PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS—SUBJECT TO COMPLETION DATED MAY 8, 2015

LOGO

May , 2015

Dear Shareholders:

The board of directors of Wright Medical Group, Inc. and the board of directors of Tornier N.V. have each unanimously approved a merger of equals. We believe that the proposed merger brings together two companies with complementary product offerings, reputations for operating excellence and talented employees. The merger will create a larger, premier extremities-biologics company with leading technologies and expanded product offerings. Upon completion of the merger, the combined company will be named Wright Medical Group N.V. and organized under the laws of the Netherlands.

The combination will be effected by Wright and Tornier under an agreement and plan of merger dated as of October 27, 2014 between Wright and Tornier, pursuant to which a newly created indirect subsidiary of Tornier will merge with and into Wright, with Wright continuing as the surviving corporation and wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Tornier.

In the merger, each Wright share will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 ordinary shares of Tornier. This exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted to reflect share price changes prior to the closing of the merger. Based on the closing price of Tornier ordinary shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on October 24, 2014, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement of the merger agreement, the exchange rate implies a per share value for Tornier that represents a 28% premium to Tornier’s closing share price. Tornier shareholders will continue to own their existing Tornier ordinary shares. Upon completion of the merger, Wright shareholders will own approximately 52% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis and Tornier shareholders will own approximately 48%. Based on the number of Wright and Tornier shares outstanding as of May 5, 2015, we expect that the total number of Tornier ordinary shares to be issued in connection with the merger is approximately 53.0 million.

Tornier ordinary shares are currently traded on NASDAQ under the symbol “TRNX,” and Wright shares are currently traded on NASDAQ under the symbol “WMGI.” In connection with the closing of the merger, Wright shares will be delisted from NASDAQ and deregistered under the federal securities laws, and ordinary shares of the combined company will trade under the symbol “WMGI.”

We cannot complete the merger unless the Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and the other related proposals being submitted to the Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders. Your vote is very important, regardless of the number of shares you own. Whether or not you plan to attend the Wright or Tornier meetings in person, please vote your shares as promptly as possible so that your shares may be represented and voted at your meeting . If you are a Wright shareholder, please note that a failure to vote your Wright shares has the same effect as a vote against the adoption of the merger agreement and the approval of the merger. For both Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders, please note that a failure to vote your shares or return your proxy card may result in a failure to establish a quorum for the Wright special meeting or the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

After careful consideration, the boards of directors of Wright and Tornier have unanimously approved the merger agreement and the merger. The Wright board of directors unanimously recommends that Wright shareholders vote “FOR” each of the proposals being submitted to a vote of the Wright shareholders at the Wright special meeting. The Tornier board of directors unanimously recommends that Tornier shareholders vote “FOR” each of the proposals being submitted to a vote of the Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

The obligations of Wright and Tornier to complete the merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions in the merger agreement. Additional information about Wright, Tornier and the merger is contained in the accompanying joint proxy statement/prospectus. You should read the entire joint proxy statement/prospectus carefully. In particular, we urge you to read the information under “ Risk Factors ” beginning on page 28.

We thank you for your consideration and continued support.

NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON JUNE 18, 2015

MERGER PROPOSAL—YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

To the shareholders of Wright Medical Group, Inc.:

You are cordially invited to attend a special meeting of shareholders of Wright Medical Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, to be held at Wright’s corporate headquarters, located at 1023 Cherry Road, Memphis, Tennessee 38117, on June 18, 2015, at 10:00 a.m., Central Time. The purpose of the meeting shall be to consider and vote upon the following matters:

to adopt the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of October 27, 2014, among Wright, Tornier N.V., Trooper Holdings Inc. and Trooper Merger Sub Inc., a copy of which is attached as Annex A to the joint proxy statement/prospectus accompanying this notice, and approve the merger of Trooper Merger Sub Inc. with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier N.V.;

to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the proposed merger with Tornier as disclosed in the accompanying joint proxy statement/prospectus pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission;

to approve any motion to adjourn the special meeting, or any adjournment thereof, to another time or place if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby; and

to transact such other business as may properly come before the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

THE WRIGHT BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT WRIGHT SHAREHOLDERS

VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE PROPOSALS.

The above matters, the merger agreement and the proposed merger are described in detail in the accompanying joint proxy statement/prospectus. Please read the joint proxy statement/prospectus carefully in deciding how to vote.

The record date for the Wright special meeting is May 7, 2015. Only holders of record of Wright shares at the close of business on the record date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Wright special meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof. A complete list of such Wright shareholders will be available for examination by any such shareholder at Wright’s principal executive offices at 1023 Cherry Road, Memphis, Tennessee 38117, for a period of ten days prior to the Wright special meeting and on the day of the Wright special meeting.

Adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the proposed merger by Wright shareholders is a condition to the merger and requires the affirmative vote, in person or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the Wright shares outstanding and entitled to vote thereon. Therefore, your vote is very important. Your failure to

vote your shares will have the same effect as a vote “against” the adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the proposed merger. Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, please promptly vote your Wright shares by calling the toll-free number found on your proxy card, accessing the internet site found on your proxy card, or by marking, dating, signing and returning all proxy cards you receive. By providing your proxy, you do not restrict your right to vote in person at the Wright special meeting. If your Wright shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other fiduciary, please follow the instructions on the voting instruction form furnished by the record holder.

Do not send any Wright share certificates at this time. If we complete the merger, we will notify you of the procedures for exchanging your share certificates for ordinary shares of the combined company.

Tornier N.V.

Prins Bernhardplein 200

1097 JB Amsterdam

The Netherlands

NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

To Be Held On June 18, 2015

To the shareholders of Tornier N.V.:

An extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of Tornier N.V. will be held on June 18, 2015, beginning at 9:30 a.m. Central European Time, at its principal executive office located at Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

The agenda for the extraordinary general meeting is as follows:

opening;

to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of October 27, 2014, among Tornier, Trooper Holdings Inc., Trooper Merger Sub Inc. and Wright Medical Group, Inc., a copy of which is attached as Annex A to the joint proxy statement/prospectus accompanying this notice, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger and the issuance of new ordinary shares in the capital of Tornier in connection with the merger pursuant to the existing designation of the Tornier board of directors;

to consider and vote upon an advisory non-binding proposal to approve specified compensatory arrangements between Tornier and its named executive officers relating to the proposed merger with Wright, as disclosed in the accompanying joint proxy statement/prospectus pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission;

to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend Tornier’s articles of association to change the company name to Wright Medical Group N.V., effective as of the effective time of the proposed merger with Wright;

to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend Tornier’s articles of association to increase the authorized capital to €9,600,000 and the number of authorized Tornier ordinary shares to 320 million, effective as of the effective time of the proposed merger with Wright;

to consider and vote upon a proposal to grant discharge to certain Tornier board members resigning effective as of the effective time of the proposed merger with Wright;

to consider and vote upon a proposal to appoint Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry as executive directors and the following eight individuals as non-executive directors: Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman, in each case effective as of the effective time of the proposed merger with Wright, and to serve until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or, in each case, until the director’s earlier death, resignation or removal;

to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Wright Medical Group N.V. amended and restated 2010 incentive plan, including approval of the increase in the number of Tornier ordinary shares issuable under the plan, effective as of the effective time of the proposed merger with Wright; and

closing.

Many of the agenda matters are presented to the extraordinary general meeting of Tornier shareholders as a result of Tornier being organized under the laws of the Netherlands. Several matters that are within the authority

of the directors under most U.S. state corporate laws require shareholder approval under Dutch law. Additionally, Dutch governance provisions require certain discussion topics for general meetings of shareholders that are not voted on.

The Tornier board of directors has determined that all holders of record of Tornier ordinary shares as of the close of business on May 21, 2015, according to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, Tornier’s registrar and transfer agent, or such shareholders’ proxies, are entitled to notice of and to attend and vote at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. If you wish to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, however, you must notify the Tornier board of directors of your intention to do so no later than June 12, 2015, by submitting your name and number of Tornier ordinary shares beneficially owned to: Kevin M. Klemz, Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, Tornier N.V., Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands. If you own Tornier ordinary shares through a broker, such shares are often referred to as held in “street name,” and you, as the beneficial owner of those shares, do not appear in Tornier’s share register. If you own your Tornier ordinary shares through a broker and you wish to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, you must notify the Tornier board of directors of your intention to do so no later than June 12, 2015 and also provide Tornier with appropriate evidence of ownership of and authority to vote the shares no later than June 12, 2015. Access to the Tornier extraordinary general meeting is permitted only after verification of personal identification.

It is important that your Tornier ordinary shares be represented at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, regardless of the number of shares you hold and whether or not you plan to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting in person . Regardless of whether you plan to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, you are encouraged to exercise your right to vote by following the instructions for voting on the proxy card you received for the meeting and by completing, signing, dating and returning your proxy card or voting by internet or telephone as described in the accompanying joint proxy statement/prospectus before the closing of those voting facilities at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 16, 2015. If you attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting and prefer to vote in person, you may withdraw your proxy at that time.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER AND MEETINGS

Set forth below are questions that you, as a Wright shareholder or a Tornier shareholder, may have regarding the merger and the other matters to be considered at the special meeting of shareholders of Wright or the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of Tornier and the answers to those questions. Wright and Tornier urge you to read carefully the remainder of this joint proxy statement/prospectus because the information in this section does not provide all the information that might be important to you with respect to the merger and the other matters to be considered at such meetings. Additional important information is also contained in the Annexes to, and the documents incorporated by reference into, this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Q:	Why am I receiving this joint proxy statement/prospectus?

Wright is soliciting a proxy from holders of Wright shares and Tornier is soliciting a proxy from holders of Tornier ordinary shares to approve a strategic business combination of Wright and Tornier and related matters. On October 27, 2014, Wright, Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub entered into a merger agreement, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier. Wright will be the surviving corporation and, through the merger, will become an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier. Upon completion of the merger, Wright shareholders will receive Tornier ordinary shares in exchange for their Wright shares.

Q:	What are the proposals on which I am being asked to vote?

A:	Wright: At the special meeting of Wright shareholders, Wright shareholders will vote upon proposals to:

•

adopt the merger agreement and approve the merger of Merger Sub with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier;

•

approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the proposed merger; and

•

adjourn the Wright special meeting, or any adjournment thereof, to another time or place if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the Wright special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby.

The Wright board of directors recommends that Wright shareholders vote their Wright shares “ FOR ” approval of each of the above proposals.

Tornier: At the extraordinary general meeting of Tornier shareholders, Tornier shareholders will vote upon proposals to:

•

approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby;

•

approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the specified compensatory arrangements between Tornier and its named executive officers relating to the proposed merger;

•

approve an amendment to Tornier’s articles of association to change its company name, effective as of the effective time of the merger;

•

approve an amendment to Tornier’s articles of association to increase its authorized capital and ordinary shares, effective as of the effective time of the merger;

•

grant discharge to certain Tornier board members resigning effective as of the effective time of the merger;

•

appoint Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry as executive directors and the following individuals as non-executive directors: Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman, in each case effective as of the effective time of the merger, and to serve until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or, in each case, until the director’s earlier death, resignation or removal; and

•

approve the Wright Medical Group N.V. amended and restated 2010 incentive plan, effective as of the effective time of the merger.

The Tornier board of directors recommends that Tornier shareholders vote their Tornier ordinary shares “ FOR ” approval of each of the above proposals.

Q:	What will I receive in the merger?

At the effective time, each Wright share will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares. In addition, as of immediately prior to the effective time, (1) each option to acquire Wright shares that is then outstanding will be (or, to the extent it is unvested, will automatically become) fully vested and exchanged for an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the option prior to the merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the merger), that number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (i) the number of Wright shares subject to the option and (ii) 1.0309, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Tornier ordinary shares, at an exercise price per Tornier ordinary share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the per share exercise price of the Wright option by 1.0309, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, (2) each Wright restricted share that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares and (3) each Wright restricted stock unit award that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions, and, at the effective time, be cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive that number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (i) the total number of Wright shares underlying the award immediately prior to the effective time and (ii) 1.0309.

No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the merger. Any Wright shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a Tornier ordinary share pursuant to the merger will be paid an amount in cash determined in accordance with the amount of their fractional share interest, instead of such fractional share.

Tornier shareholders will not receive any merger consideration and will continue to hold their Tornier ordinary shares after giving effect to the merger.

Q:	What is the value of the merger consideration?

Because Tornier will issue a fixed number of Tornier ordinary shares in exchange for each Wright share, the market value of the merger consideration that Wright shareholders will receive will depend on the price per share of Tornier ordinary shares at the effective time of the merger. That price will not be known at the time of the Wright special meeting or the Tornier extraordinary general meeting and may be less or more than the current market price or the market price at the time of the shareholder meetings. Based on the closing price on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on May , 2015, the last practicable trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the value of the 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares to be received in respect of each Wright common share was $ .

Q:	What percentage of the combined company will Wright and Tornier shareholders own following the merger?

A:	Upon consummation of the merger, the former shareholders of Wright are expected to own approximately 52% of the combined company and the pre-merger shareholders of Tornier are expected to own approximately 48%, in each case, calculated on a fully-diluted basis (using the treasury method).

Q:	When and where will the shareholder meetings be held?

A:	Wright: The Wright special meeting will be held at Wright’s corporate headquarters, located at 1023 Cherry Road, Memphis, Tennessee 38117, on June 18, 2015, at 10:00 a.m., local time.

Tornier: The Tornier extraordinary general meeting will be held at Tornier’s principal executive office located at Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on June 18, 2015, at 9:30 a.m., local time.

Q:	Who is entitled to attend the Wright and Tornier meetings?

A:	Wright : All Wright shareholders as of the record date for the Wright special meeting, or their duly appointed proxies, are invited to attend the Wright special meeting.

Tornier: All holders of Tornier ordinary shares on the record date for the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, or their duly appointed proxies, are invited to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. If a Tornier shareholder wishes to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, however, the Tornier shareholder must notify the Tornier board of directors of the Tornier shareholder’s intention to do so no later than June 12, 2015, by submitting his/her name and number of Tornier ordinary shares beneficially owned to: Kevin M. Klemz, Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, Tornier N.V., Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands. If a Tornier shareholder owns Tornier ordinary shares through a broker and wishes to attend the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, the Tornier shareholder must notify the Tornier board of directors of his/her intention to do so no later than June 12, 2015 and also provide Tornier with appropriate evidence of ownership of and authority to vote the shares no later than June 12, 2015.

Wright: Wright has fixed May 7, 2015 as the record date for the Wright special meeting. If you were a Wright shareholder as of the close of business on such date, you are entitled to vote on matters that come before the Wright special meeting. All votes made by proxy must be received (whether delivered by mail, telephone or internet) no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 17, 2015 to be counted.

Tornier: Tornier has fixed May 21, 2015 as the record date for the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

All votes made by proxy must be received (whether delivered by mail, telephone or internet) no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 16, 2015 to be counted.

Q:	How many votes do I have?

A:	Wright: You are entitled to one vote for each outstanding Wright share that you owned as of the close of business on the Wright record date. As of the close of business on the Wright record date, there were approximately 51,401,197 outstanding Wright shares.

Tornier: You are entitled to one vote for each Tornier ordinary share that you owned as of the close of business on the Tornier record date. As of the close of business on May 7, 2015, there were approximately 48,996,404 outstanding Tornier ordinary shares.

Q:	How do I vote?

A:	Wright : If you are a registered holder of Wright shares as of the close of business on the record date for the Wright special meeting, you may vote in person by attending such meeting or by proxy. You may vote in any of the following ways:

•

in person at the Wright special meeting;

•

by internet—go to www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions for internet voting as shown on your proxy card. You do not need to return your proxy card if you vote using the internet;

•

by telephone— banks and brokers call collect: (212) 929-5500; all others call toll free: (800) 322-2885 and follow the instructions. You do not need to return your proxy card if you vote by telephone; or

•

by mail— complete, sign, date and mail the proxy card in the envelope and return it as soon as possible to MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 105 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10016, or return by email at proxy@mackenziepartners.com.

All votes made by proxy must be received (whether delivered by mail, telephone or the internet) no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 17, 2015 to be counted.

If you are a beneficial owner of Wright shares held in “street name,” please follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares by properly completing, signing, dating, and returning the voting instruction form provided to you by your nominee to ensure that your shares are represented at the Wright special meeting.

Tornier: If you are a registered holder of Tornier ordinary shares as of the close of business on the record date for the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, you can vote in person by attending such or by proxy. You may vote in any of the following ways:

•

in person at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting;

•

by internet—go to www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions for internet voting shown on your proxy card. You do not need to return your proxy card if you vote using the internet;

•

by telephone—call 1-800-690-6903 in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico and follow the instructions. You do not need to return your proxy card if you vote by telephone; or

•

by mail—complete, sign, date and mail the proxy card in the envelope and return it as soon as possible.

All votes made by proxy must be received (whether delivered by mail, telephone or internet) no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 16, 2015 to be counted.

If you are a beneficial owner of Tornier ordinary shares held in “street name,” then you will have received this material from your broker or other nominee seeking your instructions as to how you wish your shares to be voted. In that case, follow the procedures specified on your broker’s or other nominee’s voting instruction form provided to you by your nominee to ensure that your shares are represented at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

Q:	My shares are held in “street name” by my broker, or I am a non-registered shareholder. Will my broker automatically vote my shares for me?

No. If your shares are held through a broker, bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of the shares held for you in what is known as “street name.” You are not the “record holder” or “registered holder” of such shares. If this is the case, this joint proxy statement/prospectus has been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee. As the beneficial owner, unless your broker, bank or other nominee has discretionary authority over your shares, you generally have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. If you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will not be voted on any proposal on which your broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary authority. This is often called a “broker non-vote.”

Please follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee so that it may vote your shares on your behalf. Please note that you may not vote shares held in street name by returning a proxy card directly to Wright or Tornier or by voting in person at your meeting unless you first provide a proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee.

If you are a Wright shareholder and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your Wright shares, your broker, bank or other nominee will not vote your shares over which they do not have discretionary authority. This broker non-vote will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, and will have no effect on

the proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger, and the proposal to adjourn the Wright special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if necessary or appropriate.

If you are a Tornier shareholder and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your Tornier ordinary shares, your broker, bank or other nominee will not vote your shares over which they do not have discretionary authority. This broker non-vote will have no effect on the proposal to approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby or the other proposals being submitted to a vote of the Tornier shareholders. In addition, this broker non-vote will not count as shares present at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting or for the purpose of determining the number of votes cast.

Q:	What vote is required to approve each proposal?

A:	Wright: The proposal at the Wright special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the merger requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Wright shares outstanding as of the close of business on the record date for the Wright special meeting.

The proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Wright shares represented either in person or by proxy at the special meeting and entitled to vote, although such vote will not be binding on Wright or its board of directors or any of its committees.

The proposal to approve any motion to adjourn the special meeting, or any adjournment thereof, to another time or place if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby; and requires the affirmative vote at least a majority of the Wright shares represented, in person or by proxy, at the special meeting, whether or not a quorum is present.

Tornier: The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and each of the other proposals being submitted to a vote of the Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. With respect to the appointment of directors, in accordance with Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, the Tornier board of directors has made binding nominations for the positions on the Tornier board of directors, as described in this document. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed, unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors was set aside. At the extraordinary general meeting, votes in respect of the appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors can only be cast for candidates named in the agenda of the meeting or the explanatory notes thereto. These binding nominations may be overridden by a vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at the extraordinary general meeting if such two-thirds vote constitutes more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital, in which event a new meeting would need to be called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors would require majority of two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of the issued share capital.

Q:	What will happen if I fail to vote or I abstain from voting?

Wright: If you are a Wright shareholder and fail to vote, fail to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee to vote, or mark your proxy or voting instructions to abstain, this will have the effect of a vote against the proposal to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby. If you are a Wright shareholder and are present in person at the Wright special meeting and abstain from voting or mark your proxy or voting instructions to abstain, this will have the effect of a vote against the proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger and against the proposal to approve the adjournment of the Wright special meeting. If you are a Wright shareholder and are not present in person at the Wright special meeting and do not respond by proxy, this will have no effect on the vote held on the proposal to approve, on an

advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger or on the proposal to approve the adjournment of the Wright special meeting. Failure to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee to vote will also have no effect on the votes held on the proposals described in the previous sentence.

Tornier: If you are a Tornier shareholder and fail to vote or fail to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee to vote, it will have no effect on any of the Tornier proposals, assuming at least one-third of the outstanding ordinary shares are present. Tornier ordinary shares that are represented by broker non-votes will not count as shares present at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting or for the purpose of determining the number of votes cast.

Q:	What will happen if I return my proxy card without indicating how to vote?

If you are a holder of record of Wright shares or a holder of record of Tornier ordinary shares and sign and return your proxy card without indicating how to vote on any particular proposal, the Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares represented by your proxy will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Wright board of directors or the Tornier board of directors, as applicable.

Q:	What constitutes a quorum?

Wright: A majority of the outstanding Wright shares entitled to vote at the Wright special meeting must be represented in person or by proxy at the Wright special meeting in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Wright special meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present at the meeting for the purpose of determining whether there is a quorum.

Tornier: Tornier’s articles of association provide that resolutions shall be passed by a simple majority of votes cast in a meeting where at least one-third of the outstanding ordinary shares are represented. If a quorum is not represented at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, a new meeting may be convened at which the resolution may, in principle, be passed, irrespective of the part of the capital represented at such meeting. Broker non-votes will not count as shares present at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting or for the purpose of determining the number of votes cast.

Q:	Can I change my vote after I have returned a proxy or voting instruction card?

Yes.

If you are a Wright shareholder of record, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before it is voted at the Wright special meeting by:

•

voting again by internet, telephone or mail at a later time before the closing of these voting facilities at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 17, 2015;

•

submitting a duly executed proxy card bearing a later date;

•

giving a written notice of revocation of the proxy’s authority to Wright’s Corporate Secretary; or

•

if you are a registered shareholder, attending the Wright special meeting and voting in person.

If you are a record holder of Tornier ordinary shares as of the close of business on the record date for the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, you may change your vote or revoke a proxy at any time prior to its exercise at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting by:

•

voting again by internet, telephone or mail at a later time before the closing of these voting facilities at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 16, 2015;

•

submitting a duly executed proxy card bearing a later date;

•

giving a written notice of revocation of the proxy’s authority to Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary; or

•

if you are a registered shareholder, attending the extraordinary general meeting and voting in person.

If you hold Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares in “street name,” you should follow the instructions of your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee regarding the revocation of proxies.

Q:	What are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to U.S. holders of Wright shares?

Wright expects that, generally, a U.S. shareholder of Wright should recognize gain, if any, but not loss, on the receipt of Tornier ordinary shares in exchange for Wright shares pursuant to the merger. The amount of gain recognized should equal the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Tornier ordinary shares received in the merger over the U.S. shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the Wright shares. A U.S. shareholder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized without a corresponding receipt of cash. Wright recommends that each of its U.S. shareholders consult its own tax adviser as to the particular tax consequences of the merger, including the effect of U.S. federal, state and local tax laws or foreign tax laws. See “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger ” beginning on page 22.

Q:	When do you expect the merger to be completed?

We hope to complete the merger as soon as reasonably practicable. We currently expect that the closing could occur at the end of the second quarter of 2015 but more likely in the third quarter of 2015. However, the merger is subject to various regulatory and third party approvals and other conditions, and it is possible that factors outside the control of both companies could result in the merger being completed at a later time, or not at all. See “ The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger ” beginning on page 148 and “ Risk Factors ” beginning on page 28.

Q:	Are shareholders entitled to appraisal and dissenter’s rights?

A:	Wright : The Wright shareholders are not entitled to appraisal or dissenter’s rights in connection with the merger or any of the other transactions described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See “ The Merger—Appraisal and Dissenter’s Rights ” beginning on page 131.

Tornier : The Tornier shareholders are not entitled to appraisal or dissenter’s rights in connection with the merger or any of the other transactions described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See “ The Merger—Appraisal and Dissenter’s Rights ” beginning on page 131.

Q: What do I need to do now?

Carefully read and consider the information contained in, and incorporated by reference into, this joint proxy statement/prospectus, including its Annexes, then please authorize a proxy to vote your Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares as soon as possible so that your shares may be represented at the applicable shareholder meeting.

Q:	Do I need to do anything with my Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares now?

No.

Wright: After the merger is completed, your Wright shares will be converted automatically into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares. You do not need to take any action at the current time.

As soon as possible after the merger, the escrow and exchange agent will mail each holder of record of Wright shares a letter of transmittal and instructions for use in surrendering their Wright shares in exchange for Tornier ordinary shares pursuant to the merger.

Tornier: You are not required to take any action with respect to your Tornier ordinary shares.

Q:	Who is soliciting my proxy?

Wright: The Wright board of directors and members of management are soliciting your proxy for use at the Wright special meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof. All associated costs of the proxy solicitation by Wright will be borne by Wright. In addition to the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited directly by directors, officers and other employees of Wright, without additional remuneration, by personal interview, telephone, facsimile or otherwise. Wright also will supply copies of the proxy solicitation materials to brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees for the purpose of soliciting proxies from the beneficial owners of the shares held of record by such nominees. Wright will request that such brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees forward the proxy solicitation materials to the beneficial owners and will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses. Wright has retained MacKenzie Partners, Inc. to assist in its solicitation of proxies and has agreed to pay them a fee of approximately $25,000, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, for these services.

Tornier: The Tornier board of directors is soliciting your proxy for use at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. All associated costs of the proxy solicitation will be borne by Tornier. In addition to the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited by directors, officers and other employees of Tornier, without additional remuneration, by personal interview, telephone, facsimile or otherwise. Tornier also will request brokerage firms, nominees, custodians and fiduciaries to forward proxy materials to the beneficial owners of shares and will provide customary reimbursement to such firms for the cost of forwarding these materials.

Q:	What if I hold shares in both Wright and Tornier?

If you are a shareholder of both Wright and Tornier, you will receive two separate packages of proxy materials.

Recommendation of the Wright Board of Directors and Wright’s Reasons for the Merger

After careful consideration, the Wright board of directors recommends that Wright shareholders vote “ FOR ” each of the proposals being submitted to a vote of the Wright shareholders at the Wright special meeting.

In reaching its decision, the Wright board of directors considered a number of factors as generally supporting its decision to enter into the merger agreement, including, among others, the expectation that the merger would create a larger, premier extremities-biologics company; the highly complementary nature of Wright’s and Tornier’s businesses, products and geographic markets; the expectation that the combined company will be better positioned to pursue an aggressive growth strategy in comparison to Wright on a stand-alone basis; the belief that the combined company, in light of its larger scale, more comprehensive product offering and market presence, will be better positioned to meet the challenges facing the orthopaedic industry, including possible additional industry consolidation; the fact that Wright shareholders will own approximately 52% of the combined company immediately following completion of the merger; the governance arrangements contained in the merger agreement; the fact that the name of the combined company will be “Wright Medical Group N.V.”; and the fact that the ordinary shares of the combined company will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under Wright’s current trading symbol “WMGI”.

The Wright board of directors also considered a variety of risks and other potentially negative factors concerning the merger, including, among others, the risk that the merger might not be completed in a timely manner; risks related to regulatory approvals necessary to complete the merger; risks related to certain terms of the merger agreement (including restrictions on the conduct of Wright’s business prior to completion of the merger and the requirement that Wright pay Tornier a termination fee and expense reimbursement in certain circumstances); risks related to the diversion of management and resources from other strategic opportunities; challenges and difficulties relating to integrating the operations of Wright and Tornier, and the fact that the combined company likely will need additional financing to satisfy its anticipated liquidity challenges.

For a more complete description of Wright’s reasons for the merger and the recommendation of the Wright board of directors, see “ The Merger—Recommendation of the Wright Board of Directors and Wright’s Reasons for the Merger ,” beginning on page 78.

Risk Factors

Both Wright and Tornier are subject to various risks associated with their respective businesses and financial condition. In addition, the merger, as well as the possibility that the merger may not be completed, pose a number of risks to Wright and Tornier and their respective shareholders, including, among others:

•

the exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in the price of either Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares;

•

the obligation of Wright and Tornier to complete the merger is conditioned on, among other things, the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (“HSR Act”), which if delayed, not granted or granted with unacceptable conditions, may delay or jeopardize the consummation of the merger, result in additional expenditures of money and resources and/or reduce the anticipated benefits of the merger;

•

the merger is subject to certain other conditions to closing that could result in the merger not being consummated or being delayed, either of which could negatively impact the share price and future business and operating results of Wright and Tornier;

•

the merger agreement contains provisions that restrict Wright’s and Tornier’s ability to pursue alternatives to the merger and, in specified circumstances, could require Wright or Tornier to pay the other party a termination fee and expense reimbursement;

•

whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the merger could impact or cause disruptions in the businesses of Wright and Tornier, which could have an adverse effect on the businesses and operating results of Wright and Tornier; and

•

the Tornier ordinary shares to be received by Wright shareholders as a result of the merger will have different rights from Wright shares.

In addition, Wright, Tornier and the combined company are subject to various risks associated with their respective businesses. These risks are discussed in greater detail under “ Risk Factors ” beginning on page 28, and in documents that are incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See “ Where You Can Find More Information ,” beginning on page 300. Wright and Tornier both encourage you to read and consider all of these risks carefully.

Closing and Timing of the Merger

The completion of the merger will occur at a date and time to be specified jointly by Tornier and Wright, which will be no later than three business days after the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waiver of the conditions to the closing of the merger (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the closing, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions).

Tornier and Wright hope to complete the merger as soon as reasonably practicable. Tornier and Wright currently expect that the closing could occur at the end of the second quarter of 2015 but more likely in the third quarter of 2015. However, as the merger is subject to various regulatory clearances and the satisfaction or waiver of other conditions described in the merger agreement, it is possible that factors outside the control of Tornier and Wright could result in the merger being completed at a later time, or not at all.

Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders

At the effective time of the merger, each outstanding Wright share will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 fully paid and nonassessable Tornier ordinary shares, other than Wright shares held by Tornier, Merger Sub, any wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier or Wright, or by Wright as treasury shares, which will be canceled and retired and cease to exist.

Tornier will not issue fractional Tornier ordinary shares or certificates for fractional Tornier ordinary shares in connection with the merger. Each Wright shareholder that otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Tornier ordinary share will receive, in lieu thereof and upon surrender of such Wright share certificate or uncertificated share, an amount in cash that is described in detail under “ The Merger Agreement—Escrow and Exchange Agent .”

For a more complete discussion of the merger consideration, see “ The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders ” beginning on page 134.

Treatment of Wright Options and Other Wright Equity-Based Awards

Stock Options . Immediately prior to the effective time, each option to acquire Wright shares that is then outstanding will be (or, to the extent it is unvested, will automatically become) fully vested and be exchanged for an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the option prior to the merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the merger), a number of Tornier ordinary shares. The number of Tornier ordinary shares subject to the new option will be equal to the product of (i) the number of Wright shares subject to the existing option and (ii) 1.0309 (rounding fractional shares down to the nearest whole share). The exercise price per share under the new option will be equal to (i) the exercise price per share of the Wright option divided by (ii) 1.0309 (rounded up to the nearest whole cent).

Restricted Stock . Immediately prior to the effective time, each share of Wright restricted stock that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 ordinary shares of Tornier, as described under “ The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders .”

Restricted Stock Unit Awards . Immediately prior to the effective time, each Wright restricted stock unit award that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and, at the effective time, will be cancelled, extinguished, and converted into a right to receive a number of Tornier ordinary shares equal to the product of (i) the total number of Wright shares underlying the award immediately prior to the effective time and (ii) 1.0309.

For a more complete discussion of the treatment of Wright stock options and other equity-based awards, see “ The Merger Agreement—Treatment of Wright Options and Other Wright Equity-Based Awards ” beginning on page 134.

Management of the Combined Company After the Merger

Upon completion of the merger, the board of directors of the combined company will consist of ten directors, including two executive directors and eight non-executive directors. The two executive directors will be Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry and the eight non-executive directors will be: Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman. In each case, these directors will be appointed effective as of the effective time of the merger to serve until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Information regarding these individuals, including their biographical information, can be found under “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6—Appointment of Directors—Additional Information About Executive Director Nominees ” and “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6—Appointment of Directors—Additional Information About Non-Executive Director Nominees .”

Upon completion of the merger, it is expected that Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, will serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company, and David H. Mowry, Tornier’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, will serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the combined company. Lance A.

Although the general terms of Mr. Palmisano’s, Mr. Mowry’s and Mr. Berry’s compensation arrangements with the combined company have been discussed, no agreements reflecting such terms have been finalized as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. These matters are subject to further negotiations and discussions and there can be no assurance that the parties will reach agreement.

receipt of certificates of good standing or equivalent certificates, dated within five business days of the closing date, of the other party and any of its subsidiaries that are parties to the merger.

In addition, the obligations of Wright to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions as of the closing date:

•

the voting and support agreement by and between Wright and a certain Tornier shareholder, as described below, being in effect and not terminated or repudiated;

•

all required action having been taken so that as of the effective time, the articles of association of Tornier will be amended pursuant to the merger agreement;

•

Tornier having filed with NASDAQ the listing of additional shares notification form with respect to the Tornier ordinary shares issued or issuable pursuant to the merger agreement and such Tornier ordinary shares having been approved and authorized for listing on NASDAQ;

•

obtaining the approval of the required percentage of Tornier ordinary shares to (i) adopt the proposal of the Tornier board of directors to amend Tornier’s articles of association, including the name change contemplated thereby; and (ii) appoint the nominees for the Tornier board of directors as set forth in the merger agreement; and

•

Tornier having increased the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance pursuant to equity-based awards under the Tornier employee benefit plans if requested by Wright as contemplated in the merger agreement.

Wright and Tornier may waive conditions to completion of the merger only to the extent legally permissible. In the event that either Wright or Tornier determines to waive any condition to the merger and such waiver necessitates the recirculation of this joint proxy statement/prospectus and resolicitation of proxies under applicable law, Wright and Tornier will recirculate this joint proxy statement/prospectus and resolicit proxies from Wright and Tornier shareholders.

For a more complete discussion of the conditions to completion of the merger, see “ The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger ” beginning on page 148.

No Solicitation; Board Recommendations

Subject to certain exceptions specified in the merger agreement, each of Tornier and Wright agreed not to (i) solicit proposals relating to, participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with respect to, or enter into any agreement with respect to an acquisition proposal with respect to itself or (ii) disclose any non-public information or data relating to, or afford access to the properties, books, or records of, itself or any of its subsidiaries to any person that has made an acquisition proposal with respect to it.

If, however, prior to obtaining the approval of its shareholders, Tornier or Wright receives an unsolicited written acquisition proposal from a third party that constitutes, or that its respective board of directors determines in good faith is reasonably expected to lead to, a superior proposal, then Tornier or Wright, as applicable, may, subject to certain conditions included in the merger agreement, disclose any non-public information or data relating to, or afford access to the properties, books, or records of, itself or any of its subsidiaries to and participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with that third party with respect to that proposal.

For a more complete description of the prohibition on solicitations of acquisition proposals from third parties, see “ The Merger Agreement—No Solicitation ” beginning on page 142.

Change of Recommendation

The merger agreement generally restricts the ability of the board of directors of each of Tornier and Wright to withdraw its recommendation that its shareholders approve the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement or to propose publicly to recommend, adopt, or approve any acquisition proposal with respect to itself.

However, the board of directors of each of Tornier and Wright may change its recommendation, prior to

obtaining the approval of the respective shareholders, in response to a superior offer or an intervening event if,

among other things, such board of directors concludes that a failure to change its recommendation would be a breach of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders and, if requested by the other party, its representatives have negotiated in good faith with the other party for five business days regarding any amendment to the merger agreement that would allow the transaction contemplated thereby to be effected.

For a more complete description of the circumstances under which the Tornier board of directors or Wright board of directors may withdraw its recommendation that its shareholders approve the merger, see “ The Merger Agreement—Change of Recommendation ” beginning on page 144.

Termination of the Merger Agreement

The merger agreement may be terminated and the merger may be abandoned at any time prior to the effective time by mutual written consent of Tornier and Wright, as well as under certain other circumstances.

The merger agreement may be terminated by either Tornier or Wright if:

•

the other party’s board of directors or any committee thereof (i) makes an adverse recommendation change or (ii) publicly proposes to make an adverse recommendation change;

•

the other party materially breaches the provisions of the merger agreement described under “ The Merger Agreement—No Solicitation; Board Recommendations ”;

•

at any time prior to obtaining the approval of its shareholders, in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a superior proposal, in each case if it has complied with its obligations under the provisions described under “ The Merger Agreement—No Solicitation; Board Recommendations ” and, in connection with the termination of the merger agreement, it pays to the other party in immediately available funds $46 million; or

•

at any time prior to the effective time, if any of the other party’s covenants, representations, or warranties contained in the merger agreement has been breached or any of the other party’s representations and warranties has become untrue, such that any of the conditions to the closing of the merger described under “ The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger ” will not be satisfied, and such breach is (i) incapable of being cured by the other party or (ii) has not been cured within 45 days of receipt by the other party of written notice of such breach describing in reasonable detail such breach.

The merger agreement may be terminated by either Tornier or Wright if, subject to certain conditions being met:

•

the required approval of either party’s shareholders contemplated under the merger agreement at the respective shareholders’ meeting is not obtained;

•

the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement violate any order, decree, or ruling of any court or governmental body that has become final and non-appealable or if there is a law that makes the transactions contemplated in the merger agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited; or

•

the merger has not been consummated by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on September 30, 2015, which period may be extended to a date not beyond December 31, 2015, if the waiting period under the HSR Act has not terminated or expired on or before 5:00 p.m., New York time, on September 30, 2015.

For a more complete discussion of the circumstances under which the merger agreement may be terminated, see “ The Merger Agreement—Termination of the Merger Agreement ” beginning on page 149.

Expenses and Termination Fee

All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation of the merger agreement, the performance of the obligations thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will be paid by the party incurring such expenses. The merger agreement provides that each of Tornier and Wright will be obligated to pay a $46 million termination fee and expenses not to exceed $5 million to the other party following the termination of the merger agreement by the other party in certain circumstances.

For a more complete discussion of expenses and the termination fee, see “ The Merger Agreement—Expenses and Termination Fee ” beginning on page 150.

Vote Required

Wright: The proposal at the Wright special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Wright shares outstanding as of the close of business on the record date for the Wright special meeting.

Tornier: The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting where at least one-third of the outstanding share capital is represented is required to approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and each of the other proposals being submitted to a vote of the Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

With respect to the appointment of directors, under Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, the Tornier board of directors has the right to make binding nominations for open positions on the Tornier board of directors. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed, unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors was set aside. The binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors may be overridden by a vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary general meeting if such two-thirds vote constitutes more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital, in which event a new meeting would be called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors would require majority of two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of the issued share capital. At an annual or extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, votes in respect of the appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors can only be cast for candidates named in the agenda of the meeting or the explanatory notes thereto.

Voting and Support Agreement

In connection with the execution of the merger agreement, Wright entered into a voting and support agreement with TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC and a shareholder holding approximately 21.9% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions therein, such shareholder agreed to vote its Tornier ordinary shares in favor of the merger, the merger agreement and any actions required in furtherance thereof.

For a more complete discussion of the voting and support agreement, see “ Voting and Support Agreement ” beginning on page 152. For a more complete discussion of the beneficial ownership of Wright’s and Tornier’s directors, executive officers and affiliates, see “ Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners, Management and Directors of Wright ” and “ Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners, Management and Directors of Tornier ” beginning on pages 268 and 271, respectively.

Material Tax Consequences of the Merger

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger

Tax Residence of Combined Company for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes

Under current U.S. federal income tax law, a corporation generally will be considered to be resident for U.S. federal income tax purposes in its place of organization or incorporation. Accordingly, under the generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rules, Tornier, which is a Netherlands incorporated entity, would be classified as a non-U.S. corporation (and, therefore, not a U.S. tax resident). Section 7874 (which is referred to in this document as “Section 7874”) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (which is referred to in this document as the “Code”), however, contains specific rules (more fully discussed below) that can cause a non-U.S. corporation to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These rules are complex and there is little or no guidance as to their application.

As more fully described under “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Tax Residence of the Combined Company for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes ” beginning on page 155, Section 7874 is currently expected to apply in a manner such that the combined company should not be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The remaining discussion assumes that the combined company will not be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7874 of the Code.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to Wright

Wright will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of the merger, and Section 7874 should not apply so as to limit the utilization of its tax attributes, as described below under “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Potential Limitation on the Utilization of Wright’s (and Its U.S. Affiliates’) Tax Attributes ” beginning on page 155.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to Wright Shareholders

Wright expects that, generally, a U.S. shareholder of Wright should recognize gain, if any, but not loss, on the receipt of Tornier ordinary shares in exchange for Wright shares pursuant to the merger. The amount of gain recognized should equal the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Tornier ordinary shares received in the merger over the U.S. shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the Wright shares. Accordingly, a U.S. shareholder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized without a corresponding receipt of cash. Wright recommends that each of its U.S. shareholders consult his/her own tax adviser as to the particular tax consequences of the merger, including the effect of U.S. federal, state and local tax laws or non-U.S. tax laws. See “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to Wright Shareholders ” beginning on page 156 for a more detailed description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger.

Material Dutch Tax Consequences Relating to the Combined Company Ordinary Shares

Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders should read “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger—Material Dutch Tax Consequences ” for a discussion of the material Dutch tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares. Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders should consult their own tax advisors to determine the tax consequences to them (including the application and effect of any state, local, income and other tax laws) of the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares.

Regulatory Approvals Required

Wright and Tornier have agreed to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable applicable federal, state and other antitrust regulatory approvals, and any other approval required under any applicable federal or state law. Under the HSR Act, Wright and Tornier must file notifications with the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division and observe a mandatory pre-merger waiting period before completing the merger. On November 25, 2014, each of Wright and Tornier filed its notification under the HSR Act. Wright and Tornier have determined that no foreign regulatory approvals are required in connection with the merger. During December 2014, Tornier voluntarily withdrew its HSR notification and then refiled. On January 28, 2015, Wright and Tornier each received a request for additional information and documentary materials, often referred to as a “second request,” from the Federal Trade Commission in connection with the merger relating to overlap in certain of Wright’s and Tornier’s lower extremity products. Issuance of the second request extends the waiting period under the HSR Act until 30 days after both parties have substantially complied with the second request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Both companies are cooperating with the FTC staff in the review of the merger. In connection with the resolution of the HSR review, Wright and Tornier currently expect to divest the Tornier Salto Talaris and Salto XT ankle replacement products and the Tornier silastic toe replacement products, which generated revenue in the United States of less than $15 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2014 and $15.5 million in the 12 months ended December 28, 2014. Both Wright and Tornier believe that the economic effect of and the strategic rationale for the proposed merger will not materially be affected by the proposed divestiture.

In the United States, Tornier must comply with applicable federal and state securities laws and NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market rules and regulations in connection with the issuance of Tornier ordinary shares in the merger, including the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part.

For a more complete discussion of the regulatory approvals required in connection with the merger, see “ The Merger—Regulatory Approvals Required ” beginning on page 129.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

The merger will be accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” pursuant to which Wright will be considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). As such, Wright will allocate the total purchase consideration to Tornier’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on their relative fair values at the date of completion of the merger. Wright’s historical results of operations will replace Tornier’s historical results of operations for all periods prior to the merger. After completion of the merger, the results of operations of both companies will be included in the combined company’s financial statements. For a more complete discussion of the anticipated accounting treatment of the merger, see “ The Merger—Anticipated Accounting Treatment ” beginning on page 130.

Appraisal Rights

instead of receiving the consideration offered to shareholders in connection with the extraordinary transaction. Appraisal rights are not available to Wright shareholders in connection with the merger or any of the other transactions described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Dutch corporate law grants a shareholder of a non-surviving entity in a merger, in certain circumstances, the right to claim monetary compensation rights ( schadeloosstelling ). However, no such rights will be available to Tornier shareholders in this transaction.

Comparison of Shareholder Rights

As a result of the merger, the holders of Wright shares will become holders of Tornier ordinary shares and their rights will be governed by Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, instead of the Delaware General Corporation Law and Wright’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws. Material differences between the rights of Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders include:

•

Under Wright’s bylaws, nominations for election of directors may be made by the Wright board of directors or a committee appointed by the Board, or by any shareholder entitled to vote generally in the election of directors who complies with the advance notice procedure set forth in Wright’s bylaws. Members of the Tornier board of directors are appointed from binding nominations made by the Tornier board of directors, which may only be overridden by a resolution passed by two-thirds of the votes cast at the shareholders meeting representing more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital.

•

Under Wright’s bylaws, the holders of shares having a majority of the voting power of Wright common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting of the shareholders constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided by law. Under Dutch law, there are no quorum requirements generally applicable to meetings of shareholders.

•

Dutch corporate law grants a shareholder of a non-surviving entity in a merger, in certain circumstances, the right to claim monetary compensation rights. For example, in cross border mergers within the European Economic Area, a shareholder of the non-surviving entity who has voted against the proposed merger may submit a request for compensation with the non-surviving entity. However, the merger between Wright and Tornier is not structured as such a cross border merger; and therefore, no such rights will be available to Tornier shareholders in this transaction.

For a summary of the material differences between the rights of Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders, see “ Comparison of Rights of Wright Shareholders and Tornier Shareholders ” beginning on page 282.

Litigation Relating to the Merger

On November 25, 2014, a class action complaint was filed in the Court of Chancery of the state of Delaware (the “Delaware Chancery Court”), by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption Paul Parshall v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al ., C.A. No. 10400-CB. An amended complaint in the action was filed on February 6, 2015. The amended complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the Wright board of directors. The amended complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The amended complaint further alleges that Wright, Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

Also on November 25, 2014, a second class action complaint was filed in the Chancery Court of Shelby County Tennessee, for the Thirtieth Judicial District, at Memphis (the “Tennessee Chancery Court”), by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption Anthony Marks as Trustee for Marks Clan Super v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al. , CH-14-1721-1. An amended complaint in the action was filed on January 7, 2015. On February 23, 2015, the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the action, as pending in the Tennessee Chancery Court, without prejudice. Later on February 23, 2015, the plaintiff refiled the action in the Delaware Chancery Court under the caption Anthony Marks as Trustee for Marks Clan Super v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al. , C.A. No. 10706-CB. The complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the Wright board of directors. The complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The complaint further alleges that Wright, Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

On March 2, 2015, the Delaware Chancery Court consolidated Paul Parshall v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al., C.A. No. 10400-CB, and Anthony Marks as Trustee for Marks Clan Super v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al., C.A. No. 10706-CB, under the caption In re Wright Medical Group, Inc. Stockholders Litigation, C.A. No. 10400-CB. A motion for preliminary injunction has been filed in the consolidated action, and the Delaware Chancery Court has set a hearing on that motion for June 9, 2015.

On November 26, 2014, a third class action complaint was filed in the Circuit Court of Tennessee, for the Thirtieth Judicial District, at Memphis (the “Tennessee Circuit Court”), by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption City of Warwick Retirement System v. Gary D. Blackford et al., CT-005015-14. An amended complaint in the action was filed on January 5, 2015. The amended complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the Wright board of directors. The amended complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The amended complaint further alleges that Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

On December 2, 2014, a fourth class action complaint was filed in the Tennessee Chancery Court by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption Paulette Jacques v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al ., CH-14-1736-1. An amended complaint in the action was filed on January 27, 2015. The amended complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub, Warburg Pincus LLC and the members of the Wright board of directors. The amended complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The amended complaint further alleges that Wright, Tornier, Warburg Pincus, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information included in or incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, including the matters addressed under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” Wright and Tornier shareholders should consider carefully the following risk factors before deciding how to vote their Wright shares at the Wright special meeting and/or Tornier ordinary shares at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. If any of the risks described below actually occur, the respective businesses, operating results, financial condition or share prices of Wright, Tornier or the combined company could be materially adversely affected. The risks discussed below may not prove to be exhaustive and are based on certain assumptions made by Wright and Tornier, which later may prove to be incorrect or incomplete. See “Where You Can Find More Information” beginning on page 300.

Risks Related to the Merger

The exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in the price of either Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares.

Upon completion of the merger, each Wright share will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares. This exchange ratio will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of either Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares between the date of signing the merger agreement and completion of the merger. Changes in the price of Tornier ordinary shares prior to the merger will affect the value of Tornier ordinary shares that Wright shareholders will receive on the closing date. The exchange ratio will, however, be adjusted appropriately to fully reflect the effect of any reclassification, stock split, stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization or other similar transaction with respect to either the Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares prior to the completion of the merger.

The prices of Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares on the date of the completion of the merger may vary from their prices on the date the merger agreement was executed, on the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus and on the date of each shareholder meeting. As a result, the value represented by the exchange ratio will also vary. These variations could result from changes in the business, operations or prospects of Wright or Tornier prior to or following the completion of the merger, regulatory considerations, general market and economic conditions and other factors both within and beyond the control of Wright or Tornier. At the time of the Wright special meeting, Wright shareholders will not know with certainty the value of the Tornier ordinary shares that they will receive upon completion of the merger. Based on the closing price on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on May , 2015, the last practicable trading day prior to the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the value of the 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares to be received in respect of each Wright common share was $ .

The obligation of Wright and Tornier to complete the merger is conditioned on, among other things, the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, which if delayed, not granted or granted with unacceptable conditions, may delay or jeopardize the consummation of the merger, result in additional expenditures of money and resources and/or reduce the anticipated benefits of the merger.

The merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act. Wright and Tornier can provide no assurance that clearance under the HSR Act will be obtained. Moreover, as a condition to their clearance of the transaction under the HSR Act, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission or the Antitrust Division within the U.S. Department of Justice may impose requirements, limitations or costs or require divestitures or place restrictions on the conduct of the business of the combined company after the closing. These requirements, limitations, costs, divestitures or restrictions could jeopardize or delay the effective time of the merger, adversely affect the timing and ability of the combined company to integrate Wright’s and Tornier’s operations and/or reduce the anticipated benefits of the merger.

On January 28, 2015, Wright and Tornier each received a request for additional information and documentary materials, often referred to as a “second request,” from the Federal Trade Commission in connection with the merger. Issuance of the second request extends the waiting period under the HSR Act until 30 days after both parties have substantially complied with the second request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Both companies are cooperating with the FTC staff in the review of the merger. Wright and Tornier may agree to material requirements, limitations, costs, restrictions or divestitures in order to obtain clearance under the HSR Act, any of which could result in a failure to consummate the merger or have a material adverse effect on the business and operating results of the combined company. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Wright will control the terms of, and assets included in, any divestiture involving assets that generated U.S. revenue less than $15 million during the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, subject to using commercially reasonable efforts to contest any divestiture proposed by a governmental body. The parties must jointly agree on any more significant divestiture.

The product lines identified in the second request are lower extremity products. Wright and Tornier currently believe that a divestiture of assets that generated U.S. revenue of less than $15 million during the 12 months ended September 30, 2014 will occur. It is currently contemplated that the assets to be divested will be the Tornier Salto Talaris and Salto XT ankle replacement products and the Tornier silastic toe replacement products, which generated U.S. revenue of less than $15 million during the 12 months ended September 30, 2014 and generated U.S. revenue of approximately $15.5 million during the fiscal year ended December 28, 2014. No assurance can be provided that the currently contemplated divestiture will occur or that it will result in clearance of the merger under the HSR Act. Both Wright and Tornier are committed to the proposed transaction, and although the resolution of the FTC’s second request is not yet known, Wright and Tornier believe the economics and strategic rationale of the proposed merger will not materially be affected by the contemplated divestiture and that the proposed merger will be completed.

The merger is subject to certain other conditions to closing that could result in the merger not being consummated or being delayed, any of which could negatively impact the share price and future business and operating results of Wright and Tornier.

Consummation of the merger is subject to a number of customary conditions, other than expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, including, but not limited to, the approval of the merger agreement by the Wright and Tornier shareholders. There is no assurance that Wright and Tornier will receive the necessary approvals or satisfy the other conditions necessary for the completion of the merger. If any conditions to the merger are not satisfied or, where waiver is permissible, not waived, the merger will not be consummated.

Failure to complete the merger would prevent Wright and Tornier from realizing the anticipated benefits of the merger. Wright and Tornier have already and expect to continue to incur significant costs associated with transaction fees, professional services, taxes and other costs related to the merger. In the event that the merger is not completed, Wright and Tornier, respectively, will remain liable for these costs and expenses. Further, if the merger is not completed and the merger agreement is terminated, under certain circumstances, either Wright or Tornier may be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $46 million and/or pay expenses of the other party up to $5 million.

In addition, the current market price of Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares may reflect a market assumption that the merger will occur, and a failure to complete the merger could result in a negative perception by the market of Wright and Tornier generally and a resulting decline in the market price of Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares. Any delay in the consummation of the merger or any uncertainty about the consummation of the merger could also negatively impact the share price and future business and operating results of Wright and Tornier. Wright and Tornier cannot assure you that the merger will be consummated, that there will be no delay in the consummation of the merger or that the merger will be consummated on the terms contemplated by the merger agreement.

Wright and Tornier may waive one or more conditions to the merger without resoliciting shareholder approval for the merger.

Certain conditions to Wright’s and Tornier’s obligations to complete the merger may be waived, in whole or in part, to the extent legally allowed, either unilaterally or by agreement of Wright and Tornier. In the event of a waiver of a condition, the boards of directors of Wright and Tornier will evaluate the materiality of any such waiver to determine whether a supplement to this joint proxy statement/prospectus, an amendment to the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part or a resolicitation of proxies is necessary. In the event that the board of directors of Wright or Tornier determines any such waiver is not significant enough to require resolicitation of shareholders, it will have the discretion to complete the merger without seeking further shareholder approval. The conditions requiring the approval of each company’s shareholders, however, cannot be waived.

The merger agreement contains provisions that restrict Wright’s and Tornier’s ability to pursue alternatives to the merger and, in specified circumstances, could require Wright or Tornier to pay the other party a termination fee and expense reimbursement.

Under the merger agreement, Wright and Tornier each agreed not to (1) take certain actions to solicit proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions or (2) subject to certain exceptions, including the receipt of a “superior proposal” (as such term is defined in the merger agreement), enter into discussions or an agreement concerning or provide confidential information in connection with any proposals for alternative business combination transactions. In certain specified circumstances described under “ The Merger Agreement—Expenses and Termination Fee ,” upon termination of the merger agreement, the breaching party would be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $46 million and reimburse the other party for its merger-related expenses in an amount not to exceed $5 million. These provisions could discourage a third party that may have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of Wright or Tornier from considering or proposing that acquisition, even if such third party were prepared to enter into a transaction that is more favorable to Wright, Tornier or their respective shareholders than the proposed merger.

Whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the merger could impact or cause disruptions in the businesses of Wright and Tornier, which could have an adverse effect on the businesses and operating results of Wright and Tornier.

Whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the merger could cause disruptions in or otherwise negatively impact the businesses and operating results of Wright and Tornier, including among others:

•

Wright and Tornier employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with the combined company, which might adversely affect Wright’s and Tornier’s ability to retain and hire key personnel and other employees;

•

the attention of Wright’s and Tornier’s management may be directed toward completion of the merger and transaction-related considerations and may be diverted from the day-to-day operations and pursuit of other opportunities that could have been beneficial to the businesses of Wright and Tornier; and

•

customers, distributors, independent sales agencies, vendors or suppliers may seek to modify or terminate their business relationships with Wright or Tornier, or delay or defer decisions concerning Wright or Tornier.

These disruptions could be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the merger or termination of the merger agreement and could have an adverse effect on the businesses, operating results or prospects of Wright and Tornier if the merger is not completed or the business, operating results or prospects of the combined company if the merger is completed.

Current Wright and Tornier shareholders will have a reduced ownership and voting interest in the combined company after the merger.

Upon completion of the merger, Wright shareholders will own approximately 52% of the combined company and Tornier shareholders will own approximately 48% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis. Wright and Tornier shareholders currently have the right to vote for their respective directors and on other matters affecting their respective companies. When the merger occurs, each Wright shareholder who receives Tornier ordinary shares in the merger will become a shareholder of the combined company with a percentage ownership of the combined company that will be smaller than the shareholder’s percentage ownership of Wright. Correspondingly, each Tornier shareholder will remain a shareholder of the combined company with a percentage ownership of the combined company that will be smaller than the shareholder’s percentage ownership of Tornier prior to the merger. As a result of these reduced ownership percentages, current Wright shareholders will have less voting power in the combined company than they now have with respect to Wright, and current Tornier shareholders will have less voting power in the combined company than they now have with respect to Tornier.

The Tornier ordinary shares to be received by Wright shareholders as a result of the merger will have different rights from Wright shares.

Following completion of the merger, Wright shareholders will no longer be shareholders of Wright, but will be shareholders of Tornier, which will be renamed Wright Medical Group N.V. There are important differences between the rights as a Wright shareholder and the rights as a Tornier shareholder. Material differences between the rights of Wright shareholders and Tornier shareholders include:

•

Dutch corporate law grants a shareholder of a non-surviving entity in a merger, in certain circumstances, the right to claim monetary compensation rights. For example, in cross border mergers within the European Economic Area, a shareholder of the non-surviving entity who has voted against the proposed merger may submit a request for compensation with the non-surviving entity. However, the merger between Wright and Tornier is not structured as such a cross border merger and therefore no such rights will be available to Tornier shareholders in this transaction.

See “ Comparison of the Rights of Wright Shareholders and Tornier Shareholders ” beginning on page 282 for a discussion of the different rights associated with Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares.

The opinions of Wright’s and Tornier’s financial advisors will not reflect changes in circumstances between the signing of the merger agreement and completion of the merger.

Wright and Tornier have not obtained updated opinions from their respective financial advisors as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus and do not expect to receive updated opinions prior to completion of the merger. Changes in the operations and prospects of Wright or Tornier, general market and economic conditions and other factors that may be beyond the control of Wright or Tornier, and on which Wright’s and Tornier’s financial advisors’ opinions were based, may significantly alter the value of Wright or Tornier or the

prices of Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares by the time the merger is completed. The opinions do not speak as of the time the merger will be completed or as of any date other than the date of such opinions. Because Wright’s and Tornier’s financial advisors will not be updating their opinions, the opinions will not address the fairness of the merger consideration from a financial point of view at the time the merger is completed. The Wright board of directors’ recommendation that Wright shareholders vote “ FOR ” the proposals being submitted to the Wright shareholders and the Tornier board of directors’ recommendation that Tornier shareholders vote “ FOR ” the proposals being submitted to the Tornier shareholders, however, are made as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. For a description of the opinions that Wright and Tornier received from their respective financial advisors, please refer to “ The Merger—Opinions of Wright’s Financial Advisors ” and “ The Merger—Opinion of Tornier’s Financial Advisor ” beginning on pages 88 and 103, respectively.

The directors and executive officers of Wright and Tornier have interests in the merger that may be different from, or in addition to, those of other Wright and Tornier shareholders, which could have influenced their decisions to support or approve the merger.

In considering whether to approve the proposals at the meetings, Wright and Tornier shareholders should recognize that the directors and executive officers of Wright and Tornier have interests in the merger that are in addition to their interests as shareholders of Wright or Tornier. These interests may include, among others, continued service as a director or an executive officer of the combined company, accelerated vesting of certain equity-based awards or certain severance benefits and payment of certain amounts in connection with the merger, as applicable. These interests, among others, may influence the directors and executive officers of Wright to support or approve the proposals at the Wright special meeting or the directors and executive officers of Tornier to support or approve the proposals at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. See “ The Merger — Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger ” and “ The Merger — Interests of Tornier’s Directors and Officers in the Merger .”

If counterparties to certain agreements with Wright or Tornier do not consent to the merger, change of control rights under those agreements may be triggered as a result of the merger, which could cause the combined company to lose the benefit of such agreements and incur liabilities or replacement costs.

Wright and Tornier could be parties to agreements or possess permits that contain change of control provisions that will be triggered as a result of the merger. If the counterparties to these agreements or the authorities responsible for such permits do not consent to the merger, the counterparties or authorities may have the ability to exercise certain rights (including termination rights), resulting in Wright or Tornier incurring liabilities as a consequence of breaching such agreements or operating without such permits, or causing Wright or Tornier to lose the benefit of such agreements or permits or incur costs in seeking replacement agreements or permits.

The combined company will have significant financial obligations and indebtedness. The combined company may not be able to generate enough cash flow from operations to service its indebtedness, and may face additional liquidity challenges in the future, which could reduce the combined company’s operational and strategic flexibility.

The combined company may face liquidity challenges during the next few years in light of significant contingent liabilities and financial obligations and commitments, including, among others, Tornier’s outstanding indebtedness in the amount of approximately $90.0 million that will become due and payable upon completion of the merger, $60 million in aggregate principal amount of Wright’s 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 and $632.5 million in an aggregate principal amount of Wright’s 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (together the Notes), acquisition-related contingent consideration payments and outstanding indebtedness, transaction-related expenses, and the combined company’s anticipated operating losses for the next few years.

The combined company’s ability to make payments on, and to refinance, this indebtedness and its ability to fund planned capital expenditures, research and development efforts, working capital, acquisitions and other

general corporate purposes depends on the combined company’s ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If the combined company does not generate sufficient cash flow from operations or if future borrowings are not available to the combined company in an amount sufficient to pay our indebtedness, including payments of principal upon conversion of outstanding Notes or on their respective maturity dates or in connection with a transaction involving the combined company that constitutes a fundamental change under the respective indentures governing the Notes, or to fund liquidity needs, the combined company may be forced to refinance all or a portion of this indebtedness, including the Notes, on or before the maturity dates thereof, sell assets, reduce or delay capital expenditures, seek to raise additional capital or take other similar actions. These actions may not be possible on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The combined company’s ability to refinance indebtedness will depend on its financial condition at the time, the restrictions in the instruments governing indebtedness and other factors, including market conditions. In addition, in the event of a default under the Notes, the holders and/or the trustee under the indentures governing the Notes may accelerate its payment obligations under the Notes, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. An inability to generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy debt service obligations, or to refinance or restructure obligations on commercially reasonable terms or at all, would likely have an adverse effect, which could be material, on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the combined company.

Five class action lawsuits have been filed and additional lawsuits may be filed against Wright, Tornier, Holdco and/or Merger Sub relating to the merger. An adverse ruling in any such lawsuit may prevent the merger from being consummated.

On November 25, 2014, two purported Wright shareholders, Anthony Marks (as Trustee for Marks Clan Super) and Paul Parshall, filed class action complaints challenging the merger in the Tennessee Chancery Court and the Delaware Chancery Court, respectively. Marks amended his complaint on January 7, 2015 and Parshall amended his complaint on February 6, 2015. On February 23, 2015, Marks voluntarily dismissed his complaint and then refiled in the Delaware Chancery Court. On March 2, 2015, the Delaware Chancery Court consolidated the Parshall action and the Marks action. A motion for a preliminary injunction has been filed in the consolidated action, and the Delaware Chancery Court has set a hearing on that motion for June 9, 2015.

On November 26, 2014, a third purported Wright shareholder, City of Warwick Retirement System, filed a class action complaint challenging the merger in the Tennessee Circuit Court. City of Warwick Retirement System amended its complaint on January 5, 2015. On December 2, 2014, a fourth purported Wright shareholder, Paulette Jacques, filed a class action complaint challenging the merger in the Tennessee Chancery Court. Jacques amended her complaint on January 27, 2015 and named Warburg Pincus as a defendant. On March 24, 2015, a fifth purported Wright shareholder, Michael Prince, filed a class action complaint challenging the merger in the Delaware Chancery Court. In an order dated March 31, 2015, the Tennessee Circuit Court transferred the City of Warwick Retirement System action to the Tennessee Chancery Court for consolidation with the Jacques action.

The five complaints name as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the board of directors of Wright. One of the five complaints also names Warburg Pincus as a defendant. The complaints seek, among other relief, an order enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs on the grounds that the Wright board or directors breached their fiduciary duty in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The complaints further allege that Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub, and/or Warburg Pincus aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. It is possible that these complaints will be further amended to make additional claims and/or that additional lawsuits making similar or additional claims relating to the merger will be brought.

One of the conditions to completion of the merger is the absence of any order being in effect that prohibits the consummation of the merger. Accordingly, if any of these plaintiffs or any future plaintiff is successful in

obtaining an order enjoining consummation of the merger, then such order may prevent the merger from being completed, or from being completed within the expected time frame. See “ The Merger—Litigation Related to the Merger ” for more information about the lawsuits related to the merger that have been filed.

Risks Related to the Combined Company if the Merger is Completed

The combined company may be unable to successfully integrate Wright’s and Tornier’s operations or realize the anticipated cost savings and other potential benefits of the merger in a timely manner or at all. As a result, the value of the combined company’s ordinary shares may be adversely affected.

Wright and Tornier entered into the merger agreement because each company believed that the merger will be beneficial to its respective shareholders, other stakeholders and businesses. Achieving the anticipated potential benefits of the merger will depend in part upon whether the combined company is able to integrate Wright’s and Tornier’s operations in an efficient and effective manner. The integration process may not be completed smoothly or successfully. The necessity of coordinating geographically separated organizations, systems and facilities and addressing possible differences in business backgrounds, corporate cultures and management philosophies may increase the difficulties of integration. Wright and Tornier operate numerous systems, including those involving management information, purchasing, accounting and finance, sales, billing, payroll, employee benefits and regulatory compliance. Wright and Tornier may also have inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures or policies that could affect the combined company’s ability to maintain relationships with customers and employees after the merger or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger. The integration of certain operations following the merger will require the dedication of significant management resources, which may temporarily distract management’s attention from the combined company’s day-to-day business. Employee uncertainty and lack of focus during the integration process may also disrupt the combined company’s business. Any inability of management to integrate successfully the operations of the two companies or to do so within a longer time frame than expected could have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s business and operating results. The combined company may not be able to achieve the anticipated operating and cost synergies or long-term strategic benefits of the merger. An inability to realize the full extent of, or any of, the anticipated benefits of the merger, as well as any delays encountered in the integration process, could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s business and operating results, which may affect the value of the combined company’s ordinary shares after completion of the merger.

The success of the combined company after the merger will depend in part upon the ability of Wright and Tornier to retain key employees of each company. Competition for qualified personnel can be very intense. In addition, key employees may depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty or difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with the combined company. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that key employees will be retained.

Wright and Tornier have not yet determined the exact nature of how the businesses and operations of the two companies will be combined after the merger. The actual integration may result in additional and unforeseen expenses, and the anticipated benefits of the integration plan may not be realized.

The future results of the combined company will suffer if the combined company does not effectively manage its expanded operations following completion of the merger.

Following completion of the merger, the size of the business of the combined company will increase significantly beyond the current size of either Wright’s or Tornier’s business. The combined company’s future success depends, in part, upon its ability to manage this expanded business, which will pose substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. There can be no assurances that the combined company will be successful or that it will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings and other benefits currently anticipated from the merger.

Wright and Tornier will incur direct and indirect costs as a result of the merger.

Wright and Tornier will incur substantial expenses in connection with completing the merger, and over a period of time following completion of the merger, the combined company further expects to incur substantial expenses in connection with coordinating the businesses, operations, policies and procedures of Wright and Tornier. While Wright and Tornier have assumed that a certain level of transaction and coordination expenses will be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond the combined company’s control that could affect the total amount or the timing of these transaction and coordination expenses. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately. These expenses may exceed the costs historically borne by Wright and Tornier.

Wright’s and Tornier’s actual financial positions and results of operations may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma financial data included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The pro forma financial information contained in this joint proxy statement/prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an indication of what the combined company’s financial position or results of operations would have been had the transaction been completed on the dates indicated. The pro forma financial information has been derived from the audited and unaudited historical financial statements of Wright and Tornier and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding the combined company after giving effect to the transaction. The assets and liabilities of Wright and Tornier have been measured at fair value based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions that management believes are reasonable utilizing information currently available. The process for estimating the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities requires the use of judgment in determining the appropriate assumptions and estimates. These estimates may be revised as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed. Differences between preliminary estimates in the pro forma financial information and the final acquisition accounting will occur and could have a material impact on the pro forma financial information and the combined company’s financial position and future results of operations.

In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial information may not prove to be accurate, and other factors may affect the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations following the closing. Any potential decline in the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations may cause significant variations in the share price of the combined company.

The market price of the combined company’s ordinary shares after the merger may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares.

Upon completion of the merger, holders of Wright shares will become holders of Tornier ordinary shares. The business of Wright differs from that of Tornier in important respects and, accordingly, the results of operations of the combined company and the market price of the combined company’s ordinary shares following the merger may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting the independent results of operations of Wright and Tornier. For a discussion of the businesses of Wright and Tornier and of certain factors to consider in connection with those businesses, see the documents incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus referred to under “ Where You Can Find More Information ” beginning on page 300.

If goodwill or other intangible assets that the combined company records in connection with the merger become impaired, the combined company could be required to take significant charges against earnings.

In connection with the accounting for the merger, the combined company expects to record a significant amount of goodwill and other intangible assets. Under U.S. GAAP, the combined company must assess, at least annually and potentially more frequently, whether the value of its goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets have been impaired. Amortizing intangible assets will be assessed for impairment in the event of an impairment indicator. Any reduction or impairment of the value of goodwill or other intangible assets will result in a charge against earnings, which could materially adversely affect the combined company’s results of operations and shareholders’ equity in future periods.

The merger may not allow the combined company to maintain competitive global cash management and a competitive effective corporate tax rate.

Wright and Tornier cannot give any assurance as to what the combined company’s effective tax rate will be after the merger, because of, among other things, uncertainty regarding the tax policies of the jurisdictions where the combined company will operate and uncertainty regarding the level of net income that the combined company will earn in those jurisdictions in the future. The combined company’s actual effective tax rate may vary from this expectation and that variance may be material. Additionally, the tax laws of the Netherlands and other jurisdictions in which the combined company operates could change in the future, and such changes could cause a material change in the combined company’s effective tax rate.

The combined company’s provision for income taxes will be based on certain estimates and assumptions made by management in consultation with its tax and other advisors. The combined company’s group income tax rate will be affected by, among other factors, the amount of net income earned in its various operating jurisdictions, the availability of benefits under tax treaties, the rates of taxes payable in respect of that income, and withholding taxes on dividends paid from one jurisdiction to the next. The combined company will enter into many transactions and arrangements in the ordinary course of business in respect of which the tax treatment is not entirely certain. The combined company will therefore make estimates and judgments based on its knowledge and understanding of applicable tax laws and tax treaties, and the application of those tax laws and tax treaties to its business, in determining its consolidated tax provision. For example, certain countries could seek to tax a greater share of income than will be provided for by the combined company. The final outcome of any audits of Wright and Tornier by taxation authorities may differ from the estimates and assumptions the combined company may use in determining its consolidated tax provisions and accruals. This could result in a material adverse effect on the combined company’s consolidated income tax provision, financial condition and the net income for the period in which such determinations are made.

In particular, dividends, distributions and other intra-group payments from Wright or its U.S. affiliates to certain non-U.S. subsidiaries of the combined company may be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% unless the entity receiving such payments can demonstrate that it qualifies for reduction or elimination of the U.S. withholding tax under the income tax treaty (if any) between the United States and the jurisdiction in which the entity is organized or is a tax resident. In certain cases, treaty qualification may depend on whether at least 50% of the ultimate beneficial owners of the combined company are qualified residents of the United States or the treaty jurisdiction within the meaning of the applicable treaty. There can be no assurance that the combined company will satisfy this beneficial ownership requirement at the time when such dividends, distributions or other payments are made. Moreover, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (which is referred to in this document as the “IRS”) may challenge the combined company’s determination that the beneficial ownership requirement is satisfied. If the combined company does not satisfy the beneficial ownership requirement, such dividends, distributions or other payments may be subject to 30% U.S. withholding tax.

The combined company may face potential limitations on the utilization of Wright’s and its U.S. affiliates’ U.S. tax attributes following the combination.

Following the acquisition of a U.S. corporation by a non-U.S. corporation, Section 7874 of the Code can limit the ability of the acquired U.S. corporation and its U.S. affiliates to utilize U.S. tax attributes such as net operating losses and certain tax credits to offset U.S. taxable income resulting from certain transactions as more fully described in “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Potential Limitation on the Utilization of Wright’s (and Its U.S. Affiliates’) Tax Attributes ” beginning on page 155 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Based on the limited guidance available, Wright currently expects that following the combination, this limitation likely will not apply and as a result, it and its U.S. affiliates likely will not be limited by Section 7874 of the Code in their ability to utilize their U.S. tax attributes to offset their U.S. taxable income, if any, resulting from certain specified taxable transactions. However, no assurance can be given in this regard. See “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Potential Limitation on the Utilization of Wright’s (and Its U.S.

Affiliates’) Tax Attributes ” beginning on page 155 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. If, however, Section 7874 of the Code were to apply to the combination and if Wright or its U.S. affiliates engage in transactions that would generate U.S. taxable income subject to this limitation in the future, it could take Wright longer to use its net operating losses and tax credits and thus Wright could pay U.S. federal income tax sooner than it otherwise would have. Additionally, if the limitation were to apply and if Wright does not generate taxable income consistent with its expectations, it is possible that the limitation under Section 7874 on the utilization of U.S. tax attributes could prevent Wright and/or its U.S. affiliates from fully utilizing their U.S. tax attributes prior to their expiration.

Future changes to U.S. tax laws could materially affect the combined company, including its status as a non-U.S. corporation.

Under current U.S. federal income tax law, a corporation generally will be considered to be resident for U.S. federal income tax purposes in its place of organization or incorporation. Accordingly, under the generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rules, the combined company, a Netherlands incorporated entity, would be classified as a non-U.S. corporation (and, therefore, not a U.S. tax resident). Section 7874 of Code, however, contains specific rules (more fully discussed below) that can cause a non-U.S. corporation to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These rules are complex and there is little or no guidance as to their application.

We currently expect the combined company should be treated as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes, however, it is possible that the IRS could disagree with that position and assert that Section 7874 applies to treat the combined company as a U.S. corporation following the combination. In addition, new statutory or regulatory provisions under Section 7874 or otherwise could be enacted or promulgated that adversely affect the combined company’s status as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes, and any such provisions could have retroactive application. If the combined company were to be treated as a U.S. corporation for federal tax purposes, the combined company would be subject to U.S. corporate income tax on its worldwide income, and the income of its foreign subsidiaries would be subject to U.S. tax when repatriated or when deemed recognized under the U.S. tax rules for controlled foreign subsidiaries. In such a case, the combined company would be subject to substantially greater U.S. tax liability than currently contemplated. Moreover, in such a case, a non-U.S. shareholder of the combined company would be subject to U.S. withholding tax on the gross amount of any dividends paid by the combined company to such shareholder. Any such U.S. corporate income or withholding tax could be imposed in addition to, rather than in lieu of, any Dutch corporate income tax or withholding tax that may apply.

The combined company’s tax position may be adversely affected by changes in tax law relating to multinational corporations, or by increased scrutiny by tax authorities.

Recent legislative proposals have aimed to expand the scope of U.S. corporate tax residence, limit the ability of foreign-owned corporations to deduct interest expense, and make other changes in the taxation of multinational corporations.

Additionally, the U.S. Congress, government agencies in jurisdictions where the combined company and its affiliates do business, and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development have focused on issues related to the taxation of multinational corporations. One example is in the area of “base erosion and profit shifting,” where payments are made between affiliates from a jurisdiction with high tax rates to a jurisdiction with lower tax rates. As a result, the tax laws in the U.S., the Netherlands and other countries in which the combined company and its affiliates do business could change on a prospective or retroactive basis, and any such changes could impact the expected tax treatment for the combined company and adversely affect the combined company’s financial results.

Moreover, U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities may carefully scrutinize companies involved in cross-border business combinations, such as the combined company, which may lead such authorities to assert that the combined company owes additional taxes.

The exposure of the combined company to several tax jurisdictions may have an adverse effect on the combined company and this may increase the aggregate tax burden on the combined company and its shareholders.

The combined company is subject to a large number of different tax laws and regulations in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. These laws and regulations are often complex and are subject to varying interpretations. The combined effect of the application of tax laws, including the application or disapplication of tax treaties of one or more of these jurisdictions and their interpretation by the relevant tax authorities could, under certain circumstances, produce contradictory results. The combined company often relies on generally available interpretations of tax laws and regulations to determine the existence, scope and level of its liability to tax in the jurisdictions in which it operates. In addition, the combined company takes positions in the course of its business with respect to various tax matters, including the compliance with the arm’s length principles in respect of transactions with related parties, the tax deductibility of interest and other costs, and the amount of depreciation or write-down of our assets that we can recognize for tax purposes. There is no assurance that the tax authorities in the relevant jurisdictions will agree with such interpretation of these laws and regulations or with the positions taken by the combined company. If such tax positions are challenged by relevant tax authorities, the imposition of additional taxes could increase the effective tax rate and cost of operations of the combined company.

Furthermore, because the combined company is incorporated under Dutch law, it will be treated for Dutch corporate income tax purposes as a resident of the Netherlands. Based on the currently contemplated management structure of the combined company and the current tax laws of the United States and the Netherlands, as well as applicable income tax treaties and current interpretations thereof, the combined company expects to be a tax resident solely of the Netherlands. If the combined company were to be treated as a tax resident of a jurisdiction other than or in addition to the Netherlands, the combined company could be subject to corporate income tax in that other jurisdiction, and could be required to withhold tax on dividends paid by the combined company to its shareholders under the applicable laws of that jurisdiction.

U.S. investors may not be able to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts in civil and commercial matters against the combined company or members of its board of directors or officers.

The combined company will be organized under the laws of the Netherlands, and, as such, the rights of holders of the combined company ordinary shares and the civil liability of the combined company directors will be governed by the laws of the Netherlands and the combined company articles of association. A substantial portion of the combined company’s assets will be located outside of the United States. In addition, certain members of the combined company Board and certain officers of combined company, as well as certain experts named in this document, may reside outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States on the combined company or such individuals, or to enforce outside the United States any judgments obtained against such persons in U.S. courts in any action, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. In addition, it may be difficult for investors to enforce rights predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws in original actions brought in courts in jurisdictions located outside the United States (including the Netherlands) or enforce claims for punitive damages.

The United States and the Netherlands currently do not have a treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters (other than arbitral awards). A final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any federal or state court in the United States which is enforceable in the United States, whether or not predicated solely upon U.S. federal securities laws, would not automatically be recognized or enforceable in the Netherlands. In order to obtain a judgment which is enforceable in the Netherlands, the party in whose favor a final and conclusive judgment of the U.S. court has been rendered will be required to file its claim with a court of competent jurisdiction in the Netherlands. Such party may submit to a Dutch court the final judgment rendered by the U.S. court. If and to the extent that the Dutch court finds that the jurisdiction of the U.S. court has been based on grounds which are internationally acceptable and that proper

legal procedures have been observed, the Dutch court will generally tend to give binding effect to the judgment of the court of the United States without substantive re-examination or re-litigation on the merits of the subject matter, unless the judgment contravenes principles of public policy of the Netherlands.

There can be no assurance that U.S. investors will be able to enforce against the combined company or members of its board of directors, officers or certain experts named herein who are residents of the Netherlands or countries other than the United States any judgments obtained in U.S. courts in civil and commercial matters, including judgments under the U.S. federal securities laws.

As a Dutch public company with limited liability, the rights of our shareholders may be different from the rights of shareholders in companies governed by the laws of Delaware.

Tornier is a Dutch public company with limited liability ( naamloze vennootschap ). Tornier’s corporate affairs are governed by our articles of association and by the laws governing companies incorporated in the Netherlands. The rights of shareholders and the responsibilities of members of our board of directors may be different from those in companies governed by the laws of U.S. jurisdictions.

For example, resolutions of the general meeting of shareholders may be taken with majorities different from the majorities required for adoption of equivalent resolutions in a Delaware corporations. In addition, if a third party is liable to a Dutch company, under Dutch law shareholders generally do not have the right to bring an action on behalf of the company or to bring an action on their own behalf to recover damages sustained as a result of a decrease in value, or loss of an increase in value, of their ordinary shares. Only in the event that the cause of liability of such third party to the company also constitutes a tortious act directly against such shareholder, may that shareholder have an individual right of action against such third party on its own behalf to recover damages. The Dutch Civil Code provides for the possibility to initiate such actions collectively. A foundation or an association whose objective, as stated in its articles of association, is to protect the rights of persons having similar interests may institute a collective action. The collective action cannot result in an order for payment of monetary damages but may result in a declaratory judgment ( verklaring voor recht ), for example declaring that a party has acted wrongfully or has breached a fiduciary duty. The foundation or association and the defendant are permitted to reach (often on the basis of such declaratory judgment) a settlement which provides for monetary compensation for damages. A designated Dutch court may declare the settlement agreement binding upon all the injured parties, whereby an individual injured party will have the choice to opt-out within the term set by the court (at least three months). Such individual injured party, may also individually institute a civil claim for damages within the before mentioned term.

In the performance of its duties, our board of directors will be required by Dutch law to act in the interest of the company and its affiliated business, and to consider the interests of our company, our shareholders, our employees and other stakeholders in all cases with reasonableness and fairness. It is possible that some of these parties will have interests that are different from, or in addition to, interests of our shareholders.

If any of the events described in “Risks Related to Wright” or “Risks Related to Tornier” occur, those events could cause the potential benefits of the merger not to be realized.

Following completion of the merger, the combined company will be susceptible to many of the risks described under “ Risks Related to Wright ” and “ Risks Related to Tornier .” To the extent any of the events in the risks described in those sections occur, those events could cause the potential benefits of the merger not to be realized and the market price of the combined company’s ordinary shares to decline.

Dividends

Neither Wright nor Tornier has ever declared or paid cash dividends on its shares or ordinary shares, respectively. Wright and Tornier each currently intend to retain all future earnings for the operation and expansion of their businesses and do not anticipate declaring or paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any payment of cash dividends on Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares will be at the discretion of the Wright board of directors and Tornier board of directors, respectively, and will depend upon its results of operations, earnings, capital requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by the Wright board of directors or Tornier board of directors. Furthermore, the merger agreement restricts the ability of Wright and Tornier to declare or pay dividends during the interim period between the signing of the merger agreement and the completion of the merger. The credit agreement relating to Tornier’s senior secured term loans and senior secured revolving credit facility contains covenants limiting its ability to pay cash dividends. Such term loans and revolving credit facility, however, will be required to be repaid upon completion of the merger. Tornier expects that similar restrictions would also apply to the combined company after completion of the merger as a result of financing arrangements that may be in place upon completion of the merger or entered into thereafter.

At the Wright special meeting, Wright shareholders will vote upon:

•

Wright Proposal No. 1—Adoption of the Merger Agreement and Approval of the Transactions Contemplated Thereby . Adopt the merger agreement and approve the merger of Merger Sub with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier;

•

Wright Proposal No. 2—Advisory Vote on Specified Compensatory Arrangements . Approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger as disclosed in the section of the joint proxy statement/prospectus captioned “ The Merger—Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger—Quantification of Payments to Wrights’s Named Executive Officers ” beginning on page 121; and

Adjourn the Wright special meeting, or any adjournments thereof, to another time or place to approve any motion to adjourn the special meeting, or any adjournment thereof, to another time or place if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby.

Record Date; Outstanding Shares; Shares Entitled to Vote

Only holders of Wright shares as of the close of business on May 7, 2015, the record date for the Wright special meeting, will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Wright special meeting or any adjournments thereof. On the Wright record date, there were 51,401,197 Wright shares outstanding, held by 474 holders of record. Each outstanding Wright share is entitled to one vote on each proposal and any other matter properly coming before the Wright special meeting.

Quorum

The shareholders present, in person or by proxy, holding a majority of the outstanding Wright shares entitled to vote as of the record date will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Wright special meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as present at the meeting for the purpose of determining whether there is a quorum. See “—Shares Held in Street Name ” for an explanation of broker non-votes.

Vote Required; Recommendation of Wright Board of Directors

Proposal 1—Adoption of the Merger Agreement

Wright shareholders are considering and voting on a proposal to adopt the merger agreement and approve the merger of Merger Sub with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier. Wright shareholders should carefully read this joint proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the merger. In particular, Wright shareholders are directed to the merger agreement, which is attached as Annex A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The approval of the merger agreement requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Wright shares outstanding and entitled to vote on the merger agreement proposal. Because the vote required to approve this proposal is based upon the total number of Wright shares outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Wright record date, abstentions and failures to vote will have the same effect as a vote against the merger agreement proposal.

The Wright board of directors recommends that Wright shareholders vote “FOR” approval of the merger agreement.

Proposal 2—Advisory Vote on Specified Compensatory Arrangements

Wright shareholders are considering and voting on a proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger as disclosed in the section of the joint proxy statement/prospectus captioned “ The Merger—Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger—Quantification of Payments to Wright’s Named Executive Officers ” beginning on page 121.

Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Wright shares represented, in person or by proxy, at the Wright special meeting, although such vote will not be binding on Wright or its board of directors or any of its committees. Because the vote required to approve this proposal is based upon the total number of Wright shares represented in person or by proxy, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against this proposal.

The Wright board of directors of recommends that Wright shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger.

Proposal 3—Approval of Possible Adjournment of the Wright Special Meeting

Wright shareholders may be asked to vote on a proposal to adjourn the Wright special meeting, or any adjournments thereof, to approve any motion to adjourn the special meeting, or any adjournment thereof, to another time or place if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby. Approval of the Wright adjournment proposal requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Wright shares represented, in person or by proxy, at the special meeting, whether or not a quorum is present. Because the vote required to approve this proposal is based upon the total number of Wright shares represented in person or by proxy, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against this proposal.

The Wright board of directors recommends that Wright shareholders vote “FOR” the Wright adjournment proposal.

Share Ownership and Voting by Wright Officers and Directors

It is anticipated that as of the Wright record date, the Wright directors and executive officers will have the right to vote approximately 777,925 Wright shares, representing approximately 1.51% of the Wright shares then outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting. It is expected that the Wright directors and executive officers who are shareholders of Wright will vote “FOR” the proposal to approve the merger agreement and the merger, “FOR” the proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger and “FOR” the Wright adjournment proposal, although none of them has entered into any agreement requiring them to do so.

Voting Your Shares

Wright shareholders may vote in person at the Wright special meeting, or by executing and returning a proxy. Wright recommends that you submit your proxy even if you plan to attend the Wright special meeting. If you vote by proxy, you may change your vote, among other ways, if you attend and vote at the Wright special meeting.

If you own Wright shares in your own name, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the “shareholder of record.” If your Wright shares are held by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.”

If you are a Wright shareholder of record you may use the enclosed proxy card to tell the persons named as proxy holders how to vote your shares. If you properly complete, sign and date your proxy card, your shares will be voted in accordance with your instructions. The named proxy holders will vote all shares at the meeting for which proxy holders have been properly submitted and not revoked. If you sign and return your proxy card but do not mark your card to tell the proxy holders how to vote, your shares will be voted “FOR” the proposals to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, to approve the advisory proposal regarding the specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger, and to adjourn the Wright special meeting in accordance with the recommendations of the Wright board of directors.

Wright shareholders may also vote over the internet at www.proxyvote.com or by telephone toll free at (800) 322-2885 by close of business on the day immediately preceding the Wright special meeting. Voting instructions are printed on the proxy card or voting information form you received. Either method of submitting a proxy will enable your shares to be represented and voted at the special meeting.

Shares Held in Street Name

If your Wright shares are held in an account through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you must instruct the broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares by following the instructions that the broker, bank or other nominee provides you along with this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Your broker, bank or other nominee may have an earlier deadline by which you must provide instructions to it as to how to vote your shares, so you should read carefully the materials provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee.

If you do not provide voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, it will nevertheless be entitled to vote your shares on “discretionary” items but will not be permitted to do so on “non-discretionary” items. None of the proposals at the Wright special meeting are discretionary matters. As such, without your instructions, nominees do not have discretionary authority to vote on any of the proposals to be voted on at the Wright special meeting.

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee does not vote shares that it holds in “street name” on behalf of a beneficial owner, because the beneficial owner has not provided voting instructions to the nominee with respect to a non-discretionary item. Because brokers, banks and other nominees do not have discretionary voting with respect to any of the proposals, if a beneficial owner of Wright shares held in “street name” does not give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee for any proposal, then those shares will not be present in person or represented by proxy at the special meetings. As a result, it is expected that there will not be any broker non-votes in connection with any of the proposals.

If you are a Wright shareholder of record, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before it is voted at the special meeting by:

•

voting again by telephone or on the internet, because only your latest telephone or internet vote will be counted;

•

by properly completing, signing, dating, and returning another proxy card with a later date;

•

if you are a registered shareholder, by voting in person at the meeting;

•

if you are a registered shareholder, by giving written notice of such revocation to Wright’s corporate secretary prior to or at the meeting; or

•

if your shares are held in “street name” by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions of your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee regarding the revocation of proxies.

Your attendance at the Wright special meeting itself will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to Wright’s Corporate Secretary before the polls are closed.

Costs of Solicitation

Wright will bear the cost of soliciting proxies from its shareholders as well as the costs associated with the filing, printing, publication and mailing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus to Wright shareholders.

Wright will solicit proxies on behalf of its board of directors by mail, telephone, facsimile, or other electronic means or in person. Wright will make arrangements with brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees, and fiduciaries for forwarding proxy solicitation material to the beneficial owners of Wright shares held of record by those persons and will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses incurred in forwarding such proxy solicitation materials.

Wright has engaged a professional proxy solicitation firm, MacKenzie Partners, Inc., to assist in soliciting proxies for a fee not to exceed $25,000. In addition, Wright will reimburse MacKenzie Partners, Inc. for its reasonable disbursements.

Wright shareholders should not send in their common stock certificates with their proxy cards.

As described on page 7 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, Wright shareholders of record will be sent materials for exchanging Wright shares shortly after the effective time.

Other Business

The Wright board of directors is not aware of any other business to be acted upon at the Wright special meeting. If, however, other matters are properly brought before the Wright special meeting, the proxy holders will vote your shares in accordance with their best judgment.

Assistance

If you need assistance in completing your proxy card or have questions regarding the Wright special meeting, please contact MacKenzie Partners, Inc., the proxy solicitation agent for Wright, by mail at 105 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10016. Banks and brokers call collect: (212) 929-5500; all others call toll free: (800) 322-2885.

Record Date; Shares Entitled to Vote and Outstanding Tornier Ordinary Shares

Only shareholders of record of Tornier ordinary shares at the close of business on May 21, 2015, or the record date, according to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, Tornier’s registrar and transfer agent, or such shareholders’ proxies, will be entitled to vote at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting. As of May 7, 2015, the number of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares entitled to vote on each voting proposal at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting was 48,996,404. Each Tornier ordinary share entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter that is voted on at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

Vote Required

Under Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, the Tornier board of directors has the right to make binding nominations for open positions on the Tornier board of directors. The binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors may be overridden by a vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary general meeting if such two-thirds vote constitutes more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital, in which event a new meeting will be called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors would require majority of two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of the issued share capital. At an annual or extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, votes in respect of the appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors can only be cast for candidates named in the agenda of the meeting or the explanatory notes thereto. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed, unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors was set aside.

The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and each of the other proposals being submitted to a vote of the Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

Although there is no quorum requirement under Dutch law, Tornier’s articles of association provide that resolutions shall be passed by a simple majority of votes cast in a meeting where at least one-third of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares are represented. Broker non-votes will not count as shares present at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting or for the purpose of determining the number of votes cast. “Broker non-votes” are shares that are held in “street name” by a broker, bank or other nominee that indicates on its proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter.

Share Ownership and Voting by Tornier Officers and Directors

In connection with the execution of the merger agreement, Wright entered into a voting and support agreement with TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC and a shareholder holding 21.9% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions therein, such shareholder agreed to vote its Tornier ordinary shares in favor of the merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement.

Tornier Ordinary Shares Held in Street Name

If you own Tornier ordinary shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, such shares often are referred to as held in “street name,” and you, as the beneficial owner of those shares, do not appear in Tornier’s share register. For shares held in street name, there is a two-step process for distributing this joint proxy statement/prospectus, proxy card and other proxy materials and tabulating votes. Brokers inform Tornier how many of their clients own Tornier ordinary shares in street name, and the broker forwards this joint proxy statement/prospectus, proxy card and other proxy materials to those beneficial owners.

THE MERGER

This section and the section entitled “The Merger Agreement” describe the material aspects of the merger, including the merger agreement. While Wright and Tornier believe that this description covers the material terms of the merger and the merger agreement, it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read carefully this entire joint proxy statement/prospectus for a more complete understanding of the merger and the merger agreement, including the attached Annexes, and the other documents to which you are referred herein.

At the effective time of the merger, each outstanding Wright share (other than shares held by Tornier, Merger Sub, any wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier or Wright, or by Wright as treasury shares, which will be canceled and retired and cease to exist) will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 fully paid and nonassessable Tornier ordinary shares. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the merger.

Tornier shareholders will not receive any merger consideration and will continue to hold their Tornier ordinary shares after the merger.

Background of the Merger

In order to assist Tornier’s management in exploring, reviewing and evaluating potential opportunities for strategic alternatives and integrating the business and operations of acquired companies, the Tornier board of directors formed a special committee in 2012. That special committee became a standing committee of the Tornier board of directors on October 29, 2013 entitled the strategic transactions committee. The primary responsibilities of the strategic transactions committee include, among others: (1) reviewing and evaluating potential opportunities for strategic business combinations, acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, divestitures, investments and similar strategic transactions involving Tornier; (2) reviewing integration efforts with respect to completed strategic transactions; (3) assisting management in developing, implementing and adhering to a strategic plan and direction for activities with respect to strategic transactions; and (4) reviewing and evaluating potential opportunities for restructuring Tornier’s business in response to completed strategic transactions or otherwise in an effort to realize anticipated cost and expense savings for, and other benefits, to Tornier.

As part of the ongoing evaluation of Wright’s business, members of Wright’s senior management and the Wright board of directors have periodically reviewed and assessed Wright’s financial performance and operations, financial condition and industry and regulatory developments in the context of Wright’s long-term strategic goals and plans, including the consideration of potential opportunities to enhance shareholder value through licensing transactions, acquisitions, business combinations and other financial and strategic alternatives. During the past few years, as part of its ongoing review and assessment of opportunities to enhance shareholder value, Wright evaluated a significant number of potential strategic transactions, including potential combinations that could, among other

things, enhance Wright’s ability to implement its long-term strategy of expanding its portfolio of products and geographic reach to become one of the largest focused players in the orthopaedic extremities market. As part of this strategy, Wright pursued several acquisition opportunities that would streamline its focus and expand its reach. In November 2012, Wright announced the acquisition of BioMimetic Therapeutics, Inc., and its biologics platform, which was completed in March 2013. In October 2013, Wright announced the acquisition of Biotech International, a French orthopaedic extremities company, which transaction significantly expanded Wright’s direct sales channel in France and international distribution network, and which was completed in November 2013. In January 2014, Wright consummated the divestiture of its OrthoRecon business, which transaction refocused Wright’s business into a pure-play global extremities company. Also in early 2014, Wright completed the acquisition of Solana Surgical, LLC and OrthoPro, LLC, two privately-held extremity companies.

Throughout 2013 and 2014, Wright met periodically with outside advisors to learn about transactions and other developments in the medical device industry and to discuss potential opportunities for Wright. On November 20, 2013, at a meeting with representatives from J.P. Morgan, the team from J.P. Morgan presented to Wright an overview of several potential acquisition and business combination opportunities and raised the prospect of possible transactions with a number of companies, including Tornier.

On December 3, 2013, at the Piper Jaffray Annual Healthcare Conference in New York, David H. Mowry, Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s President and Chief Executive Officer, had a brief initial conversation during which the topic of a potential business combination transaction was discussed. It was decided that representatives of the two companies would attempt to find time for further discussion during the J.P. Morgan Annual Healthcare Conference in San Francisco, California, to be held from January 13, 2014 to January 16, 2014. Mr. Palmisano discussed the meeting with the Wright board of directors at a regularly scheduled meeting on December 10, 2013, and the Wright board of directors authorized him to continue discussions in order to obtain more information about a potential transaction relating to Tornier, and also to investigate additional strategic opportunities consistent with Wright’s practice.

On January 9, 2014, Shawn McCormick, Tornier’s Chief Financial Officer, contacted Mr. Palmisano, and Lance Berry, Wright’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, to propose a meeting time during the J.P. Morgan Annual Healthcare Conference. Mr. McCormick also forwarded an initial draft of a confidentiality agreement.

On January 13, 2014, Mr. Mowry and Mr. McCormick had a discussion with Mr. Palmisano in San Francisco, California during the J.P. Morgan Annual Healthcare Conference. During the conversation, Mr. Palmisano indicated that Wright was open to exploring, on a preliminary basis, a potential business combination transaction between Wright and Tornier. Mr. Mowry responded that Tornier was not for sale but that the Tornier board of directors would consider any serious proposal. At this meeting, Mr. Mowry and Mr. McCormick spoke generally about Tornier’s business and Mr. Palmisano spoke generally about Wright’s business. The parties discussed a variety of opportunities and challenges facing the orthopaedic industry and their respective businesses, the recent consolidation trend in the industry and the consequent importance of scale to the future of both companies. It was decided that the parties would meet again during the following week in Memphis, Tennessee to have a more detailed discussion.

Following the meeting at the J.P. Morgan conference in San Francisco, Mr. Mowry contacted Sean D. Carney, Tornier’s Chairman of the Board, and informed Mr. Carney of the substance of the meeting with Wright’s management and the plan to reconvene in Memphis, Tennessee. Mr. McCormick and Mr. Palmisano exchanged emails periodically over the next two weeks, discussing the terms of a potential confidentiality agreement and scheduling the time and location for the meeting in Memphis.

Later in January 2014, Mr. Mowry contacted Mr. Palmisano and discussed the type of information that Tornier was willing to share with Wright if the parties entered into a mutual confidentiality agreement.

The meeting in Memphis, Tennessee occurred on January 22, 2014. Present at this meeting were Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Berry from Wright and Mr. Mowry and Mr. McCormick from Tornier. At this meeting,

Mr. Mowry and Mr. McCormick made a presentation regarding Tornier’s business and both parties exchanged additional information regarding their respective businesses, including products, markets and organizational structures. The parties discussed again the various opportunities and challenges facing the orthopaedic industry and their respective businesses, including the U.S. sales organization transitions that Tornier was in the process of implementing and Wright’s recent completion of its OrthoRecon divestiture. The parties again discussed the recent consolidation trend in the industry and the consequent importance of scale to the future of both companies. The parties also discussed their respective product portfolios and pipelines and possible benefits of a combination between the two companies to their respective businesses, shareholders, customers and employees. The parties explored whether there was a sound strategic and operational rationale for a combination of the two companies. No specific transaction terms were discussed. During the meeting, representatives from Tornier and Wright entered into a mutual confidentiality agreement to facilitate the preliminary exchange of non-public information between the two companies and their advisors for the purpose of exploring a potential transaction. The confidentiality agreement did not contain a standstill provision. Upon conclusion of this meeting, Mr. Mowry indicated that Tornier’s management would discuss the possibility of a potential transaction with Wright with the Tornier board of directors at its next regular meeting and Mr. Palmisano indicated that he would discuss the possibility of a potential transaction with Tornier with the Wright board of directors.

Following the meeting, members of Wright’s management considered that Warburg Pincus, LLC, a U.S. private equity firm, previously held a majority stake in Tornier, and that Warburg Pincus continued to hold a substantial position in Tornier. They also discussed the fact that Warburg had previously been a majority shareholder of Wright and that Mr. Palmisano had previously been President and Chief Executive Officer of ev3 Inc., and member of the board of directors of Bausch & Lomb Inc., both former Warburg Pincus portfolio companies. Members of management considered further that, given Warburg’s investment in Tornier, and the size and breadth of its other investments, it was advisable for Wright to seek the advice of more than one advisor in the context of its initial discussions with Tornier and other potential strategic partners.

To facilitate assessment of its strategic alternatives, Wright determined to work also with Perella Weinberg, and determined to obtain consulting services from Vikram Malik of Crown Sterling LLC. Crown Sterling is an independent financial consultant with no history of any relationship with Warburg Pincus or with the investment banking firms likely to be financial advisors in any transaction between Wright and Tornier. On January 28, 2014, the management team of Wright had a meeting in Memphis, Tennessee with advisors from Perella Weinberg and Mr. Malik from Crown Sterling. Mr. Malik presented a summary of possible parties to strategic transactions, including companies that might be interested in acquiring Wright and companies that Wright might be interested in acquiring, which list included Tornier.

On February 13, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a regular meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, during which Mr. Mowry summarized the preliminary discussions between Tornier’s management and Wright’s management at the two meetings in January 2014. The Tornier board of directors directed Tornier’s management to continue preliminary discussions with Wright in order to assess the feasibility and merits of a potential transaction with Wright.

On February 13, 2014, at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Wright board of directors, Mr. Palmisano introduced Mr. Malik to the Wright board of directors and explained that he had been retained as an independent consultant to help the management team analyze strategic possibilities for Wright. Mr. Malik presented a strategic overview of the healthcare market from a variety of perspectives, including a summary of possible strategic transactions that it had previously discussed with Wright’s management team, including strategic business combinations with several companies that participate and compete in the medical device industry, including Tornier. Following the presentation, after discussion and deliberation, the Wright board of directors charged Wright’s management with seeking to determine potential third party interest in a potential strategic transaction with Wright.

Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Mowry spoke by telephone multiple times in the early spring of 2014. In each conversation, Mr. Palmisano reiterated Wright’s interest in a transaction generally but stressed that, due to Wright’s recent acquisitions and disposition, the first part of 2014 would not be the proper time for a strategic transaction.

In March 2014, Wright’s management also engaged J.P. Morgan to provide assistance as Wright undertook conversations with potential strategic partners. On March 31, representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg spoke with members of management to review the business prospects and status of discussions to date with potential strategic partners, including Tornier.

On April 28, 2014, during a special telephonic meeting of the Wright board of directors, Wright’s management and representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg provided the Wright board of directors information on the status of their efforts to determine whether third parties in addition to Tornier might have interest in a potential transaction with Wright. The representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg described the process they had been conducting and the varying degrees of interest expressed by potential strategic counterparties. They discussed how potential strategic partners had been identified based on, among other factors, potential complementary business attributes and likelihood of interest based upon respective sizes, prospects and historical acquisition activity. Mr. Palmisano updated the Wright board of directors on his discussions with Tornier during the early part of 2014, and informed the directors that he had deferred further substantive discussions until after the upcoming regularly scheduled Wright board of directors meeting. After discussion, the Wright board of directors determined to revisit assessment of potential strategic transaction partners at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Wright board of directors.

On April 29, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a regular meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, during which Mr. Mowry summarized his prior conversations with Mr. Palmisano since the February 13, 2014 Tornier board meeting. The Tornier board discussed the competitive landscape in the orthopaedic industry, especially in light of ongoing industry consolidations. The Tornier board of directors directed management to continue discussions with Wright in order to assess the feasibility and merits of potential transaction.

At a regularly scheduled meeting of the Wright board of directors on May 13, 2014, Wright’s management and representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg updated the Wright board of directors on the status of their efforts to determine third party interest in a potential transaction with Wright. Wright’s management and representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg reported on discussions they had conducted with Company A, and described for the Wright board of directors the anticipated meeting with Company A scheduled in the coming weeks. In addition, they reported that representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg had reached out on behalf of Wright to Companies B, C and D. After preliminary discussions about the merits of a potential transaction, Company B and Wright entered into a confidentiality agreement; however, Company B ended discussions shortly before announcing a significant business combination transaction. Representatives from Wright also negotiated a confidentiality agreement with Company C. After multiple preliminary discussions, Company C indicated that a potential transaction with Wright was not a priority at the time, and Company C ended discussions before entering into a confidentiality agreement. Accordingly, no confidential information was provided to Company C. Wright’s management and representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg also reported on discussions with the head of strategy and business development at Company D about the possibility of exploring a possible transaction. The financial advisors reported that Company D did not anticipate engaging in a transaction with Wright in the near term. No further discussions were held with Company D. Also at the meeting, Ropes & Gray LLP, Wright’s outside legal counsel, reviewed the fiduciary duties of the Wright board of directors and discussed application in the context of a potential business combination transaction. After additional discussion, the Wright board of directors authorized Wright’s management to continue its efforts to explore the potential interest of third parties in a strategic transaction with Wright.

On May 20, 2014, Mr. Palmisano, Mr. Berry, James Lightman, Wright’s Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, and Pascal E.R. Girin, Wright’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, and other members of Wright’s management met with representatives from Company A, together with

representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg. Wright’s management team presented a review of Wright’s global extremity and biologics business, including current operations, the progress of the integration of its most recent acquisitions and its long-term commercial and strategic plans.

On June 3, 2014, Mr. Mowry and Mr. McCormick met in Boston, Massachusetts with several members of Wright’s executive management team, including Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Berry. At this meeting, Tornier and Wright again discussed the various opportunities and challenges facing their respective businesses, the consolidation trend in the industry and the consequent importance of scale to the future of both companies. The parties further discussed the potential strategic and operational rationale for a combination of the two companies. Tornier discussed its preliminary assessment of potential synergies that might be achieved by an acquirer of Tornier. No specific transaction terms were discussed. At the conclusion of the meeting, Mr. Mowry informed Mr. Palmisano that he would discuss the possibility of a potential transaction with Wright with Tornier’s Chairman of the Board and strategic transactions committee. Mr. Palmisano informed Tornier’s management that he had had preliminary discussions with the Wright board of directors regarding a potential transaction with Tornier.

On June 5, 2014, the strategic transactions committee of the Tornier board of directors held a special telephonic meeting to receive an update on Tornier’s management’s discussions with Wright. Several members of Tornier’s senior management also participated. Members of Tornier’s management reported on the June 3, 2014 meeting with Wright and other conversations to date with Wright. The strategic transactions committee directed Tornier’s management to continue to explore a possible transaction with Wright. The strategic transactions committee also directed Tornier’s management to negotiate engagement terms with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“BofA Merrill Lynch”) to serve as Tornier’s financial advisor in connection with a possible transaction, and recommended that BofA Merrill Lynch act as financial advisor to the Tornier board of directors.

On June 19, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a special telephonic meeting to receive an update regarding a possible business combination transaction with Wright. Several members of Tornier’s senior management and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also participated for certain portions of the meeting. Members of Tornier’s management summarized its discussions during the June 3, 2014 meeting with Wright. Kevin M. Klemz, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, discussed with the Tornier board of directors its fiduciary duties in the context of reviewing and analyzing a business combination transaction. The Tornier board of directors and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed preliminary illustrative financial analyses of Tornier on a stand-alone basis and of a potential combination of Tornier and Wright. The Tornier board of directors and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also reviewed various strategic alternatives available to Tornier, including remaining a stand-alone company, completing one or more acquisitions, completing a more transformational combination with a similar like-sized company, like Wright, or being acquired by a larger company. The Tornier board of directors and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also discussed various potential combination partners and potential acquirers. After discussions among themselves and with the representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch, the Tornier board of directors determined, that Tornier’s positive stand-alone momentum created as a result of its continued execution on its business strategy during the past several quarters coupled with the interest expressed by Wright to explore a potential transaction with Tornier warranted a deeper evaluation by the Tornier board of the various strategic alternatives available to Tornier to enhance shareholder value. The Tornier board approved the terms of an engagement letter with BofA Merrill Lynch. After a discussion among themselves and with the representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch, the Tornier board directed BofA Merrill Lynch to contact six identified companies, other than Wright, to gauge their interest in a possible business combination transaction with Tornier. The Tornier board of directors selected the six companies based on, among other things, the perceived strategic fit of their respective businesses with Tornier’s business, the likelihood that they might be interested in a potential transaction with Tornier based upon their position in the market place, historical contacts with Tornier and historical acquisition activity, including their prior experience making large acquisitions, and their perceived ability to complete a transaction with Tornier in a timely manner. The Tornier board of directors and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch discussed

the possibility of Tornier soliciting interest in a potential transaction from private equity firms and other financial investors. After this discussion, the Tornier board of directors determined that financial buyers would be unlikely to be able to match the economics that could be proposed by Wright or other potential strategic partners or acquirers due to the synergies that those strategic partners or acquirers would expect to be able to realize through a combination or acquisition. The Tornier board of directors delegated to the strategic transactions committee specific additional authority to provide Tornier’s management with prompt guidance and advice in connection with the process of exploring strategic alternatives.

Following the June 19, 2014 Tornier board of directors meeting, representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch contacted Wright and the six other companies selected by the Tornier board of directors. The representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch informed Wright and these six other companies that after entering into a mutual confidentiality agreement with Tornier, Tornier would share with them certain non-public information, including financial projections, and would arrange meetings with Tornier’s management. Of these six other companies, three of them (referred to herein as Company X, Company Y and Company Z), in addition to Wright, indicated an interest in receiving more information about Tornier and its business.

On July 1, 2014, Tornier and BofA Merrill Lynch entered into an engagement letter pursuant to which BofA Merrill Lynch agreed to act as Tornier’s financial advisor in connection with a possible business combination transaction.

On July 10, 2014, Tornier entered into a mutual confidentiality agreement with Company X.

On July 10, as a result of public events relating to Company D, representatives from Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan reached out to representatives from Company D, at the direction of members of Wright’s management team, to gauge the potential for Company D to have a renewed interest in a potential strategic transaction with Wright. Representatives from Company D confirmed that no developments had occurred that might change the outcome of the earlier discussions with Wright.

On July 11, 2014, Tornier entered into a mutual confidentiality agreement with Company Y.

On July 17, 2014, Mr. Mowry, Mr. McCormick, Mr. Klemz, James Erickson, Tornier’s Vice President, Global Finance, and Jeff Kogl, Tornier’s Vice President, Strategy and Corporate Development, met with Mr. Palmisano, Mr. Berry, Mr. Girin, Mr. Lightman, Ms. Andrews and Mr. White in Minneapolis, Minnesota to share additional information regarding their respective businesses and to continue to explore whether there was a sound strategic and operational rationale for a combination of the two companies. During this meeting, members of Tornier’s management and Wright’s management presented information concerning their respective internal management structure, business strategy, product portfolio, product pipeline, financial information and financial guidance. Preliminary discussions took place regarding potential strategic synergies that might result from the combination of the two companies. No specific transaction terms were discussed. Representatives from BofA Merrill Lynch and Wright’s financial advisors, Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan, also were present at this meeting.

From July 18 to July 30, 2014, Tornier negotiated and exchanged drafts of a mutual confidentiality agreement with Company Z.

On July 22, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a regular meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, during which Tornier’s management updated the directors regarding the process to seek strategic alternatives and the status of discussions with parties, including Wright. Tornier’s management informed the Tornier board of directors that several of the companies identified as potential business combination partners or acquirers had indicated a lack of interest in engaging in a transaction with Tornier at this time due to distraction with integration of larger transactions, valuation sensitivity and limited interest in Tornier’s product portfolio. Tornier’s management summarized its discussions with Wright’s management at the July 17, 2014 meeting and

shared the results of its ongoing due diligence investigation of Wright, including in particular, Wright’s financial projections and contingent liabilities. Tornier’s management also discussed potential cost and revenue synergies that had been identified to date by Tornier. The Tornier board directed Tornier’s management to continue discussions with Wright and any other potentially interested parties and to continue to report progress of any such discussions to the strategic transactions committee, and as deemed appropriate by the strategic transactions committee, the full Tornier board of directors.

On July 24, 2014, at the direction of Tornier, BofA Merrill Lynch sent a confidential information memorandum and process letter to Company X and Company Y requesting written preliminary, non-binding indications of interest by August 15, 2014.

On July 29, 2014, BofA Merrill Lynch sent representatives of Tornier a memorandum summarizing certain information concerning BofA Merrill Lynch’s material investment and corporate banking relationships with Wright, Company X, Company Y, Company Z and three other companies that the Tornier board of directors authorized BofA Merrill Lynch to contact to gauge their interest in a possible business combination transaction with Tornier. The memorandum also disclosed the participation of BofA Merrill Lynch affiliate Bank of America, N.A. (“BANA”), acting as principal for its own account, in certain bond hedge and warrant transactions, which are referred to as the Call Spread Transactions, entered into by Wright in connection with Wright’s issuance in August 2012 of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% cash convertible senior notes due 2017, and that a potential acquisition of Tornier by Wright may trigger certain adjustments under the Call Spread Transactions.

At a regularly scheduled meeting of the Wright board on July 29, 2014, representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg reviewed the outcome of the discussions with Company A that had occurred after the May 15 meeting of the Wright board of directors. They reported that while both Company A and members of Wright’s management found a potential combination strategically compelling, the sides had widely disparate views on valuation. They also reviewed the earlier discussions with Company B, Company C and Company D that had been reported to the Wright board of directors at the May 13 meeting of the Wright board of directors. Wright’s financial advisors also provided a preliminary analysis of a potential combination with Tornier. The Wright board discussed the information presented at the meeting and authorized Wright’s management to further explore a potential stock-for-stock merger with Tornier, including by making a non-binding proposal for a combination in which Wright’s shareholders would retain ownership of at least 55% of a combined company.

On August 6, 2014, Company Z indicated to BofA Merrill Lynch that Company Z was not interested in pursuing a transaction with Tornier at this time and would not be entering into a confidentiality agreement with Tornier or participating in the process.

On August 11, 2014, Company Y indicated to BofA Merrill Lynch that Company Y was not interested in pursuing a transaction with Tornier at this time and would not be submitting an indication of interest.

On August 13, 2014, Mr. Palmisano proposed by telephone to Mr. Mowry a combination with Tornier contemplating post-transaction ownership of approximately 56% for former Wright shareholders and 44% for former Tornier shareholders. He indicated that Wright would be sending Tornier a written preliminary, non-binding indicative term sheet outlining the terms of a proposed business combination transaction between Wright and Tornier and noted that any transaction would be subject to legal, accounting and business due diligence by Wright and approval of the transaction by the Wright board of directors. Mr. Palmisano also stated that the term sheet would reflect that: (1) the headquarters of the combined company would be in Memphis, Tennessee; (2) the board of directors of the combined company would be comprised of five independent members nominated by the Wright board, Mr. Palmisano and four independent members from the Tornier board; (3) the chairman of the board of directors of the combined company would be open to discussion; (4) the domicile of the combined company would be open to discussion; (5) appointment of certain members of the proposed executive team for the combined company and (6) Wright would require that Tornier enter into an agreement providing at for a 45-day exclusivity period. Later in the day on August 13, 2014, Mr. Mowry received an e-mail from

Mr. Palmisano containing a written preliminary, non-binding indicative term sheet outlining the proposed terms and conditions of a potential business combination transaction between Wright and Tornier.

On August 13, 2014, BofA Merrill Lynch received a written preliminary, non-binding indication of interest from Company X to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of Tornier at an implied price per share of $24.00, to be paid approximately 50% in cash and 50% in Company X common stock. The indication of interest stated that Company X expected to take 30 days to complete its due diligence process and negotiate the definitive documentation and that the definitive documentation would not contain a financing condition. The indication of interest also stated that the combined company would be domiciled outside the United States.

On August 19, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a special telephonic meeting to review and discuss the indications of interest received by Tornier. Several members of Tornier’s senior management and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch participated as well for certain portions of the meeting. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed the process conducted to date and summarized the responses of the six companies, in addition to Wright, contacted by BofA Merrill Lynch at the direction of the Tornier board of directors. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch informed the Tornier board of directors that of the six companies contacted by BofA Merrill Lynch, three of them were sent a confidentiality agreement, two executed a confidentiality agreement and one of them, Company X, submitted a preliminary, non-binding written indication of interest, in addition to Wright. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch informed the Tornier board of directors that the parties opting not to participate in the process had provided reasons for not continuing to participate, including distraction with integration of larger transactions, valuation sensitivity and limited interest in Tornier’s product portfolio at this time. The Tornier board of directors discussed with representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch the material terms of Wright’s and Company X’s indications of interest. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also presented an illustrative preliminary financial analysis of Tornier and Wright combined and Tornier and Company X combined. The Tornier board discussed the two indications of interest and asked questions of Tornier’s management and BofA Merrill Lynch. In reviewing the indications of interest, the Tornier board considered, among other things, the preliminary financial analyses by BofA Merrill Lynch, the timing and risks associated with Tornier’s business plan, the competitive landscape of the orthopaedic industry, the optimal timing for a sale of the company or a transformational transaction, Wright’s proposed terms regarding governance of the combined company, including in particular, the composition of the board of directors, and Wright’s request for exclusivity. The Tornier board determined that it was not in the best interests of the Tornier shareholders to enter into an exclusivity agreement with Wright under the current terms of Wright’s proposal. After discussing next steps and timing, the Tornier board directed BofA Merrill Lynch to provide feedback to both Wright and Company X that their respective indications of interest required improvement before they would be of interest to the Tornier board. The Tornier board instructed BofA Merrill Lynch to provide feedback to Wright that the terms of any revised proposal by Wright should be more in line with a “merger of equals” transaction where there would be a post-transaction 50%/50% split of both economic ownership and governance of the combined company and should reflect an implied price per Tornier ordinary share of around $30.00. The Tornier board also directed BofA Merrill Lynch to inform Wright that Tornier was not willing to enter into an exclusivity agreement at this time, and that Tornier desired to enter into a mutual confidentiality agreement amended to include a standstill provision. The Tornier board of directors directed BofA Merrill Lynch to inform Company X that Tornier’s management would make a presentation to, and spend additional time with, Company X’s management to help Company X better understand Tornier’s business and potential synergies between the two companies to enable Company X to be in a position to improve its offer.

On August 22, 2014, a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch contacted representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan and communicated the feedback from the Tornier board that the terms of Wright’s proposal were insufficient and that if Wright wanted to proceed to the next phase of the process its indication of interest would need to be revised to reflect terms more in line with a “merger of equals” transaction in order to be of interest to the Tornier board of directors. At the direction of the Tornier board of directors, BofA Merrill Lynch also communicated to Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan that Wright and Tornier would need to execute another mutual confidentiality agreement to include a standstill provision.

On August 26, 2014, during a special, telephonic meeting, Mr. Palmisano updated the Wright board on the status of Wright’s negotiations with Tornier. Mr. Palmisano informed the Wright board that Tornier communicated that it would require a significantly higher share of the ownership of the combined company than contemplated by Wright’s prior proposal; in particular, Tornier sought a 50%/50% post-merger ownership split between the former Wright shareholders and the former Tornier shareholders. The representative from J.P. Morgan observed that at present valuations, a 50%/50% ownership split would equate to a $30 per share price for Tornier and an implied premium of 40-45% to its current share price. He also reported that Tornier’s management expected that Tornier would report strong financial results for the third quarter of 2014 and increase its financial guidance for 2014, and that this was likely to prompt a significant increase in Tornier’s share price. A discussion ensued after which the Wright board agreed that Tornier’s counter-proposal was not acceptable. The Wright board next considered a potential response to Tornier. In the course of this discussion, Mr. Palmisano advised the Wright board of directors that Wright’s management and financial advisors believed that a transaction continued to make strategic sense and that a 54%/46% post-merger ownership split would remain attractive for Wright. A lengthy discussion ensued, during which the Wright board considered various factors relevant to a proposed combination with Tornier, including the views of Wright’s management and its financial advisors, Wright’s third quarter performance to date, Tornier’s present and anticipated growth trajectory, Tornier’s growth trajectory in upper extremities, and the anticipated synergies of the transaction. In addition, the Wright board discussed the recent outreach to Company D and the negative response received by Wright’s financial advisors. Thereafter, the Wright board of directors unanimously directed Wright’s management to continue negotiations for a potential combination with Tornier based on a revised proposal which included a 54%/46% post-merger ownership split in favor of Wright shareholders.

On August 28, 2014, representatives of Company X attended a presentation by Tornier’s management in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The following members of Tornier’s management were in attendance at the meeting: Mr. Mowry, Mr. McCormick, Mr. Klemz, Mr. Erickson, Mr. Kogl and Gordon W. Van Ummersen, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Global Product Delivery.

On August 29, 2014, at the direction of Tornier, a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch contacted Company X’s business development team and outlined the process for Company X submitting a revised indication of interest to Tornier.

On September 3, 2014, Company X’s business development team indicated to BofA Merrill Lynch that Company X would not increase the value of its initial indication of interest and would not be participating any further in the process.

On September 3, 2014, representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan contacted BofA Merrill Lynch and indicated that Wright did not believe it could bridge the valuation gap between its initial indication of interest and a “merger of equals” transaction and that Wright was not planning to submit a revised indication of interest to Tornier. Also on September 3, Mr. Palmisano spoke with Sean Carney, Chairman of the Board of Tornier. Mr. Carney expressed that he understood that Mr. Palmisano was not authorized to negotiate 50%/50% merger of equals, and expressed his desire to continue to negotiate. Mr. Palmisano affirmed Mr. Carney’s understanding, and Mr. Carney invited Mr. Palmisano to make an alternative proposal.

On September 4, 2014, after speaking on an individual basis with members of the Wright board, Mr. Palmisano spoke with Mr. Carney. Mr. Palmisano indicated that Wright would be willing to move forward with discussions based on an expectation that relative ownership of the combined company would be allocated 54% to former Wright shareholders and 46% to former Tornier shareholders. Mr. Carney indicated that he would discuss this proposed approach with the Tornier board.

On September 5, 2014, a representative from J.P. Morgan attended the U.S. Open in New York with Elizabeth Weatherman, a member of the Tornier board of directors, who was designated by an affiliate of Warburg Pincus pursuant to a securityholders’ agreement. They discussed the progress of the discussions between Wright and Tornier.

On September 5, 2014, the strategic transactions committee of the Tornier board of directors held a special telephonic meeting to receive an update on the strategic alternatives process. Several members of Tornier’s senior management and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also participated for certain portions of the meeting. Tornier’s management reported on the due diligence meeting with representatives of Company X and Company X’s decision to remove itself from the process. Tornier’s management also reported on BofA Merrill Lynch’s discussions with Wright and Wright’s most recent communication that it was not planning to submit a revised indication of interest. The strategic transaction committee instructed BofA Merrill Lynch and Tornier’s management to allow some time to pass before engaging in additional discussions with Wright or taking additional steps in the strategic alternatives process.

On September 11, 2014, a telephone conversation occurred between Mr. Carney and Mr. Palmisano during which Mr. Carney communicated to Mr. Palmisano that if a 50%/50% post-merger ownership split between Wright and Tornier was not acceptable to Wright, then Wright may want to consider submitting a revised indication of interest that represented a different post-merger ownership split, but that the more the terms reflected a “merger of equals” transaction, the more of interest the revised indication of interest would be to the Tornier board of directors.

On September 12, 2014, through its financial advisors, Wright forwarded to Tornier a written, nonbinding indication of interest as well as an exclusivity agreement. The revised indication of interest proposed a stock-for-stock transaction that would result in a post-merger ownership split of 54% for former Wright shareholders and 46% for former Tornier shareholders and also proposed that (1) the headquarters of the combined company would be in Memphis, Tennessee; (2) the board of directors of the combined company would be comprised of five independent members nominated by the Wright board of directors, Mr. Palmisano and four independent members from the Tornier board of directors; (3) the chairman of the board of directors of the combined company would be nominated by Tornier; (4) other executive management positions would be open to discussion; and (5) domicile of the combined company would be open to discussion. Wright conditioned its willingness to advance discussions on Tornier entering into a 45 day period of exclusive negotiations. Later that day Mr. Carney and Mr. Palmisano discussed the written proposal by telephone.

On September 15, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a special telephonic meeting to receive an update on the strategic alternatives process. Several members of Tornier’s management team and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also participated for certain portions of the meeting. Tornier’s management summarized the process since the August 19, 2014 Tornier board of directors meeting and informed the Tornier board of directors of the receipt of the revised indication of interest from Wright and Company X’s unwillingness to increase the value of its indication of interest and decision to exit from the process. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch summarized the material terms of Wright’s revised indication of interest and highlighted the changes in the revised indication of interest from Wright’s previous indication of interest delivered to Tornier in August 2014. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch presented a preliminary financial analysis of the offer. The Tornier board of directors discussed the proposed governance aspects of Wright’s indication of interest. At the conclusion of the meeting, the Tornier board of directors directed the representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch to inform representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan that the governance terms of Wright’s proposal, including in particular, the composition of the board of directors of the combined company and management of the combined company, would need to be more in line with a “merger of equals” transaction in order to be of interest to the Tornier board of directors. The Tornier board of directors also directed the representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch to inform representatives of J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg that the composition of the board of directors of the combined company would need to be evenly split between the two companies and that both Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Mowry would need to be on the board of directors of the combined company, and that Mr. Mowry would need to be appointed chief operating officer of the combined company. The Tornier board of directors then authorized Tornier’s management to enter into the exclusivity agreement with Wright. The Tornier board of directors instructed Tornier’s management to continue to keep the Tornier board of directors apprised of further discussions and developments with respect to a potential transaction with Wright.

On September 15, 2014, a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch contacted representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan and informed them that the governance terms of Wright’s proposal, including in particular, the composition of the board of directors of the combined company and management of the combined company, needed to be revised to be more in line with a “merger of equals” transaction in order to be of interest to the Tornier board of directors and that specifically, the composition of the board of directors of the combined company needed to be split evenly between the two companies and that both Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Mowry would need to be on the board of directors of the combined company. They also conveyed the Tornier position that Mr. Mowry should be appointed chief operating officer of the combined company. At the direction of Tornier, BofA Merrill Lynch also communicated that the Tornier board of directors was supportive of a 30-day exclusive negotiation period, rather than the 45-day period previously proposed by Wright.

Later in the day, on September 15, 2014, representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan contacted a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch and informed him that Mr. Palmisano was supportive of Tornier’s counter-proposal on the composition of the board of directors and management of the combined company, but would need to seek input from the Wright board of these terms.

On September 15, 2014, at the direction of Tornier, a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch sent a confidentiality agreement, including standstill provisions, and Tornier’s mark-up of Wright’s exclusivity agreement to representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan.

The Wright board held a special telephonic meeting on September 17, 2014. Mr. Palmisano provided the Wright board with an update on the negotiations with Tornier since the August 26 meeting. He reported that, pursuant to the authority granted by the Wright board at the August 26 meeting, he had a telephone conversation with Sean Carney, Tornier’s Chairman of the Board, on September 3, during which he outlined Wright’s position that a 50%/50% post-merger ownership split was not acceptable, and had communicated Wright’s counter-proposal of a 54%/46% post-merger ownership split. Mr. Palmisano reported that Mr. Carney had acknowledged this was a serious offer and requested that Wright present a written proposal. Mr. Palmisano further reported that, in response to Mr. Carney’s request, on September 12 Wright provided to Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer a non-binding written offer proposing a stock-for-stock transaction that would result in Wright’s current equityholders owning 54% of the combined company, and Tornier’s current equityholders owning 46% of the combined company; the Wright board of directors appointing five of ten directors of the combined company, and Wright’s management largely taking operational control. Mr. Palmisano also reported that Wright had proposed that the parties agree to a 45-day exclusive negotiation period. Mr. Palmisano reported that Mr. Carney had contacted him later on September 11, and informed him that Wright’s proposed terms would be acceptable to Tornier subject to the following modifications: (1) that Mr. Mowry, Tornier’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, become chief operating officer of the combined company (with Mr. Palmisano becoming President and Chief Executive Officer), (2) that the board of directors of the combined company be set at ten individuals and split equally between Wright and Tornier nominees, with Messrs. Palmisano and Mowry being deemed initial nominees of Wright and Tornier, respectively, and (3) that Tornier have the right to nominate the chairman of the board of directors of the combined company. Mr. Carney also indicated that Tornier preferred a 30-day exclusive negotiation period. A lengthy discussion ensued, covering matters including the need to conduct thorough due diligence, the importance of a well-planned integration of the two companies, and the status of certain of Tornier’s strategic initiatives. Thereafter, the Wright board unanimously concluded that Tornier’s response justified the exchange of diligence materials and negotiation of definitive transaction documents. The Wright board of directors unanimously authorized Wright’s management to provide Tornier with a revised non-binding offer letter reflecting Tornier’s proposed modifications and a 30-day exclusive negotiation agreement.

On September 17, 2014, representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan sent Wright’s comments to the confidentiality agreement and exclusivity agreement to a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch. Also on September 17, 2014, a telephone conversation occurred between Mr. Carney and Mr. Palmisano during which Mr. Carney reiterated to Mr. Palmisano that the governance terms of Wright’s proposal, including in particular,

the composition of the board of directors of the combined company and the management of the combined company, needed to be revised to be more in line with a “merger of equals” transaction in order to be of interest to the Tornier board of directors.

Between September 11, 2014 and September 19, 2014, Wright and Tornier discussed the terms of the proposed mutual exclusivity agreement in light of the time and expense each party expected to expend in seeking to negotiate and structure a potential transaction.

On September 18, 2014, Mr. Mowry and Mr. Palmisano spoke by telephone, during which Mr. Mowry expressed concern that Wright might attempt to re-negotiate the post-transaction percentage ownership split after Tornier’s execution of the exclusivity agreement. Mr. Palmisano informed Mr. Mowry that the Wright board had reviewed and agreed to negotiate the transaction based on the currently anticipated terms and, subject to continuing review and due diligence, would work expeditiously to prepare, finalize and enter into definitive documentation.

On September 18, 2014, representatives from Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan communicated to a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch that that the Wright board of directors had accepted Tornier’s counterproposal regarding the composition of the board of directors and management of the combined company and authorized Wright’s management to continue negotiating the terms of the proposed transaction on that basis.

On September 19, 2014, the parties executed an exclusivity agreement, which contemplated a 30-day period for exclusive negotiations. From September 18, 2014 until September 22, 2014, Tornier and Wright exchanged additional drafts of the confidentiality agreement and negotiated the terms of the standstill provision in the confidentiality agreement. Upon conclusion of such negotiations, the parties agreed upon the terms of a standstill provision. On September 22, 2014, the parties entered into an amended and restated confidentiality agreement, which included a mutual one-year standstill agreement.

On September 25, 2014, Wright and its representatives and advisors were given access to Tornier’s online electronic data room and Tornier and its representatives and advisors were given access to Wright’s online electronic data room.

During the period from September 25, 2014 through October 27, 2014, representatives and advisors of Wright reviewed the materials in Tornier’s electronic data room and engaged in business and legal due diligence discussions by telephone with various representatives and advisors of Tornier, and submitted a number of requests for additional due diligence information. During this same period, representatives and advisors of Tornier reviewed the materials in Wright’s electronic data room and engaged in business and legal due diligence discussions by telephone with various representatives and advisors of Wright, and submitted a number of requests for additional due diligence information. During this period, both Tornier and Wright continually updated their respective electronic data rooms based on requests received from the other party and its advisors.

Between September 25, 2014 and October 27, 2014, representatives of Tornier’s and Wright’s management teams and their respective legal and financial advisors held discussions regarding due diligence, including each company’s ongoing litigation matters.

On September 26, 2014, representatives of outside counsel to Tornier, Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP (“Willkie”), had a conference call with representatives of Ropes & Gray, to discuss how the proposed transaction between Wright and Tornier should be structured in order to maximize the benefits to each of the companies and their respective shareholders and to discuss drafting responsibilities and timing.

On October 1, 2014, representatives of Tornier’s and Wright’s management and various respective functional groups, including legal, compliance, intellectual property, clinical, quality, regulatory, research and development, sales and marketing, financial, tax, accounting and human resources, met in Atlanta, Georgia to exchange additional information. Additional discussions took place regarding the potential strategic synergies that might result from the combination of the two companies. At this meeting, Mr. Palmisano informed Tornier’s

management that Wright’s anticipated revenue for the third quarter of 2014 likely would miss Wall Street consensus estimates by approximately 7% and its financial projections provided to Tornier and BofA Merrill Lynch by approximately 10%, likely resulting in Wright lowering its financial guidance for 2014. At this meeting, Mr. Mowry informed Wright’s management that Tornier’s anticipated revenue for third quarter of 2014 likely would exceed its financial guidance and Wall Street consensus estimates.

From October 1, 2014 until October 16, 2014, numerous telephone conversations occurred amongst various attorneys at Ropes & Gray, Baker & McKenzie, Willkie, Stibbe N.V. and other advisors engaged by Wright and Tornier to discuss structuring alternatives.

From October 1, 2014 to October 16, 2014, members of Tornier’s management, certain members of the strategic transactions committee and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch held several telephonic meetings to discuss the potential impact of Wright’s anticipated third quarter of 2014 financial results on the proposed business combination transaction between Wright and Tornier, including in particular the potential impact on Wright’s share price and relative market capitalization, and next steps. After such discussions, Tornier’s management directed BofA Merrill Lynch to contact representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan to revisit the 54%/46% post-merger ownership split between Wright and Tornier and insisted upon a split of 50%/50%.

On October 13, 2014, a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch contacted representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan and communicated that Tornier took the position that a 50%/50% post-merger ownership split would be required for a transaction.

On October 14, 2014, Mr. Carney and Mr. Palmisano discussed each company’s third quarter results. Mr. Carney suggested that Wright’s relatively weak third quarter results, and the anticipated effect on Wright’s share price, warranted an increase in the percentage of the combined company that would be owned by Tornier shareholders. Mr. Carney suggested that the post-transaction ownership percentage be 50% for former Wright shareholders and 50% for former Tornier shareholders.

At a special telephonic meeting on October 15, the Wright board discussed Tornier’s proposed adjustment to the exchange ratio, the status of diligence and the progress of contract negotiations. In addition, the Wright board considered tax implications of the proposed transaction, including the fact that a merger with a non-U.S. company would create a taxable event for Wright’s shareholders. The Wright board of directors also considered the fact that a potential transaction where Wright controlled less than 60% of the combined company would result in accelerated vesting of outstanding unvested equity awards under Wright’s equity plans, and might also trigger payments to certain of Wright’s executives in the event such executives resigned for good reason, or were asked to leave without cause following the transaction. These implications are more thoroughly described under “ Material Tax Consequences of the Merge r” and “ —Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger .” Ropes & Gray again described director fiduciary duties in evaluating the proposed transaction. The Wright board also discussed the fact that J.P. Morgan had recently provided advisory services to certain Warburg Pincus portfolio companies, that Warburg Pincus was a significant shareholder of Tornier, and that both of Wright’s financial advisors had a significant financial interest in negotiating and consummating a transaction. After discussion, the Wright board authorized Mr. Palmisano to continue negotiations with Tornier but made clear that while the Wright board continued to be supportive of a transaction, it was not in favor of a 50%/50% post-merger ownership split, and any acceptable transaction structure would have Wright’s shareholders owning at least 51% of a combined company.

On October 15, 2014, representatives of Perella Weinberg and J.P. Morgan contacted a representative of BofA Merrill Lynch and countered with a 53%/47% post-merger ownership split between Wright and Tornier.

On October 17, 2014, Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Carney spoke by telephone. Mr. Carney informed Mr. Palmisano that a 53%/47% post-merger ownership split between Wright and Tornier likely would be unacceptable to the Tornier board of directors, and that Tornier’s board would not accept any offer less favorable

to Tornier’s shareholders than a 52%/48% ownership split between Wright and Tornier. Mr. Palmisano then indicated that Wright was willing to proceed with negotiations assuming a 52%/48% post-merger ownership split between Wright and Tornier. In addition Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Carney verbally agreed to extend the period for exclusive negotiations to October 27, 2014 following the expiration of the 30-day exclusive negotiating period on October 19, 2014.

Ropes & Gray sent an initial draft of the definitive agreement to Tornier’s legal advisors on October 18, 2014. The draft agreement required each party to pay a termination fee in the event the party terminated the agreement in order to enter into another agreement and under certain other circumstances, equal to 3% of the transaction value on the date of signing. During the period between October 18, 2014 and the execution of the merger agreement on October 27, 2014, Wright’s and Tornier’s management and their respective financial advisors and outside counsel spent considerable time negotiating terms of the transaction and exchanged multiple drafts of the merger agreement and voting agreement.

On October 19, 2014, the original 30-day exclusivity period expired.

On October 20, 2014, the strategic transactions committee of the Tornier board of directors held a special telephonic meeting to receive an update on the negotiations with Wright. Several members of Tornier’s management and representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch participated for certain portions of the meeting. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch provided an update on the negotiations with Wright subsequent to the September 15, 2014 Tornier board of directors meeting and informed the strategic transactions committee regarding Wright’s most recent proposal of a 52%/48% post-transaction ownership split. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch presented a preliminary financial analysis of the proposed transaction. Tornier’s management provided an update on the status of Tornier’s due diligence investigation of Wright and described the material risks identified by Tornier during the due diligence process. Tornier’s management also described potential synergies and dissynergies as a result of the proposed transaction with Wright. Tornier’s management discussed potential cash outlays that may be incurred by the combined company during the next several years, including transaction costs, severance and retention payments, milestone obligations, pending and anticipated litigation and anticipated continuing losses, and the likely need of the combined company in light of such potential cash outlays to obtain additional financing. The strategic transactions committee discussed the potential risks and benefits of the proposed transaction with Wright and concluded that the benefits likely would outweigh the risks and authorized management to continue to work towards finalizing the definitive merger agreement and other documentation. At the conclusion of the meeting, the strategic transactions committee instructed Tornier’s management and advisors to continue discussions and negotiations with Wright and instructed Tornier’s management to continue to keep the strategic transactions committee apprised of further discussions and developments with respect to a potential transaction with Wright.

A special telephonic meeting of the Wright board of directors was held on October 20. Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Berry provided the board with an update on the status of due diligence, and Mr. Palmisano described management’s communications plan related to the announcement of the proposed merger with Tornier. Mr. Palmisano also provided an update on negotiations with Tornier since the board’s last meeting. Mr. Palmisano reported that Mr. Carney had informed him that Tornier’s board would not accept any offer less favorable to Tornier’s shareholders than a 52%/48% ownership split between Wright and Tornier. After discussion, the Wright board unanimously concluded that Wright should move forward to effect a transaction with Tornier on the basis of a 52%/48% ownership split between Wright and Tornier. The board also discussed various aspects of transaction structure, and instructed counsel to proceed with drafting merger documentation, subject to the board’s final approval of all terms, conditions, and material documents.

From October 18, 2014 to October 26, 2014, representatives from Wright and Ropes & Gray and representatives of Tornier and Willkie negotiated the terms and conditions of the merger agreement including, in particular, the structure of the transaction; the conditions to the consummation of the merger; the circumstances in which Tornier and Wright could consider unsolicited acquisition proposals made by third parties as well as the

terms upon which Tornier and Wright might be required to pay a fee upon termination of the merger agreement and the amount of any such termination fee; the commitments to achieve satisfaction of conditions to closing; the remedies available to either party in the event of termination or breach of the merger agreement; the definition of material adverse effect; and qualifications to representations and warranties. During this same time period, representatives from Wright and Ropes & Gray and representatives of Tornier and Oppenheimer Wolff & Donnelly LLP (“Oppenheimer”) exchanged drafts of and negotiated the disclosure schedules to the merger agreement. The terms of the voting and support agreement related to the merger and the entities from whom Wright was seeking such an agreement also were negotiated by the parties thereto and their advisors during this time period.

On the afternoon of October 24, 2014, Wright received an approvability letter from the FDA for Augment Bone Graft.

On October 26, 2014, the Tornier board of directors held a special meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, with Tornier’s senior management, and representatives of Willkie, Stibbe, Oppenheimer and BofA Merrill Lynch attending either in person or via telephone for certain portions of the meeting. All of the directors were present either in person or by telephone. Before the Tornier board of directors convened, the directors received various materials relating to their review of the proposed transaction, including a copy of the final draft of the merger agreement, a memorandum summarizing the material terms and conditions of the merger agreement and voting and support agreement, draft proposed resolutions approving the transaction to be considered by the Tornier board of directors, a presentation summarizing management’s due diligence investigation of Wright and a presentation and memorandum by BofA Merrill Lynch. Mr. McCormick summarized Tornier’s anticipated financial results for the third quarter of 2014 and current expectations for the fourth quarter of 2014. A representative of Stibbe, Tornier’s Dutch legal counsel, advised on the fiduciary duties of the Tornier board of directors in connection with their consideration of a potential transaction with Wright. Tornier’s management discussed the results of its due diligence investigation of Wright and described the material risks identified by Tornier during the due diligence process. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed with the Tornier board of directors the process undertaken by Tornier since the June 19, 2014 Tornier board of directors meeting, focusing in particular on developments since the September 15, 2014 Tornier board of directors meeting. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch then reviewed with the Tornier board of directors its financial analysis of the exchange ratio provided for in the merger and delivered to the Tornier board of directors an oral opinion, which was confirmed by delivery of a written opinion dated October 26, 2014, to the effect that, as of that date and based on and subject to various assumptions and limitations described in its opinion, the exchange ratio provided for in the merger was fair, from a financial point of view, to Tornier. The full text of the written opinion of BofA Merrill Lynch, which sets forth the assumptions and limitations, matters considered and procedures followed with respect to its opinion, is attached to this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Annex E. A representative of Willkie summarized the material terms and conditions of the merger agreement, including the scope of the parties’ obligations with respect to obtaining regulatory approvals, and the material terms and conditions of the voting and support agreement. The representative of Willkie also described certain investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services relationships and transactions, including BANA’s participation in the Call Spread Transactions, between BofA Merrill Lynch and certain of its affiliates, on the one hand, and Tornier and certain of its affiliates (including Warburg Pincus LLC and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies) and/or Wright and certain of its affiliates, on the other hand. Members of the Tornier board of directors asked questions and discussed the various presentations and related matters throughout the meeting and Tornier’s management, as well as representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch, Willkie and Stibbe, responded to comments and questions from the directors. A discussion ensued regarding the proposed transaction with Wright. In the course of its deliberations, the Tornier board of directors considered a number of factors, including those described more fully below under “ —Recommendation of the Tornier Board of Directors; Tornier’s Reasons for the Merger .” The Tornier board of directors also considered certain of the risks and other countervailing factors related to entering into the merger agreement that previously had been identified and discussed by Tornier’s senior management and the Tornier board of directors, which are also described more fully below under “ —Recommendation of the Tornier Board of Directors; Tornier’s Reasons for the Merger .” Following these

presentations and discussions, an executive session of the Tornier board of directors occurred during which only members of the Tornier board of directors were present to discuss further the proposed transaction with Wright. After the executive session, the other meeting participants rejoined the meeting and a representative of Oppenheimer reviewed resolutions approving the merger and the merger agreement and the related matters with the Tornier board of directors. The Tornier board of directors then unanimously: (1) determined that the merger is fair to and in the best interests of Tornier and its stakeholders, including the Tornier shareholders; (2) approved the merger agreement, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement; and (3) recommended that the Tornier shareholders vote to approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger and the issuance of Tornier ordinary shares in the merger.

On October 26, 2014, the Wright board of directors held a special telephonic meeting. Members of management and representatives from J.P. Morgan, Perella Weinberg and Ropes & Gray also participated in the meeting. In advance of the meeting, the directors were provided with a near-final draft of the merger agreement. At the meeting, Mr. Palmisano referred the Wright board to the detailed materials circulated on October 24, and then updated on October 25 to include draft fairness opinions from Wright’s financial advisors. Mr. Palmisano reported that the parties now appeared to be in agreement on all significant deal points including a 52%/48% post-merger ownership split of the combined company in favor of the Wright shareholders, deal structure, so-called “no-shop” provisions and other deal terms, board structure and closing conditions. Mr. Lightman and a representative from Ropes & Gray next reviewed the fiduciary duties of the Wright board of directors in the context of the transaction, and referred to the presentation given to the Wright board of directors on May 15, 2014 and outlined once again potential conflicts for the Wright board of directors to consider. The Wright board of directors discussed their fiduciary duties in the context of the proposed agreement and considered that: (1) Warburg Pincus, the largest shareholder of Tornier at one time held a majority position in Wright; (2) that Mr. Palmisano had previously been President and Chief Executive Officer of ev3 Inc. and a director of Bausch & Lomb Inc., both former portfolio companies of Warburg Pincus; (3) that a member of the Wright board of directors, John L. Miclot, had formerly been an executive in residence at Warburg Pincus; (4) that Mr. Palmisano would be chief executive officer of the combined company; (5) that several Wright directors would be directors at the combined company and (6) compensation implications for Mr. Palmisano and other members of Wright’s management team and board. Mr. Berry then outlined for the Wright board of directors the effect of the transaction on Wright’s outstanding 2017 convertible notes. A discussion ensued. In addition, representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg provided the Wright board information regarding the methodology, analyses and assumptions which each firm employed arriving at the preliminary view that the proposed transaction was fair to the Wright shareholders from a financial point of view.

Shortly after the meeting, Mr. Mowry called Mr. Palmisano to advise him of the action by the Tornier board of directors.

On October 26 and 27, 2014, Wright and its representatives and advisors and Tornier and its representatives and advisors finalized the merger agreement and Wright and its representatives and advisors and TMG Holdings and its representatives and advisors finalized the voting and support agreement.

On October 27, 2014 at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Wright board of directors, the Wright board of directors reviewed and discussed changes that had been made to the draft merger agreement since the draft that had been distributed to the Wright board of directors in advance of the October 27 meeting. Representatives from J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg each orally delivered their opinions to the Wright board of directors that, in their opinions, the proposed transaction would be fair to Wright shareholders. The text of each opinion is attached as Annexes C and D to this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Following additional discussion and deliberation, the Wright board of directors unanimously approved the transaction with Tornier.

On October 27, 2014 before the close of trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, Wright and Tornier executed the merger agreement. In addition, on that date, the voting and support agreement was executed and delivered by the parties thereto.

On October 27, 2014 after the close of trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, Wright and Tornier issued a joint press release announcing the execution of the merger agreement.

Recommendation of the Wright Board of Directors; Wright’s Reasons for the Merger

At its meeting on October 27, 2014, the Wright board of directors unanimously approved the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger. The Wright board of directors unanimously recommends that Wright shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and “FOR” the other proposals to be considered by Wright shareholders at the special meeting of the Wright shareholders .

The Wright board of directors considered many factors in making its decision to recommend the adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby. In arriving at its decision, the Wright board of directors consulted with Wright’s senior management, legal advisors, financial advisors and other advisors, reviewed a significant amount of information, considered a number of factors and concluded in its business judgment that the proposed merger is likely to result in significant strategic and financial benefits to Wright and its shareholders, including a number of positive factors (not in any relative order of importance):

Strategic and Financial Benefits of the Merger

•

the expectation that the merger would create a larger, premier extremities-biologics company with leading technologies and specialized sales forces in three of the fastest growing areas of orthopaedics—upper extremities, lower extremities and biologics—that will be positioned to seek to achieve above-market revenue growth and accelerate its path to profitability;

•

the highly complementary nature of Wright’s and Tornier’s businesses, products and geographic markets, and the additional revenue growth opportunities presented by the combined company’s expanded and comprehensive extremities and biologics product offering and the opportunity created by the transaction to enhance the capabilities of both companies to operate more effectively and efficiently by employing best practices of each company;

•

the expectation that the combined company will be better positioned to pursue an aggressive growth strategy in comparison to Wright on a stand-alone basis as a result of the combined company’s anticipated diversity and scale across a range of product categories and geographies, larger market capitalization, enhanced access to capital over the long-term and likelihood of increased access to business development opportunities as a result of its larger market presence;

•

the current and prospective competitive climate in the orthopaedic industry, including recent significant consolidation within the industry and significant regulatory, financial, economic and other challenges facing industry participants, and the belief that the combined company, in light of its larger scale, more comprehensive product offering and market presence, will be better positioned to meet these challenges, including possible additional industry consolidation;

•

the expectation that the transaction will support and advance Wright’s vision to be “The Specialty Orthopaedic Company People Love,” which is well aligned with Tornier’s “Specialists Serving Specialists” philosophy, and Wright’s tradition of product innovation and commitment to the advancement of orthopaedic technology stemming from its close collaboration with orthopaedic surgeons and thought leaders throughout the world;

•

the opportunity for the combined company to potentially achieve significant operational and cost synergies, which cost synergies are anticipated to be in the range of $40 million to $45 million by the third year of operations after closing, coming from, among other things, anticipated reductions in public company expenses, overlapping support function and systems costs, as well as process and vendor consolidation opportunities across the business;

•

the fact that Wright shareholders will own approximately 52% of the combined company immediately following completion of the merger;

•

the fact that the exchange ratio is fixed, which, consistent with the principles underlying the merger of equals structure, provides certainty to the Wright shareholders as to their approximate aggregate pro forma percentage ownership of the combined company and will not fluctuate based upon changes in the market price of Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares between the date of the merger agreement and the closing date;

•

information and discussions with Wright’s management regarding Tornier’s business and results of operations and its financial and market position, and Wright’s management expectations concerning the combined company’s future prospects;

•

the potential opportunity for Wright shareholders to participate in a more diversified business profile, the potential to obtain accelerated profitability through anticipated revenue growth and the realization of synergies and the positioning of the combined company as a potential future consolidator with a strong platform from which to pursue acquisitions; and

•

the expectation that the merger will result in greater value to the Wright shareholders than the value that could be expected to be generated from the various other strategic alternatives available to Wright.

Other Considerations

In the course of reaching its decision to recommend the adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, the Wright board of directors considered the following additional factors as generally supporting its decision:

•

Wright’s business, operations, operating results, financial condition, strategy and future prospects, including Wright’s receipt of the approvable letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for its premarket approval application for its Augment ^® Bone Graft, and the highly competitive, consolidating and rapidly evolving industry in which Wright operates;

•

its knowledge of Tornier’s business, operations, operating results, financial condition, strategy and future prospects and historical and current trading prices of Tornier ordinary shares taking into account the results of Wright’s due diligence review of Tornier;

•

the recommendation of Wright’s management in support of the transaction;

•

the separate opinions of J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg to the Wright board of directors each delivered orally on October 27, 2014, which was confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, attached as Annexes C and D, respectively, to the effect that, as of October 27, 2014, and based upon and subject to the various assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and qualifications and limitations set forth therein, the exchange ratio provided for in the merger is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Wright common stock, together with the financial analyses presented by J.P. Morgan and Perella Weinberg to the Wright board of directors in connection with delivery of their respective opinions, as more fully described in the section entitled “ The Merger—Opinions of Wright’s Financial Advisors” beginning on page 88;

•

the Wright board of directors’ belief that the terms of the merger agreement were the product of arms-length negotiations between Wright and its advisors, on the one hand, and Tornier and its advisors, on the other hand;

•

the governance arrangements contained in the merger agreement, which provide that after completion of the merger: (i) the board of directors of the combined company will consist of ten individuals, including five of whom are members of the Wright board of directors immediately prior to the completion of the merger and five of whom are members of the Tornier board of directors immediately prior to the completion of the merger; and (ii) the President and Chief Executive Officer of the

combined company will be Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s current President and Chief Executive Officer;

•

the fact that, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the merger agreement, Wright is permitted to furnish information to and conduct negotiations with third parties that make unsolicited acquisition proposals and, subject to payment of $46.0 million plus up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement, terminate the merger agreement in order to accept a superior proposal, which the Wright board of directors believed was important in ensuring that the merger would be substantively fair to the Wright shareholders and providing the Wright board of directors with adequate flexibility to respond to solicitations from third parties;

•

the Wright board of directors’ belief that the $46.0 million termination fee payable by Wright upon Wright’s termination of the merger agreement to accept a superior proposal, plus up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement, (i) are reasonable in light of the overall terms of the merger agreement and the benefits of the merger, (ii) are within the range of termination fees in other transactions of this size and nature and (iii) would not preclude another party from making a proposal;

•

the expectation that the merger will be consummated, based on, among other things, the limited number of conditions to the merger and the commitment made by parties to cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to obtain regulatory clearances, including under the HSR Act, including to divest assets or commit to limitations on the businesses of Tornier and Wright to the extent provided in the merger agreement;

•

the fact that Wright will control the terms of, and assets included in, any divestiture involving assets that generated U.S. revenue less than $15 million during the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, under the HSR Act, subject to using commercially reasonable efforts to contest any divestiture proposed by a governmental body;

•

the fact that the respective Tornier shareholders and Wright shareholders would vote on approval of the transaction;

•

the fact that TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC and a principal shareholder of Tornier, which holds approximately 21.9% of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares as of the close of business on October 24, 2014, entered into a voting and support agreement with Wright to vote in favor of the merger and the merger agreement and related matters, which reduces the risk that the merger will not be consummated;

•

the fact that the U.S. headquarters for the combined company will be based within Wright’s existing headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee;

•

the fact that the name of the combined company will be “Wright Medical Group N.V.”;

•

the fact that the combined company will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under Wright’s current trading symbol “WMGI”;

•

the opportunity for Wright’s employees to benefit from being part of a larger, dynamic organization that will offer opportunities for career development and growth;

•

the fact that the combined company will remain incorporated in the Netherlands and the anticipated global cash management flexibility and long-term tax benefits which are expected to accrue to Wright shareholders as shareholders of the combined company after the merger; and

•

the scope and results of Wright’s due diligence investigation, which included reviews of operational, organizational, financial, commercial, regulatory, legal and other matters related to Tornier’s business and potential financial, operational and other impacts of the merger on Wright.

Uncertainties, Risks and Potentially Negative Factors

In the course of its deliberations, the Wright board of directors also considered a variety of uncertainties, risks and other potentially negative factors relevant to the transaction, including the following:

•

the fact that Wright shareholders will own a smaller percentage in the combined company than such shareholders own in Wright currently;

•

the difficulty and costs inherent in the combination of two businesses of the size, geographic diversity and complexity of Tornier and Wright and the risk that the cost savings, synergies and other benefits expected to be obtained as a result of the merger might not be fully or timely realized;

•

the fact that Wright’s management anticipates some revenue dis-synergies as a result of the merger;

•

the fact that the combined company may face liquidity challenges during the next few years in light of significant contingent liabilities and financial obligations and commitments, including, among others, acquisition-related contingent consideration payments and outstanding indebtedness, Tornier’s outstanding indebtedness that will become due and payable upon completion of the merger, transaction-related expenses, and the combined company’s anticipated operating losses for the next few years;

•

the fact that the combined company likely will need additional financing to satisfy its anticipated liquidity challenges, which may not be available on favorable terms at the time it is needed and which could reduce the combined company’s operational and strategic flexibility;

•

the fact that the exchange ratio is fixed and will not adjust to compensate for changes in the price of Tornier ordinary shares or Wright shares prior to the consummation of the merger, although the merger agreement does permit the Wright board of directors to change its recommendation of the merger upon the occurrence of specified intervening events, as more fully described in the merger agreement (see “ The Merger Agreement—Change of Recommendation ” beginning on page 144);

•

the fact that certain provisions of the merger agreement, although reciprocal, may have the effect of discouraging alternative business combination transactions involving Wright, including restrictions on Wright’s ability to solicit proposals for alternative transactions and the requirement that Wright pay a termination fee of $46.0 million plus up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement to Tornier in certain circumstances following the termination of the merger agreement;

•

the restrictions on the conduct of Wright’s business during the pendency of the merger, which may delay or prevent Wright from undertaking potential business opportunities that may arise or may negatively affect Wright’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel;

•

the adverse impact that business uncertainty prior to the effective time of the merger could have on Tornier’s and Wright’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the effective time;

•

the fact that there can be no assurance that the conditions in the merger agreement will be satisfied and, as a result, the merger may not be consummated and the potential consequences of non-consummation, including the potential negative impacts on Wright, its business, the trading price of Wright shares and Wright’s ability to attract and retain key management personnel and employees;

•

the risk that regulatory agencies may not approve the merger or may impose terms and conditions on their approvals that adversely affect the business and financial results of the combined company;

•

the time, effort and substantial costs involved in connection with entering into the merger agreement and completing the merger and the related disruptions to the operation of Wright’s business, including the risk of diverting management’s attention from other strategic priorities to implement merger integration efforts, and the risk that the operations of Wright would be disrupted by employee concerns or departures or by changes to or termination of Wright’s relationships with its customers, suppliers, independent sales representatives and distributors following the public announcement of the merger;

•

the fact that the merger is expected to be taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the Wright shareholders;

•

the risks associated with Wright effectively changing its corporate domicile to the Netherlands, including operating under Dutch laws and possible negative publicity associated with moving its domicile to a jurisdiction outside the United States, along with the risk that U.S. tax law or regulations are changed such that the transaction is characterized as an inversion;

•

the fact that the merger will result in the automatic, full acceleration of vesting of all outstanding equity-based awards held by Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s President and Chief Executive Officer, all other Wright executive officers and all Tornier executive officers, which diminishes the retentive value of those awards and will likely result in the combined company making additional equity-based awards to the executive officers in order to incentivize them to remain with the combined company and ensure continued alignment of the executive officers’ interests with those of the combined company and its shareholders;

•

the fact that, should an excise tax on certain stock-based compensation described in Section 4985 of the Code become payable by an executive officer or director, which Wright expects would occur only upon a change in tax law or regulations, the combined company must, pursuant to the merger agreement, gross up each such executive officer or director for such tax, as well as the additional taxes due upon any such gross up payment, so that the executive officer or director is in the same tax position in which he or she would have been had he or she not incurred such tax (see “ The Merger Agreement—Indemnification of Officers and Directors ” for additional details);

•

the fact that Wright has incurred and will continue to incur significant transaction costs and expenses in connection with the merger, regardless of whether the merger is consummated;

•

the fact that Wright is paying a 28% premium to Tornier shareholders implied by the exchange ratio, based on a calculation of the share prices of Tornier and Wright on October 24, 2014, the last trading day prior to the parties entering into the merger agreement;

•

the risk that the Wright shareholders or Tornier shareholders may fail to approve the merger; and

•

other business, industry and other risks of the combined company, some of which are described under “ Risk Factors ” beginning on page 28.

In addition to considering the factors described above, the Wright board of directors considered the relationships between Warburg Pincus LLC and Wright, including the fact that (1) TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC, is Tornier’s largest shareholder and will have the right to nominate members to the combined company’s board of directors, (2) Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s President and Chief Executive Officer, has served as an executive officer at other companies controlled by Warburg Pincus LLC, including ev3 Inc., (3) Pascal E.R. Girin, Wright’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, has served as an executive in residence at Warburg Pincus LLC, as an executive officer at other companies controlled by Warburg Pincus LLC, including Keystone Dental Inc., and as a non-executive director for Tornier, and (4) John Miclot, a member of the Wright board of directors, has served as an executive in residence at Warburg Pincus LLC.

Further, the Wright board of directors considered that some members of the Wright board of directors and certain Wright executive officers have interests in the proposed merger as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interest of the Wright shareholders generally, as described under “ The Merger—Interests of Wright’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger ” beginning on page 119.

After considering the foregoing potentially negative and potentially positive factors, the Wright board of directors unanimously concluded, in its business judgment, that the potentially positive factors relating to the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (including the merger) outweighed the potentially negative factors.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the Wright board of directors is not exhaustive but is intended to reflect the material factors considered by the Wright board of directors in its

consideration of the merger. In view of the complexity, and the large number, of the factors considered, the Wright board of directors, both individually and collectively, did not find it practicable to and did not attempt to quantify or assign any relative or specific weight to the various factors. Rather, the Wright board of directors based its recommendation on the totality of the information presented to and considered by it. In addition, individual members of the Wright board of directors may have given different weight to different factors.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the Wright board of directors is forward-looking in nature. This information should be read in light of the factors described under “ Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ” beginning on page 41.

At its meeting on October 26, 2014, the Tornier board of directors unanimously approved the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger. The Tornier board of directors unanimously recommends that Tornier shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal to approve the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and “FOR” the other proposals to be considered by Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

In arriving at its decision, the Tornier board of directors consulted with Tornier’s senior management, legal advisors, financial advisors and other advisors, reviewed a significant amount of information, considered a number of factors and concluded in its business judgment that the proposed merger is likely to result in significant strategic and financial benefits to Tornier and its shareholders, including a number of positive factors (not in any relative order of importance):

•

the expectation that the merger will result in greater value to the Tornier shareholders than the value that could be expected to be generated from the various other strategic alternatives available to Tornier, including alternative business combinations and the alternative of remaining independent and pursuing Tornier’s current business plan.

Other Considerations

In the course of reaching its decision to recommend the approval of the merger agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, the Tornier board of directors considered the following additional factors as generally supporting its decision:

•

Tornier’s business, operations, operating results, financial condition, strategy and future prospects as reflected in Tornier’s business plan and potential long-term value taking into account its future prospects, the highly competitive, consolidating and rapidly evolving industry in which Tornier operates and risks relating to Tornier’s ability to implement its business plan if it were to remain an independent company, which material risks include, among others, competitive pressures which are increased by industry consolidation, ability to develop and introduce new successful products, reliance upon distributors, independent sales agencies and sales representatives, regulatory and compliance and risks associated with international operations;

the governance arrangements contained in the merger agreement, which provide that after completion of the merger: (i) the board of directors of the combined company will consist of ten individuals, including five of whom are members of the Tornier board of directors immediately prior to the completion of the merger and five of whom are members of the Wright board of directors immediately prior to the completion of the merger; (ii) the Chairman of the Board of the combined company will be a designee of Tornier; (iii) the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the combined company will be David H. Mowry, Tornier’s current President and Chief Executive Officer;

•

the fact that, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the merger agreement, Tornier is permitted to furnish information to and conduct negotiations with third parties that make unsolicited acquisition proposals and, subject to payment of $46.0 million plus up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement, terminate the merger agreement in order to accept a superior proposal, which the Tornier board of directors believed was important in ensuring that the merger would be substantively fair to the Tornier shareholders and providing the Tornier board of directors with adequate flexibility to respond to solicitations from third parties;

•

the Tornier board of directors’ belief that the $46.0 million termination fee payable by Tornier upon Tornier’s termination of the merger agreement to accept a superior proposal plus up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement (1) are reasonable in light of the overall terms of the merger agreement and the benefits of the merger, (2) are within the range of termination fees in other transactions of this size and nature and (3) would not preclude another party from making a proposal;

•

the fact that the respective Tornier shareholders and Wright shareholders would vote on approval of the transaction;

•

to vote in favor of the merger and the merger agreement and related matters, which reduces the risk that the merger will not be consummated;

•

the fact that the U.S. headquarters for the upper extremity business will be based within Tornier’s existing facility in Bloomington, Minnesota, and its U.S. engineering center will be based in Tornier’s existing facility in Warsaw, Ohio;

•

the opportunity for Tornier’s employees to benefit from being part of a larger, dynamic organization that will offer enhanced opportunities for career development and growth;

•

the fact that the combined company will remain incorporated in the Netherlands and the anticipated global cash management flexibility and long-term tax benefits which are expected to accrue to Tornier shareholders as shareholders of the combined company after the merger;

•

the impact of the merger on all stakeholders of Tornier, including holders of Tornier ordinary shares, employees, customers, vendors and creditors; and

•

the scope and results of Tornier’s due diligence investigation, which included reviews of operational, organizational, financial, commercial, regulatory, legal and other matters related to Wright’s business and potential financial, operational and other impacts of the merger on Tornier.

Uncertainties, Risks and Potentially Negative Factors

In the course of its deliberations, the Tornier board of directors also considered a variety of uncertainties, risks and other potentially negative factors relevant to the transaction, including the following:

•

the dilution to Tornier shareholders resulting from the merger;

•

the fact that Tornier’s management anticipates some revenue dis-synergies as a result of the merger;

•

Wright’s financial performance during the second and third quarters of 2014, which were below analyst expectations and resulted in Wright lowering its revenue guidance for full year 2014 and the risk that the factors that adversely affected Wright’s net sales would continue during the remainder of 2014 and into 2015;

•

the fact that the combined company may face liquidity challenges during the next few years in light of Wright’s significant contingent liabilities and financial obligations and commitments, including, among others, acquisition-related contingent consideration payments and outstanding indebtedness, Tornier’s outstanding indebtedness that will become due and payable upon completion of the merger, transaction-related expenses, and the combined company’s anticipated operating losses for the next few years;

•

the fact that the exchange ratio is fixed and will not adjust to compensate for changes in the price of Tornier ordinary shares or Wright shares prior to the consummation of the merger and that the terms of the merger agreement do not include termination rights triggered by a decrease in the value of Wright relative to the value of Tornier, although the merger agreement does permit the Tornier board of directors to change its recommendation of the merger upon the occurrence of specified intervening events, as more fully described in the merger agreement (see “ The Merger Agreement—Change of Recommendation ” beginning on page 144);

•

the fact that certain provisions of the merger agreement, although reciprocal, may have the effect of discouraging alternative business combination transactions involving Tornier, including restrictions on

Tornier’s ability to solicit proposals for alternative transactions and the requirement that Tornier pay a termination fee of $46.0 million plus up to $5.0 million in expense reimbursement to Wright in certain circumstances following the termination of the merger agreement;

•

the restrictions on the conduct of Tornier’s business during the pendency of the merger, which may delay or prevent Tornier from undertaking potential business opportunities that may arise or may negatively affect Tornier’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel;

•

the fact that there can be no assurance that the conditions in the merger agreement will be satisfied and, as a result, the merger may not be consummated and the potential consequences of non-consummation, including the potential negative impacts on Tornier, its business, the trading price of Tornier ordinary shares and Tornier’s ability to attract and retain key management personnel and employees;

•

the risk that regulatory agencies may not approve the merger or may impose terms and conditions on their approvals that adversely affect the business and financial results of the combined company;

•

the potential challenges of operating the business of the combined company pursuant to the terms of Wright’s corporate integrity agreement;

•

the time, effort and substantial costs involved in connection with entering into the merger agreement and completing the merger and the related disruptions to the operation of Tornier’s business, including the risk of diverting management’s attention from other strategic priorities to implement merger integration efforts, and the risk that the operations of Tornier would be disrupted by employee concerns or departures or by changes to or termination of Tornier’s relationships with its customers, suppliers, independent sales representatives and distributors following the public announcement of the merger;

•

the fact that Tornier has incurred and will continue to incur significant transaction costs and expenses in connection with the merger, regardless of whether the merger is consummated;

•

the risk that the Tornier shareholders or Wright shareholders may fail to approve the merger;

•

the risk that that the forecasted results in the unaudited prospective financial information of Tornier and Wright will not be obtained; and

•

other business, industry and other risks of the combined company, some of which are described under “ Risk Factors ” beginning on page 28.

In addition to considering the factors described above, the Tornier board of directors considered that some members of the Tornier board of directors and certain Tornier executive officers have interests in the proposed merger as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interest of Tornier shareholders generally, as described under “ The Merger—Interests of Tornier’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger ” beginning on page 125.

After considering the foregoing potentially negative and potentially positive factors, the Tornier board of directors unanimously concluded, in its business judgment, that the potentially positive factors relating to the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (including the merger) outweighed the potentially negative factors.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the Tornier board of directors is not exhaustive but is intended to reflect the material factors considered by the Tornier board of directors in its consideration of the merger. In view of the complexity, and the large number, of the factors considered, the Tornier board of directors, both individually and collectively, did not find it practicable to and did not attempt to quantify or assign any relative or specific weight to the various factors. Rather, the Tornier board of directors based its recommendation on the totality of the information presented to and considered by it. In addition, individual members of the Tornier board of directors may have given different weight to different factors.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the Tornier board of directors is forward-looking in nature. This information should be read in light of the factors described under “ Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ” beginning on page 41.

Opinions of Wright’s Financial Advisors

Opinion of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC

Pursuant to an engagement letter dated October 24, 2014, Wright retained J.P. Morgan as its financial advisor in connection with the proposed merger. At the meeting of the Wright board of directors on October 27, 2014, at which the proposed merger was approved, J.P. Morgan rendered to the Wright board of directors an oral opinion, confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, dated October 27, 2014, to the effect that, as of such date and based upon and subject to the factors, assumptions, qualifications and any limitations set forth in its opinion, the exchange ratio of 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares to be received for each share of Wright common stock as provided for in the merger agreement was fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Wright common stock.

The full text of the written opinion of J.P. Morgan dated as of October 27, 2014, which sets forth, among other things, the assumptions made, matters considered, and qualifications and any limitations on the opinion and the review undertaken by J.P. Morgan in connection with rendering its opinion, is attached as Annex C to this joint proxy statement/prospectus and is incorporated herein by reference. The summary of the opinion of J.P. Morgan set forth in this joint proxy statement/prospectus is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such opinion. Wright shareholders are urged to read the opinion in its entirety. J.P. Morgan’s written opinion was addressed to the Wright board of directors (in its capacity as such) in connection with and for the purposes of its evaluation of the proposed merger, was directed only to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to holders of Wright common stock of the exchange ratio in the proposed merger and did not address any other aspect of the proposed merger. J.P. Morgan expressed no opinion as to the fairness of the exchange ratio to the holders of any other class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of Wright or as to the underlying decision by Wright to engage in the proposed merger. The issuance of J.P. Morgan’s opinion was approved by a fairness committee of J.P. Morgan. The opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any Wright shareholder as to how such shareholder should vote with respect to the proposed merger or any other matter.

In arriving at its opinion, J.P. Morgan, among other things:

•

reviewed a draft dated October 27, 2014 of the merger agreement;

•

reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information concerning Wright and Tornier and the industries in which they operate;

•

compared the proposed financial terms of the proposed merger with the publicly available financial terms of certain transactions involving companies J.P. Morgan deemed relevant and the consideration paid for such companies;

•

compared the financial and operating performance of Wright and Tornier with publicly available information concerning certain other companies J.P. Morgan deemed relevant and reviewed the current and historical market prices of Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares and certain publicly traded securities of such other companies;

•

reviewed certain internal financial analyses and forecasts prepared by the managements of Wright and Tornier, relating to their respective businesses, as well as the estimated amount and timing of the cost savings and related expenses and synergies expected to result from the proposed merger (which we refer to in this section regarding the opinion of J.P. Morgan as the “Synergies”); and

•

performed such other financial studies and analyses and considered such other information as J.P. Morgan deemed appropriate for the purposes of its opinion.

In addition, J.P. Morgan held discussions with certain members of the managements of Wright and Tornier with respect to certain aspects of the proposed merger, and the past and current business operations of Wright and Tornier, the financial condition and future prospects and operations of Wright and Tornier, the effects of the proposed merger on the financial condition and future prospects of Wright and Tornier, and certain other matters J.P. Morgan believed necessary or appropriate to its inquiry.

In giving its opinion, J.P. Morgan relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all information that was publicly available or was furnished to or discussed with J.P. Morgan by Wright and Tornier or otherwise reviewed by or for J.P. Morgan, and J.P. Morgan did not independently verify, nor did J.P. Morgan assume responsibility or liability for independently verifying, any such information or its accuracy or completeness. J.P. Morgan did not conduct and was not provided with any valuation or appraisal of any assets or liabilities, nor did J.P. Morgan evaluate the solvency of Wright or Tornier under any state or federal laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. In relying on financial analyses and forecasts provided to it or derived therefrom, including the Synergies, J.P. Morgan assumed that they were reasonably prepared based on assumptions reflecting the best then available estimates and judgments by the managements as to the expected future results of operations and financial condition of Wright and Tornier to which such analyses or forecasts relate. J.P. Morgan expressed no view as to such analyses or forecasts (including the Synergies) or the assumptions on which they were based. J.P. Morgan also assumed that the proposed merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement will be consummated as described in the merger agreement, and that the definitive merger agreement would not differ in any material respect from the draft thereof furnished to J.P. Morgan. J.P. Morgan further assumed that the representations and warranties made by Wright and Tornier in the merger agreement and the related agreements were and would be true and correct in all respects material to J.P. Morgan’s analysis. J.P. Morgan is not a legal, regulatory or tax expert and relied on the assessments made by advisors to Wright with respect to such issues. J.P. Morgan further assumed that all material governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for or in connection with the consummation of the proposed merger will be obtained without any adverse effect on Wright or Tornier or on the contemplated benefits of the proposed merger.

The projections furnished to J.P. Morgan for Wright and Tornier were prepared by or at the direction of the respective managements of Wright and Tornier. Wright and Tornier do not publicly disclose internal management projections of the type provided to J.P. Morgan in connection with J.P. Morgan’s analysis of the proposed merger, and such projections were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure. These projections were based on numerous variables and assumptions that are inherently uncertain and may be beyond the control of the respective managements of Wright and Tornier and/or the preparer of such forecasts, including, without limitation, factors related to general economic and competitive conditions and prevailing interest rates. Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from those set forth in such projections.

J.P. Morgan’s opinion was necessarily based on economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to J.P. Morgan as of, the date of its opinion. J.P. Morgan’s opinion noted that subsequent developments may affect J.P. Morgan’s opinion, and J.P. Morgan does not have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm its opinion. J.P. Morgan’s opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of the Wright common stock of the exchange ratio of 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares to be received for each Wright share as provided for in the proposed merger, and J.P. Morgan expressed no opinion as to the fairness of the proposed merger to, or any consideration to be paid to, the holders of any other class of

securities, creditors or other constituencies of Wright or as to the underlying decision by Wright to engage in the proposed merger. Furthermore, J.P. Morgan expressed no opinion with respect to the amount or nature of any compensation to any officers, directors, or employees of any party to the proposed merger, or any class of such persons relative to the exchange ratio applicable to the holders of Wright shares in the proposed merger or with respect to the fairness of any such compensation. J.P. Morgan expressed no opinion as to the price at which the Wright shares or the Tornier ordinary shares would trade at any future time.

The terms of the merger agreement, including the exchange ratio, were determined through arm’s length negotiations between Wright and Tornier, and the decision to enter into the merger agreement was solely that of the Wright board of directors and Tornier board of directors. J.P. Morgan’s opinion and financial analyses were only one of the many factors considered by the Wright board of directors in its evaluation of the proposed merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of the Wright board of directors or management with respect to the proposed merger or the exchange ratio.

In accordance with customary investment banking practice, J.P. Morgan employed generally accepted valuation methods in connection with its opinion. The following is a summary of the material financial analyses utilized by J.P. Morgan in connection with rendering its opinion. The following summary, however, does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses performed by J.P. Morgan. Some of the summaries of the financial analyses include information presented in tabular format. The tables are not intended to stand alone, and in order to more fully understand the financial analyses used by J.P. Morgan, the tables must be read together with the full text of each summary. Considering the data set forth herein without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of J.P. Morgan’s financial analyses.

For each of the analyses performed by J.P. Morgan, J.P. Morgan utilized the treasury stock method to calculate fully diluted shares outstanding, treating Wright’s convertible debt as if it had been converted to Wright shares pursuant to the indenture governing the convertible debt.

Historical Trading Analysis

J.P. Morgan reviewed the 52-week trading range of Wright share prices and Tornier ordinary share prices for the period ending October 24, 2014. The reference ranges were as follows:


	Wright			Tornier
52-week high	$	33.75	52-week high	$	25.00
52-week low	$	26.50	52-week low	$	15.25

J.P. Morgan then calculated the implied exchange ratio on a daily basis by dividing the per share price of Wright shares by the per share price of Tornier ordinary shares to derive the highest and lowest historical exchange ratios over the 52-week trading range as shown below, as compared to the exchange ratio in the proposed merger of 1.0309.


	Implied exchange ratio
52-week highest historical exchange ratio		1.7622x
52-week lowest historical exchange ratio		1.2445x

J.P. Morgan noted that a historical trading analysis was presented merely for reference purposes only, and was not relied upon for valuation purposes.

Analyst Price Targets

J.P. Morgan reviewed the price targets for Wright and Tornier published by public equity research analysts covering Wright and Tornier as provided by FactSet Research Systems. The price targets presented were in the following ranges:


	Wright			Tornier
High price target	$	40.00	High price target	$	30.00
Low price target	$	32.00	Low price target	$	21.00

J.P. Morgan then calculated (1) the ratio of the highest price target for Wright to the lowest price target for Tornier, and (2) the ratio of the lowest price target for Wright to the highest price target for Tornier to derive an implied exchange ratio range as shown below, as compared to the exchange ratio in the proposed merger of 1.0309.


	Implied exchange ratio
Highest Wright price target to lowest Tornier price target		1.9048x
Lowest Wright price target to highest Tornier price target		1.0667x

J.P. Morgan noted that the analyst price targets were presented merely for reference purposes only, and were not relied upon for valuation purposes.

Public Trading Multiples

Using publicly available information, J.P. Morgan compared selected financial data of Wright and Tornier with similar data of selected publicly traded companies engaged in businesses which J.P. Morgan judged to be sufficiently analogous to those of Wright and Tornier. The companies selected by J.P. Morgan were as follows:

•

Insulet Corporation

•

Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation

•

NuVasive, Inc.

•

Globus Medical, Inc.

•

Heartware International Inc.

•

Cyberonics, Inc.

•

Thoratec Corp.

•

MiMedx Group, Inc.

•

Endologix, Inc.

•

LDR Holding Corporation

These companies were selected, among other reasons, because they are publicly traded companies with operations and businesses that, for purposes of J.P. Morgan’s analyses, were, in J.P. Morgan’s judgment, considered sufficiently similar to those of Wright and Tornier based on business sector participation, financial metrics and form of operations. None of the selected companies reviewed is identical to Wright or Tornier and certain of these companies may have characteristics that are materially different from those of Wright or Tornier. The analyses necessarily involve complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operational characteristics of the companies involved and other factors that could affect the companies differently than would affect Wright or Tornier.

In all instances, multiples were based on closing stock prices on October 24, 2014. For each of the following analyses performed by J.P. Morgan, estimated financial data for the selected companies were based on

information J.P. Morgan obtained from FactSet Research Systems and, in the case of Wright and Tornier, the managements of Wright and Tornier. The multiples and ratios for each of the selected companies were based on such information. Among other calculations, with respect to Wright, Tornier and the selected companies, J.P. Morgan calculated and compared the multiple of firm value (calculated as equity value plus total debt and other adjustments, including minority interest, net of cash and cash equivalents, unconsolidated investments and value of tax attributes) to estimated revenue for the 2015 and 2016 fiscal years. Results of the analysis were presented for Wright, Tornier and the selected companies, as indicated in the following table:


	FV / revenue
	2015E		2016E
Wright		4.87x		4.11x
Tornier		3.21x		2.85x
Mean		4.18x		3.58x
Median		4.32x		3.87x

Based on the above analysis, J.P. Morgan then derived a multiple reference range of 3.4x—5.4x and 3.1x—4.4x for firm value to estimated revenue ratio for 2015 and 2016, respectively. After applying such ranges to the appropriate Wright and Tornier metrics, the analysis indicated the following implied per share equity values of Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares, respectively:


	Implied value per share
Wright
FV / 2015E Revenue	$	21.75 – $35.50
FV / 2016E Revenue	$	23.50 – $34.25
Tornier
FV / 2015E Revenue	$	25.00 – $40.50
FV / 2016E Revenue	$	25.75 – $37.00

J.P. Morgan then calculated (1) the ratio of the price implied by the highest multiple for firm value to estimated revenue for 2015 and 2016 for Wright to the price implied by the lowest multiple for firm value to estimated revenue for 2015 and 2016 for Tornier, and (2) the ratio of the price implied by the lowest multiple for firm value to estimated revenue for 2015 and 2016 for Wright and the highest multiple for firm value to estimated revenue for 2015 and 2016 for Tornier to derive an implied exchange ratio range as shown below, as compared to the exchange ratio in the proposed merger of 1.0309.


	Implied exchange ratio

FV / 2015E Revenue
Highest Wright multiple to lowest Tornier multiple		1.4182x
Lowest Wright multiple to highest Tornier multiple		0.5369x

FV / 2016E Revenue
Highest Wright multiple to lowest Tornier multiple		1.3269x
Lowest Wright multiple to highest Tornier multiple		0.6363x

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

J.P. Morgan conducted a discounted cash flow analysis for the purpose of determining an implied fully diluted equity value per share for Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares. A discounted cash flow analysis is a method of evaluating an asset using estimates of the future unlevered free cash flows generated by the asset and taking into consideration the time value of money with respect to those future cash flows by calculating their “present value.” The “unlevered free cash flows” refers to a calculation of the future cash flows of an asset without including in such calculation any debt servicing costs. J.P. Morgan treated stock-based compensation as

a cash expense in the unlevered free cash flow calculation for purposes of its discounted cash flow analysis, as stock-based compensation was viewed as a true economic expense of the business. “Present value” refers to the current value of one or more future cash payments from the asset, which is referred to as that asset’s cash flows, and is obtained by discounting those cash flows back to the present using a discount rate that takes into account macro-economic assumptions and estimates of risk, the opportunity cost of capital, capitalized returns and other appropriate factors. “Terminal value” refers to the capitalized value of all cash flows from an asset for periods beyond the final forecast period.

J.P. Morgan calculated the present value of unlevered free cash flows that each of Wright and Tornier is expected to generate during fiscal years 2014 through 2024 based upon financial projections prepared by the managements of Wright and Tornier, respectively. J.P. Morgan also calculated a range of terminal values for Wright and Tornier at December 31, 2024 by applying a perpetual growth rate ranging from 3.0% to 4.0% to the unlevered free cash flow of Wright and Tornier, respectively, during 2024. The unlevered free cash flows and the range of terminal values were then discounted to present values using a discount rate range of 9.0% to 10.0%, which was chosen by J.P. Morgan based upon an analysis of the weighted average cost of capital of Wright and Tornier. The present value of the unlevered free cash flows and the range of terminal values were then adjusted for Wright’s and Tornier’s estimated 2014 fiscal year-end excess cash, option exercise proceeds and total debt to indicate a range of implied fully diluted equity values per share of Wright shares of $21.00 and $31.00 and a range of implied fully diluted equity values per share of Tornier ordinary shares of $22.25 and $31.50, in each case on a stand-alone basis (i.e., without the Synergies).

J.P. Morgan also performed an additional discounted cash flow analysis of the present value of the Synergies expected to result from the proposed merger, which reflects operating expense synergies and research and development synergies net of implementation costs and revenue dis-synergies. The Tornier synergy estimates were discounted to present value using a range of discount rates from 9.0% to 10.0%, and a range of perpetual growth rates from 3.0% to 4.0%. The analysis indicated a range of implied fully diluted equity values per share of Tornier ordinary shares of $28.50 and $40.25.

J.P. Morgan then calculated (1) the ratio of the highest standalone implied equity value per share for Wright shares to the lowest implied equity value per share for Tornier ordinary shares, and (2) the ratio of the lowest standalone implied equity value per share for Wright shares and the highest implied equity value per share for Tornier ordinary shares to derive an implied exchange ratio range as shown below, as compared to the exchange ratio in the proposed merger of 1.0309.


	Implied exchange ratio
Highest Wright implied equity value per share to lowest Tornier implied equity value per share		1.3933x
Lowest Wright implied equity value per share to highest Tornier implied equity value per share		0.6667x

Contribution Analysis

J.P. Morgan analyzed the contribution of each of Wright and Tornier to the pro forma combined company with respect to (1) market capitalization, (2) projected revenue for fiscal years 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 and (3) EBITDA for fiscal years 2016 and 2017, in each case based upon the projections provided by the managements of Wright and Tornier. J.P. Morgan assumed that each company’s contribution to market capitalization, revenue, or EBITDA reflected its contribution to the combined company’s pro forma firm value. Implied equity value contributions and relative ownership interests were then derived by adjusting the firm value contributions to take into account the net cash as of September 30, 2014 at each company. For each of the analyses performed by J.P. Morgan, J.P. Morgan utilized the treasury stock method described above to calculate fully diluted shares outstanding. The relative ownership interests of each company’s holders derived from each analysis were then used to generate implied exchange ratios.

The analysis indicated that the implied contribution of Wright to the combined company with respect to (1) market capitalization of 59% representing an implied exchange ratio of 1.3506, (2) projected revenue of 47% in 2014, 49% in 2015, 50% in 2016 and 51% in 2017 representing implied exchange ratios of 0.8332, 0.9085, 0.9555 and 0.9939, respectively, and (3) EBITDA of 37% in 2016 and 43% in 2017 representing implied exchange ratios of 0.5475 and 0.7045, respectively, as compared to the exchange ratio in the proposed merger of 1.0309.

Value Creation Analysis—Intrinsic Value Approach

J.P. Morgan prepared a value creation analysis that compared the implied equity value derived from J.P. Morgan’s discounted cash flow analysis of Wright and Tornier to the pro forma ownership of their respective shareholders of the implied equity value of the combined company. The pro forma combined company equity value was equal to: (1) Wright’s standalone discounted cash flow value, plus (2) Tornier’s standalone discounted cash flow value, plus (3) the present value of the net cost synergies expected by the managements of Wright and Tornier, less (4) the estimates of the managements of Wright and Tornier of the transaction-related expenses. For purposes of the discounted cash flow values used in this analysis, J.P. Morgan used a perpetual growth rate of 3.5% for the unlevered free cash flow of Wright and Tornier, and a discount rate of 9.5%. J.P. Morgan then determined the implied pro forma equity value of the combined company attributable to Wright shareholders based on the economic equity ownership percentage of the combined company to be owned by the Wright shareholders implied by the exchange ratio provided for in the merger agreement.

J.P. Morgan then compared the result to the implied equity value of Wright on a standalone basis derived from the discounted cash flow analysis described above. The value creation analysis indicated implied pro forma accretion in economic equity value to the holders of Wright shares of 16%.

Miscellaneous

The foregoing summary of certain financial analyses does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses or data presented by J.P. Morgan. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. J.P. Morgan believes that the foregoing summary and its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of the foregoing summary and these analyses, without considering all of its analyses as a whole and the narrative description of the analyses, could create an incomplete view of the processes underlying its analyses and opinion. As a result, the ranges of valuations resulting from any particular analysis or combination of analyses described above were merely utilized to create points of reference for analytical purposes and should not be taken to be the view of J.P. Morgan with respect to the actual value of Wright or Tornier. The order of analyses described does not represent the relative importance or weight given to those analyses by J.P. Morgan. In arriving at its opinion, J.P. Morgan did not attribute any particular weight to any analyses or factors considered by it and did not form an opinion as to whether any individual analysis or factor (positive or negative), considered in isolation, supported or failed to support its opinion. Rather, J.P. Morgan considered the totality of the factors and analyses performed in determining its opinion.

Analyses based upon forecasts of future results are inherently uncertain, as they are subject to numerous factors or events beyond the control of the parties and their advisors. Accordingly, forecasts and analyses used or performed by J.P. Morgan are not necessarily indicative of actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by those analyses. Moreover, J.P. Morgan’s analyses are not and do not purport to be appraisals or otherwise reflective of the prices at which businesses actually could be acquired or sold. None of the selected companies reviewed as described in the above summary is identical to Wright or Tornier, and none of the selected transactions reviewed as described in the above summary is identical to the proposed merger. However, the companies selected were chosen because they are publicly traded companies with operations and businesses that, for purposes of J.P. Morgan’s analyses, may be considered similar to those of Wright and Tornier. The transactions selected were similarly chosen for their participants, size and other factors

that, for purposes of J.P. Morgan’s analyses, may be considered similar to those of the proposed merger. The analyses necessarily involve complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operational characteristics of the companies involved and other factors that could affect the companies compared to Wright and Tornier and the transactions compared to the proposed merger.

As a part of its investment banking business, J.P. Morgan and its affiliates are continually engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, investments for passive and control purposes, negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for estate, corporate and other purposes. J.P. Morgan was selected by Wright as its financial advisor with respect to the proposed merger on the basis of, among other things, such experience and its qualifications and reputation in connection with such matters and its familiarity with Wright, Tornier, and the industries in which they operate.

J.P. Morgan has acted as financial advisor to Wright with respect to the proposed merger and will receive a fee from Wright for its services equal to a total of $9 million, $8 million of which will become payable only if the proposed merger is consummated. In addition, Wright has agreed to reimburse J.P. Morgan for its reasonable expenses incurred in connection with its services, including reasonable fees of its counsel, and to indemnify J.P. Morgan and its affiliates for certain liabilities arising out of its engagement. During the two years preceding the date of its opinion, J.P. Morgan and its affiliates have had commercial or investment banking relationships with Wright and Tornier, for which J.P. Morgan and its affiliates have received customary compensation. Such services during such period have included acting as financial advisor to Wright in connection with its acquisition of BioMimetic in March 2013 and acting as a bookrunner on Tornier’s equity offering in May 2013. In the ordinary course of J.P. Morgan’s businesses, J.P. Morgan and its affiliates may actively trade the debt and equity securities of Wright or Tornier for their own account or for the accounts of customers and, accordingly, J.P. Morgan or its affiliates may at any time hold long or short positions in such securities.

Perella Weinberg assumed, with the consent of Wright, that there were no material undisclosed liabilities of Wright or Tornier for which adequate reserves or other provisions were not made. With respect to the Wright Forecasts, Perella Weinberg was advised by the management of Wright and assumed, with the consent of Wright, that such forecasts were reasonably prepared

on bases reflecting the best estimates available at the time and the good faith judgments of the management of Wright as to the future financial performance of Wright and the other matters covered thereby and Perella Weinberg expressed no view as to the assumptions on which such forecasts were based. With respect to the Tornier Forecasts, Perella Weinberg assumed, with the consent of Wright, that such forecasts were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best estimates available at the time and the good faith judgments of the management of Tornier as to the future financial performance of Tornier and the other matters covered thereby and Perella Weinberg expressed no view as to the assumptions on which such forecasts were based.

In addition, Perella Weinberg assumed that in connection with the receipt of all the necessary approvals of the merger, no delays, limitations, conditions or restrictions would be imposed that could have an adverse effect on Wright, Tornier or the contemplated benefits expected to be derived in the merger.

Summary of Material Financial Analyses

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses performed by Perella Weinberg and reviewed by the Wright board of directors in connection with Perella Weinberg’s opinion and does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses performed by Perella Weinberg. The order of analyses described below does not represent the relative importance or weight given to those analyses by Perella Weinberg. Some of the summaries of the financial analyses include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand Perella Weinberg’s financial analyses, the tables must be read together with the text of each summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. Considering the data below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of Perella Weinberg’s financial analyses.

Perella Weinberg reviewed the share price performance of Wright and Tornier during various periods ending on October 24, 2014 (the last trading day prior to the Wright board of directors meeting approving the execution of the merger agreement). Perella Weinberg noted that the range of low and high trading prices of Wright shares during the prior 52-week period was approximately $26.50 to $33.75. Perella Weinberg noted that the range of low and high trading prices of Tornier ordinary shares during the prior 52-week period was approximately $15.25 to $25.00.

Equity Research Analyst Price Targets

Perella Weinberg reviewed and analyzed selected price targets for Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares published by equity research analysts as of October 24, 2014.

The selected price targets reflect each analyst’s estimate of the future public market trading prices of Wright shares and Tornier ordinary shares. Perella Weinberg noted that, as of October 24, 2014, the range of equity analyst price targets for Wright shares was between $32.00 and $40.00 per share, and the median of such targets was $37.00 per share.

Comparable Company Analysis

Perella Weinberg reviewed and compared certain financial information for Wright and Tornier to corresponding financial information, ratios and public market multiples for certain publicly held companies that operate in, or are exposed to, businesses similar to those of Wright and Tornier. Perella Weinberg performed a comparable company analysis in order to derive an implied range of values per share of Wright shares and implied range of values per share of Tornier ordinary shares from ratios and public market multiples for such companies. Although none of the following companies are identical to Wright or to Tornier, Perella Weinberg selected these companies because they had publicly traded equity securities and were deemed to be similar to Wright and Tornier in one or more respects including operating in the medical device, medical apparatus or medical technology manufacturing industry.

Selected Publicly Traded Companies

•

Abiomed, Inc.

•

Cyberonics, Inc.

•

Globus Medical, Inc.

•

Heartware International Inc.

•

Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation

•

LDR Holding Corporation

•

NuVasive, Inc.

•

The Spectranetics Corporation

•

Thoratec Corp.

For each of the selected companies, Perella Weinberg calculated and compared financial information and various financial market multiples and ratios based on company filings for historical information, publically available share price data and certain publicly available financial projections for forecasted information. For Wright and Tornier, Perella Weinberg made calculations based on company filings for historical information and the Wright Forecasts and the Tornier Forecasts, as applicable.

With respect to Wright, Tornier and each of the selected companies, Perella Weinberg reviewed enterprise value (calculated as fully diluted equity value (using the treasury method) plus debt, plus net non-operating liabilities, plus minority interest, less cash and cash equivalents), as a multiple of estimated sales revenues for each of the 2015 and 2016 fiscal years (referred to, respectively, as 2015E EV / Sales Multiple and 2016E EV / Sales Multiple). The per share values used for this analysis were based on the closing share prices of the companies on October 24, 2014.


	2015E EV /sales multiple	2016E EV / sales multiple
Wright	4.9x	4.1x
Tornier	3.2x	2.8x
Other Selected Companies	2.3x – 5.6x	2.1x – 4.9x

Based on the analysis of the relevant metrics for each of the comparable companies and on the experience and judgment of Perella Weinberg, a representative range of financial multiples of the comparable companies was applied to the relevant financial statistics for Wright and Tornier to estimate an implied value per share of Wright shares stock and Tornier ordinary shares. Perella Weinberg estimated the implied value per share of Wright shares and the implied value per share of Tornier ordinary shares, in each case as of October 24, 2014, as follows:


	Comparable company multiple representative range		Implied value per share
Wright
EV / 2015E Management Revenue		3.0x – 5.0x	$	19.50 – $32.50
EV / 2016E Management Revenue		2.5x – 4.0x	$	19.25 – $31.25
Tornier
EV / 2015E Management Revenue		3.0x – 5.0x	$	22.00 – $36.75
EV / 2016E Management Revenue		2.5x – 4.0x	$	20.75 – $33.25

Although the selected companies were used for comparison purposes, no business of any selected company is either identical or directly comparable to either Wright’s or Tornier’s business. Accordingly, Perella Weinberg’s comparison of selected companies to Wright and Tornier and analysis of the results of such comparisons was not purely mathematical, but instead necessarily involved complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the relative values of the selected companies.

Precedent Transaction Analysis

Using publicly available information, Perella Weinberg reviewed the terms of selected precedent transactions involving companies that operated in, or were exposed to, the medical technology or other healthcare industries. Perella Weinberg selected these transactions on the basis of its professional judgment and experience because Perella Weinberg deemed them to be most comparable in size, scope and impact on the industry to Tornier or otherwise relevant to the merger. No company or transaction is, however, identical to Tornier or the merger.

For each transaction, Perella Weinberg calculated and compared the resulting enterprise value in the transaction as a multiple of enterprise value over revenues from the last twelve months publicly reported prior to the announcement of the merger (referred to as EV / LTM Revenues).

(3)	Multiple includes earnout payment of $12 million.

Based on the analysis of the relevant metrics for each of the precedent transactions and on the experience and judgment of Perella Weinberg, a representative range of financial multiples of the transactions was applied to the relevant financial metrics for Tornier to estimate an implied value per share of Tornier ordinary shares. Based on Tornier’s fully diluted equity values (using the treasury method), Perella Weinberg estimated the implied value per share of Tornier ordinary shares, as of October 24, 2014, as follows:


	EV / LTM revenues ⁽¹⁾		Range of implied present value per share
Tornier		4.0x – 6.0x	$	26.25 – $39.50

(1)	EV / LTM Revenues multiple as of December 31, 2014.

No company or transaction utilized as a comparison in the selected precedent transactions analysis is identical to Tornier, nor are any such precedent transactions identical to the merger. In evaluating the transactions listed above, Perella Weinberg made judgments and assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of

100

Wright and Tornier, including, but not limited to, the impact of competition on the business of Wright, Tornier or the industry generally, industry growth, and the absence of any adverse material change in the financial condition and prospects of Wright, Tornier or the industry or in the financial markets in general, which could affect the public trading value of the companies and the aggregate value of the transactions to which they are being compared.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

Tornier

Perella Weinberg conducted a discounted cash flow analysis for Tornier based on: (i) the Tornier Forecasts provided by the management of Tornier and (ii) the Tornier Forecasts assuming the achievement of the Anticipated Synergies, by:

•

calculating, in each case, the present value as of October 24, 2014 of the estimated standalone unlevered free cash flows (calculated as net operating profit after tax, plus depreciation and amortization, minus capital expenditures, and adjusting for changes in net working capital and other cash flows) that Tornier could generate for the remainder of fiscal year 2014 through fiscal year 2024 using discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0% based on estimates of the weighted average cost of capital of Tornier derived using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (“CAPM”), and

•

adding, in each case, terminal values calculated using perpetuity growth rates ranging from 3.0% to 4.0% and discounted using rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0%.

The range of perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Perella Weinberg utilizing its professional judgment and experiences, taking into account the Tornier Forecasts and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic product and inflation. Perella Weinberg also cross-checked such estimates of perpetuity growth rates against the EBITDA multiples implied by such growth rates and a range of discount rates to be applied to Tornier’s future unlevered cash flow forecasts.

Perella Weinberg used a range of discount rates from 9.0% to 10.0% derived by application of the CAPM, which takes into account certain company-specific metrics, including Tornier’s target capital structure, the cost of long-term debt, forecasted tax rate and historical beta, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally.

From the range of implied enterprise values, Perella Weinberg derived ranges of implied equity values for Tornier. To calculate the implied equity value from the implied enterprise value, Perella Weinberg subtracted debt and non-operating liabilities and added cash and cash equivalents. Perella Weinberg calculated implied value per share by dividing the implied equity value by the fully diluted shares (using the treasury method). These analyses resulted in the following reference ranges of implied equity values per share of Tornier ordinary shares:


	Range of implied present value per share		Range of implied present value per share (including anticipated synergies)
Tornier Forecasts		$22.25 – $31.50	$28.50 – $40.25

Wright

Perella Weinberg conducted a discounted cash flow analysis for Wright based on the Wright Forecasts by:

•

calculating the present value as of October 24, 2014 of the estimated standalone unlevered free cash flows (calculated as net operating profit after tax, plus depreciation and amortization, minus capital expenditures, and adjusting for changes in net working capital and other cash flows) that Wright could generate for the remainder of fiscal year 2014 through fiscal year 2024 using discount rates ranging

101

from 9.0% to 10.0% based on estimates of the weighted average cost of capital of Wright derived using the CAPM, and

•

adding terminal values calculated using perpetuity growth rates ranging from 3.0% to 4.0% and discounted using rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0%.

The range of perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Perella Weinberg utilizing its professional judgment and experiences, taking into account the Wright Forecasts and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic product and inflation. Perella Weinberg also cross-checked such estimates of perpetuity growth rates against the EBITDA multiples implied by such growth rates and a range of discount rates to be applied to Wright’s future unlevered cash flow forecasts.

Perella Weinberg used a range of discount rates from 9.0% to 10.0% derived by application of the CAPM, which takes into account certain company-specific metrics, including Wright’s target capital structure, the cost of long-term debt, forecasted tax rate and historical beta, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally.

From the range of implied enterprise values, Perella Weinberg derived ranges of implied equity values for Wright. To calculate the implied equity value from the implied enterprise value, Perella Weinberg subtracted debt, non-operating liabilities and minority interest and added cash and cash equivalents. Perella Weinberg calculated implied value per share by dividing the implied equity value by the fully diluted shares (using the treasury method). These analyses resulted in the following reference range of implied equity value per share of Wright shares:


	Range of implied present value per share
Wright Forecasts	$	21.00 – $31.00

Miscellaneous

The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Selecting portions of the analyses or of the summary set forth herein, without considering the analyses or the summary as a whole could create an incomplete view of the processes underlying Perella Weinberg’s opinion. In arriving at its fairness determination, Perella Weinberg considered the results of all of its analyses and did not attribute any particular weight to any factor or analysis considered. Rather, Perella Weinberg made its determination as to fairness on the basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all of its analyses. No company or transaction used in the analyses described herein as a comparison is directly comparable to Wright, Tornier or the merger.

Perella Weinberg prepared the analyses described herein for purposes of providing its opinion to the Wright board of directors as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, as of the date of such opinion, of the exchange ratio of 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares to be received for each share of Wright common stock as provided for in the merger agreement to the holders of Wright common stock (other than Tornier or any of its affiliates). These analyses do not purport to be appraisals or necessarily reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Perella Weinberg’s analyses were based in part upon third party research analyst estimates, which are not necessarily indicative of actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by Perella Weinberg’s analyses. Because these analyses are inherently subject to uncertainty, being based upon numerous factors or events beyond the control of the parties to the merger Agreement or their respective advisors, none of Wright, Tornier, Perella Weinberg or any other person assumes responsibility if future results are materially different from those forecasted by third parties.

As described above, the opinion of Perella Weinberg to the Wright board of directors was one of many factors taken into consideration by the Wright board of directors in making its determination to approve the

102

merger. Perella Weinberg was not asked to, and did not, recommend the specific consideration to the Wright shareholders provided for in the merger agreement, which consideration was determined through arm’s length negotiations between Wright and Tornier.

Pursuant to the terms of the engagement letter between Perella Weinberg and Wright dated as of October 24, 2014, Wright became obligated to pay Perella Weinberg $1 million upon the delivery of Perella Weinberg’s opinion, and has agreed to pay Perella Weinberg an additional $8 million upon the closing of the merger. In addition, Wright agreed to reimburse Perella Weinberg for its reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and to indemnify Perella Weinberg and related persons against various liabilities, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws.

In the ordinary course of its business activities, Perella Weinberg or its affiliates may at any time hold long or short positions, and may trade or otherwise effect transactions, for their own accounts or the accounts of their customers or clients, in debt or equity or other securities (or related derivative securities) or financial instruments (including bank loans or other obligations) of Wright or Tornier or any of their respective affiliates.

During the two-year period prior to the date of Perella Weinberg’s opinion, Perella Weinberg and its affiliates provided certain investment banking services to Wright and its affiliates for which Perella Weinberg and its affiliates received compensation, including having acted as financial advisor to Wright in its acquisition of Solana Surgical, LLC. Perella Weinberg and its affiliates may in the future provide investment banking and other financial services to Wright or Tornier, or their respective affiliates and in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of such services.

Opinion of Tornier’s Financial Advisor

Tornier has retained BofA Merrill Lynch to act as Tornier’s financial advisor in connection with the merger. BofA Merrill Lynch is an internationally recognized investment banking firm which is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses and securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for corporate and other purposes.

BofA Merrill Lynch delivered its opinion to the Tornier board of directors for the benefit and use of the Tornier board of directors (in its capacity as such) in connection with and for purposes of its evaluation of the exchange ratio provided for in the merger from a financial point of view. BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion does not address any other aspect of the merger and no opinion or view was expressed as to the relative merits of the merger in comparison to other strategies or transactions that might be available to Tornier or in which Tornier might engage or as to the underlying business decision of Tornier to proceed with or effect the merger. BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion does not address any other aspect of the merger and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as to how to vote or act in connection with the proposed merger or any related matter.

With respect to the Adjusted Wright Forecasts, BofA Merrill Lynch assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that the management of Tornier’s review of and adjustments to the Wright Forecasts were reasonably performed and that the Adjusted Wright Forecasts reflect the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of Tornier as to the future financial performance of Wright and the other matters covered thereby and BofA Merrill Lynch relied, at the direction of Tornier, on the Adjusted Wright Forecasts for purposes of its analysis and opinion. BofA Merrill Lynch relied, at the direction of Tornier, on the assessments of the management of Tornier as to Tornier’s ability to achieve the Synergies and was advised by Tornier, and assumed, with the consent of Tornier, that the Synergies would be realized in the amounts and at the times projected. BofA Merrill Lynch did not make nor was it provided with any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of Tornier, Wright or any other entity, nor did it make any physical inspection of the properties or assets of Tornier, Wright or any other entity and BofA Merrill Lynch assumed, with the consent of Tornier, that there were no material undisclosed liabilities of or relating to Tornier, Wright or any other entity for which appropriate reserves or other provisions were not made. BofA Merrill Lynch did not evaluate the solvency or fair value of Tornier, Wright or any other entity under any state, federal or other laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. BofA Merrill Lynch assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that the merger would be consummated in accordance with its terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory and other approvals, consents, releases and waivers for the merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition, including any divestiture requirements or amendments or modifications, would be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Tornier, Wright or any other entity or the merger (including the contemplated benefits of the merger). Tornier advised BofA Merrill Lynch and for purposes of its analyses and its opinion BofA Merrill Lynch assumed, at Tornier’s direction, that the merger would qualify for federal income tax purposes as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. BofA Merrill Lynch also assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that the final executed merger agreement would not differ in any material respect from the draft, dated October 25, 2014, of the merger agreement reviewed by BofA Merrill Lynch.

BofA Merrill Lynch expressed no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects or implications of the merger (other than the exchange ratio to the extent expressly specified in its opinion), including, without limitation, the form or structure of the merger or any terms, aspects or implications of any voting and support agreement or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection with or related to the merger or otherwise. BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion was limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to Tornier of the exchange ratio provided for in the merger and no opinion or view was expressed with respect to any consideration received in connection with the merger by the holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of any party. In addition, no opinion or view was expressed with respect to the fairness (financial or otherwise) of the amount, nature or any other aspect of any compensation to any of the officers, directors or employees of any party to the merger, or class of such persons, relative to the exchange ratio or otherwise. Furthermore, no opinion or view was expressed as to the relative merits of the merger in comparison to other strategies or transactions that might be available to Tornier or in which Tornier might engage or as to the underlying business decision of Tornier to proceed with or effect the merger. In addition, BofA Merrill Lynch did not express any view or opinion with respect to, and relied, at the direction of Tornier, upon the assessments of representatives of Tornier regarding, legal, regulatory, accounting, tax and similar matters relating to Tornier, Wright or any other entity and the merger (including the contemplated benefits of the merger) as to which BofA Merrill Lynch understood that Tornier obtained such advice as it deemed necessary from qualified professionals. BofA Merrill Lynch also did not express any opinion as to what the value of Tornier ordinary shares actually would be when issued or the prices at which Tornier ordinary shares or Wright shares would trade at any time, including following the announcement or the consummation of the merger. In addition, BofA Merrill Lynch expressed no opinion or recommendation as to how any shareholder should vote or act in connection with the merger or any related matter. Except as described above, Tornier imposed no other limitations on the investigations made or procedures followed by BofA Merrill Lynch in rendering its opinion.

BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion was necessarily based on financial, economic, monetary, market and other conditions and circumstances as in effect on, and the information made available to BofA Merrill Lynch as of, the date of its opinion. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect its opinion, and BofA Merrill Lynch does not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its opinion. The issuance of BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion was approved by BofA Merrill Lynch’s Americas Fairness Opinion Review Committee.

The following represents a brief summary of the material financial analyses presented by BofA Merrill Lynch to the Tornier board of directors in connection with its opinion. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand the financial analyses performed by BofA Merrill Lynch, the tables must be read together with the text of each summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses performed by BofA Merrill Lynch. Considering the data set forth in the tables below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the financial analyses performed by BofA Merrill Lynch.

BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed, among other things, the enterprise values of the selected publicly traded companies, calculated as equity values based on closing stock prices on October 23, 2014, plus debt and minority interests, less cash, as a multiple of calendar years 2014 and 2015 estimated revenue. BofA Merrill Lynch also reviewed the estimated revenue growth rates of the selected publicly traded companies for calendar years 2014, 2015 and 2016. BofA Merrill Lynch then applied calendar year 2014 and 2015 revenue multiples of 3.00x to 4.50x and 2.50x to 4.00x, respectively, derived from the selected publicly traded companies to Tornier’s calendar year 2014 and 2015 estimated revenue, respectively. Estimated financial data of the selected publicly traded companies were based on publicly available research analysts’ estimates, and estimated financial data of Tornier were based on the Tornier Forecasts. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity

106

value reference ranges for Tornier, rounded to the nearest $0.05, as compared to the implied share price for Tornier ordinary shares provided for in the merger:


Implied per share equity value reference ranges for Tornier		Implied share price ¹
2014E revenue	2015E revenue
$20.05 – $29.90	$18.55 – $29.65	$30.23

No company used in this analysis is identical or directly comparable to Tornier. Accordingly, an evaluation of the results of this analysis is not entirely mathematical. Rather, this analysis involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the public trading or other values of the companies to which Tornier was compared.

No company, business or transaction used in this analysis is identical or directly comparable to Tornier or the merger. Accordingly, an evaluation of the results of this analysis is not entirely mathematical. Rather, this analysis involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the acquisition or other values of the companies, business segments or transactions to which Tornier and the merger were compared.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. BofA Merrill Lynch performed a discounted cash flow analysis of Tornier to calculate the estimated present value of the standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that Tornier was forecasted to generate during Tornier’s fiscal years 2015 through 2019 based on the Tornier Forecasts. BofA Merrill Lynch calculated terminal values for Tornier by applying terminal last twelve month multiples of 3.00x to 3.50x to Tornier’s fiscal year 2019 estimated revenue. The cash flows and terminal values were then discounted to present value as of December 31, 2014 using discount rates ranging from 8.00% to 10.00%, which were based on an estimate of Tornier’s weighted average cost of capital. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference range for Tornier, rounded to the nearest $0.05, as compared to the implied share price for Tornier ordinary shares provided for in the merger:


Implied per share equity value reference range for Tornier	Implied share price ³
$22.80 – $28.85	$	30.23

BofA Merrill Lynch performed a similar discounted cash flow analysis of Tornier to calculate the estimated present value of the standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that Tornier was forecasted to generate during Tornier’s fiscal years 2015 through 2019 based on the Tornier Forecasts, but also including the estimated present value of Tornier’s net operating losses. BofA Merrill Lynch calculated the estimated present value of the net operating losses based on a net operating losses balance of $82 million as of December 31, 2013, per Tornier’s most recent Form 10-K, plus $16 million for the loss before tax for the 6 month period ending in June 29, 2014, per Tornier’s most recent Form 10-Q, a limitation on net operating loss carryforwards and certain built-in losses following an ownership change per section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, a federal tax-exempt rate of 2.91% per Tornier management, a federal corporate tax rate of 30% per Tornier management, and a weighted average cost of capital of 9.00%. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference range for Tornier, rounded to the nearest $0.05, as compared to the implied share price for Tornier ordinary shares provided for in the merger:

BofA Merrill Lynch also reviewed the estimated revenue growth rates of the selected publicly traded companies for calendar years 2014, 2015 and 2016. BofA Merrill Lynch then applied calendar year 2014 and 2015 revenue multiples of 4.25x to 6.00x and 3.75x to 5.00x, respectively, derived from the selected publicly traded companies, to Wright’s calendar year 2014 and 2015 estimated revenue, respectively. Estimated financial data of the selected publicly traded companies were based on publicly available research analysts’ estimates, and estimated financial data of Wright were based on the Adjusted Wright Forecasts. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference ranges for Wright, rounded to the nearest $0.05, as compared to the 30-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of Wright shares as of October 23, 2014:

Relative Valuation

Based on the implied per share equity value reference ranges for Tornier and Wright calculated as described above, these analyses indicated the following implied exchange ratio reference range, as compared to the exchange ratio provided for in the merger:

Pro Forma Accretion/Dilution Analysis

BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed the potential pro forma financial effect of the merger on Tornier’s calendar years 2015 through 2019 estimated Cash EPS, defined as earnings per share after adding back tax-effected amortization and stock based compensation expense. Estimated financial data of Tornier were based on the

110

Tornier Forecasts and estimated financial data of Wright were based on the Adjusted Wright Forecasts. Based on the exchange ratio provided for in the merger, this analysis indicated that the merger could be dilutive to Tornier’s estimated Cash EPS for calendars years 2015 through 2016 and accretive to Tornier’s estimated Cash EPS for calendar years 2017 through 2019. The actual results achieved by the combined company may vary from projected results and the variations may be material.

Other Factors

In rendering its opinion, BofA Merrill Lynch also reviewed and considered other factors, including:

•

historical trading prices and trading volumes of Tornier ordinary shares and Wright shares during the one-year period ended October 23, 2014;

•

the relationship between movements in Tornier ordinary shares and Wright shares during the three-year period ended October 23, 2014, including the daily ratio of the closing price of Wright shares to the closing price of Tornier ordinary shares during such period, and the average of this ratio calculated over various periods ended October 23, 2014;

•

selected analyst price targets for Tornier and Wright found in recently published, publicly available Wall Street research analysts reports as of October 23, 2014, discounted to present value at their respective cost of equity, and selected analyst revenue estimates, EBITDA estimates and EPS estimates for Wright shares found in recently published, publicly available Wall Street research analyst reports as of October 23, 2014;

•

the relative contribution of Tornier and Wright to the pro forma combined company based on the market capitalization of Tornier and Wright as of October 23, 2014, and the relative contribution of Tornier and Wright to the pro forma combined company based on calendar year 2013 revenue, last twelve month revenue as of September 30, 2014, annualized third quarter 2014 revenue, calendar years 2014 through 2017 estimated revenue and calendar years 2015 through 2017 estimated adjusted EBITDA, based on the Tornier Forecasts and the Adjusted Wright Forecasts; and

•

the present value of the future price per share of ordinary shares of Tornier as a standalone company at its current enterprise value to estimated revenue multiple for calendar years 2014 through 2017, compared to the implied present value per share of ordinary shares of Tornier on a pro forma basis taking into account the merger at the implied blended enterprise value to estimated revenue multiple of the combined company for calendar years 2014 through 2017, based on the exchange ratio provided for in the merger;

Miscellaneous

As noted above, the discussion set forth above is a summary of the material financial analyses presented by BofA Merrill Lynch to the Tornier board of directors in connection with its opinion and is not a comprehensive description of all analyses undertaken by BofA Merrill Lynch in connection with its opinion. The preparation of a financial opinion is a complex analytical process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances and, therefore, a financial opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. BofA Merrill Lynch believes that its analyses summarized above must be considered as a whole. BofA Merrill Lynch further believes that selecting portions of its analyses and the factors considered or focusing on information presented in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the narrative description of the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying BofA Merrill Lynch’s analyses and opinion. The fact that any specific analysis has been referred to in the summary above is not meant to indicate that such analysis was given greater weight than any other analysis referred to in the summary.

In performing its analyses, BofA Merrill Lynch considered industry performance, general business and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of Tornier and Wright. The

111

estimates of the future performance of Tornier and Wright in or underlying BofA Merrill Lynch’s analyses are not necessarily indicative of actual values or actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those estimates or those suggested by BofA Merrill Lynch’s analyses. These analyses were prepared solely as part of BofA Merrill Lynch’s analysis of the fairness to Tornier, from a financial point of view, of the exchange ratio provided for in the merger and were provided to the Tornier board of directors in connection with the delivery of BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion. The analyses do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which a company might actually be sold or the prices at which any securities have traded or may trade at any time in the future. Accordingly, the estimates used in, and the ranges of valuations resulting from, any particular analysis described above are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty and should not be taken to be BofA Merrill Lynch’s view of the actual values of Tornier or Wright.

The type and amount of consideration payable in the merger was determined through negotiations between Tornier and Wright, rather than by any financial advisor, and was approved by the Tornier board of directors. The decision to enter into the merger agreement was solely that of the Tornier board of directors. As described above, BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion and analyses were only one of many factors considered by the Tornier board of directors in its evaluation of the proposed merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of the Tornier board of directors or management with respect to the merger or the exchange ratio provided for in the merger.

Tornier has agreed to pay BofA Merrill Lynch for its services in connection with the merger an aggregate fee currently estimated to be approximately $12.2 million, a portion of which was payable in connection with its opinion and a significant portion of which is contingent upon the completion of the merger. Tornier also has agreed to reimburse BofA Merrill Lynch for its expenses incurred in connection with BofA Merrill Lynch’s engagement and to indemnify BofA Merrill Lynch, any controlling person of BofA Merrill Lynch and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities laws.

BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates comprise a full service securities firm and commercial bank engaged in securities, commodities and derivatives trading, foreign exchange and other brokerage activities, and principal investing as well as providing investment, corporate and private banking, asset and investment management, financing and financial advisory services and other commercial services and products to a wide range of companies, governments and individuals. In the ordinary course of their businesses, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates invest on a principal basis or on behalf of customers or manage funds that invest, make or hold long or short positions, finance positions or trade or otherwise effect transactions in the equity, debt or other securities or financial instruments (including derivatives, bank loans or other obligations) of Wright, certain of its affiliates, Tornier and certain of its affiliates (including Warburg Pincus LLC and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies).

BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as financial advisor to certain of Tornier’s affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, in connection with certain mergers and acquisition transactions, (ii) having acted or acting as a bookrunner and/or underwriter for various debt and equity offerings of Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, (iii) having acted or acting as an administrative agent, bookrunner and arranger for, and/or as a lender under, certain term loans, letters of credit, credit and leasing facilities and other credit arrangements of Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies (including acquisition financing), (iv) having provided or providing certain derivatives, foreign exchange and other trading services to certain of Tornier’s affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, (v) having provided or providing certain managed institutional investments services and

112

products to Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and (vi) having provided or providing certain treasury management products and services to Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg Pincus LLC and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies. In addition, an employee of BofA Merrill Lynch is a non-voting advisory board observer with respect to the advisory boards of certain affiliates of Warburg Pincus LLC.

In addition, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Wright and certain of its affiliates and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as administrative agent, bookrunner and arranger for, and/or as a lender under, certain letters of credit and credit and leasing facilities of Wright and certain of its affiliates, (ii) having provided or providing certain derivatives, foreign exchange and other trading services to Wright and certain of its affiliates, (iii) having provided or providing certain managed institutional investments services and products to Wright and certain of its affiliates, and (iv) having provided or providing certain treasury management products and services to Wright and certain of its affiliates.

Call Spread Transactions

Concurrent with Wright’s issuance in August 2012 of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% cash convertible senior notes due 2017 (the “Convertible Notes”), Wright purchased call options (referred to as the “Convertible Note Hedge Transactions”) and sold warrants (referred to as the “Issuer Warrant Transactions”, collectively, the “Call Spread Transactions”). The Convertible Note Hedge Transactions were intended to partially offset the dilution that could occur upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, and the Issuer Warrant Transactions offset the cost to Wright of the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions. The Call Spread Transactions were entered into with three banks (the “Call Spread Transaction Counterparties”), including Bank of America, N.A. (“BANA”), an affiliate of BofA Merrill Lynch. BANA was the Call Spread Transaction counterparty in respect of 40% of the aggregate notional amount of the Call Spread Transactions.

The indenture governing the Convertible Notes was included as an exhibit to Wright’s current report on Form 8-K filed by Wright with the SEC on September 4, 2012, and the confirmations containing the terms of the Call Spread Transactions were included as exhibits to Wright’s current reports on Form 8-K filed by Wright with the SEC on August 28 and September 4, 2012.

If the merger is consummated, each Issuer Warrant Transaction (unless earlier terminated) would terminate in accordance with its terms and the applicable Call Spread Transaction Counterparty would be entitled to receive a termination payment from Wright, as described in greater detail below. Consummation of the merger also would give each such Call Spread Transaction Counterparty the right to terminate its Convertible Note Hedge Transaction. The Convertible Note Hedge Transactions (unless earlier terminated) are expected to be so terminated upon consummation of the merger and, upon such a termination, the applicable Call Spread Transaction Counterparty would be obligated to make a termination payment to Wright, as described in greater detail below. Subject to certain conditions, any termination payment described in this paragraph above could be satisfied by the payment of cash or the delivery of stock consideration with an equivalent value.

The amount of any termination payment described above would be determined pursuant to a negotiation between Wright and the applicable Call Spread Transaction Counterparty. If, however, Wright and the applicable Call Spread Transaction Counterparty do not agree on the amount of the termination payment within a specified period after the termination date, the Call Spread Transaction Counterparty (as the calculation agent under each Call Spread Transaction) would determine the termination payment amount in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. The termination payment amount for each Call Spread Transaction would likely depend on a variety of factors, including the date on which the merger is consummated, the value of the stock consideration received in connection with the merger, the volatility of Wright’s shares, the hedge unwind costs incurred by the applicable Call Spread Transaction Counterparty and relevant interest rates.

113

Under the Call Spread Transactions to which it was a counterparty, BANA had market exposure to the price of Wright’s shares. It is standard industry practice, and BANA’s ordinary practice, to engage in hedging activities to reduce market exposure to the price of the common stock underlying derivative transactions such as the Call Spread Transactions. Such hedging included BANA either purchasing or selling shares of Wright shares or related instruments to offset the exposure to Wright shares BANA had under the Call Spread Transactions. BANA’s hedging was intended to substantially reduce BANA’s exposure under the Call Spread Transactions to changes in the price of Wright shares.

Hedging does not fully offset every risk or change in market conditions. Hedging is designed to offset a range of normal price movements under a range of typical market conditions, based on publicly available information, and thus might not fully offset extraordinary market events or conditions (such as the announcement of a merger transaction) that might have a material effect on the price, volatility or other characteristics of Wright shares. BANA’s hedging activity was at its own risk and might result in a loss or profit to BANA in an amount that might be less than or greater than the expected contractual benefit or obligation to BANA under the Call Spread Transactions it entered into. BANA’s ultimate loss or profit with respect to the Call Spread Transactions after taking into account its hedging activity would depend on many factors, including the original net premium received by BANA for the Call Spread Transactions, the price at which BANA established its initial hedge position in respect of the Call Spread Transactions, the deliveries or payments made or received pursuant to the Call Spread Transactions, the profit and loss realized by BANA in connection with rebalancing its stock hedge positions during the term of the Call Spread Transactions (such rebalancing occurring as frequently as intra-day), and the premium or other amounts paid, and payments received, in connection with entering into or maintaining any option position or other derivative transaction used to hedge the Call Spread Transactions, the volatility of Wright shares and the prices at which BANA would close out these hedge positions. The amount of any loss or profit would not be known until all of the Call Spread Transactions to which BANA was a party would have been terminated and BANA would have completed all of its related hedge unwind activities. In accordance with industry practices, BofA Merrill Lynch maintains an enterprise information wall reasonably designed to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information by or to employees in its investment banking division to or by employees on the “public” side of BofA Merrill Lynch, including the employees who undertake these hedging and other market transactions.

In February 2015, the Call Spread Transactions were terminated and settled by Wright and the applicable Call Spread Transaction Counterparties, including BANA, in connection with the issuance by Wright of $632.5 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.00% Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 and the repurchases by Wright of approximately $240 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in privately negotiated transactions. The termination and settlement of the Call Spread Transactions resulted in a net payment of approximately $3.8 million from BANA to Wright.

Certain Financial Forecasts of Wright Used in Connection with the Merger

Wright does not publicly disclose long-term projections as to future revenues, earnings or other results due to, among other reasons, the uncertainty and subjectivity of the underlying assumptions and estimates. As a result, Wright does not endorse the unaudited prospective financial information as a reliable indication of future results. Wright is including the limited unaudited prospective financial information in this joint proxy statement/prospectus solely because it was among the financial information made available to the Wright board of directors, J.P. Morgan, Perella Weinberg, Tornier and BofA Merrill Lynch in connection with their evaluation of the merger. The unaudited prospective financial data presented below includes projections prepared by Wright management for internal planning purposes in the fourth quarter of 2014. Moreover, Wright’s internally prepared unaudited prospective financial information was based on estimates and assumptions made by management in the fourth quarter of 2014 and speak only as of that time. Wright reviews and updates its internal projections regularly. Except to the extent required by applicable law, Wright has no obligation to update prospective financial data included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and, except as provided below, has not done so and does not intend to do so.

114

The inclusion of this information should not be regarded as an indication that any of Wright, J.P. Morgan, Perella Weinberg, Tornier and BofA Merrill Lynch or any other recipient of this information considered, or now considers, it to be necessarily predictive of actual future results. There can be no assurance that the prospective results will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than estimated.

Since the unaudited prospective financial information covers multiple years, such information by its nature becomes less predictive with each successive year. Wright and Tornier shareholders are urged to review the SEC filings of Wright for a description of risk factors with respect to the business of Wright. See “ Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ” and “ Where You Can Find More Information ” beginning on pages 41 and 300, respectively, of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The unaudited prospective financial information was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure, nor was it prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the SEC, the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information, or GAAP. The independent registered public accounting firm of Wright has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the accompanying unaudited prospective financial information for the purpose of its inclusion herein, and accordingly, the independent registered public accounting firm of Wright does not express an opinion or provide any form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The report of the independent registered public accounting firm of Wright contained in the Annual Report of Wright on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which is incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, relates to the historical financial information of Wright. It does not extend to the unaudited prospective financial information and should not be read to do so. Furthermore, the unaudited prospective financial information does not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date it was prepared. The unaudited prospective financial information does not give effect to the merger.

The following table presents selected unaudited prospective financial data.


	Fiscal year ending December 31,

(1)	Operating (loss) income is adjusted for extraordinary items.

(2)

Non-GAAP measure. For this purpose, EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income charges for interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expenses. The adjusted EBITDA forecast excludes non-cash stock based compensation expense and non-operating income and expense, as well as the expected impact of such items as transaction and transition costs, impacts from the sale of Wright’s OrthoRecon (hip/knee) business and costs associated with distributor conversions and non-competes.

The unaudited prospective financial data assumed that the FDA would approve, and that Wright would begin to commercialize, the Augment Bone Graft product during the first half of 2015, as well as certain sales targets for the Total Ankle product.

Although presented with numerical specificity, the above unaudited prospective financial information reflects numerous assumptions and estimates as to future events made by the management of Wright. At the time the unaudited prospective financial information was prepared, Wright’s management believed such assumptions and estimates were reasonable. In preparing the foregoing unaudited projected financial information, Wright made assumptions regarding, among other things, pricing and volume of products sold, production costs, interest rates, corporate financing activities, including amount and timing of the issuance of debt, the timing and amount of common stock issuances, the effective tax rate, the amount of general and administrative costs and Wright’s anticipated acquisition or disposition activities.

115

No assurances can be given that the assumptions made in preparing the above unaudited prospective financial information will accurately reflect future conditions. The estimates and assumptions underlying the unaudited prospective financial information involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, regulatory and financial market conditions and future business decisions which may not be realized and that are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and regulatory uncertainties and contingencies, including, among others, risks and uncertainties described under “ Risk Factors ” and “ Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ” beginning on pages 28 and 41, respectively, of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of Wright and/or Tornier and will be beyond the control of the combined company. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumptions will prove to be accurate or that the projected results will be realized, and actual results likely will differ, and may differ materially, from those reflected in the unaudited prospective financial information, whether or not the merger is completed.

Wright and Tornier shareholders are urged to review Wright’s most recent SEC filings for a description of Wright’s reported and anticipated results of operations and financial condition and capital resources during 2014, including “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ” in Wright’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which is incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Readers of this joint proxy statement/prospectus are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the unaudited prospective financial information set forth above. No representation is made by Wright, Tornier or any other person to any Wright or Tornier shareholder regarding the ultimate performance of Wright compared to the information included in the above unaudited prospective financial information. The inclusion of unaudited prospective financial information in this joint proxy statement/prospectus should not be regarded as an indication that such prospective financial information will be an accurate prediction of future events, and such information should not be relied on as such.

Wright does not intend to update or otherwise revise the above unaudited prospective financial information to reflect circumstances existing after the date when made or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying such prospective financial information are no longer appropriate, except as may be required by law.

Tornier does not publicly disclose long-term projections as to future revenues, earnings or other results due to, among other reasons, the uncertainty and subjectivity of the underlying assumptions and estimates.

Non-GAAP measure. For this purpose, non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA represents GAAP net (loss) income before interest income and expense, income tax expense and benefit, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to give effect to, among other things, non-operating income and expense, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, share-based compensation, amortization of the inventory step-up from acquisitions and special charges including acquisition, integration and distribution transition costs, restructuring charges, and certain other items that affect the comparability and trend of Tornier’s operating results.

Wright and Tornier calculate certain non-GAAP financial metrics including EBITDA using different methodologies. Consequently, the financial metrics presented in each company’s prospective financial information disclosures and in the sections of this document with respect to the opinions of the financial advisors to Wright and Tornier may not be directly comparable to one another.

Although presented with numerical specificity, the above unaudited prospective financial information reflects numerous assumptions and estimates as to future events made by the management of Tornier.

Board of Directors and Management After the Merger

Upon completion of the merger, the board of directors of the combined company will consist of ten directors, including two executive directors and eight non-executive directors. The two executive directors will be Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry and the eight non-executive directors will be: Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman. In each case, these directors will be appointed effective as of the effective time of the merger to serve until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified. It is anticipated that David D. Stevens will serve as Chairman of the Board. Following the effective time of the merger, the combined company will not have a classified or staggered board of directors. Information regarding these individuals, including their biographical information, can be found under “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6—Appointment of Directors—Additional Information About Executive Director Nominees ” and “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6—Appointment of Directors—Additional Information About Non-Executive Director Nominees .”

Upon completion of the merger, Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, will serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company, and David H. Mowry, Tornier’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, will serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the combined company. Lance A. Berry, Wright’s current Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, will serve as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the combined company. Other officers of the combined company will be from the existing management teams of Wright and Tornier. Although general terms of Mr. Palmisano’s, Mr. Mowry’s, Mr. Berry’s and other officers’ compensation

118

arrangements with the combined company have been discussed, no agreements reflecting such terms have been finalized as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. These matters are subject to further negotiations and discussions and there can be no assurance that the parties will reach agreement.

Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger

In considering the recommendation of the Wright board of directors to Wright shareholders to vote in favor of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger, and the other matters to be acted upon by Wright shareholders at the Wright special meeting, Wright shareholders should be aware that certain directors and executive officers of Wright will have interests in the merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of Wright shareholders generally or which may conflict with the interests of Wright shareholders. The Wright board of directors was aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, when it evaluated, supervised the negotiation of and approved the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and in making its recommendations to the Wright shareholders. These interests are described in more detail and quantified below.

Ownership Interests

As of May 5, 2015, the latest practicable date before the printing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, directors and executive officers of Wright, together with their respective affiliates, were entitled to vote 777,925 Wright shares, or approximately 1.51% of the Wright shares outstanding on that date. Assuming the merger had been completed as of such date, all directors and executive officers of Wright, together with their respective affiliates, would beneficially own, in the aggregate, 2.85% of the outstanding ordinary shares of the combined company.

For a more complete discussion of the ownership interests of the directors and executive officers of Wright, see “ Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners, Management and Directors of Wright .”

Positions with the Combined Company

As described under “ —Board of Directors and Management After the Merger, ” as of the effective time of the merger:

•

The board of directors of the combined company will include: Robert J. Palmisano, Gary D. Blackford, John L. Miclot, Amy S. Paul and David D. Stevens, all of whom are current members of the Wright board of directors and such directors, with the exception of Mr. Palmisano, will receive cash and equity compensation for such service.

•

Mr. Palmisano will be appointed President and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company. Mr. Berry will be appointed Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the combined company. Certain other officers of the combined company will be from Wright’s existing management team and such officers are expected to receive cash and equity compensation for such service.

•

It is anticipated that Mr. Stevens will be appointed Chairman of the Board and will receive cash and equity compensation for such service.

Accelerated Vesting of Wright Stock Options and Other Wright Equity-Based Awards

Pursuant to their terms, all Wright equity awards that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time will automatically accelerate in full in connection with the merger. Accordingly, pursuant to the merger agreement, all Wright shares and Wright equity awards, including those held by the directors and executive officers of Wright, will be treated as follows: (a) at the effective time, each Wright share will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares; (b) immediately prior to the effective time of the merger,

119

each option to acquire Wright shares that is then outstanding will be (or, to the extent it is unvested, will automatically become) fully vested and exchanged for an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the option prior to the merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the merger), that number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (i) the number of Wright shares subject to the option and (ii) 1.0309, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Tornier ordinary shares, at an exercise price per Tornier ordinary share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of the Wright option by (y) 1.0309, rounded up to the nearest whole cent; (c) immediately prior to the effective time, each Wright restricted share that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 ordinary shares of Tornier; and (d) immediately prior to the effective time, each Wright restricted stock unit award that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions, and, at the effective time, be cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive that number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (i) the total number of Wright shares underlying the award immediately prior to the effective time and (ii) 1.0309. The treatment of the shares and equity awards held by the directors and executive officers of the Wright is more fully described in “ The Merger Agreement—Treatment of Wright Options and Other Wright Equity-Based Awards ” beginning on page 134 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The estimated values of the shares and equity awards held by the directors and executive officers of Wright are quantified below. The values assume that the effective time occurs on March 10, 2015 (which is the latest practicable date prior to this filing), and that the directors and executive officers have not sold or acquired Wright shares or equity awards between March 10, 2015 and the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Further, the values were calculated using a price per share of $31.53, the average closing price of a Wright share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the signing of the merger agreement on October 27, 2014. The value of each unvested option is calculated as the difference between (a) $31.53 and (b) its exercise price.

For named executive officers, the estimated value of the Wright shares and equity awards currently owned or vested or scheduled to vest before the assumed effective time is, for each of the following individuals: Mr. Palmisano ($15.5 million), Mr. Berry ($3.3 million), Mr. Girin ($2.4 million), Mr. Cordell ($254,289), and Mr. Senner ($130,768); and for the estimated value in respect of equity awards that are expected to vest and be converted into Tornier ordinary shares at the effective time, see “ —Quantification of Payments to Wright’s Named Executive Officers ” below. For executive officers who are not named executive officers, the estimated aggregate value of Wright shares and all equity awards (including those that will vest in connection with the merger) owned as of the assumed effective time is approximately $10.9 million; and the estimated aggregate value of unvested equity awards that are expected to vest in connection with the merger is approximately $3.8 million.

Change in Control Arrangements

Each of Wright’s executive officers is party to either an employment or separation pay agreement that provides for certain compensation and benefits in the event that his or her employment is terminated by Wright without “cause” or by the executive for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in the applicable agreement) (each, a “qualifying termination”), within a certain period of time following the merger (which constitutes a “change in control” under the agreements).

For a description of these individual agreements, and for an estimate of the value of the payments and benefits described above that would be payable to each of Wright’s named executive officers, see “ —Quantification of Payments to Wright’s Named Executive Officers ” below. The estimated aggregate value of the cash payments, the health and welfare benefits continuation and other payments described above that would be payable to all of Wright’s executive officers who are not named executive officers if the effective time occurs on March 10, 2015 and all such executive officers experience a qualifying termination during the periods described above is approximately $11.8 million.

120

Indemnification and Insurance

Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Wright’s current and former directors and executive officers will be entitled to certain ongoing indemnification and coverage for six years after the effective time. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Wright’s current and former directors and executive officers will be entitled to gross-up payments from the combined company if such person is required to pay an excise tax under Section 4985 of the Code, which Wright expects would occur only upon a change in tax law or regulations. See “ The Merger Agreement—Indemnification of Officers and Directors ” beginning on page 146 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Wright Arrangements

It is possible that, prior to the effective time, some or all of Wright’s executive officers may discuss or enter into agreements, arrangements or understandings with Wright and Tornier or any of their respective affiliates regarding their continuing employment with the combined company or one or more of its affiliates. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Mr. Palmisano, Wright’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, will become the President and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company. Other than with respect to Mr. Palmisano, as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, such discussions have not occurred and such agreements have not been entered into. No framework regarding compensation at the combined company has been agreed upon beyond what is provided for in the merger agreement (see “ The Merger Agreement— Employee and Labor Matters ” beginning on page 145 of this joint proxy statement/prospectus for a summary of Tornier’s obligations to Wright employees during the specified periods following the effective time).

Quantification of Payments to Wright’s Named Executive Officers

The information set forth in the table below is intended to comply with Item 402(t) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, which requires disclosure of information about certain compensation that may be provided to Wright’s named executive officers that is based on or otherwise relates to the merger. The amounts included in the table are estimates based on assumptions that may or may not prove accurate on the relevant date, March 10, 2015, and the other assumptions described in the footnotes to the table below. The amounts shown in the table (other than the amounts shown in the “Equity” column) will be paid only if the named executive officer’s employment experiences a qualifying termination, which is not currently expected with respect to any of Wright’s named executive officers. The amounts included in the table below reflect the aggregate amounts that may be payable to each of Wright’s named executive officers under his employment agreement or separation pay agreement, as applicable, his equity incentive award agreements and the merger agreement. Wright has not entered into any new agreement or arrangement to provide additional compensation. Although equity compensation previously granted to the named executive officers will vest by reason of the consummation of the merger, no additional payments to Wright’s named executive officers are expected to be made in connection with the merger.

All amounts set forth in this table are based on the following assumptions: the closing price of a Wright share is equal to $31.53, which was the average closing price of a Wright share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the public announcement of the merger on October 27, 2014; the merger had been consummated on March 10, 2015; the named executive officer’s employment or service relationship had been terminated on March 10, 2015; and that no amount is payable by Wright to its named executive officers in respect of any excise tax under Section 4985 of the Code. For additional discussion about the excise tax under Section 4985 of the Code and amounts potentially payable by the Company with respect thereto, please see “ The Merger Agreement—Indemnification of Officers and Directors .”

(2)

Amounts shown in the table above reflect (i) the amount of severance that may become payable to each of Messrs. Palmisano, Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner by Wright in connection with the merger (assuming in all cases that a qualifying termination takes place on March 10, 2015), (ii) in the case of each of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner, a pro-rata annual cash incentive bonus for 2015 that would have become payable by Wright had a qualifying termination occurred on March 10, 2015.

The employment agreement for Mr. Palmisano provides that he is entitled to an amount equal to 48 months base salary (which is intended to represent his salary plus target bonus for 2 years) in the event that his employment is terminated by Wright without “cause” or by Mr. Palmisano for “good reason” (each as defined in his employment agreement); provided, that if such termination occurs within 24 months following a change of control, Mr. Palmisano will be entitled to an amount equal to 72 months base salary (which is intended to represent his salary plus target bonus for 3 years). This amount would be paid to Mr. Palmisano in a lump sum on the 60 ^th day following a qualifying termination of his employment, subject to the execution of a release of claims. If this severance obligation were triggered, Mr. Palmisano would be expected to receive severance in the amount of $4,500,000.

The separation pay agreements for each of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner provide that the executive is entitled to an amount equal to the sum of (i) the executive’s annual base salary plus (ii) the executive’s annual target bonus in the event that the executive’s employment is terminated by Wright without “cause” by the executive for “good reason” (each as defined in their respective employment agreements); provided that if such termination occurs within 12 months following a change of control, such amounts will be multiplied by 200%. In each case, if the executive’s annual base salary or target bonus has been reduced during the 60-day period prior to the termination of employment, then for purposes of the separation payment calculation, the higher figure will be used. The applicable amount will be paid to the executive as follows: (x) half in a lump sum payable at or within a reasonable time following the date of a qualifying termination, subject to the execution of a release of claims; and (y) the remaining half in equal monthly installments beginning six months after the date of termination with a final installment of all remaining amounts on March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which the termination occurred. If these severance obligations were triggered, Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner would be expected to receive severance in the amount of $1,200,000, $1,750,000, $1,162,500 and $899,000, respectively.

Under his employment agreement, Mr. Palmisano is entitled to receive his target annual cash incentive bonus for the year of termination, whether or not in connection with a change of control, on the first payroll date following his termination of employment. Under their separation pay agreements, each of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner would also be entitled to receive any pro-rated target annual cash incentive bonus in the event that the executive’s employment is terminated by Wright without “cause” by the executive for “good reason” within 12 months following a change of control.

The table above assumes that (i) Mr. Palmisano would be paid a 2015 annual cash incentive bonus of $750,000, which reflects his target bonus for 2015, and (ii) Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner would each be paid a pro-rated 2015 annual cash incentive bonus of $42,534, $70,890, $38,990 and $26,371, respectively, which reflects the target amount of their expected 2015 annual cash incentive bonuses multiplied by 69/365.

(a)

The value of each Wright stock option reflected above is equal to (i) (A) $31.53, which is the average closing price of a Wright share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the merger, minus (B) the exercise price of the stock option, multiplied by (ii) the number of unvested stock options held by the executive.

As discussed in the section titled “ The Merger Agreement—Treatment of Wright Options and Other Wright Equity-Based Awards ” under the terms of the merger agreement, each outstanding option to acquire Wright shares will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions, and will be exchanged for an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such option prior to the merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement), a number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (1) the number of Wright shares subject to the option, and (2) 1.0309, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Tornier ordinary shares, at an exercise price per Tornier ordinary share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of the option to acquire Wright shares by (y) 1.0309, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

As a result, Wright’s named executive officers will receive options to acquire Tornier ordinary shares with an equivalent value to that which they held in the form of options to acquire Wright shares immediately prior to the merger, and none of Wright’s named executive officers will receive any cash payment with respect to his stock options.

(b)

The value of the restricted shares reflected above is equal to the number of such shares held by the Wright named executive officer, multiplied by $31.53, which is the average closing price of a Wright share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the merger on October 27, 2014.

123

be cancelled and converted into the right to receive 1.0309 fully paid and nonassessable Tornier ordinary shares.

As a result, Wright’s named executive officers are will receive Tornier ordinary shares with an equivalent value to the restricted shares of Wright (without discount for the restrictions that applied to such shares) they held immediately prior to the merger, and none of Wright’s named executive officers will receive any cash payment with respect to his restricted shares.

(4)	Under his employment agreement or separation pay agreement, as applicable, if any of Messrs. Palmisano, Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner experiences a qualifying termination in connection with a change in control, he will be entitled to the following:

(i) payment of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 18 months (rather than 12 months, if the qualifying termination did not occur in connection with a change in control) (in the case of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner) or 12 months (whether or not such qualifying termination occurred in connection with a change of control) (in the case of Mr. Palmisano) following a termination of employment, until such time as the executive is no longer eligible for such coverage due to acceptance of employment with another employer;

(ii) outplacement assistance for a period of 2 years (rather than 1 year, if the qualifying termination did not occur in connection with a change in control) (in the case of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner) or 1 year (whether or not such qualifying termination occurred in connection with a change of control) (in the case of Mr. Palmisano) following a termination of employment, subject in each case to termination if the executive accepts employment with another employer;

(iii) financial planning services for a period of 2 years (rather than 1 year, if the qualifying termination did not occur in connection with a change in control) (in the case of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner) or 1 year (whether or not such qualifying termination occurred in connection with a change of control) (in the case of Mr. Palmisano) following a termination of employment; and

(iv) in the case of Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner, payment to continue insurance coverage equal to 2 times the annual supplemental executive officer insurance benefit provided to the executive prior to the date of termination (rather than 1 time, if the qualifying termination did not occur in connection with a change in control).

Each of Messrs. Palmisano, Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner is also entitled to an annual physical within 12 months of a qualifying termination of employment and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses if incurred to recover benefits rightfully owed to him under his employment agreement or separation pay agreement, as applicable. The value of these benefits has not been included in the table set forth above because such amounts are not estimable.

The amount shown in the table above for Mr. Palmisano is comprised of the following payments: $12,276 for 12 months of COBRA payments; $30,000 for 12 months of outplacement services; and $5,000 for 12 months of financial planning services. The amounts shown in the table above for Messrs. Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner are comprised of the following payments: $60,000 for 24 months of outplacement services; $11,000 for 24 months of financial planning services and two times the annual supplemental executive officer insurance benefit provided to such executive prior to his date of termination. The amount shown in the table above for Messrs. Berry, Cordell and Senner also reflects $23,894, $23,641 and $23,641 for 18 months of COBRA payments, respectively. Mr. Girin waived health care benefits, and therefore the value of their respective COBRA payments is $0.

Although, the table above assumes that Messrs. Palmisano, Berry, Girin, Cordell and Senner will receive payments in respect of the benefits set forth above, as applicable, because the executives are expected to continue in employment with the combined company following the merger, these amounts are not expected to be paid.

Interests of Tornier’s Directors and Officers in the Merger

In considering the recommendation of the Tornier board of directors to Tornier shareholders to vote in favor of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger and the issuance of Tornier ordinary shares, and the other matters to be acted upon by Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, Tornier shareholders should be aware that members of the Tornier board of directors and Tornier’s officers have interests in the merger that may be different from, in addition to, the interests of Tornier shareholders generally or which may conflict with the interests of Tornier shareholders. The Tornier board of directors was aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, when it evaluated, negotiated and approved the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the merger and the issuance of Tornier ordinary shares, and in making its recommendations to the Tornier shareholders. These interests are described in more detail and quantified below.

Ownership Interests

As of May 5, 2015, the latest practicable date before the printing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, directors and executive officers of Tornier, together with their respective affiliates, were entitled to vote 12,741,789 Tornier ordinary shares, or approximately 26.0% of the Tornier ordinary shares outstanding on that date. Assuming the merger had been completed as of such date, all directors and executive officers of Tornier, together with their respective affiliates, would beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 12.5% of the outstanding ordinary shares of the combined company.

For a more complete discussion of the ownership interests of the directors and executive officers of Tornier, see “ Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners, Management and Directors of Tornier .”

Positions with the Combined Company

As described under “ —Board of Directors and Management After the Merger ,” as of the effective time of the merger:

•

The board of directors of the combined company will include David H. Mowry, Sean D. Carney, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman, all of whom are current members of the Tornier board of directors, and such directors, with the exception of Mr. Mowry, will receive cash and equity compensation for such service.

•

Mr. Mowry will be appointed Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the combined company and will receive cash and equity compensation for such service.

•

Terry Rich, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, U.S. Commercial Operations, will be appointed President, Upper Extremities, and Greg Morrison, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources and HPMS (High Performance Management System), will be appointed Senior Vice President, Human Resources of the combined company, and will receive cash and equity compensation for such service.

These management changes are subject to the approval of the board of directors of the combined company and will become effective and are conditioned upon the closing of the merger.

It is anticipated that the following executive officers of Tornier will step down from their current executive officer positions of Tornier effective and conditioned upon the closing of the merger: Shawn McCormick, Chief Financial Officer, Stéphan Epinette, Senior Vice President, International Commercial Operations, Kevin M. Klemz, Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, and Gordon Van Ummersen, Senior Vice President, Global Product Delivery. One or more of these Tornier executives may continue employment with the combined company although in a different position for a period of time after completion of the merger and/or may provide part-time consulting services to the combined company after completion of the merger and would receive cash compensation for such service.

125

Although general terms of compensation arrangements with the combined company for these Tornier executives have been discussed, no agreements reflecting such terms have been finalized as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. These matters are subject to further negotiations and discussions, as well as approval by the board of directors of the combined company, and there can be no assurance that the parties will reach agreement.

The nominees of the board of directors of Tornier will include any nominees entitled to be made by TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC and a shareholder holding approximately 21.9% of Tornier’s outstanding ordinary shares, pursuant to a securityholders’ agreement among Tornier and certain of its shareholders, including TMG. Under the director nomination provisions of this agreement, TMG has the right to designate three directors to be nominated to the Tornier board of directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, two directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 10% but less than 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and one director for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 5% but less than 10% of outstanding Tornier outstanding ordinary shares. Tornier agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the TMG designees to be elected as directors. Mr. Carney and Ms. Weatherman are the current directors of Tornier who are designees of TMG and it is anticipated that Mr. Carney and Ms. Weatherman will be the directors of the combined company who are designees of TMG. See “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6 – Appointment of Directors .”

TMG Voting and Support Agreement

In connection with the merger agreement, Wright entered into a voting and support agreement with TMG pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions therein, TMG agreed to vote its Tornier ordinary shares in favor of the merger, the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, as described in more detail under “ Voting and Support Agreement .”

Accelerated Vesting of Tornier Stock Options and Other Tornier Equity-Based Awards

The merger will constitute a “change in control” under Tornier’s prior stock option plan and current stock incentive plan under which stock options and stock grants have been granted to Tornier’s directors and executive officers. Under Tornier’s prior stock option plan and current stock incentive plan, upon a change in control of Tornier, (i) all outstanding options become immediately exercisable in full and remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms and (ii) all restrictions and vesting requirements applicable to any outstanding stock grants will be deemed satisfied; provided, however, that if any such restriction or vesting requirement relates to the satisfaction of certain performance goals, such performance goals will be deemed to be fully achieved only to the extent of the stated target.

126

The following table sets forth for each of Tornier’s directors and executive officers as of May 5, 2015 the aggregate number of Tornier ordinary shares subject to unvested stock options, all of which will become immediately exercisable in full upon completion of the merger, and unvested stock awards, for which all restrictions and vesting requirements will be deemed satisfied upon completion of the merger. All stock grants held by Tornier’s directors and executive officers as of May 5, 2015 are in the form of restricted stock units.

(1)	All option awards have a 10-year term, but may terminate earlier if the recipient’s employment or service relationship with Tornier terminates.

(2)

The value of restricted stock units that are not vested is based on a per share price of $27.72, which is equal to the average closing price of a Tornier ordinary share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the merger on October 27, 2014.

Change in Control Arrangements

Under the terms of the employment agreements that Tornier Inc., Tornier’s primary U.S. operating subsidiary, has entered into with David H. Mowry, Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Shawn T McCormick, Tornier’s Chief Financial Officer, Gordon W. Van Ummersen, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Global Product Delivery, Terry M. Rich, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, U.S. Commercial Operations, Greg Morrison, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources and HPMS, and Kevin M. Klemz, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, in the event the executive’s employment is terminated without “cause” or by the executive for “good reason” (each as defined in their respective employment agreements) within 12 months following the merger (which constitutes a “change in control” under the employment agreements), the executive will be entitled to receive accrued but unpaid salary and benefits through the date of termination, a lump sum payment equal to his base salary plus target bonus for the year of termination, health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months following termination.

Under the terms of the employment agreement between Tornier SAS, Tornier’s French operating subsidiary, and Stéphan Epinette, Tornier’s Senior Vice President, International Commercial Operations, if Mr. Epinette is terminated for reasons other than negligence or serious misconduct within 12 months following the merger (which constitutes a “change in control” under his employment agreement), he is entitled to gross monthly salary continuation and health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months following termination of employment, as well as a payment equal to Mr. Epinette’s annual target bonus and French incentive compensation scheme payment for the year of his termination. Pursuant to French law, gross monthly salary represents the average salary Mr. Epinette received during the 12-month period preceding his termination and includes the amount of

127

any annual cash incentive bonus payable to Mr. Epinette during such period pursuant to Tornier’s annual cash incentive bonus program. In addition, subject to his compliance with his noncompetition obligation, if Mr. Epinette experiences a voluntary or involuntary termination of employment for any reason, he will be entitled to monthly allowance equal to the average compensation received during his past 12 months within the company.

Quantification of Payments to Tornier’s Named Executive Officers

The following table sets forth the amounts of payments and benefits that each of Tornier’s named executive officers will receive in connection with the merger, assuming (i) the merger was completed on May 5, 2015, (ii) that each of the named executive officers experienced an involuntary termination without cause or a resignation for good reason (as such terms are defined in their respective employment agreements) under such officer’s employment agreement in connection with the change of control (which we refer to as a “qualifying termination”), and (iii) the price per share of a Tornier ordinary share is $27.72, which was the average closing price of a Tornier ordinary share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the merger on October 27, 2014. These payments and benefits are the subject of a non-binding advisory vote of Tornier shareholders, as described under “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 2—Advisory Vote on Specified Compensatory Arrangements Relating to the Merger .”

(1)

Includes the following lump sum payments equal to 12-months’ base salary: Mr. Mowry: $572,000; Mr. McCormick: $377,333; Mr. Rich: $384,482; Mr. Klemz: $345,351; and Mr. Morrison: $312,002. All such payments are “double trigger” benefits and would be paid only upon the qualifying termination of the executive officer’s employment within 12 months following completion of the merger.

(2)

Includes the following lump sum payments equal to the full target bonus of each executive for the year of the change in control: Mr. Mowry: $457,600; Mr. McCormick: $188,667; Mr. Rich: $288,362; Mr. Klemz: $138,140; and Mr. Morrison: $124,801. All such payments are “double trigger” benefits and would be paid only upon the qualifying termination of the executive officer’s employment within 12 months following completion of the merger.

(3)

Includes the following value of the automatic acceleration of the vesting of unvested stock options held by a named executive officer: Mr. Mowry: $918,715; Mr. McCormick: $424,914; Mr. Rich: $388,440; Mr. Klemz: $298,700; and Mr. Morrison: $272,616. These amounts are based on the difference between (i) the price per share of a Tornier ordinary share of $27.72, which was the average closing price of a Tornier ordinary share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the merger on October 27, 2014, and (ii) the per share exercise price of the option held by such executive as of May 5, 2015. The range of per share exercise prices of unvested stock options held by Tornier’s named executive officers included in the table is $17.28 to $21.66. The equity acceleration values are “single trigger” benefits and would be recognized immediately following completion of the merger, regardless of whether the executive experiences a qualifying termination within 12 months following completion of the merger.

(4)

Includes the following value of the automatic acceleration of the vesting of stock awards held by a named executive officer: Mr. Mowry: $1,935,965; Mr. McCormick: $1,000,359; Mr. Rich: $989,105; Mr. Klemz: $961,829; and Mr. Morrison: $908,606. These amounts are based on (i) the number of unvested stock awards held by such officer as of May 5, 2015, multiplied by (ii) the price per share of a Tornier ordinary

128

share of $27.72, which was the average closing price of a Tornier ordinary share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the first five business days following the first public announcement of the merger on October 27, 2014. The equity acceleration values are “single trigger” benefits and would be recognized immediately following completion of the merger, regardless of whether the executive experienced a qualifying termination within 12 months following completion of the merger.

(5)

Includes the value of medical, dental and vision benefit continuation for each executive and his family for 12 months following the executive’s termination of employment. All such payments are “double trigger” benefits and would be paid only upon the qualifying termination of the executive officer’s employment within 12 months following completion of the merger.

Regulatory Approvals Required

Wright and Tornier have agreed to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable applicable federal and state antitrust regulatory approvals, and any other approval required under any applicable federal or state law. Under the HSR Act, Wright and Tornier must file notifications with the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division and observe a mandatory pre-merger waiting period before completing the merger. On November 25, 2014, each of Wright and Tornier filed its notification under the HSR Act. During December 2014, Tornier voluntarily withdrew its HSR notification and then refiled. On January 28, 2015, Wright and Tornier each received a request for additional information and documentary materials, often referred to as a “second request,” from the Federal Trade Commission in connection with the merger relating to overlap in certain of Wright’s and Tornier’s lower extremity products. Issuance of the second request extends the waiting period under the HSR Act until 30 days after both parties have substantially complied with the second request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Both companies are cooperating with the FTC staff in the review of the merger. In connection with the resolution of the HSR review, Wright and Tornier currently expect to divest the Tornier Salto Talaris and Salto XT ankle replacement products and the Tornier silastic toe replacement products, which generated revenue in the United States of less than $15 million in the 12 months ended September 30, 2014 and $15.5 million in the 12 months ended December 28, 2014. Both Wright and Tornier believe that the economic effect of and the strategic rationale for the proposed merger will not materially be affected by the proposed divestiture.

Wright and Tornier have determined that no foreign regulatory approvals are required in connection with the merger. However, Wright and Tornier cannot assure you that other government agencies or private parties will not initiate actions to challenge the merger before or after it is completed. Any such challenge to the merger could result in a court order enjoining the merger or in restrictions or conditions that would have a material adverse effect on the combined company following the merger if the merger is completed. Such restrictions and conditions could include requiring the divestiture or spin-off of assets or businesses and, under the terms of the merger agreement, Wright and Tornier each agreed to divest or commit to divest rights to the extent such divestiture, individually or together with other divestitures, relates to assets that generated U.S. revenue of less than $15 million during the 12 months ended September 30, 2014, provided that Wright would control the terms of, and assets included in, any such divestiture and would use commercially reasonable efforts to contest any divestiture proposed by a governmental body.

NASDAQ Listing of Tornier Ordinary Shares

Tornier ordinary shares are currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “TRNX.” Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Tornier has filed a listing of additional shares notification form with NASDAQ to list the Tornier ordinary shares issuable in connection with the merger and has filed a company event notification form with NASDAQ to change Tornier’s company name to “Wright Medical Group N.V.” and its trading symbol to “WMGI” effective as of the completion of the merger.

129

NASDAQ Delisting and Deregistration of Wright Shares

Following the effective time of the merger, Wright shares, which currently trade on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the trading symbol “WMGI,” will be delisted from NASDAQ. In addition, following the effective time of the merger, Wright common stock will be deregistered under the Exchange Act.

The Tornier ordinary shares to be issued in connection with the merger will be freely transferable under the Securities Act, except for shares issued to any Wright shareholder who may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of the combined company at the time of the closing of the merger. Persons who may be deemed to be affiliates include Wright directors or executive officers who become directors or executive officers of the combined company after the merger as well as the principal shareholders of the combined company. This joint proxy statement/prospectus does not cover resales of Tornier ordinary shares received by any person upon the completion of the merger, and no person is authorized to make any use of this joint proxy statement/prospectus in connection with any resale.

Anticipated Accounting Treatment

Under U.S. GAAP, the merger will be accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” pursuant to which Wright will be considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. As such, Wright will allocate the total purchase consideration to Tornier’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on their relative fair values at the date of the completion of the merger. Wright’s historical results of operations will replace Tornier’s historical results of operations for all periods prior to the merger; after completion of the merger, the results of operations of both companies will be included in the combined company’s financial statements.

The combined company will account for the merger using the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. GAAP. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 “ Business Combinations ” (“ASC 805”) provides guidance for determining the accounting acquirer in a business combination when equity interests are exchanged between two entities. ASC 805 provides that in a business combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, such as the merger, the entity that issues the equity interests is generally the acquiring entity. Commonly, the acquiring entity is the larger entity. However, the facts and circumstances surrounding a business combination sometimes indicate that a smaller entity acquires a larger one. ASC 805 further provides that in identifying the acquiring entity in a combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, all pertinent facts and circumstances must be considered, including the relative voting rights of the shareholders of the constituent companies in the combined company, the composition of the board of directors and senior management of the combined company and the terms of the exchange of equity securities in the business combination, including payment of any premium.

Based on the relative voting interests of Wright and Tornier in the combined company whereby the Wright shareholders will have majority voting interest, the board of directors of the combined company will be composed of five former-Wright board members and five former-Tornier directors and the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the combined company will be the former chief executive officer and former chief financial officer of Wright, Wright is considered to be the acquirer of Tornier for accounting purposes. This means that the total purchase price will be allocated to Tornier’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on their estimated relative fair market values at the date of the completion of the merger. Final valuations of property, plant and equipment, and intangible and other assets have not yet been completed as management is still reviewing the existence, characteristics and useful lives of Tornier’s intangible assets. The completion of the valuation work could result in significantly different amortization expenses and balance sheet classifications. After completion of the merger, the results of operations of both companies will be included in the financial statements of the combined company. For further discussion of the accounting treatment, see “ Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information .”

Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights

Appraisal rights are statutory rights under Delaware law that enable shareholders who object to certain extraordinary transactions to demand that the corporation pay such shareholders the fair value of their shares instead of receiving the consideration offered to shareholders in connection with the extraordinary transaction. Appraisal rights are not available to Wright shareholders in connection with the merger or any of the other transactions described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Dutch corporate law grants a shareholder of a non-surviving entity in a merger, in certain circumstances, the right to claim monetary compensation rights (schadeloosstelling) . However, no such rights will be available to Tornier shareholders in this transaction.

Litigation Relating to the Merger

On November 25, 2014, a class action complaint was filed in theDelaware Chancery Court, by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption Paul Parshall v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al ., C.A. No. 10400-CB. An amended complaint in the action was filed on February 6, 2015. The amended complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the Wright board of directors. The amended complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The amended complaint further alleges that Wright, Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

Also on November 25, 2014, a second class action complaint was filed in the Tennessee Chancery Court, by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption Anthony Marks as Trustee for Marks Clan Super v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al. , CH-14-1721-1. An amended complaint in the action was filed on January 7, 2015. On February 23, 2015, the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the action, as pending in the Tennessee Chancery Court, without prejudice. Later on February 23, 2015, the plaintiff refiled the action in the Delaware Chancery Court under the caption Anthony Marks as Trustee for Marks Clan Super v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al. , C.A. No. 10706-CB. The complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the Wright board of directors. The complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The complaint further alleges that Wright, Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

On March 2, 2015, the Delaware Chancery Court consolidated Paul Parshall v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al ., C.A. No. 10400-CB, and Anthony Marks as Trustee for Marks Clan Super v. Wright Medical Group, Inc., et al. , C.A. No. 10706-CB, under the caption In re Wright Medical Group, Inc. Stockholders Litigation , C.A. No. 10400-CB. A motion for a preliminary injunction has been filed in the consolidated action, and the Delaware Chancery Court has set a hearing on that motion for June 9, 2015.

On November 26, 2014, a third class action complaint was filed in the Tennessee Circuit Court, by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption City of Warwick Retirement System v. Gary D. Blackford et al., CT-005015-14. An amended complaint in the action was filed on January 5, 2015. The amended complaint names as defendants Wright, Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and the members of the Wright board of directors. The amended complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the

131

Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The amended complaint further alleges that Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

On March 24, 2015, a fifth class action complaint was filed in the Delaware Chancery Court, by a purported shareholder of Wright under the caption Michael Prince v. Robert J. Palmisano, et al. , C.A. No. 10829-CB. The complaint asserts various causes of action, including, among other things, that the members of the Wright board of directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to the Wright shareholders in connection with entering into the merger agreement, approving the merger, and causing Wright to issue a preliminary Form S-4 that allegedly fails to disclose material information about the merger. The complaint further alleges that Wright, Tornier, Holdco and Merger Sub aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the Wright board of directors. The plaintiff is seeking, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining or rescinding the merger and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

None of the lawsuits has formally specified an amount of alleged damages. As a result, Wright and Tornier are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, arising from the lawsuits. If any injunctive relief sought in these lawsuits were to be granted, it could delay or prohibit the Wright special meeting or Tornier extraordinary general meeting or the closing of the merger. Wright and Tornier believe that these lawsuits are without merit and intend to contest them vigorously.

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following describes the material provisions of the merger agreement, which is included as Annex A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus and is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. The summary of the material provisions of the merger agreement below and elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus is qualified in its entirety by reference to the merger agreement. This summary does not purport to be complete and may not contain all of the information about the merger agreement that is important to you. Tornier and Wright encourage you to read carefully the merger agreement in its entirety before making any decisions regarding the merger as it is the legal document governing the merger.

The merger agreement and this summary of its terms have been included to provide you with information regarding the terms of the merger agreement. Factual disclosures about Tornier or Wright contained in this joint proxy statement/prospectus or Tornier’s or Wright’s public reports filed with the SEC may supplement, update, or modify the factual disclosures about Tornier or Wright contained in the merger agreement and described in the summary. The representations, warranties, and covenants made in the merger agreement by Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and Wright are qualified and subject to important limitations agreed to by Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub, and Wright in connection with negotiating the terms of the merger agreement. In particular, in your review of the representations and warranties contained in the merger agreement and described in this summary, it is important to bear in mind that the representations and warranties were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the merger agreement and were negotiated with the principal purpose of allocating risk between the parties to the merger agreement, rather than establishing matters as facts. The representations and warranties may also be subject to a contractual standard of materiality that may be different from that generally relevant to shareholders or applicable to reports and documents filed with the SEC and in some cases are qualified by confidential disclosures that were made by each party to the other, which disclosures are not reflected in the merger agreement or otherwise publicly disclosed. The representations and warranties in the merger agreement will not survive the completion of the merger. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may have changed since the date of the merger agreement, and subsequent developments or new information qualifying a representation or warranty may have been included or incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. For the foregoing reasons, the representations, warranties, and covenants, and any descriptions of those provisions, should not be read alone but instead should be read together with the information provided elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” beginning on page 300.

Structure of the Merger

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, at the effective time of the merger, Merger Sub, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier and a party to the merger agreement, will merge with and into Wright, and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease. Wright will survive the merger as an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary (the “surviving corporation”) of Tornier.

Closing and Effective Time of the Merger

The completion of the merger (the “closing”) will occur at a date and time to be specified jointly by Tornier and Wright, which shall be no later than three business days after the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waiver of the conditions to the closing of the merger (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the closing, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions). For further discussion of conditions to the closing, see “— Conditions to Completion of the Merger ” below.

The merger will become effective at such time as a certificate of merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at any later date or time mutually agreed to in writing by Tornier and Wright and specified in the certificate of merger in accordance with the DGCL. We refer to that time as the “effective time.”

133

Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders

At the effective time, each outstanding Wright share (other than shares held by Tornier, Merger Sub, any wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier or Wright, or by Wright as treasury shares (the “excluded shares”), which will be canceled and retired and cease to exist) will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 fully paid and nonassessable Tornier ordinary shares. We refer to the ratio of 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares for each Wright share as the “exchange ratio.”

In the event that either Tornier or Wright changes the number of its shares issued and outstanding prior to the effective time as a result of a reclassification, stock split, stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, subdivision, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, the exchange ratio would be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

Treatment of Wright Options and Other Wright Equity-Based Awards

Immediately prior to the effective time, each option to purchase Wright shares that is then outstanding will be (or, to the extent it is unvested, will automatically become) fully vested and be exchanged for an option to acquire Tornier ordinary shares on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the Wright option prior to the merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the merger), except that (A) the number of Tornier ordinary shares subject to the new option will be equal to the product of (i) the number of Wright shares subject to the existing option and (ii) 1.0309 (rounding fractional shares down to the nearest whole share) and (B) the exercise price per share under the new option will be equal to (i) the exercise price per share of the Wright option divided by (ii) 1.0309 (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). To the extent that Section 409A or 421(a) of the Internal Revenue Code apply to any such Wright option, this adjustment will be subject to such modifications, if any, as are required to cause the substitution of Tornier options for Wright options to be made in a manner consistent with Section 409A or 421(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable.

Immediately prior to the effective time, each share of Wright restricted stock that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 ordinary shares of Tornier, as described under “—Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders .”

Immediately prior to the effective time, each Wright restricted stock unit award that is then outstanding will become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and, at the effective time, will be cancelled, extinguished, and converted into a right to receive a number of Tornier ordinary shares equal to the product of (A) the total number of Wright shares underlying the award immediately prior to the effective time and (B) 1.0309. These Wright restricted stock units will be treated as Wright shares for purposes of, and such Tornier ordinary shares received in conversion for such units will be delivered in accordance with, the provisions

134

described under “—Escrow and Exchange Agent .” At the effective time, all Wright restricted stock units will no longer be outstanding and will automatically cease to exist, and each holder of restricted stock units will cease to have any rights with respect to them, except the right to receive the consideration described above.

Escrow and Exchange Agent

Prior to the effective time, Tornier and Wright will mutually appoint an escrow and exchange agent (the “exchange agent”) for the payment and delivery of the merger consideration.

As soon as possible on the closing date after the effective time, for the indirect benefit of the former Wright shareholders and to facilitate the payment of the merger consideration to them, Holdco will issue to the exchange agent a promissory note receivable on Holdco (the terms and conditions for which will be mutually agreed on by the parties prior to the closing date) and all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Holdco. The note and shares will have an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of the outstanding Wright shares immediately prior to the effective time.

In accordance with provisions of Section 2:94b of the Dutch Civil Code, the exchange agent will contribute the note and shares it received from Holdco to the combined company as a contribution in kind to pay up the Tornier ordinary shares to be issued as merger consideration, and, at the effective time, the combined company will issue and deliver to the exchange agent, for the account and benefit of the former Wright shareholders, the maximum number of the combined company ordinary shares that have become issuable as merger consideration pursuant to the exchange described under “— Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders .”

After the effective time, the combined company will cause the exchange agent to send a letter of transmittal to each record holder of Wright share certificates as of the effective time specifying, among other things, that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to any certificates representing Wright shares will pass, only upon proper delivery of such certificates to the exchange agent. The letter of transmittal will also include instructions explaining the procedure for surrendering Wright share certificates in exchange for Tornier ordinary shares. Any uncertificated Wright shares in book-entry form will be deemed surrendered to the exchange agent at the effective time.

After the effective time, Wright shares will no longer be outstanding, will be automatically canceled, and will cease to exist, and each certificate, if any, that previously represented Wright shares will represent only the right to receive the merger consideration as described above, any cash in lieu of fractional ordinary shares of the combined company, and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders of the certificates become entitled upon surrender of such certificates. With respect to such combined company ordinary shares deliverable upon the surrender of Wright share certificates, until holders of such Wright share certificates have surrendered such share certificates to the exchange agent for exchange, those holders will not receive dividends or distributions with respect to such Tornier ordinary shares with a record date after the effective time.

As promptly as practicable following the effective time, the exchange agent will determine the excess of the number of whole combined company ordinary shares issued and delivered to the exchange agent over the aggregate number of whole combined company ordinary shares to be distributed to former holders of Wright shares (determined before taking into account any combined company ordinary shares withheld under the provision described in “— Withholding ”). Following the effective time, the exchange agent will, on behalf of the former Wright shareholders, sell the excess shares at then prevailing prices on NASDAQ, through one or more member firms of NASDAQ, and in round lots to the extent practicable. The exchange agent will use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the sale of such excess shares as promptly following the effective time as is practicable, consistent with obtaining the best execution of such sales in light of prevailing market conditions. Until the net proceeds of the sale or sales have been distributed to the former Wright shareholders, the exchange agent will hold such proceeds in trust. Tornier will pay all commissions, transfer taxes, and other out-of-pocket transaction costs. The exchange agent will determine the portion of the proceeds from the sale of excess shares held in the trust to which each former Wright shareholder is entitled, if any, by multiplying (i) the

135

amount of the aggregate net proceeds in the trust by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such former Wright shareholder is entitled (after taking into account all Wright shares held as of immediately prior to the effective time by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all former Wright shareholders are entitled. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid with respect to any fractional share interest, the exchange agent will make that amount available to the former Wright shareholders.

Any portion of the consideration deposited with the exchange agent that has not been distributed to former holders of Wright shares as of the date one year after the closing date will be delivered to the combined company on demand, and any holders of Wright share certificates who have not yet surrendered their certificates, as well as any holders of uncertificated Wright shares who have not yet cashed any check payable to them, will thereafter look only to the combined company for satisfaction of their claims for combined company ordinary shares, cash in lieu of fractional combined company ordinary shares, and any dividends or distributions with respect to Tornier ordinary shares, subject to applicable abandoned property law, escheat law, or similar law.

Neither the combined company, Holdco, nor the surviving corporation will be liable to any current or former Wright shareholder or to any other person with respect to any combined company ordinary shares (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, properly delivered to any public official in compliance with any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law, or similar law. If any Wright share certificate has not been surrendered prior to five years after the closing date (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any combined company ordinary shares or any dividends or other distributions payable to the holder of such Wright share certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any governmental body), any combined company ordinary shares issuable upon the surrender of, or any dividends or other distributions in respect of, such Wright share certificate will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of combined company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon surrender of certificates or uncertificated shares representing Wright shares.

At the effective time, each certificate formerly representing any Wright share (other than the excluded shares) and each uncertificated Wright share formerly representing a Wright share (other than the excluded shares) will cease to be outstanding and (other than the excluded shares) will represent only the right to receive combined company ordinary shares (and cash in lieu of any fractional combined company ordinary shares) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled, and all holders of Wright share certificates or uncertificated shares will cease to have any rights as shareholders of Wright. Wright’s stock transfer books will be closed with respect to all outstanding Wright shares, and no further transfer of any such Wright shares will be made on such stock transfer books after the effective time.

In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights will be available to Wright shareholders in connection with the merger.

Treatment of Wright Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Prior to the effective time, Wright will take all actions necessary or desirable to:

•

provide that no offering period will commence under the Wright employee stock purchase plan (the “Wright ESPP”) following the date of the merger agreement;

•

provide that the offering period in effect on the date of the merger agreement under the Wright ESPP will terminate on December 31, 2014; and

•

terminate the Wright ESPP as of immediately prior to the effective time.

136

Any Wright shares acquired after the date of the merger agreement under the Wright ESPP will be treated as outstanding Wright shares for purposes of the exchange described under “— Merger Consideration to Wright Shareholders .” The Wright board of directors determined that following the merger there will not be restrictions on the dispositions of ordinary shares of the combined company that will be exchanged for Wright shares acquired under the Wright ESPP.

Withholding

Each of Wright, Tornier, Merger Sub, and the surviving corporation will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts payable under the merger agreement any amounts that it determines, in its sole discretion, are required to be deducted and withheld under the Internal Revenue Code or any other applicable law, and the exchange agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold to the extent it is entitled as set forth in the general instructions in the letter of transmittal. Amounts so withheld will be timely paid over to the appropriate governmental body and treated as having been paid to the person in respect of whom such withholding was required.

No Fractional Shares

Tornier will not issue fractional Tornier ordinary shares or certificates for fractional Tornier ordinary shares in connection with the merger, no dividends or distributions of Tornier will relate to fractional share interests, and fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights as a Tornier shareholder. Each Wright shareholder that otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Tornier ordinary share will receive, in lieu thereof and upon surrender of such Wright share certificate or uncertificated share, an amount in cash described under “— Escrow and Exchange Agent .”

Alternative Structures

The merger agreement provides that, in the event of a change in tax law, the parties will reasonably cooperate in the consideration and implementation of alternative structures to effect the business combination contemplated by the merger agreement, as long as any such alternative structure does not cause any condition described under “— Conditions to Completion of the Merger ” to not be capable of being, or not reasonably likely to be, satisfied on or before 5:00 p.m., New York time, on September 30, 2015.

Governance of Combined Company after the Merger

The merger agreement contains certain provisions relating to the governance of the combined company following completion of the merger, which reflect the merger of equals structure of the proposed business combination. At the effective time, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Wright will be amended and restated in their entirety to read as the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the effective time, except that all references therein to “Trooper Merger Sub Inc.” will be deemed to be references to the surviving corporation, until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable law. In connection with the merger, Tornier’s company name will be changed to “Wright Medical Group N.V.” Following the merger, ordinary shares of the combined company will continue to be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, but will trade under the trading symbol “WMGI.”

From and after the effective time, Robert J. Palmisano will be the Chief Executive Officer of, and David H. Mowry will be the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of, Wright Medical Group N.V.

The Tornier board of directors will take all necessary corporate action, to the extent within its power and authority, to cause the following individuals to be nominated to the Wright Medical Group N.V. board of directors as of the effective time and subject to such individuals’ ability and willingness to serve:

•

five directors to be nominated by the Wright board of directors, one of whom will be Robert J. Palmisano and

137

•

five directors to be nominated by the Tornier board of directors, one of whom will be David H. Mowry and one of whom will be the non-executive chairman of the Tornier board of directors, with any nominees by rights held by TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A. or any of its affiliates pursuant to the securityholders’ agreement between Tornier and the Tornier shareholders signatory thereto, dated July 18, 2006, as amended, to be included in the five directors nominated by the Tornier board of directors.

In the event that any of these nominees to the Wright Medical Group N.V. board of directors becomes unable or unwilling to serve as of the effective time, a replacement for such nominee will be determined according to these procedures.

Material Adverse Effect

Several of the representations, warranties, covenants, closing conditions, and termination provisions contained in the merger agreement refer to the concept of a “material adverse effect.”

For purposes of the merger agreement, a “material adverse effect” means any material adverse change, effect, event, circumstance, occurrence, state of facts, or development with respect to a party and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, other than any change, effect, event, circumstance, occurrence, state of facts, or development related to or resulting from:

•

general business or economic conditions affecting the industry in which such party operates, to the extent such change or effect does not disproportionately affect such party relative to other industry participants;

•

any natural disaster or national or international political or social conditions, including the engagement by the United States in hostilities or the escalation thereof, whether or not pursuant to the declaration of a national emergency or war, or the occurrence or the escalation of any military or terrorist attack upon the United States or any of its territories, possessions, or diplomatic or consular offices or upon any military installation, equipment, or personnel of the United States, to the extent such change or effect does not disproportionately affect such party relative to other industry participants;

•

financial, banking, or securities markets (including any disruption thereof and any decline in the price of any security or any market index), to the extent such change or effect does not disproportionately affect such party relative to other industry participants;

•

changes in GAAP;

•

changes in laws, rules, regulations, orders, or other binding directives issued by any governmental body;

•

the taking of any action explicitly contemplated by the merger agreement or the other agreements contemplated thereby;

•

the announcement of the merger agreement; and

•

any adverse change in or effect on the business of the party that is cured by or on behalf of the party before the earlier of the closing date and the date on which the merger agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.

•

the due organization, valid existence, good standing, qualification to do business, corporate power, and authority of the party and its subsidiaries;

The representations, warranties and covenants made in the merger agreement by Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and Wright are qualified and subject to important limitations agreed to by Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and Wright in connection with negotiating the terms of the merger agreement. In your review of the representations and warranties contained in the merger agreement and described in this summary, it is important to consider these limitations as well as the purpose of the representations and warranties, which are described in more detail in the introductory paragraphs to this section.

Covenants; Conduct of Business Prior to Merger

Each of Tornier and Wright agreed to certain covenants in the merger agreement restricting the conduct of its business between the date of the merger agreement and the earlier of the effective time or termination of the merger agreement. In general, without the written consent of the other party, or except as otherwise required by applicable law or expressly permitted by the merger agreement or disclosed to the other party pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each of Tornier, Wright and its respective subsidiaries agreed to conduct its business and operations, taken as a whole, in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

In addition, each of Tornier and Wright agreed to specific restrictions relating to the conduct of its and its subsidiaries’ business between the date of the merger agreement and the effective time (except, in each case, with the written consent of the other party or as otherwise required by applicable law or expressly permitted by the merger agreement or disclosed to the other party pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement). Each of Tornier, Wright and its respective subsidiaries agreed not to:

•

No Solicitation; Board Recommendations

Except as described below, each of Tornier and Wright agreed that, from the date of the merger agreement until the closing or, if earlier, the termination of the merger agreement in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, neither it nor any of its subsidiaries will, directly or indirectly:

•

initiate, seek or solicit or knowingly encourage or facilitate or take any other action that is reasonably expected to promote, directly or indirectly, any inquiries with respect to, or the making or submission of, any proposal that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an acquisition proposal with respect to itself;

•

participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, or disclose any non-public information or data relating to itself or any of its subsidiaries or afford access to the properties, books or records of itself or any of its subsidiaries, to any person that has made an acquisition proposal with respect to it; or

•

enter into any agreement, including any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement, with respect to an acquisition proposal with respect to itself.

Except as described below under “— Change of Recommendation ,” each of Tornier and Wright also agreed that, prior to the closing, neither its board of directors nor any committee thereof will, directly or indirectly:

•

withhold, withdraw (or amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to the other party or, in the case of such an action by Wright, to Holdco or Merger Sub), or publicly propose to withdraw (or amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to the other party or, in the case of such an action by Wright, to Holdco or Merger Sub), the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by its board of directors, or any of its committees, of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement;

•

propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve any acquisition proposal with respect to itself; or

•

fail to reaffirm or re-publish its recommendation within five business days of being requested by the other party to do so.

142

Any of the actions described in the immediately preceding paragraph are referred to in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as an “adverse recommendation change.” A change of a recommendation to “neutral” is deemed an adverse recommendation change under the merger agreement.

For purposes of the merger agreement, “acquisition proposal,” when used with respect to Tornier or Wright, means any proposal, offer or inquiry, whether or not in writing, for any transaction or series of transactions involving the (i) direct or indirect acquisition or purchase of a business or assets that constitutes 20% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or assets (based on the fair market value thereof) of such party and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (ii) direct or indirect acquisition or purchase of 20% or more of any class of equity securities or capital stock of such party or any of its subsidiaries whose business constitutes 20% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or assets of such party and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; or (iii) merger, consolidation, restructuring, transfer of assets or other business combination, sale of shares of capital stock, tender offer, share exchange, exchange offer, recapitalization, stock repurchase program or other similar transaction that, if consummated, would result in any person or persons beneficially owning 20% or more of any class of equity securities of such party or any of its subsidiaries whose business constitutes 20% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or assets of such party and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, other than the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement.

Nothing contained in the provisions described in this section will prohibit either party or its board of directors from taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position with respect to an acquisition proposal with respect to itself pursuant to Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any similar disclosure, if its board of directors has reasonably determined in good faith that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to be a breach of its fiduciary duties to its shareholders.

Prior to obtaining the approval of its shareholders, each of Tornier and Wright may participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, or disclose any non-public information or data relating to itself or any of its subsidiaries or afford access to the properties, books or records of itself or any of its subsidiaries to, any person that has made an acquisition proposal with respect to it if (i) it receives a written acquisition proposal with respect to itself from such third party (and such acquisition proposal was not initiated, sought, solicited, knowingly encouraged, or facilitated in violation of the merger agreement) and (ii) such proposal constitutes, or its board of directors determines in good faith that such proposal is reasonably expected to lead to, a superior proposal with respect to it. Each of Tornier and Wright, as applicable, may deliver non-public information to such third party only pursuant to a confidentiality agreement containing terms no less favorable to the party delivering the non-public information, with respect to confidentiality, than the terms of the confidentiality agreement between the parties to the merger agreement, dated September 22, 2014, and only if such party sends a copy of such agreement to the other party to the merger agreement promptly following its execution.

From and after the date of the merger agreement, each of Tornier and Wright will, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, advise the other party to the merger agreement in writing of any request for information or any acquisition proposal with respect to itself received from any person, or any inquiry, discussions, or negotiations with respect to any acquisition proposal with respect to itself, and the terms and conditions of such request, acquisition proposal, inquiry, discussions or negotiations, and it will promptly provide to the other party copies of any written materials received by it in connection with any of the foregoing and the identity of the person or group making any such request, acquisition proposal, or inquiry or with whom any discussions or negotiations are taking place. Each of Tornier and Wright agreed that it will simultaneously provide to the other any non-public information concerning itself or its subsidiaries provided to any other person or group in connection with any acquisition proposal that was not previously provided to the other. Each of Tornier and Wright will keep the other fully informed of the status of any acquisition proposals (including the identity of the parties and price involved and any changes to any material terms and conditions thereof). Each of Tornier and Wright agreed not to release any third party from, or waive any provisions of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it is a party or fail to enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any such standstill or similar agreement to which it is a party.

143

For purposes of the merger agreement, “superior proposal” means, with respect to a party to the merger agreement, any written acquisition proposal with respect to such party made by a third party to acquire, directly or indirectly, pursuant to a tender offer, exchange offer, merger, share exchange, consolidation or other business combination (i) 50% or more of the assets of such party and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) 50% or more of the equity securities of such party, in each case on terms that a majority of the board of directors of such party determines in good faith (after consultation with such party’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel and taking into account all financial, legal and regulatory terms and conditions of the acquisition proposal and the merger agreement, including any alternative transaction (including any modifications to the terms of the merger agreement) proposed by any other party in response to such superior proposal, including any conditions to and expected timing of consummation, and any risks of non-consummation, of such acquisition proposal) to be more favorable to such party and its shareholders (in their capacity as shareholders) as compared to the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and to any alternative transaction (including any modifications to the terms of the merger agreement) proposed by any other party to the agreement.

Change of Recommendation

Each of the boards of directors of Tornier and Wright, at any time prior to obtaining the approval of the respective party’s shareholders, in response to a superior proposal with respect to that party, which has not been withdrawn and did not result from a breach of the provisions described under “ —No Solicitation; Board Recommendations ” or the provisions described under “— Shareholders’ Meetings ” may make an adverse recommendation change. Unless, however, the party’s shareholders’ meeting is scheduled to occur within the next ten business days, the board of directors will not be entitled to make an adverse recommendation change in response to a superior proposal with respect to that party:

•

until five business days after such party provides written notice to the other party advising it that the party’s board of directors has received a superior proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such superior proposal, identifying the person or group making such superior proposal, and including copies of all documents pertaining to such superior proposal;

•

if, during such five business day period, the other party irrevocably proposes any alternative transaction (including any modifications to the terms of the merger agreement), unless the board of directors determines in good faith, after good faith negotiations between the parties (if such negotiations are requested by the party being notified of the superior proposal) during such five business day period (after and taking into account all financial, legal and regulatory terms and conditions of such alternative transaction proposal and expected timing of consummation and the relative risks of non-consummation of the alternative transaction proposal and the superior proposal) that such alternative transaction proposal is not at least as favorable to the party and its shareholders as the superior proposal; and

•

unless the party’s board of directors determines that the failure to make an adverse recommendation change would be a breach of its fiduciary obligations.

At any time prior to obtaining the approval of the shareholders of Tornier or Wright, respectively, in connection with any intervening event, as described in the following paragraph, each of the boards of directors of Tornier and Wright may make an adverse recommendation change, after the board of directors (i) determines in good faith that the failure to make such an adverse recommendation change would be a breach of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Tornier or Wright, respectively, (ii) determines in good faith that the reasons for making such adverse recommendation change are independent of and unrelated to any pending acquisition proposal with respect to its company, and (iii) provides written notice to the other party to the merger agreement, advising it that the board of directors is contemplating making an adverse recommendation change and specifying the material facts and information constituting the basis for such contemplated determination. However, unless the party’s shareholders’ meeting is scheduled to occur within the next five business days, (i) the board of directors may not make such an adverse recommendation change until the fifth business day after receipt by the other party of a notice of change from the board’s company, and (ii) during such five business day

144

period, at the request of the other party, the board’s company will negotiate in good faith with respect to any changes or modifications to the merger agreement that would allow the board of directors not to make such adverse recommendation change, consistent with its fiduciary duties.

For purposes of the merger agreement “intervening event” means any material event or development or material change in circumstances first occurring, arising or coming to the attention of a party’s board of directors after the date of the merger agreement to the extent that such event, development or change in circumstances (i) was neither known by the party or any of its respective representatives nor reasonably foreseen by such party as of or prior to the date of the date of the merger agreement and (ii) does not relate to an acquisition proposal, except that in no event will the changes in the market price or trading volume of a party’s shares or the fact that a party meets or exceeds internal or published projections, forecasts or revenue or earnings predictions for any period be an intervening event (however, the underlying causes of such change or fact will not be excluded).

Shareholders’ Meetings

The merger agreement requires each of Tornier and Wright, as promptly as practicable following effectiveness of the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, to duly give notice of, convene, and hold a meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of seeking shareholder approval of the merger agreement. If the party’s board of directors has not made an adverse recommendation change, the party will recommend that its shareholders approve the merger agreement and will use commercially reasonably efforts to solicit proxies in favor of the adoption of the merger agreement.

Regulatory Approvals; Additional Agreements

Each of Tornier and Wright agreed to (i) file, within 20 business days of the date of the merger agreement, its respective filings under the HSR Act with respect to the merger and (ii) use commercially reasonable best efforts to file all other documents required to be filed pursuant to any merger notification or control laws.

Each of Tornier and Wright has also agreed to provide the other party with information required to make the filings described in the preceding paragraph and to keep the other party apprised of the status of any communications with any governmental body with respect to the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. Each party has also agreed to provide the other party with copies of all correspondence, filings and communications between such party and any governmental body with respect to the merger agreement.

Each of the parties agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to, and in accordance with, applicable law) to take promptly, or cause to be taken promptly, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties to the merger agreement in doing, all things necessary, proper, or advisable under applicable laws to carry out the intent and purposes of the merger agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. However, (i) neither party, by itself or on behalf of any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, may, without the prior written consent of the other party, divest or agree to divest any rights to the extent such divestiture, individually or together with other divestitures, involves assets that generated U.S. revenue in excess of $15 million during the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, and (ii) the parties, on behalf of themselves or on behalf of any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, agreed to divest or commit to divest rights to the extent such divestiture, individually or together with other divestitures, relates to assets that generated U.S. revenue less than $15 million during the twelve months ended September 30, 2014. The parties agreed that Wright will control the terms of, and assets included in, any such divestiture, provided that Wright will use commercially reasonable efforts to contest any divestiture proposed by a governmental body.

Employee and Labor Matters

The parties agreed that after the effective time, with respect to individuals who are employees of Tornier and Wright and their subsidiaries after the effective time who are not represented by a union or labor organization with respect to the terms and conditions of their employment nor employed pursuant to the terms of

145

a collective bargaining agreement, the compensation and benefit programs of Tornier and Wright, in each of the markets in which they operate, (i) will be competitive with those provided generally in their industry, both with respect to the type and variety of programs and the level of benefits afforded and (ii) will treat similarly situated Tornier and Wright employees on a substantially comparable basis. However, nothing in the merger agreement will prevent the termination of employment of any employee or the amendment or termination of any particular Wright or Tornier employee benefit plan, to the extent permitted by its terms as in effect immediately before the effective time.

With respect to employee benefit plans of Tornier and its subsidiaries providing benefits to any Tornier or former Wright employee after the effective time (the “new plans”), for all purposes (including purposes of vesting, benefits eligibility, and level of benefits), each employee of Tornier and Wright and their subsidiaries will be credited with his or her years of service with the applicable company before the effective time, to the same extent as such employee was entitled, before the effective time, to credit for such service under any Tornier or Wright employee benefit plan, as applicable (except that no credit will be given to the extent that the application of such credit would result in the duplication of benefits or to the extent that Wright and Tornier employees are equally affected). Tornier also will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide that (i) each employee is immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all new plans to the extent coverage under such new plan replaces coverage under a comparable Wright or Tornier employee benefit plan in which the employee participated immediately before the effective time and (ii) for purposes of each new plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, and/or vision benefits to any employee and his or her dependents, pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of the new plan are waived for them and any eligible expenses incurred by them for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to them for the applicable plan year are taken into account as if the amounts had been paid in accordance with the new plan.

Tornier and Wright will take all actions necessary or desirable to cause (i) each Tornier option that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time to become fully vested and exercisable at the effective time and to remain exercisable for the remainder of its term and (ii) each Tornier restricted stock unit that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time to become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions at the effective time.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The merger agreement provides that, from and after the effective time, Tornier and the surviving corporation will indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and provide advancement of expenses to, Wright’s present and former officers, employees, directors and fiduciaries under a Wright employee benefit plan against all losses, fines, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities or judgments that are paid in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or pertaining to the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of Wright or a member of the board of directors, officer, employee or fiduciary of any of its subsidiaries or a fiduciary under any Wright employee benefit plan, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the effective time (including acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of the merger agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement), to the fullest extent provided or permitted under applicable law or Wright’s organizational documents.

In addition, the surviving corporation will, in its sole discretion, either (i) continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six years from and after the effective time, for the persons who were covered by Wright’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance as of the date of the merger agreement, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance with recognized insurance companies and with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in Wright’s existing policies as of the date of the merger agreement, or, if such insurance is unavailable, the best available directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance from a recognized insurance company

146

with such terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage, or (ii) obtain and fully pay for, for those persons, “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of at least six years from and after the effective time with recognized insurance companies with such terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage.

Further, if, after the effective time, any excise tax is payable pursuant to Section 4985 of the Code by Wright’s present and former officers, employees, directors or fiduciaries under a Wright employee benefit plan, Tornier will, or will cause the surviving corporation to, pay to each such individual, by no later than the time such excise tax is required to be paid by such individual or withheld by Tornier or its subsidiary, an amount equal to the sum of the excise tax payable by such individual, plus the amount necessary to put the individual in the same after-tax position (taking into account any applicable taxes, including taxes payable upon such payment) that such individual would have been in if such individual had not incurred such excise tax.

Where applicable, Section 4985 of the Code imposes an excise tax on the officers and directors of certain “expatriated corporations” (as described below) who are subject to the reporting requirements of section 16(a) of the Exchange Act. The tax under Section 4985 of the Code amounts to 15 percent of the value of a covered officer’s or director’s specified stock compensation (including nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units) that is held during the period beginning six months before and ending six months after the close of a transaction in which a U.S. corporation becomes an expatriated corporation, subject to certain exceptions. Payments made by an expatriated corporation to the covered officers and directors in respect of the tax imposed by Section 4985 of the Code are also subject to the tax under Section 4985 of the Code and are non-deductible by the expatriated corporation.

In order for a U.S. corporation to become an “expatriated corporation”, the shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation must hold at least 60%, by either vote or value, of the shares of the non-U.S. acquiring corporation by reason of its holdings of shares in the U.S. corporation as of immediately prior to the transaction, and certain other conditions must be met. Following the merger, the Wright shareholders will hold less than 60% of the vote and value of the combined company ordinary shares by reason of holding Wright shares. As a result, Wright and its U.S. affiliates do not expect that Section 4985 of the Code will apply in respect of the merger and does not anticipate paying any amount to its directors or officers in respect of the excise tax under Section 4985 of the Code.

Other Covenants and Agreements

The merger agreement contains certain other covenants, including covenants relating to cooperation in the preparation of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, other filings to be made with the SEC and other governmental filings, obtaining consents, access to information, and performing Tornier’s and Wright’s respective obligations regarding public announcements. Tornier and Wright have further agreed to the following additional covenants and agreements in the merger agreement, among others:

•

147

the other party’s board of directors or any committee thereof (i) makes an adverse recommendation change or (ii) publicly proposes to make an adverse recommendation change;

•

the other party materially breaches the provisions of the merger agreement described under “— No Solicitation; Board Recommendations ”;

•

at any time prior to obtaining the approval of its shareholders, in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a superior proposal, in each case if it has complied with its obligations under the provisions described under “— No Solicitation; Board Recommendations ” and, in connection with the termination of the merger agreement, it pays to the other party in immediately available funds $46 million; or

149

•

at any time prior to the effective time, if any of the other party’s covenants, representations or warranties contained in the merger agreement has been breached or any of the other party’s representations and warranties has become untrue, such that any of the conditions to the closing of the merger described under “— Conditions to Completion of the Merger ” will not be satisfied, and such breach is (i) incapable of being cured by the other party or (ii) has not been cured within 45 days of receipt by the other party of written notice of such breach describing in reasonable detail such breach.

The merger agreement may be terminated by either Tornier or Wright if, subject to certain conditions being met:

•

the required approval of either party’s shareholders contemplated under the merger agreement at the respective shareholders’ meeting is not obtained;

•

the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement violate any order, decree or ruling of any court or governmental body that has become final and non-appealable or if there is a law that makes the transactions contemplated in the merger agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited; or

•

Expenses and Termination Fee

The merger agreement provides that each of Tornier and Wright will be obligated to pay $46 million and expenses not to exceed $5 million to the other party following the termination of the merger agreement by the other party for the reasons described in the first three bullets under “— Termination of the Merger Agreement .”

Each of Tornier and Wright will also be obligated to pay the other party’s expenses not to exceed $5 million if an acquisition proposal with respect to it is publicly proposed or publicly disclosed and the merger agreement is terminated as a result of its breach of its representations and warranties or covenants or failure to obtain shareholder approval, and it will be obligated to pay the $46 million termination fee if it consummates an acquisition proposal within 12 months of such termination. For the purposes of this section only, 50% will be substituted for 20% threshold set forth in the definition of “acquisition proposal” described under “— No Solicitation; Board Recommendations .”

In no event will either Tornier or Wright be required to pay the termination fee or the expenses on more than one occasion.

Specific Performance

Tornier and Wright agreed in the merger agreement that if, for any reason, any of the provisions of the merger agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached, irreparable damage would be caused. Accordingly, each of the parties to the merger agreement agreed that, in addition to any other remedies to which it may be entitled, each of the parties to the merger agreement is entitled, in any court having jurisdiction, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the merger agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically the terms and conditions of the agreement, without the necessity of posting a bond or other form of security. Each party further acknowledged and agreed that the agreements relating to specific performance are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and that, without these agreements, the other party would not have entered into the merger agreement.

150

Amendments and Waivers

Until the effective time, the merger agreement may be amended by a writing signed by Tornier, Holdco, Merger Sub and Wright, at any time before or after the receipt of the requisite approval of Tornier and Wright shareholders, but after any such approval, no amendment may be made which by law or under NASDAQ rules requires further approval by the Tornier and Wright shareholders without such further approval.

No party will be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of the merger agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under it, unless the waiver is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of that party, and any such waiver will not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

Governing Law

The merger agreement is governed by and will be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

No Third Party Beneficiaries

The merger agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon you or any person other than the parties to the agreement any rights or remedies, except that Wright’s present and former officers, employees, directors and fiduciaries under a Wright employee benefit plan will have the right to enforce Tornier’s covenant to continue to provide indemnification, advancement of expenses, and liability insurance coverage following the completion of the merger as described in “— Indemnification of Officers and Directors ” above.

151

VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT

Concurrently and in connection with the signing of the merger agreement, Wright entered into a voting and support agreement with TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC that holds approximately 21.9% of the currently outstanding Tornier ordinary shares. Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the voting and support agreement, TMG (i) granted Wright a limited irrevocable proxy to vote each of TMG’s Tornier ordinary shares at any annual or extraordinary general meeting of Tornier shareholders (a) solely for the adoption of the merger agreement and the approval of the merger and (b) for the approval of any amendment to the merger agreement to allow for an alternative structure designed to accomplish the business combination of Wright and Tornier as contemplated under “ The Merger Agreement—Alternative Structures ” and (ii) agreed to vote any Tornier ordinary shares as to which TMG has voting power and has not given a proxy to Wright, or as to which Wright elects not to exercise its proxy voting rights, in favor of the merger agreement. In addition, TMG agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to directly or indirectly transfer its Tornier ordinary shares, during the term of the voting and support agreement or take any action which would have the effect of preventing or disabling TMG from performing its obligation thereunder.

The voting and support agreement will terminate upon the earliest of (i) the effective time of the merger; (ii) the date of any modification, waiver, change or amendment to the merger agreement that results in an increase in the exchange ratio or a change in the form of the merger consideration; and (iii) the termination of the merger agreement in accordance with its terms.

A copy of the voting and support agreement is attached as Annex B to this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The foregoing description of the voting and support agreement is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the voting and support agreement.

MATERIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

Scope of Discussion

The following is a summary of material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to Wright and the combined company and to U.S. holders and non-U.S. holders (each as defined below) of Wright shares. This summary also describes material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the subsequent ownership and disposition by U.S. holders of combined company ordinary shares.

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition by non-U.S. holders of combined company ordinary shares, except as otherwise specifically stated below. Accordingly, non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences (including the potential application of and operation of any income tax treaties) relating to the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares.

This summary is based on provisions of the Code, U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (whether final, temporary, or proposed), administrative rulings, and judicial interpretations thereof, and the Convention Between the United States of America and the Kingdom of the Netherlands for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income of 1992, as amended (which is referred to in this document as the “U.S.-Netherlands Treaty”), all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.

This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a holder as a result of the merger or as a result of the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. holder, including specific tax consequences to a holder under an applicable tax treaty. In addition, this summary does not address the U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax consequences of the merger or the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding such tax consequences in light of their particular circumstances.

No ruling has been requested or will be obtained from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger or any other matter; thus, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the U.S. federal income tax treatment described below or that, if challenged, such treatment will be sustained by a court. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the positions taken in this summary.

This summary is limited to considerations relevant for investors holding Wright shares, and, after the completion of the merger, combined company ordinary shares, as capital assets (generally, property held for investment). This summary does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a holder in light of its particular circumstances, including a holder subject to special tax rules, such as:

•

banks, financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies;

•

real estate investment trusts and regulated investment companies;

•

tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts;

•

expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States;

153

•

persons holding shares through a partnership, limited liability, or other fiscally or tax transparent entity;

•

dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies;

•

grantor trusts;

•

persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

•

U.S. persons whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar;

•

persons who received Wright shares, or, after the merger, combined company ordinary shares, through the exercise of incentive stock options or through the issuance of restricted stock under an equity incentive plan or through a tax-qualified retirement plan;

•

persons who own (directly or through attribution) 5% or more (by vote or value) of the outstanding Wright shares, or, after the merger, the outstanding combined company ordinary shares; or

•

holders holding Wright shares, or, after the merger, combined company ordinary shares, as a position in a “straddle,” as part of a “synthetic security” or “hedge,” as part of a “conversion transaction” or other integrated investment, or as other than a capital asset.

Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including holders described immediately above, should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences of the merger and the ownership and disposition of Wright shares and/or combined company ordinary shares.

The term “U.S. holder” means a holder of Wright shares, and, or, after the completion of the merger, combined company ordinary shares, that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S.;

•

a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation that is created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;

•

an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

•

a trust that (i) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and the control of one or more U.S. persons with respect to all of its substantial decisions, or (ii) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

The term “non-U.S. holder” means a holder of Wright shares and, after the completion of the merger, combined company ordinary shares (other than a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not a U.S. holder.

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in a partnership (including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is a holder of Wright shares, and, after the completion of the merger, combined company ordinary shares generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A partner in such a partnership should consult its tax advisor regarding the associated tax consequences.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to Wright

Wright should not incur additional U.S. federal income tax solely by virtue of the consummation of the merger. However, Wright will continue to be subject to U.S. tax after the merger. Furthermore, Wright (and its U.S. affiliates) may be subject to limitations on the utilization of certain tax attributes, as described below.

154

Tax Residence of the Combined Company for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes

Under current U.S. federal income tax law, a corporation generally will be considered to be resident for U.S. federal income tax purposes in its place of organization or incorporation. Accordingly, under the generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rules, the combined company, which is a Netherlands incorporated entity, would generally be classified as a non-U.S. corporation (and, therefore, not a U.S. tax resident). Section 7874 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, however, contain specific rules (more fully discussed below) that may cause a non-U.S. corporation to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These rules are complex and there is little or no guidance as to their application.

Under Section 7874, a corporation created or organized outside the United States (i.e., a non-U.S. corporation) will nevertheless be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and, therefore, a U.S. tax resident subject to U.S. federal income tax on its worldwide income) if the shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation hold at least 80% (by either vote or value) of the shares of the non-U.S. acquiring corporation after the acquisition by reason of holding shares in the U.S. acquired corporation (which includes the receipt of the non-U.S. corporation’s shares in exchange for the U.S. corporation’s shares), and certain other conditions are met. Based on the rules for determining share ownership under Section 7874 and certain factual assumptions, Wright will take the position that after the merger Wright shareholders will hold less than 80% (by both vote and value) of the combined company ordinary shares by reason of their ownership of Wright shares.

It is possible that there could be a change in law under Section 7874 or otherwise that could, prospectively or retroactively, affect the combined company’s status as a non-U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The disclosure that follows assumes that the combined company will not be treated as a U.S. corporation. The U.S. tax consequences of the merger to holders of Wright shares, and the consequences of owning combined company ordinary shares, would be materially different if, notwithstanding Wright’s expectation, the combined company were to be treated as a U.S. corporation.

Potential Limitation on the Utilization of Wright’s (and Its U.S. Affiliates’) Tax Attributes

Following the acquisition of a U.S. corporation by a non-U.S. corporation, Section 7874 can limit the ability of the acquired U.S. corporation and its U.S. affiliates to utilize U.S. tax attributes (including net operating losses and certain tax credits) to offset U.S. taxable income resulting from certain transactions if the shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation hold at least 60% (but less than 80%), by either vote or value, of the shares of the non-U.S. acquiring corporation by reason of holding shares in the U.S. corporation, and certain other conditions are met. Wright will take the position that, following the merger, the Wright shareholders will hold less than 60% of the vote and value of the combined company ordinary shares by reason of holding Wright shares. As a result, Wright and its U.S. affiliates do not expect to be limited by Section 7874 in their ability to utilize their U.S. tax attributes.

If the above described provision of Section 7874 apply, the taxable income of the acquired U.S. corporation (and any person related to the U.S. corporation) for any given year, within a 10-year period beginning on the last date the U.S. corporation’s properties were acquired, will be no less than that person’s “inversion gain” for that taxable year. A person’s inversion gain includes gain from the transfer of shares or any other property (other than property held for sale to customers) and income from the license of any property that is either transferred or licensed as part of the acquisition, or, if after the acquisition, is transferred or licensed to a non-U.S. related person. If Section 7874 applies and Wright or its U.S. affiliates engage in any transaction that would generate any inversion gain in the future, they would not be able to offset such gain with their U.S. tax attributes. In addition, Wright may undergo an “Ownership Change” under Section 382 of the Code, potentially limiting the rate of its net operating losses in future taxable years.

155

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to Wright Shareholders

U.S. Holders

Wright and Tornier expect that the merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Notwithstanding such fact, as discussed above, it is expected that the combined company should be respected as a non-U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such event, special rules contained in Section 367(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder will require that U.S. holders of Wright shares exchanging Wright shares for combined company ordinary shares pursuant to the merger recognize gain, if any, but not loss on such exchange. The amount of gain recognized will equal the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the combined company ordinary shares received in the merger over the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Wright shares. Any such gain will be capital gain, and generally will be long-term capital gain if the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Wright shares exceeded one year at the time of the Wright share exchange. The adjusted tax basis in the combined company ordinary shares received will be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the Wright shares exchanged therefor, increased by the amount of any gain recognized. It is unclear whether a U.S. holder’s holding period of the combined company ordinary shares will include the holding period for the Wright shares surrendered in exchange therefor. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the associated tax consequences. A Wright shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a Tornier ordinary share pursuant to the merger will be paid an amount in cash determined in accordance with the amount of their fractional share interest, instead of such fractional share. The cash received by any such U.S. holder will be treated as a payment in redemption of the fractional share interest. If a U.S. holder realizes loss as a result of the merger, such U.S. holder must recognize the loss attributable to the deemed redemption in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and such U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the fractional share interest. Any such loss will be capital loss, and generally will be long-term capital loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for the fractional share interest exceeded one year at the time of the Wright share exchange. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the merger will qualify as a reorganization and that the combined company will be considered a non-U.S. corporation.

Non-U.S. Holders

A non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or tax on any gain realized on such share exchange unless,

•

the gain is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by such non-U.S. holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed place of business maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States); or

•

such non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which the merger is completed, and certain other conditions are met.

Gain described in the first bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income taxation in the same manner as gain of a U.S. holder (and, in the case of a non-U.S. holder that is a non-U.S. corporation, may be subject to an additional branch profits tax equal to 30% of its effectively connected earnings and profits (or such lower rate as may be applicable under an applicable income tax treaty)).

Gain described in the second bullet point above will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty), which may be offset by the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. source capital losses, provided that the holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

A non-U.S. holder will not be subject to U.S. backup withholding if it provides a certification of exempt status (generally on an IRS Form W-8). Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will generally be allowed as a refund or a credit against the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

156

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders of the Ownership and Disposition of Combined Company Ordinary Shares

Distributions on the Combined Company Ordinary Shares

The gross amount of any distribution on combined company ordinary shares (including withheld taxes, if any) made out of the combined company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will generally be taxable to a U.S. holder as ordinary dividend income on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received. Any such dividends paid to corporate U.S. holders generally will not qualify for the dividends-received deduction that may otherwise be allowed under the Code. Distributions in excess of the combined company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. holder’s basis in a combined company common share, and thereafter as capital gain.

Dividends paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, if any, will generally be taxable to a U.S. holder as ordinary dividend income in an amount equal to the U.S. dollar value of the currency received on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received. Such U.S. dollar value must be determined using the spot rate of exchange on such date, regardless of whether the non-U.S. currency is actually converted into U.S. dollars on such date. The U.S. holder may realize exchange gain or loss if the currency received is converted into U.S. dollars after the date on which it is actually or constructively received. Any such gain or loss will be ordinary and will be treated as from sources within the United States for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

Dividends received by non-corporate U.S. holders (including individuals) from a “qualified foreign corporation” may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation, provided that certain holding period requirements and other conditions are satisfied. For these purposes, a non-U.S. corporation will be treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends paid by that corporation on shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that the combined company ordinary shares, which are expected to be listed on NASDAQ, will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There can be no assurance that the combined company ordinary shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in future years. A non-U.S. corporation is also treated as a qualified foreign corporation if it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States which is determined by the U.S. Treasury Department to be satisfactory for purposes of these rules and which includes an exchange of information provision. The U.S. Treasury Department has determined that the U.S.-Netherlands Treaty meets these requirements. The combined Company will not constitute a qualified foreign corporation for purposes of these rules if it is a passive foreign investment company, or “PFIC” for the taxable year in which it pays a dividend or for the preceding taxable year. The combined company does not believe that is has been or will be a PFIC; however, there can be no assurance in this regard.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, withholding taxes, if any, on dividends paid by the combined company may be treated as foreign taxes eligible for credit against a U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability under the U.S. foreign tax credit rules. For purposes of calculating the U.S. foreign tax credit, dividends paid on the combined company’s common shares will be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. The rules governing the U.S. foreign tax credit are complex. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the U.S. foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of Combined Company Ordinary Shares

A U.S. holder will generally recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption, or other taxable disposition of a combined company common share in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and such holder’s tax basis in the shares. The tax basis of the combined company ordinary shares received by a U.S. holder in the Wright share exchange is discussed above under “—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to Wright Shareholders .” Any gain or loss recognized by a

157

U.S. holder on a taxable disposition of combined company ordinary shares will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in such share exceeds one year at the time of the disposition. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder on the sale or exchange of combined company ordinary shares will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

U.S. Holders

Except in the case of corporations or other exempt holders, dividends paid by the combined company to a U.S. holder may be subject to U.S. information reporting requirements and may be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. holder provides an accurate taxpayer identification number on a properly completed IRS Form W-9 and certifies that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred. The amount of any backup withholding will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle the U.S. holder to a refund, provided that certain required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Individual U.S. holders that own “specified foreign financial assets” with an aggregate value in excess of $50,000 are generally required to file an information statement along with their tax returns, currently on Form 8938, with respect to such assets. “Specified foreign financial assets” include any financial accounts held at a non-U.S. financial institution, as well as securities issued by a non-U.S. issuer (which would include the combined company ordinary shares) that are not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions. Higher reporting thresholds apply to certain individuals living abroad and to certain married individuals. Regulations have been proposed that would extend this reporting requirement to certain entities that are treated as formed or availed of to hold direct or indirect interests in specified foreign financial assets based on certain objective criteria. U.S. holders who fail to report the required information could be subject to substantial penalties. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the application of these rules to their investment in the combined company, including the application of the rules to their particular circumstances.

Non-U.S. Holders

Non-U.S. holders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including U.S. federal withholding tax) on dividends or capital gains in respect of the combined company ordinary shares.

As noted above and discussed more fully under “ Risk Factors—Risk Factors Relating to the Merger ,” the consequences of owning combined company ordinary shares would be materially different if the combined company were to be treated as a U.S. corporation.

Non-U.S. holders may be required to comply with certification and identification procedures in order to establish an exemption from information reporting and backup withholding.

THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES SUMMARIZED ABOVE ARE FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. EACH HOLDER OF WRIGHT SHARES OR COMBINED COMPANY ORDINARY SHARES SHOULD CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER AND AN INVESTMENT IN COMBINED COMPANY ORDINARY SHARES IN LIGHT OF ITS PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

158

Material Dutch Tax Consequences

General Matters Relating to the Dutch Tax Discussion

The information set out below is a general summary of material Dutch tax consequences in connection with the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares. This summary does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the Dutch tax considerations that may be relevant for a particular holder of combined company ordinary shares in light of such holder’s particular circumstances or to a holder who is subject to special treatment under applicable Dutch law. For Dutch tax purposes, a holder of combined company ordinary shares may include an individual or entity who does not have legal title to the combined company ordinary shares, but to whom nevertheless the combined company ordinary shares are attributed either based on such individual or entity holding a beneficial interest in the combined company ordinary shares or based on specific statutory provisions. Under such statutory provisions, combined company ordinary shares may be attributed to an individual who is, or who has directly or indirectly inherited from a person who was, the settlor, grantor or similar originator of a trust, foundation or similar entity that holds the combined company ordinary shares.

The summary is based on the tax laws of the Netherlands as published and in effect on the date of this document, including official regulations and decisions of the Netherlands and its taxing and other authorities available in printed form on or before such date and now in effect, and as applied and interpreted by Dutch tax courts, without prejudice to any amendments introduced at a later date and implemented with or without retroactive effect. These tax laws are subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the continuing validity of this summary.

All references in this summary to the Netherlands and Dutch law mean the part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located in Europe and its law, respectively. This summary does not address the tax consequences arising in any jurisdiction other than the Netherlands in connection with the ownership and disposition of combined company ordinary shares.

Because the combined company is incorporated under Dutch law, it will be treated for Dutch corporate income tax purposes as a resident of the Netherlands. Based on the currently contemplated management structure of the combined company and the current tax laws of the United States and the Netherlands, as well as applicable income tax treaties and current interpretations thereof, the combined company expects to be a tax resident solely of the Netherlands. This summary therefore assumes that the combined company is and remains exclusively resident in the Netherlands for tax purposes, including for the purposes of applicable tax treaties, and is therefore subject to Dutch taxation.

This discussion does not purport to describe the possible Dutch tax considerations or consequences that may be relevant to a holder of combined company ordinary shares:

•

that is a corporate entity which is, or which is deemed to be, a resident of the Netherlands and that is not subject to or is exempt, in whole or in part, from Dutch corporate income tax;

•

who is an individual and for whom the income or capital gains derived from the combined company ordinary shares are attributable to employment activities, the income from which is taxable in the Netherlands;

•

who has a substantial interest or a fictitious substantial interest (as discussed below);

•

that is an investment institution as meant in articles 6a or 28 of the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act (which is referred to in this document as “CITA”); or

•

that is entitled to the participation exemption ( deelnemingsvrijstelling ) with respect to the combined company ordinary shares (as defined in article 13 CITA).

159

Generally, a holder of combined company ordinary shares has a substantial interest ( aanmerkelijk belang ) in the combined company if such holder, alone or together with such holder’s partner (a statutorily defined term), directly or indirectly:

•

owns, or holds certain rights with respect to, shares representing 5% or more of the total issued and outstanding share capital of the combined company, or of the issued and outstanding capital of any class of shares of the combined company; or

•

holds rights to, directly or indirectly, acquire shares, whether or not already issued, representing 5% or more of the total issued and outstanding share capital of the combined company or of the issued and outstanding capital of any class of shares of the combined company.

A holder of combined company ordinary shares or rights to, directly or indirectly, acquire combined company ordinary shares will also have a substantial interest if the holder’s partner or one of certain relatives of the relevant holder or of the holder’s partner has a substantial interest in the combined company.

A holder of combined company ordinary shares has a fictitious substantial interest ( fictief aanmerkelijk belang ) in the combined company if, without having an actual substantial interest in the combined company:

•

such holder has acquired the combined company ordinary shares on a non-recognition basis, where prior to such acquisition, the holder or the previous holder had a substantial interest in the combined company or another Dutch entity; or

•

the combined company ordinary shares held by the relevant holder prior to dilution, qualified as a substantial interest and, by election, no gain was recognized upon disqualification of these shares.

THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, NOR SHOULD IT BE CONSTRUED AS BEING, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE. PROSPECTIVE HOLDERS OF COMBINED COMPANY ORDINARY SHARES ARE THEREFORE STRONGLY ADVISED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE DUTCH OR OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF COMBINED COMPANY ORDINARY SHARES RECEIVED IN THE MERGER, INCLUDING, IN PARTICULAR, THE APPLICATION TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS OF THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS DISCUSSED BELOW.

General—Withholding Requirement on Dividends Paid to, and Other Proceeds from Shares in the Combined Company Derived by, Holders of Combined Company Ordinary Shares

On the basis of the Dutch Dividend Tax Act 1965 ( Wet op de dividendbelasting 1965 ), dividend withholding tax is levied on those who are entitled to the proceeds from the combined company ordinary shares. Dividends paid on the combined company ordinary shares to a holder of such combined company ordinary shares generally will be subject to a dividend withholding tax of 15% imposed by the Netherlands. The term “dividends” for this purpose includes, but is not limited to:

•

distributions in cash or in kind, deemed and constructive distributions;

•

amounts that the combined company pays upon the repurchase of combined company ordinary shares in excess of the average capital recognized as paid-up for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes on those shares, other than share repurchases performed for temporary investment purposes;

•

amounts the combined company distributes to holders of combined company ordinary shares upon liquidation in excess of the average capital recognized as paid-up for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes on those shares;

160

•

the nominal value of shares that are issued to holders of combined company ordinary shares or an increase in the nominal value of their shares to the extent that capital has not been contributed or will not be contributed onto those shares; and

•

partial repayment of capital contributed on shares that is not recognized as paid-up for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes or that is recognized as paid-up for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes to the extent there are qualifying profits ( zuivere winst ), including anticipated profits that have yet to be realized, unless the repayment is made pursuant to a prior decision to that effect by the general meeting of shareholders and the nominal value of the shares is reduced by the same amount pursuant to an amendment of the articles of incorporation of the combined company.

Notwithstanding the above, no withholding is required in the event of a repurchase of shares in particular situations as described in the Dutch Dividend Tax Act 1965, if certain conditions are fulfilled and to the extent the amount of the repurchase does not exceed the relevant thresholds set forth in the Dutch Dividend Tax Act 1965.

In principle, dividend withholding tax will not be borne by the combined company, but will be withheld from the gross dividends the combined company pays on the combined company ordinary shares. In general, the combined company will be required to remit all amounts withheld as Dutch dividend withholding tax to the Dutch tax authorities. However, in connection with distributions received by the combined company from our foreign subsidiaries, the combined company is allowed, subject to certain conditions, to reduce the amount to be remitted to the Dutch tax authorities by the lesser of:

(i) 3% of the portion of the distribution paid by the combined company that is subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax; and

(ii) 3% of the dividends and profit distributions, before deduction of foreign withholding taxes, received by the combined company from qualifying foreign subsidiaries in the current calendar year (up to the date of the distribution by the combined company) and the two preceding calendar years, insofar as such dividends and profit distributions have not yet been taken into account for purposes of establishing the above- mentioned deductions.

For purposes of determining the 3% threshold under (i) above, a distribution by the combined company is not taken into account in case the Dutch dividend withholding tax withheld in respect thereof may be fully refunded, unless the recipient of such distribution is a qualifying entity that is not subject to corporate income tax.

Although this reduction reduces the amount of Dutch dividend withholding tax that the combined company is required to pay to the Dutch tax authorities, it does not reduce the amount of tax that the combined company is required to withhold from dividends.

Resident Holder of Combined Company Ordinary Shares

A holder of combined company ordinary shares who is, or who is deemed to be, a resident of the Netherlands can generally credit the withholding tax against his Dutch income tax or corporate income tax liability and is generally entitled to a refund of dividend withholding taxes exceeding his aggregate Dutch income tax or corporate income tax liability, provided certain conditions are met, unless such holder of combined company ordinary shares is not considered to be the beneficial owner of the dividends.

A holder of combined company ordinary shares who is the recipient of dividends, or the “Recipient”, will not be considered the beneficial owner of the dividends for this purpose if:

•

as a consequence of a combination of transactions, a person other than the Recipient wholly or partly benefits from the dividends;

•

whereby such other person retains, directly or indirectly, an interest similar to that in the combined company ordinary shares on which the dividends were paid; and

161

•

that other person is entitled to a credit, reduction or refund of dividend withholding tax that is less than that of the Recipient (“Dividend Stripping”).

Non-Resident Holders of Combined Company Ordinary Shares

With respect to a holder of combined company ordinary shares, who is not and is not deemed to be a resident of the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch taxation and who is considered to be a resident of (a) Aruba, Curacao or St. Maarten under the provisions of the Tax Arrangement for the Kingdom of the Netherlands ( Belastingregeling voor het Koninkrijk ); (b) Bonaire, St. Eustatius or Saba under the provisions of the Tax Regulation for the country of the Netherlands ( Belastingregeling voor het land Nederland ); or (c) a country other than the Netherlands under the provisions of a double taxation convention the Netherlands has concluded with such country, the following may apply. Such holder of combined company ordinary shares may, depending on the terms of and subject to compliance with the procedures for claiming benefits under the Tax Arrangement for the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Tax Regulation for the country of the Netherlands, or such double taxation convention, be eligible for a full or partial exemption from or a reduction or refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax.

In addition, an exemption from Dutch dividend withholding tax will generally apply to dividends distributed to certain qualifying entities, provided that the following tests are satisfied:

(i) the entity is a resident of another EU member state or of a designated state that is a party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (currently Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway), according to the tax laws of such state;

(ii) the entity at the time of the distribution has an interest in the combined company to which the participation exemption as meant in Article 13 of the CITA or to which the participation credit as meant in Article 13aa of the CITA would have been applicable, had such entity been a tax resident of the Netherlands;

(iii) the entity does not perform a similar function as an exempt investment institution ( vrijgestelde beleggingsinstelling ) or fiscal investment institution ( fiscale beleggingsinstelling ), as meant in the CITA; and

(iv) the entity is, in its state of residence, not considered to be resident outside the member states of the European Union or the designated states that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area under the terms of a double taxation convention concluded with a third state.

The exemption from Dutch dividend withholding tax is not available if pursuant to a provision for the prevention of fraud or abuse included in a double taxation treaty between the Netherlands and the country of residence of the non-resident holder of combined company ordinary shares, such holder would not be entitled to the reduction of tax on dividends provided for by such treaty. Furthermore, the exemption from Dutch dividend withholding tax will only be available to the beneficial owner of the dividend.

Furthermore, certain entities that are resident in (a) another EU member state; (b) a designated state that is a party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (currently Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway); or (c) provided that such entity holds the combined company ordinary shares as portfolio investment (i.e., such combined company ordinary shares are not held with a view to the establishment or maintenance of lasting and direct economic links between such entity and the combined company and such combined company ordinary shares do not allow such entity to participate effectively in the management or control of the combined company), in a designated jurisdiction which has an arrangement for the exchange of tax information with the Netherlands, and that are not subject to taxation levied by reference to profits in their state of residence, may be entitled to a refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax, provided:

(i) such entity, had it been a resident in the Netherlands, would not be subject to corporate income tax in the Netherlands;

(ii) such entity can be considered to be the beneficial owner of the dividends;

162

(iii) such entity does not perform a similar function to that of a fiscal investment institution ( fiscale beleggingsinstelling ) or an exempt investment institution ( vrijgestelde beleggingsinstelling ) as meant in the CITA; and

(iv) certain administrative conditions are met.

U.S. Holders of Combined Company Ordinary Shares

Dividend distributions to a U.S. holder of combined company ordinary shares (with an interest of less than 10% of the voting rights in the combined company) are subject to 15% dividend withholding tax, which is equal to the rate such U.S. holder may be entitled to under the U.S.-Netherlands Treaty. As such, there is no need to claim a refund of the excess of the amount withheld over the tax treaty rate.

On the basis of article 35 of the U.S.-Netherlands Treaty, qualifying U.S. pension trusts are under certain conditions entitled to a full exemption from Dutch dividend withholding tax. Such qualifying exempt U.S. pension trusts must provide the combined company form IB 96 USA, along with a valid certificate, for the application of relief at source from dividend withholding tax. If the combined company receives the required documentation prior to the relevant dividend payment date, then the combined company may apply such relief at source. If a qualifying exempt U.S. pension trust fails to satisfy these requirements prior to the payment of a dividend, then such qualifying exempt pension trust may claim a refund of Dutch withholding tax by filing form IB 96 USA with the Dutch tax authorities. On the basis of article 36 of the U.S.-Netherlands Treaty, qualifying exempt U.S. organizations are under certain conditions entitled to a full exemption from Dutch dividend withholding tax. Such qualifying exempt U.S. organizations are not entitled to claim relief at source, and instead must claim a refund of Dutch withholding tax by filing form IB 95 USA with the Dutch tax authorities.

The concept of Dividend Stripping, described above, may also be applied to determine whether a holder of combined company ordinary shares may be eligible for a full or partial exemption from, reduction or refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax, as described in the preceding paragraphs.

Income Tax and Corporate Income Tax

Dutch Resident Individuals

An individual who is resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch taxation (a “Dutch Resident Individual”) and who holds combined company ordinary shares is subject to Dutch income tax on income or capital gains derived or deemed to be derived from the combined company ordinary shares at the progressive rate (up to 52%; rate for 2015) if:

(i) the holder derives profits from an enterprise or deemed enterprise, whether as an entrepreneur ( ondernemer ) or pursuant to a co-entitlement to the net worth of such enterprise (other than as an entrepreneur or a shareholder), to which enterprise the combined company ordinary shares are attributable or deemed to be attributable; or

(ii) the holder derives income or capital gains from the combined company ordinary shares, as the case may be, that are taxable as benefits from “miscellaneous activities” ( resultaat uit overige werkzaamheden , as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001; Wet inkomstenbelasting 2001), which include the performance of activities with respect to the combined company ordinary shares, that exceed regular, active portfolio management ( normaal, actief vermogensbeheer ) and also include benefits resulting from a lucrative interest ( lucratief belang ).

If conditions (i) and (ii) mentioned above do not apply, any holder of combined company ordinary shares who is a Dutch Resident Individual will be subject to Dutch income tax on a deemed return regardless of the actual income or capital gains benefits derived from the combined company ordinary shares. This deemed return has been fixed at a rate of 4% of the individual’s yield basis ( rendementsgrondslag ) insofar as this exceeds a

163

certain threshold ( heffingvrij vermogen ). The individual’s yield basis is determined as the fair market value of certain qualifying assets (including the combined company ordinary shares) less the fair market value of certain qualifying liabilities held by the Dutch Resident Individual, both determined on January, 1st of the relevant year. The deemed return of 4% will be taxed at a rate of 30% (rate for 2015).

Dutch Resident Entities

An entity that is resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands (a “Dutch Resident Entity”), will generally be subject to Dutch corporate income tax with respect to income and capital gains derived or deemed to be derived from the combined company ordinary shares. The Dutch corporate income tax rate is 20% for the first €200,000 of taxable income and 25% for taxable income exceeding €200,000 (rates applicable for 2015).

Non-Resident Individuals

A holder who is an individual, other than a Dutch Resident Individual, (a “Non-Resident Individual”) will not be subject to Dutch income tax in respect of income or capital gains derived from the combined company ordinary shares, unless the relevant holder:

•

derives profits from an enterprise whether as entrepreneur ( ondernemer ) or pursuant to a co-entitlement to the net worth of such enterprise other than as an entrepreneur or a shareholder, which enterprise is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands and to which enterprise or part of an enterprise, as the case may be, the combined company ordinary shares are attributable or deemed attributable;

•

derives benefits from miscellaneous activities ( overige werkzaamheden ) carried out in the Netherlands in respect of the combined company ordinary shares, including activities which are beyond the scope of active portfolio investment activities; or

•

is entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise, other than by way of securities or through an employment contract, that is effectively managed in the Netherlands, and to which enterprise the combined company ordinary shares are attributable.

Non-Resident Corporate Entities

A holder that is a corporate entity, other than a Dutch Resident Entity, (a “Non-Resident Corporate Entity”) will not be subject to Dutch corporate income tax in respect of income or capital gains derived from the combined company ordinary shares, unless the relevant holder:

•

derives profits from an enterprise, which enterprise is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands and to which enterprise or part of an enterprise, as the case may be, the combined company ordinary shares are attributable or deemed attributable; or

•

is entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise or co-entitled to the net worth of such enterprise effectively managed in the Netherlands, other than by way of the holding of securities, to which enterprise the combined company ordinary shares or payments in respect of the combined company ordinary shares are attributable.

Value Added Tax

There is no Dutch value added tax ( omzetbelasting ) payable by a holder of combined company ordinary shares in respect of the ownership and disposition of the combined company ordinary shares (other than value added tax payable in respect of services not exempt from Dutch value added tax).

164

Registration Taxes and Duties

No registration taxes or taxes of a documentary nature, such as capital tax, stamp or registration tax or duty, are payable by or on behalf of a holder of combined company ordinary shares solely by reason of the ownership and disposition of the combined company ordinary shares.

Residency

A holder of combined company ordinary shares will not become resident in the Netherlands for tax purposes solely by reason of holding the combined company ordinary shares.

Gift and Inheritance Taxes

If a holder of combined company ordinary shares disposes of shares by way of gift, in form or in substance, or if a holder of combined company ordinary shares who is an individual dies, no Dutch gift tax or Dutch inheritance tax, as applicable, will be due unless:

•

the donor is, or the deceased was, resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch gift tax or Dutch inheritance tax, as applicable; or

•

the donor made a gift of shares, then became a resident or deemed resident of the Netherlands, and died as a resident or deemed resident of the Netherlands within 180 days of the date of the gift.

For purposes of the above, a gift of combined company ordinary shares made under a condition precedent ( opschortende voorwaarde ) is deemed to be made at the time the condition precedent is satisfied. For purposes of Dutch gift and inheritance tax, an individual who is of Dutch nationality will be deemed to be a resident of the Netherlands if he has been a resident in the Netherlands at any time during the ten years preceding the date of the gift or his death. For purposes of Dutch gift tax, an individual will, irrespective of his nationality, be deemed to be a resident of the Netherlands if he has been a resident in the Netherlands at any time during the 12 months preceding the date of the gift. Applicable tax treaties may override deemed residency.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On October 27, 2014, Wright and Tornier entered into the merger agreement, pursuant to the terms of which (1) each outstanding Wright share will be exchanged for ordinary shares of Tornier and (2) Merger Sub will merge with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation in the merger and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier. Tornier will be the parent of the surviving corporation, which will be renamed Wright Medical Group N.V., and will continue to be organized under the laws of the Netherlands.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet at March 31, 2015 gives effect to the merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 2015. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and three months ended March 31, 2015 are presented as if the merger was consummated on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (the “Pro Forma Financial Statements”) are based on the historical consolidated financial position and results of operations of Wright and Tornier. The following should be read in conjunction with the historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Wright included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of Wright included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, both incorporated by reference herein, and the historical unaudited consolidated financial statements of Tornier included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 29, 2015 and in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of Tornier included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2014, both incorporated by reference herein.

U.S. GAAP requires that, for each business combination, one of the combining entities be identified as the acquirer, and the existence of a controlling financial interest be used to identify the acquirer in a business combination. In a business combination effected primarily by exchanging equity interests, the acquirer usually is the entity that issues its equity interests. However, the acquirer for accounting purposes may not be the legal acquirer (i.e., the entity that issues its equity interest to effect the business combination).

After taking in consideration all relevant facts, Wright is considered to be the acquirer for accounting purposes primarily because it will obtain effective control of Tornier. As a result, the merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition. The merger will constitute the acquisition of a business for purposes of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations,” or ASC 805. At the merger date, Wright’s assets and liabilities will be presented at their pre-combination amounts and Tornier’s assets and liabilities will be recorded at their estimated fair values. The allocation of the purchase price used in the Pro Forma Financial Statements is based upon a preliminary valuation. Estimates and assumptions are subject to change upon finalization of these preliminary valuations within one year of consummation of the merger.

The Pro Forma Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X. The pro forma adjustments reflecting the completion of the merger are based upon the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and upon the assumptions set forth in the notes to the Pro Forma Financial Statements.

The Pro Forma Financial Statements are not intended to represent or be indicative of the consolidated results of operations or financial position that would have been reported had the merger been completed as of the dates presented, and should not be taken as representative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position. The Pro Forma Financial Statements are based upon available information and certain assumptions that Wright’s management believes are reasonable.

The historical financial data has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are (1) directly attributable to the merger, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not reflect any

166

revenue enhancements, anticipated synergies or dis-synergies, operating efficiencies, or cost savings that may be achieved. The allocation of the purchase price to the assets and liabilities acquired reflected in the pro forma financial data is preliminary and is based on Wright’s management’s estimates of the fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Accordingly, the actual financial position and results of operations may differ from these pro forma amounts as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed. The final valuations may result in material changes to the preliminary estimated purchase price allocation.

The pro forma adjustments included in this joint proxy statement/prospectus are subject to modification depending on changes in interest rates, changes in share prices and the final fair value determination for assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and as additional information becomes available and additional analyses are performed. The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined after the merger is closed and after completion of thorough analyses to determine the fair value of Tornier’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities as of the date the merger is completed. Increases or decreases in the fair values of the net assets as compared with the information shown in the Pro Forma Financial Statements may change the amount of the purchase price allocated to goodwill, if any, and other assets and liabilities and may impact Wright’s statements of operations due to adjustments in yield and/or amortization of the adjusted assets or liabilities. Any changes to Tornier’s equity, including results of operations from March 31, 2015 through the date the merger is completed, will also change the purchase price allocation, which may include the recording of a lower or higher amount of goodwill. The final adjustments may be materially different from the Pro Forma Financial Statements presented in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The pro forma information, while helpful in illustrating the financial characteristics of the combined company under one set of assumptions, does not reflect the effects of expected cost savings or expected increases in costs, or opportunities to earn additional revenue or potential loss of certain revenue, and, accordingly, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results. It also does not necessarily reflect what the historical benefits of the combined company would have been had the two companies been combined during these periods.

The unaudited pro forma equity and net income from continuing operations are qualified by the statements set forth under this caption and should not be considered indicative of the market value of Tornier ordinary shares or the actual or future results of operations of Tornier for any period. Actual results may be materially different than the pro forma information presented.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Description of the Merger

The merger agreement provides for the business combination of Wright and Tornier. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement (1) each outstanding share of Wright common stock will be exchanged for ordinary shares of Tornier and (2) Merger Sub will merge with and into Wright, with Wright as the surviving corporation in the Merger and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier. Tornier will be the parent of the surviving corporation, which will be renamed Wright Medical Group N.V., and will continue to be organized under the laws of the Netherlands.

At the effective time of the merger, (1) each share of Wright common stock will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares from or at the direction of Tornier; (2) each option to acquire Wright shares that is then outstanding will be fully vested and exchanged for an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the option prior to the merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the merger), that number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (i) the number of Wright shares subject to the option and (ii) 1.0309, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Tornier ordinary shares, at an exercise price per Tornier ordinary share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of the Wright option by (y) 1.0309, rounded up to the nearest whole cent; (3) each Wright restricted share that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions and be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 Tornier ordinary shares; and (4) each Wright restricted stock unit award that is then outstanding will automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions, and, at the effective time, be cancelled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive that number of Tornier ordinary shares that is equal to the product of (i) the total number of Wright shares underlying the award immediately prior to the effective time and (ii) 1.0309. Cash will be paid to Wright shareholders in lieu of any fractional Tornier ordinary shares determined in accordance with the amount of the fractional share interest, instead of such fractional share.

For purposes of the Pro Forma Financial Statements only, the total consideration to the holders of Tornier ordinary shares reflects the estimated fair value of the equity issuance, which is based on the April 24, 2015 closing price of Wright shares of $26.26 per share. Tornier shareholders will not receive consideration in connection with the merger; however, because Wright is the acquirer for accounting purposes, the Pro Forma Financial Statements reflect the estimated fair value of the equity issuance to Tornier shareholders. This amount of total consideration is not necessarily indicative of the actual consideration that will be transferred in the merger.

The consummation of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including approvals by Wright and Tornier shareholders. In addition, the proposed merger requires regulatory approvals in the United States and certain other countries. Tornier and Wright hope to complete the merger as soon as reasonably practicable. Tornier and Wright currently expect that the closing could occur at the end of the second quarter of 2015 but more likely in the third quarter.

2. Basis of Presentation

The total estimated consideration for the acquisition (for accounting purposes) of Tornier is expected to equal the equivalent of the market value of the Wright shares that would have been issued to current Tornier shareholders immediately following the closing of the merger to effectuate the 48% ownership of the combined company. For purposes of these Pro Forma Financial Statements, the acquisition consideration was based on the number of Wright shares that would have been issued to the current Tornier equity holders, had the merger closed on a recent date, specifically, on April 24, 2015, and the market value of Wright shares as of that date ($26.26). Total acquisition consideration as of this date is estimated to be $1.3 billion. An increase or decrease of 1% in Wright’s share price would impact the total consideration by approximately $12.4 million. An increase or decrease of 1% in Tornier’s ordinary share price would impact the total consideration by approximately $13.5 million. The total actual consideration will fluctuate until the closing of the merger.

171

The Pro Forma Financial Statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and based on the historical financial information of Wright and Tornier. The acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805 requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with ASC 805, uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (ASC 820). The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the Pro Forma Financial Statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the merger, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results.

ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes the framework for measuring fair value for any asset acquired or liability assumed under U.S. GAAP, expands disclosures about fair value measurements, and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measurements. Fair value is defined in ASC 820 as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” This is an exit price concept for the valuation of an asset or liability. Market participants are assumed to be buyers or sellers in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Fair value measurement for an asset assumes the highest and best use by these market participants, and as a result, assets may be required to be recorded which are not intended to be used or sold. Additionally, the fair value may not reflect Wright’s management’s intended use for those assets. Fair value measurements can be highly subjective and it is possible the application of reasonable judgment could develop different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies must be recognized at fair value if the fair value can be reasonably estimated. If the fair value of an asset or liability that arises from a contingency cannot be determined, the asset or liability would be recognized in accordance with ASC 450, “Disclosure of Certain Loss Contingencies” (ASC 450). If the fair value is not determinable and the ASC 450 criteria are not met, no asset or liability would be recognized. At this time, to the extent contingencies exist, Wright’s management does not have sufficient information to determine the fair value of Tornier’s contingencies to be acquired. If information becomes available, which would permit Wright’s management to determine the fair value of these acquired contingencies, these amounts will be adjusted in accordance with ASC 820.

The unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements of Wright have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These Pro Forma Financial Statements include the accounts of Wright presented on a calendar year end and Tornier, which is determined on a 52-week basis consisting of four 13-week quarters, with year end falling on the Sunday nearest to December 31. There were no material intervening events that occurred involving the two entities between March 29, 2015 and March 31, 2015, or between December 28, 2014 and December 31, 2014.

3. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet Adjustments

The estimated pro forma adjustments as a result of recording assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values in accordance with ASC 805 discussed below are preliminary. Independent third-party appraisers assisted in performing a preliminary valuation. Wright’s management assumes responsibility for the valuation performed by these appraisers. The final valuation of acquired assets and liabilities assumed will be determined at a later date and is dependent on a number of factors, including the final evaluation of the fair value of Tornier’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed may be materially different than the value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting from the estimated pro forma adjustments.

172

The preliminary consideration and estimated fair value of Tornier’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed as if the merger had closed on March 31, 2015 is presented as follows:


(in thousands)	Note		Amount
Calculation of consideration estimated to be transferred
Fair value of ordinary shares effectively transferred to Tornier shareholders		3(a)	$	1,244,211
Fair value of ordinary shares effectively transferred to Tornier share award holders		3(b)		16,369
Fair value of ordinary shares effectively issued to Tornier stock option holders		3(c)		36,398

Fair value of total consideration				1,296,978
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed
Net book value of assets acquired as of March 31, 2015				449,098
Less transaction costs expected to be incurred by Tornier		3(h)		(12,850	)
Less write-off of pre-existing Tornier goodwill and intangible assets				(323,244	)

Adjusted net book value of assets assumed				113,004
Identifiable intangible assets at fair value		3(d)		236,400
Increase property, plant and equipment to fair value		3(e)		18,025
Increase inventory to fair value		3(l)		49,334
Other adjustments at fair value		3(m)		(12,618	)
Deferred tax impact of fair value adjustment		3(f)		(57,689	)

Goodwill			$	950,522

a)	To record the fair value of Wright shares that would have been held by the current Tornier shareholders had the merger closed on April 24, 2015.

In accordance with ASC 805, the consideration transferred includes $16.4 million for the fair value of certain Tornier share awards, consisting of restricted stock units and performance stock units, which include a preexisting, automatic change in control clause (whereby these awards vest immediately upon a change in control). The consideration transferred in the merger will be measured using the fair value based measure of the share awards as of the closing date.

For purposes of calculating the consideration transferred, the fair value based measure of the Tornier share awards was determined to be the closing market price of Tornier ordinary shares of $26.25 on April 24, 2015.

Changes in Tornier’s stock price up to the date of the merger may result in a material difference from the stock price used to calculate this component of the estimated consideration transferred for purposes of the Pro Forma Financial Statements.

In accordance with ASC 805, the consideration transferred includes $36.4 million for the fair value of certain Tornier stock options, which include a preexisting, automatic change in control clause (whereby the options vest immediately upon a change in control). The consideration transferred in the merger will be measured using the fair value based measure of the stock options as of the closing date.

For purposes of calculating the consideration transferred, the fair value based measure of the Tornier options was determined on a grant-by-grant basis using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (1) the closing market price of Tornier ordinary shares of $26.25 on April 24, 2015; (2) an expected remaining life considering the original expected life for the options, the remaining service period and the contractual life of the option as of March 31, 2015; (3) volatility based on a blend of the historical stock price volatility of common stock over the most recent period equivalent to the expected life of the options; and (4) the risk-free interest rate based on published U.S. Treasury yields for notes with comparable terms as the expected life of the options.

173

d)	For purposes of the Pro Forma Financial Statements, the general categories of the acquired identifiable intangible assets are expected to be the following:

•

Customer relationships

•

Developed technology

•

In-process R&D

•

Trade name

Identifiable intangible assets expected to be acquired consist of the following:


(in thousands)	Amount
Identifiable intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	101,000
Developed technology		110,900
In-process R&D		12,300
Trade name		12,200

Estimated fair value of identified intangible assets		236,400
Pre-existing Tornier intangible assets		(86,295	)

Pro forma adjustment for estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets	$	150,105

Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in the development of intangible asset fair values, from the perspective of a market participant, include: the amount and timing of projected future cash flows (including revenue, cost of sales, research and development costs, sales and marketing expenses, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements) as well as estimated contributory asset charges; the discount rate selected to measure inherent risk of future cash flows; and the assessment of the asset’s life cycle and the competitive trends impacting the asset, among other factors. These assumptions will be adjusted accordingly, if the final identifiable intangible asset valuation generates results that differ from the pro forma estimates or if the above scope of intangible assets is modified, including corresponding useful lives and related amortization methods. The final valuation will be completed within 12 months of the completion of the merger.

e)	To record an estimated $18.0 million increase to Tornier’s property, plant, and equipment to present property, plant, and equipment at estimated fair value.

174

Reflects the adjustment to deferred income tax assets and liabilities resulting from pro forma fair value adjustments for the assets and liabilities to be acquired. This estimate of deferred taxes was determined based on the excess book basis over the tax basis of the fair value pro forma adjustments attributable to the assets and liabilities to be acquired. The statutory tax rate was applied, as appropriate, to each adjustment based on the jurisdiction in which the adjustment is expected to occur. For further information, see Note 4(d). The deferred tax assets recorded on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet have not been assessed for the need of a valuation allowance. Further, the deferred tax liabilities recorded on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet have not been assessed to determine the possible release of a valuation allowance. This estimate of deferred income tax assets and liabilities is preliminary and is subject to change based upon Wright’s management’s final determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed by jurisdiction.


(in thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31, 2015
Adjustments to current deferred tax asset:
Inventory – Note 3(l)	$	1,049
Adjustments to current deferred tax liability:
Inventory – Note 3(l)		2,534
Adjustments to non-current deferred tax asset:
Property, plant and equipment – Note 3(e)		(42	)
Adjustments to non-current deferred tax liability:
Identifiable intangible assets – Note 3(d)		53,963
Pre merger goodwill – Note 3(n)		(3,388	)
Property, plant and equipment – Note 3(e)		5,587

		56,162

Deferred tax impact of fair value adjustments	$	57,689

g)	To record the following goodwill adjustments:


(in thousands)
Goodwill	$	950,522
Pre-existing Tornier goodwill		(236,949	)

Pro forma adjustment	$	713,573

h)	Represents $13.2 million of estimated net transaction costs to be incurred by Tornier, which will reduce net assets acquired with the exception of equity issuance costs of $0.4 million, which will reduce retained earnings (accumulated deficit).

Represents the elimination of Tornier’s historical additional paid-in capital, accumulated other comprehensive income, and retained earnings (accumulated deficit). This adjustment also reflects the combined company’s anticipated ordinary shares at €0.03 fair value, with the offset to additional paid-in capital.

Pursuant to Tornier’s credit agreement entered into on October 4, 2012, certain activities would be defined as a “change in control” under the agreement. The merger constitutes a change in control, which requires payment of the outstanding principal and interest. The Pro Forma Financial Statements are adjusted to represent the payment of the bank term debt and line of credit, and the elimination of the related interest expense (see Note 4(a)). Included as an offset to Tornier’s outstanding debt balance is $2.2 million of deferred financing costs related to the debt, which have also been eliminated.

k)	To record Wright’s estimated acquisition-related transaction costs of $21.3 million. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet reflects the $21.3 million of costs as a reduction of cash with a corresponding decrease to retained earnings (accumulated deficit).

175

To record an estimated $49.3 million increase to Tornier’s inventory to present inventory at estimated fair value. The pro forma unaudited statement of operations does not reflect the amortization of the inventory fair value increase since it is not expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. This charge will be included in the combined company’s statement of operations subsequent to the merger and is expected to be released over the normal sales cycle, estimated to be approximately 12 months.

Tornier’s historical balance sheet includes $12.9 million of prepaid taxes related to the intercompany transfer of inventory. As prepaid taxes on the intercompany transfer of inventory do not result in any future value the balance has been eliminated. The remainder of the adjustment is to record assets and liabilities associated with favorable and unfavorable leasehold interests in order to present them at fair value.

n)	To remove the pre-merger deferred tax liability associated with goodwill deductible for tax purposes.

4. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations Adjustments

a)	To eliminate Tornier’s historical interest expense related to its bank term debt and line of credit, which will be paid off as a result of the merger (see Note 3(j)).

b)	To record estimated pro forma amortization expense on the finite-lived intangible assets pro forma adjustment discussed in Note 3(d) of $1.6 million and $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, respectively.

Pro forma amortization has been estimated on a preliminary basis, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life and is as follows:


(in thousands, except estimated useful life)	Estimated Fair Value		Weighted Average Estimated Useful Life		Three Months Ended March 31, 2015			Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2014
Acquired finite-lived intangible assets	$	224,100		10	$	5,598		$	22,392
Tornier historical amortization expense						(4,028	)		(17,135	)

Pro forma amortization expense					$	1,570		$	5,257

To record estimated pro forma depreciation expense on the property, plant, and equipment pro forma adjustment discussed in Note 3(e) of $0.7 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, respectively. The estimated pro forma depreciation expense adjustment is based on the increase in fair value above net book value calculated over an approximate estimated weighted average useful life of six years.

d)	The statutory tax rate was applied, as appropriate, to each adjustment based on the jurisdiction in which the adjustment was expected to occur.

Although not reflected in the Pro Forma Financial Statements, the effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different depending on post-acquisition activities, such as the geographical mix of taxable income affecting state and foreign taxes, among other factors.

176

Estimated income tax expense (benefit) included in the pro forma statements of earnings is as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2015			Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2014
(in thousands)	Acquisition Adjustment			Acquisition Adjustment
Interest expense – Note 4(a)	$	310		$	1,082
Amortization of intangible assets – Note 4(b)		(564	)		(1,890	)
Depreciation of plant, property and equipment – Note 4(c)		(225	)		(1,300	)
Market rent expense – Note 4(f)		16			66

Adjustment to provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	(463	)	$	(2,042	)

Certain merger-related transaction costs have been expensed in Wright’s and Tornier’s historical statements of operations. As merger-related transaction costs are non-recurring items, they have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations. An adjustment totaling $2.5 million has been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations to remove merger-related transaction costs of $2.0 million that were expensed by Wright and $0.5 million that were expensed by Tornier during the three months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. An adjustment totaling $12.4 million has been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations to remove merger- related transaction costs of $8.7 million that were expensed by Wright and $3.6 million that were expensed by Tornier during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, respectively.

f)	To record pro forma rent expense associated with favorable and unfavorable leasehold interests (see Note 3(m)).

5. Pro Forma Reclassification Adjustments

Certain reclassifications have been made to Tornier’s historical statements of operations to conform to Wright’s presentation. These adjustments reclassify Tornier’s special charges to selling, general, and administrative expense, research and development expense and other (income) expense, net. Special charges reclassified to selling, general and administrative expense and research and development expense include acquisition, integration and distributor transition costs, restructuring charges and legal settlement expense. Special charges reclassified to other (income) expense, net represent fair value adjustments related to contingent consideration.

6. Earnings Per Share

Pro forma earnings from continuing operations per share for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 have been calculated based on the estimated weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding on a pro forma basis, as described below. The pro forma weighted average shares outstanding have been calculated as if the shares to be issued in the merger had been issued and outstanding as of January 1, 2014, the beginning of fiscal year 2014. For additional information on calculation of merger-related shares, see Notes 3(a), 3(b) and 3(c).

In particular, Wright shareholders are directed to the merger agreement, which is attached as Annex A to this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Recommendation of the Wright Board of Directors

The Wright board of directors recommends that the Wright shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal to adopt the merger agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby. See “ The Merger—Recommendation of the Wright Board of Directors and Wright’s Reasons for the Merger ” beginning on page 78.

178

WRIGHT PROPOSAL NO. 2—ADVISORY VOTE ON SPECIFIED COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS RELATING TO THE MERGER

Advisory Vote on Golden Parachute Compensation

In accordance with Section 14A(b) of the Exchange Act, Wright is providing its shareholders with the opportunity to cast a non-binding, advisory vote at the Wright special meeting to approve the compensation that may be paid or become payable to Wright’s named executive officers in connection with the merger and the agreements and understandings pursuant to which such compensation may be paid or become payable in connection with the merger, as disclosed under “ The Merger—Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger—Quantification of Payments to Wright’s Named Executive Officers. ” This non-binding advisory proposal relates only to the already existing contractual obligations of Wright that may result in a payment to Wright’s named executive officers in connection with the consummation of the merger (regardless of the timing of the payment) and does not relate to any new compensation or other arrangements in connection with or following the merger.

As required by those rules, Wright is asking its shareholders to vote on the adoption of the following resolution on a non-binding, advisory basis:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation that may be paid or become payable to Wright’s named executive officers in connection with the merger, as disclosed under “ The Merger—Interests of Wright’s Directors and Officers in the Merger—Quantification of Payments to Wright’s Named Executive Officers ” including the associated narrative discussion, and the agreements and arrangements pursuant to which such compensation may be paid or become payable, are hereby APPROVED.”

The vote on executive compensation payable in connection with the merger is a vote separate and apart from the vote to approve the merger. Accordingly, you may vote to approve the compensation that may be paid or become payable to Wright’s named executive officers in connection with the merger and vote not to approve the merger and vice versa. Because the vote is advisory in nature only, it will not be binding on Wright or the combined company. Accordingly, if the merger is consummated, Wright will be contractually obligated to pay the compensation, subject only to the conditions applicable thereto, regardless of the outcome of the advisory vote.

The merger is not conditioned on approval of this proposal.

Recommendation of the Wright Board of Directors

The Wright board of directors recommends that Wright shareholders vote “ FOR ” the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the specified compensatory arrangements between Wright and its named executive officers relating to the merger.

Background

As described under “ The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger ,” the obligations of Wright to complete the merger are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as of the closing date, including the condition that all required action will have been taken so that as of the effective time of the merger, the articles of association of Tornier will be amended to change the company name of Tornier to “Wright Medical Group N.V.”

Article 2.1 of Tornier’s articles of association currently provides that the name of the company is “Tornier N.V.” On October 26, 2014, the Tornier board of directors unanimously adopted a resolution approving, and recommending that Tornier shareholders resolve to approve an amendment to Article 2.1 of Tornier’s articles of association to change the name of the company to “Wright Medical Group N.V.”

The Tornier board of directors believes that it is in the best interests of Tornier and the Tornier shareholders to approve this amendment to Tornier’s articles of association in order to facilitate Tornier’s proposed merger with Wright and to satisfy the related condition to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger. A copy of the deed of amendment to the articles of association of Tornier incorporating this amendment and the proposed amendment described under “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 4—Amendment to Articles of Association to Increase Authorized Capital and Ordinary Shares ” is attached as Annex F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

By approving this proposal, Tornier shareholders will be authorizing each managing director of Tornier, as well as each civil-law notary, prospective civil-law notary and notarial paralegal of Stibbe in Amsterdam, to sign the deed of amendment to the articles of association of Tornier incorporating this amendment and to undertake all other activities the authorized person deems necessary or useful in connection with this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association and the filing of the deed of amendment.

Text of the Proposed Amendment

This proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association would amend Article 2.1 so that it would state in its entirety as follows:

“The name of the company is: Wright Medical Group N.V.”

Purpose of the Proposed Amendment

As mentioned above, the purpose of this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association is to facilitate the merger with Wright and to satisfy the related condition to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger.

The change in the company name to “Wright Medical Group N.V.” will reflect the fact that although the merger is structured as a merger of equals transaction, Wright will be considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes; and therefore, Wright’s historical results of operations will replace Tornier’s historical results of operations for all periods prior to the merger.

Timing of the Proposed Amendment

If the Tornier shareholders resolve to approve this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association, this proposed amendment will become effective as of the effective time of the merger pursuant to the execution of a deed of amendment to the articles of association before a civil-law notary in the Netherlands. If this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association is not approved by the Tornier shareholders, then Article 2.1 of Tornier’s current articles of association will remain unchanged and the company name will remain Tornier N.V.

183

Recommendation of the Tornier Board of Directors

The Tornier board of directors recommends that Tornier shareholders vote “ FOR ” the approval of the proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association to change the company name to “Wright Medical Group N.V.”

TORNIER VOTING PROPOSAL NO. 4—AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION TO

INCREASE AUTHORIZED CAPITAL AND ORDINARY SHARES

Background

As described under “ The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger ,” the obligations of Wright to complete the merger are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as of the closing date, including the condition that all required action will have been taken so that as of the effective time of the merger, the articles of association of Tornier will be amended to increase Tornier’s authorized capital to €9,600,000 and its authorized number of Tornier ordinary shares to 320 million.

Article 4.1 of Tornier’s articles of association currently provides that Tornier’s authorized capital amounts to €5,250,000 and is divided into 175 million ordinary shares, with a par value €0.03 per share. On October 26, 2014, the Tornier board of directors unanimously adopted a resolution approving, and recommending that Tornier shareholders resolve to approve an amendment to Article 4.1 of Tornier’s articles of association to increase Tornier’s authorized capital to €9,600,000, divided into 320 million ordinary shares, with a par value €0.03 per share.

The Tornier board of directors believes that it is in the best interests of Tornier and the Tornier shareholders to approve this amendment to Tornier’s articles of association in order to facilitate Tornier’s proposed merger with Wright and to satisfy the related condition to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger. A copy of the deed of amendment to the articles of association of Tornier incorporating this amendment and the proposed amendment described under “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 3—Amendment to Articles of Association to Change Company Name ” is attached as Annex F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

Text of the Proposed Amendment

This proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association would amend Article 4.1 so that it would state in its entirety as follows:

“The company’s authorized capital amounts to nine million six hundred thousand euros (EUR 9,600,000) and is divided into three hundred and twenty million (320,000,000) ordinary shares, each share with a par value of three Euro cents (EUR 0.03).”

Purpose of the Proposed Amendment

The increase in Tornier’s authorized capital and total number of Tornier ordinary shares that Tornier will be authorized to issue will provide the combined company greater flexibility immediately after the merger in considering and planning for potential future corporate needs. As of May 5, 2015, there were 48,996,404 Tornier ordinary shares outstanding. In addition, approximately 5,190,224 Tornier ordinary shares have been reserved for future issuance under Tornier’s equity compensation plans. Accordingly, approximately 1,974,056 of the total number of Tornier ordinary shares currently authorized remain available for issuance or reservation for issuance. Tornier expects to issue approximately 53.0 million Tornier ordinary shares in connection with the merger, based

185

on the number of Wright shares outstanding as of May 5, 2015, and expects to need an additional approximately 4,506,974 Tornier ordinary shares to be reserved for future issuance in connection with Wright equity-based awards that will be assumed by Tornier in connection with the merger.

The Tornier board of directors also believes that the additional authorized Tornier ordinary shares will provide Tornier with the necessary flexibility to issue shares in the future for various corporate purposes and enable Tornier to take timely advantage of market conditions and opportunities without the delay and expense associated with convening an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, except as otherwise required by the listing rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market. These corporate purposes, include, but are not limited to, grants and awards under equity compensation plans; capital-raising or financing transactions; potential strategic transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, and other business combinations; stock dividends; and other general corporate purpose transactions. The Tornier board of directors does not have any current plans, commitments, arrangements, understandings or agreements to issue any currently authorized and unissued Tornier ordinary shares or any of the additional Tornier ordinary shares that would be authorized by the deed of amendment to Tornier’s articles of association, other than in connection with the proposed merger with Wright and except for Tornier ordinary shares that have been reserved for future issuance under Tornier’s equity compensation plans and Wright’s equity-based awards to be assumed in connection with the merger.

Potential Effects of the Proposed Amendment

Future issuances of Tornier ordinary shares or securities convertible into Tornier ordinary shares could have a dilutive effect on Tornier’s earnings per share, book value per share and the voting interest and power of current Tornier shareholders. In addition, although the Tornier board of directors has not proposed the increase in Tornier’s capital and the total number of Tornier ordinary shares that Tornier is authorized to issue with the intent of using the additional shares to prevent or discourage any actual or threatened takeover of Tornier, under certain circumstances, such shares could have an anti-takeover effect. The additional Tornier ordinary shares could be issued, subject to a resolution thereto by the relevant authorized corporate body of Tornier, to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of Tornier or could be issued to persons allied with the Tornier board of directors or Tornier’s management and thereby having the effect of making it more difficult to remove directors or members of Tornier’s management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to effect such a removal. The additional Tornier ordinary shares also could be issued in private placements and without shareholder approval or further action by the Tornier shareholders, subject to the delegation of the Tornier board of directors by the general meeting of Tornier shareholders to issue shares, and subject further to applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange on which Tornier ordinary shares are then listed. Accordingly, although the approval of this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association will facilitate the merger between Wright and Tornier, if this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association is approved, the additional authorized Tornier ordinary shares reflected therein may render more difficult or discourage a future merger, tender offer or proxy contest, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of Tornier ordinary shares, or the replacement or removal of the Tornier board of directors or Tornier’s management.

SEC rules require disclosure of charter and bylaw provisions that could have an anti-takeover effect. The following other provisions of Tornier’s articles of association may have the anti-takeover effect of preventing, discouraging or delaying any change in the control of Tornier: (i) the Tornier board of directors is classified into three classes, each of which serves for three years, with one class being elected each year, although this provision is being eliminated effective as of the completion of the merger with the appointment of the two executive directors and eight non-executive directors for one-year terms until the next annual general meeting of shareholders; and (ii) the removal of a member of the Tornier board of directors must be approved by two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting at which more than half of Tornier’s issued capital is represented, if such removal is not pursuant to a proposal by the Tornier board of directors.

186

Timing of the Proposed Amendment

If the Tornier shareholders resolve to approve this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association, this proposed amendment will become effective as of the effective time of the merger pursuant to the execution of a deed of amendment to the articles of association before a civil-law notary in the Netherlands. If this proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association is not approved by the Tornier shareholders, then Article 4.1 of Tornier’s current articles of association will remain unchanged and Tornier’s authorized capital will continue to be €5,250,000 divided into 175 million ordinary shares, with a par value €0.03 per share.

Recommendation of the Tornier Board of Directors

The Tornier board of directors recommends that Tornier shareholders vote “ FOR ” the approval of the proposed amendment to Tornier’s articles of association to increase the authorized capital to €9,600,000 and the number of authorized Tornier ordinary shares to 320 million.

187

TORNIER VOTING PROPOSAL NO. 5—GRANT DISCHARGE TO CERTAIN TORNIER

DIRECTORS RESIGNING EFFECTIVE AS OF EFFECTIVE TIME OF MERGER

Introduction

Two of Tornier’s current non-executive directors, Alain Tornier and Richard B. Emmitt, will resign as non-executive directors of Tornier effective as of the effective time of the merger.

This voting proposal entails the final discharge to each of Alain Tornier and Richard B. Emmitt for his duties as a non-executive director of the Tornier board of directors.

The proposed resolution to grant discharge to each of Alain Tornier and Richard B. Emmitt as non-executive directors is considered under Dutch law as separate voting items.

Recommendation of the Tornier Board of Directors

TORNIER VOTING PROPOSAL NO. 6—APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS

Current Tornier Board Structure and Directors

Tornier maintains a one-tier board of directors. Tornier’s articles of association provide that the number of members of the Tornier board of directors will be determined by the Tornier board of directors, provided that the Tornier board of directors shall be comprised of at least one executive director and two non-executive directors. An executive director is responsible for the policy and day-to-day management of Tornier and the non-executive directors primarily supervise and provide guidance to the executive director or directors.

The Tornier board of directors and shareholders have approved that the current Tornier board of directors be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each director serving a three-year term and one class being elected at each year’s annual general meeting of shareholders. At each annual general meeting of shareholders, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at such meeting are elected to serve for three-year terms or until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

The Tornier board of directors has set the current number of directors at seven, consisting of one executive director and six non-executive directors. Tornier’s current directors and their respective classes and terms are set forth below.


Term ending at 2015 annual general meeting	Term ending at 2016 annual general meeting	Term ending at 2017 annual general meeting
Sean D. Carney	David H. Mowry	Alain Tornier
Richard B. Emmitt	Kevin C. O’Boyle Richard F. Wallman	Elizabeth H. Weatherman

Board Designation Rights

Tornier and certain of its shareholders, including TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., TMG Partners U.S. LLC, Vertical Fund I, L.P., Vertical Fund II, L.P., KCH Stockholm AB and Alain Tornier, are parties to a securityholders’ agreement, which includes terms relating to the composition of the Tornier board of directors. Under director nomination provisions of this agreement, TMG has the right to designate three directors to be nominated to the Tornier board of directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, two directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 10% but less than 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and one director for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 5% but less than 10% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, and Tornier agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the TMG designees to be elected. As of May 5, 2015, TMG beneficially owned 21.9% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares. Mr. Carney and Ms. Weatherman are the current designees of TMG under the securityholders’ agreement. Upon completion of the merger, it is anticipated that TMG will beneficially own approximately 10.5% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and that Mr. Carney and Ms. Weatherman will continue to be designees of TMG under the securityholders’ agreement. In the event any director designated by TMG is unable to serve or is removed or withdraws from the Tornier board of directors, Tornier will designate a replacement for such director, at the direction of TMG.

Proposed Tornier Board Structure and Directors

As described under “ The Merger Agreement—Governance of the Combined Company After the Merger ,” the Tornier board of directors has agreed in the merger agreement with Wright to take all necessary corporate action, to the extent within its power and authority, to cause the following individuals to be nominated to the Tornier board of directors effective as of the effective time of the merger and subject to such individuals’ ability and willingness to serve:

•

five directors to be nominated by the Wright board of directors, one of whom will be Robert J. Palmisano;

189

•

five directors to be nominated by the Tornier board of directors, one of whom will be David H. Mowry, and with any nominees by rights held by TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A. or any of its affiliates pursuant to the securityholders’ agreement between Tornier and the shareholders signatory thereto, dated July 18, 2006, as amended, to be included in the five directors nominated by the Tornier board of directors; and

•

the non-executive chairman of the Tornier board of directors to be nominated by the Tornier board of directors.

In the event that any of these nominees to the Tornier board of directors becomes unable or unwilling to serve as of the effective time of the merger, a replacement for such nominee will be determined according to these procedures.

Under Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, the Tornier board of directors has the right to make binding nominations for open positions on the Tornier board of directors. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed unless the binding nature of the nominations by the board of directors were set aside. The binding nature of nominations by the Tornier board of directors may be overridden by a vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary general meeting of Tornier shareholders if such two-thirds vote constitutes more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital, in which event a new meeting would be called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors would require a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital. At an annual or extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, votes in respect of the appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors can only be cast for candidates named in the agenda of the meeting or the explanatory notes thereto.

On October 26, 2014, the Tornier board of directors set the number of directors at ten, consisting of two executive directors and eight non-executive directors, effective as of the effective time of the merger. Also on October 26, 2014, the Tornier board of directors nominated Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry to serve as executive officers and on December 17, 2014, the Tornier board of directors nominated Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman to serve as non-executive officers, in each case, until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

Accordingly, at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, Tornier shareholders will be asked to appoint Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry to fill the two open executive director positions and will be asked to appoint the following eight individuals to fill the eight open non-executive director positions: Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman. In each case, these directors would be appointed effective as of the effective time of the merger to serve until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Effective as of the effective time of the merger and the appointment of these ten directors, the combined company will not have a classified or staggered board of directors.

Mr. Miclot’s substantial experience as a chief executive officer of several medical device companies, his deep knowledge of the medical device industry and his experience as a director of Wright have led the Tornier board of directors to the conclusion that he should serve as a director of the board of directors of the combined company after completion of the merger.

Amy S. Paul , age 63, is a current member of the Wright board of directors and has served as a director of Wright since 2008. Ms. Paul is one of Wright’s five designees to the board of directors of the combined company. Ms. Paul retired in 2008 following a 26-year career with C.R. Bard, Inc., a medical device company, most recently serving as the Group Vice President-International since 2003. She served in various positions at C.R. Bard, Inc. from 1982 to 2003, including President of Bard Access Systems, Inc., President of Bard Endoscopic Technologies, Vice President and Business Manager of Bard Ventures, Vice President of Marketing of Bard Cardiopulmonary Division, Marketing Manager for Davol Inc., and Senior Product Manager for Davol Inc.

Ms. Paul’s over three decades of experience in the medical device industry, including having served in various executive roles with responsibilities that include international and divisional operations as well as marketing and sales functions, and her experience as a director of Wright and another public company in the healthcare industry have led the Tornier board of directors to the conclusion that she should serve as a director of the board of directors of the combined company after completion of the merger.

Anderson Graduate Business School. Mr. O’Boyle’s executive experience in the healthcare industry, his experience with companies during their transition from being privately held to publicly held and his financial and accounting expertise have led the Tornier board of directors to the conclusion that Mr. O’Boyle should serve as a director of the combined company after completion of the merger.

David D. Stevens , age 61, is a current member of the Wright board of directors and has served as a director of Wright since 2004. Mr. Stevens is one of Wright’s five designees to the board of directors of the combined

Mr. Steven’s extensive experience serving as a chief executive officer, including as interim chief executive officer of Wright from May 2011 until September 2011, his experience as a director of Wright since 2004 and close familiarity with Wright’s business have led the Tornier board of directors to the conclusion that he should serve as a director of the board of directors of the combined company after completion of the merger.

Richard F. Wallman , age 64, is a current member of the Tornier board of directors and has served as a director of Tornier since December 2008.

Mr. Wallman’s prior public company experience, including as Chief Financial Officer of Honeywell and his public company director experience, and his financial experience and expertise, have led the Tornier board of directors to the conclusion that he should serve as a director of the combined company after completion of the merger.

Elizabeth H. Weatherman , age 55, is a current member of the Tornier board of directors and has served as a director of Tornier since July 2006. Ms. Weatherman is one of Tornier’s five designees to the board of directors of the combined company.

TORNIER VOTING PROPOSAL NO. 7—WRIGHT MEDICAL GROUP N.V. AMENDED AND

RESTATED 2010 INCENTIVE PLAN

Background

As described under “ The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger ,” the obligations of Wright to complete the merger are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as of the closing date, including the condition that Tornier will have increased the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under Tornier’s equity compensation plan if and to the extent requested by Wright.

The Tornier N.V. 2010 incentive plan (the “2010 plan” or the “plan”) was initially approved by the Tornier shareholders at Tornier’s annual general meeting of shareholders on August 26, 2010. On June 27, 2012, the Tornier shareholders approved an amendment to the plan to increase the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan by 2,700,000 shares. On December 17, 2014, in connection with the merger, the Tornier board of directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, approved an amended and restated version of the plan that incorporates several proposed amendments, including, among others, an amendment to change the name of the plan to the “Wright Medical Group N.V. Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Plan.” On April 28, 2015, the Tornier board of directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, approved a further amended and restated version of the Wright Medical Group N.V. Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Plan (the “amended and restated 2010 plan”), which incorporates additional proposed amendments to increase the number of ordinary shares of the combined company available for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan by 5,500,000 shares and to provide for the issuance of awards under the plan that qualify for the “performance based compensation” exception to Code Section 162(m). The amended and restated 2010 plan is subject to the approval of Tornier shareholders at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting, and if approved by Tornier shareholders, will be subject to and effective as of the effective time of the merger. If Tornier shareholders do not approve the amended and restated 2010 plan, the 2010 plan, as then currently in effect, will continue as if the Tornier board of directors had not approved the amendments to the amended and restated 2010 plan that were made on December 17, 2014 and April 28, 2015.

Reasons Why Tornier Shareholders Should Vote in Favor of the Amended and Restated 2010 Plan

The Tornier board of directors recommends a vote for the approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan because the Tornier board of directors believes the amended and restated 2010 plan is in the best interests of Tornier and Tornier shareholders for the following reasons:

•

Satisfies one of the conditions to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger . As mentioned above, one of the conditions to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger is that Tornier will have increased the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under Tornier’s equity compensation plan. Accordingly, one of the reasons that the Tornier board of directors recommends a vote for the approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan and believes that it is in the best interests of Tornier and Tornier shareholders to approve the amended and restated 2010 plan is that it will facilitate the proposed merger with Wright and satisfy the related condition to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger.

•

Retains and attracts talent . Talented, motivated and effective directors, executives and employees will be essential to executing the combined company’s business strategies. Equity-based and cash incentive compensation has been an important component of total compensation at Tornier and Wright for many years because such compensation enables companies to effectively retain and recruit executives and other employees while encouraging them to act and think like owners of a company. If the amended and restated 2010 plan is approved, Tornier believes that the combined company will be able to offer competitive equity-based incentive compensation packages to both retain Tornier’s and Wright’s best performers and attract new talent. Accordingly, the Tornier board of directors believes that approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan, including the proposed increase in the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan, is important to the success of the combined company following the merger.

197

•

Aligns director, employee and shareholder interests . Tornier believes that its equity-based compensation programs help align the interests of its directors, executive officers and other key employees with Tornier shareholders. Tornier believes that its long-term equity-based incentives help promote long-term retention of its employees and encourage significant ownership of Tornier ordinary shares. If the amended and restated 2010 plan is approved, the combined company will be able to maintain its means of aligning the interests of its directors, executive officers and other key employees with the interests of its shareholders after the merger.

•

Avoids disruption in compensation programs . The approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan by Tornier shareholders is critical because there are an insufficient number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the 2010 plan to cover anticipated equity grants by the combined company after the merger. If the amended and restated 2010 plan is approved, the combined company will not have to restructure its existing compensation programs for reasons that are not directly related to the achievement of its financial and other business objectives. To remain competitive without equity-based compensation arrangements, it likely would be necessary as a business matter to replace components of compensation previously awarded in equity with cash or with other forms of compensation that may not necessarily align director, executive officer and employee interests with those of the combined company’s shareholders as well as equity-based awards do. Additionally, replacing equity with cash would increase cash compensation expense and use cash that would be better utilized toward other strategic purposes, such as research and development of new products, improvements in the quality and performance of existing products and strategic acquisitions.

•

Protects shareholder interests and embraces sound equity-based compensation practices . As described in more detail below under “— Summary of Sound Governance Features of the Amended and Restated 2010 Plan ,” the amended and restated 2010 plan includes a number of features that are consistent with the interests of Tornier shareholders and sound corporate governance practices.

•

Permits grants of tax-efficient awards . Tornier shareholder approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan would give the combined company greater flexibility to grant tax-efficient stock-based incentive awards under the plan. Code Section 162(m) generally provides that compensation provided to a publicly held corporation’s chief executive officer or any of its three most highly paid named executive officers (other than its chief executive officer or chief financial officer) is not deductible by the corporation for U.S. income tax purposes for any taxable year to the extent it exceeds $1 million. This limitation does not apply to compensation that qualifies as exempt performance-based compensation by meeting certain requirements under Code Section 162(m), including the requirement that the material terms, including those of the related performance goals, be disclosed to and approved by stockholders not less frequently than every five years. The material terms of the amended and restated 2010 plan are described below. Tornier shareholders are being asked to approve, among other material terms, a set of business criteria on which performance goals may be based for performance awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan. Although shareholder approval is one of the requirements for exemption under Code Section 162(m), even with shareholder approval there can be no guarantee that compensation will be treated as exempt performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m). Furthermore, the compensation committee will continue to have authority to (and, in its sole discretion, may) provide compensation that is not exempt from the limits on deductibility under Code Section 162(m).

Summary of Sound Governance Features of the Amended and Restated 2010 Plan

The Tornier board of directors believes that the amended and restated 2010 plan contains several features that are consistent with the interests of Tornier shareholders and sound corporate governance practices, including the following:

•

No automatic share replenishment or “evergreen” provision . The number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan is fixed and will not adjust based upon the number of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares. If Tornier shareholders approve the amended and

198

restated 2010 plan, Tornier currently expects the number of shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan will last between two to three years, at which time the combined company expects to ask its shareholders to approve an additional share authorization.

•

Will not be excessively dilutive to shareholders . As described in more detail below under “— Background for Shares Authorized for Issuance Under the Amended and Restated 2010 Plan ,” Tornier believes that the number of Tornier ordinary shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan is appropriate and not excessively dilutive to Tornier shareholders.

•

No liberal share counting or “recycling” of shares from exercised stock options or SARs . Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations on awards or to pay the exercise price of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) or other awards and any shares not issued or delivered as a result of a “net exercise” of a stock option will not become available for issuance as future award grants under the amended and restated 2010 plan. In addition, shares purchased by Tornier on the open market using proceeds from the exercise of stock options or other awards will not become available for issuance as future award grants under the amended and restated 2010 plan. The full number of shares subject to a SAR that is settled by the issuance of shares will be counted against the shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan, regardless of the number of shares actually issued upon settlement of the SAR.

•

Limits on non-employee director awards and other awards . The maximum aggregate number of shares subject to non-employee director awards to any one non-employee director in any one fiscal year may not exceed 100,000 shares; provided that such limit will not apply to any election by a non-employee director to receive shares in lieu of cash retainers and meeting fees. The amended and restated 2010 plan also contains other per participant per fiscal year limitations on awards.

•

No repricing of stock options or SARs . The amended and restated 2010 Plan prohibits the repricing of outstanding stock options or SARs without shareholder approval, except in connection with certain corporate transactions involving Tornier. Repricing is defined broadly to include amending the terms of outstanding stock options or SARs to reduce the exercise price of such outstanding stock options or SARs, cancelling outstanding stock options or SARs in exchange for stock options or SARs with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original stock options or SARs and cancelling outstanding stock options or SARs with an exercise price above the current stock price in exchange for cash or other securities.

•

No reload stock options or SARs . Reload stock options and SARs are not authorized under the amended and restated 2010 plan. Reload stock options and SARs are awards that automatically provide for an additional grant of awards of the same type upon the exercise of the award.

•

No discounted stock options and SARs . The amended and restated 2010 plan prohibits granting stock options and SARs with exercise prices lower than the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share on the grant date, except in connection with certain mergers, consolidations, acquisitions of property or stock, reorganizations or other similar transactions.

•

Stock options and SARs are not entitled to dividend equivalent rights . Stock option and SAR award holders have no rights as Tornier shareholders with respect to the Tornier ordinary shares underlying their awards until their stock options or SARs are exercised or vested and shares are issued. As a result, stock options and SARs under the amended and restated 2010 plan have no dividend equivalent rights associated with them.

•

Awards subject to forfeiture or “clawback” . The amended and restated 2010 plan contains “clawback” provisions, which provide that if a participant is determined by the committee to have taken action that would constitute “cause” or an “adverse action,” as those terms are defined in the amended and restated 2010 plan, during or within one year after the termination of the participant’s employment or other service, all rights of the participant under the plan and any agreements evidencing an award then held by the participant will terminate and be forfeited and the committee may require the participant to surrender and return to Tornier any shares received, and/or to disgorge any profits or any other

199

economic value made or realized by the participant in connection with any awards or any shares issued upon the exercise or vesting of any awards during or within one year after the termination of the participant’s employment or other service.

•

No liberal change in control definition. The change in control definition in the amended and restated 2010 plan is not a “liberal” definition and, for example, would not be activated merely upon shareholder approval of a transaction. A change in control must actually occur in order for the change in control provisions in the amended and restated 2010 plan to be triggered.

•

No tax gross-ups . The amended and restated 2010 plan does not provide for any tax gross-ups.

•

No transferability . Awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan may not be transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution unless approved by the committee administering the amended and restated 2010 plan.

•

Material amendments require shareholder approval . Consistent with the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, the amended and restated 2010 plan requires shareholder approval of material revisions to the amended and restated 2010 plan. In addition, certain other amendments to the amended and restated 2010 plan require shareholder approval.

Background for Shares Authorized for Issuance under the Amended and Restated 2010 Plan

If the amended and restated 2010 plan is approved, the maximum number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan will be equal to the sum of (i) 8,200,000, (ii) 1,199,296, the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for grant under Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of February 2, 2011 (not including issued or outstanding shares granted pursuant to options under Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of such date) and (iii) the number of Tornier ordinary shares forfeited upon the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture, cash settlement or other termination following February 2, 2011 of an option outstanding as of February 2, 2011 under Tornier’s prior stock option plan, up to a maximum of 632,854 Tornier ordinary shares as of May 5, 2015. In connection with the merger, options on approximately 4,583,449 additional ordinary shares of the combined company will be issued in substitution for Wright stock options pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement; however, the ordinary shares underlying those stock options will not decrease the number of ordinary shares issuable under the amended and restated 2010 plan and are not subject to this shareholder vote.

In setting the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan, the Tornier board of directors and compensation committee considered a number of factors, which are discussed further below, including:

•

Number of shares requested by Wright;

•

Shares available and total outstanding equity-based awards under the 2010 plan and Tornier’s prior stock option plan, and how long the shares available are expected to last;

•

Historical equity award granting practices, including Tornier’s three-year average share usage rate (commonly referred to as “burn rate”); and

•

Potential dilution and overhang.

Number of Shares Requested by Wright . As mentioned above, one of conditions to Wright’s obligations to complete the merger is that Tornier will have increased the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under Tornier’s equity compensation plan by a number of shares as requested by Wright. Accordingly, one of the primary factors considered by the Tornier board of directors and compensation committee in setting the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan was the number of shares requested by Wright.

Shares Available and Outstanding Equity Awards under the 2010 Plan and Prior Stock Option Plan . While the use of long-term incentives, in the form of equity awards, is an important part of Tornier’s compensation program, Tornier is mindful of its responsibility to Tornier shareholders to exercise judgment in the granting of

200

equity awards. In setting the number of shares available for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan, the Tornier board of directors and compensation committee also considered shares available and total outstanding equity awards under the 2010 plan and Tornier’s prior stock option plan, and how long the shares available under the amended and restated 2010 plan are expected to last. Under the heading “ —Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans ” on page 212, as required by SEC rules, Tornier provides information about Tornier ordinary shares that may be issued under its equity compensation plans as of December 28, 2014. To facilitate the approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan, set forth below is certain additional information as May 5, 2015, the latest practicable date prior to this filing, for the Tornier extraordinary general meeting.

As of May 5, 2015, Tornier had 48,996,404 Tornier ordinary shares issued and outstanding. The market value of one Tornier ordinary share on May 5, 2015, as determined by reference to the closing price of Tornier ordinary shares, as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, was $24.74.

As described in more detail in the table below, under the 2010 plan (and without giving effect to approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan) and Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of May 5, 2015:

•

1,924,201 Tornier ordinary shares remained available for issuance under the 2010 plan.

•

2,599,026 stock options (vested and unvested) were outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $20.34 per share and a weighted average remaining term of 6.95 years.

•

617,142 Tornier ordinary shares underlying full value awards (such as restricted stock units) were outstanding.

Historical Equity Award Granting Practices . In setting the number of Tornier ordinary shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan, the Tornier board of directors and compensation committee also considered the historical number of equity awards granted under the 2010 plan in the past three full fiscal years. The following table sets forth information regarding awards granted and earned, and the annual burn rate for each of the last three fiscal years.


	Fiscal 2014			Fiscal 2013			Fiscal 2012
Stock options granted		522,101			643,010			626,339
Restricted stock units awarded		364,026			322,274			305,189
Weighted average basic ordinary shares outstanding during fiscal year		48,860,358			45,826,000			40,064,000
Burn rate		1.8	%		2.1	%		2.3	%

The Tornier board of directors and compensation committee also considered Tornier’s three-year average burn rate (fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2014) of approximately 2.1%, which is lower than the industry thresholds established by certain major proxy advisory firms.

Based on historical granting practices and the recent trading price of Tornier ordinary shares, the amended and restated 2010 plan is expected to cover awards for approximately two to three years.

Potential Dilution and Overhang . In setting the number of Tornier ordinary shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan, the Tornier board of directors and compensation committee also

201

considered the potential dilution and overhang that would result by approval of the amended and restated 2010 plan, including the policies of certain institutional investors and major proxy advisory firms.

Potential dilution is calculated as shown below:

Potential dilution = Total outstanding award shares divided by total number of outstanding shares + total outstanding award shares

Total outstanding award shares include shares to be issued on exercise or settlement of outstanding equity awards.

Potential overhang is calculated as shown below:

Potential overhang = Total potential award shares divided by total number of outstanding shares + total outstanding award shares

Total potential award shares include shares underlying equity awards that may be made under the amended and restated 2010 plan plus total outstanding award shares.

As of May 5, 2015, potential dilution was 6% and potential overhang was 9%. If the amended and restated 2010 plan is approved, as of immediately following the merger, potential dilution will be 6% and potential overhang will be 18%.

Summary of the Amended and Restated 2010 Plan

The material features of the amended and restated 2010 plan are described below. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the amended and restated 2010 plan, a copy of which is attached to this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Annex G.

Purpose . The purpose of the amended and restated 2010 plan is to promote the interests of Tornier and its affiliates by authorizing the Tornier board of directors or the compensation committee or subcommittee thereof administering the plan to grant incentive awards to eligible employees, non-employee directors and consultants in order to (i) attract and retain such individuals, (ii) provide an additional incentive to such individuals to work to increase the value of Tornier ordinary shares, and (iii) provide such individuals with a stake in the future of Tornier that corresponds with the stake of Tornier shareholders.

Eligibility . Employees and consultants of Tornier and its affiliates and non-employee directors of Tornier are eligible for the grant of awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan. Consultants eligible to participate in the amended and restated 2010 plan are those persons engaged to provide consulting or advisory services to Tornier or its affiliates that (i) are not in connection with the offer and sale of Tornier’s securities in a capital raising transaction and (ii) do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for Tornier’s securities. A non-employee director is any member of the Tornier board of directors who is not an employee of Tornier or an affiliate.

As of May 5, 2015, approximately 353 individuals were eligible to receive awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan, including approximately 347 employees and six non-employee directors. Although not expected to be indicative of future grants under the amended and restated 2010 plan, approximately 153 of these individuals have been granted stock options or stock grants in the form of restricted stock units under the 2010 plan. Following the merger, approximately 224 individuals who are currently employees or other service providers to Wright are expected to become eligible to participate in the amended and restated 2010 plan.

Administration . The amended and restated 2010 plan will continue to be administered by the Tornier board of directors, the compensation committee or a subcommittee thereof. All members of the compensation committee and/or such subcommittee will be (i) “non-employee directors” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act and (ii) “independent directors” under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Global

Select Market (or applicable exchange or market on which the Tornier ordinary shares may be traded or quoted). The Tornier board of directors, upon the recommendation of the compensation committee, grants all awards under the 2010 plan. Tornier expects that the Tornier board of directors or the compensation committee and/or such a subcommittee thereof comprised entirely of non-employee directors will continue to administer the amended and restated 2010 plan. The Tornier board of directors, the compensation committee or subcommittee, as appropriate, administering the plan is referred to as the “committee.” Under the amended and restated 2010 plan, the committee has the authority to administer and interpret the amended and restated 2010 plan and to take such action in the administration and operation of the plan as the committee deems equitable under the circumstances, which will be binding on Tornier, each affected participant and each other person directly or indirectly affected by such action. The committee is not obligated to treat participants or eligible recipients uniformly, and determinations made under the amended and restated 2010 plan may be made by the committee selectively among participants or eligible recipients, whether or not such participants or eligible recipients are similarly situated. The committee has the authority and discretion to establish the terms, conditions, performance criteria, restrictions and other provisions of awards (subject to the restrictions contained in the amended and restated 2010 plan) granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan. In addition, the committee may establish “subplans” for the purposes of local laws and tax compliance for international employees.

Shares Available for Issuance . If the amended and restated 2010 plan is approved by the Tornier shareholders, the maximum number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan will be equal to the sum of (i) 8,200,000, (ii) 1,199,296, the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for grant under Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of February 2, 2011 (not including issued or outstanding shares granted pursuant to options under Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of such date) and (iii) the number of Tornier ordinary shares forfeited upon the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture, cash settlement or other termination following February 2, 2011 of an option outstanding as of February 2, 2011 under Tornier’s prior stock option plan, up to a maximum of 632,854 Tornier ordinary shares as of May 5, 2015. In addition, awards assumed under the amended and restated 2010 plan in connection with acquisitions (and shares issued under such awards) do not count against the shares reserved for issuance, and shares available under plans assumed in acquisitions will be added to the shares reserved for issuance, consistent with exemptions available under the shareholder approval requirements of the NASDAQ Global Select Market (or other applicable market or exchange on which Tornier ordinary shares may be quoted or traded). In connection with the merger, options on approximately 4,506,974 additional ordinary shares of the combined company will be issued in substitution for Wright stock options pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement; however, the ordinary shares underlying those stock options will not decrease the number of ordinary shares issuable under the amended and restated 2010 plan and are not subject to this shareholder vote.

The maximum aggregate number of shares subject to non-employee director awards to any one non-employee director in any one fiscal year may not exceed 100,000 shares; provided that such limit will not apply to any election by a non-employee director to receive shares in lieu of cash retainers and meeting fees.

The committee may adopt reasonable counting procedures to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double counting (as, for example, in the case of tandem or substitute awards) and make adjustments if the number of Tornier ordinary shares actually delivered differs from the number of shares previously counted in connection with an award. Tornier ordinary shares covered by awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan will be counted as used only to the extent they are actually issued, except that the full number of shares subject to a SAR that is settled by the issuance of shares will be counted against the shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan, regardless of the number of shares actually issued upon settlement of the SAR. Furthermore, any shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations in respect of awards issued under the amended and restated 2010 plan, any shares withheld to pay the exercise price of awards issued under the amended and restated 2010 plan, and any shares not issued or delivered as a result of the “net exercise” of an outstanding option will be counted against the shares authorized for issuance under the amended and restated 2010 plan. Any shares repurchased by Tornier on the open market using the proceeds from the exercise of an award will not increase the number of shares available for future grant of awards. Any shares related to awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan or under Tornier’s prior stock option plan that terminate by expiration,

203

forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise without the issuance of the shares or are settled in cash in lieu of shares, or are exchanged with the committee’s permission, prior to the issuance of shares, for awards not involving shares, will be available again for grant under the amended and restated 2010 plan.

Code Section 162(m) Limits . The following additional limits will apply to awards payable to any participant in any calendar year. With respect to awards of stock options and SARs, no more than 2,000,000 shares may underlie awards issued to any one participant in a calendar year. For cash-based awards, no more than $5,000,000 may be payable to any one participant in a calendar year, and for any other award based on, denominated in or otherwise related to shares, no more than 2,000,000 shares may be issued to any one participant in a calendar year.

Adjustments . The number and kind of securities or other property, including cash, available for issuance or payment under the amended and restated 2010 plan, and Code Section 162(m) and other sublimits on certain types of award grants, will be adjusted by the committee in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of awards under the plan in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, liquidation, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, rights offering, divestiture or extraordinary dividend (including a spin off) or any other similar corporate transactions after the date of grant of any award, or in the event of any change in applicable laws or circumstances that results in or could result in the substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted to, or available for, participants in the amended and restated 2010 plan.

Prohibition on Repricing Stock Options and SARs . Except as set forth under the heading “— Adjustments ,” Tornier may not, without obtaining shareholder approval: (i) amend the terms of outstanding stock options or SARs to reduce the exercise price of such outstanding stock options or SARs, (ii) cancel outstanding stock options or SARs in exchange for stock options or SARs with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original stock options or SARs, or (iii) cancel outstanding stock options or SARs with an exercise price above the current stock price in exchange for cash or other securities.

Stock Options . Under the amended and restated 2010 plan, non-incentive stock options may be granted to eligible employees, non-employee directors and consultants. Incentive stock options, however, which are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, may only be granted to eligible employees of Tornier or a subsidiary or parent of Tornier, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, respectively. The terms and conditions of each option will be determined by the committee, but no option will be granted at an exercise price that is less than the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share as determined on the grant date in accordance with the terms of the amended and restated 2010 plan, other than with respect to the substitution of outstanding awards or obligations to grant future awards as a condition of Tornier or any of its affiliates acquiring, merging, or consolidating with another entity. In addition, if the option is an incentive stock option that is granted to a 10% shareholder of Tornier or any parent or subsidiary of Tornier, the exercise price may be no less than 110% of the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share underlying the option on the grant date. Moreover, no eligible employee may be granted incentive stock options that are first exercisable in any calendar year for Tornier ordinary shares having an aggregate fair market value (determined as of the date that the incentive stock option was granted) that exceeds $100,000. “Fair market value” under the amended and restated 2010 plan means the closing price of a Tornier ordinary share, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market. As of May 5, 2015, the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share was $24.74.

Each stock option will vest and become exercisable at such time or times as determined by the committee. No option may be exercisable more than 10 years from the grant date (or, if the option is an incentive stock option granted to a 10% shareholder of Tornier and its affiliates, more than five years from the grant date). Any events that result in a forfeiture of the grant will be set forth in the grantee’s award agreement.

The exercise price of a stock option will be paid in cash, except that the committee may allow payment to be made (in whole or in part) by a “net exercise” of the option, through a “cashless exercise” procedure effected through an unrelated broker through a sale on the open market, by a combination of such methods, or by any other method approved or accepted by the committee. In the case of a “net exercise” of an option, a participant

204

will receive the number of Tornier ordinary shares underlying the stock options so exercised reduced by the number of Tornier ordinary shares equal to the aggregate exercise price of the stock options divided by the fair market value on the date of exercise. Tornier ordinary shares will no longer be outstanding under an option (and will therefore not thereafter be exercisable) following the exercise of such option to the extent of (i) shares cancelled to pay the exercise price of an option under the “net exercise,” (ii) shares actually delivered to the participant as a result of such exercise and (iii) any shares withheld for purposes of tax withholding.

Each participant in the amended and restated 2010 plan who receives an incentive stock option must notify Tornier in writing immediately after the participant makes a disqualifying disposition of any Tornier ordinary shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option. A disqualifying disposition means any disposition, including any sale, of Tornier ordinary shares acquired upon the exercise of an incentive stock option made within the period that ends either (i) two years after the date the participant was granted the incentive stock option or (ii) one year after the participant acquired the Tornier ordinary shares by exercising the incentive stock option.

Stock Appreciation Rights . Each SAR granted must be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the exercise price, the term, the terms on which the SAR will become exercisable and such other provisions as the committee may determine. The exercise price of a SAR must be at least 100% of the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share on the date of grant, other than with respect to the substitution of outstanding awards or obligations to grant future awards as a condition of Tornier or any of its affiliates acquiring, merging, or consolidating with another entity. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the holder is entitled to receive the excess of the fair market value of the shares for which the right is exercised over the exercise price of the SAR. Payment upon the exercise of a SAR will be in cash, Tornier ordinary shares, or some combination of cash and Tornier ordinary shares as determined by the committee. The committee will fix the term of each SAR, but SARs granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan will not be exercisable more than 10 years after the date the SAR is granted.

Stock Grants and Stock Unit Grants . Stock grants are grants that are designed to result in the issuance of Tornier ordinary shares to the eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant to whom the grants are made. Stock grants are commonly referred to as restricted stock grants or restricted stock unit grants, depending upon whether the Tornier ordinary shares underlying the grant are issued on the date of grant or not until after the date of vesting. Stock unit grants are awards designed to result in cash payments to the eligible employees, non-employee directors and consultants to whom such grants are made based on the fair market value of the Tornier ordinary shares underlying the grant. Each stock grant and stock unit grant must be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the conditions, if any, under which Tornier ordinary shares shall be issued under the stock grant or cash shall be paid under the stock unit grant and the conditions under which the participant’s interest in any Tornier ordinary shares that have been issued will become non-forfeitable. Stock grants and stock unit grants may be made by the committee subject to such terms and conditions, if any, as the committee acting in its sole discretion deems appropriate. The committee, in its discretion, may provide that the rights of an eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant in a stock grant or stock unit grant will be forfeitable unless certain conditions are satisfied. These conditions may include, for example, a requirement that the eligible employee continue employment or the non-employee director or consultant continue service with Tornier or a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Tornier for a specified period or that Tornier or the eligible employee achieve stated performance goals or other objectives. In addition to any other restrictions in the grantees award agreement, until such time as the Tornier ordinary shares underlying a stock grant have vested, the grantee is not allowed to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber the Tornier ordinary shares.

Cash-Based Awards . Cash-based awards may be granted to participants in such amounts and upon such terms as the committee may determine. The terms and conditions applicable to cash-based awards will be evidenced by an award agreement with the grantee. Each cash-based award will specify a payment amount or payment range as determined by the committee. If the cash-based awards are subject to performance goals, the number and/or value of cash-based awards that will be paid out to the participant will depend on the extent to which the performance goals and any other non-performance terms are met.

Code Section 162(m) Awards . With respect to awards that the committee determines are intended to qualify as exempt performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m) (“162(m) awards”), the committee will

205

pre-establish, in writing and no later than 90 days after the commencement of the period of service to which the performance relates (or at such earlier time as is consistent with qualifying the 162(m) award for such exemption), one or more performance goals applicable to such 162(m) awards, the amount or amounts that will be payable or earned if the performance goals are achieved, and such other terms and conditions as the committee deems appropriate with respect to such awards. At the close of the applicable performance period, the committee will certify whether the applicable performance goals have been attained, and no amount will be paid under 162(m) awards unless the performance goal or goals applicable to the payment of such 162(m) awards have been so certified. The committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion (either in individual cases or in ways that affect more than one participant), reduce the actual payment, if any, to be made under 162(m) awards to the extent consistent with the performance-based compensation exemption.

Performance Goals . The amended and restated 2010 plan provides that grants of performance awards may be made subject to achieving “performance goals” over a specified performance period. Performance goals with respect to those awards that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of Code Section 162(m) are limited to an objectively determinable measure of performance relating to any, or any combination of, the following (measured either absolutely or by reference to an index or indices or the performance of one or more companies and determined either on a consolidated basis or, as the context permits, on a divisional, subsidiary, line of business, project or geographical basis or in combinations thereof and subject to such adjustments, if any, as the committee specifies, consistent with the requirements of Code Section 162(m)): sales revenue, operating income before or after taxes, net income before or after taxes, net income before securities transactions, net or operating income excluding non-recurring charges, return on assets, return on equity, return on capital, market share, earnings per share, cash flow, revenue, revenue growth, expenses, stock price, dividends, total stockholder return, price/earnings ratio, market capitalization, book value, product quality, customer retention, unit sales, strategic business objectives or any other performance measure deemed appropriate by the Committee in its discretion.

Other Stock-Based Awards. Other stock-based or stock-related awards (including the grant or offer for sale of unrestricted Tornier ordinary shares or the payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of Tornier ordinary shares) may be granted in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions (including performance goals) as determined by the committee. Each other stock-based award shall be expressed in terms of Tornier ordinary shares or units based on Tornier ordinary shares, as determined by the committee. Other stock-based awards will be paid in cash or Tornier ordinary shares, as determined by the committee.

Dividend Equivalents. With the exception of stock options and SARs, awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan may, in the committee’s discretion, earn dividend equivalents with respect to the cash or stock dividends or other distributions that would have been paid on Tornier ordinary shares covered by such award had such shares been issued and outstanding on the dividend payment date. Such dividend equivalents will be converted to cash or additional Tornier ordinary shares by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as determined by the committee. Dividend equivalents will be accrued for the account of the participant and will be paid to the participant on the date on which the corresponding awards are exercised, settled, paid, or become free of restrictions, as applicable. Dividend equivalents will be subject to forfeiture to the same extent that the corresponding awards are subject to forfeiture as provided in amended and restated 2010 plan or any award agreement.

Termination of Service. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the amended and restated 2010 plan or an award agreement at the time of grant, in the event a participant’s employment or other service with Tornier or any of its affiliates, as the case may be, is terminated by reason of death or disability, then:

•

All outstanding stock options and SARs held by the participant will, to the extent exercisable as of such termination, remain exercisable for a period of one year after such termination, but not later than the date the stock options or SARs expire, and options and SARs not exercisable as of such termination will terminate and be forfeited; and

•

All outstanding stock grants and stock unit grants held by the participant that then have not vested and all outstanding, but unpaid, cash-based or other stock-based awards held by the participant will

206

terminate and be forfeited; provided, however, that with respect to any such awards that vest based on the achievement of performance goals, if a participant’s employment or other service with Tornier or any affiliate, as the case may be, is terminated by death or disability prior to the end of the performance period of such award, but after the conclusion of a portion of the performance period (but in no event less than one year), the committee may, in its sole discretion, cause Tornier ordinary shares to be delivered or payment made with respect to the participant’s award, but only if otherwise earned for the entire performance period and only with respect to the portion of the applicable performance period completed at the date of such event, with proration based on full fiscal years only and no shares to be delivered for partial fiscal years. If the effective date of such termination is on or after the end of the time period applicable to an award which vests based on the achievement of performance goals, then any such award will be paid to the participant in accordance with the payment terms of such award.

Except to the extent otherwise provided in the amended and restated 2010 plan or an award agreement at the time of grant, if a plan participant’s employment or other service with Tornier or any affiliate, as the case may be, is terminated for any reason other than death or disability or due to actions constituting “cause” or an “adverse action,” then:

•

All outstanding stock options and SARs held by the participant that then are exercisable will remain exercisable for three months after the date of termination, but those that are not exercisable will terminate and be forfeited; and

•

All outstanding stock grants and stock unit grants held by the participant that then have not vested and all outstanding, but unpaid, performance awards and cash-based or other stock-based awards held by the participant will terminate and be forfeited; provided, that with respect to any such awards the vesting of which is based on the achievement of performance goals, if the effective date of such termination is on or after the end of the time period applicable to an award which vests based on the achievement of performance goals, then any such award held by a participant will be paid to the participant in accordance with the payment terms of such award.

Forfeiture and Recoupment . If a participant is determined by the committee to have taken any action that would constitute “cause” or an “adverse action” during or within one year after the termination of the participant’s employment or other service with Tornier or an affiliate, irrespective of whether or not the participant was terminated as a result of “cause” or “adverse action,” all rights of the participant under the amended and restated 2010 plan and any agreements evidencing an award then held by the participant will terminate and be forfeited without notice of any kind and the committee shall have the authority to rescind the exercise, vesting or issuance of, or payment in respect of, any awards of the participant that were exercised, vested or issued, or as to which such payment was made, during such period and to require the participant to pay to Tornier, within ten days of receipt from Tornier of notice of such rescission, any amount received or the amount of any gain realized as a result of such rescinded exercise, vesting, issuance or payment (including any dividend equivalents paid or other distributions made with respect to any shares subject to any award). Tornier will be entitled to withhold and deduct from future wages of the participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to the participant from Tornier or an affiliate) or make other arrangements for the collection of all amounts necessary to satisfy the participant’s payment obligations hereunder.

“Cause,” with respect to any participant, means (i) the participant has engaged in conduct that in the judgment of the committee constitutes gross negligence, misconduct or gross neglect in the performance of the participant’s duties and responsibilities, including any breach of Tornier’s policies, including its code of business conduct and ethics, code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality and code of conduct on interaction with U.S. customers, and conduct resulting or intending to result directly or indirectly in gain or personal enrichment for the participant at Tornier’s expense; (ii) the participant has been convicted of or has pled guilty to a felony for fraud, embezzlement or theft; (iii) the participant has engaged in a breach of any policy of Tornier for which termination of employment or service is a permissible consequence; or (iv) the participant has engaged in any conduct that would constitute “cause” under the terms of his or her employment or consulting agreement, if any; provided, that if, subsequent to the participant’s voluntary termination for any reason or involuntary

207

termination by us without cause, it is discovered that the participant’s employment could have been terminated for cause, then such participant’s employment will be deemed to have been terminated for cause for all purposes under the amended and restated 2010 plan.

An “adverse action” includes any of the following actions that the committee determines to be injurious, detrimental, prejudicial or adverse to the interests of Tornier or its affiliates: (i) disclosing any confidential information of Tornier or any affiliate to any person not authorized to receive it; (ii) engaging, directly or indirectly, in any commercial activity that in the judgment of the committee competes with Tornier’s business or the business of any of its affiliates; or (iii) interfering with Tornier’s relationships or the relationships of its affiliates and Tornier’s and their respective employees, independent contractors, customers, prospective customers and vendors.

In addition, if Tornier is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to Tornier’s material noncompliance, as a result of misconduct, with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, then any participant who is one of the individuals subject to automatic forfeiture under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 will reimburse Tornier with respect to any award received by such individual under the amended and restated 2010 plan during the 12-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the SEC, as the case may be, of the financial document embodying such financial reporting requirement.

Change in Control . Unless otherwise determined by the committee either in an award agreement or after the making of an award under the amended and restated 2010 plan, but prior to a change in control of Tornier, upon a change in control (as defined in the amended and restated 2010 plan): (i) all stock options and SARs granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan will become immediately exercisable in full and will remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms, regardless of whether the grantee remains in employment or service with Tornier or one of its affiliates; (ii) all restrictions and vesting requirements applicable to any award based solely on the continued service of a participant will terminate; and (iii) all awards the vesting or payment of which are based on performance goals will vest as though such performance goals were fully achieved at target and will become immediately payable. The treatment of any other awards in the event of a change in control will be as determined by the committee in connection with the grant thereof, as reflected in the applicable award agreement. The committee is given the power under the amended and restated 2010 plan to alternatively provide that upon a change in control any or all outstanding stock-based awards will be canceled and terminated and the holders will receive a payment of cash or stock equal to the difference, if any, between the consideration received by Tornier shareholders in respect of a Tornier ordinary share in connection with the change in control and the purchase price per share, if any, under the award, multiplied by the number of shares subject to such award, provided that if such product is zero or less, or the award is not then exercisable, the award may be canceled and terminated without payment for such award.

Generally, and subject to some exceptions, a change in control is deemed to have occurred if: (i) another person becomes the beneficial owner of at least 50% of then-outstanding Tornier ordinary shares or the combined voting power of its then-outstanding voting stock; (ii) a majority of the Tornier board of directors becomes comprised of persons other than those for whom election proxies have been solicited by the Tornier board of directors; (iii) the completion of certain business combinations, including certain reorganizations, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of Tornier’s assets or the acquisition by Tornier of assets or stock of another entity, where the shareholders before the business combination fail to beneficially own and have voting power for more than 50% of Tornier or the resulting company after the business combination; or (iv) the Tornier shareholders approve a complete liquidation or dissolution of the company.

Transferability . All awards granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan are non-transferable, except for certain transfers as described below and transfers by an eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant pursuant to a will or under the laws of descent and distribution. Nonqualified stock options granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan may be transferred by an eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant to certain family members of such eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant to a trust exclusively for the benefit of one or more of the family members of such eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant; however, such transfer must be made as a gift without consideration and comply with applicable securities laws. A

208

stock option or SAR exercisable during the lifetime of an eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant may be exercised only by the eligible employee, non-employee director or consultant.

Term; Amendment and Termination . Unless sooner terminated by the Tornier board of directors, the amended and restated 2010 plan will terminate at midnight on August 25, 2020. Subject to certain exceptions, the Tornier board of directors has the authority to terminate and the committee has the authority to amend the amended and restated 2010 plan or any outstanding award agreement at any time and from time to time. No amendments to the amended and restated 2010 plan will be effective without approval of the Tornier shareholders if: (a) shareholder approval of the amendment is then required pursuant to Section 422 of the Code, the rules of the primary stock exchange or stock market on which Tornier ordinary shares are then traded, applicable United States state corporate laws or regulations, applicable United States federal laws or regulations, and the applicable laws of any foreign country or jurisdiction where awards are, or shall be, granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan. No termination or amendment of the amended and restated 2010 plan or an award agreement shall adversely affect in any material way any award previously granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan without the written consent of the participant holding such award.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general summary, as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, of the United States federal income tax consequences to participants and Tornier of grants under the amended and restated 2010 plan. For purposes of the discussion below, unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Tornier” refer to Tornier and its U.S. subsidiaries. This summary is intended for the information of Tornier shareholders considering how to vote at the Tornier extraordinary general meeting and not as tax guidance to participants in the amended and restated 2010 plan, as the consequences may vary with the types of grants made, the identity of the participant and the method of payment or settlement. The summary does not address the effects of other federal taxes or taxes imposed under state, local or foreign tax laws. Each participant is encouraged to seek the advice of a qualified tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of participation in the amended and restated 2010 plan.

Incentive Stock Options. With respect to incentive stock options, generally the stock option holder is not taxed, and Tornier is not entitled to a deduction, on either the grant or the exercise of an incentive stock option so long as the requirements of Section 422 of the Code continue to be met. If the stock option holder meets the employment requirements and does not dispose of Tornier ordinary shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option until at least one year after date of the exercise of the stock option and at least two years after the date the stock option was granted, gain or loss realized on sale of the shares will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss. If the Tornier ordinary shares are disposed of before those periods expire, which is called a disqualifying disposition, the stock option holder will be required to recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess, if any, of the fair market value of Tornier ordinary shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price, or (ii) if the disposition is a taxable sale or exchange, the amount of gain realized. Upon a disqualifying disposition, Tornier will generally be entitled, in the same tax year, to a deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the stock option holder.

Nonqualified Stock Options. The grant of a stock option that does not qualify for treatment as an incentive stock option, or a nonqualified stock option, is generally not a taxable event for the stock option holder. Upon exercise of the stock option, the stock option holder will generally be required to recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of Tornier ordinary shares acquired upon exercise (determined as of the date of exercise) over the exercise price of the stock option, and Tornier will be entitled to a deduction in an equal amount in the same tax year. At the time of a subsequent sale or disposition of shares obtained upon exercise of a nonqualified stock option, any gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss, which will be either a long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on how long the shares have been held.

SARs. The grant of a SAR will not cause the participant to recognize ordinary income or entitle Tornier to a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the participant will recognize ordinary income in the amount of the cash or value of Tornier ordinary shares payable to the participant (before

209

reduction for any withholding taxes), and Tornier will receive a corresponding deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant, assuming that a deduction is allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code.

Stock Grants, Stock Unit Grants and Other Stock-Based Awards . The U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to stock grants, stock unit grants and other stock-based awards depend on the facts and circumstances of each award, including, in particular, the nature of any restrictions imposed with respect to the awards. In general, if the awards that are granted to the participant are subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” (e.g., the awards are conditioned upon the future performance of substantial services by the participant) and are nontransferable, a taxable event occurs when the risk of forfeiture ceases or the awards become transferable, whichever first occurs. At such time, the participant will recognize ordinary income to the extent of the excess of the fair market value of the awards on such date over the participant’s cost for such awards (if any), and the same amount is deductible by Tornier, assuming that a deduction is allowed under Code Section 162(m). Under certain circumstances, the participant, by making an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, can accelerate U.S. federal income tax recognition with respect to awards that are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and transferability restrictions, in which event the ordinary income amount and Tornier’s deduction will be measured and timed as of the grant date of the awards. If the awards granted to the participant are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or transferability restrictions, the participant will recognize ordinary income with respect to the awards to the extent of the excess of the fair market value of the awards at the time of grant over the participant’s cost, if any, and the same amount is deductible by Tornier, assuming that a deduction is allowed under Code Section 162(m). If a stock grant or stock unit grant is granted but no stock is actually issued to the participant at the time the award is granted, the participant will recognize ordinary income at the time the participant receives stock free of any substantial risk of forfeiture and the amount of such income will be equal to the fair market value of the stock at such time over the participant’s cost, if any, and the same amount is then deductible by Tornier at that time.

Cash-Based Awards. Cash-based awards will be taxable as ordinary income to the participant in the amount of the cash received by the participant (before reduction for any withholding taxes), and Tornier will receive a corresponding deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant, assuming that a deduction is allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code.

Withholding Obligations. Tornier has the right to require the recipient to pay to Tornier an amount necessary for Tornier to satisfy the recipient’s federal, state or local tax withholding obligations with respect to awards granted under the amended and restated 2010 plan. As permitted by applicable law, Tornier may withhold from other amounts payable to a recipient an amount necessary to satisfy these obligations, and the committee may permit a participant to satisfy Tornier’s withholding obligation with respect to awards paid in Tornier ordinary shares by having shares withheld, at the time the awards become taxable, provided that when withholding for taxes is effected, it will be withheld only up to the minimum required tax withholding rates or such other rate that will not trigger a negative accounting impact on Tornier.

Code Section 409A. If a grant constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code and the requirements of Section 409A are not satisfied, then, at the time of the failure, or if later, when it vests, the grant may be subject to ordinary income taxes, an additional 20% income tax and an additional income tax calculated as the underpayment interest (determined at a premium interest rate) that would have been due had the amounts deferred been includible in income.

Code Section 162(m). Pursuant to Code Section 162(m), the annual compensation paid to an individual, who on the last day of the taxable year was the chief executive officer or otherwise covered by this provision because his or her compensation was reported in the Summary Compensation Table, may not be deductible to the extent that it exceeds $1 million unless the compensation qualifies as “performance-based” under Code Section 162(m). The amended and restated 2010 plan has been designed to permit the committee to grant awards that qualify as “performance-based” for purposes of satisfying the conditions of Code Section 162(m).

210

Excise Tax on Parachute Payments. Unless otherwise provided in a separate agreement between a participant and Tornier, if, with respect to a participant, the acceleration of the vesting of an award or the payment of cash in exchange for all or part of an award, together with any other payments that such participant has the right to receive from Tornier, would constitute a “parachute payment” then the payments to such participant will be reduced to the largest amount as will result in no portion of such payments being subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code. Such reduction, however, will only be made if the aggregate amount of the payments after such reduction exceeds the difference between the amount of such payments absent such reduction minus the aggregate amount of the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code attributable to any such excess parachute payments. If such provisions are applicable and if an employee will be subject to a 20% excise tax on any “excess parachute payment” pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, Tornier will be denied a deduction with respect to such excess parachute payment pursuant to Section 280G of the Code.

Incentive Awards Granted Under the 2010 Plan

Tornier has not provided a new plan benefits table or the benefits or amounts that would have been received by or allocated to participants under the amended and restated 2010 plan for the last completed fiscal year if the amended and restated 2010 plan had then been in effect because all awards made under the amended and restated 2010 plan will be made at the committee’s discretion and therefore are not determinable. However, on an annual basis, each non-executive director of Tornier receives $125,000, one-half of which is paid in stock options and the remaining one-half of which is paid in stock grants (in the form of restricted stock units).

Except as set forth above, no information can be provided with respect to the number or types of awards that may be granted to particular eligible recipients or groups of recipients in the future under the amended and restated 2010 plan. Such awards are within the discretion of the committee (including the Tornier board of directors, which has responsibility for making certain grants), and the committee has not determined any other future awards or who might receive them. It has been Tornier’s practice, however, to grant new non-executive directors and certain new employees stock options and stock grants and to grant current non-executive directors and certain employees stock options and stock grants on an annual basis.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tornier has agreed under the terms of the merger agreement not to grant any options, stock grants or any other equity awards under the 2010 plan prior to the effective time of the merger. See “ The Merger Agreement—Covenants; Conduct of Business Prior to Merger .”

As of May 5, 2015, Tornier had granted options and other incentive awards under the amended and restated 2010 plan as follows:

Board Structure and Composition

Tornier has a one-tier board structure. Tornier’s articles of association provide that the number of members of the Tornier board of directors will be determined by the Tornier board of directors, provided that the Tornier board of directors shall be comprised of at least one executive director and two non-executive directors. The Tornier board of directors currently consists of seven directors, one of whom is Tornier’s executive director and six of whom are non-executive directors.

All of Tornier’s non-executive directors, except Alain Tornier, are “independent directors” under the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market. Therefore, the following five of Tornier’s current seven directors are “independent directors” under the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market: Sean D. Carney, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Richard B. Emmitt, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman. Independence requirements for service on Tornier’s audit committee are discussed below under “— Board Committees—Audit Committee ” and independence requirements for service on Tornier’s compensation committee are discussed below under “— Board Committees—Compensation Committee .” Mr. Wallman and Mr. O’Boyle are independent under the independence definition in the Dutch Corporate Governance Code. Tornier currently complies with the NASDAQ corporate governance requirements, and Tornier can deviate from the Dutch Corporate Governance Code requirement that a majority of its directors be independent within the meaning of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code provided Tornier explains such deviation in its Dutch statutory annual report.

The Tornier board of directors and Tornier shareholders each have approved that the Tornier board of directors be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each director serving a three-year term and one class being elected at each year’s annual general meeting of shareholders. Messrs. Carney and Emmitt are in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2015 annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders. Messrs. Mowry, O’Boyle and Wallman are in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2016 annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders and Mr. Tornier and Ms. Weatherman are in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2017 annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders. At each annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at such meeting will be elected to serve for three-year terms or until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

The general meeting of Tornier shareholders appoints the members of the Tornier board of directors, subject to a binding nomination of the Tornier board of directors in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Dutch Civil Code. The Tornier board of directors makes the binding nomination based on a recommendation of Tornier’s nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed by the general meeting of Tornier shareholders unless the binding nature of the nomination(s) by the Tornier board of directors is set aside by the general meeting of the Tornier shareholders. The binding nature of nomination(s) by the Tornier board of directors can only be set aside by a vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary

217

general meeting of Tornier shareholders, provided such two-thirds vote constitutes more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital. In such case, a new meeting is called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors shall require a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast representing more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital.

A resolution of the general meeting of the Tornier shareholders to suspend a member of the Tornier board of directors requires the affirmative vote of an absolute majority of the votes cast. A resolution of the general meeting of the Tornier shareholders to suspend or dismiss members of the Tornier board of directors, other than pursuant to a proposal by the Tornier board of directors, requires a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital.

Pursuant to a securityholders’ agreement among Tornier, TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., Vertical Fund I, L.P., Vertical Fund II, L.P., KCH Stockholm AB, Alain Tornier, Warburg Pincus (Bermuda) Private Equity IX, L.P. and certain other shareholders, TMG has the right to designate three directors to be nominated to the Tornier board of directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 25% of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, two directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 10% but less than 25% of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and one director for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 5% but less than 10% of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares. Tornier agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the TMG designees to be elected. As of May 5, 2015, TMG beneficially owned 21.9% of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares. Mr. Carney and Ms. Weatherman are the current Tornier directors who are designees of TMG.

Under Tornier’s articles of association, Tornier’s internal rules for the board of directors and Dutch law, the members of the Tornier board of directors are collectively responsible for the management, general and financial affairs and policy and strategy of Tornier. Tornier’s executive director historically has been Tornier’s Chief Executive Officer, who is primarily responsible for managing Tornier’s day-to-day affairs as well as other responsibilities that have been delegated to the executive director in accordance with Tornier’s articles of association and Tornier’s internal rules for the board of directors. Tornier’s non-executive directors supervise Tornier’s Chief Executive Officer and Tornier’s general affairs and provide general advice to Tornier’s Chief Executive Officer. In performing their duties, Tornier’s directors are guided by the interests of Tornier and shall, within the boundaries set by relevant Dutch law, take into account the relevant interests of Tornier’s stakeholders. The internal affairs of the board of directors are governed by Tornier’s internal rules for the board of directors, a copy of which is available on the Investor Relations—Corporate Governance section of Tornier’s corporate website at www.tornier.com .

Mr. Carney serves as Tornier’s Chairman. The duties and responsibilities of the Chairman include, among others: determining the agenda and chairing the meetings of the Tornier board of directors, managing the Tornier board of directors to ensure that it operates effectively, ensuring that the members of the Tornier board of directors receive accurate, timely and clear information, encouraging active engagement by all the members of the Tornier board of directors, promoting effective relationships and open communication between non-executive directors and the executive director and monitoring effective implementation of Tornier board of directors decisions.

All regular meetings of the Tornier board of directors are scheduled to be held in the Netherlands. Each director has the right to cast one vote and may be represented at a meeting of the Tornier board of directors by a fellow director. The Tornier board of directors may pass resolutions only if a majority of the directors is present at the meeting and all resolutions must be passed by a majority of the directors that have no conflict of interest present or represented. However, as required by Dutch law, Tornier’s articles of association provide that when one or more members of the Tornier board of directors is absent or prevented from acting, the remaining members of the Tornier board of directors will be entrusted with the management of Tornier. The intent of this provision is to satisfy certain requirements under Dutch law and provide that, in rare circumstances, when a director is incapacitated, severely ill or similarly absent or prevented from acting, the remaining members of the Tornier board of directors (or, in the event there are no such remaining members, a person appointed by the

218

Tornier shareholders at a general meeting) will be entitled to act on behalf of the Tornier board of directors in the management of Tornier, notwithstanding the general requirement that otherwise requires a majority of the Tornier board of directors be present. In these limited circumstances, Tornier’s articles of association permit the Tornier board of directors to pass resolutions even if a majority of the directors is not present at the meeting.

Subject to Dutch law and any director’s objection, resolutions may be passed in writing by a majority of the directors in office. Under Dutch law, members of the board of directors may not participate in the deliberation and the decision-making process on a subject or transaction in relation to which he or she has a direct or indirect personal interest that conflicts with the interest of Tornier and its business enterprise. If all directors are conflicted and in the absence of a supervisory board, the resolution shall be adopted by the general meeting of shareholders, except if the articles of association prescribe otherwise. Tornier’s articles of association provide that a director shall not take part in any vote on a subject or transaction in relation to which he or she has a direct or indirect personal interest that conflicts with the interest of Tornier and its business enterprise. In such event, the other directors shall be authorized to adopt the resolution. If all directors have a conflict of interest as mentioned above, the resolution shall be adopted by the non-executive directors.

Board Committees

The Tornier board of directors has four standing board committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee and a strategic transactions committee. Each of these committees has the responsibilities and composition described below. The Tornier board of directors has adopted a written charter for each committee of the Tornier board of directors, which charters are available on the Investor Relations—Corporate Governance section of Tornier’s corporate website at www.tornier.com . The Tornier board of directors from time to time may establish other committees.

The following table summarizes the current membership of each of the four Board committees.

Attendance at Board and Committee Meetings, and Annual General Meetings of Shareholders

The Tornier board of directors held nine meetings during the fiscal year ended December 28, 2014. During the last fiscal year, no director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Tornier board of directors and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the board on which the director served.

Tornier’s formal policy regarding attendance by members of the Tornier board of directors at annual general meetings of shareholders is that due to the location of Tornier’s annual general meeting of shareholders in the Netherlands, the residence of most of Tornier’s directors in the United States and the fact that regular board meetings do not take place at or around the time of the annual general meetings of shareholders, directors are not required to attend annual general meetings of shareholders. None of Tornier’s directors attended Tornier’s most recent annual general meeting of shareholders held in June 2014.

Audit Committee

Tornier’s audit committee oversees a broad range of issues surrounding Tornier’s accounting and financial reporting processes and audits of its financial statements. The primary responsibilities of the audit committee include:

•

assisting the Tornier board of directors in monitoring the integrity of Tornier’s financial statements, its compliance with legal and regulatory requirements insofar as they relate to its financial statements and financial reporting obligations and any accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, its independent auditor’s qualifications and independence and the performance of its internal audit function and independent auditors;

•

appointing, compensating, retaining and overseeing the work of any independent registered public accounting firm engaged for the purpose of performing any audit, review or attest services and for dealing directly with any such accounting firm;

•

reviewing and approving all related party transactions required to be disclosed under the federal securities laws.

The audit committee reviews and evaluates, at least annually, the performance of the audit committee and its members, including compliance of the committee with its charter.

The audit committee consists of Mr. Wallman (Chair), Mr. Emmitt and Mr. O’Boyle. Tornier believes that the composition of Tornier’s audit committee complies with the applicable rules of the SEC and the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market. The Tornier board of directors has determined that each of Mr. Wallman, Mr. Emmitt and Mr. O’Boyle is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in the SEC rules, and satisfies the financial sophistication requirements of the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market. The Tornier board of directors also has determined that each of Mr. Wallman, Mr. Emmitt and Mr. O’Boyle meets the more stringent independence requirements for audit committee members of Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act and the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market, and each of Mr. Wallman and Mr. O’Boyle is independent under the Dutch Corporate Governance Code.

The audit committee held ten meetings during 2014.

Compensation Committee

The primary responsibilities of Tornier’s compensation committee, which are within the scope of the compensation policy adopted by the general meeting of the Tornier shareholders, include:

•

reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of Tornier’s Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, evaluating the performance of these officers in light of those goals and objectives and setting compensation of these officers based on such evaluations;

•

making recommendations to the Tornier board of directors with respect to incentive compensation and equity-based plans that are subject to board and shareholder approval, administering or overseeing all of Tornier’s incentive compensation and equity-based plans, and discharging any responsibilities imposed on the committee by any of these plans;

The compensation committee reviews and evaluates, at least annually, the performance of the compensation committee and its members, including compliance of the committee with its charter.

The compensation committee has the sole authority to select, retain, oversee and terminate its own counsel, consultants and advisors and approve the fees and other retention terms of such counsel, consultants and advisors, as it deems appropriate. Before selecting any such counsel, consultant or advisor, the compensation committee reviews and considers the independence of such counsel, consultant or advisor in accordance with applicable SEC and NASDAQ rules. During 2014, the compensation committee retained Mercer (US) Inc. (Mercer) to assist in the design and review of Tornier’s executive and director compensation programs. Additional information regarding the role of Mercer is found under “ Executive Compensation of Tornier—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Determination of Compensation—Role of Consultant .” Mercer’s fees for director and executive compensation consulting services provided to the compensation committee in 2014 were $117,347. Mercer did not provide any services to Tornier during 2014, other than those for which it had been retained by the compensation committee, other than certain services related to the Mercer Benchmark Compensation Survey. The aggregate fees paid for such other services in 2014 were $21,260. The compensation committee and the Tornier board of directors did not review or approve such other services provided to Tornier by Mercer, as those services were approved by management in the normal course of business. The compensation committee has assessed the independence of Mercer pursuant to SEC rules and NASDAQ listing rules and concluded that the work of Mercer did not raise any conflicts of interest.

For a narrative description of the processes and procedures for the consideration and determination of executive and director compensation, please refer to “ Executive Compensation of Tornier—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Determination of Compensation ” and “ Director Compensation of Tornier .”

The compensation committee consists of Mr. Carney (Chair), Mr. Wallman and Ms. Weatherman. Tornier believes that the composition of its compensation committee complies with the applicable rules of the SEC and the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market. The Tornier board of directors has determined that each of Mr. Carney and Mr. Wallman and Ms. Weatherman meets the more stringent independence requirements for compensation committee members of Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act and the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market.

The compensation committee held four meetings during 2014.

Internal Rules for the Board of Directors

The Tornier board of directors has adopted internal rules, which are similar to U.S. corporate bylaws or corporate governance guidelines. A copy of these internal rules can be found on the Investor Relations—Corporate Governance section of Tornier’s corporate website at www.tornier.com . Among the topics addressed in Tornier’s internal rules for the Tornier board of directors are:


• Board responsibility		• Board meetings
• Board composition		• Board resolutions
• Chairman responsibilities		• Conflicts of interest
• Executive director responsibilities		• Board committees
• Non-executive director responsibilities		• Disclosure of information
• Ownership of securities		• Confidentiality

Dutch Corporate Governance Code

In addition to the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market and rules and regulations as promulgated by the SEC, as a Dutch company, Tornier’s governance practices are governed by the Dutch Corporate Governance Code. The Dutch Corporate Governance Code (as last amended on December 10, 2008) contains a number of principles and best practices, with emphasis on integrity, transparency and accountability as the primary means of achieving good governance.

There is considerable overlap between the requirements Tornier must meet under U.S. rules and regulations and the provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code. Although Tornier applies several provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code, as an SEC registrant and NASDAQ listed company, Tornier believes that it is appropriate to maintain governance practices that are in line with its peers listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market and therefore at times may choose to apply practices common for NASDAQ listed companies.

In accordance with the Dutch Corporate Governance Code’s compliance principle of “apply-or-explain,” which permits Dutch companies to be fully compliant with the Dutch Corporate Governance Code by either applying the Dutch practices or explaining why the company has chosen to apply different practices, Tornier discloses in its Dutch statutory annual report that accompanies its Dutch statutory annual accounts to what extent Tornier does not apply provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code, together with the reasons for those deviations. Tornier’s Dutch statutory annual report may be found on the Investor Relations—Corporate Governance section of Tornier’s corporate website at www.tornier.com .

Board of Directors Leadership Structure

Mr. Carney serves as Chairman of the Tornier board of directors. Mr. Mowry serves as Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer and executive director.

Under Tornier’s internal rules for the Tornier board of directors, the chairman may only be a non-executive director, and may not be involved, nor have been involved in the daily management of Tornier. The chairman’s general and specific responsibilities cover: (i) determining the agenda and chairing the meetings of the Tornier board of directors; (ii) ensuring that there is sufficient time for decision-making by the Tornier board of directors; (iii) ensuring the functioning of the Tornier board of directors and conducting shareholder meetings, including Tornier’s annual general meetings of shareholders; (iv) managing the Tornier board of directors to ensure that it

223

operates effectively; (v) ensuring that the members of the Tornier board of directors receive accurate, timely and clear information, in particular about Tornier’s performance, to enable the Tornier board of directors to take sound decisions, monitor effectively and provide advice to promote the success of Tornier; (vi) encouraging active engagement by all the members of the Tornier board of directors; (vii) setting and approving the Tornier board of directors agenda to take full account of the issues and the concerns of all directors; (viii) promoting effective relationships and open communication, both inside and outside the boardroom, between non-executive directors and the executive directors; (ix) monitoring effective implementation of board of directors decisions; (x) ensuring clear structure for and the effective running of board committees together with and facilitated by Tornier’s corporate secretary, maintaining effective communication with major shareholders so as to ensure the Tornier board of directors develops an understanding of their views; (xi) in conjunction with Tornier’s corporate secretary, taking the lead in providing a properly constructed induction program for new directors that is comprehensive, formal and tailored; (xii) ensuring that the performance of individuals and of the Tornier board of directors as a whole and its committees is evaluated at least once a year; and (xiii) establishing a close relationship of trust with the executive director, by providing support and advice while respecting executive responsibility.

Under Tornier’s internal rules for the Tornier board of directors, the executive director shall have responsibility within the Tornier board of directors for: (i) day-to-day management of Tornier comprising all decisions in the ordinary course of its business; and, within the strategic and financial objectives and boundaries as included in the strategy and business plans approved by the Tornier board of directors; (ii) strategic management of Tornier including developing strategy and business plans for Tornier, including the financial projections and the budget, and proposing these plans to the Tornier board of directors and implementing them after approval of the Tornier board of directors; (iii) maintaining appropriate accounting, financial and other controls; (iv) establishing and maintaining internal procedures, which ensure that all major financial information is known to the entire Tornier board of directors, so that the timeliness, completeness and correctness of the external financial reporting are assured; (v) adopting company policies in respect of corporate conduct, including compliance with applicable laws and regulations; (vi) reviewing the process of the provision of appropriate financial and operational information to the Tornier board of directors, and to (public) authorities or other relevant bodies; (vii) preparing and monitoring implementation of succession plans regarding Tornier’s management; (viii) evaluating the overall effectiveness of Tornier; and (ix) such other matters as may be specifically delegated to the executive director by the Tornier board of directors.

Tornier currently believes this leadership structure is in the best interests of Tornier and its shareholders and strikes the appropriate balance between the President and Chief Executive Officer’s responsibility for the strategic direction, day-to day-leadership and performance of Tornier and the Chairman’s responsibility to guide overall strategic direction of Tornier and provide oversight of its corporate governance and guidance to Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer and to set the agenda for and preside over board meetings. Tornier recognizes that different leadership structures may be appropriate for companies in different situations and believes that no one structure is suitable for all companies. Tornier believes that it is well-served by this leadership structure.

Risk Oversight

Risk is inherent with every business. Tornier faces a number of risks, including regulatory, compliance, legal, competitive, financial (accounting, credit, interest rate, liquidity and tax), operational, political, strategic and reputational risks. Tornier’s management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks faced by Tornier, while the Tornier board of directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Tornier board of directors ensures that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The Tornier board of directors oversees risks through the establishment of policies and procedures that are designed to guide daily operations in a manner consistent with applicable laws, regulations and risks acceptable to Tornier. Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer regularly attends meetings of the Tornier board of directors and discusses with the board the strategies and risks facing Tornier.

224

The board’s standing committees oversee risks associated with their respective principal areas of focus. The audit committee’s role includes a particular focus on the qualitative aspects of financial reporting to shareholders, on Tornier’s processes for the management of business and financial risk, and for compliance with significant applicable legal, ethical and regulatory requirements as they relate to Tornier’s financial statements and financial reporting obligations. The audit committee, along with management, is also responsible for developing and participating in a process for review of important financial and operating topics that present potential significant risk to Tornier. The compensation committee is responsible for overseeing risks and exposures associated with Tornier’s compensation programs and arrangements, including its executive and director compensation programs and arrangements, and management succession planning. The nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee oversees risks relating to Tornier’s compliance efforts with respect to legal and regulatory requirements and relevant company policies and procedures, including Tornier’s code of business conduct and ethics, code of conduct on interactions with U.S. customers, code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality and other aspects of Tornier’s corporate compliance program and risks related to its corporate governance matters and policies and director succession planning. The strategic transactions committee oversees risks related to strategic transactions that Tornier may undertake.

Consideration of Director Nominees

The Tornier board of directors has delegated to the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee the responsibility, among other things, to review and make recommendations to the Tornier board of directors regarding the size and composition of the Tornier board of directors and identify, review and recommend nominees for election as directors. The policy of the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee with respect to nominees for election as directors submitted or recommended by the Tornier shareholders is to consider properly submitted recommendations for candidates to the Tornier board of directors from Tornier shareholders. In evaluating such recommendations, the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee seeks to achieve a balance of experience, knowledge, integrity and capability on the Tornier board of directors and to address the membership criteria described below. Any shareholder recommendations for consideration by the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee should include the candidate’s name, biographical information, information regarding any relationships between the candidate and Tornier within the last three years, at least three personal references, a statement of recommendation of the candidate from the shareholder, a description of the Tornier ordinary shares beneficially owned by the shareholder, a description of all arrangements between the candidate and the recommending shareholder and any other person pursuant to which the candidate is being recommended, a written indication of the candidate’s willingness to serve on the Tornier board of directors and a written indication to provide such other information as the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee may reasonably request. There are no differences in the manner in which the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee evaluates nominees for director based on whether the nominee is recommended by a Tornier shareholder or otherwise. Shareholder recommendations to the Tornier board of directors should be sent to:

Kevin M. Klemz

Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary

Tornier N.V.

Prins Bernhardplein 200

1097 JB Amsterdam

The Netherlands

The nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee will evaluate and recommend candidates for membership on the Tornier board of directors consistent with criteria established by the committee. The nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee has not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by each candidate for the Tornier board of directors or specific qualities or skills that are necessary for one or more of the members of the Tornier board of directors to possess. However, the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee, when considering a potential candidate, will

225

factor into its determination the following qualities of a candidate: (i) high personal and professional ethics, values and integrity; (ii) the education, skill and experience that the Tornier board of directors deems relevant and useful, including whether such attributes or background would contribute to the diversity of the Tornier board of directors as a whole; (iii) the ability and willingness to serve on any committees of the Tornier board of directors; and (iv) the ability and willingness to commit adequate time to the proper functioning of the Tornier board of directors and its committees.

While Tornier does not have a stand-alone diversity policy, the nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee and the Tornier board of directors believe that the above-mentioned attributes provide Tornier with a diverse range of perspectives and judgment necessary to guide its strategies and monitor their execution. The nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee seeks nominees with a broad diversity of experience, expertise and backgrounds. The nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee does not assign specific weight to particular criteria and no particular criterion is necessarily applicable to all prospective nominees. Tornier believes that the backgrounds and qualifications of the directors, considered as a group, should provide a significant mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow the Tornier board of directors to fulfill its responsibilities.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of Tornier’s compensation committee has served as one of Tornier’s officers or employees at any time. Except as otherwise disclosed in this joint proxy statement/prospectus, no member of Tornier’s compensation committee has had any relationship with Tornier requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. None of Tornier’s executive officers has served as a director, or member of the compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function), of an organization that has an executive officer also serving as a member of the Tornier board of directors or compensation committee.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

In February 2014, Tornier established stock ownership guidelines that are intended to further align the interests of Tornier’s directors and executive officers with those of the Tornier shareholders. The stock ownership guideline for Tornier’s non-executive directors is that number of Tornier ordinary shares with a value equal to three times the amount of the annual cash retainer paid to directors in consideration for their service as members of the Tornier board of directors. Stock ownership targets for Tornier’s executive officers are set at that number of Tornier ordinary shares with a value equal to a multiple of the executive’s annual base salary, with the multiple equal to three times for Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer and one and one-half times for Tornier’s other executive officers. Each director and executive officer has five years from the date of election or hire or, if the ownership multiple has increased during his or her tenure, five years from the date established in connection with such increase to reach his or her stock ownership target. Until the applicable stock ownership target is achieved, each director and executive officer subject to the guidelines is required to retain an amount equal to 75% of the net shares received as a result of the exercise of stock options or the vesting of restricted stock units. All of Tornier’s directors and executives currently meet their respective individual stock ownership guideline.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Tornier has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics, which applies to all of its directors, officers and employees. The code of business conduct and ethics is available on the Investor Relations—Corporate Governance section of Tornier’s corporate website at www.tornier.com . Any person may request a copy free of charge by writing to Kevin M. Klemz, Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, Tornier N.V., Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Tornier intends to disclose on its website any

226

amendment to, or waiver from, a provision of its code of business conduct and ethics that applies to directors and executive officers and that is required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules of the SEC and the NASDAQ Global Select Stock Market.

Code of Conduct on Insider Trading and Confidentiality

Tornier has adopted a code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality, which applies to all of its directors, officers and employees. The code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality, among other things, prohibits Tornier’s directors and officers from engaging in hedging transactions, such as short sales, transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivatives, and pledging Tornier ordinary shares in any significant respect.

Shareholder Communications with the Board of Directors

Tornier has not adopted a formal process for shareholder communications with the Tornier board of directors. Nevertheless, every effort has been made to ensure that the views of Tornier shareholders are heard by the Tornier board of directors or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to shareholders in a timely manner. Tornier believes its responsiveness to shareholder communications to the Tornier board of directors has been excellent and, to date, Tornier has not considered it necessary to adopt a formal process. Nevertheless, the Tornier board of directors will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to adopt a formal process for shareholder communications with the Tornier board of directors.

227

Procedures Regarding Approval of Related Party Transactions

As provided in Tornier’s audit committee charter, all related party transactions are to be reviewed and pre-approved by Tornier’s audit committee.

Tornier is party to a registration rights agreement with certain of its shareholders, including entities affiliated with certain of Tornier’s directors, including TMG, Vertical Fund I, L.P., Vertical Fund II, L.P. and KCH Stockholm AB. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, Tornier has agreed to (i) use its reasonable best efforts to effect up to three registered offerings of at least $10 million each upon a demand of TMG or its affiliates and one registered offering of at least $10 million upon a demand of Vertical Fund I, L.P. or Vertical Fund II, L.P., (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to become eligible for use of Form S-3 for registration statements and once Tornier become eligible TMG or its affiliates shall have the right to demand an unlimited number of registrations of at least $10 million each on Form S-3 and (iii) maintain the effectiveness of each such registration statement for a period of 120 days or until the distribution of the registrable securities pursuant to the registration statement is complete. Tornier has also granted certain incidental or “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the registrable shares, subject to certain limitations and restrictions, including volume and marketing restrictions imposed by the underwriters of the offering with respect to which the rights are exercised. Under the registration rights agreement, Tornier has agreed to bear the expenses, including the fees and disbursements of one legal counsel for the holders, in connection with the registration of the registrable securities, except for any underwriting commissions relating to the sale of the registrable securities. The filing of the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part did not trigger registration rights under this agreement.

On February 28, 2014, Tornier completed an underwritten secondary public offering of Tornier ordinary shares pursuant to which TMG participated and sold an aggregate of 5,125,000 ordinary shares to the underwriter at a per share price of $18.94. Pursuant to the terms of the registration rights agreement described above, Tornier paid substantially all of the expenses in connection with the offering, other than underwriting commissions, which expenses equaled approximately $320,000.

On May 15, 2013, Tornier completed an underwritten public offering of Tornier ordinary shares pursuant to which TMG, Vertical Fund I, L.P. and Vertical Fund II, L.P. participated and sold an aggregate of 2,875,000 ordinary shares in addition to 5,175,000 ordinary shares sold by Tornier at a per share price of $16.15. Pursuant to the terms of the registration rights agreement described above, Tornier paid substantially all of the expenses in connection with the offering, other than underwriting commissions, which expenses equaled approximately $560,000.

On February 9, 2007, Tornier signed an exclusive, worldwide license and supply agreement with Tepha for its poly-4-hydroxybutyrate polymer for a license fee of $110,000, plus an additional $750,000 as consideration for certain research and development. Tepha is further entitled to royalties of up to 5% of sales under these licenses. Tornier amended this agreement in December 2011 to include certain additional rights and an option to license additional products. Tornier paid $0.1 million of minimum royalty payments during 2014 to Tepha under the terms of this agreement. Additionally, Tornier made payments of $0.2 million during 2014 related to the purchase of materials. Vertical Fund I, L.P. and Vertical Fund II, L.P. in the aggregate own approximately 15% of Tepha’s outstanding common and preferred stock. In addition, Mr. Emmitt serves on the Tepha board of directors.

229

On January 22, 2008, Tornier signed an agreement with BioSET to develop, commercialize and distribute products incorporating BioSET’s F2A synthetic growth factor technology in the field of orthopaedic and podiatric soft tissue repair. As amended on February 10, 2010, this agreement granted Tornier an option to purchase an exclusive, worldwide license for such products in consideration for a payment of $1.0 million. Tornier exercised this option on February 10, 2010. Upon FDA approval of certain products, an additional $2.5 million will become due. BioSET is entitled to royalties of up to 6% for sales of products under this agreement. Tornier has not accrued or paid any royalties under the terms of this agreement. Vertical Fund I, L.P. and Vertical Fund II, L.P. in the aggregate own approximately 20% of BioSET’s outstanding capital stock.

On July 29, 2008, Tornier formed a real estate holding company, SCI Calyx, together with Mr. Tornier. SCI Calyx is owned 51% by Tornier and 49% by Mr. Tornier. SCI Calyx was initially capitalized by a contribution of capital of €10,000 funded 51% by Tornier and 49% by Mr. Tornier. SCI Calyx then acquired a combined manufacturing and office facility in Montbonnot, France, for approximately $6.1 million. The manufacturing and office facility is used to support the manufacture of certain of Tornier’s current products and house certain of Tornier’s operations in Montbonnot, France. This real estate purchase was funded through mortgage borrowings of $4.1 million and $2.0 million cash borrowed from the two current shareholders of SCI Calyx. The $2.0 million cash borrowed from the SCI Calyx shareholders originally consisted of a $1.0 million note due to Mr. Tornier and a $1.0 million note due to Tornier SAS, which is Tornier’s wholly-owned French operating subsidiary. Both of the notes issued by SCI Calyx bear interest at the three-month Euro Libor rate plus 0.5% and have no stated term. During 2010, SCI Calyx borrowed approximately $1.4 million from Mr. Tornier in order to fund on-going leasehold improvements necessary to prepare the Montbonnot facility for its intended use. This cash was borrowed under the same terms as the original notes. As of December 28, 2014, SCI Calyx had related-party debt outstanding to Mr. Tornier of $2.3 million. The SCI Calyx entity is consolidated by Tornier, and the related real estate and liabilities are included in Tornier’s consolidated balance sheets. On September 3, 2008, Tornier SAS, Tornier’s French operating subsidiary, entered into a lease agreement with SCI Calyx relating to these facilities. The agreement, which terminates in 2018, provides for an annual rent payment of €440,000, which has subsequently been increased and is currently €959,712. As of December 28, 2014, future minimum payments under this lease were €4.6 million in the aggregate.

On December 29, 2007, Tornier SAS entered into a lease agreement with Mr. Tornier and his spouse, relating to Tornier’s museum in Saint Villa, France. The agreement provides for a term through May 30, 2015 and an initial annual rent payment of €28,500, which was subsequently decreased to €14,602. On December 29, 2007, Tornier SAS entered into a lease agreement with Animus SCI, relating to Tornier’s facilities in Montbonnot Saint Martin, France. On August 18, 2012, the parties amended the lease agreement to extend the term until May 31, 2022 and reduce the annual rent. The amended agreement provides for an initial annual rent payment of €279,506 annually, which was subsequently increased to €295,034. Animus SCI is wholly-owned by Mr. Tornier. On February 6, 2008, Tornier SAS entered into a lease agreement with Balux SCI, effective as of May 22, 2006, relating to Tornier’s facilities in Montbonnot Saint Martin, France. On August 18, 2012, the parties amended the lease agreement to extend the term until May 31, 2022 and reduce the annual rent. The amended agreement provides for an initial annual rent payment of €252,254, which was subsequently increased to €560,756. Balux SCI is wholly-owned by Mr. Tornier and his sister, Colette Tornier. As of December 28, 2014, future minimum payments under all of these agreements were €8.1 million in the aggregate.

One of the executive director nominees and one of the non-executive director nominees and some of the Wright executive officers have prior relationships with Warburg Pincus LLC. Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s President and Chief Executive Officer, served as an executive officer at other companies controlled by Warburg Pincus LLC, including ev3 Inc. Pascal E.R. Girin, Wright’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, served as an executive in residence at Warburg Pincus LLC, as an executive officer at other companies controlled by Warburg Pincus LLC, including Keystone Dental Inc., and as a non-executive director of Tornier from November 2010 to November 2012. John L. Miclot, a member of the Wright board of directors, has served as an executive in residence at Warburg Pincus LLC.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION OF TORNIER

Overview

Under the terms of the Tornier board of directors compensation policy, which was approved by the general meeting of the Tornier shareholders on August 26, 2010 and was amended on October 28, 2010, the compensation packages for Tornier’s non-executive directors are determined by Tornier’s non-executive directors, based upon recommendations by the compensation committee. Such compensation is determined by Tornier’s non-executive directors pursuant to the terms of Tornier’s articles of association which provide that if all directors have a conflict of interest in the matter to be acted upon, the matter shall be approved by the non-executive directors. In determining non-executive director compensation, Tornier targets such compensation in the market median range of Tornier’s peer companies; although, Tornier may deviate from the median if Tornier determines necessary or appropriate on a case by case basis.

Under the terms of Tornier’s non-executive director compensation policy, compensation for Tornier’s non-executive directors is comprised of both cash compensation and equity-based compensation. Cash compensation is in the form of annual or other retainers for non-executive directors, chairman, committee chairs and committee members. Equity-based compensation is in the form of initial and annual stock option and stock grants (in the form of restricted stock units). Each of these components is described in more detail below. Tornier does not generally provide perquisites and other personal benefits to Tornier’s non-executive directors.

During 2014, Tornier’s compensation committee engaged Mercer to review Tornier’s non-executive director compensation program. In so doing, Mercer analyzed the outside director compensation levels and practices of Tornier’s peer companies. Mercer used the same peer group as was approved by the compensation committee in February 2013 and used to gather compensation information for Tornier’s executive officers, with the exception that Heartware International, Inc. was substituted for Conceptus, Inc. For more information regarding the peer companies, see the information under “ Executive Compensation of Tornier—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Determination of Executive Compensation—Use of Peer Group and Other Market Data ” of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Based on Mercer’s recommendations, the compensation committee recommended and the Tornier board of directors approved no changes to Tornier’s non-executive director compensation policy during 2014. Tornier’s non-executive director compensation policy is consistent with its shareholder-approved board of directors compensation policy.

Cash Compensation

The cash compensation component of Tornier’s non-executive director compensation consists of gross annual fees, commonly referred to as annual cash retainers, paid to each non-executive director and additional annual cash retainers paid to the chairman and each board committee chair and member. The table below sets forth the annual cash retainers paid to each non-executive director and the additional annual cash retainers paid to the chairman and each board committee chair and member:


Description	Annual cash retainer ($)
Non-executive director		40,000
Chairman premium		50,000
Audit committee chair premium		15,000
Compensation committee chair premium		10,000
Nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee chair premium		5,000
Strategic transactions committee chair premium		10,000
Audit committee member (including chair)		10,000
Compensation committee member (including chair)		5,000
Nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee member (including chair)		5,000
Strategic transactions committee member (including chair)		5,000

231

The annual cash retainers are paid on a quarterly basis in arrears within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter. For example, the retainers for the first calendar quarter covering the period from January 1 through March 31 are paid within 30 days of March 31.

In addition, each non-executive director, other than Mr. Tornier, receives a cash travel stipend of $2,000 for each board meeting attended in person that takes place in the Netherlands or other location outside the United States.

Equity-Based Compensation

The equity-based compensation component of Tornier’s non-executive director compensation consists of initial stock option and stock grants (in the form of restricted stock units) to new non-executive directors upon their first appointment or election to the Tornier board of directors and annual stock option and stock grants (in the form of restricted stock units) to all non-executive directors on the same date that annual performance recognition grants of equity awards are made to Tornier’s employees (or such other date if otherwise in accordance with all applicable, laws, rules and regulations).

Non-executive directors, upon their initial election to the Tornier board of directors and on an annual basis thereafter effective as of the same date that annual performance recognition grants of equity awards are made to Tornier’s employees (or such other date if otherwise in accordance with all applicable, laws, rules and regulations), receive $125,000, one-half of which is paid in stock options and the remaining one-half of which is paid in stock grants (in the form of restricted stock units). The number of Tornier ordinary shares underlying the stock options and stock grants is determined based on the 10-trading day average closing sale price of a Tornier ordinary share, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, and as determined one week prior to the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award. The stock options have a term of 10 years and a per share exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share on the grant date. The stock options and stock grants (in the form of restricted stock units) vest over a two-year period, with one-half of the underlying shares vesting on each of the one-year and two-year anniversaries of the grant date, in each case so long as the director is still a director as of such date.

Accordingly, on August 12, 2014, each of Tornier’s non-executive directors received a stock option to purchase 6,034 Tornier ordinary shares at an exercise price of $21.66 per share and a stock grant in the form of a restricted stock unit representing 2,728 Tornier ordinary shares.

Election to Receive Equity-Based Compensation in Lieu of Cash Compensation

Tornier’s non-executive director compensation policy allows Tornier’s non-executive directors to elect to receive a stock grant in lieu of 100% of their annual cash retainers payable for services to be rendered as a non-executive director, chairman and chair or member of any board committee. Each non-executive director who elects to receive a stock grant in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers is granted a stock grant (in the form of a restricted stock unit) under Tornier’s stock incentive plan for that number of Tornier ordinary shares as determined by dividing the aggregate dollar amount of all annual cash retainers anticipated to payable to such director for the period commencing on July 1 of each year to June 30 of the following year by the 10-trading day average closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market and as determined one week prior to the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award. Four of Tornier’s non-executive directors elected to receive such a stock grant in lieu of their cash retainers for the period covering July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014, and the same four non-executive directors elected to receive such a stock grant in lieu of their cash retainers for the period covering July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. Accordingly, effective as of August 9, 2013 and August 12, 2014, these four non-executive directors received stock grants. These stock grants are described in more detail in note (1) to the Director Compensation Table under “ —Summary of Cash and Other Compensation .”

232

If a non-executive director who elected to receive a stock grant in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers is no longer a director before such director’s interest in all of the Tornier ordinary shares underlying the stock grant have vested and become issuable, then such director will forfeit his or her rights to receive all of the shares underling such stock grant that have not vested and been issued as of the date such director’s status as a director so terminates. In such case, the non-executive director will receive in cash a pro rata portion of his or her annual cash retainers for the quarter in which the director’s status as a director terminates.

If a non-executive director who elected to receive a stock grant in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers becomes entitled to receive an increased or additional annual cash retainer during the period from July 1 to June 30 of the next year, such director will receive such increased or additional annual cash retainer in cash until July 1 of the next year when the director may elect (on or prior to June 15 of the next year) to receive a stock grant in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers.

If a non-executive director who elected to receive a stock grant in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers experiences a change in the director’s membership on one or more board committees or chair positions prior to June 30 of the next year such that the director becomes entitled to receive annual cash retainers for the period from July 1 to June 30 of the next year aggregating an amount less than the aggregate amount used to calculate the director’s most recent stock grant received, the director will forfeit as of the effective date of such board committee or chair change his or her rights to receive a pro rata portion of the shares underlying such stock grant reflecting the decrease in the director’s aggregate annual cash retainers and the date on which such decrease occurred. In addition, the vesting of the stock grant will be revised appropriately to reflect any such change in the number of shares underlying the stock grant and the date on which such change occurred.

Summary of Cash and Other Compensation

The table below summarizes the compensation received by Tornier’s non-executive directors for the year ended December 28, 2014. While Mr. Mowry did not receive additional compensation for his service as a director, a portion of his compensation was allocated to his service as a member of the Tornier board of directors. For more information regarding the allocation of Mr. Mowry’s compensation, please refer to note (1) to the Summary Compensation Table under “ Executive Compensation of Tornier—Executive Compensation Tables and Narrative—Summary Compensation .”

Unless a director otherwise elects to convert all of his or her annual retainers into stock awards (in the form of restricted stock units), annual retainers are paid in cash on a quarterly basis in arrears within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter. Four of Tornier’s non-executive directors elected to convert all of their annual retainers covering the period of service from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014 and the same four non-executive directors elected to convert their annual retainers covering the period of service from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015 into stock awards under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. Accordingly, these four non-executive directors were granted stock awards on August 9, 2013 and August 12, 2014 for that number of

233

Tornier ordinary shares as determined based on the following formula: (a) the aggregate dollar amount of all annual cash retainers that otherwise would have been payable to the non-executive director for services to be rendered as a non-executive director, chairman and chair or member of any board committee (based on such director’s board committee memberships and chair positions as of the grant date), divided by (b) the 10-trading day average closing sale price of a Tornier ordinary share, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, and as determined one week prior to the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award. Such stock awards vest and the underlying shares become issuable in four as nearly equal as possible quarterly installments, on September 30, December 31, March 31 and June 30, in each case so long as the non-executive director is a director of Tornier as of such date.

The table below sets forth: (a) the number of stock awards granted to each non-executive director on August 12, 2014; (b) the total amount of annual retainers converted by such director into stock awards; (c) of such total amount of annual retainers converted into stock awards, the amount attributed to the director’s service during 2014, which amount is included in the “Fees earned or paid in cash” column for each director; (d) the grant date fair value of the stock awards computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718; and (e) the incremental grant date fair value for the stock awards above and beyond the amount of annual retainers for 2014 service converted into stock awards computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718.

On August 12, 2014, each non-executive director received a stock award (in the form of a restricted stock unit) for 2,728 Tornier ordinary shares granted under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. The stock award vests and the underlying shares become issuable in two as nearly equal as possible annual installments, on the one-year and two-year anniversaries of the grant date, and in each case so long as the non-executive director is a director of Tornier as of such date. In addition, as described above in note (1), certain non-executive directors elected to convert their annual retainers covering the period of service from July 1, 2014 to

234

June 30, 2015 into stock awards under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. The amount reported in the “Stock awards” column represents the aggregate grant date fair value for the August 12, 2014 stock awards granted to each director in 2014 and for those directors who elected to convert their annual retainers covering the period of service from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015, the grant date fair value for the additional August 12, 2014 stock awards granted to such director in 2014, in each case as computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value for stock awards is determined based on the closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares on the grant date.

On August 12, 2014, each non-executive director received a stock option to purchase 6,034 Tornier ordinary shares at an exercise price of $21.66 per share granted under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. Such option expires on August 12, 2024 and vests with respect to one-half of the underlying Tornier ordinary shares on each of the following dates, so long as the individual remains a director of Tornier as of such date: August 12, 2015 and August 12, 2016. Amount reported in the “Option awards” column represents the aggregate grant date fair value for option awards granted to each non-executive director in 2014 computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value is determined based on Tornier’s Black-Scholes option pricing model. The grant date value per share for the option granted on August 12, 2014 was $9.87 and was determined using the following specific assumptions: risk free interest rate: 1.90%; expected life: 6.10 years; expected volatility: 45.10%; and expected dividend yield: 0.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION OF TORNIER

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

In this Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”), Tornier describes the key principles and approaches it uses to determine elements of compensation paid to, awarded to and earned by the following named executive officers, whose compensation is set forth in the Summary Compensation Table found later in this joint proxy statement/prospectus:

•

David H. Mowry, who serves as Tornier’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director and is referred to as Tornier’s “CEO” in this CD&A;

•

Shawn T McCormick, who serves as Tornier’s Chief Financial Officer;

•

Terry M. Rich, who serves as Tornier’s Senior Vice President, U.S. Commercial Operations.

•

Kevin M. Klemz, who serves as Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary; and

•

Gregory Morrison, who serves as Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources and HPMS.

This CD&A should be read in conjunction with the accompanying compensation tables, corresponding notes and narrative discussion, as they provide additional information and context to Tornier’s compensation disclosures.

Executive Summary

One of Tornier’s key executive compensation objectives is to link pay to performance by aligning the financial interests of Tornier’s executives with those of Tornier shareholders and by emphasizing pay for performance in Tornier’s compensation programs. Tornier believes it accomplishes this objective primarily through its annual cash incentive plan, which compensates executives for achieving annual corporate financial goals and, in the case of some executives, divisional financial goals and individual goals.

During 2014, Tornier made significant progress toward its strategic initiatives, including:

•

The transition of its U.S. sales organization. Tornier spent 2014 executing Phase 2 of its U.S. sales organization strategy, which includes the alignment of its sales representatives to focus on either upper or lower extremity products, the optimization of its sales territory structures, the hiring of additional sales representatives to fill territories and the education and training of its sales teams. Tornier achieved its goal of dedicating approximately 85% of its sales representatives to selling either upper extremity products or lower extremity products across the territories they serve. Additionally, Tornier completed the training of over 225 additional sales representatives during 2014, thereby achieving its goal of training a total of 200 sales representatives by the end of 2014.

•

The continued advancement of its product portfolio. During 2014, Tornier continued to make progress on building and expanding its global product portfolio, including in particular its Aequalis Ascend Flex convertible shoulder system, which continued to receive positive feedback and strong surgeon support during 2014 as Tornier experienced an increased level of competitive conversions across a broad range of customers.

Despite the disruption in Tornier’s U.S. sales channel as a result of the strategic initiative to establish separate sales channels that are individually focused on selling either upper extremity products or lower extremity products, Tornier’s 2014 financial performance was strong. Tornier’s total revenue was $345.0 million, representing growth of 11 percent over 2013 total revenue. Total extremities revenue was $286.7 million, also representing growth of 11 percent over 2013 total extremities revenue.

236

Tornier’s 2014 financial performance had the following impact on its pay programs:

•

Tornier’s adjusted total revenue, total extremities revenue and adjusted EBITDA substantially exceeded target goals, resulting in maximum or near maximum payouts for those goals under Tornier’s cash incentive plan. Tornier’s adjusted free cash flow was substantially below target and did not meet the threshold goal, resulting in no payout for that goal under Tornier’s cash incentive plan. Taking into account the weightings of the corporate performance goals, the total weighted average payout percentage applicable to the portion of the annual cash incentive bonus tied to corporate performance goals was 119% of target.

•

Executives with individual performance goals performed exceptionally well during 2014, resulting in a decision by the compensation committee to pay out for individual performance despite the fact that the threshold adjusted free cash flow metric was not met.

•

Overall 2014 plan payouts for named executive officers ranged from 115.2% to 137.6% of target.

•

Since most of Tornier’s executives’ pay is variable compensation tied to financial results or share price, and not fixed compensation, these cash incentive plan payouts, together with retention stock grants awarded to most of the named executive officers, resulted in actual total compensation for Tornier’s named executive officers above Tornier’s targeted range of 50 ^th to 75 ^th percentile of a group of similarly sized peer companies based on compensation benchmarking completed in 2014.

On October 27, 2014, Tornier entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Wright Medical Group, Inc. pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Tornier will merge with and into Wright, with Wright continuing as the surviving company and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Tornier following the transaction. Upon completion of the merger, Tornier shareholders will own approximately 48% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis and Wright shareholders will own approximately 52%. Following the closing of the transaction, the combined company will conduct business as Wright Medical Group N.V. and. Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s president and chief executive officer, will become president and chief executive officer of the combined company and David H. Mowry, Tornier’s president and chief executive officer, will become executive vice president and chief operating officer of the combined company. The transaction is subject to approval of Tornier and Wright shareholders, effectiveness of a Form S-4 registration statement filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission and regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions. The transaction is expected to be completed during the second or third quarter of 2015. Once completed, the proposed merger will constitute a “change in control” under Tornier’s stock incentive plan and executive employment agreements, resulting in immediate acceleration of vesting on all outstanding equity-based awards and change in control payments and benefits for those executives whose employment is terminated within 12 months of the completion of the merger. The change in control payments and benefits consist of a lump sum payment equal to one year of the executive’s base salary plus target bonus for the year of termination and health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months.

Compensation Highlights and Best Practices

Tornier’s compensation practices include many best pay practices that support Tornier’s executive compensation objectives and principles, and benefit its shareholders, such as the following:

•

Pay for performance. Tornier ties compensation directly to financial performance. Tornier’s annual cash incentive plan pays out only if certain minimum threshold levels of financial performance are met. For annual cash incentive awards, Tornier establishes threshold levels of performance for each performance measure that must be met for there to be a payout for that performance measure.

•

Bonus caps. Annual cash incentive awards have maximum levels of financial performance. At maximum or greater than maximum levels of performance, annual cash incentive plan payouts are capped at 150% of target.

237

•

Performance measure mix. Tornier uses a mix of performance measures within its annual cash incentive plan, including total revenue, total extremities revenue, EBITDA and free cash flow, in each case as adjusted.

•

At-risk pay. A significant portion of executives’ compensation is “performance-based” or “at risk.” For 2014, 76% of target total direct compensation was performance-based for the CEO, and between 70% and 76% of target total direct compensation for other named executive officers was performance-based, assuming grant date fair values for equity awards.

•

Equity-based pay. A significant portion of executives’ compensation is “equity-based” and in the form of stock-based incentive awards. For 2014, 57% of target total direct compensation for the CEO and between 51% and 67% of target total direct compensation for other named executive officers was equity-based, assuming grant date fair values for equity awards.

•

LTI grant guidelines. The Tornier board of directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, each year adopts long-term incentive guidelines for the grant of equity awards to employees under the Tornier N.V. 2010 Incentive Plan and caps total equity award dilution at 2.3% per year.

•

Four-year vesting. Value received under long-term equity-based incentive awards is tied to four-year vesting and any value received by executives from stock option grants is contingent upon long-term stock price performance in that stock options have value only if the market value of Tornier ordinary shares exceeds the exercise price of the options.

•

Clawback policy. Tornier’s stock incentive plan and related award agreements include a “clawback” mechanism to recoup incentive compensation if it is determined that executives engaged in certain conduct adverse to Tornier’s interests. In addition, Tornier’s annual cash incentive plan also contains a clawback provision.

•

No tax gross-ups. Tornier does not provide tax “gross-up” payments in connection with any compensation, benefits or perquisites provided to executives.

•

Limited perquisites. Tornier provides only limited perquisites to its executives.

•

Stock ownership guidelines. Tornier maintains stock ownership guidelines for all of its executives.

•

No hedging or pledging. Tornier prohibits its executives from engaging in hedging transactions, such as short sales, transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivatives, and pledging Tornier ordinary shares in any significant respect.

Say-on-Pay Vote

At Tornier’s 2014 annual general meeting of shareholders, Tornier shareholders had the opportunity to provide an advisory vote on the compensation paid to Tornier’s named executive officers, or a “say-on-pay” vote. Of the votes cast by Tornier shareholders, over 99% were in favor of Tornier’s “say-on-pay” proposal. Accordingly, the compensation committee generally believes that these results affirmed shareholder support of Tornier’s approach to executive compensation and did not believe it was necessary to make; and therefore, Tornier has not made, any significant changes to its executive pay program solely in response to that vote. In accordance with the result of the advisory vote on the frequency of the say-on-pay vote, which was conducted at Tornier’s 2011 annual general meeting of shareholders, the Tornier board of directors has determined that Tornier will conduct an executive compensation advisory vote every three years. Accordingly, the next say-on-pay vote will occur in 2017 in connection with Tornier’s 2017 annual general meeting of shareholders.

Compensation Objectives and Principles

Tornier’s executive compensation policies, plans and programs seek to enhance its profitability, and thus shareholder value, by aligning the financial interests of executives with those of Tornier shareholders and by emphasizing pay for performance. Specifically, Tornier’s executive compensation programs are designed to:

•

Attract and retain executives important to the success of Tornier and the creation of value for Tornier shareholders.

•

Reinforce Tornier’s corporate mission, vision and values.

•

Align the interests of executives with the interests of Tornier shareholders.

•

Reward executives for progress toward Tornier’s corporate mission and vision, the achievement of company performance objectives, the creation of shareholder value in the short and long term and the executives’ general contributions to the success of Tornier.

To achieve these objectives, the compensation committee makes pay decisions based on the following principles:

•

Base salary and total compensation levels will generally be targeted within the range of the 50 ^th to 75 ^th percentile of a group of similarly-sized peer companies. However, the competitiveness of any individual executive’s salary will be determined considering factors like the executive’s skills and capabilities, contributions as a member of the executive management team and contributions to Tornier’s overall performance. Pay levels will also reflect the sufficiency of total compensation potential and structure to ensure the retention of an executive when considering the executive’s compensation potential that may be available elsewhere.

•

At least two-thirds of the CEO’s compensation and half of other executives’ compensation opportunity should be in the form of variable compensation that is tied to financial results or share price.

•

The portion of total compensation that is performance-based or at-risk should increase with an executive’s overall responsibilities, job level and compensation. However, compensation programs should not encourage excessive risk-taking by executives.

•

A primary emphasis should be placed on company performance as measured against goals approved by the compensation committee rather than on individual performance.

•

At least half of the CEO’s compensation and one-third of other executives’ compensation opportunity should be in the form of stock-based incentive awards.

Executive Compensation Decision Making

Role of Compensation Committee and Board . The responsibilities of Tornier’s compensation committee include reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of executive officers, evaluating each executive’s performance in light of those goals and objectives and, either as a committee or together with the other directors, determining and approving each executive’s compensation, including performance-based compensation based on these evaluations (and, in the case of executives, other than the CEO, the CEO’s evaluation of such executive’s individual performance). Consistent with the Tornier shareholder-approved compensation policy for the Tornier board of directors, the compensation package for the CEO is determined by the non-executive directors, based upon recommendations from the compensation committee.

In setting or recommending executive compensation for named executive officers, the compensation committee considers the following primary factors:

•

each executive’s position within the company and the level of responsibility;

239

•

the ability of the executive to impact key business initiatives;

•

the executive’s individual experience and qualifications;

•

compensation paid to executives of comparable positions by companies similar to Tornier;

•

company performance, as compared to specific pre-established objectives;

•

individual performance, generally and as compared to specific pre-established objectives;

•

the executive’s current and historical compensation levels;

•

advancement potential and succession planning considerations;

•

an assessment of the risk that the executive would leave Tornier and the harm to its business initiatives if the executive left;

•

the retention value of executive equity holdings, including outstanding stock options and stock awards;

•

the dilutive effect on the interests of Tornier shareholders of long-term equity-based incentive awards; and

•

anticipated share-based compensation expense as determined under applicable accounting rules.

The compensation committee also considers the recommendations of the CEO with respect to executive compensation to be paid to other executives. The significance of any individual factor described above in setting executive compensation will vary from year to year and may vary among Tornier’s executives. In making its final decision regarding the form and amount of compensation to be paid to Tornier’s named executive officers (other than the CEO), the compensation committee considers and gives great weight to the recommendations of the CEO recognizing that due to his reporting and otherwise close relationship with each executive, the CEO often is in a better position than the compensation committee to evaluate the performance of each executive (other than himself). In making its final decision regarding the form and amount of compensation to be paid to the CEO, the compensation committee considers the results of the CEO’s self-review and his individual annual performance review by the compensation committee, benchmarking data gathered by Mercer and the recommendations of Tornier’s non-executive directors. The CEO’s compensation is approved by Tornier’s non-executive directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee.

Role of Management . Three members of Tornier’s executive team play a role in executive compensation process and regularly attend meetings of the compensation committee – the CEO, Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources and HPMS and Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary. The CEO assists the compensation committee primarily by making formal recommendations regarding the amount and type of compensation to be paid to executives (other than himself). In making these recommendations, the CEO considers many of the same factors listed above that the compensation committee considers in setting executive compensation, including in particular the results of each executive’s annual performance review and the executive’s achievement of his or her individual management performance objectives established in connection with Tornier’s annual cash incentive plan, described below. The Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources and HPMS assists the compensation committee primarily by gathering compensation related data regarding executives and coordinating the exchange of this information and other executive compensation information among the members of the compensation committee, the compensation committee’s compensation consultant and management in anticipation of compensation committee meetings. The Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary assists the compensation committee primarily by ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and educating the committee on executive compensation trends and best practices from a corporate governance perspective. Final deliberations and decisions regarding the compensation to be paid to each executive, however, are made by the Tornier board of directors or compensation committee without the presence of the executive.

Role of Consultant . The compensation committee has retained the services of Mercer to provide executive compensation advice. Mercer’s engagement by the compensation committee includes reviewing and advising on

240

all significant aspects of executive compensation. This includes base salaries, short-term cash incentives and long-term equity incentives for executives, and cash compensation and long-term equity incentives for non-executive directors. At the request of the compensation committee, each year, Mercer recommends a peer group of companies, collects relevant market data from these companies to allow the compensation committee to compare elements of Tornier’s compensation program to those of its peers, provides information on executive compensation trends and implications for Tornier and makes other recommendations to the compensation committee regarding certain aspects of its executive compensation program. Tornier’s management, principally the Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources and HPMS and the chair of the compensation committee, regularly consult with representatives of Mercer before compensation committee meetings. A representative of Mercer is invited on a regular basis to attend, and periodically attends, meetings of the compensation committee. In making its final decision regarding the form and amount of compensation to be paid to executives, the compensation committee considers the information gathered by and recommendations of Mercer. The compensation committee values Mercer’s benchmarking information and input regarding best practices and trends in executive compensation matters.

Use of Peer Group and Other Market Data . To help determine appropriate levels of compensation for certain elements of Tornier’s executive compensation program, the compensation committee reviews annually the compensation levels of Tornier’s named executive officers and other executives against the compensation levels of comparable positions with companies similar to Tornier in terms of products, operations and revenues. The elements of Tornier’s executive compensation program to which the compensation committee “benchmarks” or uses to base or justify a compensation decision or to structure a framework for compensating executives include base salary, short-term cash incentive opportunity and long-term equity incentives. With respect to other elements of Tornier’s executive compensation program, such as perquisites, severance and change in control arrangements, the compensation committee benchmarks these elements on a periodic or as needed basis and in some cases uses peer group or market data more as a “market check” after determining the compensation on some other basis. The compensation committee believes that compensation paid by peer group companies is more representative of the compensation required to attract, retain and motivate Tornier’s executive talent than broader survey data and that compensation paid by peer companies that are in the same business, with similar products and operations, and with revenues in a range similar to Tornier, generally provides more relevant comparisons.

In February 2013, Mercer worked with the compensation committee to identify a peer group of 16 companies that the compensation committee approved. Companies in the peer group are public companies in the health care equipment and supplies business with products and operations similar to those of Tornier that had annual revenues generally within the range of one-half to two times Tornier’s annual revenues. The peer group included the following companies:


Angiodynamics Inc.	Thoratec Corporation	Exactech, Inc.
Wright Medical Group, Inc.	Arthrocare Corporation	Cyberonics, Inc.
Volcano Corporation	Merit Medical Systems, Inc.	Alphatec Holdings, Inc.
Nuvasive, Inc.	ICU Medical, Inc.	Conceptus, Inc.
Orthofix International N.V. Masimo Corporation	NxStage Medical, Inc.	RTI Biologics, Inc.

241

The table below sets forth revenue and market capitalization information regarding the peer group and Tornier’s position within the peer group as of October 2013, which was the date Mercer used to compile an executive compensation analysis that the compensation committee used in connection with its recommendations and decisions regarding executive compensation for 2014:


	Annual revenue (in millions)			Market capitalization (in millions)
25 ^th percentile	$	248		$	434
Median		346			995
75 ^th percentile		421			1,267
Tornier		298			924
Percentile rank		38	%		47	%

In reviewing benchmarking data, the compensation committee recognizes that benchmarking may not always be appropriate as a stand-alone tool for setting compensation due to aspects of Tornier’s business and objectives that may be unique to Tornier. Nevertheless, the compensation committee believes that gathering this information is an important part of its compensation-related decision-making process. However, where a sufficient basis for comparison does not exist between the peer group data and an executive, the compensation committee gives less weight to the peer group data. For example, relative compensation benchmarking analysis does not consider individual specific performance or experience or other case-by-case factors that may be relevant in hiring or retaining a particular executive.

Market Positioning . In general, Tornier targets base salary and total compensation levels within the range of the 50th to 75th percentile of its peer group. However, the specific competitiveness of any individual executive’s pay will be determined considering factors like the executive’s skills and capabilities, contributions as a member of the executive management team and contributions to Tornier’s overall performance. The compensation committee will also consider the sufficiency of total compensation potential and the structure of pay plans to ensure the hiring or retention of an executive when considering the compensation potential that may be available elsewhere.

Executive Compensation Components

The principal elements of Tornier’s executive compensation program for 2014 were:

•

base salary;

•

short-term cash incentive compensation;

•

long-term equity-based incentive compensation, in the form of stock options and restricted stock unit awards; and

•

other compensation arrangements, such as benefits made generally available to Tornier’s other employees, limited and modest executive benefits and perquisites, and severance and change in control arrangements.

In determining the form of compensation for Tornier’s named executive officers, the compensation committee views these elements of Tornier’s executive pay program as related but distinct. The compensation committee does not believe that significant compensation derived by an executive from one element of Tornier’s compensation program should necessarily result in a reduction in the amount of compensation the executive receives from other elements or that minimal compensation derived from one element should necessarily result in an increase in the amount the executive should receive from one or more other elements of compensation.

Except as otherwise described in this CD&A, the compensation committee has not adopted any formal or informal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation between long-term and currently paid out

242

compensation, between cash and non-cash compensation, or among different forms of non-cash compensation. However, the compensation committee’s philosophy is to make a greater percentage of an executive’s compensation performance-based, and therefore at risk, as the executive’s position changes and responsibility increases given the influence more senior level executives generally have on company performance. Thus, individuals with greater roles and responsibilities associated with achieving Tornier’s objectives should bear a greater proportion of the risk that those goals are not achieved and should receive a greater proportion of the reward if objectives are met or surpassed. For example, this philosophy is illustrated by the higher annual cash incentive targets and long-term equity incentives of Tornier’s CEO compared to Tornier’s other executives. In addition, Tornier’s objective is that at least two-thirds of the CEO’s compensation and half of other executives’ compensation opportunity be in the form of variable compensation that is tied to financial results or share price and that at least half of the CEO’s compensation and one-third of other executives’ compensation opportunity be in the form of stock-based incentive awards.

The overall mix of annual base salaries, target annual cash incentive awards and grant date fair value long-term incentive awards as a percent of target total direct compensation for Tornier’s CEO and other named executive officers as a group for 2014 is provided below. The value of the long-term incentives represented is based on the grant date fair value of stock options and restricted stock unit awards granted during 2014. Actual long-term incentive value will be based on long-term stock price performance. Other compensation, including discretionary and contingent sign-on bonuses and perquisites, are excluded from the table below.

LOGO

Base Salary

Overview . Tornier provides a base salary for its named executive officers that, unlike some of the other elements of its executive compensation program, is not subject to company or individual performance risk. Tornier recognizes the need for most executives to receive at least a portion of their total compensation in the form of a guaranteed base salary that is paid in cash regularly throughout the year. Base salary amounts are established under each executive’s employment agreement, and are subject to subsequent upward adjustments by the compensation committee, or in the case of any executive who is also a director, the Tornier board of directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee.

Setting Initial Salaries for New Executives . Tornier initially fixes base salaries for executives at a level Tornier believes enables it to hire and retain them in a competitive environment and to reward satisfactory individual performance and a satisfactory level of contribution to its overall business objectives. Tornier did not hire any new executives during 2014.

243

Annual Salary Increases . Tornier reviews the base salaries of its named executive officers in the beginning of each year following the completion of its prior year individual performance reviews. If appropriate, Tornier may increase base salaries to recognize annual increases in the cost of living and superior individual performance and to ensure that its base salaries remain market competitive. Annual base salary increases as a result of cost of living adjustments and individual performance are referred to as “merit increases.” In addition, Tornier may make additional upward adjustments to an executive’s base salary to compensate the executive for assuming increased roles and responsibilities, to retain an executive at risk of recruitment by other companies, and/or to bring an executive’s base salary closer to the 50 ^th to 75 ^th percentile of companies in Tornier’s peer group. Tornier refers to these base salary increases as “market adjustments.”

The table below sets forth base salaries effective as of February 1, 2014, the percentage increases compared to 2013 base salaries, and the 2014 base salaries compared to the 50 ^th percentile of Tornier’s peer group for each of Tornier’s named executive officers who were executives at the time of the merit increase:


Name	2014 base salary ($)		2014 base salary % increase compared to 2013			2014 base salary compared to peer group 50 ^th percentile
David H. Mowry	$	550,000		22.2	%		6% below
Shawn T McCormick		365,456		3.0	%		7% above
Terry M. Rich		369,694		2.8	%		13% above
Kevin M. Klemz		332,868		10.0	%		3% above
Gregory Morrison		300,002		8.6	%		13% above

The merit increases for Tornier’s named executive officers who were executives at the time of the increase in February 2014 ranged from 2.8% to 4.0% over 2013 base salaries. The percentage merit increase for a particular executive largely depends upon the results of the executive’s performance review for the previous year. In addition to merit increases, Mr. Mowry, Mr. Klemz and Mr. Morrison received market adjustments to their base salaries. In evaluating the performance of Mr. Mowry and the amount of his 2014 base salary increase, the compensation committee considered Mr. Mowry’s self-review, discussed his performance, considered the benchmarking data gathered by Mercer and sought the input from the non-executive directors. In assessing the performance of Mr. Mowry, the compensation committee evaluated primarily his ability to achieve his goals and objectives and lead the company. Mr. Mowry’s percentage increase in base salary was to bring his base salary closer to the 50 ^th percentile. Even after such upward market adjustment, Mr. Mowry’s base salary was slightly below the 50 ^th percentile. The market adjustment for Mr. Klemz was intended to bring his base salary closer to the 50 ^th percentile and to compensate him for taking on additional responsibilities and the market adjustment for Mr. Morrison was intended to compensate him for taking on additional responsibilities.

2015 Base Salaries . In February 2015, Tornier set the following base salaries for 2015 for its named executive officers: Mr. Mowry ($572,000), Mr. McCormick ($377,333), Mr. Rich ($384,482), Mr. Klemz ($345,351) and Mr. Morrison ($312,002), representing merit increases between 3.25% and 4.0%. No upward market adjustments were made.

Short-Term Cash Incentive Compensation

Tornier’s short-term cash incentive compensation is paid as an annual cash payout under its corporate performance incentive plan. These payouts are intended to compensate executives, as well as other employees, for achieving annual corporate financial performance goals and, in some cases, divisional financial performance goals, and, in most cases, individual performance goals.

244

Target Payout Percentages . Target payouts were established under each named executive officer’s employment agreement at the time the agreements were entered into and are currently as follows for each named executive officer:


Name	Percentage of base salary
David H. Mowry		80	%
Shawn T McCormick		50	%
Terry M. Rich		75	%
Kevin M. Klemz		40	%
Gregory Morrison		40	%

The 2014 target bonus percentages for Tornier’s named executive officers did not change from their 2013 levels. Based on an executive compensation analysis by Mercer in October 2013, the target bonus percentages for Tornier’s named executive officers were either at or below the 50 ^th percentile for executives with similar positions in Tornier’s peer group, except in the case of Mr. Mowry, whose target bonus percentage of 80% is slightly above the 25 ^th percentile and below the 50 ^th percentile, Mr. Klemz whose target bonus percentage of 40% is below the 50 ^th percentile, and Mr. Rich, whose target bonus percentage of 75% is above the 75 ^th percentile. The compensation committee set Mr. Rich’s target bonus percentage at 75% to give him a competitive compensation package so Tornier could hire him from his prior employer.

Performance Goals and Actual Payouts . Payouts under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan to its named executive officers for 2014 were based upon achievement of corporate performance goals for all executives, divisional performance goals for one executive and individual performance goals for all executives, except Mr. Mowry and Mr. Rich.


Named executive officer	Percentage based upon corporate performance goals			Percentage based upon divisional performance goals			Percentage based upon individual performance goals
David H. Mowry		100	%		0	%		0	%
Shawn T McCormick		90	%		0	%		10	%
Terry Rich		40	%		60	%		0	%
Kevin M. Klemz		80	%		0	%		20	%
Gregory Morrison		80	%		0	%		20	%

The corporate performance metrics and their weightings for 2014 are set forth in the table below. These four corporate performance metrics were selected for 2014 because they were determined to be the four most important indicators of Tornier’s financial performance for 2014 as evaluated by management and analysts. Extremities revenue was weighted most heavily since that was intended to be Tornier’s greatest focus in 2014.


Corporate performance metric	Weighting
Adjusted extremities revenue		50	%
Adjusted EBITDA		20	%
Adjusted free cash flow		20	%
Adjusted total revenue		10	%

The table below sets forth the corporate performance goals for 2014, the range of possible payouts, and the actual payout percentage for Tornier’s named executive officers based on the actual performance achieved. In each case, the goals were adjusted for certain items, including changes to foreign currency exchange rates and items that are unusual and not reflective of normal operations. If performance falls below the threshold level, there is no payout for such performance metric. If performance falls between the threshold, target and maximum

245

levels, actual payout percentages are determined on a sliding scale basis, with payouts for each performance metric starting at 50% of target for threshold performance and capped at 150% of target for maximum achievement. For 2014, the total weighted-average payout percentage applicable to the portion of the 2014 annual cash incentive bonus tied to corporate performance goals was 119.5% of target since actual performance exceeded target for all performance goals except the adjusted free cash flow goal.

The performance goals were established based on an assumed foreign currency exchange rate. For revenue, Tornier assumed a foreign currency exchange rate of 1.277, which represented the actual reported average rate of foreign exchange in 2013. For all other performance goals, Tornier assumed a foreign currency exchange rate of 1.32 U.S. dollars for 1 Euro, which represented an anticipated average rate of foreign exchange for 2014 and which was the foreign currency exchange rate used by Tornier for 2014 budgeting purposes.

(2)

The compensation committee determined 2014 payouts after reviewing Tornier’s unaudited financial statements, which were adjusted for changes to foreign currency exchange rates and which were subject to additional discretionary adjustment by the compensation committee for items that are unusual and not reflective of normal operations. For purposes of determining 2014 payouts, in addition to foreign currency exchange rate adjustments, the compensation committee made additional adjustments discussed in the notes below. Accordingly, the figures included in the “2014 performance” column reflect foreign currency exchange rate and discretionary adjustments and differ from the figures reported in Tornier’s 2014 audited financial statements.

To foster cooperation and communication among executives, the compensation committee places primary emphasis on overall corporate and divisional performance goals rather than on individual performance goals. For named executive officers, at least 80% of their 2014 annual cash incentive plan payouts were determined based on the achievement of corporate and divisional performance goals and only 20% or less were based on achievement of individual performance goals. In addition, under the terms of the plan, no bonus payouts attributable to individual performance were to occur if the threshold adjusted cash flow corporate performance goal was not achieved. Executives with individual performance goals performed exceptionally well during 2014, resulting in a decision by the compensation committee to pay out for individual performance despite the fact that the threshold adjusted free cash flow metric was not met.

The individual performance goals used to determine payouts under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan are management by objectives, known internally as MBOs. MBOs are generally two to three written, specific and measurable objectives agreed to and approved by the executive, CEO and compensation committee in the beginning of the year. All MBOs were weighted, with areas of critical importance or critical focus weighted most heavily. Each of Tornier’s named executive officers participated in a review process during the beginning of 2015 and in connection with such review was rated (on a scale from one to four with a rating of three representing target or “on plan” performance) depending on whether, and at times, when, their MBOs for 2014 were achieved. These ratings were then used to determine the portion of the final bonus payout attributable to MBOs.

The MBOs for each named executive officer who had MBOs for 2014 are described in the table below. Most of the MBOs related primarily to the continued implementation of Tornier’s high performance management system (“HPMS”), which focuses executives’ efforts on Tornier’s vital programs, action items and objectives to work toward fulfilling its corporate mission, vision and values.


Name		2014 MBOs
Shawn T McCormick		• Financing alternatives analysis • Enterprise risk management readiness and deployment • Development of key performance indicators and monthly reporting dashboard

Kevin M. Klemz		• Global regulatory affairs organization improvements that align to Tornier’s global business strategies • Global legal function improvements

Gregory Morrison		• Timely and successful execution of HPMS vital few teams to include certain aspects intended to increase overall ratings within customer, employee and shareholder branches • Introduce and execute global human capital planning process that aligns to Tornier’s global business strategies • Drive specific human resources initiatives related to U.S. sales channel

The compensation committee determined that each of Messrs. McCormick, Klemz and Morrison achieved 87.5%, 112.5% and 100.0%, respectively, of their respective MBOs.

247

The table below sets forth, with respect to each named executive officer, the maximum potential bonus opportunity as a percentage of base salary and the actual bonus paid under the corporate performance incentive compensation plan for 2014, both in amount and as a percentage of 2014 base earnings:


Name	Maximum potential bonus as percentage of base salary		Actual bonus paid ($)		Actual bonus paid as a percentage of 2014 base earnings
David H. Mowry		120% (150% of 80%)	$	513,999		95.2	%
Shawn T McCormick		75% (150% of 50%)		211,098		57.9	%
Terry M. Rich		113% (150% of 75%)		380,525		103.2	%
Kevin M. Klemz		60% (150% of 40%)		155,344		47.1	%
Gregory Morrison		60% (150% of 40%)		137,194		46.1	%

In December 2014, the compensation committee accelerated the payment of a portion of the corporate performance incentive plan payout anticipated to be paid to Mr. Mowry based on Tornier’s preliminary and unaudited financial performance during 2014. The intent in making the accelerated payment to Mr. Mowry was to eliminate or reduce excess parachute payments under Code Section 280G which in turn eliminates or reduces excise tax liabilities and allows a greater portion of compensation to be tax deductible by Tornier, assuming Tornier’s proposed merger with Wright Medical Group, Inc. would be completed during 2015. The amount accelerated was $330,000, which represented 75 percent of Mr. Mowry’s target bonus payout. The remainder of Mr. Mowry’s payout, which final payout reflected the above-target actual performance for 2014, was paid in February 2015 when other payouts were made.

Corporate Performance Incentive Plan for 2015 . In February 2015, the Tornier board of directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, approved the material terms of the Tornier N.V. corporate performance incentive plan for 2015. In light of the proposed merger with Wright, the plan provides the compensation committee flexibility to shorten the plan year to a period less than the full fiscal year 2015. The 2015 target bonus percentages for named executive officers did not change from their 2014 levels, but payouts may be prorated depending upon the timing of the completion of the proposed merger with Wright. Consistent with the design for the 2014 plan, the payout under the 2015 corporate performance incentive plan for Tornier’s President and Chief Executive Officer will be based 100% upon achievement of corporate performance goals, with no divisional performance or individual performance components. The payouts for Tornier’s other named executive officers will be similar to 2014. The corporate performance measures under the plan for 2015 will be based on Tornier’s adjusted revenue (both total revenue and total extremities revenue), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow. The divisional performance measures for 2015 will be based on adjusted U.S. revenue for Mr. Rich. The material terms of the plan for 2015 are otherwise the same as the plan for 2014.

Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Compensation

Generally . The compensation committee’s primary objectives with respect to long-term equity-based incentives are to align the interests of executives with the long-term interests of Tornier shareholders, promote stock ownership and create significant incentives for executive retention. Long-term equity-based incentives typically comprise a significant portion of each named executive officer’s compensation package, consistent with Tornier’s executive compensation philosophy that at least half of the CEO’s compensation and one-third of other executives’ compensation opportunity should be in the form of stock-based incentive awards. For 2014, equity-based compensation comprised 57% of total compensation for Tornier’s CEO during the year and ranged from 51% to 67% of total compensation for Tornier’s other named executive officers, assuming grant date fair value for equity awards.

Before Tornier’s initial public offering in February 2011, Tornier granted stock options under Tornier’s prior stock option plan, which is now the Tornier N.V. Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan and referred to in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Tornier’s prior stock option plan. Since Tornier’s initial public offering, Tornier ceased making grants under Tornier’s prior stock option plan and subsequently has granted

248

stock options and other equity-based awards under the Tornier N.V. 2010 Incentive Plan, which is referred to in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Tornier’s stock incentive plan or the 2010 plan. Both the Tornier board of directors and Tornier shareholders have approved Tornier’s stock incentive plan, under which named executive officers (as well as other executives and key employees) are eligible to receive equity-based incentive awards. For more information on the terms of Tornier’s stock incentive plan, see “ Executive Compensation of Tornier—Grants of Plan-Based Awards—Tornier N.V. 2010 Incentive Plan .” All equity-based incentive awards granted to named executive officers during 2014 were made under Tornier’s stock incentive plan.

To assist the Tornier board of directors in granting, and the compensation committee and management in recommending the grant of, equity-based incentive awards, the compensation committee, in April 2014, on Mercer’s recommendation, adopted long-term incentive grant guidelines. In addition to long-term incentive grant guidelines, the Tornier board of directors adopted a stock grant policy document, which includes policies that the Tornier board of directors and compensation committee follow in connection with granting equity-based incentive awards, including the long-term incentive grant guidelines.

Types of Equity Grants . Under Tornier’s long-term incentive grant guidelines and policy document, the Tornier board of directors, on recommendation of the compensation committee, generally grants three types of equity-based incentive awards to named executive officers: performance recognition grants, talent acquisition grants and special recognition grants. On limited occasion, the Tornier board of directors, on recommendation of the compensation committee, may grant purely discretionary awards. During 2014, performance recognition grants and discretionary grants were made to one or more of Tornier’s named executive officers, as described in more detail below under “—2014 Equity Awards.”

Performance recognition grants are discretionary annual grants that are made during mid-year to give the compensation committee another formal opportunity during the year to review executive compensation and recognize executive and other key employee performance. In July 2014, the performance recognition grants were approved by the Tornier board of directors, on recommendation of the compensation committee, but the grant date of the awards was effective as of the third full trading day after the release of Tornier’s second quarter earnings in August 2014. The recipients and size of the performance recognition grants were determined, on a preliminary basis, by each executive with input from their management team and based on Tornier’s long-term incentive grant guidelines and the 10-trading day average closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Grants were determined one week before the corporate approval of the awards, and then ultimately approved by the Tornier board of directors, on recommendation by the compensation committee. Under Tornier’s long-term incentive grant guidelines for annual performance recognition grants, named executive officers received a certain percentage of their respective base salaries in stock options and stock grant awards (in the form of restricted stock units and referred to as stock awards or RSUs in this CD&A and elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus), as set forth in more detail in the table below.

Once the target total long-term equity value was determined for each executive based on the executive’s relevant percentage of base salary, half of the value was provided in stock options and the other half was provided in stock awards. The reasons why Tornier uses stock options and stock awards are described below under “— Stock Options ” and “— Stock Awards .” The target dollar value to be delivered in stock options (50% of the target total long-term equity value) was divided by the Black-Scholes value of one Tornier ordinary share to determine the number of stock options, which then was rounded to the nearest whole number or in some cases multiple of 100. The number of stock awards was calculated using the intended dollar value (50% of the target total long-term equity value) divided by the 10-trading day average closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market and was determined one week before the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award, which number was then rounded to the nearest whole number or in some cases multiple of 100. Typically, the number of Tornier ordinary shares subject to stock awards is fewer than the number of Tornier ordinary shares that would have been covered by a stock option of equivalent target value. The actual number of stock options and stock awards granted may then be pared back so that the estimated run

249

rate dilution under Tornier’s stock incentive plan is acceptable to the compensation committee (i.e., approximately 2.7% for 2014). The CEO next reviewed the preliminary individual awards and had the opportunity to make recommended discretionary adjustments. The proposed individual awards were then presented to the compensation committee, which also had the opportunity to make discretionary adjustments before recommending awards to the Tornier board of directors for approval. Neither the CEO nor the compensation committee made any discretionary adjustments to awards granted to the named executive officers during 2014. After board approval, awards were issued, with the exercise price of the stock options equal to the closing price of Tornier ordinary shares on the grant date. In determining the number of stock options or stock awards to make to an executive as part of a performance recognition grant, previous awards, whether vested or unvested, granted to such individual had no impact.

The table below describes Tornier’s long-term incentive grant guidelines for annual performance recognition grants that applied to Tornier’s named executive officers for 2014.


Named executive officer	Grade level		Incentive grant guideline expressed as % of base salary for grade level			Incentive grant guideline dollar value of long-term incentives ($)
David H. Mowry		11		250	%	$	1,375,000
Shawn T McCormick		9		125	%		450,985
Terry M. Rich		8		125	%		462,118
Kevin M. Klemz		8		125	%		416,085
Gregory Morrison		8		125	%		375,003

Consistent with the principle that the interests of Tornier’s executives should be aligned with those of its shareholders and that the portion of an executive’s total compensation that varies with performance and is at risk should increase with the executive’s level of responsibility, incentive grants, expressed as a percentage of base salary and dollar values, increase as an executive’s level of responsibility increases. The incentive grant guidelines were benchmarked by Mercer against Tornier’s peer group.

Performance recognition grants also may be made in connection with the promotion of an individual. When a performance recognition grant is made in connection with the promotion of an individual, the amount of the grant is usually based on the pro rata difference between the long-term incentive grant guideline for the new position compared to the long-term incentive grant guideline for the prior position. No promotional grants were made during 2014.

Talent acquisition grants are made in stock options and stock awards, and are used for new hires. These grants are considered and approved by the Tornier board of directors, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, as part of the executive’s compensation package at the time of hire (with the grant date and exercise price delayed until the hire date or the first open window period after board approval of the grant). As with Tornier’s performance recognition grants, the size of Tornier’s talent acquisition grants is determined by dollar amount (as opposed to number of underlying shares), and under Tornier’s long-term incentive grant guidelines, is generally two times the long-term incentive grant guidelines for annual performance recognition grants, as recommended by Mercer. Tornier recognizes that higher initial grants often are necessary to attract a new executive, especially one who may have accumulated a substantial amount of equity-based long-term incentive awards at a previous employer that would typically be forfeited upon acceptance of employment with Tornier. In some cases, Tornier may need to further increase a talent acquisition grant to attract an executive. No talent acquisitions grants were made during 2014.

In addition to Tornier’s annual and promotional performance recognition grants and talent acquisition grants, from time to time, Tornier may make special recognition grants or discretionary grants to executive officers for retention or other purposes. Such grants may vest based on the passage of time and/or the achievement of certain performance goals, such as those based on Tornier’s revenue, expenses, profitability,

250

productivity, cash flows, asset utilization, shareholder return, share price and other similar performance measures. For example, as described in more detail below under “—2014 Equity Awards ,” in February 2014, stock awards in the form of restricted stock units were granted to certain of Tornier’s executive officers, the vesting of which is based on the passage of time or, if earlier, the achievement of certain minimum share price triggers.

Stock Options . Historically, Tornier has granted stock options to named executive officers, as well as other key employees. Tornier believes that options effectively incentivize employees to maximize company performance, as the value of awards is directly tied to an appreciation in the value of Tornier ordinary shares. They also provide an effective retention mechanism because of vesting provisions. An important objective of Tornier’s long-term incentive program is to strengthen the relationship between the long-term value of Tornier ordinary shares and the potential financial gain for employees. Stock options provide recipients with the opportunity to purchase Tornier ordinary shares at a price fixed on the grant date regardless of future market price. The vesting of Tornier’s stock options is generally time-based. Consistent with Tornier’s historical practice, 25% of the shares underlying the stock option typically vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant date (or if later, on the hire date) and the remaining 75% of the underlying shares vest over a three-year period thereafter in 12 nearly equal quarterly installments. Tornier’s policy is to grant options only with an exercise price equal to or more than the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share on the grant date.

Because stock options become valuable only if the share price increases above the exercise price and the option holder remains employed during the period required for the option to vest, they provide an incentive for an executive to remain employed. In addition, stock options link a portion of an employee’s compensation to the interests of Tornier shareholders by providing an incentive to achieve corporate goals and increase the market price of Tornier ordinary shares over the four-year vesting period.

Tornier times its option grants to occur on the third trading day after the public release of its financial results for its most recently ended quarter. As a Dutch company, Tornier must comply with Dutch insider trading laws which prohibit option grants when Tornier is aware of material nonpublic information.

Stock Awards . Stock awards are intended to retain key employees, including named executive officers, through vesting periods. Stock awards provide the opportunity for capital accumulation and more predictable long-term incentive value than stock options. All of Tornier’s stock awards are stock grants in the form of restricted stock units, which is a commitment by Tornier to issue Tornier ordinary shares at the time the stock award vests. The specific terms of vesting of a stock award depend on whether the award is a performance recognition grant or talent acquisition grant. Performance recognition grants of stock awards are made mid-year and vest in four annual installments on June 1 ^st of each year. Talent acquisition grants of stock awards to new hires vest in a similar manner, except that the first installment is often pro-rated, depending on the grant date.

2014 Equity Awards . The Tornier board of directors, on recommendation of the compensation committee, made annual performance recognition grants and discretionary retention grants to one or more of Tornier’s named executive officers during 2014. The table below describes the annual performance recognition grants

251

made to Tornier’s named executive officers in 2014 and the applicable long-term incentive grant guideline for such performance recognition grants for these executives.


Named executive officer	Stock options		Stock awards		Value of long-term incentive grant guideline ⁽¹⁾ ($)
David H. Mowry		66,373		30,009	$	1,375,000
Shawn T McCormick		22,051		9,970		450,985
Terry M. Rich		22,307		10,085		462,118
Kevin M. Klemz		20,085		9,081		416,085
Gregory Morrison		18,102		8,184		375,003

The value per long-term incentive grant guideline of the annual performance recognition grants is based on the value calculated under Tornier’s long-term incentive grant guidelines and does not necessarily match the grant date fair value of the equity awards under applicable accounting rules and as set forth in the Grants of Plan Based Awards Table later in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

In February 2014, stock grants, in the form of restricted stock units, were awarded to certain of Tornier’s executives, including four of Tornier’s named executive officers. The purpose of the grants was to retain and motivate Tornier’s executives in light of the fact that: (1) the continuity of Tornier’s executive team is important for executing Tornier’s current strategic plan; (2) such executives received minimal corporate performance incentive plan payouts for 2013; (3) the vast majority of previously granted stock options held by such executives were then currently “underwater” and thus offered minimal retention value; and (4) the outstanding long-term equity incentive value for Tornier’s executives is below the median for all positions compared to Tornier’s peer group and below the 25th percentile in some cases.

The retention restricted stock units vest based on the passage of time, with 50% of the underlying shares vesting and becoming issuable on the two-year anniversary of the grant date, 25% on the three-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 25% on the four-year anniversary of the grant date, or, if earlier, upon the achievement of certain minimum share price triggers. The share price triggers were measured based on a 30-day average closing price of Tornier ordinary shares. In November 2014, a portion of these retention restricted stock units vested as a result of the trading price of Tornier ordinary shares.

The following named executive officers received the following number of retention restricted stock units: Mr. McCormick (12,500); Mr. Klemz (25,000); Mr. Morrison (25,000); and Mr. Rich (12,500). Mr. Mowry did not receive any retention restricted stock unit grants since it was his recommendation to make the grants, he did not recommend a grant for himself and the compensation committee did not believe he represented a retention risk. The number of retention restricted stock units granted to each named executive officer was determined based on a comparison of the value of their then current long-term equity incentives and their respective long-term incentive grant guideline.

Additional information concerning the long-term incentive compensation information for Tornier’s named executive officers for 2014 is included in the Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table later in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

All Other Compensation

Retirement Benefits . In 2014, each of Tornier’s named executive officers had the opportunity to participate in retirement plans maintained by Tornier’s operating subsidiaries, including its U.S. operating subsidiary’s 401(k) plan, on the same basis as Tornier’s other employees. Tornier believes that these plans provide an enhanced opportunity for executives to plan for and meet their retirement savings needs. Except for these plans, Tornier does not provide pension arrangements or post-retirement health coverage for its employees, including

252

named executive officers. Tornier also does not provide any nonqualified defined contribution or other deferred compensation plans.

Perquisites and Other Benefits . Tornier’s named executive officers receive other benefits, which also are provided to Tornier’s other employees, including the opportunity to purchase Tornier ordinary shares at a discount with payroll deductions under Tornier’s tax-qualified employee stock purchase plan, and health, dental and life insurance benefits. Tornier provides additional modest perquisites to its named executive officers, only on a case-by-case basis.

Change in Control and Post-Termination Severance Arrangements

Change in Control Arrangements . To encourage continuity, stability and retention when considering the potential disruptive impact of an actual or potential corporate transaction, Tornier has established change in control arrangements, including provisions in its prior stock option plan, current stock incentive plan and written employment agreements with its executives and other key employees. These arrangements are designed to incentivize its executives to remain with Tornier in the event of a change in control or potential change in control. Tornier’s proposed merger with Wright will constitute a change in control under these arrangements.

Under the terms of Tornier’s current stock incentive plan and the individual award documents provided to recipients of awards under that plan, all stock options and stock awards become immediately vested (and, in the case of options, exercisable) upon the completion of a change in control of Tornier. For more information, see “Executive Compensation of Tornier—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control—Change in Control Arrangements—Generally .” Thus, the immediate vesting of stock options and stock awards is triggered by the change in control, itself, and thus is known as a “single trigger” change in control arrangement. Tornier believes its “single trigger” equity acceleration change in control arrangements provide important retention incentives during what can often be an uncertain time for employees. They also provide executives with additional monetary motivation to focus on and complete a transaction that the Tornier board of directors believes is in the best interests of the Tornier shareholders rather than to seek new employment opportunities. If an executive were to leave before the completion of the change in control, non-vested awards held by the executive would terminate.

In addition, Tornier has entered into employment agreements with its named executive officers and other officers to provide certain payments and benefits in the event of a change in control, most of which are payable only in the event their employment is terminated in connection with the change in control (“double-trigger” provisions). These change in control protections were initially offered to induce the executives to accept or continue employment with Tornier, provide consideration to executives for certain restrictive covenants that apply following termination of employment and provide continuity of management in connection with a threatened or actual change in control transaction. If an executive’s employment is terminated without cause or by the executive for “good reason” (as defined in the employment agreements) within 12 months following a change in control, the executive will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to his or her base salary plus target bonus for the year of termination, health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months following termination and accelerated vesting of all unvested options and stock awards. These arrangements, and a quantification of the payment and benefits provided under these arrangements, are described in more detail under “ Executive Compensation of Tornier—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control—Change in Control Arrangements .” Other than the immediate acceleration of equity-based awards which Tornier believes aligns its executives’ interests with those of Tornier shareholders by allowing executives to participate fully in the benefits of a change in control as to all of their equity, in order for a named executive officer of Tornier to receive any other payments or benefits as a result of a change in control of Tornier, there must be a termination of the executive’s employment, either by Tornier without cause or by the executive for good reason. The termination of the executive’s employment by the executive without good reason will not give rise to additional payments or benefits either in a change in control situation or otherwise. Thus, these additional payments and benefits will not just be triggered by a change in control, but also will require a termination event not within the

253

control of the executive, and thus are known as “double trigger” change in control arrangements. As opposed to the immediate acceleration of equity-based awards, Tornier believes that other change in control payments and benefits should properly be tied to termination following a change in control, given the intent that these amounts provide economic security to ease in the executive’s transition to new employment.

Tornier believes its change in control arrangements are an important part of its executive compensation program in part because they mitigate some of the risk for executives working in a smaller company where there is a meaningful likelihood that the company may be acquired. Change in control benefits are intended to attract and retain qualified executives who, absent these arrangements and in anticipation of a possible change in control of Tornier, might consider seeking employment alternatives to be less risky than remaining with Tornier through the transaction. Tornier believes that relative to the company’s overall value, Tornier’s potential change in control benefits are relatively small. Tornier confirms this belief by reviewing a tally sheet for each executive that summarizes the change in control and severance benefits potentially payable to each executive. Tornier also believes that the form and amount of such benefits are reasonable in light of those provided to executives by companies in Tornier’s peer group and other companies with which Tornier competes for executive talent and the amount of time typically required to find executive employment opportunities. Tornier, thus, believes it must continue to offer such protections in order to remain competitive in attracting and retaining executive talent.

Other Severance Arrangements . Each of Tornier’s named executive officers is entitled to receive severance benefits upon certain other qualifying terminations of employment, other than a change in control, pursuant to the provisions of such executive’s employment agreement. These severance arrangements were initially offered to induce the executives to accept or continue employment with Tornier and are primarily intended to retain Tornier’s executives and provide consideration to those executives for certain restrictive covenants that apply following termination of employment. Additionally, Tornier entered into the employment agreements because they provide Tornier valuable protection by subjecting the executives to restrictive covenants that prohibit the disclosure of confidential information during and following their employment and limit their ability to engage in competition with Tornier or otherwise interfere with its business relationships following their termination of employment. For more information on Tornier’s employment agreements and severance arrangements with its named executive officers, see the discussions below under “ —Executive Compensation Tables and Narrative—Summary Compensation—Employment Agreements” and “—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control .”

Stock Ownership Guidelines

In February 2014, Tornier established stock ownership guidelines that are intended to further align the interests of Tornier’s executive officers with those of its shareholders. Stock ownership targets for each of Tornier’s executive officers has been set at that number of Tornier ordinary shares with a value equal to a multiple of the executive’s annual base salary, with the multiple equal to three times for Tornier’s CEO and one and one-half times for Tornier’s other executive officers. Each of the executive officers has five years from the date of hire or, if the ownership multiple has increased during his or her tenure, five years from the date established in connection with such increase to reach his or her stock ownership targets. Until the applicable stock ownership target is achieved, each executive subject to the guidelines is required to retain an amount equal to 75% of the net shares received as a result of the exercise of stock options or the vesting of restricted stock units. If there is a significant decline in the price of Tornier’s ordinary shares that causes executives to be out of compliance, such executives will be subject to the 75% retention ratio, but will not be required to purchase additional shares to meet the applicable targets.

Tornier’s compensation committee reports on compliance with the guidelines at least annually to the Tornier board of directors. Stock ownership targets are evaluated and adjusted as necessary on January 1st each year and also whenever an executive’s annual base salary changes. As of January 1, 2015, all of Tornier’s executives met their respective individual stock ownership guideline.

254

Anti-Hedging and Pledging

Tornier’s code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality prohibits Tornier’s executive officers from engaging in hedging transactions, such as short sales, transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivatives, and pledging Tornier ordinary shares in any significant respect.

Clawback Policy

Tornier’s stock incentive plan and corporate performance incentive plan contain “clawback” provisions. Under Tornier’s stock incentive plan, if an executive is determined by the compensation committee to have taken action that would constitute “cause” or an “adverse action,” as those terms are defined in the plan, during or within one year after the termination of the executive’s employment, all rights of the executive under the plan and any agreements evidencing an award then held by the executive will terminate and be forfeited. In addition, the compensation committee may require the executive to surrender and return to Tornier any shares received, and/or to disgorge any profits or any other economic value made or realized by the executive in connection with any awards or any shares issued upon the exercise or vesting of any awards during or within one year after the termination of the executives employment or other service. Under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan, the compensation committee may require an executive to reimburse Tornier for incentive based compensation if: (a) the payment was predicated upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a material financial restatement, (b) in the compensation committee’s view, the executive engaged in fraud or misconduct that caused or partially caused the need for a material financial restatement, and (c) a lower payment would have occurred based upon the restated financial results.

Compensation Committee Report

Tornier’s compensation committee has reviewed and discussed the foregoing “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” with Tornier’s management. Based on this review and these discussions, Tornier’s compensation committee has recommended to the Tornier board of directors that the foregoing “— Compensation Discussion and Analysis ” be included in Tornier’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2014.

Employment Agreements . Tornier, through one of its operating subsidiaries, typically executes employment agreements in conjunction with the hiring or promotion of an executive officer. Tornier’s named executive officers are generally compensated by the operating subsidiaries to which such named executive officers primarily provided services. Tornier, Inc., Tornier’s primary U.S. operating subsidiary, is a party to employment agreements with all of the named executive officers, which agreements are substantially the same, other than differences in base salary, target annual bonus percentages and severance. Each of the employment agreements has a specified term of three years and is subject to automatic renewal for one-year terms unless either Tornier or the executive provides 60 days’ advance notice of a desire not to renew the agreement. Under each of the agreements, each executive is entitled to a specified base salary, subject to increase but not decrease, is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus with a target bonus equal to a specified percentage of base salary, and is entitled to

257

participate in the employee benefit plans and arrangements that Tornier generally maintains for its senior executives. The employment agreements also contain severance provisions which are described under “—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control ” and covenants intended to protect against the disclosure of confidential information during and following employment, as well as restrictions on engaging in competition with Tornier or otherwise interfering with its business relationships, which extend through the one-year anniversary of an executive’s termination of employment for any reason. With respect to certain executives, the employment agreements provide for certain limited additional benefits, which are described in more detail under “ —Perquisites and Personal Benefits .”

Equity and Non-Equity Incentive Compensation . During 2014, Tornier’s named executive officers received grants of stock options and stock awards under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. These grants and Tornier’s stock incentive plan are described in more detail under “— Compensation Discussion and Analysis ” and “ —Grants of Plan-Based Awards. ” Tornier’s named executive officers also received annual cash incentive bonuses under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan for their 2014 performance. The bonus amounts and these plans are described in more detail under “— Compensation Discussion and Analysis ” and “ —Grants of Plan-Based Awards. ”

Retirement Benefits . Under the Tornier, Inc. 401(k) Plan, participants, including Tornier’s named executive officers, may voluntarily request that Tornier reduce his or her pre-tax compensation and contribute such amounts to the 401(k) plan’s trust up to certain statutory maximums. Tornier contributes matching contributions in an amount equal to 3% of the participant’s eligible earnings for a pay period, or if less, 50% of the participant’s pre-tax 401(k) contributions (other than catch-up contributions) for that pay period. Except for Tornier’s French operating subsidiary’s government-mandated pension plan and a government-mandated pension plan for managerial staff, Tornier does not provide pension arrangements or post-retirement health coverage for Tornier’s employees, including Tornier’s named executive officers. Tornier also does not provide any nonqualified defined contribution or other deferred compensation plans.

Perquisites and Personal Benefits . Tornier does not provide perquisites and personal benefits to its executives, other than housing or temporary living stipends to new executives and an automobile allowance to an executive who is not a named executive officer. The only benefits that Tornier’s named executive officers receive are benefits that are also received by Tornier’s other employees, including the retirement benefits described above, an ability to purchase Tornier ordinary shares at a discount with payroll deductions under Tornier’s employee stock purchase plan and medical, dental, vision and life insurance benefits.

Indemnification Agreements . Tornier has entered into indemnification agreements with all of its named executive officers. The indemnification agreements are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware (USA) and provide, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and Tornier’s articles of association against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and liabilities, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the executive or on his or her behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom. Tornier will be obligated to pay these amounts only if the executive acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Tornier, and, with respect to any criminal action, suit or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The indemnification agreements provide that the executive will not be indemnified and advanced expenses (i) with respect to an action, suit or proceeding initiated by the executive unless so authorized by the Tornier board of directors or (ii) with respect to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the executive to enforce or interpret the indemnification agreement unless the executive is successful in establishing a right to indemnification in such action, suit or proceeding, in whole or in part, or unless and to the extent that the court in such action, suit or proceeding determines that, despite the executive’s failure to establish the right to indemnification, he or she is entitled to indemnity for such expenses. The indemnification agreements also set forth procedures that apply in the event of a claim for indemnification.

(1)

With respect to stock awards and option awards, the grant date was not necessarily the board approval date since the grant date was the third full trading day after the public release of Tornier’s then most recent financial results. With respect to newly hired officers, the grant date may be the first day of their employment.

(2)

Represents amounts payable under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan for 2014, which was approved by the Tornier board of directors on February 13, 2014. The actual amounts paid under the corporate performance incentive plan are reflected in the “Non-equity incentive compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table.

(3)	The threshold amount for awards payable under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan assumes the satisfaction of the threshold level of the lowest weighted financial performance goal.

(4)	Maximum amounts reflect payout of the portion of Tornier’s annual cash incentive bonus tied to corporate financial performance goals at a maximum rate of 150% of target and the portion of Tornier’s annual cash

259

incentive bonus tied to individual performance goals at a rate of 100% of target under Tornier’s corporate performance incentive plan.

(5)

Represents stock grants in the form of restricted stock units granted under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. The restricted stock units granted on February 26, 2014 vest and become issuable over time, with the last tranche becoming issuable on February 26, 2018 or earlier if certain share price targets are met, and in each case, so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of Tornier. The restricted stock units granted on August 12, 2014 vest and become issuable over time, with the last tranche becoming issuable on June 1, 2018, in each case, so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of Tornier.

(6)

Represents options granted under Tornier’s stock incentive plan. All options have a ten-year term and vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the underlying shares vesting on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying shares vesting over a three-year period thereafter in 12 as nearly equal as possible quarterly installments.

(7)	See notes (3) and (4) to the Summary Compensation Table for a discussion of the assumptions made in calculating the grant date fair value of stock awards and option awards.

Tornier N.V. Corporate Performance Incentive Plan . Under the terms of the Tornier N.V. corporate performance incentive plan, Tornier’s named executive officers, as well as other employees of Tornier, earn annual cash incentive bonuses based on Tornier’s financial performance and individual objectives. The material terms of the plan are described in detail under “— Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Short-Term Cash Incentive Compensation .”

Tornier N.V. 2010 Incentive Plan . At Tornier’s general meeting of shareholders on August 26, 2010, the Tornier shareholders approved the Tornier N.V. 2010 incentive plan, which permits the grant of a wide variety of equity awards to Tornier’s employees, including Tornier’s employees, directors and consultants, including incentive and non-qualified options, stock appreciation rights, stock grants, stock unit grants, cash-based awards and other stock-based awards. Tornier’s stock incentive plan is designed to assist Tornier in attracting and retaining Tornier’s employees, directors and consultants, provide an additional incentive to such individuals to work to increase the value of Tornier ordinary shares, and provide such individuals with a stake in Tornier’s future which corresponds to the stake of each of the Tornier shareholders.

The Tornier shareholders approved an amendment to the stock incentive plan on June 27, 2012 to increase the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan. The stock incentive plan, as amended, reserves for issuance a number of Tornier ordinary shares equal to the sum of (i) the number of Tornier ordinary shares available for grant under Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of February 2, 2011 (not including issued or outstanding shares granted pursuant to options under Tornier’s prior stock option plan as of such date); (ii) the number of Tornier ordinary shares forfeited upon the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture, cash settlement or other termination following February 2, 2011 of an option outstanding as of February 2, 2011 under Tornier’s prior stock option plan; and (iii) 2.7 million. As of December 28, 2014, 1.6 million Tornier ordinary shares remained available for grant under the stock incentive plan, and there were 6.1 million Tornier ordinary shares covering outstanding awards under such plan as of such date. For purposes of determining the remaining Tornier ordinary shares available for grant under the stock incentive plan, to the extent that an award expires or is cancelled, forfeited, settled in cash, or otherwise terminated without a delivery to the participant of the full number of Tornier ordinary shares to which the award related, the undelivered Tornier ordinary shares will again be available for grant. Similarly, Tornier ordinary shares withheld or surrendered in payment of an exercise price or taxes relating to an award under the stock incentive plan will be deemed to constitute shares not delivered to the participant and will be deemed to again be available for awards under the stock incentive plan. The total number of Tornier ordinary shares available for issuance under the stock incentive plan and the number of Tornier ordinary shares subject to outstanding awards are subject to adjustment in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, liquidation, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, rights offering, divestiture or extraordinary dividend (including a spin off) or any other similar change in Tornier’s corporate structure or Tornier ordinary shares.

260

The Tornier board of directors has the ability to amend the stock incentive plan or any awards granted thereunder at any time, provided that, certain amendments are subject to approval by Tornier shareholders and subject to certain exceptions, no amendment may adversely affect any outstanding award without the consent of the affected participant. The Tornier board of directors also may suspend or terminate the stock incentive plan at any time, and, unless sooner terminated, the stock incentive plan will terminate on August 25, 2020.

Under the terms of the stock incentive plan, stock options must be granted with a per share exercise price equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share on the grant date. For purposes of the plan, the fair market value of a Tornier ordinary share is the closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Tornier sets the per share exercise price of all stock options granted under the plan at an amount at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of Tornier ordinary shares on the grant date. Options become exercisable at such times and in such installments as may be determined by the Tornier board of directors or compensation committee, provided that most options may not be exercisable after 10 years from their grant date. The vesting of Tornier’s stock options is generally time-based and is as follows: 25% of the shares underlying the stock option vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying shares vest over a three-year period thereafter in 12 as nearly equal as possible quarterly installments, in each case so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of Tornier.

Currently, optionees must pay the exercise price of stock options in cash, except that Tornier’s compensation committee may allow payment to be made (in whole or in part) by a “cashless exercise” effected through an unrelated broker through a sale on the open market, by a “net exercise” of the option, or by a combination of such methods. In the case of a “net exercise” of an option, Tornier will not require a payment of the exercise price of the option from the grantee but will reduce the number of Tornier ordinary shares issued upon the exercise by the largest number of whole shares that has a fair market value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price for the shares exercised under this method.

Under the terms of the grant certificates under which stock options have been granted to the named executive officers, if an executive’s employment or service with Tornier terminates for any reason, the unvested portion of the option will immediately terminate and the executive’s right to exercise the then vested portion of the option will: (i) immediately terminate if the executive’s employment or service relationship with Tornier terminated for cause; (ii) continue for a period of one year if the executive’s employment or service relationship with Tornier terminated as a result of his or her death or disability; or (iii) continue for a period of 90 days if the executive’s employment or service relationship with Tornier terminated for any reason, other than for cause or upon death or disability.

Stock grants under the plan are made in the form of restricted stock units and assuming the recipient continuously provides services to Tornier (whether as an employee or as a consultant) typically vest and the Tornier ordinary shares underlying such grants are issued over time. The specific terms of vesting of a stock grant depend upon whether the award is a performance recognition grant, talent acquisition grant, special recognition grant or discretionary grant. Performance recognition grants are typically made in mid-year and vest, or become issuable, in four as nearly equal as possible annual installments on June 1st of each year. Promotional performance recognition grants and talent acquisition grants granted to promoted employees and new employees and special recognition grants vest in a similar manner, except that the first installment is pro-rated, depending upon the grant date. Grants also may vest upon the achievement of certain financial performance goals, such as those based on revenue, expenses, profitability, productivity, cash flows, asset utilization, shareholder return, share price and other similar financial performance measures, or individual performance goals.

As a condition of receiving stock options or stock grants, recipients, including Tornier’s named executive officers, must agree to pay all applicable tax withholding obligations in connection with the awards. With respect to stock grants, Tornier’s executives must agree to pay in cash all applicable tax withholding obligations, or alternatively, may give instructions to, and authorize, any brokerage firm determined acceptable to Tornier for such purpose to sell on the executive’s behalf that number of Tornier ordinary shares issuable upon vesting of the stock grant as Tornier determine to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligation.

261

As described in more detail under “ —Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control, ” if a change in control of Tornier occurs, then, under the terms of Tornier’s stock incentive plan, all outstanding options become immediately exercisable in full and remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms and all issuance conditions on all outstanding stock grants will be deemed satisfied; provided, however, that if any such issuance condition relates to satisfying any performance goal and there is a target for the goal, the issuance condition will be deemed satisfied generally only to the extent of the stated target.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End

The table below provides information regarding unexercised stock options and stock awards that have not vested for each of Tornier’s named executive officers that remained outstanding at Tornier’s fiscal year-end, December 28, 2014. Tornier did not have any “equity incentive plan” awards within the meaning of the SEC rules outstanding on December 28, 2014.

(1)

All stock options vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the underlying shares vesting on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying shares vesting over a three-year period thereafter in 12 as nearly equal as possible quarterly installments, in each case so long as the individual

262

remains an employee or consultant of Tornier. If a change in control of Tornier occurs, all outstanding options become immediately exercisable in full and remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms. For more information, see the discussion under “ —Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control. ”

(2)	All option awards have a 10-year term, but may terminate earlier if the recipient’s employment or service relationship with Tornier terminates.

(3)	The release dates and release amounts for the unvested stock awards are as follows:

If a change in control of Tornier occurs, all issuance conditions on all outstanding stock grants will be deemed satisfied; provided, however, that if any such issuance condition relates to satisfying any performance goal and there is a target for the goal, the issuance or condition will be deemed satisfied generally only to the extent of the stated target. In addition, the stock awards granted in February 2014, which are scheduled to vest on February 26, 2017 and February 26, 2018, may vest earlier if certain share price targets are met.

(4)	The market value of stock grants that had not vested as of December 28, 2014 is based on the per share closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, on the last trading day of Tornier’s fiscal year end, December 26, 2014 ($25.46).

Options Exercised and Stock Vested During Fiscal Year

(1)

The number of shares acquired upon exercise reflects the gross number of shares acquired absent netting for shares surrendered to pay the option exercise price and/or satisfy tax withholding requirements. The value realized on exercise represents the gross number of shares acquired on exercise multiplied by the market

263

price of Tornier ordinary shares on the exercise date, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, less the per share exercise price.

(2)

The number of shares acquired upon vesting reflects the gross number of shares acquired absent netting of shares surrendered or sold to satisfy tax withholding requirements. The value realized on vesting of the restricted stock unit awards held by each of the named executive represents the gross number of Tornier ordinary shares acquired, multiplied by the closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, on the vesting date or the last trading day prior to the vesting date if the vesting date is not a trading day.

Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control

Severance Arrangements—Generally . Tornier Inc., Tornier’s primary U.S. operating subsidiary, is a party to employment agreements with each of Tornier’s named executive officers, which agreements provide for certain severance protections. Under such agreements, if the executive’s employment is terminated by Tornier, Inc. without “cause” (as such term is defined in the employment agreements), in addition to any accrued but unpaid salary and benefits through the date of termination, the executive will be entitled to base salary and health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months following termination, and, in the event the executive’s employment is terminated without cause due to non-renewal of the employment agreements by Tornier, Inc., the executive also will be entitled to a payment equal to his or her pro rata annual bonus for the year of termination.

Change in Control Arrangements—Generally . Under the terms of the employment agreements Tornier Inc. has entered into with each of the named executive officers, in the event the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or by the executive for “good reason” (as such term is defined in the employment agreements) within 12 months following a change in control, the executive will be entitled to receive accrued but unpaid salary and benefits through the date of termination, a lump sum payment equal to his base salary plus target bonus for the year of termination, health and welfare benefit continuation for 12 months following termination and accelerated vesting of all unvested options and stock grants.

In addition to the change in control severance protections provided in the employment agreements with Tornier’s executives, Tornier’s prior stock option plan and Tornier’s current stock incentive plan under which stock options and stock grants have been granted to Tornier’s named executive officers contain “change in control” provisions. Under Tornier’s prior stock option plan and current stock incentive plan, if there is a change in control of Tornier, then, all outstanding options become immediately exercisable in full and remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms and all issuance conditions on all outstanding stock grants will be deemed satisfied; provided, however, that if any such issuance condition relates to satisfying any performance goal and there is a target for the goal, the issuance condition will be deemed satisfied generally only to the extent of the stated target. Alternatively, the compensation committee may determine that outstanding awards will be cancelled as of the consummation of the change in control and that holders of cancelled awards will receive a payment in respect of such cancellation based on the amount of per share consideration being paid in connection with the change in control less, in the case of options and other awards subject to exercise, the applicable exercise price.

A “change in control” under Tornier’s current stock incentive plan means:

•

the acquisition (other than from Tornier) by any person, entity or group, subject to certain exceptions, of 50% or more of either Tornier’s then-outstanding ordinary shares or the combined voting power of Tornier’s then-outstanding ordinary shares or the combined voting power of Tornier’s then-outstanding capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

•

the “continuity directors” cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Tornier board of directors;

264

•

consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, in each case, with respect to which persons who were Tornier shareholders immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own more than 50% of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the then-outstanding voting securities of the reorganized, merged, consolidated, or other surviving corporation (or its direct or indirect parent corporation);

•

approval by Tornier shareholders of a liquidation or dissolution of Tornier; or

•

the consummation of the sale of all or substantially all of Tornier’s assets with respect to which persons who were Tornier shareholders immediately prior to such sale do not, immediately thereafter, own more than 50% of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the then-outstanding voting securities of the acquiring corporation (or its direct or indirect parent corporation).

The definition of change in control in Tornier’s prior stock option plan and executive employment agreements is not identical but substantially similar to the definition in Tornier’s current stock incentive plan.

Potential Payments to Named Executive Officers. The table below reflects the amount of compensation and benefits payable to each named executive officer in the event of (i) any termination (including for cause) or resignation, or a voluntary/for cause termination; (ii) an involuntary termination without cause; (iii) an involuntary termination without cause or a resignation for good reason within 12 months following a change in control, or a qualifying change in control termination; (iv) termination by reason of an executive’s death and (v) termination by reason of an executive’s disability. The amounts shown assume that the applicable triggering event occurred on December 28, 2014, and, therefore, are estimates of the amounts that would be paid to the named executive officers upon the occurrence of such triggering event. See “ The Merger—Interests of Tornier’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger—Quantification of Amounts Payable to Tornier’s Named

265

Executive Officers ” for a discussion of the amount of compensation and benefits payable to each named executive officer of Tornier in connection with the proposed merger with Wright.

(1)	Represents the value of salary continuation for 12 months or payment of a lump sum equal to 12-months’ base salary following the executive’s termination, as applicable.

(2)	Includes the value of medical, dental and vision benefit continuation for each executive and their family for 12 months following the executive’s termination. With respect to a qualifying change in control termination, Tornier will bear the entire cost of coverage.

(3)

Includes value of full target bonus for the year of the change in control. In the case of all of the named executive officers, if the termination is an involuntary termination without cause and the date of termination is such that the termination is structured as a non-renewal of the executive’s employment agreement, then under such circumstances a pro rata portion of the executive’s annual bonus would be required to be paid under the terms of the executive’s employment agreement.

266

(4)

The value of the automatic acceleration of the vesting of unvested stock options held by a named executive officer is based on the difference between: (i) the per share market price of Tornier ordinary shares underlying the unvested stock options held by such executive as of December 28, 2014, the last trading day of fiscal 2014, based upon the per share closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, on December 26, 2014 ($25.46), and (ii) the per share exercise price of the options held by such executive. The range of per share exercise prices of unvested stock options held by Tornier’s named executive officers included in the table as of December 28, 2014 was $17.28 to $25.20.

(5)

The value of the automatic acceleration of the vesting of stock awards held by a named executive officer is based on: (i) the number of unvested stock awards held by such officer as of December 28, 2014, multiplied by (ii) the per share market price of Tornier ordinary shares as of last trading day of fiscal 2014, December 26, 2014 based upon the per share closing sale price of Tornier ordinary shares, as reported by the NASDAQ Global Select Market, on December 26, 2014 ($25.46).

Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies, Practices and Programs

As a result of Tornier’s annual assessment on risk in Tornier’s compensation programs, Tornier concluded that its compensation policies, practices and programs and related compensation governance structure work together in a manner so as to encourage its employees, including its named executive officers, to pursue growth strategies that emphasize shareholder value creation, but not to take unnecessary or excessive risks that could threaten the value of Tornier. As part of Tornier’s assessment, Tornier noted in particular the following:

•

annual base salaries for employees are not subject to performance risk and, for most non-executive employees, constitute the largest part of their total compensation;

•

while performance-based, or at risk, compensation constitutes a significant percentage of the overall total compensation of many of Tornier’s employees, including in particular Tornier’s named executive officers, and thereby Tornier believes motivates its employees to help fulfill Tornier’s corporate mission, vision and values, including specific and focused company performance goals, the non-performance based compensation for most employees for most years is also a sufficiently high percentage of their overall total compensation that Tornier does not believe that unnecessary or excessive risk taking is encouraged by the performance-based compensation;

•

for most employees, Tornier’s performance-based compensation has appropriate maximums;

•

a significant portion of performance-based compensation of Tornier’s employees is in the form of long-term equity incentives which do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk because they generally vest over a four-year period of time thereby focusing Tornier’s employees on Tornier’s long-term interests; and

•

performance-based or variable compensation awarded to Tornier’s employees, which for Tornier’s higher-level employees, including Tornier’s named executive officers, constitutes the largest part of their total compensation, is appropriately balanced between annual and long-term performance and cash and equity compensation, and utilizes several different performance measures and goals that are drivers of long-term success for Tornier and its shareholders.

As a matter of best practice, Tornier will continue to monitor its compensation policies, practices and programs to ensure that they continue to align the interest of its employees, including in particular its executive officers, with those of its long-term shareholders while avoiding unnecessary or excessive risk.

DESCRIPTION OF TORNIER ORDINARY SHARES

The following description of the general terms and provisions of Tornier ordinary shares is a summary only and therefore is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the terms and provisions of Tornier’s articles of association. Tornier’s articles of association have been filed with the SEC as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus forms a part, and we recommend that you read that exhibit for provisions that may be important to you. In addition, it is anticipated that Tornier’s articles of association will be amended effective as of the effective time of the merger to change the company name to “Wright Medical Group N.V.” and increase its authorized capital to €9,600,000 divided into 320,000,000 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.03. A copy of the form of deed of amendment to Tornier’s articles of association incorporating these two proposed amendments is attached as Annex F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 3—Amendment to Articles of Association to Change Company Name ” and “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 4—Amendment to Articles of Association to Increase Authorized Capital and Ordinary Shares .”

Authorized Tornier Ordinary Shares

Tornier’s articles of association currently provide for an authorized capital of €5,250,000 divided into 175,000,000 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.03. As of May 5, 2015, Tornier had 48,996,404 ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Tornier does not have any preferred shares authorized or outstanding.

Subject to the required vote of the Tornier shareholders, and effective as of the effective time of the merger, Tornier’s articles of association will be amended to provide for an authorized capital of €9,600,000 divided into 320,000,000 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.03. At the effective time of the merger, Tornier will not have any preferred shares authorized or outstanding.

Form of Tornier Ordinary Shares

Tornier issues its ordinary shares in registered book-entry form, and such shares are not certificated.

Issuance of Tornier Ordinary Shares

Tornier may issue ordinary shares subject to the maximum prescribed by the authorized share capital contained in its articles of association. Currently, Tornier’s articles of association provides for an authorized capital consisting of one class of shares, being 175,000,000 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.03. A designation of authority to the board of directors to issue ordinary shares remains effective for the period specified by the general meeting and may be granted up to a maximum of five years from the date of designation. The general meeting may renew this designation annually. Without this designation, only the general meeting of the Tornier shareholders has the power to resolve to issue Tornier ordinary shares. The Tornier board of directors is authorized to issue Tornier ordinary shares (but not different classes of shares) until June 26, 2019 under the restrictions specified in its articles of association and the designation. At the annual general meeting of Tornier shareholders to be held on June 18, 2015 prior to the extraordinary general meeting, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders is scheduled to extend the authorization of the Tornier board of directors to issue Tornier ordinary shares and grant rights to subscribe for Tornier ordinary shares up to Tornier’s maximum authorized capital at the time of issue until June 18, 2020.

In connection with the issuance of Tornier ordinary shares, at least the nominal value must be paid for such shares. No obligation other than to pay up to the nominal amount of, and any premium agreed upon, a share may be imposed upon a shareholder against the shareholder’s will, by amendment of the articles of association or otherwise. Subject to Dutch law, payment for shares must be in cash to the extent no other contribution has been agreed and may be made in the currency approved by Tornier.

Any increase in the number of authorized Tornier ordinary shares and the introduction of different classes of shares would require an amendment to Tornier’s articles of association. Such amendment would need to be made by a proposal of the Tornier board of directors and adopted by Tornier shareholders at a general meeting by simple majority of votes cast in a meeting in which at least one-third of the outstanding Tornier ordinary shares are represented.

274

Preemptive Rights

Tornier shareholders have a preemptive right to subscribe for Tornier ordinary shares that Tornier issues for cash unless the general meeting, or the relevant other corporate body which has been designated as the authorized corporate body to issue shares, which in Tornier’s case is at present its board of directors, limits or eliminates this right. Tornier shareholders have no preemptive subscription right with respect to Tornier ordinary shares issued (i) for consideration other than cash, (ii) to Tornier’s employees or the employees of Tornier’s group of companies or (iii) to a party exercising a previously obtained right to acquire shares. Tornier shareholders have no preemptive rights with respect to the Tornier ordinary shares that will be issued to Wright shareholders as merger consideration in the merger.

The right of Tornier shareholders to subscribe for ordinary shares pursuant to these preemptive rights may be eliminated or limited by the general meeting. If the general meeting delegates this authority to the Tornier board of directors, then the Tornier board of directors has the power to limit or eliminate the preemptive rights of holders of Tornier ordinary shares. Such a proposal requires the approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by Tornier shareholders at a general meeting at which less than half of the issued share capital is represented or a majority of the votes cast at the general meeting at which at least half of the share capital is represented. Designations of authority to the Tornier board of directors may remain in effect for up to five years and may be renewed for additional periods of up to five years.

The Tornier board of directors is authorized to limit or eliminate the preemptive rights of holders of Tornier ordinary shares until June 26, 2019. At the annual general meeting of Tornier shareholders to be held on June 18, 2015 prior to the extraordinary general meeting, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders is scheduled to extend the authorization of the Tornier board of directors to limit or eliminate the preemptive rights of holders of Tornier ordinary shares until June 18, 2020.

Repurchases of Tornier Ordinary Shares

Tornier may acquire Tornier ordinary shares, subject to applicable provisions of Dutch law and of Tornier’s articles of association, to the extent:

•

its shareholders’ equity, less the amount to be paid for the Tornier ordinary shares to be acquired, exceeds the sum of (i) its share capital account plus (ii) any reserves required to be maintained by Dutch law or Tornier’s articles of association; and

•

after the acquisition of Tornier ordinary shares, Tornier and its subsidiaries would not hold, or hold as pledgees, Tornier ordinary shares having an aggregate nominal value that exceeds 50% of its issued share capital.

The Tornier board of directors may repurchase Tornier ordinary shares only if its shareholders have authorized the Tornier board of directors to do so. The Tornier board of directors is authorized to repurchase the maximum permissible amount of Tornier ordinary shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market during the 18-month period ending December 26, 2015, the maximum term under Dutch law, at prices between an amount equal to the nominal value of the Tornier ordinary shares and an amount equal to 110% of the market price of the Tornier ordinary shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market at the time of the transaction. At the annual general meeting of Tornier shareholders to be held on June 18, 2015 prior to the extraordinary general meeting, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders is scheduled to extend this authorization until December 18, 2016. The authorization is not required for the acquisition of Tornier ordinary shares listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the purpose of transferring the shares to employees under Tornier’s equity incentive plans.

Capital Reductions; Cancellation

Upon a proposal of the Tornier board of directors, at a general meeting, Tornier shareholders may vote to reduce its issued share capital by canceling shares held by Tornier in treasury or by reducing the nominal value

275

of the shares by an amendment to Tornier’s articles of association. In either case, this reduction would be subject to applicable statutory provisions. In order to be approved, a resolution to reduce the capital requires approval of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting if at least half the issued capital is represented at the meeting or at least two-thirds of the votes cast at the meeting if less than half of the issued capital is represented at the meeting.

A resolution to reduce capital requires publication of such intention, enabling Tornier’s creditors to object to the reduction in capital under specified circumstances for a period of two months.

General Meetings of Tornier Shareholders

Each Tornier shareholder has a right to attend general meetings, either in person or by proxy, and to exercise voting rights in accordance with the provisions of Tornier’s articles of association. Tornier must hold at least one general meeting each year. This meeting must be convened at one of three specified locations in the Netherlands (Amsterdam, Haarlemmermeer (Schiphol airport) and Schiedam) within six months after the end of Tornier’s fiscal year. The Tornier board of directors may convene additional general meetings as often as they deem necessary. Pursuant to Dutch law, one or more Tornier shareholders representing at least 10% of Tornier’s issued share capital may request the Dutch courts to order that a general meeting be held. Dutch law does not restrict the rights of holders of Tornier ordinary shares who do not reside in the Netherlands from holding or voting their shares.

Tornier will give notice of each meeting of Tornier shareholders by publication on its website, in a newspaper with a national circulation in the Netherlands and in any other manner that Tornier may be required to follow in order to comply with applicable stock exchange and SEC requirements. Tornier will give notice no later than the 15 ^th day prior to the day of the meeting. As deemed necessary by the Tornier board of directors, either the notice will include or be accompanied by an agenda identifying the business to be considered at the meeting. Tornier shareholders representing at least 3% of the issued share capital have the right to request the inclusion of additional items on the agenda of shareholder meetings, provided that such request is received by Tornier no later than 60 days before the day the relevant shareholder meeting is held, subject to a longer period of time in certain specific cases. The Tornier board of directors may decide that Tornier shareholders are entitled to participate in, to address and to vote in the general meeting of Tornier shareholders by way of an electronic means of communication, in person or by proxy, provided the shareholder may by the electronic means of communication be identified, directly take notice of the discussion in the meeting and participate in the deliberations. The Tornier board of directors may adopt a resolution containing conditions for the use of electronic means of communication. If the Tornier board of directors has adopted such resolutions, they will be disclosed with the notice of the meeting provided to Tornier shareholders.

Board Seats

Tornier maintains a single-tiered board of directors comprising both executive directors and non-executive directors. Currently, the Tornier board of directors consists of one executive director and six non-executive directors. Effective as of the effective time of the merger, the board of directors of the combined company will consist of two executive directors and eight non-executive directors. See “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6—Appointment of Directors .”

The Tornier board of directors and Tornier shareholders each have approved that the Tornier board of directors be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each director serving a three-year term and one class being elected at each year’s annual general meeting of Tornier shareholders. Sean D. Carney and Richard B. Emmitt are in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2015 annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders. David H. Mowry, Kevin C. O’Boyle and Richard F. Wallman are in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2016 annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders and Alain Tornier and Elizabeth H. Weatherman are in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2017 annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders. At each annual general meeting of the Tornier shareholders, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at such meeting will be elected to serve for three-year terms or until

276

their respective successors are elected and qualified. Subject to the required vote of the Tornier shareholders, effective as of the effective time of the merger, Robert J. Palmisano and David H. Mowry will be appointed as executive directors and Gary D. Blackford, Sean D. Carney, John L. Miclot, Kevin C. O’Boyle, Amy S. Paul, David D. Stevens, Richard F. Wallman and Elizabeth H. Weatherman will be appointed as non-executive directors, in each case to serve until the next annual general meeting of Tornier shareholders or, in each case, until the director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. See “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6—Appointment of Directors .” If such directors are appointed by the Tornier shareholders, as of the effective time of the merger, the board of directors of the combined company will not be classified or staggered.

The general meeting of Tornier shareholders appoints the members of the Tornier board of directors, subject to a binding nomination of the Tornier board of directors in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Dutch Civil Code. The Tornier board of directors makes the binding nomination based on a recommendation of Tornier’s nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed by the general meeting of Tornier shareholders unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors is set aside. The binding nature of nominations by the Tornier board of directors can only be set aside by a vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary general meeting of Tornier shareholders, provided such two-thirds vote constitutes more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital. In such case, a new meeting is to be called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Tornier board of directors shall require a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital.

A resolution of the general meeting of Tornier shareholders to suspend a member of the Tornier board of directors requires the affirmative vote of an absolute majority of the votes cast. A resolution of the general meeting of Tornier shareholders to suspend or dismiss members of the Tornier board of directors, other than pursuant to a proposal by the Tornier board of directors, requires a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital.

Under Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, the Tornier board of directors is collectively responsible for Tornier’s policy and general affairs of the company. The executive directors are responsible for the day-to-day affairs. The non-executive directors supervise and provide guidance to the executive directors. In performing their duties, Tornier’s directors are guided by the interests of the company and, within the boundaries set by relevant Dutch law, are required to take into account the relevant interests of Tornier’s stakeholders. The internal affairs of the Tornier board of directors are also governed by Tornier’s internal rules for the board of directors. Each director owes a duty to Tornier to properly perform the duties assigned to such director and to act in Tornier’s corporate interest.

Voting Rights

Each Tornier ordinary share is entitled to one vote. Tornier’s articles of association do not limit the number of registered shares that may be voted by a single shareholder. Treasury shares, whether owned by Tornier or one

277

of its majority-owned subsidiaries, are not entitled to vote at general meetings. Resolutions of the general meeting are adopted by a simple majority of votes cast at a meeting where at least one-third of the issued share capital is represented, except as described in the following two paragraphs.

Matters requiring a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, which votes also represent more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital include, among others:

•

a resolution to cancel a binding nomination for the appointment of members of the Tornier board of directors;

•

a resolution to appoint members of the Tornier board of directors if the binding nomination is set aside; and

•

a resolution to dismiss or suspend members of the Tornier board of directors other than pursuant to a proposal by the Tornier board of directors.

Matters requiring a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, if less than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital is represented include, among others:

•

a resolution of the general meeting regarding restricting and excluding preemptive rights, or decisions to designate the Tornier board of directors as the body authorized to exclude or restrict preemptive rights;

•

a resolution of the general meeting to reduce Tornier’s outstanding share capital; and

•

a resolution of the general meeting to have Tornier merge or demerge.

Quorum for General Meetings

Apart from the resolutions referred to in the first three bullet points under “ —Voting Rights ,” under Tornier’s articles of association, holders of at least one-third of the outstanding shares must be represented at a meeting to constitute a quorum. If a quorum was not represented at the meeting, a new meeting may be convened at which the resolution may, other than for the resolutions referred to under “ —Voting Rights ,” be passed, irrespective of the part of the capital represented at such meeting. In the notice convening the new meeting it must be stated, giving the reason therefor, that a resolution may be passed, irrespective of the part of the capital represented at the meeting.

Adoption of Annual Accounts and Discharge of Management Liability

The Tornier board of directors must prepare statutory annual accounts within five months after the end of Tornier’s financial year, unless the Tornier shareholders have approved an extension of this period for up to six additional months due to certain special circumstances. Tornier’s statutory accounts to date have been prepared and will continue to be prepared under generally accepted accounting practices in the Netherlands and are deposited with the Trade Register in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Tornier’s statutory accounts prepared under generally accepted accounting practices in the Netherlands may be different from Tornier’s consolidated financial statements prepared under generally accepted accounting practices in the United States, such as those incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The annual accounts must be accompanied by an auditor’s certificate, a board of directors report and certain other mandatory information and must be made available for inspection by Tornier shareholders at Tornier’s offices within the five-month period referenced above. Under Dutch law, Tornier’s general meeting is in first instance authorized to approve the appointment and removal of Tornier’s independent auditors, as referred to in Article 2:393 of the Dutch Civil Code, to audit the annual accounts. The annual accounts are adopted by Tornier shareholders at the general meeting and prepared in accordance with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code.

The adoption of the annual accounts by Tornier shareholders does not release the members of the Tornier board of directors from liability for acts reflected in those documents. Any such release from liability requires a separate shareholders’ resolution to be voted on in the general meeting.

278

Tornier’s financial reporting is subject to the supervision of the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (“AFM”). The AFM has an independent right to (i) request an explanation from Tornier regarding Tornier’s application of the applicable financial reporting standards if, based on publicly known facts or circumstances, it has reason to doubt Tornier’s financial reporting meets such standards and (ii) recommend Tornier to make available further explanations. If Tornier does not comply with such a request or recommendation, the AFM may request that the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal ( Ondernemingskamer ) order Tornier to (i) provide an explanation of the way the applicable financial reporting standards have been applied to Tornier’s financial reports or (ii) prepare Tornier’s financial reports in accordance with the Enterprise Chamber’s instructions.

Dividends

Tornier’s articles of association prescribe that profits or reserves appearing in Tornier’s annual accounts adopted by the general meeting will be at the disposal of the general meeting. Tornier will have power to make distributions to its shareholders and other persons entitled to distributable profits only to the extent that Tornier’s equity exceeds the sum of the paid and called-up portion of the ordinary share capital and the reserves that must be maintained in accordance with provisions of Dutch law or Tornier’s articles of association. Tornier may not make any distribution of profits on Tornier ordinary shares that it holds. The general meeting, whether or not upon the proposal of the Tornier board of directors, determines whether and how much of the remaining profit they will reserve and the manner and date of such distribution.

All calculations to determine the amounts available for dividends are based on Tornier’s statutory annual accounts prepared under Dutch GAAP and deposited with the Trade Register in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of a dissolution and liquidation, the assets remaining after payment of all debts and liquidation expenses are distributed to the holders of Tornier ordinary shares in proportion to their nominal possession of such shares. All distributions referred to in this paragraph are made in accordance with the relevant provisions of Dutch law.

Redemption, Conversion and Sinking Fund Rights

Holders of Tornier ordinary shares have no redemption, conversion or sinking fund rights.

Limitations on Non-Residents and Exchange Controls

There are no limits under the laws of the Netherlands or in Tornier’s articles of association on non-residents of the Netherlands holding or voting Tornier ordinary shares. Currently, there are no exchange controls under the laws of the Netherlands on the conduct of Tornier’s operations or affecting the remittance of dividends.

Market Abuse

The Dutch Financial Markets Supervision Act ( Wet op het financieel toezicht ) (“FSA”), provides for specific rules intended to prevent market abuse which include prohibitions on insider trading, divulging inside information and tipping, and market manipulation. Tornier is subject to the rules under the FSA which prohibit insider trading prohibition (in particular, if Tornier trades in Tornier ordinary shares or in financial instruments the value of which is determined or co-determined by the value of Tornier ordinary shares), divulging insider information and tipping and market manipulation. The prohibition on market manipulation under the FSA may mean that certain restrictions apply to the ability of Tornier to buy-back Tornier ordinary shares. In certain circumstances, Tornier shareholders can also be subject to the market abuse rules under the FSA.

279

Pursuant to the FSA, Tornier has adopted a code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality in respect of holding of and carrying out of transactions by Tornier board members and Tornier employees in Tornier ordinary shares or in financial instruments the value of which is determined or co-determined by the value of Tornier ordinary shares.

Netherlands Squeeze-Out Proceedings

Pursuant to Section 2:92a of the Dutch Civil Code, a Tornier shareholder who for its own account contributes at least 95% of Tornier’s issued capital may institute proceedings against Tornier’s other shareholders jointly for the transfer of their shares to the claimant. The proceedings are held before the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal ( Ondernemingskamer ) (“Enterprise Chamber”) and can be instituted by means of a writ of summons served upon each of the minority shareholders in accordance with the provisions of the Dutch Code of Civil Procedure ( Wetboek van Burgerlijke Rechtsvordering ). The Enterprise Chamber may grant the claim for squeeze out in relation to all minority Tornier shareholders and determines the price to be paid for the shares, if necessary after appointment of one or three experts who offer an opinion to the Enterprise Chamber on the value to be paid for the shares of the minority shareholders. Once the order to transfer becomes final before the Enterprise Chamber, the person acquiring the shares must give written notice of the date and place of payment and the price to the holders of the shares to be acquired whose addresses are known to such person. Unless the addresses of all of them are known to such person, such person also must publish the same in a newspaper with a national circulation in the Netherlands.

Securityholders’ Agreement

On July 18, 2006, Tornier N.V., formerly known as TMG B.V., entered into a securityholders’ agreement with TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A., TMG Partners U.S. LLC, Vertical Fund I, L.P., Vertical Fund II, L.P., KCH Stockholm AB, Alain Tornier, Warburg Pincus (Bermuda) Private Equity IX, L.P, and certain other shareholders at that time, and, by subsequent joinder agreements, additional shareholders. This agreement was amended on August 27, 2010. Under director nomination provisions of this agreement, TMG has the right to designate three directors to the Tornier board of directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, two directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 10% but less than 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and one director for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 5% but less than 10% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, and Tornier agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the TMG designees to be elected. TMG held approximately 21.9% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares as of May 5, 2015. Sean D. Carney and Elizabeth H. Weatherman are the current directors who are designees of TMG. Upon consummation of the merger, it is expected that TMG will own approximately 10.5% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and that Sean D. Carney and Elizabeth H. Weatherman will be directors of the combined company and the director designees of TMG. The securityholders’ agreement terminates upon the written consent of all parties to the agreement.

Registration Rights

Tornier is party to a registration rights agreement with certain of its shareholders and officers, including TMG, Vertical Fund I, L.P., Vertical Fund II, L.P. and KCH Stockholm AB (collectively, the “holders”). Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, Tornier has agreed to (i) use its reasonable best efforts to effect up to three registered offerings of at least $10 million each upon a demand of TMG or its affiliates and one registered offering of at least $10 million upon a demand of Vertical Fund I, L.P. and Vertical Fund II, L.P., (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to become eligible for use of Form S-3 for registration statements and, once Tornier becomes eligible, TMG or its affiliates have the right to demand an unlimited number of registrations of at least $10 million each on Form S-3 and (iii) maintain the effectiveness of each such registration statement for a period of 120 days or until the distribution of the registrable securities pursuant to the registration statement is complete. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, all holders also have incidental or “piggyback” registration rights with respect to any registrable shares, subject to certain limitations and restrictions, including

280

volume and marketing restrictions imposed by the underwriters of the offering with respect to which the rights are exercised. Under the registration rights agreement, Tornier has agreed to bear the expenses, including the fees and disbursements of one legal counsel for the holders, in connection with the registrations, except for underwriting commissions. As of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, Tornier is eligible to use Form S-3. The filing of the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part did not trigger “piggyback” registration rights under the registration rights agreement.

Listing of Tornier Ordinary Shares

Tornier ordinary shares are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “TRNX.” Upon completion of the merger, the combined company’s ordinary shares will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the trading symbol “WMGI.”

COMPARISON OF RIGHTS OF WRIGHT SHAREHOLDERS AND TORNIER SHAREHOLDERS

Wright is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware and Tornier is incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands. Upon completion of the merger, holders of Wright shares will receive Tornier ordinary shares in exchange for their Wright shares. The rights of holders of Tornier ordinary shares are governed by Dutch corporate law and Tornier’s articles of association.

The following table compares the material differences between the current rights of Wright shareholders under Wright’s certificate of incorporation (“Wright’s charter”) and bylaws (“Wright’s bylaws), and under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the current rights of Tornier shareholders under Tornier’s current articles of association and Dutch law.

Wright has filed copies of Wright’s charter and Wright’s bylaws with the SEC and Tornier has filed a copy of Tornier’s articles of association and the proposed form of deed of amendment to Tornier’s articles of association contemplated by the merger agreement with the SEC. In addition, copies of Wright’s charter, Wright’s bylaws and Tornier’s articles of association will be sent to holders of Wright shares or Tornier ordinary shares upon request. See “ Where You Can Find More Information .” The form of deed of amendment to Tornier’s articles of association contemplated by the merger agreement is attached as Annex F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Because this summary does not provide a complete description of those documents, Wright and Tornier urge you to read in their entirety Wright’s charter and Wright’s bylaws and Tornier’s articles of association, as well as the proposed form of deed of amendment to Tornier’s articles of association contemplated by the merger agreement and attached as Annex F to this joint proxy statement/prospectus.


WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Authorized Share Capital
The authorized capital stock of Wright currently consists of 105,000,000 shares, consisting of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. The Wright board of directors has the authority, without shareholder approval, to issue shares of authorized preferred stock from time to time in one or more series and to fix the designations, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each series of preferred stock, which rights and preferences may be superior to those of Wright shares. Wright currently has no shares of preferred stock outstanding.		Tornier’s current authorized share capital is 175,000,000 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.03. Tornier does not have any preferred shares authorized. Upon completion of the merger and the effectiveness of the deed of amendment to Tornier’s articles of association, Tornier’s authorized share capital will be 320,000,000 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.03. Tornier will not have any preferred shares authorized. A designation of authority to the board of directors to issue ordinary shares or, as the case may be, different classes of shares remains effective for the

282


WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Authorized Share Capital
		period specified by the general meeting and may be granted up to a maximum of five years from the date of designation. The general meeting may renew this designation annually. Without this designation, only the general meeting of Tornier shareholders has the power to authorize the issuance of shares and, if the authorized capital provides for different classes of shares, the issuance of different classes of shares. The Tornier board of directors is authorized to issue Tornier ordinary shares (but not different classes of shares) until June 26, 2019 under the restrictions specified in Tornier’s articles of association and the designation.

Dividends
Under the DGCL, a Delaware corporation may pay dividends out of its surplus (the excess of net assets over capital), or in case there is no surplus, out of its net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared or the preceding fiscal year (provided that the amount of the capital of the corporation is not less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets). In determining the amount of surplus of a Delaware corporation, the assets of the corporation, including stock of subsidiaries owned by the corporation, must be valued at their fair market value as determined by the board of directors, regardless of their historical book value. Dividends may be paid in the form of common stock, property or cash. Wright’s bylaws provide that the Wright board of directors has the power to fix and vary the amount to be set aside or reserved as working capital of Wright, or as reserves, or for other proper purposes of Wright, and, subject to the requirements of Wright’s charter, to determine whether any part of the surplus or net profits of Wright will be declared as dividends and paid to Wright shareholders, and to fix the date or dates for the payment of dividends.		Dutch law provides that dividends may only be distributed after adoption of the annual accounts by the general meeting from which it appears that such dividend distribution is allowed. Moreover, dividends may be distributed only to the extent the shareholders’ equity exceeds the sum of the amount of issued and paid-up capital and increased by reserves that must be maintained under the law or the articles of association. Interim dividends may be declared as provided in the articles of association and may be distributed to the extent that the shareholders’ equity exceeds the amount of the issued and paid-up capital plus required legal reserves as apparent from an (interim) financial statement. Interim dividends should be regarded as advances on the final dividend to be declared with respect to the financial year in which the interim dividends have been declared. Should it be determined after adoption of the annual accounts with respect to the relevant financial year that the distribution was not permissible, the company may reclaim, under certain circumstances, the paid interim dividends as unduly paid from the respective shareholders or any person entitled to profits. The Tornier board of directors may propose to its general meeting of Tornier shareholders to resolve to make distributions out of its general share premium account or out of any other reserves available for distributions under Dutch law, not being a reserve that must be maintained under Dutch law or pursuant to Tornier’s articles of association. Dividends may be paid in the form of Tornier ordinary shares as well as in cash.

WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Preemptive Rights
Under the DGCL, shareholders have no preemptive rights to subscribe to additional issues of stock or to any security convertible into such stock unless, and except to the extent that, such rights are expressly provided for in the certificate of incorporation. Wright’s charter does not provide for preemptive rights.		Under Dutch law, in the event of an issuance of shares, each shareholder will have a pro-rata preemptive right to the number of shares held by such shareholder (with the exception of shares to be issued to employees or shares issued against a contribution other than in cash). Preemptive rights in respect of newly issued shares may be limited or excluded by the general meeting or by the board of directors if designated thereto by the general meeting or by the articles of association for a period not exceeding five years. Tornier’s articles of association conform to Dutch law and authorize the general meeting or the Tornier board of directors, if so designated by a resolution of the general meeting or by Tornier’s articles of association, to limit or exclude preemptive rights for holders of Tornier ordinary shares for a period not exceeding five years. In order for such a resolution to be adopted, a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast in a meeting of Tornier shareholders is required, if less than half of the issued share capital is present or represented or a majority of the votes cast at a general meeting at which at least half of the share capital is represented. The authority to limit or exclude preemptive rights relating to issues of Tornier ordinary shares was delegated to the Tornier board of directors and will continue until June 26, 2019.

Voting Rights
Under the DGCL, each shareholder is entitled to one vote per share of stock, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. In addition, the certificate of incorporation may provide for cumulative voting at all elections of directors of the corporation or at elections held under specified circumstances. Either the certificate of incorporation or the bylaws may specify the number of shares or the amount of other securities that must be represented at a meeting in order to constitute a quorum, but in no event will a quorum consist of less than one-third of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting. Wright’s charter and Wright’s bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting, and as a result, holders of Wright shares have no cumulative voting rights in connection with the election of directors. Each Wright shareholder is entitled to one vote per Wright share. Shareholders as of the record date for the meeting are entitled to vote at the meeting, and the board of directors may fix a record date that is no more than 60		Under Dutch law, shares have one vote per share, provided such shares have the same par value. Certain exceptions may be provided in the articles of association of a company (which is currently not the case in Tornier’s articles of association). All shareholder resolutions are taken by an absolute majority of the votes cast, unless the articles of association or Dutch law prescribe otherwise. Tornier will give notice of each meeting of Tornier shareholders by publication on its website, in a newspaper with a national circulation in the Netherlands and in any other manner that Tornier may be required to follow in order to comply with applicable stock exchange and SEC requirements. Tornier will give notice no later than the 15 ^th day prior to the day of the meeting. As deemed necessary by the board of directors, either the notice will include or be accompanied by an agenda identifying the business to be considered at the meeting.

284


WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Voting Rights
nor less than 10 days before the date of the meeting, and if no record date is set then the record date is the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or if notice is waived then the record date is the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. The determination of the shareholders of record entitled to notice or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting, but the board of directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.		If a record date has been set by the Tornier board of directors, holders of shares in the capital of Tornier on such record date prior to the general meeting are entitled to vote at that general meeting, The record date is the 28th day prior the general meeting. There is no specific provision in Dutch law for adjournments

Appraisal Rights
The DGCL provides for shareholder appraisal rights, or the right to demand payment in cash of the judicially-determined fair value of the shareholder’s shares, in connection with certain mergers and consolidations.		Dutch corporate law grants a shareholder of a non-surviving entity in a merger, in certain circumstances the right to claim monetary compensation rights ( schadeloosstelling ). In cross border mergers within the European Economic Area, a shareholder of the non-surviving entity who has voted against the proposed merger may within one month following the day on which the proposed merger has been approved, submit a request for compensation with the non-surviving entity. However, the merger between Wright and Tornier is not structured as such a cross border merger and, therefore, no such rights will be available to Tornier shareholders in this transaction.

Shareholder Inspection Rights
Under the DGCL, any shareholder may inspect for any proper purpose the corporation’s stock ledger, a list of its shareholders and its other books and records during the corporation’s usual hours of business.		Individual Tornier shareholders can in principle raise questions and request information from the Tornier board of directors during a general meeting of Tornier shareholders. A Tornier shareholder may inspect its entry in Tornier’s shareholders’ register.

Number of Directors
Wright’s charter provides that the number of directors on the Wright board of directors will not be less than one nor more than 10, which number will be determined from time to time by the Wright board of directors. There are currently 10 directors serving on the Wright board of directors.		Tornier’s articles of association provide that the board of directors will determine the number of directors, provided that Tornier must have a board of directors consisting of three or more members, comprising one or more executive directors having day-to-day management of the company and two or more non-executive directors not having such responsibility. The Tornier board of directors currently consists of one executive director and six non-executive directors. The Tornier securityholders’ agreement, dated July 18, 2006 provides that TMG Holdings Coöperatief U.A. has the right to designate three directors to be nominated to the Tornier board of directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, two

285


WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Number of Directors
		directors for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 10% but less than 25% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares and one director for so long as TMG beneficially owns at least 5% but less than 10% of outstanding Tornier ordinary shares, and Tornier agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the TMG designees to be elected. Subject to a vote of the Tornier shareholders, at the effective time of the merger, the Tornier board of directors will include ten directors: five directors nominated by the Wright board of directors prior to the effective time, one of whom shall be Robert J. Palmisano, and five directors nominated by the Tornier board of directors prior to the effective time, one of who shall be David H. Mowry. See “ Tornier Voting Proposal No. 6. Appointment of Directors .”

Election of Directors
Directors of Wright are elected by a plurality vote of the shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders, so long as a quorum is present.		Tornier’s articles of association provide that nominations of persons for election to the Tornier board of directors may be made by the Tornier board of directors from a nomination to be drawn up by the Tornier board of directors. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors were set aside. Binding nominations of the Tornier board of directors may be overridden by a vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary general meeting of shareholders if such two-thirds vote constitute more than one-half of Tornier’s issued share capital.

Duties of Directors
The board of directors of a Delaware corporation bears responsibility for managing the business and affairs of a corporation. There is generally only one board of directors. In discharging this function, directors of a Delaware corporation owe fiduciary duties of care and loyalty to the corporation and to its shareholders. Delaware courts have decided that the directors of a Delaware corporation are required to exercise informed business judgment in the performance of their duties. An informed business judgment means that the directors have informed themselves of all material information reasonably available to them. Delaware courts also		Under Dutch law and the articles of association, the board of directors is collectively responsible for the policy and general affairs of the company. The executive directors are responsible for the day to day affairs of the company. The non-executive directors are assigned the task of supervising the executive director and providing him or her with advice. Each director owes a duty to Tornier to properly perform the duties assigned to such director and to act in Tornier’s corporate interest. In the Netherlands, a listed company historically had a two-tier board structure with a management board comprising the executive directors and a

WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Duties of Directors
have imposed a heightened standard of conduct upon directors of a Delaware corporation who take any action designed to defeat a threatened change in control of the corporation. In addition, under Delaware law, when the board of directors of a Delaware corporation approves the sale or break-up of a corporation, the board of directors may, in certain circumstances, have a duty to obtain the highest value reasonably available to the shareholders.		supervisory board comprising the non-executive directors. It is, however, also possible to have a single-tier board, comprising both executive directors and non-executive directors. Tornier has a single-tier board. Unlike Delaware, under Dutch law the corporate interest extends to the interests of all corporate stakeholders, such as shareholders, creditors, employees, customers and suppliers. The duty to act in the corporate interest of the company also applies in the event of a proposed sale or break-up of the company, whereby the circumstances generally dictate how such duty is to be applied. Any board resolution regarding a significant change in the identity or character of the company requires shareholders’ approval.

Director Terms; Classification of Board of Directors
The DGCL generally provides for a one-year term for directors, but permits directorships to be divided into up to three classes with up to three-year terms, with the years for each class expiring in different years, if permitted by the certificate of incorporation, an initial bylaw or a bylaw adopted by the shareholders. A director elected to serve a term on a “classified” board may not be removed by shareholders without cause. There is no limit to the number of terms a director may serve. Wright does not have a classified board of directors. Wright’s bylaws provide that the directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of Wright shareholders and shall serve until the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified.		In contrast to Delaware law, under Dutch law a non-executive director of a listed company is generally appointed for a maximum term of four years. There is no limit to the number of terms a director may serve. Tornier’s articles of association provide that Tornier’s directors will be appointed for a maximum term of four years. A director may in principle be removed at any time, with or without cause by the general meeting, provided that such resolution is placed on the agenda of a general meeting. Although the current Tornier board of directors is divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with each director serving a three-year term and one class being elected at each year’s annual general meeting of shareholders, the board of directors of the combined company will not be classified or staggered.

Removal of Directors
Under the DGCL, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors, except (a) unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise, in the case of a corporation whose board is classified, shareholders may effect such removal only for cause, or (b) in the case of a corporation having cumulative voting, if less than the entire board is to be removed, no director may be removed without cause if the votes cast against his removal would be sufficient to elect him if then cumulatively voted at an election of the entire		Under Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders has the authority to suspend or remove members of the Tornier board of directors at any time by adopting either: (a) a resolution, approved by an absolute majority of the votes cast at a meeting, pursuant to a proposal by the board of directors or (b) a resolution, approved by two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting representing more than half of Tornier’s issued capital, if such suspension or removal is not pursuant to a proposal by the Tornier board of directors.

WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Removal of Directors
board of directors, or, if there are classes of directors, at an election of the class of directors of which he is a part Wright’s bylaws provides that a director may be removed from office with or without cause upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of capital stock entitled to vote.

Vacancies on the Board of Directors
Wright’s charter provides that vacancies by reason of death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office, increase in number of directors or otherwise, may be filled by a majority vote of the remaining directors, although less than a quorum, at a meeting called for that purpose by a successor who, unless removed for cause, shall hold office until the expiration of the term for which appointed or until a successor shall be elected and qualified Wright’s bylaws provide that the shareholders removing any director may at the same meeting fill the vacancy caused by the removal, and if the directors fail to fill any vacancy, the shareholders may at any special meeting called for that purpose fill the vacancy.		Under Dutch law, new members of the Tornier board of directors are appointed by the general meeting of Tornier shareholders, rather than appointed by the Tornier board of directors as is typical for a Delaware corporation. Tornier’s articles of association provide that such shareholder appointment occurs based on a binding nomination by the Tornier board of directors, in which case the general meeting may override the binding nature of such nomination by a resolution of two-thirds of the votes cast, which votes also represent more than one-half of the issued share capital. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors were set aside. Tornier’s articles of association stipulate that, in the event that one or more members of the Tornier board of directors are absent or prevented from acting, the remaining members of the Tornier board of directors or the sole remaining member of the Tornier board of directors shall be entrusted with Tornier’s management. In the event that all members of the Tornier board of directors are absent or prevented from acting, a person to be appointed for that purpose by the general meeting shall be temporarily entrusted with the company’s management.

Board Quorum
Wright’s bylaws provide that a majority of the directors then in office present in person, by telephone or by other electronic communications will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.		Pursuant to Tornier’s articles of association, the Tornier board of directors can only adopt valid resolutions when the majority of the members of the Tornier board of directors in office shall be present or represented at such board meeting. Tornier’s articles of association provide that if one or more members of the Tornier board of directors are absent or prevented from acting, the remaining members of the Tornier board of directors or the

288


WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Board Quorum
		sole remaining member of the board of directors will be entrusted with the management of the company. An absent director may issue a proxy for a specific board meeting but only to another director in writing.

Shareholder Quorum
Wright’s bylaws provide that any number of shareholders, together holding at least a majority of the capital stock of Wright issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy at any meeting duly called, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided by Wright’s charter or Wright’s bylaws.		Although there is no general quorum requirement under Dutch law, Tornier’s articles of association provide that resolutions shall be passed by a simple majority of votes cast in a meeting where at least one-third of the outstanding shares are represented. If a quorum was not represented at the meeting, a new meeting may be convened at which the resolution may, in principle—other than for the resolutions referred to under “ Description of Tornier Ordinary Shares—Voting Rights ” be passed, irrespective of the part of the capital represented at such meeting. In the notice convening the new meeting it must be stated, giving the reason therefor, that a resolution may be passed, irrespective of the part of the capital represented at the meeting.

Shareholder Action by Written Consent
Wright’s bylaws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a written consent (or consents) setting forth the action is (a) signed by the holders of outstanding stock having at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on the action were present and voted and (b) delivered to Wright at its registered office in Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of Wright having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of shareholders are recorded.		Under Dutch law, shareholders’ resolutions may be adopted in writing without holding a meeting of shareholders, provided (a) the articles of association expressly so allow, (b) no bearer shares or depositary receipts are issued, (c) there are no persons entitled to the same rights as holders of depositary receipts, (d) the board of directors has been given the opportunity to give its advice on the resolution and (e) the resolution is adopted unanimously by all shareholders that are entitled to vote. The requirement of unanimity therefore renders the adoption of shareholder resolutions without holding a meeting not feasible for listed companies.

Special Meetings of Shareholders
Under Delaware law, a special meeting of Wright shareholders may be called by the Wright board of directors or by any other person authorized to do so in Wright’s charter or Wright’s bylaws and the written notice of the special meeting must set forth the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Wright’s bylaws provide that special meetings of		Tornier’s articles of association provide that extraordinary general meetings of Tornier shareholders will be held as often as the Tornier board of directors deems such necessary. General meetings shall in principle be convened by the Tornier board of directors. Pursuant to Dutch law, one or more shareholders representing at least 10%

289


WRIGHT SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS		TORNIER SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Special Meetings of Shareholders
Wright shareholders for any purpose may only be called by the board of directors, the chairman of the board or the chief executive officer or president. Wright’s bylaws require that written notice of a special meeting must be given by the secretary to shareholders not less than 10 days or more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, stating the time and place of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.		of the issued share capital may request the competent Dutch Court to order that a general meeting be held.

Shareholder Proposals and Director Nominations
Wright’s bylaws provide that nominations of persons for election to the Wright board of directors may be made (a) by the board of directors or (b) by a shareholder of Wright, if notice of the nomination is delivered in compliance with the procedures set forth in Wright’s bylaws. For a nomination to be made by a shareholder of record, the shareholder must give timely written notice to the secretary of Wright in proper form. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be received by the secretary at the principal office of Wright not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the one year anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is convened more than 60 days prior to or delayed by more than 30 days after the anniversary of the preceding year’s meeting, notice by a shareholder must be so received not earlier than the 120 ^th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later date of the 90 ^th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10 ^th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made if such announcement is less than 100 days prior to the date of the meeting. If such notice pertains to the nomination of directors, to be in proper written form, it must set forth, as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate: (a) all information relating to such person as would be required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of such nominees as directors pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act; (b) each proposed nominee’s consent to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected; (c) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and beneficial owner or owners, if any, and their respective affiliates and associates, on the one hand, and each proposed nominee and his or her respective affiliates and associates		The agenda for a meeting of shareholders must contain such items as the board of directors or the person or persons convening the meeting decide. Unlike under Delaware law, the agenda shall also include such other items as one or more shareholders, representing at least 3% of the issued share capital may request of the board of directors in writing, at least 60 days before the date of the meeting. Tornier’s articles of association provide that nominations of persons for election to the Tornier board of directors may be made by the Tornier board of directors from a nomination to be drawn up by the Tornier board of directors. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate shall be appointed unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Tornier board of directors were set aside (See “ Comparison of Rights of Wright Shareholders and Tornier Shareholders ” and “ Description of Tornier Ordinary Shares—Election of Directors ”).

(including their names) pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by such shareholder, on the other hand; (d) a description of all direct and indirect compensation or other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past three years, and any other material relationships, between or among such shareholder and beneficial owner or owners, if any, and their respective affiliates and associates, on the one hand, and each proposed nominee and his or her respective affiliates and associates, on the other hand; and (e) each proposed nominee’s consent to comply with all applicable publicly disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality and stock ownership and trading policies and guidelines of Wright. Wright may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information (x) as may reasonably be required by Wright to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of Wright in accordance with Wright’s Corporate Governance Principles or (y) that could be material to a reasonable shareholder’s understanding of the independence or lack of independence of such proposed nominee. As to any business that the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, the notice must also include (a) a brief description of such business; (b) the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting; (c) any material interest in such business of such shareholder and the beneficial owner or owners, if any, or other persons on whose behalf the proposal is made or acting in concert therewith; and (d) a description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings between such shareholder and beneficial owner or owners, if any, and any other such person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such shareholder. All such notices must also include, as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owners or owners, if any, or other persons on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made or acting in concert with: (a) the name and address of such party; (b) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of Wright which are owned, directly or indirectly, beneficially and of record by the shareholder and the beneficial owner; (c) all other information regarding each nominee that would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the SEC if the nominee had been nominated by the board of directors; and (d) a statement as to whether each such party will deliver a

proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of, in the case of a proposal, at least the percentage of voting power of all of the shares of capital stock of Wright required under law to carry the proposal or, in the case of a nomination or nominations for election as directors, at least the percentage of voting power of all of the shares of capital stock of Wright reasonably believed by the shareholder or beneficial owner or owners, as the case may be, to be sufficient to elect the persons proposed to be nominated by the shareholder.

Share Repurchases
Under the DGCL, Wright may purchase or redeem its own shares unless the capital of the corporation is impaired or the purchase or redemption would cause an impairment of the capital of the corporation. Wright may, however, purchase or redeem out of capital any of its preferred shares or, if no preferred shares are outstanding, any of its own shares if such shares will be retired upon acquisition and the capital of the corporation will be reduced in accordance with specified limitations.		Under Dutch law, Tornier may not subscribe for newly issued shares in its own capital. Tornier may, however, repurchase its existing and outstanding shares or depositary receipts if permitted under its articles of association. Tornier may acquire its own shares either without paying any consideration, or, in the event any consideration must be paid, only if the following requirements are met: (a) the shareholders’ equity less the payment required to make the acquisition is not less than the sum of called and paid-up capital and any reserve required by Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, (b) Tornier and its subsidiaries would not thereafter hold or hold as a pledgee shares with an aggregate nominal value exceeding 50% of the nominal value of Tornier’s issued share capital, (c) Tornier’s articles of association permit such acquisition, which currently is the case, and (d) the general meeting of Tornier shareholders has authorized the Tornier board of directors to do so, which authorization has been granted for the maximum period allowed under Dutch law and Tornier’s articles of association, that period being 18 months. As discussed in (a) above, Tornier’s ability to repurchase its own shares may be limited by the amount of any statutory reserves that the company is required to maintain under Dutch law. A larger statutory reserve requirement will result in a company’s ability to repurchase a lesser number of its outstanding shares. The type and amount of any reserve required to be maintained under Dutch law is fact-specific and can include, among other things, (i) a revaluation reserve to cover any increases in the value of tangible and intangible fixed assets and stocks, as well as increases in the value of other assets, (ii) reserves to cover participation interests

		that the company owns in third parties to the extent that the company is utilizing the equity accounting method (vermogensmutatie methode) to value such interests and (iii) non-distributable reserves equal to the amount of any loans that the board of directors has resolved to provide to third parties for purposes of acquiring shares of the company.

Amendment of Charter
Wright reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provisions contained in its charter, in the manner prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon Wright shareholders therein are subject to that reservation. The DGCL requires that any amendment to Wright’s charter must be approved by the board of directors and that a resolution be adopted recommending that the amendment be approved by a majority of the outstanding stock entitled to vote on the amendment, plus the amendment must be approved by a majority of the outstanding stock of any class entitled under the DGCL to vote separately as a class on the amendment.		On proposal of the Tornier board of directors, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders may resolve to amend Tornier’s articles of association upon approval by an absolute majority of the votes cast at a meeting at which at least one-third of the issued share capital is represented. The full proposal of the amendment to the articles of association must be available at Tornier’s offices from the day of the convocation of the general meeting of Tornier shareholders until the close of the same for inspection by those who are entitled to attend meetings.

Amendment of Bylaws
Wright’s bylaws provide that the Wright board of directors may adopt, amend and repeal Wright’s bylaws; provided that Wright shareholders also may adopt, amend or repeal Wright’s bylaws by the affirmative vote of, in addition to the vote of any holders of any class or series of stock required by law or Wright’s charter, the holders of two-thirds of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.		Tornier does not have bylaws.

Shareholder Suits
Under the DGCL, a shareholder may bring a derivative action on behalf of the corporation to enforce the rights of the corporation. An individual also may commence a class action suit on behalf of such individual and other similarly situated shareholders where the requirements for maintaining a class action under Delaware law have been met. A person may institute and maintain such a suit only if that person was a shareholder at the time of the transaction which is the subject of the suit. In addition, under Delaware case law, the plaintiff normally must be a shareholder not only at the time of the transaction that is the subject of the suit, but also throughout the duration of the derivative suit. Delaware law also requires that the derivative plaintiff make a demand on the directors of the corporation to assert the corporate claim before the suit may be prosecuted by the		Unlike under Delaware law, in the event a third party is liable to a Dutch company, in general, only the company itself can bring a civil action against that party. Individual shareholders do not have the right to bring an action on behalf of the company. Only in the event that the cause for the liability of a third party to the company also constitutes a tortious act directly against a shareholder that shareholder may have an individual right of action against such third party in its own name. The Dutch Civil Code provides for the possibility to initiate such actions collectively. A foundation or an association whose objective is to protect the rights of a group of persons having similar interests can institute a collective action. The collective action itself cannot result in an order for payment of monetary damages but may only result in

derivative plaintiff in court, unless such a demand would be futile. The derivative plaintiff must also be an adequate representative of the corporation’s other shareholders.		a declaratory judgment ( verklaring voor recht ). In order to obtain compensation for damages, the foundation or association and the defendant may reach—often on the basis of such declaratory judgment—a settlement. A Dutch court may declare the settlement agreement binding upon all the injured parties with an opt-out choice for an individual injured party. An individual injured party may also itself institute a civil claim for damages. Under Dutch law, shareholders meeting certain thresholds and certain other stakeholders of the company can initiate inquiry proceedings with the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal ( Ondernemingskamer ). Claimants may request an inquiry into the policy of the company and the conduct of its business. The Dutch Enterprise Chamber will only order an inquiry if a plaintiff can demonstrate that well-founded reasons exist to doubt the soundness of the policies of the company or the conduct of its business. The proceedings may only be initiated after the claimant has given the board of directors of the company advance written notice of its objections to the policy of the company or the conduct of the business. Ample time should be given to the company to examine the objections and to address the legal issues.

Limitation of Personal Liability of Directors
Wright’s charter provides that no director of Wright will be personally liable to Wright or any of its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (a) under Section 174 of the DGCL, (b) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to Wright or its shareholders, (c) for acts or omissions not in good faith, (d) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or (e) for which the director derived an improper personal benefit.		Tornier’s articles of association provide that Tornier shall indemnify any of its directors against all adverse financial effects incurred by such person in connection with any action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that reasonably could be believed to be in or not opposed to Tornier’s best interests, provided that such indemnification will not be made in respect of any claim as to which the director has been finally adjudged to be liable for gross negligence or willful misconduct in his or her duty to Tornier.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Wright’s charter provides that Wright will indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL (as it now exists or subsequently exists), any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of Wright, or is or was serving as a director, officer, trustee, employee		In addition to the indemnification rights described above under “— Limitation of Personal Liability of Directors ,” Tornier has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers. Each indemnification agreement, which is governed by the laws of Delaware, provide, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and Tornier’s articles of association against any and

or agent of another entity at the request of Wright, so long as the person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Wright, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Wright’s bylaws provide that Wright will indemnify any and all of its directors and officers, including former directors and officers, including those serving as officer or director of any corporation at the request of Wright, to the fullest extent permitted under and in accordance with the Delaware law. Wright has approved a form of indemnification agreement that provides for the indemnification of directors and officers.		all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and liabilities, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by a director or officer or on such director’s or officer’s behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, but shall only be provided if the director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner such director or officer reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Tornier, and, with respect to any criminal action, suit or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such director’s or officer’s conduct was unlawful. Each indemnification agreement provides that the director or officer shall not be indemnified and advanced expenses (a) with respect to an action, suit or proceeding initiated by the director or officer unless so authorized by the Tornier board of directors or (b) with respect to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the director or officer to enforce or interpret such indemnification agreement unless the director or officer is successful in establishing a right to indemnification in such action, suit or proceeding, in whole or in part, or unless and to the extent that the court in such action, suit or proceeding shall determine that, despite such director’s or officer’s failure to establish the right to indemnification, the director or officer is entitled to indemnity for such expenses. Tornier currently maintains liability insurance for its directors and officers. As described above under “ The Merger Agreement—Certain Covenants ,” Tornier has agreed to provide, for a period of six years after the effective date of the merger, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance covering acts or omissions occurring before the effective time of the merger by each person who, as of the date of the merger agreement, was covered by Wright’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to Tornier’s directors, officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Tornier has been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Certain Business Combinations / Anti-Takeover Provisions
Under Delaware law, a corporation can elect not to be governed by section 203 of the DGCL, which generally protects publicly held Delaware corporations from unfair transactions and tactics by persons who acquire large blocks of stock without prior board approval. Wright has not made this election and is therefore subject to the restrictions of section 203 of the DGCL. In general, section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested” shareholder for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested shareholder, unless the business combination or the transaction by which the person became an interested shareholder is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes certain mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the interested shareholder. Subject to exceptions, an “interested” shareholder is a person who, alone or together with his affiliates and associates, owns 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock. These provisions could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Wright or reducing the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for Wright shares.		Unlike under Delaware law, neither Dutch law nor Tornier’s articles of association specifically prevents business combinations with interested shareholders. Under Dutch law various protective measures are as such possible and admissible, within the boundaries set by Dutch case law and Dutch law, in particular the Dutch Corporate Governance Code.

Shareholder Vote on Certain Reorganizations
Under the DGCL, the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote thereon generally is necessary to approve a merger or consolidation or the sale of substantially all of the assets of a corporation. The DGCL permits a corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a provision requiring for any corporate action the vote of a larger portion of the stock or of any class or series of stock than would otherwise be required. Under the DGCL, no vote of the shareholders of a surviving corporation to a merger is needed; however, unless required by the certificate of incorporation, if (a) the agreement of merger does not amend in any respect the certificate of incorporation of the surviving corporation, (b) each share of stock of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger continues to be an identical outstanding (or treasury share) of the surviving corporation, and (c) either no shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock will be issued by the surviving corporation in the merger, or the authorized and unissued shares and treasury shares of common stock (plus those		Under Tornier’s articles of association, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders may resolve, upon a proposal of the Tornier board of directors, that Tornier concludes a legal merger ( juridische fusie ) or a demerger ( splitsing ). In addition, the general meeting of Tornier shareholders must approve resolutions of the Tornier board of directors concerning an important change in the identity or character of Tornier or its business, in any event including: • the transfer of the enterprise or a substantial part thereof to a third party; • the entering into or ending of a long-lasting cooperation of the company or a subsidiary with a third party, if this cooperation or the ending thereof is of far-reaching significance for the company; and • the acquiring or disposing of an interest in the share capital of a company with a value of at least one-third of the company’s assets according to the most recent annual accounts, by the company or a subsidiary.

convertible into common stock) to be delivered in the merger do not exceed 20% of the shares of common stock of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger. In addition, shareholders may not be entitled to vote in certain mergers with other corporations that own 90% or more of the outstanding shares of each class of stock of such corporation, but the shareholders will be entitled to appraisal rights. Neither Wright’s charter nor Wright’s bylaws contain any provisions relating to business combinations.		Under Dutch law, a shareholder who owns at least 95% of the company’s issued capital may institute proceedings against the company’s other shareholders jointly for the transfer of their shares to that shareholder. The proceedings are held before the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal ( Ondernemingskamer ), which may grant the claim for squeeze out in relation to all minority shareholders and will determine the price to be paid for the shares, if necessary after appointment of one or three experts who will offer an opinion to the Enterprise Chamber on the value of the shares.

Conflict-of-Interest Transactions
The DGCL generally permits transactions involving a Delaware corporation and an interested director of that corporation if: • the material facts as to the director’s relationship or interest are disclosed and a majority of disinterested directors consent; or • the material facts are disclosed as to the director’s relationship or interest and a majority of shares entitled to vote thereon consent; or • the transaction is fair to the corporation at the time it is authorized by the board of directors, a committee of the board of directors or the shareholders.		Under Dutch law, members of the board of directors may not participate in the deliberation and the decision-making process on a subject or transaction in relation to which he or she has a conflict of interest with the company. If all directors are conflicted and in the absence of a supervisory board, the resolution shall be adopted by the general meeting of shareholders, except if the articles of association prescribe otherwise. Tornier’s articles of association provide that a director shall not take part in any vote on a subject or transaction in relation to which he or she has a conflict of interest with the company. In such event, the other directors shall be authorized to adopt the resolution. If all directors have a conflict of interest as mentioned above, the resolution shall be adopted by the non-executive directors.

Director Compensation
Under the DGCL, the shareholders do not generally have the right to approve the compensation policy for the board of directors or the senior management of the corporation, although certain aspects of the compensation policy may be subject to shareholder vote due to the provisions of federal securities and tax law.		In contrast to Delaware law, under Dutch law the Tornier shareholders must adopt the compensation policy for the Tornier board of directors, which includes a description of the elements of the compensation of any members who serve on the Tornier board of directors.

LEGAL MATTERS

The valid issuance of the Tornier ordinary shares in connection with the merger has been passed upon for Tornier by Stibbe N.V., Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Ropes & Gray LLP, counsel to Wright, has provided an opinion to Wright regarding material U.S. federal income tax matters set forth in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. Willie Farr & Gallagher LLP, counsel to Tornier, has provided an opinion to Tornier regarding material U.S. federal income tax matters set forth in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

EXPERTS

Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, has audited Tornier’s consolidated financial statements and schedule included in Tornier’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2014, and the effectiveness of Tornier’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2014, as set forth in their reports, which are incorporated by reference in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and elsewhere in the registration statement. Tornier’s financial statements and schedule and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2014 are incorporated by reference in reliance on Ernst & Young LLP’s reports, given on their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.

The consolidated financial statements and schedule of Wright as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014, and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 have been incorporated by reference herein in reliance upon the reports of KPMG LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated by reference herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

TORNIER WAS FORMED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE NETHERLANDS AND, AS SUCH, THE RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF TORNIER’S ORDINARY SHARES AND THE CIVIL LIABILITY OF TORNIER’S DIRECTORS ARE GOVERNED BY DUTCH LAW AND TORNIER’S ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION. THE RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS UNDER THE LAWS OF THE NETHERLANDS MAY DIFFER FROM THE RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS OF COMPANIES INCORPORATED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS. SOME OF THE NAMED EXPERTS OF TORNIER REFERRED TO IN THIS JOINT PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS ARE NOT RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES, AND CERTAIN OF TORNIER’S DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND MOST OF TORNIER’S ASSETS AND SOME OF THE ASSETS OF TORNIER’S DIRECTORS ARE LOCATED OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. AS A RESULT, THE HOLDERS OF TORNIER ORDINARY SHARES MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SERVE PROCESS ON TORNIER OR ON SUCH PERSONS IN THE UNITED STATES OR OBTAIN OR ENFORCE JUDGMENTS FROM U.S. COURTS AGAINST THEM OR TORNIER BASED ON THE CIVIL LIABILITY PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES. THERE IS DOUBT AS TO WHETHER DUTCH COURTS WOULD ENFORCE CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER U.S. SECURITIES LAWS IN ORIGINAL ACTIONS OR ENFORCE CLAIMS FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. UNDER TORNIER’S ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION, TORNIER INDEMNIFIES AND HOLDS ITS DIRECTORS HARMLESS AGAINST ALL CLAIMS AND SUITS BROUGHT AGAINST THEM, SUBJECT TO LIMITED EXCEPTIONS. ALTHOUGH THERE IS DOUBT AS TO WHETHER U.S. COURTS WOULD ENFORCE SUCH PROVISION IN AN ACTION BROUGHT IN THE UNITED STATES UNDER U.S. SECURITIES LAWS, SUCH PROVISION COULD MAKE ENFORCING JUDGMENTS OBTAINED OUTSIDE OF THE NETHERLANDS MORE DIFFICULT TO ENFORCE AGAINST TORNIER’S ASSETS IN THE NETHERLANDS OR JURISDICTIONS THAT WOULD APPLY DUTCH LAW.

298

FUTURE SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Wright

Wright will hold an annual meeting of shareholders in the year 2015 only if the merger has not already been completed. If the annual meeting is held, any proposal that a Wright shareholder intends to present at the Wright 2015 annual meeting of shareholders must have been received by Wright’s Corporate Secretary no later than December 1, 2014 in order to be included in the proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that meeting as disclosed in Wright’s proxy statement filed on March 31, 2014, with the SEC.

Wright’s bylaws provide that shareholder nominations for director or proposals of other business may be made only in compliance with certain advance notice, informational and other applicable requirements as described under “ Comparison of the Rights of Wright Shareholders and Tornier Shareholders—Advance Notice of Director Nominations and Other Shareholder Proposals .” Shareholder proposals must be sent to Corporate Secretary, Wright Medical Group, Inc., 1023 Cherry Road, Memphis, Tennessee 38117.

Wright will not be required to include in its proxy statement any shareholder proposal that does not meet all the requirements for such inclusion established by the SEC’s proxy rules and Delaware corporate law.

Tornier

Tornier intends to hold an annual general meeting on June 18, 2015. Pursuant to Dutch law, the agenda for a meeting of shareholders must contain such items as the Tornier board of directors or the person or persons convening the meeting decide.

In addition, Dutch law prescribes that the agenda shall also contain such other items as one or more Tornier shareholders, representing at least 3% of the issued Tornier share capital may request of the Tornier board of directors in writing, at least 60 days before the date of the meeting.

Any other shareholder proposals to be presented at Tornier’s 2015 annual general meeting of shareholders must be given in writing to Tornier’s Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary no later than 60 days prior to Tornier’s 2015 annual general meeting of shareholders, as required by Tornier’s articles of association.

Tornier’s articles of association provide that proposals of business may be made only in compliance with certain advance notice, informational and other applicable requirements as described under “ Comparison of the Rights of Wright Shareholders and Tornier Shareholders—Advance Notice of Director Nominations and Other Shareholder Proposals .” Shareholder proposals must be sent to the Tornier board of directors, c/o Kevin M. Klemz, Senior Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, Tornier N.V., Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands. These advance notice, informational and other provisions are in addition to, and separate from, the requirements that a shareholder must meet in order to have a proposal included in the proxy statement under the rules of the SEC. Tornier will not be required to include in its proxy statement any shareholder proposal that does not meet all the requirements for such inclusion established by the SEC’s proxy rules and Dutch law.

2.08 Treatment of Ranger Shares and Ranger Equity Awards .

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Trooper, Merger Sub, Ranger or any holder of shares thereof:

(i) each Ranger Share held as of the Effective Time by Trooper, Merger Sub, any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Ranger or Trooper or by Ranger as treasury shares (collectively, the “ Excluded Shares ”), shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor; and

(ii) subject to Section 2.08(b) , Section 2.08(d) and Section 2.13 , each Ranger Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including shares outstanding pursuant to Section 2.08(b)(i) below (other than the Excluded Shares) shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive 1.0309 fully paid and nonassessable Trooper Shares (such ratio, as such number may be adjusted in accordance with this ARTICLE 2 , the “ Exchange Ratio ”).

The aggregate number of Trooper Shares issuable pursuant to Section 2.08(a)(ii) and Section 2.08(b)(ii) is referred to as the “ Merger Consideration .”

(b) As of immediately prior to the Effective Time and subject to Section 2.13 :

(i) each Ranger Restricted Share award that is then outstanding shall automatically become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions, and, at the Effective Time, shall be converted pursuant to Section 2.08(a)(ii) ;

Such Ranger RSUs shall be treated as Ranger Shares for purposes of, and such Trooper Shares received in conversion therefor shall be delivered in accordance with, Section 2.10 .

A-17

(iii) each Ranger Option that is then outstanding shall be (or, to the extent it is unvested, shall automatically become) fully vested and shall, without any action on the part of Ranger, Trooper or the holder of the Ranger Option, be exchanged for an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Ranger Option prior to the Merger (after giving effect to the acceleration of vesting as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), that number of Trooper Shares that is equal to the product of (A) the number of Ranger Shares subject to the Ranger Option and (B) the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Trooper Shares, at an exercise price per share of Trooper Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of the Ranger Option by (y) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. To the extent that Section 409A or Section 421(a) of the Code applies to any such Ranger Option, the foregoing adjustment will be subject to such modifications, if any, as are required to cause the substitution contemplated by this Section 2.08(b)(iii) to be made in a manner consistent with Section 409A or Section 421(a) of the Code, as applicable; and

Any Ranger Shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a Trooper Share pursuant to the Merger (after taking into account all Ranger Shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time by such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender of such Ranger Share Certificate or Book-Entry Shares, be paid in cash the dollar amount determined in accordance with Section 2.10(e) . The parties acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional Trooper Shares was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Trooper that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional Trooper Shares.

(d) All calculations performed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be calculated to four decimal places (0.0001).

A-18

of Ranger Share Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall cease to have any rights as shareholders of Ranger; and (ii) the stock transfer books of Ranger shall be closed with respect to all Ranger Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

2.10 Exchange Fund; Exchange of Certificates .

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, Trooper and Ranger shall mutually select a bank or trust company, which may be the transfer agent for the Trooper Shares, to act as escrow and exchange agent in the Merger (the “ Escrow and Exchange Agent ”), and, not later than the Effective Time, Trooper shall enter into an agreement with such bank or trust company, which agreement shall be reasonably acceptable to Ranger (the “ Escrow Agency Agreement ”).

(b) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agency Agreement, as soon as possible on the Closing Date after the Effective Time:

(i) In order to facilitate the payment of the Merger Consideration to the former Ranger Shareholders, Holdco shall issue to the Escrow and Exchange Agent (1) a promissory note receivable on Holdco (the terms and conditions, including principal amount, for which to be mutually agreed upon by the parties prior to the Closing Date) (the “ Holdco Note ”) and (2) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Holdco (the “ Holdco Shares ”), which Holdco Note and Holdco Shares shall have an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of the Ranger Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including shares outstanding pursuant to Section 2.08(b)(i) (other than Excluded Shares). The Escrow and Exchange Agent shall receive the Holdco Note and the Holdco Shares to facilitate the payment of the Merger Consideration. The holding of the Holdco Note and Holdco Shares by the Escrow and Exchange Agent is for the indirect benefit of the former Ranger Shareholders in that the holding of the Holdco Note and Holdco Shares will be for the purposes of paying up the Trooper Shares to be issued as Merger Consideration to the former Ranger Shareholders.

(ii) In accordance with provisions of Section 2:94b of the Dutch Civil Code, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall contribute the Holdco Note and Holdco Shares that were issued to the Escrow and Exchange Agent to Trooper as a contribution in kind ( inbreng op aandelen anders dan in geld ) to pay up the Trooper Shares to be issued as Merger Consideration.

(iii) In accordance with provisions of Section 2:94b of the Dutch Civil Code and in consideration of the contribution pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii) , Trooper shall issue and deliver, at the Effective Time to the Escrow and Exchange Agent solely for the account and benefit of the former Ranger Shareholders, the maximum number of Trooper Shares that have become issuable pursuant to Section 2.08(a)(ii) for delivery to the Merger Consideration recipients entitled thereto (such Trooper Shares being the “ Exchange Fund ”).

At the Effective Time, the obligations of Trooper, Holdco and the Escrow and Exchange Agent under this Section 2.10(b) shall be unconditional.

(c) At the Effective Time and without any action on the part of any holder, all Book-Entry Shares shall be deemed surrendered to the Escrow and Exchange Agent and Trooper shall cause the Escrow and Exchange Agent to (i) deliver to each holder of Book-Entry Shares that number of uncertificated whole Trooper Shares that the holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE 2 and cancel such Book-Entry Shares and (ii) mail to each holder of Book-Entry Shares a check in the amount of any cash payable in respect of such holder Book-Entry Shares pursuant to Section 2.10(e) .

A-19

(d) Trooper shall cause the Escrow and Exchange Agent to mail to the record holders of Ranger Share Certificates (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Trooper and Ranger may reasonably specify (including a provision confirming that delivery of Ranger Share Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Ranger Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of such Ranger Share Certificates to the Escrow and Exchange Agent) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Ranger Share Certificates in exchange for the Trooper Shares, as provided in Section 2.08(a) . Upon surrender of a Ranger Share Certificate to the Escrow and Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Escrow and Exchange Agent or Trooper, (A) the holder of such Ranger Share Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange a certificate or evidence of shares in book entry form representing the number of whole Trooper Shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.08(a) (and cash in lieu of any fractional Trooper Shares pursuant to Section 2.10(e) ) and (B) the Ranger Share Certificate so surrendered shall immediately be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.10(d) , each Ranger Share Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive Trooper Shares (and cash in lieu of any fractional Trooper Shares pursuant to Section 2.10(e) ) as contemplated by this ARTICLE 2 and any distribution or dividend with respect to Trooper Shares, the record date for which is after the Effective Time. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Ranger Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of Ranger, a certificate or evidence of shares in book-entry form representing the proper number of Trooper Shares may be issued to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Ranger Share Certificate so surrendered is registered if such Ranger Share Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such issuances shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of the Trooper Shares to a person other than the registered holder of such Ranger Shares or establish to the satisfaction of Trooper that such Taxes have been paid or are not applicable. If any Ranger Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Trooper may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance of any certificate or evidence of shares in book-entry form representing Trooper Shares, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Ranger Share Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond (in such sum as Trooper may reasonably direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Escrow and Exchange Agent, Trooper, Holdco, or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Ranger Share Certificate.

(e) As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (A) the number of whole Trooper Shares issued and delivered to the Escrow and Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(b) representing the Merger Consideration over (B) the aggregate number of whole Trooper Shares to be distributed to former holders of Ranger Shares pursuant to Section 2.08(a) and Section 2.08(b)(ii) (determined before taking into account any Trooper Shares withheld under Section 2.11 ) (such excess, the “ Trooper Excess Shares ”). Following the Effective Time, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall, on behalf of former shareholders of Ranger, sell the Trooper Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on the NASDAQ, all in the manner provided in Section 2.10(e)(i) .

(i) The sale of the Trooper Excess Shares by the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall be executed on the NASDAQ through one or more member firms of the NASDAQ and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. The Escrow and Exchange Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the sale of the Trooper Excess Shares as promptly following the Effective Time as is practicable, consistent with obtaining the best execution of such sales in light of prevailing market conditions. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Ranger Share Certificates and Book-Entry Shares formerly representing Ranger Shares, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for holders of Ranger Shares (the “ Ranger Shares Trust ”). Trooper shall pay all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, including the expenses and compensation of the Escrow and Exchange Agent incurred in connection with such sale of Trooper Excess Shares. The Escrow and Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of the Ranger Shares Trust to which each former Ranger Shareholder is entitled, if any, by multiplying that amount of the aggregate net proceeds composing the Ranger Shares Trust by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such former Ranger

A-20

Shareholder is entitled (after taking into account all Ranger Shares held as of immediately prior to the Effective Time by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all former holders of Ranger Shares are entitled.

(ii) As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Ranger Share Certificates and Book-Entry Shares formerly representing Ranger Shares with respect to any fractional share interest, the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall make available such amounts to such holders of Ranger Share Certificates and Book-Entry Shares, subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10 .

(f) All Trooper Shares to be issued and delivered to the Escrow and Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time, and whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by Trooper in respect of Trooper Shares, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all Trooper Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to the Trooper Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of an unsurrendered Ranger Share Certificate with respect to the Trooper Shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the Merger until such holder surrenders such Ranger Share Certificate in accordance with this Section 2.10 . All such dividends and other distributions shall be paid by Trooper to the Escrow and Exchange Agent after deduction of any applicable Taxes and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Ranger Share Certificate in accordance with this Section 2.10 . Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Ranger Share Certificate there shall be paid to the recordholder thereof, without interest, (A) at the time of such surrender, the dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to such Trooper Shares and not paid and (B) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such Trooper Shares with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to surrender.

(g) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Ranger Share Certificates as of the date one (1) year after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Trooper upon demand, and any holders of Ranger Share Certificates who have not theretofore surrendered their Ranger Share Certificates to the Escrow and Exchange Agent in accordance with this Section 2.10(g) , as well as any holders of Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore cashed any check payable to them in accordance with Section 2.10(e) , shall thereafter look only to Trooper for satisfaction of their claims for Trooper Shares, cash in lieu of fractional Trooper Shares and any dividends or distributions with respect to Trooper Shares, subject to applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Law.

(h) Neither Trooper, Holdco, nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any current or former Ranger Shareholder or to any other Person with respect to any Trooper Shares (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, properly delivered to any public official in compliance with any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Law. If any Ranger Share Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to five (5) years after the Closing Date (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Trooper Shares or any dividends or other distributions payable to the holder of such Ranger Share Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Body), any Trooper Shares issuable upon the surrender of, or any dividends or other distributions in respect of, such Ranger Share Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Trooper, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

2.11 Withholding . Each of Ranger, Trooper, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation (as applicable) shall be entitled to deduct or withhold such amounts as it determines, in its sole discretion, are necessary to cover all required withholdings from the amounts payable (including Trooper Shares deliverable) under this Agreement in accordance with the Code and any other applicable Law, and the Escrow and Exchange Agent shall be entitled to so deduct or withhold to the extent it is entitled as set forth in the general instructions in the letter of transmittal.

A-21

Any such withheld or deducted amount shall be timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Body and treated as though such amount had been paid to the Person in respect of whom such withholding was required.

2.12 Interest; No Liability . All payments made pursuant to this ARTICLE 2 shall be without interest. Neither Trooper, Holdco, Merger Sub nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash or securities delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar Law.

2.13 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution . Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, in the event that Ranger changes the number of Ranger Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time or Trooper changes the number of Trooper Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time, in either case, as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, subdivision, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction, the consideration paid in accordance with this Agreement, including the Exchange Ratio, shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

2.14 Alternative Structures . In the event of a change in Tax Law, the parties agree to reasonably cooperate in the consideration and implementation of alternative structures to effect the business combination contemplated by this Agreement, as long as any such alternative structure does not cause any condition set forth in ARTICLE 6 to not be capable of being, or not reasonably likely to be, satisfied on or before the Termination Date.

2.15 Further Action . If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Trooper or Ranger to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to rights and property of Merger Sub and Ranger, the officers and directors of Trooper shall be further authorized to take such action. Trooper and the Surviving Corporation also shall take such further actions as may be necessary or desirable to ensure that the Escrow and Exchange Agent sends out the letters of transmittal to Ranger Shareholders and issues certificates or evidence of shares in book-entry form representing Trooper Shares to such shareholders in accordance with Section 2.10 .

2.16 Post-Merger Operations . The Trooper Board shall take all necessary corporate action, to the extent within its power and authority, to cause the following to occur as of the Effective Time: (i) the directors constituting the Trooper Board shall be as set forth in Schedule 2.16 and duly nominated by the Trooper Board prior to the Effective Time, subject to such individuals’ ability and willingness to serve, and (ii) the non-executive chairman of the Trooper Board shall be designated in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 2.16 hereto, subject to such individual’s ability and willingness to serve. In the event any designee identified on Schedule 2.16 becomes unable or unwilling to serve as of the Effective Time as a director on the Trooper Board or as chairman thereof, a replacement for such designee shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 2.16 hereto.

Each such Non-U.S. Plan required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in all material respects in good standing with each applicable Governmental Body. No Ranger Plan that is a Non-U.S. Plan is a defined benefit pension plan.

A-44

Trooper Plan is so qualified, and Trooper is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to jeopardize the qualification of such Trooper Plan. The Trooper Plans comply in form and in operation in all material respects with the requirements of the Code, ERISA and other applicable Law, and Trooper has not become subject to any material liability by reason of (i) a failure to provide any notice, (ii) a failure to make any contribution to a Trooper Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code within the time prescribed for the contribution under ERISA or (iii) a breach of fiduciary duty or prohibited transaction under ERISA or any other applicable Law, in each case with respect to a Trooper Plan.

(d) Neither Trooper nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has at any time in the past six years sponsored or contributed to, or has or has had any liability or obligation in respect of any Trooper Plan (including any “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 3(37) or Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA)) that is or was at any relevant time subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code. None of the Trooper Plans obligates Trooper or its Subsidiaries to provide a current or former employee or other service provider (or any spouse or dependent thereof) any life insurance or medical or health benefits after his or her termination of employment with Trooper or any of its Subsidiaries, other than as required under Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA, Section 4980B of the Code or any other Law and coverage through the end of the month of termination of employment.

(e) Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, either individually or together with the occurrence of some other event (including a termination of employment or service), (i) result in any payment (including severance, bonus or other similar payment) becoming due to any Person, (ii) increase or otherwise enhance any benefits or compensation otherwise payable under any Trooper Plan, (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any benefits under any Trooper Plan, (iv) require Trooper or its Subsidiaries to set aside any assets to fund any benefits under a Trooper Plan or result in the forgiveness in whole or in part of any outstanding loans made by Trooper to any Person, (v) limit the ability to amend or terminate any Trooper Plan or related trust or (vi) result in the payment of any “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G or in the imposition of an excise Tax under Code Section 4999 or Section 409A (or any corresponding provision of state, local or foreign Tax law).

(f) With respect to each Trooper Plan that is a Non-U.S. Plan, and, except as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, the fair market value of the assets of each funded Non-U.S. Plan, the liability of each insurer for any non-U.S. Plan funded through insurance or the book reserve established for any Non-U.S. Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide for the benefits determined on an ongoing basis (actual or contingent) with respect to all current or

A-45

former participants under such Non-U.S. Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuation most recently used to determine employer contributions to such Non-U.S. Plan, and none of the contemplated transactions will cause such assets, insurance obligations or book reserves to be less than such benefit obligations. Each such Non-U.S. Plan required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in all material respects in good standing with each applicable Governmental Body. No Trooper Plan that is a Non-U.S. Plan is a defined benefit pension plan.

6.04 Non-Solicitation .

Ranger shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and instruct its and their respective Representatives to, promptly upon the execution of this Agreement cause to be terminated any solicitation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation with or involving any Person (other than Trooper and its Affiliates) conducted heretofore by Ranger or any Subsidiary thereof or any of its or their respective Representatives, with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or which could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, and, in connection therewith, Ranger will immediately discontinue access by any Person (other than Trooper and its Affiliates) to any data room (virtual or otherwise) established by Ranger or its Representatives for such purpose. Within ten (10) Business Days from the date hereof, Ranger shall request the return or destruction of all confidential, non-public information provided to third parties that have entered into confidentiality agreements with Ranger or any Subsidiary thereof since October 1, 2012, relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to obtaining Ranger Shareholder Approval, Ranger and the Ranger Board may take any actions described in clause (ii) of this Section 6.04(a) with respect to a third party if (x) Ranger receives a written Acquisition Proposal with respect to

A-57

Ranger from such third party (and such Acquisition Proposal was not initiated, sought, solicited, knowingly encouraged or facilitated in violation of this Section 6.04 ) and (y) such proposal constitutes, or the Ranger Board determines in good faith that such proposal is reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal with respect to Ranger; provided , that Ranger may deliver non-public information to such third party only pursuant to a confidentiality agreement containing terms no less favorable to Ranger with respect to confidentiality than the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement (including with any standstill agreement or similar provisions) (an “ Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement ”) and sends a copy of such Agreement to Trooper promptly following its execution. Nothing contained in this Section 6.04 shall prohibit Ranger or the Ranger Board from taking and disclosing to Ranger Shareholders a position with respect to an Acquisition Proposal with respect to Ranger pursuant to Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any similar disclosure, if the Ranger Board has reasonably determined in good faith that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to be a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Ranger Shareholders; provided , that this sentence shall not permit the Ranger Board to make a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change, except to the extent permitted by Section 6.04(b) or Section 6.04(c) .

(b) Neither the Ranger Board nor any committee thereof shall directly or indirectly (i) withhold, withdraw (or amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Trooper, Holdco or Merger Sub), or publicly propose to withdraw (or amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Trooper, Holdco or Merger Sub), the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Ranger Board or any such committee of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve any Acquisition Proposal with respect to Ranger or (iii) fail to reaffirm or re-publish the Ranger Recommendation within five (5) Business Days of being requested by Trooper to do so (any action described in this sentence being referred to as a “ Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change ”). For the avoidance of doubt, a change of Ranger Recommendation to “neutral” is a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining Ranger Shareholder Approval, and subject to Ranger’s compliance at all times with the provisions of this Section 6.04 and Section 6.03 , in response to a Superior Proposal with respect to Ranger that has not been withdrawn and did not result from a breach of Section 6.04(a) , the Ranger Board may make a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change; provided , however , that unless the Ranger Shareholders’ Meeting is scheduled to occur within the next ten (10) Business Days, Ranger shall not be entitled to exercise its right to make a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal with respect to Ranger (x) until five (5) Business Days after Ranger provides written notice to Trooper advising Trooper that the Ranger Board has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, identifying the Person or group making such Superior Proposal and including copies of all documents pertaining to such Superior Proposal; (y) if during such five (5) Business Day period, Trooper irrevocably proposes any alternative transaction (including any modifications to the terms of this Agreement), unless Ranger Board determines in good faith, after good faith negotiations between Ranger and Trooper (if such negotiations are requested by Trooper) during such five (5) Business Day period (after and taking into account all financial, legal and regulatory terms and conditions of such alternative transaction proposal and expected timing of consummation and the relative risks of non-consummation of the alternative transaction proposal and the Superior Proposal) that such alternative transaction proposal is not at least as favorable to Ranger and its shareholders as the Superior Proposal and (z) unless the Ranger Board determines that the failure to make a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change would be a breach of its fiduciary obligations.

(c) Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 6.04(b) , at any time prior to obtaining Ranger Shareholder Approval, in connection with any Intervening Event, the Ranger Board may make a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change, after the Ranger Board (i) determines in good faith that the failure to make such Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change would be a breach of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Ranger, (ii) determines in good faith that the reasons for making such Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change are independent of and unrelated to any pending Acquisition Proposal with respect to Ranger and (iii) provides written notice to Trooper (a “ Ranger Notice of Change ”) advising Trooper that the Ranger Board is contemplating making a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change and specifying the material facts and information constituting the basis for such contemplated determination; provided , however , that, unless the

Ranger Shareholders’ Meeting is scheduled to occur within the next five (5) Business Days, (x) the Ranger Board may not make such a Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change until the fifth Business Day after receipt by Trooper of a Ranger Notice of Change and (y) during such five (5) Business Day period, at the request of Trooper, Ranger shall negotiate in good faith with respect to any changes or modifications to this Agreement which would allow the Ranger Board not to make such Ranger Adverse Recommendation Change, consistent with its fiduciary duties.

(d) Trooper agrees that, except as expressly contemplated hereby, neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, and Trooper shall, and shall instruct its Subsidiaries to, instruct its and their respective Representatives not to directly or indirectly (i) initiate, seek or solicit, or knowingly encourage or facilitate (including by way of furnishing non-public information) or take any other action that is reasonably expected to promote, directly or indirectly, any inquiries or the making or submission of any proposal that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal with respect to Trooper; (ii) participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, or disclose any non-public information or data relating to Trooper or any of its Subsidiaries or afford access to the properties, books or records of Trooper or any of its Subsidiaries to any Person that has made an Acquisition Proposal with respect to Trooper or (iii) enter into any agreement, including any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal with respect to Trooper (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement permitted pursuant to this Section 6.04 ). Trooper shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and instruct its and their respective Representatives to, promptly upon the execution of this Agreement cause to be terminated any solicitation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation with or involving any Person (other than Ranger and its Affiliates) conducted heretofore by Trooper or any Subsidiary thereof or any of its or their respective Representatives, with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or which could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, and, in connection therewith, Trooper shall immediately discontinue access by any Person (other than Ranger and its Affiliates) to any data room (virtual or otherwise) established by Trooper or its Representatives for such purpose. Within ten (10) Business Days from the date hereof, Trooper shall request the return or destruction of all confidential, non-public information provided to third parties that have entered into confidentiality agreements with Trooper or any Subsidiary thereof since October 1, 2012, relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to obtaining the Trooper Shareholder Approval, Trooper and the Trooper Board may take any actions described in clause (ii) of this Section 6.04(d) with respect to a third party if (x) Trooper receives a written Acquisition Proposal with respect to Trooper from such third party (and such Acquisition Proposal was not initiated, sought, solicited, knowingly encouraged or facilitated in violation of this Section 6.04 ) and (y) such proposal constitutes, or the Trooper Board determines in good faith that such proposal is reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal with respect to Trooper; provided , that Trooper may deliver non-public information to such third party only pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (but in relation to Trooper rather than Ranger). Nothing contained in this Section 6.04 shall prohibit Trooper or the Trooper Board from taking and disclosing to the Trooper Shareholders a position with respect to an Acquisition Proposal with respect to Trooper pursuant to Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any similar disclosure, if the Trooper Board has reasonably determined in good faith that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to be a breach of its fiduciary duties; provided , that this sentence shall not permit the Trooper Board to make a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change, except to the extent permitted by Section 6.04(e) or Section 6.04(f) .

(e) Neither the Trooper Board nor any committee thereof shall directly or indirectly (1) withhold, withdraw (or amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Ranger) or publicly propose to withdraw (or amend, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Ranger), the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Trooper Board or any such committee of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including the issuance of Trooper Shares in the Merger; (ii) propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve any Acquisition Proposal with respect to Trooper or (iii) fail to reaffirm or re-publish the Trooper Recommendation within five (5) Business Days of being requested by Ranger to do so (any action described in this sentence being referred to as a “ Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change ”). For the avoidance of doubt, a

A-59

change of Trooper Recommendation to “neutral” is a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Trooper Shareholder Approval, and subject to Trooper’s compliance at all times with the provisions of this Section 6.04 and Section 6.03 , in response to a Superior Proposal with respect to Trooper that has not been withdrawn and did not result from a breach of Section 6.04(d) , the Trooper Board may make a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change; provided , however , that unless the Trooper Shareholders’ Meeting is scheduled to occur with the next ten (10) Business Days, Trooper shall not be entitled to exercise its right to make a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal with respect to Trooper (x) until five (5) Business Days after Trooper provides written notice to Ranger advising Ranger that the Trooper Board has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, identifying the Person or group making such Superior Proposal and including copies of all documents pertaining to such Superior Proposal; (y) if during such five (5) Business Day period, Ranger irrevocably proposes any alternative transaction (including any modifications to the terms of this Agreement), unless the Trooper Board determines in good faith, after good faith negotiations between Trooper and Ranger (if such negotiations are requested by Ranger) during such five (5) Business Day period (after and taking into account all financial, legal and regulatory terms and conditions of such alternative transaction proposal and expected timing of consummation and the relative risks of non-consummation of the alternative transaction proposal and the Superior Proposal) that such alternative transaction proposal is not at least as favorable to Trooper and its shareholders as the Superior Proposal and (z) unless the Trooper Board determines that the failure to make a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change would be a breach of its fiduciary obligations.

(f) Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 6.04(e) , at any time prior to obtaining the Trooper Shareholder Approval, in connection with any Intervening Event, the Trooper Board may make a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change after the Trooper Board (i) determines in good faith that the failure to make such Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change would be a breach of its fiduciary duties, (ii) determines in good faith that the reasons for making such Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change are independent and unrelated to any pending Acquisition Proposal with respect to Ranger and (iii) provides written notice to Ranger (a “ Trooper Notice of Change ”) advising Ranger that the Trooper Board is contemplating making a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change and specifying the material facts and information constituting the basis for such contemplated determination; provided , however , that, unless the Trooper Shareholders’ Meeting is scheduled to occur within the next five (5) Business Days, (x) the Trooper Board may not make such a Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change until the fifth Business Day after receipt by Ranger of the Trooper Notice of Change and (y) during such five (5) Business Day period, at the request of Ranger, Trooper shall negotiate in good faith with respect to any changes or modifications to this Agreement which would allow the Trooper Board not to make such Trooper Adverse Recommendation Change, consistent with its fiduciary duties.

(g) The parties agree that in addition to the obligations of Ranger and Trooper set forth in paragraphs (a) through (f) of this Section 6.04 , as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, Ranger or Trooper, as applicable, shall advise Trooper or Ranger, respectively, in writing of any request for information or any Acquisition Proposal with respect to such party received from any Person, or any inquiry, discussions or negotiations with respect to any Acquisition Proposal with respect to such party, and the terms and conditions of such request, Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, discussions or negotiations, and Ranger or Trooper, as applicable, shall promptly provide to Trooper or Ranger, respectively, copies of any written materials received by Ranger or Trooper, as applicable, in connection with any of the foregoing and the identity of the Person or group making any such request, Acquisition Proposal or inquiry or with whom any discussions or negotiations are taking place. Each of Ranger and Trooper agrees that it shall simultaneously provide to the other any non-public information concerning itself or its Subsidiaries provided to any other Person or group in connection with any Acquisition Proposal which was not previously provided to the other. Ranger and Trooper shall keep Trooper and Ranger, respectively, fully informed of the status of any Acquisition Proposals (including the identity of the parties and price involved and any changes to any material terms and conditions thereof). Each of Ranger and Trooper agrees not to release any third party from, or waive any provisions of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it is a party or fail to enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any such standstill or similar agreement to which it is a party.

A-61

It is the specific intention that, in each of the markets in which they operate, the compensation and benefit programs of the Surviving Corporation and Trooper (i) will be competitive with those provided generally in their industry, both with respect to the type and variety of programs as well as the level of benefits afforded, and (ii) will treat similarly-situated Ranger Employees and Trooper Employees on a substantially comparable basis, taking into account all relevant factors, including duties, geographic location, tenure, qualifications and abilities.

(b) For all purposes under the employee benefit plans of Trooper and its Subsidiaries providing benefits to any Employees after the Effective Time (the “ New Plans ”), each Ranger Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with Ranger and its Subsidiaries before the Effective Time for purposes of vesting, benefits eligibility and level of benefits, and each Trooper Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with Trooper and its Subsidiaries before the Effective Time for such purposes, to the same extent as such Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Ranger Plan or Trooper Plan, as applicable; provided , however , that such service crediting shall not be required (i) to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits or (ii) to the extent Ranger Employees and Trooper Employees are equally affected without regard to whether employment before the Effective Time was with Ranger and its Subsidiaries or Trooper and its Subsidiaries (for example, in the event a New Plan is adopted for Ranger Employees and Trooper Employees under which no participants receive credit for service before the effective date of the New Plan). In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (b), Trooper shall make commercially reasonable efforts to provide that (i) each Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan replaces coverage under a comparable Ranger Plan or Trooper Plan in which such Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “ Old Plans ”), and,

A-62

(ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Employee, pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan are waived for such Employee and his or her covered dependents, and any eligible expenses incurred by such Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins are taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(c) Trooper and Ranger shall take all actions necessary or desirable to cause (i) each Trooper Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to become fully vested and exercisable at the Effective Time and to remain exercisable for the remainder of its term and (ii) each Trooper RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to become fully vested and free of any forfeiture restrictions at the Effective Time. Trooper shall provide Ranger with drafts of, and a reasonable opportunity to comment upon, all resolutions and other documents as may be required to effectuate the provisions of this Section 6.07(c) .

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall not be construed to prevent the termination of employment of any Employee or the amendment or termination of any particular Ranger Plan or Trooper Plan, to the extent permitted by its terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no provision of this Agreement is intended to, or does, constitute the establishment or adoption of, or amendment to, any Ranger Plan or Trooper Plan, and no person participating in any such plan shall have any claim or cause of action, under ERISA or otherwise, in respect of the provisions of this Agreement as it relates to any such plan or otherwise.

6.08 Indemnification of Officers and Directors .

(a) From and after the Effective Time, each of Trooper and the Surviving Corporation agrees that it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each present and former director, officer and employee of Ranger, each present and former director, member of the board of directors, officer and employee of any of Ranger’s Subsidiaries and any fiduciary under any Ranger Plan (in each case, when acting in such capacity), determined as of the Effective Time (the “ Indemnified Parties ”), against any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of Ranger or a member of the board of directors, officer, employee or fiduciary of any of its Subsidiaries or a fiduciary under any Ranger Plan, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time (including with respect to any acts or omissions in connection with this Agreement and the transactions and actions contemplated by this Agreement), to the fullest extent that Ranger would have been permitted under applicable Law and the applicable Organizational Documents (and, to the extent not contrary to applicable Law or its Organizational Documents, any indemnification agreement) in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify such Person, and Trooper or the Surviving Corporation shall also promptly advance expenses as incurred in advance of any final disposition of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation to the fullest extent that Ranger or its applicable Subsidiary would have been permitted under applicable Law or its Organizational Documents (and, to the extent not contrary to applicable Law or its Organizational Documents, any indemnification agreement) in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided , however , that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, if and only to the extent required by applicable Law or the applicable Organizational Documents (as in effect on the date hereof), to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification, and provided , further , that any determination required to be made with respect to whether a director’s, officer’s, employee’s or fiduciary’s conduct complied with the standards set forth under applicable Law and the applicable Organizational Documents (or the applicable organizational documents of a Subsidiary or Ranger Plan) shall be made by independent counsel selected by the Indemnified Party. In the event of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, (i) neither Trooper nor the Surviving Corporation shall settle,

compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (and in which indemnification could be sought by Indemnified Parties hereunder), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing, and (ii) the Surviving Corporation shall cooperate in the defense of such matter. The parties agree that this Section 6.08(a) does not purport to limit any rights that any Indemnified Party may have under any employment agreement, indemnification agreement, or Ranger Plan in effect on the date of this Agreement and disclosed to either party prior to the execution hereof, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would materially adversely affect the rights thereunder of any such individual.

No such provision in any Organizational Document or other agreement of the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of Ranger shall be amended, modified or repealed in any manner that would adversely affect the rights or protections thereunder to any such individual with respect to acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time. In addition, from and after the Effective Time, all directors, officers and employees and all fiduciaries currently indemnified under a Ranger Plan who become directors, officers, employees or fiduciaries under a Trooper Plan shall be entitled to the indemnity, advancement and exculpation rights and protections afforded to directors, officers and employees or fiduciaries under the applicable Trooper Plan. From and after the Effective Time, Trooper shall assume, be jointly and severally liable for, and honor, guaranty and stand surety for, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to honor and perform, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in this Section 6.08 without limit as to time.

(d) If Trooper or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Trooper or the Surviving Corporation shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.08 .

(e) The rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.08 shall be in addition to any rights such Indemnified Parties may have under the Organizational Documents of Ranger or the comparable documents of any of Ranger’s Subsidiaries, or under any applicable Contracts or Laws in effect on the date of this Agreement

A-64

1. Certain Covenants .

1.1. Lock-Up . Except as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that between the date hereof and the Termination Date (as defined in Section 6.1 of this Agreement), the Shareholder will not (a) sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, tender, encumber or otherwise dispose of or limit its right to vote in any manner any of the Shares, or agree to do any of the foregoing, or (b) take any action which would have the effect of preventing or disabling the Shareholder from performing its obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any transfer not involving or relating to any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Shareholder may transfer any or all of the Shares beneficially owned by the Shareholder to any Affiliate, subsidiary, partner or member of the Shareholder; provided , however , that in any such case, prior to and as a condition to the effectiveness of such transfer, (A) each Person to which any of such Shares or any interest in any of such Shares is or may be transferred shall have executed and delivered to Wright a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which such Person shall be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and (B) this Agreement shall be the legal, valid and binding agreement of such Person, enforceable against such person in accordance with its terms.

1.2. No Solicitation . Between the date hereof and the Termination Date, the Shareholder shall not, and shall not authorize or permit, any director, officer, agent, representative, employee, affiliate, advisor, attorney, accountant or associate of the Shareholder or those of its subsidiaries (collectively, “ Representatives ”) to, directly

B-1

or indirectly, take any action, in its or their capacity as a shareholder of Tornier, that Tornier is prohibited from taking pursuant to Section 6.04 of the Merger Agreement.

1.3. Certain Events . This Agreement and the obligations hereunder will attach to the Shares and will be binding upon any person to which legal or beneficial ownership of any or all of the Shares passes, whether by operation of Law or otherwise, including without limitation, the Shareholder’s successors or assigns. This Agreement and the obligations hereunder will also attach to any additional ordinary shares issued to or acquired by the Shareholder.

1.4. Grant of Proxy; Voting Agreement .

(a) The Shareholder has revoked or terminated any proxies, voting agreements or similar arrangements previously given or entered into with respect to the Shares and hereby grants Wright until the Termination Date a limited irrevocable proxy to vote the Shares as to which the Shareholder has voting power for the Shareholder and in the Shareholder’s name, place and stead, at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders of Tornier, as applicable, or at any adjournment thereof solely for the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger, subject to Section 1.4(c) of this Agreement. Wright hereby acknowledges that the proxy granted hereby shall not be effective for any other purpose. The parties acknowledge and agree that neither Wright, nor Wright’s successors, assigns, subsidiaries, divisions, employees, officers, directors, stockholders, agents and affiliates shall owe any duty to, whether in law or otherwise, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever, including without limitation, with respect to any and all claims, losses, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses (including attorney’s fees) and compensation of any kind or nature whatsoever to the Shareholder in connection with or as a result of any voting by Wright of the Shares subject to the irrevocable proxy hereby granted to Wright at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders of Tornier for the purpose set forth herein.

(b) During the term of this Agreement, the Shareholder agrees to vote the Shares, if any, as to which the Shareholder has voting power and has not given a proxy pursuant to paragraph (a) above in favor of or give its consent to, as applicable, a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement and thereby approve the Merger at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders of Tornier. In addition, if Wright elects not to exercise its rights to vote the Shares pursuant to the irrevocable proxy, the Shareholder also agrees to vote the Shares in favor of or give their consent to, as applicable, a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement and thereby approve the Merger at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders of Tornier.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 1.4(a) of this Agreement, the Shareholder acknowledges that Wright, Tornier, Holdings and Merger Sub may amend the Merger Agreement to allow for an alternative acquisition structure to accomplish the business combination of Wright and Tornier as contemplated in Section 2.14 of the Merger Agreement and that this irrevocable proxy may be voted for the approval of such amendment to the Merger Agreement and such alternative structure.

(d) This irrevocable proxy shall not be terminated by any act of the Shareholder or by operation of Law (including, without limiting the foregoing, by the dissolution or liquidation of any corporation or partnership). If between the execution hereof and the Termination Date, if any corporation or partnership holding the Shares should be dissolved or liquidated, or if any other such similar event or events shall occur before the Termination Date, certificates representing the Shares shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Shareholder in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and this Agreement, and actions taken by Wright hereunder shall be as valid as if such dissolution, liquidation or other similar event or events had not occurred, regardless of whether or not Wright has received notice of such dissolution, liquidation or other event.

October 27, 2014

The Board of Directors

Wright Medical Group, Inc.

1023 Cherry Road

Memphis, Tennessee 38117

Members of the Board of Directors:

You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), of Wright Medical Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), of the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) in the proposed merger (the “Transaction”) of the Company with Tornier N.V., a Dutch public limited company ( naamloze vennootschap ) (the “Merger Partner”). Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 27, 2014 (the “Agreement”), among the Company, the Merger Partner, Trooper Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Merger Partner, and Trooper Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Merger Partner (“Merger Sub”), the Company will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Merger Partner, and each outstanding share of Company Common Stock, other than shares of Company Common Stock held in treasury or owned by the Merger Partner, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Company or the Merger Partner, will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 ordinary shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of the Merger Partner, par value EUR 0.03 per share (the “Merger Partner Shares).

In connection with preparing our opinion, we have (i) reviewed a draft dated October 27, 2014 of the Agreement; (ii) reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information concerning the Company and the Merger Partner and the industries in which they operate; (iii) compared the proposed financial terms of the Transaction with the publicly available financial terms of certain transactions involving companies we deemed relevant and the consideration paid for such companies; (iv) compared the financial and operating performance of the Company and the Merger Partner with publicly available information concerning certain other companies we deemed relevant and reviewed the current and historical market prices of the Company Common Stock and the Merger Partner Shares and certain publicly traded securities of such other companies; (v) reviewed certain internal financial analyses and forecasts prepared by the managements of the Company and the Merger Partner, relating to their respective businesses, as well as the estimated amount and timing of the cost savings and related expenses and synergies expected to result from the Transaction (the “Synergies”); and (vi) performed such other financial studies and analyses and considered such other information as we deemed appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

In addition, we have held discussions with certain members of the management of the Company and the Merger Partner with respect to certain aspects of the Transaction, and the past and current business operations of the Company and the Merger Partner, the financial condition and future prospects and operations of the Company and the Merger Partner, the effects of the Transaction on the financial condition and future prospects of the Company and the Merger Partner, and certain other matters we believed necessary or appropriate to our inquiry.

In giving our opinion, we have relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all information that was publicly available or was furnished to or discussed with us by the Company and the Merger Partner or otherwise reviewed by or for us, and we have not independently verified (nor have we assumed responsibility or liability for independently verifying) any such information or its accuracy or completeness. We have not

C-1

conducted or been provided with any valuation or appraisal of any assets or liabilities, nor have we evaluated the solvency of the Company or the Merger Partner under any state or federal laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. In relying on financial analyses and forecasts provided to us or derived therefrom, including the Synergies, we have assumed that they have been reasonably prepared based on assumptions reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments by management as to the expected future results of operations and financial condition of the Company and the Merger Partner to which such analyses or forecasts relate. We express no view as to such analyses or forecasts (including the Synergies) or the assumptions on which they were based. We have also assumed that the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by the Agreement will be consummated as described in the Agreement, and that the definitive Agreement will not differ in any material respects from the draft thereof furnished to us. We have also assumed that the representations and warranties made by the Company and the Merger Partner in the Agreement and the related agreements are and will be true and correct in all respects material to our analysis. We are not legal, regulatory or tax experts and have relied on the assessments made by advisors to the Company with respect to such issues. We have further assumed that all material governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for the consummation of the Transaction will be obtained without any adverse effect on the Company or the Merger Partner or on the contemplated benefits of the Transaction.

Our opinion is necessarily based on economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect this opinion and that we do not have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm this opinion. Our opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of the Company Common Stock of the Exchange Ratio in the proposed Transaction, and we express no opinion as to the fairness of any consideration to be paid in connection with the Transaction to the holders of any other class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of the Company or as to the underlying decision by the Company to engage in the Transaction. Furthermore, we express no opinion with respect to the amount or nature of any compensation to any officers, directors, or employees of any party to the Transaction, or any class of such persons relative to the Exchange Ratio applicable to the holders of the Company Common Stock in the Transaction or with respect to the fairness of any such compensation . We are expressing no opinion herein as to the price at which the Company Common Stock or the Merger Partner Shares will trade at any future time.

We have acted as financial advisor to the Company with respect to the proposed Transaction and will receive a fee from the Company for our services, a substantial portion of which will become payable only if the proposed Transaction is consummated. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities arising out of our engagement. During the two years preceding the date of this letter, we and our affiliates have had commercial or investment banking relationships with the Company and the Merger Partner, for which we and such affiliates have received customary compensation. Such services during such period have included acting as financial advisor to the Company in connection with its acquisition of BioMimetic in March of 2013 and acting as a bookrunner on the Merger Partner’s equity offering in May of 2013. In the ordinary course of our businesses, we and our affiliates may actively trade the debt and equity securities of the Company or the Merger Partner for our own account or for the accounts of customers and, accordingly, we may at any time hold long or short positions in such securities.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion as of the date hereof that the Exchange Ratio in the proposed Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of the Company Common Stock.

The issuance of this opinion has been approved by a fairness opinion committee of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC. This letter is provided to the Board of Directors of the Company (in its capacity as such) in connection with and for the purposes of its evaluation of the Transaction. This opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of the Company as to how such shareholder should vote with respect to the Transaction or any other matter. This opinion may not be disclosed, referred to, or communicated (in whole or in part) to any third party for any purpose whatsoever except with our prior written approval. This opinion may be reproduced in full in any

C-2

proxy or information statement mailed to shareholders of the Company but may not otherwise be disclosed publicly in any manner without our prior written approval.

Very truly yours,

J.P. MORGAN SECURITIES LLC

Members of the Board of Directors:

We understand that Wright Medical Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), is considering a transaction whereby Tornier N.V., a Dutch public limited company ( naamloze vennootschap ) (the “ Merger Partner ”), will effect a merger involving the Company. Pursuant to a proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “ Merger Agreement ”) to be entered into among the Merger Partner, Trooper Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Merger Partner (“ Holdco ”), Trooper Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Merger Partner (“ Merger Sub ”), and the Company, (a) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “ Merger ”) as a result of which the surviving entity will be an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Merger Partner, and (b) each holder of outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “ Company Common Stock ”), other than shares of Company Common Stock held in treasury or owned by the Merger Partner, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Company or the Merger Partner, will receive in respect of each such share of Company Common Stock, 1.0309 ordinary shares (the “ Exchange Ratio ”), par value EUR 0.03 per share, of the Merger Partner (the “ Merger Partner Shares ”). The terms and the conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Merger Agreement.

You have requested our opinion as to the fairness from a financial point of view to the holders of Company Common Stock (other than the Merger Partner or any of its affiliates) of the Exchange Ratio provided for in the proposed Merger.

For

conducted such other financial studies, analyses and investigations, and considered such other factors, as we have deemed appropriate.

In arriving at our opinion, we have assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information supplied or otherwise made available to us (including information that is available from generally recognized public sources) for purposes of this opinion and have further relied upon the assurances of the managements of the Company and of the Merger Partner that, to their knowledge, the information furnished by them for purposes of our analysis does not contain any material omissions or misstatements of material fact. We have assumed with your consent that there are no material undisclosed liabilities of the Company or the Merger Partner for which adequate reserves or other provisions have not been made. With respect to the Company Forecasts, we have been advised by the management of the Company and have assumed, with your consent, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of the Company as to the future financial performance of the Company and the other matters covered thereby and we express no view as to the assumptions on which they are based. With respect to the Merger Partner Forecasts, we have assumed, with your consent, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of the Merger Partner as to the future financial performance of the Merger Partner and the other matters covered thereby and we express no view as to the assumptions on which they are based. We have assumed, with your consent, that the Anticipated Synergies and potential strategic implications and operational benefits (including the amount, timing and achievability thereof) anticipated by the managements of the Company and the Merger Partner to result from the Merger will be realized in the amounts and at the times projected by the managements of the Company and the Merger Partner, and we express no view as to the assumptions on which they are based. We have relied without independent verification upon the assessment by the managements of the Company and of the Merger Partner of the timing and risks associated with the integration of the Company and the Merger Partner. In arriving at our opinion, we have not made any independent valuation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (including any contingent, derivative or off-balance-sheet assets and liabilities) of the Company or the Merger Partner, nor have we been furnished with any such valuations or appraisals, nor have we assumed any obligation to conduct, nor have we conducted, any physical inspection of the properties or facilities of the Company or the Merger Partner. In addition, we have not evaluated the solvency of any party to the Merger Agreement, including under any state or federal laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. We have assumed that the final Merger Agreement will not differ in any material respect from the form of Merger Agreement reviewed by us and that the Merger will be consummated in accordance with the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement, without material modification, waiver or delay. In addition, we have assumed that in connection with the receipt of all the necessary approvals of the proposed Merger, no delays, limitations, conditions or restrictions will be imposed that could have an adverse effect on the Company, the Merger Partner or the contemplated benefits expected to be derived in the proposed Merger. We have relied as to all legal matters relevant to rendering our opinion upon the advice of counsel.

This opinion addresses only the fairness from a financial point of view, as of the date hereof, of the Exchange Ratio to be received by the holders of the Company Common Stock (other than the Merger Partner or any of its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement. We have not been asked to, nor do we, offer any opinion as to any other term of the Merger Agreement, any other document contemplated by or entered into in connection with the Merger Agreement, the form or structure of the Merger or the likely timeframe in which the Merger will

be consummated. In addition, we express no opinion as to the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to be received by any officers, directors or employees of any parties to the Merger, or any class of such persons, whether relative to the Exchange Ratio to be received by the holders of the Company Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement or otherwise. We do not express any opinion as to any tax or other consequences that may result from the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any other related document, nor does our opinion address any legal, tax, regulatory or accounting matters, as to which we understand the Company has received such advice as it deems necessary from qualified professionals. Our opinion does not address the underlying business decision of the Company to enter into the Merger or the relative merits of the Merger as compared with any other strategic alternative which may be available to the Company.

We have acted as financial advisor to the Board of Directors of the Company in connection with the Merger and will receive a fee for our services, a portion of which is payable upon the execution of definitive documentation with respect to the Merger and a significant portion of which is contingent upon the consummation of the Merger. In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse us for certain expenses that may arise, and indemnify us for certain liabilities and other items that may arise, out of our engagement. During the two year period prior to the date hereof, Perella Weinberg Partners LP and its affiliates provided certain investment banking services to the Company and its affiliates for which Perella Weinberg Partners LP and its affiliates received compensation, including having acted as financial advisor to the Company in its acquisition of Solana Surgical, LLC. Perella Weinberg Partners LP and its affiliates may in the future provide investment banking and other financial services to the Company and the Merger Partner and their respective affiliates and in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of such services. In the ordinary course of our business activities, Perella Weinberg Partners LP or its affiliates may at any time hold long or short positions, and may trade or otherwise effect transactions, for our own account or the accounts of customers or clients, in debt or equity or other securities (or related derivative securities) or financial instruments (including bank loans or other obligations) of the Company or the Merger Partner or any of their respective affiliates. The issuance of this opinion was approved by a fairness opinion committee of Perella Weinberg Partners LP.

This opinion is for the information and assistance of the Board of Directors of the Company in connection with, and for the purposes of its evaluation of, the Merger. This opinion is not intended to be and does not constitute a recommendation to any holder of Company Common Stock as to how such holder should vote, make any election or otherwise act with respect to the proposed Merger or any other matter and does not in any manner address the prices at which shares of the Company Common Stock or the Merger Partner Shares will trade at any time. In addition, we express no opinion as to the fairness of the Merger to, or any consideration received in connection with the Merger by the holders of any other class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of the Company. Our opinion is necessarily based on financial, economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect this opinion and the assumptions used in preparing it, and we do not have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm this opinion.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, including the various assumptions and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Exchange Ratio to be received by the holders of Company Common Stock (other than the Merger Partner or any of its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement is fair from a financial point of view to such holders.

Very truly yours,

The Board of Directors

Tornier N.V.

Prins Bernhardplein 200

1097 JB Amsterdam

The Netherlands

Members of the Board of Directors:

We understand that Tornier N.V. (“Tornier”) proposes to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, (the “Agreement”), by and among Tornier, Tornier Holdings Inc. (“Holdco”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier, Tornier Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier, and Wright Medical Group, Inc. (“Wright”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into Wright (the “Merger”) and each outstanding share of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Wright (“Wright Common Stock”) will be converted into the right to receive 1.0309 (the “Exchange Ratio”) ordinary shares, par value EUR 0.03 per share, of Tornier (“Tornier Common Stock”). The terms and conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Agreement.

You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to Tornier of the Exchange Ratio provided for in the Merger.

In connection with this opinion, we have, among other things:

(i)

reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information relating to Wright and Tornier;

(ii)

reviewed certain internal financial and operating information with respect to the business, operations and prospects of Tornier furnished to or discussed with us by the management of Tornier, including certain financial forecasts relating to Tornier prepared by the management of Tornier (such forecasts, the “Tornier Forecasts”);

(iii)

reviewed certain internal financial and operating information with respect to the business, operations and prospects of Wright furnished to or discussed with us by the management of Wright, including certain financial forecasts relating to Wright prepared by the management of Wright (such forecasts, the “Wright Forecasts”) and such forecasts as adjusted by the management of Tornier (such forecasts, as adjusted, the “Adjusted Wright Forecasts”), and discussed with the management of Tornier its assessments as to the relative likelihood of achieving the future financial results reflected in the Wright Forecasts and the Adjusted Wright Forecasts;

(iv)

reviewed certain estimates as to the amount and timing of cost savings and tax benefits (collectively, the “Synergies”) anticipated by the management of Tornier to result from the Merger;

(v)

(vi)

reviewed the potential pro forma financial impact of the Merger on the future financial performance of Tornier, including the potential effect on Tornier’s estimated earnings per share;

Tornier N.V.

Page 2

(vii)

reviewed the trading histories for Wright Common Stock and Tornier Common Stock and a comparison of such trading histories with each other and with the trading histories of other companies we deemed relevant;

(viii)

compared certain financial and stock market information of Wright and Tornier with similar information of other companies we deemed relevant;

(ix)

compared certain financial terms of the Merger to financial terms, to the extent publicly available, of other transactions we deemed relevant;

(x)

reviewed the relative financial contributions of Wright and Tornier to the future financial performance of the combined company on a pro forma basis;

(xi)

reviewed a draft, dated October 25, 2014 of the Agreement (the “Draft Agreement”); and

(xii)

performed such other analyses and studies and considered such other information and factors as we deemed appropriate.

In arriving at our opinion, we have assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information and data publicly available or provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with us and have relied upon the assurances of the managements of Tornier and Wright that they are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information or data inaccurate or misleading in any material respect. With respect to the Tornier Forecasts and the Synergies, we have been advised by Tornier, and have assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of Tornier as to the future financial performance of Tornier and the other matters covered thereby. With respect to the Wright Forecasts, we have been advised by Wright, and have assumed, with the consent of Tornier, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of Wright as to the future financial performance of Wright and the other matters covered thereby. With respect to the Adjusted Wright Forecasts, we have assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that the management of Tornier’s review of and adjustments to the Wright Forecasts were reasonably performed and that the Adjusted Wright Forecasts reflect the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of Tornier as to the future financial performance of Wright and the other matters covered thereby and we have relied, at the direction of Tornier, on the Adjusted Wright Forecasts for purposes of our analysis and opinion. We have relied, at the direction of Tornier, on the assessments of the management of Tornier as to Tornier’s ability to achieve the Synergies and have been advised by Tornier, and have assumed, with the consent of Tornier, that the Synergies will be realized in the amounts and at the times projected. We have not made or been provided with any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of Tornier, Wright or any other entity, nor have we made any physical inspection of the properties or assets of Tornier, Wright or any other entity and we have assumed, with the consent of Tornier, that there are no material undisclosed liabilities of or relating to Tornier, Wright or any other entity for which appropriate reserves or other provisions have not been made. We have not evaluated the solvency or fair value of Tornier, Wright or any other entity under any state, federal or other laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. We have assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that the Merger will be consummated in accordance with its terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory and other approvals, consents, releases and waivers for the Merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition, including any divestiture requirements or amendments or modifications, will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Tornier, Wright or any other entity or the Merger (including the contemplated benefits of the Merger). You have advised us and for purposes of our analyses and our opinion we have assumed, at your direction, that the Merger will qualify for federal income tax purposes as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as

E-2

amended. We also have assumed, at the direction of Tornier, that the final executed Agreement will not differ in any material respect from the Draft Agreement reviewed by us.

We express no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects or implications of the Merger (other than the Exchange Ratio to the extent expressly specified herein), including, without limitation, the form or structure of the Merger or any terms, aspects or implications of any voting and support agreement or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection with or related to the Merger or otherwise. Our opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to Tornier of the Exchange Ratio provided for in the Merger and no opinion or view is expressed with respect to any consideration received in connection with the Merger by the holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of any party. In addition, no opinion or view is expressed with respect to the fairness (financial or otherwise) of the amount, nature or any other aspect of any compensation to any of the officers, directors or employees of any party to the Merger, or class of such persons, relative to the Exchange Ratio or otherwise. Furthermore, no opinion or view is expressed as to the relative merits of the Merger in comparison to other strategies or transactions that might be available to Tornier or in which Tornier might engage or as to the underlying business decision of Tornier to proceed with or effect the Merger. In addition, we are not expressing any view or opinion with respect to, and have relied, at the direction of Tornier, upon the assessments of representatives of Tornier regarding, legal, regulatory, accounting, tax and similar matters relating to Tornier, Wright or any other entity and the Merger (including the contemplated benefits of the Merger) as to which we understand that Tornier obtained such advice as it deemed necessary from qualified professionals. We are also not expressing any opinion as to what the value of Tornier Common Stock actually will be when issued or the prices at which Tornier Common Stock or Wright Common Stock will trade at any time, including following the announcement or the consummation of the Merger. In addition, we express no opinion or recommendation as to how any shareholder should vote or act in connection with the Merger or any related matter.

We have acted as financial advisor to Tornier in connection with the Merger and will receive a fee for our services, a portion of which is payable upon the delivery of this opinion and a significant portion of which is contingent upon consummation of the Merger. In addition, Tornier has agreed to reimburse our expenses and indemnify us against certain liabilities arising out of our engagement.

We and our affiliates comprise a full service securities firm and commercial bank engaged in securities, commodities and derivatives trading, foreign exchange and other brokerage activities, and principal investing as well as providing investment, corporate and private banking, asset and investment management, financing and financial advisory services and other commercial services and products to a wide range of companies, governments and individuals. In the ordinary course of our businesses, we and our affiliates may invest on a principal basis or on behalf of customers or manage funds that invest, make or hold long or short positions, finance positions or trade or otherwise effect transactions in equity, debt or other securities or financial instruments (including derivatives, bank loans or other obligations) of Wright, certain of its affiliates, Tornier and certain of its affiliates (including Warburg Pincus LLC (“Warburg”) and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies).

We and our affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as financial advisor to certain of Tornier’s affiliates, including Warburg and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, in connection with certain mergers and acquisition transactions, (ii) having acted or acting as a bookrunner and/or underwriter for various debt and equity offerings of Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, (iii) having acted or acting as an administrative agent, bookrunner and arranger for, and/or as a lender under, certain term loans, letters of credit, credit and leasing

facilities and other credit arrangements of Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies (including acquisition financing), (iv) having provided or providing certain derivatives, foreign exchange and other trading services to certain of Tornier’s affiliates, including Warburg and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, (v) having provided or providing certain managed institutional investments services and products to Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and (vi) having provided or providing certain treasury management products and services to Tornier and certain of its affiliates, including Warburg and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies. In addition, an employee of ours is a non-voting advisory board observer with respect to the advisory boards of certain affiliates of Warburg.

In addition, we and our affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Wright and certain of its affiliates and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as administrative agent, bookrunner and arranger for, and/or as a lender under, certain letters of credit and credit and leasing facilities of Wright and certain of its affiliates, (ii) having provided or providing certain derivatives, foreign exchange and other trading services to Wright and certain of its affiliates, (iii) having provided or providing certain managed institutional investments services and products to Wright and certain of its affiliates, and (iv) having provided or providing certain treasury management products and services to Wright and certain of its affiliates.

We further note that, concurrent with Wright’s issuance in August 2012 of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% cash convertible senior notes due 2017 (the “Convertible Notes”), Wright entered into separate convertible note hedge transactions and issuer warrant transactions (collectively, the “Call Spread Transactions”) with three banks, including our affiliate, Bank of America, N.A. (“BANA”), acting as principal for its own account in respect of forty percent (40%) of the Call Spread Transactions. The Call Spread Transactions consisted of the purchase by Wright from those three banks of call options in respect of the number of shares of Wright Common Stock initially underlying the Convertible Notes and the sale by Wright to those three banks of warrants in respect of the same number of shares of Wright Common Stock, in each case subject to certain adjustments. In accordance with the terms of the Call Spread Transactions, if the Merger is consummated, the issuer warrant transactions will terminate with a cash payment, or share settlement in shares of Tornier Common Stock if certain conditions are met, made by Wright to each bank. The consummation of the Merger will also give each bank the right to terminate its convertible note hedge transactions, which, if terminated, would result in a cash payment, or share settlement in shares of Tornier Common Stock if certain conditions are met, by the applicable bank to Wright. Absent mutual agreement between the relevant bank and Wright, the amount of the relevant cash payment in each case will be determined by the relevant bank, as the calculation agent, in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

It is understood that this letter is for the benefit and use of the Board of Directors of Tornier (in its capacity as such) in connection with and for purposes of its evaluation of the Merger and is not rendered to or for the benefit of, and shall not confer rights or remedies upon, any person other than the Board of Directors of Tornier.

Our opinion is necessarily based on financial, economic, monetary, market and other conditions and circumstances as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect this opinion, and we do not have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm this opinion. The issuance of this opinion was approved by our Americas Fairness Opinion Review Committee.

Shares covered by an Award shall be counted as used only to the extent they are actually issued; provided , however , that the full number of Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right that is settled by the issuance of Shares shall be counted against the Shares authorized for issuance under this Plan, regardless of the number of Shares actually issued upon settlement of such Stock Appreciation Right. Furthermore, any Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations in respect of Awards issued under this Plan, any Shares withheld to pay the exercise price of Awards issued under this Plan and any Shares not issued or delivered as a result of the “net exercise” of an outstanding Option pursuant to Section 6.4 shall be counted against the Shares authorized for issuance under this Plan. Any Shares repurchased by the Company on the open market using the proceeds from the exercise of an Award shall not increase the number of shares available for future grant of Awards.

The determination of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be final, conclusive, and binding on Participants under this Plan.

3.8. Limitation on Non-Employee Director Awards . Notwithstanding any other provision of the plan, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock subject to Awards to any one Non-Employee Director in any one calendar year may not exceed 100,000; provided, that such limit shall not apply to any election of a Non-Employee Director to receive shares of Stock in lieu of all or a portion of any annual Board, chair and other retainers and any meeting fees otherwise payable in cash.

COMMITTEE

4.1. Plan Administration . This Plan shall be administered by the Committee; provided, however , that the Board may, in its sole discretion, take any action delegated to the Committee under this Plan as it may deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, to the extent required by the laws of The Netherlands, Awards granted pursuant to this Plan (to the extent they constitute Options or other rights to acquire shares of Stock or Stock Grants) shall be deemed to have been granted subject to the approval of such Award (including its terms and conditions as established by the Committee) by the Board (if and to the extent the Company’s general meeting of shareholders has delegated such authority to the Board) or by the Company’s general meeting of shareholders itself (if and to the extent the Company’s general meeting of shareholders has not delegated such authority to the Board), and no Awards shall be effective until such approval, as applicable, is received. The Committee acting in its sole discretion shall exercise such powers and take such action as expressly called for under this Plan and, further, the Committee shall have the power to interpret this Plan and (subject to Section 12 and Section 17 herein and Rule 16b-3) to take such other action in the administration and operation of this Plan as the Committee deems equitable under the circumstances, which action shall be binding on the Company, on each affected Participant, and on each other person directly or indirectly affected by such action. The Committee shall not be obligated to treat Participants or Eligible Recipients uniformly, and determinations made under this Plan may be made by the Committee selectively among Participants or Eligible Recipients, whether or not such Participants and Eligible Recipients are similarly situated. Furthermore, the Committee as a condition to making any grant under this Plan to any Eligible Recipient shall have the right to require him or her to execute an agreement which makes the Eligible Recipient subject to non-competition provisions and other restrictive covenants which run in favor of the Company.

4.2. Administration of Certain Awards . This Section 4.2 applies to any Award intended to qualify as exempt performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), as determined by the Committee. In the case of any Award to which this Section 4.2 applies (other than, with respect to clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv), Options and Stock Appreciation Rights), (i) the Plan and such Award will be construed and administered to the maximum extent permitted by law in a manner consistent with qualifying the Award for such exemption, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan; (ii) the Committee will pre-establish, in writing and no later than 90 days after the commencement of the period of service to which the performance relates (or at such earlier time as is consistent with qualifying the Award for such exemption), one or more Performance Goals applicable to such Award, the amount or amounts that will be payable or earned (subject to reduction as describe below) if the Performance Goals are achieved, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee deems appropriate with respect to the Award; (iii) at the close of the applicable Performance Period the Committee will certify whether the applicable Performance Goals have been attained; and (iv) no amount will be paid under such Award unless the Performance Goal applicable to the payment of such amount have been so certified, except as provided by the

G-8

Committee consistent with such exemption; and (v) the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion (either in individual cases or in ways that affect more than one Participant), reduce the actual payment, if any, to be made under such Award to the extent consistent with such exemption.

4.3. Participants Based Outside of the United States . In addition to the authority of the Committee under Section 4.1 and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend the terms of the Plan or Awards with respect to Participants resident outside of the United States or employed by a non-U.S. Affiliate in order to comply with local legal requirements, to otherwise protect the Company’s or Affiliate’s interests, or to meet objectives of the Plan, and may, where appropriate, establish one or more subplans (including the adoption of any required rules and regulations) for the purposes of qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws. The Committee shall have no authority, however, to take action pursuant to this Section 4.2: (i) to reserve shares or grant Awards in excess of the limitations provided in this Plan, (ii) to grant an Option or Stock Appreciation Right having an exercise price less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date in violation of this Plan, or (iii) for which shareholder approval would then be required pursuant to Section 17.2.

ELIGIBILITY

Only Employees shall be eligible for the grant of ISOs under this Plan. All Eligible Recipients shall be eligible for the grant of Non-ISOs, Stock Appreciation Rights, Cash-Based Awards, Other Stock-Based Awards, and for Stock Grants and Stock Unit Grants under this Plan.

OPTIONS

6.1. Grant; Award Agreement . The Committee acting in its sole discretion shall have the right to grant Options to Eligible Recipients under this Plan to purchase shares of Stock subject to such terms and conditions, consistent with the other provisions of this Plan, as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Each grant of an Option to an Eligible Recipient shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, and each Award Agreement shall set forth whether the Option is an ISO or a Non-ISO and shall set forth such other terms and conditions of such grant as the Committee acting in its sole discretion deems consistent with the terms of this Plan ; provided, however , that if the Committee grants an ISO and a Non-ISO to an Employee on the same date, the right of the Employee to exercise the ISO shall not be conditioned on his or her failure to exercise the Non-ISO. To the extent that any ISO (or portion thereof) granted under this Plan ceases for any reason to qualify as an “incentive stock option” for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, such ISO (or portion thereof) shall continue to be outstanding for purposes of this Plan but shall thereafter be deemed to be a Non-ISO.

6.2. $100,000 Limit . To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of Stock for which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its Affiliates) exceeds $100,000, such excess ISOs shall be treated as Non-ISOs.

6.3. Exercise Price . The per share price to be paid by a Participant upon exercise of an Option granted pursuant to this Section 6 shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion at the time of grant; provided, however , that other than with respect to any substitute Award described in Section 3.1, such price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date and; provided, further , that if the Option is an ISO granted to an Employee who is a Ten Percent Shareholder, the per share price for each share of Stock subject to such ISO shall be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date such ISO is granted.

6.4. Payment .

(a) The exercise price of an Option shall be payable in full upon the exercise of such Option in cash (including check, bank draft, or money order); provided, however , that the Committee, in its sole discretion, may allow such payments to be made, in whole or in part, by (i) by a “net exercise” of the Option (as further described in paragraph (b), below), (ii) through cashless exercise procedure which is effected by an unrelated broker through a sale of Stock in the open market, (iii) by a combination of such methods; or (iv) any other method approved or accepted by the Committee in its sole discretion.

G-9

(b) In the case of a “net exercise” of an Option, a Participant shall receive the number of shares of Stock underlying the Options so exercised reduced by the number of shares of Stock equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Options divided by the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise (the “ Reduced Shares ”). In the event of a “net exercise” of an Option, Options to purchase the Reduced Shares shall be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive an amount (the “ Redemption Amount ”) equal to the Fair Market Value of the Reduced Shares on the date of exercise. The Redemption Amount shall automatically be applied by the Company to satisfy the amount the Participant is required to pay to exercise the Options. Thereafter, the Participant shall receive the number of shares of Stock remaining after such Reduced Shares have been cancelled. Shares of Stock shall no longer be outstanding under an Option (and shall therefore not thereafter be exercisable) following the exercise of such Option to the extent of (i) shares cancelled to pay the exercise price of an Option under the “net exercise,” (ii) shares actually delivered to the Participant as a result of such exercise and (iii) any shares withheld for purposes of tax withholding.

6.5. Exercisability and Duration . An Option shall become exercisable at such times and in such installments and upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion at the time of grant and as set forth in the related Award Agreement, including (i) the achievement of one or more Performance Goals, or that (ii) the Participant remain in continuous employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate for a certain period; provided, however , that no Option shall be exercisable after ten (10) years from the Grant Date (five (5) years from the Grant Date in the case of an ISO that is granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder on the date the Option is granted).

6.6. Manner of Exercise . An Option may be exercised by a Participant in whole or in part from time to time, subject to the conditions contained in this Plan and in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option, by delivery in person, by facsimile or electronic transmission, or through the mail of written notice of exercise to the Company at its principal executive office (or to the Company’s designee as may be established from time to time by the Company and communicated to Participants) and by paying in full the total exercise price for the shares of Stock to be purchased in accordance with Section 6.4 of this Plan.

6.7. Disqualifying Disposition . Each Participant who receives an ISO shall notify the Company in writing immediately after the Participant makes a Disqualifying Disposition of any Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO.

7.2. Exercise Price . The exercise price of a Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant; provided, however , that other than with respect to any substitute Award described in Section 3.1, such price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date.

A Stock Appreciation Right shall become exercisable at such times and in such installments as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion at the time of grant and as set forth in the related Award Agreement, including (i) the achievement of one or more Performance Goals, or that (ii) the Participant remain in continuous employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate for a certain period; provided, however , that no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable after ten (10) years from its Grant Date.

G-10

7.4. Manner of Exercise . A Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercised by giving notice in the same manner as for Options, as set forth in Section 6.6, subject to any other terms and conditions consistent with the other provisions of this Plan as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

7.5. Settlement . Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:

(a) The excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise over the per share exercise price; by

(b) The number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.

7.6. Form of Payment .

The Committee acting in its sole discretion may make the issuance of Stock under a Stock Grant subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions which the Committee deems appropriate under the circumstances for Participants generally or for a Participant in particular, and the related Award Agreement shall set forth each such condition and the deadline for satisfying each such condition. Stock subject to a Stock Grant shall be issued in the name of a Participant only after each such condition, if any, has been timely satisfied. In addition to any restrictions set forth in a Participant’s Award Agreement, until such time that the Stock underlying a Stock Grant has vested pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber such Stock. The Committee shall take into account compliance with local laws relating to payment for shares of Stock in connection with any Stock Grant made under the Plan, to the extent applicable.

(b) Conditions on Forfeiture of Stock or Cash Payment . The Committee acting in its sole discretion may make any cash payment due under a Stock Unit Grant or Stock issued in the name of a Participant under a Stock Grant non-forfeitable subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions, including the achievement of one or more Performance Goals, that the Committee acting in its sole discretion deems appropriate under the circumstances for Participants generally or for a Participant in particular, and the related Award Agreement shall set forth each such condition, if any, and the deadline, if any, for satisfying each such condition. A Participant’s non-forfeitable interest in the shares of Stock underlying a Stock Grant or the cash payable under a Stock Unit Grant shall depend on the extent to which he or she timely satisfies each such condition.

8.3. Satisfaction of Forfeiture Conditions . A share of Stock shall cease to be subject to a Stock Grant at such time as a Participant’s interest in such Stock becomes non-forfeitable under this Plan, and the certificate or other evidence of ownership representing such share shall be transferred to the Participant as soon as practicable thereafter.

10.

DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS

Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted dividend equivalents based on the dividends declared on shares of Stock that are subject to any Award, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the Award is granted and the date the Award is exercised, vests, or expires, as determined by the Committee. Such dividend equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional shares of Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Committee shall not grant dividend equivalents based on the dividends declared on shares of Stock that are subject to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right. Dividend equivalents shall be accrued for the account of the Participant and shall be paid to the Participant on the date on which the corresponding Awards are exercised, settled, paid, or become free of restrictions, as applicable. Dividend equivalents shall be subject to forfeiture to the same extent that the corresponding Awards are subject to forfeiture as provided in this Plan or any Award Agreement.

EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER SERVICE

11.1. Termination Due to Death or Disability . Unless otherwise expressly provided by the Committee in its sole discretion in an Award Agreement, and subject to Sections 11.3 and 11.5, in the event a Participant’s employment or other service with the Company and all Affiliates is terminated by reason of death or Disability:

(a) All outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights held by the Participant as of the effective date of such termination shall, to the extent exercisable as of such termination, remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year after such termination (but in no event after the expiration date of any such Option or Stock Appreciation Right) and Options and Stock Appreciation Rights not exercisable as of such termination shall be terminated and forfeited;

(b) All outstanding Stock Grants and Stock Unit Grants held by the Participant as of the effective date of such termination that have not vested as of the date of such termination, and all outstanding but unpaid Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards held by the Participant as of the effective date of such termination, shall be terminated and forfeited; provided, however , that with respect to any such Awards the vesting of which is based on the achievement of Performance Goals, if a Participant’s employment or other service with the Company or any Affiliate, as the case may be, is terminated by reason of death or Disability prior to the end of the Performance Period of such Award, but after the conclusion of a portion of the Performance Period (but in no event less than one (1) year), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, cause shares of Stock to be delivered or payment made with respect to the Participant’s Award, but only if otherwise earned for the entire Performance Period and only with respect to the portion of the applicable Performance Period completed at the date of such event, with proration based on full fiscal years only and no shares to be delivered for partial fiscal years. The Committee shall consider the provisions of Section 11.5 and shall have the discretion to consider any other fact or circumstance in making its decision as to whether to deliver such shares of Stock or other payment, including whether the Participant again becomes employed. If the effective date of such termination is on or after the end of the Performance Period applicable to an Award which vests based on the achievement of Performance Goals, then any such Award held by a Participant shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with the payment terms of such Award.

11.2. Termination for Reasons Other than Death, Disability, or Actions Constituting Cause or Adverse Action . Unless otherwise expressly provided by the Committee in its sole discretion in an Award Agreement, and subject to Sections 11.3 and 11.5 of this Plan, in the event a Participant’s employment or other service with the Company and all Affiliates is terminated for any reason other than (i) death, (ii) Disability, or (iii) due to actions constituting Cause or Adverse Action:

(a) All outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights held by the Participant as of the effective date of such termination shall, to the extent exercisable as of such termination, remain exercisable for a period of three (3) months after such termination (but in no event after the expiration date of any such Option or Stock Appreciation Right) and Options and Stock Appreciation Rights not exercisable as of such termination shall be terminated and forfeited.

(b) All Stock Grants and Stock Unit Grants held by the Participant as of the effective date of such termination that have not vested as of such termination, and all outstanding unpaid Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards held by the Participant as of the effective date of such termination, shall be terminated and forfeited; provided, however , that with respect to any such Awards the vesting of which is based on the achievement of Performance Goals, if the effective date of such termination is on or after the end of the Performance Period applicable to an Award which vests based on the achievement of Performance Goals, then any such Award held by a Participant shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with the payment terms of such Award.

11.3. Modification of Rights upon Termination . Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 11, upon a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company or any Affiliate, as the case may be, the Committee may, in its sole discretion (which may be exercised at any time on or after the Grant Date, including following such termination) cause Options or Stock Appreciation Rights (or any part thereof)

G-13

held by such Participant as of the effective date of such termination to terminate, become or continue to become exercisable or remain exercisable following such termination of employment or service, and Stock Grants, Stock Unit Grants, Cash-Based Awards, and Other Stock-Based Awards held by such Participant as of the effective date of such termination to terminate, vest, or become free of restrictions and conditions to payment, as the case may be, following such termination of employment or service, in each case in the manner determined by the Committee; provided, however, that (i) no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may remain exercisable beyond its expiration date, and (ii) any such action by the Committee adversely affecting any outstanding Award shall not be effective without the consent of the affected Participant (subject to the right of the Committee to take whatever action it deems appropriate under Section 3.6, 11.5, 12, or 17).

11.4. Determination of Termination of Employment or Other Service . Unless the Committee otherwise determines in its sole discretion, a Participant’s employment or other service shall, for purposes of this Plan, be deemed to have terminated on the date recorded on the personnel or other records of the Company or the Affiliate for which the Participant provides employment or other service, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion based upon such records. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if payment of an Award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code is triggered by a termination of a Participant’s employment or other service, such termination shall also constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and any change in employment status that constitutes a “separation from service” under Section 409A of the Code shall be treated as a termination of employment or service, as the case may be.

11.5. Additional Forfeiture Events .

(a) Effect of Actions Constituting Cause or Adverse Action . Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary and in addition to the other rights of the Committee under this Section 11.5, if a Participant is determined by the Committee, acting in its sole discretion, to have taken any action that would constitute Cause or an Adverse Action during or within one (1) year after the termination of employment or other service with the Company or an Affiliate, irrespective of whether such action or the Committee’s determination occurs before or after termination of such Participant’s employment or other service with the Company or any Affiliate and irrespective of whether or not the Participant was terminated as a result of such Cause or Adverse Action, (i) all rights of the Participant under this Plan and any Award Agreements evidencing an Award then held by the Participant shall terminate and be forfeited without notice of any kind, and (ii) the Committee in its sole discretion shall have the authority to rescind the exercise, vesting or issuance of, or payment in respect of, any Awards of the Participant that were exercised, vested or issued, or as to which such payment was made, during such period and to require the Participant to pay to the Company, within ten (10) days of receipt from the Company of notice of such rescission, any amount received or the amount of any gain realized as a result of such rescinded exercise, vesting, issuance or payment (including any dividend equivalents paid or other distributions made with respect to any shares subject to any Award). The Company shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from future wages of the Participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to the Participant from the Company or an Affiliate) or make other arrangements for the collection of all amounts necessary to satisfy such payment obligations. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an applicable Award Agreement, this Section 11.5(a) shall not apply to any Participant following a Change in Control.

(b) Forfeiture of Awards under Sarbanes-Oxley Act . If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of misconduct, with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, then any Participant who is one of the individuals subject to automatic forfeiture under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 shall reimburse the Company with respect to any Award received by such individual under this Plan during the twelve (12) month period following the first public issuance or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, of the financial document embodying such financial reporting requirement.

12.

CHANGE IN CONTROL

12.1. Acceleration of Vesting . Without limiting the authority of the Committee under Sections 3.6 and 4.1 of this Plan, if a Change in Control of the Company occurs, then, unless otherwise provided by the Committee in its sole discretion either in the Award Agreement evidencing an Award at the time of grant or at any time after

G-14

the grant of an Award, (i) all outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall become immediately exercisable in full and shall remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms, regardless of whether the Participant to whom such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights have been granted remains in employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate, (ii) all restrictions and vesting requirements applicable to any Award based solely on the continued service of the Participant shall terminate, and (iii) all Awards the vesting or payment of which are based on Performance Goals shall vest as though such Performance Goals were fully achieved at target and shall become immediately payable; provided, however , that no Award that provides for a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be accelerated upon the occurrence of a Change in Control unless the event or circumstances constituting the Change in Control also constitute a “change in the ownership” of the Company, a “change in the effective control” of the Company or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company, in each case as determined under Section 409A of the Code. The treatment of any other Awards in the event of a Change in Control shall be as determined by the Committee in connection with the grant thereof, as reflected in the applicable Award Agreement.

12.2. Alternative Treatment of Stock-Based Awards . In connection with a Change in Control, the Committee in its sole discretion, either in an Award Agreement at the time of grant of a Stock-Based Award or at any time after the grant of such an Award, may determine that any or all outstanding Stock-Based Awards granted under this Plan, whether or not exercisable or vested, as the case may be, shall be canceled and terminated and that in connection with such cancellation and termination the holder of such Stock-Based Award shall receive for each share of Stock subject to such Award a cash payment (or the delivery of shares, other securities or a combination of cash, shares and securities with a fair market value (as determined by the Committee in good faith) equivalent to such cash payment) equal to the difference, if any, between the consideration received by shareholders of the Company in respect of a share of Stock in connection with such Change in Control and the purchase price per share, if any, under the Award, multiplied by the number of shares of Stock subject to such Award (or in which such Award is denominated); provided, however , that if such product is zero ($0) or less or to the extent that the Award is not then exercisable, the Award may be canceled and terminated without payment therefor. If any portion of the consideration pursuant to a Change in Control may be received by holders of shares of Stock on a contingent or delayed basis, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine the fair market value per share of such consideration as of the time of the Change in Control on the basis of the Committee’s good faith estimate of the present value of the probable future payment of such consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any shares of Stock issued pursuant to a Stock-Based Award that immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Change in Control are subject to no further restrictions pursuant to this Plan or an Award Agreement (other than pursuant to the securities laws) shall be deemed to be outstanding shares of Stock and receive the same consideration as other outstanding shares of Stock in connection with the Change in Control.

12.3. Limitation on Change in Control Payments . Notwithstanding anything in Section 12.1 or 12.2 to the contrary, if, with respect to a Participant, the acceleration of the vesting of an Award as provided in Section 12.1 or the payment of cash in exchange for all or part of a Stock-Based Award as provided in Section 12.2 (which acceleration or payment could be deemed a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), together with any other “payments” that such Participant has the right to receive from the Company or any corporation that is a member of an “affiliated group” (as defined in Section 1504(a) of the Code without regard to Section 1504(b) of the Code) of which the Company is a member, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), then the “payments” to such Participant pursuant to Section 12.1 or 12.2 shall be reduced (or acceleration of vesting eliminated) to the largest amount as shall result in no portion of such “payments” being subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code; provided, however , that such reduction shall be made only if the aggregate amount of the payments after such reduction exceeds the difference between (i) the amount of such payments absent such reduction, minus (ii) the aggregate amount of the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code attributable to any such excess parachute payments, and provided further that such payments shall be reduced (or acceleration of vesting eliminated) in the following order: (a) Options with an exercise price above fair market value that have a positive value for purposes of

G-15

Section 280G of the Code, (b) pro rata among Awards that constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, and (c) finally, among the Awards that are not subject to Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if a Participant is subject to a separate agreement with the Company or an Affiliate that expressly addresses the potential application of Section 280G or 4999 of the Code, then this Section 12.3 shall not apply and any “payments” to a Participant pursuant to Section 12.1 or 12.2 shall be treated as “payments” arising under such separate agreement.

13.

PAYMENT OF WITHHOLDING TAXES

13.1. General Rules . The Company is entitled to (i) withhold and deduct from future wages of the Participant (or from other amounts that may be due and owing to the Participant from the Company or an Affiliate), or make other arrangements for the collection of, all amounts the Company reasonably determines are required to satisfy any and all federal, foreign, state, and local withholding and employment related tax requirements attributable to an Award, including the grant, exercise, vesting or settlement of, or payment of dividend equivalents with respect to, an Award or a disqualifying disposition of shares received upon exercise of an ISO, or (ii) require the Participant promptly to remit the amount of such withholding to the Company before taking any action, including issuing any shares of Stock, with respect to an Award. When withholding for taxes is effected under this Plan, it shall be withheld only up to the minimum required tax withholding rates or such other rate that will not trigger a negative accounting impact on the Company.

13.2. Special Rules . The Committee may, in its sole discretion and upon terms and conditions established by the Committee, permit or require a Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, any withholding or employment related tax obligation described in Section 13.1 by withholding shares of Stock underlying an Award, electing to tender, or by attestation as to ownership of, other shares of Stock held by a Participant, by delivery of a Broker Exercise Notice, or a combination of such methods. For purposes of satisfying a Participant’s withholding or employment-related tax obligation, shares of Stock withheld by the Company or tendered or covered by an attestation shall be valued at their Fair Market Value.

14.

NON-TRANSFERABILITY

14.1. General Rule . Except as provided in Section 14.2, no Award shall be transferable by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable during a Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. The person or persons to whom an Award is transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to Section 14.2, thereafter shall be treated as the Participant.

14.2. Transfers to Family Members . A Non-ISO may be transferred by a Participant to a “family member” (as defined in Rule 701(c)(3) of the 1933 Act) of such Participant or to a trust exclusively for the benefit of one or more of such family members of such Participant; provided, however , that such transfer is made as a gift without consideration, and such transfer complies with applicable securities laws.

15.

SECURITIES REGISTRATION

As a condition to the receipt of shares of Stock under this Plan, a Participant shall, if so requested by the Company, agree to hold such shares of Stock for investment and not with a view of resale or distribution to the public and, if so requested by the Company, shall deliver to the Company a written statement satisfactory to the Company to that effect. Furthermore, if so requested by the Company, a Participant shall make a written representation to the Company that he or she shall not sell or offer for sale any of such Stock unless a registration statement shall be in effect with respect to such Stock under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities law or he or she shall have furnished to the Company an opinion in form and substance satisfactory to the Company of legal counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required. Certificates or other evidence of ownership representing the Stock transferred upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or

G-16

upon the lapse of the forfeiture conditions, if any, on any Stock Grant may at the discretion of the Company bear a legend to the effect that such Stock has not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities law and that such Stock cannot be sold or offered for sale in the absence of an effective registration statement as to such Stock under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities law or an opinion in form and substance satisfactory to the Company of legal counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required.

16.

LIFE OF PLAN

Subject to earlier termination as provided in Section 17 below, this Plan shall terminate at midnight on August 25, 2020. No Award shall be granted after termination of this Plan, but Awards outstanding upon termination of this Plan shall remain outstanding in accordance with their applicable terms and conditions and the terms and conditions of this Plan.

17.

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, OR TERMINATION

17.1. Generally . Subject to other subsections of this Section 17 and Section 17.3, the Board at any time may suspend or terminate this Plan (or any portion thereof) or terminate any outstanding Award Agreement and the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may amend this Plan or amend or modify the terms of an outstanding Award. The Committee’s power and authority to amend or modify the terms of an outstanding Award includes the authority to modify the number of shares of Stock or other terms and conditions of an Award, extend the term of an Award, accelerate the exercisability or vesting or otherwise terminate any restrictions relating to an Award, accept the surrender of any outstanding Award or, to the extent not previously exercised or vested, authorize the grant of new Awards in substitution for surrendered Awards; provided, however , that the amended or modified terms are permitted by this Plan as then in effect and that any Participant adversely affected by such amended or modified terms has consented to such amendment or modification.

17.2. Shareholder Approval . No amendments to this Plan shall be effective in respect of any jurisdiction without approval of the Company’s shareholders if shareholder approval of the amendment is then required pursuant to Section 422 of the Code, the rules of the primary stock exchange or stock market on which the Stock is then traded, applicable United States state corporate laws or regulations, applicable United States federal laws or regulations, or the applicable laws of any foreign country or jurisdiction where Awards are, or shall be, granted under this Plan.

17.3. Awards Previously Granted . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, no termination, suspension, or amendment of this Plan may adversely affect any outstanding Award without the consent of the affected Participant; provided, however , that this sentence shall not impair the right of the Committee to take whatever action it deems appropriate under Sections 3.6, 11.5, 12 or 17.4 of this Plan.

17.4. Amendments to Conform to Law . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Committee may amend this Plan or an Award Agreement, to take effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of conforming this Plan or an Award Agreement to any present or future law relating to plans of this or similar nature, including Section 422 and 409A of the Code and Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, and to the administrative regulations and rulings promulgated thereunder. By accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant agrees to any amendment made pursuant to this Section 17.4 to any Award granted under this Plan without further consideration or action.

18.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION

It is intended that all Awards issued under this Plan be in a form and administered in a manner that shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, or the requirements of an exception to Section 409A of the Code, and the Award Agreements and this Plan shall be construed and administered in a manner that is consistent with and gives effect to such intent. The Committee is authorized to adopt rules or regulations deemed

G-17

necessary or appropriate to qualify for an exception from or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 18 to the contrary, with respect to any Award subject to Section 409A of the Code, no amendment to or payment under such Award shall be made except and only to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code. Neither the Committee nor the Company shall be liable to anyone for any federal, state, local, or foreign taxes, interest, or penalties incurred by anyone in connection with the participation in or receipt of benefits under the Plan, including, but not limited to, any taxes, interest, or penalties incurred on account of the failure of the Plan or the operation of the Plan to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A.

19.

MISCELLANEOUS

19.1. Shareholder Rights . Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or in an Award Agreement, no person shall be entitled to the rights and privileges of share ownership in respect of shares of Stock that are subject to Awards hereunder until such shares have been issued to that person. Specifically, no Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder of the Company as a result of the grant of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right pending the actual delivery of the Stock subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right to such Participant. A Participant’s rights as a shareholder in the shares of Stock that remain subject to forfeiture under Section 8.2(b) shall be set forth in the related Award Agreement.

19.2. No Contract of Employment . No individual shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan or, having been selected for the grant of an Award, to be selected for a grant of any other Award. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any individual any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company. The grant of an Award to a Participant under this Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment or a right to continue to serve on the Board and shall not confer on a Participant any rights upon his or her termination of employment or service in addition to those rights, if any, expressly set forth in this Plan or the related Award Agreement.

19.3. Construction . All references to Sections are to Sections of this Plan unless otherwise indicated. Each term set forth in Section 2 shall, unless otherwise stated, have the meaning set forth opposite such term for purposes of this Plan and, for purposes of such definitions, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. In this Plan, except where otherwise indicated by clear contrary intention, “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding such term, and “or” is used in the inclusive sense of “and/or”. Wherever possible, each provision of this Plan and any Award Agreement shall be interpreted so that it is valid under the applicable law. If any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement is to any extent invalid under the applicable law that provision shall still be effective to the extent it remains valid. The remainder of this Plan and the Award Agreement also shall continue to be valid, and the entire Plan and Award Agreement shall continue to be valid in other jurisdictions. If there is any conflict between the terms of this Plan and the terms of any Award Agreement, the terms of this Plan shall control.

19.4. Other Conditions . Each Award Agreement may require that a Participant (as a condition to the exercise of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right or the issuance of Stock or cash subject to any other Award) enter into any agreement or make such representations prepared by the Company, including any agreement which restricts the transfer of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right or a Stock Grant or other Award or provides for the repurchase of such Stock by the Company.

19.5. Rule 16b-3 . The Committee shall have the right to amend any Award to withhold or otherwise restrict the transfer of any Stock or cash under this Plan to a Participant as the Committee deems appropriate in order to satisfy any condition or requirement under Rule 16b-3 to the extent Section 16 of the 1934 Act might be applicable to such grant or transfer.

G-18

19.6. Coordination with Employment Agreements and Other Agreements . If the Company enters into an employment agreement or other agreement with a Participant which expressly provides for the acceleration in vesting of an outstanding Award or for the extension of the deadline to exercise any rights under an outstanding Award, any such acceleration or extension shall be deemed effected pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of such outstanding Award and this Plan even if such employment agreement or other agreement is first effective after the date the outstanding Award was granted; provided, however , no extension of the deadline to exercise any rights under an outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be permitted to the extent such extension would cause the Option or Stock Appreciation Right to become subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

19.7. Fractional Shares . No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered under this Plan or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional shares of Stock or whether such fractional shares of Stock or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated by rounding up or down.

19.8. Unfunded Plan . Participants shall have no right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company or its Affiliates may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under this Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant, beneficiary, legal representative, or any other individual. To the extent that any individual acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be. All payments to be made hereunder shall be paid from the general funds of the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, and no special or separate fund shall be established and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such amounts except as expressly set forth in this Plan.

19.9. Relationship to Other Benefits . No payment under this Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare, or benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate unless provided otherwise in such plan.

19.10. Governing Law . Except to the extent expressly provided herein or in connection with other matters of corporate governance and authority (all of which shall be governed by the laws of the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation), the validity, construction, interpretation, administration and effect of this Plan and any rules, regulations, and actions relating to this Plan shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, notwithstanding the conflicts of laws principles of any jurisdictions. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, recipients of an Award under this Plan are deemed to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal or state courts of the State of Delaware to resolve any and all issues that may arise out of or relate to this Plan or any related Award Agreement.

19.11. Successors . All obligations of the Company under this Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company.

19.12. Delivery and Execution of Electronic Documents . To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may: (i) deliver by email or other electronic means (including posting on a Web site maintained by the Company or by a third party under contract with the Company) all documents relating to this Plan or any Award hereunder (including prospectuses required by the Securities and Exchange Commission) and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including annual reports and proxy statements), and (ii) permit Participants to use electronic, internet, or other non-paper means to execute applicable Plan documents (including Award Agreements) and take other actions under this Plan in a manner prescribed by the Committee.

G-19

19.13. No Liability of Committee Members . No member of the Committee shall be personally liable by reason of any contract or other instrument executed by such member or on his behalf in his capacity as a member of the Committee or for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee and each other employee, officer, or director of the Company to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be allocated or delegated, against all costs and expenses (including counsel fees) and liabilities (including sums paid in settlement of a claim) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan unless arising out of such person’s own fraud or willful misconduct; provided, however , that approval of the Board shall be required for the payment of any amount in settlement of a claim against any such person. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws, each as may be amended from time to time, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

19.14. Payments Following Accidents or Illness . If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due to such person or his estate (unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may, if the Committee so directs the Company, be paid to his spouse, child, relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of such person, or any other person deemed by the Committee to be a proper recipient on behalf of such person otherwise entitled to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Committee and the Company therefor.

19.15. Reliance on Reports . Each member of the Committee and each member of the Board shall be fully justified in relying, acting or failing to act, and shall not be liable for having so relied, acted, or failed to act in good faith, upon any report made by the independent public accountant of the Company and its Affiliates and upon any other information furnished in connection with the Plan by any person or persons other than such member.

19.16. Titles and Headings . The titles and headings of the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.

Item 20.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Tornier’s articles of association provide that Tornier shall indemnify any of its directors against all adverse financial effects incurred by such person in connection with any action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that reasonably could be believed to be in or not opposed to Tornier’s best interests. In addition, Tornier has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers.

Each indemnification agreement, which is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware (USA), provides, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and Tornier’s articles of association against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and liabilities, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by a director or officer or on such director’s or officer’s behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, but shall only be provided if the director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner such director or officer reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Tornier, and, with respect to any criminal action, suit or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such director’s or officer’s conduct was unlawful. Each indemnification agreement provides that the director or officer shall not be indemnified and advanced expenses (i) with respect to an action, suit or proceeding initiated by the director or officer unless so authorized by the board of directors of Tornier or (ii) with respect to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the director or officer to enforce or interpret such indemnification agreement unless the director or officer is successful in establishing a right to indemnification in such action, suit or proceeding, in whole or in part, or unless and to the extent that the court in such action, suit or proceeding shall determine that, despite such director’s or officer’s failure to establish the right to indemnification, the director or officer is entitled to indemnity for such expenses.

Tornier currently maintains liability insurance for its directors and officers. Such insurance would be available to Tornier’s directors and officers in accordance with its terms.

The merger agreement provides that Tornier and the combined company will continue to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of Wright and any of Wright’s subsidiaries (collectively, Indemnified Parties), against any costs or expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was a director or officer of Wright or any of Wright’s subsidiaries, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the effective time of the merger, to the fullest extent that Wright would have been permitted under applicable law and its charter documents and bylaws (and, to the extent not contrary to applicable law or its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, and any indemnification agreement) in effect on the date of the merger agreement to indemnify such person. The merger agreement also provides that Tornier and the combined company will honor all rights to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses now existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in the charter documents or bylaws of Wright or any of its subsidiaries or in any agreement to which Wright or any of its subsidiaries is a party, which rights will survive the merger and will continue in full force and effect to the extent permitted by law. Pursuant to the merger agreement, the combined company will, in its sole discretion, either (i) continue to maintain in effect for a period of at least six years from and after the effective time of the merger for the persons who, as of the date of the merger agreement, are covered by Wright’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (collectively, D&O Insurance), or, if such insurance is unavailable, will purchase, D&O Insurance with recognized insurance companies and with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage at least as favorable as provided in Wright’s existing policies; or (ii) obtain and fully pay for “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of at least six years from and after the effective time of the merger with recognized insurance companies for the persons who, as of the date of the merger agreement, are covered by Wright’s existing D&O Insurance.

II-1

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to Tornier’s directors, officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Tornier has been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 22.

Undertakings

(a)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)

to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)

to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)

to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(2)

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b)

The undersigned registrant undertakes that each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

II-2

(c)

The undersigned registrant undertakes that, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(1)

Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(2)

Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(3)

The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(4)

Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(d)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference into the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(e)

The undersigned registrant undertakes as follows:

(1)

that prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other Items of the applicable form.

(2)

that every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(f)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

II-3

(g)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first-class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(h)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

II-4
