2018. The Benchmarks Regulation applies to &#147;contributors,&#148; to &#147;administrators&#148; of, and &#147;users&#148; of &#147;benchmarks&#148; in the European Union. Among other things, it (i)&nbsp;requires benchmark administrators to be
authorized (or, if <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-European</FONT> Union based, to be subject to an equivalent regulatory regime) and to comply with requirements relating to the administration of &#147;benchmarks&#148; and (ii)&nbsp;prevents

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">EURIBOR is a benchmark rate produced by the European Money Markets Institute (&#147;EMMI&#148;). As at the date of this prospectus supplement, the EMMI does

requirements of the Benchmarks Regulations and, if it remains <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-compliant</FONT> as at January&nbsp;1, 2020, may only continue to be used in existing contracts, subject to permission from the Belgian Financial
Services and Markets Authority. On October&nbsp;17, 2018, the EMMI launched a public consultation on a reformed methodology for calculating EURIBOR, based in part on observed rates in real transactions and in part on quotations from banks. The EMMI
announced that it intends to apply for authorization of the new methodology in the second quarter of 2019, with a view to implementation before the end of 2019. In addition, the continued viability of EURIBOR will depend on the willingness of banks
to contribute quotations to the EMMI. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The reform of EURIBOR could have a material impact on the floating rate notes, in particular, if the methodology or

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This description of foreign exchange risks does not describe all the risks of an investment in securities, including, in particular, the notes, that are

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes will be governed by New York law. Under New York law, a New York state court rendering a judgment on the notes would be required to render the
judgment in euro. However, the judgment would be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of entry of the judgment. Consequently, in a lawsuit for payment on the notes, investors would bear currency exchange risk until
a New York state court judgment is entered, which could be a long time from the date the judgment is rendered. In courts outside of New&nbsp;York, investors may not be able to obtain a judgment in a currency other than U.S. dollars. For example, a
judgment for money in an action based on the notes in many other U.S. federal or state courts ordinarily would be enforced in the United States only in U.S. dollars. The date used to determine the rate of conversion of euro into U.S. dollars will
depend upon various factors, including which court renders the judgment. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The notes permit Medtronic Luxco or, in the case of the guarantees,

guarantee, Medtronic plc or Medtronic, Inc. due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond Medtronic Luxco, Medtronic plc or Medtronic, Inc.&#146;s control or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of
the European Economic and Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of the notes will be
made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to Medtronic Luxco or, in the case of the guarantee, Medtronic plc or Medtronic, Inc. or so used. In such circumstances, the amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S.
dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second business day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the
basis of the then most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second business day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of the notes so made in U.S. dollars will not
constitute an event of default under the notes or the indenture governing the notes. See &#147;Description of Notes&#151;Issuance in Euro.&#148; The exchange rate may be materially less favorable than the rate in effect at the time the notes were
issued or as would be determined by applicable law. Such developments, or market perceptions concerning these and related issues, could materially adversely affect the value of the notes and you may lose a significant amount of your investment in

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The European Commission has proposed a financial transactions tax in certain member states of the
European Union which, if adopted, could apply in certain circumstances to secondary market trades of the notes both within and outside of those participating member states. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On February&nbsp;4, 2013, the European Commission published a proposal (the &#147;Commission&#146;s proposal&#148;) for a Directive for a common financial
transactions tax (&#147;FTT&#148;) in Belgium, Germany, Estonia, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Austria, Portugal, Slovenia and Slovakia (each, other than Estonia, a &#147;participating Member State&#148;). Following the ECOFIN Council meeting of
December&nbsp;8, 2015, Estonia officially announced its withdrawal from the negotiations and, on March&nbsp;16, 2016, completed the formalities required to leave the enhanced cooperation on FTT. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Commission&#146;s proposal has a very broad scope and could, if introduced in its current form, apply to certain dealings in the notes (including
secondary market transactions) in certain circumstances. The issuance and subscription of the notes, however, is expected to be exempt. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the
Commission&#146;s proposal, the FTT could apply in certain circumstances to persons both within and outside of the participating Member States. Generally, it would apply to certain dealings in the notes where at least one party is a financial
institution and at least one party is established in a participating Member State. A financial institution may be, or be deemed to be, &#147;established&#148; in a participating Member State in a broad range of circumstances, including (a)&nbsp;by
transacting with a person established in a participating Member State or (b)&nbsp;where the financial instrument which is subject to the dealings is issued in a participating Member State. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The FTT proposal remains subject to negotiation among the participating Member States. It may therefore be altered prior to any implementation (if at all),
the timing of which remains unclear. Additional member states of the European Union may decide to participate and/or certain of the participating Member States may decide to withdraw. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The notes will initially be held in book-entry form and therefore investors must rely on the procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream to exercise any
rights and remedies. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes will initially be issued in the form of global notes registered to Euroclear or Clearstream or their common
depository or nominee for so long as Euroclear or Clearstream or their common depositary or nominee is the registered holder of the notes issued in the form of one or more global notes. Euroclear, Clearstream or such common depositary or nominee, as
the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the notes represented by the global notes for all purposes under the indenture governing the notes and the notes. Payments of principal, interest and premium and additional amounts, if
any, in respect of the global notes will be made to Euroclear, Clearstream, such common depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, as registered holder thereof. After payment to Euroclear, Clearstream, such common depository or such nominee, we
will have no responsibility or liability for the payment of interest, principal or other amounts to the owners of book-entry interests. Accordingly, if investors own a book-entry interest, they must rely on the procedures of Euroclear and
Clearstream and, if investors are not participants in Euroclear and Clearstream, they must rely on the procedures of the participant through which they own their interest, to receive such payments or to exercise any other rights and obligations of a
holder of notes under the indenture governing the notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unlike the holders of the notes themselves, owners of book-entry interests will not have the
direct right to act upon our solicitations for consents, requests for waivers or other actions from holders of the notes. Instead, if an investor owns a book-entry interest, it will be permitted to act directly only to the extent it has received
appropriate proxies to do so from Euroclear and Clearstream. The procedures implemented for the granting of such proxies may not be sufficient to enable such investor to vote on a timely basis. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Similarly, upon the occurrence of an event of default under the indenture governing the notes, unless and until definitive or certificated registered notes
are issued in respect of all book-entry interests, if investors own book-entry interests, they will be restricted to acting through Euroclear and Clearstream. The procedures to be implemented through Euroclear and Clearstream may not be adequate to
ensure the timely exercise of rights under the notes. See &#147;Description of Notes&#151;Book-Entry System; Delivery and Form&#148; in this prospectus supplement. </P>

period that spans two taxable years, at the average rate for the partial period within the taxable year. The U.S. holder will recognize foreign currency gain or loss (which will be treated as ordinary income or loss) with respect to accrued interest
income on the date the interest payment is actually received. The amount of ordinary income or loss recognized will equal the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the euro payment received (determined based on a spot rate on the date the

treated as foreign-source income for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. The source of foreign currency gain or loss is generally determined by reference to the residence of the recipient or, in certain circumstances, of the &#147;qualified business
unit&#148; of the U.S. holder to which the gain or loss is attributable. In each case such income, gain or loss will generally be treated as income in the &#147;passive category&#148; for those purposes (though in certain cases interest income may
be treated as income in the &#147;general category&#148; for those purposes). Instead of taking a foreign tax credit, a U.S. holder may deduct such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> income taxes in computing U.S. taxable income,

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A U.S. holder generally will recognize gain or loss upon the sale, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note equal to the difference between the amount
realized and such U.S. holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the note. For these purposes, the amount realized does not include any amount attributable to accrued interest. Amounts attributable to accrued interest are treated as interest as described
under &#147;Payments of Interest&#148; above. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A U.S. holder&#146;s tax basis in a note generally will be the U.S. dollar value of the euro amount paid
for the note, determined on the date of the purchase. A U.S. holder&#146;s amount realized generally will equal the U.S. dollar value of the euro received, calculated at the exchange rate in effect on the date of disposition, plus the fair market
value of any other property received, in exchange for the note. If the notes are traded on an established securities market, special rules will apply for purposes of determining the exchange rate to use in translating euro to U.S. dollars. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except to the extent of foreign currency gain or loss, as described below, any gain or loss recognized on a taxable disposition of a note will generally be
capital gain or loss. If, at the time of the sale, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note, a U.S. holder is treated as holding the note for more than one year, such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss. Otherwise,
such capital gain or loss will be short-term capital gain or loss. In the case of certain <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> U.S. holders (including individuals), long-term capital gain generally is subject to U.S. federal income
tax at a lower rate than short-term capital gain, which is taxed at ordinary income rates. A U.S. holder&#146;s ability to deduct capital losses is subject to significant limitations under the Code. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A U.S. holder may recognize foreign currency gain or loss upon the sale, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note as a result of fluctuations in the <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">euro-U.S.</FONT> dollar exchange rate. Gain or loss attributable to such fluctuations will equal the difference between (i)&nbsp;the U.S. dollar value of the U.S. holder&#146;s purchase price in euro of the note,
determined using the spot price on the date the note is disposed of, and (ii)&nbsp;the U.S. dollar value of the U.S. holder&#146;s purchase price in euro of the note, determined using the spot price on the date the U.S. holder acquired the note. The
foreign currency gain or loss will be recognized only to the extent of the total gain or loss realized by a U.S. holder on the sale, redemption or other taxable disposition of the note. Any such gain or loss generally will be ordinary income or loss
and will generally be sourced by reference to the residence of the U.S. holder or, in certain circumstances, of the &#147;qualified business unit&#148; of the U.S. holder to which the gain or loss is attributable. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a U.S. holder recognizes a loss upon a sale or other taxable disposition of a note and such loss is above certain thresholds, the U.S. holder may be
required to file a disclosure statement with the IRS. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A U.S. holder will have a tax basis in any euro received on the sale, redemption or other taxable
disposition of a note equal to the U.S. dollar value of the euro, determined at the time of sale, redemption or other taxable disposition. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If any <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> income tax is withheld on the sale or other taxable disposition of a note, the amount realized by a U.S. holder will include the gross amount of the proceeds of that sale or other taxable disposition before
deduction of such tax. Capital gain or loss, if any, recognized by a U.S. holder on the sale or other taxable disposition of a note will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Alternatively, the U.S.
holder may take a deduction for the foreign income tax if the U.S. holder elects to deduct (rather than credit) all eligible foreign income taxes paid or accrued during the taxable year. </P>

&#147;stabilizing manager&#148;) (or any person acting on behalf of the stabilizing manager) may over-allot the notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market prices of the notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise
prevail. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the stabilization manager of a greater principal amount of
notes than they are required to purchase in this offering. The stabilization manager must close out any short position by purchasing notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the stabilization manager is concerned
that there may be downward pressure on the prices of the notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose
of preventing or retarding a decline in the market prices of the notes while this offering is still in progress. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Similar to other purchase transactions,
the stabilization manager&#146;s purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market prices of the notes or preventing or retarding a decline in the market prices of the notes. As a result, the
prices of the notes may be higher than the prices that might otherwise exist in the open market. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Neither we nor any underwriter makes any representation

transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Settlement </B></P>

prospectus supplement (such settlement being referred to as &#147;T+3&#148;). Under Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">15c6-1</FONT> of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless
the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes prior to the third business day before the date of delivery of the notes hereunder will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially
settle in T+3, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Conflicts of Interest

Notes due 2019 at the time those notes are repaid. As a result, one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates may receive 5% or more of the net proceeds from this offering. Any such underwriters would be deemed to have a conflict of interest
within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5121. Accordingly, this offering is being made in compliance with the requirements of FINRA Rule 5121. No underwriter with a &#147;conflict of interest&#148; under FINRA Rule 5121 will confirm sales to any

investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (which may include bank loans and/or credit default swaps) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may
at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. In addition, affiliates of some of the underwriters are
lenders, and in some cases agents or managers for the lenders, under our revolving credit facility, and affiliates of some of the underwriters are lenders under our term loan facility. Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates that have a
lending relationship with us routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. A typical hedging strategy would include these underwriters or their affiliates hedging such exposure by entering into
transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect
future trading prices of the notes. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend

Forward-looking statements broadly include our current expectations or forecasts of future results. Our forward-looking statements generally relate to our growth and growth strategies, developments in the markets for our products, financial results,
product development launches and effectiveness, research and development strategy, regulatory approvals, competitive strengths, restructuring and cost-saving initiatives, intellectual property rights, litigation and tax matters, government
investigations, mergers and acquisitions, market acceptance of our products, accounting estimates, financing activities, ongoing contractual obligations, working capital adequacy, value of our investments, our effective tax rate, our expected
returns to shareholders, and sales efforts. Such statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;could,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;forecast,&#148;

this prospectus and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our ability to drive long-term shareholder value, development and future launches of products and continued or
future acceptance of products and therapies in our operating segments; market positioning and performance of our products, including stabilization of certain product markets; anticipated timing for U.S. FDA and
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> regulatory approval of new products; increased presence in new markets, including markets outside the U.S.; changes in the market and our market share; acquisitions and investment initiatives, as well
as integration of acquired companies into our operations; the resolution of tax matters; the effectiveness of our development activities in reducing patient care costs and hospital stay lengths; our approach towards cost containment; our

working capital needs; our payment of dividends and redemption of shares; the continued strength of our balance sheet and liquidity; our accounts receivable exposure; and the potential impact of our compliance with governmental regulations and
accounting guidance. One must carefully consider forward-looking statements and understand that such statements may be affected by inaccurate assumptions and may involve a variety of risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, including, among
others, risks related to competition in the medical device industry, reduction or interruption in our supply, quality problems, liquidity shortfalls, decreasing prices and pricing pressure, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, changes in
applicable tax rates, positions taken by taxing authorities, adverse regulatory action, delays in regulatory approvals, litigation results, self-insurance, commercial insurance, health care policy changes, international operations, failure to
complete or achieve the intended benefits of acquisitions or disruption of our current plans and operations, as well as those discussed in the sections entitled &#147;Risk Factors&#148; and &#147;Government Regulation and Other Considerations&#148;
in our Annual Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the fiscal year ended April&nbsp;29, 2016. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may vary materially. We intend to take advantage
of the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding our forward-looking statements, and are including this sentence for the express purpose of enabling us to use the protections of the safe harbor with
respect to all forward-looking statements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We undertake no obligation to update any statement we make, but investors are advised to

Debt securities in global form will be deposited with or on behalf of a depositary. Global securities are represented by one or more certificates for the series registered in the name of the depositary or its nominee. Debt securities in global form
may not be transferred except as a whole among the depositary, a nominee of or a successor to the depositary, or any nominee of that successor. Unless otherwise identified in the prospectus supplement, the depositary will be The Depository Trust
Company (&#147;DTC&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a depositary for a series of debt securities is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary, we will

debt securities in registered form. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Ownership of the Global Securities; Beneficial Ownership</I>. So long as the depositary or its

debt securities for all purposes under the indenture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A purchaser of debt securities represented by a global security will not be
entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated securities, will not be considered the holder of those securities for any purpose under the indenture, and will not be able to transfer or exchange the global security, unless the prospectus
supplement provides to the contrary. As a result, each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of the depositary to exercise any rights of a holder under the indenture. In addition, if the beneficial owner is not a direct or indirect
participant in the depositary, the beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of the participant through which it owns its beneficial interest in the global security. We understand that under existing industry practice, in the event we request any
action of holders of debt securities or an owner of a beneficial interest in the global securities desires to take any action that the depositary, as the holder of the global securities, is entitled to take, the depositary would authorize the
participants to take such action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through such participants to take such action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners owning through them. </P>

the debt securities on DTC&#146;s records. The beneficial owner&#146;s ownership interest in the debt securities is in turn recorded on the direct or indirect participants&#146; records. Beneficial owners will not receive written confirmations from
DTC of their purchases, but they are expected to receive them, along with periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through whom they purchased the debt securities. Transfers of ownership interests in the global
securities will be made on the books of the participants on behalf of the beneficial owners. Certificates representing the interests of the beneficial owners in the debt securities will not be issued unless the use of global securities is suspended,
as discussed above. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the global securities. Its records only reflect the identity

Neither DTC nor Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. will give consents for or vote the global securities. DTC generally mails an omnibus proxy to us just after any applicable record date. That proxy assigns Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co.&#146;s consenting or voting rights to
the direct participants to whose accounts the securities are credited on the record date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Payments</I>. Principal and interest

beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for customers in bearer form or registered in &#147;street name.&#148; Those payments will be the responsibility of that
participant, and not DTC, the trustee or us, subject to any legal requirements in effect at that time. We are responsible for paying principal, interest and premium, if any, to the trustee, which is responsible for making those payments to
Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. DTC is responsible for disbursing those payments to direct participants. The participants are responsible for disbursing payments to the beneficial owners. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Medtronic plc and Medtronic Luxco are organized and existing under the laws of countries other than the United States. In addition, certain of
the directors and officers of these entities may reside outside of the United States and a significant portion of their assets may be located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process
on Medtronic plc or Medtronic Luxco or to enforce in the United States judgments obtained in U.S. courts against Medtronic plc or Medtronic Luxco or those persons based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. securities laws or other laws.
Uncertainty exists as to whether courts in Luxembourg and Ireland, as applicable, will enforce judgments obtained in other jurisdictions, including the United States, against the domestic companies or their directors or officers under the securities
or other laws of those jurisdictions or entertain actions in those jurisdictions against Medtronic plc or Medtronic Luxco or their directors or officers under the securities or other laws of those jurisdictions. </P>

</I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have been advised by counsel that the United States currently does not have a treaty with Ireland providing for the reciprocal
recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any U.S. federal or state court based on civil liability, whether or not based solely on U.S. federal or state
securities laws, would not automatically be enforceable in Ireland. A judgment of the U.S. courts will be enforced by the Irish courts if the following general requirements are met: (i)&nbsp;the procedural rules of the U.S. court must have been
observed and the U.S. court must have had jurisdiction in relation to the particular defendant according to Irish conflict of law rules (the submission to jurisdiction by the defendant would satisfy this rule); and (ii)&nbsp;the judgment must be
final and conclusive and the decree must be final and unalterable in the court which pronounces it. A judgment can be final and conclusive even if it is subject to appeal or even if an appeal is pending. Where however, the effect of lodging an
appeal under the applicable law is to stay execution of the judgment, it is possible that, in the meantime, the judgment should not be actionable in Ireland. It remains to be determined whether final judgment given in default of appearance is final
and conclusive. However, the Irish courts may refuse to enforce a judgment of the U.S. courts which meets the above requirements for one of the following reasons: (a)&nbsp;if the judgment is not for a definite sum of money; (b)&nbsp;if the judgment
was obtained by fraud; (c)&nbsp;if the enforcement of the judgment in Ireland would be contrary to natural or constitutional justice; (d)&nbsp;if the judgment is contrary to Irish public policy or involves certain United States laws which will not
be enforced in Ireland; or (e)&nbsp;if jurisdiction cannot be obtained by the Irish courts over the judgment debtors in the enforcement proceedings by personal service in Ireland or outside Ireland under Order 11 of the Superior Courts Rules. </P>

currency other than Euro, an Irish court would have power to give judgment expressed as an order to pay a currency other than Euro. However, enforcement of the judgment against any party in Ireland would be available only in Euro and for such
purposes all claims or debts would be converted into Euro. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Certain Insolvency Considerations </I></B></P>

creditor or any surety or guarantor for the debt due, to such creditor a preference over other creditors shall be deemed to be an unfair preference and will be invalid if (a)&nbsp;a winding up of the company commences within six months of doing the

in order to resolve its financial difficulties by entering into an agreement with its creditors, the purpose of which is to avoid bankruptcy. Preventive composition proceedings may only be applied for by a company which is in financial difficulty.
Similar to controlled management proceedings, the preventive composition proceedings are not available if the company has already been declared bankrupt by the Commercial District Court or if the Luxembourg Obligor is acting in bad faith. The
application for the preventive composition proceedings can only be made by the Luxembourg Obligor and must be supported by proposals of preventive composition. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Commercial District Court will delegate to a delegated judge (<I>juge d&eacute;l&eacute;gu&eacute;</I>) the duty to verify, and to prepare
a report on, the situation of the Luxembourg Obligor. Based on such report, the Commercial District Court will decide whether or not to pursue the preventive composition proceedings. If the Commercial District Court considers that the procedure
should not be pursued, it will in the same judgment declare the bankruptcy of the company (which bankruptcy may also be declared during the preventive composition proceedings if the conditions for the composition proceedings are not met). If the
Commercial District Court considers that the procedure may be pursued, it will set the place, date and hour of a meeting (<I>assembl&eacute;e concordataire</I>) at which the creditors will be convened. The delegated judge will make its report at the
meeting (<I>assembl&eacute;e concordataire</I>). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The preventive composition may only be adopted if a majority of the creditors
representing, by their unchallenged claims, three quarters of the Luxembourg Obligor&#146;s debt, has adhered to the proposal and if the preventive composition has been homologated by the Commercial District Court. Creditors benefiting from
mortgages (<I>hypoth&egrave;ques</I>), privileges (<I>privil&egrave;ges</I>) or pledges (<I>gages</I>) only have a deliberating voice in the operations of the concordat, if they renounce the benefit of their mortgages, privileges or pledges. The
vote in favor of the concordat entails renunciation. The renunciation may be limited by the secured creditors to only a portion (but representing at least 50% in value) of their claims with corresponding voting rights. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The preventive composition has no effect on the claims secured by a mortgage, a privilege or a pledge and on claims by the tax authorities. If
the application results in a preventive composition arrangement sanctioned by the Commercial District Court, the preventive composition could still either be annulled (if it has not been executed) or terminated (in case of fraud or bad faith of the
company). In such scenarios, the Commercial District Court may adjudicate bankrupt the Luxembourg Obligor. The bankruptcy judgment can decide to set the date of cessation of payment to the date of the application for the preventive composition
proceedings. If that date is less than six months prior to the bankruptcy judgment, the court can of course set the cessation of payment date at six months prior to its judgment. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The purpose of the suspension of payments proceedings is to allow a business undertaking experiencing financial difficulties to suspend its

fixed by the court, those specified transactions must be set aside or declared null and void. Such transactions will include, for example: the granting of a security interest for antecedent debts, the payment of debts which have not fallen due,
whether such payment is made in cash or by way of assignment, sale, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">set-off</FONT> or by any other means, the payment of debts which have fallen due by any other means than in cash or by bill of exchange and the sale
of assets without consideration or for materially inadequate consideration. Paragraph 4 of Article 445 of the Luxembourg Commercial Code expressly states that any security which would have been granted by the debtor to a creditor, during the
