1 LEGION Total Knee System Clinical Heritage

2 Proven performance, continuous innovation Smith & Nephew has a rich history in the medical field dating back over 150 years. The company has produced many products that demonstrate proven performance. Built upon the world-class GENESIS II design and its nearly 20 years of clinical data, the LEGION Total Knee System is carrying on the legacy. LEGION Primary Knee System - Safety and Efficacy Clinical Study 1 A ten year study spanning five sites and 138 patients. Two year interim results show just two revisions; one for infection and one for patella clunk. LEGION Primary demonstrated excellent implant survivorship of 98.6%. While the study shown above is based on two year interim results, the LEGION Total Knee System has a rich heritage based on the GENESIS II Design. LEGION and GENESIS II achieve equivalent articulation but do so via different surgical approaches to femoral external rotation. GENESIS II offers built-in external rotation by having asymmetric posterior condyles whereas LEGION offers surgeon-directed external rotation with symmetric posterior condyles. The differing techniques produce identical implant tibio-femoral kinematics and wear performance. 2 When GENESIS II was introduced in 1995, the built-in external rotation was a unique concept and design. It simplified the procedure and surgical technique for primary total knees. Over time, the need to simplify more complex primary and revision procedures has grown. To address this the implant was modified so that the surgeon could set the external rotation based on patient anatomy, resulting in symmetric posterior condyles. At the same time, the instruments were simplified and a seamless transition to a revision procedure was created leading to the evolution of GENESIS II into the LEGION Total Knee System. Same cutting blocks are used for both implants. For LEGION the block is put in external rotation and for GENESIS II the block is neutral to the posterior condyles. LEGION has symmetric posterior condyles while GENESIS II has a thinner medial posterior condyle due to the built in external rotation.

5 Why do LEGION and GENESIS II have such good results? The clinical results of LEGION and GENESIS II can in large part be attributed to unique design features working together to produce a world class knee implant. Lateralized and deepened trochlear groove Femoral components have an S-curve trochlear groove that, like the natural femur, gently moves the patella from a lateral position in extension towards the midline in flexion. This has shown to reduce lateral release rates to ~3% 12 compared to ~14% 13 for competitive systems. The patella groove has been distally extended to provide full patellofemoral contact throughout the ROM. Mid-flexion Patella position Bone Conserving PS Box Less bone is removed with the femoral components compared to competitive systems, 14 leaving the critical anterior bone bridge intact for stability and strength. GENESIS II/LEGION Other knee systems Asymmetric baseplate for better tibial coverage The asymmetric shape matches the anatomy of the tibia, 15 eliminating the need to undersize which can lead to uncovered bone or oversize which can lead to baseplate overhang. Additionally, maximizing tibial coverage through asymetric baseplate has also been shown to minimize tibia rotational errors. 16 Oversized Symmetric Baseplate Posterior- Lateral Overhang Undersized Symmetric Baseplate Posterior-Medial Uncovered Anatomic Baseplate Full Coverage with No Overhang VERILAST Technology for wear reduction VERILAST Technology is the bearing couple of OXINIUM Oxidized Zirconium and XLPE which has completed wear testing 9 times the industry standard 17 and shown exceptional wear performance. VERILAST Technology incorporates proprietary OXINIUM alloy. Compared to cobalt chrome, OXINIUM alloy has much less cobalt (<0.002%), chromium (<0.02%) and nickel (<0.0035%) content. Highly polished baseplate for backside wear reduction LEGION baseplates have a proven locking mechanism with an anterior and posterior dovetail to reduce micromotion and are composed of highly polished titanium to decrease backside wear. 18 Flexion friendly Tightly radiused posterior condyles allow for deeper flexion without the risk of edge loading or excessive collateral ligament tension. The PS and CR High Flex inserts support flexion up to 155. One study by Dr. Laskin showed a mean ROM of 118º five years postoperatively. 19 PS High Flex insert CR High Flex insert 5

6 The legacy continues with LEGION LEGION encompasses the same design features that have demonstrated longterm survivorship with GENESIS II. LEGION CR and PS knees provide the same kinematic motion and articulation as GENESIS II with the addition of updated instrumentation and a seamless total knee system able to handle all stages of knee reconstruction. 2 Updated instruments LEGION is not only offered with updated traditional instrumentation but also with a more cost-effective and simplified approach to total knee arthroplasty. VISIONAIRE FASTPak includes VISIONAIRE Cutting Guides and size-specific disposable instruments. The surgeon has confidence that he will have new, sterile instruments specific for each patient and the OR staff can have confidence that setup, surgery and cleanup will be simple with minimal time commitment. 20 VISIONAIRE FASTPak 6

7 LEGION offers peace of mind LEGION has the flexibility to address diverse surgical challenges and simplify decision making interoperatively. The LEGION instrumentation gives you the ability to move from a cruciate retaining implant all the way to a hinged component. Seamless system Same A-P Resection Add PS Box Add Augments Add Constraint Same A-P Resection Add Revision Components Same A-P Resection with Build-up Add Hinge Components Today s orthopaedic environment demands simple solutions with proven clinical history. With the durability of VERILAST Technology, inter-operative flexibility of both implants and instrumentation, and a rich clinical heritage the LEGION Total Knee System gives surgeons peace of mind not only in the OR but with the knowledge that their patients will successfully return to their active lifestyles. 7
