This Amendment (this “Amendment”) to the Teleflex Incorporated 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is made effective as of January 1, 2012, pursuant to resolutions of the Board of Directors of Teleflex Incorporated, a Delaware corporation, adopted during a meeting held on December 15, 2011.

(ii) Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement:

(A) Upon termination from membership on the Board by a Director, any Option held by such Director that (1) has not vested and is not exercisable as of the effective date of such termination from membership on the Board shall be subject to immediate cancellation and forfeiture or (2) is vested and exercisable as of the effective date of such termination shall remain exercisable for five (5) years thereafter, or the remaining term of the Option, if less;

(C) Upon Termination of Employment due to Death, any Option held by such Employee that is vested and exercisable as of the effective date of such Termination of Employment shall remain exercisable for six (6) months thereafter;

(D) Upon Termination of Employment due to Retirement, (1) any Option held by such Employee shall, to the extent not already vested, become ratably vested (rounded up or down to the nearest whole Share) based upon the full months of the applicable vesting period elapsed as of the end of the month in which the Termination of Employment due to Retirement occurs over the total number of months in such period; provided, however, that, in the case of a Retirement due to a voluntary Termination of Employment, the terms of this Section 8(h)(ii)(D)(1) shall not apply with respect to any Option granted less than six (6) months prior to the effective date of such Termination of Employment; and (2) any Option held by an Awardee at Retirement, to the extent vested and exercisable as of the effective date of such Retirement (including, without limitation, any Options that have ratably vested pursuant to the preceding clause (1)), will remain outstanding for the lesser of five (5) years or the remaining term of the Option; and

(E) Any other Termination of Employment shall result in immediate cancellation and forfeiture of all outstanding Options that have not vested as of the effective date of such Termination of Employment, and any vested and exercisable Options held at the time of such Termination of Employment shall remain exercisable for ninety (90) days thereafter, or the remaining term of the Option, if less.

4. The second sentence of Subsection 11(a) of the Plan, Stock Award Agreement, is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:
