2 The design and evaluation process that supports sustainable product innovation within the Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies, moving us towards a healthier future. What is EARTHWARDS ® ? 2 EARTHWARDS ® Objectives Support the development of more sustainable products Provide tools & resources to enable sustainable innovation Enable meaningful and credible claims

3 EARTHWARDS ® Process 3 The EARTHWARDS ® process is regularly reviewed by a panel of sustainability experts from government, academia, business, and environmental NGOs. A proprietary online scorecard is used to evaluate products in seven key categories that we feel have the most potential for environmental and social impacts.

4 3 rd Party Assurance – UL Environment The Earthwards® process goes through an annual independent 3 rd party assurance process conducted by UL Environment. Verifies that program guidelines and minimum requirements are being properly followed. These guidelines and requirements provide a framework that allows Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies to make continuous product improvements across a broad range of lifecycle impact areas.

5 Why Undertake the Earthwards® Process? 5 WHY EARTHWARDS? Our proprietary Earthwards® process supports our commitment to improving the sustainability of our products. The process is a valuable resource that guides brand teams in developing and marketing products that help people, the environment and our business. 1. INNOVATION & DIFFERENTIATION Lifecycle thinking helps uncover innovative ideas to meet the needs of our customers and consumers. 3. COMMUNICATION OPPORTUNITIES Provides a holistic context for framing the discussion of substantial sustainability improvements across the entire lifecycle. 4. COMMITMENT TO OUR VALUES The Earthwards® process embodies Our Credo commitment to protect the environment. 2. ENHANCED CREDIBILITY The review panel of sustainability experts and annual 3 rd party audit ensures credibility of all product claims.

6 Earning EARTHWARDS ® Recognition 6 To be considered for EARTHWARDS ® recognition, teams must use the scorecard to take a product through a four-step evaluation process. 1234

7 Earning EARTHWARDS ® Recognition Teams use the scorecard to go through a four-step process 1. SATISFY PRE-REQUISITES Teams answer a series of questions that gauge their general understanding of the sustainable attributes of their product: What materials are we using? Where do they come from? What happens to a product after it’s used? 7

8 Earning EARTHWARDS ® Recognition Teams use the scorecard to go through a four-step process 2. UNDERGO SCREENING The product undergoes a life cycle screening that examines its environmental impacts and quantifies its improvements in up to seven different categories. 8

9 Earning EARTHWARDS ® Recognition Teams use the scorecard to go through a four-step process 3. IDENTIFY IMPROVEMENTS A product must show three significant sustainability improvements across the seven category areas in order to be recognized as an EARTHWARDS ® product. 9

10 Earning EARTHWARDS ® Recognition Teams use the scorecard to go through a four-step process 4. SUBMIT FOR REVIEW Teams then submit a scorecard with their results to a review board of both internal and an external product sustainability expert. The board then determines if the product warrants EARTHWARDS ® recognition and provides suggestions for further improvements. 10

11 STRATAFIX TM Symmetric PDS TM Plus 40% reduction in packaging materials* 100% recycled fiber paper based packaging with an average of 35% post-consumer content, a 56% improvement* 43% increase in shipping efficiency* 11 *Compared to traditional Ethicon sutures

12 BAND-AID ® Brand Adhesive Bandages >10% reduction in secondary packaging and 20% weight reduction of tertiary packaging* 30% less energy used during manufacturing compared to previous process* Use of socially responsible local cooperatives to source post consumer recycled paper 12 *Product comparisons based on previous version of the product and based on size reductions and material selection

13 ZYTIGA ® (abiraterone acetate) 64% fewer raw materials used by implementing green chemistry to improve the overall yield* 78% less water used in synthesis* 87% less hazardous waste from synthesis* Wet crystallization and extraction process used to reduce to lean process and minimize potential worker exposures to the API 13 * As compared to the previous API synthesis process
