As previously disclosed, on July 20, 2025, ZimVie Inc. (the "<u>Company</u>") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>") with Zamboni Parent Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Parent</u>"), and Zamboni MergerCo Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("<u>MergerCo</u>"), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, MergerCo will merge with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "<u>Merger</u>"). Consummation of the Merger is subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders and other customary closing conditions. On September 2, 2025, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement (the "<u>Proxy Statement</u>") with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("<u>SEC</u>") in connection with the Merger.

Since the initial filing of the Proxy Statement, two complaints have been filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, by purported Company stockholders against the Company and the members of the board of directors of the Company (the "<u>Board</u>") in connection with the Merger: *Robert Williams v. ZimVie Inc., et al.*, No. 655560/2025 (N.Y. Sup. Ct.) (filed September 17, 2025) and *Richard McDaniels v. ZimVie Inc., et al.*, No. 655584/2025 (N.Y. Sup. Ct.) (filed September 18, 2025) (collectively, the "<u>New York Stockholder Litigation</u>"). In addition, one complaint has been filed in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida, by a purported Company stockholder against, among others, the Company, members of the Board, Parent and MergerCo in connection with the Merger: *Martin Siegel v. Asar, et al.*, No. 50-2025-CA-009567 (Fla. Cir. Ct.) (filed September 17, 2025) (the "<u>Florida Stockholder Litigation</u>" and, together with the New York Stockholder Litigation, the "<u>Stockholder Litigation</u>"). Each of the complaints filed in the New York Stockholder Litigation includes allegations that, among other things, the Proxy Statement omitted certain material information, asserting claims for negligent misrepresentation and concealment in violation of New York common law and negligence in violation of New York common law. The complaint filed in the Florida Stockholder Litigation includes allegations that, among other things, the Proxy Statement omitted certain material information, asserting claims for violation of the New Jersey Uniform Securities Law (1997) and negligent misrepresentation and concealment and negligence in violation of Florida and New Jersey common law. Additionally, attorneys representing several purported Company stockholders have sent demand letters alleging similar insufficiencies in the disclosures in the Proxy Statement (such letters, the "<u>Demand Letters</u>" and, together with the Stockholder Litigation, the "<u>Litigation Matters</u>").

The complaints filed in the Stockholder Litigation seek various remedies, which include, among other things: (i) enjoining the defendants from proceeding with the proposed Merger unless and until the defendants disclose certain allegedly material information that was allegedly omitted from the Proxy Statement; (ii) enjoining or rescinding the closing of the stockholders vote concerning the proposed Merger until trial or until the defendants make corrective and complete disclosure or, in the event that the proposed Merger is consummated, rescinding it or awarding the plaintiff actual and punitive damages; (iii) awarding the plaintiffs the costs and disbursements of the action, including reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees and expenses; (iv) declaring that the defendants violated the New Jersey Uniform Securities Law (1997), that the defendants negligently misrepresented, concealed and omitted facts in the Proxy Statement or that the defendants were negligent and failed to exercise reasonable care or competence in communicating or failing to communicate truthfully and completely in the Proxy Statement, as applicable; and (v) granting such other and further relief as the court may deem just and proper.

It is possible that additional, similar complaints may be filed, that the complaints described above may be amended or that additional demand letters will be received by the Company. If this occurs, the Company does not intend to announce the filing or receipt of each additional, similar complaint or demand letter or any amended complaint unless required by law.

The Company believes that the allegations contained in the Litigation Matters are without merit and that no further disclosures are required to supplement the Proxy Statement under applicable laws. However, in order to avoid the risk of the Litigation Matters delaying or adversely affecting the Merger and to minimize the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent in litigation, and without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, the Company has determined to voluntarily make the following supplemental disclosures to the Proxy Statement as described in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein. To the contrary, the Company specifically denies all allegations in the Litigation Matters and that any additional disclosure was or is required.

These supplemental disclosures will not change the consideration to be paid to the Company stockholders in connection with the Merger or the timing of the special meeting of Company stockholders (the "<u>Special Meeting</u>") to be held on October 10, 2025, at 7:00 a.m., Mountain Time, at the Westin Denver International Airport located at 8300 Peña Blvd, Denver, CO 80249 (unless the Special Meeting is adjourned or postponed). **The Board continues to unanimously recommend that you vote "FOR" the proposals to be voted on at the Special Meeting described in the Proxy Statement.**

------

***<u>Supplemental Disclosures to the Proxy Statement in Connection with the Litigation Matters</u>***

The following disclosures in this Current Report on Form 8-K supplement the disclosures contained in the Proxy Statement and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures contained in the Proxy Statement, which in turn should be read in its entirety. All page references are to the Proxy Statement, and terms used below, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Proxy Statement.

**The disclosure in the section entitled "The Merger" under the heading "Background of the Merger", beginning on page 35 of the Proxy Statement, is hereby amended as follows:** 

*The third sentence of the third paragraph on page 44 is deleted, and the eighth paragraph on page 42 is amended and supplemented by adding the following sentence to the end of such paragraph:* 

Centerview provided to the Company an updated customary disclosure letter in respect of certain relationships between Centerview and its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company, ARCHIMED and certain of ARCHIMED's affiliates, on the other hand, which did not identify (i) any fee-paying engagements with ARCHIMED or any affiliated investment funds or portfolio companies of ARCHIMED since January 1, 2023, or (ii) any ownership of securities of the Company or ARCHIMED or any affiliated investment funds or portfolio companies of ARCHIMED.

**The disclosure in the section entitled "The Merger" under the heading "Opinion of the Company's Financial Advisor", beginning on page 54 of the Proxy Statement, is hereby amended as follows:**

Centerview applied this range of EV/2025E Adj. EBITDA Trading Multiples to the Company's estimated calendar year 2025 Adj. EBITDA of $72 million, as set forth in the Forecasts, and added to it the Company's cash and cash equivalents of $70 million and $68 million book value of the promissory note issued to the Company in connection with the sale of the Company's spine business and subtracted from it the Company's debt of $221 million, in each case, as of June 30, 2025 and as set forth in the Internal Data, and divided by the number of fully diluted outstanding shares of Company common stock <u>of approximately 30.5 million</u> (calculated using the treasury stock method and taking into account outstanding options, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, and employee stock purchase plan shares) as of July 14, 2025 and as set forth in the Internal Data, resulting in an implied per share equity value range for the shares of Company common stock of approximately $14.00 to $18.75, rounded to the nearest $0.25. Centerview then compared this range to the merger consideration of $19.00 per share of Company common stock in cash, without interest, proposed to be paid to the holders of shares of Company common stock (other than Excluded Shares) pursuant to the merger agreement.

*The second paragraph on page 59, under the sub-heading "—Selected Precedent Transaction Analysis", is amended and supplemented below by adding the underlined text to such paragraph:* 

Centerview applied this reference range of TV/LTM Adj. EBITDA Multiples to the Company's LTM Adj. EBITDA of $67 million, as of June 30, 2025 and as set forth in the Internal Data, and added to it the Company's cash and cash equivalents of $70 million and $68 million book value of the promissory note issued to the Company in connection with the sale of the Company's spine business and subtracted from it the Company's debt of $221 million, in each case, as of June 30, 2025 and as set forth in the Internal Data, and divided by the number of fully diluted outstanding shares of Company common stock <u>of approximately 30.5 million</u> (calculated using the treasury stock method and taking into account outstanding options, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, and employee stock purchase plan shares) as of July 14, 2025 and as set forth in the Internal Data, resulting in an implied per share equity value range for the shares of Company common stock of approximately $17.00 to $21.25, rounded to the nearest $0.25. Centerview then compared this range to the merger consideration of $19.00 in cash, without interest, proposed to be paid to the holders of shares of Company common stock (other than Excluded Shares) pursuant to the merger agreement.

*The second paragraph under the sub-heading "—Discounted Cash Flow Analysis" on page 59 is amended and supplemented below by adding the underlined text to such paragraph:* 

In performing this analysis, Centerview calculated a range of equity values for the shares of Company common stock by (a) discounting to present value as of June 30, 2025, using discount rates ranging from 11.5% to 13.5% (based on Centerview's analysis of the Company's weighted average cost of capital <u>(which was calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model and based on considerations that Centerview deemed relevant in its professional judgment and experience, taking into account certain metrics including target capital structure, levered and unlevered betas for comparable group companies, tax rates, market risk and size premia))</u> and using a mid-year convention: (i) the forecasted risk-adjusted, after-tax unlevered free cash flows of the Company over the period beginning on July 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2030, utilized by Centerview based on the Forecasts and (ii) a range of implied terminal values of the Company calculated by Centerview by applying a range of perpetuity growth rates of 2.5% to 3.5% <u>(which perpetuity growth rates were based on considerations that Centerview deemed relevant in its professional judgment and experience)</u> and (b) adding to the foregoing results the Company's cash and cash equivalents of $70 million and $68 million book value of the promissory note issued to the Company in connection with the sale of the Company's spine business and subtracting from the foregoing results the Company's debt of $221 million, in each case, as of June 30, 2025 and as set forth in the Internal Data.

*The first bullet following the first paragraph under the sub-heading "—Other Facts" on page 60 is amended and supplemented below by deleting the stricken text and adding the underlined text to such bullet:* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Precedent Premia Paid Analysis*. Centerview performed an analysis of premia paid in certain <u>53</u> transactions involving publicly traded companies occurring since 2020, each with a transaction value between $500 million and $1.5 billion, for which
premium data was available and which Centerview deemed relevant in its professional judgment. The premia in this analysis were calculated by comparing the per share acquisition price in each transaction to the closing price of the target
company's common stock for the date one day prior to the date on which the trading price of the target's common stock was perceived to be affected by a potential transaction <u>and indicated a median and mean premium, respectively, of 39% and 45%</u>. Based on the analysis above and other considerations that Centerview deemed relevant in its experience and professional judgment, Centerview applied a premium range of 25% to 65%
(representing the 25th percentile and the 75th percentile, respectively, of premia paid in such transactions) to the Company's closing share price on July 18, 2025 (the last trading day before the public announcement of the Transaction)
of $8.44, which resulted in an implied price range of approximately $10.50 to $14.00 per share of Company common stock, rounded to the nearest $0.25.

*The third bullet following the first paragraph under the sub-heading "—Other Facts" on page 60 is amended and supplemented below by adding the underlined text to such bullet:* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Analyst Price Target Analysis*. Centerview reviewed stock price targets for the shares of Company common
stock in four publicly available Wall Street research analyst reports, which indicated low and high stock price targets for the shares of Company common stock ranging from $9.00 to $16.00 per share of Company common stock and <u>had a median price target of $10.00 per share of Company common stock</u>.

------

**The disclosure in the section entitled "The Merger" under the heading "Interests of the Company's Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger", beginning on page 69 of the Proxy Statement, is hereby amended as follows:** 

*The text on page 71 is amended and supplemented by adding the following sub-section after the end of the fourth paragraph on page 71:* 

***New Management Arrangements***

As of the date of this proxy statement, no other new employment, equity contribution or other agreements between any executive officer or director of the Company, on the one hand, and ARCHIMED or its affiliates, on the other hand, have been established or otherwise negotiated relating to employment, compensation or benefits of executive officers or directors of the Company following the consummation of the Merger. Prior to and following the closing of the Merger, however, certain of our executive officers may have discussions with, and may enter into agreements with, ARCHIMED, the surviving corporation or their affiliates regarding employment with or providing consultation services to ARCHIMED, the surviving corporation or their affiliates or the right to participate in the equity of the surviving corporation or one or more of its affiliates to be effective following the closing of the Merger.
