-------------------------------
This statement amends and restates the items set forth below
of the Schedule 13D of Zimmer, Inc. (the "Company") dated February 6, 1996
relating to the common stock(the "Common Stock") of CONMED Corporation (the
"Issuer").
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
--------------------------------------------------
Until March 20, 1996, the Company beneficially owned shares of
Common Stock pursuant to a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock, dated as of August
31, 1989 (the "Warrant"), issued by the Issuer to the Company as a portion of
the purchase price paid by the Issuer to the Company in connection with the
Issuer's acquisition of Aspen Laboratories, Inc., then a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company, in August 1989. The number of shares of Common Stock covered by
the Warrant and the purchase price per share of Common Stock were each subject
to adjustment from time to time pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of
the Warrant. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Company
pursuant to the Warrant was 704,589 shares of Common Stock exercisable at a
purchase price of $4.2578 per share (as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the
Warrant), as of March 20, 1996. The Warrant was exercised by the Company on
March 20, 1996 with respect to all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by the Company at a purchase price of $4.2578 per share in connection with
an underwritten public offering by the Issuer of 3,350,000 shares of Common
Stock for cash proceeds payable to the Issuer (the "Offering"), plus 502,500

Purchase Agreement, the purchase price paid by the Issuer to the Company
consisted of both cash consideration and the Warrant.
On March 20, 1996, in connection with the Offering, the
Company exercised the Warrant at a purchase price of $4.2578 per share for all
of the shares of Common Stock (the "Warrant Shares") beneficially owned by the
Company. The Company also exercised its registration rights pursuant to the
terms of the Warrant and sold all of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer
