required to prepare and file any Single Business Return pursuant to Section 2.01(d) or 2.03 (the “Single Business Return Preparing Party”) which reflects Taxes which are reimbursable by the other Party (the “Single
Business Return Reviewing Party”), in whole or in part, shall (x) unless 

  
 -12- 








 
otherwise required by Law or agreed to in writing by the Single Business Return Reviewing Party, prepare such Tax Return in a manner consistent with Past Practice to the extent such items affect
the Taxes for which the Single Business Return Reviewing Party is responsible pursuant to this Agreement, and (y) submit to the Single Business Return Reviewing Party a draft of any such Tax Return (or to the extent practicable the portion of
such Tax Return that relates to Taxes for which the Single Business Return Reviewing Party is responsible pursuant to this Agreement) along with a statement setting forth the calculation of the Tax shown due and payable on such Tax Return
reimbursable by the Single Business Return Reviewing Party under Section 2.01(d) or 2.03 at least thirty (30) days prior to the Due Date for such Tax Return provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the Single Business Return
Preparing Party from timely filing any such Single Business Return. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve all disputed issues. Any disputes that the Parties are unable to resolve shall be resolved by the Accounting Firm pursuant to
Section 8.01. In the event that any dispute is not resolved (whether pursuant to good faith negotiations among the Parties or by the Accounting Firm) prior to the Due Date for the filing of any Single Business Return, such Single Business
Return shall be timely filed by the Single Business Return Preparing Party and the Parties agree to amend such Single Business Return as necessary to reflect the resolution of such dispute in a manner consistent with such resolution. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article II, (i) the portion of any Tax Return that relates to any Taxes attributable
to a Danaher Disqualifying Action shall be prepared by Danaher in the manner determined by Danaher in its sole discretion (or, if such Tax Return is required to be prepared by Newco, be prepared by Newco in the manner determined by Danaher in its
sole discretion), and (ii) the portion of any Tax Return that relates to any Taxes attributable to a Newco Disqualifying Action shall be prepared by Newco in the manner determined by Newco in its sole discretion (or, if such Tax Return is
required to be prepared by Danaher, be prepared by Danaher in the manner determined by Newco in its sole discretion). For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall apply only to the extent that the Parties shall be aware of the Danaher
Disqualifying Action or the Newco Disqualifying Action at the time such Tax Return is prepared. 
 Section 2.05 Straddle Period Tax
Allocation. Danaher and Newco shall take all actions necessary or appropriate to close the taxable year of Newco and each Newco Entity for all Tax purposes as of the close of the Closing Date to the extent permissible or required under
applicable Law. If applicable Law does not require or permit Newco or a Newco Entity, as the case may be, to close its taxable year on the Closing Date, then the allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes or other amounts
attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on, or beginning after, the Closing Date shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of Newco or such Newco Entity as of the close of the Closing Date; provided that
exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis shall be allocated between such portions in proportion to the number of days in each such portion; provided, further, that real property and other
property or similar periodic Taxes shall be apportioned on a per diem basis. 
 Section 2.06 Timing of Payments. All Taxes
required to be paid or caused to be paid pursuant to this Article II by either Danaher or a Danaher Entity or Newco or a Newco Entity, as the case may be, to an applicable Taxing Authority or reimbursed by Danaher or Newco to the


  
 -13- 








 
other Party pursuant to this Agreement, shall, in the case of a payment to a Taxing Authority, be paid on or before the Due Date for the payment of such Taxes and, in the case of a reimbursement
to the other Party, be paid at least two (2) business days before the Due Date for the payment of such Taxes by the other Party. 

Section 2.07 Expenses. Except as provided in Section 8.01 in respect of the Accounting Firm, each Party shall bear its own
expenses incurred in connection with this Article II. 
 Section 2.08 Apportionment of Newco Taxes. For all purposes of this
Agreement, but subject to Section 4.03, Danaher shall determine in good faith which Tax Items are properly attributable to assets or activities of the Communications Business (and in the case of a Tax Item that is properly attributable to both
the Communications Business and the Danaher Business, the allocation of such Tax Item between the Communications Business and the Danaher Business). To the extent that Newco may in good faith disagree with any such apportionment, any disputes shall
be resolved by the Accounting Firm in accordance with Section 8.01. 
 ARTICLE III 

INDEMNIFICATION 

Section 3.01 Indemnification by Danaher. Danaher shall pay, and shall indemnify and hold Newco harmless from and against, without
duplication, (a) all Danaher Taxes, (b) all Taxes incurred by Newco or any Newco Entity by reason of the breach by Danaher of any of its representations, warranties or covenants hereunder, and (c) any costs and expenses related to the
foregoing (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses). 
 Section 3.02 Indemnification by Newco. Newco shall pay,
and shall indemnify and hold Danaher harmless from and against, without duplication, (a) all Newco Taxes, (b) all Taxes incurred by Danaher or any Danaher Entity by reason of the breach by Newco of any of its representations, warranties or
covenants hereunder, and (c) any costs and expenses related to the foregoing (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses). 

Section 3.03 Characterization of and Adjustments to Payments. 

(a) For all Tax purposes, Danaher and Newco agree to treat any payment required by this Agreement (other than payments with respect to
interest accruing after the Closing Date) as either a contribution by Danaher to Newco or a distribution by Newco to Danaher, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Closing Date. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment made pursuant to Article III of this Agreement shall be (i) decreased to take into account
the present value of any Tax Benefit made allowable to the Indemnified Party (or any of its affiliates) arising from the incurrence or payment of the relevant indemnified item (which Tax Benefit would not have arisen or been allowable but for such
indemnified item), and (ii) increased to take into account any Tax Cost of the Indemnified Party (or any of its affiliates) arising from the receipt of the relevant indemnity payment (but taking into account the present value of all correlative
Tax Benefits resulting from the payment of such Tax Cost). For purposes of this Section 3.03(b), any Tax Benefit or Tax 

  
 -14- 








 
Cost, as applicable, shall be determined (i) using the highest marginal rates in effect at the time of the determination, (ii) assuming the Indemnified Party will be liable for such
Taxes at such rate and has no Tax Attributes at the time of the determination, and (iii) assuming that any such Tax Benefit is used at the earliest date allowable by applicable Law. The present value referred to in the first sentence of this
Section 3.03(b) shall be determined using a discount rate equal to the mid term applicable federal rate in effect at the time of the payment of the relevant indemnity payment. 

Section 3.04 Timing of Indemnification Payments. Indemnification payments in respect of any liabilities for which an Indemnified
Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article III shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after written notification thereof by the Indemnified Party, including reasonably
satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for, and calculation of, the amount of such indemnification payment. 
 ARTICLE IV

 REFUNDS, CARRYBACKS, TIMING DIFFERENCE AND TAX ATTRIBUTES 

Section 4.01 Refunds and Credits. 

(a) Except as provided in Section 4.02, Danaher shall be entitled to all Refunds of Taxes for which Danaher is responsible pursuant to
Article III, and Newco shall be entitled to all Refunds of Taxes for which Newco is responsible pursuant to Article III. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that a particular Refund of Taxes may be allocable to a Straddle Period with
respect to which the Parties may share responsibility pursuant to Article III, the portion of such Refund to which each Party will be entitled shall be determined by comparing the amount of payments made by a Party to a Taxing Authority or to the
other Party (and reduced by the amount of payments received from the other Party) pursuant to Articles II and III hereof with the Tax liability of such Party as determined under Section 2.08, taking into account the facts as utilized for
purposes of claiming such Refund. A Party receiving a Refund to which the other Party is entitled pursuant to this Agreement shall pay the amount to which such other Party is entitled within ten (10) days after the receipt of the Refund. 

(b) In the event of an Adjustment relating to Taxes for which one Party is responsible pursuant to Article III which would have given rise to
a Refund but for an offset against the Taxes for which the other Party is or may be responsible pursuant to Article III (the “Benefited Party”), then the Benefited Party shall pay to the other Party, within ten (10) days
of the Final Determination of such Adjustment an amount equal to the amount of such reduction in the Taxes of the Benefited Party plus interest at the rate set forth in Section 6621(a)(1) on such amount for the period from the filing date
of the Tax Return that would have given rise to such Refund to the payment date. 
 (c) Notwithstanding Section 4.01(a), to the extent
that a Party applies or causes to be applied an overpayment of Taxes as a credit toward or a reduction in Taxes otherwise payable (or a Taxing Authority requires such application in lieu of a Refund) and such overpayment of Taxes, if received as a
Refund, would have been payable by such Party to the 

  
 -15- 








 
other Party pursuant to this Section 4.01, such Party shall pay such amount to the other Party no later than the Due Date of the Tax Return for which such overpayment is applied to reduce
Taxes otherwise payable. 
 (d) If Newco or any of its Subsidiaries receives a Refund attributable to Restructuring VAT, or otherwise
utilizes the benefits of a payment of Restructuring VAT (including by way of credit), Newco shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Danaher, within ten (10) days of the receipt of any such Refund or the filing of the Tax Return utilizing any such
benefit the amount of such Restructuring VAT to the extent of such Refund, credit or other benefit. For purposes of determining whether Newco or any of its Subsidiaries have received such a Refund, credit or otherwise utilized the benefits of a
payment of Restructuring VAT, any refund, credit or other benefit received by Newco or its Subsidiaries shall be considered to be attributable to Restructuring VAT prior to any refund, credit or other benefit being considered to be attributable to
other payments of VAT. Newco agrees to claim any refund, offset, credit or other allowance attributable to Restructuring VAT as soon as reasonably possible and to furnish to Danaher at Danaher’s request all information, records and assistance
reasonably necessary to verify the amount of any such refund, offset, credit or other allowance. 
 (e) To the extent that the amount of any
Refund under this Section 4.01 is later reduced by a Taxing Authority or in a Tax Proceeding, such reduction shall be allocated to the Party to which such Refund was allocated pursuant to this Section 4.01 and an appropriate adjusting
payment shall be made. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Danaher nor Newco shall be required to pay
or cause to be paid any Refund to the other Party pursuant to this Section 4.01 if the amount of such Refund is less than $50,000. 

Section 4.02 Carrybacks. 

(a) The carryback of any loss, credit or other Tax Attribute from any Post-Closing Period shall be in accordance with the provisions of the
Code and Treasury Regulations (and any applicable state, local or foreign Laws). 
 (b) Except to the extent otherwise consented to by
Danaher or prohibited by applicable Law, Newco shall elect to relinquish, waive or otherwise forgo the carryback of any loss, credit or other Tax Attribute from any Post-Closing Period to any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period (a
“Carryback”). In the event that Newco (or the appropriate member of the Newco Group) is prohibited by applicable Law to relinquish, waive or otherwise forgo a Carryback (or Danaher consents to a Carryback), Danaher shall cooperate
with Newco, at Newco’s expense, in seeking from the appropriate Taxing Authority such Refund as reasonably would result from such Carryback, to the extent that such Refund is directly attributable to such Carryback, and shall pay over to Newco
the amount of such Refund, net of any Taxes imposed on the receipt of such Refund, within ten (10) days after such Refund is received; provided, however, that Newco shall indemnify and hold the members of the Danaher Group
harmless from and against any and all collateral Tax consequences resulting from or caused by any such Carryback, including, without limitation, the loss or postponement of any benefit from the use of Tax Attributes generated by a member of the
Danaher Group if (i) such Tax Attributes expire 

  
 -16- 








 
unutilized, but would have been utilized but for such Carryback, or (ii) the use of such Tax Attributes is postponed to a later taxable period than the taxable period in which such Tax
Attributes would have been utilized but for such Carryback. 
 Section 4.03 Tax Attributes. 

(a) Danaher shall reasonably determine in good faith the allocation of Tax Attributes arising in a Pre-Closing Period to the Danaher Group and
the Newco Group in accordance with the Code and Treasury Regulations. Danaher shall be entitled to make any determination as to (A) basis, and (B) valuation, and shall make such determinations reasonably and in good faith and consistent
with Past Practice, where applicable. Danaher shall consult in good faith with NetScout regarding such allocation of Tax Attributes and determinations as to basis and valuation, and shall incorporate any reasonable comments received in writing from
NetScout regarding such allocation and determinations. Danaher and Newco hereby agree to compute all Taxes for Post-Closing Periods consistently with the determination of the allocation of Tax Attributes pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) unless
otherwise required by a Final Determination. 
 (b) To the extent that the amount of any Tax Attribute is later reduced or increased by a
Taxing Authority or Tax Proceeding, such reduction or increase shall be allocated to the Party to which such Tax Attribute was allocated pursuant to Section 4.03(a). 

Section 4.04 Treatment of Deductions Associated with Equity-Related Compensation. 

(a) Unless otherwise prohibited by applicable Law, from and after the Closing Date, solely Danaher or any member of the Danaher Group, as the
case may be, shall be entitled to claim any Tax deduction associated with the exercise in any taxable period of any Danaher stock options or stock appreciation rights by any Newco Employee. 

(b) “Newco Employee” means any person employed or formerly employed by any member of the Newco Group at the time of the
exercise, vesting, settlement disqualifying disposition or payment, as appropriate. 
 Section 4.05 Timing Differences. If
pursuant to a Final Determination any Tax Benefit is made allowable to a member of the Newco Group as a result of an Adjustment to any Taxes for which a member of the Danaher Group is responsible hereunder (or Tax Attribute of a member of the
Danaher Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen or been allowable but for such Adjustment, or if pursuant to a Final Determination any Tax Benefit is made allowable to a member of the Danaher Group as a result of an Adjustment to any Taxes
for which a member of the Newco Group is responsible hereunder (or Tax Attribute of a member of the Newco Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen or been allowable but for such Adjustment, Newco or Danaher, as the case may be, shall make a
payment to either Danaher or Newco, as appropriate, within thirty (30) days following such Final Determination, in an amount equal to the present value of such Tax Benefit (including any Tax Benefit made allowable as a result of the payment)
determined (i) using the highest marginal rates in effect at the time of the determination, (ii) assuming the Party to which such Tax Benefit is made allowable will be liable for Taxes at such rate and has no Tax Attributes at the time of
the determination, and (iii) 

  
 -17- 








 
assuming that the Tax Benefit is used at the earliest date allowable by applicable Law. The present value referred to in the preceding sentence shall be determined using a discount rate equal to
the mid term applicable federal rate in effect at the time of the Final Determination. 
 ARTICLE V 

TAX PROCEEDINGS 

Section 5.01 Notification of Tax Proceedings. Within ten (10) days after an Indemnified Party becomes aware of the
commencement of a Tax Proceeding that may give rise to Taxes for which an Indemnifying Party is responsible pursuant to Article III, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of such Tax Proceeding, and thereafter shall
promptly forward or make available to the Indemnifying Party copies of notices and communications relating to such Tax Proceeding. The failure of the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any such Tax Proceeding
within such ten (10) day period or promptly forward any further notices or communications shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement except to the extent that the

participate in all proceedings with respect to such Tax Proceeding (or to the extent practicable the portion of such Tax Proceeding that relates to Taxes for which the Reviewing Party is responsible pursuant to Article III) and shall not settle any
such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Reviewing Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 

(c) Tax Proceedings relating to Single Business Returns. Except as provided in Sections 5.02(a) and 5.03, the Indemnifying Party

Section 6.01 Representations and Warranties. 

(a) Newco. Newco hereby represents and warrants or covenants and agrees, as appropriate, that the facts presented and the
representations made in (i) the IRS Ruling, (ii) the Opinions, (iii) each submission to the IRS in connection with the IRS Ruling Request, (iv) the representation letter from Danaher addressed to Counsel supporting the Opinions,
(v) the representation letter from Newco addressed to Counsel supporting the Opinions and (vi) any other materials delivered or deliverable by Danaher or Newco in connection with the rendering by Counsel of the Opinions and the issuance by
the IRS of the IRS Ruling (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Tax Materials”), to the extent they both (A) are descriptive of the Newco Group (including the business purposes for each of the distributions described in the
IRS Ruling Request and the other Tax Materials to the extent that they relate to the Newco Group and the plans, proposals, intentions and policies of the Newco Group after the Effective Time), and (B) relate to the actions or non-actions of the
Newco Group to be taken (or not taken, as the case may be) after the Effective Time, are, or will be from the time presented or made through and including the Effective Time (and thereafter as relevant) true, correct and complete in all respects.

 (b) Danaher. Danaher hereby represents and warrants or covenants and agrees, as appropriate, that (i) it has delivered
complete and accurate copies of the Tax Materials to Newco and NetScout and (ii) the facts presented and the representations made therein, to the extent descriptive of (A) the Danaher Group at any time or (B) the Newco Group at any
time at or prior to the Effective Time (including, in each case, (x) the business purposes for each of the distributions described in the IRS Ruling Request and the other Tax Materials to the extent that they relate to the Danaher Group at any
time or the Newco Group at any time at or prior to the Effective Time, and (y) the plans, proposals, intentions and policies of the Danaher Group at any time or the Newco Group at any time at or prior to the Effective Time), are, or will be
from the time presented or made through and including the Effective Time (and thereafter as relevant) true, correct and complete in all respects. 

(c) No Contrary Knowledge. Each of Danaher and Newco represents and warrants that it knows of no fact (after due inquiry) that may
cause the Tax treatment of the Restructuring or the Distribution to be other than the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions. 
 (d) No
Contrary Plan. Each of Danaher and Newco represents and warrants that neither it, nor any of its Subsidiaries, has any plan or intent to take any action which is inconsistent with any statements or representations made in the Tax Materials. 

Section 6.02 Restrictions Relating to the Distribution. 

(a) General. Neither Danaher nor Newco shall, nor shall Danaher or Newco permit, any Danaher Entity or any Newco Entity, respectively,
to take or fail to take, as applicable, any action that constitutes a Disqualifying Action described in the definitions of Danaher Disqualifying Action and Newco Disqualifying Action, respectively. 

  
 -20- 








 (b) Restrictions. Prior to the first day following the second anniversary of the
Distribution (the “Restriction Period”), Newco: 
 (i) shall continue and cause to be continued the active
conduct of the Communications Business, in each case taking into account Section 355(b)(3) of the Code, in all cases as conducted immediately prior to the Distribution; 

(ii) shall not voluntarily dissolve or liquidate itself or any Newco Entity (including any action that is a liquidation for
federal income tax purposes); 
 (iii) shall not (1) enter into any Proposed Acquisition Transaction or, to the extent
Newco has the right to prohibit any Proposed Acquisition Transaction, permit any Proposed Acquisition Transaction to occur, (2) redeem or otherwise repurchase (directly or through a Subsidiary) any stock, or rights to acquire stock, other than
repurchases satisfying the requirements of Section 4.05(1)(b) of Revenue Procedure 96-30, 1996-1 C.B. 696 (as in effect prior to the release of Revenue Procedure 2003-48, 2003-2 C.B. 86), (3) amend its certificate of incorporation (or
other organizational documents), or take any other action, whether through a stockholder vote or otherwise, affecting the relative voting rights of its capital stock (including through the conversion of any capital stock into another class of
capital stock), (4) merge or consolidate with any other Person (other than pursuant to the Merger and the LLC Merger) or (5) take any other action or actions (including any action or transaction that would be reasonably likely to be
inconsistent with any representation made in the Tax Materials), in each case which in the aggregate (and taking into account the Merger, the LLC Merger and any other transactions described in this Section 6.02(b)(iii)) would, when combined
with any other direct or indirect changes in ownership of Newco capital stock pertinent for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code (including the Merger and the LLC Merger), have the effect of causing or permitting one or more Persons (whether
or not acting in concert) to acquire directly or indirectly stock representing a Fifty-Percent or Greater Interest in Newco or would reasonably be expected to result in a failure to preserve the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions; and 

(iv) shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Newco Group, to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of or agree to,
sell, transfer or otherwise dispose (including in any transaction treated for federal income tax purposes as a sale, transfer or disposition) of assets (including, any shares of capital stock of a Subsidiary) that, in the aggregate, constitute more
than 25% of the consolidated gross assets of Newco or the Newco Group. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (1) sales, transfers, or dispositions of assets in the Ordinary Course of Business, (2) any cash paid to acquire assets from
an unrelated Person in an arm’s-length transaction, (3) any assets transferred to a Person that is disregarded as an entity separate from the transferor for federal income tax purposes or (4) any mandatory or optional repayment (or
pre-payment) of any indebtedness of Newco or any member of the Newco Group. The percentages of gross assets or consolidated gross assets of Newco or the Newco Group, as the case may be, 

  
 -21- 








 
sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, shall be based on the fair market value of the gross assets of Newco and the members of the Newco Group as of the Closing Date. For purposes of this
Section 6.02(b)(iv), a merger of Newco or one of its Subsidiaries with and into any Person that is not a wholly owned Subsidiary of Newco or NetScout shall constitute a disposition of all of the assets of Newco or such Subsidiary. 

(c) Notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by Section 6.02(b), during the Restriction Period, Newco may proceed with any of the actions
or transactions described therein, if (i) Newco shall first have requested Danaher to obtain a supplemental ruling in accordance with Section 6.03(a) to the effect that such action or transaction will not affect the Tax-Free Status of the
Transactions and Danaher shall have received such a supplemental ruling in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, (ii) Newco shall have provided to Danaher an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Danaher, or (iii) Danaher shall have waived in writing the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. For the avoidance of doubt, the presence of a supplemental ruling, an Unqualified Tax Opinion or a waiver from Danaher shall not relieve
Newco from indemnification obligations otherwise present under Article III of this Agreement. In determining whether a ruling or opinion is satisfactory, Danaher may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions or
representations used as a basis for the ruling or opinion and the views on the substantive merits. 
 (d) Tax Reporting. Each of
Danaher and Newco covenants and agrees that it will not take, and will cause its respective Subsidiaries to refrain from taking, any position on any Income Tax Return that is inconsistent with the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions. 

(e) For the avoidance of the doubt, notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.02, (i) Newco shall be permitted to
enter into the Merger and the LLC Merger, (ii) Merger Sub II shall be permitted to liquidate or merge with and into NetScout, (iii) Newco may adopt or modify a shareholder rights plan (and issue stock in accordance therewith) that is
described in or similar to the shareholder rights plan described in Revenue Ruling 90-11, 1990-1 C.B. 10. 
 Section 6.03 Procedures
Regarding Opinions and Rulings. 
 (a) If Newco notifies Danaher that it desires to take one of the actions described in
Section 6.02(b) (a “Notified Action”), Danaher shall cooperate with Newco and use its reasonable best efforts to seek to obtain a supplemental ruling from the IRS or an Unqualified Tax Opinion for the purpose of permitting
Newco to take the Notified Action unless Danaher shall have waived the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. If such a ruling is to be sought, Danaher shall apply for such ruling and Danaher and Newco shall jointly control the process of
obtaining such ruling. In no event shall Danaher be required to file any ruling request under this Section 6.03(a) unless Newco represents that (i) it has read such ruling request, and (ii) all information and representations, if any,
relating to any member of the Newco Group, contained in such ruling request documents are (subject to any qualifications therein) true, correct and complete. Newco shall reimburse Danaher for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Danaher
Group in obtaining or seeking to obtain a ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion requested by Newco within ten (10) days after receiving an invoice from Danaher therefor. 

  
 -22- 








 (b) Danaher shall have the right to obtain a supplemental ruling or an Unqualified Tax Opinion at
any time in its sole and absolute discretion. If Danaher determines to obtain such ruling or opinion, Newco shall (and shall cause each Newco Entity to) cooperate with Danaher and take any and all actions reasonably requested by Danaher in
connection with obtaining such ruling or opinion (including by making any representation or reasonable covenant or providing any materials requested by the IRS or the law firm issuing such opinion); provided, that Newco shall not be required
to make (or cause a Newco Entity to make) any representation or covenant that is untrue or inconsistent with historical facts, or as to future matters or events over which it has no control. In connection with obtaining such ruling, Danaher shall
apply for such ruling and shall have sole and exclusive control over the process of obtaining such ruling. Danaher shall reimburse Newco for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Newco Group in cooperating with Danaher’s efforts to
obtain a supplemental ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion within ten (10) days after receiving an invoice from Newco therefor. 
 (c)
Except as provided in Sections 6.03(a) and (b), following the Effective Time, neither Newco nor any Newco Subsidiary shall seek any guidance from the IRS or any other Taxing Authority (whether written, verbal or otherwise) at any time
concerning the Restructuring or the Distribution (including the impact of any transaction on the Restructuring or Distribution). 

ARTICLE VII 

COOPERATION 

Section 7.01 General Cooperation. 

(a) The Parties shall each cooperate fully (and each shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to cooperate fully) with all reasonable requests
in writing (“Information Request”) from another Party hereto, or from an agent, representative or advisor to such Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns (including the preparation of Tax Packages),
claims for Refunds, Tax Proceedings, and calculations of amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, related or attributable to or arising in connection with Taxes of any of the Parties or their respective Subsidiaries
covered by this Agreement and the establishment of any reserve required in connection with any financial reporting (a “Tax Matter”). Such cooperation shall include the provision of any information reasonably necessary or helpful in
connection with a Tax Matter (“Information”) and shall include, without limitation, at each Party’s own cost: 

(i) the provision of any Tax Returns of the Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, books, records (including information
regarding ownership and Tax basis of property), documentation and other information relating to such Tax Returns, including accompanying schedules, related work papers, and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Taxing Authorities
(or, in the case of any Danaher Consolidated Return or Mixed Business Income Tax Return to the extent practicable, the portion of such Tax Return that relates to Taxes for which Newco is responsible pursuant to this Agreement); 

  
 -23- 








 (ii) the execution of any document (including any power of attorney) in
connection with any Tax Proceedings of any of the Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, or the filing of a Tax Return or a Refund claim of the Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries; 

(iii) the use of the Party’s reasonable best efforts to obtain any documentation in connection with a Tax Matter; and 

(iv) the use of the Party’s reasonable best efforts to obtain any Tax Returns (including accompanying schedules, related
work papers, and documents), documents, books, records or other information in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns of any of the Parties or their Subsidiaries (or, in the case of any Danaher Consolidated Return or Mixed Business Income Tax
Return to the extent practicable, the portion of such Tax Return, documents, books, records or other information that relates to Taxes for which Newco is responsible pursuant to this Agreement). 

Each Party shall make its employees, advisors, and facilities available, without charge, on a reasonable and mutually convenient basis in
connection with the foregoing matters. 
 Section 7.02 Retention of Records. Danaher and Newco shall retain or cause to be
retained all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, and all material records or other documents relating thereto in their possession, in each case that relate to a Pre-Closing Period, until seven years following the Closing Date (the
“Retention Date”). After the Retention Date, a Party intending to destroy any material records or documents shall provide the other Party with ninety (90) days’ prior written notice and the opportunity to copy or take
possession of such records and documents. If, prior to the Retention Date, a Party reasonably determines that any records or documents that it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this Section 7.02 are no longer material in
the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and the other Party agrees, then such first Party may dispose of such records or documents upon ninety (90) days’ prior notice to the other Party. Any notice of an
intent to dispose given pursuant to this Section 7.02 shall include a list of the records or documents to be disposed of describing in reasonable detail each file, book, or other record being disposed. The notified Party shall have the
opportunity, at its cost and expense, to copy take possession of such records and documents. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 8.01 Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute between the Parties as to any matter covered by this Agreement, the
parties shall appoint a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve such dispute. In this regard, the Accounting Firm shall make determinations with respect to the disputed items based
solely on representations made by Danaher and Newco and their respective representatives, and 

  
 -24- 








 
not by independent review, and shall function only as an expert and not as an arbitrator and shall be required to make a determination in favor of one Party only. The Parties shall require the
Accounting Firm to resolve all disputes no later than thirty (30) days after the submission of such dispute to the Accounting Firm, but in no event later than the Due Date for the payment of Taxes or the filing of the applicable Tax Return, if
applicable, and agree that all decisions by the Accounting Firm with respect thereto shall be final and conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Accounting Firm shall resolve all disputes in a manner consistent with this Agreement and, to the
extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, in a manner consistent with the Past Practices of Danaher and its Subsidiaries, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. The Parties shall require the Accounting Firm to render all determinations
in writing and to set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such determination. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by the Parties. 

Section 8.02 Interest on Late Payments. With respect to any payment between the Parties pursuant to this Agreement not made by the
due date set forth in this Agreement for such payment, the outstanding amount will accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate in effect for underpayments under Section 6621 of the Code from such due date to and including the payment
date. 
 Section 8.03 Survival of Covenants. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, all covenants and agreements of
the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their applicable terms. 

Section 8.04 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of any successor by merger, acquisition of
assets, or otherwise, to any of the parties hereto (including without limitation any successor of Danaher or Newco succeeding to the Tax Attributes of either under Section 381 of the Code), to the same extent as if such successor had been an
original party to this Agreement. As of the Effective Time, this Agreement shall be binding on NetScout and NetScout shall be subject to the obligations and restrictions imposed on Newco hereunder, including, without limitation, with respect to the
restrictions imposed on Newco under Section 6.02, and for the avoidance of doubt any restrictions applicable to Newco shall apply to NetScout mutatis mutandis. 

Section 8.05 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced
under any Law or as a matter of public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced,
the Parties to this Agreement shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner. 

Section 8.06 Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between or on behalf of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement. 

  
 -25- 








 Section 8.07 Assignment; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not be
assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto, except that each Party may assign (a) any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of its Subsidiaries and (b) any or all of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with a sale or disposition of any of its assets or entities or lines of business; provided, however, that, in each case, no such assignment shall release such Party from any
liability or obligation under this Agreement. Except as provided in Article III with respect to indemnified Parties, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties to this Agreement and their respective Subsidiaries and their permitted
successors and assigns and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. 

Section 8.08 Specific Performance. In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions
and provisions of this Agreement, the Party who is or is to be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and
remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The Parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, may be inadequate compensation for any loss and that any
defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by the Parties to this Agreement. 

Section 8.09 Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified except by a written instrument signed by the
Parties to this Agreement. No waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party so waiving. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this
Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other subsequent breach. 
 Section 8.10 Rules of Construction.
Interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the following rules of construction: (a) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the

are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement; (j) Danaher and Newco have each participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and if an ambiguity or question of
interpretation should arise, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening either Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions in
this Agreement or any interim drafts of this Agreement; and (k) a reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns.

 Section 8.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts
each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or portable document
format (PDF) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of any such Agreement. 
 Section 8.12
Coordination with the Employee Matters Agreement. To the extent any covenants or agreements between the Parties with respect to employee withholding Taxes are set forth in the Employee Matters Agreement, such Taxes shall be governed
exclusively by the Employee Matters Agreement and not by this Agreement. 
 Section 8.13 Confidentiality. The parties hereby
agree that the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to all information and material furnished by any party or its representatives hereunder (including any Information and any Tax Returns). 

Section 8.14 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whether or not the Distribution or the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs or expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, all
liabilities, costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement by or on behalf of Newco or any member of the Newco Group prior to the Effective Time shall be the responsibility of Danaher and shall be assumed in full by Danaher. 

Section 8.15 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. 

Section 8.16 Notices. Any notice, demand, claim or other communication under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed
to have been given (a) on delivery if delivered personally; (b) on the date on which delivery thereof is guaranteed by the carrier if delivered by a national courier guaranteeing delivery within a fixed number of days of sending; or
