2016 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan of CONMED Corporation (the &ldquo;2016 Plan&rdquo;) to amend the 2007 Plan
to increase the number of shares available for issuance, and to update the plan for current business needs, subject to shareholder
approval. The Registrant&rsquo;s shareholders approved the 2016 Plan on May 25, 2016. The 2016 Plan, among other things, increases
the number of shares issuable thereunder by 150,000 shares of Common Stock. This Registration Statement relates to the additional
150,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2016 Plan.</P>

New York Business Corporation Law (the &ldquo;BCL&rdquo;) provides that a corporation may indemnify an officer or director, in
the case of third party actions, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses and, in the case
of derivative actions, against amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, if the director or officer &ldquo;acted, in
good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in . . . the best interests of the corporation&rdquo; and, in the
case of criminal actions, in addition, &ldquo;had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.&rdquo; Statutory
indemnification may not be provided in derivative actions in respect of a threatened action, or a pending action which is settled
or otherwise disposed of, or any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation,
unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action was brought, or, if no action was brought, any court of competent
jurisdiction, determines upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such portion of the settlement and expenses as the court deems proper.</P>

6.6. Indemnification. The Corporation shall indemnify each person made or threatened to be made a party to any action or proceeding,
whether civil or criminal, by reason of the fact that such person or such person&rsquo;s testator or intestate is or was a director
or officer of the Corporation, or serves or served at the request of the Corporation, any other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any capacity, against judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in
settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys&rsquo; fees, incurred in connection with such action or proceeding, or
any appeal therein, provided that no such indemnification shall be made if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to such
person establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and
were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he or she personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage
to which he or she was not legally entitled, and provided further that no such indemnification shall be required with respect to
any settlement or other nonadjudicated disposition of any threatened or pending action or proceeding unless the Corporation has

or, where indemnification is granted, to the extent the expenses so advanced or reimbursed exceed the amount to which such person
is entitled, provided, however, that such person shall cooperate in good faith with any request by the Corporation that common
counsel be utilized by the parties to an action or proceeding who are similarly situated unless to do so would be inappropriate

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">The Amended and Restated 2016 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation
Plan of CONMED Corporation (this &ldquo;Plan&rdquo;) is established to attract and retain highly qualified individuals who are
not current or former employees of CONMED Corporation (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) as members of the Board of Directors of the Company
and to enable them to increase their ownership in the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the &ldquo;Common
Stock&rdquo;). This Plan will be beneficial to the Company and its stockholders because it will allow these directors to have a
greater personal financial stake in the Company through the ownership of the Common Stock, in addition to underscoring their common
interest with stockholders in increasing the long-term value of the Common Stock. This Plan is an amendment and restatement of
the Amended and Restated 2007 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan (the &ldquo;Prior Plan&rdquo;).</P>

plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (C) by any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant
to an offering of such securities, or (D) pursuant to a Non-Control Transaction (as defined in clause (ii) below); (ii) the consummation
of a merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar form of corporate reorganization of the Company (or any such type of transaction
involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries that requires the approval of the Company&rsquo;s stockholders, whether for the
transaction or the issuance of securities in the transaction or otherwise) (a &ldquo;<U>Business Combination</U>&rdquo;), unless

such Business Combination (including, without limitation, any corporation which directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership
of 100% of the Company Voting Securities) eligible to elect directors of such corporation is represented by shares that were Company
Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination (either by remaining outstanding or being converted), and such
voting power is in substantially the same proportion as the voting powers of such Company Voting Securities immediately prior to
the Business Combination, (B) no person (other than any holding company resulting from such Business Combination, any employee
benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company (or the corporation resulting from such Business Combination)) immediately
following the consummation of the Business Combination becomes the beneficial owner, directly&nbsp;or indirectly, of 25% or more

for such Business Combination (any Business Combination which satisfies the conditions in clauses (A), (B) and (C) is referred
to hereunder as a &ldquo;<U>Non-Control Transaction</U>&rdquo;); or (iii) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
a Change in Control of the Company shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires beneficial ownership of more
than 25% of the Company Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Company Voting Securities by the Company which reduces
the number of Company Voting Securities outstanding; <U>provided</U>, that if after such acquisition by the Company such person
becomes the beneficial owner of additional Company Voting Securities that increases the percentage of outstanding Company Voting
Securities beneficially owned by such person, a Change in Control of the Company shall then occur.</P>
