On November 16, 2017, Teleflex Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with the subsidiaries of the Company named as guarantors therein (the “Guarantors”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, on behalf of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”) and Guggenheim Securities, LLC as underwriter and independent underwriter, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes were offered and sold in a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Offering”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-211276) as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No.1 thereto. On November 20, 2017, the Company issued and sold to the Underwriters $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes upon payment pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors have agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities and contribute to payments which the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of any such liabilities.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes will be approximately $491.2 million, after deducting the Underwriters’ discounts and commissions and estimated net offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds to repay approximately $491.2 million of borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the copy thereof which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
