I, Stanley M. Bergman, certify that:
 
1.
 
I have reviewed this annual report on Form

-
K of Henry Schein, Inc.
 
(the “registrant”)
;
 
2.
 
Based
 
on my
 
knowledge, this
 
report
 
does
 
not
 
contain any
 
untrue statement
 
of
 
a material
 
fact or
 
omit to
 
state a
material
 
fact
 
necessary
 
to
 
make
 
the
 
statements
 
made,
 
in
 
light
 
of
 
the
 
circumstances
 
under
 
which
 
such
 
statements
 
were
made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
 
3.
 
Based on
 
my
 
knowledge, the
 
financial statements,
 
and other
 
financial information
 
included in
 
this report,
 
fairly
present in all material respects
 
the financial condition, results of operations and
 
cash flows of the registrant
 
as of, and for,
the periods presented in this report;
 
4.
 
The registrant’s
 
other certifying officer
 
and I are
 
responsible for establishing
 
and ma
intaining disclosure controls
and procedures (as
 
defined in Exchange
 
Act Rules 13a-15(e)
 
and 15d-15(e)) and
 
internal control over
 
financial reporting
(as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the
 
registrant and have:
a)
 
designed such d
isclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be
designed
 
under
 
our
 
supervision,
 
to
 
ensure
 
that
 
material
 
information
 
relating
 
to
 
the
 
registrant,
 
including
 
its
consolidated subsidiaries,
 
is
 
made
 
known to
 
us by
 
others
 
within those
 
entities, particularly
 
during the
 
period in
which this report is being prepared;
 
b)
 
designed
 
such
 
internal
 
control
 
over
 
financial
 
reporting,
 
or
 
caused
 
such
 
internal
 
control
 
over
 
financial
reporting
 
to
 
be
 
designed
 
under
 
our
 
supervision,
 
to
 
provide
 
reasonable
 
assurance
 
regarding
 
the
 
reliability
 
of
financial reporting and the
 
preparation of financial
 
statements for external purposes
 
in accordance with
 
generally
accepted accounting principles;
c)
 
evaluated
 
the
 
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
registrant’s
 
d
isclosure
 
controls
 
and
 
procedures
 
and
 
presented
 
in
 
this
report
 
our
 
conclusions
 
about
 
the
 
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
disclosure
 
controls
 
and
 
procedures,
 
as
 
of
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
the
period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and
 
d)
 
disclosed
 
in
 
this
 
report
any
 
change
 
in
 
the
 
registrant’s
 
internal
 
control
 
over
 
financial
 
reporting
 
that
occurred during
 
the registrant’s
 
most recent
 
fiscal quarter
 
(the registrant’s
 
fourth fiscal
 
quarter in
 
the case
 
of an
annual
 
report)
 
that
 
has
 
materially
 
affected,
 
or
 
is
 
reasonably
 
likely
 
to
 
materially
 
affect,
 
the
 
registrant’s
 
internal
control over financial reporting; and
5.
 
The
 
registrant’s
 
other
 
certifying
 
officer
 
and
 
I
 
have
 
disclosed,
 
based
 
on
 
our
 
most
 
recent
 
evaluation
 
of
 
internal
control over
 
financial reporting,
 
to the
 
registrant’s
 
auditors and
 
the audit
 
committee of
 
the registrant’s
 
board of
 
directors
(or persons performing the equivalent functions):
 
a)
 
all
 
significant
 
deficiencies
 
and
 
material
 
weaknesses
 
in
 
the
 
design
 
or
 
operation
 
of
 
internal
 
control
 
over
financial
 
reporting
 
which
 
are
 
reasonably
 
likely
 
to
 
adversely
 
affect
 
the
 
registrant’s
 
ability
 
to
 
record,
 
process,
summarize and report financial information; and
 
b)
 
any fraud, whether
 
or not material,
 
that involves management
 
or other employees
 
who have a
 
significant
role in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
