BAUSCH HEALTH ANNOUNCES PRICING OF PRIVATE OFFERING OF SENIOR NOTES

LAVAL, Quebec, Dec. 17, 2019 — Bausch Health Companies Inc. (NYSE/TSX: BHC) (“Bausch Health” or the “Company”) announced today that it has priced its previously announced offering of $1,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.000% senior notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and $1,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes” and, together with the 2028 Notes, the “Notes”). The aggregate size of the offering of the Notes is $2,500,000,000, which reflects an increase of $1,250,000,000 from the previously announced offering size of $1,250,000,000. The 2028 Notes will be sold to investors at a price of 100% of the principal amount thereof and the 2030 Notes will be sold to investors at a price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. Bausch Health intends to use the proceeds from the offering of the Notes, along with cash on hand, to finance amounts owed under the Company’s recently announced $1.21 billion settlement agreement (the “Settlement”) relating to the U.S. putative securities class litigation filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey (which is subject to court approval), and redeem $1.24 billion aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, as well as to pay related fees and expenses.

The Notes will be guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Company’s credit agreement and existing senior notes. Consummation of the offering of the Notes is subject to various closing conditions, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully complete this transaction on the terms described above, or at all.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities law and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes will be offered in the United States only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States tonon-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the public by prospectus under applicable Canadian securities laws and, accordingly, any offer and sale of the Notes in Canada will be made on a basis which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of such securities laws.

This news release is being issued pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
