shall for this purpose be deemed to equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration being paid for each Share pursuant to such Corporate Transaction over the exercise price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be deemed
conclusively valid); (II) the substitution of other property (including cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for the Shares subject to outstanding Awards; and (III) in connection with

Retirement or Disability, become exercisable to the extent of the total number of shares subject to the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, irrespective of the extent to which such Award would otherwise have been exercisable pursuant to the terms of
the Award at the date of Retirement or Disability, and shall otherwise remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms; 
 (d)
if termination is by reason of the death of the Participant, each Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by the Participant may be exercised by the Participant’s estate, or by any person who acquires the right to exercise such Award by reason
of the Participant’s death, to the extent of the total number of shares subject to the Award, irrespective of the extent to which such Award would have otherwise been exercisable pursuant to the terms of the Award at the date of death, and such
Award shall otherwise remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

 Section 12. General Provisions Applicable To Awards. 

(a) Awards shall be granted for no cash consideration or for such minimal cash consideration as may be required by applicable law. 

(b) Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other Award. Awards granted
in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards. 

(c) Subject to the terms of the Plan, payments or transfers to be made by the Company upon the grant, exercise or payment of an Award may be
made in such form or forms as the Committee shall determine including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards, or other property, or any combination thereof, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments,
or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or
deferred payments or the grant or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of installment or deferred payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company extend any loan to any Participant in connection with the exercise of an
Award; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Company from maintaining or establishing any broker-assisted cashless exercise program. 

(d) Unless the Committee shall otherwise determine, no Award and no right under any Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or
transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In no event may an Award be transferred by a Participant for value. Each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable during the
Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any Award which has been fully exercised,
earned or paid, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Award in accordance with the terms thereof. 
 (e) All
certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules,
regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then listed, and any applicable Federal or state securities laws, and the Committee may cause a legend
or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
 (f) Assumed Spin-Off Awards. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, each Assumed Spin-Off Award shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the equity compensation
plan and award agreement to which such Award was subject immediately prior to the Spin-Off, subject to the adjustment of such Award by the Compensation Committee of Becton, Dickinson and Company pursuant to
the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement, provided that following the date of the Spin-Off each such Award shall relate solely to Shares and be administered by the Committee in accordance with the
administrative procedures in effect under this Plan. 

  
 -13- 

 (g) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, upon a Change in
Control: 
 (i) All outstanding Awards shall become fully vested and exercisable, all performance targets applicable to such
Awards, if any, shall be deemed to have been met at the greater of target and actual performance (as determined by the Committee as soon as practicable prior to the Change in Control), and any restrictions applicable to such Awards shall
automatically lapse, except to the extent such Awards are (1) assumed by the successor corporation (or an affiliate thereof) or continued, or (2) replaced with an equity award (of the same type as the original Award hereunder, and in
respect of publicly traded securities) that preserves the existing value of the Award at the time of the Change in Control on terms that are no less favorable to the Participant than those applicable to the Award (in each case in clauses
(1) and (2), a “Continuing Award”), in which event such Continuing Awards shall remain outstanding and be governed by their respective terms, subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 12(g).Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, a qualifying Continuing Award may take the form of a continuation of the applicable Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. 

(ii) In the event a Participant holding a Continuing Award is involuntarily terminated without Cause or such Participant
terminates employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) within the two-year period commencing on the Change in Control, then, as of the date of such termination, the Continuing Award shall
become fully vested and exercisable, all performance targets applicable to the Award, if any, shall be deemed to have been met at the greater of target and actual performance (as determined by the Committee as soon as practicable following such
termination), and any other restrictions applicable to any Award shall automatically lapse 
 (iii) For purposes of this
Section 12(g), “Good Reason” means the occurrence (without the Participant’s express written consent) of (A) a reduction in the Participant’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control or as the
same may be increased thereafter from time to time, or a reduction in the Participant’s annual performance incentive award opportunity or equity-based compensation as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control or as the same may be
increased thereafter from time to time that is not in good faith and consistent with past practices, or (B) any change in the location of the Participant’s principal place of employment as it existed immediately prior to the Change in
Control to a location that is more than 25 miles from such principal place of employment. No event described above shall constitute Good Reason unless the Participant gives written notice to the Company of the existence of the event within 90 days
after the initial occurrence of such event and the Company has not remedied such within 30 days of receipt of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant is a party to an employment, severance or change in control agreement, or
covered by a Severance Plan, that includes a definition of “Good Reason,” a “Good Reason” termination with respect to such Participant for purposes of this Plan shall be deemed to occur upon such a termination under such
agreement or plan. 

  
 -14- 

 (iv) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12(g) to the contrary,
any Awards that are otherwise subject to Code Section 409A shall not be distributed or payable upon a Change in Control unless the Change in Control otherwise meets the requirements for a change in the ownership or effective control of the
Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company within the meaning of Code Section 409A and the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder; instead such Awards shall be distributed or payable in
accordance with the Award’s applicable terms. 
 Section 13. Amendments And Termination. 

(a) Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement or in the Plan, the Board
may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) shareholder
approval (A) if the effect thereof is to increase the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan or to expand the class of persons eligible to participate in the Plan or (B) if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax
or regulatory requirement for which or with which the Board deems it necessary or desirable to qualify or comply or (ii) the consent of the affected Participant, if such action would adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any
outstanding Award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary to enable the Plan to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction outside the United States in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with local rules and regulations. In all events, no termination or amendment shall be made in a manner that is inconsistent with the requirements under Code Section 409A
to allow for tax deferral. 
 (b) The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or amend, alter, suspend,
discontinue or terminate, any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any relevant Participant or holder or beneficiary of an Award; provided, however, that no such action shall impair the rights of
any affected Participant or holder or beneficiary under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan; and provided further that, except as provided in Sections 5(e) and 5(f), no such action shall reduce the exercise price, grant price or
purchase price of any Award established at the time of grant thereof. In no event shall an outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right for which the exercise price is less than the Fair Market Value of a Share be cancelled in exchange for cash
or, except as provided in Sections 5(e) and 5(f), replaced with a new Option or Stock Appreciation Right with a lower exercise price, without approval of the Company’s shareholders. 

(c) The Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition
of events (including, without limitation, the events described in Sections 5(e) and 5(f)) affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, whenever the
Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan. 

(d) The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the
extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect or to otherwise comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A so as to avoid adverse tax consequences under Code Section 409A. 

  
 -15- 

 Section 14. Miscellaneous. 

(a) No employee, Participant or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for
uniformity of treatment of employees, Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. 

(b) The Committee may delegate to one or more officers or managers of the Company, or a committee of such officers or managers, the authority,
subject to such terms and limitations as the Committee shall determine, to grant Awards to, or to cancel, modify, waive rights with respect to, alter, discontinue, suspend or terminate Awards held by, employees who are not officers or directors of
the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; provided, however, that any delegation to management shall conform with the requirements of applicable law and with the requirements, if any, of
the New York Stock Exchange, in either case as in effect from time to time. 
 (c) The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award
granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards, or other property) of withholding taxes due in
respect of an Award, its exercise, or any payment or transfer under such Award or under the Plan and to take such other action (including, without limitation, providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash, Shares, other securities, other
Awards or other property by the Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. 

(d) Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation
arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. 
 (e) The grant of an Award
shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or the applicable Affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment, free from any liability,
or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any Award Agreement or in any other agreement binding the parties. The receipt of any Award under the Plan is not intended to confer any rights on the receiving
Participant except as set forth in such Award. 
 (f) If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable
laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the
remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. 
 (g) Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be
construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award,
such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

  
 -16- 

 (h) No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and
the Committee shall determine whether cash, other securities or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares, or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise
eliminated. 
 (i) All Awards shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment to the extent necessary to comply with
any clawback, forfeiture or other similar policy adopted by the Board or the Committee as in effect at the time of the applicable Award grant and applicable Laws. Further, to the extent that the Participant receives any amount in excess of the
amount that the Participant should otherwise have received under the terms of the Award for any reason (including, without limitation, by reason of a financial restatement, mistake in calculations or other administrative error), the Participant
shall be required to repay any such excess amount to the Company. 
 Section 15. Effective Date Of Plan. 

Prior to the Spin-Off, this Plan was approved by the Board and by Becton, Dickinson and Company as the
sole shareowner of the Company. The Plan shall be effective as of the date on which the Spin-Off occurs (the “Effective Date”). 

Section 16. Term Of The Plan. 

No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the
Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and the authority of the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue, or terminate any such Award, or to waive any conditions or rights
under any such Award, and the authority of the Board to amend the Plan, shall extend beyond such date.

FRENCH SUB-PLAN 

TO EMBECTA CORP. 2022 EMPLOYEE AND 

DIRECTOR EQUITY-BASED 

COMPENSATION PLAN 
  

 

	1.	 Introduction and Purpose 

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Embecta Corp. (the “Company”) has established the Embecta Corp. 2022 Employee and
Director Equity-Based Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), as approved by the Company’s shareholders on [DATE], for the benefit of certain employees of the Company and its Affiliates, including any Affiliate established under the laws of
France, of which the Company holds directly or indirectly at least 10% of the outstanding share capital (each a “French Affiliate” and collectively, the “French Affiliates”). 

Section 4(b) of the Plan authorizes the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) to adopt such rules
and regulations (including a sub-plan) as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to implement the Plan for purposes of the grant of awards to Participants outside of the United States. 

The Committee has determined that it is advisable to establish specific rules for the purpose of permitting Restricted Stock Units (hereafter
“RSUs”) and Performance Units (hereafter “PSUs”) granted to employees of a French Affiliate to qualify for the specific tax and social security treatment available for such grants in France. The Committee, therefore, intends to
establish a sub-plan of the Plan (the “French Sub-Plan”) for the purpose of granting RSUs and PSUs that qualify for the specific tax and social security
treatment in France applicable to shares granted for no consideration under Sections L. 225-197-1 to L
225-197-5 and Sections L. 22-10-59 and L. 22-10-60 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, to qualifying employees of a French Affiliate who are residents in France for French income tax purposes and/or subject to the French social security regime
(the “French Participants”). 
 Under the French Sub-Plan, French Participants will be
granted RSUs and PSUs only as defined in Section 2 hereunder. The provisions of the Plan permitting the grant of other types of awards shall not be applicable to grants made under the French Sub-Plan.

 The terms and conditions of this French Sub-Plan modify the Plan as provided below as they relate
to awards made under this French Sub-Plan. They are to be read in conjunction with the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this French Sub-Plan and the Plan, the provisions of this French Sub-Plan shall prevail with respect to grants made hereunder. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined
shall have the same meaning as in the Plan. 

	2.	 Definitions 

For purposes of this French Sub-Plan: 

 

	 	2.1.	 “Affiliate” means companies of which at least
ten-percent (10%) of the equity or voting rights are held, directly or indirectly, by the Company. 

  

	 	2.2.	 “Closed Period” means the specific periods set forth by Section L. 22-10-59 of the French Commercial Code, as amended from time to time, during which the sale or transfer of Shares acquired at vesting of French-qualified RSUs cannot be sold
or transferred, including: (i) the thirty (30) calendar day period before the announcement of an intermediate financial report or end-of-year report that the
Company is required to make public; and (ii) with respect to such persons, any period during which the chief executive officer (directeur général), any deputy chief executive officer (directeur général
délégué), or any member of the board of directors (conseil d’administration), the supervisory board (conseil de surveillance) or the executive board (directoire) of the Company, or any employee
possesses knowledge of inside information (within the meaning of Article 7 of the Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 16, 2014 on market abuse (Market Abuse Regulation) and cancelling the Directive
2003/6/UE and Directives 2003/124/CE Parliament and 2004/72/CE of the Commission) which has not been disclosed to the public. If, after adoption of the French Sub-Plan, French law or regulations are amended to
modify the definition and/or applicability of Closed Periods to Awards granted under this French Sub-Plan, such amendments shall apply to any such Awards granted under this French Sub-Plan, to the extent permitted or required under French law. 

  

	 	2.3.	 “Performance Unit” means an Award defined in Section 2(u) of the Plan that is subject to
a risk of forfeiture during the vesting period of the Award, as determined by the Committee. This Award may not be payable in cash pursuant to this French Sub-Plan. 

 

	 	2.4.	 “Restricted Stock Unit” means an Award defined in Section 2(x) of the Plan that is
subject to a risk of forfeiture during the vesting period of the Award, as determined by the Committee. 

  

	3.	 Eligibility 

 

	 	3.1.	 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, individuals who are eligible to be granted Awards
under this French Sub-Plan shall consist exclusively of employees with a valid employment contract (“contrat de travail”) at grant with, and/or who are corporate officers (with or without an
employment contract), such as listed below, of, the Company or a “French Affiliate: 

  

	 	•	 	 “Président du Conseil d’Administration” (Chairman of the Board); 

 

	 	•	 	 “Directeur Général” (Managing Director); 

 

	 	•	 	 “Directeurs Généraux Délégués” (Delegated Managing Directors);

  

	 	•	 	 Members of the “Directoire” (Executive Directors); 

  
 -19- 

	 	•	 	 “Gérant” of a “Société par Actions” (“Manager of a Joint Stock
Company”); 

  

	 	•	 	 “Président” (if a private individual) d’une Société par Actions
Simplifiée”. 

 For the avoidance of doubt, officers and directors of the Company, or of a French Affiliate(s),
are eligible to be granted Awards under this French Sub-Plan if they have a valid employment contract with one of these entities, or if they are one of the corporate officers listed above. No Award can be
granted under this French Sub-Plan to non-employee members of the “Conseil d’Administration” (the board of directors) of a French Affiliate, or any
consultants and advisors. 
  

	 	3.2.	 In addition, an Award may not be made under this French Sub-Plan
to employees and/or corporate officers holding more that 10% of the issued share capital in the Company or who, after having received Shares under an Award granted hereunder, would hold more than 10% of the issued share capital in the Company.

  

	 	3.3.	 Participants with an Award not granted under this French
Sub-Plan (either prior to or after the date of this French Sub-Plan) may also be covered by this French Sub-Plan, provided that
the Committee amends the terms of such Award to comply with the terms of this French Sub-Plan prior to the vesting of the Award. In this case, an amended Award Agreement will be sent to the Participants within
three (3) months following such amendment. 

  

	4.	 Administration 

No modification can be made to this French Sub-Plan that would adversely affect the rights of a French
Participant, or which is in contradiction to the French Commercial Code and French Tax Code provisions, without the consent of the French Participant, unless the modification is the result of a new law or regulation or any other legal obligation
applicable to the Company or any French Affiliate. 
 The terms of this French Sub-Plan shall be
interpreted by the Committee in accordance with the relevant provisions set forth by French tax and social laws, as well as the regulations issued by the French tax and social administrations. 

 

	5.	 Shares available for Awards 

 

	 	5.1.	 Notwithstanding the provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the total number of Shares that may be
granted to French Participants under this French Sub-Plan shall not exceed 10% of the Company’s share capital at grant. Outstanding unvested Awards issued under the Plan shall be treated as outstanding
Shares in order to determine the threshold of 10% of the Company’s share capital. 

  

	 	5.2.	 Awards under this French Sub-Plan will be settled only by
delivery of Shares to the French Participants. Shares of the Company to be delivered under this French Sub-Plan may be treasury shares or newly issued shares. 

  
 -20- 

 For Awards to be settled by the issuance of treasury shares, the shares shall have been
repurchased by the Company at least one day before the applicable Vesting Date. 
 Shares acquired by the French Participant as a result of
the vesting of the Award issued under this French Sub-Plan shall be maintained in an account in the name of the French Participant with the Company, a broker or in such other manner as the Company may
otherwise determine to ensure compliance with applicable law. A French Participant shall have the voting and dividends rights with respect to the Shares as of the date the Participant becomes the owner of such Shares. 

 

	 	5.3.	 In connection with any adjustment under Sections 5(e) and 5(f) of the Plan, the Committee shall take all
the necessary steps to determine the impact of such adjustment on the income tax and social security treatment of Awards made to French Participants under this French Sub-Plan and whenever possible, to
maintain the tax and social security treatment of the Awards; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent the Committee from making any such adjustment. The Committee shall inform such Participants of any such adjustment. 

 

	6.	 Restricted Stock Units 

 

	 	6.1.	 With respect to RSUs granted to French Participants in France under this French Sub-Plan, the vesting schedule determined by the Committee, as mentioned in the Award Agreement, is applicable to the Awards governed by this French Sub-Plan. Unless the
Committee decides otherwise, such vesting period shall be not less than two (2) years de minimis, as defined in Section L.225-197-1 of the French Commercial
Code. 

  

	 	6.2.	 In the event the vesting schedule or an accelerated vesting of an RSU would result in the vesting of the
Award (in whole or in part) after the first anniversary of the grant date (the “Minimum Vesting Period”), but prior to the second anniversary of the grant date, a mandatory Share Sale Restriction Period (as defined below) of a minimum one
(1) year shall apply to the Shares received upon vesting, as described below. The applicability of the Share Sale Restriction Period will be indicated in the Award Agreement. 

 

	 	6.3.	 Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, unless an Award of RSUs (i) vests after
the second anniversary of the grant date or (ii) vests after the Minimum Vesting Period (except in case of a French Participant death or disability of second (2nd) or third (3rd) category as defined as per Section
L.341-4 of the French Social Security Code) and the Shares distributed upon vesting are subject to the Share Sale Restriction Period provided by the French Commercial Code and the Award Agreement, the Award
shall be considered as non-qualified for French income tax and social security purposes. 

  
 -21- 

	 	6.4.	 

  

	 	(i)	 If an Award granted under this French Sub-Plan vests, in whole or in
part, as determined in the Award Agreement, after the Minimum Vesting Period but prior to the second anniversary of the grant date, Shares acquired pursuant to the Award shall be subject to a minimum of one (1) year Share Sale Restriction
starting from the vesting date (the “Share Sale Restriction Period”), during which the Shares may not be sold other than in the circumstances set out in paragraph (iii) below. If the Participant ceases employment with the Company, or
any Affiliate, at any time after such vesting, the Shares acquired shall nonetheless not be freely transferable before the expiration of the Share Sale Restriction Period. 

 

	 	(ii)	 At the end of the above Share Sale Restriction Period (if applicable) or at the end of the Vesting Period (if
no Share Sale Restriction Period is applicable), the Shares shall not be sold if doing so would violate any rule that prohibits trading while aware of material non-public information of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) or the “Autorité des Marchés Financiers” (AMF), or any relevant securities law. 

  

	 	(iii)	 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of the French Participant’s death
during the Share Sale Restriction Period, the person or persons to whom the Shares are transferred by will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution shall not be subject to the Share Sale Restriction Period, the Shares being freely
transferable upon the French Participant’s death. 

  

	 	(iv)	 If the French Participant ceases employment with the Company or any French Affiliate(s) due to Disability
within the 2nd and 3rd categories as defined as per Section L.341-4 of the French Social Security Code during the Share Sale Restriction Period, the Share Sale Restriction Period shall be accelerated and
deemed to have lapsed. Such provisions shall not constitute a disqualified event for French income tax and social security. 

  

	7.	 Performance Units 

 

	 	7.1.	 Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan and this French
Sub-Plan to the contrary, in case of the French Participant’s death, an Award of Performance Units granted under this French Sub-Plan shall vest in full, and the
person or persons to whom the Shares are transferred by will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution shall be entitled to request the Shares underlying the Performance Units within six (6) months following such death.

  

	 	7.2.	 Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, in the event of an accelerated vesting provided by the
Plan (except in case of a French Participant’s death or Disability), Awards that do not comply with the Minimum Vesting Period and Share Sale Restriction Period (if applicable) provided by the French Commercial Code and the Award Agreement
shall be considered as non-qualified for French income tax and social security purposes. 

  
 -22- 

	 	7.3.	 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Shares received upon vesting of an Award
of Performance Units shall not be sold if doing so would violate any rule that prohibits trading while aware of material non-public information of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or the
“Autorité des Marchés Financiers” (AMF), or any relevant securities law. 

  

	8.	 General Provisions Applicable to Awards 

 

	 	8.1.	 Any Shares acquired pursuant to RSUs and Performance Units granted under this French Sub-Plan may not be sold or otherwise transferred during a Closed Period. 

  

	 	8.2.	 RSUs and Performance Units granted under this French Sub-Plan
are granted for no cash consideration. 

  

	 	8.3.	 A French Participant granted an RSU or Performance Unit Award under this French Sub-Plan shall have no shareholder rights, including the right to vote or to receive dividends, until such Award is duly vested and the legal ownership of shares is transferred to the Participant.

  

	 	8.4.	 Upon occurrence of a Change of Control, the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement
shall apply to French Participants. In such event, the Committee, in its discretion, may authorize the acceleration of the vesting date of an Award granted hereunder and/or the cancellation of the Share Sale Restriction Period. However, when a tax
favorable treatment may be available further to French legislation, the Committee, in its discretion, may give the choice to French Participants. 

In the event the Company exchange Shares for other securities (but for no cash consideration) pursuant to applicable French legal and tax
rules, then the provisions of the Plan as well as the periods of vesting and Share Sale Restriction (if applicable) will remain applicable to shares or rights received in exchange. 

 

	9.	 Miscellaneous 

 

	 	9.1.	 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this French
Sub-Plan to the contrary, no Shares issued pursuant to an Award granted under this French Sub-Plan may be sold prior to the lapse of the Share Sale Restriction Period to
satisfy any social security or tax withholding due for such Awards. 

 The Company or its Affiliates shall have the right
to require payment from a Participant to cover any applicable withholding or other employment taxes due with respect to Awards granted hereunder or shall have the right to deduct any applicable withholding or other employment taxes due from other
compensation income paid to the French Participant. 

  
 -23- 

 The French Affiliate that employs the French Participant is responsible for withholding
employees’ social security charges in the event that they are due. However, the French Participants remain responsible for bearing the costs of employees’ social security charges. 

 

	 	9.2.	 The adoption of this French Sub-Plan shall not confer upon any
French Participants or any other employee of a French Affiliate, any employment rights and shall not be construed as a part of any employment contracts that a French Affiliate has with its employees or create any employment relationship with the
Company.

I am pleased to confirm in writing our offer of employment to you. The details of your offer are as follows: 

Start Date: Your first day of employment will be no later than March 15, 2021. 

Position: Your position is WW President - Diabetes Care (henceforth referred to as ‘Berra’), reporting directly to me, with business
accountability to Alberto Mas, President - Medical as a member of Medical Segment Leadership team. Your position is classified as a Job Group 9. Positions are assigned to Job Groups according to the scope and impact of the position. 

Base Pay: Your base annual rate of pay will be $700,000 subject to review and modification from time to time in accordance with standard Company
practices. Associates are paid every other Friday, one week in arrears (i.e., your paycheck will cover the two-week period that ended the week before payday). The official BD workweek starts on Sunday and runs
through Saturday. 
 Performance Incentive Plan (PIP): As of your employment commencement date, you will be eligible to participate in the
Company’s annual bonus plan, which is known as the Performance Incentive Plan (PIP). Your PIP target will be 85% of your then-current base annual rate of pay. Your FY21 PIP award will be guaranteed at target and prorated from your start date.

 Sign-On Bonus: You will receive a sign-on cash bonus of $200,000 (less applicable taxes), payable within 30 days following your start date. Your sign-on bonus is conditioned upon your continued employment with
BD for twelve months following receipt of the payment. If you voluntarily terminate your employment other than for Good Reason (as defined below) within twelve months of your receipt of the award, you will be required to reimburse the Company,
within 60 days of your employment termination date, an after-tax pro-rated portion of the respective sign-on bonus based on
months of completed service. 
 Long-Term Incentive Program (LTI): Under the 2004 Employee and Director Equity-Based Compensation Plan, you will be
eligible to participate in BD’s discretionary Long-Term Incentive (LTI) program. The LTI program provides associates with a potential opportunity to build wealth and share in the success of the Company through the achievement of strategic
objectives. The BD annual target grant award value for your position is $2,000,000, and annual awards for executives at your level are delivered in the form of Time Vested Units (TVUs) – 20%, Performance Units (PSUs) – 40%, and Stock
Appreciation Rights (SARs) – 40%. TVUs vest one third (1/3) per year after the grant date, PSUs vest 100% after three years, and SARs vest one fourth (1/4) per year after the grant date, subject to continued employment. Annual LTI awards are
determined based on individual anticipated future contributions and are discretionary; there is no guarantee that an associate will receive an LTI grant in a particular year. Grants for each fiscal year are subject to approval by the BD Board of
Directors. More details will be communicated to you under separate cover upon approval of any grant under this program. All LTI grants, including the Sign-on Equity Grant described below will be treated
similarly to other Company employees that transition to Berra. 
 Sign-on Equity Grant: In addition to your
eligibility for an annual grant, shortly after hire, you will receive a one-time LTI grant valued at $2,000,000, under the 2004 Employee and Director Equity-Based Compensation Plan. This LTI grant will be
delivered in the form of TVUs (20%), PSUs (40%), and SARs (40%), with vesting as described above. 
 This grant is subject to the Terms and Conditions
associated with your LTI award, the Data Protection Notice and Consent, and the provisions of the official Plan. Your award will also include confidentiality protections and restrictive covenants (non-compete,
non-solicit and non-disclosure of confidential information provisions). You must accept your award within 75 days from the grant date, or your award will be forfeited
and cancelled. 
 Rewards: You are eligible for a comprehensive, competitive compensation program that rewards talented associates for their
performance. Our Total Rewards program is designed to support the diverse needs of our global workforce, and make a difference for you at work, at home and in your future, while driving BD’s overall success. We encourage you to make the most of
the many programs offered. 
 Benefits include medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance, as well as various other valuable programs for you
and your eligible dependents. Each of these is either fully paid by BD or offered subject to an employee contribution as of your first day of employment. You will have 31 days from your date of hire to make benefit elections for the remainder of
the calendar year. If you do not make an election within the required time frame, you will receive default coverage. Details regarding these plans will follow shortly under separate mailing (or e-mail)
from our benefits administrator, Benefits Direct. You may enroll in your benefits coverage by going to the BD Intranet site: Maxwell–HROne–Connect to Benefits Direct. For questions about your benefits you may call Benefits Direct at 1-800-234-9855 and speak with a Customer Service Representative.

 We also offer a competitive elective 401(k) Plan with company match and
pre-tax, post-tax and Roth contribution options. You may enroll or make changes to your contribution by going to the Fidelity website at www.401k.com or by calling 1-866-715-2068. If you do not make an active election within 60 days of your date of hire, you will be automatically enrolled in the
BD 401(k) plan with a 6% Pre-tax contribution rate.  
 You are also eligible to receive an annual non-elective company-provided contribution into the 401(k) Plan. This contribution will occur automatically and does not require an election. The contribution will be made in January of each year, assuming you are
employed with BD through 12/31 of the prior year. 
 Deferred Compensation Plan: You will be eligible to participate in the non-qualified BD Deferred Compensation Plan, which enables you to save over the IRS limits in the qualified 401(k) plan. You may elect to enroll in this plan within 30 days from the first day of your employment or
annually in December. You may contribute up to 50% of your total eligible base pay and 100% of your eligible bonus compensation. Enrollment information will be sent to you by Fidelity Investments, our financial benefits service provider. 

Travel Expenses: BD will pay for your travel expenses based on agreed upon travel from Minneapolis to Franklin Lakes until the Berra spin-off (described below). 
 BD Share Retention and Ownership: Your position is subject to the BD Share Retention
and Ownership Guidelines. Under the guidelines, you will be expected to hold in BD shares at least 50% of the net after-tax gain or net after-tax shares distributed
to you from any equity-based compensation awards you have received until you have achieved and can maintain an ownership multiple of one (1.0) times your annual salary. More information will follow under separate cover shortly after your start
date. 
 Change in Control: Upon hire we will provide you with a BD Change of Control Agreement applicable to similarly situated executives of BD.

 Paid Time Off: You will be eligible for 4 weeks of vacation. You will also be eligible for paid company holidays in accordance with Company
policy. 
 Compensation at Spin-Off: It is contemplated that within the coming months, BD will spin off Berra
into a new publicly owned corporation (“NewCo”). Upon the effective date of the Berra spin-off, you will be appointed CEO of NewCo. Upon the spin-off and your
appointment as CEO of NewCo, BD will pay you an FY22 BD PIP award calculated based on your BD target and prorated from the start of the fiscal year to the date of the spin-off. You will receive the following
compensation as CEO of NewCo: 
  

	 	•	 	 Base salary of $825,000 

 

	 	•	 	 Annual bonus target of 110% of annual base salary 

 

	 	•	 	 Annual LTI target of $4,000,000. For clarity, if the Berra spin-off
occurs prior to BD’s annual LTI grant in November, at the time of the spin-off you will receive a NewCo LTI award with a grant value equal to $4,000,000. If the
spin-off occurs after BD’s annual LTI grant, at the time of the spin-off you will receive a NewCo LTI award with a grant value equal to the difference between your
BD annual LTI grant and $4,000,000 

  

	 	•	 	 You will receive a 3-year cliff-vesting NewCo “Founders Grant”
with a grant value equal to $4,000,000, delivered in the form of SARs (50%) and TVUs (50%).

 All other NewCo executive compensation and governance programs and benefit plans will be established by the
NewCo Board of Directors in good faith and consistent with generally accepted market practices and will apply post spin-off.
