EXPLANATORY NOTE
     Zimmer Holdings, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) to deregister certain of the securities previously registered for issuance under the Zimmer Holdings, Inc. Savings and Investment Program (the “Plan”) by the Registrant pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-65958), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and effective on July 26, 2001 (the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement registered 4,018,910 shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, related Preferred Stock Purchase Rights and an indeterminate amount of interests to be offered or sold pursuant to the Plan for employees who elected to purchase shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock under the Plan. The Registrant has eliminated the ability of employees to purchase or hold shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock under the Plan and is therefore filing this Post-Effective Amendment to deregister any and all securities previously registered under the Registration Statement that have not been issued or sold under the Plan.
