The Company has made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants to conduct its business in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time and not to engage in certain types of transactions during this period unless agreed to in writing by Parent, in each case subject to certain exceptions. Subject to certain exceptions, the Merger Agreement also prohibits the Company and its representatives from soliciting alternative acquisition proposals, entering into discussions or negotiations of or any agreement concerning, or providing confidential information in connection with, any alternative acquisition proposal. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company has agreed not to withhold, withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to Parent the recommendation of the Company Board that the Company's shareholders approve the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Covidien International Finance S.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medtronic plc and an indirect parent company of Parent and Merger Sub (the "Guarantor"), has executed a guaranty pursuant to which it has agreed to guarantee all of the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement (the "Guaranty"). The Guaranty also contains a commitment by the Guarantor to vote, and to cause all of its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates to vote, at the Special General Meeting of Shareholders, any and all Company Shares beneficially owned by the Guarantor or such subsidiaries or controlled affiliates, in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
