Page 5 SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT SECTION 1- RECITALS WHEREAS: A. Donna O Brien and Adam Pearce commenced this Action by statement of claim issued on August 24, 2012, against the Defendants alleging, among other things. that certain models of Bard branded products indicated for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse were negligently designed and caused injury to Canadian women implanted with them, as well as the associated subrogated claims of the provincial health insurers. B. The statement of claim also asserts claims on behalf of derivative claimants. C. The Plaintiffs brought a certification motion that was heard March 25-27. 2015. D. On April 16, 2015. the Ontario Superior Court of Justice released reasons denying the Plaintiffs certification motion. E. The Defendants have denied and continue to deny all claims in this Action, have vigorously denied any wrongdoing or liability of any kind, or whatsoever, and would have actively and diligently pursued affirmative defences and other defences had this Action not been settled. F. Based upon an analysis of the facts and law applicable to the issues in this Action, and taking into account the extensive burdens, complexities, risks and expense of continued litigation, including the determination of the Defendants potential alleged liability and potential limits thereto, the determination of damages to claimants. any

Page 6 potential appeals, as well as the fair, cost-effective and assured method of resolving the claims of the claimants, the Plaintiffs, with the benefit of advice from Class Counsel, have concluded that this Agreement is fair and reasonable, and in the best interests of the Classes. G. The Defendants similarly have concluded that this Agreement is desirable in order to avoid the time, risk and expense of continuing with the litigation, including any potential appeals, and any other present or future litigation arising out of the facts that gave rise to this litigation, and to resolve finally and completely the pending claims raised or that could have been raised in this proceeding. H. The Plaintiffs and the Defendants have engaged in hard-fought, arm s length negotiations to come to this Agreement. I. The Plaintiffs and the Defendants intend to and hereby do finally resolve this Action and the claims that were or could have been asserted in the Action against the Defendants, on the basis of two separate national classes, excluding Quebec, both certified for the purpose of settlement only, subject to the approval of the Court as hereinafter provided, without any admission of liability or wrongdoing whatsoever by the Defendants. J, The Defendants will consent to the certification of the Avaulta Class and the Align and Ajust Class, both as defined below, for settlement purposes only, and each of these classes will be funded separately by the Defendants as set out herein.

Page 7 K. The Defendants will provide a Special Circumstances Fund, as defined below, to be made available to the Claims Administrator to make payments to members of either class who. in the discretion of the Claims Administrator, are eligible for additional compensation. L. The Plaintiffs assert that they are suitable representatives for the Classes and will seek to be appointed as the representative plaintiffs for the two Classes in the Action. M. Class Counsel will retain RicePoint Administration Inc. (an independent claims administrator) to allocate the settlement funds pursuant to Schedule A to this Agreement. N. This Action, along with the parallel actions in Alberta (Boschman v Bard Canada Inc.. Court File No. 0901-12817) and Saskatchewan (Maxirnovich v Bard Canada Inc.. Court File No. Q.B. 1190 of 2013 and Dinsdale v Bard Canada Inc.. Court File No. QBG 583 2014) shall be dismissed, without costs and with prejudice.
