vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The by-laws also permit the Registrant to secure and maintain insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such

against public policy as expressed in the 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

All documents
subsequently filed by the Registrant with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act (other than any report or portion thereof furnished or deemed furnished under any Current Report on Form 8-K), prior to

statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The validity of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock offered pursuant to the Prospectus will be passed upon for the Registrant by John W.

(which is expected to be complete on October 31, 2014), Mr. Wesley will continue to serve as Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer and own shares of the Registrant's Common Stock.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Limitation of Liability of Directors
The
Registrant's certificate of incorporation limits the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law permits the certificate of incorporation to provide that directors of a corporation will not be personally
liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability:
•
for any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders,
•
for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
•
under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law relating to unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, or
•
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
The limitation of liability
does not apply to liabilities arising under the federal or state securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunctive relief or rescission.
Indemnification of Officers and Directors
The
Registrant's certificate of incorporation and by-laws provide that each person who is, or was, or has agreed to become a director or officer of Halyard, and each person who is, or was, or has agreed to serve at the Registrant's request as
a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, will be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. However, no
indemnification will be provided to any director, officer, employee or agent if the indemnification sought is in connection with a proceeding initiated by such person without the authorization of the Registrant's Board of Directors. The by-laws
provide that this right to indemnification is a contract right and is not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or may in the future acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws, agreements,
vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The by-laws also permit the Registrant to secure and maintain insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such
capacity, regardless of whether the by-laws would permit the Registrant to indemnify such person against such liability.
The Registrant has obtained
directors' and officers' liability insurance providing coverage to its directors and officers.
Applicable Statute
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware authorizes indemnification by the Registrant of directors and officers under the
circumstances provided in the provisions of the by-Laws described above, and requires such indemnification for expenses actually and reasonably incurred to the extent a director or officer is successful in the defense of any action, or any claim,
issue or matter therein.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(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 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 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in this
registration statement;
(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;
Provided, however
, That
paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in 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 purposes 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 of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, 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 of 1933 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 Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the 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 Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
