Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Audit Committee
Teleflex Incorporated
401(k) Savings Plan
Limerick, Pennsylvania

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Teleflex Incorporated 401(k) Savings Plan as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards as established by the Auditing Standards Board (United States) and in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Teleflex Incorporated 401(k) Savings Plan as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for investment and reportable transactions, together referred to as “supplemental information,” as of and for the year ended December 31, 2008, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE A	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
	Significant Accounting Policies
	The significant accounting policies of the Teleflex Incorporated 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) employed in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follow.
	Valuation of Investments — The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices, which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Units of the Retirement Savings Trust are valued at net asset value at year-end. The Teleflex Incorporated (the “Company”) stock fund is valued at its year-end unit closing price (comprised of year-end market price plus uninvested cash position). Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
	Investment Contracts Subject to FASB Staff Position (FSP AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1) — As described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position, FSP AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans (the “FSP”), investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan.
	The Plan invests in investment contracts through a collective trust. Contract value for this collective trust is based on the net asset value of the fund as reported by Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company, the trustee (“VFTC”). As required by the FSP, the statements of net assets available for benefits present the fair value of the investment in the collective trust from fair value to contract value relating to the investment contracts. The statements of changes in net assets available for benefits are prepared on the contract value basis. These requirements are effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 2006.

Revenue Recognition and Method of Accounting — All transactions are recorded on the accrual basis. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is accrued when earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Capital gain distributions are included in dividend income. Expenses are recorded as incurred.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

General Description of the Plan

A general description of the Plan follows. Participants should refer to the Plan Agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

General — The Plan is a defined contribution plan, which was implemented effective July 1, 1985. Employees of the Company who have attained age 21 are eligible to participate in the Plan. Full-time employees are eligible to enter the plan at the date of hire. Part-time employees need one year of service before they are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

The Plan includes an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 4975(e)7. The ESOP can be used exclusively to provide employer contributions that match participants’ Section 401(k) salary deferral contributions and, in certain instances, to provide discretionary employer contributions to the Plan.

Contributions — Participants may contribute between 2% and 50% of their compensation on a pre-tax basis (highly compensated employees may only contribute a maximum of 6%). The employer matching contribution and/or employer discretionary matching contribution varies by division. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified benefit plans (via a rollover into the Plan).

Participant Accounts — Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution, the employer matching contribution and/or employer discretionary matching contribution, as well as an allocation of Plan earnings. Participants have access to their accounts 24 hours a day/7 days per week via a 1-800 customer service center and a website. Fund transfers and investment election changes may be elected daily. A participant may stop, start, or change his/her 401(k) salary deferral contribution percent as often as his/her local payroll will allow.

Plan Loans — Active employees may elect to take up to two loans from the Plan at any given time. As required by law, a loan amount is limited to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the participant’s vested account and must be repaid within five years unless the loan is for the purchase of a primary residence. Loan repayments are processed via payroll deduction on an after-tax basis. Any outstanding loan(s) not repaid within 60 days from an employee’s date of termination, or within the first 12 months of an employee’s leave of absence (including long-term disability), is processed as a taxable distribution.

Vesting — Participants are always 100% vested in their own 401(k) salary deferral contributions. Most participants are 100% vested in their employer matching contributions after one year of employment; however, participants in certain divisions are 100% vested in their employer matching contributions after three years of employment. Participants are 100% vested in their employer discretionary contributions after five years of employment.

Payment of Benefits — The Plan provides that a participant may elect to withdraw 100% of his/her vested account balance at termination of employment. A participant may also elect to withdraw 100% of his/her vested account balance in the event of total and permanent disability and the attainment of age 59 1/2. A participant may elect to withdraw his/her Rollover Account at any time.

Forfeitures — Forfeitures of terminated participants’ nonvested accounts are used to reduce the amount of future contributions required to be made to the Plan by the Company. The amount of unallocated forfeitures at December 31, 2008 and 2007, was $233,854 and $1,303,115, respectively.

Plan Termination —The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Company. In the event of Plan termination, distribution of participant accounts shall be in accordance with Article V of the Plan document.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FASB Statement No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This statement indicates, among other things, that a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

SFAS No. 157 defines fair value based upon an exit price model.

Relative to SFAS No. 157, the FASB issued FASB Staff Positions (FSP) 157-1, 157-2, 157-3 and 157-4. FSP 157-1 amends SFAS No. 157 to exclude SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, and its related interpretive accounting pronouncements that address leasing transactions, while FSP 157-2 delayed the effective date of the application of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. FSP 157-3 addresses considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that asset is not active. FSP 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively.

The Plan adopted SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008, with the exception of the application of the provisions of FSP 157-2 and FSP 157-4. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 157 was not significant to the 2008 financial statements. The adoption of the provisions of FSP 157-2 and FSP 157-4 is not anticipated to materially impact the amounts reported in the Plan’s financial statements.

December 31, 2008 and 2007

	In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which allows measurement of specified financial instruments, warranty and insurance contracts at fair value on a contract-by-contract basis, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in each period. SFAS No. 159 is effective at the beginning of the fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. As of January 1, 2008, the Plan did not elect to value any specified financial instruments or warranty or insurance contracts at fair value. Therefore, the adoption of SFAS No. 159 had no impact on the Plan’s financial statements.
	Reclassifications — Certain 2007 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2008 presentation.
NOTE B	ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
	The Plan is administered by a committee of at least three members appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors. The committee is the Plan Administrator and fiduciary for ERISA purposes. The Board of Directors of the Company appointed Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company as trustee of the Plan effective September 30, 2004. The Company pays for all administrative and recordkeeping costs associated with operating the Plan. Investment management fees charged by each mutual fund are netted against returns. Investment management fees charged by the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust VIII (which are collective investment funds) are charged to those participants with balances in those funds.
NOTE C	TAX STATUS OF THE PLAN
	The Plan has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated July 1, 2003, indicating that the Plan is a qualified plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.

NONPARTICIPANT-DIRECTED INVESTMENTS

Company contributions are invested in Company stock and are nonparticipant directed until the participant becomes vested, at which time the participant can direct those funds to another investment of the Plan. The entire Company stock fund is considered to be nonparticipant directed because the amount that the participants can direct is not readily determinable. Information about the net assets and the significant components of the changes in net assets relating to the nonparticipant-directed investments is as follows:

	There was one plan merger during the year ended December 31, 2008. The Plan executed an acquisition of the Arrow International Inc. 401(k) Plan during the year ended December 31, 2008. The merged plan had net assets of $72,782,529. There were no plan mergers during the year ended December 31, 2007.
	The transferred net assets have been recognized in the accounts of the Plan at the balances previously carried in the accounts of the merged plan. The changes in net assets of the combined plan are included in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.

NOTE G	RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
	The Plan invests in shares of mutual funds managed by an affiliate of Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (“VFTC”). VFTC acts as trustee for only those investments as defined by the Plan. Transactions in such investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions, which are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules.
NOTE H	PLAN AMENDMENTS
	The Plan was amended during the Plan year ended December 31, 2008, to comply with requirements of Sections 401(k) and (m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Also, the plan amendment reflects the merger of the Arrow International Inc. 401(k) Plan with and into the Plan.
NOTE I	VANGUARD RETIREMENT SAVINGS MASTER TRUST
	A portion of the Plan’s investments are in the Master Trust, which was established for the investment of assets of eligible VFTC trusts and tax-qualified pension plans. Each participating retirement plan has an undivided interest in the Master Trust. The assets of the Master Trust are held by VFTC (the “Trustee”). At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Plan’s interest in the net assets of the Master Trust was approximately .302% and .277%, respectively. Investment income and administrative expenses relating to the Master Trust are allocated to the individual plans based upon average monthly balances invested by each plan.
	The following table presents the fair values of investments for the Master Trust at December 31, 2008 and 2007:

NOTE K	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
	SFAS No. 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to the valuation used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows.
	Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices to similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.
	A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
	The following table provides the assets carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2008:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Shares of registered investment companies	$	96,889,581	$	—	$	—
Employer securities	$	33,692,228	$	—	$	—
Common collective trust	$	—	$	50,303,734	$	—
Participant loans receivable	$	—	$	—	$	5,828,916

Investments in shares of registered investment companies, employer securities and cash equivalents have quoted prices for identical assets in active markets; therefore, the investments are measured at fair value using these readily available Level 1 inputs.

The common collective trust is an over-the-counter security with no quoted readily available Level 1 inputs and, therefore, is measured at fair value using inputs that are directly observable in active markets and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy using the income approach.

The fair value of participant loans receivable was derived using a discounted cash flow model with inputs derived from unobservable market data. The participant loans receivable are included at their carrying values in the statements of net assets available for benefits, which approximated their fair values at December 31, 2008.
