Amendment”), filed by the Registrants with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 15, 2010.
The Company caused its subsidiaries Biomet Holdings Ltd. and Biomet Travel, Inc. to be dissolved on August 30, 2010 and June 16, 2010, respectively, and had inadvertently filed the Post-Effective Amendment under such Registrants’ EDGAR filing codes.
The Post Effective Amendment has not been declared effective and the Company confirms that no securities have been or will be sold under the Post-Effective Amendment.
It is our understanding that this application for withdrawal of the amendment will be deemed granted as of the date that it is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) unless, within fifteen days after such date, the Company receives notice from the Commission that this application will not be granted.
If you have any questions regarding this application, please contact me at (574) 371-3026.
Sincerely,
/s/ Jody S. Gale
