    ANALYSIS OF AGREEMENT CONTAINING CONSENT ORDERS TO AID PUBLIC COMMENT In the Matter of Becton, Dickinson and Company and C. R. Bard File No. 171 0140, Docket No. C-4637 I. INTRODUCTION The Federal Trade Commission (“Commission”) has accepted, subject to final approval, an Agreement Containing Consent Orders (“Consent Agreement”) from Becton, Dickinson and Company (“BD”) and C. R. Bard, Inc. (“Bard”) (collectively, the “Respondents”) that is designed to remedy the anticompetitive effects that would likely result from BD’s proposed acquisition of Bard. The proposed Decision and Order (“Order”) requires the Respondents to divest all rights and assets related to Bard’s tunneled home drainage catheter business and BD’s soft tissue core needle biopsy device business to Merit Medical Systems, Inc. (“Merit”). The Order To Maintain Assets requires Respondents to maintain the viability and competitiveness of the businesses pending divestiture. Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 23, 2017, BD and Lambda Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of BD, will acquire the issued and outstanding shares of Bard by means of a merger in exchange for cash and stock valued at approximately $24 billion (the “Acquisition”). The Commission’s Complaint alleges that the proposed Acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 45, by substantially lessening competition in the U.S. markets for tunneled home drainage catheter systems and soft tissue core needle biopsy devices. The Consent Agreement is designed to remedy the alleged violations by preserving the competition that otherwise would be lost in these markets as a result of the proposed Acquisition.

White, Corporate Communications – 201-847-5369 BD ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR 2011 SECOND FISCAL QUARTER Franklin Lakes, NJ (April 26, 2011) – BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX), a leading global medical technology company, today reported quarterly revenues of $1.922 billion for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011, representing an increase of 6.8 percent from the prior- year period. On a foreign currency-neutral basis, revenue increased 4.6 percent, despite an unfavorable comparison to the prior year of about 2.3 percentage points due to strong sales related to the H1N1 flu pandemic, supplemental spending in Japan and stimulus spending in the U.S. in fiscal year 2010. “We are pleased with our solid results this quarter, which were in line with our expectations,” said Edward J. Ludwig, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We continued the increased pace of our R&D spending and made strategic investments, such as our acquisition of Accuri Cytometers, demonstrating our commitment to driving revenue growth through innovation.” Update on Impact of Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Order volumes for BD products in Japan have now returned to normal levels. The Company’s manufacturing plant in Fukushima sustained some earthquake-related damage, but the prepared plated media manufacturing lines were recently restarted, and manufacturing of BD HypakTM Prefillable Syringes is expected to resume during the third fiscal quarter 2011. BD’s Fukushima distribution center and an additional distribution center near Tokyo are in operation.
