      January 25, 2023, by and among Becton, Dickinson and Company (the &#8220;Company&#8221;), Becton Dickinson Euro Finance S.&#224; r.l., a private limited liability company (<span style="font-style: italic;">soci&#233;t&#233; &#224; responsabilite limit&#233;e</span>) organized and

    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 10pt;">The Credit Agreement is a senior unsecured revolving credit facility that provides the Company with $2.75 billion of financing, including a $100
      million letter of credit subfacility and a $194 million swingline loan subfacility (under which advances may be denominated in Euros) and, following the Extension, expires in September, 2027. Following the Extension, the expiration date of the credit
      facility may be extended for one additional one year period, subject to certain restrictions (including the consent of the lenders). The credit facility provides that the Company may, subject to additional commitments by lenders, request an
      additional $500 million of financing, for a maximum aggregate commitment under the credit facility of up to $3.25 billion. Borrowings under the credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes, and BD Euro Finance is authorized as a
      borrower under the credit facility. Interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be based on prevailing interest rates, benchmarked based on Term SOFR and subject to the Company&#8217;s credit ratings, as described in the Credit Agreement.</div>

      require the Company to have, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter following the closing of the credit facility, a Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no more than (1) 4.25:1.00 or (2) 4.75:1.00 for the four full fiscal
      quarters following the consummation of a material acquisition. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default (including non-payment of principal or interest and breaches of covenants). If any event of default occurs and is not cured
      within the applicable grace period, the outstanding loans under the facility may be accelerated by lenders holding a majority of the commitments under the Credit Agreement and the lenders&#8217; commitments under the Credit Agreement may be terminated.&#160;
      The Company guarantees the obligations of each other borrower under the Credit Agreement.</div>
