by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company

(b) The consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Business
Combination”), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A) all or

respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting
Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock
and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting
from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation which as a
result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s
assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case
may be, (B) no Person (excluding any Permitted Holder) beneficially owns, directly or
indirectly, 50% or more (on a fully diluted basis) of, respectively, the then
outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business
Combination, taking into account as outstanding for this purpose such common stock
issuable upon the exercise of options or warrants, the conversion of convertible stock
or debt, and the exercise of any similar right to acquire such common stock, or the
combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation
except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and
(C) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation
resulting from such Business Combination were members of the incumbent Board at the time
of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such Business Combination;




(c) The approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or
dissolution of the Company;

completion of a transaction having a similar effect; or




(e) The individuals who on the date of this Agreement constitute the Board of Directors
thereafter cease to constitute at least a majority thereof; provided that any person
becoming a member of the Board of Directors subsequent to the date of this Agreement and
whose election or nomination was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the
directors who then comprised the Board of Directors immediately prior to such vote shall
be considered a member of the Board of Directors on the date of this Agreement.

date hereof and the date the Shares become vested is referred to as the “Restricted
Period.”
	 
	 	3.2.	 	If at any time Grantee fails to maintain Grantee’s status as an Eligible Person, the
balance of the Shares subject to the provisions of this Agreement which have not vested at
the time of

ownership transferred back to the Company.

RESTRICTED PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT
AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF                      BETWEEN WRIGHT MEDICAL GROUP, INC.

THE WRIGHT MEDICAL GROUP, INC. AT 5677 AIRLINE ROAD, ARLINGTON,
TENNESSEE 38002.




	5.	 	Issuance of Shares. The Shares shall be issued and held in a restricted book entry account
in the name of Grantee until expiration of the Restricted Period. Upon expiration of the
Restricted Period, the Company shall remove the restrictions of such restricted book entry
account for such Shares which have not been forfeited and with respect to which the Restricted
Period has expired (to the nearest full share) and any cash dividend or stock dividends shall
be credited to Grantee’s account with respect to such Shares and any interest thereon, if any.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its discretion, issue certificates for
Shares for which the Restricted Period has expired in the name of Holder in lieu of removing
the restrictions of such restricted book entry account.
	 
	6.	 	Stockholder Rights. During the Restricted Period, Grantee shall have all the rights and
privileges of a stockholder as to Shares, including the right to vote such Shares, except for
the right to transfer the Shares as set forth in Section 3 and Section 7 of this Agreement and
Section 10(b) of the Plan. Cash dividends and stock dividends with respect to the Shares
shall be currently paid to Grantee.
	 
	7.	 	Changes in Stock. In the event that as a result of (i) any stock dividend, stock split or
other change in the Stock, or (ii) any merger or sale of all or substantially all of the
assets or other acquisition of the Company, and by virtue of any such change Grantee shall in
Grantee’s capacity as owner of unvested shares of Stock which have been awarded to Grantee
(the “Prior Stock”) be entitled to new or additional or different shares or securities, such
new or additional or different shares or securities shall thereupon be considered unvested
Shares and shall be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to
the Prior Stock pursuant to this Agreement.
	 
	8.	 	Disability of Grantee. In the event of the Disability (as defined in the Plan) of Grantee,
any unpaid but vested Shares shall be paid to Grantee if legally competent or to a legally
designated guardian or representative if Grantee is legally incompetent.
	 
	9.	 	Death of Grantee. In the event of Grantee’s death after the vesting date but prior to the
payment of the Shares, such Shares shall be paid to Grantee’s estate or designated
beneficiary.
	 
	10.	 	Taxes. Grantee understands that Grantee will recognize income for federal and, if
applicable, state income tax purposes in an amount equal to the amount by which the fair
market value of the Shares, as of the Grant Date or vesting date, as applicable, exceeds any
consideration paid by Grantee for such Shares. Grantee shall be liable for any and all taxes,
including withholding taxes, arising out of this grant or the vesting of Shares hereunder. By
accepting the Shares, Grantee covenants to report such income in accordance with applicable
federal and state laws. To the extent that the receipt of the Shares or the end of the
Restricted Period results in income to Grantee and withholding obligations of the Company,
including federal or state withholding obligations, Grantee agrees that the Company shall
retain and instruct a registered broker(s) to sell such number of Shares necessary to satisfy
the Company’s withholding obligations, after deduction of the broker’s commission, and the
broker shall remit to the Company the cash necessary in order for the Company to satisfy its
withholding obligations. Grantee covenants to execute any such documents as are requested by
the broker of the Company in order to effectuate the sale of the Shares and payment of the tax
obligations to the Company. Grantee represents to the Company that, as of the date hereof,
Grantee

	 	 	is not aware of any material nonpublic information about the Company or the Shares.
Grantee and the Company have structured this Agreement to constitute a “binding contract”
relating to the sale of Shares pursuant to this Section, consistent with the affirmative defense
to liability under Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act under Rule 10b5-1(c) promulgated under the
Exchange Act.*






	11.	 	Governing Law. The grant of Shares and the provisions of this Agreement are governed by, and
subject to, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of law
provisions, as provided in the Plan.
	 
	 	 	For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under this grant or the Agreement, the
parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Tennessee, agree that
such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of Shelby County, Tennessee, or the federal
courts for the United States for the Western District of Tennessee, where this grant is made
and/or to be performed.
	 
	12.	 	Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any
documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. Grantee
hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in
the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or
a third party designated by the Company.
	 
	13.	 	Miscellaneous.






	 	13.1.	 	The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any shares of Stock of
the Company which have been sold or transferred in violation of any provisions set forth in
this Agreement, or (ii) to treat as owner of such shares or to accord the right to vote as
such owner or to pay dividends to any transferee to whom such shares shall have been so
transferred.
	 
	 	13.2.	 	The parties agree to execute such further instruments and to take such action as may
be reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.
	 
	 	13.3.	 	Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be
deemed effectively given upon delivery to Grantee at the address of Grantee then on file
with the Company.
	 
	 	13.4.	 	Neither the Plan nor this Agreement nor any provisions under either shall be construed
so as to grant Grantee any right to remain associated with the Company or any of its
affiliates.
	 
	 	13.5.	 	This Agreement, subject to the provisions of the Plan, constitutes the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.







 




			
	*	 	Grantee understands that the sale of Shares to satisfy tax or any
withholding obligations will be considered a sale for purposes of short-swing
liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Any profit realized in a
purchase of shares of the Company’s stock within six months of the sale may be
recovered by the Company or by a stockholder of the Company on behalf of the
Company.
