U.S. $2,200,000,000 Amended and Restated Five-Year Credit Agreement

On June 11, 2025, Baxter International Inc. ("Baxter") entered into an amended and restated five-year credit agreement (the "RCF Amendment"), which amends and restates in its entirety the existing $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement, dated as of September 30, 2021 (the "Existing Revolving Credit Agreement" and, as amended by the RCF Amendment, the "Revolving Credit Agreement"), among Baxter, as Borrower Representative, Baxter Healthcare SA and Baxter World Trade SRL (together, the "Euro Borrowers"), as Borrowers, various lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The purpose of the RCF Amendment was to (i) extend the maturity date thereof, (ii) add the Euro Borrowers as borrowers thereto and (iii) make certain other amendments to the terms thereof. The Revolving Credit Agreement also replaces the existing €200 million revolving credit facility (the "Existing Euro Revolving Credit Agreement"), dated as of December 20, 2019, which was terminated on June 11, 2025 contemporaneously with the entry into the Revolving Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Euro Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Baxter.

Baxter may, at its option, seek to increase the aggregate commitment under the Revolving Credit Agreement by up to $1.1 billion, which would result in a maximum aggregate commitment of up to $3.3 billion.

The Revolving Credit Agreement enables Baxter and the Euro Borrowers to borrow funds in U.S. Dollars, Euros or other currencies if qualifying as Agreed Currencies thereunder on an unsecured basis at variable interest rates. Borrowings in Euros are subject to a sublimit of $300 million.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains financial and other covenants, including a net leverage ratio covenant, as well as events of default with respect to Baxter and the Euro Borrowers and, in some circumstances, Baxter's Material Subsidiaries that are customary for facilities of this type. The Revolving Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit.

The obligations of the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement to provide advances will terminate on the earlier of (i) June 11, 2030 and (ii) the date on which the Commitments shall have been reduced to zero or terminated in whole pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement.
