ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
(a) General Development of Business.
Baxter International Inc. was incorporated under Delaware law in 1931. As
used in this report, except as otherwise indicated in information incorporated
by reference, "Baxter" means Baxter International Inc. and the "Company" means
Baxter and its subsidiaries.
The Company is engaged in the worldwide development, distribution and
manufacture of a diversified line of products, systems and services used
primarily in the health-care field. Products are manufactured by the Company in
25 countries and sold in approximately 100 countries. Health-care is concerned
with the preservation of health and with the diagnosis, cure, mitigation and
treatment of disease and body defects and deficiencies. The Company's products
are used by hospitals, clinical and medical research laboratories, blood and
dialysis centers, rehabilitation centers, nursing homes, doctors' offices and
at home under physician supervision. See "Recent Developments."
For information regarding acquisitions, investments in affiliates and
divestitures, see the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year
ended December 31, 1996 (the "Annual Report"), page 32, section entitled "Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements--Acquisitions and Investments in
Affiliates" which is incorporated by reference.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.
Incorporated by reference from the Annual Report, pages 44-45, section
entitled "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Industry and Geographical
Information."
(c) Narrative Description of Business.
Recent Developments
Spin-off of Allegiance Corporation
On September 30, 1996, Baxter stockholders of record on September 26, 1996,
received all of the outstanding stock of Allegiance Corporation ("Allegiance"),
its health-care cost management and distribution business, in a tax-free spin-
off. Additional information is incorporated by reference from the Annual
Report, page 32, section entitled "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--
Discontinued Operations."
Acquisition of Immuno International AG
In December 1996, Baxter commenced the acquisition of Immuno International AG
("Immuno"), a European manufacturer of biopharmaceutical products and services
for transfusion medicine. The Company will acquire Immuno in a three-part
transaction. The purchase price is valued at approximately $600 million. A
substantial portion of the Immuno purchase price will be allocated to Immuno's
in-process research and development which, under generally accepted accounting
principles, will be immediately expensed by the Company during the first
quarter of 1997 (the "Immuno Charge"). Excluding this charge, the transaction
is expected to be nondilutive to earnings in 1997 and accretive in 1998, as
both revenue and cost synergies are realized. The acquisition will be financed
with debt, temporarily raising the Company's net-debt-to-net-capital ratio into
the mid-40% range by year-end 1997. This ratio is expected to return to the
targeted 35% to 40% range over time as a result of ongoing operations.
Acquisition of Research Medical, Inc.
In December 1996, the Company and Research Medical, Inc. ("RMI"), a provider
of specialized products used in open-heart surgery, entered into a definitive
agreement for the Company to acquire RMI for
1
<PAGE>
approximately $236 million of Company common stock. The acquisition was
completed on March 14, 1997. A substantial portion of the RMI purchase price
will be allocated to RMI's in-process research and development and immediately
expensed by the Company during the first quarter of 1997. This non-cash
charge, together with the Immuno Charge, will be approximately $360 million
(or $1.32 per share). The RMI charge represents approximately 35% of the
total, while the Immuno Charge comprises the remainder.
Company Overview
The Company operates in a single industry segment as a global medical-
products and services company that is a leader in technologies related to the
blood and circulatory system. It has market-leading positions in four
businesses: biotechnology, which develops therapies and products in
transfusion medicine; cardiovascular medicine, which develops products and
expands services to treat late-stage cardiovascular disease; renal therapy,
which develops products and services to improve therapies to fight kidney
disease; and intravenous systems/medical products, which develops technologies
and systems to improve intravenous medication delivery, and distributes
disposable medical products.
Information about operating results is incorporated by reference from the
Annual Report, pages 17-24, section entitled "Management's Discussion and
Analysis" and pages 44-45, section entitled "Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements--Industry and Geographical Information."
United States Markets
The United States health-care marketplace continues to be competitive. There
has been consolidation in the Company's customer base and by its competitors
which has resulted in pricing and market share pressures. These industry
trends are expected to continue. The Company intends to manage these trends by
capitalizing on its market-leading positions and by leveraging its cost
structure.
International Markets
The Company generates more than 50% of its revenues outside the United
States and international sales are expected to grow at approximately twice the
rate of domestic sales for the foreseeable future. Worldwide demand for
health-care products and services continues to be strong, particularly in
developing markets such as Asia and Latin America. In the developed world--
especially in Western Europe and Japan--there continues to be strong demand
for more technologically advanced and cost-effective therapies, products and
services. The Company's strategy emphasizes international expansion and
technological innovation to capitalize on its strong global positions and the
needs of rapidly growing markets.
Joint Ventures
The Company conducts an immaterial portion of its business through joint
ventures. These joint venture are accounted for under the equity method of
accounting.
Methods of Distribution
The Company conducts its selling efforts through its subsidiaries and
divisions. Many subsidiaries and divisions have their own sales forces and
direct their own sales efforts. In addition, sales are made to independent
distributors, dealers and sales agents. The Company's distribution centers are
stocked with adequate inventories to facilitate prompt customer service. Sales
and distribution methods include frequent contact by sales representatives,
automated communications via various electronic purchasing systems,
circulation of catalogs and merchandising bulletins, direct mail campaigns,
trade publications and advertising.
International sales and distribution are made in approximately 100 countries
either on a direct basis or through independent local distributors.
International subsidiaries employ their own field sales forces in Argentina,
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Brunei, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia,
Ecuador, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia,
Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway,
Pakistan, Peru, the Philippines, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland,
Taiwan, Thailand, the United Kingdom and Venezuela. In other countries, sales
are made through independent distributors or sales agents.
Raw Materials
Raw materials essential to the Company's business are purchased worldwide in
the ordinary course of business from numerous suppliers. The vast majority of
these materials are generally available, and no serious
2
<PAGE>
shortages or delays have been encountered. Certain raw materials used in
producing some of the Company's products are available only from a small number
of suppliers. In addition, certain biomaterials for medical implant
applications (primarily polymers) are becoming more difficult to obtain due to
market withdrawals by biomaterial suppliers, primarily as a result of perceived
exposures to liability in the United States.
In some of these situations, the Company has long-term supply contracts with
its suppliers, although it does not consider its obligations under such
contracts to be material. The Company does not always recover cost increases
through customer pricing due to contractual limits and market pressure on such
price increases. See "Contractual Arrangements."
Patents and Trademarks
The Company owns a number of patents and trademarks throughout the world and
is licensed under patents owned by others. While it seeks patents on new
developments whenever feasible, the Company does not consider any one or more
of its patents, or the licenses granted to or by it, to be essential to its
business.
Products manufactured by the Company are sold primarily under its own
trademarks and trade names. Some products purchased and resold by the Company
are sold under the Company's trade names while others are sold under trade
names owned by its suppliers.
Competition
Historically, competition in the health-care industry has been characterized
by the search for technological and therapeutic innovations in the prevention,
diagnosis and treatment of disease. The Company believes that it has benefited
from the technological advantages of certain of its products. While others will
continue to introduce new products which compete with those sold by the
Company, the Company believes that its research and development effort will
permit it to remain competitive in all presently material product areas.
Although no single company competes with the Company in all of its businesses,
the Company is faced with substantial competition in all of its markets.
The changing health-care environment in recent years has led to increasingly
intense competition among United States health-care suppliers. Competition is
focused on price, service and product performance. Pressure in these areas is
expected to continue.
In part through its restructuring programs, the Company continues to increase
its efforts to minimize costs and better meet United States price competition.
The Company believes that its cost position will continue to benefit from
improvements in manufacturing technology and increased economies of scale. The
Company continues to emphasize its investments in innovative and cost-effective
technologies and the quality of its product and services.
Credit and Working Capital Practices
As of December 31, 1996, the Company's debt ratings were A3 on senior debt by
Moody's, A by Standard & Poor's and BBB+ by Duff & Phelps.
The Company's credit practices and related working capital needs are
comparable to those of other market participants. Collection periods tend to be
longer for sales outside the United States.
Quality Control
The Company places great emphasis on providing quality products and services
to its customers. An integrated network of quality systems, including control
procedures that are developed and implemented by technically trained
professionals, result in rigid specifications for raw materials, packaging
materials, labels, sterilization procedures and overall manufacturing process
control. The quality systems integrate the efforts of raw material and finished
goods suppliers to provide the highest value to customers. On a statistical
sampling basis, a quality assurance organization tests components and finished
goods at different stages in the manufacturing process to assure that exacting
standards are met. Customers may return defective merchandise for credit or
replacement. In recent years, such returns have been insignificant.

<PAGE>
Research and Development
The Company is actively engaged in research and development programs to
develop and improve products, systems and manufacturing methods. These
activities are performed at 21 research and development centers located around
the world and include facilities in Australia, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Japan,
Malta, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Expenditures for Company-sponsored research and development activities were
$340 in 1996, $345 million in 1995 and $303 million in 1994.
The Company's research efforts emphasize self-manufactured product
development, and portions of that research relate to multiple product lines.
For example, many product categories benefit from the Company's research
effort as applied to the human body's circulatory systems. In addition,
research relating to the performance and purity of plastic materials has
resulted in advances that are applicable to a large number of the Company's
products. Principal areas of strategic focus for research are biotechnology,
renal therapy and transplantation, blood disorders and cardiovascular disease.
Government Regulation
Most products manufactured or sold by the Company in the United States are
subject to regulation by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), as well as
by other federal and state agencies. The FDA regulates the introduction and
advertising of new drugs and devices as well as manufacturing procedures,
labeling and record keeping with respect to drugs and devices. The FDA has the
power to seize adulterated or misbranded drugs and devices or to require the
manufacturer to remove them from the market and the power to publicize
relevant facts. From time to time, the Company has removed products from the
market that were found not to meet acceptable standards. This may occur in the
future. Product regulatory laws exist in most other countries where the
Company does business.
Environmental policies of the Company mandate compliance with all applicable
regulatory requirements concerning environmental quality and contemplate,
among other things, appropriate capital expenditures for environmental
protection. Various non-material capital expenditures for environmental
protection were made by the Company during 1996 and similar expenditures are
planned for 1997. See Item 3.--"Legal Proceedings."
Employees
As of December 31, 1996, the Company employed approximately 37,000 people.
Contractual Arrangements
A substantial portion of the Company's products are sold through contracts
with purchasers, both international and domestic. Some of these contracts are
for terms of more than one year and include limits on price increases. In the
case of hospitals, clinical laboratories and other facilities, these contracts
may specify minimum quantities of a particular product or categories of
products to be purchased by the customer.
Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Statements throughout this report that are not historical facts, including
but not limited to statements in the "Company Overview," "International
Markets" and "Recent Developments" sections of this report (including material
incorporated therein by reference) include forward looking statements. These
statements are based on the Company's current expectations and involve
numerous risks and uncertainties. Some of these risks and uncertainties are
factors that affect all international businesses, while some are specific to
the Company and the health-care arenas in which it operates.
The factors below in some cases have affected and could affect the Company's
actual results, causing results to differ, and possibly differ materially,
from those expressed in any such forward looking statements. These factors
include technological advances in the medical field, economic conditions,
demand and market acceptance risks for new and existing products, technologies
and health-care services, the impact of competitive products and pricing,
manufacturing capacity, new plant start-ups, the United States and global
regulatory and trade environment, continued price competition related to the
Company's United States operations, product development risks, including
technological difficulties, and unforeseen foreign commercialization and
regulatory factors.
4
<PAGE>
Currency fluctuations are also a significant variable for global companies,
especially fluctuations in local currencies where hedging opportunities are
unreasonably expensive, or altogether unavailable. If the United States dollar
continues to strengthen against most foreign currencies, the Company's ability
to realize projected growth rates in its sales outside the United States
(expressed in United States dollars) could be negatively impacted. However, a
continued weakening in such non-United States currencies may correspondingly by
reduce costs (which are initially denominated in local currencies) associated
with Company product manufactured in those countries.
The Company believes that its expectations with respect to forward-looking
statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its
knowledge of its business and operations, but there can be no assurance that
the actual results or performance of the Company will conform to any future
results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export
Sales.
International operations are subject to certain additional risks inherent in
conducting business outside the United States, such as changes in currency
exchange rates, price and currency exchange controls, import restrictions,
nationalization, expropriation and other governmental action.
Financial information is incorporated by reference from the Annual Report,
pages 44-45, section entitled "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--
Industry and Geographical Information."
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
The Company owns or has long-term leases on substantially all of its major
manufacturing facilities. The Company maintains 18 manufacturing facilities in
the United States, including seven in Puerto Rico, and also manufactures in
Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, the Czech Republic, Chile, China, Colombia,
Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, France, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Japan,
Malta, Mexico, the Netherlands, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan,
Turkey and the United Kingdom. The Company owns or operates distribution
facilities throughout the world, including 67 located in 24 foreign countries.
The Company maintains a continuing program for improving its properties,
including the retirement or improvement of older facilities and the
construction of new facilities. This program includes improvement of
manufacturing facilities to enable production and quality control programs to
conform with the current state of technology and government regulations.
Capital expenditures were $318 million in 1996, $309 million in 1995 and $308
million in 1994. In addition, the Company added to the pool of equipment leased
or rented to customers, spending $80 million in 1996, $90 million in 1995 and
$72 million in 1994.

GLOBAL CERTIFICATE, DATED FEBRUARY 3, 1997
----------------------------------------------------
1. Principal and Interest.
Baxter International Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company"), promises to pay
to Cede & Co., or its registered assigns, the principal sum of Two Hundred
Million Dollars ($200,000,000) on February 1, 2007, and to pay interest on the
principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above. The Company
will pay interest semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year,
commencing August 1, 1997. Interest on the Securities (as hereinafter defined)
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from February 1, 1997. Interest will be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
2. Method of Payment.
The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to
the persons who are registered holder of Securities at the close of business on
the January 15 and July 15 next preceding the interest payment date. The Company
will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time
of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, the
Company may pay principal and interest by check payable in such money. It may
mail an interest check to a holder's registered address.
3. Paying Agent, Registrar, Place of Payment.
The Company maintains an office or agency in Chicago, Illinois, where the
Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, registration of transfer
or exchange and where notices and demands with respect to the Securities may be
made. Initially, First Trust National Association will act as Paying Agent and
Registrar and the Place of Payment is Chicago, Illinois. The Company may appoint
Co-Paying Agents or Co-Registrars and change any Paying Agent, Registrar, Place
of Payment or Co-Paying Agent or Co-Registrar without notice. The Company may
act as Paying Agent, Registrar or Co-Registrar.
4. Indenture.
This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes, bonds or
other evidences of indebtedness of the Company (hereinafter called the "Debt
Securities") of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued
under and pursuant to an amended and restated indenture (including those
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code /Sections/
77aaa-77bbbb) made a part thereof) dated as of November 15, 1985, between the
Company and the Trustee to which Indenture, as amended and supplemented from
time to time (herein referred to, as so amended and supplemented, as the
"Indenture"), reference is hereby made for a description of the rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, the Company and the holders of the Debt Securities. The Debt Securities
may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in
various principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if
any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if
any), may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any),
may be subject to different covenants and Events of Default and may otherwise
vary as in the indenture provided. This Security is one of a series designated
as the 7.125% Notes due February 1, 2007
<PAGE>
of the Company (herein called the "Securities"), limited in aggregate principal
amount to $250,000,000 (except for Securities issued in substitution for
destroyed, lost or stolen Securities). The Securities are unsecured general
obligations of the Company.
5. Optional Redemption.
The Securities are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company
at any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the
principal amount of such Securities, or (ii) as determined by an Independent
Investment Banker (as defined), the sum of the present values of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the
redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus, in each case, accrued
interest thereon to the date of redemption.
"Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate
per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as
a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for
such redemption date, plus 0.05%.
"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security selected
by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the
remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the
time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in
pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the
remaining term of such Securities. "Independent Investment Banker" means one of
the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Trustee after consultation with
the Company.
"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the
average of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed
in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) on the third Business Day
preceding such redemption date, as set forth in the daily statistical release
(or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and
designated "Composite 3:30 p.m. Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" or
(ii) if such release (or any successor release) is not published or does not
contain such prices on such Business Day, (A) the Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Trustee obtains fewer than
three such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such
Quotations. "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by
the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Trustee by such Treasury Reference Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the
third Business Day preceding such redemption date. "Business Day" means any day
which is not a "Legal Holiday" as defined in the Indenture.
"Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of Goldman, Sachs & Co., Credit Suisse
First Boston Corporation, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., BancAmerica Securities,
Inc. and First Chicago Capital Markets, Inc. and their respective successors;
provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S.
Government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer"), the
Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60
days before the redemption date to each holder of the Securities to be redeemed.
Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the
redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or portions
thereof called for redemption.

<PAGE>
6. Denominations, Transfers, Exchange.
The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000
and multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Securities may be registered and
Securities may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar may
require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents and to pay any taxes and charges required by law or permitted
by the Indenture.
7. Persons Deemed Owners.
The registered holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all
purposes.
8. Amendments and Waivers.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended with the consent of
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities together with
the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of each other
series of Debt Securities which are affected by the amendment. Subject to
certain exceptions, the Securities may be amended with the consent of the
holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and any default or
compliance by the Company with any provision of the Indenture with respect to
the Securities may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities. Without the consent of any Securityholder,
the Indenture or the Securities may be amended to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency, to provide for assumption of Company obligations to
Securityholders, to provide for a successor Trustee, to provide for certain
other forms of securities, or to make any change that does not adversely affect
the rights of any Securityholder. The Company is authorized to fix a record date
for the purpose of determining Securityholders whose consents may be sought, and
the Trustee is authorized to accept such consents if received within 60 days of
such record date.
9. Defaults and Remedies.
An Event of Default is: default for 30 days in payment of interest on the
Securities; default for five days in payment of principal on them; failure by
the Company for 60 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other
agreements in the Indenture or the Securities; certain defaults on certain other
indebtedness of the Company; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. If
an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities
to be due and payable immediately. Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture
or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require
indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities.
Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The
Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing default
(except a default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interests. The Company must furnish an annual
compliance certificate to the Trustee. Overdue interest (to the extent permitted

basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
2. Method of Payment.
The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to
the persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close of business on
the January 15 and July 15 next preceding the interest payment date. The Company
will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time

4. Indenture.
This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes, bonds or
other evidences of indebtedness of the Company (hereinafter called the "Debt
Securities") of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued
under and pursuant to an amended and restated indenture (including those
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code (S)(S) 77aaa-77bbbb)
made a part thereof) dated as of November 15, 1985, between the Company and the
Trustee to which Indenture, as amended and supplemented from time to time
(herein referred to, as so amended and supplemented, as the "Indenture"),
reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights,
obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and
the holders of the Debt Securities. The Debt Securities may be issued in one or
more series, which different series may be issued in various principal amounts,
may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates,
may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to
different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any), may be subject to
different covenants and Events of Default and may otherwise vary as in the
indenture provided. This Security is one of a series designated as the 7.65%
Debentures due February 1, 2027 of the Company (herein called the "Securities"),
limited in aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000 (except for Securities

5. Optional Redemption.
The Securities are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company
at any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the
principal amount of such Securities, or (ii) as determined by an Independent
Investment Banker (as defined), the sum of the present values of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the
redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus, in each case, accrued
interest thereon to the date of redemption.
"Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate
per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as
a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for
such redemption date, plus 0.05%.
"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security selected
by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the
remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the
time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in
pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the
remaining term of such Securities. "Independent Investment Banker" means one of
the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Trustee after consultation with
the Company.
"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the
average of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed
in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) on the third Business Day
preceding such redemption date, as set forth in the daily statistical release
(or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and
designated "Composite 3:30 p.m. Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" or
(ii) if such release (or any successor release) is not published or does not
contain such prices on such Business Day, (A) the Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Trustee obtains fewer than
three such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such
Quotations. "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by
the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Trustee by such Treasury Reference Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the
third Business Day preceding such redemption date. "Business Day" means any day
which is not a "Legal Holiday" as defined in the Indenture.
"Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of Goldman, Sachs & Co., Credit Suisse
First Boston Corporation, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., BancAmerica Securities,
Inc. and First Chicago Capital Markets, Inc. and their respective successors;
provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S.
Government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer"), the
Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60
days before the redemption date to each holder of the Securities to be redeemed.
Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the
redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or portions
thereof called for redemption.
6. Denominations, Transfers, Exchange.
The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000

law or permitted by the Indenture.
7. Persons Deemed Owners.
The registered holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all
purposes.
8. Amendments and Waivers.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended with the consent of
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities together with
the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of each other
series of Debt Securities which are affected by the amendment. Subject to
certain exceptions, the Securities may be amended with the consent of the
holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and any default or
compliance by the Company with any provision of the Indenture with respect to
the Securities may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities. Without the consent of any Securityholder,
the Indenture or the Securities may be amended to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency, to provide for assumption of Company obligations to
Securityholders, to provide for a successor Trustee, to provide for certain
other forms of securities, or to make any change that does not adversely affect
the rights of any Securityholder. The Company is authorized to fix a record date
for the purpose of determining Securityholders whose consents may be sought, and
the Trustee is authorized to accept such consents if received within 60 days of
such record date.
9. Defaults and Remedies.
An Event of Default is: default for 30 days in payment of interest on the
Securities; default for five days in payment of principal on them; failure by
the Company for 60 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other
agreements in the Indenture or the Securities; certain defaults on certain other
indebtedness of the Company; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. If
an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities
to be due and payable immediately. Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture
or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require
indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities.
Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The
Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing default
(except a default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interests. The Company must furnish an annual
compliance certificate to the Trustee. Overdue interest (to the extend permitted
by law) and overdue principal shall bear interest at the rates stated on the
face of the Security.
10. Trustee Dealings with Company.
First Trust National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture for the
Securities, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept
deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may
otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee.
11. No Recourse Against Others.
A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not
have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or
the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such
obligations or their creation. Each Securityholder by accepting a Security
waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for the issue of the Securities.

Exhibit 10.32
Baxter
November 16, 1995
Jack L. McGinley
855 East Rosemary Road
Lake Forest, Illinois 60045
Dear Jack:
This letter is to confirm our agreement concerning your early retirement from
Baxter Healthcare Corporation and its affiliates ("Company"), as follows:
1) You will continue your employment with the Company until either you or the
Company decides to terminate your employment. If the Company terminates
your employment, you will receive thirty (30) days advance notice. The
effective date of your employment termination is your Early Retirement
Date. Until your Early Retirement Date, you will continue working on
matters assigned by me or my designee from time to time. If you resign
prior to December 31, 1997, you will forfeit all of your rights created by
this agreement.
2) Between now and your Early Retirement Date, the Company will continue to
pay you at regular payroll intervals a base salary at least equal to your
current base salary. Until your Early Retirement Date, you are eligible to
receive a bonus under the Company's Officer Incentive Compensation Plan(s)
(cash bonus plan), if the Company continues to make the plan available to
other officers, in the ordinary course. In addition, if the cash bonus plan
is in effect in the year of your early retirement, you will be eligible to
receive a pro-rated bonus, the pro-ration being based on the number of
months between January 1 of that year and your Early Retirement Date. The
determination of the amount and payment of the bonus(es) will be made in
accordance with the provision of the plan(s). You are not eligible to
participate in any Company bonus plans effective after your Early
Retirement Date.
3) Following your Early Retirement Date, the Company will pay you, in a lump
sum, the cash value of your accrued, but unused vacation time. You will not
accrue vacation time after your Early Retirement Date.
4) Your active participation in the Baxter International Inc. and Subsidiaries
Pension Plan ("Pension Plan") will continue until your
1
<PAGE>
Early Retirement Date. Your vested accrued benefits in the Pension Plan
will be distributed to you in accordance with its provisions. In addition,
the Company will provide you with a non-qualified and unfunded supplemental
pension benefit ("Pension Supplement"). The Pension Supplement will be
calculated as follows:
a) Initially, your accrued benefit will be determined, as of your Early
Retirement Date, under the provisions of the Pension Plan as if: 1)
all of your service with the Company was performed in the United
States (specifically including your service with the Company in Canada
and Japan) and 2) on your Early Retirement Date you were five years
older and had five additional years of benefit service under the
Pension Plan ("Adjusted and Enhanced U.S. Benefit").
b) The Company will then determine, as of your Early Retirement Date,
your actual accrued benefit under the provisions of the Pension Plan
and your actual accrued benefit under the provisions of the Company's
Canadian Pension Plan ("Combined U.S. and Canada Benefit")
c) Your Pension Supplement equals the amount, if any, by which the
Adjusted and Enhanced U.S. Benefit exceeds the Combined U.S. and
Canada Benefit.
Your Pension Supplement will be paid to you at the same time and in the
same manner as your benefit under the Pension Plan.
In the event of your death prior to your Early Retirement Date, the payment
of your accrued benefit under the Pension Plan will be determined as if
your Early Retirement Date were the day before your death and you selected
a pension payment option of 100% Joint and Survivor.
5) Your active participation in the Company's Incentive Investment Plan, if
any, including your contributions, will continue until your Early
Retirement Date, unless you elect to discontinue your contributions
earlier. Your vested accrued benefits, if any, in the Incentive Investment
Plan will be distributed to you in accordance with its provisions.
6) Until your Early Retirement Date, you are eligible to participate in the
Company's Flexible Benefits Program to the same extent eligibility is
2
<PAGE>
extended in the ordinary course to other Company employees. On your Early
Retirement Date, you are eligible to participate in the Company's retiree
medical plan to the same extent eligibility is then extended in the
ordinary course to other Company retirees. You may postpone retiree medical
coverage and elect up to 18 months of medical and dental coverage under
COBRA, if you are eligible. You may not obtain medical coverage through the
retiree medical plan and COBRA simultaneously. If you elect COBRA coverage,
you and the Company will share the cost for the first six months. For the
remaining 12 months, you must pay the full COBRA cost.
7) Until your Early Retirement Date, you are eligible to participate in the
Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan on the same basis as other Company
employees. Your participation, if any, in the plan will cease on your Early
Retirement Date. After your Early Retirement Date, you will receive a cash
refund of the balance, if any, in your subscription account.
8) Your stock options will vest or be forfeited according to their terms based
on your Early Retirement Date.
Your restricted shares earned, if any, before your Early Retirement Date
will be allowed to vest and be paid according to their terms. Your
restricted shares earned, if any, during the year of your Early Retirement
will be pro-rated based on the number of months between January 1 and your
Early Retirement Date. The pro-rated shares will be allowed to vest and be
paid according to their terms.
9) To preserve your rights to make various elections under the Company's
Flexible Benefits Program, Pension Plan and Incentive Investment Plan, you
must contact the Human Resources Department prior to your Early Retirement
Date. To exercise your stock options, contact the Stockholder Services
Department.
10) In exchange for the money and benefits under this agreement, you waive your
right to file, or participate as a class member in, any claims or lawsuits
(whether or not you now know of the basis for the claims or lawsuits) with
federal or state agencies or courts against the Company and its employee
benefit plans, including their present and former directors, officers,
employees, agents and fiduciaries. This waiver and release includes, but is
not limited to, all claims of unlawful discrimination in regard to age,
race, sex, color, religion, national origin and handicap under Title VII of
the Civil Rights Act, the Age
3
<PAGE>
Discrimination in Employment Act or any other federal or state statutes,
all claims for wrongful employment termination or breach of contract and
any other claims relating to your employment or termination of employment
with the Company. This waiver and release also apply to your heirs,
assigns, executors and administrators. This waiver and release do not waive
rights or claims that may arise after the date this agreement is signed,
except as provided in the next sentence. Your acceptance, or acceptance on
your behalf, of the Pension Supplement under paragraph 4 of this agreement
will constitute confirmation of this waiver and general release as if you
signed it again on the date such benefits are accepted.
11) You also agree: (a) not to intentionally disparage the Company, its
employees or products; (b) not to intentionally engage in actions contrary
to the interest of the Company; (c) to honor the terms of your
confidentiality and employment agreements with the Company; (d) to conduct
the transition described here in a constructive and positive manner; and
(e) to keep the terms of this agreement confidential.
12) In addition to the obligations under your employment agreement with the
Company, you agree that, until one year from your Early Retirement Date,
you will not directly or indirectly, as a consultant, employee or owner,
engage in any activity which is competitive with the businesses of the
Company, on your Early Retirement Date, without the Company's prior
approval. I assure you it is the Company's intention to be fair and
reasonable in considering this issue and to grant such approval whenever
your competition will not adversely affect one of the Company's major
businesses. The Company may terminate its payment to you under this
agreement if you fail to comply with your obligations under this agreement.
13) All amounts payable to you or on your behalf under this agreement will be
reported to appropriate governmental agencies as taxable income to the
extent required, and appropriate withholding will be made where necessary.
In addition, all amounts payable to you under this agreement are expressed
as gross amounts, and the Company will not gross up the amounts or
otherwise reimburse you for the taxes you pay relating to such amounts.
14) You are not entitled to any money, Company stock or other severance
benefits as a result of your termination of employment, except as specified
in this agreement.
4
<PAGE>
15) You acknowledge that no promises have been made which are not included in
this agreement, and that this agreement contains the entire understanding
between you and the Company relating to your early retirement. You
acknowledge that the terms of this agreement are contractually binding. If
any portion of this agreement is declared invalid or unenforceable, the
remaining portions of this agreement will continue in force.
16) You acknowledge that you carefully read the terms of this agreement, you
know and understand its content and meaning, you had at least 21 days to
review it, you were encouraged to consult with an attorney before accepting
it and you accept it voluntarily. You have 7 days after you sign this
agreement to revoke it, and this agreement will not become effective or
enforceable until the 7-day period ends.
If this letter accurately reflects our agreement, please sign two copies, and
return one of them to me by December 11, 1995 or I will assume that you rejected
this agreement.
This agreement is subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of Baxter
Healthcare Corporation.

shares are then exercisable, for the number of shares then exercisable. Shares
of Common Stock may not be used to pay the exercise price of the Option unless
certificates representing such shares have been issued and are delivered by the
Optionee in accordance with the requirements specified by the Stockholder
Services Department. Residents of the United Kingdom may not use shares of
Common Stock to pay the exercise price of the Option in any circumstances.
4.3 If the Optionee's employment by the Company is terminated by death or
disability more than 12 months after the date on which the Option is granted,
the Optionee or the Optionee's legal representative or the person or persons to
whom the Optionee's rights under the Option are transferred by will or the laws
of descent and distribution shall have the right to exercise the Option until it
expires in accordance with its terms with respect to all or any part of the
shares remaining subject to the Option (whether or not such shares were
purchasable by the Optionee under section 4.1 at the time of death).
4.4 The Option shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of a date
determined as follows or, if such date is not a Business Day, then the last
Business Day preceding such date: (i) one year after the date on which
employment of the Optionee by the Company shall have been terminated by his
death or disability; (ii) five years after the date on which employment of the
Optionee by the Company shall have been terminated by retirement at or after age
55; (iii) three months after the date on which employment of the Optionee by the
Company shall have terminated except as provided in subsection 4.4(i) and (ii),
unless the Optionee dies or becomes disabled during said three-month period, in
which case the relevant date shall be one year after the termination; or (iv)
ten years from the date on which the Option was granted. "Business Day" shall
mean any day, other than Saturday or Sunday, when the corporate headquarters of
the Company is open for the transaction of business and when the Common Stock is
traded on the New York Stock Exchange. A transfer of an Optionee from employment
by one corporation to another among Baxter International Inc. and its
subsidiaries, or a transfer of an Optionee to employment by another corporation
which assumes the Option or issues a substitute option in a transaction to which
section 424 of the Internal Revenue Code applies, shall not be considered a
termination of employment for purposes of the Option.

Exhibit 10.35
OFFICER INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
This Officer Incentive Compensation Plan ("Plan") of Baxter International Inc.
("Baxter") and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") is adopted
pursuant to the Baxter International Inc. 1994 Incentive Compensation Program
(the "Program") for the purposes stated in the Program. The Plan is intended to
comply with the requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 ("IRC"), as amended, and the related income tax regulations issued
thereunder.
1. Eligibility
Officers of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan if the officer's
participation for a calendar year (or portion of such calendar year)("Plan
Year") is approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of
Baxter ("Committee"). Officers so approved by the Committee shall be referred to
herein as "Participants".
2. Bonus Award
2.1 For each Plan Year, each Participant shall be eligible to receive a cash
payment ("Bonus Award") in accordance with the terms provided herein and any
other terms established by the Committee. To determine a Participant's Bonus
Award, the Committee shall establish a) Company performance goals for the Plan
Year which will include one or more of the following performance measures: net
income growth, operational cash flow, sales growth, the Common Stock price of
Baxter, earnings per share, total shareholder return, and inventory turns
("Company Performance Criteria"), b) a "Bonus Range" for each Participant for
the Plan Year, and c) the amount within a Participant's Bonus Range that will be
payable to a Participant based upon the achievement of the Company Performance
Criteria for the Plan Year. The terms described in the preceding sentence must
be established by April 1 of the Plan Year, and such terms shall not thereafter
be changed, except as permitted by paragraph 2.2.
2.2 By March 31 of each year, the Committee shall assess the extent to which
the Company has achieved the Company Performance Criteria for the preceding
Plan Year, based on the Company's publicly reported results. The Committee
shall exclude the effect of acquisitions, divestitures, changes in accounting
principles, and other extraordinary or non-recurring events which occurred
during the Plan Year when assessing the extent to which the Company has achieved
the Company Performance Criteria for such Plan Year, but only if such exclusion
would enhance the Company's performance relative to the Company Performance
Criteria. The exclusion authorized by the preceding sentence shall only apply to
the extent it is consistent with IRC Section 162(m)(4)(C) and the related
regulations described above. The Committee shall then determine each
Participant's Bonus Award based upon the terms described in paragraph 2.1 above.
The Committee, however, has the discretion to reduce the amount of a
Participant's Bonus Award determined under the preceding sentence. The
Committee's determination shall be consistent with IRC Section 162(m)(4)(C) and
the related regulations described above. No Participant shall receive a Bonus
Award in excess of $2.0 million for any Plan Year for which the Participant is
subject to IRC Section 162(m). The committee may exercise discretion in the
determination of the Bonus Awards earned under the Plan with respect to
participants who are not subject to IRC Section 162(m).
2.3 If an officer's participation in the Plan becomes effective after January
1 of a Plan Year, the Committee shall establish a prorated Bonus Range for such
Participant based on the number of full months remaining in the Plan Year after
he or she becomes a Participant. To the extent applicable, the determination of
a prorated Bonus Range shall be consistent with IRC Section 162(m)(4)(C) and the
related regulations described above.
3. Payment
3.1 Except as otherwise determined by the Committee and except with respect to
Participants who have filed in deferral elections pursuant to paragraph 4, all
Bonus Awards will be paid in cash as soon as possible following determination of
Bonus Awards by the Committee.
3.2 No Participant will be eligible to receive a Bonus Award for a Plan Year
unless he or she continues to be employed by the Company through February 1 of
the following year except as otherwise determined by the Committee. The
Committee's Bonus Award determination with respect to such participant may be
determined in the same manner as provided in paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2 above.
4. Deferral of Payment
Participants may elect to defer payment in accordance with the Baxter
International Inc. and Subsidiaries Deferred Compensation Plan.
