(a)
Common stock held in trusts represents rabbi trusts in connection with deferred compensation under the Company’s employee salary and bonus deferral plan and directors’ deferral plan.
(b)
In May 2017 and in connection with the Company's acquisition of Bard, which is further discussed in Note 9, the Company completed registered public offerings of equity securities including 14.025 million shares of the Company's common stock and 2.475 million shares of the Company's mandatory convertible preferred stock (ownership is held in the form of depositary shares, each representing a 1/20th interest in a share of preferred stock) for total net proceeds of $4.8 billion. If and when declared, dividends on the mandatory convertible preferred stock are payable on a cumulative basis at an annual rate of 6.125% on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per preferred share ($50 per depositary share).  The shares of preferred stock are convertible to a minimum of 11.7 million and up to a maximum of 14.0 million shares of Company common stock at an exchange ratio that is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of conversion, and no later than the mandatory conversion date of May 1, 2020.
(c)
Using proceeds received from the divestiture of the Respiratory Solutions business in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company repurchased shares of its common stock under an accelerated share repurchase agreement.
