entitled to receive apart from this Agreement, you unconditionally release and forever discharge the Company, and its affiliates, parents, subsidiaries, related companies, successors, predecessors, and assigns, and each of its and their respective

 TTF HOLDINGS CORP. AND ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES 

AGREEMENT REGARDING COMPETITION AND PROTECTION OF PROPRIETARY INTERESTS 

TTF Holdings Corp. (“TTF”) believes that recruiting and retaining the best people to work in its highly competitive businesses
means treating them fairly, rewarding their contributions, and thereby establishing a strong partnership for our collective well-being and continued success. Working at TTF and/or any of its affiliates provides associates with specialized and unique
knowledge and confidential information and access to key business relationships, which, if used in competition with TTF and/or its affiliates, would cause harm to TTF and/or its affiliates. As such, it is reasonable to expect a commitment from our
associates that protects the legitimate business interests of TTF and its affiliates, and therefore, their own interests. Please read and sign this Agreement in the spirit intended: our collective long-term growth and success. 

I understand that I am or will be employed by or enter into a relationship with TTF Holdings Corp., including its subsidiaries and/or
affiliates (collectively the “Company”), and will learn and have access to the Company’s confidential, trade secret, and proprietary information and key business relationships. I understand that the products and services that
the Company develops, provides, and markets are unique. Further, I know that my promises in this Agreement are an important way for the Company to protect its proprietary interests.  

I agree that the Company is engaged in a business which is highly specialized, the identity and particular needs of Company’s customers
and vendors are not generally known, and the documents and information regarding, among other things, the Company’s employees and talent, the Company’s Business System, customers, vendors, services, products, technology, formulations,
methods of operation, sales, marketing, pricing, and costs are highly confidential and proprietary. 
 I acknowledge and agree that I have
been given an adequate period of time to consider this Agreement and to have this Agreement reviewed at my expense and by an attorney of my choice regarding the terms and legal effect of this Agreement. I have read this Agreement and understand all
of its terms and conditions and am entering into this Agreement of my own free will without coercion from any source. I have not and am not relying on legal advice provided by the Company or any personnel of the Company. 

I agree the above recitals are material terms of this Agreement. 

In addition to other good and valuable consideration, I am expressly being given employment, continued employment, a relationship with the
Company, renewal of a relationship with the Company, a promotion, eligibility to receive grants and/or receipt of stock options or other equity awards, compensation, benefits, training and/or trade secrets and confidential information of the Company
and its or their customers, suppliers, vendors or affiliates to which I would not have access but for my relationship with the Company in exchange for my agreeing to the terms of this Agreement, including the
non-competition restriction in Section 5. In consideration of the foregoing, which I acknowledge and agree is fair and reasonable consideration for the promises I make in this Agreement, I agree as

follows: 
 (1)     An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret
law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or
investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. 

(2)     An individual who files a lawsuit against an employer for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of law
may disclose the trade secret to his or her attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual: (A) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (B) does not disclose the trade
secret, except pursuant to court order. 
 11.     Certification / Notice of Post-Employment Activities. I agree not to
disclose to the Company, or use in my work for the Company, any confidential information and/or trade secrets belonging to others, including without limitation, my prior employers, or any prior inventions made by me and which the Company is not
otherwise legally entitled to learn of or use. Furthermore, by executing this Agreement, I certify that I am not subject to any restrictive covenants and/or obligations that would prevent me from fully performing my duties for the Company. I also
agree that after my employment or relationship with the Company terminates, the Company may contact any employer or prospective employer of mine to inform them of my obligations under this Agreement and that, for a period of three (3) years
after my employment or relationship with the Company terminates, I shall affirmatively provide this Agreement to all subsequent employers. If I accept a position with another employer or prospective employer at any time within twelve
(12) months following termination of my employment with the Company, I will promptly give written notice to the Company and will provide the Company with the information it needs about my new position to determine whether such position would
likely lead to a violation of this Agreement. 
 12. Assignment of Developments. I hereby assign to the Company my entire right, title and
interest in any Developments which I may solely or jointly conceive, write or acquire in whole or in part during the period I am employed by or working for the Company, and for a period of six months thereafter, and which relate in any way to


  
 4 













 
the actual or anticipated business or research or development of the Company, or which are suggested by or result from any task assigned to me or work performed by me for or on behalf of the
Company, whether or not such Developments are made, conceived, written or acquired during normal hours of work or using the Company’s facilities, and whether or not such Developments are patentable, copyrightable or susceptible to other forms
of protection. This assignment does not apply to any Development for which no equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret or Confidential Information of the Company was used, and which was developed entirely on my own time unless (a) the
Development relates directly: (i) to the actual or anticipated business of the Company; or (ii) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development or (b) the Development results from any work performed by
me for the Company. I acknowledge and agree that any intellectual property right in any Developments and related documentation, and work of authorship, which are created within the scope of my relationship with the Company, are owned solely by the
Company. 
 13.     Disclosure of Developments. I will promptly disclose any Developments referred to in Section 12
to the management of the Company, including by following the Company’s policies and procedures in place from time to time for that purpose, and I will, on the Company’s request, promptly execute a specific assignment of title to the
Company and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Company for the purpose of vesting, confirming or securing the Company’s title to the Developments, and I will do anything else reasonably necessary, at the Company’s
sole expense, to enable the Company to secure a patent, trademark registration, copyright or other form of protection thereof in the United States and in other countries even after the termination of my employment or work relationship with the
Company. If the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure my signature or other action, whether because of my physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company as my duly
authorized agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on my behalf and stead to execute any such document and take any other such action to secure the Company’s
rights and title to the Developments. 
 14.     Prior Developments. I have identified below all Developments in which I
have any right, title or interest, and which were made, conceived or written wholly or in part by me prior to my employment or relationship with the Company and which relate to the actual or anticipated business or research or development of the
Company. I represent and warrant that I am not a party to any agreements which would limit my ability to work for the Company or to assign Developments as provided for in Section 12.

15.     Identification of Third Party Obligations. I acknowledge that the Company from time to time may have agreements with
other persons or with the United States government or agencies thereof, or other governments or governmental agencies, which impose obligations or restrictions on the Company regarding inventions made during the course of work under such agreements
or regarding the confidential nature of such work. I agree to be bound by all such obligations and restrictions that are made known to me and to take all action necessary to discharge the obligations of the Company under such agreements. 

16.     Injunctive Relief and Attorney’s Fees. In the event of a breach or a threatened breach of this Agreement by me,
I acknowledge and agree that the Company will face irreparable injury which would be difficult to calculate in monetary terms and for which damages would be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, I agree that the Company shall be entitled, in addition
to remedies otherwise available at law or in equity, to obtain and enforce immediately temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions, and final injunctions without the posting of a bond enjoining such breach or threatened breach. Should the
Company successfully enforce any portion of this Agreement before a trier of fact, the Company shall be entitled to receive and recover from me all of its reasonable attorney’s fees, litigation expenses and costs incurred as a result of
enforcing this Agreement against me. Additionally, if permitted by applicable law, any time periods for restrictions set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7 and 8 above will be extended by an amount of time equal to the duration of any time period during
which I am in violation of this Agreement.

 17.     Amendment, Waiver, Severability and Merger. If I executed other
written agreements relating to this subject matter with the Company or with Fortive Corporation or one of its affiliated entities, and/or if I later enter into other written agreements that contain provisions similar to the provisions contained in
this Agreement, all such provisions shall be interpreted to provide the Company with cumulative rights and remedies and the benefits and protections provided to the Company under each such agreement shall be given full force and effect. This
Agreement can be revoked or modified only by a written agreement signed by me and the Company. No waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Company shall be effective unless it is in writing and no waiver shall be construed to
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or as a modification of any provision of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable and if any provision of this Agreement is found by any court to be unenforceable, in whole or in part,
the remainder of this Agreement as well as the provisions of my prior agreement with the Company, if any, regarding the same subject matter as that which was found unenforceable herein shall nevertheless be enforceable and binding on the parties. I
also agree that the trier of fact may modify any invalid, overbroad or unenforceable term of this Agreement so that such term, as modified, is valid and enforceable under applicable law. Further, I acknowledge and agree that I have not, will not and
cannot rely on any representations not expressly made herein. The terms of this Agreement shall not be amended by me or the Company except by the express written consent of the Company and me. The section headings in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference and in no way define, limit or affect the meaning of this Agreement. 
 18.     At-Will Employment Status. I acknowledge and agree that that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or is intended to create a guarantee of employment, express or implied, for any specific period of
time. I acknowledge and agree that this Agreement does not require me to continue my employment or relationship with the Company for any particular length of time (unless otherwise agreed to in writing as an independent contractor or consultant) and
shall not be construed to require the Company to continue my employment, relationship or compensation for any particular length of time. I acknowledge and agree that if I am employed by the Company it is on an
at-will basis to the full extent permitted by applicable law, which means that the Company and I each have the right to terminate the employment relationship with or without cause or reason, with or without
notice or compliance with any procedures. I acknowledge and agree that my knowledge, skills and abilities are sufficient to enable me, if my employment or relationship with the Company terminates, to earn a satisfactory livelihood without violating
this Agreement. 
 19.     Acknowledgment of Obligations. I acknowledge that my obligations under this Agreement are in
addition to, and do not limit, any and all obligations concerning the same subject matter arising under any applicable law including, without limitation, common law duties of loyalty and common law and statutory law relating to trade secrets. 

20.     Obligations Survive Termination. I acknowledge and agree that the restrictions and covenants set forth in this
Agreement shall be binding upon me and survive termination of my employment or relationship with the Company regardless of the reason(s) for such termination. I acknowledge and agree that the Company has an important and legitimate business interest
that it is seeking to protect with this Agreement and that enforcement of this Agreement would not interfere with the interests of the public. 

21.     Cooperation. I agree to cooperate in the truthful and honest prosecution and/or defense of any third party claim in
which the Company may have an interest subject to reasonable limitations concerning time and place, which may include without limitation making myself available to participate in any proceeding involving the Company, allowing myself to be
interviewed by representatives of the Company, appearing for depositions and testimony without requiring a subpoena, and producing and/or providing any documents or names of other persons with relevant information; provided that, if such services
are required after the termination of my employment or relationship with the Company, it shall provide me reasonable compensation for the time actually expended in such endeavors and shall pay my reasonable expenses incurred at the prior and
specific request of the Company. 
 22.     Assignment and Transfer of Employment or Relationship. The rights and/or
obligations herein may only be assigned by the Company, may be done without my consent, and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns. If the Company makes any assignment of the rights and/or obligations herein
or transfers my employment or relationship within the Company, I agree that this Agreement shall remain binding upon me. Notwithstanding the language in this Section 22, in connection with and as a condition of any assignment or transfer of my
employment or relationship the Company, a successor, or assignee of the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and require me to sign a new Agreement Regarding Competition and the Protection of Proprietary Interests.

 23.     Change of Position. I acknowledge and agree that any change in my
position or title with the Company shall not cause this Agreement to terminate and shall not effect any change in my obligations under this Agreement. 

24.     Acceptance. I agree that this Agreement is accepted by me through my original or facsimile signature. I further
agree that the Company is deemed to have accepted this Agreement as evidenced by my employment or relationship with the Company, the payment of wages or monies to me, the provision of benefits to me, or by executing this Agreement.  

25.     Binding Effect. This Agreement, and the obligations hereunder, shall be binding upon me and my successors, heirs,
executors, and representatives and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and its assigns. 
 26.     Third
Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended to benefit each and every subsidiary, affiliate or business unit of the Company for which I perform services, for which I have customer contact, or about which I receive Confidential
Information and may be enforced by any such entity. I agree and intend to create a direct, consequential benefit to the Company regardless of the Company entity with which I am affiliated on the last day of my employment or relationship with the
Company. 
 27.     Governing Law. Where not superseded by federal law, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the state in which I resided at the time I executed this Agreement without applying its conflict of laws principles. 

28.     Exclusions for Attorneys. If I am an attorney licensed to practice law in any jurisdiction in which the Company
conducts business, I understand and agree that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a restriction on my ability to practice law or to otherwise impose any obligation on me that would violate the applicable rules of professional conduct of
any jurisdiction in which I am so licensed, including: (a) as an employee of a competing organization or (b) as an employee, partner, or shareholder of a law firm that represents clients that compete with the Company. I acknowledge that,
as a licensed attorney, I have obligations in addition to those set forth in this Agreement to, among other things, maintain strict confidentiality with respect to information encompassed by the attorney/client privilege or the work product doctrine
and that such obligations continue indefinitely after my employment with the Company ends. This Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with my obligations as a licensed attorney and applicable rules of professional conduct
relating to the practice of law, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to expand or contract my ethical and professional duties under those rules.
