CREDIT AGREEMENT This CREDIT AGREEMENT (" Agreement" ) is entered into as of September 25, 2007, among BIOMET, INC., an Indiana corporation (the " Parent Borrower" ), the Subsidiary Borrowers party hereto, LVB ACQUISITION, INC., a Delaware corporation (" Holdings" ), BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, and each lender from time to time party hereto (collectively, the " Lenders" and individually, a " Lender" ).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement (as this and other capitalized terms used in these preliminary statements are defined in Section 1.01 below), LVB Acquisition Merger Sub, Inc. (" Merger Sub" ), an Indiana corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, consummated an offer to purchase (together with any extensions and/or subsequent offering periods, the " Offer" ) all outstanding shares of common stock, without par value of the Parent Borrower, at an offer price of $46.00 per share. Following the consummation of the Offer and substantially simultaneously with the initial Borrowings under the CF Facilities, Merger Sub will merge (the " Merger" ) with and into the Parent Borrower, with (i) subject to dissenters' rights, the Merger Consideration being paid, and (ii) the Parent Borrower surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings.

The Borrowers have requested that the Lenders extend credit to the Borrowers in the form of a Revolving Credit Facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000. The Revolving Credit Facility may include one or more Letters of Credit from time to time and one or more Swing Line Loans from time to time.

The proceeds of the Initial Revolving Borrowing (to the extent permitted in accordance with the definition of the term " Permitted Initial Revolving Borrowing Purposes" ), if any, together with (i) a portion of the Borrowers' cash on hand, (ii) the borrowings under the CF Facilities on the Closing Date, (iii) the borrowings under the Senior Interim Loan Facility and the Senior Subordinated Interim Loan Facility, if any, and (iv) the proceeds of the issuance of the Senior Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes, if any, will be used on or about the Closing Date to finance the repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Tender Offer Facility and pay the Merger Consideration and the Transaction Expenses. The proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans made after the Closing Date will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, including the financing of Permitted Acquisitions. Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit will be used for general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries.

The applicable Lenders have indicated their willingness to lend, and the L/C Issuers have indicated their willingness to issue Letters of Credit, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
