Exhibit 1.01

CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT OF STRYKER CORPORATION

For the year ended December 31, 2014

We have made statements in this conflict minerals report that may constitute forward-looking statements about our plans to take additional actions or to implement additional policies or procedures with respect to our due diligence efforts to determine the origin of so-called conflict minerals included in our products.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  Our reporting obligations under the conflict minerals rules may change in the future, and our ability to implement certain processes or obtain information from our suppliers may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in this report. In addition, there are factors that could affect the accuracy of statements made in this report, including, without limitation: incomplete or unavailable supplier or smelter data; errors, omissions, or fraud by suppliers or smelters; changing definitions or methodologies for confirming smelters; incomplete, unclear, or modified guidance from third party industry and other sources; continuing guidance regarding the conflict minerals rules and other issues.

This is the Conflict Minerals Report of Stryker Corporation for 2014 in accordance with Rule 13p-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule 13p-1”). The term “3TG” as used in this report includes cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, wolframite, gold, and their derivatives tin, tantalum, and tungsten.

1. Introduction.

1.1 Stryker Overview. Stryker Corporation is a global leader in the medical technology industry whose success is based on a diverse array of high-quality, innovative products that create cost-effective solutions and improve people’s lives. As used herein, and except where the context otherwise requires, “Stryker,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Stryker Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

1.2 Product Overview. Stryker’s products include implants used in joint replacement and trauma surgeries; surgical equipment and surgical navigation systems; endoscopic and communications systems; patient handling and emergency medical equipment; neurosurgical, neurovascular and spinal devices; as well as other medical device products used in a variety of medical specialties. Many of those products - such as electronic devices, surgical instruments, beds, cots, stretchers, and implants - contain 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of such products.

1.3 Conflict Minerals Rule. Effective November 2012, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) adopted Rule 13p-1 pursuant to Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Act”) relating to the use of conflict minerals. Section 1502 added Section 13(p) of the Exchange Act, which obligated the Commission to promulgate rules requiring public companies with 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of products that they manufacture to disclose annually whether those minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (“Covered Countries”). If an issuer’s 3TG originated in a Covered Country, Rule 13p-1 requires the issuer to file a report with the Commission that describes the measures it has taken to exercise due diligence to determine the source and chain of custody of 3TG in its products.

2. Core Team and Scope.

2.1 Core Team. Stryker created a core team consisting of a dedicated program manager and experts in various functions and subject matters such as legal, supplier controls, and global sourcing. The core team is responsible for designing and executing the conflict minerals strategy. They meet regularly to coordinate and track supplier communications and review and compile related data. An executive committee (consisting of senior management) oversees the core team to ensure that the due diligence efforts align with Stryker’s Conflict Minerals Policy and the Act.

2.2 Scope. Based on the nature of Stryker’s products, the core team determined that during the 2014 reporting year Stryker manufactured and/or contracted to manufacture products containing 3TG that were necessary for the functionality or production of the products. Because Stryker offers a diverse array of finished products, the core team determined that the best method for isolating 3TG in the supply chain was to review materials

incorporated into Stryker’s products on a supplier-by-supplier basis. The core team analyzed Stryker’s supply chain and determined that 711 suppliers provided Stryker with materials or products that potentially contained 3TG (“In Scope Suppliers”) during the 2014 reporting year.

3. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry.

3.1 RCOI Process. To determine whether 3TG contained in Stryker’s products originated in the Covered Countries, the core team conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”). Using the Electronic Industry Citizen Coalition / Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (“EICC/CFSI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template, the core team requested the In-Scope Suppliers to identify the smelters and refiners that contribute refined minerals that could qualify as 3TG and followed up with those that provided either ambiguous or inconclusive responses. The core team then compiled data for analysis and review. Throughout the reporting year, the core team reported its findings to employees in Stryker’s strategic sourcing function and the executive committee.

3.2 Results of RCOI. Stryker received responses from 688 out of 711 In Scope Suppliers, representing a response rate of 96.7%. Based on these survey responses, 12 suppliers did not supply materials or products to Stryker containing 3TG.

3.3 Conclusion. Based on Stryker’s RCOI, we have reason to believe that the 3TG in Stryker’s products may have originated in Covered Countries and may not have come from recycled or scrap sources. Therefore, in accordance with Rule 13p-1, Stryker conducted due diligence to determine whether the 3TG in Stryker’s products directly or indirectly financed or benefited armed groups in the Covered Countries.

4. Due Diligence.

4.1 Due Diligence Framework. Stryker has designed its due diligence process to comply with the internationally recognized due diligence framework set forth in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (“OECD Framework”) and related Supplements for each of the 3TG.

4.2 Strong Company Management Systems.

4.2.1 Conflict Minerals Policy. Stryker has instituted a supply chain policy for Conflict Minerals originating from the Covered Countries (“Conflict Minerals Policy”). The policy reinforces Stryker’s commitment to responsible supply chain management and preventing human rights abuses by avoiding the use of Conflict Minerals that could finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries. The policy is publicly available on Stryker’s website at www.stryker.com.

4.2.2 Management Structure. As discussed in Section 2.2 above, Stryker has established an executive committee of senior leaders responsible for assuring alignment with the Conflict Minerals Policy. The executive committee appointed a core team consisting of knowledgeable and experienced personnel to oversee the supply chain due diligence process. The core team directs Stryker’s due diligence process and takes steps to ensure that important information, including the Conflict Minerals Policy, is communicated to relevant employees and suppliers.

4.2.3 Training. The core team conducted training of Stryker’s sourcing community with responsibility for In Scope Suppliers to underscore the importance of sourcing through suppliers that are committed to following Stryker’s Conflict Minerals Policy and to assist with Stryker’s compliance with Rule 13p-1.

4.3 Identification and Assessment of Risks.

4.3.1 Downstream Company. As a finished medical device manufacturer, Stryker is far removed from the mining of 3TG and does not directly purchase raw ore or unrefined minerals or directly purchase minerals in the Covered Countries. As a result, Stryker relies on information provided by its In Scope Suppliers to determine the origin of 3TG contained in its products and is a “downstream company” as contemplated by the OECD framework.

4.3.2 Identification of High Risk Suppliers. During the RCOI, Stryker sent surveys to all 711 In Scope Suppliers using the EICC/CFSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template. The surveys asked to identify

the country of origin for 3TG. Using the information provided by suppliers in response to those surveys, Stryker assessed the risk that 3TG contained in materials supplied to it was sourced from Covered Countries and identified smelters and refiners used by these suppliers. A list of known smelters identified by Stryker’s suppliers is attached. Stryker followed up with suppliers for further information when initial responses were incomplete or unclear.

4.4 Risk Response.

4.4.1 Internal Communication. The core team has established a broad communication that is published to employees in its strategic sourcing function that tracks overall performance and responsiveness of suppliers during the RCOI. In addition, the results of Stryker’s RCOI and potential concerns regarding the existence of 3TG from covered countries are communicated to leaders in the global sourcing community.

4.4.2 Supplier Communication. As a manufacturer and seller of medical devices, Stryker is subject to strict regulatory requirements in various jurisdictions around the world. Due to these regulatory requirements and the nature of Stryker’s products, Stryker is unable to switch suppliers without significant quality and safety related due diligence and, in some instances, a lengthy regulatory approval process. Accordingly, Stryker emphasizes supplier education to bring existing suppliers into conformance with its Conflict Minerals Policy. In the future, Stryker intends to include as part of its regular evaluation of strategic suppliers consideration of their responsiveness to the RCOI process, commitment to transparency, and alignment with the Conflict Minerals Policy.

4.4.3 Supply Contracts. Stryker has included in new supplier agreements provisions that obligate suppliers to comply with the Conflict Minerals Policy and to permit an audit that confirms compliance with the policy. Because many of our supplier agreements currently in effect have multi-year terms, it may take several years before we have the opportunity to include similar provisions in all agreements.

4.4.4 Ethics Hotline. Stryker maintains a compliance hotline as a mechanism for interested parties to voice concerns regarding compliance with its policies.

4.5 Audited Smelters. Stryker is not subject to the audit requirement for 2014 and continues to support the development and implementation of third party audits of smelters and refiners though its participation in the EICC - Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative.

4.6 Public Report. Stryker complies with its annual reporting requirements under Rule 13p-1 with this conflict minerals report, which is also publicly available on its website at www.stryker.com.

5. Conclusions. Stryker’s due diligence efforts have yielded sourcing information on smelters that contribute to the processing of 3TG through In Scope Suppliers. However, the information obtained to date has been inconclusive. After performing the due diligence measures described above, Stryker was unable to determine whether the 3TG in Stryker’s products directly or indirectly financed or benefited armed groups in the Covered Countries for the year ended December 31, 2014. Stryker also was unable to determine all of the facilities used to process its 3TG or their countries of origin. Stryker’s efforts to determine the mines or locations of origin with the greatest possible specificity included the use of the due diligence measures described above.

6. Future Risk Mitigation Efforts. Stryker continues to develop its due diligence processes described above to obtain accurate and complete information regarding 3TG sourcing and to mitigate the risk that 3TG contained it its supply chain finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries. In addition, Stryker will continue to work with suppliers to stress the importance of compliance with its Conflict Minerals Policy.
