The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the agenda items that have been putfor binding ornon-binding resolution on the agenda of this Extraordinary General Meeting.

Subject to certain restrictions under Dutch law, each Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. You may vote if you are the shareholder of record of Shares as of the close of business on the record date (registratiedatum), [●], 2020 (the “Record Date”), even if you have previously tendered your Shares in the Offer. The Wright Board has determined that Wright’s shareholders’ register kept by American Share Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Register”) is the relevant register for determination, as of the Record Date, of the holders of Shares and others with meeting rights under Dutch law who are entitled to attend and, if relevant, vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Those who are holders of Shares or who otherwise have such meeting rights with respect to Shares on the Record Date may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and, if relevant, vote at such meeting in person, or authorize a third party to attend and, if relevant, vote at the meeting on their behalf through the use of a proxy.

Admittance of shareholders and acceptance of written voting proxies shall be governed by Dutch law. Only shareholders of record as of the Record Date, beneficial owners as of the Record Date, holders of valid proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting, in each case subject to such requirements as set forth in this proxy statement, and other persons admitted by the chairman of the meeting may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. Persons who wish to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting must give notice in writing to the Wright Board of their intention to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting prior to [●], 2020 (the “Voter Deadline”).

1

Stryker B.V.

Purchaser is a private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) organized under the laws of the Netherlands. Purchaser was formed for the purpose of negotiating the Purchase Agreement and structuring and effecting the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization (as defined below). Purchaser is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Stryker Delaware”).

Stryker Delaware, Inc.

Stryker Delaware is a Delaware corporation. Stryker Delaware was formed for the purpose of structuring and effecting the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization (as defined below). Stryker Delaware is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker.

The address of Stryker’s and Stryker Delaware’s principal executive offices is 2825 Airview Boulevard, Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA, and the telephone number at such address is +1 (269)385-2600. The address of Purchaser’s principal executive offices is Herikerbergweg 145, Mercurius Building, 2nd floor, 1101 CN, Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and the telephone number at such address is +31 20 808 3777.

Certain Effects of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (page 48)

As previously announced, on December 13, 2019, Purchaser commenced the Offer. Unless the Offer is earlier terminated, the Offer will expire at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on February 27, 2020 (the “Expiration Time,” unless the Offer is extended in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, in which event “Expiration Time” will mean the latest time and date at which the Offer, as so extended by Purchaser, will expire).

Following the later of the Offer Closing and the closing of any Subsequent Offering Period (as defined below), as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period (each as defined below), Stryker or Purchaser intend to effectuate or cause to be effectuated a corporate reorganization of or involving Wright and its subsidiaries (the “Post-Offer Reorganization”). The Post-Offer Reorganization will utilize processes available to Purchaser under Dutch and other applicable law aimed at strengthening Stryker’s direct or indirect control over Wright or its assets and business operations. More specifically, the Asset Sale and Liquidation, the Mergers and the Compulsory Acquisition (each as defined below) would ensure that Purchaser or one of its affiliates becomes the owner of all or substantially all of Wright’s business operations from and after the consummation of such Post-Offer Reorganization. In the event the Asset Sale and Liquidation, the Mergers or the Compulsory Acquisition are consummated, Wright will either be liquidated, disappear or become wholly owned by Purchaser. For purposes of this summary, “Subsequent Offering Period” means a subsequent offering period of at least 10 business days in accordance with Rule14d-11 promulgated under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. In the event that prior to the expiration of any such Subsequent Offering Period, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Asset Sale, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to) extend the Subsequent Offering Period for at least five business days to permit any remaining minority shareholders to tender their Shares in exchange for the Offer Consideration (such extension, the “Minority Exit Offering Period”). In the event that promptly following the Expiration Time, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Mergers (as defined below), Purchaser will not be required to provide either a Subsequent Offering Period or Minority Exit Offering Period, but may do so if Purchaser chooses.

2

The Post-Offer Reorganization may involve, among other restructuring options specified in the Purchase Agreement, one of the following (or any combination thereof):

• the sale, transfer and assumption of the business of Wright, including substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Wright, to or by Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser) (the “Asset Sale”) followed by the liquidation and dissolution of Wright (the “Liquidation”) in accordance with applicable Dutch procedures, with Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser) providing certain funds and indemnities to enable Wright’s liquidator to make an immediate advance liquidation distribution (the “Second Step Distribution”);

• a compulsory acquisition procedure (uitkoopprocedure) ofnon-tendered Shares as provided by Dutch law (the “Compulsory Acquisition”);

• a series of mergers whereby (i) Wright will merge with and into a Luxembourgsociété anonyme that is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Wright (“Wright Luxembourg”) with Wright Luxembourg surviving the merger (the “First-Step Merger”), (ii) Wright Luxembourg will merge with and into a Bermuda exempted company that is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Wright Luxembourg (“Wright Bermuda”) with Wright Bermuda surviving the merger (the “Second-Step Merger”) and (iii) a Bermuda exempted company formed by Stryker as a wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser will merge with and into Wright Bermuda with Wright Bermuda surviving the merger (the “Third-Step Merger” and, together with the First-Step Merger and the Second-Step Merger, the “Mergers”); or

• a statutoryspin-off (afsplitsing) of certain assets and liabilities of Wright to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wright (the “Demerger”).

Bergy, Jeanne M. Blondia and David G. Furgason asnon-executive directors on the Wright Board, each of whom has been designated by Purchaser in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and has been nominated pursuant to a binding nomination by the Wright Board (the “Director Resolutions”);

Effect on Wright if the Offer is Not Completed (page 53)

If the Offer is not completed, Wright shareholders will not receive the Offer Consideration pursuant to the Offer and the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals that are adopted will not be implemented. Instead, Wright would remain an independent public company, your Shares would continue to be listed and traded on Nasdaq and registered under the Exchange Act and Wright would continue to file periodic reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Under specified circumstances, Wright will be required to pay Stryker a termination fee in an amount equal to $150 million, as described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Termination Fee,” beginning on page 99.

Offer Consideration (page 53)

If you tender your Shares in the Offer, upon completion of the Offer, you will be entitled to receive the Offer Consideration of $30.75 per Share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, payable in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Offer to Purchase. For example, if you own 100 Shares, you will receive $3,075 in cash in exchange for your Shares, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Offer to Purchase. If you are the record owner of your Shares and you tender your Shares directly to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Depositary”), you will not have to pay brokerage fees, commissions, or similar expenses. If you own your Shares through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee and your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee tenders your Shares on your behalf, your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or nominee may charge you a fee for doing so. You should consult your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or nominee to determine whether any charges will apply.

Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (page 60)

The Wright Board, after considering various factors described in this proxy statement under the caption “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 60, has unanimously, among other things (a) determined that the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Offer, certain of the Post-Offer Reorganization transactions (including the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and Second Step Distribution and the Mergers (each as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are in the best interests of Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders, (b) approved and adopted the Purchase Agreement and (c) resolved, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to recommend that Wright’s shareholders tender their Shares into the Offer and approve and adopt the matters to be proposed for consideration and approval by Wright’s shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote (i) “FOR” each of the Governance Resolutions, (ii) “FOR” the Discharge Resolution, (iii) “FOR” each of the Asset Sale Resolutions, (iv) “FOR” each of the Merger Resolutions, (v) “FOR” the Demerger Resolution and (vi) “FOR” theNon-Binding Vote on Executive Compensation Proposal.

Change of Recommendation (page 64)

change its recommendation, or take other actions constituting a Change of Board Recommendation (as defined in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Change of Recommendation,” beginning on page 64) except in certain circumstances. For more information, see the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Change of Recommendation,” beginning on page 64.

Opinion of Wright’s Financial Advisor to the Wright Board (page 65)

The Wright Board retained Guggenheim Securities, LLC (“Guggenheim Securities”) as its financial advisor in connection with the potential sale of Wright. Guggenheim Securities rendered an opinion to the Wright Board to the effect that, as of November 3, 2019 and based on and subject to the matters considered, the procedures followed, the assumptions made and various limitations of and qualifications to the review undertaken, the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (other than in the case of any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders. The full text of Guggenheim Securities’ written opinion, which is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement and which you should read carefully and in its entirety, is subject to the assumptions, limitations, qualifications and other conditions contained in such opinion and is necessarily based on economic, capital markets and other conditions, and the information made available to Guggenheim Securities, as of the date of such opinion.

Guggenheim Securities’ opinion was provided to the Wright Board (in its capacity as such) for its information and assistance in connection with its evaluation of the Offer Consideration. Guggenheim Securities’ opinion and any materials provided in connection therewith did not constitute a recommendation to the Wright Board with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, nor does Guggenheim Securities’ opinion or the summary of its underlying financial analyses elsewhere in this proxy statement constitute advice or a recommendation to any holder of Shares as to whether to tender any such shares pursuant to the Offer or how to vote or act in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or otherwise. Guggenheim Securities’ opinion addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of such opinion, of the Offer Consideration to be received by holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (excluding any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) to the extent expressly specified in such opinion and does not address (i) any other term, aspect or implication of (a) the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation, the form or structure of the Offer, any Post-Offer Reorganization or any other transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or the implementation of any of the foregoing) or the Purchase Agreement or (b) any other agreement, transaction document or instrument contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or to be entered into or amended in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or (ii) the fairness, financial or otherwise, of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to, or of any consideration to be paid to or received by, the holders of any other class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of Wright.

For a description of the opinion that the Wright Board received from Guggenheim Securities, see the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Opinion of Wright’s Financial Advisor to the Wright Board,” beginning on page 65.

Interests of the Directors and Executive Officers of Wright in the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (page 101)

When considering the recommendation of the Wright Board that you vote to adopt each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals, you should be aware that certain members of Wright management and the Wright Board may be deemed to have certain interests in the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, that are different from or in addition to the interests of Wright shareholders generally. The Wright Board was aware of these interests and considered that such interests may be different from or in addition to the interests of Wright shareholders generally, among other matters, in determining to approve the Purchase Agreement, the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and in recommending that the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals be adopted by the shareholders of Wright. These interests may include the following:

• Continued exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses, and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance through six years following the Offer Closing (as defined below), to be provided by Wright or which Stryker will cause Wright to provide.

• Vesting, in full, at the Acceptance Time, of each RSU (as defined below) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) and of each PSU (as defined below) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, with any applicable performance conditions associated with such PSUs deemed to have been achieved at maximum performance.

• Certain potential employment or consultancy, compensation, severance or other employee or consultant benefits arrangements between certain executive officers, Stryker and Purchaser to be effective following the Offer Closing (but for which no definitive agreements or arrangements have been executed).

Treatment of Equity and Equity-Based Awards

The Purchase Agreement provides that each option to acquire Shares, other than awards under Wright’s Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “WrightESPP”) (each such option, a “Stock Option”) (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time will vest in full at the Acceptance Time (except for, if the Offer Closing does not occur prior to July 1, 2020, Stock Options granted after July 1, 2020 (“2020 Stock Options”), which will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 Stock Option that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor). All unexercised Stock Options outstanding (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that are vested immediately prior to the Offer Closing will be cancelled, and, in exchange for such cancelled Stock Options, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the

10

product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Offer Consideration over the per Share exercise price of the respective Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the total number of Shares subject to the unexercised Stock Option they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing.

The Purchase Agreement provides that each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) will vest in full at the Acceptance Time (except, if the Offer Closing does not occur prior to July 1, 2020, for RSUs granted after July 1, 2020 (“2020 RSUs”), which will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 RSU that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor).

The Purchase Agreement provides that each performance share unit (“PSU”) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time will vest in full at the Acceptance Time, with any applicable performance conditions associated with such PSUs deemed to have been achieved at maximum performance. At the Offer Closing, PSUs will be cancelled and, in exchange for such cancelled PSUs, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the total number of Shares deliverable under the PSUs they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing multiplied by the Offer Consideration.

Treatment of Certain Wright Indebtedness (page 96)

Wright has agreed not to make any change to the terms of the indentures governing its Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (which matured on February 15, 2020), Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 and Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) without the prior written consent of Stryker. At the Offer Closing, Wright will take all necessary action to perform and comply with all of its obligations under the indentures governing its Convertible Notes within the time periods required thereby. In addition, Wright will take all commercially reasonable actions requested by Stryker in connection with making elections under, amending, obtaining waivers, and/or unwinding or otherwise settling the hedge and warrant transactions associated with the Convertible Notes.

Certain Material Tax Consequences (page 112)

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The receipt of cash in exchange for your Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) or the Post-Offer Reorganization generally will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and may also be a taxable transaction under applicable state, local or other tax laws.

We urge you to consult your own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to you of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization.

Certain Dutch Tax Consequences

Fornon-Dutch resident Wright shareholders who or that:

a) are not individuals and do not have, nor are deemed to have, directly or indirectly, a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in Wright that is held

11

with the principal purpose or one of the principal purposes of avoiding income tax at the level of another party and such interest is held as part of an artificial arrangement or transaction or series of arrangements or combination of transactions, whereby such arrangement or series of arrangements or transaction or combination of transactions is considered artificial if it is not set up on the basis of valid commercial motives and whereby an arrangement or transaction may consists of several steps or parts, and (i) do not derive profits from an enterprise that is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands to which permanent establishment or permanent representative the Shares are attributable or (ii) are not, other than by way of securities, entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise or aco-entitlement to the net worth of an enterprise, which is effectively managed in the Netherlands and to which enterprise the Shares are attributable; and

b) are individuals and do not have, nor are deemed to have, directly or indirectly, a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in Wright that is not part of the assets of an enterprise (behoort niet tot het vermogen van een onderneming) and (i) do not derive profits from an enterprise or an interest in an enterprise that is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands to which permanent establishment or permanent representative the Shares are attributable, (ii) do not realize income or gains with respect to the Shares that qualify as income from miscellaneous activities in the Netherlands, which include activities with respect to the Shares that exceed regular, active portfolio management or (iii) are not, other than by way of securities, entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise that is effectively managed in the Netherlands and to which enterprise the Shares are attributable,

any gains realized in respect of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) or as a result of the Post-Offer Reorganization will generally not be subject to Dutch corporate or personal income tax.

Depending on the circumstances, Dutch resident Wright shareholders and certainnon-Dutch resident Wright shareholders may be subject to Dutch corporate or personal income tax on any gains realized pursuant to the Offer or the Post-Offer Reorganization.

In the event that the Mergers are implemented and a Wright shareholder exercises a Merger Withdrawal Right (as defined below), then any cash compensation paid to such withdrawing Wright shareholder will be subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) at the statutory rate of 15% to the extent that the amount of the cash compensation exceeds the averagepaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes subject to any exemption, reduction or refund that may be available to such withdrawing Wright shareholder. As a result, the net amount received by such withdrawing Wright shareholder may be lower than the amount that they would have received had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period).

If the Asset Sale and Liquidation are implemented, Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) will be due at the statutory rate of 15% to the extent that the amount of the Second Step Distribution exceeds the averagepaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes subject to any exemption, reduction or refund that may be available to a Wright shareholder. As a result, the net amount received by Wright shareholders in the Second Step Distribution for Shares that are not tendered in the Offer may be lower than the amount that they would have received had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period).

For a more detailed discussion of certain material Dutch tax consequences of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization, please see the section of this proxy statement captioned “Certain Material Tax Consequences—

12

Certain Dutch Tax Consequences,” beginning on page 115. We urge you to consult your own tax advisor as to the particular Dutch tax consequences to you of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization.

Appraisal Rights (page 118)

Wright shareholders are not entitled under Dutch law or otherwise to appraisal rights with respect to the Offer.

In the event that the Compulsory Acquisition is permissible under applicable law and implemented, the Dutch Court will determine in its sole discretion the price to be paid for thenon-tendered Shares, which price may be greater than, equal to or less than the Offer Consideration. Such price will be increased by statutory interest (“Dutch Statutory Interest”) accrued at the rate applicable in the Netherlands (currently 2% per annum). Thenon-tendering Wright shareholders do not have the right to commence a Compulsory Acquisition proceeding to oblige Stryker or Purchaser to buy their Shares.

In the event the Merger Resolutions are adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, any Wright shareholder that votes against the Merger Resolutions may exercise its withdrawal right under Dutch law in connection with the First-Step Merger (the “Merger Withdrawal Right”) by filing a request for compensation in accordance with Section 2:333h of the Dutch Civil Code and the Common Draft Terms of Merger within one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting or subsequent extraordinary general meeting at which the Merger Resolutions were adopted. If the Mergers are then implemented, such compensation would be paid in cash in connection with the consummation of the First-Step Merger. The Merger Resolutions include certain amendments to Wright’s articles of association that fix the cash compensation payable to any such Wright shareholders exercising the Merger Withdrawal Right at an amount per Share equal to the Offer Consideration without interest and less applicable withholding taxes.

Regulatory Approvals; Efforts (page 95)

Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have agreed to use their respective reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain all regulatory approvals required to consummate the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. These approvals include (i) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period (and any extensions thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (“HSR Act”); (ii) approvals required by the Austrian Federal Competition Authority, (iii) approvals required by the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce of Colombia, (iv) approvals required by the German Act against Restraints of Competition, (v) approvals required by the General Authority for Competition for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and (iv) approvals required by the Competition and Markets Authority of the United Kingdom. Stryker and Wright filed their respective HSR Act notifications on December 16, 2019 and on December 31, 2019 received a request from the Federal Trade Commission of the United States for additional information and documentary material.

Litigation Related to the Transactions (page 112)

Two putative class action lawsuits have been filed against Wright and the members of the Wright Board, one in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and the other in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. Each lawsuit alleges that Wright and the members of the Wright Board violated federal securities laws and regulations by failing to disclose material information in the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule14D-9 filed with the SEC by Wright on December 13, 2019 in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

Market Prices and Dividend Data (page 183)

On December 12, 2019, the last full trading day before the commencement of the Offer, the reported closing price of the Shares on Nasdaq was $29.44 per Share.

Wright has not previously declared or paid cash dividends and has no plans to declare or pay any dividends in the near future.

Q: When and where is the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: Wright’s extraordinary general meeting will be held on [●], 2020 at Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, The Netherlands, at [●], local time.

Q: Who is entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: Subject to certain restrictions under Dutch law, each Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. You may vote if you are the shareholder of record of Shares as of the close of business on the Record Date, even if you have previously tendered your Shares in the Offer. The Wright Board has determined that Wright’s shareholders’ register (the “Register”) is the relevant register for determination, as of the Record Date, of the holders of Shares and others with meeting rights under Dutch law who are entitled to attend and, if relevant, vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Those who are holders of Shares or who otherwise have such meeting rights with respect to Shares on the Record Date and who are registered as such in the Register may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and, if relevant, vote at such meeting in person, or authorize a third party to attend and, if relevant, vote at the meeting on their behalf through the use of a proxy.

Q: May I attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote in person?

A: Admittance of shareholders and acceptance of written voting proxies shall be governed by Dutch law. Only shareholders of record as of the Record Date, beneficial owners as of the Record Date, holders of valid proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting and other persons admitted by the chairman of the meeting may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. Persons who wish to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting must give notice in writing to the Wright Board of their intention to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting prior to [●], 2020. The notice must contain the name and the number of Shares the person will represent in the meeting. All attendees must be prepared to identify themselves with a valid proof of identity for admittance. The additional items that attendees must bring depends on whether they are shareholders of record, beneficial owners or proxy holders.

A shareholder who holds Shares directly registered in such shareholder’s name in the Register (a “shareholder of record”) and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring a valid proof of identity.

A person who holds a validly executed proxy entitling such person to vote on behalf of a shareholder of record and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring: (i) a valid proof of identity and (ii) the validly executed proxy naming such person as the proxy holder, signed by the shareholder of record.

15

A shareholder who holds Shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee (a “beneficial owner”) and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring: (i) a valid proof of identity and (ii) proof of beneficial ownership as of the close of business on the Record Date (e.g., a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee that is the record owner of such beneficial owner’s Shares, a brokerage account statement or the voting instruction form provided by the broker).

A person who holds a validly executed proxy entitling such person to vote on behalf of a beneficial owner of Shares and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring: (i) a valid proof of identity (ii) the validly executed proxy naming such person as the proxy holder, signed by the beneficial owner of the Shares and (iii) proof of beneficial ownership of the relevant beneficial owner as of the close of business on the Record Date (e.g., a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee that is the record owner of such beneficial owner’s Shares, a brokerage account statement or the voting instruction form provided by the broker).

Failure to provide the requested documents at the door or failure to comply with the procedures for the Extraordinary General Meeting may prevent shareholders from being admitted to the meeting.

Q: Why is this Extraordinary General Meeting being called?

A: As previously announced, Purchaser has made an offer to purchase all of the outstanding Shares at a purchase price of $30.75 per share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, to the holders thereof, payable in cash pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase and in the Letter of Transmittal. The Extraordinary General Meeting is being called in order to provide information regarding the Offer and for Wright shareholders to vote on the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals.

Q: What am I being asked to vote on at the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: You are being asked to consider and vote on the following:

• resolutions for the conditional appointment, effective upon the Offer Closing, of Spencer S. Stiles as executive director on the Wright Board and each of William E. Berry, Jr., Dean H. Bergy, Jeanne M. Blondia and David G. Furgason asnon-executive directors on the Wright Board, each of whom has been designated by Purchaser in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and has been nominated pursuant to a binding nomination by the Wright Board;

• resolutions for the conditional acceptance of the resignations of each of Robert J. Palmisano, [●], [●], [●] and [●] as members of the Wright Board;

• a resolution granting full and final discharge to each member of the Wright Board for his or her acts of management or supervision, as applicable, up to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting and effective upon the Acceptance Time;

• a resolution to (i) amend Wright’s articles of association to fix the amount of compensation that dissenting shareholders may claim in connection with the proposed Mergers and (ii) authorize any and

16

all lawyers and deputy civil law notaries practicing at Stibbe N.V., Amsterdam, the Netherlands or Houthoff Coöperatief U.A., Amsterdam, the Netherlands to execute the notarial deed of amendment of Wright’s articles of association to effect the aforementioned amendment, a copy of which is attached to the enclosed proxy statement as Annex D;

• a resolution approving the Mergers, including the entry into by Wright of the First-Step Merger pursuant to the common draft terms of the cross-border merger, a copy of which is attached to the enclosed proxy statement as Annex E (the implementation of the Mergers being, inter alia, subject to the Purchaser’s election to do so);

• a resolution to (i) amend Wright’s articles of association to authorize the Wright Board to resolve on a statutory demerger to an entity wholly-owned by Wright and (ii) authorize the Authorized Notaries to execute the notarial deed of amendment of Wright’s articles of association to effect the aforementioned amendment, a copy of which is attached to the enclosed proxy statement as Annex F;

• a resolution conditionally approving (i) the amendment of Wright’s articles of association to align Wright’s financial year with that reckoned by Purchaser and (ii) the authorization of the Authorized Notaries to execute the notarial deed of amendment of Wright’s articles of association to effect the aforementioned amendment, a copy of which is attached to the enclosed proxy statement as Annex I; and

• a resolution to approve, by means of anon-binding advisory vote, compensation that will or may become payable by Wright to its named executive officers in connection with the completion of the Offer.

Each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals, as well as the conditions to the effectiveness of each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals, is more fully described in the “Explanatory Notes to the Agenda of the Extraordinary General Meeting,” beginning on page 30.

Q: What will I receive if the Offer is completed?

A: If you tender your Shares in the Offer, you will be entitled to receive the Offer Consideration at the Offer Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal. If you are the record owner of your Shares and you tender your Shares directly to the Depositary, you will not have to pay brokerage fees, commissions, or similar expenses. If you own your Shares through a broker, bank or other nominee, and your broker, bank or other nominee tenders your Shares on your behalf, your broker, bank or other nominee may charge you a fee for doing so. You should consult your broker, bank or other nominee to determine whether any charges will apply.

Q: If I decide not to tender, how will the Offer affect my Shares and what will happen to Wright?

A: After the Offer Closing, Purchaser intends to cause Wright to terminate the listing of the Shares on Nasdaq (the “Delisting”). As a result, we anticipate that there will not be an active trading market for the Shares. In

17

addition, after the Offer Closing, Purchaser intends to cause Wright to terminate the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable and take steps to cause the suspension of its reporting obligations with respect to the Shares with the SEC. As a result, with respect to the Shares, Wright would no longer be required to make filings with the SEC or otherwise comply with the rules of the SEC. Furthermore, the ability of “affiliates” of Wright and persons holding “restricted securities” of Wright to dispose of such securities pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) may be impaired or eliminated.

In addition, after amendment of Wright’s articles of association following the Delisting, pursuant to the Governance Resolutions proposed to be approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting, record ownership of Shares can only be transferred pursuant to a notarial deed executed before a Dutch notary. This will require compliance by the transferor and transferee of Shares with various administrative formalities under Dutch law, including execution of a power of attorney that must be legalized and apostilled and provision of know-your-customer information, and will also require shareholders to incur costs for Dutch notarial fees when they transfer Shares. Obtaining a notarial deed in the Netherlands can be expected to cost between €2,000 and €5,000 depending on the regular hourly rates for partners and associates of the Dutch law firm with which the relevant notary is associated. The time to obtain a notarial deed in the Netherlands depends on a variety of factors, including how quickly a local notary can legalize a signature and passport, how quickly a formal legal opinion can be provided (if applicable) and how quickly an apostille can be obtained. Furthermore, after such amendment of Wright’s articles of association, any transfer of record ownership of Shares prior to June 1, 2022 would require the prior approval of the Wright Board. The foregoing amendments to Wright’s articles of association will not become effective during the Offer or any Subsequent Offering Period.

If the Asset Sale or the Mergers are consummated, it is anticipated that Wright shareholders who do not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) will be offered or will receive the same consideration for their Shares as those Wright shareholders who tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period), without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. However, in the Compulsory Acquisition, the Dutch Court will determine in its sole discretion the price to be paid for thenon-tendered Shares, which price may be greater than, equal to or less than the Offer Consideration. Such price will be increased by Dutch Statutory Interest. In the event the Asset Sale and Liquidation, the Mergers or the Compulsory Acquisition are consummated, Wright will either be liquidated, disappear or become wholly owned by Purchaser.

The applicable withholding taxes and other taxes, if any, imposed onnon-tendering Wright shareholders in respect of any Post-Offer Reorganization may be different from, and greater than, the taxes imposed upon such Wright shareholders had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period).

In addition, if the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization are completed, another difference between tendering your Shares and not tendering your Shares pursuant to the Offer is that holders of Shares tendered in the Offer may be paid in respect of such Shares sooner than holders ofnon-tendering Shares are paid in respect ofnon-tendering Shares in any Post-Offer Reorganization.

It is possible that Purchaser may not be able to, or may elect not to, implement any proposed Post-Offer Reorganization after the consummation of the Offer, or that such Post-Offer Reorganization may be delayed or unable to be completed. Any Post-Offer Reorganization could be the subject of litigation, and a court could delay the Post-Offer Reorganization or prohibit it from occurring on the terms described in the Offer to Purchase, or from occurring at all. Moreover, even if Purchaser is able to effect any proposed Post-Offer Reorganization, the consideration thatnon-tendering Wright shareholders receive therefrom may be different than the consideration that they would have received had they tendered their Shares in the Offer (and they may also be subject to increased or additional taxes).

Q: How does the per Share Offer Consideration compare to the market price of the Shares prior to the announcement of execution of the Purchase Agreement and as of a recent date?

A: The Offer Consideration of $30.75 per Share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, represents a premium of (a) 48% compared to the closing price of the Shares of $20.80 per Share on October 31, 2019 (the last trading day prior to speculation that Wright was exploring a sale), (b) 48% compared to the volume weighted average sales price of Wright’s ordinary shares of $20.84 per Share over the 10 days ended October 31, 2019, (c) 50% compared to the volume weighted average sales price of the Shares of $20.49 per Share over the 30 days ended October 31, 2019 and (d) 46% compared to the volume weighted average sales price of the Shares of $21.06 per Share over the 90 days ended October 31, 2019, but a discount of 6% to the52-week high sales price of the Shares of $32.86 per Share. On [●], 2020, the last full trading day before the filing of this proxy statement, the reported closing price of the Shares was $[●] per Share.

Q: What do I need to do now?

A: We encourage you to read this proxy statement, the annexes to this proxy statement, including the Purchase Agreement, and the documents we refer to in this proxy statement carefully and consider how the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals affect you. Then complete, sign, date and return, as promptly as possible, the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying reply envelope or grant your proxy electronically over the Internet, so that your Shares can be voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If you hold your Shares in “street name,” please refer to the voting instruction forms provided by your broker, bank or other nominee to vote your Shares.

Q: How does the Wright Board recommend that I vote?

A: The Wright Board, after considering the various factors described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement— Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 60, unanimously, among other things, (a) determined that the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Offer, certain transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including the Mergers, Asset Sale, the Liquidation and Second Step Distribution (each as defined in the Purchase Agreement) are in the best interests of Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders, (b) approved and adopted the Purchase Agreement and (c) resolved, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to recommend that Wright’s shareholders tender their Shares into the Offer and approve and adopt the matters to be proposed for consideration and approval by Wright’s shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote (i) “FOR” each of the Governance Resolutions, (ii) “FOR” the Discharge Resolution, (iii) “FOR” each of the Asset Sale Resolutions, (iv) “FOR” each of the Merger Resolutions, (v) “FOR” the Demerger Resolution and (vi) “FOR” theNon-Binding Vote on Executive Compensation Proposal.

Q: What happens if the Offer is not completed?

A: If the Offer is not completed, Wright shareholders will not receive the Offer Consideration pursuant to the Offer and the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals will have no effect. Instead, Wright would remain an independent public company, your Shares would continue to be listed and traded on Nasdaq and registered under the Exchange Act and Wright would continue to file periodic reports with the SEC.

19

Under specified circumstances, Wright will be required to pay Stryker a termination fee in an amount equal to $150 million following the termination of the Purchase Agreement, as described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Purchase Agreement—Termination of the Purchase Agreement—Termination Fee,” beginning on page 99.

Q: Do any of Wright’s directors or officers have interests in the Offer, the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals that may differ from those of Wright shareholders generally?

A: When considering the recommendation of the Wright Board that you vote to adopt each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals, you should be aware that certain members of Wright management and the Wright Board may be deemed to have certain interests in the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, that are different from or in addition to the interests of Wright shareholders generally. The Wright Board was aware of these interests and considered that such interests may be different from or in addition to the interests of Wright shareholders generally, among other matters, in determining to approve the Purchase Agreement, the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and in recommending that the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals be adopted by the shareholders of Wright. For a description of the interests of our directors and executive officers in the Offer, see the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Interests of the Directors and Executive Officers of Wright in the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 101.

Q: What vote is required to adopt the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals?

A: For each of the Discharge Resolution, Asset Sale Resolutions, Demerger Resolution, Conversion Resolutions, Delisting Articles Amendment Resolution and the Financial Year Articles Amendment Resolution , the affirmative vote of an absolute majority of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required to adopt each such resolution.

For the Merger Resolutions, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required to adopt such resolution if at least 50% of the issued share capital of Wright is represented, either in person or by proxy, at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If less than 50% of the issued share capital of Wright is represented, either in person or by proxy, at the Extraordinary General Meeting,two-thirds of the votes cast is required to adopt the Merger Resolutions. Shares abstaining from voting will count as Shares present at the Extraordinary General Meeting but will not count for the purpose of determining the number of votes cast.

The Director Resolutions will be adopted unless the binding nature of the nominations is overridden.

The failure of any shareholder of record to submit a signed proxy card, grant a proxy electronically over the Internet or vote in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of the vote to adopt the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals unless a quorum is not present at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner, the failure to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your Shares will have no effect on the outcome of the vote to adopt the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals unless a quorum is not present at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Q: What constitutes a quorum?

A: Our articles of association require a general quorum (which applies unless another quorum applies by law or our articles of association) of one third of the issued Shares (not including Shares on which, pursuant to our articles of association, no votes may be cast) present or represented at our Extraordinary General Meeting.

20

In case the quorum is not met in the Extraordinary General Meeting, a second meeting may be convened at which the relevant resolutions—except for the Director Resolutions and the Merger Resolutions—may be adopted without a quorum.

Q: What is the difference between holding Shares as a shareholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

A: If your Shares are registered directly in your name in the Register (including a registration directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC), you are considered, with respect to those Shares, to be the “shareholder of record.” In this case, this proxy statement and your proxy card have been sent directly to you by Wright.

If your Shares are held through a broker, bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of the Shares held in “street name.” In that case, this proxy statement has been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee who is considered, with respect to those Shares, to be the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your Shares by following their instructions for voting. You are also invited to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. However, because you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote your Shares in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee, and if you meet the requirements set out in this proxy statement.

Q: How may I vote?

A: If you are a shareholder of record, there are four ways to vote:

• By attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting in person;

• By attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting by proxy;

• By visiting the Internet at the address on your proxy card; or

• By completing, dating, signing and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying prepaid reply envelope.

A control number, located on your proxy card, is designed to verify your identity and allow you to vote your Shares, and to confirm that your voting instructions have been properly recorded when voting electronically over the Internet. Please be aware that, although there is no charge for voting your Shares, if you vote electronically over the Internet, you may incur costs such as Internet access charges for which you will be responsible.

Even if you plan to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person or by proxy, you are strongly encouraged to vote your Shares by proxy. If you are a shareholder of record or if you obtain a valid legal proxy to vote Shares which you beneficially own, you may still vote your Shares in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting, even if you have previously voted by proxy. If you are present at the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote in person or by proxy, your previous vote by proxy will not be counted.

If you are a beneficial owner you may vote through your broker, bank or other nominee by completing and returning the voting form provided by your broker, bank or other nominee, or electronically over the Internet through your broker, bank or other nominee if such a service is provided. To vote via the Internet through your broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions on the voting form provided by your broker, bank or other nominee.

Q: If my broker holds my Shares in “street name,” will my broker vote my Shares for me?

A: Not without your direction. Your broker, bank or other nominee will only be permitted to vote your Shares on any Extraordinary General Meeting Proposal if you instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how

21

to vote. “Broker non votes” are Shares held by a broker, bank or other nominee that are present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting, but with respect to which the broker, bank or other nominee is not instructed by the beneficial owner of such Shares (e.g., the “street name” holder) on how to vote on a particular proposal and the broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power on such proposal. Because brokers, banks and other nominees do not have discretionary voting authority with respect to the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals, if a beneficial owner of Shares held in “street name” does not give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee with respect to any of these proposals, then those Shares will not be voted thereat. However, if there are any broker non votes, then such broker non votes will count for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Extraordinary General Meeting.Therefore, it is important that you instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how you wish to vote your Shares.

Q: May I change my vote after I have mailed my signed proxy card or otherwise submitted my vote by proxy?

A: Yes. If you are a shareholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time within the time indicated on the accompanying proxy (the “Voter Deadline”) by:

• Submitting a new proxy electronically over the Internet after the date of the earlier submitted proxy prior to the Voter Deadline;

• Delivering a written notice of revocation to our Secretary prior to the Voter Deadline;

• Signing another proxy card with a later date and returning it to us prior to the Voter Deadline; or

• Attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting in person.

If you are you a beneficial owner, you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee for instructions regarding how to change your vote or contact our proxy solicitor, Morrow Sodali LLC at (800)662-5200. You may also vote in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting if you obtain a valid legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee, and if you meet the requirements set out in this proxy statement.

Q: What is a proxy?

A: A proxy is your legal designation of another person, referred to as a “proxy,” to vote your Shares. The written document describing the matters to be considered and voted on at the Extraordinary General Meeting is called a “proxy statement.” The document used to designate a person designated by the Wright Board as a proxy to vote your Shares is called a “proxy card.” The Wright Board has designated each of Robert J. Palmisano, Lance A. Berry and James A. Lightman, and each of them with full power of substitution, as proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Q: If a shareholder gives a proxy, how are the Shares voted?

A: The individuals named on the enclosed proxy card, or your proxies, will vote your Shares in the way that you indicate. When completing the Internet process or the proxy card, you may specify whether your Shares should be voted “FOR” or “AGAINST” or to “ABSTAIN” from voting on all, some or none of the specific items of business to come before the Extraordinary General Meeting. Abstentions will count for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Extraordinary General Meeting, but will not count as a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals.

If you properly sign and return your proxy card but do not mark the boxes showing how your Shares should be voted on a matter, the Shares represented by your properly signed proxy will be voted as recommended by the Wright Board with respect to such matter.

22

Q: What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

A: You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your Shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold Shares. If you are a shareholder of record and your Shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, date, sign and return (or vote via the Internet with respect to) each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive.

Q: Who will count the votes?

A: All votes will be counted by the independent inspector of election appointed for the Extraordinary General Meeting. The chairman of the Extraordinary General Meeting will determine whether resolutions are adopted.

Q: Where can I find the voting results of the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A: Wright intends to announce preliminary voting results at the Extraordinary General Meeting and publish final results in a Current Report on Form8-K that will be filed with the SEC within four business days following the Extraordinary General Meeting. All reports that Wright files with the SEC are publicly available when filed. See the section of this proxy statement captioned “Where You Can Find More Information,” beginning on page 189.

Q: What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of tendering Shares for U.S. shareholders?

A: The receipt of cash in exchange for your Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) or the Post-Offer Reorganization generally will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and may also be a taxable transaction under applicable state, local or other tax laws.

We urge you to consult your own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to you of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization.

A more complete description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization is provided in this proxy statement captioned “Certain Material Tax Consequences—Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” beginning on page 112.

Q: What are the material Dutch tax consequences of having my Shares accepted for payment in the Offer?

A: Fornon-Dutch resident Wright shareholders who or that:

a) are not individuals and do not have, nor are deemed to have, directly or indirectly, a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in Wright that is held with the principal purpose or one of the principal purposes of avoiding income tax at the level of another party and such interest is held as part of an artificial arrangement or transaction or series of arrangements or combination of transactions, whereby such arrangement or series of arrangements or transaction or combination of transactions is considered artificial if it is not set up on the basis of valid commercial motives and whereby an arrangement or transaction may consists of several steps or parts, and (i) do not derive profits from an enterprise that is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands to which permanent establishment or permanent representative the Shares are attributable or (ii) are not, other than by way of securities, entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise or aco-entitlement to the net worth of an enterprise, which is effectively managed in the Netherlands and to which enterprise the Shares are attributable; and

b) are individuals and do not have, nor are deemed to have, directly or indirectly, a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in Wright that is not part of the assets of an enterprise (behoort niet tot het vermogen van een onderneming) and (i) do not derive profits from an enterprise or an interest in an enterprise that is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands to which permanent establishment or permanent representative the Shares are attributable, (ii) do not realize income or gains with respect to the Shares that qualify as income from miscellaneous activities in the Netherlands, which include activities with respect to the Shares that exceed regular, active portfolio management or (iii) are not, other than by way of securities, entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise that is effectively managed in the Netherlands and to which enterprise the Shares are attributable,

any gains realized in respect of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) or as a result of the Post-Offer Reorganization will generally not be subject to Dutch corporate or personal income tax.

Depending on the circumstances, Dutch resident Wright shareholders and certainnon-Dutch resident Wright shareholders may be subject to Dutch income tax or Dutch corporate income tax (as applicable) on any gains realized in respect of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer.

For a more detailed discussion of certain material Dutch tax consequences of the Offer please see the section of this proxy statement captioned “Certain Material Tax Consequences—Certain Dutch Tax Consequences,” beginning on page 115. We urge you to consult your own tax advisor as to the particular Dutch tax consequences to you of the Offer.

Q: What will the holders of outstanding Wright equity awards receive in the Offer?

A: The Purchase Agreement provides that each Stock Option (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time will vest in full at the Acceptance Time (except for 2020 Stock Options, which will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 Stock Option that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor). All unexercised Stock Options outstanding (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that are vested immediately prior to the Offer Closing will be cancelled, and, in exchange for such cancelled Stock Options, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Offer Consideration over the per Share exercise price of the respective Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the total number of Shares subject to the unexercised Stock Option they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing.

The Purchase Agreement provides that each RSU that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) will vest in full at the Acceptance Time (except for 2020 RSUs, which will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 RSU that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor). At the Offer Closing, all outstanding RSUs that are vested will be cancelled and, in exchange for such cancelled RSUs, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the total number of Shares deliverable under the RSUs they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing multiplied by the Offer Consideration.

The Purchase Agreement provides that each PSU that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time will vest in full at the Acceptance Time, with any applicable performance conditions associated with such PSUs deemed to have been achieved at maximum performance. At the Offer Closing, PSUs will be cancelled and, in exchange for such cancelled PSUs, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the total number

24

of Shares deliverable under the PSUs they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing multiplied by the Offer Consideration.

Q: When do you expect the Offer Closing to occur?

A: While there is no assurance that the Offer Closing will occur, we are working toward an Offer Closing as soon as possible following the initial expiration of the Offer on February 27, 2020. However, the exact timing of completion of the Offer cannot be predicted because the completion of the Offer is subject to conditions, including, among other things, the receipt of the required regulatory approvals.

Q: Am I entitled to appraisal rights?

A: Wright shareholders are not entitled under Dutch law or otherwise to appraisal rights with respect to the Offer. In the event that the Compulsory Acquisition is permissible under applicable law and implemented, the Dutch Court will determine in its sole discretion the price to be paid for thenon-tendered Shares, which price may be greater than, equal to or less than the Offer Consideration. Such price will be increased by Dutch Statutory Interest accrued at the rate applicable in the Netherlands (currently 2% per annum). Thenon-tendering Wright shareholders do not have the right to commence a Compulsory Acquisition proceeding to oblige Stryker or Purchaser to buy their Shares.

In the event the Merger Resolutions are adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, any Wright shareholder that votes against the Merger Resolutions may exercise its Merger Withdrawal Right by filing a request for compensation in accordance with Section 2:333h of the Dutch Civil Code and the Common Draft Terms of Merger within one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting or subsequent extraordinary general meeting at which the Merger Resolutions were adopted. If the Mergers are then implemented, such compensation would be paid in cash in connection with the consummation of the First-Step Merger. The Merger Resolutions include certain amendments to Wright’s articles of association that fix the cash compensation payable to any such Wright shareholders exercising the Merger Withdrawal Right at an amount per Share equal to the Offer Consideration without interest and less applicable withholding taxes.

Q: Who can help answer my questions?

THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

This proxy statement of Wright, which is first being mailed to holders of Shares on or about [●], 2020, is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of Wright, which asks you to vote promptly, and if voting by mail, to complete, sign, date and mail the enclosed proxy for use at the Extraordinary General Meeting, for the purposes set forth in the foregoing notice and agenda and the following explanation to the agenda.

Subject to certain restrictions under Dutch law, each Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. You may vote if you are the shareholder of record of Shares on the Record Date, even if you have previously tendered your Shares in the Offer. As of [●], 2020 the latest practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement, we had [●] Shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. The Wright Board has determined that the Register is the relevant register for determination, as of the Record Date, of the holders of Shares and others with meeting rights under Dutch law who are entitled to attend and, if relevant, vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Those who are holders of Shares or who otherwise have such meeting rights with respect to Shares on the Record Date and who are registered as such in the Register may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and, if relevant, vote at such meeting in person, or authorize a third party to attend and, if relevant, vote at the meeting on their behalf through the use of a proxy.

Resolutions by the Extraordinary General Meeting must be adopted by an absolute majority of votes cast, unless another standard of votes and/or a quorum is required by virtue of applicable law or our articles of association. Our articles of association require a general quorum of one third of the issued Shares (not including Shares on which, pursuant to our articles of association, no votes may be cast) present or represented at our Extraordinary General Meeting. In case the quorum is not met in the Extraordinary General Meeting, a second meeting may be convened at which the relevant resolutions—except for the resolutions included in Item 3 (the appointment of directors to the Wright Board upon binding nomination) and Item 9 (entry into and approval of the Mergers)—may be adopted without a quorum. The affirmative vote of an absolute majority of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting is required to adopt resolutions on the agenda items listed for resolution in this proxy statement, unless indicated otherwise in this proxy statement.

All Shares represented by proxies duly executed and received by us prior to the Voter Deadline will be voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting in accordance with the terms of the proxies. Proxy cards to vote Shares received after the Voter Deadline may be disregarded. A shareholder may revoke a proxy by delivering a written notice of revocation to our Secretary prior to the Voter Deadline, by submitting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date prior to the Voter Deadline or by attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting in person (with regard to which the attendance requirements set forth below apply).

For all proposals, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN.” Blank votes and invalid votes will be regarded as not having been cast. If you do not provide a valid proxy or otherwise vote your Shares held in your name and do not attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, your Shares will not be voted and your Shares will not be considered present or represented for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Abstentions will count for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Extraordinary General Meeting, but will not count as a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” each of the proposals listed for resolution in this proxy statement.

“Broker non votes” are Shares held by a broker, bank or other nominee that are present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting, but with respect to which the broker, bank or other nominee is not instructed by the beneficial owner of such Shares (e.g,. the “street name” holder) on how to vote on a particular proposal and the broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power on such proposal. Because brokers, banks and other nominees do not have discretionary voting authority with respect to

27

the proposals listed for resolution in this proxy statement, if a beneficial owner of Shares held in “street name” does not give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee with respect to any of these proposals, then those Shares will not be voted thereat. However, if there are any broker non votes, then such broker non votes will count for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Admittance of shareholders and acceptance of written voting proxies shall be governed by Dutch law. Only shareholders of record as of the Record Date, beneficial owners as of the Record Date, holders of valid proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting and other persons admitted by the chairman of the meeting may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. Persons who wish to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting must give notice in writing to the Wright Board of their intention to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting prior to [●], 2020. The notice must contain the name and the number of Shares the person will represent in the meeting. All attendees must be prepared to identify themselves with a valid proof of identity for admittance. The additional items that attendees must bring depend on whether they are shareholders of record, beneficial owners or proxy holders.

A shareholder of record who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring a valid proof of identity.

A person who holds a validly executed proxy entitling such person to vote on behalf of a shareholder of record and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring: (i) a valid proof of identity and (ii) the validly executed proxy naming such person as the proxy holder, signed by the shareholder of record.

A beneficial owner who holds Shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring: (i) a valid proof of identity and (ii) proof of beneficial ownership as of the Record Date (e.g., a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee that is the record owner of such beneficial owner’s Shares, a brokerage account statement or the voting instruction form provided by the broker).

A person who holds a validly executed proxy entitling such person to vote on behalf of a beneficial owner and who wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in person must bring: (i) a valid proof of identity, (ii) the validly executed proxy naming such person as the proxy holder, signed by the beneficial owner and (iii) proof of beneficial ownership of the relevant beneficial owner as of the Record Date (e.g., a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee that is the record owner of such beneficial owner’s Shares, a brokerage account statement or the voting instruction form provided by the broker).

Failure to provide the requested documents at the door or failure to comply with the procedures for the Extraordinary General Meeting may prevent shareholders from being admitted to the meeting.

As of [●], 2020 the latest practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement, Wright directors and executive officers beneficially owned and were entitled to vote, in the aggregate, [●] Shares (excluding any Shares that would be delivered upon exercise or conversion of stock options or other equity-based awards), which represented approximately [●]% of the outstanding Shares on such date. The directors and executive officers of Wright have informed Wright that they currently intend to vote all of their Shares “FOR” each of the proposals listed for resolution in this proxy statement.

Wright will bear the cost of soliciting proxies on the accompanying proxy card. Some of our directors, officers and regular employees may solicit proxies in person or by mail, telephone or fax, but will not receive any additional compensation for their services. We may reimburse banks, brokers and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation materials to beneficial owners of Shares. Wright has retained Morrow Sodali LLC, a proxy solicitation firm (the “Proxy Solicitor”), to assist in the solicitation of proxies in connection

28

with the Extraordinary General Meeting at a cost of approximately $20,000 plus expenses. We will also indemnify the Proxy Solicitor against losses arising out of its provision of these services on our behalf.

Shareholders and interested persons may communicate with the Wright Board or one or more directors by sending a letter addressed to the Wright Board or to any one or more directors in care of James A. Lightman, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Wright Medical Group N.V., Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, the Netherlands, (+ 31) 20521-4777.

Welcome and announcements.

ITEM 2 EXPLANATION OF THE OFFER (for discussion)

Stryker B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) organized under the laws of the Netherlands (“Purchaser”), and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker Corporation, a Michigan corporation (“Stryker”), has made an offer to purchase all of the outstanding ordinary shares, par value €0.03 per share, of Wright (the “Shares”) at a purchase price of $30.75 per Share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, to the holders thereof, payable in cash (such amount or any higher amount per Share paid pursuant to the Offer (as defined below), the “Offer Consideration”) pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated November 4, 2019 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Wright, Purchaser and Stryker, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an Offer to Purchase, dated December 13, 2019 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Letter of Transmittal” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”).

During the extraordinary general meeting of Wright to be held on [●], 2020 at Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, The Netherlands, at [●], local time (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), Wright will explain the terms of the Offer. For further information with respect to the material terms of the Offer, please see the information contained in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 48 as well as the Offer to Purchase and related documents prepared by Stryker and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule14D-9 and related documents prepared by Wright and filed with the SEC. Shareholders attending the Extraordinary General Meeting will be given the opportunity to provide their views on the Offer.

After consideration, the Board of Directors (bestuur) of Wright (the “Wright Board”) has unanimously, among other things, (a) determined that the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Offer, certain transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and Second Step Distribution and the Mergers (each as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) are in the best interests of Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders, (b) approved and adopted the Purchase Agreement and (c) resolved, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to recommend that Wright’s shareholders tender their Shares into the Offer and approve and adopt the matters to be proposed for consideration and approval by Wright’s shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the agenda items that have been putfor binding ornon-binding resolution on the agenda of this Extraordinary General Meeting.

31

ITEM 3 APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS TO THE WRIGHT BOARD (for resolution)

Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have agreed that, effective as of the time that all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as of the Acceptance Time (as defined below) are paid for by Purchaser (such time of payment, the “Offer Closing”), certain changes are to be made in the composition of the Wright Board.

Upon the Offer Closing, the Wright Board will be comprised of seven directors, five of whom have been designated by Stryker and Purchaser in writing and are set forth below in Item 3(a) up to and including Item 3(e) (the “Purchaser Directors”), and two of whom will be [●] and [●], who are independent directors currently serving on the Wright Board (the “Independent Directors”). The Independent Directors will, in accordance with Dutch practice, look after the corporate interest of Wright and the interests of all relevant stakeholders of Wright, including the interests of anynon-tendering shareholders of Wright, and will resign from the Wright Board upon the earliest of (i) such time after the Acceptance Time (as defined below), as Purchaser and its affiliates, in the aggregate, own 100% of the issued and outstanding Shares, including pursuant to the Mergers (as defined below) and (ii) the Second Step Distribution (as defined below) having been made and the Liquidation (as defined below) having been completed. “Acceptance Time” means the time at or as promptly as practicable following the Expiration Time (as defined below) (but in any event within two business days thereafter), that Purchaser accepts for payment. Unless the Offer is earlier terminated, the Offer will expire at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on February 27, 2020 (the “Expiration Time,” unless the Offer is extended in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, in which event “Expiration Time” will mean the latest time and date at which the Offer, as so extended by Purchaser, will expire).

As permitted under Dutch law and our articles of association, the Wright Board is authorized to make binding nominations for each open position on the Wright Board. The binding nature of the Wright Board’s nomination may be overridden by a vote oftwo-thirds of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting if suchtwo-thirds vote constitutes more thanone-half of our issued share capital (not including Shares on which, pursuant to Dutch law, no votes may be cast). Should the binding nature of the nomination be overridden, a new general meeting is called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Wright Board shall require a majority oftwo-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than half of the issued share capital. If a binding nomination only contains one nominee for a seat to be filled, a resolution on the nomination has the effect that such nominee is appointed, unless the binding nature of the nomination is overridden.

The Wright Board has made binding nominations (containing only one nominee for each seat to be filled) for the appointment of each Purchaser Director, effective as of the Offer Closing and for a term ending at the end of Wright’s second annual general meeting held after the date of the Offer Closing.

The information as required pursuant to our articles of association in respect of each Purchaser Director nominee is set forth below. Shares deemed beneficially owned by each Purchaser Director nominee as shown in the information below include (i) Shares held by immediate family members and (ii) Shares that can be acquired through stock options or other Wright equity awards exercisable through [●], 2020.

Adoption of each of the resolutions set forth in Item 3(a) up to and including Item 3(e) below (together the “Director Resolutions”) and the proposals set out under Items 4, 11, 12 and 13 (together with the Director Resolutions, the “Governance Resolutions”) is a condition to each of Stryker’s and Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for any Share validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (an “Offer Condition”). If the Governance Resolutions are not adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any adjournment, postponement or cancellation and reconvention thereof), the Offer Closing may not occur.

Each resolution for appointment is subject to and conditioned upon the occurrence of, and effective as of, the Offer Closing.

The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the conditional appointment of each of the Purchaser Directors set forth in this Item 3.

35

ITEM 6 APPROVAL OF THE ASSET SALE (for resolution)

Conditional approval of the sale, transfer and assumption of the business of Wright, including substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Wright, to or by Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser) (the “Asset Sale”) as required under article 2:107a of the Dutch Civil Code.

Except as described below, following the Acceptance Time, in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to) provide for a subsequent offering period of at least 10 business days in accordance with Rule14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act (the “Subsequent Offering Period”). In the event that prior to the expiration of any such Subsequent Offering Period, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Asset Sale, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to) extend the Subsequent Offering Period for at least five business days to permit any remaining minority shareholders to tender their Shares in exchange for the Offer Consideration (such extension, the “Minority Exit Offering Period”). In the event that promptly following the Expiration Time, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Mergers (as defined below), Purchaser will not be required to provide either a Subsequent Offering Period or Minority Exit Offering Period, but may do so if Purchaser chooses.

Following the later of the Offer Closing and the closing of any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period), Stryker or Purchaser intend to effectuate or cause to be effectuated a corporate reorganization of or involving Wright and its subsidiaries (the “Post-Offer Reorganization”). The Post-Offer Reorganization will utilize processes available to Purchaser under Dutch and other applicable law aimed at strengthening Stryker’s direct or indirect control over Wright or its assets and business operations. More specifically, the Asset Sale and Liquidation (as defined below) would ensure that Purchaser or one of its affiliates becomes the owner of all or substantially all of Wright’s business operations from and after the consummation of such Post-Offer Reorganization. In the event the Asset Sale and Liquidation are consummated Wright will be liquidated and cease to exist.

In the event Stryker or Purchaser elects to implement the Asset Sale, the Asset Sale will be implemented together with the Liquidation and the Second Step Distribution (each as defined in Item 7 of these explanatory notes to the agenda) in accordance with the terms of the asset sale agreement to be entered into by Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser), Stryker and Wright, attached hereto as Annex C. Reference is made to the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Certain Effects of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, beginning on page 48 for a more detailed description of the Asset Sale.

The approval of each of the Asset Sale (this Item 6), the Liquidation (Item 7) (together with this Item 6, the “Asset Sale Resolutions”), the Mergers (Item 9) and the Demerger (Item 10) will allow Wright to gain greater certainty that the Offer Closing will occur and that its relevant stakeholders will realize the benefits of the transactions contemplated thereby, as it lowers the threshold percentage for purposes of the Minimum Condition (an Offer Condition requiring that the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, and not properly withdrawn, together with the Shares then owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, represents at least a minimum percentage of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal)) from 95% to 80%. However, even if such resolutions are not approved, Purchaser may also, in its sole discretion, reduce the threshold percentage for purposes of the Minimum Condition from 95% to 80%.

The Asset Sale requires the approval of the general meeting pursuant to article 2:107a of the Dutch Civil Code.

The resolution approving the Asset Sale is conditioned upon, and subject to, (i) Purchaser’s election to implement the Asset Sale, (ii) the Acceptance Time having occurred and (iii) the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer and not properly withdrawn (including Shares tendered during the Subsequent

The Purchase Agreement provides that if Purchaser or Stryker determines to effectuate the Asset Sale, subject to the conditions explained below, as soon as practicable following the consummation of the Asset Sale, Wright shall be liquidated and dissolved (the “Liquidation”) in accordance with applicable Dutch procedures, which shall result in one or more advance liquidation distributions and a final liquidation distribution (collectively, the “Second Step Distribution”) being made, whereby the initial advance liquidation distribution is expected to result in payment, through a settlement agent, to eachnon-tendering Wright shareholder of an amount in cash equal to the Offer Consideration, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, for each Share then owned by suchnon-tendering Wright shareholder. Reference is made to the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Certain Effects of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, beginning on page 48 for a more detailed description of the Liquidation and the Second Step Distribution. For certain material Dutch tax consequences of the Liquidation and Second-Step Distribution, reference is made to the section of this proxy statement captioned “Certain Material Tax Consequences—Certain Dutch Tax Consequences,” beginning on page 115.

The approval of each of the Asset Sale Resolutions, the Mergers (Item 9) and the Demerger (Item 10) will allow Wright to gain greater certainty that the Offer Closing will occur and that its relevant stakeholders will realize the benefits of the transactions contemplated thereby, as it lowers the threshold percentage for purposes of the Minimum Condition (an Offer Condition requiring that the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, and not properly withdrawn, together with the Shares then owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, represents at least a minimum percentage of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal)) from 95% to 80%. However, even if such resolutions are not approved, Purchaser may also, in its sole discretion, reduce the threshold percentage for purposes of the Minimum Condition from 95% to 80%.

This resolution to dissolve Wright, appoint Stichting Vereffening Wright Medical Group as the liquidator of Wright, appoint [●] as the custodian of the books and records of Wright and approve the reimbursement by Wright of the liquidator’s reasonable salary and costs is conditioned upon, and subject to (i) Purchaser’s election to implement the Asset Sale, (ii) the Acceptance Time having occurred, (iii) the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer and not properly withdrawn (including Shares tendered during the Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period), together with the Shares owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, representing at least 80% of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal) and (iv) the Asset Sale having been completed. The Wright Board will determine the exact date and time as of which such conditions precedent have been fulfilled, pursuant to which the resolution to dissolve Wright shall become effective. The approval of the reimbursement by Wright of the liquidator’s reasonable salary and costs is further subject to and conditioned upon both of the Independent Directors having approved such reimbursement. Adoption of the Asset Sale Resolutions is not an Offer Condition. If the Asset Sale Resolutions are not adopted by shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any adjournment, postponement or cancellation and reconvention thereof), the Offer Closing may still occur.

The resolutions to (i) dissolve Wright, (ii) appoint Stichting Vereffening Wright Medical Group as the liquidator of Wright, (iii) appoint [●] as the custodian of the books and records of Wright and (iv) reimburse the liquidator’s reasonable salary and costs (subject to approval of such reimbursement by the Independent Directors) as set forth in this Item 6 must be adopted by an absolute majority of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting and will be subject to the conditions precedent set forth above.

ITEM 8 AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION REGARDING COMPENSATION OF DISSENTING SHAREHOLDERS (for resolution)

In the event the resolution to approve the Mergers (including the First-Step Merger, (as defined below)) is adopted by the general meeting, any Wright shareholder that votes against such resolution may exercise its withdrawal right under Dutch law in connection with the First-Step Merger by filing a request for compensation in accordance with Section 2:333h of the Dutch Civil Code and the common draft terms of the cross-border merger (the “Common Draft Terms of Merger”) within one (1) month after the date on which such resolution was adopted. If the Mergers are then implemented, such compensation would be paid in cash in connection with the consummation of the First-Step Merger (as defined below).

The Wright Board proposes to resolve to amend Wright’s articles of association to fix the amount of compensation that dissenting shareholders may claim in connection with the proposed Mergers at an amount equal to the Offer Consideration, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, and to authorize each member of the Wright Board, as well as each lawyer, (junior) civil law civil law notaries practicing at Stibbe N.V., Amsterdam, the Netherlands or Houthoff Coöperatief U.A., Amsterdam, the Netherlands (collectively, the “Authorized Notaries”) jointly and each of them individually, to execute the notarial deed of amendment to the articles of association and to undertake all other activities that any recipient of such authorization deems necessary or useful in connection therewith. For certain material Dutch tax consequences of the compensation of dissenting shareholders, reference is made to the section of this proxy statement captioned “Certain Material Tax Consequences—Certain Dutch Tax Consequences,” beginning on page 115.

Annex D to this proxy statement contains the notarial deed of amendment of Wright’s articles of association fixing the amount of compensation that dissenting shareholders may claim in connection with the proposed Mergers.

This amendment to Wright’s articles of association shall become effective upon the execution of the notarial deed of amendment to the articles of association and will be effectuated immediately prior to the adoption of the resolution approving the Mergers (including the First-Step Merger (as defined below)).

An absolute majority of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required to adopt the proposal to amend Wright’s articles of association, and authorize each member of the Wright Board as well as the Authorized Notaries both jointly and each of them individually, as set forth in this Item 8.

ITEM 9 ENTRY INTO AND APPROVAL OF THE MERGERS (for resolution)

Resolution to approve the Mergers.

As described under Item 6 above, following the later of the Offer Closing and the closing of any Subsequent Offering Period, Stryker or Purchaser intend to effectuate or cause to be effectuated a Post-Offer Reorganization, including the Mergers (as defined below). The Post-Offer Reorganization will utilize processes available to Purchaser under Dutch and other applicable law aimed at strengthening Stryker’s direct or indirect control over Wright or its assets and business operations, and would ensure that Purchaser or one of its affiliates becomes the owner of all or substantially all of Wright’s business operations from and after the consummation of such Post-Offer Reorganization. In the event that the Mergers are implemented, Wright will become an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker.

In the event that the Mergers are implemented as the Post-Offer Reorganization (for which Stryker has a preference), which is subject to (a) Purchaser’s election to implement the Mergers, (b) the approval of the Merger Resolutions by Wright shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting), and (c) the Acceptance Time having occurred and the Reorganization Threshold having been achieved, Wright and Purchaser will complete a series of mergers whereby (i) Wright will merge with and into a Luxembourgsociété anonyme that is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wright (“Wright Luxembourg”) with Wright Luxembourg surviving the merger (the “First-Step Merger”), (ii) Wright Luxembourg will merge with and into a Bermuda exempted company that is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wright Luxembourg (“Wright Bermuda”) with Wright Bermuda surviving the merger (the “Second-Step Merger”) and (iii) a Bermuda exempted company formed by Stryker as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser will merge with and into Wright Bermuda with Wright Bermuda surviving the merger (the “Third-Step Merger” and, together with the First-Step Merger and the Second-Step Merger, the “Mergers”). Upon completion of the Mergers, any Wright shareholders who did not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer will no longer have any equity interest in the surviving entities from such Mergers and will ultimately receive, for each Share held immediately prior to the completion of the First-Step Merger, cash in an amount equal to the Offer Consideration. Such amount would be without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. Stryker and Purchaser have no current intention to require the deduction and withholding of any amounts under any tax law in respect of any amounts payable upon completion of the Mergers to any Wright shareholders who did not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer and who do not exercise its withdrawal right under Dutch law in connection with the First-Step Merger (a “Merger Withdrawal Right”), but such tax deduction and withholding will take place to the extent required under applicable tax law.

In the event that a Wright shareholder exercises a Merger Withdrawal Right, then any cash compensation paid to such withdrawing Wright shareholder will be subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) at the statutory rate of 15% to the extent that the amount of the cash compensation exceeds the averagepaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes (which amount may be subject to an advance tax clearance by the Dutch tax authorities on the amount ofpaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes) subject to any exemption, reduction or refund that may be available to such withdrawing Wright shareholder. As a result, the net amount received by such withdrawing Wright shareholder may be lower than the amount that they would have received had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period). No compensation will be paid tonon-tendering Wright shareholders for any administrative costs charged by banks in relation to the transfer of the cash proceeds of the Third-Step Merger to their bank account or otherwise.

In the event Stryker or Purchaser elects to implement the Mergers, the Mergers will be implemented subject to the terms of the Merger Documentation (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Reference is made to the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Certain Effects of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 48 for a more detailed description of the Mergers.

41

The approval of each of the Asset Sale Resolutions, the Merger Resolutions and the Demerger (Item 10) will allow Wright to gain greater certainty that the Offer Closing will occur and that its relevant stakeholders will realize the benefits of the transactions contemplated thereby, as it lowers the threshold percentage for purposes of the Minimum Condition (an Offer Condition requiring that the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, and not properly withdrawn, together with the Shares then owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, represents at least a minimum percentage of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal)) from 95% to 80%. However, even if such resolutions are not approved, Purchaser may also, in its sole discretion, reduce the threshold percentage for purposes of the Minimum Condition from 95% to 80%.

The Wright Board proposes (A) to resolve, in accordance with the Common Draft Terms of Merger that was signed on [●], 2020 by the Wright Board and the management board of Wright Luxembourg, that Wright will merge with and into Wright Luxembourg pursuant to Title X, Chapter II of the Luxembourg Company Law and Section 2:309 et seq. and Section 2:333b et seq. Dutch Civil Code, as a result of which all the assets and liabilities of Wright will be transferred to Wright Luxembourg by universal succession of title and Wright shall cease to exist and (B) to approve the Second-Step Merger and Third-Step Merger.

The implementation of the resolution resolving on the First-Step Merger (and approving the Mergers) is conditioned upon, and subject to, (i) the Acceptance Time having occurred and (ii) the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer and not properly withdrawn (including Shares tendered during the Subsequent Offering Period, together with the Shares owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, represents at least 80% of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal). Approval of the Merger Resolutions is not an Offer Condition. If the Merger Resolutions are not approved by shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any adjournment, postponement or cancellation and reconvention thereof), the Offer Closing may still occur.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Extraordinary General Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required to approve the First-Step Merger if at least 50% of the issued share capital of Wright is represented, either in person or by proxy, at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If less than 50% of the issued share capital of Wright is represented, either in person or by proxy, at the Extraordinary General Meeting,two-thirds of the votes cast is required to approve the Mergers.

The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the proposal to approve the Mergers (including the First-Step Merger) as set forth in this Item 9.

Certain Effects of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement

The Offer was commenced on December 13, 2019, pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Unless the Offer is earlier terminated, the Offer

48

will expire at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on February 27, 2020 (the “Expiration Time,” unless the Offer is extended in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, in which event “Expiration Time” will mean the latest time and date at which the Offer, as so extended by Purchaser, will expire).

Purchaser may extend the Offer to such other date and time as may be agreed in writing by Wright and Stryker, and will extend the Offer for the minimum period required by applicable law, rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the rules of Nasdaq. Purchaser will also extend the Offer on one or more occasions in consecutive periods of up to 10 business days each if, at the then-scheduled Expiration Time, any condition to the Offer has not been satisfied or waived, in order to permit satisfaction of such condition, or for periods of up to 20 business days in case of the Regulatory Clearance Condition (as defined below) if such condition is not reasonably likely to be satisfied within such10 business-day extension period. Purchaser may, but will not be required to, extend the Offer (a) on more than two occasions in consecutive periods of 10 business days each, if the only remaining unsatisfied condition to the Offer is the Minimum Condition (as defined below) and (b) to the business day immediately following the date that is one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting (as defined below) or subsequent extraordinary general meeting at which the Merger Resolutions (as defined below) are approved. Purchaser is not required to, and cannot without the consent of Wright, extend the Offer beyond November 4, 2020 (subject to automatic extension to February 4, 2021 if, at such earlier date, all conditions to the closing of the Offer have been satisfied or waived, other than the Regulatory Clearance Condition (as defined below) and the Minimum Condition (as defined below)).

The Purchase Agreement provides, among other things, that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to), (a) at or as promptly as practicable following the Expiration Time (but in any event within two business days thereafter), accept for payment (the time of acceptance for payment, the “Acceptance Time”) and (b) at or as promptly as practicable following the Acceptance Time (but in any event within two business days (calculated as set forth in Rule14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) thereafter), pay for all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as of the Acceptance Time (such time of payment, the “Offer Closing”). It is expected that following the Offer Closing, the listing of the Shares on Nasdaq will be terminated, Wright will no longer be a publicly traded company and the Shares will be deregistered under the Exchange Act, resulting in the cessation of Wright’s reporting obligations with respect to the Shares with the SEC.

Following the Acceptance Time, except as described below, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to) provide for a subsequent offering period of at least 10 business days in accordance with Rule14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement (the “Subsequent Offering Period”). In the event that prior to the expiration of any such Subsequent Offering Period, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Asset Sale, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to) extend the Subsequent Offering Period for at least five business days to permit any remaining minority shareholders to tender their Shares in exchange for $30.75 per Share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, to the holders thereof, payable in cash (the “Offer Consideration”) (such extension, the “Minority Exit Offering Period”). In the event that promptly following the Expiration Time, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Mergers (as defined below), Purchaser will not be required to provide either a Subsequent Offering Period or Minority Exit Offering Period, but may do so if Purchaser chooses.Under no circumstance will interest be paid on the Offer Consideration paid pursuant to the Offer, regardless of any extension of the Offer, any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) or any delay in making payment for Shares.

Following the later of the Offer Closing and the closing of any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period), Stryker or Purchaser intend to effectuate or cause to be effectuated a corporate reorganization of or involving Wright and its subsidiaries (the “Post-Offer

49

Reorganization”). The Post-Offer Reorganization will utilize processes available to Purchaser under Dutch and other applicable law aimed at strengthening Stryker’s direct or indirect control over Wright or its assets and business operations. More specifically, the Asset Sale (as defined below) and Liquidation (as defined below), the Mergers (as defined below) and the Compulsory Acquisition (as defined below) would ensure that Purchaser or one of its affiliates becomes the owner of all or substantially all of Wright’s business operations from and after the consummation of such Post-Offer Reorganization. In the event the Asset Sale and Liquidation, the Mergers or the Compulsory Acquisition (as defined below) are consummated, Wright will either be liquidated, disappear or become wholly owned by Purchaser.

In the event that the Asset Sale and Liquidation is implemented, which is subject to (a) the approval of the Asset Sale Resolutions by Wright shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting of Wright to be held on [●], 2020 at Prins Bernhardplein 200, 1097 JB Amsterdam, The Netherlands, at [●], local time (the “Extraordinary General Meeting” (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) and (b) the Acceptance Time having occurred and the number of Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer and not properly withdrawn (including Shares tendered during the Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period), together with the Shares owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, representing at least 80% of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal) (the “Reorganization Threshold”), any Wright shareholders who did not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during the Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) will receive for each Share held immediately prior to completion of the Asset Sale cash in an amount equal to the Offer Consideration, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. Upon consummation of the Asset Sale: (a) Wright will hold only the cash received in the Asset Sale and certain other immaterial assets and liabilities; (b) Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser) will (i) own all of Wright’s business operations and (ii) be the principal shareholder in Wright; and (c) thenon-tendering Wright shareholders will continue to own Shares representing, in the aggregate, a minority of the Shares then outstanding. As soon as practicable following consummation of the sale, transfer and assumption of the business of Wright, including substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Wright, to or by Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser) (the “Asset Sale”), the liquidator of Wright would then complete the liquidation and dissolution of Wright (the “Liquidation”) in accordance with applicable Dutch procedures, with Purchaser (or an affiliate of Purchaser) providing certain funds and indemnities to enable the liquidator to make an immediate advance liquidation distribution (the “Second Step Distribution”) to a settlement agent on behalf of eachnon-tendering Wright shareholder of an amount in cash for each Share held immediately prior to the completion of the Asset Sale equal to the Offer Consideration, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, for each Share then owned by suchnon-tendering Wright shareholder. No compensation will be paid tonon-tendering Wright shareholders for any administrative costs charged by banks in relation to the transfer of the Second Step Distribution to their bank account or otherwise.

In the event that the Mergers are implemented, which is subject to (a) the approval of the Merger Resolutions by Wright shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) and (b) the Acceptance Time having occurred and the Reorganization Threshold having been achieved, Wright and Purchaser will complete a series of mergers whereby (i) Wright will merge with and into a Luxembourgsociété anonyme that is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wright (“Wright Luxembourg”) with Wright Luxembourg surviving the merger (the “First-Step Merger”), (ii) Wright Luxembourg will merge with and into a Bermuda exempted company that is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wright Luxembourg (“Wright Bermuda”) with Wright Bermuda surviving the merger (the “Second-Step Merger”) and (iii) a Bermuda exempted company formed by Stryker as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser will merge with and into Wright Bermuda with Wright Bermuda surviving the merger (the “Third-Step Merger” and, together with the First-Step Merger and the Second-Step Merger, the “Mergers”). Upon completion of the Mergers, any Wright shareholders who did not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer will no longer have any equity interest in the surviving entities from such Mergers and will ultimately receive, for each Share held immediately prior to the completion of the First Step Merger, cash in an amount equal to the Offer Consideration. Such amount would be without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. Stryker and Purchaser have no current intention to require the deduction and withholding of any amounts under any tax law in respect of any amounts payable upon

50

completion of the Mergers to any Wright shareholders who did not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer and who do not exercise any Merger Withdrawal Right (as defined below), but such tax deduction and withholding will take place to the extent required under applicable tax law. In the event that a Wright shareholder exercises a Merger Withdrawal Right, then any cash compensation paid to such withdrawing Wright shareholder will be subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) at the statutory rate of 15% to the extent that the amount of the cash compensation exceeds the averagepaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes (which amount may be subject to an advance tax clearance by the Dutch tax authorities on the amount ofpaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes) subject to any exemption, reduction or refund that may be available to such withdrawing Wright shareholder. As a result, the net amount received by such withdrawing Wright shareholder may be lower than the amount that they would have received had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period).

Upon completion of the Mergers, Wright will be an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker. No compensation will be paid tonon-tendering Wright shareholders for any administrative costs charged by banks in relation to the transfer of the cash proceeds of the Third-Step Merger to their bank account or otherwise.

In the event that a compulsory acquisition procedure (uitkoopprocedure) ofnon-tendered Shares as provided by Dutch law (the “Compulsory Acquisition”) is permissible under applicable law and implemented, then Shares held bynon-tendering Wright shareholders will be acquired in accordance with Section 2:92a or Section 2:201a of the Dutch Civil Code. In that circumstance, the Enterprise Chamber (Ondernemingskamer) of the Amsterdam Court of Appeals (Gerechtshof Amsterdam) (the “Dutch Court”) will determine the price to be paid for thenon-tendered Shares. The Dutch Court has sole discretion to determine such price, and the Dutch Court will select a reference date on which to value the Shares for purposes of determining such price (the “Reference Date”). If the Compulsory Acquisition is commenced shortly following the Offer Closing and at the Offer Closing the Purchaser and its affiliates hold 95% of Wright’s issued and outstanding capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal) (the “Compulsory Acquisition Threshold”), it is expected that the Reference Date will be the date of the Offer Closing and that the per Share price paid in the Compulsory Acquisition will be equal to the Offer Consideration. If Purchaser has not achieved the Compulsory Acquisition Threshold at the time of the Offer Closing but does so shortly afterwards and then commences the Compulsory Acquisition, the Dutch Court will generally use as a Reference Date the earlier of (i) the date on which Purchaser demonstrates it has achieved the Compulsory Acquisition Threshold and (ii) the date on which the Dutch Court renders an interim judgment preliminarily allowing the claim for the Compulsory Acquisition. The Share price determined by the Dutch Court may be greater than, equal to or less than the Offer Consideration. Such price will be increased by Dutch Statutory Interest accrued at the rate applicable in the Netherlands (currently 2% per annum) from the Reference Date. The end of the period for the calculation of the Dutch Statutory Interest would be the date Purchaser pays for the Shares then owned by thenon-tendering Wright shareholders (whether directly or through a payment made to the relevant governmental authority in the Netherlands). Upon execution (tenuitvoerlegging) of the Dutch Court’s ruling in the Compulsory Acquisition, eachnon-tendering Wright shareholder will receive the per Share price determined by the Dutch Court and Purchaser will become the sole shareholder of Wright. If payment by Purchaser is made to the relevant governmental authority in the Netherlands, rather than directly tonon-tendering Wright shareholders, such shareholders may only seek their consideration directly from such governmental authority in the Netherlands. Upon completion of the Compulsory Acquisition, Wright will be an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker. No compensation will be paid tonon-tendering Wright shareholders for any administrative costs charged by banks in relation to the transfer of the cash proceeds of the Compulsory Acquisition to their bank account or otherwise.

The applicable withholding taxes and other taxes, if any, imposed onnon-tendering Wright shareholders in respect of any Post-Offer Reorganization may be different from, and greater than, the taxes imposed upon such Wright shareholders had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period, as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period).

51

It is possible that Purchaser may not be able to, or may elect not to, implement any proposed Post-Offer Reorganization after the consummation of the Offer, or that such Post-Offer Reorganization may be delayed or unable to be completed. Any Post-Offer Reorganization could be the subject of litigation, and a court could delay the Post-Offer Reorganization or prohibit it from occurring on the terms described in the Offer to Purchase, or from occurring at all. Moreover, even if Purchaser is able to effect any proposed Post-Offer Reorganization, the consideration that Wright shareholders receive therefrom may be different than the consideration that they would have received had they tendered their Shares in the Offer (and they may also be subject to increased or additional taxes).

Following completion of the Offer, the Board of Directors (bestuur) of Wright (the “Wright Board”) will be comprised of seven directors, at least five of whom have been designated in writing by Stryker and Purchaser and who are Spencer S. Stiles, William E. Berry, Jr., Dean H. Bergy, Jeanne M. Blondia and David G. Furgason, and at least two of whom are currentnon-executive directors of Wright designated by Wright and Purchaser by mutual written agreement and who will at all times be independent from Stryker and Purchaser and qualify as independent under the Dutch Corporate Governance Code 2008 (the “Independent Directors”), and who are [●] and [●].

The two Independent Directors will, in accordance with Dutch practice, look after the corporate interest of Wright and the interests of all stakeholders of Wright, including the interests of anynon-tendering shareholders of Wright.

Each Independent Director will resign from the Wright Board upon the earliest of (a) such time after the Acceptance Time as Purchaser and its affiliates, in the aggregate, own 100% of the issued and outstanding Shares, including pursuant to the Mergers and (b) the Second Step Distribution having been made and the Liquidation having been completed.

The affirmative vote of the Independent Directors will be required for approving (a) any restructuring that would reasonably be expected to lead to a dilution of the shareholdings of thenon-tendering Wright shareholders, other than (i) pursuant to a rights issue by Wright or any other share issue where thenon-tendering Wright shareholders have been offered an opportunity to subscribe pro rata to their then existing shareholding in Wright (voorkeursrecht), (ii) the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and the Second Step Distribution, (iii) the Mergers or (iv) the Compulsory Acquisition and (b) any other form of unequal treatment that prejudices or would reasonably be expected to prejudice or negatively affect the value of the Shares or voting rights attached to the Shares held by thenon-tendering Wright shareholders, but in any event not including (i) the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and the Second Step Distribution, (ii) the Mergers or (iii) the Compulsory Acquisition.

The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, (a) the Purchase Agreement not having been terminated pursuant to its terms and (b) the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement and applicable law) of the following as of the scheduled Expiration Time: (i) the Minimum Condition; (ii) the Regulatory Clearance Condition; (iii) the Legal Restraints Condition; (iv) the Governance Resolutions Condition; and (v) the Material Adverse Effect Condition, each as defined below.

The “Minimum Condition” requires that there have been validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, and not properly withdrawn, a number of Shares (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in settlement or satisfaction of such guarantee prior to the Expiration Time) that, together with the Shares then owned by Stryker or its wholly-owned subsidiaries, represents at least 95% of Wright’s issued and outstanding share capital (geplaatst en uitstaand kapitaal) immediately prior to the Expiration Time, provided that, Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, reduce the required threshold to a percentage not less than 80%, provided, further, that if, prior to the Expiration Time, the Asset Sale Resolutions, the Merger Resolutions and the Demerger Resolution are adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, the required threshold will be reduced to 80%.

52

The “Regulatory Clearance Condition” requires the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period (and extensions thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), and certain other applicable regulatory or antitrust laws, and the receipt of any relevant approvals, consents or waivers obtained pursuant to such laws, which, in each case, do not impose a condition or require a remedy that Stryker is not required to accept or agree to under the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

The “Legal Restraints Condition” requires that there is no law, regulation, judgment, injunction, order, decree or ruling (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) entered, enacted, promulgated, enforced or issued by any court or other governmental body of competent jurisdiction in effect that prohibits, renders illegal or enjoins, the consummation of the Offer, the Asset Sale, the Compulsory Acquisition, the Liquidation, the Second Step Distribution, the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or that imposes a condition or requires a remedy that Stryker is not required to accept or agree to under the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

The “Governance Resolutions Condition” requires that, at the Extraordinary General Meeting or a subsequent extraordinary general meeting, Wright shareholders have adopted the Governance Resolutions.

The “Material Adverse Effect Condition” requires that no change, effect, event, inaccuracy, occurrence or other matter has occurred following the date of the Purchase Agreement that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Wright Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

The Offer is not subject to a financing condition but is subject to other conditions as described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Certain Effects of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 48.

Effect on Wright if the Offer is Not Completed

If the Offer is not completed, Wright shareholders will not receive the Offer Consideration pursuant to the Offer and the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals will have no effect. Instead, Wright would remain an independent public company, your Shares would continue to be listed and traded on Nasdaq and registered under the Exchange Act and Wright would continue to file periodic reports with the SEC.

In the event of certain terminations of the Purchase Agreement, Wright will be required to pay Stryker a termination fee in an amount equal to $150 million as described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Termination Fee,” beginning on page 99.

Offer Consideration

If you tender your Shares in the Offer, upon completion of the Offer, you will be entitled to receive the Offer Consideration of $30.75 per Share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, payable in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Offer to Purchase. For example, if you own 100 Shares, you will receive $3,075 in cash in exchange for your Shares, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Offer to Purchase. If you are the record owner of your Shares and you tender your Shares directly to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Depositary”), you will not have to pay brokerage fees, commissions, or similar expenses. If you own your Shares through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee and your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee tenders your Shares on your behalf, your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or nominee may charge you a fee for doing so. You should consult your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or nominee to determine whether any charges will apply.

Background of the Offer

The following chronology summarizes the key contacts and events between representatives of Wright and representatives of Stryker, and between representatives of Wright and representatives of other potential parties to a strategic transaction during the period preceding the signing of the Purchase Agreement. The following description does not purport to catalogue every conversation among representatives of Wright, Stryker or other third parties. For a review of Stryker’s additional key activities that led to the signing of the Purchase Agreement, please refer to the Schedule TO and Offer to Purchase.

The Wright Board, along with Wright’s management, regularly reviews Wright’s operations, financial condition and performance, capital structure, and long-term strategic plans. As part of this ongoing review, the Wright Board has regularly considered a variety of options to maximize shareholder value and benefit other stakeholders of Wright, including acquisitions, dispositions, and other financial and strategic alternatives, considering, in each instance, Wright’s business strategy, changes in the industry in which Wright operates, and execution risks.

On March 22, 2019, Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s President and Chief Executive Officer, met with the Chief Executive Officer of a large medical device company, which we refer to as Party A. During the meeting, the Chief Executive Officer of Party A stated that Party A was interested in a potential strategic transaction with Wright, but did not propose a price, structure or other terms of a potential transaction. Following the meeting, the Chief Executive Officer of Party A sent a message to Mr. Palmisano emphasizing Party A’s interest in Wright.

On March 24, 2019, Mr. Palmisano and Lance A. Berry, Wright’s Executive Vice President, Chief Financial and Operations Officer, played golf with Kevin A. Lobo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Stryker, and Gordon Van Ummersen, Vice President and General Manager, Extremities of Stryker. During the game, Mr. Lobo stated to Mr. Palmisano that Stryker was evaluating potential business development opportunities and may contact Wright in the summer of 2019 to discuss a potential strategic transaction. Mr. Lobo did not provide any further details about a potential transaction, including price, structure or other terms.

On June 10, 2019, the Chief Executive Officer of Party A contacted Mr. Palmisano to request a meeting to continue the prior discussions about Party A’s interest in Wright.

On June 21, 2019, Mr. Palmisano and Jason D. Asper, Wright’s Senior Vice President, Chief Digital Officer and head of business development, met with the Chief Executive Officer and another representative of Party A. During the meeting, the Chief Executive Officer of Party A expressed interest in acquiring only certain of Wright’s product lines, and explained that Party A would only pursue an acquisition of the entire company if it could first identify a partner that would acquire the portion of Wright’s business that Party A was not prepared to acquire. Additionally, the Chief Executive Officer of Party A noted that Party A would require additional financing to fund an acquisition of all or part of Wright. The parties agreed that they would enter into a confidentiality agreement after which Wright would provide certainnon-public information regarding its business to assist Party A’s evaluation of a potential transaction.

On June 26, 2019, Wright and Party A entered into a confidentiality agreement, which did not contain a standstill provision.

On July 16, 2019, Mr. Lobo contacted Mr. Palmisano to propose a meeting to discuss Stryker’s current analysis of Wright. Mr. Lobo stated that he would not be making an offer during the meeting.

On July 26, 2019, the Wright Board held a regularly scheduled,in-person meeting, a portion of which was attended by representatives of Guggenheim Securities, LLC (“Guggenheim Securities”), a financial advisor to Wright. During the meeting, representatives of Guggenheim Securities made a presentation about strategic alternatives for Wright, including a potential sale of Wright, and market conditions. The representatives also responded to questions from the Wright Board about potential business development opportunities.

54

On July 31, 2019, representatives of a large multinational corporation, which we refer to as Party B, met with Messrs. Palmisano and Berry to discuss potential collaborations. Party B did not express interest in an acquisition of Wright at that time. Between July 31 and September 5, 2019, representatives of Wright and Party B had multiple calls to discuss potential collaborations and to negotiate the terms of a confidentiality agreement that was not ultimately executed.

On August 7, 2019, after the close of trading on Nasdaq, Wright reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, which had not previously been discussed with Stryker, Party A or Party B. On August 8, 2019, Wright’s stock price dropped approximately 21.5%.

Also on August 7, 2019, Wright provided Party A with access to an electronic data room that included limitednon-public information about Wright. Between August 7 and September 9, 2019, representatives of Wright had periodic calls with a representative of Party A regarding diligence.

On August 12, 2019, Mr. Palmisano and Mr. Lobo held a breakfast meeting. During the meeting, Mr. Lobo confirmed his earlier statement that Stryker would not make an offer to acquire Wright at that time and noted Stryker’s concerns about Wright’s financial performance and projections. Mr. Palmisano suggested that a meeting between the companies’ respective chief financial officers could help Stryker better understand Wright’s longer-term financial outlook. Later that day, Mr. Palmisano updated Mr. Berry about the meeting with Mr. Lobo, explaining that Stryker was not interested in acquiring Wright at that time, but that Mr. Lobo had agreed that a meeting between Mr. Berry and Glenn Boehnlein, Stryker’s Chief Financial Officer, might be useful.

On August 16, 2019, the Chief Executive Officer of a multinational medical device company, which we refer to as Party C, placed an unsolicited call to Mr. Palmisano to propose a meeting the following week to discuss their respective businesses and the industry. Party C’s Chief Executive Officer did not mention a potential transaction during the call.

On August 22, 2019, Mr. Palmisano and the Chief Executive Officer of Party C met for dinner. During the meeting, the Chief Executive Officer of Party C informed Mr. Palmisano that Party C had completed significant diligence on Wright based on public information and was interested in acquiring Wright. He did not propose a price or other terms for a transaction. They agreed to set up a meeting between certain members of Wright’s and Party C’s respective management teams so that Party C could learn more about Wright.

On August 30, 2019, in anticipation of a meeting among certain members of their management teams, Wright and Party C entered into a confidentiality agreement, which included a12-month standstill provision that terminated upon the effectiveness of the Purchase Agreement.

On September 4, 2019, representatives of a large multinational medical device company, which we refer to as Party D, expressed interest in meeting with representatives of Wright at the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society’s annual meeting in Chicago, Illinois in September 2019 to discuss potential business development opportunities. A meeting was tentatively scheduled but never took place.

On September 5, 2019, the Wright Board held a telephonic meeting that was attended by members of Wright management. During the meeting, Mr. Palmisano updated the Wright Board about discussions with third parties that had occurred since the July 26, 2019 Wright Board meeting (including the unsolicited call from andfollow-up dinner meeting with Party C’s Chief Executive Officer), and the members of the Wright Board and management discussed the upcoming meeting with Party C.

On September 6, 2019, Messrs. Palmisano, Berry and Asper held anin-person meeting with the Chief Executive Officer and other representatives of Party C in Boston, Massachusetts. During the meeting, Wright’s management presented about Wright and responded to diligence questions from Party C. The representatives of Party C confirmed Party C’s interest in acquiring Wright and stated that it would soon submit a written proposal.

55

On September 9, 2019, Messrs. Berry and Asper, attended a previously scheduled dinner meeting with Mr. Boehnlein and Katherine Owen, Stryker’s Vice President, Strategy and Investor Relations, during which they discussed Wright’s publicly disclosed financial results and projections.

On September 10, 2019, the Chief Executive Officer of Party C called Mr. Palmisano to confirm Party C’s interest in acquiring Wright and said that Party C would submit anon-binding indication of interest the following day, the key terms of which he summarized.

On September 11, 2019, Party C sent Mr. Palmisano anon-binding indication of interest (the “September 11 Letter”) proposing to acquire Wright for $29.00 per share, 75% of which would be in cash and 25% of which would be in Party C equity. The September 11 Letter also requested an exclusive negotiating period lasting until October 30, 2019 with an automatic extension of 14 days if both parties were working in good faith towards the execution of a definitive transaction agreement.

On September 11, 2019, following receipt of the September 11 Letter, Mr. Palmisano called Mr. Lobo to inform him that Wright had received a written proposal to acquire Wright and suggested that if Stryker was interested in acquiring Wright, it should submit a proposal prior to a September 19, 2019 meeting of the Wright Board. Mr. Lobo told Mr. Palmisano that he appreciated the call but that Stryker remained unlikely to make an offer at this time. Mr. Lobo did, however, commit to discuss a potential transaction internally and respond.

Also on September 11, 2019, following receipt of the September 11 Letter, during a previously scheduledin-person meeting regarding unrelated topics, representatives of Guggenheim Securities, at the direction of Mr. Palmisano, informed Party B that Wright had received an acquisition proposal from a third party. Also at the direction of Mr. Palmisano, the representatives of Guggenheim Securities suggested that Party B submit a proposal prior to the Wright Board’s September 19, 2019 meeting if it was interested in acquiring Wright. Separately, at the direction of Mr. Palmisano, representatives of Guggenheim Securities also contacted representatives of Party D to advise them that Wright had received an acquisition proposal from a third party and provided substantially similar guidance with respect to submitting an acquisition proposal as provided to Party B.

On September 12, 2019, the Wright Board held a telephonic meeting with members of Wright management and representatives of Guggenheim Securities in attendance. During the meeting, Mr. Palmisano advised the Wright Board that the previous day Party C had delivered to Wright anon-binding written proposal to acquire Wright and he summarized its key economic terms. Mr. Palmisano also updated the Wright Board on the status of discussions with other third parties, including his conversation with Mr. Lobo the previous evening and Guggenheim’s conversations with Parties B and D, about which the Guggenheim Securities representatives elaborated. Mr. Palmisano further advised the Wright Board that he had a call scheduled for later that day with the Chief Executive Officer of Party A, during which he intended to deliver substantially the same message he had delivered to Mr. Lobo the previous evening. The Wright Board discussed with Wright management and representatives of Guggenheim Securities the possibility of contacting additional parties to assess their interest in pursuing a transaction with Wright, including the risks and benefits of such outreach, and the probability of success. Following the discussion, the Wright Board directed Mr. Palmisano to inform Party C that the Wright Board was evaluating its proposal and intended to respond following a meeting on September 19, 2019. The Guggenheim Securities representatives then outlined a proposed bidding process in the event any parties in addition to Party C expressed an interest in acquiring Wright. The Guggenheim representatives then departed the meeting. After the representatives of Guggenheim Securities departed the meeting, the Wright Board discussed formally engaging Guggenheim Securities as a financial advisor to Wright. The Wright Board noted Guggenheim Securities’ existing relationship with Wright and its extensive experience with medical device companies and mergers and acquisitions, and noted Guggenheim Securities’ report of past work for, and other relationships with, Wright and potential counterparties. After discussion, the Wright Board authorized management to negotiate and execute an engagement letter with Guggenheim Securities.

On September 12, 2019, following the Wright Board meeting, at the request of the Wright Board, Mr. Palmisano sent an email to the Chief Executive Officer of Party C to inform him that the Wright Board had

56

reviewed the September 11 Letter and intended to discuss it further on September 19, 2019 after which Mr. Palmisano would provide a more complete response.

Also on September 12, 2019, following the Wright Board meeting, Mr. Palmisano spoke with the Chief Executive Officer of Party A and delivered the message Mr. Palmisano described during the Wright Board meeting.

On September 18, 2019, Mr. Lobo called Mr. Palmisano and informed him that after internal deliberations, Stryker proposed to acquire Wright for $30.00 per share in cash, but Mr. Lobo did not propose additional terms for a potential transaction. That same day, Party A informed Guggenheim Securities that it would not be able to submit a proposal to acquire Wright without a partner, and Party B and Party D each informed Guggenheim Securities that it would not submit a proposal at this time.

On September 19, 2019, the Wright Board held a telephonic meeting attended by members of Wright management and representatives of Guggenheim Securities. During the meeting, Mr. Palmisano and representatives of Guggenheim Securities reported on their recent interactions with potential counterparties, including Stryker’s proposal and the decisions of Party A, Party B and Party D not to make proposals at this time. The Wright Board discussed the status of the transaction process and, following discussion, the Wright Board determined to continue discussions with Stryker and Party C and instructed management to makenon-public information about Wright available to those parties following execution of an appropriate confidentiality agreement by Stryker.

On September 22, 2019, Wright and Stryker entered into a confidentiality agreement, which included a12-month standstill provision.

On September 24, 2019, Wright provided Stryker and Party C access to an electronic data room that includednon-public information about Wright. Between September 24, 2019 and October 18, 2019, representatives of Wright held separatein-person diligence meetings and calls with representatives of Stryker and Party C regarding various aspects of Wright’s business. Wright and its representatives also hosted visits at certain of its facilities, and responded to extensive diligence requests, from representatives of Stryker and Party C.

On September 25, 2019, Wright sent letters to Stryker and Party C outlining Wright’s process for evaluating a potential transaction, including that final price proposals would be due on October 24, 2019.

On each of September 27, 2019 and October 3, 2019, representatives of Ropes & Gray LLP (“Ropes & Gray”), outside counsel to Wright, and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP (“Skadden”), outside counsel to Stryker, held telephonic meetings to discuss the structure of a potential transaction.

On October 3, 2019, Wright entered into an engagement letter with Guggenheim Securities.

Between October 7 and 9, 2019, representatives of Wright met separately with representatives of Stryker and Party C in Boston, Massachusetts to make presentations about Wright and to hold diligence sessions focused on specific functional areas of Wright.

On October 8, 2019, Ropes & Gray distributed a draft purchase agreement to Stryker and Party C. The draft agreement included, among other things, a termination fee payable by Wright in certain circumstances equal to 1% of Wright’s equity value and a commitment by the acquiror to take all actions necessary to obtain regulatory clearances for the transaction.

On October 18, 2019, the Wright Board held a telephonic meeting with Wright management and representatives of Guggenheim Securities and Ropes & Gray in attendance. Mr. Palmisano provided an update on the status of the diligence process, summarized recent interactions with the potential counterparties and previewed the next steps of the process, including the anticipated receipt of draft purchase agreements and financial proposals from Stryker and Party C the following week.

57

On October 20, 2019, a representative of Party C called Mr. Palmisano to notify him of an announcement Party C would make the following day. Following that announcement on October 21, 2019, the Chairman of Party C’s Board of Directors called Mr. Palmisano to inform him that, although Party C remained interested in a potential transaction, in light of its announcement, it would be a challenge for Party C to submit a proposal to acquire Wright on the schedule proposed by Wright. The Chairman of Party C’s Board of Directors did not indicate that Party C would not submit a proposal and said that Party C would contact Wright with an update later in the week.

On October 21, 2019, Skadden, on behalf of Stryker, sent Ropes & Gray a revised draft of the purchase agreement. The revised draft purchase agreement provided, among other things, that under certain circumstances Wright would owe Stryker a termination fee equal to 4.0% of the equity value of the transaction (including all amounts payable with respect to Wright’s convertible notes), that the Wright Board would only be permitted to accept an alternative acquisition proposal if such proposal was for a cash amount at least 10% greater than the value of the consideration offered by Stryker, and that Stryker’s obligation to divest assets in order to obtain regulatory clearances would be limited to divestitures of total ankle replacement products and services.

On October 22, 2019, a representative of Wright sent an email to representatives of Stryker indicating certain key changes in the proposed purchase agreement submitted by Stryker were not acceptable to Wright, including the amount of the termination fee, the incremental cash amount required for an alternative proposal to be deemed a superior proposal that Wright could accept, and Stryker’s limited commitment to divest assets in order to obtain regulatory approvals.

On October 23, 2019, a financial advisor who Wright had engaged in the past contacted Mr. Berry to advise him that a medical device company, which we refer to as Party E, was interested in exploring a potential merger of equals between Wright and Party E. No specific terms of a potential transaction were proposed.

On October 24, 2019, Stryker submitted a written proposal to acquire Wright for $30.25 per share in cash. Following the submission, a representative of Stryker called Mr. Palmisano to discuss the proposal. Mr. Palmisano expressed disappointment with Stryker’s proposed price and proposed a price of $32.00 per share. The representative of Stryker agreed to discuss the matter internally. Later that day, the same representative of Stryker called Mr. Palmisano again and said Stryker would increase its proposed purchase price to $30.50 per share in cash. Mr. Palmisano responded on the call with a proposal of $31.00 per share, which the representative of Stryker also agreed to discuss internally.

Also on October 24, 2019, a representative of Party C’s financial advisor notified Wright that Party C would not submit a proposal to acquire Wright on that day.

On October 25, 2019, the Wright Board held a regularly scheduled,in-person meeting, a portion of which was attended by members of Wright management and representatives of Ropes & Gray, Guggenheim Securities, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“J.P. Morgan”), a financial advisor to Wright. During the meeting, Mr. Palmisano provided an update on recent interactions with Stryker and Party C, and a representative of Guggenheim Securities reported on its discussions with Party C’s financial advisor. Both Wright management and the representatives of Guggenheim Securities shared their views that, in light of its October 21 announcement, Party C was unlikely to make a proposal in the near-term. A representative of Ropes & Gray outlined the Wright Board’s fiduciary duties in considering a sale of Wright and noted that no director had identified any potential conflicts with Stryker or Party C, including through ownership of securities, employment or consulting arrangements, or personal or family relationships. The representative of Ropes & Gray also noted that Guggenheim Securities and J.P. Morgan had each provided the Wright Board with information regarding their prior work for Wright, Stryker and Party C, and J.P. Morgan also had provided information regarding an affiliate of J.P. Morgan being a counterparty to certain of Wright’s convertible note hedging arrangements. The representative of Ropes & Gray summarized the key terms of the draft purchase agreement received from Stryker and a representative of Guggenheim Securities provided its preliminary financial analysis of the proposed

58

transaction with Stryker. During the presentations, the Wright Board asked questions and discussed the proposed transaction, as well as potential alternative courses of action, including continuing as an independent company, and the potential risks and benefits of each option. Following the discussion, the Wright Board instructed management and Wright’s advisors to seek to increase the price proposed by Stryker and to negotiate a higher level of closing certainty in the purchase agreement.

During the Wright Board meeting, Mr. Palmisano received a phone call from Mr. Lobo during which Mr. Lobo agreed to increase Stryker’s proposal to $30.75 in cash, but stated Stryker was unwilling to increase the proposed price further. Mr. Palmisano agreed to discuss this with the Wright Board and reiterated that closing certainty was a critical issue for Wright. Later in the meeting, Mr. Palmisano received a phone call from the Chairman of Party C’s Board of Directors who advised Mr. Palmisano that, while Party C remained interested in a potential transaction with Wright, it would likely not be in a position to pursue a transaction with Wright until February 2020 at the earliest.

Between October 25, 2019 and November 3, 2019, representatives of Wright and Stryker, together with Ropes & Gray and Skadden, at the direction of their respective clients, negotiated the terms of the purchase agreement. Among the key areas of negotiation were Stryker’s commitment to divest assets in order to obtain regulatory clearances; the material adverse effect definition; the Wright Board’s ability to accept a superior proposal and to change its recommendation, including whether a competing proposal must be for all cash consideration and at least a certain amount greater than Stryker’s proposed price; and the size of the termination fee.

On October 25, 2019, the financial advisor who had called about Party E again contacted Mr. Berry to discuss a potential merger of equals between Wright and Party E, but did not provide more specific details about the potential transaction.

On October 31, 2019, the Wright Board held a telephonic meeting attended by members of Wright management. Mr. Palmisano provided an update on the status of contract negotiations with Stryker.

On Friday November 1, 2019, after the close of trading on Nasdaq, Bloomberg reported that Wright was exploring a sale.

On November 2, 2019, Party E sent Mr. Palmisano and the Chairman of the Wright Board anon-binding proposal to acquire Wright for $30.00 per share, 40% of which would be cash and 60% of which would be Party E equity. The proposal was subject to diligence and indicated that Party E intended to issue debt and new equity to fund the cash portion of the purchase price but had not yet secured commitments from potential financing sources. The same day, a representative of Party E called the Chairman of the Wright Board to deliver the proposal orally.

On November 3, 2019, the Wright Board held a telephonic meeting, which was attended by members of Wright management and representatives of Guggenheim Securities, J.P. Morgan and Ropes & Gray. Mr. Palmisano summarized the status of discussions with Stryker and developments since the Wright Board’s meeting on October 31, 2019. A representative of Ropes & Gray then outlined the Wright Board’s fiduciary duties. The Wright Board discussed Party C’s indication that it would not be able to pursue a transaction until at least February 2020, and Party E’s proposal, which the Wright Board noted (1) contained a nominal price below theall-cash price in Stryker’s proposal, (2) was subject to substantial conditionality, (3) proposed a consideration package substantially weighted towards equity, rather than cash, and (4) indicated that Party E would need at least two additional weeks to complete diligence and negotiate a transaction agreement, during which time Stryker may determine not to pursue the proposed transaction. The representative of Ropes & Gray noted that neither Party C nor Party E would be subject to any standstill restrictions that would preclude a bid if a transaction with Stryker were announced. The representative of Ropes & Gray then summarized the terms of the proposed purchase agreement with Stryker, which had been provided to the Wright Board in advance of the

59

meeting, highlighting, among other things, the proposed $150 million termination fee, the nature of Stryker’s obligations to obtain regulatory approvals, and Wright’s ability to accept superior proposals in certain circumstances. Representatives of Guggenheim Securities reviewed its financial analysis of the Offer Consideration and provided an analysis of the proposal received from Party E, including Guggenheim Securities’ preliminary view of the Party E equity that comprised a substantial portion of the proposal. Following its presentation, Guggenheim Securities rendered an oral opinion, confirmed by delivery of a written opinion dated November 3, 2019, to the Wright Board to the effect that, as of that date and based on and subject to the matters considered, the procedures followed, the assumptions made and various limitations of and qualifications to the review undertaken, the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (other than in the case of any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders. The Wright Board continued its discussion of the proposed transaction and considered the reasons for and against the transaction described under “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement”on page 60 of this proxy statement. At the conclusion of this discussion, after consideration of the matters presented, the Wright Board unanimously voted to approve the proposed transaction with Stryker. The Wright Board also approved formally engaging J.P. Morgan as a financial advisor. The independent directors then considered the implications of the transaction on certain compensation arrangements between Wright and certain of its executives and employees, and approved such matters.

Following the meeting, also on November 3, 2019, Wright and J.P. Morgan executed an engagement letter in respect of J.P. Morgan’s services to Wright as an additional financial advisor to Wright.

On November 4, prior to the opening of trading on the U.S. stock markets, Wright and Stryker executed and delivered the Purchase Agreement and each party issued a press release announcing the proposed transaction.

Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement

Recommendation of the Wright Board to Approve the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement

The Wright Board, after considering various factors described below, has unanimously, among other things,(a) determined that the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Offer, certain transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and Second Step Distribution and the Mergers) are in the best interests of Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders, (b) approved and adopted the Purchase Agreement and (c) resolved, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to recommend that Wright’s shareholders tender their Shares into the Offer and approve and adopt the matters to be proposed for consideration and approval by Wright’s shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

The Wright Board unanimously recommends that you vote (i) “FOR” each of the Governance Resolutions, (ii) “FOR” the Discharge Resolution, (iii) “FOR” each of the Asset Sale Resolutions, (iv) “FOR” each of the Merger Resolutions, (v) “FOR” the Demerger Resolution and (vi) “FOR” theNon-Binding Vote on Executive Compensation Proposal.

Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement

The Wright Board has reviewed and considered the Offer after consultation with members of Wright’s management and financial and legal advisors. After considering its fiduciary duties under applicable law, the Wright Board has unanimously determined that the Offer is in the best interests of Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders.

60

The Wright Board considered each of the following reasons, among others, when reaching its recommendation that shareholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser:

• Transaction Financial Terms. The Wright Board considered the relationship of the Offer Consideration to the historical market prices of the Shares, and expectations regarding expected trading prices if Wright remained an independent company. The Wright Board considered that the Offer Consideration of $30.75 per Share, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, represents a premium of (a) 48% compared to the closing price of the Shares of $20.80 per Share on October 31, 2019 (the last trading day prior to speculation that Wright was exploring a sale), (b) 48% compared to the volume weighted average sales price of the Shares of $20.84 per Share over the 10 days ended October 31, 2019, (c) 50% compared to the volume weighted average sales price of the Shares of $20.49 per Share over the 30 days ended October 31, 2019 and (d) 46% compared to the volume weighted average sales price of the Shares of $21.06 per Share over the 90 days ended October 31, 2019, but a discount of 6% to the52-week high sales price of the Shares of $32.86 per Share.

• Wright’s Operating and Financial Condition; Prospects of Wright. The Wright Board considered Wright’s business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the Management Forecast (as defined below) and its longrange-plan. The Wright Board considered, among other factors that the holders of the Shares would continue to be subject to the risks and uncertainties of Wright executing on its operating plan if it remained independent. These risks and uncertainties included risks relating to Wright’s ability to achieve its strategy to become a high-growth, pure-play medical technology company; market acceptance of Wright’s products; Wright’s ability to successfully compete against current or future competitors; the magnitude of potential liabilities related to existing or future product liability claims; the impact of regulatory decisions on Wright’s product candidates and existing products, including recalls; the impact of losing existing or future intellectual property lawsuits, or Wright’s patents or other intellectual property rights failing to protect adequately Wright’s products; and Wright’s ability to service its debt and secure additional financing. The Wright Board also considered other risks and uncertainties discussed in Wright’s filings with the SEC.

• Results of Process Conducted. The Wright Board considered the results of the process that had been conducted by Wright, with the assistance of Wright’s management and advisors, to solicit proposals for alternative transactions, the resulting discussions and negotiations, and the fact that none of these discussions or negotiations resulted in a proposal for a transaction more favorable than the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

• Type of Consideration. The Wright Board considered the cash consideration to be paid to Wright’s shareholders, which will provide liquidity and certainty of value to shareholders.

• Negotiations with Stryker. The Wright Board considered the enhancements that Wright and its advisors were able to obtain as a result of robustarm’s-length negotiations with Stryker, including the increase in the Offer Price proposed by Stryker from the time of its initial indication of interest to the end of the negotiations. The Wright Board determined that, based on Wright’s negotiations with Stryker, it had received Stryker’s best offer.

• Ability to Respond to Unsolicited Takeover Proposals and Terminate the Purchase Agreement to Accept a Superior Proposal. The Wright Board considered the provisions in the Purchase Agreement that permit Wright, subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, to provide information to, and engage in negotiations with, a third party that makes an unsolicited proposal, and, subject to payment of a termination fee and the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to enter into a transaction with a party that makes a superior proposal.

• Termination Fee Provisions. The Wright Board considered the termination fee provisions of the Purchase Agreement, which require a termination fee of $150 million to be paid to Stryker in the event of certain terminations of the Purchase Agreement, and determined that they are reasonable under the circumstances and likely would not be a significant deterrent to a competing offer that might be superior to the Offer Consideration.

61

• Conditions to the Consummation of the Offer; Likelihood of Closing. The Wright Board considered the conditions to the Offer reasonable and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement probable. In particular, the Wright Board considered that the consummation of the transactions is not subject to a financing condition and that Stryker agreed to take all actions necessary to obtain any consents, clearances or approvals under the HSR Act (as defined below) and under foreign competition laws (except that Stryker’s obligations to divest assets is limited to total ankle replacement assets and other assets that, individually or in the aggregate, generated less than $25 million of revenue in 2018).

• Opinion of Guggenheim Securities. The Wright Board considered the financial presentation and the opinion, each dated as of November 3, 2019, of Guggenheim Securities to the Wright Board as to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of the opinion, of the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (other than in the case of any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration), which opinion was based on and subject to the matters considered, the procedures followed, the assumptions made and various limitations of and qualifications to the review undertaken as more fully described under the section entitled “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Opinion of Wright’s Financial Advisor to the Wright Board,” beginning on page 62 below.

• Advice of J.P. Morgan. J.P. Morgan was retained by the Wright Board to act as a financial advisor, and the Wright Board considered J.P. Morgan’s advice regarding the desirability of effecting the transactions under the Purchase Agreement.

• Ability of Shareholders to Determine Whether to Tender. The Wright Board considered the fact that the Offer is structured as a tender offer, so all shareholders may elect whether to tender their Shares. Furthermore, the Wright Board considered that the Offer could be followed by a Post-Offer Reorganization consisting of, among other potential transactions, the Mergers or the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and the Second Step Distribution, in which case shareholders who do not tender their Shares in the Offer will receive the same cash price payable for the Shares in the Offer, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, or a Compulsory Acquisition, in which case shareholders who do not tender their Shares in the Offer will receive cash in an amount determined by the Dutch Court.

• Subsequent Offering Period.The Wright Board considered the requirement that, except in the event that promptly following the Expiration Time Purchaser or Stryker publicly announces its intention to effectuate the Mergers, Purchaser commence a subsequent offering period (as it may be further extended under the terms of the Purchase Agreement) after the Acceptance Time, which it considered important because such subsequent offering period would allownon-tendering shareholders of Wright, who may be subject to different and potentially adverse tax treatment on the consideration received in respect of their Shares in connection with the Asset Sale, the Liquidation and the Second Step Distribution, if effectuated (as compared to the Offer), an additional opportunity to tender their Shares into the Offer and avoid any such adverse tax treatment.

• Post-Offer Reorganization.The Wright Board considered the terms of the Post-Offer Reorganization, including that such transactions were necessary to effect Stryker’s proposal of a transaction for all of the equity of Wright, which Stryker indicated was necessary in order for Stryker and its affiliates to obtain the operational, commercial and financial benefits Stryker anticipated to receive as a result of the transaction. The Wright Board considered the Post-Offer Reorganization desirable, because Stryker had indicated that it would not pursue an acquisition of Wright if it did not have the ability to acquire all of the outstanding Shares or the entire business of Wright and, in the event such transactions are implemented, the holders of the Shares would generally be offered or receive an amount equal to the Offer Consideration and would not be required to hold a potentially illiquid, minority stake in Wright.

• Other Stakeholder Considerations. The Wright Board considered the opportunity for Wright’s employees in connection with the Offer and other transactions contemplated by the Purchase

62

Agreement. Wright considered that the Purchase Agreement provides that for the period from Closing through the one year anniversary of Closing, Stryker will cause Wright or its subsidiaries to provide Current Employees with specified compensation and benefits. The Wright Board also considered the treatment of equity awards in connection with the Offer.

The Wright Board also considered Stryker’s leading position as a medical technology company and how the proposed combination of Wright and Stryker offers significant opportunities to advance innovation, improve outcomes and reach more patients, thereby benefitting Wright’s customers, suppliers and employees.

The Wright Board also considered a number of uncertainties and risks in their deliberations concerning the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the following:

• Restrictions; Termination Fee. The Wright Board considered the restrictions that the Purchase Agreement would impose on Wright actively soliciting competing bids, and the insistence of Stryker as a provision in the Purchase Agreement that Wright would be obligated to pay a termination fee of $150 million following certain terminations of the Purchase Agreement, and the potential effect of such termination fee in deterring other potential bidders from proposing alternative transactions.

• Failure to Close. The Wright Board considered that Stryker and Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the Offer were subject to conditions, and the possibility that such conditions may not be satisfied, including as a result of events outside of Wright’s control, such as shareholders of Wright failing to tender a number of Shares equal to at least 95% (or to a percentage not less than 80% if elected by Purchaser or if resolutions are adopted by Wright’s shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting related to the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals (as defined below), including the Asset Sale Resolutions, the Merger Resolutions and the Demerger Resolution) of all Shares then outstanding, failure to obtain antitrust approvals or a governmental authority issuing an injunction that would prohibit the transaction. The Wright Board also considered the fact that, if the proposed transactions were not completed, the market’s perception of Wright’s continuing business could potentially result in an adverse impact on Wright’s business and the trading price of the Shares. The Wright Board also considered the fact that, if the Offer was not consummated, Wright’s directors, officers and other employees will have expended extensive time and effort and will have experienced significant distractions from their work during the pendency of the transaction, and Wright will have incurred significant transaction costs, attempting to consummate the transaction.

• Pre-Closing Covenants. The Wright Board considered that, under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Wright agreed that it will carry on its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and, subject to specified exceptions, will not take a number of actions related to the conduct of its business without the prior written consent of Stryker. The Wright Board further considered that these terms of the Purchase Agreement may limit Wright’s ability to pursue business opportunities that it might otherwise pursue.

• No Future Shareholder Participation in Future Earnings or Growth of Wright as an Independent Company. The Wright Board considered the fact that, following the Offer Closing, Wright will no longer operate as an independent public company, and former shareholders of Wright will not have the opportunity to participate in its future earnings growth and future profits as an independent company.

• Potential Conflicts of Interest. The Wright Board considered the financial interests of certain of the directors of the Wright Board, executive officers and financial advisors in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, as described in this proxy statement, and considered whether a potential conflict of interest existed in relation to any of the directors of the Wright Board, executive officers and financial advisors, concluding that this was not the case.

• Tax Treatment. The Wright Board considered that the receipt of the cash consideration by U.S. holders of Shares in the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization will be a taxable transaction for such holders

63

for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Wright Board also considered the applicable withholding taxes (including Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting)) and other taxes, if any, imposed on Wright’s shareholders in respect of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization. Please seeSection 5—“Certain Material Tax Consequences” of the Offer to Purchase for a more detailed discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences and certain material Dutch tax consequences of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization.

The Wright Board believed that, overall, the potential benefits of the Purchase Agreement to Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders outweigh the risks, and that the Purchase Agreement was reasonably likely to represent the most attractive alternative for Wright, its businesses and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders of Wright. In analyzing the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Wright Board and Wright’s management were assisted and advised by legal counsel and financial advisors.

The foregoing discussion of information and reasons considered by the Wright Board is not intended to be exhaustive. In light of the variety of reasons considered in connection with its evaluation of the Purchase Agreement, including the Offer, the Wright Board did not find it practicable to, and did not, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific reasons considered in reaching its determinations and recommendations. Moreover, each member of the Wright Board applied his or her own personal business judgment to the process and may have given different weight to different reasons.

Change of Recommendation

As described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Recommendation of the Wright Board and Reasons for the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,” beginning on page 60, and subject to the provisions described below, the Wright Board has made the recommendation that the holders of Wright Shares vote “FOR” each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals. The Purchase Agreement provides that the Wright Board may not effect a change of recommendation except as described below.

Wright has agreed that the Wright Board and each committee thereof will not (a) approve or adopt, or permit Wright or any of its subsidiaries to (and neither Wright nor any of its subsidiaries will) enter into or execute, any binding ornon-binding letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, option agreement, merger agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement relating to or that would reasonably be expected to lead to (other than a confidentiality agreement pursuant to thenon-solicitation covenant) an Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) or publicly propose to take such action or (b) make a Change of Board Recommendation (as defined below).

For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Change of Board Recommendation” means:

• the withdrawal or modification or qualification of the Wright Board Recommendation (as defined below) or any public proposal to withdraw, modify or qualify the Wright Board Recommendation;

• the approval, authorization or recommendation by the Wright Board or any committee thereof of any Acquisition Proposal or any public proposal by the Wright Board or any committee thereof to approve, authorize or recommend any Acquisition Proposal;

• the failure to include the Wright Board Recommendation (as defined below) in the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule14D-9 filed with the SEC by Wright on December 13, 2019 (the “Schedule14D-9”) or in this proxy statement when disseminated to the holders of Shares;

• the failure by Wright, within 10 business days of the public announcement of the commencement of a tender or exchange offer for Shares that constitutes an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior

64

Proposal (as defined below)) by a person other than Stryker or any of its subsidiaries, to file a Schedule14D-9 pursuant to Rule14e-2 and Rule14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act recommending that the holders of the Shares reject such Acquisition Proposal and not tender any Shares into such tender or exchange offer; or

• the failure by the Wright Board to publicly reaffirm the Wright Board Recommendation within 10 business days after receiving a written request from Stryker to provide such public reaffirmation following public disclosure of an Acquisition Proposal (or, if earlier (but still, after a written request delivered by Stryker to Wright at least 48 hours prior to the then-scheduled Expiration Time, or the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, as applicable), prior to the then-scheduled Expiration Time, or the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, as applicable), provided, that, Stryker may deliver only one such request with respect to any Acquisition Proposal subject to this clause (it being understood that any change to the financial terms or any other material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal, will constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for this purpose).

Opinion of Wright’s Financial Advisor to the Wright Board

The Wright Board retained Guggenheim Securities as its financial advisor in connection with the potential sale of Wright. In selecting Guggenheim Securities as its financial advisor, the Wright Board considered, among other things, Guggenheim Securities’ existing relationship with Wright and that it is an internationally recognized investment banking, financial advisory and securities firm whose senior professionals have substantial experience advising companies in the medical device industry. Guggenheim Securities, as part of its investment banking, financial advisory and capital markets businesses, is regularly engaged in the valuation and financial assessment of businesses and securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, recapitalizations, spin-offs/split-offs, restructurings, securities offerings in both the private and public capital markets and valuations for corporate and other purposes.

At the November 3, 2019 meeting of the Wright Board, Guggenheim Securities rendered an oral opinion, which was confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, to the Wright Board to the effect that, as of November 3, 2019 and based on and subject to the matters considered, the procedures followed, the assumptions made and various limitations of and qualifications to the review undertaken, the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (other than in the case of any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

This description of Guggenheim Securities’ opinion is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the written opinion, which is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement and which you should read carefully and in its entirety. Guggenheim Securities’ written opinion sets forth the matters considered, the procedures followed, the assumptions made and various limitations of and qualifications to the review undertaken by Guggenheim Securities. Guggenheim Securities’ written opinion, which was authorized for issuance by the Fairness Opinion and Valuation Committee of Guggenheim Securities, is necessarily based on economic, capital markets and other conditions, and the information made available to Guggenheim Securities, as of the date of such opinion. Guggenheim Securities has no responsibility for updating or revising its opinion based on facts, circumstances or events occurring after the date of the rendering of the opinion.

In reading the discussion of Guggenheim Securities’ opinion set forth below, you should be aware that such opinion (and, as applicable, any materials provided in connection therewith or the summary of Guggenheim Securities’ underlying financial analyses elsewhere in this proxy statement):

• was provided to the Wright Board (in its capacity as such) for its information and assistance in connection with its evaluation of the Offer Consideration;

65

• did not constitute a recommendation to the Wright Board with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement;

• did not address Wright’s underlying business or financial decision to pursue or effect the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the relative merits of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement as compared to any alternative business or financial strategies that might exist for Wright, the effects of any other transaction in which Wright might engage or the financing or funding of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement by Stryker and Purchaser;

• addressed only the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of such opinion, of the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (excluding any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) to the extent expressly specified in such opinion;

• expressed no view or opinion as to (i) any other term, aspect or implication of (a) the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation, the form or structure of the Offer, any Post-Offer Reorganization or any other transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or the implementation of any of the foregoing) or the Purchase Agreement or (b) any other agreement, transaction document or instrument contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or to be entered into or amended in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or (ii) the fairness, financial or otherwise, of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to, or of any consideration to be paid to or received by, the holders of any other class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of Wright;

• expressed no view or opinion as to any aspects of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or the Offer Consideration in accordance with or under applicable Dutch corporation law or securities regulations, including whether the Offer Consideration was the fair price within the meaning of Section 5:80a of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act; and

• expressed no view or opinion as to the fairness, financial or otherwise, of the amount or nature of any compensation payable to or to be received by any of Wright’s directors, officers or employees, or any class of such persons, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement relative to the Offer Consideration or otherwise.

In the course of performing its reviews and analyses for rendering its opinion, Guggenheim Securities:

• reviewed a draft of the Purchase Agreement dated as of November 3, 2019;

• reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information regarding Wright;

• reviewed certainnon-public business and financial information regarding Wright’s business and future prospects (including the Management Forecast (as defined below)), all as prepared and approved for Guggenheim Securities’ use by Wright’s senior management;

• discussed with Wright’s senior management their strategic and financial rationale for the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement as well as their views of Wright’s business, operations, historical and projected financial results and future prospects and the commercial, competitive and regulatory dynamics in the medical device sector;

• reviewed the historical prices, trading multiples and trading activity of the Shares;

• compared the financial performance of Wright and the trading multiples and trading activity of the Shares with corresponding data for certain other publicly traded companies that Guggenheim Securities deemed relevant in evaluating Wright;

66

• reviewed the valuation and financial metrics of certain mergers and acquisitions that Guggenheim Securities deemed relevant in evaluating the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement;

• performed a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Management Forecast; and

• conducted such other studies, analyses, inquiries and investigations as Guggenheim Securities deemed appropriate.

With respect to the information used in arriving at its opinion, Guggenheim Securities noted that:

• Guggenheim Securities relied upon and assumed the accuracy, completeness and reasonableness of all industry, business, financial, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, actuarial and other information (including, without limitation, the Management Forecast, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information) provided by or discussed with Wright or obtained from public sources, data suppliers and other third parties.

• Guggenheim Securities (i) did not assume any responsibility, obligation or liability for the accuracy, completeness, reasonableness, achievability or independent verification of, and Guggenheim Securities did not independently verify, any such information (including, without limitation, the Management Forecast, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information), (ii) expressed no view, opinion, representation, guaranty or warranty (in each case, express or implied) regarding the reasonableness or achievability of the Management Forecast, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information or the assumptions upon which they are based and (iii) relied upon the assurances of Wright’s senior management that they were unaware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information (including, without limitation, the Management Forecast, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information) incomplete, inaccurate or misleading.

• Specifically, with respect to (i) the Management Forecast, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information provided by or discussed with Wright, (a) Guggenheim Securities was advised by Wright’s senior management, and Guggenheim Securities assumed, that the Management Forecast, such other estimates and such other forward-looking information utilized in its analyses had been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best then-currently available estimates and judgments of Wright’s senior management as to the expected future performance of Wright and (b) Guggenheim Securities assumed that the Management Forecast, such other estimates and such other forward-looking information had been reviewed by the Wright Board with the understanding that such information would be used and relied upon by Guggenheim Securities in connection with rendering its opinion and (ii) any financial projections, any other estimates and/or any other forward-looking information obtained by Guggenheim Securities from public sources, data suppliers and other third parties, Guggenheim Securities assumed that such information was reasonable and reliable.

Guggenheim Securities also noted certain other considerations with respect to its engagement and the rendering of its opinion:

• During the course of its engagement, Guggenheim Securities was asked by the Wright Board to solicit indications of interest from various third parties regarding a potential transaction with Wright, and Guggenheim Securities considered the results of such solicitation process in rendering its opinion.

• Guggenheim Securities did not perform or obtain any independent appraisal of the assets or liabilities (including any contingent, derivative oroff-balance sheet assets and liabilities) of Wright or any other entity or the solvency or fair value of Wright or any other entity, nor was Guggenheim Securities furnished with any such appraisals.

• Guggenheim Securities’ professionals are not legal, regulatory, tax, consulting, accounting, appraisal or actuarial experts and Guggenheim Securities’ opinion should not be construed as constituting advice with respect to such matters; accordingly, Guggenheim Securities relied on the assessments of Wright’s senior management and Wright’s other professional advisors with respect to such matters.

Summary of Financial Analyses

Overview of Financial Analyses

This “Summary of Financial Analyses” presents a summary of the principal financial analyses performed by Guggenheim Securities and presented to the Wright Board in connection with Guggenheim Securities’ rendering of its opinion. Such presentation to the Wright Board was supplemented by Guggenheim Securities’ oral discussion, the nature and substance of which may not be fully described herein.

Some of the financial analyses summarized below include summary data and information presented in tabular format. In order to understand fully such financial analyses, the summary data and tables must be read together with the full text of the summary. Considering the summary data and tables alone could create a misleading or incomplete view of Guggenheim Securities’ financial analyses.

The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and involves various judgments and determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant financial analyses and the application of those methods to

68

the particular circumstances involved. A fairness opinion therefore is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description, and taking portions of the financial analyses set forth below, without considering such analyses as a whole, would in Guggenheim Securities’ view create an incomplete and misleading picture of the processes underlying the financial analyses considered in rendering Guggenheim Securities’ opinion.

In arriving at its opinion, Guggenheim Securities:

• based its financial analyses on various assumptions, including assumptions concerning general business, economic and capital markets conditions and industry-specific and company-specific factors, all of which are beyond the control of Wright, Stryker and Guggenheim Securities;

• did not form a view or opinion as to whether any individual analysis or factor, whether positive or negative, considered in isolation, supported or failed to support its opinion;

• considered the results of all of its financial analyses and did not attribute any particular weight to any one analysis or factor; and

• ultimately arrived at its opinion based on the results of all of its financial analyses assessed as a whole and believes that the totality of the factors considered and the various financial analyses performed by Guggenheim Securities in connection with its opinion operated collectively to support its determination as to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of such opinion, of the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (excluding any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) to the extent expressly specified in such opinion.

With respect to the financial analyses performed by Guggenheim Securities in connection with rendering its opinion:

• Such financial analyses, particularly those based on estimates and projections, are not necessarily indicative of actual values or actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses.

• None of the selected publicly traded companies used in the selected publicly traded companies analysis described below is identical or directly comparable to Wright or Stryker, and none of the selected precedent merger and acquisition transactions used in the selected precedent merger and acquisition transactions analysis described below is identical or directly comparable to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. However, such companies and transactions were selected by Guggenheim Securities, among other reasons, because they represented publicly traded companies or involved target companies which may be considered broadly similar, for purposes of Guggenheim Securities’ financial analyses, to Wright and Stryker based on Guggenheim Securities’ familiarity with the medical device industry.

• In any event, selected publicly traded companies analysis and selected precedent merger and acquisition transactions analysis are not mathematical. Rather, such analyses involve complex considerations and judgments concerning the differences in business, operating, financial and capital markets-related characteristics and other factors regarding the selected publicly traded companies to which Wright and Stryker were compared and the selected precedent merger and acquisition transactions to which the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement was compared.

• Such financial analyses do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which any securities may trade at the present time or at any time in the future.

69

Selected Publicly Traded Companies Analysis

Guggenheim Securities reviewed and analyzed Wright’s historical stock price performance, trading metrics and historical and projected/forecasted financial performance compared to corresponding data for selected publicly traded companies that Guggenheim Securities deemed relevant for purposes of this analysis (i.e., medical device companies with market capitalizations of ~$700 million to $10 billion, 2019 to 2020 estimated growth of ~7% to 17% and gross margins greater than 60%). Guggenheim Securities calculated, among other things, various public market trading multiples for Wright and the selected publicly traded companies (in the case of the selected publicly traded companies, based on Wall Street equity research consensus estimates and each company’s most recent publicly available financial filings), which are summarized in the table below:

(1) Excludes the burden of stock-based compensation.

In performing its selected precedent merger and acquisition transactions analysis with respect to Wright, Guggenheim Securities selected a reference range of transaction multiples for purposes of evaluating Wright on achange-of-control basis as follows: (i) transaction enterprise value / NTM revenue multiple range of 4.6x – 5.5x, which resulted in an overall reference range of $26.75 – $33.00 per share for purposes of evaluating the Shares on achange-of-control basis; and (ii) transaction enterprise value / NTM EBITDA multiple range of 20.0x – 26.0x, which resulted in an overall reference range of $22.25 – $31.00 per share for purposes of evaluating the Shares on achange-of-control basis.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

Guggenheim Securities performed a stand-alone discounted cash flow analysis of Wright based on projectedafter-tax unlevered free cash flows (after deducting stock-based compensation) for Wright and an estimate of its terminal/continuing value at the end of the projection horizon.

In performing its discounted cash flow analysis with respect to Wright:

• Guggenheim Securities utilized the Management Forecast.

• Guggenheim Securities used a discount rate range of 7.03% – 8.39% based on its estimate of Wright’s weighted average cost of capital (which was estimated based on Guggenheim Securities’ (i) investment banking and capital markets judgment and experience in valuing companies similar to Wright and

74

(ii) application of the capital asset pricing model, which requires certain (a) general inputs such as the prospective global equity risk premium and the corresponding risk-free rate and (b) company-specific inputs such as the subject company’s forward-looking equity beta reference range, the subject company’s assumed forward-looking capital structure and the corresponding blended cost of debt, the subject company’s prospective marginal cash income tax rate and, as applicable, the appropriate size/liquidity premium for the subject company).

• In estimating Wright’s terminal/continuing value for purposes of its discounted cash flow analysis, Guggenheim Securities used a perpetual growth rate range of 2.0% – 3.0%. Guggenheim Securities selected such terminal/continuing value-related perpetual growth rates based on its professional judgment taking into account various considerations and factors, including among others (i) the nature of Wright’s businesses, including recent and expected trends in and competitive dynamics with respect to, and expected long-term growth prospects for, the industry and markets in which Wright operates, (ii) the Management Forecast and (iii) then-prevailing market expectations regarding global long-term economic growth and global long-term inflation. Guggenheim Securities applied atwo-stage methodology to calculate the terminal value, which was discussed with Wright’s senior management. During the first stage of the terminal value, free cash flow growth decelerates linearly to the assumed perpetuity growth rate by 2029, and thereafter the perpetuity growth rate is applied.

Guggenheim Securities’ discounted cash flow analysis resulted in an implied equity value range of $22.25 – $40.25 per share, including, at the high end of the range, approximately $1.00 per share attributable to the estimated present value, as of November 1, 2019, of Wright’s net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2018, for purposes of evaluating the Shares on a stand-alone intrinsic-value basis.

Other Financial Reviews and Analyses Solely for Informational Reference Purposes

In order to provide certain context for the financial analyses in connection with its opinion as described above, Guggenheim Securities undertook various additional financial reviews and analyses as summarized below solely for informational reference purposes. As a general matter, Guggenheim Securities did not consider such additional financial reviews and analyses to be determinative methodologies for purposes of its opinion.

Wright’s52-Week Intraday High and Low Stock Prices.Guggenheim Securities reviewed the trading price of the Shares over the52-week period ending on October 31, 2019 (the last full trading day prior to a 5.8% increase on November 1, 2019 in the trading price of the Shares on Nasdaq, which coincided with a Bloomberg article suggesting Wright was contemplating a sale transaction). Among other things, Guggenheim Securities noted that the range of such52-week intraday high and low trading prices was $19.04 – $32.86.

Wright’s Wall Street Equity Research Analyst Stock Price Targets. Guggenheim Securities reviewed selected Wall Street equity research analyst stock price targets for Wright as published prior to October 31, 2019 (the last full trading day prior to a 5.8% increase on November 1, 2019 in the trading price of the Shares on Nasdaq, which coincided with a Bloomberg article suggesting Wright was contemplating a sale transaction). Guggenheim Securities noted that such Wall Street equity research analyst stock price targets for the Shares were $21.25 – $29.75 per share on a present value basis using an illustrative discount rate of 7.7% (which reflected Guggenheim Securities’ estimate of the midpoint of Wright’s cost of equity).

PrecedentOne-Day Stock Price Premiums. Guggenheim Securities reviewed theone-day stock price premiums in selected transactions announced since 2016 involving targets in the medical device sector with transaction values in excess of $700 million. Based on, among other things, an approximate 25^th and 75^th percentile of the precedentone-day stock price premiums analysis, Guggenheim Securities noted that the range of suchone-day stock price premiums was 30 – 50%, implying share prices of $27.00 – $31.25 based on the closing share price of the Shares of $20.80 per share on October 31, 2019.

75

Wright’s Illustrative Theoretical Future Stock Price. Guggenheim Securities reviewed implied illustrative ranges of theoretical future values per share at January 1 in each year from 2020 through 2023 of the Shares on a stand-alone basis utilizing projected revenues from the Management Forecast. Among other things, Guggenheim Securities noted that for the Shares on a stand-alone basis, the theoretical future values per share at January 1 in each year from 2020 through 2023 were approximately (i) $21.58, $25.05, $29.77 and $34.79, respectively, based on Wright’s current NTM revenue multiple of 3.8x, and (ii) $26.80, $30.73, $35.46 and $41.06, respectively, based on an illustrative upside NTM revenue multiple of 4.5x. Guggenheim Securities also noted that the corresponding present values of the above theoretical future values per Share, using an illustrative discount rate of 7.7% (which reflected Guggenheim Securities’ estimate of the midpoint of Wright’s cost of equity), were (i) $21.58, $23.26, $25.65 and $27.84, based on Wright’s current NTM revenue multiple of 3.8x, and (ii) $26.80, $28.53, $30.56 and $32.85, based on an upside illustrative NTM revenue multiple of 4.5x.

Other Considerations

Except as described in the summary above, Wright did not provide specific instructions to, or place any limitations on, Guggenheim Securities with respect to the procedures to be followed or factors to be considered in performing its financial analyses or providing its opinion. The type and amount of consideration payable in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement were determined through negotiations between Wright and Stryker and were approved by the Wright Board. Wright’s decision to enter into the Purchase Agreement was solely that of the Wright Board. Guggenheim Securities’ opinion was just one of the many factors taken into consideration by the Wright Board. Consequently, Guggenheim Securities’ financial analyses should not be viewed as determinative of the decision of the Wright Board with respect to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of Guggenheim Securities’ opinion, of the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Purchaser or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (excluding any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration).

Pursuant to the terms of Guggenheim Securities’ engagement, Wright has agreed to pay Guggenheim Securities a cash transaction fee (based on a percentage of the aggregate value associated with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement) upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, which cash transaction fee currently is estimated to be $37.6 million. Wright has previously paid Guggenheim Securities a cash milestone fee of $1.0 million that became payable upon the rendering of Guggenheim Securities’ opinion, which will be credited against the foregoing cash transaction fee. In addition, Wright has agreed to reimburse Guggenheim Securities for certain expenses and to indemnify Guggenheim Securities against certain liabilities arising out of its engagement.

Aside from its current engagement by Wright, during the two years prior to the rendering of its opinion, Guggenheim Securities has not previously been engaged by (i) Wright to provide financial advisory or other investment banking services for which Guggenheim Securities received compensation (ii) Stryker to provide financial advisory or other investment banking services for which Guggenheim Securities has received compensation, except in connection with Stryker’s acquisition of Entellus Medical, Inc. in February 2018, for which services Guggenheim Securities received customary fees of less than $10 million. Guggenheim Securities may seek to provide Wright and Stryker and their respective affiliates with financial advisory and investment banking services unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement in the future, for which services Guggenheim Securities would expect to receive compensation.

Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities engage in a wide range of financial services activities for its and their own accounts and the accounts of customers, including but not limited to: asset, investment and wealth management; insurance services; investment banking, corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions and restructuring; merchant banking; fixed income and equity sales, trading and research; and derivatives, foreign exchange and futures. In the ordinary course of these activities, Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities may (i) provide such financial services to Wright, Stryker, Purchaser, other

76

participants in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and their respective affiliates, for which services Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities may have received, and may in the future receive, compensation and (ii) directly and indirectly hold long and short positions, trade and otherwise conduct such activities in or with respect to loans, debt and equity securities and derivative products of or relating to Wright, Stryker, Purchaser, other participants in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and their respective affiliates. Furthermore, Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities and Guggenheim Securities’ or their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants and agents may have investments in Wright, Stryker, Purchaser, other participants in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and their respective affiliates.

Consistent with applicable legal and regulatory guidelines, Guggenheim Securities has adopted certain policies and procedures to establish and maintain the independence of its research departments and personnel. As a result, Guggenheim Securities’ research analysts may hold views, make statements or investment recommendations and publish research reports with respect to Wright, Stryker, other participants in the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and their respective affiliates and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement that differ from the views of Guggenheim Securities’ investment banking personnel.

Certain Wright Management Projections

Wright does not, as a matter of course, publicly disclose long-term projections about its future financial performance due to, among other reasons, the unpredictability of the underlying assumptions and estimates, although Wright has in the past provided investors with qualitative financial guidance, which it has updated from time to time during the relevant year. However, in connection with the Wright Board’s evaluation of a potential transaction with Stryker and other potential strategic alternatives, Wright’s management provided the Wright Board with certainnon-public, unaudited and prospective financial information for the calendar years 2019 through 2024 (the “Management Forecast”).Wright’s management also provided the Management Forecast to Guggenheim Securities in connection with the rendering of its fairness opinion to the Wright Board and in performing the related financial analyses. Wright’s management also provided the Management Forecast to Stryker prior to signing the Purchase Agreement in connection with Stryker’s due diligence on Wright.

The Management Forecast was prepared solely for internal use of Wright, the Wright Board and its advisors, and is subjective in many respects. It was not prepared with a view to public disclosure and is included in this proxy statement only because such information was made available as described above. The Management Forecast was not prepared with a view to compliance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the published guidelines of the SEC regarding projections and forward-looking statements or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information. Furthermore, KPMG LLP, our independent auditor, has not examined, reviewed, compiled or otherwise applied procedures to, the Management Forecast and, accordingly, assumes no responsibility for, and expresses no opinion on, the Management Forecast. The Management Forecast included in this proxy statement has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, Wright’s management.

Although a summary of the Management Forecast is presented with numerical specificity, it reflects numerous assumptions and estimates as to future events made by Wright’s management, including about regulatory approvals, launch timing, pricing, market growth, market share, competition and other relevant factors. Wright’s management believed the assumptions and estimates were reasonable at the time the Management Forecast was prepared, taking into account the relevant information available to Wright’s management at the time. However, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of actual future results. Important factors that may affect actual results and cause the Management Forecast not to be achieved include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, accuracy of certain accounting assumptions, changes in actual or projected cash flows, competitive pressures and changes in tax laws. For additional information on reasons that may cause Wright’s future results to materially vary, see the

77

section of this proxy statement captioned “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” beginning on page 26.

In addition, the Management Forecast, which is a forward-looking statement, does not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date that they were prepared and does not account for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Management Forecast will be realized, and actual results may be materially better or worse than those contained in the Management Forecast. The inclusion of this information should not be regarded as an indication that the Wright Board, Wright, Guggenheim Securities, Stryker or any other recipient of this information considered, or now considers, the Management Forecast to be material information of Wright or predictive of actual future results. Nor should it be construed as financial guidance, and it should not be relied upon as such. The summary of the Management Forecast is not included in this proxy statement as an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell Shares or to induce any shareholder to vote in favor of any proposal to be voted on at the Extraordinary General Meeting, or to influence any shareholder to make any investment decision with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

The Management Forecast should be evaluated, if at all, in conjunction with the historical financial statements and other information regarding Wright contained in its public filings with the SEC.

Except to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws, Wright does not intend, and expressly disclaims any responsibility, to update or otherwise revise the Management Forecast to reflect circumstances existing after the date when Wright prepared the Management Forecast or to reflect the occurrence of future events or changes in general economic or industry conditions.

In light of the foregoing factors and the uncertainties inherent in the Management Forecast, shareholders are cautioned not to rely on the Management Forecast included in this proxy statement.

Certain of the measures included in the Management Forecast may be considerednon-GAAP financial measures, as noted below.Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, andnon-GAAP financial measures as used by Wright may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies.

The following table reflects selected measures from the Management Forecast prepared by Wright’s management and, at Wright’s direction, used by Guggenheim Securities in connection with the rendering of its fairness opinion to the Wright Board and in performing the related financial analyses summarized under the section entitled “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Opinion of Wright’s Financial Advisor to the Wright Board,” beginning on page 78 of this proxy statement.

Purchase Agreement

The following summary of certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement, and all other provisions of the Purchase Agreement discussed herein, are qualified by reference to the Purchase Agreement itself, which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement and is incorporated herein by reference. Shareholders and other interested parties should read the Purchase Agreement for a more complete description of the provisions summarized below. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the respective meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

This summary of the Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual disclosures about Stryker, Purchaser, Wright, or their respective affiliates. The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants that are the product of negotiations among the parties thereto and made to, and solely for the benefit of, each other as of specified dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the respective parties and are also qualified in important part by a confidential disclosure letter delivered by Wright to Purchaser in connection with the Purchase Agreement (the “Wright Disclosure Letter”). The representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants in the Purchase Agreement were made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties thereto and governing contractual rights and relationships between the parties thereto instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to security holders of Stryker or Wright. In reviewing the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement or any descriptions thereof in this proxy statement, it is important to bear in mind that such representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants or any descriptions thereof were not intended by the parties to the Purchase Agreement to be characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of Stryker, Purchaser, Wright, or their respective affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants may have changed since the date of the Purchase Agreement and may change after the date hereof, and such subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures. For the foregoing reasons, such representations, warranties, agreements and covenants or descriptions thereof should not be read alone and should instead be read in conjunction with the other information contained in the reports,

79

statements, and filings that Stryker and Wright publicly file. Please see the section of this proxy statement captioned “Where You Can Find More Information,” beginning on page 189.

The Offer

Purchaser has agreed to commence (within the meaning of Rule14d-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) the Offer as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of the Purchase Agreement, but in no event later than 25 business days following the date of the Purchase Agreement and, without the consent of Wright (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no earlier than 20 business days following the date of the Purchase Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver (in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and applicable law) of the conditions to the Offer, Purchaser has agreed to (and Stryker has agreed to cause Purchaser to), (a) at, or as promptly as practicable following, the Expiration Time (but in any event within two business days thereafter) accept for payment and (b) at, or as promptly as practicable following, the Acceptance Time (but in any event within two business days (calculated as set forth in Rule14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act) thereafter), pay for all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer.

Purchaser expressly reserves the right at any time, in its sole discretion, to waive, in whole or in part, any condition to the Offer and to make any change in the terms of, or conditions to, the Offer. However, Purchaser will not, and Stryker will cause Purchaser not to (without the prior written consent of Wright): (a) waive or change the Minimum Condition (except to the extent contemplated under the Purchase Agreement); (b) decrease the Offer Consideration; (c) change the form of consideration to be paid in the Offer; (d) decrease the number of Shares sought in the Offer; (e) extend or otherwise change the Expiration Time (except to the extent contemplated under the Purchase Agreement); (f) impose additional conditions to the Offer or otherwise amend, modify, or supplement any of the conditions to the Offer or terms of the Offer in a manner adverse to Wright shareholders; or (g) increase the Offer Consideration by an increment of less than $0.10 per Share.

Extensions of the Offer

In the Purchase Agreement, the parties agreed that, unless extended as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Offer will expire at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) or such other time as the parties may mutually agree, on the date that is 50 business days (calculated as set forth in Rule14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act) after the date of commencement of the Offer, provided that in no event will the Offer expire prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting. Purchaser may extend the Offer to such other date and time as may be agreed in writing by Wright and Stryker, and Purchaser has agreed in the Purchase Agreement that it will extend the Offer:

• for the minimum period required by applicable law, rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the rules of the Nasdaq; and

• on one or more occasions in consecutive periods of up to 10 business days each, with such period to end at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time on the last business day of such period (or such other duration as Purchaser and Wright may agree) if, at any then-scheduled Expiration Time, any condition to the Offer has not been satisfied or waived, in order to permit satisfaction of such condition(s); except that:

• if Purchaser determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that at any then-scheduled Expiration Time the Regulatory Clearance Condition is not reasonably likely to be satisfied within such 10business-day extension period, then Purchaser will be permitted to extend the Offer on such occasion for periods of up to 20 business days;

• if the only remaining unsatisfied condition to the Offer is the Minimum Condition, Purchaser will not be required to extend the Offer on more than two occasions in consecutive periods of up to 10 business days each (or such other duration as Purchaser and Wright may agree); and

• Purchaser is not required to, and cannot without Wright’s consent, extend the Offer beyond the Outside Date. In addition, Purchaser may extend the Offer to the business day immediately

80

following the date that is one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting or subsequent extraordinary general meeting at which the Merger Resolutions are approved.

Following the Acceptance Time, except as described below, Purchaser will provide for a Subsequent Offering Period of at least 10 business days in accordance with Rule14d-11 under the Exchange Act and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. For purposes of the Offer, a “business day” means a day, other than Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in Amsterdam, the Netherlands or New York, New York, United States, are authorized or required by applicable law to close. The Subsequent Offering Period is not an extension of the Offer. The Subsequent Offering Period would be an additional period of time, following the Expiration Time, in which shareholders may tender Shares not previously tendered pursuant to the Offer. Purchaser will announce additional details with respect to the Subsequent Offering Period in accordance with applicable rules, regulations and interpretations of the SEC. In the event that prior to the expiration of any such Subsequent Offering Period, Purchaser or Stryker publicly announces its intention to effectuate the Asset Sale, Purchaser will extend the Subsequent Offering Period for the Minority Exit Offering Period of at least five business days to permit any remaining minority Wright shareholders to tender their shares in exchange for the Offer Consideration. In the event that promptly following the Expiration Time, Purchaser or Stryker has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, effectuate the Mergers, Purchaser will not be required to provide either a Subsequent Offering Period or Minority Exit Offering Period, but may do so if Purchaser chooses. There will be no withdrawal rights during any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) and any Shares tendered will immediately be accepted and promptly paid for. Any shares tendered during any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) will be acquired by Purchaser for an amount equal to the Offer Consideration, in cash, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes.Under no circumstance will interest be paid on the Offer Consideration paid pursuant to the Offer, regardless of any extension of the Offer, any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period) or any delay in making payment for Shares.

Treatment of Wright Equity Awards

In connection with the Offer, outstanding Wright equity awards (other than certain equity awards that may be granted if the Offer Closing does not occur by July 1, 2020 and which will be subject to pro rata vesting at the Offer Closing) will be treated as follows:

• Each restricted stock unit in respect of Shares (an “RSU”) and performance share unit in respect of Shares (a “PSU”) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, whether or not then subject to any performance or other condition, will vest in full at the Acceptance Time and at the Offer Closing will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to required tax withholding) equal to the product of (a) the Offer Consideration multiplied by (b) the total number of Shares subject to such PSU or RSU as of immediately prior to the Offer Closing (which, in the case of PSUs, will be determined based on the maximum achievement of the applicable performance conditions).

• Each outstanding option to purchase Shares, other than under the Wright Employee Stock Purchase Plan (a “Wright Stock Option”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Offer Closing will be automatically canceled and converted into a right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to required tax withholding) equal to the product of (a) the number of Shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Wright Stock Option immediately prior to the Offer Closing multiplied by (b) the excess, if any, of the Offer Consideration over the applicable per Share exercise price of such Wright Stock Option.

Treatment of Wright Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In connection with the Offer, Wright’s Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Wright ESPP”) was operated in accordance with its terms and past practice until December 31, 2019, which was the last

81

day of the offering period that was in effect as of the date of the Purchase Agreement. Wright has suspended the commencement of any future offering periods under the Wright ESPP and, unless and until the Purchase Agreement is terminated, no subsequent offering period will commence, and Wright will terminate the Wright ESPP as of the Offer Closing.

Extraordinary General Meeting

Wright has agreed to hold the Extraordinary General Meeting to:

• provide information regarding the Offer;

• adopt the Asset Sale Resolutions;

• adopt the Merger Resolutions;

• adopt the Governance Resolutions;

• adopt the Demerger Resolution;

• adopt one or more resolutions effective upon the Acceptance Time to provide full and final discharge to each member of the Wright Board for their acts of management or supervision, as applicable, up to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, provided such discharge will be limited to the extent provided by general principles of Dutch law as in effect from time to time; and

• conduct such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

Wright has further agreed that it will as promptly as possible, but in any event within 45 business days after the date of the Purchase Agreement, file with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement in connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting. Promptly following the later of (a) confirmation by the SEC that it has no further comments on the proxy statement and (b) the expiration of the10-day waiting period contemplated by Rule14a-6(a) promulgated by the SEC, Wright will cause the proxy statement in definitive form to be filed with the SEC and mailed to Wright’s shareholders.

If the Wright Board determines in its reasonable discretion that any additional shareholder resolutions should be adopted, or if the Governance Resolutions, the Asset Sale Resolutions, the Merger Resolutions or the Demerger Resolution have not been adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting, Wright will, following consultation with Purchaser and Stryker, duly call and give notice of another Extraordinary General Meeting, which will take place at a date determined by Wright and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and Stryker and not later than a date that will be prior to the date of the Expiration Time, at which the Governance Resolutions, the Asset Sale Resolutions, the Merger Resolutions or the Demerger Resolution, or such additional resolutions will be considered or reconsidered, as the case may be.

Wright has agreed that its obligation to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Extraordinary General Meeting (and any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and its other obligations with regards to the Extraordinary General Meeting as specified in the Purchase Agreement, will not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to Wright of any Acquisition Proposal (as defined below) (whether or not a Superior Proposal (as defined below)) or any Change of Board Recommendation (as defined below). Unless the Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, Wright has agreed not to submit to a vote of the shareholders of Wright any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal) or any matters relating thereto.

Wright will consult with Purchaser and Stryker regarding the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) and, unless the Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and notwithstanding any Change of Board Recommendation (as defined below), will not cancel,

82

postpone or adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) without the prior written consent of Purchaser and Stryker, provided that Wright may, following reasonable consultation with Purchaser and Stryker, and, to the extent requested in writing by Stryker and Purchaser, Wright will, adjourn, postpone or cancel and reconvene the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) solely to the extent reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the relevant Extraordinary General Meeting materials that the Wright Board, after consultation with outside counsel, reasonably determines is necessary to comply with applicable law is made available to Wright shareholders in advance of the Extraordinary General Meeting (and any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) or (b) on no more than two occasions of not more than 10 business days each, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the approvals set forth in the Purchase Agreement, if as of the date of the scheduled Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) there are not sufficient proxies that have been received approving such matters. In the event the Extraordinary General Meeting (or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting) is adjourned, postponed or canceled and reconvened, Wright will duly give notice of and reconvene the Extraordinary General Meeting on a date scheduled by mutual agreement of Wright, on the one hand, and Purchaser and Stryker, on the other hand, acting reasonably, or, in the absence of such agreement, as soon as practicable following the date of such adjournment, postponement or cancellation but, in any event, no later than the day that is 35 days following the date of such adjournment, postponement or cancellation (or, in the case of any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, a date that is prior to the date on which the Expiration Time will occur).

Directors

Stryker, Purchaser and Wright will use their respective reasonable best efforts (including, in the case of Wright, obtaining the necessary resignations of existing directors) to ensure that the Wright Board will, upon the Offer Closing, be comprised of at least seven directors, at least five of whom will be designated in writing by Purchaser and Stryker, in their sole discretion, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event prior to convening the Extraordinary General Meeting, and at least two of whom will initially be currentnon-executive directors of Wright designated by Wright and Purchaser by mutual written agreement and who are at all times independent from Purchaser and Stryker and qualify as independent under the Dutch Corporate Governance Code 2016. The initial Independent Directors will be currentnon-executive directors of Wright, to the extent that they will agree to serve on the Wright Board after the Offer Closing. Each Independent Director will resign from the Wright Board upon the earliest of (a) such time after the Acceptance Time as Purchaser and its affiliates, in the aggregate, own 100% of the issued and outstanding Shares, including pursuant to the Mergers and (b) the Second Step Distribution having been made and the Liquidation having been completed.

Post-Offer Reorganization

Following the later of the Offer Closing and the closing of any Subsequent Offering Period (as it may be extended by the Minority Exit Offering Period), Stryker or Purchaser may but is not required to, effectuate or cause to be effectuated a Post-Offer Reorganization. The Post-Offer Reorganization will be (a) one of (i) the Asset Sale, Liquidation and Second Step Distribution, (ii) the Mergers, (iii) if permissible under applicable law, the Compulsory Acquisition, (iv) an election by Wright pursuant to U.S. Treasury RegulationsSection 301.7701-3 to be classified as a partnership or as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes, (v) the Demerger or (vi) a conversion of Wright into a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) (or any combination of the foregoing) or (b) with Wright’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and if permissible under applicable law, at Stryker’s or Purchaser’s election any of the Post-Offer Reorganizations described in clause (a) or any Alternative Post-Offer Reorganization (as defined below).

Certain Adjustments

In the event that, during the period between the date of the Purchase Agreement and the Expiration Time, the number of outstanding Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares is

83

changed into a different number of shares or securities of a different class as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer or other similar transaction, then the Offer Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be equitably adjusted, without duplication, to reflect such change.

Representations and Warranties

In the Purchase Agreement, Wright has made customary representations and warranties to Stryker and Purchaser that are subject to specified exemptions and qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement and the Wright Disclosure Letter and to certain disclosures in Wright’s SEC filings publicly available at least one business day prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, including representations relating to, among other things: its organization and corporate power; its authorization with respect to the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; its capitalization; its subsidiaries; no breach of its organizational documents, law or its contracts; required consents; its SEC reports and financial statements; internal controls and procedures over disclosures and financial reporting; the absence of undisclosed liabilities; the absence of certain developments; its compliance with laws; its tangible and real properties; tax matters; its material contracts and commitments; intellectual property matters; litigation matters; insurance matters; employee benefit plan matters; environmental matters; employment and labor matters; regulatory matters; brokerage fees; the accuracy of information supplied for purposes of the Offer documents, the Schedule14D-9 and the proxy statement; anti-takeover measures; and the opinion of Wright’s financial advisor with respect to the fairness of the Offer Consideration.

The representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement made by Wright are, in certain cases, modified by “knowledge,” “materiality” and “Wright Material Adverse Effect” qualifiers. For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, with respect to Wright, “knowledge” means the actual knowledge of certain employees of Wright. For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Wright Material Adverse Effect” means any change, effect, event, inaccuracy, occurrence or other matter that, individually or in the aggregate, (a) prevents or materially delays Wright from consummating the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or performing its obligations under the Purchase Agreement or (b) has a material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise), assets, operations, or results of operations of Wright and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, provided, however, that in the case of clause (b), any changes, effects, events, inaccuracies, occurrences, or other matters resulting from any of the following will be disregarded in determining whether a Wright Material Adverse Effect has occurred:

• matters generally affecting the U.S. or foreign economies, financial or securities markets, or matters generally affecting the political, legislative or regulatory conditions in the industry in which Wright and its subsidiaries operate, except to the extent such matters have a disproportionate adverse effect on Wright and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, relative to the impact on other companies in the industry in which Wright and its subsidiaries operate;

• the announcement or pendency of the Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement;

• any change in the market price or trading volume of the Shares; provided, that, this exception will not preclude a determination that a matter underlying such change has resulted in a Wright Material Adverse Effect;

• acts of war or terrorism (or the escalation of the foregoing) or natural disasters, national emergencies, or other similar force majeure events, except to the extent such matters have a disproportionate adverse effect on Wright and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, relative to the impact on other companies in the industry in which Wright and its subsidiaries operate;

• changes in GAAP, laws, regulations or accounting principles, or interpretations thereof, except to the extent such changes have a disproportionate adverse effect on Wright and its subsidiaries, taken as a

84

whole, relative to the impact on other companies in the industry in which Wright and its subsidiaries operate;

• any action taken by Wright expressly required to be taken by the terms of the Purchase Agreement;

• any action taken by Wright at the express written request of Stryker or Purchaser after the date of the Purchase Agreement; or

• any failure by Wright to meet any internal or analyst projections or forecasts or estimates of revenues, earnings, or other financial metrics for any period; provided, that, this exception will not preclude a determination that a matter underlying such failure has resulted in a Wright Material Adverse Effect.

Additionally, the Purchase Agreement provides, among other things, that Wright has represented that the Wright Board, at a meeting duly called and held, has unanimously (a) determined that the Purchase Agreement and certain of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are in the best interests of Wright, its business and its shareholders, employees and other relevant stakeholders, (b) approved and adopted the Purchase Agreement (including the execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Agreement) and approved certain transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and (c) resolved, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to support the Offer and certain other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and to recommend acceptance of the Offer by the shareholders of Wright and to recommend approval and adoption of the shareholder approvals at the Extraordinary General Meeting (such recommendation, the “Wright BoardRecommendation”) and that such recommendation is not required to be conditioned on works council consultation or approval.

In the Purchase Agreement, Stryker and Purchaser have also made customary representations and warranties to Wright that are subject to specified exemptions and qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement. Purchaser’s representations and warranties are, in certain cases, modified by “knowledge,” “materiality” and “Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.” For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Purchaser Material Adverse Effect” means any change, effect, event, inaccuracy, occurrence or other matter that has a material adverse effect on the ability of Stryker or Purchaser to perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or on the consummation of, whether by prevention or material delay, any of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

Purchaser’s representations and warranties include representations relating to, among other things: the organization and corporate power of Stryker and Purchaser; the authorization of Stryker and Purchaser with respect to the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; no breach of Stryker’s or Purchaser’s organizational documents or law; required consents; litigation matters; the accuracy of information supplied for purposes of the Offer documents, the Schedule14D-9 and the proxy statement; brokerage fees; operations of Purchaser; lack of ownership of Shares by Stryker, Purchaser or their subsidiaries; Stryker and Purchaser having, at the Offer Closing, all funds necessary to consummate the Offer Closing; and the absence of other agreements with any member of the Wright Board or officers or employees of Wright or its subsidiaries.

None of the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement will survive the Acceptance Time.

No Solicitation

Wright has agreed that it will not, will cause its subsidiaries not to, and will instruct (and use it reasonable best efforts to cause) its representatives not to:

• directly or indirectly initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of providing information) any inquiries, proposals or offers, or the making of any submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that, in each case, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal;

• directly or indirectly engage in, enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any person (or its representatives) making an Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer that, in each case, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; or

• provide any information or afford access to the properties of Wright or its subsidiaries to, or take any other action to knowingly assist or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any effort by any person (other than Stryker, Purchaser or any representatives of Stryker or Purchaser) in a manner that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or in connection with or in response to any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal.

Wright has also agreed that it will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, and will instruct (and use it reasonable best efforts to cause) its representatives to, (a) immediately cease any activities, solicitation, discussions or negotiations with any person (or its representatives) (other than Stryker, Purchaser or any representatives of Stryker or Purchaser) with respect to any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (b) to the extent Wright has the right to do so, will, within one business day of the date of the Purchase Agreement, request the return or destruction of all confidential information provided by or on behalf of Wright or its subsidiaries to any such person (or its representatives) and (c) terminate, within one business day of the date of the Purchase Agreement, access to any such person (or its representatives) any physical or electronic data rooms relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal. Subject to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement, Wright and its representatives may in any event inform a person that has made an Acquisition Proposal about thenon-solicitation provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

If, at any time following the date of the Purchase Agreement and prior to the Acceptance Time, (a) Wright has received a written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach of thenon-solicitation provisions of the Purchase Agreement and (b) the Wright Board determines, in good faith, after consultation with

89

its outside counsel and financial advisor, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to or result in a Superior Proposal (as defined below), then Wright may (i) furnish information with respect to Wright and its subsidiaries to the person making such Acquisition Proposal and its representatives and (ii) participate in discussions or negotiations with such person and its representatives regarding such Acquisition Proposal, provided that (x) Wright will not, and will instruct (and use it reasonable best efforts to cause) its representatives not to, disclose anynon-public information to such person (or its representatives) unless Wright has, or first enters into, a confidentiality agreement with such person with confidentiality provisions that, taken as a whole, are not less restrictive to the other Person than those contained in the confidentiality agreement between Stryker and Wright and (y) Wright will, substantially concurrently, and in any event within one business day, provide or make available to Stryker any information concerning Wright or its subsidiaries provided or made available to such other person (or any of its representatives) that was not previously provided or made available to Stryker and Purchaser.

Wright will not, and will cause its representatives not to, release any person from, or waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission under or fail to enforce, any standstill provision in any agreement to which Wright is a party, provided that, if the Wright Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law, Wright may waive any such standstill provision to the extent necessary to permit the applicable person (if such person has not been solicited in material breach of thenon-solicitation provisions of the Purchase Agreement) to make, on a confidential basis to the Wright Board, an Acquisition Proposal, conditioned upon such person agreeing that Wright will not be prohibited from providing any information to Stryker (including regarding any such Acquisition Proposal) in accordance with, and otherwise complying with, thenon-solicitation provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

Wright is required to promptly (and in any event within one business day after receipt thereof) notify Stryker of (a) the receipt by Wright of an Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or any requests for information, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued related to the foregoing and (b) the terms and conditions of any Acquisition Proposal (including a copy of such Acquisition Proposal) and any such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact. Wright has agreed to keep Stryker reasonably informed, on a prompt basis (and, in any case, within one business day of any significant development, discussions or negotiations) as to the status of such Acquisition Proposal or such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact, including by promptly (and in no event later than one business day) (i) disclosing to Stryker the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal or such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact and (ii) providing to Stryker complete, unredacted copies of any correspondence, proposals, indications of interest and/or draft and final agreements (including schedules, exhibits and any other written materials related thereto (including any financing commitments received)) (and comments thereon) exchanged between Wright or its subsidiaries or any of its or its subsidiaries’ representatives, on the one hand, and the person (or any of its representatives) making such Acquisition Proposal or such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact, on the other hand.

For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” means any offer or proposal (whether or not in writing) made or renewed by a person or group (other than Stryker or Purchaser) at any time after the date of the Purchase Agreement relating to, or that would reasonably be likely to lead to, any person or group acquiring, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of 15% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of Wright (or of any resulting parent company of Wright ) or assets representing 15% or more of the consolidated revenues, net income or total assets of Wright and its subsidiaries, pursuant to a merger, consolidation, joint-venture, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or other business combination, sale of share capital, sale, license or other transfer or disposition of assets, tender offer or exchange offer, or similar transaction, including any single or multi-step transaction or series of related transactions, in each case, other than the Offer, Asset Sale, Compulsory Acquisition, Liquidation, Second Step Distribution and the Mergers.

For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means a written Acquisition Proposal (provided that for purposes of this definition, references to “15% or more” in the definition of “Acquisition

90

Proposal” will be deemed to be references to “more than 50%”) that did not result from a material breach of thenon-solicitation provisions of the Purchase Agreement that (a) the Wright Board determines in good faith is reasonably likely to be consummated on the terms proposed and (b) the Wright Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor, is more favorable to Wright, and its shareholders, employees and other stakeholders than the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement after giving effect to any changes to the Purchase Agreement proposed by Stryker in response to such Acquisition Proposal.

Wright has agreed that the Wright Board and each committee thereof will not (a) approve or adopt, or permit Wright or any of its subsidiaries to (and neither Wright nor any of its subsidiaries will) enter into or execute, any binding ornon-binding letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, option agreement, merger agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement relating to or that would reasonably be expected to lead to (other than a confidentiality agreement pursuant to thenon-solicitation covenant) an Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) or publicly propose to take such action or (b) make a Change of Board Recommendation.

For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Change of Board Recommendation” means:

• the withdrawal or modification or qualification of the Wright Board Recommendation or any public proposal to withdraw, modify or qualify the Wright Board Recommendation;

• the approval, authorization or recommendation by the Wright Board or any committee thereof of any Acquisition Proposal or any public proposal by the Wright Board or any committee thereof to approve, authorize or recommend any Acquisition Proposal;

• the failure to include the Wright Board Recommendation in the Schedule14D-9 or in the proxy statement when disseminated to the holders of Shares;

• the failure by Wright, within 10 business days of the public announcement of the commencement of a tender or exchange offer for Shares that constitutes an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal) by a person other than Stryker or any of its subsidiaries, to file a Schedule14D-9 pursuant to Rule14e-2 and Rule14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act recommending that the holders of the Shares reject such Acquisition Proposal and not tender any Shares into such tender or exchange offer; or

• the failure by the Wright Board to publicly reaffirm the Wright Board Recommendation within 10 business days after receiving a written request from Stryker to provide such public reaffirmation following public disclosure of an Acquisition Proposal (or, if earlier (but still, after a written request delivered by Stryker to Wright at least 48 hours prior to the then-scheduled Expiration Time, or the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, as applicable), prior to the then-scheduled Expiration Time, or the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, as applicable), provided, that, Stryker may deliver only one such request with respect to any Acquisition Proposal subject to this clause (it being understood that any change to the financial terms or any other material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal, will constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for this purpose).

Prior to the Acceptance Time, Wright may make a Change of Board Recommendation and terminate the Purchase Agreement to enter into a definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (so long as prior to or concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, such termination, Wright pays to Stryker the termination fee described below) if:

• Wright receives a written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach of thenon-solicitation provisions of the Purchase Agreement, and the Wright Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor, constitutes a Superior Proposal;

91

• the Wright Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to take any such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law;

• Wright has notified Stryker in writing that it intends to terminate the Purchase Agreement to enter into such Alternative Acquisition Agreement and provided Stryker a copy of the proposed definitive agreement (and related agreements);

• Wright has negotiated, and has instructed (and will have used it reasonable best efforts to cause) its representatives to negotiate, in good faith, with Stryker and its representatives during the four or two business day notice period, as applicable, to the extent Stryker requests to negotiate, to enable Stryker to revise the terms of the Purchase Agreement in such a manner that would cause such Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and

no earlier than the end of the four or two business day notice period, as applicable, the Wright Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor), after taking into consideration the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to the Purchase Agreement that Stryker has committed in writing to make during the four or two business day notice period, as applicable, that (a) the relevant Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and (b) that the failure to take any such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law

In addition, prior to the Acceptance Time, Wright may, other than in connection with or relating to an Acquisition Proposal, make a Change of Board Recommendation in response to an Intervening Event (as defined below) if:

• the Wright Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to take any such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law;

• Wright has notified Stryker in writing that it intends to effect a Change of Board Recommendation (which notice will reasonably specify the facts and circumstances providing the basis of the Intervening Event and for the Wright Board’s determination to effect the Change of Board Recommendation);

• Wright has negotiated, and has instructed (and will have used it reasonable best efforts to cause) its representatives to negotiate, in good faith, with Stryker and its representatives during the four business day notice period, to the extent Stryker requests to negotiate, to enable Stryker to revise the terms of the Purchase Agreement in such a manner that would eliminate the need for taking such action; and

• no earlier than the end of the four business day notice period, the Wright Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel), after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to the Purchase Agreement that Stryker has committed in writing to make during the four business day notice period, that the failure to effect a Change of Board Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law.

For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Intervening Event” means a material change, effect, event, circumstance, occurrence or other matter that was not known to the Wright Board or any committee thereof on the date of the Purchase Agreement (or if known, the consequences of which were not known to the Wright Board or any committee thereof as of the date of the Purchase Agreement), which change, effect, event, circumstance, occurrence or other matter, or any consequence thereof, becomes known to the Wright Board or any committee thereof prior to the Acceptance Time, provided, that in no event will any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal constitute an Intervening Event.

The Purchase Agreement does not prohibit Wright or the Wright Board or a committee thereof from (a) taking and disclosing to the holders of Shares a position contemplated by Rule14e-2(a) and Rule14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or (b) making any disclosure if the Wright Board determines, in good faith,

92

after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to make such statement would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law, provided that any such disclosure (other than issuance by Wright of a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) that does not expressly reaffirm the Wright Board Recommendation will be deemed to be a Change of Board Recommendation.

Compensation Arrangements

Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Compensation Committee of the Wright Board will take all actions that may be required to approve, as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule14d-10(d)(2) promulgated under the Exchange Act, any and all Compensation Actions taken after January 1 of the current fiscal year and prior to the Acceptance Time that have not already been so approved, where “Compensation Action” means any (a) granting by Wright or its subsidiaries to any present or former director or officer of any increase in compensation or benefits or of the right to receive any severance or termination compensation or benefit; (b) entry by Wright or its subsidiaries into any employment, consulting, indemnification, termination, change of control,non-competition or severance agreement with any present or former director or officer, or any approval, amendment, or modification of any such agreement; or (c) approval of, amendment to, or adoption of any a Wright employee benefit plan.

Delisting

Wright has agreed that prior to the Offer Closing it will, at Purchaser’s request, cooperate with Stryker and Purchaser and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable laws and rules and policies of the Nasdaq to cause the delisting of Wright and the Shares from the Nasdaq as promptly as practicable after the Offer Closing and the deregistration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

Anti-Takeover Measures

Wright and the Wright Board (and any applicable committees thereof) will take all actions necessary so that no anti-takeover measure is or becomes applicable to any of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. If any anti-takeover measure becomes applicable to any of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Wright and the Wright Board (and any applicable committees thereof) will grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that any such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate such anti-takeover measures in respect of such transactions.

Director and Officer Liability

For a period of six years after the Offer Closing, Wright will, and Stryker will cause Wright to, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of Wright’s organizational documents as in effect immediately prior to the Offer Closing solely with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Offer Closing and will not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any present (as of the Offer Closing) or former director or officer of Wright.

In addition, Stryker and Purchaser will, jointly and severally, from and after the Offer Closing, indemnify and hold harmless Wright, its subsidiaries and each present (as of the Offer Closing) or former director or officer of Wright against any liability for or on account of tax in connection with a Post-Offer Reorganization, including all obligations to pay a judgment, settlement, or penalty and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any action in relation thereto, provided that, any such indemnity will be limited to taxes incurred in such person’s capacity as a director or officer of Wright and not as a holder of Shares or other equity of Wright.

93

Wright may purchase prior to the Offer Closing, and if Wright does not purchase prior to the Offer Closing, Stryker will use reasonable best efforts to cause Wright to purchase at or after the Offer Closing, a tail policy under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained at such time by Wright in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Offer Closing, which tail policy (a) will be effective for a period from the Offer Closing through and including the date six years after the Offer Closing with respect to claims arising from facts or events that existed or occurred prior to or at the Offer Closing and (b) will contain coverage that is at least as protective to such directors and officers as the coverage provided by such existing policies, provided, that, the premium for such tail policy may not be (and Stryker will not be required to cause Wright to expend) in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to the Offer Closing. Stryker will cause any such policy to be maintained in full force and effect for their full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by Wright.

Employee Matters

For a period beginning on the date of the Offer Closing and ending on the first anniversary of such date or such earlier date as a Current Employee’s (as defined below) employment terminates, Stryker will or will cause Wright and its subsidiaries to, maintain for each individual who is employed by Wright or its subsidiaries at the Offer Closing (each, a “Current Employee”):

• base compensation and target annual cash incentive compensation or bonus opportunity (but subject to applicable adjustments to performance goals following the Offer Closing) that are at least as favorable as that provided to such Current Employee immediately prior to the Offer Closing;

• benefits that are at least as favorable in the aggregate to those benefits (excluding equity or equity-related awards and any defined benefit pension benefits) provided to such Current Employee immediately prior to the Offer Closing; and

• severance benefits that are at least as favorable as the severance benefits (excluding equity or equity-related severance benefits) provided to such Current Employee immediately prior to the Offer Closing.

Prior to the Acceptance Time, Wright may pay to each Current Employee who is employed by Wright or one of its subsidiaries at the time of such payments the following cash bonuses:

• at the time such bonuses are typically paid, up to an amount due to such Current Employee under Wright’s annual bonus program assuming the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of “target” or actual performance in 2019;

• up to an amount due to such Current Employee under Wright’s annual bonus program assuming if the Acceptance Time occurs in 2020, the achievement of applicable performance metrics at “target” in 2020 with such amount beingpro-rated for the portion of the year prior to the Acceptance Time; and

• up to an amount due to such Current Employee under Wright’s annual bonus program assuming if the Acceptance Time occurs in 2021, (a) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of “target” or actual performance in 2020 and (b) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at “target” in 2021 with such amount beingpro-rated for the portion of the year prior to the Acceptance Time.

Each Current Employee will be credited with his or her years of service for purposes of eligibility, vesting and level of benefits under the employee benefit plans of Stryker, Wright and its other subsidiaries (excluding for benefit accrual purposes under any defined benefit plan) that such Current Employees may be eligible to participate in after the Offer Closing, to the same extent as such service was taken into account under any comparable Wright benefit plan immediately prior to the date of the Offer Closing. In addition, Stryker will not subject Current Employees to any eligibility requirements,actively-at-work requirements,pre-existing condition limitations or waiting periods under any employee benefit plan of Stryker, Wright or its other subsidiaries for any

94

condition for which the Current Employee would have been entitled to coverage under a corresponding benefit plan of Wright prior to the Offer Closing, and if Current Employees commence participating in employee benefit plans of Stryker, Wright and other subsidiaries other than on the first day of a plan year, Stryker will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide credit under such benefit plans for any expenses incurred by Current Employees and their covered dependents under a benefit plan of Wright during the portion of the plan year that includes the Offer Closing for purposes of satisfying any applicable copayments,co-insurance, deductibles, maximumout-of-pocket requirements and otherout-of-pocket expenses or similar requirements under any such plans applicable to Current Employees and their covered dependents in respect of the plan year in which the Offer Closing occurs, subject to Stryker’s receipt of necessary information related to amounts paid by such Current Employees

Regulatory Approvals; Efforts

Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper, or advisable under applicable laws to consummate the Offer by or before the Outside Date. In addition, Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have agreed to, (a) in cooperation and consultation with each other, make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act and all other filings required pursuant to applicable foreign antitrust laws with respect to the Transactions as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event prior to the expiration of any applicable legal deadline (provided that the filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act must be made within 10 business days after the date of the Purchase Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by Wright and Stryker in writing) and (b) to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested (including pursuant to a second or similar request) pursuant to the HSR Act or any other antitrust law. Stryker will, with the reasonable cooperation of Wright, be responsible for making any filing or notification, or draft filing as may be the case, required or advisable under foreign antitrust laws as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of the Purchase Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by Wright and Stryker in writing. Stryker, Purchaser and Wright will also consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with, and provide to each other in advance, any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by, or on behalf of, them in connection with proceedings under or relating to any antitrust laws, provided that Stryker will have the right to devise, control and direct the strategy and timing for, and making of all material decisions relating to (and will take the lead in all meetings and communications with any governmental body relating to), obtaining any consent of a governmental body relating to antitrust laws, including resolving any action related to any such consent.

Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have agreed (a) to furnish to each other such information and assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with obtaining any consent or any action under or relating to antitrust laws or otherwise relating to or to facilitate a Remedy (as defined below), (b) to give each other reasonable advance notice of all meetings with any governmental body relating to any antitrust laws or otherwise relating to or to facilitate a Remedy, (c) to give each other an opportunity to participate in each of such meetings, (d) to the extent practicable, to give each other reasonable advance notice of all substantive oral communications with any governmental body relating to any antitrust laws, (e) if any governmental body initiates a substantive oral communication regarding any antitrust laws, to promptly notify the other party of the substance of such communication, (f) to provide each other with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon all substantive written communications (including any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals) with a governmental body regarding any antitrust laws and (g) to provide each other with copies of all substantive written communications to or from any governmental body relating to any antitrust laws.

Stryker has agreed to, and will cause each of its subsidiaries to, take any and all actions necessary to obtain any consents, clearances or approvals required under or in connection with the HSR Act and any other antitrust laws to enable all applicable waiting periods to expire, and to avoid or eliminate impediments under applicable antitrust laws asserted by any governmental body, in each case, to cause the Offer to be consummated prior to the

95

Outside Date, including if necessary to obtain clearance by any governmental body before the Outside Date, offering, negotiating, committing to, and effecting, by consent decree, hold, separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of any and all of the capital stock, assets, equity holdings, rights, products or businesses of Stryker and its subsidiaries (including Wright and its subsidiaries), and any other restrictions on the activities of Stryker and its subsidiaries (including Wright and its subsidiaries) (the foregoing, a “Remedy”). To assist Stryker in complying with such obligations, Wright will (and will cause its subsidiaries to) enter into one or more agreements requested by Stryker to be entered into by any of them prior to the Offer Closing with respect to a Remedy. Without Stryker’s prior written consent, Wright will not (and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to) take or cause to be taken, do or cause to be done, offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy. Notwithstanding anything in the Purchase Agreement to the contrary, (a) Stryker’s obligation to (and to cause its subsidiaries (including for this purpose, Wright and its subsidiaries) to) offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy or Remedies will be limited to (i) total ankle replacement products and services and (ii) other products and services that represented, individually or in the aggregate, less than $25 million of annual revenue generated during the 2018 fiscal year and (b) Stryker will not be required to (or to cause its subsidiaries (including for this purpose, Wright and its subsidiaries) to) offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy or Remedies other than those required pursuant to clause (a).

In the event that any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a governmental body challenging any transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Stryker, Purchaser and Wright will cooperate in all respects with each other and will use their reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction, decision or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of such transactions.

Litigation

Except as otherwise set forth in the Purchase Agreement with regards to regulatory approvals, Wright will control any action brought against Wright or any of its subsidiaries or their directors or officers relating to or in connection with the Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, provided that (a) Wright will notify Stryker as soon as possible of such actions, (b) Wright will consult with Stryker regarding the defense of any such actions, and Stryker will have a right to participate in such defense and (c) Wright will not compromise or settle or offer to compromise or settle any such actions without the prior written consent of Stryker (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

Financing Cooperation

Wright has agreed to, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective representatives to, on a timely basis, provide reasonable cooperation requested in writing by Stryker that is customary in connection with the arrangement, marketing, syndication and consummation of any public or private debt financing or any public or private equity offering, including any offering of derivative securities or other securities exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities (and the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to funding thereof) for transactions that are similar to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. The obtaining of any financing is not a condition to the Offer Closing. If financing has not been obtained, Stryker and Purchaser will continue to be obligated, prior to any valid termination of the Purchase Agreement, and subject to the fulfillment or waiver of the conditions of the Offer, to complete the Offer and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

Treatment of Certain Wright Indebtedness

Wright has agreed not to make any change to the terms of the indentures governing its Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (which matured on February 15, 2020), Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 and Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) without the prior written

96

consent of Stryker. In addition, Wright and its subsidiaries will take all actions as may be required in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of such indentures including, without limitation, delivery, issuance or entry into, as applicable, of any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, legal opinions, officers’ certificates or other documents or instruments required to comply with such indentures. At the Offer Closing, Wright will take all necessary action to perform and comply with all of its obligations under the indentures governing its Convertible Notes within the time periods required thereby, provided that any opinions of counsel required by such indentures, or as may be required by the trustee pursuant to such indentures, will be delivered by Wright and its counsel to the extent required to be delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. In addition, Wright has agreed to take all commercially reasonable actions requested by Stryker in connection with making elections under, amending, obtaining waivers, and/or unwinding or otherwise settling the hedge and warrant transactions associated with the Convertible Notes.

Other Covenants

The Purchase Agreement contains other customary covenants and agreements, including, but not limited to, covenants related to access to information, confidentiality, public announcements and notification of certain matters.

Termination of the Purchase Agreement

The Purchase Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement may be abandoned at any time prior to the Acceptance Time:

• by mutual written consent of Wright and Stryker;

Stryker will cause the Offer to be terminated immediately after any termination of the Purchase Agreement.

98

Termination Fee

Wright has agreed to pay Stryker a termination fee of $150 million (the “Termination Fee”) if:

• the Purchase Agreement is terminated by Wright pursuant to an Alternative Acquisition Agreement Termination;

• the Purchase Agreement is terminated by Stryker pursuant to a Change of Board Recommendation Termination; or

Governing Law, Jurisdiction

The Purchase Agreement and any action arising out of or relating to the Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware. Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have (a) expressly and irrevocably submitted to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or if such Court of Chancery lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, in the event any dispute arises out of the Purchase Agreement, the Offer, or the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (b) agreed not to attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (c) agreed not to bring any action relating to the Purchase Agreement, the Offer, or the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or if such Court of Chancery lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware.

Specific Performance

Stryker, Purchaser and Wright have agreed that in the event of any breach of the Purchase Agreement, irreparable harm would occur that monetary damages could not make whole and that accordingly each party will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity, to compel specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of the Purchase Agreement in any action without the posting of a bond or undertaking.

Conditions to the Closing of the Offer

Purchaser is not required to accept for payment or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule14e-l(c) under the Exchange Act (relating to Purchaser’s obligation to pay for or return tendered Shares promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer), to pay for any Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in connection with the Offer, unless, immediately prior to the then

99

applicable Expiration Time, each of the following conditions to the Offer has been satisfied or waived (to the extent such waiver is permitted by applicable law and the terms of the Purchase Agreement):

(a) the Minimum Condition;

(b) the Regulatory Clearance Condition;

(c) the Legal Restraints Condition;

(d) (a) Wright has not breached or failed to comply in any material respect with any of its agreements or covenants to be performed or complied with by it under the Purchase Agreement on or before the Acceptance Time, (b) the representations and warranties of Wright contained in the Purchase Agreement (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authorization; Valid and Binding Agreement), Section 3.3(a), the first sentences of Section 3.3(b) and Section 3.3(c), Sections 3.3(d)-(f) and Section 3.3(h) (to the extent it relates to Wright, its share capital or other interests therein) (Capitalization), Section 3.5(a)(i) (No Breach), the first sentence of Section 3.9 (Absence of Certain Developments), Section 3.21 (Brokerage), Section 3.23 (Anti-Takeover Measures) and Section 3.24 (Opinion) of the Purchase Agreement) and that (i) are not made as of a specific date are true and correct as of the Expiration Time, as though made on and as of the Expiration Time and (ii) are made as of a specific date are true as of such date, in each case, except, in the case of (i) or (ii), where the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality” or “Wright Material Adverse Effect”) has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Wright Material Adverse Effect, (c) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authorization; Valid and Binding Agreement), Section 3.3(a), the first sentence of Section 3.3(c), Sections 3.3(d)-(f) and Section 3.3(h) (to the extent it relates to Wright, its share capital or other interests therein) (Capitalization), Section 3.5(a)(i) (No Breach), the first sentence of Section 3.9 (Absence of Certain Developments) and Section 3.23 (Anti-Takeover Measures) of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all respects, except in the case of Section 3.3(a), the first sentence of Section 3.3(c), Sections 3.3(d)-(f) and Section 3.3(h) (to the extent it relates to Wright, its share capital or other interests therein) (Capitalization) of the Purchase Agreement for de minimis inaccuracies, as of the Expiration Time as though made on and as of such date and time (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty is so true and correct or (d) the representations and warranties set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.3(b) (Capitalization), Section 3.21 (Brokerage) and Section 3.24 (Opinion) of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the Expiration Time as though made on and as of such date and time (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty is so true and correct as of such earlier date) (collectively, the “Wright No Breach Condition”);

(e) the Material Adverse Effect Condition;

(f) Wright has delivered to Stryker a certificate dated as of the Expiration Time signed on behalf of Wright by a senior executive officer of Wright to the effect that the Wright No Breach Condition and the Material Adverse Effect Condition have been satisfied as of the Expiration Time;

(g) the resignations of the existing members of the Wright Board as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement have been obtained;

(h) the Governance Resolutions Condition; and

(i) the Purchase Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to its terms.

the foregoing conditions are for the benefit of Stryker and Purchaser and (except for the Minimum Condition and the condition set forth in the last bullet above) may be waived (where permitted by applicable law) by Stryker or Purchaser in whole or in part at any time or from time to time prior to the Expiration Time, in each

100

case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The foregoing conditions are in addition to, and not a limitation of, the rights and obligations of Purchaser to extend, terminate, amend and/or modify the Offer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Each of the foregoing conditions is independent of any of the other foregoing conditions; the exclusion of any event from a particular condition does not mean that such event may not be included in another condition. Neither Purchaser nor Stryker may assert that any of the foregoing conditions have not been satisfied if the circumstances giving rise to such condition having not been satisfied resulted from the action or inaction of Purchaser or Stryker. If Purchaser waives a material condition of the Offer, Purchaser will disseminate additional tender offer materials and extend the Offer if and to the extent required by Rules14d-4(d)(1),14d-6(c), and14e-1 under the Exchange Act.

With respect to the Minimum Condition, in order to comply with U.S. tender offer rules, if Purchaser waives (in whole or in part with the written consent of Wright) the Minimum Condition, or the threshold contemplated by the Minimum Condition changes (to the extent contemplated under the Purchase Agreement and described in the definition of “Minimum Condition”), prior to the expiration of the Offer (including during any extension of the Expiration Time), then at least five business days prior to the Expiration Time (as it may be extended pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and as described in the Offer to Purchase), Purchaser will announce such waiver or change of the Minimum Condition and amend the Schedule TO and the Offer to Purchase to reflect such waiver or change, including, if applicable, the effect of any change to the ownership percentage that Purchaser and Stryker may own after the offer. Such an announcement of any waiver of or change in the threshold applicable under the Minimum Condition will be made by Purchaser in a press release, which will state the exact percentage threshold applicable under the Minimum Condition (in the case of change of the threshold applicable under the Minimum Condition) and will advise Wright shareholders to withdraw their tendered Shares immediately if their willingness to tender their Shares into the Offer would be affected by such waiver or change of the Minimum Condition. During the five business day period after Purchaser makes the announcement described in this paragraph, the Offer will remain open and holders of Shares who have tendered their Shares in the Offer will be entitled to withdraw their Shares. Once the Expiration Time has occurred, holders of Shares will not be entitled to withdraw their tendered Shares.

Interests of the Directors and Executive Officers of Wright in the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement

When considering the recommendation of the Wright Board that you vote to adopt each of the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals, you should be aware that certain members of Wright management and the Wright Board may be deemed to have certain interests in the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement that are different from or in addition to the interests of Wright shareholders generally, as more fully described below. The Wright Board was aware of these interests and considered that such interests may be different from or in addition to the interests of Wright shareholders generally, among other matters, in determining to approve the Purchase Agreement, the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and in recommending that the Extraordinary General Meeting Proposals be adopted by the shareholders of Wright. For the purpose of each of the Wright plans and agreements described below, the consummation of the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement will constitute a “change in control,” “change of control” or term of similar meaning with respect to Wright.

Insurance and Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers

For a period of six years after the Offer Closing, Wright will, and Stryker will cause Wright to, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of Wright’s organizational documents as in effect immediately prior to the Offer Closing solely with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Offer Closing and will not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any present (as of the Offer Closing) or former director or officer of Wright.

101

In addition, Stryker and Purchaser will, jointly and severally, from and after the Offer Closing, indemnify and hold harmless Wright, its subsidiaries and each present (as of the Offer Closing) or former director or officer of Wright against any liability for or on account of tax in connection with a Post-Offer Reorganization, including all obligations to pay a judgment, settlement, or penalty and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any action in relation thereto, provided that, any such indemnity will be limited to taxes incurred in such person’s capacity as a director or officer of Wright and not as a holder of Shares or other equity of Wright.

Wright may purchase prior to the Offer Closing, and if Wright does not purchase prior to the Offer Closing, Stryker will use reasonable best efforts to cause Wright to purchase at or after the Offer Closing, a tail policy under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained at such time by Wright in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Offer Closing, which tail policy (a) will be effective for a period from the Offer Closing through and including the date six years after the Offer Closing with respect to claims arising from facts or events that existed or occurred prior to or at the Offer Closing and (b) will contain coverage that is at least as protective to such directors and officers as the coverage provided by such existing policies, provided, that, the premium for such tail policy may not be (and Stryker will not be required to cause Wright to expend) in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to the Offer Closing. Stryker will cause any such policy to be maintained in full force and effect for their full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by Wright.

Treatment of Stock Options

The Purchase Agreement provides that each option to acquire Shares, other than awards under the Wright ESPP (each such option, a “Stock Option”) (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time will vest in full at the Acceptance Time (except for, if the Offer Closing does not occur prior to July 1, 2020, Stock Options granted after July 1, 2020 (“2020 Stock Options”), which will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 Stock Option that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor). All unexercised Stock Options outstanding (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that are vested immediately prior to the Offer Closing will be cancelled, and, in exchange for such cancelled Stock Options, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Offer Consideration over the per Share exercise price of the respective Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the total number of Shares subject to the unexercised Stock Option they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing.

102

The approximate value of the cash payments that each director and executive officer of Wright will be entitled to receive in exchange for the cancellation of his or her Stock Options (assuming that each such director and executive officer does not otherwise exercise any outstanding and vested Stock Options prior to the Offer Closing) is set forth in the table below. This information is based on the number of Stock Options held by Wright’s directors and executive officers as of February 19, 2020.

Treatment of Restricted Stock Units

The Purchase Agreement provides that each RSU that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) will vest in full at the Acceptance Time (except, if the Offer Closing does not occur prior to July 1, 2020, for RSUs granted after July 1, 2020 (“2020 RSUs”), which will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 RSU that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor). At the Offer Closing, all outstanding RSUs that are vested will be cancelled and, in exchange for such cancelled RSUs, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the total number of Shares deliverable under the RSUs they hold immediately prior to the Offer Closing multiplied by the Offer Consideration.

In the event the Offer Closing has not occurred prior to July 1, 2020, Wright may issue equity awards in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices to employees who have historically received equity grants, with any such awards that are so granted having the same terms and being granted at the same time as equity awards were granted by Wright in July 2019. No such award to an individual shall have a grant date value greater than the grant made to such individual by Wright in July 2019 and no such awards may be PSUs or otherwise subject to performance-based vesting conditions. A portion of such awards will vest at Closing on a pro rata basis based on the number of days of the vesting period that occur between the grant date and Acceptance Time and the holder thereof will be entitled to payment for such vested awards in a manner consistent with that described for other awards above, provided that any portion of an award that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled without consideration.

Treatment of Wright’s ESPP

The Wright ESPP operated in accordance with its terms and past practice through December 31, 2019, which was the last day of the offering period that was in effect as of the date of the Purchase Agreement. Wright has suspended the commencement of any future offering periods under the Wright ESPP and, unless and until the

106

Purchase Agreement is terminated, no subsequent offering period will commence, and Wright will terminate the Wright ESPP as of the Offer Closing.

Employment and Severance Agreements

Employment Agreement with Mr. Palmisano

Effective October 1, 2015, a subsidiary of Wright entered into an employment agreement with Robert J. Palmisano, Wright’s President and Chief Executive Officer, which provides that in the event of a termination of his employment, the post-employment pay and benefits, if any, to be received by him will vary according to the basis for his termination.

In the event of a termination of Mr. Palmisano’s employment by Wright other than for cause, death or disability or upon Mr. Palmisano’s resignation for good reason (an “Involuntary Termination”), other than as described in the next paragraph, Wright will be required to provide him, in addition to any accrued obligations, and subject to his execution of a release of claims: (i) a lump sum payment equal to two andone-half times the sum of: (a) his then current annual base salary, plus (b) his then current annual target incentive bonus; (ii) payment or reimbursement for the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 12 months; (iii) outplacement assistance for a period of 12 months, subject to earlier termination if Mr. Palmisano accepts employment with another employer; (iv) financial planning services for a period of 12 months; and (v) an annual physical examination within 12 months of termination.

In the event of an Involuntary Termination of his employment in anticipation of or within the24-month period following a “change in control,” Wright will be required to provide him, in addition to any accrued obligations, and subject to his execution of a release of claims: (i) a lump sum payment equal to three times the sum of: (a) his then current annual base salary, plus (b) his then current annual target incentive bonus; (ii) his annual target incentive bonus for the fiscal year in which his termination occurs; (iii) payment or reimbursement for the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 12 months; (iv) outplacement assistance for a period of 12 months, subject to earlier termination if Mr. Palmisano accepts employment with another employer; (v) financial planning services for a period of 12 months; and (vi) an annual physical examination within 12 months of termination.

Upon termination for any reason other than for cause, disability, or death, Mr. Palmisano must enter into a release of claims within 30 days after the date of termination before any post-employment payments or benefits of any kind will be made to him under the employment agreement, other than accrued obligations. If he breaches the terms of his confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation or intellectual property rights agreement, then Wright’s obligations to make payments or provide benefits will cease immediately and permanently, and he will be required to repay an amount equal to 30% of the post-employment payments and benefits previously provided to him under the employment agreement, with interest. The agreement also provides that if any severance payments or other payments or benefits deemed made in connection with a change in control are subject to the “golden parachute” excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, the payments will be reduced to one dollar less than the amount that would subject him to the excise tax if the reduction results in him receiving a greater amount on anet-after tax basis than would be received if he received the payments and benefits and paid the excise tax.

Severance Agreements with Other Executive Officers

A subsidiary of Wright has entered into separation pay agreements with each of the following executive officers (in addition to Mr. Palmisano): Julie Andrews, Jason Asper, Lance Berry, Peter Cooke, Kevin Cordell, Julie Dewey, Patrick Fisher, Tim Lanier, James Lightman, Andrew Morton, J. Wesley Porter, Barry Regan, Kevin Smith, Jennifer Walker and Steven Wallace. Under the terms of the separation pay agreements, except with respect to Mr. Cooke, in the event of a termination of the executive’s employment by Wright other than for

107

cause, death or disability or upon the executive’s resignation for good reason, other than described in the next paragraph, in addition to any accrued obligations, and subject to the executive’s execution of a release of claims, Wright will be obligated to pay to the executive an amount equal to the sum of (i) the executive’s then current annual base salary, plus (ii) the executive’s then current target annual bonus. Half of the of the total severance amount will be payable at or within a reasonable time after the date of termination of the executive’s employment and half paid in six equal monthly installments starting six months after the date of termination of the executive’s employment, with the final installment of all remaining amounts to be paid on or before March 15^th of the calendar year following the year in which the date of termination occurs.

In the event of a termination of the executive’s employment by Wright other than for cause, death or disability or upon the executive’s resignation for good reason within 12 months following a change in control or at the request of the acquirer prior to a change in control, in lieu of the severance above, except with respect to Mr. Cooke, in addition to any accrued obligations, and subject to the executive’s execution of a release of claims, Wright will be obligated to pay an executive an amount equal to two times the sum of (i) the executive’s then current annual base salary, plus (ii) the executive’s then current annual target bonus. Half of the total severance amount will be payable at or within a reasonable time after the date of termination and the remaining half will be payable in installments beginning six months after the date of termination of the executive’s employment, with the final installment of all remaining amounts to be paid on or before March 15^th of the calendar year following the year in which the date of termination occurs.

In addition to a severance payment, if applicable, each executive also will be entitled to receive the following benefits in the event of the termination of the executive’s employment by Wright other than for cause, death or disability or upon the executive’s resignation for good reason, (i) a pro rata portion of the executive’s target annual cash incentive compensation award for the fiscal year that includes the termination date, less any payments thereof already made during such fiscal year; (ii) payment or reimbursement for the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 18 months; (iii) outplacement assistance for a period of two years, subject to earlier termination if the executive accepts employment with another employer; (iv) financial planning services for a period of up to two years; (v) payment to continue insurance coverage equal to up to twice the executive’s annual supplemental insurance premium benefit provided to him or her prior to the date of termination; (vi) an annual physical examination within 12 months of termination; and (vii) reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses if any such fees or expenses are incurred to recover benefits rightfully owed under the separation pay agreement.

Upon termination for any reason other than cause, disability, or death, the executive must enter into a release of claims within 30 days after the date of termination before any payments will be made to the executive under the separation pay agreement, other than accrued obligations. If the executive breaches the terms of a confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation, and intellectual property rights agreement with Wright or the release, then Wright’s obligations to make payments or provide benefits will cease immediately and permanently, and the executive will be required to repay to Wright an amount equal to 90% of the payments and benefits previously provided to the executive under the separation pay agreement, with interest. The separation pay agreement provides that if any severance payments or other payments or benefits deemed made in connection with a future change in control are subject to the “golden parachute” excise tax under Code Section 4999, the payments will be reduced to one dollar less than the amount that would subject the executive to the excise tax if the reduction results in the executive receiving a greater amount on anet-after tax basis than would be received if the executive received the payments and benefits and paid the excise tax.

In addition, under the Purchase Agreement, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, Wright may establish a retention bonus pool in an aggregate amount of up to $8.5 million, from which awards may be allocated among the employees of Wright. Employees at a level of vice president or above shall not be eligible to receive such awards without Stryker’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Employees at a level below vice president shall be eligible for awards in consultation with Stryker, and Wright and Stryker shall agree on the terms of such awards, including the timing of payments, a cap on individual award amounts, and employee positions that may be allocated a retention bonus from such retention bonus pool.

108

Rule 14d-10(d) Matters

The Compensation Committee of the Wright Board will adopt resolutions to approve each agreement, arrangement or understanding that has been or will be entered into after January 1, 2019 and prior to the Acceptance Time by Wright or any of its subsidiaries with any of its officers or directors pursuant to which compensation, severance or other benefits is or becomes payable to such officer or director as an employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement in accordance withRule 14d-10(d)(1) under the Exchange Act.

Employment Agreements Following the Offer

As of the date of this proxy statement, Stryker and Purchaser have informed Wright that none of Wright’s current executive officers have entered into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with Stryker, Purchaser or their affiliates regarding employment with Wright following the Offer Closing. Although it is possible that Stryker may enter into employment or consultancy, compensation, severance or other employee or consultant benefits arrangements with Wright’s executive officers and certain other key employees, as of the date of this proxy statement, no discussions have occurred between Wright’s executive officers and representatives of Stryker, Purchaser or their affiliates regarding any such arrangements, and there can be no assurance that any parties will reach any such agreement.

Director Arrangements Following the Offer

Stryker shall, and shall cause Wright to, continue providing the directors of Wright as of the Offer Closing with services related to the administrative process of filing taxes in the Netherlands, provided that no payment must be made on behalf of the directors, other than necessary withholding payments.

Effect of the Purchase Agreement on Employee Benefits

The Purchase Agreement provides that for the period from the Offer Closing through the earlier of (a) the one year anniversary of the Offer Closing and (b) the date on which the employment of a Current Employee terminates, Stryker will cause Wright and its subsidiaries to provide each Current Employee with (i) base compensation and a target annual cash incentive compensation or bonus opportunity (subject to applicable adjustments to performance goals following the Offer Closing) at least as favorable as that provided to the Current Employee immediately prior to Offer Closing, (ii) benefits that are at least as favorable in the aggregate to the benefits (excluding equity or equity-related awards and defined benefit pension benefits) maintained for and provided to the Current Employee immediately prior to the Offer Closing and (iii) severance benefits that are at least as favorable as the severance benefits (excluding any equity or equity-related severance benefit terms) provided to the Current Employee by Wright immediately prior to the Offer Closing; and in no event will the compensation to be paid or benefits to be provided pursuant to clauses (i)—(iii) be less than the amount required to be paid or benefits provided to such Current Employee under any severance, employment or similar agreement.

Prior to the Acceptance Time and provided that such Current Employee is employed at the time of such payments, Wright may pay to each Current Employee the following cash bonuses: (i) 2019 cash bonuses assuming the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of target or actual performance, (ii) if the Acceptance Time occurs in 2020, Wright may pay each Current Employee a 2020 cash bonus assuming the achievement of applicable performance metrics at target, with such amount pro rated for the period of the 2020 calendar year that occurs prior to the Acceptance Time, and (iii) if the Acceptance Time occurs in 2021, Wright may pay each Current Employee a cash bonus assuming (a) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of target or actual performance in 2020 and (b) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at target in 2021, with such amount pro rated for the period of the 2021 calendar year that occurs prior to the Acceptance Time.

109

Stryker will, and will cause Wright and each of its other subsidiaries to, cause service rendered by Current Employees to Wright and its subsidiaries prior to the Offer Closing to be taken into account for purposes of eligibility, vesting, and levels of benefits (including vacation and severance, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan) and as required by law under all employee benefit plans of Stryker, Wright and its other subsidiaries to the same extent as such service was taken into account under the corresponding Wright employee benefit plans immediately prior to the Offer Closing for those purposes, except to the extent that such application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service. Current Employees will not be subject to any eligibility requirements, waiting periods,actively-at-work requirements orpre-existing condition limitations under any employee benefit plan of Stryker, Wright or its other subsidiaries for any condition for which they would have been entitled to coverage under the corresponding Wright employee benefit plan in which they participated prior to the Offer Closing. Stryker has agreed, and has agreed to cause Wright and its other subsidiaries, to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such Current Employees credit under such employee benefit plans for any eligible expenses incurred by them and their covered dependents under a Wright employee benefit plan during the portion of the year prior to the Offer Closing for purposes of satisfying allco-payment,co-insurance, deductibles, maximumout-of-pocket requirements, and otherout-of-pocket expenses applicable to them and their covered dependents in respect of the plan year in which the Offer Closing occurs, subject to Stryker’s receipt of, using reasonable best efforts to obtain, all necessary information from either Wright or the Current Employee.

If directed in writing by Stryker at least 15 business days prior to the Acceptance Time, Wright will terminate any Wright 401(k) plan. Wright must provide evidence of such termination pursuant to resolutions of the Wright Board effective no later than one day prior to the Offer Closing.

Nothing in the Purchase Agreement prevents Stryker or Wright from amending or terminating any employee benefit plan in accordance with its terms, requires the Stryker or Wright to retain any employee for any period of time, or constitutes the establishment or adoption of, or amendment to, any benefit plan. No employee or other service provider has any third party beneficiary rights under the Purchase Agreement.

Transaction-Related Compensation

The following table sets forth the information required by Item 402(t) of RegulationS-K regarding the compensation for Wright’s named executive officers (“NEOs”) that is based on or otherwise relates to the Offer, assuming that the Offer was consummated on December 29, 2019 and that the NEO’s employment was terminated by Wright without cause or the NEO resigned for good reason (as such terms are defined in the NEO’s employment or separation pay agreement, as applicable) on the same day. The calculations in the table below include amounts the NEOs would receive as payment for cancellation of unvested RSUs, PSUs and Stock Options. The calculation in this table below does not include amounts under contracts, agreements, plans or arrangements to the extent they do not discriminate in scope, terms or operation in favor of executive officers and that are available generally to all of Wright’s salaried employees.

Name	Cash ($)(1)		Equity($)(2)		Perquisites/benefits ($)(3)		Total ($)
Robert J. Palmisano		7,476,409		16,106,992.38		60,191		23,643,592.38

Barry J. Regan		1,645,000		1,469,082.27		109,436		3,223,518.27

(1) The amounts listed in this column represent the amounts payable to the executive officer pursuant to his employment or severance agreement, as applicable, as described below in the section captioned “Executive

110

Compensation” beginning on page 157. The cash payments payable pursuant to these agreements are double-trigger benefits in that they will be paid only if the executive officer experiences a termination of employment without cause or resigns for good reason in connection with or within 12 months following the Closing and only if the executive executes a release of claims, provided that, for Mr. Palmisano, the relevant time period is within 24 months following the Closing. These amounts include, for Mr. Palmisano, three times the sum of his current annual base salary plus annual target incentive bonus for the fiscal year in which his termination occurs, and his annual target incentive bonus for the year of termination, and in the case of the other executives, two times the sum of the executive’s annual base salary plus annual target incentive bonus, and pro rata target bonus for the fiscal year of termination, less any payments thereof already made during such fiscal year. Such amounts are also subject to a clawback of 90% (30% in the case of Mr. Palmisano) of the payments and benefits previously paid (together with interest at the lesser of 10% or the maximumnon-usurious rate permitted by law) if the executive breaches the terms of their confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation, and intellectual property rights agreement with Wright or the release. Mr. Palmisano’s payments are payable as a lump sum on the 60^th day following his termination date, and with respect to the other executives, half of the of the total severance amount will be payable at or within a reasonable time after the date of termination of the executive’s employment and half paid in six equal monthly installments starting six months after the date of termination of the executive’s employment, with the final installment of all remaining amounts to be paid on or before March 15th of the calendar year following the year in which the date of termination occurs. The listed amounts are calculated based on an assumed employment termination date of December 29, 2019.

(2) The amounts listed in this column include the aggregate dollar value of the unvested Stock Options, PSUs and RSUs held by the executives as of December 29, 2019, all of which will vest in full immediately prior to the Acceptance Time and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, as described above in the section captioned “The Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement—Interests of the Directors and Executive Officers of Wright in the Offer and the Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement” beginning on page 101. These payments are single-trigger benefits in that they are not conditioned upon the executive’s termination or resignation. The value of the unvested Stock Options is the difference between the Offer Price Consideration ($30.75 per Share) and the applicable exercise price of the Stock Option, multiplied by the number of unvested Stock Options. The value of unvested RSUs is the Offer Consideration ($30.75 per Share) multiplied by the number of unvested RSUs. The value of unvested PSUs is the Offer Consideration ($30.75 per Share) multiplied by the number of unvested PSUs (assuming achievement at maximum performance levels). For more information, see the table below.

Name	Value of Unvested Stock Options ($)		Value of Unvested RSUs ($)		Value of Unvested PSUs at Maximum Performance ($)

(3) The amounts listed in this column represent the amounts payable to the executive pursuant to his employment or severance pay agreement, as applicable, as described below in the section captioned “Executive Compensation” beginning on page 157. The cash payments payable pursuant to these agreements are double-trigger benefits in that they will be paid only if the executive experiences a termination of employment without “Cause” or “Good Reason” (as such terms are defined in the NEO’s employment or separation pay agreement, as applicable) in connection with or within 12 months following the Closing. These amounts represent, for Mr. Palmisano, up to 12 months of continued Company-paid COBRA continuation coverage, 12 months of outplacement assistance and financial planning services, and an annual physical examination, and for all other executives, up to 18 months of continued Company-paid COBRA continuation coverage, two years of outplacement assistance and financial planning services, continued insurance coverage equal to twice the executive’s annual supplemental insurance premium benefit

111

provided to him or her prior to termination and an annual physical examination. The amounts were determined based on assumptions used for financial reporting purposes under generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“GAAP”).

Acceptance Time of the Offer and the Transactions

The Purchase Agreement provides, among other things, that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Purchaser will (and Stryker will cause Purchaser to), (a) at or as promptly as practicable following the Expiration Time (but in any event within two business days thereafter) accept for payment and (b) at or as promptly as practicable following the Acceptance Time (but in any event within two business days (calculated as set forth in Rule14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act) thereafter), pay for all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as of the Acceptance Time. It is expected that following the Offer Closing, the listing of the Shares on Nasdaq will be terminated, Wright will no longer be a publicly traded company, and the Shares will be deregistered under the Exchange Act, resulting in the cessation of Wright’s reporting obligations with respect to the Shares with the SEC.

Litigation Related to the Transactions

On January 15, 2020, John Thompson, a purported shareholder of Wright, filed a putative class action lawsuit against Wright, members of the Wright Board, Purchaser and Stryker in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, captioned Thompson v. Wright Medical Group N.V., et al.,Case No.1:20-cv-00061 (the “Thompson Complaint”). The Thompson Complaint alleges that Wright and the members of the Wright Board violated federal securities laws and regulations by failing to disclose material information in the Schedule14D-9 in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, which they allege rendered the Schedule14D-9 false and misleading. In addition, the Thompson Complaint alleges that members of the Wright Board and Stryker acted as controlling persons of Wright within the meaning and in violation of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act to influence and control the dissemination of the allegedly defective Schedule14D-9. The Thompson Complaint seeks, among other things, an order enjoining consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; rescission of such transactions if they have already been consummated and rescissory damages; an order directing the Wright Board to file a Schedule14D-9 that does not contain any untrue statements of material fact and that states all material facts required in it or necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading; a declaration that the defendants violated certain federal securities laws and regulations; and an award of plaintiff’s costs, including reasonable allowance for attorneys’ fees and experts’ fees.

On January 31, 2020, William Grubb, a purported shareholder of Wright, filed a putative class action lawsuit against Wright and members of the Wright Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned Grubb v. Wright Medical Group N.V., et al.,Case No.1:20-cv-00553 (the “Grubb Complaint”). The Grubb Complaint makes substantially similar complaints against Wright and the members of the Wright Board as the Thompson Complaint. The Grubb Complaint seeks, among other things, an order enjoining consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; rescission of such transactions if they have already been consummated and rescissory damages; a declaration that the defendants violated certain federal securities laws and regulations; and an award of plaintiff’s costs, including counsel fees and expenses and expert fees.

The summary is not a complete description of all of the tax consequences of the Offer or the Post-Offer Reorganization and in particular, does not address many of the tax considerations that may be relevant to a holder of Shares in light of such holder’s particular circumstances or that may be applicable to holders of Shares that may be subject to special tax rules, including, without limitation: small business investment companies; banks, certain financial institutions or insurance companies; real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies or grantor trusts; dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies; persons that mark their securities to market; cooperatives;tax-exempt entities; retirement plans; certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States; persons that received Shares as compensation for the performance of services; persons that hold Shares as part of a “hedging,” “integrated” or “conversion” transaction or as a position in a “straddle” for U.S. federal income tax purposes; partnerships (including entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or other pass-through entities, or holders that hold Shares through such an entity;S-corporations; persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; persons that own directly, indirectly, or through attribution 10% or more of the voting power or value of the outstanding Shares; persons holding Shares in connection with a trade or business conducted outside the United States; controlled foreign corporations within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code; or passive foreign investment companies within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code (each, a “PFIC”). Moreover, this summary does not address the U.S. federal estate, gift, unearned income Medicare contribution, alternative minimum tax and any other applicablenon-income tax laws, or any applicable state, local ornon-U.S. tax laws.

For purposes of this summary, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Shares that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is (a) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (b) a corporation, or an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized under the laws of the United States, or of any state or the District of Columbia; (c) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (d) a trust, if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons, within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, have authority to control all of the trust’s substantial decisions or (ii) the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This discussion does not address the tax consequences to persons who are not U.S. Holders.

If a partnership, or any other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds Shares, the tax treatment of a person treated as a partner in such partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the partnership’s activities. Accordingly, partnerships or other entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes that hold Shares, and persons treated as partners in such entities, are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the specific U.S. federal income tax consequences to them of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization.

WE URGE YOU TO CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OF THE OFFER AND THE POST-OFFER REORGANIZATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN INCOME, AND OTHER TAX LAWS IN LIGHT OF YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

The Receipt of Cash in Exchange for Shares Pursuant to the Offer.

The exchange of Shares by U.S. Holders for cash pursuant to the Offer will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, a U.S. Holder who exchanges Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer will recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash received (determined before the deduction, if any, of any withholding tax) in exchange for Shares pursuant to the Offer and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Shares. Any such gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if a U.S. Holder’s holding period for such Shares is more than one year. Long-term capital gain recognized by certainnon-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, is generally subject to U.S. federal income tax at preferential rates. The deductibility of a capital loss recognized pursuant to the Offer is subject to certain limitations. If a U.S. Holder acquired different blocks of Shares at different times or different prices, such U.S. Holder must determine its adjusted tax basis and holding period separately with respect to each block of Shares.

The foregoing assumes that Wright is not currently, and has not been a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, the test for determining whether Wright is or has been a PFIC is applied annually and is based upon the composition of Wright’s and certain of its affiliates’ income and assets for such taxable year. If Wright were a PFIC in the current taxable year or in any prior taxable year in which the tendering U.S. Holder has held the Shares, then such U.S. Holder generally would be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to gain recognized on any sale or exchange of such Shares, including an exchange of such Shares pursuant to the Offer, unless such U.S. Holder has in effect certain elections, such as themark-to-market election. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning whether Wright is or has been a PFIC for any given taxable year during which such U.S. Holder has owned Shares and the tax consequences of tendering Shares pursuant to the Offer.

Receipt of Cash in Exchange for Shares Pursuant to the Post-Offer Reorganization.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Post-Offer Reorganization will depend on the exact manner in which it is carried out. However, if a U.S. Holder receives cash for Shares in the Compulsory Acquisition, the Second Step Distribution or the Mergers, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder would generally be the same as described above.

Foreign Tax Credit.

A U.S. Holder may be subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting), as further described in the section of this proxy statement captioned “Certain Material Tax Consequences—Other Taxes and Duties—Certain Other Dutch Tax Aspects Specific to the Post-Offer Reorganization.” Gain or loss, if any, recognized by a U.S. Holder as a result of the cash received for Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Post-Offer Reorganization will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss, as the case may be. Consequently, you may not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from the Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) on the exchange of the Shares unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against tax due on other income treated as derived from foreign sources. Alternatively, you may take a deduction for any Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) imposed if you do not elect to claim a foreign tax credit for any foreign taxes paid during the taxable year. The calculation of deductions and U.S. foreign tax credits involves the application of complex rules and limitations may apply. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor concerning the tax consequences of exchanging Shares pursuant to the Post-Offer Reorganization.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.

A U.S. Holder who exchanges Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Post-Offer Reorganization is subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding unless certain information is provided to the Depositary or an exemption applies.

114

Certain Dutch Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of certain material Dutch tax consequences of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization for the shareholders of Wright whose Shares are tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer or whose Shares are not tendered but who receive cash in the Post-Offer Reorganization. It does not address tax consequences applicable to holders of Options, RSUs or PSUs. The summary is for general information only and does not consider all possible tax considerations or consequences that may be relevant to all categories of investors, some of which may be subject to special treatment under applicable law (such as trusts or other similar arrangements). Shareholders are expressly urged to consult with their tax advisors with regard to the tax consequences of tendering their Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization.

Please note that this summary does not describe the tax considerations for:

(a) Wright shareholders, if such shareholders, or in the case of individuals, his/her partner, certain other relatives or certain persons sharing his/her household, alone or together, directly or indirectly have a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in Wright under the Dutch Personal Income Tax Act 2001 (Wet inkomstenbelasting 2001) or the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969 (Wet op de vennootschapsbelasting 1969). In general, a substantial interest in Wright is considered present if the shareholder, or in the case of individuals, his/her partner, certain other relatives or certain persons sharing his/her household, alone or together, directly or indirectly holds shares representing 5% or more of the total issued and outstanding capital (or the issued and outstanding capital of any class of shares) of Wright and/or is entitled to 5% of Wright’s annual profit, and/or 5% of the proceeds upon liquidation of Wright. A deemed substantial interest arises if a substantial interest (or part thereof) has been disposed of, or is deemed to have been disposed of, on anon-recognition basis.

(b) Wright shareholders that are corporate legal entities that derive benefits from the Shares that are exempt under the participation exemption regime (deelnemingsvrijstelling) or that qualify for participation credit (deelnemingsverrekening) as laid down in the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969 or would have been exempt under the participation exemption regime if such shareholder were a taxpayer in the Netherlands. In general, an interest of 5% or more in the nominalpaid-up share capital of Wright should either qualify for the participation exemption regime or the participation credit regime. A shareholder may also have a qualifying participation if such Wright shareholder does not have a 5% interest but a related entity (a statutorily defined term) does, or if Wright is a related entity (a statutorily defined term) of the Wright shareholder.

(c) Wright shareholders who are individuals and for whom the Shares or any benefit derived from the Shares are attributable to a membership of a management board or a supervisory board, an employment relationship or a deemed employment relationship, the income from which is taxable in the Netherlands.

(d) Pension funds, investment institutions (fiscale beleggingsinstellingen), exempt investment institutions (vrijgestelde beleggingsinstellingen) and other entities that are not subject to or are exempt (in full or in part) from corporate income tax in the Netherlands or any other state.

(e) Wright shareholders who or that are not considered the beneficial owner (uiteindelijk gerechtigde) of these Shares or the benefits derived from or realized in respect of these Shares.

This summary only addresses the Dutch national tax legislation and published regulations, as in effect on the date of this Offer to Purchase and as interpreted in published case law until this date, without prejudice to any amendment introduced at a later date and implemented with or without retroactive effect.

Where this summary refers to the Netherlands, such reference is restricted to the part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands that is situated in Europe and the legislation applicable in that part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

115

Certain Dutch Tax Consequences of the Offer and the Post-Offer Reorganization

Dutch dividend withholding tax

No Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) is due upon a disposal of the Shares pursuant to the Offer.

Dutch Resident Individual Shareholders

An individual shareholder who is resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for Dutch tax purposes will be subject to Dutch personal income tax (inkomstenbelasting) on any gains realized (i.e., the difference, if any, between the amount of cash received and the tax book value) in respect of the Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, or as a result of the Compulsory Acquisition, the Asset Sale and Liquidation or the Mergers at progressive rates up to a maximum of 49.5% if:

(a) the Shares are attributable to an enterprise from which the individual derives a share of the profit, whether as an entrepreneur (ondernemer) or as a person who has aco-entitlement to the net worth (medegerechtigd tot het vermogen) of such enterprise, without being an entrepreneur or a shareholder as defined in the Dutch Personal Income Tax Act 2001; or

(b) such income or capital gains qualify as income from miscellaneous activities (resultaat uit overige werkzaamheden), which includes activities with respect to the Shares that exceed regular, active portfolio management (normaal, actief vermogensbeheer).

If the above mentioned conditions (a) and (b) do not apply to an individual shareholder, the Shares held by such individual shareholder will be taxed under the regime for savings and investments (inkomen uit sparen en beleggen). Irrespective of the actual income or capital gains realized in respect of the Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer (including during the Subsequent Offer Period) or pursuant to the Post-Offer Reorganization, the annual taxable benefit of the assets and liabilities of a Dutch Individual that are taxed under this regime, including the Shares, is set at a percentage of the positive balance of the fair market value of these assets, including the Shares, and the fair market value of these liabilities. For 2020, the percentage increases:

(a) from 1.8% of this positive balance up to €72,797;

(b) to 4.22% of this positive balance of €72,798 up to €1,005,572; and

(c) to a maximum of 5.33% of this positive balance of €1,005.573 or higher.

These percentages will be reassessed every year. No taxation occurs if this positive balance does not exceed a certain threshold (heffingvrij vermogen). The fair market value of assets, including the Shares, and liabilities that are taxed under this regime is measured, in general, exclusively on January 1st of every calendar year. The tax rate under the regime for savings and investments is a flat rate of 30%. The actual benefits derived (including profit distributions and capital gains) are not as such subject to Dutch personal income tax.

Dutch Resident Corporate Shareholders

A shareholder that is an entity (including an association, partnership and mutual fund, in each case

to the extent taxable as a corporate entity) and who is resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for Dutch corporate income tax purposes will generally be subject to Dutch corporate income tax on any gains realized in respect of the Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer or as a result of the Compulsory Acquisition, the Asset Sale and Liquidation or the Mergers, up to a maximum rate of 25%.

Non-Dutch Resident Shareholders

A shareholder that is not a resident or deemed to be a resident of the Netherlands will not be subject to Dutch corporate income tax or personal income tax on any gains realized as a result of the tendering of Shares

116

pursuant to the Offer, as a result of the Compulsory Acquisition, the Asset Sale and Liquidation or the Mergers, provided that:

(a) in the case of anon-Dutch resident shareholder that is not an individual, such shareholder (i) does not derive profits from an enterprise that is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands to which permanent establishment or permanent representative the Shares are attributable or (ii) is not, other than by way of securities, entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise or aco-entitlement to the net worth of an enterprise, which is effectively managed in the Netherlands and to which enterprise the Shares are attributable; or

(b) in the case of anon-Dutch resident shareholder that is an individual, such shareholder (i) does not derive profits from an enterprise or an interest in an enterprise that is, in whole or in part, carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands to which permanent establishment or permanent representative the Shares are attributable, (ii) does not realize income or gains with respect to the Shares that qualify as income from miscellaneous activities in the Netherlands, which include activities with respect to the Shares that exceed regular, active portfolio management or (iii) is not, other than by way of securities, entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise that is effectively managed in the Netherlands and to which enterprise the Shares are attributable.

In the case of anon-Dutch resident shareholder that is taxable in the Netherlands, such shareholder will generally be taxed in the same way as comparable Dutch resident taxpayers, as described above.

Other Taxes and Duties

No Dutch value added tax and no Dutch registration tax, customs duty, stamp duty or any other similar documentary tax or duty will be payable by a shareholder on any payment pursuant to the Offer, the Compulsory Acquisition, the Asset Sale and Liquidation or the Mergers.

Certain Other Dutch Tax Aspects Specific to the Post-Offer Reorganization

Mergers

Stryker and Purchaser have no current intention to require the deduction and withholding of any Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) in respect of any amounts payable upon completion of the Mergers to any Wright shareholders who did not tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer and who do not exercise any Merger Withdrawal Right (as defined below), but such tax deduction and withholding will take place to the extent required under Dutch tax law.

In the event that a Wright shareholder exercises a Merger Withdrawal Right, then any cash compensation paid to such withdrawing Wright shareholder will be subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) at the statutory rate of 15% to the extent that the amount of the cash compensation exceeds the averagepaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes (which amount may be subject to an advance tax clearance by the Dutch tax authorities on the amount ofpaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes) subject to any exemption, reduction or refund that may be available to such withdrawing Wright shareholder. As a result, the net amount received by such withdrawing Wright shareholder may be lower than the amount that they would have received had they tendered their Shares pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period).

Shareholders who are a resident or are deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for Dutch tax purposes can generally credit the Dutch dividend withholding tax against their Dutch income tax or Dutch corporate income tax liability and are generally entitled to a refund of the Dutch dividend withholding tax to the extent the Dutch dividend withholding tax exceeds the amount of the Dutch income tax or Dutch corporate income tax otherwise payable, provided that certain conditions are met.

117

Asset Sale and Liquidation

If the Asset Sale and Liquidation are implemented, Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) will be due at the statutory rate of 15% to the extent that the amount of the Second Step Distribution exceeds the averagepaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes (which amount may be subject to an advance tax clearance by the Dutch tax authorities on the amount ofpaid-in capital on the Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes), subject to any exemption, reduction or refund that may be available to a Wright shareholder under Dutch domestic tax law, tax treaties entered into by the Netherlands or European Union law.

Shareholders who are a resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for Dutch tax purposes, can generally credit the Dutch dividend withholding tax against their Dutch income tax or Dutch corporate income tax liability and are entitled to a refund of the Dutch dividend withholding tax to the extent the Dutch dividend withholding tax exceeds the amount of the Dutch personal income tax or corporate income tax otherwise payable, provided that certain conditions are met.

Compulsory Acquisition

If the Compulsory Acquisition is implemented, no Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting) will be due upon a disposal of the Shares pursuant to the Compulsory Acquisition.

Appraisal Rights

Wright shareholders are not entitled under Dutch law or otherwise to appraisal rights with respect to the Offer. In the event that the Compulsory Acquisition is permissible under applicable law and implemented, the Dutch Court will determine in its sole discretion the price to be paid for thenon-tendered Shares, which price may be greater than, equal to or less than the Offer Consideration. Such price will be increased by Dutch Statutory Interest accrued at the rate applicable in the Netherlands (currently 2% per annum). Thenon-tendering Wright shareholders do not have the right to commence a Compulsory Acquisition proceeding to oblige Stryker or Purchaser to buy their Shares.

In the event the Merger Resolutions are adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting or any subsequent extraordinary general meeting, any Wright shareholder that votes against the Merger Resolutions may exercise its withdrawal right under Dutch law in connection with the First-Step Merger (the “Merger Withdrawal Right”) by filing a request for compensation in accordance with Section 2:333h of the Dutch Civil Code and the common draft terms of the cross-border merger within one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting or subsequent extraordinary general meeting at which the Merger Resolutions were adopted. If the Mergers are then implemented, such compensation would be paid in cash in connection with the consummation of the First-Step Merger. The Merger Resolutions include certain amendments to Wright’s articles of association that fix the cash compensation payable to any such Wright shareholders exercising the Merger Withdrawal Right at an amount per Share equal to the Offer Consideration without interest and less applicable withholding taxes.

Financing of the Offer and the Other Transactions Contemplated by the Purchase Agreement

The Offer is not conditioned upon Purchaser obtaining financing to fund the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer and to fund the Post-Offer Reorganization.

Purchaser estimates that the total amount of funds required for Purchaser to purchase all outstanding Shares in the Offer and to consummate the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, pay related transaction fees and expenses and pay or refinance certain outstanding debt of Wright, including its outstanding convertible notes, in connection with the consummation of the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, will be approximately $5.4 billion. Purchaser anticipates funding such cash requirements from a combination of sources, including (a) available cash and cash equivalents of Stryker and its subsidiaries, (b) proceeds from the sale of debt securities, and/or (c) bank or other debt financings.

118

A portion of Stryker’s available cash was received on December 3, 2019 from the public offering by Stryker of (a) €850,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 0.250% Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), (b) €800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 0.750% Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and (c) €750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 1.000% Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes” and, collectively with the 2024 Notes and 2029 Notes, the “Notes”). Stryker is required to redeem the 2024 Notes and the 2031 Notes in whole and not in part at a special mandatory redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such series, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the special mandatory redemption date, if Stryker does not consummate the Offer on or prior to February 4, 2021, or if, at any time prior to such date, Purchase Agreement is terminated.

Stryker may redeem any series of the Notes at its option, in whole, but not in part, for cash, at any time prior to their respective maturities at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date, if certain tax events occur that would obligate Stryker to pay additional amounts as described in the indenture governing the Notes. In addition, Stryker may redeem each of the 2024 Notes, 2029 Notes and 2031 Notes prior to their respective maturities at its option for cash, any time in whole or from time to time in part, at redemption prices that include accrued and unpaid interest and the applicable make-whole premium, as specified in the indenture governing the Notes.

The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that limit Stryker’s ability to, among other things, incur certain liens securing indebtedness, engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions, and enter into certain consolidations, mergers, conveyances, transfers or leases of all or substantially all of Stryker’s assets. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of the occurrence of both (a) a change of control of Stryker and (b) a downgrade of the Notes below investment grade rating by both Moody’s Investors’ Services, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services within a specified time period, Stryker will be required to make an offer to purchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

BOARD STRUCTURE AND COMPOSITION

We have aone-tier board structure. Our articles of association provide that the number of members of the Wright Board will be determined by the Wright Board, provided that the Wright Board will be comprised of at least one executive director and twonon-executive directors. The Wright Board currently consists of nine directors, one of whom is an executive director and eight of whom arenon-executive directors. With respect to the composition of the Wright Board, under the terms of his employment agreement, we have agreed that Mr. Palmisano will be nominated by the Wright Board for election as an executive director and a member of the Wright Board at each annual general meeting of shareholders.

All eight of ournon-executive directors are “independent directors” under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Independence requirements for service on our audit committee are discussed below under “Audit Committee” and independence requirements for service on our compensation committee are discussed below under “Compensation Committee.” All of ournon-executive directors are independent under the independence definition in the Dutch Corporate Governance Code.

The general meeting of shareholders appoints the members of the Wright Board, subject to a binding nomination to be drawn up by the Wright Board in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Dutch Civil Code. The Wright Board makes the binding nomination based on a recommendation of our nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee. If the list of candidates contains one candidate for each open position to be filled, such candidate will be appointed by the general meeting of shareholders unless the binding nature of the nominations by the Wright Board is set aside by the general meeting of shareholders. The binding nature of nomination(s) by the Wright Board can only be set aside by a vote of at leasttwo-thirds of the votes cast at an annual or extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, provided suchtwo-thirds vote constitutes more thanone-half of our issued share capital. In such case, a new meeting is called at which the resolution for appointment of a member of the Wright Board will require a majority of at leasttwo-thirds of the votes cast representing more thanone-half of our issued share capital.

Members of the Wright Board can at all times be suspended or dismissed by the general meeting of shareholders. A resolution of the general meeting of shareholders to suspend or dismiss a member of the Wright Board, pursuant to a proposal by the Wright Board, requires the affirmative vote of an absolute majority of the votes cast. A resolution of the general meeting of shareholders to suspend or dismiss members of the Wright Board, other than pursuant to a proposal by the Wright Board, requires a majority of at leasttwo-thirds of the votes cast, representing more thanone-half of our issued share capital.

Under our articles of association, our internal rules for the Wright Board, and Dutch law, the members of the Wright Board are collectively responsible for our management, general and financial affairs, and policy and strategy. Our executive director is primarily responsible for managing ourday-to-day affairs as well as other responsibilities that have been delegated to him in accordance with our articles of association and internal rules for the Wright Board. Ournon-executive directors supervise our executive director and our general affairs and provide general advice to him. In performing their duties, our directors are guided by the interests of Wright and, within the boundaries set by relevant Dutch law, must take into account the relevant interests of our stakeholders. The internal affairs of the Wright Board are governed by our internal rules for the Wright Board, a copy of which is available on the Investors—Governance Documents & Charters section of our corporate website atwww.wright.com.

Mr. Stevens serves as our Chairman. The duties and responsibilities of the Chairman include, among others: determining the agenda and chairing the meetings of the Wright Board, managing the Wright Board to ensure that it operates effectively, ensuring that the members of the Wright Board receive accurate, timely and clear information, encouraging active engagement by all the members of the Wright Board, promoting effective relationships and open communication between thenon-executive directors and the executive director, and monitoring effective implementation of the Wright Board’s decisions.

127

Under our internal rules for the Wright Board, meetings of the Wright Board may be held in such locations as the Wright Board determines appropriate. At each meeting, each director has the right to cast one vote and may be represented at a meeting of the Wright Board by a fellow director. The Wright Board may pass resolutions only if a majority of the directors is present or represented at the meeting and all resolutions must be passed by a majority of the directors that have no conflict of interest present or represented. As required by Dutch law, our articles of association provide that when one or more members of the Wright Board is absent or prevented from acting, the remaining members of the Wright Board will be entrusted with the management of Wright. 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 Wright Board (or, in the event there are no such remaining members, a person appointed by our shareholders at a general meeting) will be entitled to manage Wright, notwithstanding the general requirement that otherwise requires a majority of the Wright Board in office to be present. In these limited circumstances, our articles of association permit the Wright Board to pass resolutions even if a majority of the directors in office is not present at the meeting.

Subject to Dutch law and any director’s objection, resolutions may be passed in writing by all of the directors in office. Under Dutch law, members of the Wright Board 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 Wright and its business enterprise. If all directors are conflicted and in the absence of a supervisory board, the resolution will be adopted by the general meeting of shareholders, except if the articles of association prescribe otherwise. Our articles of association provide that a director will 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 Wright and its business enterprise. In such event, the other directors will be authorized to adopt the resolution. If all directors have a conflict of interest as mentioned above, the resolution will be adopted by thenon-executive directors.

Board Committees

The Wright Board has four standing board committees: audit committee, compensation committee, nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee, and strategic transactions committee. Each of these committees has the composition described in the table below and the responsibilities described in the sections below. The Wright Board has adopted a written charter for each committee of the Wright Board. These charters are available on the Investors—Governance Documents & Charters section of our corporate website atwww.wright.com. The Wright Board from time to time may establish other committees.

Audit Committee

The audit committee oversees a broad range of issues surrounding our accounting and financial reporting processes and audits of our consolidated financial statements. The primary responsibilities of the audit committee include:

• assisting the Wright Board in monitoring the integrity of our consolidated financial statements, our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements insofar as they relate to our consolidated financial statements and financial reporting obligations and any accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm;

• 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 dealing directly with any such auditing firm; provided, that such appointment will be subject to shareholder ratification or decision in the case of the auditor for our Dutch statutory annual accounts;

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 currently consists of Mr. O’Boyle (Chair), Mr. Wallman and Ms. Weatherman. We believe that the composition of the audit committee complies with the applicable rules of the SEC and Nasdaq. The Wright Board has determined that each of Mr. O’Boyle, Mr. Wallman and Ms. Weatherman is an “independent director” under the Nasdaq rules and that each of Messrs. O’Boyle and Wallman is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in SEC rules, and satisfies the financial sophistication requirements of Nasdaq.

The primary responsibilities of our compensation committee, which are within the scope of the Wright Board’s compensation policy adopted by the general meeting of our shareholders, include:

• approving, or recommending to the Wright Board for approval, the compensation programs, and the payouts for all programs, applying to ournon-executive directors, including reviewing the competitiveness of ournon-executive director compensation programs and reviewing the terms to make sure they are consistent with the Wright Board’s compensation policy adopted by the general meeting of our shareholders.

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, including any other services the counsel, consultant or other advisor is providing to Wright and management.

PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

In addition to retaining KPMG LLP to audit our consolidated financial statements for 2019, the audit committee retained KPMG LLP to provide other auditing and advisory services in 2019. The audit committee understands the need for our independent registered public accounting firm to maintain objectivity and independence in its integrated audits of our consolidated financial statements. The audit committee has reviewed allnon-audit services provided by KPMG LLP in 2019 and has concluded that the provision of such services was compatible with maintaining KPMG LLP’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.

To help ensure the independence of the independent auditor, the audit committeepre-approves all audit and permissiblenon-audit services to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm prior to commencement of services. Our audit committee chairman has the delegated authority topre-approve such services up to a specified aggregate fee amount.

Executive Summary

Fiscal 2019 Business Highlights

Below are operational and financial highlights for 2019.

• Pending Acquisition by Stryker. On November 4, 2019, we entered into a definitive agreement with Stryker and Purchaser under which Purchaser has commenced the Offer. The obligation of Stryker and Purchaser to consummate the Offer is subject to the tender of a minimum number of our outstanding Shares in the Offer, the adoption of certain resolutions relating to the transaction at the Extraordinary General Meeting, receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.

• No. 1 Position in Shoulder Market.By the end of 2019, we achieved our goal of being no. 1 in the global shoulder market.

• Adjusted EBITDA Margin Goal. We achieved our long-standing adjusted EBITDA margin goal by the end of fourth quarter of 2019.

• New Digital Strategy. In May 2019, we announced a new digital organization led by Jason Asper as Senior Vice President, Chief Digital Officer, to focus on executing Wright’s transformative digital surgery strategy to develop new platforms, accelerate surgical solutions and drive software technology innovation across our business.

Fiscal 2019 Compensation Actions and Outcomes

One of our key executive compensation objectives is to link pay to performance by aligning the financial interests of our executives with those of our shareholders and by emphasizing pay for performance in our compensation programs. We strive to accomplish this objective primarily through our annual performance incentive plan (“PIP”), which compensates executives for achieving annual corporate and divisional financial and other goals, and our long-term incentive equity grants, which align the interests of our executives with the long-term interests of our shareholders, promote stock ownership, and create significant incentives for executive retention.

136

Our compensation actions and incentive plan outcomes based on performance for fiscal 2019 are summarized below:

Pay element	2019 actions
Base salary	•  Our CEO received no base salary increase.
	•  Messrs. Berry and Cordell received upward market adjustments of 10.0% and 7.3%, respectively, to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities in connection with their new Executive Vice President positions and bring them closer to target market positioning within our peer group in their new positions. •  Messrs. Lightman and Regan received base salary merit increases of 4.4%.
Short-term annual incentive	•  Target bonus percentages for our NEOs did not change from their 2018 levels, other than in the case of our CEO whose percentage increased by 20 percentage points to bring him closer to our target market positioning within our peer group and Messrs. Berry and Cordell whose percentages increased by 10 percentage points to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities and bring them closer to target market positioning within our peer group in their new positions. •  CEO was increased to 120% and remained the same for our other NEOs, ranging from 50% to 65% of base salary. •  Short-term incentive was based 100% on corporate performance goals for all NEOs except Messrs. Lightman and Regan who also had individual performance goals. •  To encourage the retention of our employees, including our NEOs, we approved 2019 PIP payouts to all participants who remain employed at the time of such payments assuming the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of target or actual performance. Since actual performance was less than target performance, all of our NEOs received payouts equal to target performance. We believe target payouts were important for retention purposes in light of our pending acquisition by Stryker. These payouts were made to our executives in December 2019 to mitigate potential adverse tax consequences to Wright and the NEOs in connection with the Stryker acquisition and in agreement with Stryker.

Measure	Weighting			Target performance		2019 actual performance
Adjusted global net sales		40	%	$	961.6 million	$	918.1 million
Adjusted EBITDA		30	%		204.9 million		189.7 million
Adjusted free cash flow		30	%		3.0 million		1.7 million
SeeCorporate Performance Goals below for a description of these performance goals.

Long-term incentive •  The long-term incentive (“LTI”) grant guideline for our CEO increased from 450% to 500% of base salary and the LTI grant guidelines for our other NEOs increased from 0 to 50 percentage points to align them more closely to target market positioning within our peer group. •  LTI is delivered 1/3 in stock options, 1/3 in time-vested restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards and 1/3 in performance share unit (“PSU”) awards. •  Stock options and RSU awards vest over four years. •  PSU awards vest and are paid out in Shares upon the achievement of a threshold net sales growth goal over a three-year period. •  There were no payouts of prior PSU awards during 2019 because PSU awards have a three-year performance period and were first granted in 2017. •  In recognition of the changed circumstances created by the Stryker acquisition and to encourage retention during the pendency of the acquisition, the compensation committee determined, consistent with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, that all outstanding PSU awards will be deemed to have achieved maximum levels of performance.

Compensation Highlights and Best Practices

Our compensation practices include many best pay practices that support our executive compensation objectives and principles, and benefit our shareholders.

What we do		What we don’t do
	Structure our executive officer compensation so that a significant portion of pay is at risk		No automatic salary increases
	Emphasize long-term performance in our equity-based incentive awards		No repricing of stock options unless approved by shareholders
	Use a mix of performance measures and caps on payouts		No excessive perquisites
	Require minimum vesting periods on equity awards		No new single-trigger change in control arrangements
	Require double-trigger for equity acceleration upon a change in control		No taxgross-ups, other than limited CEO and relocation taxgross-ups
	Maintain a competitive compensation package		No change in control excise taxgross-ups
	Have robust stock ownership guidelines and stock retention requirements for executive officers		No pledging of Wright securities
	Maintain a clawback policy		No short sales or derivative transactions in Wright shares, including hedges
	Hold an annualsay-on-pay vote		No current payment of dividends on unvested awards

Shareholder Outreach Efforts and Changes to Our Executive Compensation

During 2019, we continued to review our executive compensation program to ensure that it not only motivates our executives, but also aligns with shareholder interests and prevailing market practice. As part of this review, we reached out and listened to shareholders. In 2019, we contacted our top 50 institutional shareholders, representing approximately 90% of our outstanding Shares and attended over 300 meetings for investors and interested investors. For the individual investor meetings, our CEO, Chief Financial and Operations Officer and/or Chief Communications Officer attended. The agenda for these meetings requested feedback from investors and shareholders and generally included: (1) a review of our operations and results to date; (2) a summary of our strategic priorities and focus; and (3) a review of our compensation philosophy and its alignment with our strategic direction.

After similar shareholder outreach efforts a couple of years ago, we made several changes to our executive compensation program to respond to shareholder concerns and align with best practices. These changes include the use of performance-based awards, eliminating a single-trigger change in control provision in our equity plan, requiring minimum vesting periods on equity awards under our equity plan, adopting a clawback policy and moving to an annualsay-on-pay vote.

Say-on-Pay Vote

At our 2019 annual general meeting, our shareholders had the opportunity to vote on an advisorysay-on-pay proposal. At the meeting, 70.7% of the votes cast by our shareholders were in favor of oursay-on-pay proposal. The compensation committee considered whether to change certain aspects of our executive compensation program in response to this vote, but ultimately determined in light of our pending acquisition by Stryker not to make any significant changes at this time, but to revisit the program if for some reason the Stryker acquisition is not completed.

138

Compensation Objectives and Philosophies

Our executive compensation policies, plans and programs seek to enhance our financial performance, and thus shareholder value, by aligning the financial interests of our executives with those of our shareholders and by emphasizing pay for performance. Specifically, our executive compensation programs are designed to:

• Reinforce our corporate mission, vision and values;

• Attract and retain executives important to the success of Wright;

• Align the interests of our executives with the interests of our shareholders; and

• Reward executives for the achievement of Wright’s performance objectives, the creation of shareholder value in the short- and long-term, and their contributions to the success of Wright.

To achieve these objectives, although the compensation committee has not adopted any formal or informal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation, the committee makes executive compensation decisions based on the following philosophies:

• Base salary and total compensation levels are generally targeted to be within a reasonable range of the 67^th percentile of a group ofsimilarly-sized peer companies. However, the specific competitiveness of any individual executive’s salary and compensation will be determined considering factors like the executive’s experience, skills and capabilities, contributions as a member of the executive management team, contributions to our overall performance, and the sufficiency of total compensation potential to ensure the retention of an executive when considering the compensation potential that may be available elsewhere.

• At leasttwo-thirds of the CEO’s compensation opportunity and half of other executives’ compensation opportunities should be in the form of variable compensation that is tied to financial results and/or creation of shareholder value.

• The portion of total compensation that is performance-based orat-risk should increase with an executive’s overall responsibilities, job level, and compensation. However, compensation programs should not encourage excessive risk-taking behavior among executives and should support our commitment to corporate compliance.

• 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 opportunity andone-third of other executives’ compensation opportunities should be in the form of stock-based incentive awards.

Use of Peer Group and Other Market Data and Market Positioning

Peer Group.To help determine appropriate levels of compensation for certain elements of our executive compensation program, the compensation committee reviews annually the compensation levels of our NEOs and other executives against the compensation levels of comparable positions with companies similar to us in terms of industry, revenues, products and operations. The elements of our 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 our 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 our executive talent than broader survey data and that compensation paid by peer companies that are in the same industry, with similar products and operations, and with revenues in a range similar to ours, generally provides more relevant comparisons.

139

In July 2018, Mercer worked with the compensation committee to identify a peer group of 13 companies in the health care equipment and supplies business with products and operations similar to ours and that had annual revenues generally within a range of our annual revenues. The compensation committeere-confirmed the peer group in July 2019, with the exception of replacing NxStage Medical, Inc., which was acquired in February 2019, with DexCom, Inc. This peer group, which included the following companies, was used in determining our 2019 executive compensation program.

The Cooper Companies, Inc.	Masimo Corporation	NuVasive, Inc.
Globus Medical, Inc.	Merit Medical Systems, Inc.	ResMed Inc.
Integer Holdings Corporation	Natus Medical Incorporated	Insulet Corporation
Haemonetics Corporation	NxStage Medical, Inc.	Abiomed, Inc.
Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation

The table below sets forth certain revenue and other financial information Mercer used to compile the peer group and market capitalization information as of May 16, 2018 for the peer group that the compensation committee used in connection with its recommendations and decisions for 2019 executive compensation.

	Trailing 12-month revenue (in millions)		One-year revenue growth			Three-year revenue growth			Market capitalization (in millions)
25th percentile	$	549		7	%		10	%	$	2,323
50th percentile		814		13	%		12	%		4,874
75th percentile		1,393		23	%		20	%		8,082
Wright’s percentile rank		42%		29	%		91	%		23%

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 our business and objectives that may be unique to us. 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 othercase-by-case factors that may be relevant in hiring or retaining a particular executive.

Market Positioning. In general, we target base salary and total compensation levels to be within a reasonable range of the 67^th percentile of our peer group. However, the specific competitiveness of any individual executive’s pay will be determined considering factors like the executive’s experience, skills and capabilities, contributions as a member of the executive management team, and contributions to our 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. We believe this market positioning is important to attract and retain the best executive talent to achieve our business strategies and objectives.

Executive Compensation Pay Mix

The overall mix of annual base salaries, target annual cash incentive awards and the grant date fair value of long-term incentive awards as a percentage of target total direct compensation for our CEO and other NEOs as a group for 2019 is provided below. The annual base salary is the 2019 base salary. The value of the long-term incentives represented is based on the grant date fair value of stock options, RSU awards and PSU awards granted during 2019. Actual long-term incentive value will be based on long-term stock price performance and whether the PSU performance goals are achieved. All other compensation is excluded from the graphics below.

Executive Compensation Components

During 2019, our executive compensation program consisted of the following key elements: base salary, short-term cash incentive, long-term incentives in the form of stock option, RSU and PSU awards, limited perquisites and personal benefits, retirement benefits, and severance and change in control arrangements. The following table provides some of the key characteristics of, and purpose for, each element.

Element	Key characteristics	Purpose	Key 2019 changes
Base salary (Fixed, cash)	A fixed amount, paid in regular cash payments throughout the year and reviewed annually and, if appropriate, adjusted, effective typically April 1 of each year.	Provides a source of fixed income that is market competitive and reflects the scope and responsibility of the position held.	No base salary increase for the CEO. Base salary upward market adjustments of 10.0% and 7.3% to Messrs. Berry and Cordell, respectively, to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities and bring them closer to target market positioning within our peer group in their new positions. Base salary merit increases for Messrs. Lightman and Regan of 4.4%.

141

Element	Key characteristics	Purpose	Key 2019 changes
Short-term incentive (“STI”) (Variable, cash)	A variable, short-term element of compensation that is payable in cash based on achievement of keypre-established annual corporate, and in some cases, divisional financial goals and/or individual goals.	Motivates and rewards our executives for meeting annual financial and other goals intended to achieve our annual operating plan objectives.	Target bonus percentages for our NEOs did not change from their 2018 levels, other than in the case of our CEO whose percentage increased by 20 percentage points to bring him closer to our target market positioning within our peer group and Messrs. Berry and Cordell, whose percentages increased by 10 percentage points to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities and bring them closer to target market positioning within our peer group in their new positions.
Long-term incentives (“LTI”) (Variable, stock option, restricted stock unit and performance share unit awards)	A variable, long-term element of compensation that is providedone-third in stock options,one-third in time-vested RSUs andone-third in PSU awards. Stock options and RSUs vest over four years. PSU awards vest and are paid out in our ordinary shares upon the achievement of a threshold three-year net sales growth goal.	Aligns the interests of our executives with those of our shareholders; encourages focus on long-term company financial performance measures that are deemed strategically and operationally important to Wright; promotes retention of our executives; and encourages significant ownership of our ordinary shares.	No significant changes made to long-term equity incentives, other than a 50 percentage point increase in the LTI grant guideline for our CEO and an increase between 0 and 50 percentage points for each of our other NEOs to align them more closely to target market positioning within our peer group.
Perquisites and personal benefits	Includes personal insurance premiums, up to $5,000 reimbursement for financial and tax planning and tax preparation for all NEOs and supplemental long-term disability insurance. Additional benefits for our CEO under his employment agreement. Customary relocation benefits and assignment and expat benefits that are consistent with local policies and practices.	Assists in attracting new and retaining existing talent, allowing our executives to more efficiently use their time and supports them in effectively contributing to Wright’s success. CEO benefits were critical to our ability to hire him.	No significant changes were made to perquisites and personal benefits, except the adoption of a supplemental long-term disability insurance policy effective January 1, 2019.

Attracts key executive talent and encourages continuity, stability and retention when considering the potential disruptive impact of an actual or potential corporate transaction.	No significant changes made to change in control and severance benefits.

Base Salary

Setting Initial Salaries for New Executives. We initially fix base salaries for executives at a level we believe enables us to hire and retain them in a competitive environment, and to reward individual performance and contributions to our overall business objectives. During 2019, we did not hire any new executives.

Annual Salary Increases. We review the base salaries of our NEOs each year following the completion of our prior year individual performance reviews. If appropriate, we increase base salaries to recognize annual increases in the cost of living and superior individual performance and to ensure that our base salaries remain market competitive. In addition, as required under his employment agreement, we review our CEO’s base salary at least annually and consider whether an increase is appropriate. We refer to annual base salary increases as a result of cost of living adjustments and individual performance as “merit increases.” In addition, we 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 our target market positioning of companies in our peer group. We refer to these base salary increases as “market adjustments.”

The 2019 base salary merit increases for our NEOs ranged from 0.0% to 4.4% over their respective 2018 base salaries. Our CEO received no base salary increase, but received an increase in his STI and LTI grant guideline as described below. No upward market adjustments were made during 2019, except in the case of Messrs. Berry and Cordell to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities and bring them closer to target market positioning within our peer group in their new positions. We believe the 2019 base salaries of all of our NEOs were within a reasonable range of our targeted positioning among our peer group at that time.

143

2019 Base Salaries. The table below sets forth the 2018 base salaries of our NEOs, their 2019 base salaries (effective March 23, 2019), and the percentage increase compared to their 2018 base salaries:

Named executive officer	2018 base salary ($)		2019 base salary ($)		2019 base salary % increase compared to 2018 base salary
Robert J. Palmisano	$	958,514	$	958,514		0.0	%
Lance A. Berry		468,000		515,000		10.0	%
Kevin D. Cordell		480,069		515,000		7.3	%
James A. Lightman		450,000		470,000		4.4	%
Barry J. Regan		450,000		470,000		4.4	%

Short-Term Cash Incentive Compensation

Our short-term cash incentive compensation is paid as an annual cash bonus under our PIP and is intended to compensate executives for achieving annual corporate financial performance goals and, in some cases, divisional financial and individual performance goals. The PIP provides broad discretion to the compensation committee in interpreting and administering the plan.

In recognition of the changed circumstances created by the Stryker acquisition and to encourage the retention of our employees, including our NEOs, we approved 2019 PIP payouts to all participants who remain employed at the time of such payments assuming the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of target or actual performance. Since actual performance was less than target performance, all of our NEOs received payouts equal to target performance. These payouts were made to our executives in December 2019 to mitigate potential adverse tax consequences to Wright and the NEOs in connection with the Stryker acquisition and in agreement with Stryker.

Target Bonus Percentages. Target short-term cash incentive bonuses for 2019 for each executive were based on a percentage of base salary and were as follows for each NEO:

Named executive officer	Percentage of base salary
Robert J. Palmisano		120	%
Lance A. Berry		75	%
Kevin D. Cordell		70	%
James A. Lightman		50	%
Barry J. Regan		50	%

Our CEO’s target bonus percentage increased by 20 percentage points to bring him closer to our target market positioning within our peer group and Messrs. Berry and Cordell target bonus percentages increased 10 percentage points to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities and bring them closer to target market positioning within our peer group in their new positions. The 2019 target bonus percentages for Messrs. Lightman and Regan did not change from their 2018 levels. Based on an executive compensation analysis by our compensation consultant, we believe the 2019 target bonus percentages for our NEOs were generally aligned with our targeted positioning within our peer group at that time.

144

Performance Goal Mix. Bonuses awarded to our NEOs for 2019 were based on achievement of corporate performance goals for all executives, and also included individual performance goals for Messrs. Lightman and Regan.

Named executive officer	Percentage based upon Corporate performance goals			Percentage based upon Individual performance goals
Robert J. Palmisano		100	%		0	%
Lance A. Berry		100	%		0	%
Kevin D. Cordell		100	%		0	%
James A. Lightman		80	%		20	%
Barry J. Regan		80	%		20	%

Corporate Performance Goals. For 2019, we had three corporate performance measures as set forth in the table below. These three measures were the same corporate performance measures from 2018, and were selected again because they were determined to continue to be the three most important indicators of our financial performance for 2019 as evaluated by management and analysts.

2019 corporate performance metric	Weighting
Adjusted global net sales(1)		40	%
Adjusted EBITDA(2)		30	%
Adjusted free cash flow(3)		30	%

(1) This performance measure was calculated using anon-GAAP financial measure, which we believe provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our core operational performance. The adjusted net sales goal and actual results were calculated based on a foreign currency exchange planning rate to adjust for any impact of foreign currency on underlying performance.

(2) This performance measure was calculated using anon-GAAP financial measure, which we believe provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our core operational performance. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations means net loss from continuing operations plus charges for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses,non-cash share-based compensation expense andnon-operating income and expense. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations excluded transaction and transition costs associated with acquisitions and divestitures; tax benefit related to realizability of net operating losses; and bonus compensation.

(3) This performance measure was calculated using anon-GAAP financial measure, which we believe provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our core operational performance. Adjusted free cash flow means net cash flow provided by operating activities (excluding net cash flow from certain discontinued operations, certain transaction and transition cost associated with acquisitions and foreign currency gains and losses) less capital expenditures.

The percentage of the target bonus earned by bonus objective was based on the following performance levels and an overall weighted average corporate payout:

Performance level	Percent of target bonus earned
Threshold	0% to 99.9%
Target	100%
Above target	100.1% to 150%
High	150.1% to 200%

145

In setting the threshold, target, above target, and maximum performance achievement levels, we considered past performance, market conditions, and the financial, strategic, and operational plans presented by management. When setting the target performance levels, we sought to ensure thatat- or above-market performance was the goal. For above-target performance levels, the achievement levels required “stretch” performance by the management team to achieve this level of performance. At the threshold level, targets would be set on a steeper slope than at the above target/maximum categories, so that missed target performance would result in more rapidly declining bonus opportunity.

The performance level of each corporate performance measure is set forth in the table below.

Performance level	Adjusted global net sales		Adjusted EBITDA		Adjusted free cash flow
Threshold	$	913.5 million	$	179.9 million	$	(12.0) million
Target	$	961.6 million	$	204.9 million	$	3.0 million
Above target	$	980.8 million	$	219.9 million	$	17.0 million
High	$	1,009.7 million	$	244.8 million	$	42.0 million

The table below sets forth our actual performance for each corporate performance measure and the overall weighted corporate performance achievement rating, which was between threshold and target. Absent the decision to make payouts at target in connection with the pending Stryker acquisition and consistent with the purchase agreement with Stryker, the payout for the corporate performance measures would have been at 71.4% for our corporate performance measures.

2019 corporate performance measures and weighting	Actual	Payout
Adjusted global net sales (40%)	$918.1 million	Between threshold and target
Adjusted EBITDA (30%)	$189.7 million	Between threshold and target
Adjusted free cash flow (30%)	$1.7 million	Between threshold and target
Overall weighted achievement rating	71.4%	Between threshold and target

Individual Performance Goals. To foster cooperation and communication among executives, the compensation committee places primary emphasis on overall corporate performance goals rather than on individual performance goals. For NEOs, at least 80% of their 2019 annual PIP bonuses were to be determined based on the achievement of corporate performance goals and only 20% or less were based on achievement of individual performance goals. The individual performance goals used to determine annual PIP bonuses were management by objectives (“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. The only NEOs with MBOs for 2019 were Messrs. Lightman and Regan. As previously discussed, to encourage the retention of our employees, including our NEOs, all MBOs were paid out assuming target level performance.

2019 Actual PIP Bonuses. The table below sets forth the 2019 PIP bonuses for all NEOs:

Named executive officer	2019 PIP bonus
Robert J. Palmisano	$	1,150,217
Lance A. Berry		386,250
Kevin D. Cordell		360,500
James A. Lightman		235,000
Barry J. Regan		235,000

2020 Changes. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, prior to the acceptance time by Stryker of Shares tendered in the tender offer, if the acceptance time occurs in 2020, we may pay each employee, including our NEOs, if they are employed at the time of such payments, a 2020 cash bonus assuming the achievement of the applicable performance metrics at target. The amount would be prorated for the period of the 2020 calendar

146

year that occurs prior to the acceptance time and if the acceptance time occurs in 2021, we may pay each such employee, including our NEOs, a cash bonus assuming (a) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of target or actual performance in 2020 and (b) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at target in 2021. The amount would be prorated for the period of the 2021 calendar year that occurs prior to the acceptance time. We believe this provision encourages retention of our employees in light of the Stryker acquisition.

Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Compensation.Long-term equity-based incentives typically comprise a significant portion of each NEO’s compensation package, consistent with our executive compensation philosophy. The Wright Board, on recommendation of the compensation committee, generally grants two types of long-term incentives in the form of equity awards: annual performance recognition grants and talent acquisition grants. On limited occasions, we 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. No talent acquisition, special recognition or discretionary grants were made to our NEOs in 2019. All equity awards are granted under the shareholder-approved Wright Medical Group N.V. 2017 Equity and Incentive Plan, which was amended and restated in June 2019.

Annual Performance Recognition Grants. Annual performance recognition grants are discretionary annual grants that are made duringmid-year to give the compensation committee another formal opportunity during the year to review executive compensation and recognize executive and other key employee performance. The recipients and size of the annual performance recognition grants are determined based on our long-term incentive grant guidelines, which we review annually to ensure continued alignment with our target positioning. Consistent with the principle that the interests of our executives should be aligned with those of our 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 table below describes our LTI grant guidelines for annual performance recognition grants that applied to our NEOs for 2019.

Named executive officer	Incentive grant guideline expressed as % of base salary			Dollar value of incentive grant guideline as  of July 25, 2019 grant date ($)
Robert J. Palmisano		500	%	$	4,792,570
Lance A. Berry		275	%		1,416,250
Kevin D. Cordell		225	%		1,158,750
James A. Lightman		175	%		822,500
Barry J. Regan		125	%		587,500

The LTI grant guideline for our CEO increased 50 percentage points (from 450% to 500% of base salary) to bring his LTI closer to our target positioning in our peer group and provide him greater performance-based compensation in lieu of an annual base salary increase. The LTI grant guidelines for each of Messrs. Berry and Cordell also increased 50 percentage points (225% to 275% and 175% to 225% of base salary, respectively) to compensate them for assuming increased roles and responsibilities and bring them closer to target positioning within our peer group in their new positions. Finally, the LTI grant guideline for Mr. Lightman increased 25 percentage points (from 150% to 175% of base salary) to bring him closer to target positioning in our peer group. Based on an executive compensation analysis by our compensation consultant, we believe the 2019 LTI grant guidelines for our NEOs were generally aligned with our targeted positioning within our peer group at that time.

Talent Acquisition Grants. Talent acquisition grants are new hire grants that are considered and approved as part of an executive’s compensation package at the time of hire (with the grant date and exercise price delayed until the hire date). As with our annual performance recognition grants, the size of our talent acquisition grants is determined by dollar amount (as opposed to number of underlying shares), and under our LTI grant guidelines, is

147

generally 2 to 2.5 times the LTI grant guidelines for annual performance recognition grants, as recommended by our compensation consultant. We recognize 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 or other equity at a previous employer that would typically be forfeited upon acceptance of employment with us. In some cases, we may need to further increase a talent acquisition grant to attract an executive. No NEOs received a talent acquisition grant during 2019.

Equity Award Mix. Once an executive’s target total LTI value is determined,one-third of the value is provided in stock options,one-third is provided in RSU awards andone-third is provided in PSU awards, except in the case of new hires, where the value is providedone-half in stock options andone-half in RSU awards. The number of stock options, RSU awards and target PSU awards is based on the Black-Scholes value of our ordinary shares as determined on the third business day prior to the corporate approval of the award and using an average closing price of our ordinary shares over the most recent10-trading days.

The following table describes each of these three types of awards and why we provide them to our executives:

Stock options	RSU awards	PSU awards
Provides executives with the opportunity once vested to purchase our ordinary shares at a price fixed on the grant date regardless of future market price.	Provides executives a commitment by us to issue ordinary shares at the time the RSU award vests.	Gives executives a commitment from us to issue a certain number of ordinary shares dependent upon achievement of one or more performance measures.
Exercise price is equal to fair market value of an ordinary share on the grant date.	Vesting is time-based, in four annual installments.	At time of grant, the compensation committee establishes performance measures, weightings, goals, performance adjustment events, if any, and the performance period, as well as thresholds, targets, and maximums.
Vesting is time-based, with 25% of the shares underlying the stock option vesting on theone-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying shares vesting over a three-year period thereafter in 36 nearly equal monthly installments.	Annual awards vest on each August 15th.	Performance periods typically begin on the first day of our third fiscal quarter and end on the last day of our second fiscal quarter of the third year thereafter.

148

Stock options	RSU awards	PSU awards
	New hire awards vest beginning on either August 15, November 15, March 1 or May 15, depending on the grant date.	At the end of the performance period, the compensation committee certifies performance against the performance goals, including the applicability of any performance adjustment events, and a corresponding payout, which is expressed as a percent of target.
	In all cases, the first vesting date is at least one year after the grant date.	Actual payouts for PSU awards can range from 0% (if the threshold levels of performance are not met) to 200% of the target award (if maximum levels of performance are met).
	Provides the opportunity for capital accumulation and more predictable LTI value than stock options.
Benefits of all equity award types
Incentivizes employees to maximize company performance, as the value of awards is directly tied to an appreciation in the value of our ordinary shares.
Provides an effective retention mechanism because of vesting provisions.
Strengthens the relationship between the long-term value of our ordinary shares and the potential financial gain for executives.
Links a portion of an executive’s compensation to the interests of our shareholders by providing an incentive to achieve corporate goals and increase the market price of our ordinary shares over the vesting period.

2019 Equity Awards. The table below sets forth the number of stock options, RSU awards and target PSU awards granted to each of our NEOs in 2019.

Named executive officer	Stock options (#)		RSU awards (#)		PSU awards (assuming target performance) (#)
Robert J. Palmisano		181,429		58,991		58,991
Lance A. Berry		53,614		17,432		17,432
Kevin D. Cordell		43,866		14,263		14,263
James A. Lightman		31,137		10,124		10,124
Barry J. Regan		22,241		7,231		7,231

No payouts for PSU awards were made during 2019 because 2017 was the first year we granted PSU awards and the performance period of those awards is three years. The performance measure for the PSU awards granted in 2019, 2018 and 2017 is net sales growth over a three-year period. The specific performance goals are maintained by us as proprietary and confidential. We believe that disclosure of this specific performance goal would represent competitive harm to us. Based on historical performance, we believe the attainment of the target performance level, while uncertain, could be reasonably anticipated. The threshold goal represents the minimum level of performance necessary for there to be a payout and we believe is likely to be achieved. The maximum goal represents the performance at which a payout is 200% of the target award and represents the level of

149

performance of which we believe a payout of 200% would be appropriate. We believe that the maximum goal established for the performance measure is much more aggressive than the target goal. We consider the following factors when establishing the performance goals: our prior year andyear-to-date financial business results, long-term strategic plan outlook, our competitive situation, anticipated state of our business, and any anticipated business opportunities.

Additional information concerning the long-term incentive compensation information for our NEOs for 2019 is included in the “Summary Compensation Table—2019” and “Grants of Plan-Based Awards—2019” table under the heading “Executive Compensation” beginning on page 157.

2020 Changes. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we are limited in our ability to issue future equity grants prior to the completion of the acquisition. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, in the event the closing of the acquisition of Wright by Stryker has not occurred prior to July 1, 2020, we may issue annual equity awards in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices to eligible employees, with any such awards that are so granted having (except as set forth below) the same terms and being granted at approximately the same time as equity awards granted by Wright in July 2019. In the event such awards are made, no award to an individual will have a grant date value (based on a percentage of base salary) greater than the grant made to such individual by Wright in July 2019 and no awards may be PSUs or otherwise subject to performance-based vesting conditions. A portion of these awards will vest at the closing of the acquisition of Wright by Stryker on a pro rata basis based on the number of days of the vesting period that occur between the grant date and the closing of the Stryker acquisition and the holder thereof will be entitled to payment for such vested awards in a manner consistent with other awards contemplated to be paid out at closing, provided that any portion of an award that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled without consideration. All other equity awards outstanding at the time of the closing of the acquisition will be immediately vested in full (and assuming maximum performance in the case of the PSUs) and cashed out in connection with the transaction based on the $30.75 per Share acquisition price. Accordingly, as a result of the limitations in the Purchase Agreement, we anticipate that if annual equity grants are made in 2020 that they will be time-based RSU awards. In addition, in recognition of the changed circumstances created by the Stryker acquisition and to encourage retention during the pendency of the acquisition, the compensation committee determined, consistent with the terms of the purchase agreement with Stryker, that all outstanding PSU awards will be deemed to have achieved maximum levels of performance.

All Other Compensation

Retirement benefits

Our executives have the opportunity to participate in retirement plans maintained by our operating subsidiaries, including a 401(k) plan, on the same basis as our other employees. We believe these plans provide an opportunity for our executives to plan for and meet their retirement savings needs. We do not provide pension arrangements or post-retirement health coverage for our employees, including NEOs, or nonqualified defined contribution or other deferred compensation plans.

Perquisites and other benefits

We provide our executives with modest perquisites to attract and retain them. The perquisites provided to our NEOs during 2019 included $1,000 for certain personal insurance premiums and up to $5,000 reimbursement for financial and tax planning and tax preparation, and supplemental long-term disability insurance. We also provide annual sales award trips for certain executives and their spouses. We encourage these executives to attend sales award trips in order to help build morale and for team building purposes; but we recognize that suchout-of-town trips place increased demands on the executives’ families and thus pay for travel and other expenses incurred by spouses of executives who choose to attend such trips.

150

In addition, we are required to provide our CEO additional perquisites under the terms of his employment agreement, which we agreed on at the time of his initial hiring by legacy Wright to attract him to our company. These additional perquisites include additional reimbursement for financial and tax planning and tax preparation, a monthly allowance of $7,500 for housing and automobile expenses, reimbursement for reasonable travel expenses between Memphis, Tennessee and his residences, and an annual physical examination. To the extent that the reimbursements for his housing and automobile expenses and travel expenses are not deductible by Mr. Palmisano for income tax purposes, such amounts are“grossed-up” for income tax purposes so that the reimbursed items will be received net of any deduction for income and payroll taxes. We agreed to thisgross-up provision at the time of his initial hiring by legacy Wright to attract him to our company and ease the financial burden on him to travel to and from our U.S. corporate headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee.

We believe perquisites and certain other benefits are an important part of our overall compensation package and help us accomplish our goal of attracting, retaining, and rewarding top executive talent. The value of all of the perquisites and other compensation provided to our NEOs for 2019 can be found under “Executive Compensation—All Other Compensation for 2019-Supplemental” on page 160.

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, we have established change in control arrangements, including provisions in our equity-based compensation plans, separation pay agreements with our executives, and our employment agreement with our CEO, which are described in more detail below and under “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control”beginning on page 167. These arrangements are designed to incentivize our executives to remain with our company in the event of a change in control or potential change in control. The closing of the Stryker acquisition will be considered a change in control under these arrangements.

We believe our change in control arrangements are an important part of our 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 our company, might consider seeking employment alternatives to be less risky than remaining with our company through the transaction. We believe that relative to our company’s overall value, our potential change in control benefits are relatively small and are aligned with current peer company practices.

Our 2017 equity plan contains a “double trigger” change in control provision under which equity awards will not vest in connection with a change in control unless there is a termination event or the equity awards are not continued, assumed or substituted with like awards by the successor. Under the terms of our prior equity plan and the individual award documents provided to recipients of awards under that plan, all stock options and RSU awards become immediately vested (and, in the case of options, exercisable) upon the completion of a change in control of our company. Thus, the immediate vesting of stock options and RSU awards is triggered by the change in control, itself, and thus is known as a “single trigger” change in control arrangement. The intent of our prior “single trigger” equity acceleration change in control arrangements was to provide retention incentives during what can often be an uncertain time for employees. They also provided executives with additional monetary motivation to focus on and complete a transaction that the Wright Board believes is in the best interests of our company and shareholders rather than to seek new employment opportunities. The immediate acceleration of equity-based awards also aligned the interests of our executives and other employees with those of our shareholders by allowing our executives to participate fully in the benefits of a change in control as to all of their

151

equity. If an executive were to leave before the completion of the change in control, unvested awards held by the executive would terminate. However, we recognized that our single trigger change in control arrangements did not align with current market practice and the desires of many of our shareholders so we changed this practice with the adoption of our 2017 equity plan.

In addition to the change in control provisions in our 2017 equity plan, we have entered into an employment agreement with our CEO and separation pay agreements with our other NEOs and other officers which provide certain payments and benefits in the event of a termination of employment in connection with a change in control. These “double trigger” change in control protections are intended to induce executives to accept or continue employment with our company, 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 such terms are defined in the agreements) within 12 months (24 months for our CEO) following a change in control, the executive will be entitled to receive a severance payment and certain benefits. These arrangements and a quantification of the payment and benefits provided under these arrangements are described in more detail under “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control” beginning on page 167.

Other Severance Arrangements. Each of our NEOs is entitled to receive severance benefits upon certain other qualifying terminations of employment, other than a change in control, pursuant to the provisions of an employment agreement for our CEO and separation pay agreements for our other NEOs. These severance arrangements are intended to induce the executives to accept or continue employment with our company and are primarily intended to retain our executives and provide consideration to those executives for certain restrictive covenants that apply following a termination of employment. Additionally, we entered into these agreements because they provide us 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 us or otherwise interfere with our business relationships following their termination of employment.

For more information on our severance arrangements with our NEOs, see the discussions below under “Executive Compensation-Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control” beginning on page 167.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We have established stock ownership guidelines that are intended to further align the interests of our executives with those of our shareholders. Stock ownership targets for each of our executive officers have been set at the number of our ordinary shares with a value equal to a multiple of the executive’s annual base salary. 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 the increase to reach his or her stock ownership targets. Until his or her stock ownership target is achieved, each executive 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 RSU awards. If there is a significant decline in the price of our 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.

152

Our compensation committee reports on compliance with the guidelines at least annually to the Wright Board. Each of our NEOs is in compliance with our stock ownership guidelines, taking into account the five-year compliance deadline.

Named executive officer	Stock ownership target as a multiple of base salary	In compliance (yes/no)
Robert J. Palmisano	4x	Yes
Lance A. Berry	2x	Yes
Kevin D. Cordell	2x	Yes
James A. Lightman	2x	Yes
Barry J. Regan	2x	Yes

Anti-Hedging and Pledging

Our code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality prohibits our employees, including our NEOs, from engaging in hedging transactions, such as short sales, transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivatives, and pledging our ordinary shares. Our anti-hedging and pledging policy is described under “Executive Compensation—Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy” beginning on page 176.

Clawback Policy

In 2017, we adopted a clawback policy that applies to all officers, including our NEOs, that authorizes recovery of gains from incentive compensation, including equity awards, in the event of certain financial restatements. In addition, under our equity plans, 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 equity 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 us 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 executive’s employment or other service. In addition to the clawback policy and equity plan provisions, our CEO is subject to a broader clawback provision in his employment agreement which applies in the event of certain financial restatements.

Risk Assessment

As a result of our annual assessment on risk in our compensation programs, we concluded that our compensation policies, practices, and programs and related compensation governance structure, work together in a manner to encourage our executives (and other employees) to pursue growth strategies that emphasize shareholder value creation, but not to take unnecessary or excessive risks that could threaten the value of our company. For more information on this assessment, see the discussions below under “Executive Compensation—Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies, Practices and Programs” beginning on page 176.

153

How We Make Compensation Decisions

Roles and Responsibilities. There are several elements to our executive compensation decision-making, which we believe allow us to most effectively implement our compensation philosophy and objectives. The compensation committee, the board of directors, our independent external compensation consultant and management all have a role in decision-making for executive compensation. The following table summarizes their roles and responsibilities:

Responsible party	Roles and responsibilities
Compensation committee (Comprised solely of independent directors and reports to the board of directors)	•  Oversees all aspects of our executive compensation program.
	•  Annually reviews and approves our corporate goals and objectives relevant to CEO compensation.
	•  Evaluates CEO’s performance in light of such goals and objectives, and determines and recommends his compensation based on this evaluation.
	•  Determines and approves all executive officer compensation, including salary, bonus and equity andnon-equity incentive compensation.
	•  Administers our equity compensation plans and reviews and recommends all equity awards.
	•  Reviews our incentive compensation arrangements to confirm that incentive pay does not encourage unnecessary risk-taking.
	•  Evaluates market competitiveness of each executive’s compensation.
	•  Evaluates proposed changes to our executive compensation program.
	•  Assists the Board in developing and evaluating potential candidates for executive positions and overseeing the development of succession plans.
	•  Has sole authority to hire consultants, approve their fees and determine the nature and scope of their work.
Board of directors	•  Approves, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, all CEO compensation consistent with our shareholder-approved board of directors compensation policy.
	•  Approves, upon recommendation of the compensation committee, all equity grants.
Independent external compensation consultant (Mercer (US) Inc.) (Independent and reports to the compensation committee)	•  Advises on all significant aspects of executive compensation, as well asnon-executive director compensation.
	•  Provides advice and guidance on the appropriateness and competitiveness of our executive compensation program relative to our performance and market practice.
	•  Reviews total compensation strategy and pay levels for executives.
	•  Examines our executive compensation program to ensure that each element supports our business strategy.
	•  Assists in selection of peer companies and gathering competitive market data.
	•  Provides advice with respect to our equity-based compensation plans.
	•  Attends on a regular basis compensation committee meetings.
President and Chief Executive Officer	•  Reviews performance of other executive officers and makes recommendations with respect to their compensation.
	•  Confers with the compensation committee and compensation consultant concerning design and development of compensation and benefit plans.
	•  Provides no input or recommendations with respect to his own compensation.

154

Responsible party	Roles and responsibilities
Other members of senior management team (Senior Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, and Executive Vice President, Chief Financial and Operations Officer)	•  Gathers compensation data regarding executives and coordinates the exchange of information among management, the compensation committee and compensation consultant.
	•  Assists the compensation committee by ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and educating the committee on executive compensation trends and best practices from a corporate governance perspective.
	•  Provides no input or recommendations with respect to their own compensation.

Factors Considered. In setting or recommending executive compensation for our NEOs, the compensation committee considers the following primary factors:

• each executive’s position within the company and the level of responsibility;

• 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 us;

• company performance, as compared to specificpre-established objectives;

• individual performance, generally and as compared to specificpre-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 us and the harm to our business initiatives if the executive left;

• the retention value of executive equity holdings, including outstanding stock options, RSU awards and PSU awards;

• the dilutive effect on the interests of our shareholders of long-term equity-based incentive awards; and

• anticipated share-based compensation expense as determined under applicable accounting rules.

In light of the pending Stryker acquisition, the compensation committee also considers any covenants in the Purchase Agreement that could limit our ability to set executive compensation.

The compensation committee also considers the recommendations of our CEO with respect to executive compensation to be paid to other executives. 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 MBOs established in connection with our PIP, described above. In making its final decision regarding the form and amount of compensation to be paid to our NEOs (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 our compensation consultant, and the recommendations of ournon-executive directors. 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.

155

Tax Deductibility of Compensation

Prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law on December 22, 2017 (the “Tax Act”), in designing our executive compensation program, we considered the deductibility of executive compensation under Code Section 162(m). The Tax Act repealed the exemption from Code Section 162(m)’s $1 million deduction limit for “performance-based” compensation for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, other than with respect to certain “grandfathered” arrangements entered into prior to November 2, 2017. Our compensation plans were designed with the intention of satisfying the requirements for “performance-based” compensation as defined in Code Section 162(m) prior to the effective date of the Tax Act so that such awards would be exempt from the Code Section 162(m) deduction limitation. While we designed these plans to operate in this manner, the exemption is no longer available for performance-based awards paid in tax years beginning after 2017 (other than with respect to certain “grandfathered” arrangements as noted above). Further, as it relates to any “grandfathered” arrangements, the compensation committee may administer the plans in a manner that does not satisfy such requirements in order to achieve a result that the compensation committee determines to be appropriate, including by revising performance goals and/or adjustment events as needed to ensure our pay practices continue to align with performance.

Despite the changes to Section 162(m) as a result of the Tax Act, consistent with our executive compensation philosophy of linking pay to performance and aligning executive interests with those of our shareholders, we currently expect that we will continue to structure our executive compensation program so that a significant portion of total executive compensation is linked to the performance of our company.

(1) Five percent of Mr. Palmisano’s annual base salary was allocated to his service as an executive director and member of the Wright Board.

(2) We generally do not pay any discretionary bonuses or bonuses that are subjectively determined and did not pay any such bonuses to any NEOs in 2019. Annual cash incentive bonus payouts are typically based on performance againstpre-established performance goals under our performance incentive plan are reported in the“Non-equity incentive plan compensation” column.

157

(3) Amounts reported represent the aggregate grant date fair value for RSU and PSU awards, in each case computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718. The grant date fair value is determined based on the per share closing sale price of our Shares on the grant date. Amounts reported for each NEO and each award for 2019 are set forth in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards—2019” table in the “Grant Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards” column. Set forth below is the 2019 grant date fair value of PSU awards assuming maximum levels of performance. The maximum value is calculated using the number of Shares reflected in the “Maximum” column of the “Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards” section of the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards—2019” table and the closing price of our Shares on July 26, 2019, the grant date, of $27.84, as reported by Nasdaq.

Mr. Berry		970,614
Mr. Cordell		794,164
Mr. Lightman		563,704
Mr. Regan		402,622

(4) Amounts reported represent the aggregate grant date fair value for option awards granted to each NEO computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value is determined based on our Black-Scholes option pricing model. The table below sets forth the specific assumptions used in the valuation of each such option award:

Grant date	Grant date fair value per share ($)		Risk free interest rate			Expected life		Expected volatility			Expected dividend yield

07/25/2017		9.80		1.875	%		6.10 years		32.50	%		—

(5) Amounts reported represent payouts under our performance incentive plan and for each year other than 2019 reflect the amounts earned for that year but paid during the following year.

(6) Amounts reported in this column for 2019 are described under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—All Other Compensation for 2019—Supplemental.”

(7) Mr. Regan was appointed our Senior Vice President, Operations effective July 9, 2018 and was not an NEO in 2017 or 2018; therefore, his information is only provided for 2019.

Agreements with Robert J. Palmisano. Effective October 1, 2015, we entered into a service agreement and one of our subsidiaries entered into an employment agreement with Robert J. Palmisano, our President and CEO.

The service agreement deals with certain Dutch law matters relating to Mr. Palmisano’s role as an executive director. Under the terms of the service agreement, we have allocated a portion of Mr. Palmisano’s annual base salary to his service as an executive director, which amounts are paid after deduction of applicable withholdings for taxes and social security contributions. In addition, under the terms of the service agreement, we have agreed to provide Mr. Palmisano with indemnification and director and officer liability insurance, on terms and conditions that are at least as favorable to Mr. Palmisano as those then provided to any other current or former director or executive officer of Wright or any of its affiliates.

The employment agreement provides that during the term of the agreement, Mr. Palmisano will serve as President and CEO of Wright and each principal operating subsidiary and will report to our Chairman and the Wright Board. During the term, we agreed to nominate Mr. Palmisano for election as an executive director and member of the Wright Board at each annual general meeting of shareholders. The employment agreement expires

158

on December 31, 2020, subject to earlier termination under certain circumstances. On October 1, 2020 and on each anniversary thereafter, the term will automatically extend for an additionalone-year period, unless at least 30 days prior to such date, either party gives notice ofnon-extension to the other.

With respect to compensation, the employment agreement established an annual base salary for Mr. Palmisano and provides that the Wright Board will review his compensation at least annually for any increase. The employment agreement acknowledges that a certain percentage of Mr. Palmisano’s base salary will be paid by Wright in consideration for his services as an executive director under the service agreement described above. The employment agreement provides that Mr. Palmisano is eligible to receive an annual performance incentive bonus depending on whether, and to what extent, certain performance goals established by the compensation committee for such year have been achieved. The amount of the performance incentive bonus payable to Mr. Palmisano will be targeted at least 100% of his annual base salary (currently set at 120%) and will not exceed 200% of his annual base salary. The employment agreement provides that Mr. Palmisano will receive an annual equity grant equal to at least 300% (currently set at 500%) of his annual base salary. In addition, the employment agreement provides that Mr. Palmisano is eligible to participate in the fringe benefit programs, including those for medical and disability insurance and retirement benefits that we generally make available to our executive officers from time to time. During the term, Mr. Palmisano will be reimbursed for up to $1,000 for personal insurance premiums, other than for insurance coverage that pays for medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, or other medical care expenses. In addition, he may elect, in accordance with our cafeteria plan rules, not to participate in the medical and disability insurance programs provided by us, in which case, we will pay him up to $900 per month (or such greater amount that we would otherwise pay for medical and disability coverage for him and his spouse under our benefits programs). Mr. Palmisano is also entitled to receive reimbursement for up to $15,000 for financial and tax planning and tax preparation, and an annual physical examination at our expense. The employment agreement also provides for a monthly allowance of $7,500 for housing and automobile expenses, and Mr. Palmisano will be reimbursed for reasonable travel expenses between Memphis, Tennessee and his residences. To the extent that these reimbursements are not deductible by Mr. Palmisano for income tax purposes, such amounts will be“grossed-up” for income tax purposes so that the reimbursed items will be received net of any deduction for income and payroll taxes. The employment agreement contains severance provisions as described in more detail under “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control.” We have guaranteed the obligations of our subsidiary under Mr. Palmisano’s employment agreement.

Mr. Palmisano and one of our subsidiaries also entered into a confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation and intellectual property rights agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Palmisano agreed to certain covenants that impose obligations on him regarding confidentiality of information, transfer of inventions,non-solicitation of employees, customers and suppliers, andnon-competition with our business.

Agreements with Other Named Executive Officers. Each of the other NEOs also is a party to a confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation and intellectual property rights agreement with us, the material terms of which are substantially similar to Mr. Palmisano’s agreement, as described above. In addition, through one of our subsidiaries, we have entered into separation pay agreements with our NEOs who are currently executive officers, other than Mr. Palmisano, which agreements are described in more detail under “—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control.”

Promotion Offer Letters with Lance A. Berry and Kevin D. Cordell. Effective January 2019, Lance A. Berry was promoted to Executive Vice President, Chief Financial and Operations Officer, and Kevin D. Cordell was promoted to Executive Vice President, Chief Global Commercial Officer. In connection with these promotions, in December 2018, we entered into offer letters with each of these officers pursuant to which we agreed to pay him an annual base salary of $515,000, provide a target annual incentive opportunity equal to 75%, in the case of Mr. Berry, and 70%, in the case of Mr. Cordell, of his annual base salary, and a target long-term incentive opportunity equal to 275%, in the case of Mr. Berry, and 225%, in the case of Mr. Cordell, of his annual base salary.

159

Indemnification Agreements. We have entered into indemnification agreements with all of our NEOs. The indemnification agreements are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and provide, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and our articles of association against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and liabilities, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement that are paid or incurred by the executive or on his or her behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. We 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 Wright. The indemnification agreements provide that the executive will not be indemnified and expenses advanced with respect to an action, suit or proceeding initiated by the executive unless (i) so authorized or consented to by the Wright Board or Wright has joined in such action, suit or proceeding or (ii) the action, suit or proceeding is one to enforce the executive’s rights under the indemnification agreement. Wright’s indemnification and expense advance obligations are subject to the condition that an appropriate person or body not party to the particular action, suit or proceeding shall not have determined that the executive is not permitted to be indemnified under applicable law. The indemnification agreements also set forth procedures that apply in the event an executive requests indemnification or an expense advance.

All Other Compensation for 2019—Supplemental. The table below provides information concerning amounts reported in the “All other compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table—2019” with respect to each NEO. Additional detail on these amounts are provided below the table.

Mr. Regan		11,000		—		—		5,000		—		1,701		—		17,701

Retirement Benefits. Under our 401(k) plan, participants, including our NEOs, may voluntarily request that we reduce his or herpre-tax compensation and contribute such amounts to the 401(k) plan’s trust up to certain statutory maximums. We contribute 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’spre-tax 401(k) contributions (other thancatch-up contributions) for that pay period. We do not provide any nonqualified defined contribution or other deferred compensation plans for our executives.

Perquisites and Other Benefits.We provide our executive officers with modest perquisites to attract and retain them. The perquisites provided to our NEOs during 2019 included $1,000 for certain personal insurance premiums, up to $5,000 reimbursement for financial and tax planning and tax preparation, and supplemental long-term disability insurance. We also provide annual sales award trips for certain executives and their spouses. In addition, we are required to provide our CEO additional perquisites under the terms of his employment agreement, which we agreed upon at the time of his initial hiring by legacy Wright to attract him to our company. These additional perquisites include additional reimbursement for financial and tax planning and tax preparation, a monthly allowance of $7,500 for housing and automobile expenses, reimbursement for reasonable travel expenses between Memphis, Tennessee and his residences, and an annual physical examination. To the extent that the reimbursements for his housing and automobile expenses and travel expenses between Memphis, Tennessee and his residences are not deductible by Mr. Palmisano for income tax purposes, such amounts are“grossed-up” for income tax purposes so that the reimbursed items will be received net of any deduction for income and payroll taxes. We agreed to thisgross-up provision at the time of his initial hiring by legacy Wright to attract him to our company and ease the financial burden on him to travel between Memphis, Tennessee and his residences.

(1) Amounts reported represent estimated future payouts under our performance incentive plan. Actual payouts under these performance incentive plans are reflected in the“Non-equity incentive compensation” column of the “Summary Compensation Table—2019.”

(2) Maximum amounts reflect payouts at a maximum rate of 200% of target for our performance incentive plan.

(3) Amounts reported represent PSU awards granted under our 2017 plan. The PSU awards have a three-year performance period from July 1, 2019 to June 26, 2022. Information regarding the PSU awards is set forth within the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” under “Long-TermIncentives-PSU Awards”.

(4) Amounts reported represent RSU awards granted under our 2017 plan. The RSU awards vest and become issuable over time, with the last tranche becoming issuable on August 15, 2023, in each case, so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of Wright.

(5) Amounts reported represent option awards granted under our 2017 plan. All options have aten-year term and vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the underlying shares vesting on theone-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying shares vesting over a three-year period thereafter in 36 as nearly equal as possible monthly installments, in each case, so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of our company.

161

(6) See notes (3) and (4) to the “Summary Compensation Table—2019” for a discussion of the assumptions made in calculating the grant date fair value of stock and option awards.

(7) Amounts reported represent the grant date fair value of PSU awards, assuming target performance, based on the closing price of our Shares, as reported by Nasdaq, on July 26, 2019, the date of grant, of $27.84. These amounts are reflected in the “Stock Awards” column of the “Summary Compensation Table—2019.”

Wright Medical Group N.V. Performance Incentive Plan. Under the terms of the Wright Medical Group N.V. Performance Incentive Plan, our NEOs, as well as other employees, may earn cash incentive bonuses based on our financial performance for 2019. The material terms of the plan are described in detail under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis-Short-Term Cash Incentive Compensation.”

Wright Medical Group N.V. Amended and Restated 2017 Equity and Incentive Plan.At an annual general meeting of shareholders held on June 28, 2019, our shareholders approved the 2017 plan, which permits the grant of a wide variety of stock-based and cash-based awards, includingnon-statutory and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, performance awards, annual performance cash awards,non-employee director awards, other cash-based awards and other stock-based awards. Our 2017 plan is designed to assist us in attracting and retaining employees, directors and consultants, provide an additional incentive to such individuals to work to increase the value of our Shares, and provide such individuals with a stake in our future which corresponds to the stake of our shareholders.

The 2017 plan reserves for issuance a number of Shares equal to the sum of (i) 11,200,000 Shares, (ii) the number of Shares available for grant under the Wright Medical Group N.V. Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Plan as of June 23, 2017 (not including issued or outstanding shares granted pursuant to options under such plan as of such date) which was 1,329,648, and (iii) the number of Shares forfeited upon the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture, cash settlement, or other termination following June 23, 2017 under our 2010 plan which was 6,405,992. As of December 29, 2019, 6,735,115 Shares remained available for future grant of equity awards under the 2017 plan, assuming maximum PSU payouts.

Shares that are issued under the 2017 plan or that are subject to outstanding awards will be applied to reduce the maximum number of Shares remaining available for issuance under the 2017 plan only to the extent they are used; provided, however, that the full number of Shares subject to a stock-settled SAR or other stock-based award will be counted against the Shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 plan, regardless of the number of Shares actually issued upon settlement of such SAR or other stock-based award. Furthermore, any Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations on awards issued under the 2017 plan, any Shares withheld to pay the exercise price or grant price of awards under the 2017 plan and any Shares not issued or delivered as a result of the “net exercise” of an outstanding option or settlement of a SAR in shares will be counted against the Shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 plan and will not be available again for grant under the 2017 plan. Any Shares subject to awards settled in cash will again be available for issuance under the 2017 plan. Any Shares repurchased by us 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 granted under the 2017 plan, and Shares related to awards granted under the 2010 plan, that terminate by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise without the issuance of the Shares, will be available again for grant under the 2017 plan and correspondingly increase the total number of Shares available for issuance under the 2017 plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Shares issued in assumption of, or in substitution for, any outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form of combination by us will not be counted against Shares available for issuance pursuant to the 2017 plan. The Shares available for issuance under the 2017 plan may be authorized and unissued Shares or Shares which have been reacquired by us.

Under the terms of the 2017 plan, stock options must be granted with a per share exercise price equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of a Share on the grant date. For purposes of the plan, the fair market value of a Share is the closing sale price of our Shares, as reported by Nasdaq. We set 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 our Shares on the grant date. Options become exercisable at such times and in such installments as may be determined by the

162

Wright Board, provided that most options may not be exercisable after 10 years from their grant date. The vesting of our stock options is generally time-based and is as follows: 25% of the Shares underlying the stock option vest on theone-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying Shares vest over a three-year period thereafter in 36 as nearly equal as possible monthly installments, in each case so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of Wright.

Currently, optionees must pay the exercise price of stock options in cash, except that the 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, we will not require a payment of the exercise price of the option from the grantee but will reduce the number of our 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.

The 2017 plan provides for certain default rules in the event of a termination of a participant’s employment or other service. These default rules may be modified in an award agreement, any individual agreement between a participant and us or any plan or policy of Wright applicable to the participant. If a participant’s employment or other service with us is terminated for cause, then all outstanding awards held by such participant will be immediately terminated and forfeited. In the event a participant’s employment or other service with us is terminated by reason of death or disability, then:

• All outstanding stock options and SARs held by the participant will, to the extent exercisable, remain exercisable for a period of one year after such termination, but not later than the date the stock options or SARs expire and all outstanding stock options and SARs that are not exercisable will be terminated and forfeited; provided, however, that if the exercise of a stock option that is exercisable is prevented by securities laws or other restrictions, the stock option will remain exercisable until 30 days after the date such exercise first would no longer be prevented by such provisions, but in any event no later than the date the stock option expires;

• All outstanding unvested restricted stock awards will be terminated and forfeited; and

• All outstanding but unvested RSUs, performance awards, annual performance cash awards, other cash-based awards and other stock-based awards held by the participant will terminate and be forfeited. However, with respect to any awards that vest based on the achievement of performance goals, if a participant’s employment or other service with us is terminated 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 cause 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 the number of months or years that the participant was employed or performed services during the performance period.

In the event a participant’s employment or other service with us is terminated by reason other than for cause, death or disability, 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 such termination, but will not be exercisable later than the date the stock options or SARs expire and all outstanding stock options and SARs that are not exercisable will be terminated and forfeited; provided, however, that if the exercise of a stock option that is exercisable is prevented by securities laws or other restrictions, the stock option will remain exercisable until 30 days after the date such exercise first would no longer be prevented by such provisions, but in any event no later than the date the stock option expires;

• All outstanding unvested restricted stock awards will be terminated and forfeited; and

163

• All outstanding unvested RSUs, performance awards, annual performance cash awards, other cash-based awards and other stock-based awards will be terminated and forfeited. However, with respect to any awards that vest based on the achievement of performance goals, if a participant’s employment or other service with us is terminated 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 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 the number of months or years that the participant was employed or performed services during the performance period.

Upon a participant’s termination of employment or other service with us, the committee may, in its discretion (which may be exercised at any time on or after the grant date, including following such termination) cause stock options or SARs (or any part thereof) held by such participant as of the effective date of such termination to become or continue to become exercisable or remain exercisable following such termination of employment or service, and restricted stock, RSUs, performance awards, annual performance cash awards, other cash-based awards and other stock-based awards held by such participant as of the effective date of such termination to 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 (a) no stock option or SAR may remain exercisable beyond its expiration date; (b) the committee may not adjust the amount payable pursuant to an award under the 2017 plan that is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) upwards (unless the applicable tax or securities laws change to permit committee discretion to alter the governing performance measures without obtaining shareholder approval, in which case the committee will have sole discretion to make such changes without obtaining shareholder approval); and (c) any such action by the committee adversely affecting any outstanding award will not be effective without the consent of the affected participant, except to the extent the committee is authorized by the 2017 plan to take such action.

If a participant is determined by the committee to have taken any action while providing services to us or within one year after termination of such services, that would constitute “cause” or an “adverse action,” as such terms are defined in the 2017 plan, all rights of the participant under the 2017 plan and any agreements evidencing an award then held by the participant will terminate and be forfeited. The committee has the authority to rescind the exercise, vesting, issuance or payment in respect of any awards of the participant that were exercised, vested, issued or paid, and require the participant to pay to us, within 10 days of receipt of notice, any amount received or the amount gained as a result of any such rescinded exercise, vesting, issuance or payment. We may defer the exercise of any stock option or SAR for up to six months after receipt of notice of exercise in order for the committee to determine whether “cause” or “adverse action” exists. We are entitled to withhold and deduct future wages to collect any amount due.

All awards also are subject to any required automatic clawback, forfeiture or other penalties pursuant to any applicable law, including without limitation under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, all awards are subject to clawback, forfeiture or other penalties pursuant to any policy adopted by us and such clawback, forfeiture and/or penalty conditions or provisions as determined by the committee. In 2017, we adopted a clawback policy that provides for the clawback of certain incentive compensation in the event of certain financial accounting restatements.

As a condition of receiving awards, recipients, including our NEOs, must agree to pay all applicable tax withholding obligations in connection with the awards. In the case of our RSU and PSU award grants, recipients upon acceptance of the award may provide a“sell-to-cover” instruction pursuant to which the executive gives instructions to, and authorizes, a brokerage firm to sell on the executive’s behalf that number of Shares issuable upon vesting of the award as determined to be appropriate to generate cash proceeds sufficient to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligations.

164

As described in more detail under “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control,”if a change in control of our company occurs, which would include the closing of the Stryker acquisition, then under certain circumstances, the award may vest or lapse.

(1) All stock options vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the underlying Shares vesting on theone-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the underlying Shares vesting over a three-year period thereafter in 36 as nearly equal as possible monthly installments, in each case so long as the individual remains an employee or consultant of Wright. If a change in control of our company occurs, outstanding options may become immediately exercisable in full and remain exercisable for the remainder of their terms, depending upon the plan under which the options were granted and, in the case of options granted under the 2017 plan, whether the option is continued, assumed or substituted by the successor entity and whether the executive experiences a termination event in connection with or within two years following the change in control. For more information, including the anticipated treatment of outstanding options if our acquisition transaction with Stryker is completed, see the discussion under “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control.”

(2) All option awards have a10-year term, but may terminate earlier if the recipient’s employment or service relationship with Wright terminates.

Potential Payments Upon a Termination or Change in Control

Employment Agreement with Robert J. Palmisano. Effective October 1, 2015, Wright Medical Group, Inc., one of our subsidiaries, entered into an employment agreement with Robert J. Palmisano, our President and CEO. Under the terms of our employment agreement with Mr. Palmisano, in the event of a termination of his employment, the post-employment pay and benefits, if any, to be received by him will vary according to the basis for his termination. We have guaranteed the obligations under the employment agreement since our subsidiary, Wright Medical Group, Inc., is party to the agreement. The employment agreement will continue until December 31, 2020, subject to earlier termination under certain circumstances, and on October 1, 2020, will automatically renew for additionalone-year periods unless we or Mr. Palmisano provides notice ofnon-extension of the agreement.

In the event that Mr. Palmisano’s employment is terminated for “cause” or he terminates his employment other than for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement) or disability, we will have no obligations to him, other than payment of accrued obligations. Accrued obligations include: (i) any accrued base salary through the date of termination; (ii) any annual cash incentive compensation awards earned but not

167

yet paid; (iii) the value of any accrued vacation; (iv) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business expenses; and (v) only in the case of a termination at any time by reason of death or disability, his annual target incentive payment for the year that includes the date of termination.

In the event of an involuntary termination of his employment, we will be required to provide him, in addition to his accrued obligations: (i) a lump sum payment equal to two andone-half times the sum of: (a) his then current annual base salary; plus (b) his annual target incentive bonus; (ii) payment or reimbursement for the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 12 months; (iii) outplacement assistance for a period of 12 months, subject to termination if Mr. Palmisano accepts employment with another employer; (iv) financial planning services for a period of 12 months; and (v) an annual physical examination within 12 months of termination.

In the event of a termination of his employment due to death or disability, we will be required to provide him, in addition to his accrued obligations, his annual target incentive bonus.

In the event of an involuntary termination of his employment in anticipation of or within a24-month period following a “change in control,” we will be required to provide him, in addition to his accrued obligations: (i) a lump sum payment equal to three times the sum of: (a) his then current annual base salary, plus (b) his annual target incentive bonus; (ii) his annual target incentive bonus for the year in which his termination occurs; (iii) payment or reimbursement for the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 12 months; (iv) outplacement assistance for a period of 12 months, subject to termination if Mr. Palmisano accepts employment with another employer; (v) financial planning services for a period of 12 months; and (vi) an annual physical examination within 12 months of termination.

Upon termination for any reason other than for cause, disability, or death, Mr. Palmisano must enter into a release of all claims within 30 days after the date of termination before any payments will be made to him under the employment agreement, other than accrued obligations. If he breaches the terms of the confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation, intellectual property rights agreement, then our obligations to make payments or provide benefits will cease immediately and permanently, and he will be required to repay an amount equal to 30% of the post-employment payments and benefits previously provided to him under the employment agreement, with interest. The employment agreement provides for other clawback and forfeiture provisions, including if we are required to restate our financial statements under certain circumstances. All payments under his employment agreement will be net of applicable tax withholding obligations. The agreement also provides that if any severance payments or other payments or benefits deemed made in connection with a future change in control are subject to the “golden parachute” excise tax under Code Section 4999, the payments will be reduced to one dollar less than the amount that would subject him to the excise tax if the reduction results in him receiving a greater amount on anet-after tax basis than would be received if he received the payments and benefits and paid the excise tax.

Severance Pay Agreements with Other Named Executive Officers. Our subsidiary, Wright Medical Group, Inc., has entered into separation pay agreements with our NEOs, other than Mr. Palmisano. We have guaranteed the obligations under these separation pay agreements. The separation pay agreements will continue until October 1, 2021 and, on October 1, 2020, will automatically renew for additionalone-year periods unless we or the executive provides notice of termination of the agreement.

Under the terms of the separation pay agreement, in the event that the executive is terminated for cause or the executive terminates his employment other than for good reason or disability, we will have no obligations, other than payment of accrued obligations. Accrued obligations include: (i) any accrued base salary through the date of termination; (ii) any annual cash incentive compensation awards earned but not yet paid; (iii) the value of any accrued vacation; (iv) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business expenses; and (v) only in the case of a termination at any time by reason of death or disability, an annual incentive target bonus for the year that includes the date of termination, prorated for the portion of the year that the executive was employed.

168

In the event of an involuntary termination of the executive’s employment, other than for cause, we will be obligated to pay a severance payment and accrued obligations and provide certain benefits to the executive. The severance payment will equal the sum of (i) the executive’s then current annual base salary, plus (ii) an amount equal to his then current annual target bonus. Half of the total severance payment amount will be payable at or within a reasonable time after the date of termination and the remaining half will be payable in installments beginning six months after the date of termination, with a final installment to be made on or before March 15 of the calendar year following the year of termination. In the event of an involuntary termination of the executive’s employment in connection with a change in control, then his severance payment will equal two times the amount of his severance payment as described above. Under the separation pay agreement, an involuntary termination of the executive’s employment will occur if we terminate the executive’s employment other than for cause, disability, voluntary retirement, or death or if the executive resigns for good reason, in each case as defined in the separation pay agreement.

In addition to a severance payment, the executive also will be entitled to receive the following benefits in the event of an involuntary termination of his employment: (i) a pro rata portion of the executive’s annual cash incentive compensation award for the fiscal year that includes the termination date, if earned pursuant to the terms thereof and at such time and in such manner as determined pursuant to the terms thereof, less any payments thereof already made during such fiscal year (or, in the event of an involuntary termination in connection with a change in control, a pro rata portion of the executive’s target annual cash incentive compensation award for the fiscal year that includes the termination date, less any payments thereof already made during such fiscal year); (ii) payment or reimbursement for the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for up to 12 months (18 months in the event of an involuntary termination in connection with a change in control); (iii) outplacement assistance for a period of one year (two years in the event of an involuntary termination in connection with a change in control), subject to termination if the executive accepts employment with another employer; (iv) financial planning services for a period of one year (two years in the event of an involuntary termination in connection with a change in control); (v) payment to continue insurance coverage equal to the executive’s annual supplemental insurance premium benefit provided to him or her prior to the date of termination (twice the premium benefit in the event of an involuntary termination in connection with a change in control); (vi) an annual physical examination within 12 months of termination; and (vii) reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses if any such fees or expenses are incurred to recover benefits rightfully owed under the separation pay agreement.

In the event of a termination of an executive’s employment due to death or disability, we will be required to provide the executive, in addition to his or her accrued obligations, a pro rata portion of his or her annual target incentive bonus.

Upon termination for any reason other than cause, disability, or death, the executive must enter into a release of all claims within 30 days after the date of termination before any payments will be made to the executive under the separation pay agreement, other than accrued obligations. If the executive breaches the terms of the confidentiality,non-competition,non-solicitation, and intellectual property rights agreement or the release, then our obligations to make payments or provide benefits will cease immediately and permanently, and the executive will be required to repay an amount equal 90% of the payments and benefits previously provided to the executive under the separation pay agreement, with interest. All payments under the separation pay agreement will be net of applicable tax withholding obligations. The separation pay agreement provides that if any severance payments or other payments or benefits deemed made in connection with a future change in control are subject to the “golden parachute” excise tax under Code Section 4999, the payments will be reduced to one dollar less than the amount that would subject the executive to the excise tax if the reduction results in the executive receiving a greater amount on anet-after tax basis than would be received if the executive received the payments and benefits and paid the excise tax.

Change in Control Provisions in Equity Plans. Our equity plans under which awards have been granted to our NEOs contain “change in control” provisions.

169

Under our current 2017 equity plan, a “change in control” means:

• the acquisition (other than from us) by any person, entity or group, subject to certain exceptions, of 50% or more of either our then-outstanding Shares or the combined voting power of our then-outstanding Shares or the combined voting power of our 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 Wright Board;

• consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, in each case, with respect to which persons who were our 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 our shareholders of a liquidation or dissolution of Wright; or

• the consummation of the sale of all or substantially all of our assets with respect to which persons who were our 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).

Under the 2017 equity plan, if a change in control of Wright occurs, then if an award is continued, assumed or substituted by the successor entity, the award will not vest or lapse solely as a result of the change of control but will instead remain outstanding under the terms pursuant to which it has been continued, assumed or substituted and will continue to vest or lapse pursuant to such terms. If the award is continued, assumed or substituted by the successor entity and within two years following the change in control the participant is either terminated by the successor entity without “cause” or, if the participant is an employee, resigns for “good reason,” each as defined in the 2017 plan, then:

• All outstanding stock options and SARs held by such participant will become immediately vested and exercisable in full and will remain exercisable for the remainder of their respective terms;

• All restrictions imposed on restricted stock, RSUs or deferred units that are not performance-based held by such participant will lapse and be of no further force and effect;

• All performance-based awards held by such participant for which the performance period has been completed as of the date of such termination or resignation but have not yet been paid will vest and be paid in cash or Shares and at such time as provided in the award agreement based on actual attainment of each performance goal; and

• All performance-based awards held by such participant for which the performance period has not been completed as of the date of such termination or resignation will with respect to each performance goal vest and be paid out for the entire performance period (and not pro rata) based on actual performance achieved through the date of such termination or resignation with the manner of payment to be made in cash or shares as provided in the award agreement within 30 days following the date of termination or resignation.

If a change in control of Wright occurs, and if an award participant suffers a “termination of continued employment” in connection with such change in control, or if outstanding awards are not continued, assumed or substituted with equivalent awards by the successor entity, or in the case of a dissolution or liquidation of Wright, outstanding awards will be subject to the following rules:

• All outstanding stock options and SARs will become fully vested and exercisable and the committee will give such participant a reasonable opportunity to exercise any and all stock options and SARs before but conditioned upon the resulting change in control and if a participant does not exercise all stock options and SARs, the committee will pay such participant the difference between the exercise

price for the stock option or grant price for the SAR and the per share consideration provided to other similarly situated shareholders in the change in control, provided that if the exercise or grant price exceeds the consideration in the change in control, provided, however, that if the exercise price or grant price exceeds the consideration provided, then such exercised stock option or SAR will be canceled and terminated without payment;

• All restrictions imposed on restricted stock, RSUs or deferred units that are not performance-based will lapse and be of no further force and effect, and RSUs and deferred units will be settled and paid in cash or Shares and at such time as provided in the award agreement, provided, however, that if any such payment is to be made in Shares, the committee may provide such holders the consideration provided to other similarly situated shareholders in the change in control;

• All performance-based awards held by such participant for which the performance period has been completed as of the date of the change in control but have not yet been paid will vest and be paid in cash or Shares and at such time as provided in the award agreement based on actual attainment of each performance goal; and

• All performance-based awards held by such participant for which the performance period has not been completed as of the date of the change in control will with respect to each performance goal vest and be paid out for the entire performance period (and not pro rata) based on actual performance achieved through the date of the change in control with the manner of payment to be made in cash or Shares as provided in the award agreement within 30 days following the change in control.

These change in control provisions may not be terminated, amended or modified in any manner that adversely affects any then-outstanding award or award participant without the prior written consent of such participant.

The 2017 plan defines “cause” as, unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, cause as defined in any employment, consulting, severance or similar agreement between the participant and us (an “individual agreement”), or if there is no such individual agreement or if it does not define cause: (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 or conduct resulting or intending to result directly or indirectly in gain or personal enrichment for the participant at our expense; (ii) the participant has engaged or is about to engage in conduct materially injurious to us; (iii) the participant has engaged in or is about to engage in conduct that is materially inconsistent with our legal and healthcare compliance policies, programs or obligations, including but not limited to our code of business conduct and ethics and our code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality; (iv) the participant’s bar from participation in programs administered by the United States Department of Health and Human Services or the United States Food and Drug Administration or any succeeding agencies; (v) the participant’s conviction of or entering of a guilty or no contest plea to a felony charge (or equivalent thereof) in any jurisdiction; or (vi) the participant has engaged in a material breach of any employment, service, confidentiality,non-compete ornon-solicitation agreement entered into with us or a breach of any company policy for which termination of employment or service is a permissible consequence of such breach.

The 2017 plan defines “good reason” as, unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, the occurrence of any of the following without the prior written consent of the participant, unless such act or failure to act is corrected by us within 30 days of the participant providing notice of the occurrence: (a) a material reduction in the participant’s then current responsibilities or assignment to the participant of duties materially inconsistent with such participant’s then current range of duties and responsibilities; and for the avoidance of doubt, the following circumstances would be considered a material reduction of a participant’s responsibilities: (i) the reporting structure of a participant who reports to the chief executive officer of the entire organization is modified or the participant is informed that it will be modified such that the participant would no longer report to such chief executive officer or (ii) a participant who is the chief executive officer or organization-wide leader of

171

a material function in a public company would no longer be, or is informed that he or she will no longer be, the chief executive officer or organization-wide leader of such function, or would no longer lead that function in a public company environment; (b) a material reduction (i.e., more than 10%) in the participant’s aggregate annualized compensation target (including bonus opportunity as a percentage of base salary) and benefits opportunities, except for an across the board reduction or modification to any benefit plan affecting all similarly situated participants; (c) failure to pay to the participant any portion of the participant’s current compensation and benefits, under any plan, program or policy of, or other contract or agreement within 30 days of the date such compensation and/or benefits are due; (d) cancellation or material reduction in scope of any indemnification and/or director and officer liability insurance; (e) the relocation of the participant’s then current principal place of employment, or principal location, to a location which is more than 40 miles from the principal location; or (f) material breach other than by the participant of any material provision of the participant’s employment, severance or similar agreement.

The 2017 plan defines “termination of continued employment” as termination of an individual’s employment with our company or if the individual is a director, his or her service as a director, without cause in connection with a change of control and includes, by way of example and without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) such individual is notified within the 60 day period preceding the change of control that the individual’s employment is or will be terminated without cause prior to or after the change of control, (ii) such individual is notified within the 60 day period preceding the change of control that the individual’s continued employment with our company after the change of control is conditioned upon acceptance of a position with the successor or an affiliate of the successor under terms which would entitle the individual to resign for good reason and the individual in fact resigns for good reason on this basis, and (iii) such individual is a director and will not become a director of the successor parent immediately after the change in control.

Under the terms of our 2010 equity plan, if there is a change in control of Wright, 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 RSU awards will be deemed satisfied. 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.

Anticipated Treatment of Equity in Connection with Stryker Acquisition. If the Stryker acquisition is completed, the Purchase Agreement provides for the treatment of outstanding stock options, RSU awards and PSU awards as follows:

• Each stock option (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the date on which Stryker accepts all tendered shares (the “Acceptance Time”) will vest in full at the Acceptance Time; provided that any stock options granted after July 1, 2020 will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time. The holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the difference between $30.75 and the per share exercise price of the respective stock option multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares subject to the unexercised stock option they hold immediately prior to the closing.

• Each RSU award that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (whether held by directors, executive officers or other employees) will vest in full at the Acceptance Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any RSUs granted after July 1, 2020 (“2020 RSUs”) will be subject to pro rata vesting based on the number of days elapsed between the date of grant and the Acceptance Time and any portion of any 2020 RSU that does not become so vested will terminate and be cancelled at the Acceptance Time, without consideration paid therefor. At the closing, all outstanding RSUs that are vested will be cancelled and, in exchange for such cancelled RSUs, the holders thereof will be

172

entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the total number of shares deliverable under the RSUs they hold immediately prior to the closing multiplied by $30.75.

• Each PSU award that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Acceptance Time will vest in full at the Acceptance Time, with any applicable performance conditions associated with such PSUs deemed to have been achieved at maximum performance. At the closing, PSUs will be cancelled and, in exchange for such cancelled PSUs, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) equal to the total number of Shares deliverable under the PSUs they hold immediately prior to the closing multiplied by $30.75.

Potential Payments to Named Executive Officers.The table below reflects the amount of compensation and benefits payable to each NEO, in the event of (i) any voluntary resignation or termination or termination for cause; (ii) an involuntary termination without cause; (iii) an involuntary termination without cause or a resignation for good reason within 12 months (24 months in the case of Mr. Palmisano and two years in the case of equity awards acceleration) following a change in control, or a qualifying change in control termination; (iv) termination by reason of an executive’s death or disability; and (v) a change in control. The amounts reported in the table assume that the applicable triggering event occurred on December 29, 2019, and, therefore, are estimates of the amounts that would be paid to the NEOs upon the occurrence of such triggering event.

(1) The benefit amounts set forth in the table do not reflect any reduction that may be necessary to prevent the payment from being subject to an excise tax under Code Section 280G, if applicable.

(2) Assumes payment equal to full target annual bonus for the year in which the termination date occurs.

(3) Reflects the cost of financial planning services and continued executive insurance. Reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses is not included as the amount is not estimable.

(4) Based on the difference between: (i) the per Share market price of the Shares underlying the unvested stock options held by such executive as of December 27, 2019, the last trading day of fiscal 2019, based upon the closing sale price of our Shares, as reported by Nasdaq, on the last trading day of our fiscal year, December 27, 2019 ($30.58), and (ii) the per Share exercise price of the options held by such executive. The per Share exercise price of all unvested stock options held by our NEOs included in the table as of December 29, 2019 range from $21.24 to $27.86. The “Change in Control” scenario assumes that options granted under the 2017 plan are not continued, assumed or substituted with equivalent awards in connection with the change in control.

(5) Based on: (i) the number of unvested RSU awards held by such executive as of December 29, 2019, multiplied by (ii) the per share market price of our Shares as of December 27, 2019, the last trading day of fiscal 2019, based upon the closing sale price of our Shares, as reported by Nasdaq, on the last trading day of our fiscal year, December 27, 2019 ($30.58). The “Change in Control” scenario assumes that RSU awards granted under the 2017 plan are not continued, assumed or substituted with equivalent awards in connection with the change in control.

(6) Amounts reported represent the value of the immediate payout of the maximum number of Shares that the NEO would have been entitled to receive as payout for PSU awards. The value is based on: (a) the number of outstanding PSU awards at maximum, multiplied by (b) the closing sale price of our Shares, as reported by Nasdaq, on the last trading day of our fiscal year, December 27, 2019 ($30.58). The “Change in Control” scenario assumes that PSU awards granted under the 2017 plan are not continued, assumed or substituted with equivalent awards in connection with the change in control and are paid out, assuming maximum performance.

CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure

Under Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(u) of SEC RegulationS-K, we are required to provide the ratio of the annual total compensation of Robert J. Palmisano, our CEO, to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees of Wright (other than the CEO).

For fiscal 2019:

• the annual total compensation of our CEO was $7,310,421;

• the annual total compensation of the employee identified at median of our company (excluding our CEO) was $68,903; and

• based on this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of our median employee (identified in accordance with SEC rules and as described in greater detail below) was estimated to be 106:1.

This ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described below. The SEC rules for identifying the “median employee” and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, apply certain exclusions, and make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. Accordingly, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported by us, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their pay ratios.

To identify our median employee and to calculate the annual total compensation of our median employee and that of our CEO, we used the following methodology, assumptions and estimates:

• Identification of Median Employee. Under SEC rules, the median employee is only required to be identified once every three years if there has been no change in our employee population or compensation arrangements or in the median employee’s circumstances that we reasonably believe would significantly affect our pay ratio disclosure. Because there were no such changes, we did notre-identify a new median employee for 2019, but rather used the same median employee from last year. To identify our median employee last year, we used the methodology described below:

We determined that, as of October 15, 2018, our worldwide employee population, excluding our CEO, consisted of 2,874 total employees, of which 1,779 employees were employed in the United States and 1,095 employees were employed innon-U.S. jurisdictions. In determining this population, we considered the employees of our subsidiaries and all of our worldwide employees other than our CEO, whether employed on a full-time, part-time, temporary or seasonal basis. We did not include any contractors or othernon-employee workers in our employee population. As permitted under SEC rules, we selected October 15, 2018, which is within the last three months of the end of our fiscal year 2018, as the date we would use to identify our employee population and “median employee” to allow sufficient time to identify the median employee given the global scope of our operations.

To identify the “median employee” from our employee population, we selected target annual total cash compensation, including annual base salary or hourly wages, target annual bonus, target commissions, and comparable cash elements of compensation innon-U.S. jurisdictions, for fiscal year 2018, as the most appropriate measure of compensation. To make them comparable, base salaries and wages for newly hired permanent employees who had worked less than a year were annualized. As part of this analysis, we converted target annual total cash compensation of ournon-U.S. employees from local currency to U.S. dollars using average foreign currency exchange rates from January 1, 2018 to October 15, 2018.

175

• Calculation of Median Employee’s Annual Total Compensation. In accordance with applicable SEC rules, we calculated 2019 annual total compensation for this median employee using the same methodology we use for our NEOs, as set forth in our “Summary Compensation Table—2019” included under “Executive Compensation—Summary Compensation Information” beginning on page 157.

• Calculation of CEO’s Annual Total Compensation. With respect to the 2019 annual total compensation of our CEO, we used the amount set forth in the “Total Compensation” column of our “Summary Compensation Table—2019” included under “Executive Compensation—Summary Compensation Information”beginning on page 157.

Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies, Practices, and Programs

As a result of our annual assessment on risk in our compensation programs, we concluded that our compensation policies, practices, and programs and related compensation governance structure, work together in a manner so as to encourage our employees, including our NEOs, to pursue growth strategies that emphasize shareholder value creation, but not to take unnecessary or excessive risks that could threaten the value of Wright. As part of our assessment, we noted in particular the following:

• annual base salaries for employees are not subject to performance risk and, for mostnon-executive employees, constitute the largest part of their total compensation;

• performance-based, or at risk, compensation awarded to our employees, which for our higher-level employees constitutes the largest part of their total compensation, is appropriately balanced between annual and long-term performance and cash and equity compensation, utilizes several different performance measures and goals that are drivers of long-term success for Wright and shareholders, and has appropriate maximums; and

• a significant portion of performance-based compensation is in the form of long-term equity incentives which do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk because they generally vest over a three to four-year period of time thereby focusing our employees on our long-term interests.

As a matter of best practice, we will continue to monitor our compensation policies, practices, and programs to ensure that they continue to align the interest of our employees, including in particular our executive officers, with those of our long-term shareholders while avoiding unnecessary or excessive risk.

Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy

Our code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality addresses hedging, pledging and other transactions which might give the appearance of impropriety. We consider it inappropriate for any person subject to the code, including all directors, officers and employees and certain consultants of Wright (collectively “Wright personnel”), to engage in short-term or speculative transactions in our securities and certain other transactions where there is a heightened legal risk or the appearance of inappropriate conduct. Accordingly, our code of conduct on insider trading and confidentiality either prohibits or limits the following types of transactions:

• Short-term trading. Wright personnel who purchase Wright securities in the open market may not sell any Wright securities of the same class during the six months following the purchase since short-term trading creates an appearance of impropriety and may unduly focus Wright personnel on Wright’s short-term stock market performance instead of our long-term business objectives.

• Short sales. Short sales of Wright securities are prohibited since such transactions may evidence an expectation on the part of the seller that the securities will decline in value, and therefore, have the potential to signal to the market that the seller lacks confidence in Wright and our short-term prospects.

• Publicly-traded options. Wright personnel are prohibited from engaging in transactions in put options, call options or other derivative securities involving Wright securities, whether on an exchange or

176

otherwise, since a transaction in options is, in effect, a bet on the short-term movement of our ordinary share price and therefore creates the appearance that a person is trading based on inside information. Such transactions also may focus the attention of Wright personnel on short-term performance at the expense of our long-term objectives.

• Hedging transactions. Wright personnel are prohibited from engaging in hedging or monetization transactions involving Wright securities, such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, since such transactions may permit Wright personnel to own Shares obtained through employee benefit plans or otherwise but without the full risks and rewards of ownership and when that occurs, the such individuals may no longer have the same objectives as our other shareholders.

• Pledging transactions. Wright personnel are prohibited from engaging in any pledging transactions, unless approved in advance by our general counsel. Individuals wishing to pledge Wright securities who have a compelling reason for the pledge and are able to demonstrate the financial capacity to repay the loan without resort to the pledged securities must submit the proposed transaction for prior approval by our general counsel prior to the proposed execution of documents evidencing the proposed transaction and must set forth a compelling justification for the proposed transaction.

• Margin accounts. Wright personnel are limited in using margin accounts since they can lead to inadvertent insider trading violations and unfavorable publicity for Wright if sales are made by the lender or broker when an individual that possesses inside information fails to meet a margin call. The use of margin accounts also can result in violations under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Wright personnel who desire to margin Wright securities must submit the proposed transaction for approval by our general counsel prior to the proposed execution of documents evidencing the proposed transaction and must set forth a compelling justification for the proposed transaction.

• Standing and limit orders. Wright personnel are discouraged from placing standing or limit orders for Wright securities such order create heightened risks for insider trading violations similar to the use of margin accounts as there is no control over the timing of purchases or sales that result from standing instructions to a broker, and as a result the broker could execute a transaction when Wright personnel is in possession of inside information. If an individual determines that he must use a standing or limit order, the order should be used only for a very brief period of time.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

John L. Miclot (Chair), J. Patrick Mackin and Amy S. Paul currently serve as members of the compensation committee of the Wright Board. From January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019, John L. Miclot (Chair), J. Patrick Mackin, Kevin C. O’Boyle and Elizabeth H. Weatherman served as members of the compensation committee. No member of the compensation committee is or was an officer or employee of ours or any of our subsidiaries while serving on the compensation committee. In addition, no executive officer of ours currently serves or served during 2019 as a director or a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has or had an executive officer serving as our director or a member of the compensation committee.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Overview

Under the terms of our shareholder-approved board of directors compensation policy, the compensation packages for ournon-executive directors are determined by ournon-executive directors, based upon a recommendation by the compensation committee. Such compensation is determined by ournon-executive directors pursuant to the terms of our 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 ournon-executive directors. In determiningnon-executive director compensation, we target compensation in the market median range of our peer companies; although, we may deviate from the median if we determine necessary or appropriate on acase-by-case basis.

In 2019, the compensation committee engaged Mercer to review ournon-executive director compensation program. In so doing, Mercer analyzed the outside director compensation levels and practices of our peer companies. Mercer used the same peer group as was approved by the compensation committee and used to gather compensation information for our executive officers. Based on Mercer’s recommendations, the compensation committee recommended and the Wright Board approved no changes to ournon-executive director program.

Under the terms of ournon-executive director compensation program, compensation for ournon-executive directors is comprised of both cash compensation and equity-based compensation. Cash compensation is in the form of annual retainers fornon-executive directors, chairman, committee chairs, and committee members. Equity-based compensation is in the form of annual stock option and RSU award grants. Each of these components is described in more detail below. We do not provide perquisites and other personal benefits to ournon-executive directors. Ournon-executive director compensation program is consistent with our shareholder-approved board of directors compensation policy.

Cash Compensation

The table below sets forth the annual cash retainers paid to eachnon-executive director and the additional annual cash retainers paid to the chairman and each board committee chair and board committee member during 2019:

	Annual cash retainer
Description	2019 ($)
Non-executive director		60,000
Chairman premium		75,000
Audit committee chair premium		20,000
Compensation committee chair premium		15,000
Nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee chair premium		10,000
Strategic transactions committee chair premium		10,000
Audit committee member (including chair)		15,000
Compensation committee member (including chair)		8,000
Nominating, corporate governance and compliance committee member (including chair)		7,000
Strategic transactions committee member (including chair)		5,000

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, eachnon-executive director 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.

178

Equity-Based Compensation

The equity-based component of ournon-executive director compensation consists of annual stock option and RSU awards granted under our 2017 equity plan. During 2019, eachnon-executive director received $210,000 in equity grants,one-half of which was paid in stock options and the remainingone-half paid in RSU awards. The number of Shares underlying the awards was determined based on the10-trading day average closing sale price of a Share, as reported by Nasdaq, and as determined on the third trading day prior to the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award. These grants were effective as of the same date as annual employee equity grants.

The stock options have a term of 10 years, a per share exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of an ordinary share on the grant date and vest in full on theone-year anniversary of the grant date so long as the director is still a director as of such date. The RSU awards vest in full on theone-year anniversary of the grant date so long as the director is still a director as of such date.

Election to Receive Equity-Based Compensation in Lieu of Cash Compensation

Ournon-executive director compensation policy allows ournon-executive directors to elect to receive an RSU award in lieu of 100% of their annual cash retainers payable for services to be rendered as anon-executive director, chairman and chair or member of any board committee. Eachnon-executive director who elects to receive an RSU award in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers is granted an RSU award under our 2017 equity plan for that number of 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 the10-trading day average closing sale price of our Shares as reported by Nasdaq and as determined on the third trading day prior to the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award. These RSU awards are typically granted effective as of the same date that other director equity grants are made and vest in four equal installments on the following September 30^th, December 31^st, March 31^st and June 30^th.

If anon-executive director who elected to receive an RSU award in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers is no longer a director before such director’s interest in all of the Shares underlying RSU award have vested and become issuable, then, subject to certain exceptions, the director will forfeit his or her rights to receive all of the Shares underling such RSU award that have not vested and been issued as of the date the director’s status as a director so terminates. In such case, thenon-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 anon-executive director who elected to receive an RSU award 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 30 of the next year) to receive an RSU award in lieu of such director’s annual cash retainers.

If anon-executive director who elected to receive an RSU award 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 RSU award 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 RSU award 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 RSU award will be revised appropriately to reflect any such change in the number of shares underlying the RSU award and the date on which such change occurred.

(1) Unless a director otherwise elects to convert all of his or her annual retainers into RSU awards, annual retainers are paid in cash on a quarterly basis in arrears within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter. Two of ournon-executive directors elected to convert their annual retainers covering the period of service from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020 into RSU awards and accordingly, were granted an RSU award on July 26, 2019 under our 2017 equity plan for that number of 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 director for services to be rendered as anon-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) the10-trading day average closing sale price of a Share, as reported by Nasdaq, and as determined on the third trading day prior to the date of anticipated corporate approval of the award. The RSU award vests 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 director is a director of our company as of such date.

The table below sets forth: (a) the number of RSU awards granted to the director on July 26, 2019; (b) the total amount of annual retainers converted by such director into RSU awards, which amount is included in the “Fees earned or paid in cash” column for each director; (c) the grant date fair value of the stock awards computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718; and (d) any incremental grant date fair value for the stock awards above and beyond the amount of annual retainers converted into RSU awards computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718.

Ms. Weatherman		90,000		3,357		93,459		3,459

(2) On July 26, 2019, eachnon-executive director received an RSU award for 3,916 Shares granted under the 2017 equity plan. The RSU awards vest and the underlying shares become issuable on theone-year

180

anniversary of the grant date, so long as the director is a director of our company as of such date. In addition, as described above in note (1), each of Mr. Wallman and Ms. Weatherman elected to convert his or her annual retainers covering the period of service from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020 into RSU awards under our 2017 equity plan. The amount reported in the “Stock awards” column represents the aggregate grant date fair value for the July 26, 2019 RSU awards granted to each director in 2019 and for each of Mr. Wallman and Ms. Weatherman, the incremental grant date fair value for the additional RSU awards granted to him or her as described above in note (1), in each case as computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value for RSU awards is determined based on the closing sale price of our Shares on the grant date.

(3) As of December 29, 2019, eachnon-executive director held the following number of unvested stock awards (all of which are in the form of RSU awards): Mr. Blackford (3,916); Mr. Mackin (3,916); Mr. Miclot (3,916); Mr. O’Boyle (3,916); Ms. Paul (3,916); Mr. Stevens (3,916); Mr. Wallman (6,014); and Ms. Weatherman (6,434).

(4) On July 26, 2019, eachnon-executive director received a stock option to purchase 11,691 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $27.84 per share granted under the 2017 equity plan. Such option expires on July 26, 2029 and vests in full on July 26, 2020, so long as the individual remains a director of Wright as of such date. Amounts reported in the “Option awards” column represent the aggregate grant date fair value for option awards granted to each director in 2019 computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value is determined based on our Black-Scholes option pricing model. The grant date fair value per share for the options granted on July 26, 2019 was $9.34 and was determined using the following specific assumptions: risk free interest rate: 1.75%; expected life: 6.22 years; expected volatility: 30.50%; and expected dividend yield: 0.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Procedures Regarding Approval of Related Party Transactions

As provided in our audit committee charter, all related party transactions are to be reviewed andpre-approved by the audit committee. Related party transactions are transactions to which we were or are a participant and in which:

• the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

• a related person (including any director, director nominee, executive officer, holder of more than 5% of our ordinary shares or any member of their immediate family) had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

In determining whether to approve a related party transaction, the audit committee generally will evaluate the transaction in terms of (i) the benefits to Wright; (ii) the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director, an immediate family member of a director, or an entity in which a director is a partner, shareholder or executive officer; (iii) the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; (iv) the terms and conditions of the transaction; and (v) the terms available to unrelated third parties or to employees generally. The audit committee will then document its findings and conclusions in written minutes. In the event a transaction relates to a member of the audit committee, that member will not participate in the audit committee’s deliberations.

We are unaware of any related party transactions that have occurred since the beginning of our last fiscal year or any currently proposed related party transactions requiring disclosure in this proxy statement.

(i) Buyer shall (and Parent shall cause Buyer to) extend the Offer for the minimum period as required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC, the staff thereof, or Nasdaq, as applicable to the Offer;

(ii) if, at the then-scheduled Expiration Time, any of the Offer Conditions has not either been (A) satisfied or (B) waived by Buyer (to the extent such waiver is permitted under this Agreement or applicable Law), then Buyer shall (and Parent shall cause Buyer to) extend the Offer on one or more occasions in consecutive periods of up to ten (10) Business Days each (with each such period to end at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the last Business Day of such period) (or such other duration as may be agreed to by Buyer and the Company) in order to permit the satisfaction of such Offer Condition(s);provided, that if Buyer determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that at any then-scheduled Expiration Time, the Offer Condition set forth inparagraph 1(b) ofAnnex I is not reasonably likely to be satisfied within such ten (10) Business Day extension period, then Buyer may extend the Offer on such occasion for periods of up to twenty (20) Business Days;provided,further, that (x) Buyer shall not be required to, and shall not without the prior written consent of the Company, extend the Offer to a date later than the Outside Date (as the Outside Date may be extended pursuant toSection 6.2(b)) and (y) if the only remaining unsatisfied Offer Condition is the Minimum Tender Condition, Buyer shall not be required to extend the Offer on more than two (2) occasions in consecutive periods of up to ten (10) Business Days each (with each such period to end at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the last Business Day of such period) (or such other duration as may be agreed to by Buyer and the Company);

(iii) Buyer may extend the Offer to such other date and time as may be mutually agreed by Parent and the Company in writing; or

(iv) Buyer may extend the Offer to the Business Day immediately following the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the EGM or Subsequent EGM at which the Merger Resolutions are approved.

(f) Following the Acceptance Time, Buyer shall (and Parent shall cause Buyer to) (and the Offer Documents shall so indicate) provide a subsequent offering period (“Subsequent Offering Period”) in accordance with Rule14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act of not less than ten (10) Business Days (calculated in accordance with Rule14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act). In the event that prior to the expiration of the Subsequent Offering Period, Buyer or Parent has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of this Agreement, effectuate the Asset Sale, Buyer shall (and Parent shall cause Buyer to) (and the Offer Documents shall so indicate) extend the Subsequent Offering Period for at least five (5) Business Days to permit any remaining Minority Shareholders to tender their Shares in exchange for the Offer Consideration (such extension, the “Minority Exit Offering Period”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that promptly following the Expiration Time, Buyer or Parent has publicly announced its intention to, subject to the terms of this Agreement, effectuate the Mergers, Buyer shall not be required to provide a Subsequent Offering Period (or, for the avoidance of doubt, a Minority Exit Offering Period), but may do so if Buyer chooses.

(g) The Offer may not be terminated prior to the Initial Expiration Time or the then-scheduled Expiration Time (as the same may be extended pursuant toSection 2.1(e)) unless this Agreement is validly

A-17

terminated pursuant toArticle VI. If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant toArticle VI, Buyer shall (and Parent shall cause Buyer to) promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours following such valid termination) terminate the Offer and not acquire any Shares pursuant thereto. If the Offer is terminated in accordance with this Agreement by Parent prior to the acceptance for payment and payment for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, Buyer shall (and Parent shall cause Buyer to) as promptly as practicable, and in any event within three (3) Business Days of the termination, return, and shall cause any depositary acting on behalf of Buyer to return, in accordance with applicable Law, all tendered Shares to the registered holders thereof. Nothing in thisSection 2.1(g) shall affect any termination rights underArticle VI.

(h) As soon as practicable on the Offer Commencement Date, Parent and Buyer shall (i) file or cause to be filed with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments and supplements thereto and including exhibits thereto, the “Schedule TO”), which contains or incorporates by reference an offer to purchase and a related letter of transmittal and other appropriate ancillary offer documents required to be included therein (such Schedule TO and the documents included therein pursuant to which the Offer will be made, together with any amendments or supplements thereto and including exhibits thereto, the “Offer Documents”) and (ii) cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares to the extent required by applicable United States federal securities Laws and any other applicable Law. The Company shall furnish promptly to Parent and Buyer all information concerning the Company required by the Exchange Act and applicable Law, or as reasonably requested by Parent, to be set forth in the Offer Documents. Each of Parent and Buyer, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information has become (or has become known to be) false or misleading in any material respect. Parent and Buyer shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Schedule TO as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and the Offer Documents as so corrected to be disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case to the extent required by applicable United States federal securities Laws and any other applicable Law. Parent and Buyer shall give the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents each time before any such document is filed with the SEC, and Parent and Buyer shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes to such documents (and any amendments thereto) suggested thereto by the Company and its counsel. Parent and Buyer shall provide the Company and its counsel with (A) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that Parent and Buyer or their counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff or other Governmental Bodies with respect to the Schedule TO or the Offer Documents promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (B) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the responses of Parent and Buyer to those comments and to provide comments on those responses (and Parent and Buyer shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes to such responses suggested by the Company and its counsel), including by participating with Parent and Buyer or their counsel in any discussions or meetings with the SEC or other Governmental Bodies to the extent such participation is not prohibited by the SEC or other Governmental Bodies. The parties hereto agree that, notwithstanding the notice provisions of this Agreement, communications with respect to the Offer Documents, including communications related to any SEC comments, may be made on behalf of each party by email through their respective counsel.

(i) Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to Buyer on a timely basis the funds necessary to purchase any Shares that Buyer becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer.

The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Schedule14D-9 as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case to the extent required by applicable United States federal securities Laws and other applicable Law. Except to the extent any amendments relate to a Change of Board Recommendation or relate to a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, the Company shall give Parent, Buyer and their counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule14D-9 each time before it is filed with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes to such document (and any amendments thereto) suggested thereto by Parent, Buyer and their counsel. Except to the extent any comments or communications relate to a Change of Board Recommendation or a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, the Company shall provide Parent, Buyer and their counsel with (i) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that the Company or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff or other Governmental Bodies with respect to the Schedule14D-9 promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (ii) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the Company’s responses to those comments and to provide comments on those responses (and the Company shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes to such responses suggested by Parent, Buyer and their counsel), including by participating with the Company or its counsel in any discussions or meetings with the SEC or other Governmental Bodies to the extent such participation is not prohibited by the SEC or other Governmental Bodies. The parties hereto agree that, notwithstanding the notice provisions of this Agreement, communications with respect to the Schedule14D-9, including communications related to any SEC comments, may be made on behalf of each party by email through their respective counsel.

(a) The Company shall not, shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, and shall instruct (and use it reasonable best efforts to cause) its Representatives not to: (i) directly or indirectly initiate, solicit, or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of providing information) any inquiries, proposals or offers, or the making of any submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that, in each case, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) directly or indirectly engage in, enter into, or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (or its Representatives) making an Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer that, in each case, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) provide any information or afford access to the properties of the Company or its Subsidiaries to, or take any other action to knowingly assist or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any effort by any Person (other than Parent, Buyer or any Representatives of Parent or Buyer) in a manner that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or in connection with or in response to any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall instruct (and use it reasonable best efforts to cause) its Representatives to, (x) immediately cease any activities, solicitation, discussions or negotiations with any Person (or its Representatives) (other than Parent, Buyer or any Representatives of Parent or Buyer) with respect to any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (y) to the extent the Company has the right to do so, shall, within one (1) Business Day of the date of this Agreement, request the return or destruction of all confidential information provided by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries to any such Person (or its Representatives) and (z) terminate, within one (1) Business Day of the date of this Agreement, access to any such Person (or its Representatives) any physical or electronic data rooms relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal. Subject to the other provisions of thisSection 5.3, the Company and its Representatives may in any event inform a Person that has made an Acquisition Proposal about the provisions of this Section 5.3.

(b) NotwithstandingSection 5.3(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) the Company has received a written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach of thisSection 5.3 and (ii) the Company Board determines, in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to or result in a Superior Proposal, then the Company may (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with such Person and its Representatives regarding such Acquisition Proposal;provided that (x) the Company shall not, and shall instruct (and use it reasonable best efforts to cause) its Representatives not to, disclose anynon-public information to such Person (or its Representatives) unless the Company has, or first enters into, a confidentiality agreement with such Person with confidentiality provisions that, taken as a whole, are not less restrictive to the other Person than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and (y) the Company shall, substantially concurrently, and in any event within one (1) Business Day, provide or make available to Parent any information concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries provided or made available to such other Person (or any of its Representatives) that was not previously provided or made available to Parent and Buyer. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Representatives not to, release any Person from, or waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission under or fail to enforce, any standstill provision in any agreement to which the Company is a party;provided that, if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company may waive any such standstill provision to the extent necessary to permit the applicable Person (if such Person has not been

A-58

solicited in material breach of thisSection 5.3) to make, on a confidential basis to the Company Board, an Acquisition Proposal, conditioned upon such Person agreeing that the Company shall not be prohibited from providing any information to Parent (including regarding any such Acquisition Proposal) in accordance with, and otherwise complying with, thisSection 5.3.

(c) The Company shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof) notify Parent of (i) the receipt by the Company of an Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal or any requests for information, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued related to the foregoing and (ii) the terms and conditions of any Acquisition Proposal (including a copy of such Acquisition Proposal) and any such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a prompt basis (and, in any case, within one (1) Business Day of any significant development, discussions or negotiations) as to the status of such Acquisition Proposal or such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact, including by promptly (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day) (A) disclosing to Parent the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal or such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact and (B) providing to Parent complete, unredacted copies of any correspondence, proposals, indications of interest, and/or draft and final agreements (including schedules, exhibits and any other written materials related thereto (including any financing commitments received)) (and comments thereon) exchanged between the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of its or its Subsidiaries Representatives, on the one hand, and the Person (or any of its Representatives) making such Acquisition Proposal or such inquiry, proposal, offer, request or contact, on the other hand.

(d) Except as expressly provided in Section 5.3(e), the Company Board and each committee thereof shall not (i) approve or adopt, or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to (and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will) enter into or execute, any binding ornon-binding letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, option agreement, merger agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement relating to or that would reasonably be expected to lead to (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to inSection 5.3(b)) an Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) or publicly propose to take such action or (ii) make a Change of Board Recommendation.

(e) NotwithstandingSection 5.3(d) or any other provision of this Agreement, prior to the Acceptance Time:

(i) the Company may make a Change of Board Recommendation and terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement pursuant toSection 6.3(c) with respect to a Superior Proposal (so long as prior to or concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, such termination, the Company pays to Parent the termination fee payable pursuant toSection 6.5(b)) if: (A) the Company receives a written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach of thisSection 5.3, and the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor, constitutes a Superior Proposal; (B) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to take any such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; (C) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to terminate this Agreement to enter into such Alternative Acquisition Agreement and provided Parent a copy of the proposed definitive agreement (and related agreements); (D) the Company shall have negotiated, and shall have instructed (and shall have used it reasonable best efforts to cause) its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith, with Parent and its Representatives during the Notice Period, to the extent Parent requests to negotiate, to enable Parent to revise the terms of this Agreement in such a manner that would cause such Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and (E) no earlier than the end of the Notice Period, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel and financial advisor), after taking into consideration the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement that Parent has committed in writing to make during the Notice Period, that (x) the Acquisition Proposal that is subject of the Determination Notice continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and (y) that the failure to take any such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; and

A-59

(ii) other than in connection with or relating to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company Board may make a Change of Board Recommendation in response to an Intervening Event if (A) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to take any such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; (B) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to effect a Change of Board Recommendation (which notice shall reasonably specify the facts and circumstances providing the basis of the Intervening Event and for the Company Board’s determination to effect the Change of Board Recommendation); (C) the Company shall have negotiated, and shall have instructed (and shall have used it reasonable best efforts to cause) its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith, with Parent and its Representatives during the Notice Period, to the extent Parent requests to negotiate, to enable Parent to revise the terms of this Agreement in such a manner that would eliminate the need for taking such action; and (D) no earlier than the end of the Notice Period, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel), after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement that Parent has committed in writing to make during the Notice Period, that the failure to effect a Change of Board Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

The provisions of thisSection 5.3(e) apply to any change to the financial terms or any other material terms of any applicable Superior Proposal with respect to clause (i) and require a revised Determination Notice and a new Notice Period.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement prohibits the Company Board or a committee thereof from (i) taking and disclosing to the holders of Shares a position contemplated by Rule14e-2(a) and Rule14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure if the Company Board determines, in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to make such statement would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law;provided that (A) in no event shall thisSection 5.3(f) permit the Company Board or a committee thereof to make a Change of Board Recommendation except as otherwise expressly permitted pursuant toSection 5.3(e), (B) in no event shall thisSection 5.3(f) affect, modify or supplement the definition of Change of Board Recommendation (or to the consequences thereof in accordance with this Agreement) and (C) any such disclosure (other than issuance by the Company of a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) that does not expressly reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation shall be deemed to be a Change of Board Recommendation.

Section 5.4Employment and Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) Parent shall, and shall cause the Company and each of its other Subsidiaries to, maintain for each individual employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at the Closing (each, a “Current Employee”) for the period commencing at the Closing and ending on the earlier of (x) the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing and (y) the date on which the employment of a Current Employee terminates (i) each of base compensation and a target annual cash incentive compensation or bonus opportunity (but subject to applicable adjustments to performance goals following the Closing) at least as favorable as that provided to the Current Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) benefits that are at least as favorable in the aggregate to the benefits (excluding for such purposes any equity or equity-related awards, and any defined benefit pension benefits) maintained for and provided to the Current Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing and (iii) severance benefits that are at least as favorable as the severance benefits (excluding for such purposes any equity or equity-related severance benefit terms) provided by the Company to the Current Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing;provided, that in no event shall the compensation to be paid or benefits to be provided to a Current Employee pursuant to clauses (i) – (iii) be less than the amount required to be paid or benefits provided to such Current Employee under any severance, employment or similar agreement.

(b) Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company may pay to each Current Employee who is employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries at the time of such payments the following cash bonuses (i) at the time

A-60

such bonuses are typically paid, up to an amount due to such Current Employee under the Company’s annual bonus program assuming the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of “target” or actual performance in 2019, (ii) up to an amount due to such Current Employee under the Company’s annual bonus program assuming if the Acceptance Time occurs in 2020, the achievement of applicable performance metrics at “target” in 2020 with such amount beingpro-rated for the portion of the year prior to the Acceptance Time and (iii) up to an amount due to such Current Employee under the Company’s annual bonus program assuming if the Acceptance Time occurs in 2021, (A) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at the higher of “target” or actual performance in 2020, and (B) the achievement of applicable performance metrics at “target” in 2021 with such amount beingpro-rated for the portion of the year prior to the Acceptance Time;provided that in no event shall any cash bonus paid to a Current Employee for in the year in which the Acceptance Time occurs be less than the amount required to be paid to such Current Employee under any severance agreement.

(c) Parent shall, and shall cause the Company and each of its other Subsidiaries to, cause service rendered by Current Employees to the Company and its Subsidiaries, prior to the Closing to be taken into account for all purposes of eligibility, vesting, level of benefits (including vacation and severance, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan) and as required by law under all employee benefit plans of Parent, the Company and its other Subsidiaries (each, a “Buyer Plan”), to the same extent as such service was taken into account under the corresponding Company Plans immediately prior to the Closing;provided, that, the foregoing will not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall not, and shall cause the Company to not, subject Current Employees to any eligibility requirements, waiting periods,actively-at-work requirements orpre-existing condition limitations under any Buyer Plan for any condition for which they would have been entitled to coverage under the corresponding Company Plan in which they participated prior to the Closing. If Parent chooses to have the Current Employees commence participation in an applicable Buyer Plan other than on the first day of a plan year, Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to, or to cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide, credit under such employee benefit plans for any eligible expenses incurred by such Current Employees and their covered dependents under a Company Plan during the portion of the year prior to the Closing for purposes of satisfying allco-payments,co-insurance, deductibles, maximumout-of-pocket requirements, and otherout-of-pocket expenses or similar requirement under any such plans applicable to such Current Employees and their covered dependents in respect of the plan year in which the Closing occurs;provided,however, that Parent’s obligations under this sentence shall be subject to its receipt of, using reasonable best efforts to obtain, all necessary information, from either the Company or the Current Employee, related to such amounts paid by such Current Employee.

(d) If directed in writing by Parent at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall terminate, effective as of at least one (1) day prior to the Closing Date, any and all Company Plans intended to include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement (each, a “Company 401(k) Plan”). If so directed, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Parent with evidence that the Company has taken action to terminate each Company 401(k) Plan (effective as of no later than one (1) day prior to the Closing Date) pursuant to resolutions of the Company Board. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e) Without limiting the generality ofSection 7.5, no provision of this Agreement (i) prohibits Parent or the Company from amending or terminating any individual Company Plan or any other employee benefit plan in accordance with its terms and applicable Law, (ii) requires Parent or the Company to keep any Person employed for any period of time, or (iii) constitutes the establishment or adoption of, or amendment to, any Company Plan or employee benefit plan. No Current Employee or any other individual employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries has any third-party beneficiary or other rights with respect to thisSection 5.4.

A-61

Section 5.5Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Parent and Buyer agree that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities, including advancement of expenses, for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing now existing in favor of the present (as of the Closing) or former directors or officers of the Company (each, together with such Person’s heirs, executors, or administrators, an “Indemnified Party”) as provided in the Company Organizational Documents shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect. For a period of six (6) years from the Closing, the Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Company to, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of the Company Organizational Documents as in effect immediately prior to the Closing solely with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any present (as of the Closing) or former director or officer of the Company;provided,however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any action pending or asserted or any claim made for indemnification within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim. From and after the Closing, Parent shall guarantee and stand surety for, and shall cause the Company to honor, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in thisSection 5.5.

(b) Without limiting any additional rights that any Person may have under any agreement or applicable Law, Parent and Buyer shall, jointly and severally, from and after the Closing, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and each Indemnified Party against any liability for or on account of Tax in connection with a Post-Offer Reorganization, including all obligations to pay a judgment, settlement, or penalty and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any Action in relation thereto;provided that, any such indemnity of an Indemnified Party shall be limited to Taxes incurred by such Indemnified Party in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company and not as a holder of any of the Shares or other equity of the Company.

(c) The Company may purchase prior to the Closing, and if the Company does not purchase prior to the Closing, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Company to purchase at or after the Closing, a tail policy under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained at such time by the Company in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing, which tail policy (i) will be effective for a period from the Closing through and including the date six (6) years after the Closing with respect to claims arising from facts or events that existed or occurred prior to or at the Closing and (ii) will contain coverage that is at least as protective to such directors and officers as the coverage provided by such existing policies;provided, that, the premium for such tail policy may not be (and Parent shall not be required to cause the Company to expend) in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the last annual premium paid prior to the Closing. Parent shall cause any such policy to be maintained in full force and effect for their full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Company.

(d) Without limiting any of the rights or obligations under thisSection 5.5, for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Parent shall cause the Company to keep in full force and effect, and comply with the terms and conditions of, (solely with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing) any agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement between or among the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any Indemnified Party providing for the indemnification of such Indemnified Party that has been made available to Parent.

(e) ThisSection 5.5 will survive the consummation of the Transactions and is intended to benefit, and after the Closing is enforceable by, any Person or entity referred to in thisSection 5.5. The indemnification and advancement provided for in thisSection 5.5 is not exclusive of any other rights to which the Indemnified Party is entitled whether pursuant to Law, Contract, or otherwise. If Parent, Buyer, the Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (other than pursuant to the Transactions) (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity resulting from such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent or Buyer, as applicable, shall make proper provisions such that such successors or assigns assume the applicable obligations set forth in thisSection 5.5.

A-62

Section 5.6Further Action; Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, prior to the Closing, each party shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper, or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate the Offer by or before the Outside Date. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree to, (i) in cooperation and consultation with each other, make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act and all other filings required pursuant to applicable foreign Antitrust Laws with respect to the Transactions as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event prior to the expiration of any applicable legal deadline (provided that the filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act must be made within ten (10) Business Days after the date of the Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and Parent in writing) and (ii) to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested (including pursuant to a second or similar request) pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law. Parent shall, with the reasonable cooperation of the Company, be responsible for making any filing or notification, or draft filing as may be the case, required or advisable under foreign Antitrust Laws as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and Parent in writing. The parties shall also consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with, and provide to the other parties in advance, any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by, or on behalf of, such party in connection with proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust Laws;provided,however, that Parent shall have the right to devise, control and direct the strategy and timing for, and making of all material decisions relating to (and shall take the lead in all meetings and communications with any Governmental Body relating to), obtaining any Consent of a Governmental Body contemplated by thisSection 5.6, including resolving any Action related to any such Consent;provided, further, however, in devising, controlling and directing the strategy and timing for, and making of all material decisions relating to obtaining any Consent of a Governmental Body contemplated by thisSection 5.6 Parent must at all times use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Offer by or before the Outside Date. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties hereto agree (A) to furnish to the other such information and assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with obtaining any Consent or any Action under or relating to Antitrust Laws or otherwise relating to or to facilitate a Remedy, (B) to give each other reasonable advance notice of all meetings with any Governmental Body relating to any Antitrust Laws or otherwise relating to or to facilitate a Remedy, (C) to give each other an opportunity to participate in each of such meetings, (D) to the extent practicable, to give each other reasonable advance notice of all substantive oral communications with any Governmental Body relating to any Antitrust Laws, (E) if any Governmental Body initiates a substantive oral communication regarding any Antitrust Laws, to promptly notify the other party of the substance of such communication, (F) to provide each other with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon all substantive written communications (including any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals) with a Governmental Body regarding any Antitrust Laws and (G) to provide each other with copies of all substantive written communications to or from any Governmental Body relating to any Antitrust Laws. Any such disclosures or provision of copies by one party to the other may be made on an outside counsel basis, if appropriate. Parent shall pay all filing fees in connection with any filings that may be required by thisSection 5.6(a).

(b) In furtherance of, and without limiting the efforts referenced inSection 5.6(a), Parent shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take any and all actions necessary to obtain any consents, clearances or approvals required under or in connection with the HSR Act, the Sherman Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, the EU Merger Regulation and any other federal, state or foreign law, regulation, or decree designed to prohibit, restrict, or regulate actions for the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade or significant impediment of effective competition (collectively “Antitrust Laws”) to enable all waiting periods under applicable Antitrust Laws to expire, and to avoid or eliminate impediments under applicable Antitrust Laws asserted by any Governmental Body, in each case, to cause the Offer to be consummated prior to the Outside Date, including if necessary to obtain clearance by any Governmental Body before the Outside Date, offering, negotiating, committing to, and effecting, by consent

A-63

To assist Parent in complying with its obligations set forth in thisSection 5.6, the Company shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) enter into one or more agreements requested by Parent to be entered into by any of them prior to the Closing with respect to a Remedy. Without Parent’s prior written consent, the Company shall not (and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to) take or cause to be taken, do or cause to be done, offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy. For the avoidance of doubt, no party hereto (or their respective Subsidiaries) shall be required pursuant to thisSection 5.6 to offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy that is not conditioned upon the Closing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) Parent’s obligation to (and to cause its Subsidiaries (including for this purpose, the Company and its Subsidiaries) to) offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy or Remedies shall be limited to (a) total ankle replacement products and services and (b) other products and services that represented, individually or in the aggregate, less than $25,000,000 of annual revenue generated during the 2018 fiscal year, and (ii) Parent shall not be required to (or to cause its Subsidiaries (including for this purpose, the Company and its Subsidiaries) to) offer, negotiate, commit to or effect any Remedy or Remedies other than those required pursuant to clause (i).

(c) Without limiting the obligations in clauses (a) and (b) of thisSection 5.6, including Parent’s right to devise, direct and control the strategy relating to such actions or proceedings, in the event that any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Body challenging any Transaction, each of Parent, Buyer and the Company shall cooperate in all respects with each other and shall use its reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction, decision or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions.

(d) Prior to the Acceptance Time, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents, approvals or waivers of third parties with respect to any Contracts to which it (or any Subsidiary of the Company) is a party as may be necessary for the consummation of the Transactions or required by the terms of any Contract as a result of the execution, performance or consummation of the Transactions;provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except in order to effect a Remedy in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in no event will Parent, Buyer or the Company be required to pay or make or commit to pay or make (and without the prior written consent of Parent, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall pay or make or commit to pay or make), prior to the Closing, any fee, penalty or other consideration or any other accommodation to any third party to obtain any consent, approval or waiver required with respect to any such Contract.

(e) Each of the parties agrees that, between the date of this Agreement and the earlier of the Closing and the termination of this Agreement in accordance withArticle VI, it will not, and will ensure that none of their respective Subsidiaries will, consummate, or enter into any agreement providing for, any investment, acquisition or other business combination that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Transactions.

Section 5.7Public Announcements. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to not, and Parent shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, issue any press release, announcement or other public statement concerning the Agreement or the Transactions without the prior consent of the other (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), except any release or announcement required by applicable Law or any rule or regulation of Nasdaq, the New York Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange to which the relevant party is subject, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow each other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance; it being understood that the final form and content of any such release or announcement, to the extent so required, shall be at the final discretion of the disclosing

A-64

party. The restrictions of thisSection 5.7 do not apply to communications by the Company or Parent in connection with a Change of Board Recommendation.

Section 5.8Approval of Compensation Actions. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Compensation Committee of the Company Board shall take all such actions as may be required to approve, as an employment compensation, severance, or other employee benefit arrangement in accordance with Rule14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act and the instructions thereto, any and all Compensation Actions taken after January 1 of the current fiscal year and prior to the Acceptance Time that have not already been so approved. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Compensation Action” means any (a) granting by the Company or its Subsidiaries to any present or former director or officer of any increase in compensation or benefits or of the right to receive any severance or termination compensation or benefit; (b) entry by the Company or its Subsidiaries into any employment, consulting, indemnification, termination, change of control,non-competition, or severance agreement with any present or former director or officer, or any approval, amendment, or modification of any such agreement; or (c) approval of, amendment to, or adoption of any Company Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in thisSection 5.8 shall permit the Company to take any action that would be prohibited under any other provision of this Agreement, includingSection 5.1.

Section 5.9Treatment of Certain Indebtedness.

(a) The Company shall provide written notice of the anticipated effective date of the Closing to holders of the Convertible Notes, the Trustee, and the paying agent and conversion agent identified in the Indentures within three (3) Business Days after the date of this Agreement and in accordance with Section 14.01(b)(iii) of each of the Indentures. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall not make any change to the terms of the Indentures relating to the Convertible Notes without the prior written consent of Parent. In addition, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall take all actions as may be required in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Indentures including, without limitation, delivery, issuance or entry into, as applicable, of any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, legal opinions, officers’ certificates or other documents or instruments required to comply with the Indentures. The Company shall provide Parent and its counsel reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any notices, certificates, press releases, supplemental indentures, legal opinions, officers’ certificates, and written or verbal responses to any inquiries from holders of the Convertible Notes or other documents or instruments deliverable pursuant to or in connection with the Indentures prior to the dispatch or making thereof, and the Company shall promptly respond to any questions from, and shall reflect any reasonable comments made by, Parent or its counsel with respect thereto prior to the dispatch or making thereof.

(b) At the Closing, the Company shall take all necessary action to perform and comply with all obligations of the Company pursuant to the Indentures within the time periods required by the terms of the Indentures;provided that any opinions of counsel required by the Indentures, or as may be required by the Trustee pursuant to the Indentures, shall be delivered by the Company and its counsel to the extent required to be delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Promptly following the Closing (and in any event no later than five Business Days following the Closing), the Company shall issue one or more press releases (and make such press releases available on the Company’s website) announcing the date of the Closing, providing notice of the occurrence of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change (as defined in the Indentures) and detailing any adjustment to the Conversion Rate (as defined in the 2020 Indenture and the 2021 Indenture) or Exchange Rate (as defined in the 2023 Indenture), as applicable, and other relevant information.

Section 7.12Specific Performance.

(a) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement, irreparable harm would occur that monetary damages could not make whole.

ANNEX B

Guggenheim Securities, LLC 330 Madison Avenue New York, New York 10017 GuggenheimPartners.com

November 3, 2019

The Board of Directors

Wright Medical Group N.V.

1023 Cherry Road

Memphis, TN 38117

Members of the Board:

We understand that Wright Medical Group N.V. (“Wright Medical”), Stryker Corporation (“Stryker”) and Stryker B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Stryker (“Buyer”), intend to enter into a Purchase Agreement to be dated as of November 3, 2019 (together with the forms of Asset Sale Agreement and Merger Agreement attached thereto, the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Buyer shall effect a tender offer (as it may be amended from time to time pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the “Offer”) to purchase (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) any and all of the outstanding ordinary shares, par value €0.03 per share, of Wright Medical (each a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”) at a price of US$30.75 per Share in cash, without interest (the “Offer Consideration”).

We further understand that, in order to facilitate Stryker’s and Buyer’s purchase or acquisition of any Shares not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer (including during any Subsequent Offering Period and any Minority Exit Offering Period) or not otherwise held by Stryker, Buyer or any of their affiliates, the Purchase Agreement contemplates that Stryker, Wright Medical, Buyer and their respective subsidiaries (as applicable) may effectuate or cause to be effectuated one or more Post-Offer Reorganizations (any such Post-Offer Reorganization, collectively with the Offer and any Compulsory Acquisition as an integrated transaction, the “Transaction”). More specifically, the Purchase Agreement contemplates that the Post-Offer Reorganization may be completed via the Asset Sale, the Liquidation, the Second Step Distribution or the Mergers, in each case which would result in each Minority Shareholder being offered or receiving in such Post-Offer Reorganization, in exchange for each Share then held by such Minority Shareholder, an amount in cash equal to the Offer Consideration (without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes). Alternatively, depending on the conditions precedent and the circumstances specified in the Purchase Agreement, the Post-Offer Reorganization may entail a Compulsory Acquisition in accordance with the Dutch Civil Code or another transaction which may result in each Minority Shareholder being offered or receiving in such Post-Offer Reorganization, in exchange for each Share then held by such Minority Shareholder, consideration that may differ from the Offer Consideration (which in the case of a Compulsory Acquisition will be determined by the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeals).

The terms and conditions of the Transaction are more fully set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them therein.

You have asked us to render our opinion as to whether the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (excluding Stryker, Buyer or any of their affiliates) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (other than in the case of any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration) is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

In the course of performing our reviews and analyses for rendering our opinion, we have:

• Reviewed a draft of the Purchase Agreement dated as of November 3, 2019;

• Reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information regarding Wright Medical;

The Board of Directors

Wright Medical Group N.V.

November 3, 2019

Page 2

• Reviewed certainnon-public business and financial information regarding Wright Medical’s business and future prospects (including certain financial projections for Wright Medical for the years ending December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2024 (the “Financial Projections”)), all as prepared and approved for our use by Wright Medical’s senior management;

• Discussed with Wright Medical’s senior management their strategic and financial rationale for the Transaction as well as their views of Wright Medical’s business, operations, historical and projected financial results and future prospects and the commercial, competitive and regulatory dynamics in the medical device sector;

• Reviewed the historical prices, trading multiples and trading activity of the Shares;

• Compared the financial performance of Wright Medical and the trading multiples and trading activity of the Shares with corresponding data for certain other publicly traded companies that we deemed relevant in evaluating Wright Medical;

• Reviewed the valuation and financial metrics of certain mergers and acquisitions that we deemed relevant in evaluating the Transaction;

• Performed discounted cash flow analyses based on the Financial Projections; and

• Conducted such other studies, analyses, inquiries and investigations as we deemed appropriate.

With respect to the information used in arriving at our opinion:

• We have relied upon and assumed the accuracy, completeness and reasonableness of all industry, business, financial, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, actuarial and other information (including, without limitation, the Financial Projections, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information) provided by or discussed with Wright Medical or obtained from public sources, data suppliers and other third parties.

• We (i) do not assume any responsibility, obligation or liability for the accuracy, completeness, reasonableness, achievability or independent verification of, and we have not independently verified, any such information (including, without limitation, the Financial Projections, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information), (ii) express no view, opinion, representation, guaranty or warranty (in each case, express or implied) regarding the reasonableness or achievability of the Financial Projections, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information or the assumptions upon which they are based and (iii) have relied upon the assurances of Wright Medical’s senior management that they are unaware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information (including, without limitation, the Financial Projections, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information) incomplete, inaccurate or misleading.

• Specifically, with respect to (i) the Financial Projections, any other estimates and any other forward-looking information provided by or discussed with Wright Medical, (a) we have been advised by Wright Medical’s senior management, and we have assumed, that the Financial Projections, such other estimates and such other forward-looking information utilized in our analyses have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of Wright Medical’s senior management as to the expected future performance of Wright Medical and (b) we have assumed that the Financial Projections, such other estimates and such other forward-looking information have been reviewed by Wright Medical’s Board of Directors with the understanding that such information will be used and relied upon by us in connection with rendering our opinion and (ii) any financial projections, any other estimates and/or any other forward-looking information obtained by us from public sources, data suppliers and other third parties, we have assumed that such information is reasonable and reliable.

During the course of our engagement, we were asked by Wright Medical’s Board of Directors to solicit indications of interest from various third parties regarding a potential transaction with Wright Medical, and we have considered the results of such solicitation process in rendering our opinion.

In arriving at our opinion, we have not performed or obtained any independent appraisal of the assets or liabilities (including any contingent, derivative oroff-balance sheet assets and liabilities) of Wright Medical or any other entity or the solvency or fair value of Wright Medical or any other entity, nor have we been furnished with any such appraisals. We are not legal, regulatory, tax, consulting, accounting, appraisal or actuarial experts and nothing in our opinion should be construed as constituting advice with respect to such matters; accordingly, we have relied on the assessments of Wright Medical’s senior management and Wright Medical’s other professional advisors with respect to such matters. We have assumed that the Transaction will have the tax consequences contemplated by the parties to the Purchase Agreement and that any changes to the tax consequences (including any tax basisstep-up or other such changes) would not have a meaningful impact on our analyses and opinion. We are not expressing any view or rendering any opinion regarding the tax consequences of the Transaction to Wright Medical or its securityholders (including with respect to any withholding taxes associated with the Transaction, any tax basisstep-up or other such changes to the tax attributes of Wright Medical which may result from the Transaction).

In rendering our opinion, we have assumed that, in all respects meaningful to our analyses, (i) the final executed Purchase Agreement will not differ from the draft that we have reviewed, (ii) Wright Medical, Stryker and Buyer will comply with all terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement, (iii) the representations and warranties of Wright Medical, Stryker and Buyer contained in the Purchase Agreement are true and correct and all conditions to the obligations of each party to the Purchase Agreement to consummate the Transaction will be satisfied without any waiver, amendment or modification thereof and (iv) the execution versions of the exhibits to the Purchase Agreement (including the Asset Sale Agreement and the Merger Agreement) will not differ in any material respects from the exhibits attached to the Purchase Agreement. We also have assumed that (i) the Transaction will be consummated in a timely manner in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and in compliance with all applicable laws, documents and other requirements, without any delays, limitations, restrictions, conditions, divestiture or other requirements, waivers, amendments or modifications (regulatory,tax-related or otherwise) that would have an effect on Wright Medical, Stryker, Buyer or the Transaction in any way meaningful to our analyses or opinion and (ii) any Post-Offer Reorganization will not result in any changes to the Offer Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares or adversely impact Wright Medical or Stryker, in each case in any way meaningful to our analyses or opinion.

In rendering our opinion, we do not express any view or opinion as to the price or range of prices at which the Shares or other securities or financial instruments of or relating to Wright Medical may trade or otherwise be transferable at any time, including subsequent to the announcement or consummation of the Transaction.

We have acted as a financial advisor to Wright Medical in connection with the Transaction and will receive a customary fee for such services, a substantial portion of which is payable upon successful consummation of the Transaction and a portion of which is payable upon the rendering of our opinion and will be credited against the fee payable upon consummation of the Transaction. In addition, Wright Medical has agreed to reimburse us for certain expenses and to indemnify us against certain liabilities arising out of our engagement.

Aside from our current engagement by Wright Medical, during the past two years, Guggenheim Securities, LLC (“Guggenheim Securities”) has not previously been engaged by Wright Medical to provide financial advisory or other investment banking services for which we received compensation. During the past two years, Guggenheim Securities has not been engaged by Stryker to provide financial advisory or other investment banking services for which we have received compensation, except in connection with Stryker’s acquisition of Entellus Medical, Inc.

in February 2018, for which services Guggenheim Securities received customary fees. Guggenheim Securities may seek to provide Wright Medical and Stryker and their respective affiliates with financial advisory and investment banking services unrelated to the Transaction in the future, for which services Guggenheim Securities would expect to receive compensation.

Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities engage in a wide range of financial services activities for our and their own accounts and the accounts of customers, including but not limited to: asset, investment and wealth management; insurance services; investment banking, corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions and restructuring; merchant banking; fixed income and equity sales, trading and research; and derivatives, foreign exchange and futures. In the ordinary course of these activities, Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities may (i) provide such financial services to Wright Medical, Stryker, Buyer, other participants in the Transaction and their respective affiliates, for which services Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities may have received, and may in the future receive, compensation and (ii) directly and indirectly hold long and short positions, trade and otherwise conduct such activities in or with respect to loans, debt and equity securities and derivative products of or relating to Wright Medical, Stryker, Buyer, other participants in the Transaction and their respective affiliates. Furthermore, Guggenheim Securities and its affiliates and related entities and our or their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants and agents may have investments in Wright Medical, Stryker, Buyer, other participants in the Transaction and their respective affiliates.

Consistent with applicable legal and regulatory guidelines, Guggenheim Securities has adopted certain policies and procedures to establish and maintain the independence of its research departments and personnel. As a result, Guggenheim Securities’ research analysts may hold views, make statements or investment recommendations and publish research reports with respect to Wright Medical, Stryker, Buyer, other participants in the Transaction and their respective affiliates and the Transaction that differ from the views of Guggenheim Securities’ investment banking personnel.

Our opinion has been provided to Wright Medical’s Board of Directors (in its capacity as such) for its information and assistance in connection with its evaluation of the Offer Consideration. Our opinion may not be disclosed publicly, made available to third parties or reproduced, disseminated, quoted from or referred to at any time, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent;provided,however, that this letter may be included in its entirety in any Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule14D-9, any proxy statement, any shareholder circular or any other such disclosure document to be distributed to the holders of Shares in connection with the Transaction (other than in any proxy statement, shareholder circular or other disclosure document with respect to any Compulsory Acquisition or any other Post-Offer Reorganization resulting in payments other than the Offer Consideration).
