                  WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement,
Parent, Purchaser and Medex, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the "COMPANY") have
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "MERGER AGREEMENT"), pursuant
to which (i) Purchaser has agreed, among other things, to commence a cash tender
offer (as such tender offer may hereafter be amended from time to time in
accordance with the Merger Agreement, the "OFFER") to purchase all shares of
common stock, $.01 par value, of the Company (the "COMPANY COMMON STOCK") and
(ii) Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company (the "MERGER"); and

                  WHEREAS, Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner of,
and has the sole right to vote and dispose of, the number of shares of Company
Common Stock set forth on Schedule A hereto together with any stock purchase
rights related thereto (the "SHARES"); and

                  WHEREAS, as an inducement and a condition to its entering into
the Merger Agreement and incurring the obligations set forth therein, including
the Offer and the Merger, Parent has required that Shareholder enter into this
Agreement;

verb, "TRANSFER" shall have a correlative meaning.

                  2. Tender of Shares; Exercise of Options.

   
                  (a) Shareholder hereby agrees to tender and not withdraw all
Owned Shares (or cause the record owner thereof to tender and not withdraw such
Owned Shares), pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer or to
cause such Shares to be sold to the Company promptly after the consummation of
the Offer but in no event earlier than January 2, 1997, as contemplated by 
Section 6.16 of the Merger Agreement. 
    

   
                  (b) Immediately after the expiration of the Offer but in no
event earlier than January 2, 1997, Shareholder will cause all Option Shares to

Merger Agreement. 
    

                  3. Intentionally Deleted.

                  4. Restrictions on Transfer and Proxies; No Solicitation.

                  (a) Shareholder shall not directly or indirectly: (i) until
the Merger Agreement is consummated or terminated (unless a Purchase Event has
occurred hereunder or such termination results in a Purchase Event hereunder),
and except as provided in Section 2 hereof, Transfer (including the Transfer of
any securities of an Affiliate which is the record holder of Owned Shares if, as
the result of such Transfer, such Person would cease to be an Affiliate of
Shareholder) to any Person any or all Owned Shares or Option Shares; (ii) except
for proxies or powers of attorney granted in connection with the 831 Meeting,
deposit any Owned Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement,
understanding or arrangement with respect


                                        2
<PAGE>   3
to such Owned Shares; or (iii) take any action that would make any
representation or warranty of Shareholder contained herein untrue or incorrect
or would result in a breach by Shareholder of its obligations under this
Agreement.

                  (b) Shareholder shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its

negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any
Acquisition Proposal. Shareholder will not, and will cause the Covered Persons
not to, (i) solicit, directly or through an intermediary, any inquiries with
respect to, or the making of, any Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) engage in
negotiations or discussions with, or furnish any confidential information
relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries to, any Third Party relating to an
Acquisition Proposal; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit
Shareholder or any Covered Person from taking or omitting to take any action
permitted to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Company under Section 6.4(a)
of the Merger Agreement in their capacities as officers, directors, employees,
representatives and agents of the Company.

                  5. The Option.

                  (a) Grant of Option. Shareholder hereby grants to Purchaser an
exclusive and irrevocable option (an "OPTION") to purchase, during the period
specified in Section 5(c)(i) hereof and subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 5(e) hereof, all, but not less than all, of such Shareholder's Owned
Shares at the exercise price specified in Section 5(b) hereof.

                  (b) Exercise Price. The exercise price for each Owned Share
(the "PER SHARE EXERCISE PRICE") with respect to which an Option is exercised
shall be the merger consideration provided for in the Merger Agreement;
provided, however, that if the Merger Consideration of $23.50 provided for in
the Merger Agreement is increased after the date hereof, the Per Share Exercise
Price shall be increased in the same proportion, and if the Option shall have
been exercised before such increase in the merger consideration, then, if and
when the Merger becomes effective, Purchaser shall promptly pay or deliver to
the Shareholder whose Owned Shares have been purchased pursuant to the Option
the additional consideration which such Shareholder would have been entitled to
receive if such purchase had occurred after such increase in the merger
consideration.

                  (c) Exercise of Option.

                           (i) Each Option may be exercised, with respect to the
         Owned Shares, by Purchaser at any time, from and after the occurrence
         of a Purchase Event (as defined in Section 5(c)(ii) below) and prior to
         one year after the Purchase Event by sending a written notice (a
         "NOTICE OF EXERCISE") to such Shareholder at the address specified for
         notice pursuant to Section 9(f), specifying (ii) the location, date and
         time


                                        3
<PAGE>   4
         for the closing (a "CLOSING") of such purchase (which date shall be no
         later than 10 business days and no earlier than two business days after
         the date such notice is given, and in no event earlier than the date on
         or by which the condition specified in Section 5(e)(i) has been
         satisfied or waived) and (ii) the Per Share Exercise Price.

                           (ii) Each of the following events is a Purchase
         Event;

                           1) any person or group (as defined in Section
                  13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than Parent or any
                  subsidiary of Parent) shall have become the beneficial owner
                  (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
                  Act), of at least 20% of any class or series of capital stock
                  of the Company (including the Company's Common Stock);

                           2) any one or more persons (other than Parent or any
                  subsidiary of Parent) shall have commenced or shall have filed
                  a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as
                  amended, with respect to, a tender offer or exchange offer to
                  purchase any shares of the Company's Common Stock such that,
                  upon consummation of such offer, such person would own or
                  control 20% or more of the then outstanding Company Common
                  Stock and Issuer has redeemed its rights under the Rights
                  Agreement or such Rights Agreement has been declared invalid
                  or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction;

                           3) the Company's Board of Directors shall have
                  received a superior takeover proposal and the Board or any
                  committee thereof enters into a definitive agreement with
                  respect to a superior takeover proposal;

                           4) the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to
                  Section 8.1(e) thereof; or

                           5) the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to
                  Section 8.1(f)(i) thereof.

                  (d) Closing. At the Closing:

                           (i) Purchaser shall deliver to the Shareholder who
         owns the Shares subject to the Option (x) the Per Share Exercise Price
         multiplied by (y) the number of such Shareholder's Owned Shares in
         immediately available funds; and

                           (ii) the Shareholder shall deliver to Purchaser
         certificates representing such Shareholder's Owned Shares free and
         clear of all liens, claims, charges, encumbrances, rights or interests
         of any kind or nature whatsoever, duly


                                        4
<PAGE>   5
         endorsed for transfer or accompanied by stock powers duly executed in
         blank, and any other documents necessary to effectuate and evidence the
         transfer.

                  (e) Shareholder's Condition to Closing. The obligations of a
         Shareholder to proceed with any Closing shall be subject to no order,
         statute, rule, regulation, executive order, stay, decree, judgment or
         injunction having been enacted, entered, issued, promulgated or
         enforced by any court or governmental authority, subsequent to the date
         of this Agreement, which prohibits or restricts any of the transactions
         contemplated by this Agreement.

         6. Additional Payment Under Certain Circumstances. If after the
Purchaser has exercised the Option, the Purchaser directly or indirectly sells
or otherwise disposes of any Shares purchased pursuant to the Option (other than
in the Merger or the offer) then the Purchaser shall pay to the Shareholder, as
promptly as practicable after such sale or other disposition, the amount, if any
(the "Excess Amount"), by which the aggregate net proceeds received by the
Purchaser upon such sale or other disposition exceeds the aggregate price paid
by the Purchaser to the Shareholder upon exercise of the Option for the purchase
of the Shares so sold or disposed of. In the event that the Purchaser receives
securities or other property other than cash upon such sale or disposition, the
"price," for purposes of calculating the Excess Amount, if any, shall be deemed
to be the amount of cash received upon the sale of the Shares plus the fair
market value of such securities and the property at the time of receipt. For
purposes of the foregoing, (i) the fair market value of securities which are
publicly traded shall be deemed to be the closing price for such securities on
the date of receipt (or, if not a business day, on the next preceding business
day) on the New York Stock Exchange, if the securities are listed thereon, or,
if not so listed, on any other national securities exchange or national
quotation system on which such securities are listed and principally traded, or,
if not so listed on any national securities exchange or national quotation
system, the average of the closing bid and asked prices in the over-the-counter
market on the date of receipt (or, if not a business day, on the next preceding
business day); (ii) the fair market value of any other property shall be as
determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm (the fees of which
will be borne equally by the Company and the Purchaser) mutually selected by the
parties or, if none can be so selected, then as selected by the President of the
New York Stock Exchange, Inc. For purposes of determining the Excess Amount, if

                  10. Miscellaneous.

                  (a) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between

prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof.

                  (b) Shareholder agrees that this Agreement and the respective

successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the
rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned or delegated by any
party (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written
consent of the other parties; provided, that Purchaser may assign or delegate
its rights and obligations hereunder to Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, but
no such assignment or delegation shall relieve Purchaser of its obligations
hereunder. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit

                  (e) This Agreement may not be amended, changed, supplemented,
or otherwise modified or terminated, except upon the execution and delivery of a
written agreement executed by each of the parties hereto. The parties may waive
compliance by the other parties hereto with any representation, agreement or
condition otherwise required to be complied with by such other party hereunder,
but any such waiver shall be effective only if in writing executed by the
waiving party.

                  (f) All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed given upon (a) transmitter's confirmation of a
receipt of a facsimile transmission, (b) confirmed delivery by a standard
overnight carrier or when delivered by hand or (c) the expiration of five
business days after the day when mailed by certified or registered mail, postage
prepaid, addressed at the following addresses (or at such other address for a
party as shall be specified by like notice):

                  If to Shareholder:    To the Address specified under the
                                        Shareholder's name on the signature page
                                        hereto.

                  If to Parent or       To the Address specified in the Merger
                  Purchaser:            Agreement.


                  (g) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that in
the event of any breach of this Agreement, each non-breaching party would be
irreparably and immediately harmed and could not be made whole by monetary
damages. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto (a) will waive, in any
action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and
(b) shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be
entitled at law or in equity, to compel specific performance of this Agreement
in any action instituted in any state or federal court.

                  (h) All rights, powers and remedies provided under this
Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be
cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any thereof by any party
shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right,
power or remedy by such party. The failure of any party hereto to exercise any
right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in
respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other
party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice of the
parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver by such
party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to
demand such compliance.

                  (i) This Agreement shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the Laws of the State of Ohio (regardless of the Laws that might
otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflict of laws) as to all
matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and
remedies.
