## Exhibit 10.1

**PURCHASE AGREEMENT**

**June 3, 2026<br>** 

<br> [●] (the "**Undersigned**"), for itself and on behalf of the beneficial owners listed on <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto (the "**Accounts**") for whom the Undersigned holds contractual and investment authority (each Account, as well as the Undersigned if it is selling Outstanding Notes (as defined below), referred to hereunder as a "**Holder**"), enters into this Purchase Agreement (this "**Agreement**") with CONMED Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "**Company**"), as of the date first written above, pursuant to which the Company will purchase from each Holder the Outstanding Notes held by each Holder and specified on <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto for an amount in cash equal to the Cash Consideration (as defined in <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto).

On and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

**<u>Article I</u>**: Purchase of the Existing Notes**

**Section 1.1** **<u>Purchase and Sale</u>**. On and subject to the terms set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined below), the Undersigned hereby agrees to cause each Holder to sell and deliver to the Company the aggregate principal amount of the Company's outstanding 2.250% Convertible Notes due 2027 specified for such Holder on <u>Exhibit A</u> under the heading "Purchased Notes" (such principal amount of notes, the "**Outstanding Notes**"), and in exchange therefor, the Company hereby agrees to pay to such Holder the Cash Consideration specified for such Holder on <u>Exhibit A</u>. The Outstanding Notes to be sold and delivered to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for the Cash Consideration are referred to herein as the "**Purchased Notes**." The transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the payment of the Cash Consideration and purchase and delivery of the Purchased Notes are collectively referred to herein as the "**Transactions**."

**Section 1.2** **<u>Closing</u>**. Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the applicable parties) of the conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.1</u> below, the closing of the Transactions (the "**Closing**") shall occur on June 15, 2026, or such later date as mutually agreed in writing by the parties hereto (the "**Closing Date**").

At the Closing, (a) each Holder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company all right, title and interest in and to its Purchased Notes (and no other consideration) free and clear of any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest, encumbrance, title retention agreement, option, equity or other adverse claim thereto (collectively, "**Liens**"), together with any documents of conveyance or transfer that the Company may deem necessary or desirable to transfer to and confirm in the Company all right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Notes free and clear of any Liens, and (b) the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Holder the Cash Consideration specified for such Holder on <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto, as specified on, and pursuant to the wire instructions provided by each Holder on, <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto, which <u>Exhibit B</u> may be provided within one (1) Business Day of the date set forth at the top of this Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any delay in the Closing, the Company will not make any separate cash payment pursuant to this Agreement in respect of interest, if any, accrued and unpaid from the Closing Date for the Purchased Notes. Instead, such amounts will be deemed to be paid by the purchase by the Company of the Purchased Notes for the Cash Consideration. Delivery of the Purchased Notes shall be effected via one-sided Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) pursuant to the instructions set forth in <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto (it being understood that posting such request on any date before the Closing Date will result in such request expiring unaccepted at the close of business on such date, and such Holder will need to repost such withdrawal request on the Closing Date). All questions as to the form

of all documents and the validity and acceptance of the Purchased Notes will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding.

**<u>Article II</u>**: Covenants, Representations and Warranties of the Holders**

The Undersigned hereby covenants as follows, and makes the following representations and warranties on its own behalf and where specified below, on behalf of each Holder, each of which is and shall be true and correct on the date hereof and at the Closing, and all such covenants, representations and warranties shall survive the Closing.

**Section 2.1** **<u>Power and Authorization</u>.** Each of the Undersigned and each Holder is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. The Undersigned has the power, authority and capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder, and to consummate the Transactions. If the Undersigned is executing this Agreement on behalf of Accounts, (a) the Undersigned has all requisite discretionary and contractual authority to enter into this Agreement on behalf of, and bind, each Account, and (b) <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto is a true, correct and complete list of (i) the name of each Account, and (ii) the principal amount of such Account's Outstanding Notes.

**Section 2.2** **<u>Valid and Enforceable Agreement; No Violations</u>.** This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Undersigned and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Undersigned and each Holder, enforceable against the Undersigned and each Holder in accordance with its terms, except that such enforcement may be subject to (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (b) general principles of equity, whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity (the exceptions described in the preceding clauses (a) and (b), the "**Enforceability Exceptions**"). This Agreement and consummation of the Transactions will not violate, conflict with or result in a breach of or default under (i) the Undersigned's or the applicable Holder's organizational documents (or any similar documents governing each Account), (ii) any agreement or instrument to which the Undersigned or the applicable Holder is a party or by which the Undersigned or the applicable Holder or any of their respective assets are bound, or (iii) any laws, regulations or governmental or judicial decrees, injunctions or orders applicable to the Undersigned or the applicable Holder, except in the case of clause (iii), where such violations, conflicts, breaches or defaults would not affect the Undersigned's or the applicable Holder's ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of, or with, any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the consummation by each of the Holders of the Transactions.

**Section 2.3** **<u>Title to the Purchased Notes</u>.** (a) Each Holder is the sole beneficial owner and, at the Closing, will be the sole legal and beneficial owner of the Purchased Notes set forth opposite its name on <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto; (b) each Holder has good, valid and marketable title to its Purchased Notes, free and clear of any Liens (other than pledges or security interests that such Holder may have created in favor of a prime broker under and in accordance with its prime brokerage agreement with such broker, which will be terminated prior to Closing); (c) each Holder has not, in whole or in part, except as described in the preceding clause (b), (i) assigned, transferred, hypothecated, pledged, exchanged or otherwise disposed of any of its Purchased Notes or its rights, title or interest in or to its Purchased Notes or (ii) given any person or entity (other than the Undersigned) any transfer order, power of attorney or other authority of any nature whatsoever with respect to its Purchased Notes; and (d) upon each Holder's delivery of its Purchased Notes to the Company pursuant to the Transactions, such Purchased Notes shall be free and clear of all Liens, and the Company will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title to such Purchased Notes.

**Section 2.4** **<u>Full Satisfaction of Obligations under the Notes</u>**. Each Holder acknowledges that upon payment of the Cash Consideration to the Holder, the obligations of the Company to the Holder under and with respect to the Purchased Notes will have been satisfied in full.

**Section 2.5** **<u>Adequate Information; No Reliance; No Pressure</u>.** Each of the Undersigned and Holders acknowledges and agrees that (a) it has been furnished with all materials it considers relevant to making an investment decision to enter into the Purchase and has had the opportunity to review (and has carefully reviewed) (i) the Company's filings and submissions with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, all information filed or furnished pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (collectively, the "**Public Filings**") and (ii) this Agreement (including the exhibits hereto) (collectively, the "**Materials**"), (b) it has had a full opportunity to ask questions of the Company concerning the Company, its business, operations, financial performance, financial condition and prospects, and the terms and conditions of the Purchase, and to obtain from the Company any information that it considers necessary in making an informed decision with respect to the Purchase and to verify the accuracy of the information set forth in the Public Filings and the other Materials, (c) it has had the opportunity to consult with its accounting, tax, financial and legal advisors to be able to evaluate the risks involved in the Purchase and to make an informed decision with respect to the Purchase, (d) it is experienced, sophisticated and knowledgeable in the trading of securities and is able to fend for itself in the Purchase, (e) it is not relying, and has not relied, upon any statement, advice (whether accounting, tax, financial, legal or other), representation or warranty made by the Company or any of its affiliates or representatives or any other entity or person, including J. Wood Capital Advisors LLC ("**J. Wood Capital Advisors**"), except for the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, (f) it had a sufficient amount of time to consider whether to participate in the Purchase and that neither the Company nor J. Wood Capital Advisors has placed any pressure on it to respond to the opportunity to participate in the Purchase, (g) the terms of the Purchase are the result of bilateral negotiations between the parties, and each of the Undersigned and Holders was given a meaningful opportunity to negotiate the terms of the Purchase, (h) each Holder has evaluated the tax and other consequences of the Transactions with its tax, accounting or legal advisors, and (i) the Company is not acting as a fiduciary or financial or investment advisor to the Undersigned or any Holder. Each of the Undersigned and the Holders further acknowledges that it understands that the Company intends to pay J. Wood Capital Advisors a fee in respect of the Transactions.

**Section 2.6 <u>Disclosure</u>**. The Undersigned acknowledges and agrees that it and each Holder has not disclosed, and will not disclose, to any third party any information regarding the Company or the Transactions, and that it has not transacted, and will not transact in any securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, any hedging transactions, from the time the Holder was first contacted by the Company or the J. Wood Capital Advisors with respect to the Transactions until after the confidential information (as described in the confirmatory email received by the Holder from J. Wood Capital Advisors (the "**Wall Cross Email**")) is made public.

**Section 2.7** **<u>Withholding; Required Tax Forms</u>.** The Undersigned agrees that it shall obtain from each Holder and deliver to the Company a complete and accurate IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate. The Undersigned acknowledges that, if a Holder is a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the Company must be provided with a correct taxpayer identification number (generally, a person's social security or federal employer identification number) and certain other information on a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 for the Holder, which is provided on <u>Exhibit C</u> attached to this Purchase Agreement. The Undersigned further acknowledges that, if a Holder is not a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the Company must be provided with the appropriate properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8, attesting to that non-U.S. Holder's foreign status and certain other information, including information establishing an exemption from withholding under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code. The Undersigned further

acknowledges that any Holder may be subject to 30% U.S. federal withholding or 24% U.S. federal backup withholding on certain payments or deliveries made to such Holder unless such Holder properly establishes an exemption from, or a reduced rate of, such withholding or backup withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Undersigned on behalf of each Holder hereby represents that it is able to receive any Purchase Cash hereunder (including any amounts attributable to accrued and unpaid interest) without any U.S. withholding tax and is entitled to provide U.S. tax forms and required attachments indicating the same (including, where relevant, any certifications indicating that the Holder fulfills the requirements of "portfolio interest exemption" as indicated in <u>Exhibit C</u>) and agrees to hold the Company and its agents harmless for the breach of such representation.

**Section 2.8** **<u>Further Action</u>.** The Undersigned agrees that the Undersigned shall and shall cause each Holder to promptly execute and deliver such further agreements and instruments and take such further actions, as the Company may reasonably request in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

The Undersigned agrees to furnish any additional information regarding the Undersigned or any Holder reasonably requested by the Company or any of its affiliates to assure compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws in connection with the Purchase.

**Section 3.1** **<u>Power and Authorization</u>**. The Company is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and has the power, authority and capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder, and to consummate the Transactions.

**Section 3.2** **<u>Valid and Enforceable Agreements; No Violations</u>**. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except that such enforcement may be subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.

**EXHIBIT C**

**Tax Matters**

<u>Backup Withholding Tax</u>

Under U.S. federal income tax law, a Holder who sells Outstanding Notes for Cash Considerations generally must provide such Holder's correct taxpayer identification number ("**TIN**") on IRS Form W-9 (attached hereto) or otherwise establish a basis for exemption from backup withholding. A TIN is generally an individual holder's social security number or a Holder's employer identification number. If the correct TIN is not provided, the Holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In addition, certain payments made to holders may be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax (currently set at 24% of the payment). If a Holder is required to provide a TIN but does not have a TIN, the Holder should consult its tax advisor regarding how to obtain a TIN. Certain holders are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. Non-U.S. Holders generally may establish their status as exempt recipients from backup withholding by submitting a properly completed applicable IRS Form W-8 (available from the Company or the IRS at <u>www.irs.gov</u>), signed, under penalties of perjury, attesting to such Non-U.S. Holder's exempt foreign status. U.S. backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding how to complete the appropriate forms and to determine whether they are exempt from backup withholding or other withholding taxes.

<u>Portfolio Interest Exemption (for Holders That Are Not U.S. Persons for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes)</u>

Under U.S. federal income tax law, a Holder that sells Outstanding Notes for Cash Consideration and is otherwise not eligible to provide an IRS Form W-9 must claim an exemption from U.S. withholding tax on payments or deliveries attributable to accrued and unpaid interest. Any Holder that claims such an exemption under the so-called "portfolio interest exemption" is hereby deemed to represent and certify (along with providing the applicable IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E) as set forth in Section C below. However, if the Holder is an intermediary, a foreign partnership or other flow-through entity, then the adjustments shown below in Section A and Section B below will be made to the representations in Section C:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The following representation will be provided as applied to the Holder:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· record ownership under Clause I.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The following representations will be provided as applied to the partners, members or beneficial owners claiming the portfolio interest
exemption:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· beneficial ownership under Clause I,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the status in Clause III, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the status in Clause IV.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. The following representation will be provided as applied to the Holder as well as the partners, members:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I. It is the sole record and beneficial owner of the Outstanding Notes in respect of which it is providing this certification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;II. It is not a "bank" (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;III. It is not a "10-percent shareholder" of the Company (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) or Section 871(h)(3)(B)
of the Code).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IV. It is not a "controlled foreign corporation" (as such term is described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code) related to
the Company (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code).
