Our Company

Mead Johnson Nutrition Company is a global leader in pediatric nutrition with approximately $2.9
billion in net sales for the year ended December 31, 2008. We are committed to creating trusted nutritional brands and products that help improve the health and development of infants and children around the world and provide them with the best
start in life. Our Enfa family of brands, including Enfamil®infant formula, is the worlds leading brand franchise in pediatric nutrition, based on retail sales. Our
comprehensive product portfolio addresses a broad range of nutritional needs for infants, children and expectant and nursing mothers. We have more than 100 years of innovation experience during which we have developed or improved many breakthrough
or industry-defining products across each of our product categories. Our singular focus on pediatric nutrition and our implementation of a business model that integrates nutritional science with health care and consumer marketing expertise
differentiate us from many of our competitors.

We market our portfolio of more than 70 products to mothers, health care professionals and
retailers in more than 50 countries in Asia, North America, Latin America and Europe. Our two reportable segments are Asia/Latin America and North America/Europe, which comprised 52.6% and 47.4%, respectively, of our net sales for the year ended
December 31, 2008. See Item 8. Financial StatementsNote 16. Segment Information. For the year ended December 31, 2008, 61.5% of our net sales were generated in countries outside of the United States.

We believe mothers and health care professionals associate the Mead Johnson name and the Enfa family of brands with quality, science-based pediatric
nutrition products. We believe the strength of our brands allows us to create and maintain consumer loyalty across our product portfolio and stages of pediatric development.

The two principal product categories in which we operate are infant formula and childrens nutrition, which represented 67.0% and 29.7% of our net
sales for the year ended December 31, 2008, respectively.

Our History

Mead Johnson was founded in 1905, and we introduced Dextri-Maltose®, our first infant formula product, in 1911. Over the next several decades, we built upon our leadership in science-based nutrition, introducing many innovative infant feeding products while
expanding into vitamins, pharmaceutical products and nutrition. During the course of our history, we have expanded our operations into geographies outside of the United States, including Europe, Asia and Latin America. Throughout our history, our
deeply-held commitment to support breastfeeding and our commitment to improve the health and development of infants and children around the world have been hallmarks of our organization. In 1967, we became a wholly owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers
Squibb Company (with its subsidiaries, BMS).

In February 2009, we consummated an initial public offering of 34.5 million shares of
our Class A common stock. BMS beneficially owns 127,655,429 shares of our Class B common stock (representing 100% of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock) and 42,344,571 shares of our Class A common stock (or approximately 55.1%
of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock). Each share of Class B common stock has 10 votes per share and each share of Class A common stock has one vote per share. The shares of Class B common stock are convertible into shares of
Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. As a result, BMSs share ownership represents 83.1% of our outstanding stock, with 97.5% of the combined voting power of our capital stock. Due to its level of ownership, BMS has the ability to
exercise substantial control and influence over our management and affairs.

Our Brands

The Mead Johnson name has been associated with science-based nutritional products for more than 100 years. In addition to the Mead Johnson name, our products are marketed around the world under brands that we have developed through our
global sales and marketing efforts.

Enfa Family of Brands

The Enfa family of brands includes several of the worlds leading infant formula and
childrens nutrition brands. We have positioned the Enfa family of brands as providing unique, clinically supported health and developmental benefits. The Enfa family of brands features products that include DHA and ARA, which support brain,
visual and nervous system development. Our Enfa family of brands, including Enfamil® infant formula, which accounted for 61.0 % of our net sales for the year ended
December 31, 2008, is the worlds leading brand franchise in pediatric nutrition, based on retail sales.

Building upon the strength of our brand equity, we have extended the Enfa family of brands into the fast-growing childrens nutrition category. We believe we have enhanced consumer retention by creating links
between age groups and leveraging brand loyalty. Additionally, the use of the Enfa prefix in our prenatal nutrition products (such as EnfaMama A+®) reinforces the scientific basis,
quality and innovation that these products hold in common with our core pediatric nutrition line.

We consistently promote the brand
through our global sales and marketing operations. Our studies show mothers and health care professionals often associate the Enfa family of brands with science, superior nutrition, quality and good value. Mothers often describe the Enfa family of
brands as science-based, sophisticated, trustworthy, reliable and comforting. Additionally, health care professionals frequently comment on our professional and innovative approach to nutrition science.

Complementary Brands

In addition to the Enfa family of brands, we market several other powerful brands on a local,
regional or global basis. These brands complement the Enfa family of brands portfolio and are designed to meet the nutritional needs of broad consumer populations (such asChocoMilk®
and Cal-C-Tose®) or the specific nutritional needs of infants under the supervision of health care professionals (such as Nutramigen®).

Stages of Development

Generally, there are five stages of pediatric development and we produce different products for each of these stages. The stages of development are illustrated below:

LOGO

In the United States, our business is focused on the infant formula category (Stages 1 and 2). However, outside
of the United States, we market both infant formula products (Stages 1 and 2) and childrens nutrition products designed for the changing nutritional needs of growing toddlers and children (Stages 3, 4 and 5). This allows us to take advantage
of brand loyalty developed in Stages 1 and 2 to retain consumers as their children grow older.

Routine Infant Formula

We design routine infant formula as a breast milk substitute for healthy, full-term infants without special nutritional needs both for use as the
infants sole source of nutrition and as a supplement to breastfeeding. We endeavor to bring routine infant formula closer to breast milk. We also provide products within our routine formula line for healthy full-term infants who experience
common feeding problems with symptoms such as mild spit-up, fussiness or gas.

Each product is referred to as a formula, as it
is formulated for the specific nutritional needs of an infant of a given age. Generally, routine infant formula has the following four main components: (1) protein from cows milk that is processed to have a profile similar to human milk,
(2) a blend of vegetable fats (including DHA/ARA) to replace bovine milk fat in order to better resemble the composition of human milk, (3) a carbohydrate, generally lactose from cows milk and (4) a vitamin and mineral
micronutrient pre-mix that is blended into the product to meet the specific needs of the infant at a given age. Patterned after breast milk, which changes composition to meet the infants changing nutritional needs, we produce two
stages of infant formula. Stage 1 formula is consumed by newborn infants up to six months of age, and Stage 2 formula is generally consumed by infants aged from six to twelve months. Our most prominent product form around the world is
milk-based powder, but we also produce several infant formulas in ready-to-use and concentrated liquid form for sale in the United States and Canada.

We market the same product under different names in different regions, based on regional marketing
strategies and regional brand recognition. For example, our premium Stage 1 infant formula containing DHA and ARA is sold under the brands Enfamil LIPIL® in the United States,
Enfamil Premium® in Latin America and Enfamil A+®/Enfalac A+® in Asia and Europe. We market all of our routine infant formulas for mild intolerance such as Gentlease and Prosobee® under the Enfa
family of brands name. In parts of Asia, Latin America and Europe, we use the name Enfapro for our Stage 2 products.

##### Table of Contents

Routine infant formula products comprised 86.1%, 86.1% and 86.0% of our infant formula net sales for the
years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Specialty Formulas

Our specialty formulas include: (1) formulas for severe intolerance, (2) formulas for premature and low birth weight infants and
(3) medical nutrition products. Specialty infant formula products comprised 13.9%, 13.9% and 14.0% of our infant formula net sales for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Formulas for Severe Intolerance

We
design formulas for severe intolerance to be used on the specific recommendation and under the supervision of a doctor. We specially formulate these products for use by infants displaying symptoms of certain conditions or diagnosed with special
medical needs.

Nutramigen® infant formula was the first infant formula to include protein hydrolysate in the United States. This ingredient is easier for infants with severe intolerance to digest because its protein is extensively hydrolyzed (or broken down into
peptides, a process that would otherwise be performed in the infants stomach). We designed Nutramigen® infant formula for use by infants with severe milk protein allergies.
Nutramigen®with LGG infant formula is a variant of Nutramigen® we market in Europe. LGG is a probiotic ingredient
that has been associated with reduced incidence of infant atopic dermatitis, a non-contagious skin disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the skin, resulting from an allergy to cows milk. Nutramigen AA® infant formula is an amino acid formula we formulated with fully broken-down proteins which can be consumed without the need for digestion of the protein. We have designed this product for infants who experience
a severe allergy to cows milk or multiple other food allergies. Pregestimil® infant formula is a variation of the Nutramigen® formulation designed mainly for fat malabsorption. It contains medium chain triglycerides oil instead of fat.

Formulas for Premature and Low Birth Weight Infants

We also design
products for premature and low birth weight infants to meet these infants unique needs under the supervision of a doctor, most often in the hospital. Typically, such infants need extra assistance obtaining the requisite nutrition. They require
a higher density of nutrients and calories because they cannot take in enough volume of breast milk or routine infant formula. We designed Enfamil® Human Milk Fortifier product as a
supplement to a mothers breast milk that improves nutritional density. EnfaCare® infant formula, another of our products, is a hypercaloric formula available at retail for
premature babies when they are able to go home. In addition, Enfamil Premature® is an infant formula used primarily in the hospital.

Medical Nutrition

We also produce medical foods, or foods for special medical purposes, for nutritional management of
individuals with rare, inborn errors of metabolism such as maple syrup urine disease (Mead Johnson BCAD®) and phenylketonuria (Mead Johnson Phenyl-Free®). Category 1 products are intended for infants and young children from zero to three years of age and Category 2 products are suitable for children and adults. We produce approximately 20 formulas targeted at
specific disorders for use under the direct and continuous supervision of a physician. We market these medical nutrition products under the Mead Johnson brand name.

Childrens Nutrition Products

Childrens nutrition products are designed to provide
children with enhanced nutrition. Our childrens nutrition business is present primarily in Asia, Latin America and Europe. We separate our childrens nutrition

Enfa Branded Childrens Nutrition Products

Outside of the United States, we market childrens nutrition products under the Enfa family of
brands. We design these products to meet the changing nutrition needs of children at different stages of development. We offer products at Stages 3, 4 and 5 that are designed for childrens nutritional needs at one to three years of age, three
to five years of age and beyond five years of age, respectively. These products are not breast milk substitutes and are not designed for use as the sole source of nutrition but instead are designed to be a part of a childs appropriate diet.
Our use of the Enfa prefix allows for a consistent equity across Stages 3 and 4, with products such as Enfagrow®offered at Stage 3 and Enfakid®offered at Stage 4. Enfa branded childrens nutrition products comprised 56.1%, 53.4% and 53.4% of our childrens nutrition products sales for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.

Other Products

We also produce a range of other products, including pre-natal and post-natal nutritional
supplements for expectant and nursing mothers, including Expecta LIPIL®, EnfaMama A+®and Enfamil Poly-Vi-Sol®.Our products for expectant or nursing women contain vitamin supplements that provide the developing fetus or breastfed infant with an increased supply of DHA for brain, visual and nervous
system development. These products also supplement the mothers diet by providing either DHA or ARA with increased proteins, as well as 24 vitamins and minerals. Our pediatric vitamin products, such as Enfamil Poly-Vi-Sol®,provide a range of benefits for infants, including multivitamins and iron supplements. These products comprised 3.3%, 3.4% and 4.3% of our net sales for the years ended December 31,
2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The WIC program is a U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) program created to provide nutritious foods, nutrition education and referrals to
health care professionals and other social services to those considered to be at nutritional risk, including low-income pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women and infants and children up to age five. It is estimated that approximately 51% of
all infants born in the United States during the 12-month period ending December 31, 2008 benefited from the WIC program. The USDA program is administered individually by each state.

Participation in the WIC program is an important part of our U.S. business based on the volume of infant formula sold under the program. Our financial
results reflect net WIC sales, after taking into account the rebates we paid to the state WIC agencies, which represented approximately 12% of our U.S. net sales in 2008.

WIC Eligibility and Participation

The WIC program is available in all 50 U.S. states, 34
Indian Tribal Organizations, American Samoa, District of Columbia, Guam, Commonwealth Islands of the Northern Marianas, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. To be eligible to participate in WIC, one must: (1) be a pregnant or
postpartum woman or a child less than five years of

age, (2) be at nutrition risk, as determined by a health care professional and (3) meet certain income requirements. Under the WIC
eligibility guidelines, families who are at or below 185% of U.S. poverty level may participate (with some adjunct eligibility for families qualifying for other federal aid programs).

Process

Most state WIC
programs provide vouchers that participants use at authorized food stores to obtain the products covered by the program, including infant formula. Each state WIC agency is responsible for authorizing stores to accept WIC vouchers. Nearly 49,000
stores currently are authorized to accept WIC vouchers.

State WIC agencies enter into contracts with manufacturers, pursuant to which the
state agency provides mothers with vouchers for a single manufacturers brand of infant formula and, in return, the manufacturer gives the state agency a rebate for each can of infant formula purchased by WIC participants. The
manufacturers brand of infant formula provided by WIC varies from state to state depending on which manufacturer received the particular states exclusive contract.

Retailers purchase infant formula directly from the manufacturer, paying the manufacturers published wholesale price. Mothers redeem the vouchers
received from the WIC agency for infant formula at authorized retailers. The retailer is then reimbursed the full retail price by the WIC agency for redeemed vouchers. On a monthly basis, each state WIC agency invoices the contracted manufacturer
for an amount equal to the number of cans of infant formula redeemed by the agency and paid to retailers during the month multiplied by the agreed rebate per can.

Contracts

The bid solicitation process is determined by each states procurement laws,
but the process is relatively standardized across the WIC program. Some states form groups and hold their bid processes jointly while other states solicit bids individually. Some states split bids between separate contracts for milk- and soy-based
formulas. During the bid process, each manufacturer submits a sealed bid. The manufacturer with the lowest net price, calculated as the manufacturers published wholesale price less the manufacturers rebate bid, is awarded the contract.
No other factors are considered. WIC contracts are generally three years in duration with some contracts providing for extensions. Specific contract provisions can vary significantly from state to state.

Our WIC Participation

Manufacturers that choose to compete for WIC contracts must have a widely distributed infant formula brand in order to meet the requirements of the contract bidding process. As of December 31, 2008, we hold the contracts that supply
approximately 41% of WIC births. A large number of WIC contracts matured in 2006 and 2007, which resulted in significant turnover in contract holdings, but a less significant change in the overall percentage of WIC births covered by each respective
WIC contract holder.

Sales and Marketing

We conduct regional marketing in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America within a global strategic framework focused on both mothers and health care
professionals in compliance with our policy with respect to the International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes (International Code). See RegulatoryGlobal Policy and GuidanceWHO. We employ
approximately 1,350 individuals worldwide as part of our health care professional sales force and approximately 550 individuals worldwide as part of our retail sales force. Our marketing activities vary from region to region depending on our market
position, consumer trends and the regulatory environment. Our marketing teams seek to anticipate market and consumer trends, and attempt to capture deep consumer insight to determine strategy for brand positioning and communication, product
innovation and demand-generation programs. The marketing teams work with advertising agencies to create strong marketing campaigns for health care professionals, retail sales organizations and consumers.

Health Care Professionals

Our
health care professional sales force educates health care professionals about the benefits of our infant formula products in each of the countries where we market our infant formula products. Primary marketing efforts for infant formula products are
directed toward securing the recommendation of the Enfa family of brands by physicians or other health care professionals. We focus on neonatal intensive care units, physicians and other health care professionals, hospital group purchasing
organizations and other integrated buying organizations. We believe we have an industry-leading health care professional sales force.

Our
health care professional sales force receives continuous training about our products and on customer service skills. We support health care professionals by organizing continuing medical education programs, symposia and other educational interfaces
with health care professionals.

Retail Sales Organization

Our retail sales force markets our products to each of the retail channels where our products are purchased by consumers, including mass merchandisers,
club stores, grocery stores, drug stores and, to a limited extent,

##### Table of Contents

convenience stores. The size, role and purpose of our retail sales organization varies significantly from country to country depending on our market
position, the consolidation of the retail trade, consumer trends and the regulatory environment. In North America, Latin America and Asia, we focus on all retail channels, while in Europe we focus only on pharmacies, with a specialized product line.
In most countries, we have entered into logistics partnerships with distributors and wholesalers.

Consumers

As their children grow older, mothers play an increasing role in brand selection. We participate in a variety of marketing activities intended for mothers
of older children, including print and television advertising, direct mail, online/internet and promotional programs. Our marketing is evidence-based and emphasizes our superior nutritional science. Our direct marketing efforts focus upon the
targeted direct-mail and coupon distribution programs designed to reach consumers at key decision points starting from the pre-natal period. Direct mail includes educational materials as well as discount coupons.

In the United States our Enfamil Family Beginnings® program provides new or prospective mothers with many resources to help them with their newborns, including free samples, instant redeemable checks and nutritional and developmental information post-birth. The
program also includes post-natal magazines used to better inform mothers on nutritional and developmental topics and an e-mail initiative that periodically provides pertinent updates to program participants. The marketing materials at each of these
stages are designed to develop interest in our products with respect to mothers current and future needs in order to create brand loyalty. The program is focused primarily on non-WIC mothers.

Global Supply Chain

We manage sourcing,
manufacturing and distribution through our fully-integrated global supply chain. We operate in-house production facilities at seven different locations around the world and additionally utilize third-party manufacturers for a portion of our
requirements. We use our in-house production facilities for the manufacture of products distributed throughout Europe and Latin America. We utilize a third-party manufacturer in addition to in-house facilities for products distributed throughout
North America. Our in-house production facilities and third-party manufacturers provide certain material for finishing products in China, the Philippines and Thailand for distribution throughout Asia. In addition, our liquid manufacturing facility
at Evansville, Indiana, manufactures and packages liquid products that are distributed worldwide and also manufactures adult nutritional products for a third party. We believe our global manufacturing facilities and third-party supply chain will
continue to meet our worldwide demand.

Locations

Our in-house manufacturing and finishing facilities are located in the United States, Mexico, the Netherlands, China, the Philippines and Thailand. See
Item 2. Properties for a description of our global manufacturing facilities.

As the production process advances, regional or
sub-regional teams support the global team, overseeing manufacturing activities such as the finishing of our products. Our four regional quality departments perform regional and manufacturing site quality control and assurance. These departments
focus on regulatory requirements, food safety, continuous quality improvement, third-party compliance and ingredient supplier manufacturing operations.

Suppliers

We generally enter into long-term supplier agreements. We have over 30 suppliers,
through which we source approximately 80% of our materials. Through these suppliers, we obtain key raw materials (such as dairy, agricultural oil and agricultural products) and primary packaging materials (such as cans). Our suppliers also provide
us with minor raw materials and secondary packaging materials (such as cardboard and shipping cases).

---

##### Table of Contents

We procure key raw materials and primary packaging materials on a global basis. Certain raw materials,
while managed and contracted on a global basis, are subject to regional and local variations in price under the terms of the supply agreement. For example, milk prices vary at the local level around the world partly due to government pricing
regulation. Dairy products, consisting primarily of milk powders, non-fat dry milk, lactose and whey protein concentrates, accounted for approximately 43.0% of our global expenditures for materials in 2008.

Distribution

We manage our
distribution networks locally with regional oversight. We generally enter into distribution agreements with third-party logistics providers and distributors and maintain a small staff at the local or regional level to track performance and implement
initiatives.

Customers

Our products
are sold principally to wholesale and retail customers, both nationally and internationally. One of our customers, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (including sales to Sams Club), accounted for approximately 13.0%, 15.2%, and 15.8% of our gross sales for
the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Competition

We compete in two primary categories, infant formula and childrens nutrition. The competitive landscape in each category is similar around the
world, as the majority of the large global players are active in these categories. Our main global competitors for sales of infant formula and childrens nutrition products are Nestlé S.A., Abbott Laboratories, Groupe Danone and Wyeth.
Wyeth does not compete with us in the United States. We also compete against significant local competitors in Asia and Europe.

Many other
companies, including manufacturers of private label, store and economy brand products, manufacture and sell one or more products that are similar to those marketed by us. We believe sources of competitive advantage include product quality and
efficacy, brand identity, image and associated value, broad distribution capabilities and consumer satisfaction. Significant expenditures for advertising, promotion and marketing are generally required to achieve acceptance of products among
consumers and health care professionals.

Research and Development

During the past six years, we have nearly doubled our research and development expenditures and the number of individuals within our research and development department. We have three main research and development
facilities. Our research and development organization consists of approximately 300 people many of whom have extensive industry experience and advanced educational backgrounds.

With respect to infant formula, we organize our research and development on a global scale because these science-based products address nutritional needs
that are broadly common around the world. With respect to childrens nutritional products, we organize our research and development on a more regional basis to incorporate geographic-specific consumer behaviors and preferences.

We are in the process of implementing a global formulation management system to support our innovative portfolio management and product development
process. We expect this system will provide significant benefits throughout the product development and manufacturing process. In addition, we are making a significant investment in a pilot plant that will allow us to accelerate product development.

We also have strong external development relationships that complement our internal research and development capabilities. We manage our
research and development activities in collaboration with leading scientists and institutes around the world and we have an active portfolio of projects involving commercial

technology suppliers. We believe this approach allows us to be at the forefront of scientific and technological developments relevant for pediatric
nutrition. Research and development expense was $72.8 million, $67.2 million and $62.0 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Intellectual
Property

Patents

We own or license approximately 22 active U.S. and 120 non-U.S. patents and have 43 U.S. and 311 non-U.S. patent applications pending as of December 31, 2008.

Trademarks

We file and
maintain our trademarks in those countries in which we have, or desire to have, a business presence. We hold an extensive portfolio of trademarks across our key geographies. We maintain more than 5,000 trademark registrations and applications in
more than 140 countries worldwide.

Regulatory

We are subject to the laws and regulations in each country in which we market our products. We have proven processes, systems and resources in place to manage the current regulatory requirements and to participate proactively in the shaping
of future regional, country and global policy, guidance and regulations.

United States Food and Drug Administration

The main regulatory body in the United States is the U.S. FDA. The U.S. FDAs Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition is
responsible for the regulation of infant formula. The Office of Nutritional Products, Labeling, and Dietary Supplements (ONPLDS) has program responsibility for infant formula while the Office of Food Additive Safety (OFAS)
has program responsibility for food ingredients and packaging. The ONPLDS evaluates whether the infant formula manufacturer has met the requirements under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) and consults with the OFAS
regarding the safety of ingredients in infant formula and of packaging materials for infant formula.

All manufacturers of pediatric
nutrition products must begin with safe food ingredients, which are either generally recognized as safe or approved as food additives. The specific requirements for infant formula are governed by the Infant Formula Act of 1980, as amended
(Formula Act). The purpose of the Formula Act is to ensure the safety and nutrition of infant formulas, including minimum, and in some cases, maximum levels of specified nutrients.

Once an infant formula product is formulated, the manufacturer must provide regulatory agencies assurance of the nutritional quality of that particular
formulation before marketing the infant formula. The U.S. FDA has established requirements for certain labeling, nutrient content, manufacturers quality control procedures (to assure the nutrient content of infant formulas), as well as company
records and reports. A manufacturer must notify the U.S. FDA 90 days before the first processing of any infant formula that differs fundamentally in processing or in composition from any previous formulation produced by the manufacturer. The U.S.
FDA currently is finalizing incremental good manufacturing practices, quality control procedures, quality factors, notification requirements, and reports and records, for the production of infant formulas.

In addition, as part of its responsibility to implement the provisions of the FFDCA, the U.S. FDA continuously monitors infant formula products. The
FFDCA requires infant formula manufacturers to test product composition during production and shelf-life, to keep records on production, testing and distribution of each batch of infant formula and to use good manufacturing practices and quality
control procedures. In addition,

##### Table of Contents

the FFDCA requires infant formula manufacturers to maintain records of all complaints, some of which are reviewed to reveal the possible existence of a
hazard to health. The U.S. FDA conducts yearly inspections of all facilities that manufacture infant formula. The U.S. FDA also inspects new facilities during early production runs. As part of the inspection, the U.S. FDA collects and analyzes
samples of infant formula.

Outside of the United States

Country-specific regulatory laws have provisions that include requirements for certain labeling, nutrient content and manufacturers quality control
procedures (to assure the nutrient content of infant formulas), as well as company records and reports. With the exception of the European Union, most other countries regulatory agencies have not promulgated specific requirements for the
testing of new and reformulated infant formulas. Other countries will generally refer to the U.S. FDA, European Union or the WHO in establishing standards and regulations for infant formulas.

Global Policy and Guidance

WHO

The WHO is the directing and coordinating authority for health within the United Nations system. It is responsible for
providing leadership on global health matters, shaping the health research agenda, setting norms and standards, articulating evidence-based policy options, providing technical support to countries and monitoring and assessing health trends.

Many Member States of the WHO adopted the International Code 26 years ago with the aim to protect, promote and support appropriate infant
and young child feeding practices. Countries have taken variable action to enact legislation based on the guidance of the International Code. In 1983, we believe we were the first U.S. infant formula manufacturer to adopt the International Code in
developing countries and develop a specific set of marketing guidelines. While the International Code is not international law, it is our policy to comply with all applicable regulations and International Code guidance in developing countries. In
developed countries such as the United States and Canada, we comply with those countries laws and regulations.

CODEX

The CODEX is the publication of internationally recognized standards, codes of practice, guidelines and other recommendations relating
to infant formula and food production. These texts are developed and maintained by the CODEX Commission, a body that was established in 1963 by the WHO. In 2007, new comprehensive and more restrictive infant formula standards were published by
CODEX. It is usual practice for countries in Central America, Latin America, Africa and Asia to incorporate CODEX standards directly into national law. We maintain material compliance with all country law and with new CODEX standards where national
regulatory requirements have not yet been enacted.

Environmental, Health, and Safety

Our facilities and operations are subject to various environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which we
operate. Among other things, these requirements regulate the emission or discharge of materials into the environment, the use, management, treatment, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous substances and wastes, the control of combustible dust,
the reduction of noise emissions and fire and explosion risks, the cleanup of contamination and the prevention of workplace exposures and injuries. Pollution controls and various permits and programs are required for many of our operations. Each of
our global manufacturing facilities undergoes periodic internal audits relating to environmental, health, and safety requirements and we incur operating and capital costs to improve our facilities or maintain compliance with applicable requirements
on an ongoing basis. If we violate or become subject to liabilities under environmental,



11

##### Table of Contents

health, and safety laws and regulations, including requirements under the permits and programs required for our operations, we could incur, among other
things, substantial costs (including civil or criminal fines or penalties or clean-up costs), third-party claims for property damage or personal injury, or requirements to install additional pollution control or safety equipment.

From time to time, we may be responsible under various state, Federal and foreign laws, including the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), for certain costs of investigating and/or remediating contamination at our current or former sites and/or at waste disposal or reprocessing facilities operated by third parties. Liability under
CERCLA and analogous state or foreign laws may be imposed without regard to knowledge, fault or ownership at the time of the disposal or release. Most of our facilities have a history of industrial operations, and contaminants have been detected at
some of our facilities. We also have been named as a potentially responsible party, or are involved in investigation and remediation, at three third-party disposal sites. As of December 31, 2008, management believes that those
future site costs that were probable and reasonably estimable, as well as any related accruals, are not material to us.

We are also
occasionally a party to environmental proceedings and other matters. For example, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) investigates industrial and commercial facilities throughout the United States that use refrigeration
equipment containing ozone-depleting substances (ODS) and is responsible for enforcing compliance with regulations governing the prevention, service and repair of leaks (ODS requirements). In 2004, the EPA sent Mead Johnson a
request for information regarding compliance with ODS requirements at our facility in Evansville, Indiana. We responded to the request in June 2004, and, as a result, identified potential violations at the Evansville facility. In addition, BMS
performed a voluntary corporate-wide audit at all of its facilities, including the Mead Johnson facilities, in the United States that use ODS-containing refrigeration equipment. The audit report that BMS submitted to the EPA in November 2004
identified potential violations of ODS requirements at several facilities, including two potential administrative violations of ODS requirements at our Zeeland, Michigan facility. In July 2008, BMS (acting on behalf of BMS and Mead Johnson) and EPA
entered into a proposed consent decree, which requires BMS to retire or retrofit by July 2009 certain industrial refrigeration equipment at five facilities, including Evansville, Indiana. Under the proposed consent decree, BMS is also required to
pay $127,000 in civil penalties, a de minimis portion of which is attributable to Mead Johnson and will be paid by BMS. Mead Johnson believes that it does not have any material obligations remaining under the proposed consent decree. It is possible
that we may have additional obligations, or additional costs may be imposed on us, if the proposed consent decree does not become final or is otherwise modified before being finalized by the court.

We are not aware of any pending litigation or significant financial obligations or liabilities arising from current or former operations or properties
that are likely to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position or results of operations. Liabilities or obligations, which could require us to make significant expenditures, could arise in the future, however, as the result
of, among other things, changes in, or new interpretations of, existing laws, regulations or enforcement policies, claims relating to on- or off-site contamination, or the imposition of unanticipated investigation or cleanup obligations.

Insurance

Our business involves an inherent risk
of product liability and any claims of this type could have an adverse impact on us. We will take what we believe are appropriate precautions, primarily self-insurance combined with product liability insurance coverage, to provide adequate coverage
for possible product liability claims. Though our insurance coverage and cash flows have been adequate to provide for liability claims in the past, product liability claims could exceed our insurance coverage limits and cash flows, and insurance may
not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. We evaluate our insurance requirements on an ongoing basis to ensure we maintain adequate levels of coverage.

Employees

As of December 31, 2008, we employed approximately 5,300 people worldwide. Our manufacturing workforces at Zeeland, Michigan; Evansville, Indiana; Guangzhou, China and Chonburi, Thailand are not unionized. The manufacturing workforce
at Delicias, Mexico is unionized and covered by a collective bargaining agreement which becomes subject to salary and benefits review on March 31, 2009, and to total contract review on March 31, 2010. The manufacturing workforce and the
non-supervised sales force at Makati, Philippines are unionized and covered by a collective bargaining agreement, which expires on December 31, 2010. In addition, several of our workforces in Europe have works council representation. We believe
our employee relations are satisfactory.

|Item 1A. | RISK FACTORS.
|-------- | -------------

In addition to the other
information in this Annual Report, any of the factors described below could significantly and negatively affect the companys business, prospects, financial condition or operating results, which could cause the trading price of the
companys Class A common stock to decline.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our success depends on sustaining the strength of our brands, particularly our Enfa family of brands.

The Enfa family of brands accounted for 61.0% of our net sales for the year ended December 31, 2008. The willingness of consumers to purchase our
products depends upon our ability to offer attractive brand value propositions. This in turn depends in part on consumers attributing a higher value to our products than to alternatives. If the difference in the value attributed to our products as
compared to those of our competitors narrows, or if there is a perception of such a narrowing, consumers may choose not to buy our products. If we fail to promote and maintain the brand equity of our products across each of our markets, then
consumer perception of our products nutritional quality may be diminished and our business could be materially adversely affected. Our ability to maintain or improve our brand value propositions will impact whether these circumstances will
result in decreased market share and profitability.

We may experience liabilities or negative effects on our reputation as a result
of real or perceived quality issues, including product recalls, injuries or other claims.

Whether real or perceived, contamination,
spoilage or other adulteration, product misbranding or product tampering could require us to recall products. From time to time we have experienced recalls of our products. While such recalls have not been material to our business on a global level
in the past, we cannot assure you that such material product recalls will not occur in the future. We may also be subject to liability if our products or operations violate or are alleged to violate applicable laws or regulations or in the event our
products cause, or are alleged to cause, injury, illness or death.

Powder milk products are not sterile. A substantial portion of our
products must be prepared and maintained according to label instruction to retain their flavor and nutritional value and avoid contamination or deterioration. Depending on the specific type of product, a risk of contamination or deterioration may
exist at each stage of the production cycle, including the purchase and delivery of raw food materials, the processing and packaging of food products and upon use and handling by health care professionals, hospital personnel and consumers. In the
event that certain of our products are found, or are alleged, to have suffered contamination or deterioration, whether or not such products were under our control, our brand reputation and business could be materially adversely affected.

Whether real or perceived, reports or allegations of inadequate product quality control with respect to other manufacturers of pediatric nutrition
products also could adversely impact sales of our products. For example, although the U.S. FDA currently permits the use of bisphenol-A (BPA) in food packaging materials, including polycarbonate baby bottles and some of our infant
formula packaging, recent public reports and allegations regarding the potential health hazards of BPA, and several lawsuits against baby bottle manufacturers and infant formula manufacturers (including us) related to BPA content, could contribute
to a perceived safety risk about our products and adversely impact sales or otherwise disrupt our business. Further, the U.S. FDA or other regulatory authorities could prohibit the use of BPA in the future. In addition, in November 2008 and December
2008, the U.S. FDA released test results that identified extremely low trace levels of melamine and cyanuric acid in infant formula produced by U.S. manufacturers. The U.S. FDA has found no melamine in our products and only a trace amount of
cyanuric acid, which the U.S. FDA believes does not raise public health concerns, was found in a sampling of our products. Chinese authorities found significant levels of melamine in Chinese dairy used in certain infant formula products of other
manufacturers, which led to the deaths of several infants in September 2008. We do not use dairy



14

##### Table of Contents

or protein-containing raw ingredients from China at any of our manufacturing sites and we have not been adversely impacted by these events in China thus far.
Events such as these may create a perception of contamination risk among consumers with respect to all products in our industry.

In
addition, we advertise our products and could be the target of claims relating to false or deceptive advertising under foreign laws and U.S. Federal and state laws, including the consumer protection statutes of some states. A significant product
liability or other legal claim or judgment against us or a widespread product recall may negatively impact our profitability. Even if a product liability or consumer fraud claim is unsuccessful or is not merited or fully pursued, the negative
publicity surrounding such assertions regarding our products or processes could materially adversely affect our reputation and brand image and therefore our business.

We are subject to numerous governmental regulations, and it can be costly to comply with these regulations. Changes in governmental regulations could harm our business.

As a producer of pediatric nutrition products, our activities are subject to extensive regulation by governmental authorities and international
organizations, including rules and regulations with respect to the environment, employee health and safety, hygiene, quality control and tax laws. It can be costly to comply with these regulations and to develop compliant product processes. Our
activities may also be subject to all kinds of barriers or sanctions imposed by countries or international organizations limiting international trade and increasingly dictating the specific content of our products and, with regard to the protection
of consumer health and safety, limiting information and advertising about the health benefits of products that we market. In addition, regulatory changes or decisions that restrict the marketing, promotion and availability of our products, continued
access to health care professionals, the ability to include genetically modified organisms in our products, as well as the manufacture and labeling of our products, could materially adversely affect our business. For example, regulations in the
Philippines require governmental review of all advertisements for products intended for children under the age of two. In addition, certain activists, along with governmental and quasi-governmental entities, such as the United Nations
Childrens Fund (UNICEF), have advocated against the marketing and sale of pediatric nutrition products. These efforts could result in increased regulatory restrictions on our activities in the future. Our activities could be
materially adversely affected by any significant changes in such regulations or their enforcement. Our ability to anticipate and comply with evolving global standards requires significant investment in monitoring the global regulatory environment
and we may be unable to comply with changes in regulation restricting our ability to continue to operate our business or manufacture, market or sell our products.

Commodity price increases will increase our operating costs and may reduce our profitability.

Commodity prices impact our business directly through the cost of raw materials used to make our products (such as skim milk powder, lactose and whey protein concentrate), the cost of inputs used to manufacture and ship our products (such
as crude oil and energy) and the amount we pay to produce or purchase packaging for our products (such as cans, pouches, cardboard and plastic). Commodities such as these are susceptible to price volatility caused by conditions outside of our
control, including fluctuations in commodities markets, currency fluctuations and changes in governmental agricultural programs. Our dairy costs have increased significantly over the past two years. If, as a result of consumer sensitivity to pricing
or otherwise, we are unable to increase our prices to offset the increased cost of commodities, we may experience lower profitability and we may be unable to maintain historical levels of productivity.

Our business is particularly vulnerable to commodity price increases in Asia, the fastest growing region in the pediatric nutrition industry. Commodity
price increases in Asia could reduce our sales and limit our ability to pursue our growth strategy in that region. We employ various purchasing and pricing contract techniques in an effort to minimize commodity price volatility. Generally, these
techniques include setting fixed terms with suppliers such as incorporating clauses setting forth unit pricing that is based on an average commodity price over a corresponding period of time. If we fail to manage our commodity price exposure
adequately, our business may be materially adversely affected.

Our profitability may suffer as a result of competition in our markets.

The pediatric nutrition industry is intensely competitive. Our primary competitors, including Nestlé S.A., Abbott Laboratories, Groupe Danone and
Wyeth, all have substantial financial, marketing and other resources. We compete against large global companies, as well as regional and local companies, in each of the regions in which we operate. In most product categories, we compete not only
with other widely advertised branded products, but also with private label, store and economy brand products that are generally sold at lower prices. Competition in our product categories is based on the following factors:



| |  |  | brand recognition and loyalty;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | product quality;
| | - |  | ----------------



| |  |  | effectiveness of marketing, promotional activity and the ability to identify and satisfy consumer preferences;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | product innovation;
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | price; and
| | - |  | ----------



| |  |  | distribution and availability of products.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------

From time to time, in order to protect our existing market share or capture increased market share, we may need to improve our brand recognition and product value proposition, and increase our spending on marketing, advertising and new
product innovation. The success of marketing, advertising and new product innovation is subject to risks, including uncertainties about trade and consumer acceptance. We may also need to reduce prices for some of our products in order to respond to
competitive and customer pressures and to maintain our market share. Competitive and customer pressures may restrict our ability to increase prices, including in response to commodity and other cost increases. Our business will suffer if profit
margins decrease, either as a result of a reduction in prices or an increase in costs with an inability to increase prices proportionally.

Economic downturns, such as the current downturn, could cause consumers to shift their purchases from our higher-priced premium products to lower-priced products, including private label or store brands, which could materially
adversely affect our business.

The willingness of consumers to purchase premium brand pediatric nutrition products depends in part
on local economic conditions. In periods of economic uncertainty, consumers tend to shift their purchases from our higher-priced premium products to lower-priced products, including private label and store brand products. We believe private label
and store brand product manufacturers gained market share in the United States over the past 12 months.

Turmoil in the financial
markets could adversely affect our liquidity, cash flow and financial flexibility, as well as the demand for our products.

Recent
turmoil in the financial markets has adversely affected economic activity and credit markets in the United States and other regions of the world in which we do business. This could have an adverse impact on our customers, distributors, suppliers,
counterparties to certain financial instruments, financial service providers and other service providers. We believe that, based on our expected operating cash flows and relationship with BMS, the current lack of liquidity in the credit markets will
not have a material impact on our liquidity, cash flow, or financial flexibility.

Our operations face significant foreign currency
exchange rate exposure that could materially negatively impact our operating results.

We hold assets, incur liabilities, earn
revenue and pay expenses in a variety of currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Chinese renminbi, the Mexican peso, the Philippine peso, the Hong Kong dollar and the



16

##### Table of Contents

Euro. Because our financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, we must translate our assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses into U.S. dollars at
the then-applicable exchange rates. Consequently, increases in the value of the U.S. dollar versus these other currencies may negatively affect the value of these items in our financial statements, even if their value has not changed in their
original currency. While we intend to mitigate some of this risk with hedging and other activities, our business will nevertheless remain subject to substantial foreign exchange risk from foreign currency translation exposures that we will not be
able to manage through effective hedging or the use of other financial instrument approaches.

The international nature of our
business subjects us to additional business risks that could cause our revenue and profitability to decline.

We operate our
business and market our products internationally in more than 50 countries. For the year ended December 31, 2008 and year ended December 31, 2007, 61.5% and 56.2%, respectively, of our net sales were generated in countries outside of the
United States. The risks associated with our operations outside of the United States include:



| |  |  | multiple regulatory requirements that are subject to change and that could restrict our ability to manufacture, market or sell our products;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | inflation, recession, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates and discriminatory fiscal policies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adverse tax consequences from the repatriation of cash;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | trade protection measures, including increased duties and taxes, and import or export licensing requirements;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | price controls;
| | - |  | ---------------



| |  |  | government health promotional programs intended to discourage the use of our products;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | differing local product preferences and product requirements;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulty in establishing, staffing and managing operations;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | differing labor regulations;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | potentially negative consequences from changes in or interpretations of tax laws;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | political and economic instability;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------



| |  |  | enforcement of remedies in various jurisdictions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in foreign medical reimbursement policies and programs; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diminished protection of intellectual property in some countries.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

These and other risks could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our international
operations are subject to political and economic risks of developing countries, and special risks associated with doing business in corrupt environments.

We operate our business and market our products internationally in more than 50 countries, and we are focusing on increasing our sales and in some cases establishing new production facilities in regions, including
Asia, Latin America, India and the Middle East, which are less developed, have less stability in legal systems and financial markets, and are generally recognized as potentially more corrupt business environments than the United States, and
therefore present greater political, economic and operational risks. We have in place policies, procedures and certain ongoing training of employees with regard to business ethics and many key legal requirements, such as applicable anti-corruption
laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act



17

##### Table of Contents

(FCPA), which make it illegal for us to give anything of value to foreign officials in order to obtain or retain any business or other
advantages; however, there can be no assurance that our employees will adhere to our code of business ethics or any other of our policies, applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA, or other legal requirements. If we fail to enforce our
policies and procedures properly or maintain adequate record-keeping and internal accounting practices to accurately record our transactions, we may be subject to regulatory sanctions. If we believe or have reason to believe that our employees have
or may have violated applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA, or other laws or regulations, we are required to investigate or have outside counsel investigate the relevant facts and circumstances, and if violations are found or suspected
could face civil and criminal penalties, and significant costs for investigations, litigation, fees, settlements and judgments, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Sales of our products are subject to changing consumer preferences, and our success depends upon our ability to predict, identify and interpret
changes in consumer preferences and develop and offer new products rapidly enough to meet those changes.

Our success depends on our
ability to predict, identify and interpret the tastes, dietary habits and nutritional needs of consumers and to offer products that appeal to those preferences. If we do not succeed in offering products that consumers want to buy, our sales and
market share will decrease, resulting in reduced profitability. If we are unable to predict accurately which shifts in consumer preferences will be long lasting, or to introduce new and improved products to satisfy those preferences, our sales will
decline. In addition, given the variety of cultures and backgrounds of consumers in our global consumer base, we must offer a sufficient array of products to satisfy the broad spectrum of consumer preferences. As such, we must be successful in
developing innovative products across our product categories.

The consolidation of our retail customers may put pressures on our
profitability.

Our retail customers, such as mass merchandisers, club stores, grocery stores, drug stores and convenience stores,
have consolidated in recent years and consolidation is expected to continue throughout the United States, Europe and other major markets. This consolidation has produced large, sophisticated customers with increased buying power which are more
capable of operating with reduced inventories, resisting price increases and demanding lower pricing, increased promotional programs and specifically tailored products. These customers also may use shelf space currently used for our products for
their private label or store brand products. Meeting demands from these customers may adversely affect our margins and, if we fail to effectively respond to these demands, our sales could decline, each of which could materially adversely affect our
profitability.

We rely on third parties to provide us with materials and services in connection with the manufacturing and
distribution of our products.

Unaffiliated third-party suppliers provide us with materials necessary for commercial production of
our products, including certain key raw materials (such as dairy, agricultural oil and agricultural products) and primary packaging materials (such as cans). In particular, Martek Biosciences Corporation (Martek) provides us with most of the supply
of DHA and ARA that we use in our products. We may be unable to manufacture our products in a timely manner, or at all, if any of our third-party suppliers, including Martek, should cease or interrupt production or otherwise fail to supply us or if
the supply agreements are suspended, terminated or otherwise expire without renewal. If these suppliers are not able to supply us with the quantities of materials we need or if these suppliers are not able to provide services in the required time
period, this could have a material adverse effect on our business. We also utilize third parties in several countries throughout the world to distribute our products. If any of our third-party distributors fail to distribute our products in a timely
manner, or at all, or if our distribution agreements are suspended, terminated or otherwise expire without renewal, our profitability could be materially adversely affected.

The manufacture of many of our products is a highly exacting and complex process, and if we or one
of our suppliers should encounter problems manufacturing products, our business could suffer.

The manufacture of many of our
products is a highly exacting and complex process, in part due to strict regulatory requirements. Problems may arise during the manufacturing process for a variety of reasons, including equipment malfunction, failure to follow specific protocols and
procedures, problems with raw materials, maintenance of our manufacturing environment, natural disasters, various contagious diseases and process safety issues. If problems arise during the production of a batch of product, that batch of product may
have to be discarded. This could, among other things, lead to increased costs, lost revenue, damage to customer relations, time and expenses being spent investigating the cause and, depending on the cause, similar losses with respect to other
batches or products. If problems are not discovered before the affected product is released to the market, recall and product liability costs as well as reputational damage may also be incurred. To the extent that we or one of our suppliers
experience significant manufacturing problems, this could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We may experience
difficulties and delays inherent in the manufacturing and selling of our products.

We may experience difficulties and delays
inherent in the manufacturing and selling of our products, such as: (1) seizure or recalls of products or forced closings of manufacturing plants; (2) the failure to obtain, the imposition of limitations on the use of, or loss of, patent,
trademark or other intellectual property rights; (3) our failure, or the failure of any of our vendors or suppliers, to comply with current good manufacturing practices and other applicable regulations and quality assurance guidelines that
could lead to temporary manufacturing shutdowns, product shortages and delays in product manufacturing; (4) construction delays related to the construction of new facilities or the expansion of existing facilities, including those intended to
support future demand for our products; (5) other manufacturing or distribution problems, including changes in manufacturing production sites and limits to manufacturing capability due to regulatory requirements, changes in types of products
produced or physical limitations that could impact continuous supply; (6) availability of raw materials; and (7) restrictions associated with the transportation of goods in and out of foreign countries.

If we fail to increase our production and manufacturing capacity, we will be unable to continue to grow and our ability to produce new products,
expand within our existing markets and enter into new markets will be limited.

Global growth and demand for our products has
increased the utilization of our production and manufacturing facilities, including manufacturing capacity provided by third-party manufacturers and packaging capacity with respect to our products. If we are unable to successfully expand our
production and manufacturing capacity, we will be unable to continue our growth and expand within our existing markets or enter into additional geographic markets or new product categories. In addition, failure to successfully expand our production
and manufacturing capacity will limit our ability to introduce and distribute new products, including our existing pipeline of innovations and product improvements, or otherwise take advantage of opportunities in new and existing markets. Further,
increasing our production and manufacturing facilities requires significant investment and build times. Delays in increasing capacity could also limit our ability to continue our growth and materially adversely affect our business.

Disruption of our global supply chain could materially adversely affect our business.

Our ability to manufacture, distribute and sell products is critical to our success. Damage or disruption to raw material supplies or our manufacturing or
distribution capabilities due to weather, natural disaster, fire, terrorism, strikes, various contagious diseases or other reasons could impair our ability to manufacture or sell our products. Failure to take adequate steps to mitigate the
likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, particularly when a product is sourced from a single location, could materially adversely affect our business.

Changes in WIC, or our participation in it, could materially adversely affect our business.

Participation in the WIC program is an important part of our U.S. business based on the volume of infant formula sold under the
program. As of December 31, 2008, we hold the contracts that supply approximately 41% of WIC births. As a result, our business strategy includes bidding for new WIC contracts and maintaining current WIC relationships. Our failure to win bids
for new contracts pursuant to the WIC program or our inability to maintain current WIC relationships could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, any changes to how the WIC program is administered and any changes to the
eligibility requirements and/or overall participation in the WIC program could also have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our business could be harmed by a failure of our information technology, administrative or outsourcing systems.

We
rely on our information technology, administrative and outsourcing systems to effectively manage our business data, communications, supply chain, order entry and fulfillment and other business processes. The failure of our information technology,
administrative or outsourcing systems to perform as we anticipate could disrupt our business and result in transaction errors, processing inefficiencies and the loss of sales and customers, causing our business to suffer. In addition, our
information technology, administrative and outsourcing systems may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from circumstances beyond our control, including fire, natural disasters, systems failures, security breaches and viruses. Any such damage or
interruption could have a material adverse effect on our business and prevent us from paying our suppliers or employees, receiving payments from our customers or performing other information technology, administrative or outsourcing services on a
timely basis.

We may face difficulties as we expand our operations into countries in which we have no prior operating experience or
as we expand our operations into new product categories.

We intend to continue to expand our global footprint in order to enter
into new markets. This may involve expanding into countries other than those in which we currently operate. It may involve expanding into less developed countries, which may have less political, social or economic stability and less developed
infrastructure and legal systems. We also intend to expand our product portfolio by adding new product categories. As we expand our business into new countries or product categories we may encounter regulatory, personnel, technological and other
difficulties that increase our expenses or delay our ability to start up our operations or become profitable in such countries or product categories. This may affect our relationships with customers, suppliers and regulators and could have a
material adverse effect on our business.

Resources devoted to research and development may not yield new products that achieve
commercial success.

Our ability to develop new pediatric nutrition products depends on, among other factors, our ability to
understand the composition and variation of breast milk. Analyzing breast milk requires significant investment in research and development and testing of new ingredients and new production processes. We devote significant resources to investment in
research and development in order gain a deep understanding of the composite ingredients of breast milk. The research and development process is expensive, prolonged and entails considerable uncertainty. Development of a new product, from discovery
through testing and registration to initial product launch, typically takes between five and seven years. Each of these periods varies considerably from product to product and country to country. Because of the complexities and uncertainties
associated with research and development, products that we are currently developing may not complete the development process or obtain the regulatory approvals required for us to market such products successfully. The development of new products may
take longer and cost more to develop and may be less successful than we currently anticipate as a result of:



| |  |  | products that may appear promising in development but fail to reach market within the expected or optimal time frame, or fail to ever reach market, for any number
of reasons, including efficacy and the difficulty or excessive cost to manufacture;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | failure to enter into or successfully implement optimal alliances where appropriate for the discovery and commercialization of products, or otherwise to maintain a
consistent scope and variety of promising late-stage pipeline products; or
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | failure of one or more of our products to achieve or maintain commercial viability.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We cannot assure you that any of our products currently in our development pipeline will be commercially successful.

We could incur substantial costs to comply with environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations and to address violations of or liabilities
under these requirements.

Our facilities and operations are subject to various environmental, health, and safety laws and
regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Among other things, these requirements regulate the emission or discharge of materials into the environment, the use, management, treatment, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous
substances and wastes, the control of combustible dust, the reduction of noise emissions and fire and explosion risks, the cleanup of contamination and the prevention of workplace exposures and injuries. Pollution controls and various permits and
programs are required for many of our operations. We could incur or be subject to, among other things, substantial costs (including civil or criminal fines or penalties or clean-up costs), third party damage claims, requirements to install
additional pollution control or safety control equipment and/or permit revocations in the event of violations by us of environmental, health, and safely requirements applicable to our facilities and operations or our failure to obtain, develop or
comply with required environmental permits or programs. In addition, most of our facilities have a history of industrial operations, and contaminants have been detected at some of our facilities. We also have been named as a potentially responsible
party with respect to three Superfund or state sites. We can be held responsible, in some cases without regard to knowledge, fault, or ownership at the time of the release, for the costs of investigating or remediating contamination of any real
property we or our predecessors ever owned, operated, or used as a waste disposal site. In addition, we can be required to compensate public authorities or private owners for damages to natural resources or other real property, or to restore those
properties, in the event of off-site migration of contamination. Changes in, or new interpretations of, existing laws, regulations or enforcement policies, could also cause us to incur additional or unexpected costs to achieve or maintain
compliance. The assertion of claims relating to on- or off-site contamination, the discovery of previously unknown environmental liabilities or the imposition of unanticipated investigation or cleanup obligations, could result in potentially
significant expenditures to address contamination or resolve claims or liabilities. Such costs and expenditures could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights.

Given the importance of brand recognition to our business, we have invested considerable effort in seeking trademark protection for our core brands,
including the Enfa family of brands. However, we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will be sufficient to protect our intellectual property rights in our brands adequately or that third parties will not infringe upon or misappropriate
any such rights. Our trademark registrations and applications can potentially be challenged and cancelled or narrowed. Moreover, some of the countries in which we operate offer less protection for, and may subject these rights to higher risks, than
is the case in Europe or North America. In addition, it is costly to litigate in order to protect any of our intellectual property rights. If we are unable to prevent third parties from infringing or misappropriating these rights in our core
products or brands, including our Enfa family of brands, our future financial condition and our ability to develop our business could be materially adversely affected.

Other companies have from time to time taken, and may in the future take, actions that we believe violate our intellectual property rights and we may decide to enforce (and in some cases are currently enforcing) those
rights against such actions. Uncertainties inherent in such litigation make the outcome and associated costs difficult to predict. If unsuccessful, the legal actions could result in the invalidation of some of our intellectual property rights, which
could materially adversely affect our business.

##### Table of Contents

We rely on a combination of security measures, confidentiality policies, contractual arrangements and
trade secret laws to protect our proprietary formulae and other valuable trade secrets. We also rely on patent, copyright and trademark laws to further protect our intellectual property rights. We cannot, however, be certain that the steps we take
will prevent the development and marketing of similar, competing products and services by third parties. Our existing patents and any future patents that we obtain may not be sufficiently broad to protect us against third parties with similar
products or to provide us with a competitive advantage. Moreover, our patents can potentially be challenged and narrowed or invalidated. Trade secrets are difficult to protect, and despite our efforts may become known to competitors or independently
discovered. The confidentiality agreements we rely on with our employees, customers, contractors and others may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for such breach. Failure to adequately protect our valuable intellectual property from
being infringed or misappropriated could materially adversely affect our business.

We may be required to defend ourselves against
intellectual property claims from third parties, which could harm our business.

Regardless of merit, there are third-party patents
that may cover our products. Third parties may obtain patents in the future and claim that use of our technologies infringes upon these patents. If a third party asserts that our products or services are infringing upon its intellectual property,
these claims could cause us to incur significant expenses and, if successfully asserted against us, could require that we pay substantial damages and/or prevent us from selling our products. Even if we were to prevail against such claims, any
litigation regarding intellectual property could be costly and time-consuming and could divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations. Furthermore, as a result of an intellectual property challenge, we may
find it necessary to enter into royalty licenses or other costly agreements, and we may not be able to obtain such agreements at all or on terms acceptable to us.

Increases in costs of pension benefits and current and post-retirement medical and other employee health and welfare benefits may reduce our profitability.

With approximately 5,300 employees, our profitability is substantially affected by costs of retirement benefits and current and post-retirement medical
and other employee health and welfare benefits. These costs can vary substantially as a result of changes in health care costs, volatility in investment returns on plan assets and changes in discount rates used to calculate related liabilities.
These factors may put upward pressure on the cost of providing pensions and medical benefits. We can provide no assurance that we will succeed in limiting future cost increases, and upward pressure would reduce our profitability.

Labor disputes may cause work stoppages, strikes and disruptions.

The workforce at our manufacturing facility in Delicias, Mexico is unionized and covered by a collective bargaining agreement, which becomes subject to
salary and benefits review on March 31, 2009, and to total contract review on March 31, 2010. The manufacturing workforce and non-supervised sales force in Makati, Philippines are unionized and covered by a collective bargaining agreement,
which expires on December 31, 2010. In addition, several of our workforces in Europe have works council representation. As a result, any labor disputes, including work stoppages, strikes and disruptions, could have a material adverse impact on
our business.

Our success depends on attracting and retaining qualified personnel in a competitive environment.

Our business strategy and future success depends, in part, on our ability to attract, hire and retain highly-skilled managerial, professional service,
sales, development, marketing, finance, accounting, administrative, information technology, science, research and infrastructure-related personnel in a competitive environment, who are critical to our business functions. The market for
highly-skilled employees is competitive in the labor markets in which we operate. Our business could be materially adversely affected if we are unable to retain key employees or recruit



22

##### Table of Contents

qualified personnel in a timely fashion, or if we are required to incur unexpected increases in compensation costs to retain key employees or meet our hiring
goals. If we are not able to retain and attract the personnel that we require, or we are not able to do so on a cost-effective basis, it could be more difficult for us to sell and develop our products and services and execute our business strategy.

We derive a significant percentage of our revenues from one customer. The loss of this customer could materially adversely affect
our financial performance.

Our products are sold principally to the wholesale and retail trade, both nationally and
internationally, and revenues from one customer, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (including sales to Sams Club, Wal-Mart), accounted for approximately 13.0% of our gross sales for the year ended December 31, 2008. If this customer ceases doing
business with us or if we encounter any difficulties in our relationship with Wal-Mart, our business could be materially adversely affected.

An adverse change in favorable demographic and economic trends as well as a change in scientific opinion regarding our products in any of our largest markets could materially adversely affect our business and reduce our profitability.

Our growth plan relies on favorable demographic and economic trends in various markets, including: (1) rising incomes in
emerging markets, (2) increasing number of working mothers and (3) increasing consumer spending on health care worldwide. If these demographic trends change in an adverse way, our business could be materially adversely affected. In
addition, an adverse change in scientific opinion regarding our products, such as the health benefits of DHA and ARA, could materially adversely affect our business.

We have substantial debt, which could materially adversely affect our business and our ability to meet our obligations.

We had total indebtedness of $2,000 million as of December 31, 2008. See Item 8. Financial StatementsNote 3, Related Parties and Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,
and Director Independence.

This amount of debt could have important consequences to us and our investors, including:



| |  |  | requiring a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make interest and principal payments on this debt;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | requiring us to repay the full amount of our debt upon a change of control event;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | making it more difficult to satisfy debt service and other obligations;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | reducing the cash flow available to fund capital expenditures and other corporate purposes and to grow our business;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | placing us at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors that may not be as leveraged with debt as we are;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limiting our ability to borrow additional funds as needed or take advantage of business opportunities as they arise; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | pay cash dividends or repurchase common stock.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

To the extent we become more leveraged, the risks described above could increase. In addition, our actual cash requirements in the future may be greater than expected. Our cash flow from operations may not be
sufficient to repay at maturity all of the outstanding debt as it becomes due, and we may not be able to borrow money, sell assets or otherwise raise funds on acceptable terms, or at all, to refinance our debt.

##### Table of Contents

We intend to evaluate acquisitions, joint ventures and other strategic initiatives, any of which
could distract our management or otherwise have a negative effect on our revenues, costs and stock price.

Our future success may
depend on opportunities to buy or obtain rights to other businesses or technologies that could complement, enhance or expand our current business or products or that might otherwise offer us growth opportunities. In particular, we intend to evaluate
potential mergers, acquisitions, joint venture investments, strategic initiatives, alliances, vertical integration opportunities and divestitures. If we attempt to engage in these transactions, we expose ourselves to various inherent risks,
including:



| |  |  | accurately assessing the value, future growth potential, strengths, weaknesses, contingent and other liabilities and potential profitability of acquisition
candidates;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the potential loss of key personnel of an acquired or combined business;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to achieve projected economic and operating synergies;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties successfully integrating, operating, maintaining and managing newly-acquired operations or employees;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unanticipated changes in business and economic conditions affecting an acquired business;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the possibility we could incur impairment charges if an acquired business performs below expectations; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the diversion of our managements attention from our existing business to integrate the operations and personnel of the acquired or combined business or
implement the strategic initiative.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If any of the foregoing risks materializes, our results of operations and the
results of the proposed transactions would likely differ from our, and market expectations, and our stock price could, accordingly, decline. In addition, we may not be able to complete desirable transactions, for reasons including a failure to
secure financing, as a result of our separation agreement or other agreements with third parties. See Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence for a description of the restrictions arising under
the separation agreement.

We depend on cash flows generated by our subsidiaries, and a failure to receive distributions from our
subsidiaries may result in our inability to meet our financial obligations, or to pay dividends.

We are a holding company with no
material assets other than the equity interests of our subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries conduct substantially all of our operations and own substantially all of our assets. Consequently, our cash flow and our ability to meet our obligations and pay
dividends to our stockholders depends upon the cash flow of our subsidiaries and the payment of funds by our subsidiaries to us in the form of dividends, tax sharing payments or otherwise. There are a number of other factors that could affect our
ability to pay dividends, including the following:



| |  |  | lack of availability of cash to pay dividends due to changes in our operating cash flow, capital expenditure requirements, working capital requirements and other
cash needs;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unexpected or increased operating or other expenses or changes in the timing thereof;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | restrictions under Delaware law or other applicable law on the amount of dividends that we may pay;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a decision by our board of directors to modify or revoke its policy to pay dividends; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the other risks described in this Risk Factors section
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------

Each of our subsidiaries is a distinct legal entity and its ability to make any payments will depend on its earnings, the terms of its indebtedness, tax considerations and legal restrictions. While no restrictions
currently

##### Table of Contents

exist, under certain circumstances, legal and contractual restrictions may limit our ability to obtain cash from our subsidiaries and our subsidiaries may
not be able to, or be permitted to, make distributions to us in the future. In the event that we do not receive distributions from our subsidiaries, we may be unable to meet our financial obligations.

Risks Related to Our Relationship with BMS

We
may not realize the potential benefits from our separation from BMS.

We may not realize the benefits that we anticipate from our
separation from BMS. These benefits include the following:



| |  |  | allowing our management to focus its efforts on our business and strategic priorities;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | enabling us to allocate our capital more efficiently;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | providing us with direct access to the debt and equity capital markets;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | improving our ability to pursue acquisitions through the use of shares of our common stock as consideration;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | enhancing our market recognition with investors; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increasing our ability to attract and retain employees by providing equity compensation tied to our business.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We may not achieve the anticipated benefits from our separation for a variety of reasons. For example, the process of separating our business from BMS
and operating as an independent public company may distract our management from focusing on our business and strategic priorities. In addition, although we will have direct access to the debt and equity capital markets following the separation, we
may not be able to issue debt or equity on terms acceptable to us or at all. The availability of shares of our common stock for use as consideration for acquisitions also will not ensure that we will be able to successfully pursue acquisitions or
that the acquisitions will be successful. Moreover, even with equity compensation tied to our business we may not be able to attract and retain employees as desired. We also may not fully realize the anticipated benefits from our separation if any
of the matters identified as risks in this Risk Factors section were to occur. If we do not realize the anticipated benefits from our separation for any reason, our business may be materially adversely affected.

BMS controls the direction of our business, and the concentrated ownership of our common stock and certain governance arrangements will prevent you
and other stockholders from influencing significant decisions.

BMS owns 55.1% of the outstanding shares of our Class A common
stock, and 100% of our outstanding Class B common stock, giving BMS 83.1% of the shares of our outstanding common stock and 97.5% of the combined voting power of our outstanding common stock. As long as BMS owns a majority of our voting power, BMS
will be able to control any corporate action that requires a stockholder vote irrespective of the vote of, and without prior notice to, any other stockholder. As a result, BMS will have the ability to control significant corporate activities,
including:



| |  |  | the election of our board of directors and, through our board of directors, decision-making with respect to our business direction and policies, including the
appointment and removal of our officers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or assets, mergers or other business combinations;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our capital structure;
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | payment of dividends; and
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | the number of shares available for issuance under our equity incentive plans for our prospective and existing employees.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



25

##### Table of Contents

In addition, we do not have a formal mechanism by which our independent directors must approve any future
transactions with BMS.

This voting control and influence may discourage transactions involving a change of control of our company,
including transactions in which a holder of our Class A common stock might otherwise receive a premium for such shares. Furthermore, after the expiration of the 180-day lock-up period, BMS generally has the right at any time to spin-off or
split-off our common stock that it owns or to sell a controlling interest in us to a third party, in either case without stockholder approval and without providing for a purchase of the other outstanding shares.

Even if the ownership interest of BMS is reduced to less than a majority of our outstanding shares of our common stock, so long as BMS retains a
significant portion of our voting power, BMS will have the ability to substantially influence these significant corporate activities.

The transitional services that BMS provides to us may not be sufficient to meet our needs, and we may have difficulty finding replacement services or be required to pay increased costs to replace these services after our transitional
services agreement with BMS expires.

Historically BMS has provided us with significant corporate and shared services related to
corporate functions such as executive oversight, risk management, information technology, accounting, audit, legal, investor relations, human resources, tax, treasury, procurement, pensions and post retirement, stock based compensation and other
services. Following our separation from BMS, BMS continues to provide many of these services on a transitional basis for a fee. The terms of these services and amounts to be paid by us to BMS are provided in the transitional services agreement
described in Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence. While these services are being provided to us by BMS, our operational flexibility to modify or implement changes with respect to such
services or the amounts we pay for them will be limited. After the expiration of the transitional services agreement, we may not be able to replace these services or enter into appropriate third-party agreements on terms and conditions, including
cost, comparable to those that we will receive from BMS under the transitional services agreement. Although we intend to replace portions of the services currently provided by BMS, we may encounter difficulties replacing certain services or be
unable to negotiate pricing or other terms as favorable as those we currently have in effect. In addition, we have historically received informal support from BMS, which may not be addressed in the transitional services agreement that we have
entered into with BMS. We expect that the level of this informal support will diminish following the separation as we become a stand-alone company.

In Argentina, Brazil, China and Mexico, due to regulatory and other concerns, not all of the assets or shares related to our business in those jurisdictions were transferred to us prior to or concurrently with our initial public offering.
We intend to make these transfers, but we cannot offer any assurance that such transfers will ultimately occur or not be delayed for an extended period of time. See Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence.

As a stand-alone public company, we no longer have access to the resources of BMS, and we may experience
increased costs resulting from decreased purchasing power.

We have benefited from BMSs financial strength and numerous
significant business relationships and have been able to take advantage of BMSs size and purchasing power in procuring goods, services and technology. We have drawn on these resources in developing our own contacts and relationships. Following
our separation from BMS, we are no longer able to rely on BMSs resources and contacts. As a stand-alone public company, we may be unable to obtain goods, services and technology at prices and on terms as favorable as those that we obtained
prior to our separation from BMS and, as a result, our profitability could be materially adversely affected.

##### Table of Contents

We may not be able to favorably resolve disputes that arise between BMS and us with respect to our
past and ongoing relationships.

Disputes may arise between BMS and us in a number of areas relating to our past and ongoing
relationships, including:



| |  |  | labor, tax, employee benefit, indemnification and other matters arising from our separation from BMS;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | employee retention and recruiting;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | business combinations involving us;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------



| |  |  | sales or dispositions by BMS of all or any portion of its ownership interest in us; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the nature, quality and pricing of services BMS has agreed to provide us.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

We may not be able to resolve any potential conflicts, and even if we do, the resolution may be less favorable to us than if we were dealing with an
unaffiliated party. The agreements that we will enter into with BMS may be amended upon agreement between the parties. While we are controlled by BMS, we may not have the leverage to negotiate amendments to these agreements, if required, on terms as
favorable to us as those we would negotiate with an unaffiliated third party.

Some of our directors are executive officers of BMS.
In addition, some of our directors and executive officers own common stock of BMS, and options or other instruments, the value of which is related to the value of stock of BMS, which could cause conflicts of interests that result in our not acting
on opportunities on which we would otherwise act.

Six of our directors have been designated to our board of directors by BMS and
are current executive officers of BMS. These directors and a number of our officers own a substantial amount of BMS common stock, and options or other instruments, the value of which is related to the value of common stock of BMS. The direct and
indirect interests of our directors and officers in common stock of BMS and the presence of executive officers of BMS on our board of directors could create, or appear to create, conflicts of interest with respect to matters involving both us and
BMS that could have different implications for BMS than they do for us. As a result, we may be precluded from pursuing certain opportunities on which we would otherwise act, including growth opportunities.

We are a controlled company within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) rules, and, as a result, will rely on
exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to stockholders of other companies.

Because BMS
owns more than 50% of the total voting power of our common shares, we are a controlled company under the NYSE corporate governance standards. As a controlled company, certain exemptions under the NYSE standards free us from the
obligation to comply with certain NYSE corporate governance requirements, including the requirements:



| |  |  | that a majority of our board of directors consists of independent directors, as defined under the rules of the NYSE;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | that we have a corporate governance and nominating committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the
committees purpose and responsibilities;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committees purpose and
responsibilities; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | for an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and governance committee and compensation committee.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Accordingly, for so long as we are a controlled company, our stockholders will not have the
same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE corporate governance requirements.

Risks Related to Owning
Our Common Stock

Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our common stock may depress the price of our Class A
common stock.

The market price of our Class A common stock could decline significantly as a result of sales of a large number
of shares of our common stock in the market, including shares which might be offered for sale by BMS. The perception that these sales might occur could depress the market price. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might
make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.

Our costs
will increase significantly as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to complying with public company regulations.

We have historically operated our business as a division of a public company. As a stand-alone public company, we will incur additional legal, accounting,
compliance and other expenses that we have not incurred historically.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in
accordance with Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.

As a
public company, we will be required to document and test our internal control procedures to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley, which will require annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm that addresses the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. During the course of our testing, we may identify deficiencies that we may not
be able to remediate in time to meet our deadline for compliance with Section 404. Testing and maintaining internal control can divert our managements attention from other matters that are important to the operation of our business. We
also expect these regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more difficult, time consuming and costly. We may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over
financial reporting in accordance with Section 404, or our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able or willing to issue an unqualified report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. If we
conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, we cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and remediation actions or their effect on our operations because there is presently no
precedent available by which to measure compliance adequacy. If either we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting or our independent auditors are unable to provide us with an unqualified report as
required by Section 404, then investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents could discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company and may result in an
entrenchment of management and diminish the value of our Class A common stock.

Several provisions of our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws could make it difficult for our stockholders to change the composition of our board of directors, preventing them from changing the composition of management. In addition, the same
provisions may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that our stockholders may consider favorable.



28

##### Table of Contents

These provisions include:



| |  |  | a dual-class common stock structure that gives BMS and its affiliates control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors
and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | authorizing our board of directors to issue blank check preferred shares without stockholder approval;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limiting the persons who may call special meetings of stockholders; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at
stockholder meetings.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These anti-takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of our Class A common
stockholders to benefit from a change of control and, as a result, could materially adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock and our stockholders ability to realize any potential change-in-control premium.

Our corporate headquarters are located
in Evansville, Indiana, where we own office, operations and laboratory buildings comprising approximately 700,000 square feet. We also own or operate seven manufacturing facilities located in the following cities: Chonburi, Thailand; Delicias,
Chihuahua, Mexico; Evansville, Indiana; Guangzhou, China; Makati, Philippines; Nijmegen, Netherlands; and Zeeland, Michigan. For additional information related to our seven manufacturing facilities around the world, see Item 1. Global Supply
Chain. We lease the vast majority of our other properties worldwide, including our Delicias, Chihuahua, Mexico manufacturing facility. In the fall of 2008, we entered into a manufacturing arrangement that gives us access to 57,400 square foot
of manufacturing space in Tatura, Australia.

Our in-house powder manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, Mexico, the
Netherlands, China, the Philippines and Thailand.

The following table illustrates our global manufacturing locations, the approximate

|Item 5. | MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS COMMON STOCK, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS, AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shares of our Class A common stock are traded on the NYSE (symbol MJN). Our shares have only been publicly traded since February 11, 2009; as a
result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our common stock and the dividends declared on our common stock for the two most recent fiscal years. As of March 16, 2009, there were 6,598
stockholders of record of our Class A common stock. The number of record holders is based upon the actual number of holders registered on the books of the company at such date and does not include holders of shares in street names
or persons, partnerships, associations, corporations or other entities identified in security position listings maintained by depositories. BMS possesses approximately 97.5% of the voting power of our outstanding stock. See Item 1.
Business.

We did not purchase any of our equity securities, nor did we sell any securities pursuant to any unregistered offering,
during the period covered by this report.

In February 2009, we completed our initial public offering of Class A common stock pursuant
to a Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Reg. No. 333-156298) that was declared effective on February 10, 2009. Under the registration statement, we registered the offering and sale of an aggregate of 34,500,000 shares of our
Class A common stock. All of the 34,500,000 shares of Class A common stock registered under the registration statement, which included 4,500,000 shares of our Class A common stock covered by an over-allotment option granted to the
underwriters, were sold at a price to the public of $24.00 per share. Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Banc of America Securities LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. acted
as joint book running managers of the offering and as representatives of the underwriters. The offering commenced on February 10, 2009 and closed on February 17, 2009. The closing of the over-allotment portion of the offering also occurred
on February 17, 2009. As a result of the initial public offering, we raised a total of $828.0 million in gross proceeds, and approximately $782.3 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $41.4 million
and estimated offering expenses of $4.3 million. We used the entire amount of the net proceeds from the offering to (i) repay in full approximately $597 million of the foreign intercompany notes payable to subsidiaries of BMS, and
(ii) satisfy payables and other obligations owing to one or more subsidiaries of BMS that would have otherwise been forgiven or reduced in full.

We intend to pay quarterly cash dividends on our Class A common stock and Class B common stock at an initial rate of $0.20 per share. We intend to pay the first dividend in July 2009, which will include the
dividend for the second quarter and an amount on a pro-rated basis for the remainder of the first fiscal quarter of 2009 following our initial public offering and, thereafter, to pay dividends on a quarterly basis. The declaration and payment of
dividends to holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, legal requirements, restrictions in our
debt agreements and other factors our board of directors deems relevant.

|Item 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. See Item 1a. Risk Factors for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with those statements. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited financial statements and
the notes to our audited financial statements. Our results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those in Risk Factors.

Overview of Our Business

We are a global leader in pediatric nutrition with approximately $2.9 billion in net sales for the year ended December 31, 2008. We are committed to creating trusted nutritional brands and products that help
improve the health and development of infants and children around the world and provide them with the best start in life. Our Enfa family of brands, including Enfamil®infant
formula, is the worlds leading brand franchise in pediatric nutrition, based on retail sales. Our comprehensive product portfolio addresses a broad range of nutritional needs for infants, children and expectant and nursing mothers. We have
over 100 years of innovation experience during which we have developed or improved many breakthrough or industry-defining products across each of our product categories. We operate in four geographic regions: North America, Europe, Asia and Latin
America. Due to similarities in the economics, products offered, production process, customer base and regulatory environment, these operating regions have been aggregated into two reportable segments: North America/Europe and Asia/Latin America.

During 2008, our sales increased 11.9%, led by the Asia/Latin America segment where net sales increased by 23.8% compared with 2007. The
Asia/Latin America segment now represents more than 50% of our global net sales and is characterized by broad based growth, a balanced portfolio of infant and childrens products and increasing investments in advertising and promotion. Our
North America/Europe segment net sales increased by 1.1% over 2007, with an increase in Europe offset by a decline in the United States. 2008 performance in the United States has been affected by growth in private label products, due in part to the
weakening economy, and the impact of WIC contract changes on our business. The global business experienced increases in dairy and other commodity costs in 2007 and 2008. Pricing actions have been implemented to compensate, although gross margin has
declined as a percentage of sales. Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes and Minority Interest in our two reportable operating segments grew by $88.7 million in 2008 driven by strong sales growth. Net earnings, however, were down $28.6 million in
2008 due to initial public offering costs and interest expense.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

Industry Growth

According to Euromonitor, the global pediatric nutrition industry has grown
at a CAGR of approximately 11% from 2003 to 2008. We believe several trends have supported and will continue to support this growth, including the following:



| |  |  | favorable demographics;
| | - |  | -----------------------



| |  |  | increased consumer awareness of the importance of health and wellness;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | enhanced nutritional insight;
| | - |  | -----------------------------



| |  |  | innovation; and
| | - |  | ---------------



| |  |  | consumer willingness to pay for premium and enhanced nutrition products.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Perceptions of Product Quality and Safety

We believe pediatric nutrition producers with a reputation for quality and safety should be able to command higher average selling prices and thereby
generate higher gross margins than competitors who do not possess the same reputation. A decrease in the quality and safety of any particular product, whether real or perceived, could

trigger wider negative perception of the decrease in the quality and safety of all producers, thereby affecting the industry generally. We believe our past growth has benefited from our brand recognition and from real
and perceived safety and quality of our pediatric nutrition products. However, if a future market crisis involving any of our products should occur, especially if management fails to respond to such crisis in a timely and effective manner, our brand
recognition and reputation could be severely damaged, which could adversely affect our results of operations. For example, melamine was found in Chinese dairy used in certain infant formula products of other manufacturers, which led to the deaths of
several infants in September 2008. We do not use dairy or protein-containing raw ingredients from China at any of our manufacturing sites and we have not been adversely impacted by these events in China thus far. Events such as these, however, may
create a perception of contamination risk among consumers with respect to all products in our industry.

Competition and Brand
Recognition

The pediatric nutrition industry is intensely competitive. Our principal competitors, including Néstle S.A.,
Abbott Laboratories, Groupe Danone and Wyeth, all have substantial financial, marketing and other resources. In addition, we face significant competition from domestic producers and private label, store and economy brand manufacturers. In recent
years, there has been growing demand, particularly in Asia, for premium pediatric nutrition products due to increasing consumer awareness of brand image and nutritional value of the products offered by leading producers.

Our success depends on sustaining the strength of our brands, particularly our Enfa family of brands. If we fail to promote and maintain the brand equity
of our products, particularly our Enfa family of brands, across each of our markets, then consumer perception of its superior nutritional benefits may be diminished. If the difference in the value attributed to our products as compared to those of
our competitors narrows, consumers may choose not to buy our products. In periods of economic uncertainty, these trends may be more pronounced.

Raw Material Supply and Prices

The per unit costs of producing our pediatric nutrition products are subject to the
supply and price volatility of dairy and other raw materials, which are affected by global factors. For example, dairy prices are affected by factors such as geographic location, the impact of weather on dairy production, fluctuation in product
availability, competition and inflation. Dairy costs are the largest component of our costs of products sold and our dairy costs have increased significantly over the past two years.

Increases in the price of dairy would negatively impact our gross margins if we are not able to offset such increases through increases in our selling
price, change in product mix or cost reduction/productivity enhancement efforts. The prices of these materials may continue to rise due to a general increase in commodities prices, especially for agricultural products. This would in turn affect the
unit costs of products sold for our pediatric nutrition products.

Foreign Exchange Movements

We market our portfolio of products in more than 50 countries in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America. Due to the international aspect of our
business, our net sales and expenses are influenced by foreign exchange movements. This impact is reflected across our results of operations discussed below.

Our Growth Strategies

We intend to grow our business profitably and enhance shareholder value by executing against the following strategic initiatives:



| |  |  | Building on our leadership position in our core businesses;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Continuing our leadership in product innovation;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Expanding into selected high-growth geographic markets and adjacent product categories; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Continuously improving upon our manufacturing and global supply chain excellence.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Build on Our Leadership Position in Our Core Businesses

We intend to grow our business in our core countries and product categories by building loyal usage of our brands, introducing innovative product that differentiate us in the marketplace and leveraging our expertise
in marketing to consumers and health care professionals. In addition, we will continue to implement best practices and insights using our balance of local, regional and global capabilities to execute the most effective programs in all markets. We
have a successful business model based on acquiring new consumers and retaining them. We also intend to invest in order to attract, retain and train talented employees who are committed to improving the health of the worlds infants and
children and who have world class capabilities in key business disciplines including marketing, sales, product development, supply chain and finance.

Continued Leadership in Innovation

Innovation is fundamental to our long-term growth and
profitability. From 2003 to 2008, we have increased our investment in research and development (R&D) by 100% and established world-class professional capabilities in our R&D headquarters and regional labs. Our R&D teams drive
the integration of nutritional science with marketing across all phases of the product development process. We believe we have a strong innovation pipeline that is focused on improving the health and development of infants and children, with a
particular focus on brain development, allergy and tolerance issues, immunity, healthy growth and improved product experience. Investments in leading systems and processes will be used to reduce cycle times for projects in our pipeline, and we are
planning to achieve a systematic flow of innovations. We believe our global R&D capabilities, the strength of our brands and our ability to convert advances in nutritional science into marketable product innovations will continue to allow us to
successfully develop new products and improve existing products across each of our product categories.

Expansion into Selected
High-Growth Geographic Markets and Adjacent Product Categories

Emerging markets in Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East are
projected to experience continued growth. We have established replicable business models and developed a deep understanding of business drivers in our core markets that we believe will lead to success in selected new high-growth markets. We believe
our global supply chain infrastructure, along with the strength of our business model and demand-creation capabilities, strategically positions us for further expansion into certain high-growth regions in which we currently have a more limited
presence. In addition, there is a global trend of mothers seeking increased nutritional reassurance, and mothers and health care professionals alike associate the Mead Johnson name and the Enfa family of brands with the highest quality nutrition. We
believe there are opportunities to extend our strong brand equities into select adjacent product categories through organic development, partnerships and acquisitions.

Continuously Improve Upon Our Manufacturing and Global Supply Chain Excellence

We seek to
continuously improve the management and operation of our business by increasing efficiency in our operations at all stages of production, from sourcing of raw materials to manufacturing and distribution in local geographies. We maintained higher
operating margins than those of our primary competitors in 2008, and we plan to continue to achieve incremental cost savings through broad-based organizational involvement.

Components of Our Net Sales and Expenses

Net Sales

Our net sales are
primarily derived from powdered milk formulated for infants and children sold to retailers and distributors. Net sales are driven by a combination of factors that include, but are not limited to: (1) the overall number of infants and children
in the geographic and demographic markets in which we operate, (2) the innovation and competitiveness of our product offering, (3) governmental regulations and economic dynamics in our markets and (4) increased consumer awareness of
the importance of health and wellness and enhanced nutritional insight. Our net sales include various adjustments including, gross-to-net sales adjustments for WIC rebates, cash discounts and sales returns.

Our financial results include net sales of rebated WIC products which represented approximately 12% of total U.S. and Puerto Rico net sales for the year
ended December 31, 2008. The WIC program is a U.S. Department of Agriculture program created to provide nutritious foods, nutrition education and referrals to health care professionals and other social services to those considered to be at
nutritional risk, including low-income pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women and infants and children up to age five. It is estimated that approximately 51% of all infants born in the United States and Puerto Rico during the 12-month period
ending December 31, 2008 benefited from the WIC program. Participation in the WIC program is an important part of our U.S. business based on the volume of infant formula sold under the program. Sales to WIC participants are primarily transacted
through the retail network at full retail price. Rebates to the state WIC agencies are payable based on the number of eligible retail purchases by WIC participants, vouchers issued and the terms of the WIC contracts.

Expenses

Our expenses are
made up of the following components:



| |  |  | Costs of products sold consist primarily of costs of materials that we use in the manufacture of our products. Historically, the cost of materials has represented a
majority of our total costs of products sold. Our materials costs are influenced by inflation and fluctuations in global commodity prices, principally dairy, agricultural oils and tinplate. Plant conversion costs including labor and overhead make up
most of the remainder of costs of products sold.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Marketing, selling and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee compensation and benefits, corporate and shared service allocations, occupancy,
third-party selling, marketing and market research services. These expenses also include distribution expenses, which are primarily comprised of warehousing and freight costs. Marketing, selling and administrative expenses are driven by business
strategy and inflation.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Advertising and product promotion expenses consist primarily of expenses related to media, samples, medical education and direct-to-consumer programs. Advertising
and product promotion expenses are driven by marketing strategy and inflation.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee compensation and benefits, clinical studies and product development costs. Research and development
expenses are driven by business strategy and the level of innovation and support for our products.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other expenses, net, consist primarily of income or loss from a third-party manufacturing contract that is non-core to our pediatric nutrition business, gains and
losses from the disposal of property, plant and equipment, the impact of certain foreign exchange gains and losses and other miscellaneous expenses.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BMS currently provides us with significant corporate and shared services functions. Our historical financial statements for all periods in this report reflect an allocation of these costs primarily within marketing,
selling and administrative expenses. These allocations include costs related to corporate and shared services functions such as executive oversight, risk management, information technology, accounting, audit, legal, investor relations, human
resources, tax, treasury, procurement, pensions and post retirement, stock based compensation and other services.

Net Sales

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased $306.0 million, or 11.9%, to
$2,882.4 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007. The percentage change in sales was driven by price increase of 8.5% and volume growth of 1.5%, and included a 1.9% positive foreign exchange impact. Net sales increased
throughout Asia, Latin America and Europe offset by a slight decline in the United States. Net sales increased in all product categories, driven by pricing increases in response to increased dairy costs, the impact of increased advertising and
promotion, regional expansion within key Asian markets, most notably China, and product innovation. Innovations launched in the period include the addition of prebiotics and an increase in the level of DHA in several of our products in Asia.
Additionally, in North America, we launched Nutramigen AA®, an amino-acid based infant formula for infants with severe food allergies. The decline in the U.S. business was
attributable to growth in private label products, due in part to the weakening economy, and the impact of WIC contract changes on our business.

We operate in two reportable segments: Asia/Latin America and North America/Europe. Our net sales based on those segments are shown in the table below:

Our Asia/Latin America segment represented 52.6% of net sales and our North America/Europe segment
represented 47.4% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2008. Asia/Latin America sales increased $291.7 million, or 23.8%, including a positive 3.2% foreign currency exchange impact, to $1,516.9 million in 2008. Growth in Asia/Latin
America was broad-based across all major markets driven by pricing increases and strong volume growth in China and Hong Kong. The net sales growth is underpinned by higher advertising and promotion supporting new product launches including the
addition of prebiotics and the increase in the level of DHA in some childrens nutrition products in Asia. In addition, we experienced a temporary increase in demand for our products in China due to the withdrawal of certain infant formula
products of other manufacturers due to the presence of melamine in certain dairy materials sourced in-country. We do not use dairy or protein-containing raw ingredients from China in our products.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, North America/Europe sales increased $14.3 million, or 1.1%,
including a positive 0.8% foreign currency exchange impact, to $1,365.5 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007. This increase was due primarily to pricing increases offset by U.S. volume losses attributable to growth in private
label products, due in part to the weakening economy, and the impact of WIC contract changes on our business.

We have three product
categories: (1) infant formula, (2) childrens nutrition and (3) other. Our net sales based on those product categories are shown in the table below:

Net sales for the period increased in each of our product categories. For the year ended
December 31, 2008, infant formula sales increased $143.5 million, or 8.0%, including a positive 1.5% foreign currency exchange impact, to $1,931.6 million compared to 2007. Growth in the sales of infant formula, which is sold in all regions,
reflects a mix of the higher growth in the Asia/Latin America segment and the lower growth in the North America/Europe segment. Childrens nutrition products, sold primarily in the Asia/Latin America segment, increased $159.4 million, or
22.9%, including a positive 3.0% foreign currency exchange impact, to $855.9 million in 2008, in line with the broad-based growth across our key Asia and Latin America markets.

We recognize revenue net of various sales adjustments to arrive at net sales as reported on the statements of earnings. These adjustments are referred to
as gross-to-net sales adjustments. The reconciliation of our gross sales to net sales was as follows:

For the year ended December 31, 2008, our gross sales increased $257.0 million, or
6.9 %, to $3,974.2 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007. Gross-to-net sales adjustments during the same period declined $49.0 million, or 4.3%, to $1,091.8 million. The decline was generated by changes in WIC rebates
in North America due to the loss of the Western States Contracting Alliance, Texas, Minnesota and Iowa WIC contracts to other infant formula manufacturers during the fourth quarter of 2007, partially offset by the gain of California and Louisiana
WIC contracts during the second half of 2007, as well as the gain of Illinois and Colorado WIC contracts during the first quarter of 2008. Sales discounts increased $21.6 million during the same period primarily in key Asia markets due to revenue
growth and a change in retail sales mix to key customers with higher discounts. Other adjustments include coupons, contract discounts and various rebates. The decrease in other adjustments was driven primarily by a decline in consumer coupons.

Costs of Products Sold

For the year ended December 31, 2008, costs of products sold increased $131.1 million, or 13.8%, to $1,079.8 million compared to the year ended
December 31, 2007. This increase was driven primarily by global material price increases. In 2007, the market volatility in material prices was mitigated partially through the contractual pricing agreements we entered into during 2006 and prior
periods. However, many of these contracts expired in late 2007, resulting in an increase in our costs of products sold in 2008. Additionally, the costs of products sold increase was driven by sales volume growth and an unfavorable foreign
exchange impact due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies. Furthermore, the cost increase as a percentage of sales was also driven by product mix changes as lower margin childrens nutrition products experienced more
rapid volume gains than higher margin infant formulas.

Marketing, Selling and Administrative Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2008, marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased $76.5 million, or 13.3%, to $651.7 million compared to
the year ended December 31, 2007. The majority of this increase was due to $41.8 million of non-recurring costs related to our initial public offering and $19.3 million of higher corporate and shared service expense allocations. The marketing,
selling and administrative expense increase was also driven by additional marketing efforts in Asia, including sales force expansion in China, and global salary and benefits increases due to inflation. Unfavorable foreign exchange impacts due to the
weakening of the U.S. dollar also drove an increase in expense. Partially offsetting these increases was the absence of a $17.6 million bad debt expense in the first half of 2007 related to a distributors insolvency in Asia.

Advertising and Product Promotion Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2008, advertising and product promotion expenses increased $50.8 million, or 15.9%, to $369.3 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007. This increase was driven in large part by a
strategic decision to increase various demand-generating activities in key Asian markets, investment in promotional programs in Mexico and by an unfavorable foreign exchange impact due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies.

Research and Development Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2008, research and development expenses increased $5.6 million, or 8.3%, to $72.8 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007. This increase was driven mainly by
increased investment in clinical and discovery trials, salary and benefits inflation and an unfavorable foreign exchange impact due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies.

Other Expensenet

For the year ended December 31, 2008, other expensenet increased $9.5 million, to $13.1 million compared to the year ended December 31,
2007. The increase was driven by the losses in 2008 on our supply agreement for our former Adult Nutrition business, which was divested in 2004, and a non-recurring gain on the 2007 divestiture of Cafcit, a pediatric pharmaceutical product.

Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes and Minority Interest

Our Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes and Minority Interest (EBITMI) are from our two reportable segments, North America/Europe and
Asia/Latin America, reduced by Corporate and Other costs. Corporate and Other costs consist of unallocated general and administrative activities and associated expenses, including in part, executive, legal, finance, information technology, human
resources, research and development, global marketing and global supply chain costs.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, Asia/Latin America EBITMI increased $99.0 million, or
27.2%, to $462.9 million. This increase was primarily driven by growth in sales and the absence of $17.6 million bad debt expense in 2007 related to a distributors insolvency, partly offset by increases in material costs. During the same
period, North America/Europe EBITMI decreased $10.3 million, or 2.2%, to $467.3 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007, driven by sales declines in the United States and increases in material costs. During the same period,
Corporate and Other costs increased $56.2 million, or 31.5%, to $234.5 million. This was principally due to $44.8 million in expenses related to our initial public offering and an increase in corporate and shared service expense allocations from
$90.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, to $112.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased from 35.2% to 38.5%, compared to the year ended
December 31, 2007. The increase in the effective tax rate was driven primarily by the capitalization in 2008 of certain initial public offering expenses for tax purposes, the benefit of certain basis differences reflected in the 2007 effective
tax rate and changes in the mix of earnings by jurisdiction.

Interest Expense

Interest expense represents interest incurred on the $2,000.0 million note payable issued in August 2008. See Item 8. Financial StatementsNote
3. Related Parties and Note 21. Subsequent Events.

Minority Interest Expense

Minority interest expenses net of taxes consist almost entirely of an 11% minority interest in our joint venture in China.

Net Earnings

For the
foregoing reasons, for the year ended December 31, 2008, net earnings decreased $28.6 million, or 6.8%, to $393.9 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2007.

Net Sales

For the year ended December 31, 2007, global net sales increased $231.3 million to $2,576.4 million compared to the year ended December 31,
2006. The percentage change in sales was driven by price of 3.4% and volume growth of 3.2%, and included a 3.3% positive foreign exchange impact. The business grew in all regions and all product categories, with strong broad-based growth across our
key Asia markets.

Net sales based on our segments are shown in the table below:

Our Asia/Latin America segment represented 47.6% of net sales and our North America/Europe segment
represented 52.4% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007. Asia/Latin America sales increased $170.6 million, or 16.2%, including a favorable 5.7% foreign currency exchange impact, to $1,225.2 million. Growth was broad-based with the
top Asian markets all showing double digit increases in net sales. During the same period, North America/Europe net sales increased $60.7 million, or 4.7%, including a positive 1.3% foreign currency exchange impact, to $1,351.2 million in 2007
compared to 2006. Sales growth was driven in the United States by a third quarter price increase and additional WIC sales from the new California contract, which was offset partially by the Texas and the Western States Contracting Alliance contract
losses and by the loss of regulatory exclusivity for Cafcit, a pediatric pharmaceutical product since divested.

product categories are shown in the table below:

##### Table of Contents

Net sales for the period increased in the infant formula and childrens nutrition product
categories. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the infant formula business increased $153.3 million, or 9.4%, including a favorable 2.4% foreign currency impact, to $1,788.1 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. We
maintained a strong position in infant formula products sold in the United States, with 5.0% growth in net sales. Childrens nutrition products, which are almost entirely sold in the Asia/Latin America segment, increased $92.7 million, or
15.4%, including a favorable 5.6% foreign currency exchange impact, to $696.5 million during the same period, primarily due to broad-based growth across our key Asian markets. The decrease in other sales was due mainly to a $17 million decline in
net sales of Cafcit, a pediatric pharmaceutical product, due to the loss of regulatory exclusivity in the fourth quarter of 2006 and its divestment in the fourth quarter of 2007.

The reconciliation of our gross sales to net sales was as follows:

For the year ended December 31, 2007, our gross sales increased $237.1 million, or 6.8%, to
$3,717.2 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. Gross-to-net sales adjustments during the same period increased $5.8 million, or 0.5%, to $1,140.8 million. This decline was largely the result of changes in WIC rebates in
North America due to the loss of Georgia and the New England and Tribal Organization WIC contracts to other infant formula manufacturers in the fourth quarter of 2006, as well as the Western States Contracting Alliance, Texas, Minnesota and Iowa WIC
contracts during the fourth quarter of 2007. These declines were partially offset by the addition of the Michigan WIC contract during the fourth quarter of 2006, as well as California and Louisiana WIC contracts during the second half of 2007. In
addition, sales discounts increased $6.5 million during the same period in key Asian markets due to a change in retail sales mix resulting in increased gross sales to key customers with higher discounts and a $5.1 million increase from a distributor
model change. Other adjustments include coupons, contract discounts and various rebates. The increase in other adjustments was driven primarily by an increase in consumer coupons.

Costs of Products Sold

For the year ended December 31, 2007, costs of products sold increased $98.3 million, or 11.6%, to $948.7 million compared to the year ended
December 31, 2006. The increase was driven by sales volume growth, dairy price increases and an unfavorable foreign exchange impact due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies. Furthermore, the cost increase as a
percentage of sales was driven by product mix changes as childrens nutrition products carry a higher cost of products sold on a percentage of sales basis as compared to infant formula.

Marketing, Selling and Administrative Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2007, marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased $70.9 million, or 14.1%, to $575.2 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. This increase was
driven by a $17.6 million bad debt expense related to a distributor insolvency, increased corporate and shared service expense allocations of $11.7 million from BMS, unfavorable foreign exchange due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus foreign
currencies and global salary and benefits inflationary increases. The increase in corporate allocations included costs related to information management and corporate insurance.

Advertising and Product Promotion Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2007, advertising and product promotion expenses increased $27.9 million, or 9.6%, to $318.5 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. This increase was driven by strategic decisions
regarding investment to support sales growth.

Research and Development Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2007, research and development expenses increased $5.2 million, or 8.4%, to $67.2 million compared to the year ended
December 31, 2006. The rate of increase reflected the full-year staffing impact of the regional development centers in Asia and Latin America.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, Asia/Latin America EBITMI increased $28.0 million, or
8.3%, to $363.9 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in EBITMI for the Asia/Latin America segment was primarily driven by a 16.2% increase in net sales during the same period, partially offset by a bad debt expense
of $17.6 million related to a distributors insolvency. For the same period, North America/Europe EBITMI increased $17.3 million, or 3.8%, to $477.6 million compared to the prior year. The increase in EBITMI for North America/Europe was
primarily driven by a 4.7% increase in net sales during the same period. For the same period, Corporate and Other costs increased $16.9 million, or 10.5%, to $178.3 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. This was due to an
increase in corporate insurance and information management expenses allocated from BMS.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2007 decreased to 35.2% from 36.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. This
reduction in the effective tax rate was driven primarily by the benefit of certain basis differences. For the year ended December 31, 2007, our provision for income taxes increased $3.5 million, or 1.5%, to $233.6 million compared to the year
ended December 31, 2006, due to higher pre-tax earnings.

Net Earnings

Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash from operations and available borrowings under our $410.0 million
revolving credit facility. Cash flows from operating activities represent the inflow of cash from our customers and the outflow of our cash for inventory purchases, operating expenses and taxes. Cash flows used in investing activities primarily
represent capital expenditure for equipment, buildings and computer software. Cash flows used in financing activities historically have represented the transfer of cash to BMS.

As an operating division, we have not reported cash or cash equivalents on our balance sheet for the periods presented. Historically, BMS has managed the
treasury relationships for receiving and disbursing cash to cover all cash flow activity from operations and investing activities. In the future, we believe that cash from operations will be sufficient to support our working capital needs, pay our
operating expenses, satisfy debt obligations, fund capital expenditures and make dividend payments. In addition, we will have $410.0 million available to us under our revolving credit facility.

Year Ended December 31, 2008 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2007

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $5.2 million to $477.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to the year ended
December 31, 2007. This increase was due to a reduction in working capital in 2008 as compared to an increase in 2007, offset by a decline in net earnings of $28.6 million which was driven by initial public offering expenses and interest costs.
The favorable change in working capital is due to increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Net cash used in investing activities increased $5.2 million to $79.4 million for the same period, due to an increase in capital expenditures and a
decrease in the proceeds from the sale of equipment and a trademark.

Year Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Year Ended
December 31, 2006

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $120.3 million to $472.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. This increase was driven by a $24.3 million increase in net earnings and an increase of $68.8 million due to a reduced build in working capital in 2007 as compared to 2006.
The favorable working capital change is due to changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses primarily due to increased commodity costs and salary and benefit accruals. Net cash used in investing activities increased $11.2 million to $74.2
million for the same period, primarily related to quality and capacity investments at our production facilities and an increase in capitalized software to support formulation management and web based sales capabilities.

Capital Expenditures

Our
capital expenditures increased $2.7 million to $81.1 million for the year ending December 31, 2008 compared to the year ended December 31, 2007, which is consistent with historical growth rates. We expect our

##### Table of Contents

capital expenditures to increase significantly in 2009 to support manufacturing and research and development capabilities as well as global software and
hardware purchases. Capital expenditures in 2009 will include the expansion of our Research and Development Technology Center.

Debt

On August 26, 2008, we declared and issued a dividend in the form of a note in an amount of $2,000.0 million bearing an annual
interest rate of 6.1% to BMS. On February 17, 2009, we restructured this note into three senior unsecured notes of $744.2 million, $500.0 million and $500.0 million, respectively. The first note, in the amount of $744.2 million, matures in
February 2014 and bears interest at a floating rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 3.0%, payable quarterly. Starting June 1, 2010 and continuing through December 31, 2013, we will make quarterly principal payments of $18.8 million. The
second note, in the amount of $500.0 million, matures in February 2016 and bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.43%, payable semiannually. This note is not subject to amortization payments. The third note, in the amount of $500.0
million matures in February 2019 and bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.91%, payable semiannually. This note is not subject to amortization payments.

In addition, we and BMS agreed that our opening cash balance at the date of the initial public offering of our stock would be $250.0 million to meet our operating requirements. The resulting debt on our balance sheet
at the time of the offering was $1,750.0 million, excluding our capital lease obligations and including $5.8 million of debt in our international subsidiaries. We believe that cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our $410.0
million revolving credit facility will be sufficient to service our debt. See Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence for further discussion.

Revolving Credit Facility Agreement

On February 17, 2009, we entered into a three-year syndicated revolving credit facility agreement (Credit Facility). The Credit Facility is unsecured and repayable on maturity in February 2012, subject to annual extensions
if sufficient lenders agree. The maximum amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit permitted at any one time under the facility agreement is $410.0 million, which amount may be increased from time to time up to $500.0 million at our
request, subject to customary conditions contained in the Credit Facility. The proceeds of the Credit Facility are to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest either at (a) LIBOR for specified interest periods plus a margin determined with reference
to our consolidated leverage ratio, or (b) a floating rate based upon JPMorgan Chase Banks prime rate, the Federal Funds rate or LIBOR plus, in each case, a margin determined with reference to our consolidated leverage ratio. The margin
on the borrowings can range from 1.125% to 2.65% over the applicable base.

Our subsidiaries may become borrowers under the Credit
Facility.

The Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including covenants applicable to us limiting liens, substantial asset sales
and mergers. Most of these restrictions are subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Credit Facility also contains the following financial covenants:



| |  |  | We are required to maintain a ratio of (a) consolidated total debt to (b) consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and
Amortization (EBITDA) of not greater than 3.25 to 1.0. Compliance with this covenant is tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter and as a condition precedent to each credit extension under the Credit Facility
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We are required to maintain a ratio of (i) consolidated EBITDA to (ii) consolidated interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00. Compliance with this
covenant is tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter for the preceding four consecutive fiscal quarters
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the Credit Facility has customary events of default, including (subject to certain
materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, material inaccuracy of representation or warranty, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, change of control, ERISA matters and cross-default to other debt
agreements.

2009 Operational Changes

The results of operations during 2009 will reflect several adjustments related to our separation from BMS, as described below.



| |  |  | Operating model changes
| | - |  | -----------------------



| |  |  | Delays in establishing new operating subsidiaries
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increases in stand-alone public company costs
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Separation costs associated with the initial public offering
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Interest expense
| | - |  | ----------------

In addition to these items that
impact 2009 results of operations, there will be several adjustments to the balance sheet related to our separation from BMS. These include the recognition of a pension liability, inclusion of cash balances and restructuring of related party debt
and divisional equity. See Item 8. Financial Statements-Note 21. Subsequent Events.

Operating Model Changes

In Europe, we will transition from using BMS to distribute our products to a third-party distributor model. This will have the effect of
reducing our net sales by the amount of the distributors margin and lowering costs for distribution-related expenses that historically have been recorded in our marketing, selling and administrative expenses. Had this model been in effect
during 2008, we estimate that sales and EBITMI would have been reduced by approximately $8.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

In
Mexico, we will operate our business through a newly formed operating subsidiary. Had this model been in effect during 2008, we estimate that employee profit sharing within the MJN operating subsidiary would have increased expenses by approximately
$3.0 million. Furthermore, a BMS subsidiary will lease to our Mexico operating subsidiary all of the property, plant and equipment at our manufacturing facility in Delicias under a 20-year lease that will be treated as a capital lease. This will
result in an increase in Interest Expense and Other Liabilities related to the lease payments.

Delays in
Establishing New Operating Subsidiaries

In Brazil, our ability to operate a new stand-alone subsidiary will be delayed for a period
of time due to certain statutory and regulatory requirements for permits and applications. Until we are able to operate as a stand-alone entity in Brazil, BMS will distribute and record sales for our products. We will conduct marketing activities
and record service revenue equal to our marketing costs plus a markup. Had this model been in effect during 2008, we estimate that our sales would have been reduced by approximately $28.0 million with a minimal impact to EBITMI.

Stand-alone Public Company Costs

MJN results historically have included corporate and shared service cost allocations from BMS. As a stand-alone company, we will build these capabilities through a combination of transition services agreements and transferred and
incremental costs. We will incur additional costs for financial reporting and compliance, corporate governance, treasury and investor relations activities. We estimate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in 2009 by
approximately $30.0 million to $36.0 million, including service charges by BMS and expenses for services not included in the transition service agreements.

Separation Costs

We have incurred in 2008 and expect to incur in 2009, separation costs in connection with the initial public offering, including costs related to legal,
accounting, systems implementation and consulting services. Our 2008 results include separation costs of $44.8 million, and we expect these costs to be approximately $29.0 million to $35.0 million in 2009.

Interest Expense

On
August 26, 2008, we issued a $2,000.0 million intercompany note to BMS and incurred interest expense of $43.3 million in 2008. In 2009, we will incur a full year of interest expense on the restructured notes. See Item 8. Financial
Statements-Note 3. Related Parties and Note 21. Subsequent Events.

Our operating lease obligations are generally related to real estate leases for manufacturing assets or offices and vehicle leases. Capital lease
obligations relate to assets utilized for interplant transportation of materials and finished goods. Purchase obligations are generally for unconditional commitments related to the purchase of materials used in manufacturing and for promotional
services. The table above does not include $17.9 million in uncertain tax positions due to the uncertainty related to the timing of the reversal of those positions.

See Item 8. Financial Statements-Note 21. Subsequent Events for discussion of various agreements entered into subsequent to December 31, 2008.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently
use off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments to hedge or partially hedge interest rate exposure nor do we currently maintain any other off-balance sheet arrangements for the purpose of credit enhancement, hedging transactions or other
financial or investment purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies

In presenting our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related
disclosures.

Some of the estimates and assumptions that we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they
pertain to future events. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical experience or on



47



---

##### Table of Contents

various other factors that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we reconsider and evaluate our estimates
and assumptions. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Future results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the critical accounting policies listed below involve our more significant judgments, assumptions and estimates and, therefore, could have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements.

For further information on our critical and other significant accounting policies, see Item 8. Financial Statements.

Basis of Presentation

Our financial statements have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of BMS, principally from statements and records representing the Mead Johnson Nutrition business. The statements of earnings also
include corporate and shared service expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically provided to us by BMS, including general corporate expenses such as executive oversight, risk management, information technology, accounting,
audit, legal, investor relations, human resources, tax and other services. These allocations were based on specific identification or the percentage of our revenues and headcount to the respective total BMS revenues and headcount. These allocations
are reflected in the statements of earnings, primarily within marketing, selling and administrative, and totaled $112.1 million, $90.1 million, and $80.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Allocation costs in prior years have been revised from previously disclosed amounts. The disclosure now excludes information management costs dedicated to MJN and includes stock based compensation and pension costs. This change in disclosure had no
impact on amounts presented in the financial statements. We consider these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense we would have incurred as a
stand-alone company. Actual costs that may have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone company in 2008, 2007 and 2006 would depend on a number of factors, including our chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed
by our employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology systems and infrastructure.

BMS has not allocated
debt or external debt interest cost to us because none of the debt recorded by BMS is directly related to our business, which is self-funding.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB)
No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by SAB No. 104, Revenue Recognition, when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized on the
date of receipt by the purchaser. Revenues are reduced at the time of recognition to reflect expected returns that are estimated based on historical experience and business trends. Additionally, provisions are made at the time of revenue recognition
for discounts, WIC rebates and estimated sales allowances based on historical experience, updated for changes in facts and circumstances, as appropriate. Such provisions are recorded as a reduction of revenue. We offer sales incentives to customers
and consumers through various programs consisting primarily of customer pricing allowances, merchandising funds and consumer coupons. The cost of these programs is recognized as incurred and recorded as a reduction of revenue.

WIC rebate accruals were $194.7 million and $197.6 million at December 31, 2008, and 2007, respectively, which are included in accrued rebates and
returns. We participate on a competitive bidding basis in nutrition programs sponsored by states, tribal governments, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories for WIC. Under these programs, we reimburse these entities for the difference
between our wholesaler list price and the contract price on eligible products. We account for WIC contract rebates by establishing an accrual in an amount equal to our estimate of WIC rebate claims attributable to a sale. We determine our estimate
of the WIC



48



---

##### Table of Contents

rebate accrual primarily based on historical experience regarding WIC rebates and current contract prices under the WIC programs. We consider levels of
inventory in the distribution channel, new WIC contracts, terminated WIC contracts, changes in existing WIC contracts and WIC participation, and adjust the accrual quarterly to reflect actual expense. Rebates under the WIC program reduced revenues
by $796.0 million, $847.8 million, and $871.9 million in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Sales
return accruals were $29.3 million and $30.7 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which are included in accrued rebates and returns. We account for sales returns in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 48, Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists, by establishing an accrual in an amount equal to our estimate of sales recorded for which the related products are expected to be returned. We determine our
estimate of the sales return accrual primarily based on historical experience regarding sales returns, but also consider other factors that could impact sales returns. Returns reduced sales by $64.7 million, $67.6 million and
$65.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Income Taxes

During the periods presented, we did not file separate tax returns, as we were included in the tax grouping of other BMS entities within the respective
entitys tax jurisdiction. The income tax provision included in the financial statements was calculated using the separate return basis, as if we were a separate stand-alone taxpayer.

The provision for income taxes has been determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred
taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in
deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial and tax basis of our assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable
income in effect for the years in which those tax attributes are expected to be recovered or paid, and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted.

Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The assessment
of whether or not a valuation allowance is required often requires significant judgment including the long-range forecast of future taxable income and the evaluation of tax planning initiatives. Adjustments to the deferred tax valuation allowances
are made to earnings in the period when such assessments are made.

With the exception of Mead Johnson-dedicated entities, we do not
maintain taxes payable to or from BMS and are deemed to settle the annual current tax balances immediately with the tax paying legal entities in their respective jurisdictions. These settlements are reflected as changes in divisional equity.

We adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation Number (FIN) No. 48, Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 on January 1, 2007. As a result of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement, we derecognized $4.8 million of previously recognized tax benefits,
which were accounted for as a decrease to the opening balance of divisional equity.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We periodically evaluate whether current facts or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our depreciable assets to be
held and used may not be recoverable. If such circumstances are determined to exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows produced by the long-lived asset, or the appropriate grouping of assets, is compared to the carrying value to
determine whether impairment exists. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on the difference between the assets fair value and its carrying value. An



49



---

##### Table of Contents

estimate of the assets fair value is based on quoted market prices in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the
estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including a discounted value of estimated future cash flows. We report an asset to be disposed of at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated net realizable value. Asset
impairment or accelerated depreciation resulting from an assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, is recorded as costs of products sold.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step process on an annual basis or when current facts or circumstances indicate that a potential impairment may exist. The first step is to identify a potential impairment, and the second step
measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is deemed to be impaired if the carrying amount of a reporting units goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. We complete our annual goodwill impairment assessment during the first
quarter and monitor for any potential impairment in the remaining quarters, neither of which indicated an impairment of goodwill in 2008, 2007 or 2006.

Other intangible assets, consisting of a trademark and computer software, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, ranging from 3 to 7.5 years. All other intangible assets are evaluated for
impairment as described in Impairment of Long-Lived Assets above.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, we are subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of our business, that cover a
wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations, product and/or environmental, health, and safety liabilities, and tax matters. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, we record accruals for
such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We, in accordance with SFAS No. 5, do not recognize gain contingencies until realized. For a discussion of
contingencies, see Item 8. Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements,for financial assets and liabilities and any other assets
and liabilities carried at fair value. This pronouncement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. On November 14, 2007, the FASB agreed to a one-year deferral
for the implementation of SFAS No. 157 for other non-financial assets and liabilities. Our adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material effect on our financial statements for financial assets and liabilities and any other assets and
liabilities carried at fair value. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this pronouncement for other non-financial assets or liabilities.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51.SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting
standards that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parents
equity. This FASB also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. Changes in a parents
ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary must be accounted for consistently, and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary must
be initially measured at fair value. This FASB statement also requires



50



---

##### Table of Contents

entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling
owners. This FASB is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as an amendment to SFAS
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 161 requires that objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. The fair value of
derivative instruments and their gains and losses will need to be presented in tabular format in order to present a more complete picture of the effects of using derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

For additional discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Item 8. Financial Statements.



|Item 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
|-------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

Inflation

The impact of inflation has affected, and will continue to affect, our operations significantly. Our
materials costs are influenced by inflation and fluctuations in global commodity prices, principally dairy, agricultural oils and tinplate. In addition, costs for construction, taxes, repairs, maintenance, insurance and media are all subject to
inflationary pressures.

Foreign Exchange Risk

We are exposed to market risk due to changes in currency exchange rates. Our primary net foreign currency translation exposures are the Chinese renminbi, the Mexican peso, the Philippine peso, the Hong Kong dollar and
the Euro. Historically, we have used derivative financial instruments indirectly through participation in the centralized hedging functions of BMS, which are designed primarily to minimize exposure to foreign currency risk. In the future, we expect
to use derivative financial instruments consistent with past use. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

We use foreign currency contracts to hedge anticipated transactions on certain foreign currencies and designate these derivative instruments as foreign currency cash flow hedges when appropriate. If the derivative is
designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the derivative is initially recorded in other comprehensive income and then recognized in our statement of earnings when the corresponding hedged item impacts our earnings. The foreign
currency derivatives resulted in losses of $0.9 million, $2.6 million, and $5.1 million in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The impact of hedge ineffectiveness on our earnings was not material.

We plan to enter into hedging and other foreign exchange management arrangements to reduce the risk of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations to the
extent that cost-effective derivative financial instruments or other non-derivative financial instrument approaches are available. Derivative financial instruments will not be used for speculative purposes. The intent of gains and losses on hedging
transactions is to offset the respective gains and losses on the underlying exposures being hedged. While we intend to mitigate some of this risk with hedging and other activities, our business will nevertheless remain subject to substantial foreign
exchange risk from foreign currency translation exposures that we will not be able to manage through effective hedging or the use of other financial instruments.



51

##### Table of Contents

Commodity Risk

We purchase certain products in the normal course of business, including dairy and agricultural oils, the costs of which are affected by global commodity
changes. Therefore, we are exposed to some price volatility related to market conditions outside of our control.

We employ various
purchasing and pricing contract techniques in an effort to minimize volatility. Generally these techniques include setting fixed prices with suppliers, such as unit pricing that is based on an average of commodity prices over a contractually defined
period of time. We do not generally make use of financial instruments to hedge commodity prices, partly because of these contract pricing techniques.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Mead Johnson Nutrition
Company

Evansville, Indiana

We have audited
the accompanying balance sheets of Mead Johnson Nutrition, a division of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (the Division), as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of earnings, comprehensive income and changes in
divisional equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 8. These financial statements and
financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Divisions management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and such financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Division is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Divisions internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mead Johnson Nutrition and subsidiaries
as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the financial statements include allocations of expenses from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company. These
allocations may not be reflective of the actual level of costs or debt which would have been incurred had the Division operated as a separate entity apart from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.

As discussed in Notes 2 and 6 to the financial statements, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation
No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, effective January 1, 2007.

MEAD JOHNSON NUTRITION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007 AND FOR
THE YEARS ENDED

DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007, AND 2006

(Dollars in millions, except Per Share Data)



|1. | ORGANIZATION
|-- | ------------

Mead Johnson Nutrition (previously
referred to as Mead Johnson Nutritionals or Division, now referred to as MJN or the Company) manufactures, distributes and sells infant formulas and other nutritional products, and operates as a
division of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (BMS). All references to BMS refer to Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, our parent company, and its consolidated subsidiaries. MJN has a broad product portfolio, which extends across routine and
specialty infant formulas, childrens milks and milk modifiers, pediatric vitamins, dietary supplements for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, and products for metabolic disorders. These products are generally sold by wholesalers and retailers
and are promoted to health care professionals, and, where permitted by regulation or policy, directly to consumers.

On February 17,
2009, Mead Johnson Nutrition Company (MJNC) completed its initial public offering (IPO). This entity now holds all the business of MJN. See Note 21Subsequent Events for more discussion.



|2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|-- | -------------------

Basis of
PresentationThe financial statements present the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of Mead Johnson Nutrition and its majority-owned-and-controlled subsidiaries. All inter-divisional transactions have been
eliminated.

These financial statements of MJN have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (U.S. GAAP). All amounts are in millions of dollars with the exception of per share data, unless otherwise stated.

The financial statements of MJN have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of BMS, principally from statements and records representing the Mead Johnson Nutrition business. These statements of
earnings also include corporate and shared service expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically provided to MJN by BMS, including general expenses related to corporate functions such as executive oversight, risk management,
information technology, accounting, audit, legal, investor relations, human resources, tax and other services. These allocations are based on specific identification or the percentage of MJNs revenues and headcount to the respective total BMS
revenues and headcount. These allocations reflected in the statements of earnings, primarily within marketing, selling and administrative, totaled $112.1, $90.1, and $80.7 for 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Allocation costs in prior years have
been revised from previously disclosed amounts. The disclosure now excludes information management costs dedicated to MJN and includes stock based compensation and pension costs. This change in disclosure had no impact on amounts presented in the
financial statements. MJN considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense MJN would have incurred as a stand-alone company. Actual costs that
may have been incurred if MJN had been a stand-alone company in 2008, 2007, and 2006 would depend on a number of factors, including MJNs chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed by MJNs employees and
strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology systems and infrastructure.

BMS has not allocated a portion of its
third-party debt interest cost to MJN. Debt is not being allocated as none of the third-party debt recorded by BMS is directly related to the MJN business, which is self-funding. BMS debt is used solely for BMS corporate purposes. On August 26,

BMS in the amount of $2,000.0, which was recorded as a reduction of divisional equity. See Note 3Related Parties. On February 17,
2009, as part of the IPO, this related party note was amended and restructured into three separate notes totaling $1,744.2 as discussed in Note 21Subsequent Events.

Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most
significant assumptions are employed in estimates used in determining values of sales rebate and return accruals, BMS allocations, income tax assets, income tax liabilities, and income tax expense as well as in estimates used in applying the revenue
recognition policy and accounting for stock-based compensation costs and retirement and postretirement benefits (including the actuarial assumptions). Actual results may or may not differ from estimated results.

Revenue RecognitionMJN recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by SAB No. 104,Revenue Recognition, when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized on the date of receipt by the
purchaser. Revenues are reduced at the time of recognition to reflect expected returns that are estimated based on historical experience and business trends. Additionally, provisions are made at the time of revenue recognition for discounts, Women,
Infants and Children (WIC) rebates and estimated sales allowances based on historical experience, updated for changes in facts and circumstances, as appropriate. Such provisions are recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company offers
sales incentives to customers and consumers through various programs consisting primarily of customer pricing allowances, merchandising funds and consumer coupons. The cost of these programs is recognized as incurred and recorded as a reduction of
revenue.

WIC rebate accruals were $194.7 and $197.6 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which are included in accrued
rebates and returns. MJN participates on a competitive bidding basis in nutrition programs sponsored by states, tribal governments, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories for WIC. Under these programs, MJN reimburses these entities
for the difference between wholesaler list price and the contract price on eligible products. The Company accounts for WIC rebates by establishing an accrual in an amount equal to the Companys estimate of WIC rebate claims attributable to a
sale. MJN determines its estimate of the WIC rebate accrual primarily based on historical experience regarding WIC rebates and current contract prices under the WIC programs. The Company considers levels of inventory in the distribution channel, new
WIC contracts, terminated WIC contracts, changes in existing WIC contracts and WIC participation, and adjusts the accrual periodically throughout the year to reflect actual expense. Rebates under the WIC program reduced revenues by $796.0, $847.8,
and $871.9 in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

Sales return accruals were $29.3 and $30.7 at
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which are included in accrued rebates and returns. The Company accounts for sales returns in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 48, Revenue
Recognition When Right of Return Exists, by establishing an accrual in an amount equal to its estimate of sales recorded for which the related products are expected to be returned. The Company determines its estimate of the sales return accrual
primarily based on historical experience regarding sales returns, but also considers other factors that could impact sales returns

Income TaxesDuring the periods presented, MJN did not file separate tax returns, as the Company was included in the tax grouping of other BMS entities within the respective entitys tax jurisdiction. The income tax
provision included in these financial statements was calculated based on a separate return-methodology, as if MJNs operations were separate taxpayers in the respective jurisdictions.

The provision for income taxes has been determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred
taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents



60



---

##### Table of Contents

income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the
financial and tax bases of the Companys assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax attributes are
expected to be recovered or paid, and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted.

Valuation allowances
are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The assessment of whether or not a valuation allowance is required often requires significant judgment including the long-range
forecast of future taxable income and the evaluation of tax planning initiatives. Adjustments to the deferred tax valuation allowances are made to earnings in the period when such assessments are made.

With the exception of MJN-dedicated entities, the Company does not maintain taxes payable to/from BMS as it is deemed to settle the annual current tax
balances immediately with the tax paying legal entities in the respective jurisdictions. These settlements are reflected as changes in divisional equity.

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation Number (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109, on January 1, 2007. As a result of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement, the Company derecognized $4.8 of previously recognized tax benefits, which was accounted for as a decrease to divisional equity.

Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents have been excluded from the financial statements. Historically, cash deposits from
the Company have been transferred to BMS, and BMS has funded the Companys disbursement accounts as required.

Inventory
ValuationInventories are stated at average cost, not in excess of market.

Capital Assets and
DepreciationExpenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized at cost. Depreciation is generally computed on a straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of
the major classes of depreciable assets are 50 years for buildings and 3 to 40 years for machinery, equipment, and fixtures. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived AssetsThe Company periodically evaluates whether current facts or circumstances indicate that the carrying
value of its depreciable assets to be held and used may not be recoverable. If such circumstances are determined to exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows produced by the long-lived asset, or the appropriate grouping of assets, is
compared to the carrying value to determine whether impairment exists. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on the difference between the assets fair value and its carrying value. An estimate of the assets
fair value is based on quoted market prices in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including a discounted value of estimated future cash flows.
The Company reports an asset to be disposed of at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated net realizable value. Asset impairment or accelerated depreciation resulting from an assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

Capitalized SoftwareCertain costs to obtain internal use
software for significant systems projects are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software, which ranges from 3 to 5 years. Costs to obtain software for projects that are not significant are expensed as incurred.

GoodwillGoodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step process on an annual basis or when current facts or
circumstances indicate that a potential impairment may exist. The first step is to identify a potential impairment, and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is deemed to be impaired if the carrying amount of a
reporting units goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company

completes its annual goodwill impairment assessment during the first quarter and monitors for any potential impairment in the remaining quarters, neither of
which indicated an impairment of goodwill in 2008, 2007 or 2006.

ContingenciesIn the normal course of business, the
Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations, shareholder lawsuits, product and/or environmental,
health, and safety liabilities, and tax matters. In accordance with SFAS No. 5,Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount
of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company, in accordance with SFAS No. 5, does not recognize gain contingencies until realized. For a discussion of contingencies, see Note 6 on Income Taxes and Note 20 on Legal
Proceedings and Contingencies.

Derivative Financial InstrumentsThe Company uses derivative financial instruments
through its participation in the centralized hedging functions of BMS, which are designed primarily to minimize exposure to foreign currency risk. BMS does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

MJN is exposed to market risk due to changes in currency exchange rates. The primary net foreign currency translation exposures are the Chinese renminbi,
the Mexican peso, the Philippine peso, the Hong Kong dollar and the Euro. Historically, MJN has used derivative financial instruments indirectly through participation in the centralized hedging functions of BMS, which are designed primarily to
minimize exposure to foreign currency risk. MJN does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Foreign
currency contracts are used to hedge anticipated transactions on certain foreign currencies and MJN designates these derivative instruments as foreign currency cash flow hedges when appropriate. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge,
the change in the fair value of the derivative is initially recorded in other comprehensive income and then recognized in our statement of earnings when the corresponding hedged item impacts our earnings. The foreign currency derivatives resulted in
losses of $0.9, $2.6, and $5.1 in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. These amounts are reflected in the statements of earnings in either costs of products sold or other expensesnet. The impact of hedge
ineffectiveness on our earnings was not material.

Shipping and Handling CostsThe Company typically does not charge
customers for shipping and handling costs. Shipping and handling costs, including warehousing expenses, were $82.9, $76.2, and $73.9 in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, and are included as marketing, selling and
administrative expenses in the statements of earnings.

Advertising CostsAdvertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Advertising expenses were $115.3, $92.9, and $81.8 in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

Research
and DevelopmentResearch and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company from time to time will enter into agreements with third parties, which gives the Company rights to ingredients owned by these parties or claims
resulting from studies, the rights to which are owned by such third parties. As a result of these agreements, the Company may be obligated to make payments to these third parties in connection with research and development contingent upon the
achievement of certain pre-determined criteria. For milestones achieved prior to regulatory approval of the product, such payments are expensed as research and development. The Company has made no milestone payments in connection with
regulatory approvals, including non-U.S. regulatory approvals and additional indications.

Earnings Per ShareFor periods prior
to the Companys IPO, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is calculated using the 170,000,000 shares of Class A and Class B common stock outstanding. The same number of shares has been used to calculate basic earnings per
share and diluted earnings per share for the periods prior to the IPO and no MJN stock options nor restricted stock were outstanding prior to the IPO.

Foreign Currency TranslationThe statements of earnings of the Companys foreign
subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates for the period. The net assets of the Companys foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. The U.S. dollar
effects that arise from translating the net assets of these subsidiaries at changing rates are recorded in the foreign currency translation adjustment account, which is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Recently Issued Accounting StandardsEffective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue
No. 07-3,Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use in Future Research and Development Activities. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future
research and development activities should be deferred and capitalized. Such amounts should be recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed, or when the goods or services are no longer expected to be
provided. The Companys adoption of EITF No. 07-3 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.

In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in
the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages, this statement requires recognition of identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the non-controlling interest in
the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair values. This statement also requires the fair value of acquired in-process research and development to be recorded as indefinite lived intangibles, contingent consideration to be recorded on the
acquisition date, and restructuring and acquisition-related deal costs to be expensed as incurred. In addition, any excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over purchase price and any subsequent changes in estimated contingencies are to be
recorded in earnings. This statement applies to business combinations occurring in 2009.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company
adopted FASB SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements, for financial assets and liabilities and any other assets and liabilities carried at fair value. This pronouncement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value
and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. On November 14, 2007, the FASB agreed to a one-year deferral for the implementation of SFAS No. 157 for other non-financial assets and liabilities. The Companys adoption of SFAS
No. 157 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial statements for financial assets and liabilities and any other assets and liabilities carried at fair value. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact
of adopting this pronouncement for the other non-financial assets or liabilities.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB
SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, which permits an entity
to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by allowing entities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by the measurement of related
assets and liabilities using different attributes, without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Under SFAS No. 159, entities that elect the fair value option (by instrument) will report unrealized gains and losses in earnings at
each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option election is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. SFAS No. 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements to help financial statement users understand the effect of the
entitys election on its earnings, but does not eliminate disclosure requirements of other accounting standards. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value must be displayed on the face of the balance sheet. The Company chose not to
elect the fair value option for its financial assets and liabilities existing at January 1, 2008, and did not elect the fair value option on financial assets and liabilities transacted during 2008. Therefore, the adoption of SFAS No. 159
had no impact on the Companys financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent
be clearly identified, labelled



63

##### Table of Contents

and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parents equity. This FASB also requires the
amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. Changes in a parents ownership interest while the parent
retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary must be accounted for consistently, and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary must be initially measured at fair
value. This FASB also requires entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. This FASB is effective for fiscal years beginning on or
after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as an amendment to SFAS No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities. SFAS No. 161 requires that objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. The fair value of derivative instruments and their gains and losses will need to be
presented in tabular format in order to present a more complete picture of the effects of using derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The
Company will provide enhanced disclosures as required upon effective date of this pronouncement.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN
No. 48, which, in the case of the Company, was effective as of January 1, 2007. FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS
No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN No. 48 requires that all tax positions be evaluated using a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements are recorded as adjustments to income taxes payable or receivable, or adjustments to deferred taxes, or
both. FIN No. 48 also requires expanded disclosure at the end of each annual reporting period, including a tabular reconciliation of unrecognized tax benefits. The Company adopted FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007. As a result of the
adoption of this accounting pronouncement, the Company derecognized $4.8 of previously recognized tax benefits, which was accounted for as a decrease to divisional equity. In May 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FIN
No. 48-1, Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48, which is effective retroactively to January 1, 2007. FSP FIN No. 48-1 provides guidance on how to determine whether a tax position is effectively settled
for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. The adoption of FSP FIN No. 48-1 did not have any effect on the Companys financial statements.



|3. | RELATED PARTIES
|-- | ---------------

These financial statements include
transactions with affiliated companies. MJN entered into transactions with BMS and its subsidiaries for the sale of inventory, services provided to and received from BMS pharmaceutical divisions in various markets worldwide, as well as corporate
services provided by BMS for the financial statement periods presented. Product transfers from BMS to MJN were made at various transfer prices.

The Company had no sales to related parties in 2008, 2007, or 2006. Purchases from BMS and its subsidiaries amounted to $27.0, $23.2, and $17.8 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, and relate to goods
and services. Additionally, MJN allocated charges of $19.6, $21.6, and $17.9 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, to BMS in various markets worldwide, and was allocated charges of $20.2, $18.4, and $10.8 for the
years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively from BMS. The charges were for services that included occupancy, distribution, promotion, sales force and other administration. Charges were allocated either to MJN from BMS or from
MJN to BMS, depending on the location and if the MJN company was the host business in that location. Occupancy costs were allocated based on square meters occupied; the other charges were generally based on headcount or level of



64

activity. Management considers these market allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided.

The statements of earnings, primarily within marketing, selling and administrative, include allocated corporate and shared services expense allocations
from BMS totaling $112.1, $90.1, and $80.7 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. These costs are primarily related to BMSs corporate administrative services to the Company, and are generally allocated based
on either the ratio of MJNs annual net sales or headcount to BMSs comparable consolidated net sales or headcount. Allocation costs in prior years have been revised from previously disclosed amounts. The disclosure now excludes
information management costs dedicated to MJN and includes stock based compensation and pension costs. This change in disclosure had no impact on amounts presented in the financial statements. Management believes that this allocation method is
reasonable. Corporate expenses allocated include accounting, treasury, finance, tax, human resources, legal, and certain other administrative services. Management considers such allocations have been made on a reasonable basis, but may not, however,
reflect the expense MJN would have incurred as a stand-alone company. Actual costs which may have been incurred if MJN had been a stand-alone company in 2008, 2007, and 2006 would depend on a number of factors, including how the Company chose to
organize itself, what, if any, functions were outsourced or performed by MJN employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology systems and infrastructure.

On August 26, 2008, MJC declared and issued a dividend in the form of a 10-year intercompany note to BMS in the amount of $2,000.0, which was
recorded as a reduction of divisional equity. The outstanding principal of the note bears interest at an annual rate of 6.1% and interest payments must be settled no less than annually. Both the outstanding principal and accrued interest were due on
demand for payment to BMS, and could have been prepaid by the Company at any time without premium or penalty. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $43.3.

On February 17, 2009, at the time of the MJNs IPO, this related party note was amended and restructured into three separate notes totaling
$1,744.2 as discussed in Note 21Subsequent Events. Since these notes are now payable in more than one year, the $2,000.0 note is classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2008.

BMS uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing its operations. During the periods covered by these financial statements, cash deposits
were remitted to BMS on a regular basis and are reflected within divisional equity in the financial statements. Similarly, MJNs cash disbursements were funded through BMSs cash accounts. As a result, none of BMSs cash, cash
equivalents or liabilities pertaining to book overdrafts have been allocated to MJN in the financial statements.



|4. | EARNINGS PER SHARE
|-- | ------------------

On February 10, 2009,
immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, the separation of MJNs business from BMS (Separation) was finalized. Prior to the IPO, MJN had 170,000,000 shares of Class A and Class B common stock outstanding, all of which
were owned by BMS. This amount was used to calculate the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the periods presented.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

|6. | INCOME TAXES

During the periods presented, MJN did
not file separate tax returns, as it was included in the tax grouping of other BMS entities within the respective entitys tax jurisdiction. The income tax provision included in these financial statements was calculated using the separate
return basis, as if MJN was a separate stand-alone taxpayer. With the exception of MJN-dedicated entities, the Company did not maintain taxes payable to or from BMS as it is deemed to settle the annual current tax balances immediately with the tax
paying legal entities in their respective jurisdictions. These settlements are reflected as changes in divisional equity.

Effective Tax RateMJNs provision for income taxes in the years ended December 31,
2008, 2007, and 2006 was different from the amount computed by applying the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate to earnings before income taxes and minority interest, as a result of the following:

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2008, increased from 35.2% to 38.5%
compared to the year ended December 31, 2007. The increase in the effective tax rate was driven primarily by the capitalization in 2008 of certain initial public offering expenses for tax purposes, the benefit of certain basis differences
reflected in the 2007 effective tax rate and changes in the mix of earnings by jurisdiction.

The Company has negotiated a tax holiday
under which certain profits in the Netherlands are exempt from taxation through the year ending December 31, 2009.

Valuation AllowanceThe components of current and noncurrent deferred income tax assets (liabilities) were:

$(1.6), $8.0, and $5.9 in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The valuation allowance relates to foreign NOLs that are not
expected to be realized because they are based upon a hypothetical stand alone carve out structure that will not exist after restructuring for an IPO.

Income taxes paid were $227.8, $228.0, and $236.4 in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

The MJN operations do not maintain any cash or cash equivalents; rather, all earnings are immediately distributed to BMS. Accordingly, there are no unremitted earnings in foreign subsidiaries for which there might be
a future tax consequence upon repatriation. However, cumulative translation adjustments on foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than U.S. Dollar resulted in deferred tax liabilities of $16.6 and $23.1 at December 31, 2008
and 2007, respectively. Further basis differences arose due to the qualification of repatriated earnings as return of capital for tax purposes, resulting in deferred tax liabilities of $33.1 and $27.9 at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.

The Company adopted the provisions of FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007, resulting in the derecognition of $4.8 of
previously recognized tax benefits which was accounted for as a decrease to the opening balance of divisional equity. A reconciliation of the Companys changes in uncertain tax positions from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007 and
January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008 is as follows:

The uncertain tax benefits as of December 31, 2008 are recorded against the Companys
deferred tax assets to the extent the uncertainty directly related to that asset; otherwise they are recorded as either current or noncurrent income tax payable. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately $17.6 and $14.3, respectively, of
noncurrent income tax payable was included in other liabilities on the balance sheet.

As of December 31, 2008, the Company had no
uncertain tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty as to the timing of such deductibility.

The amounts of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate were $11.7 and $10.3 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Company classifies interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. These amounts are reflected separately on the
reconciliation above.

The Company, under the assumption of a separate taxpayer, is considered under examination by a number of tax
authorities, including all of the major tax jurisdictions listed in the table below, which have unrecognized tax benefits for issues such as transfer pricing, certain tax credits and the deductibility of certain expenses. The Company estimates that
it is reasonably possible that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2008 will decrease approximately $0.3 in the next twelve months as a result of the anticipated effective settlement of certain tax audits for the
jurisdictions listed below. Such settlements may involve the payment of additional taxes, the adjustment of certain deferred taxes and/or the recognition of tax benefits. The Company also anticipates that it is reasonably possible that new issues
will be raised by tax authorities who may require increases to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits; however, an estimate of such increases cannot be made. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for all open tax years by tax
jurisdiction under FIN No. 48.

The Company under the assumption of a separate tax return preparer files income tax returns in the
U.S. Federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is assumed to be

subject to U.S. Federal, state and local, and non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities. The following is a summary of major tax jurisdictions for
which tax authorities may assert additional taxes against the Company based upon tax years currently under audit and subsequent years that will likely be audited. After the IPO, the management of these and other tax audits relating to tax years
prior to the tax year in which the IPO took place, together with the liability for tax, interest and penalties, if any, rests with BMS.

|7. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
|-- | ----------------------

As discussed in
Note 2, Accounting Policies, MJN adopted SFAS No. 157, as amended by FSP 157-2, on January 1, 2008. Consistent with the deferral in FSP 157-2, the Company has not applied SFAS No. 157 to nonfinancial assets and
liabilities that are recorded on a nonrecurring basis. Such assets and liabilities include those measured at fair value in goodwill impairment testing, asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value, and nonfinancial long-lived
asset impairment assessments as well as those initially measured at fair value in a business combination.

When determining fair value, SFAS
No. 157 requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. SFAS No. 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for prioritizing the inputs and the hierarchy places greater emphasis on the
use of observable market inputs and less emphasis on unobservable inputs. The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

Level OneValues based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level TwoValues based on quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in inactive markets for identical assets and liabilities, and inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable
for the asset or liability but corroborated by market data.

Level ThreeValues based on inputs that cannot be
corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. Valuation techniques could include the use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The Company does not currently have any
instruments with fair value determined using level three inputs.

MJN has various financial instruments that must be measured under the new
fair value standard including certain derivatives instruments. We currently do not have non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

MJN utilizes the market approach for valuing financial instruments. According to SFAS No. 157, the market approach utilizes prices and
information generated by market transactions involving identical or similar assets and liabilities. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value
measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may
affect the classification of fair value assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. MJNs financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from level two of the fair value hierarchy.

|13. | DIVISIONAL EQUITY (DEFICIT)
|--- | ---------------------------

For 2008, MJN operated
as a division of BMS. Accordingly, certain operating, financing, and investing activities of MJN are funded through interdivisional transactions with BMS and other operating divisions and subsidiaries. The accompanying balance sheets reflect these
amounts in divisional equity (deficit).



|14. | EMPLOYEE STOCK BENEFIT PLANS
|--- | ----------------------------

BMS sponsors the
following employee stock plans in which certain employees of MJN participate. Expense recognized for the stock-based compensation plans resulted in an increase of divisional equity (deficit).

Employee Stock PlansOn May 1, 2007, BMS stockholders approved the BMS 2007 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the BMS 2007
Plan). The BMS 2007 Plan replaced the BMS 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the BMS 2002 Plan) that expired on May 31, 2007. The BMS 2007 Plan provides for 42 million new shares of common stock reserved for delivery to
participants, plus shares remaining available for new grants under the 2002 Plan and shares recaptured from outstanding awards under the 2002 Plan. Only the number of shares actually delivered to participants in connection with an award after all
restrictions have lapsed will be counted against the number of shares reserved. Shares tendered in a prior year to pay the purchase price of options and the number of shares previously utilized to satisfy withholding tax obligations upon exercise
continue to be available and reserved.

Under the BMS 2007 Plan and the BMS 2002 Plan, executive officers and key employees of MJN may be granted
options to purchase BMSs common stock at no less than 100% of the market price on the date the option is granted. Options generally become exercisable in installments of 25% per year on each of the first through the fourth anniversaries
of the grant date and have a maximum term of 10 years. Generally, BMS issues shares for the stock option exercises from treasury stock. Additionally, the plans provide for the granting of stock appreciation rights whereby the grantee may surrender
exercisable rights and receive common stock and/or cash measured by the excess of the market price of the common stock over the option exercise price.

The BMS 2007 Plan and the BMS 2002 Plan provide for the granting of common stock to key employees, subject to restrictions as to continuous employment. Restrictions generally expire over a four-year period from date
of grant. Compensation expense is recognized over the restricted period. During the first quarter of 2007, BMS began granting restricted stock units instead of restricted stock. A stock unit is a right to receive stock at the end of the specified
vesting period. A stock unit has no voting rights.

The BMS 2007 Plan and the BMS 2002 Plan also incorporate long-term performance awards
which are delivered in the form of a target number of performance shares and have a three-year cycle. For 2008 to 2010 and 2007 to 2009, the awards have annual goals set at the beginning of each performance period and are based 50% on earnings
per share and 50% on sales. Maximum performance will result in a maximum payout of 165% for the 2008 to 2010 award and 220% for the 2007 to 2009 award. In addition, a one-time special performance award was granted for the 2008 to 2010
performance period. This special performance award has annual goals, set at the beginning of each performance period, based 50% on pre-tax operating margin and 50% on operating cash flow. Maximum performance will result in a maximum payout of 165%.
The goals for the 2005 through 2007 and the 2006 through 2008 awards are set for the three year period and are based 50% on cumulative earnings per share and 50% on cumulative sales, with the ultimate payout modified by BMSs total stockholder
return versus the 11 companies in its proxy peer group. Maximum performance for all three measures will result in a maximum payout of 253% of target. If threshold targets are not met for the performance period, no payment will be made under the
plan.

Under the Team Share Stock Option Plan, which terminated on January 3, 2005, full-time MJN employees, excluding key executives,
were granted options to purchase BMSs common stock at the market price on the date the options were granted. Individual grants generally became exercisable evenly on the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the grant date and have a maximum
term of 10 years.

The results of operations for MJN for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS
No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which includes the impact of expensing stock options. BMS and MJN have elected the alternative method as provided in FSP No. 123(R)-3, Transition Election Related To Accounting For The Tax Effects
of Share-Based Payment Awards, in determining BMSs pool of excess tax benefits. The following table summarizes MJNs stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options, restricted stock and long-term performance awards
for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006:

Transferred shares are shares attributable to employees that transferred to or from other BMS
divisions.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted under BMS plans to employees of the Company during the years
ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006 was $4.74 per share, $5.89 per share, and $4.39 per share, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised by the Companys employees for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007,
and 2006 was $0.0, $2.6, and $2.2, respectively. As of December 31, 2008, there was $6.8 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested BMS stock options granted to the Companys employees. The cost is expected to be
recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.57 years.

Stock Option ValuationThe fair value of employee stock options
granted in 2008 were estimated on the date of the grant and prior to January 1, 2007, were estimated using a weighted-average estimated per option value granted, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:



|                        |  |              |   |  |         |   |  |         |

|                        |  | December 31, |  
|                        |  | 2008         |   |  | 2007    |   |  | 2006    |  
|Expected volatility     |  | 31.1         | % |  | 28.9    | % |  | 26.7    | %
|Risk-free interest rate |  | 3.3          | % |  | 4.7     | % |  | 4.6     | %
|Dividend yield          |  | 4.3          | % |  | 4.5     | % |  | 4.8     | %
|Expected life           |  | 6.7 yrs      |   |  | 6.2 yrs |   |  | 6.3 yrs |  

The expected volatility assumption required in the Black-Scholes model was calculated using a
10-year historical volatility of the BMS stock price and weighting it equally against the derived implied volatility. The selection of the blended historical and implied volatility approach was based on BMSs assessment that this calculation of
expected volatility is more representative of future stock price trends than using only historical volatility.

The risk-free interest rate
assumption is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield assumption is based on BMSs history and expectation of dividend payouts.

The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is a derived
output of the lattice-binomial model. The expected life of employee stock options is impacted by all of the underlying assumptions and calibration of BMSs model. The lattice-binomial model assumes that MJN employees exercise behavior is a
function of the options remaining vested life and the extent to which the option is in-the-money. The lattice-binomial model estimates the probability of exercise as a function of these two variables based on the entire history of exercises
and cancellations on all past option grants made to MJN employees.

Stock-based compensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest. Forfeitures were
estimated based on historical experience at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Restricted StockThe fair value of nonvested shares of BMSs common stock granted to MJN employees is determined based on the average trading price of BMSs common stock on the grant date.

A summary of restricted share activity related to MJN employees follows:

Transferred shares are shares attributable to employees that transferred to or from other BMS
divisions.

As of December 31, 2008, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to BMS nonvested restricted stock and BMS
restricted stock units granted to Company employees is $11.5. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.77 years. The total fair value of BMS shares and BMS share units granted to Company employees that vested during
the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006 was $4.2, $1.6, and $0.3, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of restricted stock awards/units granted to Company employees during the years ended December 31, 2008,
2007, and 2006 was $21.91, $26.92, and $23.31, respectively.

Long-Term Performance AwardsSince the adoption of SFAS
No. 123(R), the fair value of the 2006 through 2008 performance award was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model due to a market condition. The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables that
determine the probability of satisfying each market condition stipulated in the award grant and calculates the fair market value for the long-term performance awards. For the 2008 to 2010 and 2007 to 2009 performance awards, because these awards do
not contain a market condition, the fair value was based on the closing trading price of BMSs common stock on the grant date.

The
valuation model for the 2006 through 2008 award used the following assumptions:



|           |  |            |  |                                     |  |                        |  |

Weighted-average expected volatility is based on the three year historical volatility levels on
BMSs common stock. Expected dividend yield is based on BMSs historical dividend payments. Risk free interest rate reflects the yield on five year zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds, based on the performance shares contractual term.
The fair value of the performance awards is amortized over the performance period of the award.

At December 31, 2008, there were
61,932 shares outstanding and total unrecognized compensation cost was $0.9 related to awards granted to MJN employees under the BMS performance share plan, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.73 years.

Accuracy of Fair Value EstimatesMJNs determination of fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using an
option-pricing model is affected by BMSs stock price as well as assumptions

regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to BMSs expected stock price volatility
over the term of the awards, and actual and projected MJN employee stock option exercise behaviors. Option-pricing models were developed for use in estimating the value of traded options that have no vesting or hedging restrictions and are fully
transferable. Because MJNs employee stock options have certain characteristics that are significantly different from traded options, and because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value, in
managements opinion, the existing valuation models may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of MJNs employee stock options. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with SFAS
No. 123(R) and Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment, using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market
transaction.



|15. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK CONCENTRATION
|--- | --------------------------------------------

The
Companys financial instruments consist primarily of accounts receivable, accounts payable and derivative financial instruments.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the large number of customers in the Companys business customer base and their dispersion across different geographic areas. The Company maintains an
allowance for losses based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable.

The Company is exposed to market risk due to changes
in currency exchange rates. The Company had exposures to net foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities of $407.7 and $379.3 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, primarily in Mexico, Europe, Thailand, Philippines and China. The
Companys primary net foreign currency translation exposures are the Chinese renminbi, the Mexican peso, the Philippine peso, the Hong Kong dollar and the Euro.

MJN utilizes foreign currency contracts to hedge anticipated transactions, primarily intercompany transactions. These instruments are managed on a centralized basis to efficiently net exposures and thus take advantage
of any natural offsets. Derivative financial instruments are not used for speculative purposes. BMS designates these instruments as foreign currency cash flow hedges when appropriate. The effects of the hedges, including any discontinued or

hedge ineffectiveness gain (loss) was $0.5 for the year ended December 31, 2008, and $0.0 for the two years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. In addition, SFAS No. 133 requires that BMS or the Company discontinue cash flow hedge
accounting if the forecasted transaction is not expected to occur on the original forecasted date or 60 days thereafter. For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 the impact of discontinued hedges was gains (losses) of $0.8, $(0.4),

|16. | SEGMENT INFORMATION
|--- | -------------------

MJN operates in four
geographic operating segments: North America, Latin America, Asia and Europe. This operating segmentation is how the chief operating decision maker regularly assesses information for decision making purposes, including allocation of resources. Due
to similarities in the economics, products offered, production process, customer base, and regulatory environment, these operating segments have been aggregated into two reportable segments: North America/Europe and Asia/Latin America.

Corporate and Other costs consist of unallocated general and administrative activities and associated expenses, including in part, executive, legal,
finance, information technology, human resources, research and development, global marketing costs, global supply chain and certain facility costs. Corporate and Other assets primarily consist of a global production facility.

The Companys products are sold principally to the wholesale and retail trade, both nationally and internationally. One customer (including its
related entities) accounted for 13%, 15% and 16% of the Companys gross sales for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

|19. | EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
|--- | -----------------

PensionsA majority
of employees of MJN were participants in various defined benefit pension plans as well as postretirement plans administered and sponsored by BMS. Benefits under the pension plans are based primarily on years of service and employees
compensation. The other postretirement plans provide associates with health care and life insurance benefits upon retirement. Pension entitlements are funded by contributions by BMS to a separately administered pension fund.

These financial statements reflect the plans on a multi-employer basis in accordance with SFAS No. 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions,as amended by SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 does not have an impact on the pension and postretirement plans for MJN as they are
accounted for under a multi-employer plan. MJN has specifically identified the pension expense attributable to MJN participants for the pension plans in the Philippines, Indonesia and the Netherlands. For the pension plans in the U.S., Canada,
Taiwan and Mexico, costs associated with the pension plans have been allocated to MJN on the basis of pensionable wages. The SFAS No. 87 expense for MJN employees participating in the above mentioned pension plans was $19.4, $21.1, and $25.0
for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

MJN offers defined contribution plans to eligible employees in
the U.S. whereby employees contribute a portion of their compensation, which is partially matched by MJN. The Company matches 75% of these contributions up to 6% of the employees base pay. Once the contributions have been paid, MJN has no
further payment obligations. The contributions to the U.S. 401(k) plan totaled $5.5, $5.0, and $4.6 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, which are recognized as expense as incurred.

Other Post Retirement PlansThe Company also provides comprehensive medical and group life benefits for substantially all U.S. retirees who
elect to participate in its comprehensive medical and group life plans. The medical plan is contributory. Contributions are adjusted periodically and vary by date of retirement. The life insurance plan is non-contributory. Plan assets consist
principally of equity and fixed-income securities. Similar plans exist for employees in certain countries outside of the U.S. These financial statements reflect the plans on a multi-employer basis in accordance with SFAS No. 106,
Employers Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. As such, BMS allocated costs associated with the medical and life plans to MJN based upon a ratio of participant headcount. The amount of SFAS No. 106 expense
allocated to MJN from BMS for MJN employees participating in the U.S. and Canadian BMS medical and life plans was $2.0, $1.6, and $1.8 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

MJN offers medical continuation and income replacement benefits to employees on long-term disability in the U.S. and Canada. These financial statements
reflect the plans on a multi-employer basis in accordance with SFAS No. 112, Employers Accounting for Postemployment Benefits. For the Long Term Disability (LTD) medical continuation benefits in the U.S., BMS allocated
costs associated with the LTD medical continuation benefits to MJN based upon a ratio of the Postemployment Benefit Obligation. For the LTD income replacement benefits in the U.S., BMS allocated expense based on an allocation rate times base salary.
The allocation rate represents the percentage required to recoup the full income replacement liability. The amount of SFAS No. 112 expense allocated to MJN from BMS for MJN employees participating in the U.S. BMS LTD medical continuation and
income replacement plans was $1.1, $0.6, and $1.4 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.



|20. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES
|--- | -----------------------------------

In the
ordinary course of business, MJN is subject to periodic lawsuits, investigations and claims, including, but not limited to, product liability claims, commercial disputes, premises claims and employment and environmental, health, and safety matters.
Although MJN cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against the Company, MJN does not believe any currently pending legal proceeding to which MJN is a party will have a material adverse
effect on the Companys business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

The Companys facilities and operations are subject to various environmental, health, and safety
laws and regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which MJN operates. Among other things, these requirements regulate the emission or discharge of materials into the environment, the use, management, treatment, storage and disposal of solid and
hazardous substances and wastes, the control of combustible dust, the reduction of noise emissions and fire and explosion risks, the cleanup of contamination and the prevention of workplace exposures and injuries. Pollution controls and various
permits and programs are required for many of the Companys operations. Each of MJNs global manufacturing facilities undergoes periodic internal audits relating to environmental, health, and safety requirements and the Company incurs
operating and capital costs to improve the Companys facilities or maintain compliance with applicable requirements on an ongoing basis.

From time to time, the Company may be responsible under various state, Federal and foreign laws, including the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), for certain costs of investigating and/or
remediating contamination at the Companys current or former sites, and/or at waste disposal or reprocessing facilities operated by third parties. Liability under CERCLA and analogous state or foreign laws may be imposed without regard to
knowledge, fault, or ownership at the time of the disposal or release. Most of the Companys facilities have a history of industrial operations, and contaminants have been detected at some of the Companys facilities. The Company also has
been named as a potentially responsible party, or is involved in investigation and remediation, at three third-party disposal sites. As of December 31, 2008, management believes that those future site costs which were probable and
reasonably estimable, as well as any related accruals, are not material.

We are also occasionally a party to environmental proceedings and
other matters. For example, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) investigates industrial and commercial facilities throughout the United States that use refrigeration equipment containing ozone-depleting substances
(ODS) and is responsible for enforcing compliance with regulations governing the prevention, service and repair of leaks (ODS requirements). In 2004, the EPA sent Mead Johnson a request for information regarding compliance
with ODS requirements at our facility in Evansville, Indiana. We responded to the request in June 2004, and, as a result, identified potential violations at the Evansville facility. In addition, BMS performed a voluntary corporate-wide audit at all
of its facilities, including the Mead Johnson facilities, in the United States that use ODS-containing refrigeration equipment. The audit report that BMS submitted to the EPA in November 2004 identified potential violations of ODS requirements at
several facilities, including two potential administrative violations of ODS requirements at our Zeeland, Michigan facility. In July 2008, BMS (acting on behalf of BMS and Mead Johnson) and EPA entered into a proposed consent decree, which requires
BMS to retire or retrofit by July 2009 certain industrial refrigeration equipment at five facilities, including Evansville, Indiana. Under the proposed consent decree, BMS is also required to pay $0.1 in civil penalties, a de minimis portion of
which is attributable to Mead Johnson and will be paid by BMS. Mead Johnson believes that it does not have any material obligations remaining under the proposed consent decree. It is possible that we may have additional obligations, or additional
costs may be imposed on us, if the proposed consent decree does not become final or is otherwise modified before being finalized by the court.

The Company is not aware of any pending litigation or significant financial obligations or liabilities arising from current or former operations or properties that are likely to have a material adverse impact on the Companys business,
financial position or results of operations. Liabilities or obligations, which could require the Company to make significant expenditures, could arise in the future, however, as the result of, among other things, changes in, or new interpretations
of, existing laws, regulations or enforcement policies, claims relating to on- or off-site contamination, or the imposition of unanticipated investigation or cleanup obligations.

Separation Activities and
Related Agreements

Initial Public OfferingOn February 17, 2009, Mead Johnson Nutrition Company (MJNC)
completed the IPO of 34,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $24.00 per share. The net proceeds from the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and estimating offering expenses, were $782.3.



80



---

##### Table of Contents

All of the net proceeds of the IPO were paid to BMS and were used to (i) repay in full approximately
$597.0 of the foreign intercompany notes payable to subsidiaries of BMS and (ii) satisfy payables and other obligations owing to one or more subsidiaries of BMS that would have been otherwise forgiven or reduced in full.

Immediately following the IPO, including the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option, there were 76,844,571 outstanding shares of
Class A stock and 127,655,429 outstanding shares of Class B stock. The holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock generally have identical rights, except that holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per
share while holders of Class B common stock are entitled to ten votes per share on all matters voted upon by stockholders (including the election and removal of directors) and do not have cumulative voting rights. Of the outstanding Class A and
Class B common stock, BMS beneficially owned 42,344,571 shares of Class A common stock and all of the Class B common stock, or 83.1% of the total outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock (representing 97.5% of the combined
voting power of the Companys common stock), and 34,500,000 shares of Class A common stock, or 16.9% of the total outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock, have been distributed to the public.

Notes PayableOn August 26, 2008, MJC, now a wholly owned subsidiary of MJNC, issued a $2,000.0 intercompany note to BMS. On
February 17, 2009, this related party note payable was amended and restructured into three separate notes described below:



| |  |  | $744.2 aggregate principal amount note due 2014 (the 2014 Note);
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $500.0 aggregate principal amount note due 2016 (the 2016 Note); and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $500.0 aggregate principal amount note due 2019 (the 2019 Note and, together with the 2014 Note and the 2016 Note, the Notes).
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 2014 Note will mature on the fifth anniversary of its issuance. The 2014 Note bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus
3.0% per annum, payable in cash in quarterly installments. The 2014 Note is subject to the following amortization schedule:



| |  |  | No amortization in 2009;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | Annual amortization of $75.0 payable in cash in quarterly installments in 2010-2014; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The remaining principal amount payable in cash on the maturity date.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------

The 2016 Note will mature on the seventh anniversary of its issuance. The 2016 Note bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.43%, payable in
cash in semi-annual installments. The 2016 Note is not subject to amortization.

The 2019 Note will mature on the tenth anniversary of its
issuance. The 2019 Note bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.91%, payable in cash in semi-annual installments. The 2019 Note is not subject to amortization.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of MJC and rank equally in right of payment with each other and with all existing and future senior unsecured
indebtedness of MJC. The Notes effectively rank junior to any secured indebtedness of MJC. In addition, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities of the subsidiaries of MJC, including trade payables.

The Notes may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. Each Note will be mandatorily prepayable in cash upon a change of
control, in an amount equal to 100% of the then outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

BMS will not be permitted
to transfer the Notes to other persons, other than its affiliates.

Separation Activities



| |  |  | BMS formed MJN Restructuring Holdco, Inc. (MJNR) in August 2008.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | Also in August 2008, through a series of steps, Mead Johnson & Company, which directly or indirectly holds substantially all of the U.S. assets, became a
wholly owned subsidiary of MJNR.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During the fourth quarter of 2008, new entities were formed as direct and indirect subsidiaries of MJNR in numerous non U.S. jurisdictions through which we intend
to conduct our business in those jurisdictions in the future.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On December 17, 2008, BMS formed MJNC as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary. MJNC and MJNR had the same direct parent company, which was another wholly owned
subsidiary of BMS.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On January 31, 2009, BMS transferred to MJNR the non-U.S. businesses of MJN through a sale of shares, sale of assets and contributions of stock with some
exceptions as described below. The consideration for these transfers was in the form of cash, which was contributed or otherwise provided by BMS, and the issuance by MJNRs subsidiaries of foreign intercompany notes to BMS subsidiaries related
to the purchase of assets or shares in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Netherlands and the Philippines.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The terms of these foreign intercompany notes were substantially similar, except that the principal amount of each note varied by jurisdiction. The aggregate
principal amount of the foreign intercompany notes was approximately $597.0 and the rate of interest per annum on each note was equal to LIBOR plus 0.75%. These foreign intercompany notes were repaid in full on February 17, 2009 with the net
proceeds to the IPO.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On February 10, 2009, MJNR merged with and into MJNC, with MJNC remaining as the surviving entity. Therefore, MJNC now holds all of the businesses acquired by
MJNR.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Transitional Services Provided by BMSOn January 31, 2009, MJNR and MJNC entered into a
Transitional Services Agreement with BMS whereby BMS agreed to provide MJNR with various corporate support services (the BMS Services) and MJNC agreed to provide BMS with certain services (the MJN Services). The Transitional
Services Agreement became operative on January 31, 2009 and the BMS Services and the MJN Services will continue for a specified initial term, which will vary with the types of services to be provided, unless earlier terminated or extended according
to the terms of the transitional services agreement. MJNC pays BMS mutually agreed-upon fees for the BMS Services and BMS pays MJNC mutually agreed-upon fees for the MJN Services. By term, the annual cost to MJNC is $19.3 for up to eighteen months,
$66.4 for eighteen months up to three years, and $2.9 for greater than three years. The annual net cost to BMS is $23.6, the majority of which is up to eighteen months.

Mexico Capital LeaseOn January 31, 2009, Mead Johnson Nutricionales de Mexico, S. De R.L. de C.V., a subsidiary of MJNC, entered into an agreement with BMS to lease all of the property, plant and
equipment assets at the manufacturing facility in Delicias, Mexico for 20 years. This facility is included in the financial statements of the Company for all periods prior to the separation. The lease qualifies as a capital lease, and MJN will
continue to carry the plant, property and equipment in the financial statements. The Company will also record a lease liability of $41.5, representing the present value of the minimum lease payments set forth by the lease agreement, and will
amortize this liability over the lease term.

China Services AgreementOn February 10, 2009, MJNC entered into a services
agreement (the MJN China Services Agreement) with BMS pursuant to which BMS has agreed to cause MJN China to operate in a manner that is consistent with the instructions and directions of MJNC. In return, MJNC will provide all necessary
support and access to assets and resources, including intellectual property, for BMS to cause MJN China to operate in a manner consistent with MJNCs instructions and directions. This support will include management oversight, supply chain
management and general stewardship of MJN Chinas business. The agreement provides so that MJNC will be entitled to the cash flow, benefit and risk of MJN Chinas operations and business, and will continue to consolidate MJN China as a
variable interest entity under FIN No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.

Tax Matters AgreementEffective February 10, 2009, MJNR entered into a tax matters
agreement to allocate the responsibility of BMS and its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and MJNC and its subsidiaries, on the other hand, for the payment of taxes resulting from filing (i) tax returns on a combined, consolidated or unitary basis
and (ii) single entity tax returns for entities that have both Mead Johnson and non-Mead Johnson operations.

Pursuant to this tax
matters agreement, BMS will prepare returns for MJNC for all periods during which MJNC or any of its subsidiaries are included in a combined, consolidated or unitary group with BMS or any of its subsidiaries for federal, state, local or foreign tax
purposes, as if MJNC itself were filing as a consolidated, combined or unitary group. BMS will also prepare returns for MJNC for all periods during which a single entity tax return is filed for an entity that has both Mead Johnson and non-Mead
Johnson operations. MJNC will make payments to BMS and BMS will make payments to MJNC with respect to such returns, as if such returns were actually required to be filed under the laws of the applicable taxing jurisdiction and BMS were the relevant
taxing authority of such jurisdiction. If and when MJNC and its subsidiaries cease to be included in BMSs consolidated tax returns, BMS will compensate MJNC for tax attributes for which MJNC was not previously compensated and that BMS used,
and MJNC will reimburse BMS for tax attributes for which MJNC was previously compensated but that BMS never used.

Employee Matters
AgreementOn January 31, 2009, MJNR entered into an employee matters agreement with BMS. The employee matters agreement governs BMSs, MJNCs and the parties respective subsidiaries and affiliates rights,
responsibilities and obligations after this offering with respect to:



| |  |  | employees and former employees (and their respective dependents and beneficiaries) who are or were associated with BMS, MJNC or the parties respective
subsidiaries or affiliates;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the allocation of assets and liabilities as it relates to certain employee benefit, pension, welfare, compensation, employment, severance and termination-related
matters; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other human resources, employment and employee benefits matters.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------

Defined Benefit, Supplemental Retirement and Indemnity PlansThe employee matters agreement provides for the transfer from the BMS qualified defined benefit pension plan in the United States to a Mead
Johnson qualified defined benefit pension plan in the U.S., with assets and liabilities allocable to the participants transferring to MJNC based on assumptions set forth in the employee matters agreement. Outside of the United States, BMS
transferred to MJNC defined benefit plans pension assets and liabilities allocable to the employees transferring to MJNC in certain countries as described in the employee matters agreement. MJNC assumed liabilities allocable to employees
transferring to MJNC under certain pension, supplemental retirement and termination indemnity plans. The net obligation to be transferred is estimated to be between $40.0 and $50.0.

Defined Contribution PlansThe employee matters agreement provides for the transfer from the U.S. BMS qualified defined contribution plan to
a U.S. Mead Johnson qualified defined contribution plan, with assets and liabilities allocable to the participants transferring to the U.S. Mead Johnson qualified defined contribution plan. Outside of the United States, BMS will transfer to
MJNCs defined contribution plans assets allocable to the employees transferring to MJNC in certain countries as described in the employee matters agreement. MJNC also assumed supplemental benefit plan liabilities allocable to employees
transferring to MJNC as set forth in the employee matters agreement. In addition, MJNC has formed certain new retirement plans.

MJN
2009 Stock Award and Incentive PlanIn December 2008, the MJNC Board approved the MJN 2009 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (MJN 2009 Plan). The MJN 2009 Plan provides for the grant of options to purchase MJNC Class A common
stock intended to qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, stock units, stock granted as a bonus or in lieu of another award, dividend
equivalents, other stock-based awards and performance awards. Executive officers and other employees of MJNC or one of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and non-employee directors and others who provide substantial services to us, are eligible to be
granted awards under the MJN 2009 Plan. Under the MJN 2009 Plan, 25 million shares of MJNC have been reserved for delivery to participants.

2009 Founders AwardsOn February 11, 2009, MJNC granted approximately 350,000
restricted stock units as founders awards to approximately 140 of MJNs employees, including each of MJNCs Named Executive Officers. These founders awards will vest in equal installments on each of the third,
fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant. The value of these founders awards was tied to each employees grade level.

Additional Intercompany NoteOn January 31, 2009, Mead Johnson Venezuela S.C.A., a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of MJNC issued a note in the local currency equivalent of $5.8 aggregate principal amount payable to
Bristol-Myers Squibb de Venezuela S.C.A., a wholly owned subsidiary of BMS. This note will (i) mature in 2014, (ii) require no amortization payments, (iii) be prepayable at MJNCs option and (iv) bear interest at a fixed
rate of approximately 24% per annum.

Credit RevolverOn February 17, 2009, MJNC entered into a three-year syndicated
revolving credit facility agreement. The credit facility is unsecured and provides for borrowings and letters of credit up to $410.0.

Long-Term Supply Agreement

MJN entered into a long-term supply agreement on January 16, 2009, and effective as
of January 1, 2010. The agreement is a ten year contract, with an exit clause after five years, and contains a minimum volume purchase commitment of $55.1 for infant formula base product for the initial five-year period, beginning 2010.

|Item 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|-------- | -----------------------

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the company (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), we have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a -15(e))
as of December 31, 2008. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

This Annual Report does not include a report of managements assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the companys registered public accounting firm due to
a transition period established by the rules of the SEC for newly public companies.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the companys internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter ended
December 31, 2008, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the companys internal control over financial reporting.



|Item 9B. | OTHER INFORMATION
|-------- | -----------------

The MJN Board has approved the
following benefit plans pursuant to which certain of our key employees, including certain Named Executive Officers, now participate. These plans are intended to mimic benefits that were provided by BMS prior to our initial public offering under
similar plans. Below is a brief description of the material terms of each of these plans:

MJN Benefit Equalization
PlanRetirement Plan

The Mead Johnson & Company Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Plan (MJN BEP-RP) is a
supplemental defined benefit pension plan that provides retirement income for certain of our employees in excess of the benefits payable under the Mead Johnson & Company Retirement Plan (MJN Retirement Plan), which is a tax-qualified
defined benefit pension plan. Effective as of February 9, 2009, Mead Johnson assumed the obligations to pay, under the MJN BEP-RP, all benefits accrued under the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Plan with respect to all of our
regular full-time employees who were active participants in the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Plan as of February 8, 2009. Eligible participants in the MJN Retirement Plan accrue benefits under the MJN BEP-RP going forward.

The MJN Retirement Plan is a partially frozen plan and limits the extent to which additional years of service and compensation increases
from Mead Johnson will be recognized for purposes of determining benefits under the MJN Retirement Plan. Specifically, service after February 9, 2009 will not be recognized for purposes of determining benefit accruals under the MJN Retirement
Plan, but such service will be recognized for purposes of (i) vesting in unvested benefits, (ii) eligibility for early retirement and (iii) Rule of 70 benefits. Furthermore, compensation increases after February 9,
2014 will not be taken into account in determining a participants benefits under the MJN Retirement Plan. These limits also apply to benefits pursuant to the MJN BEP-RP.

The benefit under the MJN BEP-RP is calculated using the same formula as the MJN Retirement Plan, which is based on the employees final average
compensation and years of service, but without the limits on

compensation and benefits imposed under Section 401(a)(17) and Section 415(b) of the Code and, for purposes of calculating final average
compensation, by using the cash award earned by a participant for the relevant calendar year under our annual performance incentive plan, regardless of when such award is actually paid. The MJN BEP-RP also has the same vesting provisions as the MJN
Retirement Plan. The pension benefit under the MJN BEP-RP is paid as a cash lump sum or, if an election is made at least 12 months prior to retirement, the lump sum may be credited to the MJN Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Savings Plan or
paid in installments.

The MJN BEP-RP is unfunded, with payments made from the general assets of Mead Johnson. The MJN BEP-RP can be
terminated by the MJN Board at any time, subject to the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, and can also be amended at any time so long as such amendment does not eliminate or reduce previously accrued benefits.

MJN Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Savings Plan

The Mead Johnson & Company Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Savings Plan (MJN BEP-RSP) is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that allows certain of our employees to defer a portion of their
base salary and to receive matching contributions from Mead Johnson in excess of contributions allowed under the Mead Johnson & Company Retirement Savings Plan (MJN Savings Plan), which is a tax qualified defined contribution plan.
Employees who participate in the Mead Johnson performance incentive plan or whose pay or benefits exceed the IRS qualified plan limits are eligible for the MJN BEP-RSP. Effective as of February 9, 2009, Mead Johnson assumed the obligations to
pay, under the MJN BEP-RSP, all benefits accrued under the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanSavings Plan with respect to all of our employees who were active participants in the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanSavings Plan as of
February 8, 2009. Eligible participants in the MJN Savings Plan accrue benefits under the MJN BEP-RSP going forward.

Contributions to
the MJN BEP-RSP begin once the employees total base salary paid for the year exceeds the limit under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code or total contributions to the MJN Savings Plan exceed the limits under Section 415(c) of the
Code. The contribution limits and matching contribution amounts are the same as under the MJN Savings Plan except that, as described above, such amounts are not limited by the Sections 401(a)(17) and 415(c) of the Code. The vesting provisions are
the same as under the MJN Savings Plan. Investment alternatives are the same as those offered under the MJN Savings Plan, except that the MJN BEP-RSP does not permit investment in a Mead Johnson company stock fund. The employees full balance
under the MJN BEP-RSP is paid following termination of employment, or, if an election is made at least 12 months prior to termination, the payments may be deferred until a later date, no sooner than five years following the termination date.

The MJN BEP-RSP is unfunded, with payments made from the general assets of Mead Johnson. The MJN BEP-RSP can be terminated by the MJN
Board at any time, subject to the restrictions imposed by Section 409A of the Code, and can also be amended at any time so long as such amendment does not eliminate or reduce previously vested amounts.

MJN Key International Pension Plan

The Mead Johnson Key International Pension Plan (MJN KIPP) is a supplemental defined benefit pension plan that provides retirement income for certain of our employees who are or were on international assignment outside their home countries.
Effective as of February 1, 2009, Mead Johnson assumed the obligations to pay, under the MJN KIPP, all benefits accrued under the Bristol-Myers Squibb Key International Pension Plan (BMS KIPP) with respect to key employees of Mead Johnson who
were active participants in the BMS KIPP as of January 31, 2009. The MJN KIPP is a continuation and successor plan to the BMS KIPP with respect to all such benefits accrued prior to February 1, 2009 by such employees, and no new
participants will be admitted to the MJN KIPP after February 1, 2009. The MJN KIPP is a partially frozen plan and accordingly, a participants years of service with Mead Johnson and future compensation increases will only increase benefit
accruals under the MJN KIPP for limited purposes, as described below.



87



---

##### Table of Contents

The benefit under the MJN KIPP is calculated based on the employees Final Average Salary (as
described below) and years of service. The key plan provisions are as follows:



| |  |  | The monthly retirement benefit equals:
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | 1.75% x Final Average Salary x years of service with BMS credited under the BMS KIPP (but without regard to any service with Mead Johnson beginning on
February 1, 2009), minus,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The monthly Social Security benefits amounts attributable to employer contributions, minus,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Certain other employer benefits payable to the participant, minus,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The actuarial equivalent of any severance payments payable to the participant that exceed the severance benefits that would be paid to the participant under Mead
Johnsons U.S. severance plan.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Final Average Salary equals the employees average annual compensation in the five consecutive years out of the last ten in which such employees
compensation was the highest. Compensation equals the base salary rate, plus bonuses paid during the year. However, under the MJN KIPP, Final Average Salary will not take into account any compensation increases occurring after February 1, 2014.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Normal retirement age is 65. Employees are eligible for early retirement at age 55 with 10 or more combined years of service with BMS and Mead Johnson.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Employees eligible for early retirement may receive their pension without any reduction at age 60. The pension is reduced by 4% for each year that the retirement
age precedes age 60.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Employees with at least 10 combined years of service with BMS and Mead Johnson who are involuntarily terminated and eligible for severance and whose age plus
combined years of service with BMS and Mead Johnson equals or exceeds 70 are entitled to begin collecting their pension benefits upon such termination, subject to execution of a general release and certain reductions in benefits based on age.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Employees are 100% vested after attaining five combined years of service with BMS and Mead Johnson.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The pension is payable as a monthly life annuity, with or without survivor benefits, or a lump sum.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The MJN KIPP also contains a replication program, which replicates as closely as legally and administratively practicable the retirement benefits that a
participant would have been entitled to receive under his or her home country plans had he or she continued to be eligible to participate in such plans while employed. In addition, the MJN KIPP contains a supplemental program, which applies Final
Average Salary increases through February 1, 2014, for purposes of determining the benefits of participants in certain foreign defined benefit plans that have been frozen.

The MJN KIPP is unfunded, with payments made from the general assets of Mead Johnson. No amendment to the plan will be effective unless it is for the
exclusive benefit of the participants and their designated joint pensioners, and no such amendment may directly or indirectly deprive either of any benefits accrued prior to such amendment. The MJN Board may terminate the MJN KIPP, in whole or in
part, for any reason and at any time.

The foregoing descriptions of these plans are summaries of their material terms, do not purport to
be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each of the plans filed as Exhibits 10.31, 10.32 and 10.33 to this report.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Mr. Leemputte, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, currently serves as a director of Beazer Homes and as the chairman of its audit
committee. Beazer Homes was the subject of an SEC investigation to determine whether it had violated any federal securities laws. Beazer Homes settled the investigation on September 24, 2008, with no charges brought against it. Beazer Homes is
also the subject of pending investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice and other state and federal agencies. Mr. Leemputte is a named defendant in a pending derivative shareholder lawsuit, which also names Beazer Homes as a nominal
defendant and alleges that the defendants violated state and federal laws, including violations of the Exchange Act, breached their fiduciary duties to Beazer Homes shareholders and committed abuse of control, waste of corporate assets and
unjust enrichment, also arising from the same alleged actions that led to the SEC investigation.

Composition of our Board of Directors

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Currently seven of our directors are either employed by Mead
Johnson or its parent company, BMS, and therefore, they are not considered independent under the NYSE rules. Four of our directors (Dr. Steven M. Altschuler, Howard B. Bernick, Peter G. Ratcliffe, and Robert S. Singer) are independent, as defined by
the applicable rules of the NYSE. The directors have discretion to increase or decrease the size of the board of directors.

We are a
controlled company as set forth in the corporate governance rules of the NYSE. Accordingly, we do not have, and are not required to have, a majority of independent directors on our board of directors nor do we have, nor are
we required to have, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors as defined under the rules of the NYSE. The controlled company exception does not
modify the independence requirements for the audit committee, and we have an audit committee made up of three independent directors.

Communication with
our Board of Directors

Stockholders and other interested parties wishing to contact one or more of our directors, including the
non-management directors as a group, may do so by sending a letter to [Name of Director(s)], c/o Corporate Secretary, 2400 West Lloyd Expressway, Evansville, Indiana 47721-0001. Any such correspondence will be forwarded to the appropriate director
or directors for review.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The members of each committee have been appointed by the board of directors and
will serve until their successor is elected and qualified, unless they are earlier removed or resign.

Audit Committee

We have an audit committee that consists of three directors who are not affiliated with either us or BMS. The committee is
responsible for, among other things:



| |  |  | overseeing managements maintenance of the reliability and integrity of our accounting policies and financial reporting and our disclosure practices;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | overseeing managements establishment and maintenance of processes to assure that an adequate system of internal control is functioning;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|-------- | ----------------------

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our executive officers whose compensation is discussed in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A), and who we
refer to as our Named Executive Officers for purposes of this Annual Report, are:



| |  |  | Stephen W. Golsbyour President and Chief Executive Officer, who served as our President during 2008.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Peter G. Leemputteour Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Charles M. Urbainour President, Asia and Europe, who served as our Senior Vice President, North America, Latin America and Europe during 2008.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Peter Kasper Jakobsenour President, Americas, who served as our Senior Vice President, Asia Pacific during 2008.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Dirk H. Hondmannour Senior Vice President, Global Research and Development.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to our initial public offering, we were wholly owned by BMS, and so BMS has been primarily responsible for determining our historical compensation
strategy. The Compensation and Management Development Committee (BMS Compensation Committee) of BMSs board of directors (BMS Board) approved the 2008 compensation arrangements for Mr. Golsby and the new
compensation arrangements for Mr. Leemputte when he was hired in September 2008, while the BMS Salary and Bonus Committee (BMS S&B Committee) and the BMS executives involved with the BMS Compensation Planning Process, described
below, approved the 2008 compensation arrangements for Messrs. Jakobsen, Urbain and Hondmann. As it related to our Named Executive Officers prior to our initial public offering, the BMS S&B Committee was comprised of BMSs Chief Executive
Officer, its Senior Vice President of Human Resources and its Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Worldwide Pharmaceuticals. Since the information presented in the compensation tables of this Annual Report relates to our 2008
fiscal year, this CD&A describes the compensation programs and decisions of BMS, the BMS Compensation Committee, the BMS S&B Committee and the results of the BMS Compensation Planning Process that are material to understanding the
information shown in the tables. Unless otherwise indicated below, the compensation philosophy, strategy and decisions that were applicable to us and our Named Executive Officers for 2008 were substantially consistent with the compensation
philosophy, strategy and decisions that were generally applicable to BMS for 2008.

In connection with our initial public offering, our
board of directors (MJN Board) formed its own compensation committee (MJN Compensation Committee), which is now responsible for determining our executive compensation strategy. For descriptions of the MJN Compensation
Committee, see Committees of the Board of DirectorsCompensation Committee above and MJN Compensation Committee below.

Introduction

This CD&A aims to explain how BMSs compensation program is designed and how it operated with respect
to our Named Executive Officers prior to our initial public offering. This CD&A first describes BMSs executive compensation philosophy and how BMS designed its compensation program as it relates to our Named Executive Officers, with a
discussion focusing on the main components of its compensation program. We then detail the process for, and analyze the determinations made prior to our initial public offering with respect to, the 2008 compensation of our Named Executive Officers.
Subsequently, we discuss individual arrangements with our Named Executive Officers and other benefits that are provided to them. We then describe several of BMSs key corporate governance policies covering executive compensation. Finally, we
discuss how our compensation program is currently structured and describe certain compensation-related actions taken by the MJN board of directors and MJN Compensation Committee.

Impact of New Strategy on 2008 Compensation Program

In connection with BMSs strategy to transform into a next-generation biopharmaceutical company, BMS implemented several changes to its 2008
compensation program, including:



| |  |  | The use of a cash flow measure for determining annual incentives;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A special one-time performance share award for all BMS executives (including each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Leemputte), which is tied to
three-year productivity transformation goals; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The elimination of the following corporate perquisites for BMS employees: personal air travel, company car, financial counseling, tax preparation and tickets to
sporting and cultural events.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Executive Compensation Philosophy

BMSs executive compensation philosophy is based on two core elements: (1) to pay for performance and (2) to provide a competitive
compensation package. Each of these elements is described below.

Pay for Performance

BMS structures its compensation program to align the interests of its senior executives with the interests of BMSs stockholders. BMS believes that
an employees compensation should be tied directly to helping BMS achieve its mission and deliver value to its stockholders. Therefore, a significant part of each executives pay depends on his or her individual performance measured
against financial and operational objectives as well as meeting key behavioral standards. BMS also believes that a significant amount of compensation should be at risk. A substantial portion of an executives compensation, therefore, is in the
form of equity awards that tie the executives compensation directly to creating stockholder value and achieving financial and operational results.

Competitive Pay

BMS believes that a competitive compensation program is an important tool to
help attract and retain talented employees capable of leading its business in the highly complex and competitive business environment in which BMS operates. BMS aims to pay its executives at approximately the median level of pay of BMSs peer
group when targeted levels of performance are achieved. By providing compensation that is competitive with BMSs peer companies, BMS reduces the risk that its executives can be recruited away.

BMSs compensation program is also designed with the following principles in mind:



| |  |  | To pay employees equitably relative to one another based on the work they do, the capabilities and experience they possess and the performance they demonstrate;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | To promote a non-discriminatory work environment that enables BMS to leverage the diversity of thought that comes with a diverse workforce;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | To motivate executives to deliver high performance; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | To continue to focus on good corporate governance practices by implementing compensation best practices and corporate policies, several of which are described in
greater detail under Corporate Governance Policies Covering Executive Compensation.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Compensation Program Design

This section will explain how BMS has determined the design of the 2008 executive compensation program as it relates to our Named
Executive Officers.

Role of the BMS Compensation Committee

The BMS Compensation Committee is generally responsible for determining the executive compensation strategy and philosophy for the entire BMS
organization. Furthermore, the BMS Compensation Committee reviews and approves individual compensation packages for the most senior executives of BMS. Prior to our initial public offering, Mr. Golsby was the head of a major division within BMS,
and therefore, BMS considered him one of its most senior executives. Accordingly, the BMS Compensation Committee was responsible for approving his individual compensation for 2008. In addition, the BMS Compensation Committee reviewed and approved
the initial compensation arrangements for Mr. Leemputte, as well as his sign-on equity awards, because of the acceleration provisions contained in the vesting schedule relating to those awards, as described under Special
Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Leemputte. In the case of compensation for individuals below the most senior level, the BMS Compensation Committee delegated certain authority to members of BMS management to make determinations in
accordance with guidelines established by the BMS Compensation Committee. In some cases, compensation below the most senior level was determined by the BMS S&B Committee. In other cases, such compensation was determined by a process described
below, which we refer to for purposes of this CD&A as the BMS Compensation Planning Process. Also, the BMS Compensation Committee reviewed and approved 2008 annual incentive award payouts to each of our Named Executive Officers, as
described under Annual Incentive Awards below.

Interaction between BMS Executive Officers and the BMS Compensation
Committee

BMS management plays a significant role in BMSs executive compensation program. BMSs Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer are involved in setting the business goals that are used as the performance goals for the annual and long-term incentive programs, subject to BMS Compensation Committee approval. In this respect, BMSs Senior Vice
President of Human Resources works closely with the BMS Compensation Committee, its compensation consultant and BMS senior management to (i) ensure that the BMS Compensation Committee is provided with the appropriate information to make its
decisions, (ii) propose recommendations for BMS Compensation Committee consideration and (iii) communicate those decisions to BMS senior management for implementation.

Role of the BMS S&B Committee and the BMS Compensation Planning Process

The primary role of the BMS S&B Committee is to make determinations regarding compensation for executives below the most senior level in the event of
hiring, promotion or transfer to another division within BMS. The BMS S&B Committee is generally not responsible for the regular compensation planning process for these executives. Instead, regular compensation planning (including regular annual
base salary merit increases and annual equity award grants) for executives below the most senior level (as well as for BMSs non-executive employees) occurs through the BMS Compensation Planning Process. The BMS Compensation Planning Process is
a process pursuant to which managers review the compensation of their direct reports and make recommendations regarding changes to their compensation, such as annual base salary merit increases. Members of the BMS management team at successively
higher grade levels then review those recommendations until the Chief Executive Officer of BMS ultimately conducts his own review. In most cases, BMSs Chief Executive Officer reviews compensation recommendations on an aggregate basis, but he
also reviews the individual compensation of a select group of executives. The 2008 compensation for each of our Named Executive Officers (except for Mr. Leemputte, who was a new hire in 2008) was determined through the BMS Compensation Planning
Process in a manner that is typical of the process that BMS uses to determine compensation for other executives of similar levels. However, as noted above, Mr. Leemputtes initial compensation arrangements were reviewed and approved by the
BMS Compensation Committee. Also, following the completion of the 2008 BMS Compensation Planning Process cycle, the BMS Compensation Committee reviewed and approved 2008 annual incentive award payouts to each of our Named Executive Officers,
described under Annual Incentive Awards below.

Role of the BMS Compensation Consultants

The BMS Compensation Committee has retained Mercer Incorporated (Mercer) as its compensation consultant since October of 2002. Mercer reports
directly to the BMS Compensation Committee and the BMS Compensation Committee directly oversees the fees paid for services provided to the BMS Compensation Committee. The BMS Compensation Committee instructs Mercer to give advice to the BMS
Compensation Committee independent of management and to provide such advice for the benefit of BMS and its stockholders. Mercer assisted the BMS Compensation Committee by providing the following services in 2008:



| |  |  | Participated in the design and development of BMSs executive compensation program;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Provided competitive benchmarking and market data analysis;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------

BMS management also engaged Frederic W. Cook & Co. to assist in designing our post-offering compensation program, as described in more detail
below under Our Post-Offering Compensation Program. In addition, because Mr. Leemputte was hired with the expectation that he would serve as our Chief Financial Officer following our initial public offering, Frederic W.
Cook & Co. provided input regarding the initial compensation arrangements for Mr. Leemputte at the time of hire.

BMS
Peer Group Analysis

BMSs executive compensation program seeks to provide total compensation, when targeted levels of
performance are achieved, at the median of the pay levels provided by a designated peer group of U.S. companies. Specifically, BMS targets the competitive pay median on two levels: (1) total cash compensation (base salary plus annual target
bonus) and (2) total direct compensation (total cash compensation plus the value of long-term incentives). BMS uses competitive median pay levels to maintain its compensation program guidelines on an annual basis (i.e., its salary structure,
the leveling of its positions, its annual target bonus levels and its long-term incentive award guidelines). BMS also uses competitive pay levels to help in determining individual pay decisions (i.e., base salary levels, the size of salary
adjustments and the size of long-term incentive awards). Paying at the competitive median when targeted levels of performance are achieved allows BMS to attract and retain the talent it needs to run its business while also enabling it to maintain a
competitive cost base with respect to compensation expense.

For 2008, BMSs peer group consisted of the following companies:



|                      |  |                            
|--------------------- |  | ---------------------------
|Abbott Laboratories   |  | Merck & Co., Inc.          
|Amgen Inc.            |  | Pfizer Inc.                
|Eli Lilly and Company |  | Schering-Plough Corporation
|Johnson & Johnson     |  | Wyeth                      

BMS believes this peer group is appropriate given the unique nature of the
pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry. We note that the companies in BMSs peer group vary in size, but BMS does not believe that company size should be a primary factor in determining BMSs peer group. Instead, BMS believes emphasis
should be placed on whether a company competes directly with BMS for unique pharmaceutical/biotechnology talent. The companies in BMSs peer group represent BMSs primary competitors for executive talent and operate in a

similarly-complex regulatory and research-driven environment. BMS monitors the composition of its peer group regularly and will make changes when
appropriate. BMS believes it is critical to pay at a competitive level relative to this peer group in order to attract and retain the talent BMS needs; therefore, for 2008, BMS targeted compensation for its executives, including our Named Executive
Officers, at the median of its peer group.

Prior to our initial public offering, BMSs management conducted an annual review of the
compensation for Messrs. Golsby, Urbain, Jakobsen and Hondmann using compensation data and analysis provided by the BMS Global Compensation department. Since our initial public offering, the compensation arrangements for our Named Executive Officers
have been determined by the MJN Compensation Committee, as described under MJN Compensation Committee.

Determining the Individual
Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers for 2008

BMSs executive compensation program, as it related to our Named Executive
Officers, is designed to provide value to the executive based on the extent to which (i) individual performance, (ii) BMS performance versus annual budgeted financial targets, (iii) longer-term financial performance and
(iv) total return to BMS stockholders (stock price appreciation plus dividends) meet, exceed or fall short of expectations. BMS believes this approach, with its emphasis on long-term compensation, serves to focus the efforts of its executives
on the attainment of sustained long-term growth and profitability for the benefit of BMS and its long-term stockholders. All elements of executive compensation are reviewed both separately and in the aggregate to ensure that the amount and type of
compensation is within appropriate competitive parameters and the program design encourages the creation of long-term stockholder value.

|When determining the individual award levels for base salary merit increases, annual incentive awards, stock option awards and restricted stock unit awards for our
Named Executive Officers prior to our initial public offering, the BMS executives involved with the BMS Compensation Planning Process gave equal weight to performance measured against financial and operational objectives that are linked to
BMSs business strategy and total stockholder return (Results) and an executives demonstration of the values and behaviors defined in the BMS Pledge and Core BMS Behaviors (Behaviors). The Pledge can be found in the About Us

BMS Performance Management System

The BMS Performance Management System involves an annual review and assessment of all executives, including, for 2008, our Named Executive Officers, to
measure individual performance over the course of the previous year against preset financial and operational performance goals. The system assists in ensuring that each executives compensation is tied to the financial and operational
performance of BMS, to BMSs stockholder return and to the executives demonstration of the Core BMS Behaviors and the values embodied in the BMS Pledge.

The annual review and assessment under the BMS Performance Management System is generally conducted in the first quarter of the year following the relevant performance year. The annual review and assessment process
under the BMS Performance Management System took place in the first quarter of 2008 in order to determine 2008 base salary merit increases and 2008 stock option and restricted stock unit awards for our Named Executive Officers (other than
Mr. Leemputte), as described under Base Salaries, Stock Option Awards and Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Payout levels pursuant to the 2008 annual incentive awards, as described under
Annual Incentive Awards below, were reviewed and approved by the BMS Compensation Committee in February 2009 and are reflected in the tables below. The process for assessing the performance of each of our Named Executive Officers
under the BMS Performance Management System for 2008 is described below:



| |  |  | Stephen W. Golsby: For 2008, BMSs Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Worldwide Pharmaceuticals, who was Mr. Golsbys
first-level manager during 2008, conducted the

| | assessment of Mr. Golsby under the BMS Performance Management System and made recommendations concerning his compensation to BMSs Chief Executive
Officer. BMSs Chief Executive Officer reviewed these recommendations and then made recommendations to the BMS Compensation Committee regarding Mr. Golsbys compensation. Due to Mr. Golsbys role prior to our initial public
offering as the head of a major division within BMS, the BMS Compensation Committee approved Mr. Golsbys compensation for 2008.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Peter G. Leemputte:Mr. Golsby, who is Mr. Leemputtes first-level manager, conducted the 2008 assessment of Mr. Leemputte under the BMS
Performance Management System and made recommendations concerning his compensation to BMSs Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer for Worldwide Pharmaceuticals. BMSs Chief Executive Officer also reviewed and approved these
recommendations on an individual basis.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Charles M. Urbain: For 2008, individual decisions with respect to the assessments under the BMS Performance Management System and the compensation of
Mr. Urbain were made by the BMS S&B Committee and through the BMS Compensation Planning Process. Pursuant to the BMS Compensation Planning Process, Mr. Golsby, who is Mr. Urbains first-level manager, reviewed the 2008
compensation of Mr. Urbain, and BMSs Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Worldwide Pharmaceuticals approved it. In addition, due to his job level during 2008, BMSs Chief Executive Officer reviewed and approved
Mr. Urbains compensation on an individual basis.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Peter Kasper Jakobsen: The process for 2008 with respect to Mr. Jakobsen was substantially similar to the process for Mr. Urbain.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Dirk H. Hondmann:The process for 2008 with respect to Mr. Hondmann was substantially similar to the process for Mr. Jakobsen, except that
BMSs Chief Executive Officer did not review Mr. Hondmanns compensation on an individual basis.

Listed
below are the key performance results against the 2008 performance objectives for each of our Named Executive Officers. The BMS executives involved in the BMS Compensation Planning Process used these results as the basis for making individual
compensation decisions for 2008, as detailed below.

The

LOGO

This target mix supports the core elements of BMSs executive compensation philosophy by emphasizing
long-term incentives while providing competitive short-term components. The 2008 mix reflects the mix of compensation components for the respective divisional levels of our Named Executive Officers within BMS. In the paragraphs that follow, we
explain how each of these components is set and describe certain changes BMS made to these components in 2008. BMS implemented the changes noted to provide for the continued alignment of BMSs compensation program with the core elements of its
compensation philosophy. In addition, the following paragraphs describe the specific pay decisions that were made in 2008 with respect to the Named Executive Officers.

Base Salaries

Base salaries are a tool used both to keep BMS competitive and help BMS retain
talent. The base salaries of BMS executives are set based primarily upon the pay levels of comparable positions within BMSs peer group and the unique qualifications and experience of the individual executives. Merit increases for these
executives are determined based upon both the performance of an individual and the size of BMSs merit increase budget in a given year. The BMS Compensation Committee reviews results of surveys that forecast what other companies salary
increase budgets will be. The BMS Compensation Committee typically sets the annual salary increase budgets based upon the median of such forecasts. Salary adjustments are also typically granted when executives assume significant increases in
responsibility.

Messrs. Golsby and Urbain received merit increases in April 2008 and Messrs. Jakobsen and Hondmann received merit
increases in July 2008 based on their individual performance of Results and Behaviors, as described under Determining the Individual Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers for 2008, and their relative market position. These
increases ranged from 4% to 5% and were within the guidelines established for all employees based upon competitive benchmarking. Mr. Leemputte was not eligible for a merit increase during 2008 because he was hired in September 2008.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the BMS S&B Committee granted base salary increases to Messrs. Urbain and Jakobsen,
effective January 1, 2009. In the case of Mr. Urbain, this increase was granted in connection with his promotion to the position of President, Asia and Europe, and in the case of Mr. Jakobsen, this increase was granted in connection
with his promotion to the position of President, Americas.

Annual Incentive Awards

Annual incentive awards under BMSs Performance Incentive Plan are designed to reward the executives for achieving short-term financial and
operational goals and to reward their individual performance, consistent with the BMS pay for performance philosophy. An executives annual incentive award opportunity is a percentage of his/her base salary as determined by the
individuals job level.

For 2008, the adjusted annual incentive target award for each of our Named Executive Officers under
BMSs Performance Incentive Plan was determined based 50% on BMSs performance measured against pre-established net operating cash flow goals (a measure expressed as an absolute dollar amount that was used for the first time in 2008 and
that includes net income, working capital, capital expenditures, capitalized software, depreciation and amortization, taxes and other miscellaneous components) and 50% on BMSs performance measured against target non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings
per share (a measure that was used in 2007). For 2008, BMS eliminated division-specific financial goals used for prior years (i.e., divisional pre-tax earnings and sales goals) and replaced them with BMS cash flow goals in order to create more
seamless teamwork across BMS. This change served to align all BMS bonus participants worldwide with the interests of BMS stockholders as well as drive cross-divisional cooperation to maximize corporate-level financial performance. The 2008 net
operating cash flow goal was $3.333 billion and the target non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.54. Both of these targets reflect adjustments made in June 2008 in accordance with the terms of BMSs Performance Incentive Plan to
reflect discontinued operations. BMSs actual performance against the non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share goal was $1.74, or 113.0% of target, and BMSs actual performance against the net operating cash flow target was $3.852 billion,
or 115.6% of target.

BMSs performance measured against these goals was used to determine each participants adjusted target
annual incentive award opportunity for 2008. The actual amount of each participants bonus was based 100% on individual performance relating to Results and Behaviors, as described under Determining the Individual Compensation of Our
Named Executive Officers for 2008, and was paid at a level ranging from 100-110% of each participants adjusted target bonus. In past years, at least half of each participants bonus was tied to the achievement of corporate or
divisional objectives. Tying 100% of bonus earnings to individual performance for 2008 gave BMS more leverage to raise the level of personal accountability within the organization.

On February 19, 2009, the BMS Compensation Committee met and approved 2008 annual incentive award payouts under the BMS Performance Incentive Plan.
Actual annual incentives paid to our Named Executive Officers under the BMS Performance Incentive Plan for 2008 were as follows:

These actual payout amounts shown above are also reported in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation
column of the Summary Compensation Table below.

Long-Term Incentive Awards

Long-term incentives are designed to tie executive interests to the interests of BMS stockholders. The ultimate value of long-term awards is driven by
stock price, which provides a direct link to the creation of stockholder value. In addition, the BMS long-term incentive program is designed to reward individual performance. During 2008, BMS offered three long-term award vehicles, each of which
serves a different purpose.



| |  |  | Long-Term Performance Awards to reward the achievement of internal financial goals;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Stock Option Awards to reward the creation of incremental stockholder value; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Restricted Stock Unit Awards to help BMS retain key talent.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------

The following graph shows the 2008 target mix of the long-term incentives for each of our Named Executive Officers:

LOGO

BMS typically makes annual grants of long-term performance awards, stock option awards and restricted stock
unit awards on the first Tuesday in March to coincide with meetings of the BMS Compensation Committee and the full BMS Board. BMS believes that consistent timing of equity award grants is a good corporate governance practice that reduces the risk in
selecting a grant date with a preferential stock price. Mr. Leemputte received grants of stock option and restricted stock unit awards on October 1, 2008, which was the first business day of the month following his date of hire, consistent
with BMSs practice of granting equity-based awards to new hires, as described under Equity Grant Policy.

All of
the long-term incentive awards granted by BMS and held by our Named Executive Officers have remained outstanding following our initial public offering, and BMS continues to treat each of our Named Executives Officers as an employee of BMS for
purposes of continued vesting pursuant to these awards.

As the chart below details, approximately 66.7% of the target long-term incentives mix for our Named
Executive Officers for 2008 only became payable based on the achievement of performance criteria, including the performance of BMS common stock:

LOGO

The following is an explanation of the three categories of the BMS long-term incentive awards that relate to
our Named Executive Officers for 2008:

Long-Term Performance Awards

This type of award, which is denominated in the form of a target number of performance shares, is based on three-year performance cycles. The target
number of performance shares in an executives award is tied to his or her grade level. The higher an executives grade level, the larger the target award because executives in successively higher grade levels have correspondingly greater
levels of responsibility. The following paragraphs describe each grant of long-term performance awards held by our Named Executive Officers that was outstanding during 2008.

2006-2008 Award: BMS granted a long-term performance award in 2006 which covered the three-year performance period 2006-2008. BMS granted each of
Messrs. Golsby, Urbain and Hondmann a 2006-2008 award. Mr. Jakobsen was not eligible to receive this award. Mr. Leemputte did not receive a 2006-2008 award because he was not employed by BMS at the time of grant. Each award was based 50%
on cumulative non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share and 50% on cumulative net sales over the performance period and was subject to a total stockholder return multiplier. During this period the non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share target was
$3.92 and the cumulative net sales target was $59.049 billion. BMS believes that these targeted levels of performance were challenging but achievable and reflected anticipated business conditions and changes to BMSs drug portfolio over the
performance period. Minimum performance of 92% of target on either the earnings per share or sales portion of the award was necessary for a threshold payout of 45% for that portion of the award. Maximum performance of 110% of target would have
resulted in a payout of 220% for that portion of the award. Additionally, the final payout could have been adjusted by up to plus or minus 15% based on total stockholder return versus BMSs peer group.

Below are the achievement levels for the 2006-2008 performance cycle as they relate to Messrs. Golsby, Urbain and Hondmann:



|                   |  |        |                |        |   |                |  |       |        |  |       |

2007-2009 Award: In 2007, the long-term performance award design for the 2007-2009 performance
period (and for subsequent periods, as deemed appropriate by the BMS Compensation Committee) was modified such that the BMS Compensation Committee will approve annual earnings per share and sales targets at the beginning of each of the three years
of the cycle, with final payout made at the end of the three-year performance period. Under the prior program design, three-year cumulative earnings per share and sales targets were set at the beginning of the three-year performance period. BMS
determined that the change made for the 2007-2009 performance period provides for a better link between performance and payout because it eliminates the need to project performance beyond one year. This closer line of sight will help to avoid
situations where unforeseen events lead to performance targets that are either overstated or understated and do not appropriately support BMSs pay for performance philosophy. BMS also eliminated a feature used in previous years in which
payouts were adjusted based upon its three-year total stockholder return versus that of its competitors because, under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code), BMS is not permitted to combine a three-year total
stockholder return measure with financial goals that are set annually. Given that long-term performance awards are denominated and paid in shares, however, a strong link to stockholder return remains.

BMS granted each of our Named Executive Officers a 2007-2009 award, other than Mr. Leemputte, who was not employed by BMS at the time of grant. This
award is based 50% on non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share and 50% on net sales. In March 2007, the BMS Compensation Committee approved 2007 earnings per share and sales targets under the 2007-2009 award. The 2007 non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings
per share target was $1.25 and the 2007 net sales target was $19.262 billion. In January 2008, the BMS Compensation Committee approved the 2008 earnings per share and sales targets under the 2007-2009 award. The 2008 non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings
per share target was $1.54 and the 2008 net sales target was $19.627 billion. Both of these targets reflect adjustments made in June 2008 in accordance with the terms of BMSs equity incentive plan to reflect discontinued operations. The final
one-third of the award will be tied to 2009 annual targets. Upon completion of the three-year cycle, award earnings on each one-third of the award will be tallied and a payout will be made. An achievement of 92% on a given performance measure will
yield a payout of 45% of target for that portion of the award. Achievement below 92% will yield no payout. Achievement levels of 110% or higher will yield a maximum payout of 220% for that portion of the award.

Below are the achievement levels for the first and second years of the 2007-2009 performance cycle as they relate to our Named Executive Officers:



|                   |  |        |                |        |   |                |  |       |        |  |       |

The first-year payout under the 2007-2009 award was 173.6%, a payout factor which applies to
one-third of the target award only. The second-year payout under the 2007-2009 award was 182.1%, which also applies to one-third of the target award only. The payouts on these portions of the award are fixed, but will not be paid until the
completion of the three-year cycle. The final one-third of the award will be tied to 2009 annual targets. Upon completion of the three-year cycle, award earnings on each third of the award will be tallied and a payout will be made.

2008-2010 Award: In 2008, the long-term performance award design for the 2008-2010 performance period was similar to the long-term performance
award design for the 2007-2009 performance period described above, except that the award payout schedule differs from the 2007-2009 performance period awards. BMS granted each of our Named Executive Officers a 2008-2010 award (based on a fixed
number of shares, rather than a dollar

amount), other than Mr. Leemputte, who was not employed by BMS at the time of grant. Each such award is based 50% on non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per
share and 50% on net sales. The 2008 non-U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share target was $1.54 and the 2008 net sales target was $19.627 billion. Both of these targets reflect an adjustment made in June 2008 in accordance with the terms of
BMSs equity incentive plan to reflect discontinued operations due to BMSs divestiture of a business unit. Under the awards granted for the 2008-2010 performance period, an achievement of 80% on a given performance measure will yield a
payout of 40% of target for that portion of the award, achievement below 80% will yield no payout and achievement levels of 115% or higher will yield a maximum payout of 165% for that portion of the award.

Below are the achievement levels for the first year of the 2008-2010 performance cycle as they relate to our Named Executive Officers:



|                   |  |        |                |        |   |                |  |       |        |  |       |

|Earnings Per Share |  |        | $    1.54      |        |   | $    1.74      |  | 113.0 | %      |  | 155.0 | %

|Combined           |  |        |                |        |   |                |  |       |        |  | 132.9 | %

The first-year payout under the 2008-2010 award was 132.9%, a payout factor which applies to
one-third of the target award only. The payout on this portion of the award is fixed, but will not be paid until the completion of the three-year cycle. In year two of the performance cycle, another one-third of the target award will be tied to 2009
annual targets, and the final one-third of the award will be tied to 2010 annual targets. Upon completion of the three-year cycle, award earnings on each third of the award will be tallied and a payout will be made.

Special 2008-2010 Award: To drive continued cost reductions and productivity improvements over the next three years, BMS granted a special,
one-time long-term performance award to all BMS executives worldwide including each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Leemputte, in 2008. The payout of this award is tied to the extent that net operating cash flow and pretax
profit margin goals, which will be approved annually by the BMS Compensation Committee, are achieved over the 2008-2010 performance period. The 2008 net operating cash flow target was $3.333 billion and the 2008 pretax profit margin target was
18.8%. Both of these targets reflect adjustments made in June 2008 in accordance with the terms of BMSs equity incentive plan to reflect discontinued operations. BMSs actual performance against the pretax profit margin goal was 20.7%, or
110.1% of target. BMSs actual performance against the net operating cash flow target was $3.852 billion, or 115.6% of target. Approximately 100 of the top executives of BMS including, prior to our initial public offering, each of our Named
Executive Officers, other than Mr. Leemputte, are normally eligible for long-term performance awards on an annual basis. For this group, the special award was granted by BMS in addition to a regular 2008-2010 long-term performance award and was
granted in the same amount as the regular award (based on a fixed number of shares, rather than a dollar amount). These awards have the same payout schedule as the regular 2008-2010 long-term performance awards described above.

Below are the achievement levels for the first year of the special 2008-2010 performance cycle as they relate to our Named Executive Officers:



|                   |  |        |               |   |        |   |               |             |  |       |        |  |       |

The first-year payout under the Special 2008-2010 award was 152.1%, a payout factor which applies
to one-third of the target award only. The payout on this portion of the award is fixed, but will not be paid until the completion of the three-year cycle. In year two of the performance cycle, another one-third of the target award will be tied to
2009 annual targets, and the final one-third of the award will be tied to 2010 annual targets. Upon completion of the three-year cycle, award earnings on each third of the award will be tallied and a payout will be made.

Mr. Leemputte was hired in September 2008 and has not received a grant of BMS long-term performance
awards.

Stock Option Awards

BMS grants stock options to executives as an incentive to create long-term stockholder value. The size of the annual award an executive receives is tied to a combination of grade level and individual performance.
Within each grade level, for 2008, BMS established a fixed-value guideline award (based on a fixed dollar amount). In prior years, BMS used a fixed-share guideline (based on a fixed number of shares). BMS shifted to fixed-value awards to deliver a
targeted amount of value to employees at the grant date regardless of changes in stock price and option valuation assumptions over time. On an individual level, the executive may receive more than or less than the award guideline, or potentially no
award at all, based upon the executives performance versus pre-established performance standards (a process which is described under BMS Performance Management System). Each stock options exercise price per share is
equal to the fair market value per share of BMS common stock on the date of grant. These options vest 25% per year over four years following the date of grant, except that Mr. Leemputtes initial stock option award contains special
accelerated vesting provisions, which are described under Special Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Leemputte.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

BMS grants service-based restricted stock unit awards to assist BMS in retaining key
talent. The size of the annual award an executive receives is determined in the same manner as that described above for stock option awards. Annual grants of restricted stock units vest 25% per year over four years following the date of grant,
except that Mr. Leemputtes initial restricted stock unit award contains special accelerated vesting provisions, which are described under Special Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Leemputte.

To further enhance the link between executive pay and BMSs performance against its business strategy, BMS determined the size of the stock option
awards and restricted stock unit awards for 2008 for each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Leemputte, in large part based on the assessment of the executives measured performance against objectives that drive the BMS
business strategy and demonstration of behaviors consistent with the BMS Pledge and the Core BMS Behaviors under the BMS Performance Management System. BMS guidelines, which are established based on competitive benchmarking, provide that employees
can receive between 0% and 150% of their targeted award based on individual performance.

In March 2008, our Named Executive Officers,
other than Mr. Leemputte, received stock option grants and restricted stock unit awards ranging from 105% to 115% of the established guidelines.

Individual Compensation Arrangements

BMS has entered into retention agreements with Messrs. Golsby, Urbain, Jakobsen and
Hondmann. In addition, Mr. Leemputtes and Mr. Hondmanns offer letters provide for certain compensation and benefits. These individual arrangements are described in this section.

Retention Agreements

BMS has
entered into retention agreements with certain executives, including each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Leemputte. These agreements enable management to evaluate and support a range of potential transactions (such as our
initial public offering) that might be beneficial to stockholders of BMS. Additionally, the agreements provide for continuity of management in the event of such a transaction. The agreements provide for a special performance bonus equal to up to
each applicable Named Executive Officers target annual BMS bonus as of the closing of the transaction (except that for Mr. Golsby, the special performance bonus will range from an amount equal to one times his target annual BMS bonus up
to $1.6 million, as

determined by the BMS Compensation Committee in its discretion) in the event such a transaction is consummated, as well as a pro rata bonus at the
executives target level under BMSs annual bonus plan in the event the executives employment is transferred along with Mead Johnsons business. The special performance bonus is payable in two installments. The first installment
was paid within 30 days following completion of our initial public offering. The second installment is payable within 30 days of the six-month anniversary of completion of our initial public offering, subject to the Named Executive Officers
continued employment on the payment date. However, the second installment will also be paid upon an involuntary termination of employment prior to such six-month anniversary. Pursuant to these agreements, Mr. Golsby received a cash bonus of
$500,000, Messrs. Urbain and Jakobsen each received a cash bonus of $85,000 and Mr. Hondmann received a cash bonus of $55,311, each as the first installment of the special performance bonus. The second installment will be in the same amount as
the first for each of our Named Executive Officers.

The retention agreements also provide for enhanced severance benefits in the event the
executives employment is terminated for reasons other than cause within 12 months following completion of our initial public offering. If such a termination of employment had occurred during 2008 prior to the effectiveness of the amendments to
the retention agreements described below, the executive would have been entitled to receive the greater of 18 months (for Mr. Golsby) or one year (for Messrs. Urbain, Jakobsen and Hondmann) of base pay or the severance benefits under the
applicable BMS severance plan.

The retention agreements became effective in November 2007 and initially covered transactions that occur
through April 20, 2009. The BMS Compensation Committee reviewed the benefits provided under the agreements to ensure they met its needs. Based on recommendations from Frederic W. Cook & Co., as described under Our
Post-Offering Compensation Program, for 2008, the BMS Compensation Committee decided to amend the retention agreements to (i) include initial public offerings of more than 10% of Mead Johnson as a covered transaction (which occurred in
connection with our initial public offering), (ii) extend the period during which a covered transaction could occur to December 31, 2009, (iii) increase the severance protection period to 18 months following consummation of the
transaction and (iv) increase the severance benefits to the greater of two years (for Mr. Golsby) or 18 months (for Messrs. Urbain, Jakobsen and Hondmann) of base pay or the severance benefits under the applicable BMS severance plan.
Also, the amendment provided that the change-in-control agreements with Messrs. Golsby and Urbain will continue to apply with respect to a change in control of BMS following our initial public offering, and that Messrs. Jakobsen and Hondmann
would continue to be entitled to participate in BMSs Change in Control Separation Benefits Plan, as described under Change-in-Control Arrangements and Mead Johnson Program Distinctions from the BMS
ProgramChange-in-Control Arrangements below. The BMS Compensation Committee will continue to conduct reviews on an annual basis to ensure the retention agreements and the change-in-control agreements conform to applicable BMS policies
and competitive practices. The value of these benefits for our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Leemputte, determined as if employment terminated on December 31, 2008, is provided below in the Post-Termination Benefits section.

Special Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Leemputte

In connection with hiring Mr. Leemputte to become our Chief Financial Officer, BMS provided him with an offer letter that entitles him to certain
compensation and benefits. This included a $300,000 cash sign-on bonus, $200,000 in sign-on BMS stock option awards and $800,000 in sign-on BMS restricted stock unit awards. The BMS Compensation Committee determined these amounts to be appropriate
to compensate Mr. Leemputte for the equity-based awards he forfeited when he left his prior employer and to provide him with an incentive to join Mead Johnson. These stock option and restricted stock unit awards were granted on October 1,
2008 in connection with commencing employment. These stock option and restricted stock unit awards vest 25% per year over four years and provide for immediate vesting upon an involuntary termination of Mr. Leemputtes employment for
reasons other than cause. Mr. Leemputte is also eligible to participate in the Mead Johnson bonus plan (with a target bonus of 85% of base salary) and to receive a Mead Johnson 2009 annual performance share award (targeted at $700,000), a Mead
Johnson 2009 annual stock option award (targeted at $700,000) and a

##### Table of Contents

Mead Johnson founders award of restricted stock units (targeted at $700,000) under our stock award and incentive plan. The founders award was
granted to Mr. Leemputte on February 11, 2009, as described under Founders Awards below.

In accordance
with his offer letter, if Mr. Leemputte is terminated without cause or terminates his employment for good reason, he is entitled to the greater of 18 months base salary or the severance he would have been entitled to under the Bristol-Myers
Squibb Company Severance Plan. Further, if BMS divests Mead Johnson and Mr. Leemputte is involuntarily terminated without cause within 18 months thereafter, BMS will pay Mr. Leemputte the same severance amount described above. If
Mr. Leemputte is terminated more than 18 months following the divestiture by BMS, severance benefits (if any) will be paid by the successor company.

Other Elements of 2008 Compensation

In addition to the components set forth above, BMS senior executives, including each of
our Named Executive Officers, were entitled to participate in the following programs in 2008:

Post-Employment Benefits

BMS offers certain plans which provide compensation and benefits to employees, including
our Named Executive Officers, if their employment is terminated. These plans are periodically reviewed by the BMS Compensation Committee to ensure that they are consistent with competitive practice. The plans offered are common within BMSs
peer group and enhance its ability to attract and retain key talent.

Qualified and Non-Qualified Retirement Plans: During 2008,
each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Jakobsen, participated in BMSs defined benefit plans for U.S. employees, which provide income for employees following retirement. The BMS Retirement Income Plan is a tax-qualified plan,
as defined under Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations, and the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanRetirement Plan is a non-qualified plan that provides pension benefits above those allowed under the contribution limits for tax-qualified plans.
All U.S. employees of BMS who are not participants in a pension plan through a collective bargaining agreement are eligible for the qualified plan if they work at least 1,000 hours per year, and employees who participate in the BMS Performance
Incentive Plan or whose pay or benefits exceeds the IRS qualified plan limits are eligible for the non-qualified plan. Mr. Jakobsen was a U.S. expatriate prior to January 1, 2009, and during his expatriate assignment, he participated in
the BMS Key International Pension Plan. This plan provides defined benefit retirement benefits to employees of BMS categorized as U.S. expatriates. The Summary Compensation Table reflects the increase in 2008 in the actuarial value of these
benefits. Accrued benefits for each of our Named Executive Officers, determined as of December 31, 2008, are provided in the Pension Benefits Table. Mr. Jakobsen became eligible to participate in the U.S. retirement plans on
January 1, 2009 as part of BMSs inpatriate package.

Qualified and Non-Qualified Savings Plans: During 2008, each of our
Named Executive Officers, other than Messrs. Jakobsen and Leemputte, participated in BMSs savings plans for U.S. employees, which allow employees to defer a portion of their base salary and to receive matching contributions from BMS to
supplement

##### Table of Contents

their income in retirement. The BMS Savings and Investment Program is a tax-qualified 401(k) plan, as defined under IRS regulations, and the BMS Benefit
Equalization PlanSavings Plan is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that allows employees to defer a portion of their base salary and to receive matching contributions from BMS in excess of the contributions allowed under the BMS
Savings and Investment Program. The savings plans are designed to allow employees to accumulate savings for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. All U.S. employees of BMS are eligible to participate in the qualified plan, and employees who
participate in the qualified plan who participate in the BMS Performance Incentive Plan or whose pay or benefits exceeds the IRS qualified plan limits are eligible for the non-qualified plan. The Summary Compensation Table reflects BMS contributions
to these plans during 2008. The Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Table provides more detail on the BMS Benefits Equalization PlanSavings Plan. Mr. Jakobsen became eligible to participate in the savings plans on January 1, 2009 as
part of BMSs inpatriate package.

Non-Qualified Annual Incentive Deferral Plan: BMS maintains a non-qualified deferred
compensation program which is available to all executives of BMS, including our Named Executive Officers. The program provides a benefit to eligible employees by allowing them to defer taxes on earned compensation. This is a common program within
BMSs competitive peer group. Under the program, executives are permitted to defer up to 100% of their annual cash incentive awards into a choice of two funds: (1) a BMS common stock unit fund and (2) a U.S. Treasury Bill fund. BMS
does not pay above-market interest rates on these investments. Upon retirement or termination of employment, the employee is eligible to receive the deferred amounts based on a previously-selected payout schedule. The BMS Compensation Committee may
approve accelerated distributions in the event of an unforeseeable emergency. In 2008, our Named Executive Officers did not defer their annual incentive award payments. The Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Table provides more detail on this
program for these executives who participated in the plan in previous years.

Severance Plan: The Bristol-Myers Squibb Senior
Executive Severance Plan provides a competitive level of severance protection for certain senior executives to help BMS attract and retain key talent necessary to run BMS. This plan covers 15 BMS executives, including Mr. Golsby. Severance
benefits for Messrs. Leemputte, Urbain, Jakobsen and Hondmann are covered by the broad-based Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Severance Plan and calculated based on years of service. Mr. Leemputtes offer letter also contains special severance
benefits, as described under Special Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Leemputte. The retention agreements with Messrs. Golsby, Urbain, Jakobsen and Hondmann also contain special severance benefits, as described under
Retention Agreements. The value of the severance benefits for our Named Executive Officers, determined as if employment terminated on December 31, 2008, is shown below in the Post-Termination Benefits section.

Change-in-Control Arrangements: BMS has entered into change-in-control agreements with certain executives including, as of December 31, 2008,
Messrs. Golsby, Leemputte and Urbain. These agreements enable management to evaluate and support potential transactions that might be beneficial to stockholders even though the result would be a change in control of BMS. Additionally, the
agreements provide for continuity of management in the event of a change in control. BMSs agreements require a double-trigger before any payments are made to an executive. This means that payments are only made in the event of a
change in control and subsequent involuntary termination or termination for good reason of the executive within three years after a change in control.

Consistent with competitive practice, if payments made to a covered executive are subject to the excise tax applicable to excess parachute payments pursuant to the Code, BMS will gross up the compensation to fully
offset the excise tax. However, if the payment does not exceed the excise tax threshold by more than 10%, BMS will reduce the payment so that no portion of the payment is subject to excise tax and no gross-up will be made. Based on a review
conducted by Mercer, BMS believes that this is a best practice relating to change-in-control arrangements.

The change-in-control
agreements become effective on January 1 of each year and remain in effect through December 31 of that year. These agreements are automatically extended, beginning on each January 1, unless

either BMS or the executive gives prior notice of termination of the agreement or a change in control shall have occurred prior to January 1 of such
year. If a change in control occurs during the term of the agreement, the agreement will continue in effect for a period of not less than 36 months beyond the month in which the change in control occurred. The change-in-control agreements that were
in effect for 2008 with Messrs. Golsby, Leemputte and Urbain expired on December 31, 2008 and, effective January 1, 2009, they were replaced by change-in-control agreements with substantially similar terms that have been updated to address
the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (Section 409A).

The BMS Compensation Committee reviews the benefits provided under the
agreements on an annual basis to ensure they meet BMSs needs and, with Mercers assistance, ensure that the benefits are within competitive parameters. The BMS Compensation Committee will continue to conduct such reviews on an annual
basis to ensure the agreements conform to applicable BMS policies and competitive practices.

As of December 31, 2008,
Messrs. Jakobsen and Hondmann were covered by the broad-based Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Change-in-Control Separation Benefits Plan. This plan provides enhanced severance benefits in the event of a double-trigger termination of
employment for reasons other than for cause or due to a good reason resignation within three years following a change in control. On January 1, 2009, Mr. Jakobsen became eligible to receive a change-in-control agreement similar to the
agreements with Messrs. Leemputte and Urbain and ceased participation in the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Change-in-Control Separation Benefits Plan.

The value of these benefits for each of our Named Executive Officers, determined as if employment terminated on December 31, 2008, is provided in the Post-Termination Benefits section below. The change-in-control
arrangements between BMS and our Named Executive Officers will remain in effect for so long as BMS continues to hold a majority ownership position in Mead Johnson.

Limited Perquisites

During 2008, each of our Named Executive Officers was entitled to receive
an annual physical examination, subject to a dollar limit. In addition, Mr. Golsby received two annual home leave trips to Thailand and related tax gross-ups, as well as furniture storage in Thailand. Since our initial public offering,
Mr. Golsby is no longer entitled to such perquisites. As a U.S. expatriate during 2008, Mr. Jakobsen was entitled to receive certain personal benefits pursuant to BMSs expatriate policy, including housing, subject to a dollar limit,
a car for foreign locations, where appropriate, and tax preparation services.

Effective January 1, 2008, BMS eliminated the following
perquisites provided to its senior executives, including Messrs. Golsby and Urbain: a company car, financial counseling and tax preparation for the 2008 calendar year and later. On January 1, 2008, Messrs. Golsby and Urbain received
base salary increases averaging 3% to partially offset the elimination of these perquisites.

As of January 1, 2009, Mr. Urbain
became a U.S. expatriate and participates in BMSs expatriate program. As of January 1, 2009, Mr. Jakobsen was no longer a U.S. expatriate. Instead, Mr. Jakobsen became a U.S. local employee, but he is entitled to continue to
receive certain transitional benefits pursuant to BMSs inpatriate package.

General Employee Benefits

BMS maintains medical and dental insurance, accidental death insurance and disability insurance for all of its employees. Prior to our initial public
offering, our Named Executive Officers were eligible to participate in these programs. In addition, they were covered by BMSs vacation, leave of absence and similar policies.

Tax Implications of Executive Compensation Program

During 2008, none of the compensation paid to our
Named Executive Officers was subject to the limitations on the deductibility of compensation in excess of $1 million under Section 162(m) of the Code. This is because our Named Executive Officers were not among the executives of BMS that are
subject to Section 162(m) of the Code.

Corporate Governance Policies Covering Executive Compensation

Share Ownership and Retention Guidelines

In order to preserve the link between the interests of BMS senior executives and those of stockholders, BMS executives are expected to use the BMS shares acquired upon the exercise of their BMS stock options, after
satisfying the cost of exercise and taxes, to establish and maintain a significant level of direct ownership in BMS. This same expectation applies to shares acquired upon the vesting of BMS restricted stock units. BMS continues to maintain
longstanding share ownership expectations for BMSs senior executives. BMSs guidelines require that each of Messrs. Golsby, Leemputte and Urbain hold BMS shares with a value of three times his base salary. Messrs. Golsby, Leemputte
and Urbain may sell up to 50% of their shares until the share ownership guideline is met, after which they are permitted to sell any additional shares they receive. Messrs. Golsby, Leemputte and Urbain were in compliance with BMSs share
ownership and retention guidelines during 2008.

During 2008, Messrs. Jakobsen and Hondmann were not subject to share ownership and
retention guidelines with respect to BMS shares. However, effective January 1, 2009, Mr. Jakobsen became subject to these guidelines.

The BMS share ownership guidelines remain applicable to each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Hondmann, for a period of six months following our initial public offering, after which they will not be required to retain
their BMS shares. Immediately following our initial public offering, each of our Named Executive Officers became subject to Mead Johnsons share ownership and retention guidelines, as described under MJN Corporate Governance Polices
Covering Executive Compensation.

Recoupment of Compensation

BMS maintains clawback provisions relating to BMS stock options, restricted stock units and long-term performance awards. Under these clawback provisions,
executives that violate non-competition or non-solicitation agreements, or otherwise act in a manner detrimental to BMSs interests, forfeit any outstanding awards as of the date such violation is discovered and have to return any gains
realized in the twelve months prior to the violation. These provisions serve to protect our intellectual property and human capital and those of BMS, and help ensure that executives act in the best interest of BMS and its stockholders.

In 2005, the BMS Board adopted a policy wherein the BMS Board will seek reimbursement of annual incentives paid to an executive if such executive
engages in misconduct that caused or partially caused a restatement of financial results. In such an event, BMS will seek to claw back the executives entire annual incentive for the relevant period, plus a reasonable rate of interest. This
policy may be viewed on BMSs website at www.bms.com.

Equity Grant Policy

The BMS Compensation Committee approved a policy covering BMS equity grants to all employees.

Approval of Awards



| |  |  | Awards granted to the Chief Executive Officer of BMS must be approved by the full BMS Board.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The BMS Compensation Committee must approve awards to all other employees, including our Named Executive Officers.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Grant Effective Date

Annual Awards



| |  |  | For regularly-scheduled annual awards, the grant effective date is the date in March on which the BMS Compensation Committee and full BMS Board meet.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



112

##### Table of Contents

All Other Awards



| |  |  | For awards granted to current employees at any other time during the year, the grant effective date is the first business day of the month following the approval
date, except that if the approval date falls on the first business day of a given month, the grant effective date is the approval date.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | For awards granted to new hires, the grant effective date is the first business day of the month following the employees hire date, except that if the
employees hire date falls on the first business day of a given month, the grant effective date is the employees hire date.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In no case whatsoever will the grant effective date precede the approval date of a given award.

Grant Price



| |  |  | The grant price of any and all awards is the fair market value (FMV) of BMSs common stock as of the grant effective date.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The FMV is defined under the stockholder-approved stock incentive plan pursuant to which the award is granted. Under the plan currently in effect, the 2007 Stock
Award and Incentive Plan, FMV equals the closing price on the date of grant.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Policy Against Repricing Stock
Options

BMS has always maintained a consistent policy against repricing of BMS stock options. BMS believes this is a critical
element in maintaining the integrity of the equity compensation program and ensuring alignment of senior executives interests with the interests of stockholders. The BMS Board has adopted a formal policy prohibiting the repricing of BMS stock
options. This policy may be viewed on BMSs website at www.bms.com.

Policy Regarding Stockholder Approval of Severance

The BMS Board has approved a policy requiring stockholder approval of any future agreements that provide for cash severance
payments in excess of 2.99 times the sum of an executives base salary plus annual incentive. Cash severance payments exclude accrued incentive payments, the value of equity acceleration, benefits continuation or the increase in
retirement benefits triggered by severance provisions or tax gross-up payments. This policy may be viewed on BMSs website at www.bms.com.

Our Post-Offering Compensation Program

The following section describes the compensation program that we have implemented
following our initial public offering. BMS engaged Frederic W. Cook & Co. prior to our initial public offering to assist in designing our post-offering compensation program, and the MJN Compensation Committee expects to identify its own
compensation consultant for purposes of advising on its compensation planning decisions, but has not yet done so.

MJN Compensation
Committee

The MJN Compensation Committee, which was appointed by the MJN Board, determines the design of our executive compensation
program. The MJN Compensation Committee will annually review and evaluate our executive compensation program to ensure that the program is aligned with our compensation philosophy.

Peer Group Analysis

Frederic W. Cook & Co. identified the following peer group of companies that BMS used for competitive benchmarking of the compensation program
for Mead Johnson. Our peer group consists of the following companies:



|                                |  |

|Alberto-Culver Company          |  | Herbalife Ltd.                   
|Allergan, Inc.                  |  | The Hershey Company              
|Campbell Soup Company           |  | H.J. Heinz Company               
|Church & Dwight Co., Inc.       |  | The J.M. Smucker Company         
|The Clorox Company              |  | Kellogg Company                  
|Del Monte Foods Company         |  | McCormick & Company, Incorporated
|Energizer Holdings, Inc.        |  | Tupperware Brands Corporation    
|The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. |  |                                  

We believe this peer group is appropriate given the unique nature of the consumer packaged goods
industry. We note that the companies in our peer group were chosen for a variety of reasons, including because they are comparable in size to us in terms of sales volume and our market capitalization.

Board Approval of Certain Compensation Arrangements

On December 5, 2008, the MJN Board met to review and approve Mead Johnsons global plan structure and plan design, including certain compensation plans and arrangements for Mead Johnson employees that
generally became effective following our initial public offering. The plans included the 2009 Stock Award and Incentive Plan and the 2009 Senior Executive Performance Incentive Plan. The MJN Board also approved guidelines for granting founders
awards based on an employees grade level as described below in Mead Johnson Program Distinctions from the BMS Program. In addition, the MJN Board approved the general plan design for the retirement, savings and health and
welfare benefit plans that are generally applicable to employees of Mead Johnson.

Founders Awards

Prior to our initial public offering, the MJN Board approved founders awards of Mead Johnson restricted stock units, subject to completion of the
offering. On February 11, 2009, we granted an aggregate of 321,917 restricted stock units as founders awards to approximately 140 of our employees, including each of our Named Executive Officers. Mr. Golsby received a founders
award of 62,500 restricted stock units, Mr. Leemputte received a founders award of 29,167 restricted stock units, Messrs. Urbain and Jakobsen each received a founders award of 16,667 restricted stock units and Mr. Hondmann
received a founders award of 9,375 restricted stock units. The founders awards will vest in equal installments on each of the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant. The value of the founders awards was tied to
each employees grade level.

Individual Post-Offering Compensation Arrangements

Prior to our initial public offering, the BMS Compensation Committee approved, with input from Frederic W. Cook & Co., a compensation package for
Mr. Golsby that became effective upon the consummation of our initial public offering. The compensation package includes an annual base salary of $900,000, a target annual incentive award opportunity equal to 115% of his base salary and annual
long-term incentive awards with a target value of $3 million. Mr. Golsbys total direct compensation (total cash compensation plus the value of long-term incentives) is targeted at between the 25th percentile and the median of our peer
group of companies, as described above under Peer Group Analysis, which was recommended by Frederic W. Cook & Co. as an appropriately competitive level given that Mr. Golsby is a new Chief Executive Officer. The BMS
Compensation Committee determined that Mr. Golsbys long-term incentive awards will be comprised of an equal value of performance shares, which are expected to be similar to those described under Long-Term Performance
Awards above, and stock options, on the terms described below under Mead Johnson Program Distinctions from the BMS Program. In addition, the BMS Compensation



114

##### Table of Contents

Committee approved a grant to Mr. Golsby of a founders award of restricted stock units with a value targeted at $1.5 million on the effective date
of our initial public offering, on the terms described below under Mead Johnson Program Distinctions from the BMS Program.

On February 18, 2009 the MJN Compensation Committee approved a compensation package for each of Messrs. Urbain and Jakobsen that has applied since that date. The compensation package includes, for each individual, an annual base salary
of $500,000, a target annual incentive award opportunity equal to 70% base salary and annual long-term incentive awards with a target value of $800,000. Consistent with BMS compensation practices, we anticipate that Messrs. Urbain and
Jakobsens long-term incentive awards will also be comprised of an equal value of performance shares, which are expected to be similar to those described under Long-Term Performance Awards above, and stock options, on the
terms described below under Mead Johnson Program Distinctions from the BMS Program.

For a description of
Mr. Leemputtes compensation arrangements, as set forth in his offer letter, see Special Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Leemputte above.

Mead Johnson Program Distinctions from the BMS Program

While we are still in the process of determining specific details of our compensation program, except as noted below, we currently expect that our compensation program will generally be similar to BMSs
compensation program. We anticipate that our compensation program will differ from BMSs compensation program in the following respects:



| |  |  | Individual Award Levels: Rather than having two separate ratings for Behaviors and Results to determine individual award levels, as described under
Determining the Individual Compensation of our Named Executive Officers for 2008, there will be a single rating that will be based primarily on Results.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Stock Option Awards: We will grant annual stock option awards with respect to our common stock to our Named Executive Officers and other senior executives
under our 2009 Stock Award and Incentive Plan as an incentive to create long-term stockholder value. These awards will include performance-based exercise thresholds. To satisfy the exercise threshold, our common stock will need to close at a price
at least 15% above the option exercise price for at least seven consecutive trading days. Although the options will vest according to a normal vesting schedule (25% per year over four years), an executive will not be able to exercise the options
unless and until the exercise threshold is satisfied. Therefore, the executive will not realize any value related to these options until our stock price appreciates at least 15%. This threshold strengthens the link between the value realized by the
executive and the creation of value for the stockholders.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Restricted Stock Unit Awards: We do not intend to grant service-based restricted stock unit awards on an annual basis because we desire to have all long-term
incentive compensation programs be performance-based. However, we granted restricted stock units as founders awards, as described under Founders Awards above, and we will grant additional restricted stock
unit awards, when needed, to hire or retain employees.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Change-in-Control Arrangements: We have not adopted a change in control severance plan and we have not entered into any individual change-in-control
arrangements with respect to a change in control of Mead Johnson, but as long as BMS continues to hold a majority ownership position in Mead Johnson, BMS will continue to offer coverage under the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Change-in-Control
Separation Benefits Plan to employees of Mead Johnson and the individual change-in-control arrangements between BMS and each of our Named Executive Officers, as applicable, will remain in effect.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Assignment Arrangements: Mr. Urbain has entered into a letter agreement regarding his employment assignment to Thailand that will entitle him to
participate in BMSs expatriate program, and Mr. Jakobsen has entered into a letter agreement regarding his employment assignment to the United States that will entitle him to participate in BMSs inpatriate program.

Corporate Governance Policies Covering Executive Compensation

The BMS share ownership guidelines will remain applicable to each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Hondmann, for a period of six
months following the offering, after which they will not be required to retain their BMS shares. We have adopted similar share ownership guidelines with respect to Mead Johnson shares. Our guidelines require that Mr. Golsby hold Mead Johnson
shares with a value of five times his base salary and that all remaining senior executives, including each of our Named Executive Officers, hold Mead Johnson shares with a value of three times their base salary, before they can sell any net shares
following the exercise of options or the vesting of restricted stock units. Once these share ownership guidelines are attained, the executive must retain 75% of all net shares acquired following any subsequent option exercises or vesting of
restricted stock units for a period of one year. We are currently considering whether to adopt other governance policies similar to those applicable to BMS.

Compensation Committee Report

The MJN Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis on pages 94 to 116 of this Annual Report required under Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K. Based on its review and discussions with management, the MJN Compensation Committee recommended to the full MJN Board that the

|(1) | Reflects position as of January 1, 2009. Messrs. Golsby, Urbain and Jakobsen served in different positions during
2008 as described above in the CD&A.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | Reflects actual salary earned. Mr. Leemputtes salary was paid from September 22, 2008, the date he

|(3) | Represents expense recognized by BMS in 2008 under FAS 123R (without regard to estimated forfeitures) for BMS restricted
stock, restricted stock units and long-term performance awards (which are denominated as performance shares). Restricted stock granted prior to 2007 is valued based on the average of the high and low prices on the grant date. Restricted stock units
granted in 2007 and thereafter are valued based on the BMS closing price on the grant date. BMS pays dividends on unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units. The value of the right to receive dividends is included in the valuation of the
restricted stock and restricted stock units. Long-term performance awards granted prior to 2007 are valued based on the average of the high and low prices on the grant date. The 2006-2008 award is valued using a Monte Carlo model, which results in a
fair value of 88% of the average of the high and low prices on the grant date. The 2007-2009 and 2008-2010 awards are valued based on the BMS closing price on the grant date. The value of the awards will be amortized over the performance period of
the award and adjusted for projected performance.

|(2) | Target payouts under the BMS Performance Incentive Plan are based on a targeted percentage of base salary earned during
the year. The BMS Compensation Committee reviews financial and individual objectives in determining the actual bonus as reported in the Summary Compensation Table. Maximum represents the maximum level of performance for which payouts are
authorized under BMSs 2008 annual incentive program. Threshold represents the minimum level of performance for which payouts are authorized under BMSs 2008 annual incentive program. Maximum and threshold percentages were the
same for all participants in the BMS Performance Incentive Plan.

|(3) | Reflects the second tranche of the BMS 2007-2009 long-term performance award program. Performance targets under the BMS
2007-2009 long-term performance award program are set on an annual basis over a three-year period at the beginning of each performance year and are based one-half on sales and one-half on earnings per share. At the end of each year, performance is
assessed versus the target sales and earnings per share to determine how many shares are earned. An actual payout will be made at the end of the three-year period. For each yearly tranche, threshold performance on both measures will result in a
payout of 45% of target; performance below threshold on either measure but not both measures will result in a payout of 22.5% of target, which is the threshold amount shown above; maximum performance will result in a payout of 220% of target;
performance above the maximum level will result in the maximum payout.

|(5) | Reflects the first tranche of the BMS 2008-2010 special long-term performance award program. Performance targets under
the BMS 2008-2010 special long-term performance award program are set on an annual basis over a three-year period at the beginning of each performance year and are based one-half on operating cash flow and one-half on pre-tax profit margin. At the
end of each year, performance is assessed versus the target pre-tax profit margin and operating cash flow to determine how many shares are earned. An actual payout will be made at the end of the three-year period. For each yearly tranche, threshold
performance on both measures will result in a payout of 40% of target; performance below threshold on either measure but not both measures will result in a payout of 20% of target, which is the threshold amount shown above; maximum performance will
result in a payout of 165% of target; performance above the maximum level will result in the maximum payout.

Plan and the BMS Key International Pension Plan:
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 65% lump sum utilization for the BMS Retirement Income Plan/BMS Key International Pension Plan and 100% lump sum utilization for the BMS Benefits Equalization Plan.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 6.5% discount rate for annuities and 5.75% discount rate for lump sums.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the RP 2000 mortality table projected to 2016 for annuities.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the 2009 lump sum mortality table under Section 417(e)(3) of the Code (combined annuitant and nonannuitant RP 2000 mortality table with projections blended 50%
male/50% female) for lump sums.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These assumptions are the same as those disclosed in BMSs Annual Report on
Form 10-K in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The actual benefit received will vary based on a number of factors including final pay, years of service and interest rates at the time of retirement. No pension payments were made to any Named Executive
Officer under these plans in 2008.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan

The BMS Benefit Equalization PlanSavings Plan is a non-qualified
deferred compensation plan that allows employees to defer a portion of their base salary and to receive BMS matching contributions in excess of contributions allowed under the BMS Savings and Investment Program. The BMS Savings and Investment
Program is a tax-qualified plan, as defined under Section 401(a) and Section 401(k) of the Code. Employees who participate in the BMS Performance Incentive Plan or whose pay or benefits exceed the IRS qualified plan limits are eligible for
the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanSavings Plan. The key provisions of the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanSavings Plan are as follows:



| |  |  | Contributions to the BMS Benefit Equalization PlanSavings Plan begin once the employees total base salary paid for the year exceeds the limit under
Section 401(a) (17) of the Code, or total contributions to the BMS Savings and Investment Program exceed the limits under Section 415(c) of the Code.

As described in the CD&A, BMS has entered

Change in Control

As disclosed in the CD&A, BMS has entered into change-in-control agreements with certain senior executives, including Messrs. Golsby,
Leemputte and Urbain. The current agreements will expire on December 31, 2009, and may be extended with revisions, as appropriate, beginning on January 1, 2010 in one-year increments unless either BMS or the executive gives prior notice of
termination of the agreement or a change in control or potential change in control shall have occurred during the term of the agreement.

To trigger benefits, there must be both a change in control or potential change in control of BMS and either (i) a subsequent involuntary termination without cause by the employer or (ii) a good reason termination by the employee.
Good reason includes a reduction in job responsibilities or changes in pay and benefits as well as relocation beyond 50 miles. The executive has 120 days to assert a claim for payments under this provision, and BMS has until the date of termination
to correct such circumstances. This protection extends for three years following a change in control.

Change in Control means
the occurrence of any one of the following events after the effective date of the agreement:



| | (i) | Any Person (as defined in Section 13(d) (3) of the Exchange Act) shall have become the direct or indirect beneficial owner of thirty percent (30%) or more of the then

Also as disclosed in the CD&A, Messrs. Jakobsen and Hondmann are participants in the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Change-in-Control Separation Benefits Plan. To trigger benefits under this plan, there must be
both a change in control of BMS and either (i) a subsequent involuntary termination without cause by the employer or (ii) a good reason termination. A good reason termination would include reductions in base salary, annual bonus, benefits
and perquisites as well as relocation beyond 50 miles. The executive has 60 days to assert a claim for payments under this provision. This protection extends for three years following a change in control.

Change in Control is defined similarly to the definition contained in the change-in-control agreements described above.

Messrs. Jakobsen and Hondmann will receive the following benefits upon termination if they execute a valid release of claims:



| |  |  | Either:
| | - |  | -------



| |  |  | a cash payment equal to 12 months of base salary; or
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

Director Compensation

When we were formed in December 2008, our initial board of directors was
comprised of James M. Cornelius, Lamberto Andreotti, Stephen W. Golsby, Jean-Marc Huet, John E. Celentano and Sandra Leung, all of whom were full-time employees of either BMS or Mead Johnson. None of these initial directors received any additional
compensation for service as a director of Mead Johnson.

We intend to provide competitive compensation to our non-employee directors that
will enable us to attract and retain high quality directors, provide them with compensation at a level that is consistent with our compensation objectives and encourage their ownership of our stock to further align their interests with those of our
stockholders. Our directors who are full-time employees of Mead Johnson or BMS will receive no additional compensation for service as a director of Mead Johnson.

In January 2009, our board of directors reviewed market data and other analysis prepared by Frederic W. Cook & Co. and determined that it was appropriate to target non-employee director compensation between
the

25th percentile and the median of compensation for our peer group of companies, which are listed above under Our Post-Offering Compensation
ProgramPeer Group Analysis. Based on that review, our board of directors adopted an initial non-employee director compensation program which includes the following:



| |  |  | An annual cash retainer of $55,000, payable to each non-employee director.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Annual cash retainers of $20,000, $15,000 and $10,000, payable to the chairs of our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance
committee, respectively.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Annual cash retainers of $10,000, $7,500 and $5,000, payable to each non-employee director who is a member of our audit committee, compensation committee and
nominating and corporate governance committee, respectively (in each case, other than the chair of the relevant committee).
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | An annual grant of Mead Johnson equity-based awards having a grant date fair market value of $80,000, to be granted to each non-employee director. Upon the
consummation of our initial public offering, each individual then serving as a non-employee director received, in lieu of an annual grant for 2009, a founders award of 3,334 Mead Johnson restricted stock units having a grant date fair market
value of approximately $80,000. The terms of the founders awards provide that the restricted stock units will fully vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. It is anticipated that in future years, equity grants to our non-employee
directors will be made on the date of the annual meeting of our stockholders. Grants will be made pursuant to the 2009 Stock Award and Incentive Plan.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our non-employee directors will not receive any fees for attendance at board of directors or committee meetings.

Our non-employee directors are subject to ownership guidelines regarding shares of our common stock. Our guidelines require that each of our non-employee directors hold shares with a value equal to four times his or her annual cash retainer
of $55,000, for a total of $220,000. These shares are to be acquired through the retention of the annual stock awards as well as any other acquisition of stock. Our non-employee directors may not sell any of their stock until the director has
achieved the ownership threshold, after which the director is free to sell any shares acquired following vesting. If one of our non-employee directors departs from the MJN Board, the director must retain shares with a value equal to four times his
or her annual cash retainer for a six-month period following the directors date of departure.

Securities Authorized For Issuance Under Equity
Compensation Plans

The table below sets forth information with regard to securities authorized for issuance under our equity
compensation plans as of December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, we had one equity compensation plan (the 2009 Stock Award and Incentive Plan), which was approved by BMS, then our sole stockholder, but under which no awards
had been granted as of that date.

|Item 12. | SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following table sets forth information as of March 16, 2009, as to the beneficial ownership of shares of each class of our common stock and the
common stock of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, in each case, by:



| |  |  | each of our Named Executive Officers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | each of our directors; and
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | all of our executive officers and directors as a group.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------

The number of shares beneficially owned by each shareholder is determined under the SECs rules and generally includes voting or investment power over shares. Under SEC rules, shares are beneficially owned when
an individual has voting and/or investment power over the shares or could obtain voting and/or investment power over the shares within 60 days. Voting power includes the power to direct the voting of the shares and investment power includes the
power to direct the disposition of the shares. Unless otherwise noted, shares listed below are owned directly or indirectly with sole voting and investment power. None of our directors and executive offices, individually or as a group, beneficially
owns greater than 1% of the outstanding shares of our common stock or the common stock of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.

|Item 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
|-------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Relationship with BMS

BMS owns 55.1% of the outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, and 100% of our
outstanding Class B common stock, giving it 83.1% of the shares of our outstanding common stock and 97.5% of the combined voting power of our outstanding common stock. BMS is not subject to any contractual obligation to retain its controlling
interest in us, except that BMS has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of our shares of common stock for a period of 180 days after the date of our initial public offering without the prior written consent
of the representatives of the underwriters of the offering.

We have entered into agreements with BMS to clarify our relationship with BMS
while it is our controlling stockholder. As our controlling stockholder, BMS will exercise significant influence over our business policies and affairs, including the composition of our board of directors and any action requiring the approval of our
stockholders. We do not have a formal mechanism by which our independent directors must approve any future transactions with BMS or any related persons. We intend to consider adopting a policy which would address related party transactions. See
Risk FactorsRisks Related to Our Relationship with BMS.

Pre-Initial Public Offering Transactions

Prior to our initial public offering, we were a wholly owned subsidiary of BMS and all of our outstanding shares of common stock were owned by BMS.
Following our separation and upon completion of our initial public offering, we became a stand-alone public company.

In connection with
the separation, we and BMS entered into an agreement that provided for the separation of our business from BMS. In addition, we and BMS entered into a transitional services agreement governing the provision of various services on a transitional
basis by BMS to us as well as by us to BMS and several ancillary agreements in connection with the separation.

The following are the
principal steps in connection with the separation of our business from BMS:



| |  |  | BMS formed MJN Restructuring Holdco, Inc. (MJN Restructuring) on August 22, 2008.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



135



---

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | On August 27, 2008, through a series of steps, Mead Johnson & Company, which directly or indirectly holds substantially all of our U.S. assets, became
a wholly owned subsidiary of MJN Restructuring.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During the fourth quarter of 2008, new entities were formed as direct and indirect subsidiaries of MJN Restructuring in numerous non-U.S. jurisdictions through
which we intend to conduct our business in those jurisdictions in the future.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On December 17, 2008, BMS formed our company as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary. We and MJN Restructuring had the same direct parent company, which was
another wholly owned subsidiary of BMS.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On January 31, 2009, we completed the transfers of our non-U.S. businesses from BMS to MJN Restructuring through a sale of shares, sale of assets and
contributions of stock with some exceptions. The consideration for these transfers was in the form of cash, which was contributed or otherwise provided by BMS, and the issuance by subsidiaries of MJN Restructuring of foreign intercompany notes (the
foreign intercompany notes) to BMS subsidiaries related to the purchase of assets and shares in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Netherlands and the Philippines.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The terms of each of these foreign intercompany notes were substantially similar, except that the principal amount of each note varied by jurisdiction. The
aggregate principal amount of the foreign intercompany notes was approximately $597 million and the rate of interest per annum on each note was equal to LIBOR plus 0.75%. The foreign intercompany notes were repaid in full on the date the
initial public offering was completed, with the net proceeds from the offering, and thus the foreign intercompany notes are no longer outstanding.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On February 10, 2009, MJN Restructuring merged with and into our company, with our company remaining the surviving entity. Therefore, we hold, all of the
businesses acquired by MJN Restructuring.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Post-Initial Public Offering Transactions

We have paid for, or otherwise received rights to, the assets and shares related to our business in Argentina, Brazil, China, Vietnam and India, but the
assets and shares have not yet been transferred to us by BMS. In Mexico, all of our assets have been transferred (with our manufacturing facility and related assets in Mexico transferred to us by way of a capital lease). We and BMS are implementing
alternative arrangements to complete the transfer of assets in these jurisdictions.

Specifically:



| |  |  | in Argentina, we expect to complete the business transfers within one year of our initial public offering and we will market our products while BMS will distribute
our products in this jurisdiction during the transitional period;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in Brazil, we expect to complete the business transfer within 24 months after our initial public offering and we will market our products while BMS will distribute
our products in this jurisdiction during the transitional period;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in Vietnam, we expect to complete the business transfer within 3 months after our initial public offering, and in India we expect to complete the transfer within 9
to 12 months of our initial public offering, in each case with BMS distributing our products in the interim; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in China, we have entered into a services agreement with BMS that will result in the continued operation of our China business for our benefit.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, while we have historically used BMSs pharmaceutical operations to distribute our products in Europe,
following our initial public offering, we intend to distribute our products in Europe through third-party distributors with BMS acting as our initial distributor in most countries.

##### Table of Contents

China

Our business in China is currently managed and operated by Mead Johnson Nutritionals (China) Ltd. (MJN China), 89% of which is currently held indirectly by BMS and 11% of which is held by two Chinese companies not
affiliated with BMS or MJN.

BMS and MJN have entered into a services agreement (MJN China Services Agreement) pursuant to which BMS has
agreed to cause MJN China to operate in a manner that is consistent with the instructions and directions of MJN. In return, MJN will provide all necessary support and access to assets and resources, including intellectual property, for BMS to cause
MJN China to operate in a manner consistent with MJNs instructions and directions. This support will include management oversight, supply chain management and general stewardship of MJN Chinas business.

The MJN China Services Agreement has been designed so that MJN will be entitled to the cash flows, benefit and risk of MJN Chinas operations and
business. To the extent MJN China has positive cash balances and is able to distribute such amounts to its foreign parent under applicable law, BMS will be obligated to make a payment to us equal to this amount. To the extent MJN decides to have
cash contributed to MJN China, we will be obligated to make a payment to BMS equal to this amount.

BMS has the right (Put Right),
exercisable at any time, to require MJN to purchase all of the shares of MJN China indirectly held by BMS in exchange for the MJN China Consideration (as defined below). MJN has the right (Call Right) to require BMS to cause all of the shares of MJN
China indirectly held by BMS to be sold to MJN in exchange for the MJN China Consideration, which right will be exercisable at any time after the earliest of: (1) BMS and its subsidiaries ceasing to own or control 50% or more of the voting
interests of MJN, including as a result of an acquisition of 50% or more of the voting interests of BMS by any one entity, (2) the occurrence of a BMS insolvency event and (3) 10 years after the effective date of the MJN China Services
Agreement. MJN China Consideration is defined in substance as the termination of the MJN China Services Agreement and the related obligations to make the payments described above, the result of which is that no net cash payments will be
made between BMS and MJN.

BMS has agreed not to transfer to a non-BMS entity any shares of MJN China it owns directly or indirectly prior
to the exercise of the Put Right or the Call Right. The MJN China Services Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of: (1) BMS and MJN mutually agreeing to terminate the agreement, and (2) upon completion of the transfer of the MJN China
shares following the exercise of the Put Right or the Call Right.

We will consolidate MJN China as a variable interest entity in
accordance with FIN 46(R), as a result of the terms of the MJN China Services Agreement even for periods prior to any exercise of the Put Right or the Call Right.

Brazil, Argentina and India

Our principal assets in Brazil, Argentina and India have not yet
been transferred to us due to regulatory limitations. BMS will distribute and record sales of our products until our entities are established in these markets. In Brazil and Argentina, we will market our products while BMS will distribute them. We
expect to generate revenues during this transitional period through a marketing and servicing fee paid to us by BMS. In India, BMS will both market and distribute our products. After obtaining the necessary regulatory permits, our principal assets
in Brazil, subject to a working capital adjustment, and Argentina will be transferred to us, and we intend to operate our business directly through our subsidiaries in Brazil and Argentina. We expect the transitional period to be up to 24 months in
Brazil, 7 to 9 months in Argentina and 9 to 12 months in India.

Mexico

We are operating our business in Mexico through a newly-formed operating subsidiary. A subsidiary of BMS leases to our Mexican operating subsidiary all of
the property, plant and equipment assets at our



137



---

##### Table of Contents

manufacturing facility in Delicias, Mexico under a 20-year lease that will be treated as a capital lease for U.S. GAAP purposes. We have consolidated all of
these leased assets on our balance sheet historically, and we will continue to consolidate such assets on our balance sheet. We intend to acquire all of the leased assets at some future date; however, no contractual arrangement is currently in place
to effect such a transfer.

Europe

In the past, we have used BMSs pharmaceutical operations to distribute our products in Europe at cost. As a result of our separation from BMS, we now operate our business in Europe pursuant to a third-party
distributor model. We expect to generate sales by selling products to our third-party distributors. The use of third-party distributors will reduce our net sales by the amount of the distributors margin, partially offset by a reduction in our
historical distribution-related expenses, which will be borne by the third-party distributor. BMS will initially act as our distributor in most of our local European markets and will be paid a third-party distributor margin rather than having us
incur expenses at cost as was the historical practice. Over time we intend to replace BMS with independent third parties who will continue to act as our distributors.

Malaysia and the Philippines

We intend to operate our business in Malaysia and the
Philippines through our existing Malaysia and Philippines subsidiaries. In addition, we intend to operate the BMS pharmaceutical business for a transitional period of approximately one year. As a result, for a period of time following our initial
public offering, our financial results will include our sale of BMS pharma products in Malaysia and the Philippines, but we believe that those results will be immaterial to our financial statements as a whole.

Separation Agreement

We and BMS have entered into a
separation agreement, which governs the transfer of assets and assumption of liabilities and sets forth the agreements between BMS and us regarding the principal corporate transactions required to effect our separation from BMS, our initial public
offering, and other agreements governing the relationship between BMS and us.

The Separation.To effect the separation, BMS has, or
has caused its subsidiaries, to, transfer or agree to transfer, the assets of the contributed business to us as described in this Annual Report. We assumed, or agreed to assume, and agreed to perform and fulfill the liabilities of the contributed
business in accordance with their respective terms. Except as expressly set forth in the separation agreement or in any other ancillary agreement, neither we nor BMS make any representation or warranty as to:



| |  |  | the assets, businesses or liabilities transferred or assumed as part of our separation from BMS;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any consents or approvals required in connection with the transfers;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the value or freedom from any liens of any assets transferred;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the absence of any defenses or freedom from counterclaim with respect to any claim of any party; or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the legal sufficiency of any assignment, document or instrument delivered to convey title to any asset transferred.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Except as expressly set forth in any ancillary agreement, all assets were transferred on an as is, where is basis, and the
respective transferees agreed to bear the economic and legal risks that any conveyance was insufficient to vest in the transferee good and marketable title, free and clear of any lien and that any necessary consents or approvals are not obtained or
that requirements of laws or judgments are not complied with.

Releases and Indemnification.The separation agreement provides for a
full and complete release and discharge of all liabilities between BMS and us, and our respective subsidiaries, except as expressly set forth in



138

##### Table of Contents

the separation agreement. The liabilities released or discharged include liabilities arising under any contractual agreements or from any acts, events or
conditions existing or alleged to exist on or before the completion of our initial public offering (other than tax liabilities, which are addressed by the tax matters agreement described under Tax Matters Agreement).

We also agreed to indemnify, hold harmless and defend BMS, each of its affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, members, managers and
employees, from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from:



| |  |  | our failure or the failure of any of our affiliates or any other person or entity to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any liabilities associated with
the contributed business, or any contracts associated with the contributed business, in accordance with their respective terms;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the contributed business, liabilities or contracts;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any material breach by us or any of our affiliates of the separation agreement or any of the ancillary agreements (that does not contain its own indemnification
provisions); and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in the
registration statement or prospectus relating to our initial public offering or necessary to make the statements in the registration statement or the prospectus relating to our initial public offering not misleading, with respect to all information
contained in or incorporated by reference in such registration statement or prospectus or any other document we filed with the SEC or otherwise used in connection with the initial public offering, except for any statement or omission made in
reliance on and in conformity with written information supplied to us by BMS for use in our initial public offering.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BMS
agreed to indemnify, hold harmless and defend us, each of our affiliates and each of our respective directors, officers, members, managers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from:



| |  |  | the failure of BMS or any affiliate of BMS or any other person or entity to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any liabilities of BMS or its affiliates
other than liabilities associated with the contributed business;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the BMS business or any liability of BMS or its affiliates other than liabilities associated with our separation from BMS; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any material breach by BMS or any of its affiliates of the separation agreement or any of the ancillary agreements (that does not contain its own indemnification
provisions).
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The separation agreement also specifies procedures with respect to claims subject to indemnification and
related matters.

Transitional Services Agreement

Historically BMS has provided significant corporate and shared services functions to us. Our historical financial statements in this Annual Report reflect an allocation of these costs primarily within marketing,
selling and administrative expenses. These allocations include costs related to corporate and shared services functions such as executive oversight, risk management, information technology, accounting, audit, legal, investor relations, human
resources, tax, treasury, procurement and other services.

We and BMS have entered into a transitional services agreement whereby BMS has
agreed to provide us with various corporate support services (BMS Services) following our initial public offering, including: accounting; credit and collection; cash application; information technology; tax; treasury; human resources;
compliance; environmental, health and safety; legal; procurement; audit; research & development; insurance; customs clearance; supply chain management; facilities services; and other general support services.



139

##### Table of Contents

BMS also may provide us with additional services that we and BMS may identify from time to time in the
future. We will provide BMS with certain services under the transitional services agreement (MJN Services) including accounting, credit and collection, order entry, information technology, tax, human resources, customs clearance, supply
chain management, facilities administration and other general support services. Both we and BMS may engage third parties to provide services covered by the transitional services agreement. The BMS Services and the MJN Services will continue for a
specified initial term, which will vary with the types of services to be provided, unless earlier terminated or extended according to the terms of the transitional services agreement.

The transitional services agreement provides that the performance of a service according to the agreement, whether by us or BMS, will not subject the
provider of such service to any liability whatsoever except as directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the service provider. Liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct is limited to the lesser of the price paid for
the particular service or the cost of the services recipient performing the service itself or hiring a third party to perform the service. Under the transitional services agreement, the service provider of each service is indemnified by the
recipient against all third-party claims relating to provision of services or the recipients material breach of a third-party agreement, except where the claim is directly caused by the service providers gross negligence or willful
misconduct. BMS is the service provider and we are the recipient of the majority of the services to be provided under the transitional services agreement.

We will pay BMS mutually agreed-upon fees for the BMS Services and BMS will pay us mutually agreed-upon fees for the MJN Services. The cost of the transitional services agreement in aggregate will be consistent with
general and administrative expenses that BMS has historically allocated or incurred with respect to the BMS Services and the MJN Services.

The terms of the transitional services agreement, including the fees charged for the BMS Services and the MJN Services, are substantially similar to those that would be agreed to by parties bargaining at arms length for similar
services. We believe the payments we will make to BMS and BMS will make to us are reasonable. However, these payments are not necessarily indicative of, and it is not practical for us to estimate, the level of expenses we might incur in procuring
these BMS Services from alternative sources.

Tax Matters Agreement

We and certain of our eligible corporate subsidiaries are included in the affiliated group of corporations that file a consolidated return for U.S. federal income tax purposes, of which BMS is the common parent
corporation, and in certain cases, we or one or more of our subsidiaries may (at BMSs discretion) be included in a combined, consolidated or unitary group with BMS or one or more of its subsidiaries for certain state, local and foreign tax
purposes. We have entered into a tax matters agreement to allocate the responsibility of BMS and its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and us and our subsidiaries, on the other hand, for the payment of taxes resulting from filing (i) tax returns
on a combined, consolidated or unitary basis and (ii) single entity tax returns for entities that have both Mead Johnson and non-Mead Johnson operations.

Pursuant to this tax matters agreement, BMS will prepare returns for us for all periods during which we or any of our subsidiaries are included in a combined, consolidated or unitary group with BMS or any of its
subsidiaries for Federal, state, local or foreign tax purposes, as if we were filing ourselves as a consolidated, combined or unitary group. BMS will also prepare returns for us for all periods during which a single entity tax return is filed for an
entity that has both Mead Johnson and non-Mead Johnson operations. We will make payments to BMS and BMS will make payments to us with respect to such returns, as if such returns were actually required to be filed under the laws of the applicable
taxing jurisdiction and BMS were the relevant taxing authority of such jurisdiction. If and when we and our subsidiaries cease to be included in BMSs consolidated tax returns, BMS will compensate us for tax attributes for which we were not
previously compensated and that BMS used, and we will reimburse BMS for tax attributes for which we were previously compensated but that BMS never used.

Registration Rights Agreement

We have entered into a registration rights agreement with BMS pursuant to which we have granted BMS and its affiliates certain registration rights with respect to our Class A common stock owned by them.

Demand Registration Rights. The registration rights agreement provides that we can be required to effect up to three
registrations of Class A common stock upon the request of BMS. Pursuant to the lock-up arrangements, BMS and its affiliates have agreed not to exercise those rights during the lock-up period without the prior written consent of the
representatives, on behalf of the underwriters.

We are required to pay the registration expenses in connection with each demand
registration. We may decline to honor any of these demand registrations if the size of the offering does not reach a defined threshold or if we have effected a registration within the preceding six months. If we furnish to the stockholder requesting
a demand registration a board resolution stating that in the good faith judgment of the board it would be significantly disadvantageous to us for a registration statement to be filed or maintained effective, we are entitled to withdraw (or decline
to file) such registration statement for a period not to exceed 180 days. In addition, we are not required to file a registration statement under the registration rights agreement prior to the date that is six months after consummation of our
initial public offering.

Piggyback Registration Rights.In addition to our obligations with respect to demand registrations, if we
propose to register any of our securities, other than a registration (1) on Form S-8 or Form S-4, (2) relating to equity securities in connection with employee benefit plans, (3) in connection with an acquisition by us of another
entity or (4) pursuant to a demand registration, we will give each stockholder party to the registration rights agreement the right to participate in such registration. Expenses relating to these registrations are required to be paid by us. If
a majority of the joint-lead bookrunning underwriters in a piggyback registration advise us that the number of securities offered to the public needs to be reduced, first priority for inclusion in the piggyback registration will be given to us and
then to BMS and pro rata to the other piggybacking holders.

Holdback Agreements. If any registration of Class A common stock
is in connection with an underwritten public offering, each holder of unregistered Class A common stock party to the registration rights agreement will agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of any Class A common stock during
the seven days prior to and during the 90-day period beginning on, the effective date of such registration statement and will also agree to enter into a customary lock-up with the underwriters of such offering (not to exceed six months from the date
of consummation of such offering). We will enter into a similar agreement, except that we will be permitted to affect a sale or distribution of Class A common stock in connection with a merger or consolidation, in connection with certain
acquisitions and in connection with employee stock ownership or other similar benefit plans.

Employee Matters Agreement

We have entered into an employee matters agreement with BMS. The employee matters agreement governs BMSs, our and the parties respective
subsidiaries and affiliates rights, responsibilities and obligations after our initial public offering with respect to:



| |  |  | employees and former employees (and their respective dependents and beneficiaries) who are or were associated with BMS, us or the parties respective
subsidiaries or affiliates;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the allocation of assets and liabilities as it relates to certain employee benefit, pension, welfare, compensation, employment, severance and termination-related
matters; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | other human resources, employment and employee benefits matters.

##### Table of Contents

BMS. We have guaranteed the obligations of MJ&C under the 2014 Note. The 2014 Note matures in February 2014 and bears interest at a floating rate per
annum equal to the LIBOR plus 3.00%, payable quarterly. Starting on June 1, 2010 and continuing through December 31, 2013, MJ&C will make quarterly principal payments of $18,750,000 on the 2014 Note. The affirmative and negative
covenants and events of default in the 2014 Note are substantially similar to those contained in our revolving credit facility.

On
February 17, 2009, MJ&C issued a Fixed Rate Note Due 2016 (2016 Note) to E.R. Squibb in the principal amount of $500,000,000. We have guaranteed the obligations of MJ&C under the 2016 Note. The 2016 Note matures in February 2016 and
bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.43%, payable semiannually. The 2016 Note is not subject to amortization payments. The 2016 Note contains covenants that are applicable to the company and its subsidiaries, including restrictions on
liens, sale and leaseback transactions, substantial asset transfers and mergers. Most of these restrictions are subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The 2016 Note does not contain any financial covenants. The 2016 Note has customary
events of default, including (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings and change of control.

On February 17, 2009, MJ&C issued a Fixed Rate Note Due 2019 (2019 Note) to E.R. Squibb in the principal amount of $500,000,000. We have
guaranteed the obligations of MJ&C under the 2019 Note. The 2019 Note matures in February 2019 and bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.91%, payable semiannually. The 2019 Note is not subject to amortization payments. The
affirmative and negative covenants and events of default in the 2019 Note are substantially similar to those contained in the 2016 Note.

The 2014 Note, 2016 Note and 2019 Note collectively evidence indebtedness that previously was outstanding under a $2,000,000,000 intercompany note issued by the company on August 26, 2008.

were for services associated with our initial public offering, which closed on February 17, 2009.

D&T did not provide any other

Pre-Approval Policy for Services Provided by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public
accounting firm consistent with applicable SEC rules. Our independent registered public accounting firm is generally prohibited from performing any management consulting projects, or from providing tax consulting services relating to transactions or
proposals in which the sole purpose may be tax avoidance or for which the tax treatment may not be supported by the Internal Revenue Code. Prior to the engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm for the next years audit,



142



---

##### Table of Contents

management submits an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of the four categories of services described above to the Audit
Committee for approval. Prior to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted by category of service and the Audit Committee receives periodic reports from management and our independent
registered public accounting firm on actual fees versus the budget by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage our independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not
contemplated in the pre-approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging our independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to its Chair. The Chair is required to report, for informational purposes, any pre-approval
decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
