Explanation of Responses:

     On July 21, 1998, in connection with the proposed merger (the "Merger") of
LIB Acquisition Corp. (the "Purchaser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Johnson &
Johnson ("Parent"), with and into DePuy, Inc., the Purchaser and Parent have
entered into a Stockholder Agreement (the "Stockholder Agreement") with certain
stockholders (the "Stockholders") of DePuy, Inc., which are indirect wholly
owned subsidiaries of Roche Holding Ltd. In the Stockholder Agreement, the
Stockholders have agreed with Parent and the Purchaser to tender to the
Purchaser, pursuant to the Purchaser's tender offer (the "Offer") for all the
outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of DePuy, Inc.
(the "Shares"), all the Shares owned by them representing an aggregate of
83,000,000 Shares, or approximately 84.0% of the Shares outstanding as of July
21, 1998, at a price of $35 per share. In addition, any Shares that any such
Stockholder may subsequently acquire (by exercise of stock options or otherwise)
automatically become subject to the provisions of the Stockholder Agreement. If
the Purchaser accepts for payment and pays for any Shares tendered under the
Offer, the Purchaser must exercise such purchase option immediately following
the Offer (unless all the Shares subject to the Stockholder Agreement have been
tendered by the Stockholders and accepted for payment by the Purchaser under the
Offer). Pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement, each Stockholder has also
delivered a proxy to the Purchaser to vote, or grant a consent or approval in
respect of, the Shares subject to the Stockholder Agreement against any
transaction with a third party other than the transactions contemplated by the
Offer and the Merger.
