Notes will not be able to effect transfers of their Original Notes tendered for exchange. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If you fail to exchange your Original

and &#147;The Exchange Offers&#151;Procedures for Tendering Original Notes&#148;. These procedures and conditions include timely receipt by the Exchange Agent of such Original Notes (or a confirmation of book-entry transfer) and of a properly

Original Notes will elect to exchange their Original Notes, we expect that the liquidity of the market for any Original Notes remaining after the completion of the Exchange Offers will be substantially limited. Any Original Notes tendered and
exchanged in the Exchange Offers will reduce the aggregate principal amount of the applicable series of Original Notes outstanding. Following the Exchange Offers, if you do not tender your Original Notes, you generally will not have any further
registration rights, and your Original Notes will continue to be subject to certain transfer restrictions. Accordingly, the liquidity of the market for the Original Notes could be adversely affected. </P>

sustained, or as to the liquidity of any market. If an active trading market does not develop or is not sustained, the market price and the liquidity of the Exchange Notes may be adversely affected. In addition, the liquidity of the trading market
for the Exchange Notes, if it develops, and the market price quoted for the Exchange Notes, may be adversely affected by changes in the overall market for those securities and by changes in our financial performance or prospects or in the prospects
for companies in our industry generally. </P>

Baxter&#146;s subsidiaries&#146; creditors. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes are exclusively Baxter&#146;s obligations and not obligations of, and will
not be guaranteed by, its subsidiaries. Baxter is a holding company and, accordingly, Baxter conducts substantially all of its operations through its subsidiaries. As a result, Baxter&#146;s cash flow and its ability to service its debt, including
the notes, depends upon the earnings and operating capital requirements of its subsidiaries. Baxter depends on the distribution of earnings, loans or other payments by its subsidiaries to it. Baxter&#146;s subsidiaries are separate and distinct
legal entities and have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay any amounts due pursuant to the notes or to make any funds available to it for such payment, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or other payments. The ability of
Baxter&#146;s subsidiaries to make any payments to it will depend on its subsidiaries&#146; earnings, business and tax considerations and any legal restrictions, including the terms of such subsidiaries&#146; current and future indebtedness. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a result of our structure, the notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness, trade payables and other
liabilities of Baxter&#146;s subsidiaries. Baxter&#146;s right to receive any assets of any of its subsidiaries upon their liquidation or reorganization, and therefore the right of holders of the notes to participate in those assets, will be subject
to the prior claims of our subsidiaries&#146; creditors, including trade creditors. In addition, even if Baxter were a creditor of any of its subsidiaries, Baxter&#146;s rights as a creditor would be subordinate to any security interest in the
assets of its subsidiaries and any indebtedness of its subsidiaries senior to that held by Baxter. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The indenture does not restrict

adversely affect holders of the notes. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The indenture does not place any limitation on the amount of unsecured debt that we may

indenture generally does not prevent us or our subsidiaries from entering into a variety of acquisition, change of control, refinancing, recapitalization or other highly leveraged transactions. As a result, we could enter into any such transaction
even though the transaction could increase the total amount of our outstanding indebtedness, adversely affect our capital structure or credit ratings, or otherwise adversely affect the holders of the notes. </P>

our indebtedness will depend on our future operating performance. Prevailing economic conditions (including interest rates) and financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, may also affect our ability to meet these
obligations. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, or obtain future borrowings in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness, or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a
portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness when needed on commercially reasonable terms or at all. </P>

facts and circumstances. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of notes to require us to repurchase its notes upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event following a sale of less than all our assets to another person may be uncertain.

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may redeem the Fixed Rate Exchange Notes of any series, in whole or in part, at any time. See &#147;Description of Exchange
Notes&#151;Optional Redemption&#148;. Although, in certain circumstances, the notes contain provisions designed to compensate you for the lost value of your notes if we redeem some or all of the notes prior to maturity, they are only an
approximation of this lost value and may not adequately compensate you. Furthermore, depending on prevailing interest rates at the time of any such redemption, you may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an
interest rate as high as the interest rate of the notes being redeemed or at an interest rate that would otherwise compensate you for any lost value as a result of any redemption of notes. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The condition of the financial markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future. In
general, as market interest rates rise, debt securities bearing interest at fixed rates of interest decline in value. Consequently, if market interest rates increase, the market values of the Fixed Rate Exchange Notes may decline. We cannot predict
the future level of market interest rates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our credit ratings are subject to change and may not reflect all risks of an investment

factors on any trading market for, or trading value of, the notes. However, actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings will generally affect any trading market for, or trading value of, the notes. Agency credit ratings are not a
recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security, and may be revised or withdrawn at any time by the issuing organization. The agencies may revise their ratings in response to changing macroeconomic conditions or in response to a change in our
financial forecasts or liquidity position. The consummation or proposed consummation of various corporate transactions may also cause the agencies to change our credit ratings. These transactions may include, among other things, potential
acquisitions of business development targets of various sizes and structures, our entry into a new or replacement credit facility or financing arrangement or the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">re-pricing</FONT> or
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">re-negotiation</FONT> of any business development transaction. Additionally, each agency&#146;s rating should be evaluated independently of any other agency&#146;s rating. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Floating Rate Exchange Notes will bear interest at a floating rate, and accordingly carry significant risks not associated with
conventional fixed rate debt securities. These risks include fluctuation of the interest rates and the possibility that you will receive an amount of interest that is lower than expected. We have no control over a number of matters, including
economic, financial and political events, that are important in determining the existence, magnitude and longevity of these risks and their results. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The interest rate on the Floating Rate Exchange Notes will be based on Compounded SOFR, which will be determined by reference to the
SOFR Index, a relatively new market index. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For each interest period with respect to the Floating Rate Exchange Notes, the interest
rate on the Floating Rate Exchange Notes will be based on Compounded SOFR, which will be determined by reference to the SOFR Index (as defined herein). The SOFR Index measures the cumulative impact of compounding the daily secured overnight
financing rate (&#147;SOFR&#148;) as provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (&#147;FRBNY&#148;), on a unit of investment over time, with the initial value set to 1.00000000 on April&nbsp;2, 2018, the first value date of SOFR. The value of
the SOFR Index on a particular business day reflects the effect of compounding SOFR on such business day and allows the calculation of compounded SOFR averages over custom time periods. For this and other reasons, the interest rate on the Floating

addition, very limited market precedent exists for securities that use SOFR as the interest rate, and the method for calculating an interest rate based upon SOFR in those precedents varies. Accordingly, the use of the SOFR Index for purposes of
calculating Compounded SOFR as used for the Floating Rate Exchange Notes may not be widely adopted by other market participants, if at all. If the market adopts a different calculation method, that would likely adversely affect the market value of

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">SOFR may fail to gain market acceptance. SOFR was developed for use in certain U.S. dollar derivatives and other financial contracts as an
alternative to the U.S. dollar London interbank offered rate (&#147;U.S. dollar LIBOR&#148;), in part because it is considered a good representation of general funding conditions in the overnight Treasury repurchase market. However, as a rate based
on transactions secured by U.S. Treasury securities, it does not measure bank-specific credit risk and, as a result, is less likely to correlate with the unsecured short-term funding costs of banks. Furthermore, several services are offering or
developing credit-sensitive alternative rates, which are designed to reflect the credit risk of banks, unlike SOFR which is a riskless rate. In some circumstances, particularly in the corporate lending market, market participants may prefer
credit-sensitive alternative rates to riskless rates such as SOFR. This may mean that market participants would not consider SOFR a suitable substitute or successor for all of the purposes for which U.S. dollar LIBOR historically has been used
(including as a representation of the unsecured short-term funding costs of banks) or for which credit-sensitive alternative rates may be used in the future, which may, in turn, lessen market acceptance of SOFR. In addition, an established trading
market for the Floating Rate Exchange Notes may never develop or may not be very liquid if it does develop. Market terms for debt securities that are linked to SOFR, such as the spread over the base rate reflected in the interest rate provisions of
those debt securities, may evolve over time, and as a result, trading prices of the Floating Rate Exchange Notes may be lower than those of later-issued debt securities that are linked to SOFR. If for these or other reasons SOFR does not prove to be
widely used for debt securities that are similar or comparable to the Floating Rate Exchange Notes, the trading price of the Floating Rate Exchange Notes may be lower than those of debt securities that are linked to rates that are more widely used.
Investors in the Floating Rate Exchange Notes may not be able to sell their Floating Rate Exchange Notes at all or may not be able to sell their Floating Rate Exchange Notes at prices that will provide them with a yield comparable to similar
investments that have a developed secondary market, and may consequently suffer from increased pricing volatility and market risk. </P>

&#147;ARRC&#148;) announced SOFR as its recommended alternative to U.S. dollar LIBOR. However, the composition and characteristics of SOFR, which underlies the SOFR Index, are not the same as those of U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR is a broad treasury repo
financing rate that represents overnight secured funding transactions. This means that SOFR is fundamentally different from U.S. dollar LIBOR for two key reasons. First, SOFR is a secured rate, while U.S. dollar LIBOR is an unsecured rate. Second,
SOFR is an overnight rate, while U.S. dollar LIBOR represents interbank funding over different maturities. As a result, we cannot assure you that SOFR or the SOFR Index will perform in the same way as U.S. dollar LIBOR would have at any time,
including, without limitation, as a result of changes in interest and yield rates in the market, market volatility or global or regional economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial or other events. </P>

comparable benchmark or other market rates, such as U.S. dollar LIBOR. Although changes in Compounded SOFR generally are not expected to be as volatile as changes in daily levels of SOFR, the return on and value of the Floating Rate Exchange Notes
may fluctuate more than floating rate debt securities that are linked to less volatile rates. In addition, the volatility of SOFR has reflected the underlying volatility of the overnight U.S. Treasury repurchase market. The FRBNY has at times

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Interest on the 2023 Floating Rate Exchange Notes will accrue at a rate equivalent to Compounded SOFR (as defined below) plus 0.260% per annum
and interest on the 2024 Floating Rate Exchange Notes will accrue at a rate equivalent to Compounded SOFR plus 0.440% per annum. Each series of the Floating Rate Exchange Notes will bear interest from December&nbsp;1, 2021 or from the immediately
preceding floating rate interest payment date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid. Interest on each series of the Floating Rate Exchange Notes will be payable as follows (each such date being a &#147;floating rate interest payment
date&#148; and, together with each fixed rate interest payment date, an &#147;interest payment date&#148;): (i) interest on the 2023 Floating Rate Exchange Notes will be payable quarterly on March&nbsp;1, June&nbsp;1, September&nbsp;1 and
December&nbsp;1 of each year, beginning on September&nbsp;1, 2022, and on the relevant maturity date, and (ii)&nbsp;interest on the 2024 Floating Rate Exchange Notes will be payable quarterly on February&nbsp;28, May&nbsp;29, August&nbsp;29 and
November&nbsp;29 of each year, beginning on August&nbsp;29, 2022, and on the relevant maturity date. Interest will be payable on each series of Floating Rate Exchange Notes to the persons in whose names such Floating Rate Exchange Notes are
registered at the close of business on the 15th calendar day preceding each floating rate interest payment date, whether or not a business day, as the case may be. However, interest that we pay on the maturity date will be payable to the person to
whom the principal will be payable. Interest on the Floating Rate Exchange Notes will be computed on the basis of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">360-day</FONT> year and the actual number of days in the Observation Period (as defined below). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If any floating rate interest payment date would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, we will make the interest payment on the next
succeeding business day, unless such next succeeding business day is in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case (other than the maturity date) we will make the interest payment on the immediately preceding business day. If an interest
payment is made on the next succeeding business day, no interest will accrue as a result of the delay in payment. If a maturity date or a redemption date for the Floating Rate Exchange Notes falls on a day that is not a business day, the payment due
on such date will be postponed to the next succeeding business day, and no further interest will accrue in respect of such postponement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As further described herein, on each Interest Payment Determination Date relating to the applicable floating rate interest payment date, the

by (ii)&nbsp;the product of (a)&nbsp;the interest rate for the relevant interest period multiplied by (b)&nbsp;the quotient of the actual number of calendar days in such Observation Period divided by 360. In no event will the interest on any series
of the Floating Rate Exchange Notes be less than zero. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The term &#147;interest period&#148;, with respect to any series of the Floating

floating rate interest payment date for such series, (ii)&nbsp;in the case of the last such period, from and including the floating rate interest payment date for such series immediately preceding the maturity date for such series to but excluding
such maturity date or (iii)&nbsp;in the event of any redemption of any such Floating Rate Exchange Notes, from and including the floating rate interest payment date immediately preceding the applicable redemption date to but excluding such

Original Notes were purchased by the Initial Purchasers on December&nbsp;1, 2021, for resale to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside of the United Stated to
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. In connection with the sale of the Original Notes, Baxter and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as
representatives of the Initial Purchasers, entered into the Registration Rights Agreement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Baxter is making the Exchange Offers in
reliance on the position of the SEC as set forth in <I>Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation </I>and similar <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">no-action</FONT> letters. However, Baxter has not sought our own
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">no-action</FONT> letter. Based upon these interpretations by the SEC, Baxter believes that a holder of Exchange Notes who is not our &#147;affiliate&#148; within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act and who
exchanges Original Notes for Exchange Notes in the Exchange Offers generally may offer the Exchange Notes for resale, sell the Exchange Notes and otherwise transfer the Exchange Notes without further registration under the Securities Act and without
delivery of a prospectus that satisfies the requirements of Section&nbsp;10 of the Securities Act. This does not apply, however, to a holder who is our &#147;affiliate&#148; within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act. Baxter also believes
that a holder may offer, sell or transfer the Exchange Notes only if the holder acknowledges that the holder is acquiring the Exchange Notes in the ordinary course of its business and is not participating, does not intend to participate and has no
arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of the Exchange Notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Any holder of the Original Notes
using the Exchange Offers to participate in a distribution of Exchange Notes cannot rely on the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">no-action</FONT> letters referred to above. Any broker-dealer who holds Original Notes acquired for its own account as a
result of market-making activities or other trading activities and who receives Exchange Notes in exchange for such Original Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offers may be a statutory underwriter and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements
of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes. See &#147;Plan of Distribution&#148;. You may not participate in the Exchange Offers if you are a broker-dealer tendering Original Notes that you acquired directly from us
for your own account. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as set forth in this prospectus, this prospectus may not be used for an offer to resell, resale or other

such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so
acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an &#147;underwriter&#148; within the meaning of the Securities Act. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be
used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Notes received in exchange for Original Notes where such Original Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. Baxter

forming part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgement from a DTC participant tendering Original Notes that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of

may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in right of
the corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at its request in such capacity in another corporation or business association, against expenses
(including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person&#146;s conduct was unlawful. The statute provides that
indemnification pursuant to its provisions is not exclusive of other rights of indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. Article NINTH of
Baxter&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation provides that Baxter shall indemnify directors and officers of Baxter and its subsidiaries against certain liabilities that may arise as a result of such service to the fullest extent permitted by the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Baxter is also empowered by Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware to include a provision in its certificate of incorporation to limit under certain circumstances a director&#146;s liability to Baxter or its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty as a director.
Article EIGHTH of Baxter&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation states that to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, directors of Baxter shall not be liable to Baxter or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Under currently applicable Delaware law, directors will remain liable for damages for (i)&nbsp;a breach of their duty of loyalty to Baxter and its stockholders;
(ii)&nbsp;acts or omissions not in good faith; (iii)&nbsp;their intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law; (iv)&nbsp;unlawful dividend payments, stock repurchases or redemptions; and (v)&nbsp;any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Baxter maintains insurance policies under which the directors and officers of Baxter are insured, within

knowledge that the Exchange Agent also acts as the agent of the Company and an affiliate of the Exchange Agent acts as Trustee under the Indenture for the Original Notes and the Exchange Notes) with respect to the tendered Original Notes with full

Notes for transfer on the books of the Company and receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Original Notes, all in accordance with the terms of the applicable Exchange Offer(s). The power of attorney

&#147;Securities Act&#148;), of the Company, that any Exchange Notes to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of business and that at the time of commencement of the applicable Exchange Offer(s) it had no arrangement with any

Notes to be exchanged for Exchange Notes were acquired by it as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes; however, by so
acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an &#147;underwriter&#148; within the meaning of the Securities Act. </B></P>

be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a participating broker-dealer (as defined below) in connection with resales of Exchange Notes received in exchange for Original Notes, where such Original Notes were acquired by such
participating broker-dealer for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, for a period ending 90 days after the applicable Expiration Date or, if earlier, when all such Exchange Notes have been disposed of
by such participating broker-dealer. In that regard, each broker-dealer who acquired Original Notes for its own account as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a &#147;participating broker-dealer&#148;), by tendering such Original
Notes and executing this Letter of Transmittal, agrees that, upon receipt of notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event or the discovery of any fact which makes any statement contained or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus
untrue in any material respect or which causes the Prospectus to omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained or incorporated by reference therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or of the occurrence of certain other events specified in the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, such participating broker-dealer will suspend the sale of Exchange Notes </B></P>

<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">no-action</FONT> letters issued to third parties, that the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Original Notes pursuant to the applicable Exchange Offer(s) may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise
transferred by holders thereof, without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that: (1)&nbsp;such holders are not affiliates of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 under the
Securities Act; (2)&nbsp;such Exchange Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders&#146; business; (3)&nbsp;such holders are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of such Exchange Notes and have no arrangement
or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of such Exchange Notes; and (4)&nbsp;such holders are not broker-dealers tendering Original Notes that have been acquired from the Company for their own account. However, the staff
of the Commission has not considered the Exchange Offers in the context of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">no-action</FONT> letter, and there can be no assurance that the staff of the Commission would make a similar determination with respect to
the Exchange Offers as in other circumstances. If a holder of Original Notes is an affiliate of the Company, acquires the Exchange Notes other than in the ordinary course of such holder&#146;s business or is engaged in or intends to engage in a
distribution of the Exchange Notes or has any arrangement or understanding with respect to the distribution of the Exchange Notes to be acquired pursuant to the applicable Exchange Offer(s), such holder could not rely on the applicable
interpretations of the staff of the Commission and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any secondary resale transaction. </P>

will render a tender of Original Notes defective and Baxter will have the right, which it may waive, to reject such tender. Holders who anticipate tendering by a method other than through DTC are urged to promptly contact a bank, broker or other

payments of principal and interest, each tendering holder of Original Notes should provide its correct TIN by completing the Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-9</FONT> enclosed below, certifying (A)&nbsp;that the TIN provided is correct (or
that such holder is awaiting a TIN), (B) that (i)&nbsp;the holder is exempt from backup withholding, (ii)&nbsp;the holder has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that such holder is subject to a backup withholding as a result of a
failure to report all interest or dividends or (iii)&nbsp;the Internal Revenue Service has notified the holder that such holder is no longer subject to backup withholding and (C)&nbsp;that the holder is a U.S. person (including a U.S. resident
alien). If the Original Notes are in more than one name or are not in the name of the actual owner, such holder should consult the General Instructions on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-9</FONT> for information on which TIN to report. If
such holder does not have a TIN, such holder should consult the General Instructions on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-9</FONT> for instructions on applying for a TIN, and write &#147;applied for&#148; in lieu of its TIN. Note: writing
&#147;applied for&#148; on the form means that such holder has already applied for a TIN or that such holder intends to apply for one in the near future. If a holder writes &#147;applied for&#148; on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-9,</FONT>
backup withholding at a rate currently of 24% will nevertheless apply to all reportable payments made by such holder. If such a holder furnishes its TIN to the Company within 60 calendar days, however, any amounts so withheld shall be refunded to
such holder. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the tendering holder of Original Notes is a nonresident alien or foreign entity not subject to backup withholding, such holder should

Service&#146;s website, www.irs.gov. If backup withholding applies, the payor will withhold the appropriate percentage (currently 24%) from payments to the payee. Backup withholding is not an additional Federal income tax. Rather, the Federal income
tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service. </P>

Code requires you to provide your correct TIN to persons (including federal agencies) who are required to file information returns with the IRS to report interest, dividends, or certain other income paid to you; mortgage interest you paid; the
acquisition or abandonment of secured property; the cancellation of debt; or contributions you made to an IRA, Archer MSA, or HSA. The person collecting this form uses the information on the form to file information returns with the IRS, reporting
the above information. Routine uses of this information include giving it to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. commonwealths and possessions for use in administering
their laws. The information also may be disclosed to other countries under a treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce civil and criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism. You must provide your
TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Under section 3406, payers must generally withhold a percentage of taxable interest, dividend, and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to the payer. Certain penalties
may also apply for providing false or fraudulent information. </P>
