We are delighted that you will be taking on a new and challenging assignment as EVP and President, the Americas located in the United States (Wayne, Pennsylvania). The purpose of this letter is to confirm our mutual understanding of the terms and conditions of your new position and Long Term International Assignment.

It is anticipated that your long-term international assignment in the United States will begin in April 2014, commencing with your relocation and the anticipated move of your family following in summer 2014. The length of the assignment will be two years, although business conditions may require Teleflex Incorporated to reduce or extend this period. The maximum assignment duration is three years, after which you will be repatriated or localized. For the duration of the assignment, you will be directly employed by Teleflex Incorporated. You will also remain an employee of Teleflex Medical Europe Limited during this term in order to permit the continuation of certain Irish benefits, though your terms and conditions will be revised as appropriate for the duration of the assignment to accommodate it. During your assignment in the United States, you will perform work for Teleflex Incorporated, and not for Teleflex Medical Europe Limited. Any general reference to Teleflex or the Company shall mean the Teleflex Group.

At the commencement of your new role, your base salary will be US$ 473,678. Your AIP target will be increased to 70%. You will also receive a company-leased vehicle in the US, consistent with the provision for other similarly situated Teleflex Incorporated Executive Officers, in lieu of the car allowance set forth in Section 9.5 of your Executive Employment Agreement.

Eligibility for international assignment allowances and benefits begins upon the later of a) your occupying permanent housing in the United States (estimated April 2014) and b) the date you receive a work permit from the United States, and will terminate upon the earlier of the termination of your assignment or your vacating permanent housing in the United States.

Your eligibility will continue for participation in your Irish benefit plans and will be determined in accordance with the provisions of such plans. Assignment related allowances and premiums will not be included in the calculation of coverage and retirement benefits.

By signing this this letter, you are making a one-time irrevocable election to waive participation in the Teleflex 401(k) Savings Plan (“401(k) Plan”) and you acknowledge and agree that you are not entitled to participate in the 401(k) Plan.

For the duration of your assignment period, you will be eligible to participate in the United States Health (i.e., medical, prescription drug and vision), Dental, and EAP Programs under the Teleflex Incorporated Health and Welfare Plan (“Welfare Plan”). The monthly premium paid by you to participate in the Health and Dental Programs under the Welfare Plan will be reimbursable to you by the Medical Group. By signing this letter, you acknowledge and agree that you are not eligible to participate in any of the other benefit programs under the Welfare Plan.

The tax services provided to you will include pre-assignment Irish/United States tax orientation with a Tax Advisor representative.

Your income taxes with respect to Teleflex-related employment earnings while abroad will be equalized during your assignment. Specifically, your Irish hypothetical tax and tax equalization settlement will be calculated on your base salary, bonus, and other elements of your compensation and benefits that are unrelated to your international assignment (collectively, your “non-expatriate compensation”) for all assignment years and then one additional calendar year. Such hypothetical tax amount will be withheld from your non-expatriate compensation payments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices and will be used by the Company to fund any U.S. taxes due and owing in respect of the non-expatriate compensation. Any differential between the amount of hypothetical tax paid by you and the amount of U.S. taxes due and payable in respect of your non-expatriate compensation will be retained by Teleflex.

In addition, the Company shall pay, on your behalf, any and all U.S. income taxes (a) on your housing allowance, children’s education assistance, and other compensation and benefits that you receive solely as a result of the fact that you are on a temporary international assignment; and (b) arising as a result of the Company’s payment of taxes on your behalf.

The tax equalization methodology will be explained to you in depth during your pre-assignment tax briefing. The discussion will include a review of your hypothetical tax withholding obligation.

The following items of income may be included for purposes of computing your hypothetical tax:

In addition to the items listed above, personal income and losses are included in computing hypothetical income, with the exception of the following:

There are three possibilities for termination of your employment and the assignment with Teleflex Incorporated during the Assignment period:

Under (1) and (3), you are responsible for any end of assignment and repatriation costs. You will receive your base salary and applicable allowances through the termination date.

Under (2), repatriation costs will be paid by Teleflex Incorporated in accordance with this letter, provided repatriation occurs within 60 days of the termination date and provided the expenses are not reimbursed from another source. Repatriation costs include reasonable shipping and storage costs, family travel expenses and a Relocation Allowance according to this letter. Your base salary and applicable allowances will be paid through the termination date.

In the event of repatriation to the Ireland as a result of involuntary termination without cause, Teleflex Incorporated will provide the following allowances/ reimbursements/provisions subject to the terms detailed above, the details of which will be explained during your pre-assignment orientation:

Support for the shipment of household goods, including packing, insurance, and customs where shipment of household goods to the Host Location was provided at the start of the assignment. Teleflex Incorporated will provide the same level of support for the repatriation move under the same caps and restrictions as described for the expatriation move.

Support for the removal of stored goods where household goods were stored in the Home Location at the start of the assignment. Teleflex Incorporated will pay for the cost of packing and shipping the stored goods to your Home Country residence. Removal of stored goods does not include fees for automobiles and expensive/extremely fragile items (i.e., wine collections).

¨	Temporary Living – In the event you are unable to immediately occupy your Home Country residence, temporary living assistance is provided for up to 30 days in the Ireland; including meals, lodging and dry cleaning for you and your accompanying family members.

Relocation Allowance – The purpose of this is to cover the cost of any incidental expenses associated with the relocation that are not otherwise reimbursed or paid under the Global Assignment Program.

Teleflex Incorporated will not guarantee the term of any foreign assignment and may give notice at any time to terminate the assignment.

It is understood and agreed to that any provisions and allowances (housing, cost of living, etc.) paid to you during this assignment will not be part of your compensation upon return to the Ireland.

The provisions and allowances described in the letter are earned solely for service performed in the United States and not for any work performed in the Ireland during the period of this assignment.

Should you be transferred to another country, a new Assignment Letter will be prepared and that assignment will be considered a new assignment. Should you be transferred within the same assignment country, or if your assignment is extended beyond the initial estimated assignment duration, a new Assignment Letter will not be prepared and the terms and conditions of your current Assignment Letter will continue.

Should you resign from employment with Teleflex or be involuntarily terminated for cause while on assignment, the Company reserves the right to cease all assignment payments, including applicable relocation costs, from the date of your resignation or the date of your termination, whatever is applicable.

Subject to the Company’s rights listed above, Teleflex Incorporated will provide for relocation to Ireland upon termination of the foreign assignment. These relocation benefits are available only for 60 days from the end of your foreign assignment.

Upon completion or termination of your foreign assignment other than voluntarily or for cause, you will return to your previous role with Teleflex Medical Europe or where not reasonably practicable, a reasonably suitable alternative role where one exists. The Company cannot provide a guarantee of any specific assignment upon return to the Ireland. The Company will use all reasonable effort to assign you to a position in keeping with both your experience and your performance. However, in the event that no suitable alternative positions exist at the time of termination of your assignment, your employment may be terminated, in which case all benefits intended to apply on termination of your employment will be payable in accordance with the terms of your Senior Executive Officer Severance Agreement.

In addition, your Executive Employment Agreement dated July 30, 2012 will remain in force during the period of assignment save as described above.

**Any amounts due the Company as a result of an overpayment made to you or on your behalf, or an underpayment by you of your portion of a tax liability or assessment, may be offset and applied against amounts due you for other benefits. Should you owe monies to the Company, the Company has the right to collect amounts due by offsetting other payments or credits related to the assignment which may be due you. Failure to settle debts to the Company is identified as a violation of the code of conduct, with potential termination of employment.

NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS GIVING YOU ANY RIGHT TO BE RETAINED IN THE EMPLOY OF TELEFLEX INCORPORATED OR TELEFLEX MEDICAL EUROPE LIMITED. YOUR EMPLOYMENT MAY BE TERMIANTED AT ANY TIME AS PROVIDED IN YOUR EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT DATED JULY 30, 2012.
