Hercules Holding II, LLC is held by a private investor group, including affiliates of Bain Capital Investors, LLC, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and Merrill Lynch Global Private Equity, and affiliates of HCA, Inc. founder Dr. Thomas F.

However, the Reporting Person disclaims membership in any such group and disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.
( 2 )Frisco Partners may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership in respect of 17,804,125 units of Hercules Holding II, LLC, by virtue of proxies assigned to Frisco Partners by certain trusts and investment entities, and therefore may be deemed to own indirectly the same number of shares of common stock of HCA Inc. Frisco Partners is a general partnership organized under Tennessee law, the partners of which are Dr. Thomas F. Frist, Jr., Patricia F. Elcan, Thomas F. Frist, III, and William R. Frist.
