Exhibit 10.35

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made as of the              day of              200    , by
and between Danaher Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation), and
                     (the “Indemnitee”), a director or officer of the
Corporation.

WHEREAS, it is essential to the Corporation to retain and attract as directors
and officers the most capable persons available; and

WHEREAS, the Corporation and Indemnitee recognize the continued difficulty in
obtaining appropriate liability insurance coverage for the Corporation’s
directors and officers in light of the significant and continual increases in
the cost of such insurance and the general trend of insurance companies to
reduce the scope of coverage of such insurance; and

WHEREAS, the Corporation and Indemnitee further recognize the increase in
corporate litigation in general, subjecting directors and officers to expensive
litigation risks at the same time as the availability, cost and scope of
coverage of liability insurance provide increasing challenges to the
Corporation; and

WHEREAS, it is now and has always been the express policy of the Corporation to
indemnify its directors and officers; and

WHEREAS, the Corporation desires the Indemnitee to serve, or continue to serve,
as a director or officer of the Corporation.

NOW THEREFORE, the Corporation and the Indemnitee do hereby agree as follows:

1. Agreement to Serve. The Indemnitee agrees to serve or continue to serve as a
director or officer of the Corporation for so long as the Indemnitee is duly
elected or appointed or until the effective date of Indemnitee’s resignation, if
earlier.

2. Definitions. As used in this Agreement:

Corporation’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the
directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the
period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved,
cease for any reason to constitute a least a majority of the members of the
Board;

(iii) the effective date of a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with
any other entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the
voting securities of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to such
merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding
or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than
50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the surviving
entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and with the

or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Corporation in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of stock of the Corporation, and (iv) Steven
Rales, Mitchell Rales and their respective controlled affiliates.

(C) “Beneficial Owner” shall have the meaning given to such term in Rule 13d-3
under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that Beneficial Owner shall exclude

(b) The term “Corporate Status” shall mean the status of a person who is or was,
or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was

a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interests of the
participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to
have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as
referred to in this Agreement.

(f) The term “Independent Counsel” shall mean a law firm, or a member of a law
firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither currently
is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the
Corporation or the Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party or
(ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for
indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent

3. Indemnity of Indemnitee. Subject to Sections 6, 7 and 9, the Corporation
shall indemnify the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding as to which the
Indemnitee is, was or is threatened to be made a party (or is otherwise
involved) by reason of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, to the fullest extent
permitted by law (as such may be amended from time to time). In furtherance of
the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof:

(a) Indemnification in Third-Party Proceedings. The Corporation shall indemnify
the Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(a) if the
Indemnitee was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any
Proceeding (other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to
procure a judgment in its favor or a Proceeding referred to in Section 6 below)
by reason of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status or by

 

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in connection
therewith, against all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in
connection with such Proceeding, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a
manner which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the
best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

(b) Indemnification in Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. The
Corporation shall indemnify the Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 3(b) if the Indemnitee was or is a party to or threatened to be
made a party to any Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure
a judgment in its favor (other than a Proceeding referred to in Section 6 below)
by reason of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status or by reason of any action
alleged to have been taken or omitted in connection therewith, against all
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in
connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding, if the Indemnitee
acted in good faith and in a manner which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to
be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that, if
applicable law so requires, no indemnification shall be made under this
Section 3(b) in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which the
Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless, and
only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which
such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite
the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the
case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
Expenses as the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

4. Indemnification of Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, to the extent that the Indemnitee has been
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any Proceeding or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein (other than a Proceeding referred
to in Section 6), the Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection
therewith. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination
of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without
prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or
matter.

5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. To the extent that the Indemnitee
is, by reason of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding
to which the Indemnitee is not a party, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified
against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the
Indemnitee in connection therewith.

6. Exceptions to Right of Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee
under this Agreement:

(a) in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the
Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was (i) approved by the Board, or
(ii) in connection with successfully establishing Indemnitee’s right to
indemnification or advancement of Expenses under this Agreement; or

 

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) to the extent the Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance,
and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments to the
Indemnitee and the Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of
insurance, the Indemnitee shall promptly refund such indemnification payments to
the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

7. Notification and Defense of Claim.

(a) The Indemnitee shall notify the Corporation in writing as soon as
practicable of any Proceeding for which indemnity will or could be sought and
provide the Corporation with a copy of any summons, citation, subpoena,
complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to such Proceeding
with which Indemnitee is served. The failure to so notify the Corporation will
not relieve the Corporation from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee
except to the extent the failure adversely affects the Corporation’s rights,
legal position, ability to defend or ability to obtain insurance coverage with
respect to such proceeding. The Corporation will be entitled to participate in
any such Proceeding at its own expense. Indemnitee shall have the right to
engage Indemnitee’s own counsel in connection with such Proceeding. Indemnitee’s
counsel shall cooperate reasonably with the Corporation’s counsel to minimize
the cost of defending claims against the Corporation and Indemnitee.

(b) The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify the Indemnitee under this
Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without
its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any Proceeding in any
manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on the Indemnitee without the
Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor the Indemnitee will
unreasonably withhold or delay their consent to any proposed settlement.

8. Advancement of Expenses. Subject to the provisions of Section 9, any Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection
with a Proceeding for which indemnity could be sought under this Agreement shall
be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such
Proceeding; provided, however, that the payment of such Expenses incurred by or
on behalf of the Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such
Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall
ultimately be determined, after the conclusion of such Proceeding, that the
Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in
this Agreement. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the
financial ability of the Indemnitee to make repayment. Any advances and
undertakings to repay pursuant to this Section 8 shall be unsecured and
interest-free. This Section 8 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee
for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to Section 6.

9. Procedures.

(a) In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of Expenses pursuant to
this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written
request, including in such request such documentation and information as is
reasonably available to the Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine
whether and to what extent the Indemnitee is entitled to

 

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Any such indemnification or
advancement of Expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within (i) in
the case of indemnification under Sections 4, 5, 8 or 9(f), 30 calendar days
after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of the Indemnitee, or
(ii) in the case of all other indemnification, 60 calendar days after receipt by
the Corporation of the written request of the Indemnitee, subject to the
provisions of Sections 9(b) below.

(b) With respect to requests for indemnification under Section 3,
indemnification shall be made unless the Corporation determines that Indemnitee
has not met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 3. Any
determination as to whether Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in Section 3, and any determination that advanced Expenses
must be subsequently repaid to the Corporation, shall be made, in the discretion
of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, (1) by a majority vote of the
directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time
parties to the Proceeding (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum,
(2) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by a majority vote of
disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (3) if there are no
disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by
Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, or (4) by the
stockholders of the Corporation. Any such determination with respect to requests
under Section 3 shall be made within the 60-day period referred to in clause
(ii) of Section 9(a) (unless extended by mutual agreement by the Corporation and
Indemnitee).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if a
request for indemnification is made after a Change in Control, any determination
required to be made pursuant to Section 9(b) above as to whether the Indemnitee
has met the applicable standard of conduct or is required to repay advanced
Expenses shall be made by Independent Counsel selected as provided in this
Section 9(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Indemnitee,
unless the Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation. The party making the determination shall give
written notice to the other party advising it of the identity of the Independent
Counsel so selected. The party receiving such notice may, within seven days
after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the
other party a written objection to such selection. Such objection may be
asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not
meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2, and the
objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such
assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall
act as Independent Counsel. If a written objection is made, the Independent
Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until a
court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within 20 days
after submission by the Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification, no
Independent Counsel shall have been selected or if selected, shall have been
objected to, in accordance with this paragraph either the Corporation or the
Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or other
court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have
been made by the Corporation or the Indemnitee to the other’s selection of
Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a
person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall
designate, and the person with respect to whom an objection is favorably
resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel. The
Corporation shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel
incurred in

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

connection with its acting in such capacity. The Corporation shall pay any and
all reasonable and necessary fees and expenses incident to the procedures of
this paragraph, regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was
selected or appointed.

(d) The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction
or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself,
create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a
manner that the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the
best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding,
had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

(e) For purposes of any determination under this Section 9, to the extent
permitted by law Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have
had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, if his action is
based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, or on information
supplied to him by the officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties,
or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or
records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified
public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable
care by the Enterprise. The provisions of this Section 9(e) shall not be deemed
to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may
be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this
Agreement.

(f) The Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making
such determination with respect to the Indemnitee’s entitlement to
indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon
reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not
privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably
available to the Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in so cooperating
shall be borne by the Corporation (irrespective of the determination as to the
Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Corporation hereby
indemnifies the Indemnitee therefrom.

10. Remedies. The right to indemnification or advancement of Expenses as
provided by this Agreement shall be enforceable by the Indemnitee in any court
of competent jurisdiction. In connection with any determination as to whether
the Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement, the court
shall presume that the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct and
is entitled to indemnification, and, unless otherwise required by law, the
burden of proof shall be on the Corporation to establish by clear and convincing
evidence that the Indemnitee is not so entitled. Neither the failure of the
Board of Directors (or other person or body appointed pursuant to Section 9) to
have made a determination that indemnification is proper in the circumstances
because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual
determination pursuant to Section 9 that Indemnitee has not met such applicable
standard of conduct, shall be a defense to an action brought to enforce this
Agreement or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable
standard of conduct. The Indemnitee’s Expenses actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with successfully establishing the Indemnitee’s right to
indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such Proceeding shall also be
indemnified by the Corporation.

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

11. Partial Indemnification. If the Indemnitee is entitled under any provision
of this Agreement to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of
the Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties or amounts paid in settlement actually
and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection with any
Proceeding but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall
nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for the portion of such Expenses,
judgments, fines, penalties or amounts paid in settlement to which the
Indemnitee is entitled.

12. Contribution. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the
indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for
any reason whatsoever, the Corporation, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee,
shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments,
fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or
for Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event
under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in
light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the
relative benefits received by the Corporation and Indemnitee as a result of the
event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the
relative fault of the Corporation (and its directors, officers, employees and
agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).

13. Acknowledgment of certain matters. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges
that the Corporation has undertaken or may be required in the future to
undertake, by the Securities and Exchange Commission, to submit the question of
indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the
Corporation’s right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee.

14. Subrogation. In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the
Corporation shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the
rights of recovery of the Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and
take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such
documents as are necessary to enable the Corporation to bring suit to enforce
such rights.

15. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon
the later of (a) ten years after the date that the Indemnitee shall have ceased
to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation or, at the request of the
Corporation, as a director, officer, fiduciary, partner, trustee, member or
employee of any Enterprise or (b) the final termination of all Proceedings
pending on the date set forth in clause (a) in respect of which the Indemnitee
is granted rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of
any proceeding commenced by the Indemnitee pursuant to Section 10 of this
Agreement relating thereto.

16. Indemnification Hereunder Not Exclusive. The indemnification and advancement
of Expenses provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which the Indemnitee may be entitled under the Certification of
Incorporation, the By-Laws, any other agreement, any vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors, the General Corporation Law of Delaware, any other law
(common or statutory), or otherwise, both as to action in the Indemnitee’s
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office for
the Corporation. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit
the Corporation

 

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

from purchasing and maintaining insurance, at its expense, to protect itself or
the Indemnitee against any expense, liability or loss incurred by it or the
Indemnitee in any such capacity, or arising out of the Indemnitee’s status as
such, whether or not the Indemnitee would be indemnified against such expense,
liability or loss under this Agreement.

17. No Special Rights. Nothing herein shall confer upon the Indemnitee any right
to continue to serve as an officer or director of the Corporation for any period
of time or at any particular rate of compensation.

18. Savings Clause. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any Section of this
Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the
fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions shall be
deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give
the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest
extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such
provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself
invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to
the intent manifested thereby.

19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall constitute the original.

20. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Corporation
and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the estate,
heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives of the Indemnitee.
The Corporation shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or
indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all, substantially
all or a substantial part, of the business and/or assets of the Corporation
expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and
to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such
succession had taken place.

21. Headings. The headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or
to affect the construction thereof.

22. Modification and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended from time to time to
reflect changes in Delaware law or for other reasons. No supplement,
modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in
writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of
this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other
provision hereof nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

23. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered by
hand or (ii) if mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on

24. Applicable Law. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties
shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of
the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. The
Corporation and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that

(ii) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for
purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this

25. Enforcement. The Corporation expressly confirms and agrees that it has
entered into this Agreement in order to induce the Indemnitee to continue to
serve as an officer or director of the Corporation, and acknowledges that the
Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in continuing in such capacity.

26. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the
parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and supercedes
all prior agreements, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or
representative of any party hereto in respect of the subject matter contained

matter contained herein is hereby terminated and cancelled. For avoidance of
doubt, the parties confirm that the foregoing does not apply to or limit the

Incorporation or By-Laws.
