Exhibit 99.1

Exactech and TPG Capital Announce Amended Merger Agreement Providing for Increase in Merger Consideration to $49.25 per share.

• Merger with TPG Capital Now Valued at $737 Million

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Gainesville, Florida – December 4, 2017 – Exactech, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXAC), a leading developer and producer of orthopaedic implant devices and surgical instrumentation for extremities and large joints, announced today that it has entered into an amendment to its merger agreement with TPG Capital and certain of its affiliates which was previously announced on October 23, 2017. Pursuant to the amended merger agreement, the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (other than certain shares held by the Company’s founders and certain management shareholders) will be converted into the right to receive $49.25 per share in cash. This represents an increase of approximately 17.3% over the $42.00 of per share merger consideration previously agreed to by Exactech and TPG Capital. TPG Capital has also increased its equity financing commitment to $737 million for purposes of consummating the merger.

Pursuant to a rollover and voting support agreement entered into at the time of the amended merger agreement, the Company’s founders, CEO and certain other management shareholders have agreed with TPG to exchange a portion of their shares in the transaction, representing approximately 18.8% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, for new equity securities in the post-closing ownership of the Company at a valuation equal to or less than $49.25 per share. Such founding and management shareholders have previously agreed to vote all of their shares for the approval of the amended merger agreement.

Exactech’s Board has approved the amended merger agreement with TPG and has determined that it is advisable, fair to and in the best interests of Exactech and its shareholders. Exactech’s Board hereby recommends to Exactech’s shareholders that they vote to approve the merger agreement and the merger with TPG.

TPG has arranged fully committed equity financing for the transaction and there is no financing condition to consummation of the merger with the Company. Early termination of the statutory waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act was obtained on November 17, 2017 and, accordingly, there are no anti-competition or other regulatory approvals needed to consummate the merger with TPG Capital’s affiliate. The merger is expected to close during the first quarter of 2018, subject to customary closing conditions.
