations of federal criminal law, including possible violations of the antitrust laws, relating to the manufacture and sale of orthopedic implant devices. The Company is aware of
similar subpoenas directed to other companies in the orthopedic industry. The Company has cooperated and intends to continue to fully cooperate with the Department of Justice investigation. The result of this investigation may not be known for
several years. However, the scope of the June 2006 subpoena was narrowed to a specific geographic region and specific product lines. It is the belief that the other orthopedic companies that received similar subpoenas have received similar guidance.
It is the belief that the investigation was prompted by an unsolicited e-mail sent by a representative of one of its competitors that proposed a common pricing strategy in connection with a particular hospital. This e-mail was received by an
independent sales representative of an independent distributor for Biomet Orthopedics, but it was never transmitted to us. Biomet, Inc., the independent distributor, nor the independent sales representative took any action in response to the e-mail,
and the company believe that no anticompetitive activity took place as a result of it. The Company requires compliance by its employees and its independent distributors with its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and with applicable antitrust laws.
On March 26, 2008, The company received a letter from a representative of the Department of Justice, Antitrust Division I advising that the Department has closed its grand jury investigation of antitrust and related offenses in the orthopedic
implants industry.

The Company has received complaints in class action lawsuits alleging violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act that raise the same
antitrust issues as the U.S. Department of Justice investigation described above. The

complaints also named various other companies in the orthopedic industry as defendants. These cases were consolidated under the caption In Re Orthopedic
Implant Device Antitrust Litigation, Case No. 1:07-ml-9831-JDT-WTL with the United States District Court Southern District Indianapolis, Indiana Division, and on October 18, 2007 were voluntarily dismissed without prejudice.

Litigation Relating to Past Stock Option Grant Practices

On September 21, 2006, two shareholder derivative complaints were filed against certain of the Companys current and former officers and directors in Kosciusko Superior Court I in Kosciusko County, in the
State of Indiana. The complaints, captioned Long v. Hann, et al. , and Thorson v. Hann, et al. , alleged violations of state law relating to the issuance of certain stock option awards by Biomet dating back to 1996. Both complaints sought
unspecified money damages as well as other equitable and injunctive relief. These two cases were consolidated under the caption In re Biomet, Inc. Derivative Litigation , and on January 19, 2007, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that made
additional allegations based on the Companys December 18, 2006 disclosures related to stock option awards, including allegations that the defendants sought to sell the Company in order to escape liability for their conduct, and that they
did so at a devalued price, thus further breaching their fiduciary duties to shareholders. On February 16, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs amended complaint. On October 11, 2007, after approval of the
Companys sale by its shareholders, the parties filed supplemental briefs on the issue of whether plaintiffs had standing to sue. On February 5, 2008, the court dismissed the case for lack of standing, and plaintiffs motion for leave
to amend was denied. Plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal of the case to the Indiana Court of Appeals.

On December 11, 2006, a
third shareholder derivative complaint captioned International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 98 Pension Fund v. Hann, et al. , No. 06 CV 14312, was filed in federal court in the Southern District of New York. The IBEW case makes
allegations and claims similar to those made in the Indiana litigation, in addition to purporting to state three derivative claims for violations of the federal securities laws. On February 15, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the
plaintiffs complaint. On April 11, 2007, plaintiffs filed a motion for partial summary judgment claiming that the disclosures in the Companys April 2, 2007 Form 8-K filing and press release regarding the Companys historical
stock options granting practices constitute admissions sufficient to establish defendants liability on certain of plaintiffs claims. On October 11, 2007, after approval of the Companys sale by its shareholders, the parties
filed supplemental briefs on the issue of whether plaintiff had standing to sue. On June 10, 2008, the motion to dismiss was granted without leave to amend due to plaintiffs lack of standing. Plaintiffs have not filed an appeal. See
Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Litigation Relating to the
Merger

On December 20, 2006, a purported class-action lawsuit captioned Long, et al. v. Hann, et al., was filed in Indiana State court in the
County of Kosciusko. The lawsuit names as defendants each member of the Companys Board of Directors at the time, Dane Miller, Ph.D., and Blackstone Capital Partners V L.P., KKR 2006 Fund L.P., Goldman Sachs Investments Ltd. and TPG Partners V,
L.P. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached, or aided and abetted the breach of, fiduciary duties owed to the Companys shareholders by its directors in connection with the Companys entry into the Merger
Agreement. Among the purported fiduciary breaches alleged in the complaint is that the Companys director defendants knew that the only way they could escape liability for their stock option granting improprieties would be to sell the
Company, thus eliminating their liability. The complaint seeks, among other relief, class certification of the lawsuit, a declaration that the Merger Agreement was entered into in breach of the fiduciary duties of the defendants, an injunction
preventing the defendants from proceeding with the Merger unless and until the defendants implement

procedures to obtain the highest possible sale price, an order directing the defendants to exercise their fiduciary duties to obtain a transaction which is
in the best interests of the Companys shareholders until the process for a sale of Biomet is completed and the highest price is obtained, an order directing the defendants to exercise their fiduciary duty to disclose all material information
in their possession concerning the Merger prior to the shareholder vote, including fiscal 2007 second quarter financial results, imposition of a constructive trust upon any benefits improperly received by the defendants, an award of attorneys
fees and expenses, and such other relief as the court might find just and proper. On March 29 and 30, 2007, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the plaintiffs complaint, and these motions are currently pending before the court.

On January 2, 2007, a purported class action lawsuit captioned Gervasio v. Biomet, Inc., et al., was filed in the Supreme Court for the State of New
York, New York County. A virtually identical action was filed on January 9, 2007, captioned Corry v. Biomet, Inc., et al., in the same court. Both of these lawsuits named as defendants Biomet, Inc., each member of the Companys Board of
Directors at the time, Dane Miller, Ph.D., The Blackstone Group L.P., Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., Goldman Sachs Capital Partners and Texas Pacific Group. The lawsuits made essentially the same claims and sought the same relief as in the
Long action described above. On January 29, 2007, defendants filed a joint motion to dismiss Gervasio. On February 14, 2007, the plaintiff in Corry voluntarily discontinued his lawsuit and informed defendants that he intended to intervene
in Gervasio. On March 26, 2007, the court granted defendants motion to dismiss Gervasio.

Pursuant to Indiana law and provisions of the
Companys articles of incorporation, the Company is advancing reasonable expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred by the Companys current and former directors and officers in defending these lawsuits, with the exception of Dane
Miller, Ph.D., whose status as a defendant does not arise from his status as a former director or officer.

Each of Biomet and the other defendants denies
all of the allegations in these lawsuits, including any allegation that its current disclosures with regard to the pending Merger are false, misleading or incomplete in any way. Nevertheless, without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, the
Company and other defendants in these cases have agreed in principle to settle them in order to avoid the potential cost and distraction of continued litigation and, at the time, to eliminate any risk of any delay to the closing of the Merger posed
by these lawsuits.

On May 31, 2007, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding regarding the settlement of class action lawsuits that
were filed on behalf of the Companys shareholders following the announcement of the proposed Merger. The parties to the memorandum of understanding executed a definitive settlement agreement dated as of April 17, 2008. This settlement is
subject to court approval. On April 25, 2008, the parties moved the Indiana State court in the County of Kosciusko for approval of the settlement. If the settlement becomes effective the lawsuits will be dismissed with prejudice.

Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to make available meaningful additional information, including financial information, to its shareholders.
Such additional information was contained in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 31, 2007. In addition, the Sponsors have agreed to cause Biomet (or the Companys Successors) to pay the legal fees and expenses of plaintiffs
counsel, in an amount of $0.6 million in the aggregate, subject to approval by the court and other conditions. The settlement was entered into on April 17, 2008, and preliminary approval was granted by the court on May 12, 2008. On
August 6, 2008, the Court gave final approval to the settlement and dismissed the litigation with prejudice.

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
Informal Investigation

On September 25, 2007, the Company received a letter from the SEC informing the Company that it is conducting an
informal investigation regarding possible violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in the

sale of medical devices in certain foreign countries by companies in the medical devices industry. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prohibits U.S. companies
and their officers, directors, employees, shareholders acting on their behalf and agents from offering, promising, authorizing or making payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business abroad or otherwise obtaining
favorable treatment and this law requires companies to maintain records which fairly and accurately reflect transactions and to maintain internal accounting controls. In many countries, hospitals and clinics are government-owned and healthcare
professionals employed by such hospitals and clinics, with whom the Company regularly interacts, may meet the definition of a foreign official for purposes of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. If the Company is found to have violated the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act, the Company may face sanctions including fines, criminal penalties, disgorgement of profits and suspension or debarment of the Companys ability to contract with government agencies or receive export licenses. On
November 9, 2007, the Company received a letter from the Department of Justice requesting any information provided to the SEC be provided to the Department of Justice on a voluntary basis. The Company intends to fully cooperate with both
requests and the Company is in the process of conducting its own review relating to these matters in certain countries in which the Company and its distributors conduct business. As of August 28, 2008, the SEC and the DOJ have not taken, or
advised that they intend to take, any specific action against the Company or any individuals currently or formerly affiliated with the Company in connection with their investigations.

Massachusetts AG

The Company received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) issued by the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General (Massachusetts AG) on or about November 19, 2007. The CID requested documents for the period November 1, 2003 to the present concerning certain physicians and
provider groups, including, among other things, documents concerning any contracts or agreements with, and any payments made to, those physicians or provider groups. The Company has produced documents in response to the CID, and intends to
continue to cooperate with the Massachusetts AG. It is not possible at this time to predict the likely outcome of this inquiry or its financial impact should the outcome be adverse to the Company.

Other Matters

In February 2006, SDGI Holdings, Inc. and Medtronic Sofamor Danek, Inc. (collectively referred to herein as Medtronic) brought an action against EBI and the Company alleging infringement of seven patents. Specifically, Medtronic
alleges that the patents are infringed by certain components of the Companys Vuelock® Anterior Cervical Plate System, as well as instruments and surgical implantation methods
associated with the Companys Array® Spinal System. In Fall 2007, Medtronic included similar instruments used with EBIs Biomet® Omega21, Polaris, and Synergy
spinal fixation systems as accused products. Medtronics complaint does not seek a specific amount of damages, but does seek to enjoin the Company from manufacturing, selling and/or distributing the allegedly infringing products. The Company
has filed a counterclaim seeking a finding of non-infringement of the patents at issue and a finding that certain of the patents are invalid and unenforceable. Discovery on the litigation continues. The Company is vigorously defending this matter
and intends to continue to do so.

The Company and Biomet Orthopedics initiated legal proceedings against Zimmer US, Inc., or Zimmer, certain of the
Companys former distributors and David Montgomery, the Companys former employee who currently works for Zimmer. The thirteen count lawsuit originally filed in Marion County, Indiana and refiled in Hamilton County, Indiana alleges, among
other things, that Zimmer and Mr. Montgomery attempted to create an unfair market advantage by engaging in a campaign to misappropriate the Companys confidential information, to

interfere with the Companys contractual relations with distributors and to attempt to buy the assets of most of the Companys distributors
(including the Companys surgical instruments) throughout the United States. Further, the lawsuit alleges that the limited number of distributors who accepted Zimmers offer are in violation of their contractual obligations to Biomet.
Although nearly all of the Companys distributors rejected Zimmers offers and have remained with Biomet, and although no amount of money damages can completely compensate Biomet for the losses the Company has sustained as a result of
defendants conduct, the Company is nonetheless seeking to recover compensatory damages that are attributable to financial and other resources spent on signing new agreements with the Companys sales force. To the extent the Company
sustained damages as a result of the Companys former distributors agreeing to purportedly sell their assets to Zimmer, the Company is seeking to recover lost profits and other damages as well. In addition, the Company is seeking to recover
punitive damages from the defendants. On November 9, 2007, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Companys complaint. On March 27, 2008, the court denied the motion in its entirety.

In a related matter, the Company brought suit against a former distributor for Biomet Orthopedics who, in violation of his contractual and other obligations to Biomet
under agreements stretching back to 1994, sold the assets of his distributorship to Zimmer in an apparent effort to avoid his contractual obligations to the Company. The complaint, now pending in federal district court in Indiana, asserts five
causes of action that include breach of contract, unjust enrichment and statutory wrongs. Among other things, the complaint seeks injunctive relief and compensatory and punitive damages. On July 16, 2007, a temporary restraining order was
entered against this former distributor which subsequently lapsed ten days later. Prior to the filing of the suit described above, this former distributor sued one of his former employees who decided to continue to represent the Companys
products in the future as he has for nearly ten years. The suit brought against this employee by the Companys former distributor who sold his assets to Zimmer claims, among other things, that the former employee is violating his
non-competition agreement with the Companys former distributor by continuing to sell the same Biomet products the former employee sold while employed by the Companys former distributor. The suit also seeks, among other forms of relief,
an injunction and compensatory and punitive damages.

In late 2004 and early 2005, approximately 120 plaintiffs suedDr. John King in the Circuit
Court of Putnam County, West Virginia. Plaintiffs alleged that Dr. King was professionally negligent when he performed surgery on the plaintiffs at Putnam General Hospital in Putnam County, West Virginia between November 2002 and June 2003. In 38 of
these lawsuits, plaintiffs alleged that Dr. King had implanted a device manufactured by the Companys EBI subsidiary and EBI was named a party in those 38 lawsuits. Plaintiffs have dismissed or have agreed to dismiss their claims against EBI in
11 cases, leaving EBI as a party in 27 pending lawsuits, all of which relate to EBIs Ionic Spine Spacer System and its implanted bone stimulator devices, the SpF and OsteoGen. Plaintiffs allege that EBI entered into a joint venture and a civil
conspiracy with Dr. King and/or his physician assistant, David McNair. The plaintiffs also allege that EBI failed to warn that its products were not safe for their intended use, that EBI knew that Dr. King was not properly trained or was performing
surgeries inappropriately and claims based on strict liability, express and implied breach of warranty and negligent sale. Plaintiffs seek to recover lost income, medical expenses, future medical and life care expenses, damages relating to pain and
suffering and punitive and other damages. Dr. King is uninsured in 25 of these 27 cases and has filed bankruptcy.

In July 2007, a Putnam County jury found
that Putnam General Hospital had negligently credentialed Dr. King and that the hospitals conduct in credentialing Dr. King was motivated by fraud, ill will, wantonness, oppressiveness, or by reckless or gross negligence, which allowed the
plaintiffs to seek punitive damages against the hospital. In April, May and June of 2008, the hospital and its upstream affiliates and David McNair entered into a confidential settlement of all claims with all but one of the plaintiffs. EBI, Wright
Medical Corporation, Wright Medicals distributors employee, Robert Edwards, and Dr. King remain as defendants in the litigation.

Biomet, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Note 13Contingencies, Continued.



The Putnam County Circuit Court revised its case management order with respect to the remaining lawsuits on July 2,
2008 and scheduled a consolidated trial of six plaintiffs for June 1, 2009. The Company is vigorously defending these matters and intends to continue to do so.

There are various other claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, investigations and pending actions involving various allegations against the Company incident to the operation of its business, principally product liability and
intellectual property cases. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably to Biomet. The Company accrues for losses that are deemed to be probable and subject to
reasonable estimate. Based on the advice of the Companys counsel in these matters, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters and any liabilities in excess of amounts provided will not have a material adverse impact on the
Companys consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Note 14Related Parties.

Management Services Agreement

Upon completion of the Transactions, we
entered into a management services agreement with certain affiliates of the Sponsors, pursuant to which such affiliates of the Sponsors or their Successors, assigns, affiliates, officers, employees and/or representatives and third parties
(collectively, the Managers) provide management, advisory and consulting services to us. Pursuant to such agreement, the Managers will receive a transaction fee equal to 1% of total enterprise value of the Transactions for the services
rendered by such entities related to the Transactions upon entering into the agreement, and an annual monitoring fee equal to 1% of our annual Adjusted EBITDA as compensation for the services rendered and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Managers in connection with the agreement and the Transactions. We are required to pay the sponsors a fee on a quarterly basis. In total we paid each of the above sponsors $1.5 million for a total of $6.1 million during fiscal 2008.
As of May 31, 2008, the amount payable to the sponsors was $2.3 million. During the 2008 fiscal year we also entered into a consulting agreement with Capstone Consulting, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blackstone, LLC, to perform analysis related
to our operational improvement initiative. We paid Capstone Consulting $1.2 million throughout fiscal 2008. We may also pay certain subsequent fees to the Managers for advice rendered in connection with financing or refinancing (equity or debt),
acquisition, disposition, spin-off, split-off, dividend, recapitalization, initial underwritten public offering and change of control transactions involving us or any of our subsidiaries. The management services agreement includes customary
exculpation and indemnification provisions in favor of the Managers and their affiliates.

The Company currently holds interest rate swaps with Goldman
Sachs. As part of this relationship, we receive information from Goldman Sachs that allows us to run a regression on the swaps as part of our required effectiveness testing on a quarterly basis.

Capital Contributions

During the 2008 fiscal year, the Company
received a capital contribution from its parent company by trusts affiliated with Dane A. Miller and Mary Louise Miller during the fourth quarter in the amount of $120.0 million. The Company also received an additional capital contribution of $14.4
million from its parent company from the participation of management under the LVB Acquisition Inc., Management Stockholders Agreement.

|Item 9. | Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our audit committee approved the dismissal of Ernst & Young LLP (Ernst & Young) as our independent registered public
accounting firm on January 24, 2008.

The reports of Ernst & Young on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the
fiscal years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that the report on our consolidated
financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2006 was modified to indicate that we had restated previously issued financial statements as of May 31, 2006 and 2005 and for each of the three years in the period ended
May 31, 2006 to correct our accounting for certain share-based expense and related payroll taxes. During the period from June 1, 2005 through the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007, and through January 24, 2008, there were no
(1) disagreements with Ernst & Young on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Ernst & Youngs
satisfaction, would have caused Ernst & Young to make reference thereto in its report on the financial statements for such years, or (2) reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, except for the
material weakness reported in our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, which was filed with the SEC on May 29, 2007, which indicated that we had ineffective internal control as of May 31, 2006 over financial reporting with respect to the
granting, administration and accounting for stock options, namely, we did not maintain effective control over the completeness, valuation, presentation and disclosure of share-based expense.

Also on January 24, 2008, our audit committee appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Companys new independent registered public
accounting firm. We did not consult with Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matters described in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and Item 304(a)(2)(ii) of Regulation S-K prior to their appointment. The decision to change accountants was approved by
our Audit Committee and ratified by our Board of Directors.



|Item 9A. (T) | Controls and Procedures.
|------------ | ------------------------

(a) Evaluation of
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a- 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Act )) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance
that information required to be disclosed by the Company, including the Companys consolidated entities, in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the SECs rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer (the Principal Executive Officer ) and the Chief Financial Officer
(the Principal Financial Officer ), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Prior to the filing of this report, the Company completed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of
senior management, including the Companys Principal Executive Officer and its Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2008. Based
on this evaluation, Biomets Principal Executive Officer and its Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as a result of the material weakness in Biomets internal control over financial reporting discussed below, Biomets
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of May 31, 2008.

In light of this conclusion, the Company has applied
compensating procedures and processes as necessary to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting. Accordingly, management believes, based on its knowledge, that (i) this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report and (ii) the financial statements, and other
financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as at, and for, the periods presented in this report.

Management, along with Biomets Board of Directors, has implemented, or is in the process of implementing, remedial measures to address the material
weakness discussed below. Biomets management has



121



---

##### Table of Contents

concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report present fairly, in all material respects, Biomets financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.

(b) Managements Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting. Management of Biomet is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Biomets internal
control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Biomet; (2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of Biomet are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of Biomets assets that could have a material effect on the interim or annual
consolidated financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Biomets management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of Biomets internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2008. In making this assessment, management used the criteria
established in the report entitled Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO Report).

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment of Biomets internal control over financial reporting, Biomets
management has identified a material weakness in Biomets internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2008, primarily in credit and collections group within the BTBSs insurance pay business. This weakness relates to multiple
control deficiencies in the order-to-cash process in both the design and operation of controls.

Biomet is committed to eliminating its
material weakness noted above by improving its internal control over financial reporting at BTBS. Management, along with Biomets Board of Directors, has implemented, or is in the process of implementing, significant changes to BTBSs
internal control over financial reporting. First, Biomet is in the final stages of completing an agreement to outsource the collection and processing of its insurance pay accounts receivable at BTBS on an onshore and off-shore basis to an
organization that has a history of successful processing with companies similar to BTBSs insurance pay business. Second, Biomet has committed additional resources and qualified insurance pay management professionals to BTBS. Third, Biomet has
hired a new controller of the BTBS division and launched a recruiting effort to hire additional accountants and internal control and credit collections professionals at BTBS. Lastly, a project team has been assembled by executive management to
monitor and oversee the improvements in internal controls over financial reporting being implemented at BTBS. Because of the material weakness described above, management concluded that Biomet did not maintain effective internal control over
financial reporting as of May 31, 2008, based on the criteria established in the COSO Report. Until the system is considered to be functioning correctly, and additional resources and controls have been put in place, management believes that a
material weakness will continue to exist. Management is currently assessing how soon the material weakness may be remediated.

This annual
report does not include an attestation report of Biomets registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by



122

##### Table of Contents

Biomets registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit Biomet to provide only
managements report in this annual report.

(c) Changes in Internal Control. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008, there were
no changes in Biomets internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Biomets internal control over financial reporting. However, to begin addressing the material
weakness described above, subsequent to May 31, 2008 Biomets management has taken actions that are reasonably likely to materially affect Biomets internal control over financial reporting. These changes are described above under
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Biomets Board of Directors consists of ten

Dr. Miller and Jeffrey R. Binder to the Board of Directors in addition to the two directors appointed by each of the Sponsors. Because of these requirements, together with the Sponsors ownership of Biomets outstanding common shares
through Parent, Biomet does not currently have a policy or procedure with respect to shareholder nominees to the Board of Directors. Though not formally considered by the Board given that Biomets securities are not registered or traded on any
national securities exchange, based upon the listing standards of the NASDAQ National Market, the national securities exchange upon which Biomets common stock was listed prior to the Transactions, Biomet currently does not believe that any of
Messrs. Coslet, Dal Bello, Jones, McVeigh, Michelson, Saer, Sisitsky or Summe would be considered independent because of their relationships with the Sponsors, who own Biomets outstanding common shares through Parent, and that Messrs. Binder
and Miller would not be considered independent because of their relationships with Biomet. See Item 13, Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

Each of Messrs. Coslet, Dal Bello, Jones, McVeigh, Michelson, Saer, Sisitsky and Summe is a partner, member or employee of an entity affiliated with one of the investment funds that indirectly own all of the equity
interests in LVB Acquisition, LLC (LVB) and generally is entitled to be indemnified by such entity for his service on Biomets Board pursuant to such entities governing documents or other arrangements, in each case in

|Item 11. | Executive Compensation.
|-------- | -----------------------

Introduction

Throughout fiscal 2007 and the first four months of fiscal 2008, we were a public company, with our common stock traded on the NASDAQ National Market. As
such, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors was responsible for developing, implementing and administering our cash and equity compensation policies. As a result of the Transactions, however, many of our compensation arrangements that
had been in place during the 2007 fiscal year and the beginning of the 2008 fiscal year were discontinued in connection with the Transactions. In connection with the Transactions, each member of our Board of Directors (other than Mr. Binder,
our President and Chief Executive Officer) serving prior to the Transactions resigned from our Board of Directors and all committees thereof (including our Compensation Committee) and new members of the Board were appointed by our sole shareholder,
Parent, on behalf of the Sponsors.

Compensation and related matters during the 2008 fiscal year were reviewed and approved by (1) the
Compensation Committee of the Company with respect to periods prior to consummation of the Transactions and (2) the Compensation Committees of Holding, Parent and the Company with respect to periods after consummation of the Transactions, which
we refer to, collectively, as the Compensation Committee.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This section includes information regarding, among other things, the overall objectives of our compensation programs and each element of compensation that
we provided, in each case with respect to the 2008 fiscal year. The goal of this section is to provide a summary of our executive compensation practices and the decisions that we made during this period concerning the compensation package payable to
our executive officers, including the six executives in the Summary Compensation Table. Each of the six executives listed in the Summary Compensation Table is referred to herein as a named executive officer. This Compensation
Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the detailed tables and narrative descriptions under Executive Compensation Tables below.

Compensation Methodology

During the 2008 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee was responsible for administering the compensation and benefit programs for our team members, including named executive officers. The Compensation Committee
annually reviews and evaluates cash compensation and equity award recommendations along with the rationale for such recommendations, as well as summary information regarding the aggregate compensation, provided to our executive officers. The
Compensation Committee examines these recommendations in relation to our overall objectives. The President and Chief Executive Officer was not a member of the Compensation Committee during the 2008 fiscal year and did not participate in the
decisions as to his compensation package.

The most significant development in our executive compensation philosophy during the 2008 fiscal
year following the consummation of the Transactions has been a greater emphasis on correlating compensation to long-term equity growth. The Compensation Committee has provided significant equity investment opportunities in our Parent tied to
financial objectives through grants of options to purchase shares of Parent and has modified the structure of non-equity awards to provide greater incentives for management performance. The Compensation Committees decisions for the 2008 fiscal
year were made after considering compensation data of an informal peer group of other orthopedic manufacturing companies in our industry and privately owned portfolio companies of the Sponsors. However, the Compensation Committee did not engage in
formal benchmarking as part of this informal review in making compensation decisions. In addition, as more fully discussed below, our annual cash bonus program has been redesigned in an effort to more closely align awards to our and our
executives performance. The philosophy and target levels of each of the other compensation elements, including base salary, perquisites, health and welfare and retirement benefits during the 2008 fiscal year have largely continued to
correspond to the levels of such awards compared to our informal peer group for periods prior to the Transactions.

Executive Compensation Philosophy
and Objectives

Our executive compensation practices are affected by the highly competitive nature of the orthopedics industry and
the location of our executive offices in Warsaw, Indiana. The fact that a number of the leading orthopedic manufacturers in the world have significant operations in and around Warsaw, Indiana means that there are continuing opportunities for
experienced orthopedic executives who reside in this area. On the other hand, the fact that Warsaw, Indiana, is a small town in a predominantly rural area can present challenges to attracting executive talent from other industries and parts of the
country.

Our executive compensation policies and practices during the 2008 fiscal year reflected the compensation philosophies of our
founders and were designed to help achieve the superior performance of our executive officers and management team by accomplishing the following goals:



| |  |  | attracting, retaining and rewarding highly qualified and productive persons;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | relating compensation to both company and individual performance;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | establishing compensation levels that are internally equitable and externally competitive; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | encouraging an ownership interest and instilling a sense of pride in Biomet.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This compensation methodology was based upon one of our founding philosophies: equity incentives in the form of stock options are an excellent motivation
for all team members, including executive officers, and serve to align the interests of team members, management and our equity investors.

Based on these objectives, the compensation package of our executive officers during the 2008 fiscal year was intended to meet each of the following three criteria: (1) market competitive levels with companies of similar size and
performance to us, such as the companies discussed above as our informal peer group; (2) performance based, at risk pay that is based on both short and long-term goals; and (3) incentives that are structured to create alignment
between our equity investors and executives.

The Elements of Biomets Compensation Program

As a result of our compensation philosophies and objectives, the compensation package of our executive officers during the 2008 fiscal year consisted of
five primary elements: (1) base salary; (2) non-equity incentive plan awards; (3) stock options and leveraged share awards; (4) participation in employee benefit plans; and (5) deferred compensation elections.

Base Salary. Consistent with prior fiscal years, our practice during the 2008 fiscal year was to provide base salaries at rates that we believed
to be comparable with positions of executives in the orthopedics industry and other sponsor backed companies outside of the orthopedics industry, in each case of similar responsibility to our executives and other companies of similar size to us. The
Compensation Committee reviewed our performance, the executive officers performance, our future objectives and challenges and the current competitive environment and set the base salary for each executive officer at the beginning of the fiscal
year. We consider our 2008 base salaries to have been in line with our compensation objectives.

Non-equity Incentive Plan. Annual
cash incentive awards to our named executive officers for the 2008 fiscal year were paid under the terms of a non-equity incentive plan approved by our Compensation Committee following consummation of the Transactions. The principal objective sought
to be achieved by our non-equity incentive plan is to align awards with predetermined objectives and thereby improve performance in targeted areas. Payments under the plan are calculated based upon a percentage of an executives base salary,
which are targeted to be competitive with other orthopedic manufacturing companies in our industry and after considering annual cash incentive programs at privately owned portfolio companies of the Sponsors.

Potential payments under the non-equity incentive plan for the 2008 fiscal year could have ranged from 0% to 180% of the an executives base salary,
as a result of corporate, business unit and individual performance. Greater emphasis for Messrs. Binder, Florin, Kashuba and Richardson was placed on corporate performance, while a more significant factor for Messrs. Van Broeck and Scheiss was
business unit performance. Corporate and business unit targets for the 2008 fiscal year were EBITDA, net sales and operational objectives (including manufacturing footprint optimization and implementation of Six Sigma, lean manufacturing, and
procurement and offshoring initiatives). Individual performance of named executive officers was determined after considering each executives leadership ability and contributions to our business during the 2008 fiscal year. With respect to
named executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee also considered the Chief Executive Officers assessment of their individual performance in determining an individual named executive officers
performance.

The chart below includes information about 2008 fiscal year opportunities and actual payout.

##### Table of Contents

Since corporate and business unit target performance goals are generally set consistent with our
confidential operating plan for the fiscal year, actual performance above our confidential operating plan would generally result in incentive payments above the target level. Conversely, performance below our confidential operating plan would
generally result in incentive payments below the target level. The Compensation Committee and management believe that the metrics for the non-equity incentive plan align well with our objective of relating compensation to both company and individual
performance. The specific corporate and business unit targets and ranges of acceptable performance set under the non-equity incentive plan are not disclosed because we believe disclosure of this information would cause competitive harm. These
targets and ranges of acceptable performance are based on our confidential operating plan for the 2008 fiscal year and, therefore, achievement is substantially uncertain at the time they are set. The targets are intended to be realistic and
reasonable, but challenging, in order to drive sustainable growth and individual performance.

Stock Options and Leveraged Share
Awards. In 2007, the Board of Parent adopted the LVB Acquisition, Inc. 2007 Management Equity Incentive Plan (the 2007 LVB Plan), which provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of common stock of
Parent (the LVB Options) to our and our affiliates key employees, directors, service providers and consultants. Generally, 50% of the LVB Options granted to employees vest based on continued employment, 25% vest based on continued
employment and have an exercise price that increases by 10% per annum, and 25% vest based on the achievement of annual EBITDA based performance criteria established by the Board of Parent or a committee appointed by the Board of Parent. We also
have granted LVB Options to our distributors, which are expected to be eligible to vest based on the achievement of specified sales targets.

In 2008, the Board of Parent adopted an addendum to the 2007 LVB Plan, which provides the ability to grant leveraged equity awards in Parent under the 2007 LVB Plan (the LVB Leveraged Awards, and together with the LVB Options,
the LVB Awards). LVB Leveraged Awards permit participants to purchase shares of LVB common stock using the proceeds of non recourse loans from Parent, which shares remain subject to forfeiture and other restrictions prior to the
participants repayment of the loan.

Upon termination of a participants employment, the 2007 LVB Plan provides that any
unvested portion of a participants LVB Award will be forfeited, and that the vested portion of his or her LVB Award will expire on the earlier of (1) the date participants employment is terminated for cause, (2) 30 days
following the date the participant resigns without good reason, (3) 90 days after the date the participants employment is terminated by us for any reason other than cause, death, disability or the participants resignation with good
reason, (4) one year after the date the participants employment is terminated by reason of death or disability or (5) the tenth anniversary of the grant date of the LVB Award.

Prior to receiving shares of LVB common stock (whether pursuant to the exercise of LVB Options, purchased pursuant to an LVB Leveraged Award or
otherwise), participants must execute a Management Stockholders Agreement, which provides that the shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, put and call rights, and tag along and drag along rights (and, with respect to certain
senior members of management, limited re offer registration and preemptive rights).

There were 37,520,000 shares of LVB common stock
reserved for issuance in connection with LVB Awards to be granted pursuant to the 2007 LVB Plan. The Compensation Committee is responsible for administering the 2007 LVB Plan and authorizing the grant of LVB Awards pursuant thereto, and may amend
the 2007 LVB Plan (and any LVB Awards) at any time. LVB Awards may not be granted under the 2007 LVB Plan on or after November 16, 2017. Following the Transactions, a total of 28,373,500 LVB Options were granted to employees and distributors
under the 2007 LVB Plan during the 2008 fiscal year and 769,500 LVB Leveraged Awards were granted to employees under the 2007 LVB Plan during the 2008 fiscal year. Of the 23,373,500 LVB Options granted during the 2008 fiscal year, 7,245,000 were
granted to our named executive officers and of the 769,500 LVB Leveraged Awards granted during the 2008 fiscal year, none were granted to our named executive officers.

##### Table of Contents

Perquisites. We believe that our approach to perquisites has historically been, and continues to
be, comparable to other companies in our informal peer group discussed above. Our President and Chief Executive Officer and other named executive officers have historically generally been permitted, when practical, to use company aircraft for
business and personal travel for security reasons. On a case by case basis, we have historically reimbursed executives for social club dues or offered to provide a travel allowance in connection with Biomet related travel or relocation assistance to
certain members of our senior management team who relocate their principal residence at our request. For example, we have historically, at times, provided reimbursement of moving expenses and protection against a loss on the sale of the
executives home.

Health and Welfare Benefits. Named executive officers have historically received similar benefits to those
provided to all other salaried U.S. employees, such as medical, dental, vision, life insurance and disability coverage.

Post
Termination Compensation and Management Continuity Agreements. As described in further detail below, during the 2008 fiscal year, named executive officers were provided arrangements which specified payments in the event the executives
employment is terminated. The type and amount of payments varied by executive level and the nature of the termination. These severance benefits, which are competitive with the companies discussed above as our informal peer group and general industry
practices, are payable if and only if the executives employment terminates as specified in the applicable plan document or employment agreement. For more information, refer to Employment Agreements and Potential Post Termination
Payments.

Historically, we did not offer management continuity agreements to members of senior management. During the 2007 fiscal
year, however, we engaged The Kinsley Group to assist with the preparation of and execution of change in control agreements with members of our senior management team. These agreements were intended to provide for continuity of management in the
context of a prospective change in control of Biomet. These agreements were necessary to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of our senior management to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of
potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a change in control. In addition, we entered into change in control agreements with Messrs. Binder, Florin and Richardson, each of whom joined after the Transactions were
announced, to provide such executives benefits if the Transactions did not close as expected and a new change in control transaction was consummated. Each of the agreements with Messrs. Binder, Florin and Richardson terminated upon
consummation of the Transactions. For further information on the terms of the change in control agreements, refer to Employment Agreements and Potential Post Termination PaymentsChange in Control Agreements below.

Retirement Plans. We do not sponsor or maintain any pension plans applicable to our U.S. based named executive officers; however, we do have
defined benefit retirement plans for certain of our foreign subsidiaries, discussed herein as our foreign pension plans, which covered certain of our overseas employees. One of these foreign pension plans was applicable to Mr. Van
Broeck during the 2008 fiscal year and sponsored by Biomet Europe B.V. (Biomet Europe). During the 2008 fiscal year Biomet Europe provided all employees, whether salaried or hourly, with the opportunity to build up benefits under pension
plans as part of Biomet Europes standard conditions for working in the Netherlands in order to provide a level of retirement benefits competitive with European market conditions. The benefits under this foreign pension plan are generally based
on years of service and a calculation of the employees weighted average final base salary. Detailed explanations of these terms and calculations can be found in the narrative discussion accompanying the Pension Benefits Table in
Executive Compensation TablesRetirement And Non-Qualified Defined Contribution And Deferred Compensation PlansPension Plans below. The investment objective is to enable a fixed, guaranteed payout to the employee at the
time of the employees retirement, except, in the case of Mr. Van Broeck, for a moderate profit sharing provision, which may affect him by providing an additional benefit based on the collective return of the plan assets. The assets
covered by the pension plan are managed by independent investment professionals, however, due to the guaranteed payout, policyholders are relatively unaffected by poor performance and affected only by positive investment returns under the profit
sharing provision. The net assets of these foreign pension

plans did not include any of our common shares as of April 30, 2008 (the same measurement dates used for the 2008 fiscal year with respect to our
foreign subsidiaries). For information about Mr. Van Broecks pension benefits, refer to the Pension Benefits Table in Executive Compensation TablesRetirement And Non-Qualified Defined Contribution And Deferred
Compensation PlansPension Plans below.

In addition, during the 2008 fiscal year our executive officers were eligible to
participate in our 401(k) plan (the 401(k) Plan). All team members residing in the United States who are at least 18 years of age and complete at least 90 days of continuous service or work at least 1,000 hours per year were also
eligible during the 2008 fiscal year to participate in the 401(k) Plan. Each year we, in our sole discretion, may match 75% of each team members contributions, up to a maximum amount equal to 5% of the team members compensation in cash.
All contributions to the 401(k) Plan are allocated to accounts maintained on behalf of each participating team member and, to the extent vested, are available for distribution to the team member or beneficiary upon retirement, death, disability or
termination of service. The 401(k) Plan generally purchased common shares of Biomet with our matching contribution. Executive officers have also historically participated in our Employee Stock Bonus Plan (the ESBP), which was merged into
and with our 401(k) Plan during the 2008 fiscal year.

In addition, we maintain The Biomet, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the
Deferred Compensation Plan), a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which is available for our senior management. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows eligible participants to defer pre tax compensation to reduce current tax
liability and assist those team members in their planning for retirement and other long-term savings goals in a tax effective manner. We do not make any contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan. Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, eligible
participants may defer up to 100% of their base salary and cash bonus payments. Participants received scheduled distributions from the Deferred Compensation Plan are available, which are treated as ordinary income subject to federal and state income
taxation at the time of distribution. Except in circumstances of hardship, unscheduled withdrawals are not permitted. Amounts contributed to the Deferred Compensation Plan are at the participants election and deemed investments,
which means that the participants have no ownership interest in the investment alternative selected. The participants deferrals and gains are reflected on our financial statements and are our unsecured general assets. The Deferred Compensation
Plan is an unfunded future promise to pay by us. Neither Biomet nor the Deferred Compensation Plan record keeper provides any guarantee of investment return. We do not pay above market interest rates on deferred amounts of compensation.
For more information, refer to Executive Compensation TablesRetirement and Non-Qualified Defined Contribution and Deferred Compensation PlansNon-Qualified Deferred Compensation below.

Policy with Respect to Deductibility of Compensation over $1 Million. Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits to $1.0 million the tax
deductibility of annual compensation paid to certain executives named in the Summary Compensation Table. However, performance based compensation can be excluded from this limit if it meets certain requirements. Prior to the Transactions, the
Compensation Committees policy was historically to consider the impact of Section 162(m) in establishing compensation for our senior executives. However, the Compensation Committee historically retained the discretion to establish
compensation, even if such compensation was not deductible under Section 162(m), if, in the Compensation Committees judgment, such compensation was in our best interest and was reasonably expected to increase shareholder value. Following
the Transactions, because we no longer have publicly held equity, the restrictions of Section 162(m) no longer apply.

Executive Compensation Tables

Summary Compensation Table

The following narrative, tables and footnotes describe the total compensation
earned during the 2007 and 2008 fiscal years by our named executive officers. The total compensation presented below does not reflect the actual compensation received by our named executive officers or the target compensation of our named executive
officers during the 2007 and 2008 fiscal years. The actual value realized by our named executive officers during the 2007 and 2008 fiscal years from long-term incentives (options) is presented in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table below.

The individual components of the total compensation calculation reflected in the Summary Compensation Table are broken out below:

Salary. Base salary earned during the 2008 fiscal year. Refer to The Elements of Biomets Compensation
ProgramBase Salary above for further information concerning this element of our compensation program.

Bonus. For the
2008 fiscal year, we did not have any bonus plans applicable to our named executive officers. Each named executive officer, however, earned an annual performance based cash incentive award as described under Non-equity Incentive Plan
Compensation below.

Option Awards. The awards disclosed under the heading Option Awards consist of grants of
stock options awarded under the Biomet, Inc. 1998 Qualified and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the 1998 Plan) and 2007 LVB Plan. For further information about our stock option programs, refer to The Elements of
Biomets Compensation ProgramStock Options and Leveraged Share Awards above. In addition, details about option awards made during the 2008 fiscal year are included in the Grant of Plan Based Awards Table below. The dollar amounts
for the awards in the Summary Compensation Table below represent the compensation expense recognized during the 2008 fiscal year under SFAS 123(R) for each named executive officer. The recognized compensation expense of the option awards for
financial reporting purposes will likely vary from the actual amount ultimately realized by the named executive officer based on a number of factors. The factors include our actual operating performance, common share price fluctuations, differences
from the valuation assumptions used and the timing of exercise or applicable vesting.

Stock Awards. The only equity based
compensation that we recognized under SFAS 123(R) with respect to our named executive officers for the 2008 fiscal year was in relation to stock option awards. For information about stock options granted to our named executive officers, see
Option Awards immediately above.

Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation. Our named executive officers earned annual
incentive bonuses for the 2008 fiscal year. Refer to The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramNon-equity Incentive Plan above for further information concerning this element of our compensation program.

Change in Pension Value and Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings. We do not sponsor or
maintain any pension plans applicable to our U.S. based named executive officers. For Mr. Van Broeck, the change in pension value represents the aggregate change in the actuarial present value of the accumulated benefit under his pension plan
sponsored by Biomet Europe from April 30, 2007 to May 31, 2008 (the same measurement dates used for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to our audited financial statements for the 2007 and 2008 fiscal years with respect to
our foreign subsidiaries). For information on Mr. Van Broecks retirement benefits and certain material features of the pension plan in which he participates, refer to The Elements of Biomets Compensation
ProgramRetirement Plans above and Retirement And Non-Qualified Defined Contribution And Deferred Compensation PlansPension Plans below.

None of our named executive officers participated in the Deferred Compensation Plan during the 2008 fiscal year. Furthermore, we do not pay above market
or preferential earnings on non-qualified deferred compensation. For information on the Deferred Compensation Plan, refer to Compensation Discussion and AnalysisRetirement Plans.

All Other Compensation. The amounts included under the All Other Compensation heading represent the sum of: (1) certain perquisites and other
personal benefits; (2) Biomet paid contributions to retirement plans; (3) Biomet paid insurance premiums; (4) certain tax reimbursements made by us; and (5) certain other amounts more fully described in footnote (2) to the
Summary Compensation Table.

|(a) | Our incremental cost for personal use of our aircraft is calculated by multiplying the aircrafts hourly variable operating cost by a trips flight time, which includes
any flight time of an empty return flight. Variable operating costs are based on industry standard rates of our variable operating costs, including fuel and oil costs, maintenance and repairs, landing/ramp fees and other miscellaneous variable
costs. On certain occasions, a spouse or other family member may accompany one of our named executive officers on a flight. No additional operating cost is incurred in such situations under the foregoing methodology. We do not pay our named
executive officers any amounts in connection with taxes on income imputed to them for personal use of our aircraft.

| | Pursuant to the employment agreement between us and Mr. Binder, dated February 26, 2007, we agreed to arrange, at our expense, for Mr. Binder to fly once per week to
and from Mr. Binders Texas home and our headquarters or such other location reasonably specified by us during the term of the employment agreement. We will not provide Mr. Binder with a gross up for taxes incurred in
connection with these benefits. If, however, Mr. Binder uses a commercial flight and the income imputed in connection with the commercial flight is greater than the amount that would have been imputed to Mr. Binder if he had used our
aircraft, we will provide to Mr. Binder a gross up for taxes incurred on the incremental income associated with the commercial flight. Our incremental costs associated with extending these benefits to Mr. Binder are capped at
$500,000 in any twelve-month period. For the purposes of applying this limitation, our incremental cost for commercial flights shall be the cost of Mr. Binders tickets and for flights on Biomet-operated aircraft shall be the incremental
per-hour cost associated with Mr. Binders flights and other incremental costs related to such flights, such as landing fees, transportation and housing costs of aircrew and other similar costs. The amount that appears under the Personal
Use of Company Aircraft heading reflects the amount of this rolling twelve-month allowance that Mr. Binder has used. In addition, pursuant to the employment agreement between us and Mr. Binder dated February 26, 2007, we agreed to
purchase Mr. Binders prior residence in Illinois at its appraised value, to be determined by an independent appraiser, up to $2,199,000. Furthermore, we agreed to reimburse Mr. Binder for certain capital gains taxes, if any, incurred
as a result of the sale of Mr. Binders prior residence. As a result of the independent appraisal, we purchased Mr. Binders prior residence for significantly less than the maximum amount and Mr. Binder has not recognized
any gain on the sale of his prior residence. As a result of our subsequent sale of Mr. Binders former residence, the amount paid by us to Mr. Binder is not reflected in the amount shown in the table above for Mr. Binder under the
All Other Compensation heading. In addition, because Mr. Binder recognized a loss on the sale of his house, we have not paid any gross up amounts to Mr. Binder in connection with the sale of his house.

|(b) | Also, pursuant to the employment agreement between us and Mr. Binder dated February 26, 2007, we agreed to reimburse Mr. Binder up to $1,320,000 if Mr. Binder is required to pay his
former employer in connection with the termination of his previous employment. On September 21, 2007, we paid $1,320,000 to Mr. Binder in connection with this obligation.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(c) | Represents the cost to us of providing temporary housing to Mr. Binder in Warsaw, Indiana.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(d) | Represents the cost to us of providing temporary housing to Mr. Richardson in Warsaw, Indiana.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(e) | Represents the cost to us of providing a car to Mr. Van Broeck.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------

|(f) | Represents the Biomet-paid portion of Mr. Van Broecks government mandated health and wellness expense.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | In addition to the foregoing compensation, named executive officers also participated in health and welfare benefit programs, including vacation and medical, dental, prescription
drug and disability coverage. These programs are generally available and comparable to those programs provided to all U.S. salaried employees.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table

As discussed in further detail in Compensation Discussion and
AnalysisIntroduction above, in connection with the Transactions all stock options outstanding under the 1998 Plan and the Biomet, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan) (whether held by officers, directors, employees
or distributors) were cancelled and the holders thereof became entitled to receive from us an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the $46.00 offer price over the option exercise price for each share subject to the stock option, in each case, less
any applicable withholding taxes and without interest and regardless of whether or not the awards were then vested or exercisable. Following consummation of the Transactions, the 2007 LVB Plan was established. For a further discussion of the 2007
LVB Plan, see The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramStock Options and Leveraged Share Awards. During the 2008 fiscal year, we granted stock options to our named executive officers under the 2007 LVB Plan.
Information with respect to each of these awards on a grant-by-grant basis is set forth in the table below. For additional discussion of the 2007 LVB Plan and certain material terms of the stock option awards under this plan, refer to
The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramStock Options and Leveraged Share Awards. All stock option awards to our named executive officers during the 2008 fiscal year were made such that the exercise price of the
awards was equal to the fair market value of LVBs common shares on the date of grant.

During the 2008 fiscal year, we also granted
cash incentive awards to our named executive officers under our non-equity incentive plan. Information with respect to each of these payments is set forth in the table below. For additional discussion of our non-equity incentive plan, refer to
The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramNon-Equity Incentive Plan.

|(1) | For each named executive officer listed in the Grant of Plan-Based Awards Table above, the value reflects the full grant-date fair value calculated under SFAS 123(R) solely for
awards granted during the 2008 fiscal year. The fair value of the stock option awards for financial reporting purposes likely will vary from the actual amount ultimately realized by the named executive officer based on a number of factors. These
factors include our actual operating performance, common share price fluctuations, differences from the valuation assumptions used and the timing of exercise or applicable vesting. See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements for the
assumptions made in determining SFAS 123(R) values.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table

As discussed in further detail in Introduction above, in connection with the Transactions all stock options outstanding under the 1998
Plan and the 2006 Plan (whether held by officers, directors, employees or distributors) were cancelled and the holders thereof became entitled to receive from us an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the $46.00 offer price over the option
exercise price for each share subject to the stock option, in each case, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest and regardless of whether or not the awards were then vested or exercisable. Following consummation of the
Transactions, the 2007 LVB Plan was established. For a further discussion of the 2007 LVB Plan, see The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramStock Options and Leveraged Share Awards.

We have historically awarded stock options to members of our senior management and our other team members throughout Biomet. Generally, of the awards
listed in the table below, 50% vest based on continued employment, 25% vest based on continued employment and have an exercise price that increases by 10% per annum, and 25% vest based on the achievement of annual EBITDA-based performance
criteria established by the Compensation Committee. For information on the vesting schedule of the unvested portions of outstanding equity awards listed below, refer to footnote (2) to the table

below. Upon termination of a participants employment, the 2007 LVB Plan provides that any unvested portion of a participants LVB Award will be
forfeited, and that the vested portion of his or her LVB Award will expire on the earlier of (1) the date the participants employment is terminated for cause, (2) 30 days following the date the participant resigns without good
reason, (3) 90 days after the date the participants employment is terminated either by us for any reason other than cause, death, disability or by the participant with good reason, (4) one year after the date the participants
employment is terminated by reason of death or disability or (5) the tenth anniversary of the grant date of the LVB Award.

For
further information on our stock option awards and their material terms, refer to The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramStock Options and Leveraged Share Awards. For information about stock option awards granted
solely during the 2008 fiscal year, refer to Grant of Plan-Based Awards Table.

The following table shows the equity
awards granted to our named executive officers, which are comprised solely of stock option awards under the 2007 LVB Plan (vested and unvested), that were outstanding as of the end of the 2008 fiscal year.

During the 2008 fiscal year, no option awards were exercised and no stock awards vested applicable to Biomets named executive officers.

In connection with the Transactions, however, all stock options outstanding under the 1998 Plan and the 2006 Plan (whether held by officers,
directors, employees or distributors) were cancelled and the holders thereof became entitled to receive from us an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the $46.00 offer price over the option exercise price for each share subject to the stock
option, in each case, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest and regardless of whether or not the awards were then vested or exercisable. For a further description of amounts received by named executive officers in connection
with the Transactions (including as a result of the cancellation of stock options), see Biomets Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on August 8, 2007.

We do not sponsor or maintain any pension plans applicable to our U.S.-based named executive officers. Of our named executive officers, only Mr. Van
Broeck, who is based in the Netherlands, participated in a foreign pension plan sponsored by Biomet Europe during the 2008 fiscal year. Biomet Europe offers certain of its employees, whether salaried or hourly, with the opportunity to build up
benefits under pension plans as part of Biomet Europes standard conditions for working in order to provide a level of retirement benefits competitive with European market conditions. Biomet Europe provides employees with pension benefits
beginning after the completion of twelve consecutive months of employment with Biomet Europe. Once this minimum condition is met, however, the employee is credited with accrued time of service for the first twelve months of employment.

Under the foreign pension plan applicable to Mr. Van Broeck during the 2008 fiscal year, the basic contribution was a fixed premium to which he
contributed 7% of his annual base salary and Biomet Europe contributed the remainder. Mr. Van Broecks bonus was not included for the purposes of pension calculations or contributions. Certain employees have historically been affected by a
maximum pensionable salary condition, which imposed a cap on the amount of salary used for calculations that affect certain amounts, such as premiums and benefits. The benefits provided under this foreign pension plan are based on the following
formula:

years of service x 1.75% x final salary

Under this foreign pension plan, years of service is calculated on a monthly basis from the date corresponding to the date that the employee
first signed a contract with the plan provider providing the underlying coverage, which is meant to correspond to the first day of the employees employment at Biomet Europe. The maximum number of years of credited service is 40 years. Biomet
Europe does not allow additional years of service credits to be granted to employees under this plan. For the purpose of the benefits formula, the calculation presumes the employee accrues 40 years of credited service and then the value is adjusted
downward, if necessary.

In addition, under this foreign pension plan, final salary is calculated as the average of the
employees base salary over the last five calendar years of his or her employment at Biomet Europe.

Benefits under the plan do not
provide the employee with a lump sum following retirement. The plan provides for the purchase of an annuity, which in operation provides a monthly retirement allowance. The full benefits are payable only at normal retirement age and the early
retirement results in a reduction in benefits. Retirement age under the plan is age 65.

The benefits provided by this foreign pension plan
provide a guaranteed payout, which is intended to be based on the targeted annual payout of an annuity purchased at the time of retirement. Mr. Van Broeck joined this plan in 1998, which provides for him to receive a guaranteed annuity on
September 1, 2013.

Pension Benefits Table

The following table describes the estimated actuarial present value of accrued pension benefits through the end of the 2008 fiscal year for each of the named executive officers listed in the table. The calculation of
actuarial present value is generally consistent with the methodology and assumptions outlined in our audited financial statements, except that the calculation does not assume an average salary increase of 3.0%, a discount rate of 4.9% or an
inflation rate of 2.0% because Mr. Van Broecks salary is frozen for the purposes of the pension plan and because the payout amount is guaranteed. In addition, the calculation presumes an implied rate of return on the plan assets during
the 2008 fiscal year of 4.0%. The expected rate of return on the plan assets is 4.9%, as assumed in conjunction with the preparation of our audited financial statements. The actuarial present value of benefits is calculated in accordance with the
following assumptions: (1) assumed retirement age: 65; (2) no pre-retirement decrements; and (3) assumed form of payment: lump sum. The actuarial increase during the 2008 fiscal year of the projected retirement benefits can be found
in the Summary Compensation Table under the Change in Pension Value and Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings heading (for Mr. Van Broeck, the amount reported under that heading represents actuarial increases in
Mr. Van Broecks plan).

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

Biomets Deferred Compensation Plan is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which is available for members of our senior management. The Plan allows eligible participants to defer pre-tax compensation to
reduce current tax liability and assist those team members in their plan for retirement and other long-term savings goals in a tax-effective manner. Under the Plan, eligible participants may defer up to 100% of their base salary and bonus payments,
as well as Board fees for non-employee Directors, as applicable. We do not make any contributions to the Plan. For further information on the Deferred Compensation Plan, refer to The Elements of Biomets Compensation
ProgramRetirement Plans.

During the 2008 fiscal year, none of Biomets named executive officers participated in the Deferred
Compensation Plan. We do not pay above-market or preferential earnings on non-qualified deferred compensation.

Employment Agreements and Potential
Post-Termination Payments

Of our current named executive officers, we have an employment agreement with Messrs. Binder, Florin, Van
Broeck, Kashuba and Scheiss and have an offer letter with Mr. Richardson.

On September 20, 2006, we entered into
change-in-control agreements with Messrs. Van Broeck and Scheiss and other executive officers and their respective employment agreements contain change-in-control and severance provisions that will apply upon expiration of the change-in-control
agreements. In addition, our employment agreements with Messrs. Binder, Florin and Kashuba contain change-in-control provisions.

In
addition, on September 21, 2006, we adopted the Biomet, Inc. Executive Severance Pay Plan, or the Severance Plan, which provides each of our participating executives with severance benefits in the event of certain terminations of the
executives employment. The following narrative describes the terms of these various agreements and the Severance Plan.

Employment Agreement
with Jeffrey R. Binder

On June 11, 2008, we entered into an amended and restated employment agreement, which we refer to as
the employment agreement, with Mr. Binder, our President and Chief Executive Officer. The amended and restated employment agreement supersedes our original employment agreement with Mr. Binder dated as of February 26, 2007, which we refer to as
the original employment agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the employment agreement between us and Mr. Binder, the agreement has an initial three-year term that provides for automatic twelve-month extensions, beginning on the first anniversary
of the agreement, unless either we or Mr. Binder give prior notice of termination. Mr. Binder will receive a base salary at a rate no less than $650,000 per year, which shall be increased at our discretion. Mr. Binders
employment agreement provides that he will also have the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus in an amount no less than 100% of his base salary for on-target performance with the possibility of exceeding 100% for high achievement. For a further
discussion of our non-equity incentive plan, see The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramNon-Equity Incentive Plan.

Mr. Binders employment agreement provides that we will arrange, at our expense, for Mr. Binder to fly once per week to and from his Texas home and our headquarters or such other location reasonably specified by us during the
term of the employment agreement. We will not provide Mr. Binder with a gross up for taxes incurred in connection with these benefits. If, however, Mr. Binder uses a commercial flight and the income imputed in connection with
the commercial flight is greater than the amount that would have been imputed to Mr. Binder if he had used our aircraft, we will provide to Mr. Binder a gross up for taxes incurred on the incremental income associated with the
commercial flight. Our incremental costs associated with extending these benefits to Mr. Binder are capped at $500,000 in any twelve month period.

Unlike the original employment agreement, our amended and restated employment agreement with

Mr. Binder does not provide
for annual equity grants, and does not provide for accelerated vesting of the outstanding equity awards that would have vested during the twelve-month period following termination of employment if we terminate Mr. Binders employment for any
reason other than for cause (as defined in the agreement), death or disability, or Mr. Binder terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the agreement). The employment agreement provides that, upon any termination of Mr. Binders
employment, his rights with respect to any equity or equity-related awards will be governed by the applicable terms of the related plan or award agreement. Mr. Binder could be entitled to certain severance benefits following termination of
employment prior to a change-in-control (as defined in the agreement) or within two years of a change-in-control. Severance payable to Mr. Binder under such circumstances was previously provided for under the Change in Control Agreement entered into
between us and Mr. Binder as of February 26, 2007, which we refer to as the original change in control agreement. The original change in control agreement expired by its terms on July 11, 2007 upon consummation of the Closing, as defined
in the Merger Agreement.

##### Table of Contents

Under the employment agreement, if Mr. Binders employment is terminated at any time within the
two-year period following a change in control either by us for any reason other than for cause, death or disability, or by Mr. Binder for good reason, (a) his severance multiple would be increased from 1.5 times base salary and annual incentive
bonus to two times base salary and annual incentive bonus and (b) his pro rated bonus for the year of termination of employment would be based on his target annual incentive bonus for such year rather than the actual annual incentive bonus he would
have received for such year (as determined based on the Companys performance to the date of termination of employment, extrapolated through the end of such fiscal year). The employment agreement further provides that if Mr. Binder is subject
to the golden parachute excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code as amended, the Company will pay him an additional amount such that he is placed in the same after-tax position as if no excise tax had been imposed. See
Severance Benefits below.

Employment Agreements with Roger P. Van Broeck and Steven F. Scheiss

On February 1, 2008, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Van Broeck, our Vice President and President of Biomet Europe, to become
Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Biomet Luxembourg Holding Sarl and Director of Biomet Hong Kong Limited, and on February 28, 2008, we entered into an employment agreement with Steven F. Scheiss, our Vice President and President of Biomet
3i, LLC. Both Mr. Van Broeck and Mr. Scheiss will be referred to in this section as Executive. Both agreements have an initial three-year term that provides for automatic twelve-month extensions, beginning on the first
anniversary of the agreement, unless either party gives prior notice of termination. Mr. Van Broeck and Mr. Scheiss will receive base salaries at a rate no less than $410,251 and $298,710 per year, respectively, which shall be adjusted at
our discretion. Both Mr. Van Broeck and Mr. Scheiss will also have the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus in an amount no less than 80% of his base salary for on-target performance, with the possibility of exceeding 80% for high
achievement.

If Messrs. Van Broecks or Scheiss employment is terminated prior to July 11, 2009, his severance
benefits will be governed by his change-in-control agreement, dated September 20, 2006. See Change-in-Control Agreements, below.

If we terminate Messrs. Van Broeck or Scheiss employment after July 11, 2009, the agreement provides that Mr. Van Broeck or Mr. Scheiss, as applicable, could be entitled to certain
severance benefits following termination of employment prior to a change-in-control (as defined in the agreement) or within two years of a change-in-control. See Severance Benefits below.

Employment Agreements with Daniel P. Florin and Glen A. Kashuba

On February 28, 2008, we entered into employment agreements with Mr. Florin, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and with Mr. Kashuba, our Senior Vice President and President of
Biomet Trauma and Biomet Spine. Both Mr. Florin and Mr. Kashuba will be referred to in this section as Executive. Both agreements have an initial three-year term that provides for automatic twelve-month extensions, beginning on
the first anniversary of the agreement, unless either party gives prior notice of termination. Mr. Florin and Mr. Kashuba will receive a base salary at a rate no less than $395,850 and $397,722 per year, respectively, which shall be
increased at our discretion. Executive will also have the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus in an amount no less than 80% of his base salary for on-target performance, with the possibility of exceeding 80% for high achievement. For a further
discussion of our non-equity incentive plan, see The Elements of Biomets Compensation ProgramNon-equity Incentive Plan.

The agreements further provide that Executive could be entitled to certain severance benefits following termination of employment prior to a change-in-control (as defined in the agreements) or within two years of a change-in-control. See
Severance Benefits below.

Offer Letter to J. Pat Richardson

On March 30, 2007, we announced the appointment of J. Pat Richardson as Corporate Vice PresidentFinance and Interim Chief Financial Officer and
Treasurer effective April 11, 2007. Pursuant to an offer of employment between us and Mr. Richardson, Mr. Richardson receives, among other benefits, a base salary of $250,000 per year, an opportunity to earn an annual bonus of 60% of
base salary for on-target performance, a car allowance, relocation benefits and other customary benefits. In the event that the Merger Agreement was terminated, Mr. Richardson would have been entitled to equity awards issued by the Compensation
Committee that are commensurate with his position with us. The options would have been subject to the terms and conditions applicable to options granted under the 2006 Plan, as described in the 2006 Plan and the applicable stock option award. As a
result of the Transaction being consummated, Mr. Richardson did not receive this benefit but Mr. Richardson did receive an equity award in Parent following the consummation of the Transaction. For further information, refer to
Executive Compensation TablesGrant of Plan-Based Awards Table. Further, Mr. Richardsons offer letter provides that if Mr. Richardson is terminated for any reason within the first three years of employment, he
is required to repay us his relocation costs. This repayment obligation lapses with respect to 33% of this relocation cost for each year of employment after the date of the agreement.

Severance Benefits Provided Under Employment Agreements

Each of our employment agreements
with Messrs. Binder, Florin, Van Broeck, Scheiss and Kashuba contains provisions which entitles the executive to certain severance benefits following termination of employment prior to a change of control (as defined in the agreement) or within two
years following a change of control.



| |  |  | With respect to Messrs. Van Broeck and Scheiss, on September 20, 2006 we entered into change-in-control agreements with Mr. Van Broeck, Mr. Scheiss
and certain other executive officers. If Messrs. Van Broeck or Scheiss employment is terminated prior to July 11, 2009, our employment agreements with Messrs. Van Broeck and Scheiss provide that the terms of our severance arrangement with
Messrs. Van Broeck or Scheiss will be governed by our applicable September 20, 2006 change of control agreements with Messrs. Van Broeck or Scheiss, as applicable. For a further description of our September 20, 2006 change-in-control
agreements with Messrs. Van Broeck and Scheiss see Change-in-Control Agreements below.

The following summary provides a description of the
severance arrangements contained in our employment agreements with Messrs. Binder, Florin, Van Broeck, Scheiss and Kashuba. Other than with respect to Mr. Binder as described in Termination by Biomet Within Two Years Following a
Change-in-control Other Than For Cause, Death or Disability or by Executive for Good Reason the following summary does not discuss executives rights with respect to any equity related awards as such awards are governed by the
applicable terms of the related plan or award agreement.

Termination by Biomet Prior to a Change of Control Other Than For Cause, Death or
Disability or by Executive for Good Reason

In the event of a termination prior to a change of control (and, with respect to Messrs.

Change-in-Control Agreements

On September 20, 2006, we entered into change-in-control agreements with our then current executive officers, including Messrs. Van Broeck and Schiess. The agreements were intended to provide for continuity
of management in the context of a prospective change in control of Biomet, which is generally defined as a change in the majority of the Board, not including any new Board member approved by the majority of the Board, any person becoming the
beneficial owner of 20% or more of our outstanding shares, any reorganization, merger, sale of all or substantially all of our assets or similar corporate transaction or approval by the shareholders of our complete liquidation. For additional
information, see the change-in-control agreements previously filed with the SEC. Upon a change in control, including as a result of the Transactions, the agreements remain in effect for a period of at least 24 months beyond the month of such change
in control. Each agreement provides that during the 24-month period following a change in control, we agree to continue to employ the executive and the executive agrees to remain in our employ.

In addition, prior to consummating the Transactions, we entered into change-in-control agreements with Messrs. Binder and Richardson, each of which
terminated by its terms upon consummation of the Transactions. The agreements are intended to provide for continuity of our management in the event of a change in control other than as a result of the consummation of the Transactions, which are
exempted from the agreements. The terms of the agreements are substantially the same as the terms of the agreements entered into on September 20, 2006, which are described above.

Under the change-in-control agreements, if, following a change in control, certain executives die or are terminated either by us for any reason other
than for cause, which is generally defined as willful failure to substantially perform the executives duties, willfully engaging in conduct injurious to us or conviction of a felony, or disability, or by the executives for
good reason, generally defined as any demotion, assignment of duties inconsistent with their title, relocation, any failure to pay or provide benefits to the executive (for more information, please see the agreements on file with the
SEC) the executives would be entitled to: (1) a lump sum severance payment equal to two times the sum of the executives annual base salary, target bonus (or, in certain circumstances, the executives annual bonus earned during a
specified time period), our annual contributions to all qualified retirement plans on behalf of the executive and the executives total annual car allowance; (2) the executive would receive a payout of his unpaid annual base salary, the
higher of the executives target bonus for the fiscal year in which termination occurs or the actual bonus paid to the executive for the fiscal year preceding termination and other accrued compensation and benefits through the end of the fiscal
year containing the termination date; (3) we would pay the executive a lump sum cash stipend equal to 24 times the monthly premium then charged for family coverage under our medical and dental plans and (4) the executive would receive life
insurance and long-term disability benefits, or the cash equivalent if not available, substantially similar to those that the executive is receiving immediately prior to the notice of termination for a 24-month period after the date of termination.
The change-in-control agreements also provide for the reimbursement of outplacement services for a period of 12 months after termination occurs, but not in excess of $25,000.

In the event an anticipatory termination (as defined in the agreements) occurs, the executive would receive the same benefits as they would
upon a termination without cause (as defined in the agreements). The executive is also entitled to receive $25,000 in liquidated damages.

In the event that any payments made to the executives in connection with a change in control and termination of employment would be subject to excise taxes under the Internal Revenue Code, we will gross up
the executives compensation to offset certain of such excise taxes. Severance benefits, other than the life insurance and long-term disability benefits, are generally not subject to mitigation or reduction. To receive the severance benefits
provided under the agreements, the executive must sign a general release of claims. In connection with the execution of the agreements, each executive executed a customary confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation agreement with us.

Severance Pay Plan

On September 21, 2006, we adopted the Biomet, Inc. Executive Severance Pay Plan for the executives party to the change-in-control agreements described above. The Severance Plan provides each of our
participating executives with severance benefits in the event of a termination of the executives employment unrelated to the executives (1) performance of his employment duties or (2) commission of an act or acts outside of the
scope of his employment duties that would constitute the basis of a termination for cause under his agreement.

Severance benefits under
the Severance Plan generally consist of the following: (1) payment of a pro-rata target bonus (based on the elapsed portion of the year of termination) in a lump sum; (2) continued payment of base salary for 52 weeks plus one week per full
year of service with us, up to a maximum of 78 weeks following the termination date; (3) immediate vesting of all of the executives outstanding equity awards (stock options and restricted stock); (4) at our expense, continuation of
coverage under our health insurance plans pursuant to COBRA for a period not to exceed eighteen months from the termination date; and (5) continuation of any Biomet-provided car allowance for a period of twelve months from the termination date.

As a condition to receiving severance benefits under the Severance Plan, the executive must execute a waiver and release of claims in
favor of us and enter into to a customary confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation agreement with us. Severance benefits under the Severance Plan are generally intended to be the sole source of severance benefits payable upon a
termination of the executives employment and are generally not subject to mitigation or reduction. We may amend or terminate the Severance Plan at any time. In the event the executive is entitled to benefits under the change-in-control
agreement as a result of a termination of employment, such executive is not entitled to receive benefits under the Severance Plan.

Potential Payments
Upon Certain Terminations

This table shows the potential compensation that we would have to pay to certain named executive officers
upon a termination by us without cause or by the executive with good reason (as defined in the applicable agreements) related or unrelated to a change in control, death or disability related or unrelated to a change in
control, and termination with cause or without good reason (as defined in the applicable agreements), related or unrelated to change in control. The table excludes certain amounts payable pursuant to plans that are available
generally to all salaried employees. In the event of the death or disability of any of the named executive officers listed in the following table, the deceased or disabled named executive officer, or his designated beneficiaries, would also receive
a payment pursuant to the terms of Biomet-funded life or disability plans, respectively, in the addition to the amounts set forth below. The amounts shown assume that termination of employment was effective May 31, 2008. The amounts shown are
only estimates of the amounts that would be payable to the executives upon termination of employment and do not reflect tax positions we may take or the accounting treatment of such payments. Actual amounts to be paid can only be determined at the
time of separation. Although the calculations are intended to provide reasonable estimates of the potential benefits, they are based on numerous assumptions and do not represent the actual amount an executive would receive if an eligible termination
event were to occur.

Non-Employee Director Compensation and Benefits

In
accordance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement, on July 17, 2007 each of Messrs. Jerry L. Ferguson, M. Ray Harroff, Thomas F. Kearns, Jr., Jerry L. Miller, Charles E. Niemier and Niles L. Noblitt and Mses. Sandra A. Lamb and Marilyn
Tucker Quayle and September 25, 2007 each of Messrs. C. Scott Harrison, M.D., Kenneth V. Miller and L. Gene Tanner (collectively the Resigning Directors), resigned from the Board of Directors and from any committees thereof.

Our compensation package for non-employee directors during the 2008 fiscal year prior to consummation of the Transactions was generally
comprised of cash (annual retainers and committee meeting fees) and stock option awards. The annual pay package was designed to attract and retain highly-qualified, independent professionals to represent our shareholders and reflect our position in
the industry. Our compensation package is also designed to create alignment between our directors and our shareholders through the use of equity-based awards.

In connection with the Transactions, new members of the Board were appointed by our sole stockholder, Parent, on behalf of the Sponsors, and generally have not received cash retainer or committee fees or stock option awards.

Business Expenses

The directors are reimbursed for
their business expenses related to their attendance at our meetings, including room, meals and transportation to and from Board and committee meetings. On rare occasions, a directors spouse may accompany a director when traveling on Biomet
business. At times, a director may travel to and from our meetings on our corporate aircraft. Directors are also eligible to be reimbursed for attendance at qualified director education programs.

Director and Officer Liability Insurance, or D&O, and Travel Accident Insurance

D&O insurance individually insures our directors and officers against certain losses that they are legally required to bear as a result of their actions while performing duties on our behalf. Our D&O insurance
policy does not break out the premium for directors versus officers and, therefore, a dollar amount cannot be assigned to the coverage provided for individual directors.

We also maintain an Aviation Insurance Policy that provides benefits to each director in the event of death or disability (permanent and total) during travel on our corporate aircraft. This policy also covers
employees and others while traveling on our corporate aircraft and, therefore, a dollar amount cannot be assigned to the coverage provided for individual directors.

Non-Employee Directors Compensation Table

The following table shows information regarding the
compensation of our non-employee directors for the 2008 fiscal year. Mr. Binder is not included in the table below because, as President and Chief Executive Officer, disclosure in respect of his compensation is presented in the Summary
Compensation Table. Furthermore, as an employee director, Mr. Binder did not receive compensation in his capacity as a director.

|Item 12. | Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
|-------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Parent owns all of our issued and outstanding capital stock. Holding owns 99.23% of Parent and the remaining 0.77% is owned by the Management
Participants. All equity interests in Holding are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Sponsor Funds and the Co-Investors.

The following
table sets forth information with respect to the ownership as of May 31, 2008 for (a) each person known by us to own beneficially more than a 5% equity interest in Holdings, (b) each member of our Board of Directors, (c) each of
our named executive officers, and (d) all of our executive officers and directors as a group. Biomet, Inc. has 1,000 shares of common stock outstanding, all of which are owned directly by Parent. Share amounts indicated below reflect beneficial
ownership, through Holding, by such entities or individuals of these 1,000 shares of Biomet, Inc.

The amounts and percentages of shares
beneficially owned are reported on the basis of SEC regulations governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under SEC rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares
voting power or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial
ownership within 60 days. Securities that can be so acquired are deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing such persons ownership percentage, but not for purposes of computing any other persons percentage. Under these rules,
more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest.

Except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, each of the beneficial owners has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect
to the indicated shares. Unless otherwise noted, the address of each beneficial owner is c/o Biomet, Inc., 56 East Bell Drive, Warsaw, Indiana 46582.

|Item 13. | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence.
|-------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement of Holding

The Sponsor Funds have entered into an
amended and restated limited liability company operating agreement, or the LLC Agreement, in respect of Holding. The LLC Agreement contains agreements among the parties with respect to the election of our directors and the directors of our parent
companies, restrictions on the issuance or transfer of interests in us and other corporate governance provisions (including the right to approve various corporate actions).

Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, each of the Sponsors has the right to nominate, and have nominated, two directors to our Board of Directors and also are
entitled to appoint one non-voting observer to the Board of Directors for so long as such Sponsor remains a member of Holding. In addition to their right to appoint non-voting observers to the Board of Directors, certain of the Sponsor Funds have
certain other management rights to the extent that any such Sponsor Fund is required to operate as a venture capital operating company as defined in the regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Labor at Section 2510.3-101 of
Part 2510 of Chapter XXV, Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, or any Successor regulations. Each Sponsors right to nominate directors is freely assignable to funds affiliated with such Sponsor, and is assignable to non-affiliates of
such Sponsor only if the assigning Sponsor transfers its entire interest in Holding not previously transferred and only with the prior written consent of the Sponsors holding at least 70% of the membership interests in Holding, or Requisite Sponsor
Consent. In addition to their rights under the LLC Agreement, the Sponsors may also appoint one or more persons unaffiliated with any of the Sponsors to the Board of Directors. Following Purchasers purchase of the Shares tendered in the Offer,
the Sponsors jointly appointed Dr. Miller and Jeffrey R. Binder to the Board of Directors in addition to the two directors appointed by each of the Sponsors.

##### Table of Contents

Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, each director has one vote for purposes of any Board of Directors action,
and all decisions of the Board of Directors require the approval of a majority of the directors designated by the Sponsors. In addition, the LLC Agreement provides that certain major decisions regarding us or our parent companies require Requisite
Sponsor Consent.

The LLC Agreement includes certain customary agreements with respect to restrictions on the issuance or transfer of
interests in us, including preemptive rights, tag-along rights and drag-along rights.

The Co-Investors have also been admitted as members
of Holding, both directly and through Sponsor controlled investment vehicles. Although the Co-Investors are therefore parties to the LLC Agreement, they have no rights with respect to the election of our directors or the approval of our corporate
actions.

The Sponsors have also caused Holding and Parent to enter into a letter agreement with us obligating us and Parent to take all
actions necessary to give effect to the corporate governance, preemptive rights, transfer restriction and certain other provisions of the LLC Agreement, and prohibiting us and Parent from taking any actions that would be inconsistent with such
provisions of the LLC Agreement.

Registration Rights Agreement

The Sponsor Funds and the Co-Investors also entered into a registration rights agreement with us upon the closing of the Transactions. Pursuant to this agreement, the Sponsor Funds have the power to cause us to
register their, the Co-Investors and certain other persons interests in Biomet under the Securities Act and to maintain a shelf registration statement effective with respect to such interests. The agreement also entitles the Sponsor
Funds and the Co-Investors to participate in any future registration of our equity interests under the Securities Act that we may undertake.

Management
Services Agreement

Upon completion of the Transactions, we entered into a management services agreement with certain affiliates of the
Sponsors, pursuant to which such affiliates of the Sponsors or their Successors, assigns, affiliates, officers, employees and/or representatives and third parties (collectively, the Managers) provide management, advisory and consulting
services to us. Pursuant to such agreement, the Managers will receive a transaction fee equal to 1% of total enterprise value of the Transactions for the services rendered by such entities related to the Transactions upon entering into the
agreement, an annual monitoring fee equal to 1% of our annual Adjusted EBITDA as compensation for the services rendered and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Managers in connection with the agreement and the Transactions. We
are required to pay the sponsors a fee on a quarterly basis. In total we paid each of the above sponsors $1.5 million for a total of $6.1 million during fiscal 2008. As of May 31, 2008, the amount payable to the sponsors was $2.3 million.
During the 2008 fiscal year we also entered into a consulting agreement with Capstone Consulting, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blackstone, LLC, to perform analysis related to our operational improvement initiative. We paid Capstone Consulting $1.2
million throughout fiscal 2008. We may also pay certain subsequent fees to the Managers for advice rendered in connection with financing or refinancing (equity or debt), acquisition, disposition, spin-off, split-off, dividend, recapitalization,
initial underwritten public offering and change of control transactions involving us or any of our subsidiaries. The management services agreement includes customary exculpation and indemnification provisions in favor of the Managers and their
affiliates.

The Company currently holds interest rate swaps with Goldman Sachs. As part of this relationship, we receive information from
Goldman Sachs that allows us to run a regression on the swaps as part of our required effectiveness testing on a quarterly basis.

Capital Contributions

During the 2008 fiscal year, the Company received a capital contribution from its parent company by trusts affiliated with Dane A.
Miller and Mary Louise Miller during the fourth quarter in the amount of $120.0 million.

##### Table of Contents

The Company also received an additional capital contribution of $14.4 million from its parent company from the participation of management under the LVB
Acquisition Inc., Management Stockholders Agreement.

Related-Party Transactions Review

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide that all conflict of interest transactions with our directors, which are transactions with the
Company in which a director has a direct or indirect interest, must be fair to us and must be reviewed and approved by a majority vote of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors or a committee thereof.

Fees for audit services above include those from Deloitte & Touche (audit and consulting
related) and Ernst & Young (audit related), and other local international firms (statutory audit purposes only). Fees for audit services include fees associated with the annual audit of consolidated financial statements, the reviews of
Biomets quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, audit-related accounting consultations, audit-related acquisition accounting and statutory audits required internationally. Audit-related fees principally included work related to our Registration
Statements on Forms S-1 and S-4, due diligence in connection with acquisitions, assistance with implementation of various rules and standards and benefit plan audits. Tax fees included tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. The Audit Committee
has adopted policies and procedures for approving in advance all audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed for Biomet by its independent accountants, subject to certain de minimis exceptions approved by the Audit Committee. Prior to the
engagement of the independent accountants for the next years audit, management, with the participation of the independent accountants, submits to the Audit Committee for approval an aggregate request for services expected to be rendered during
that year for various categories of services.
