[Address redacted]

Dear Heather,

We are pleased to offer you the position of General Counsel, NewCo (“NewCo”), a corporation to be formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of Zimmer Biomet (the “Company”) in anticipation of the spin-off of certain Company’s businesses, reporting to me. In this position, you will be paid a gross annual base salary of $340,000 in bi-weekly installments and your salary grade will be Z06. Your position is exempt, as such, your annual salary is intended to compensate you for all hours worked and you will not be eligible to receive overtime pay. Your start date is June 28, 2021.

Neither this letter nor any other written or oral statement by the Company or NewCo, including any policy manual or handbook, creates a contract of employment, express or implied, or a guarantee of employment for any specific time period. At all times, your employment will be at will, meaning either you or Zimmer Biomet (or NewCo following the spin transaction) may terminate your employment for any reason and at any time, with or without notice.

Annual Merit Adjustment

Beginning in 2022, you will be eligible for Zimmer Biomet’s annual merit review process which involves possible base pay adjustments consistent with your job performance until such time that NewCo is established as a separate legal entity; at that time, you will be eligible for NewCo’s annual merit review process.

Performance Incentive Plan

You will be eligible to earn an annual bonus under the Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. Non-Executive Performance Incentive Plan (“Plan”), subject to the terms of that Plan, which may be changed by the Company in its sole discretion. Your current target bonus in this position is 40% of your eligible earnings for the 2021 bonus year. The bonus that you may earn under the Plan may be more or less than this target percentage, depending on actual year-end results for the established performance measures, and the application of applicable modifiers, if any. Annual bonuses under the Plan are paid by March 15^th of the year following the performance year. You generally must remain employed by Zimmer Biomet at the time of bonus payout to earn the bonus; however, once NewCo is established, you will be eligible to earn an annual bonus under the new entity’s Performance Incentive Plan.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

Based on your performance, you may be eligible to receive annual Zimmer Biomet stock option grants or other equity awards beginning in 2022 at the discretion of the Compensation and Management Development Committee (“Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). These grants provide opportunities for longterm compensation and ownership of the Company and are subject to the terms of the applicable grant award agreements and stock incentive plan. For 2022, your estimated LTI grant date fair value in this role will be approximately $400,000. We anticipate the grant date of the 2022 award will be in or around February/March 2022, subject to the Committee’s approval. Once NewCo is established, you may be eligible to receive stock option grants or other equity awards in respect of NewCo stock after NewCo is spun off.

NewCo Change In Control (“CIC”) Severance Agreement and Executive Severance Plan

It is expected that you will be a covered participant in NewCo’s CIC Severance Agreement and Executive Severance Plan once established at the separation of Zimmer Biomet and NewCo. Generally, the expected payment under the CIC Severance Agreement for a qualifying termination by NewCo without cause or by you for good reason following a CIC of NewCo is expected to be two times your annual base salary and bonus target. Additionally, your expected payment under the Executive Severance Plan, for qualifying terminations prior to a CIC, is expected to be the sum of your final base salary and final target bonus. There would be no duplication of benefits provided under the CIC Severance Agreement and the Executive Severance Plan or otherwise.

Relocation Assistance

Zimmer Biomet (or NewCo following the spin transaction) will assist you with your relocation to the Boulder, Colorado area by paying for reasonable moving expenses incurred within 18 months from the start of your position, in accordance with our Relocation Policy for similarly-situated executives.

Mileage Reimbursement

In accordance with Zimmer Biomet policies, you will be reimbursed for business mileage at the rate determined by the IRS from time to time or at any alternative rate required by law. Also and unless otherwise required by law, Zimmer Biomet will not reimburse you for gas, maintenance or repairs separately from this mileage reimbursement and this mileage reimbursement will not be eligible for any benefits and/or compensation plan purposes. This mileage reimbursement is tied to your position, so if you change positions within the Company you may become ineligible for the mileage reimbursement.

Repayment Obligation/Company’s Right to Offset

If you leave the Company, you agree that you will be required to repay any amounts you may owe the Company as of your last day of employment. You also agree that the Company, to the extent permitted by law, will be able to deduct and offset any amounts you owe from or against any payments to be made to you, including but not limited to payments for wages, bonuses, expenses, or vacation pay and you agree to reimburse the Company for any remaining balance owed after such deduction or offset. Finally, you agree to execute any agreement presented by Zimmer Biomet related to your repayment obligation.
