| (a) | Amount beneficially owned:
The information contained in rows 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 on each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13G is incorporated by reference into this Item 4. As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 215,303,036 shares of the Class A common stock of Medline Inc. (the "Class A Common Stock"), consisting of (i) 85,733,022 shares of the Class A Common Stock held by HFCP X Parallel, (ii) 8,955,577 shares of Class A Common Stock held by HFCP X Parallel-A, (iii) 4,806,160 shares of Class A Common Stock held by Mend Partners II, (iv) 19,310 shares of Class A Common Stock held by Mend Investment I, and (v) 115,788,967 shares of Class A Common Stock issuable to Medline Investment I upon exchange for an equal number of the common units of Medline Holdings L.P. (the "Common Units") held by Medline Investment I. The Common Units held by Mend Investment I are paired with an equal number of shares of the Class B common stock of Medline Inc. (the "Class B Common Stock"). Pursuant to the terms of an exchange agreement, dated as of December 16, 2025, holders of Common Units have the right to exchange their Common Units for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and re-classifications. These exchange rights do not expire. Shares of the Class B Common Stock have no economic value and have one vote per share. One share of Class B Common Stock is issued for each Common Unit held. Upon an exchange of Common Units for shares of the Class A Common Stock, an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder will be automatically cancelled. Mend GP is the general partner of Mend Partners II and may, as a result, be deemed to beneficially own the 4,806,160 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Mend Partners II. Mend Investment GP is the general partner of Mend Investment I and HFCP X is the managing member of Mend Investment GP and, as a result, each of Mend Investment GP and HFCP X may be deemed to beneficially own the 115,808,277 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Mend Investment I.

Investors X Ltd. is the general partner of Investors X GP and may, as a result, be deemed to beneficially own the 215,303,036 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Investors X GP. A three-member board of directors of Investors X Ltd. has voting and investment discretion over the securities held by HFCP X Parallel, HFCP X Parallel-A, Mend Partners II., and Mend Investment I. Each of the members of the board of directors of Investors X Ltd. disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares. | |
