As described in the Explanatory Note, the number of ordinary shares, par value €0.03 per share ("Ordinary Shares"), of Wright Medical Group N.V. (the "Registrant"), referred to as
"Additional Shares," represents an increase in the total number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the Wright Medical Group N.V. Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as such plan has been and may be amended
hereafter from time to time (the "Plan"). 333,333 Ordinary Shares have been registered previously under a prior Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Reg. No. 333-172553). On June 28, 2016, the Registrant's shareholders
approved the Plan, which, among other things, increased the number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the Plan by 216,667 shares.
(2)
In addition, the maximum number of Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the Plan is subject to adjustment in accordance with certain provisions of the Plan. Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this Registration Statement shall also cover any additional Ordinary Shares of the Registrant that become issuable under the Plan by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization or other similar transaction effected without receipt of consideration that increases the number of the Registrant's outstanding Ordinary Shares.
(3)
Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(h)(1) and (c) under the Securities Act and calculated based on the average of the high and low sales prices of
the Ordinary Shares, as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on June 27, 2016.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
On October 1, 2015, Trooper Merger Sub Inc., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier N.V., merged with and into Wright Medical
Group, Inc., with Wright Medical Group, Inc. surviving the merger as an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Tornier N.V. (the "Merger"). Upon completion of the Merger, Tornier N.V. changed its name to Wright Medical Group N.V.
(the "Registrant").
The Tornier N.V. 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (as such plan has been and may be amended hereafter
from time to time, the "Plan") was initially approved by the Registrant's shareholders at the Registrant's annual general meeting of shareholders on August 26, 2010. On March 2, 2011, the Registrant filed a registration
statement on Form S-8 (Reg. File No. 333-172553) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the registration of 333,333 ordinary shares to be issued under the Plan. On June 28, 2016, the
Registrant's shareholders approved an amended and restated version of the Plan that, among other things, changed the name of the Plan to the "Wright Medical Group N.V. Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan" and increased
the number of ordinary shares available for issuance under the Plan by 216,667 shares (the "Additional Shares").
The
purpose of this registration statement on Form S-8 (this "Registration Statement") is to register the Additional Shares, which consist of an additional 216,667 ordinary shares available for issuance under the Plan. The increase reflected
by the Additional Shares was approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors and shareholders.
