DEFINITIONS 
 The following
terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined elsewhere in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Distribution Agreement. Unless the context clearly

PATENT AND KNOW HOW LICENSE GRANTS 

2.01 Specific license grants from Licensor to Licensee are set forth in Appendix A—H. The licenses in this Agreement include the right to
sublicense to Affiliates. However, unless otherwise specifically provided in the license grants of Appendix A—H, the licenses in this Agreement do not include the right to sub-license to any other third party. The license grants are limited to
the Patents and Know How specifically enumerated in each Appendix and do not include any rights to Know How or Patents that are not listed or improvements to Patents or Know How made by either party after the Effective Date of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Licensor chooses in their sole discretion to pursue patent protection for an invention that is the subject to a license by being included as Know How, Licensee will have rights to any Patent that
matures from such an invention commensurate with the rights Licensor has to the Patents in the subject license. 
 2.02 Nothing in this
Agreement shall obligate Licensor to maintain any or all licensed Patents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Licensor decides to allow a Patent to lapse or become abandoned, Licensor shall take reasonable efforts to provide notice of
such decision to Licensee at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of lapse or abandonment of the Patent. Licensee then has up to ten (10) business days following such notification to inform Licensor as to whether or not it will take
action to prevent the lapse or abandonment of the Patent and have ownership of the Patent transferred to Licensee. A lack of timely response by the Licensee shall be deemed to indicate that the Licensee has no interest in the Patent that is slated
to lapse or be abandoned. Any action taken by Licensee to prevent the lapse or abandonment of a Patent and have ownership transferred to Licensee shall be at Licensee’s expense. 

2.03 Licensor acknowledges that the grant of an exclusive license to any trade secrets by this Agreement does not limit the ability of the
Licensee or a third party to independently develop the subject matter of any such licensed trade secret, or in the event of such independent development, create a cause of action for the Licensor. 

2.04 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Halyard and its Affiliates may continue selling or otherwise transferring
Medical Products to Existing Health Care Customers with the benefit of the license(s) set forth in this Agreement.

Agreement between Avent and KCWW effective October 30, 2014.
 ARTICLE 3 

CONFIDENTIALITY 
 3.01
Neither party shall, without the prior written consent of the other party, directly or indirectly disclose to any third party, or permit anyone on its behalf to disclose to any third-party, any Confidential Information obtained pursuant to and/or in
connection with this Agreement, and both parties shall use such measures to protect all such Confidential Information that it would use in the protection of its own confidential information, and in any event no less than reasonable care. The
obligations in this Section 3.01 shall continue during the term of this Agreement and for ten (10) years thereafter (or such shorter period as required by applicable law); provided that with respect to any Confidential Information that is
protectable as a trade secret, such obligations shall continue in perpetuity (or until the earlier occurrence of one of the exceptions in Section 3.02). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article 3 will not preclude the owner of Confidential
Information from seeking patent protection concerning such Confidential Information. 
 3.02 The obligations under Section 3.01 shall
not apply to Confidential Information that, as evidenced by written documentation: (a) was received by such party on a non-confidential basis from a third party having the right to impart such information; (b) was generally known or
generally available to the public prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement; (c) is independently developed without the benefit of the Confidential Information; or (d) becomes generally known or generally available to the public after
the Effective Date of this Agreement through no act or failure to act on the part of such party. Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be part of the public domain merely because such information may be contained within substantially less
specific broad disclosures or combinations of disclosures. 
 ARTICLE 4 

MARKING 
 For the life of
the U.S. Patents, both parties shall mark in accordance with applicable laws all products sold, offered for sale, or otherwise disposed of by it within the United States, its territories, or possessions, with the word “Patent” or

patents included on some other publicly available location such as an internet site. 
 ARTICLE 5 

INFRINGEMENTS OF PATENTS

such steps as Licensor in its sole discretion shall deem advisable to abate infringements of Patents, including, if Licensor shall so decide, the bringing of a lawsuit. When requested by Licensor, Licensee may at its sole discretion cooperate,
at Licensor’s expense, in the conduct of such lawsuit. After deductions for expenses incurred, Licensor and Licensee shall participate on a fair and equitable basis in any money damages recovered. 

  
 Page 5 

 5.02 Should Licensor elect not to bring a lawsuit with respect to infringement of any Patent,
Licensee may, with Licensor’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, bring a lawsuit, either in Licensee’s own name or jointly with Licensor. Licensee shall be solely responsible for any and all costs associated
with such lawsuits and including costs related to the defense of any counterclaim thereto and/or any civil or administrative challenges as to the validity of the Patent. When requested by Licensee, Licensor may at its sole discretion cooperate,
at Licensee’s expense, in the conduct of such lawsuit. After deductions for expenses incurred, Licensor and Licensee shall participate on a fair and equitable basis in any money damages recovered.

 Exhibit 10.5 

TRADEMARK LICENSE AGREEMENT 

This Trademark License Agreement (this “Agreement”), effective as of October 30, 2014 (the “Effective
Date”), is made and entered by and between Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Licensor”); and Avent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Licensee”). 

RECITALS 

WHEREAS, Licensor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kimberly-Clark Corporation
(“Kimberly-Clark”) and, as of the Effective Date, Licensee will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halyard Health, Inc. (“Halyard”); and 

WHEREAS, Licensor has adopted, used and is the owner of certain trademarks for certain goods, as
identified below; and 
 WHEREAS, Licensor wishes to grant to Licensee, and Licensee desires to obtain
from Licensor, a license to use said trademarks on or in connection with the manufacture, distribution, marketing, advertising, promotion and sale of medical and healthcare products and related services, on the terms and conditions described in this
Agreement; 
 AGREEMENT 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and obligations
contained herein, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
following meanings. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined elsewhere in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Distribution Agreement by and between

Kimberly-Clark Competitor.  
 1.3 “Consumer Products” shall mean devices, products, articles or merchandise of
common or frequent use, ordinarily bought by individuals or households for private consumption from a retail outlet or otherwise obtained or provided direct to the consumer. Consumer Products expressly includes Kimberly-Clark Consumer Products.

Uses.”

3. Compliance Issues 

3.1 Form of Use. Licensee shall use the Licensed Marks only in forms and presentations that have been approved in advance, in writing,
by Licensor. All forms and presentations in use by Kimberly-Clark’s Global Health Care Business as of the Effective Date are hereby deemed approved by Licensor. Once any such form or presentation has been approved by Licensor, Licensee’s
use of the Licensed Marks in such form or presentation shall not be restricted; provided, however, that Licensor may, for Good Reason (as defined herein) object to a previously-approved form or presentation by giving Licensee written notice of
Licensor’s objection and the reasons for the objection (a “Notice of Objection”). Licensee shall timely comply with and correct all objections set forth in the Notice of Objection. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good
Reason” shall mean a reason based on trademark law principles (including but not limited to principles relating to maintenance of trademark validity and/or integrity, proper trademark usage, and brand identity) that, in Licensor’s
opinion, justifies Licensor’s objection, so long as such Notice of Objection proposes an alternative form or presentation that is as similar to the previously-approved form or presentation as is consistent, in Licensor’s opinion, with such
trademark law principles. 
 3.2 Marking. Licensee shall include, where appropriate and as requested by Licensor, agreed-to
trademark markings or legends for the Licensed Marks. Licensee shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations pertaining to the proper use and designation of trademarks.  

  
 - 5 - 

 3.3 Use of Other Marks. Licensee shall not use during the term of this Agreement or
thereafter without the written consent of Licensor any name, mark, designation or design that is likely to cause confusion with any of the Licensed Marks, including any mark (other than the Licensed Marks) that begins with or includes

 4. Quality Control and Use of Licensed Marks 

4.1 Quality Control. Licensor shall at all times retain the right, in its sole discretion, to control the nature and quality of all
Medical Products in accordance with applicable trademark law. Licensee shall comply with all requests or instructions of Licensor relating to the nature or quality of the Medical Products, and shall comply with all quality control guidelines of
Licensor, as adopted from time to time by Licensor in writing and provided to Licensee. Licensor and Licensee intend the quality control provisions of this Section 4 to require Licensee to maintain the nature and quality of the Medical Products
as required by Licensor, so as to maintain the validity and integrity of the Licensed Marks, as required by applicable law. 
 4.2
Quality Standards. In furtherance of its quality control rights and obligations set forth in Section 4.1 above, Licensor has furnished to Licensee quality standards applicable to goods bearing the Licensed Marks as of the Effective Date.
Licensee shall ensure that all Medical Products conform to the quality standards historically associated with the products of Licensor on which the Licensed Marks have been used prior to the Effective Date, and with such quality standards as
Licensor may reasonably adopt after the Effective Date and communicate in writing to Licensee. Licensee represents that, as a principal part of its business, it has acquired all the necessary and appropriate knowledge, skill, experience and
expertise to enable it to manufacture, inspect, test, approve, market, advertise, promote, distribute and sell Medical Products in compliance with Licensor’s existing quality standards, including with respect to their performance and safety, in
compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and acknowledges and agrees that, as a result thereof, Licensor may reasonably rely on Licensee to regularly ensure that all Medical Products comply with such quality standards, laws and
regulations. Nothing contained herein, however, shall preclude or limit Licensor’s right or ability to inspect any Medical Products or to determine, in Licensor’s reasonable discretion, whether such Medical Products comply with the quality
standards communicated by Licensor to Licensee in accordance with this Section 4.2. Licensee shall cooperate fully with Licensor, as requested by Licensor, in connection with any such inspection or determination by Licensor. Licensor and
Licensee agree that any subsequent adoption of different quality standards with which Licensee must comply may be made to maintain compliance of all Medical Products with applicable laws and regulations, and Licensor agrees that any different
quality control standards adopted during the term of this Agreement shall be reasonable and consistent with the nature and qualities of the products of Licensor on which the Licensed Marks have been used in the past.  

4.3 Compliance with Law. Licensee shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations and obtain all appropriate government approvals
pertaining to its use of the Licensed Marks, including the Licensed Uses and Licensee’s manufacture, sale, distribution, marketing, advertising and promotion of products on or in connection with which the Licensed Marks are used.  

  
 - 6 - 

 4.4 No Disparagement of Licensor or Licensed Marks. Licensee shall not use the Licensed
Marks in connection with any activity that disparages Licensor, its products or services, or the Licensed Marks. 
 4.5
Licensor’s Maintenance of Licensed Marks. Licensor shall take no actions that derogate or devalue the Licensed Marks, and agrees to make reasonable efforts to maintain the goodwill of the Licensed Marks, as well as any registrations for,
and applications for registration of, the Licensed Marks. Licensee agrees to cooperate with Licensor or its representatives by timely obtaining and/or submitting to Licensor or its representatives, as requested by Licensor, documents, information,
specimens, verified or sworn statements, assignments or other documents reasonably believed by Licensor to be necessary in order to maintain such registrations or prosecute applications for the Licensed Marks. 

5. Ownership 
 5.1
Ownership of Licensed Marks. Licensee acknowledges that Licensor will remain the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Marks. Licensee agrees that any goodwill in the Licensed Marks resulting from
Licensee’s use of the Licensed Marks under this Agreement will inure solely to the benefit of Licensor and will not create any right, title or interest of Licensee (including any ownership right by Licensee) in or to the Licensed Marks.

 5.2 No Contest. Licensee shall not contest, oppose or challenge Licensor’s ownership of the Licensed Marks or the validity
thereof. Licensee will do nothing to impair Licensor’s ownership or rights in the Licensed Marks. In particular, Licensee shall not register or attempt to register any of the Licensed Marks, alone or with other words or designs, in any country
or jurisdiction, and will not oppose or contest Licensor’s application(s) to register, registration(s) or permitted use(s) of the Licensed Marks in any jurisdiction.  

5.3 Adverse Use and Enforcement 

(a) Notice. Each party shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any legal proceeding or action instituted against such party
arising out of the use of or involving the Licensed Marks. Each party shall also promptly notify the other party in writing should such party learn of use by an unauthorized third party of any mark that may be confusingly similar to, infringe or
otherwise violate Licensor’s rights in one or more of the Licensed Marks or Licensee’s exclusive rights under this Agreement. 

(b) Enforcement. Except as provided for below, Licensor shall have the sole right and discretion to enforce its rights in any of the
Licensed Marks, including but not limited to the right to bring infringement, unfair competition, dilution or false advertising proceedings involving any of the Licensed Marks. Licensee shall cooperate fully to assist Licensor and its attorneys or
other authorized agents, at Licensor’s expense, with any legal, equitable, administrative, regulatory or other proceeding or action taken by Licensor against a  

  
 - 7 - 

 
third party to protect the Licensed Marks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, within twenty (20) days of Licensor’s receipt of a notice from Licensee in accordance with paragraph
(a) above, Licensor does not agree in writing to bring or take action to terminate such activities of the unauthorized third party, or if Licensor subsequently decides not to proceed with any such action, and if Licensee has a good faith belief
that such activities have or will injure its rights under this Agreement, then Licensee may take such action as is reasonably necessary to halt such activities including filing suit, after providing written notice to Licensor at least seven
(7) days in advance of taking such action. Whichever party takes action against such activities shall be responsible for the costs and fees of such action including payment of both Licensor’s and Licensee’s attorneys’ fees, costs
and expenses, and the other party shall, if requested, cooperate in such action as shall be reasonably necessary (including joining as a party plaintiff to the extent necessary and requested by the other party), but again at the cost of the party
taking action. Any monies recovered as a result of such action shall first be used to pay the legal expenses of the party that took such action and the legal fees of the party cooperating in such action and any remaining amounts after reimbursement
of such fees shall be retained by, paid to or recovered by the party that initiated the action. 
 6. Indemnification 

6.1 By Licensor. Licensor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Licensee and its respective parents, subsidiaries, and otherwise
related entities, agents, servants, current and former officers, directors and employees, shareholders, attorneys, successors and assigns, against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, settlement amounts and expenses (including expenses
of litigation and/or attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with any claims, legal proceedings or actions instituted or asserted against Licensee or Licensor for trademark infringement arising out of Licensee’s use of the
Licensed Marks in accordance with this Agreement (an “Indemnified Claim”); and Licensor shall defend or settle any such claims, legal proceedings or actions instituted against Licensee or Licensor at no expense to Licensee or
Licensee’s Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, or authorized sales representatives; PROVIDED THAT Licensee shall give to Licensor prompt written notice of any Indemnified Claim following Licensee’s receipt of written notification
of such claim, legal proceeding or action instituted by a third party against Licensee; and PROVIDED FURTHER THAT Licensee shall not enter into any negotiation or settlement regarding any Indemnified Claim and shall provide to Licensor the full
authority to defend or settle the claim. Licensee shall cooperate fully in the defense of such claim at Licensor’s expense. Licensee may participate in any such claim at its own expense with counsel of its choosing.  

6.2 By Licensee. Except with respect to Indemnified Claims as defined in the foregoing Section, Licensee shall defend, indemnify and
hold harmless Licensor and its respective parents, subsidiaries, and otherwise related entities, agents, servants, current and former officers, directors and employees, shareholders, attorneys, successors and assigns, against all claims,
liabilities, damages, losses, costs, settlement amounts and expenses (including expenses of litigation and/or attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with any claims, legal proceedings or actions instituted or asserted against Licensee

8.1 Non-assignment/Binding Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any rights under this Agreement may be assigned or otherwise
transferred by Licensee, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, including by way of sale of assets, merger or consolidation, or Change of Control without the prior written consent of Licensor, which consent will not be

(30) days advance written notice of such assignment and the proposed transferee entity represents in writing to Licensor that it shall have the authority and will in fact assume and discharge all obligations of Licensee under this Agreement.
Licensor expressly reserves its unilateral right to assign or transfer its interest in this Agreement, provided Licensor gives Licensee at least thirty (30) days advance written notice of such assignment. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Any assignment in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

be deemed to be an employee, agent, partner, or legal representative of the other for any purpose and neither will have any right, power or authority to create any obligation or responsibility on behalf of the other. Nothing herein shall be

remedies under this Agreement must be in writing to be effective and signed by the party being charged with waiver. Failure, neglect, or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or its rights or remedies at any time, will not be
construed as a waiver of such party’s rights under this Agreement and will not in any way affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party’s right to take subsequent action. No exercise or enforcement
by either party of any right or remedy under this Agreement will preclude the enforcement by such party of any other right or remedy under this Agreement or that such party is entitled by law to enforce. 

8.7 Severability. If any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement are declared void, invalid, unlawful or unenforceable by any
judicial or administrative authority having proper jurisdiction over the parties and after all appeals have been exhausted, this declaration shall not, in and of itself, nullify the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in force
and effect unless the severing of such term, condition or provision adversely and materially affects the original intent of the parties or the validity of the Licensed Marks; in which event, this Agreement may terminate on sixty (60) days
written notice from one party to the other, provided that the parties have first made reasonable, good faith efforts to reach agreement on modifying such term or condition to fulfill as closely as possible the original intent and purpose thereof.

 8.8 Integration. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement and supersedes all previous communications, representations, understandings and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect to said subject matter. No terms, provisions or conditions of any purchase order,
acknowledgement or other business form that either party may use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will have any effect on the rights, duties or obligations of the parties under, or otherwise modify, this Agreement,
regardless of any failure of a receiving party to object to such terms, provisions or conditions. This Agreement may not be amended, except by a writing signed by both parties. 

8.9 Choice of Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the federal trademark
laws of the United States of America as to trademark issues and the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, as though all acts and omissions related hereto occurred in Delaware, as to contract formation, interpretation and construction. The
Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the

 EXHIBIT A 

ROYALTIES 
 A. The license
granted in this Agreement shall bear royalties at the rate of three-fourths of one percent (0.75%), payable each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement, commencing on the Effective Date. 

B. Licensee shall remit to Licensor, within thirty (30) days after the close of each calendar quarter, an accounting of all royalties due
to Licensor, accompanied by payment of such royalties in U.S. dollars. The royalties shall be calculated by multiplying the royalty rate set forth in paragraph A above by the Net Sales by Licensee of Medical Products during the preceding calendar
quarter, exclusive of taxes and less returns during such period. The term “Net Sales” shall be consistent with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America as applied by Licensor in publishing its annual
reports. Licensee shall report such royalties on the form prescribed by Licensor, which shall identify all Medical Products and state the volume and Net Sales for each Licensed Product with specificity. 

C. Licensee shall not be obligated to pay royalties to Licensor based on any sales by Licensee of any Medical Products that were in
Licensor’s inventory as of the Effective Date and are transferred to Licensee. Licensor and Licensee shall agree, in writing, as to the value of such inventory, and Licensee may deduct from its royalty payments to Licensor any royalties that
would otherwise be payable to Licensor based on the sales of such inventory by Licensee. Licensee shall report all such sales to Licensor in Licensee’s accountings in accordance with paragraph B above, and may make such deduction(s) either as
one or more lump-sum deduction(s) from its initial royalty payment(s) or on a rolling basis, as such inventory is sold by Licensee. 
 D.
Licensee shall keep complete and accurate books and records relating to Licensee’s sales of Medical Products, and Licensor shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to Licensee but no more frequently than once every two (2) years, to
have an independent certified public accountant of Licensor’s choice to audit such books and records at Licensor’s expense. If any such audit finds that Licensee has under-reported or underpaid the royalties due to Licensor under this
Agreement, Licensee shall remit to Licensor all unpaid royalties within thirty (30) days after the receipt by Licensee of the report of the audit. If any such audit finds that Licensee has under-reported or underpaid royalties by more than five
