Report of Independent Accountants To the Participants and Administrator of CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 and 1999 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Establishment and Description of Plan Effective January 1992, CONMED Corporation (the "Company") established the CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan"). Effective as of January 1, 1999, the CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan, the Aspen Laboratories, Inc. Savings and Investment Plan, and the Linvatec Corporation Savings and Investment Plan, which were previously separate plans maintained by CONMED Corporation and its subsidiaries, were merged with and into the CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan. The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all full-time employees of the Company who meet the applicable age and service requirements set forth in the Plan document. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The following brief description of the Plan is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information. Administration of the Plan The Company serves as Plan Administrator with full power, authority and responsibility to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan. Contributions A participant could contribute up to 16 percent of his or her annual compensation, as defined, up to a maximum of $10,000 per year on a pretax basis for 2000 and 1999. The Company matches 50 percent of each participant's contribution of up to a maximum of 6 percent of participant compensation. Forfeitures of terminated participants' non-vested accounts reduce employer contributions. Contributions for the 1999 plan year include approximately $4,900,000 in transfers from a plan sponsored by a business acquired by the Company. Participant Accounts Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and allocation of (a) the Company's contribution and (b) Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account. Vesting Each participant is immediately vested in his or her voluntary contributions plus earnings thereon. A participant becomes vested in the remainder of his or her account upon the completion of five years of service. Investment Options A participant may direct contributions (in five percent increments) to any of eleven investment options, as described by the plan administrator: CONMED Stock Fund - Funds are primarily invested in the common stock of the Company. FAM Value Fund - Funds are primarily invested in the Fenimore Asset Management Fund. 4
CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 and 1999 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Establishment and Description of Plan (Continued) Investment Options (Continued) Equity Income Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Equity Income Fund. This mutual fund seeks reasonable income by investing at least 65% of its total assets in income-producing equity. Investment Grade Bond Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Investment Grade Bond Fund. This mutual fund seeks a high level of current income by investing in U. S. dollar denominated investment-grade bonds. Low-Priced Stock Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Low-Priced Stock Fund. This mutual fund seeks capital appreciation by investing mainly in low-priced common stocks ($35 or less at the time of purchase). Retirement Money Market Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Money Market Trust: Retirement Money Market Portfolio. This mutual fund seeks to earn a high level of current income while maintaining a stable $1.00 share price by investing in high-quality, short-term securities. Managed Income Portfolio Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio. The portfolio seeks preservation of capital and a competitive level of income over time by investing in short and long-term investment contracts issued by insurance companies. U.S. Equity Index Fund - Invests in the Spartan U.S. Equity Index Fund. This mutual fund seeks a total return which corresponds to that of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index by attempting to duplicate the composition and total return of the S&P 500. Puritan Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Puritan Fund. The Fund seeks income and capital growth consistent with reasonable risk by investing approximately 60% of assets in stocks and other equity securities and the remainder in bonds and other debt securities. Aggressive Growth Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Aggressive Growth Fund. The Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks of domestic and foreign issuers that offer the potential for accelerated earnings or revenue growth. Diversified International Fund - Invests in the Fidelity Diversified International Fund. This Fund seeks capital growth by normally investing at least 65% of total assets in foreign securities. Loans A participant may obtain a loan between $500 and $50,000, limited to fifty percent of his or her vested account balance. Each loan bears interest at prime plus 1% and is secured by a lien on the borrowing participant's plan account. Repayment is required over a period not to exceed five years or up to 15 years where the loan is for the purchase of a primary residence. Loan repayments are allocated among the eleven investment options consistent with the participant's contribution investment election. 5
CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 and 1999 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Establishment and Description of Plan (Continued) Payment of Benefits Participants or their beneficiaries are eligible to receive benefits under the Plan upon normal retirement, death, total and permanent disability or termination for any reason other than those previously mentioned. Benefits are payable in accordance with Plan provisions. Inactive Accounts As of December 31, 2000 and 1999 plan assets included approximately $4,325,000 and $6,965,000, respectively, in amounts allocated to accounts of persons who have withdrawn from the Plan, due to termination, retirement or disability, but for which disbursement of funds has not occurred. Plan Termination While the Company anticipates and believes that the Plan will continue, it reserves the right to discontinue the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The accounts of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Valuation of Investments Investments are stated at fair value. The Company stock is valued at its quoted market price. Mutual fund investments are valued at the net asset value, representing the value at which shares of the fund may be purchased or redeemed. Investments in common collective trust funds are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the trust as determined by the investment manager. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and dividends are recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Contributions Participant contributions and matching employer contributions are recorded in the period during which the Company makes payroll deductions from the participants' earnings. Administrative Expenses All administrative expenses, including accounting, legal and trustee fees are paid by the Company. 6
CONMED Corporation Retirement Savings Plan Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2000 and 1999 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for plan benefits and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions to and deductions from net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Risks and Uncertainties The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of eleven funds. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits. 3. Income Tax Status The trust established under the Plan to hold the Plan's assets is qualified pursuant to the appropriate section of the Internal Revenue Code, and, accordingly, the trust's net investment income is exempt from income taxes. The Plan has obtained a favorable tax determination letter, dated June 20, 1995, from the Internal Revenue Service and the Plan administrator believes that the Plan continues to qualify and to operate as designed. 7
