Item 6. |
Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
Without prejudice to any indemnity to which such person may
be contractually or otherwise entitled and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Dutch law, as the same exists or may be amended (but, in the case of such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Registrant to provide
broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Registrant to provide prior to such amendment), the Registrants articles of association (the Articles) provide that the Registrant will indemnify any director or officer
who was, is, or becomes in his or her capacity as director or officer a party or witness or is or becomes threatened to be made a party or witness to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, or
administrative or any action, suit, or proceeding in order to obtain information, against any and all liabilities including all expenses (including attorneys fees), judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and other financial losses,
actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding.
Under Dutch law, indemnification generally may not be
available to any person in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged in a final and non-appealable judgment by a Dutch or other court of competent
2
jurisdiction to be liable for intentional recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Registrant unless such court determines that such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to such indemnification despite the adjudication of such liability, or to the extent any related costs and losses have been insured and reimbursed to such person under any applicable insurance policy. Also, indemnification may
not be available in respect of any claim brought by the Registrant and for which the person is adjudged in a final and non-appealable judgment to be liable to the Registrant unless the court or the Registrant shall have determined that
indemnification of some or all expenses incurred by such person is appropriate and permitted under applicable law.
The Registrant also has entered into
indemnification agreements with each of its directors and certain of its officers that provide them with substantially similar indemnification rights to those provided under the Registrants Articles.
The Articles also provide that the Registrant may maintain an insurance policy which insures directors and officers against certain liabilities which might be
incurred in connection with the performance of their duties. The Registrant currently maintains such a policy. The description of indemnity herein is merely a summary of the provisions in the Articles and other indemnification agreements, and such
description shall not limit or alter the provisions in the Articles or other indemnification agreements. The Shareholder Agreement dated as of February 27, 2015, among the Registrant, Abbott Laboratories (Abbott) and the Abbott
subsidiaries named therein, provides for indemnification of the Registrant and its directors and officers by Abbott and such Abbott subsidiaries, and of Abbott and such Abbott subsidiaries and their respective directors and officers by the
Registrant, against certain liabilities.

reference). |
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
3
change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the Calculation of Registration Fee table in this effective Registration Statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or
any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
***
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Based upon and
subject to the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth in this opinion letter and to any matters, documents or events not disclosed to us, we express the following opinions:
1. |
The Plan Shares, when issued pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. |
The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:
A. |
The information contained in the Extract does not constitute conclusive evidence of the facts reflected in it. |
B. |
Pursuant to Article 2:7 of the Dutch Civil Code, any transaction entered into by a legal entity may be nullified by the legal entity itself or its liquidator in bankruptcy proceedings (curator) if the purpose of
that entity were transgressed by the transaction and the other party to the transaction knew or should have known this without independent investigation (wist of zonder eigen onderzoek moest weten). The Netherlands Supreme Court (Hoge Raad
der Nederlanden) has ruled that in determining whether the purpose of a legal entity are transgressed, not only the description of the purpose in that legal entitys articles of association (statuten) is decisive, but all (relevant)
circumstances must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the legal entity were served by the transaction. Based on the purpose clause contained in the Articles of Association, we have no reason to believe that by entering
into the Deed of Issue the Company would transgress the description of the purpose contained in its Articles of Association. However, we cannot assess whether there are other relevant circumstances that must be taken into account, in particular
whether the interests of the Company are served by entering into the Deeds of Issue since this is a matter of fact. |
C. |
The opinions expressed in this opinion letter may be limited or affected by: |
|
a. |
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganisation, moratorium or other similar laws or procedures now or hereinafter in effect, relating to or affecting the enforcement or protection of creditors rights
generally; |
5
|
b. |
the provisions of fraudulent preference and fraudulent conveyance (Actio Pauliana) and similar rights available in other jurisdictions to liquidators in bankruptcy proceedings or creditors; |
|
c. |
claims based on tort (onrechtmatige daad); and |
|
d. |
sanctions and measures implemented or effective in the Netherlands under the Sanctions Act 1977 (Sanctiewet 1977), or European Union regulations. |
D. |
As used in the opinions expressed in paragraph 1 of this opinion letter, the term non-assessable - which term has no equivalent in Dutch - means that a holder of a share will not by reason of merely being
such a holder, be subject to assessment or calls by the Company or its creditors for further payment on such share. |
E. |
This opinion letter does not purport to express any opinion or view on the operational rules and procedures of any clearing or settlement system or agency. |
