Xxxxxxx, XX 00000

Dear Pascal:

The purpose of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”) is to summarize certain terms regarding your future employment with Xxxxxx Medical Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the “Company”) upon completion of the merger (the “Merger”) between Xxxxxx Medical Group, Inc. (“WMG”) and Tornier N.V. For the avoidance of doubt, the term the “Company” as used herein includes Xxxxxx Medical Group N.V. upon completion of the Merger, which at such time will be formerly known as Tornier N.V.

This Agreement is intended to confirm that your employment will terminate, pursuant to your resignation from employment, in connection with a “change in control” as contemplated by the terms of that certain Separation Pay Agreement dated as of November 29, 2012 between Xxxxxx Medical Technology, Inc. (“WMT”) and you (the “Separation Pay Agreement”). Further, this Agreement is intended to amend the Separation Pay Agreement and, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree that the Separation Pay Agreement will remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. This Agreement, together with the Separation Pay Agreement, sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and all prior oral discussions and writings are merged into this Agreement and the Separation Pay Agreement.

1. Resignation from All Board and Officer Positions as of Effective Time of Merger. You agree to and hereby resign from all director and officer positions with WMG, WMT and any and all other subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company, effective as of the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”). In furtherance of the foregoing, upon the request of the Company, you agree to execute and deliver to the Company any resignations or corporate, governmental or other documents necessary to effect your resignation as a director and/or officer of WMG, WMT and any and all other subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company; provided, however, that any such request of you in furtherance of the foregoing will be reasonable.

2. Resignation from Employment; At-Will Employment Prior to Resignation Date; Entitlement to Severance Pay and Benefits and Other Payments. You agree to and hereby resign as an employee of the Company, including any and all other subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company, effective as of the close of business on December 1, 2015 or such earlier date as agreed upon by the Company and you (the “Resignation Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement constitutes a promise by the Company or you of your continued employment by the Company, and your employment with the Company is and will remain “at-will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment relationship with the Company at any time for any reason. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, if you accept full-time employment with another employer prior to the Resignation Date as described above, the “Resignation Date” as used in this Agreement shall mean such earlier date on which you began such full-time employment and your employment with the Company will be deemed terminated as of such earlier date. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, if your employment is otherwise terminated for any reason prior to the Resignation Date as described above, the “Resignation Date” as used in this Agreement shall mean such earlier date on which your employment with the Company terminated. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement understand, acknowledge and agree that regardless of the reason, if any, of the termination of your employment on or prior to December 1, 2015, you will be entitled to the severance pay and benefits under Section 6 of the Separation Pay Agreement.

3. Continuing Benefits as Employee Prior to Resignation Date. After the Effective Time and prior to the Resignation Date, you will remain an employee of the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, through the Resignation Date and continue to: (1) receive your base salary as in effect as of the Effective Time, payable in accordance with the customary payroll practices of the Company as the same exists from time to time; (2) be eligible to participate in health insurance, retirement, disability and other benefit programs provided to officers of the Company on terms no less favorable than those available to officers of the Company; (3) be entitled to the same number of vacation days, holidays, sick days and other benefits as are generally allowed to officers of the Company in accordance with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time; and (4) be authorized to incur reasonable expenses in the discharge of your services as an employee of the Company, in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy, as the same may be modified by the Company from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that you will not receive any annual or other equity awards after the Effective Time and prior to the Resignation Date or otherwise. After the Effective Time and prior to the Resignation Date, you are not expected to maintain regular office hours in the Memphis, Tennessee office or any other office of the Company, but may perform your duties and responsibilities from your home, and will be available to Xxx Xxxxxxxxx on an as needed basis.

4. Continuing Obligations as Employee Prior to and After Resignation Date. You hereby understand, acknowledge and agree that after the Effective Time and prior to the Resignation Date, you will continue to remain subject to and bound by the confidentiality, assignment of inventions, non-solicitation, non-interference and non-competition, and other obligations under the Separation Pay Agreement, which obligations will remain in full force and effect, and will survive your resignation from employment as provided therein. You also hereby

understand, acknowledge and agree that after the Resignation Date, you will continue to remain subject to and bound by the terms of all prior agreements which you have entered into with the Company, including without limitation the Separation Pay Agreement, and all policies and procedures of the Company applicable to you and which by their terms extend beyond the Resignation Date.

5. Payment of Post-Change in Control Severance. Notwithstanding the terms of the Separation Pay Agreement, the Company agrees to pay you the severance payment provided under Section 6.1 of the Separation Pay Agreement in the following manner subject to the Company’s receipt by December 2, 2015 of a release in the form of the release attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement that has been executed by you after your Resignation Date and that has not been revoked within the rescission period described in such release: (a) half in lump sum payable within a reasonable period of time after the Resignation Date; and (b) the remaining payment on or prior to December 31, 2015. Notwithstanding the terms of the Separation Pay Agreement, the amount specified in clause (v) of Section 6.2.1 of the Separation Pay Agreement shall be equal to your actual annual incentive payout for the first half of 2015 and your prorated annual incentive payment at target for the second half of 2015, in each case pursuant to the terms of Xxxxxx’x annual incentive plan for 2015, and for clarity, no amount shall be paid with respect to clause (ii) of Section 6.2.1 of the Separation Pay Agreement.

6. Stock Options. The Company agrees to amend the agreements evidencing your outstanding options to purchase WMG common stock (which options will convert into options to purchase ordinary shares of Xxxxxx Medical Group N.V. in connection with the Merger) prior to the Effective Time to extend the post-termination exercise period of your options from 90 days to the respective expiration dates of the options.

7. Consulting Agreement. If, as of the Resignation Date, you have not accepted full-time employment or full-time engagement as an independent contractor of another company or organization or if, as of the Resignation Date you have not otherwise engaged in your own business on a full-time basis, the Company agrees to engage you as an independent consultant pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”). It is anticipated that the monthly level of bona fide services that you will perform for or on behalf of the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates following the Resignation Date pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement will be less than twenty percent (20%) of the average monthly level of bona fide services performed by you over the thirty-six (36) month period immediately preceding the Resignation Date and execution of the Consulting Agreement.

8. Non-Disparagement. You agree that you will make no defamatory, disparaging, critical, derogatory or negative oral or written comments regarding the Company, or its products or services. The Company agrees that with the exception of necessary internal high-level comments related to company business which will remain confidential within the Company, neither the Company nor any of its parent companies, subsidiaries or affiliates (specifically by and/or through senior-level management personnel and Board members) will make any defamatory, disparaging, critical, derogatory or negative oral or written comments regarding you.

9. At-Will Employment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Separation Pay Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement or the Separation Pay Agreement constitutes a promise of continued employment of you by the Company. Your employment with the Company is and will remain “at-will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason.

10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Separation Pay Agreement, the Release attached as Exhibit A and the Consulting Agreement attached as Exhibit B, is the entire agreement between you and the Company relating to your employment and your resignation from employment, and your right to any severance pay and benefits. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, this Agreement supersedes all prior oral and written agreements and communications between the parties hereto. This Agreement will not be modified, amended or terminated, except by a written agreement manually signed by both parties hereto.

11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

The continuing obligations of Consultant under this Agreement with respect to Confidential Information will survive indefinitely after the termination date of this Agreement.

10.

Independent Contractor/No Agency. Nothing in this Agreement may be construed to establish Xxxxxx as an employer and Consultant as an employee, to establish either party hereto as a partner or agent of the other party, or to create any other form of legal association that would impose liability upon a party for any act or omission of the other party or provide a party with the right, power, or authority to create or impose any duty or obligation on the other party, it being intended that each party hereto will remain an independent contractor acting in its own name and for its own account.

11.

Third-Party Confidential Information. Consultant understands that Xxxxxx does not desire to receive any confidential information in breach of the Consultant’s obligation to others and agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Consultant will not disclose to Xxxxxx or use in the performance of services for Xxxxxx, any confidential information in breach of the obligations to any third party.

12.

13.

No Commitment. It is understood that this Agreement does not obligate Xxxxxx to request proposals, bids or estimates from or to enter into contracts or place orders with Consultant, and does not constitute all of the conditions or terms of a contract, request, or order from Xxxxxx to Consultant. Further conditions and terms of any such contract, request or order will be agreed upon between Parties from time to time.

14.

No Reverse Engineering. Except as expressly provided herein, Consultant will not (A) reverse engineer or analyze samples furnished by Xxxxxx; (B) create derivatives of such samples for commercial purposes; or (C) file any patent application containing a claim to any subject matter derived from the Confidential Information, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx.

15.

Return of Confidential Information. At any time upon Xxxxxx’x request, or upon the termination of this Agreement, all records and any compositions, articles, devices, Inventions and other items which disclose or embody Confidential Information (and all copies thereof) will be promptly returned to Xxxxxx and not retained by Consultant or Consultant representatives in any form.

16.

Injunctive Relief. Consultant also agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach, Xxxxxx will be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance without posting a bond. Such relief will not be exclusive of Xxxxxx, but will be in addition to all other remedies. In the event disclosure is legally compelled, Consultant will provide Xxxxxx with prompt written notice so that Xxxxxx can seek appropriate protections and remedies.

17.

Disclaimer. Xxxxxx provides Confidential Information disclosed hereunder on an “AS IS” basis, without warranties of any kind.

The provisions of this Agreement will be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee (without giving effect to the choice of law principles thereof). Xxxxxx and Consultant each hereby (A) agrees that any action, cause of action, claim, or dispute arising under or relating to this Agreement must be brought only in the courts of the State of Tennessee, located in the County of Shelby, or the federal court of the United States located in the Western District of Tennessee; (B) expressly consents to personal jurisdiction in the State of Tennessee, with respect to such action, cause of action, claim, or dispute; (C) irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts for the purposes of enforcing the terms of this Agreement or interpreting any provision, remedying any breach, or otherwise adjudicating any action, cause of action, claim, or dispute of or under this Agreement; (D) irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the jurisdiction and venue required in this Section 18; and (E) agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, cause of action, claim, or dispute has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Consultant hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of State of the State of Tennessee as his agent for service of any process, summons or other document related to initiating any action hereunder to enforce the rights of Xxxxxx.

19.

Miscellaneous. No amendment to this Agreement will be binding upon the Parties unless it is in writing and executed by both Parties. The failure of either Party at any time to require performance of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of such provision or such right. All waivers must be in writing. Unless the written waiver contains an express statement to the contrary, no waiver by either Party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement or of any right provided for herein will be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any right under this Agreement. All remedies provided for in this Agreement will be cumulative and in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to either Party at law, in equity or otherwise. This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous communications, negotiations and agreements, whether oral or written, between the parties with respect to such subject matter. If any provision or clause of this Agreement, or the application thereof under certain circumstances is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision or clause under other circumstances, will not be affected thereby.

20.	Export Control. Consultant agrees not to export, directly or indirectly, any U.S. source technical data acquired from Xxxxxx or any products utilizing such data to countries outside the United States, which export may be in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.
