technology companies in the world and is advancing the world of health by improving medical discovery, diagnostics and the delivery of care. The company develops innovative technology, services and solutions that help advance both clinical therapy
for patients and clinical process for health care providers. BD has more than 70,000 employees and a presence in virtually every country around the world to address some of the most challenging global health issues. BD helps customers enhance
outcomes, lower costs, increase efficiencies, improve safety and expand access to health care. BD is subject to the Conflict Minerals Rule because, for 2023, certain of the raw materials and components contained in some of the products that we
manufactured or contracted to manufacture contained 3TG that were necessary to the functionality or production of the products. Many of our products do not contain any 3TG or are otherwise not <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope</FONT> for
purposes of our Conflict Minerals Rule compliance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We do not directly source 3TG from mines, smelters, or refiners, and we believe that we are many
levels removed from these market participants. However, through the efforts described in this Conflict Minerals Report, we seek to ensure that our sourcing practices are consistent with our Conflict Minerals Policy, which is described below. </P>

suppliers and subcontractors will not knowingly source 3TG from sources that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the Conflict Affected Region. In furtherance of this expectation and BD&#146;s obligations under the Conflict
Minerals Rule, applicable BD suppliers and subcontractors (as defined by BD) will be expected to complete a declaration concerning the usage and source of any 3TG in the products supplied to us. As part of gathering the information for the
declaration, applicable BD suppliers and subcontractors will be expected to conduct a reasonable country of origin inquiry and/or due diligence, as applicable, in accordance with the Conflict Minerals Rule and the Organisation for Economic <FONT

comprised of representatives from Global Procurement, EHS, Sustainability and Product Stewardship, and business units with products likely to contain 3TG. The Core Team is led by the Conflict Minerals Program Leader with support and oversight from
the Director, Product Stewardship Compliance. Executive leadership of the Conflict Minerals Program resides with EHS, Sustainability and Product Stewardship. </P>

Expectations for Suppliers through our Global Ethics Help Line, the number of which is <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">1-800-821-5452.</FONT></FONT></FONT> Under our internal

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Suppliers that BD determines to be <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope</FONT> are requested to complete a Conflict Minerals Reporting Template
(&#147;CMRT&#148;), which contains questions on the inclusion and source of 3TG in the materials they supplied to us and their compliance activities. For 2023, BD sent requests to 1421 Suppliers to provide us with a completed CMRT. We followed up by
email or phone with the Suppliers that did not provide a response within a specified time frame. If the Supplier still did not respond to our request or refused to respond, this information was forwarded to Global Procurement or local buyers at
manufacturing plants to assist as part of an escalation process. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon receipt of a CMRT from a Supplier, the response was processed through our Supplier
Response Analysis process. We reviewed the completed responses received from the Suppliers based on our &#147;red flags&#148; review criteria and for errors and inaccuracies. Additionally, we reviewed submitted CMRTs for certain errors and
inaccuracies and followed up with these Suppliers as well. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We reviewed the smelters and refiners identified to us by the Suppliers against those
contained on the Smelter <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Look-up</FONT> tab of the CMRT and the RMI smelter database, which includes information published by RMI, the Responsible Jewellery Council and the London Bullion Market Association. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To the extent that a completed response identified a smelter or refiner, we also reviewed that information
against the lists of conformant and active (or the equivalent) smelters and refiners published by the RMI as of March&nbsp;29, 2024. To the extent that a smelter or refiner identified by a Supplier was not listed as conformant or the equivalent by
the RMI, we consulted publicly available information to attempt to determine whether the smelter or refiner obtained 3TG from sources that directly or indirectly financed or benefitted armed groups in the Conflict Affected Region. See
&#147;Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry: Smelter and Refiner and Country of Origin Information&#148; and Annex 1 for further information on the smelters and refiners identified by the Suppliers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on the information furnished by the Suppliers and other information known to us, we assessed the risk of adverse impacts. The Steering Team reported the
findings of its supply chain risk assessment to senior management. We determined on a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">case-by-case</FONT></FONT> basis the appropriate mitigation strategy for any identified <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-compliance</FONT> with our Conflict Minerals Policy and other supplier requirements and expectations relating to our 3TG compliance program. Potential outcomes under our mitigation strategy include continuing to work
with the supplier while <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-compliances</FONT> are addressed or suspending or terminating the relationship with the supplier. Under our mitigation strategy, to the extent that areas of
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-compliance</FONT> that require mitigation are identified, we monitor and track the performance of the mitigation efforts and report back to appropriate senior oversight personnel. Under our procedures, we also
will undertake additional fact and risk assessments, as determined by the Steering Team, for <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-compliances</FONT> that require mitigation or after a change of circumstances. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, to the extent that identified smelters or refiners are not listed as conformant, we seek to exercise leverage over the smelters and refiners to
become conformant through our participation in and support of the RMI. We also utilize information provided by the RMI to its members to monitor smelter and refiner improvement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To mitigate the risk that the necessary 3TG contained in our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-scope</FONT> products directly or indirectly finance or
benefit armed groups in the Conflict Affected Region, in 2023, we also participated on the RMI&#146;s Due Diligence teams and made a contribution to the RMI Assessment Fund to allow the RMI to provide all initial audits free of charge. </P>
