If Danaher determines, in its good faith discretion, that: (i) one Party is responsible for a Tax pursuant to this Agreement or under applicable Law and (ii) the other Party is entitled to a deduction, credit or other Tax benefit relating to such Tax, then the Party entitled to such deduction, credit or other Tax benefit shall pay to the Party responsible for such Tax the amount of the Tax benefit arising from such deduction, credit or other Tax benefit, as determined by Danaher in its discretion.
2.12    Prior Agreements. Except as set forth in this Agreement and in consideration of the mutual indemnities and other obligations of this Agreement, any and all prior Tax sharing or allocation agreements or practices between any member of the Danaher Group and any member of the Envista Group shall be terminated with respect to the Envista Group and the Danaher Group as of the Effective Date.  No member of either the Envista Group or the Danaher Group shall have any continuing rights or obligations under any such agreement. 
ARTICLE III
PREPARATION AND FILING OF TAX RETURNS
3.1    Danaher’s Responsibility.  Danaher shall prepare and file when due (taking into account any applicable extensions), or shall cause to be prepared and filed, all Joint Returns and all Danaher Separate Returns, including any amended Joint Returns or amended Danaher Separate Returns.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Joint Return with respect to Foreign Taxes, to the extent that any expenses related to a previously filed Joint Return for similar Foreign Taxes were customarily paid by a member of the Envista Group, as determined by Danaher in its discretion, then any similar expenses shall be borne by Envista, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any expenses related to the preparation of transfer pricing documentation.
3.2    Envista’s Responsibility.  Envista shall prepare and file when due (taking into account any applicable extensions), or shall cause to be prepared and filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to members of the Envista Group other than those Tax Returns which Danaher is required to prepare and file under Section 3.1 including any amended Tax Returns. The Tax Returns required to be prepared and filed by Envista under this Section 3.2 shall include any Envista Separate Returns and any amended Envista Separate Returns. 
3.3    Right To Review Tax Returns.  To the extent that the positions taken on any Tax Return would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the Tax position of the Party other than the Party that is required to prepare and file any such Tax Return pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 (the “Reviewing Party”), the Party required to prepare and file such Tax Return (the “Preparing Party”) shall prepare the portions of such Tax Return that relates to the business of the Reviewing Party (the Danaher Retained Business or the Envista Business, as the case may be), shall provide a draft of such portion of such Tax Return to the Reviewing Party for its review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the Due Date for such Tax Return, and shall modify such portion of such Tax Return before filing to include the Reviewing Party’s reasonable comments, provided, however, with respect to any Tax Return required to be filed before the Distribution Date with respect to which Danaher is the Preparing Party, Danaher shall consider Envista’s comments in good faith but shall not be required to accept such comments. 
3.4    Cooperation.  The Parties shall provide, and shall cause their Affiliates to provide, assistance and cooperation to one another in accordance with Article VII with respect to the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, including providing information required to be provided in Article VIII.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Danaher shall not be required to disclose to 

9

Envista any consolidated, combined, unitary, or other similar Joint Return of which a member of the Danaher Group is the common parent or any information related to such a Joint Return other than information relating solely to the Envista Group; provided, that Danaher shall provide such additional information that is reasonably required in order for Envista to determine the Taxes attributable to the Envista Business.  If an amended Separate Return for States Taxes for which Envista is responsible under this Article II is required to be filed as a result of an amendment made to a Joint Return for Federal Income Tax pursuant to an audit adjustment, then the Parties shall cooperate to ensure that such amended Separate Return can be prepared and filed in a manner that preserves confidential information including through the use of third party preparers. 
3.5    Tax Reporting Practices.  Except as provided in Section 3.6, with respect to any Tax Return for any taxable period that begins on or before the second anniversary of the Distribution Date with respect to which Envista is the Responsible Party, such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner (i) consistent with past practices, accounting methods, elections and conventions (“Past Practices”) used with respect to the Tax Returns in question (unless there is no Reasonable Basis for the use of such Past Practices), and to the extent any items are not covered by Past Practices (or in the event that there is no Reasonable Basis for the use of such Past Practices), in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by Envista; and (ii) that, to the extent consistent with clause (i), minimizes the overall amount of Taxes due and payable on such Tax Return for all of the Parties by cooperating in making such elections or applications for group or other relief or allowances available in the taxing jurisdiction in which such Tax Return is filed. Envista shall not take any action inconsistent with the assumptions (including items of income, gain, deduction, loss and credit) made in determining all estimated or advance payments of Taxes on or prior to the Distribution Date.  In addition, Envista shall not be permitted, and shall not permit any member of the Envista Group, to make a change in any of its methods of accounting for tax purposes until all applicable statutes of limitations for all taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before the Distribution Date have expired without Danaher’s prior written consent.
3.6    Reporting of Reorganization.  The Tax treatment of any step in or portion of the Reorganization and the Distribution shall be reported on each applicable Tax Return consistently with the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions, taking into account the jurisdiction in which such Tax Returns are filed, unless there is no Reasonable Basis for such Tax treatment.  In the event that a Party shall determine that there is no Reasonable Basis for such Tax treatment, such Party shall notify the other Party no later than twenty (20) Business Days prior to filing the relevant Tax Return and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree on the manner in which the relevant portion of the Reorganization and the Distribution shall be reported. If Danaher determines, in its sole discretion, that a protective election under Section 336(e) of the Code shall be made with respect to the Distribution, Envista agrees to take any such action that is necessary to effect such election, including any corresponding election with respect to any of its Subsidiaries, as determined by Danaher. If such a protective election is made, this Agreement shall be amended in such a manner as is determined by Danaher in its good faith discretion to compensate Danaher for any tax benefits realized by Envista as a result of such election.
3.7    Payment of Taxes.
(a)With respect to any Tax Return required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement, the Responsible Party shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable Taxing Authority in a timely manner any Taxes due in respect of any such Tax Return. 
(b)In the case of any Tax Return for which the Party that is not the Responsible Party is obligated pursuant to this Agreement to pay all or a portion of the Taxes reported as due on such Tax Return, the Responsible Party shall notify the other Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such Taxes and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such other Party and the Party receiving such notice shall pay such amount to the Responsible Party upon the later of five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is due and fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of such notice.

10

(c)With respect to any estimated Taxes, the Party that is or will be the Responsible Party with respect to any Tax Return that will reflect (or otherwise give credit for) such estimated Taxes shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable Taxing Authority in a timely manner any estimated Taxes due.  In the case of any estimated Taxes for which the Party that is not the Responsible Party is obligated pursuant to this Agreement to pay all or a portion of the Taxes that will be reported as due on any Tax Return that will reflect (or otherwise give credit for) such estimated Taxes, the Responsible Party shall notify the other Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such estimated Taxes and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such other Party and the Party receiving such notice shall pay such amount to the Responsible Party upon the later of five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is due and fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of such notice.
3.8    Amended Returns and Carrybacks.  
(a)Envista shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Envista Group to, file or allow to be filed any request for an Adjustment for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Distribution Date (including for the avoidance of doubt, the portion of any Straddle Period ending at the end of the day on the Distribution Date) without the prior written consent of Danaher, such consent to be exercised in Danaher’s sole discretion.
(b)Envista shall, and shall cause each member of the Envista Group to, make any available elections to waive the right to carry back any Tax Attribute (i) from a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Effective Date to a Joint Return in respect of a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Effective Date and (ii) from a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Distribution Date to a Joint Return in respect of a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Distribution Date.
(c)Envista shall not, and shall cause each member of the Envista Group not to, without the prior written consent of Danaher, make any affirmative election to carry back any Tax Attribute (i) from a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Effective Date to a Joint Return in respect of a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Effective Date or (ii) from a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Distribution Date to a Joint Return in respect of a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Distribution Date, in each case, such consent to be exercised in Danaher’s sole discretion.
(d)Receipt of consent by Envista or a member of the Envista Group from Danaher pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.8 shall not limit or modify Envista’s continuing indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V.
3.9    Tax Attributes.  Danaher shall in good faith advise Envista in writing of the amount, if any of any Tax Attributes, which Danaher determines, in its good faith discretion, shall be allocated or apportioned to the Envista Group under applicable Law. Envista and all members of the Envista Group shall prepare all Tax Returns in accordance with such written notice. Envista agrees that it shall not dispute Danaher’s allocation or apportionment of Tax Attributes. For the avoidance of doubt, Danaher  shall not be required to create or cause to be created any books and records or reports or other documents based thereon (including, without limitation, “earnings & profits studies,” “basis studies” or similar determinations) that it does not maintain or prepare in the ordinary course of business in order to comply with this Section 3.9.
ARTICLE IV
TAX-FREE STATUS OF THE DISTRIBUTION
4.1    Representations and Warranties.
(a)Danaher, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Danaher Group, hereby represents and warrants that (i) it has examined the IRS Ruling, the IRS Ruling Request and any other 

11

materials delivered or deliverable in connection with the issuance of the IRS Ruling and the Tax Certificates (collectively, the “Tax Materials”) and (ii) the facts presented and representations that have been or will be made therein, to the extent descriptive of or otherwise relating to Danaher or any member of the Danaher Group or the Danaher Retained Business, were or will be, at the time presented or represented and from such time until and including the Distribution Date, true, correct, and complete in all material respects. Danaher, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Danaher Group, hereby confirms and agrees to comply with any and all covenants and agreements in the Tax Materials applicable to Danaher or any member of the Danaher Group or the Danaher Retained Business.
(b)Envista, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Envista Group, hereby represents and warrants that (i) it has examined the Tax Materials and (ii) the facts presented and representations that have been or will be made therein, to the extent descriptive of or otherwise relating to Envista or any member of the Envista Group or the Envista Business, were or will be, at the time presented or represented and from such time until and including the Distribution Date, true, correct, and complete in all material respects. Envista, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Envista Group, hereby confirms and agrees to comply with any and all covenants and agreements in the Tax Materials applicable to Envista or any member of the Envista Group or the Envista Business.  
(c)Each of Danaher, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Danaher Group, and Envista, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Envista Group represents and warrants that it knows of no fact (after due inquiry) that may cause the Tax treatment of the Reorganization or the Distribution to be other than the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions. 
(d)Each of Danaher, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Danaher Group, and Envista, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Envista Group represents and warrants that it has no plan or intent to take any action which is inconsistent with any statements or representations made in the Tax Materials.
4.2    Restrictions Relating to the Distribution . 
(a)Envista, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Envista Group, hereby covenants and agrees that no member of the Envista Group will take, fail to take, or permit to be taken: (i) any action where such action or failure to act would be inconsistent with or cause to be untrue any statement, information, covenant or representation in the Tax Materials  or (ii) any action which constitutes an Envista Disqualifying Action.
(b)During the Restricted Period, Envista:
(i)shall continue and cause to be continued the active conduct of the Envista Business for purposes of Section 355(b)(2) of the Code, taking into account Section 355(b)(3) of the Code, as conducted immediately prior to the Distribution,
(ii)shall not voluntarily dissolve or liquidate itself or any of its Affiliates (including any action that is a liquidation for U.S. federal income tax purposes),  
(iii)shall not (1) enter into any Proposed Acquisition Transaction or, to the extent Envista has the right to prohibit any Proposed Acquisition Transaction, permit any Proposed Acquisition Transaction to occur, (2) redeem or otherwise repurchase (directly or through an Affiliate) any stock, or rights to acquire stock except to the extent such repurchases satisfy Section 4.05(1)(b) of Revenue Procedure 96-30 (as in effect prior to the amendment of such Revenue Procedure by Revenue Procedure 2003-48), (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 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 

12

Tax Certificates) which in the aggregate would, when combined with any other direct or indirect changes in ownership of Envista capital stock pertinent for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code, 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 Envista 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 Envista 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 20% of the consolidated gross assets of Envista or the Envista 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 Envista or any member of the Envista Group.  The percentages of gross assets or consolidated gross assets of Envista or the Envista Group, as the case may be, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, shall be based on the fair market value of the gross assets of Envista and the members of the Envista Group as of the Distribution Date.  For purposes of this Section 4.2(b)(iv), a merger of Envista or one of its Subsidiaries with and into any Person that is not a wholly owned Subsidiary of Envista shall constitute a disposition of all of the assets of Envista or such Subsidiary.
(c)Notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by Section 4.2(a) and (b), Envista or a member of the Envista Group may take any of the actions or transactions described therein if Envista either (i) obtains an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Danaher or (ii) obtains the prior written consent of Danaher waiving the requirement that Envista obtain an Unqualified Tax Opinion, such waiver to be provided in Danaher’s sole and absolute discretion.  Danaher’s evaluation of an Unqualified Tax Opinion may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions, representations, and covenants made in connection with such opinion.  Envista shall bear all costs and expenses of securing any such Unqualified Tax Opinion and shall reimburse Danaher for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that Danaher or any of its Affiliates may incur in good faith in seeking to obtain or evaluate any such Unqualified Tax Opinion.  Neither the delivery of an Unqualified Tax Opinion nor Danaher’s waiver of Envista’s obligation to deliver an Unqualified Tax Opinion shall limit or modify Envista’s continuing indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V.
ARTICLE V
INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS
5.1    Indemnity Obligations.  
(a)Danaher shall indemnify and hold harmless Envista from and against, and will reimburse Envista for, (i) all liability for Taxes allocated to Danaher pursuant to Article II, and (ii) all Taxes and Tax-Related Losses arising out of, based upon, or relating or attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in, or failure to perform, as applicable, any representation, covenant, or obligation of any member of the Danaher Group pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) the amount of any Refund received by any member of the Danaher Group that is allocated to Envista pursuant to Section 2.10(a).
(b)Without regard to whether an Unqualified Tax Opinion may have been provided or whether any action is permitted or consented to hereunder and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, Envista shall indemnify and hold harmless Danaher from and against, and will reimburse Danaher for, (i) all liability for Taxes allocated to Envista pursuant to Article II, (ii) all Taxes 

13

and Tax-Related Losses arising out of, based upon, or relating or attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in, or failure to perform, as applicable, any representation, covenant, or obligation of any member of the Envista Group pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) the amount of any Refund received by any member of the Envista Group that is allocated to Danaher pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and (iv) any Distribution Taxes and Tax-Related Losses attributable to an Envista Disqualifying Action (regardless of whether the conditions set forth in Section 4.2(c) are satisfied). 
(c)To the extent that any Tax or Tax-Related Loss is subject to indemnity pursuant to both Sections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b), responsibility for such Tax or Tax-Related Loss shall be shared by Danaher and Envista according to relative fault.
5.2    Indemnification Payments.  
(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if either Party (the “Indemnitee”) is required to pay to a Taxing Authority a Tax or to another Person a payment in respect of a Tax that the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) is liable for under this Agreement, including as the result of a Final Determination, the Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnifying Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such Tax and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee, including any Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto.  The Indemnifying Party shall pay such amount, including any Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto, to the Indemnitee no later than the later of (i) five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is due to the applicable Taxing Authority or (ii) fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of notice from the other Party.  
(b)If, as a result of any change or redetermination made with respect to Sections 2.2 or 2.7, any amount previously allocated to and borne by one Party pursuant to the provisions of Article II is thereafter allocated to the other Party, then, no later than five (5) Business Days after such change or redetermination, such other Party shall pay to such Party the amount previously borne by such Party which is allocated to such other Party as a result of such change or redetermination.
5.3    Payment Mechanics.  
(a)All payments under this Agreement shall be made by Danaher directly to Envista and by Envista directly to Danaher; provided, however, that if the Parties mutually agree with respect to any such indemnification payment, any member of the Danaher Group, on the one hand, may make such indemnification payment to any member of the Envista Group, on the other hand, and vice versa.  All indemnification payments shall be treated in the manner described in Article 5.4.
(b)In the case of any payment of Taxes made by a Responsible Party or Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement for which such Responsible Party or Indemnitee, as the case may be, has received a payment from the other Party, such Responsible Party or Indemnitee shall provide to the other Party a copy of any official government receipt received with respect to the payment of such Taxes to the applicable Taxing Authority (or, if no such official governmental receipts are available, executed bank payment forms or other reasonable evidence of payment).
5.4    Treatment of Payments.  The Parties agree that any payment made among the Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated, to the extent permitted by Law, for all United States federal income Tax purposes as either (i) a non-taxable contribution by Danaher to Envista, or (ii) a distribution by Envista to Danaher, and, with respect to any payment made among the Parties pursuant to this Agreement after the Distribution, such payment shall be treated as having been made immediately prior to the Distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Danaher shall notify Envista if it reasonably determines that any payment made pursuant to this Agreement is to be treated, for any Tax purposes, as a payment made by one Party acting as an agent of one of such Party’s Subsidiaries to the other Party acting as an agent of one of such other Party’s Subsidiaries, and the Parties agree to treat any such payment accordingly.  

14

ARTICLE VI
TAX CONTESTS 
6.1    Notice.  Each Party shall notify the other Party in writing within ten (10) days after receipt by such Party or any member of its Group of a written communication from any Taxing Authority with respect to any pending or threatened audit, claim, dispute, suit, action, proposed assessment or other proceeding (a “Tax Contest”) concerning any Taxes for which the other Party may be liable pursuant to this Agreement, and thereafter shall promptly forward or make available to such Party copies of notices and communications relating to such Tax Contest.
6.2    Separate Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return, the Party having the liability for the Tax pursuant to Section 2 hereof shall have the sole responsibility and right to control the prosecution of such Tax Contest, including the exclusive right to communicate with agents of the applicable Taxing Authority and to control, resolve, settle, or agree to any deficiency, claim, or adjustment proposed, asserted, or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest.
6.3    Joint Return. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Joint Return, Danaher shall have the sole responsibility and right to control the prosecution of such Tax Contest, including the exclusive right to communicate with agents of the applicable Taxing Authority and to control, resolve, settle, or agree to any deficiency, claim, or adjustment proposed, asserted, or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a portion of any such Tax Contest with respect to a Joint Return with respect to Foreign Taxes relates to a matter which was customarily controlled by a member of the Envista Group, as determined by Danaher in its sole discretion, then Danaher may elect that Envista shall be responsible for conduct of such portion of such Tax Contest and any expenses related thereto, including expenses relating to supporting transfer pricing analysis.
6.4    Obligation of Continued Notice.  During the pendency of any Tax Contest or threatened Tax Contest, each of the Parties shall provide prompt notice to the other Party of any written communication received by it or a member of its respective Group from a Taxing Authority regarding any Tax Contest for which it is indemnified by the other Party hereunder or for which it may be required to indemnify the other Party hereunder.  Such notice shall attach copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Taxing Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such matters.  Such notice shall be provided in a reasonably timely fashion; provided, however, that in the event that timely notice is not provided, a Party shall be relieved of its obligation to indemnify the other Party only to the extent that such delay results in actual increased costs or actual prejudice to such other Party.
6.5    Settlement Rights.  Unless waived by the Parties in writing, in connection with any potential adjustment in a Tax Contest as a result of which adjustment the Non-Controlling Party may reasonably be expected to become liable to make any indemnification payment to the Controlling Party under this Agreement: (i) the Controlling Party shall keep the Non-Controlling Party informed in a timely manner of all actions taken or proposed to be taken by the Controlling Party with respect to such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest; (ii) the Controlling Party shall timely provide the Non-Controlling Party with copies of any correspondence or filings submitted to any Tax Authority or judicial authority in connection with such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest; and (iii) the Controlling Party shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith. The failure of the Controlling Party to take any action specified in the preceding sentence with respect to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve the Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party.

15

Each Party shall make its employees and facilities available, without charge, on a mutually convenient basis to facilitate such cooperation.
7.2    Consistent Treatment.  Unless and until there has been a Final Determination to the contrary, each Party agrees not to take any position on any Tax Return, in connection with any Tax Contest or otherwise that is inconsistent with (a) the treatment of payments between the Danaher Group and the Envista Group as set forth in Section 5.4, or (b) the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions.
ARTICLE VIII
RETENTION OF RECORDS; ACCESS 
8.1    Retention of Records.  For so long as the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (i) sixty (60) days after the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitation (including any waivers or extensions thereof) and (ii) seven years after the Distribution Date, the Parties shall retain records, documents, accounting data and other information (including computer data) necessary for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns (collectively, “Tax Records”) in respect of Taxes of any member of either the Danaher Group or the Envista Group for any Pre-IPO Period, Straddle Period, or Post-IPO Period or for any Tax Contests relating to such Tax Returns.

ARTICLE IX
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
9.1    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 Envista and their respective representatives, and 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.

All Liabilities assumed or retained by a member of the Envista Group under this Agreement shall be Envista Liabilities for purposes of the Separation Agreement.

Envista Employee and the contract of services of any Envista Independent Contractor to be transferred to a member of the Envista Group and (ii) cause the employment of any Danaher Employee who is employed by a member of the Envista Group and the contract of services between any independent contractor or consultant that does not qualify as an Envista Independent Contractor and a member of the Envista Group to be transferred to a member of the Danaher Group.
(b)    Danaher shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each Automatic Transfer Employee to be employed by a member of the Envista Group no later than the Effective Time in accordance with applicable Law, or as of the applicable Delayed Transfer Date, if applicable, and Envista agrees to take all actions reasonably necessary to cause the Envista Employees to be so employed. If an Automatic Transfer Employee objects to the transfer of employment to a member of the Envista Group as permitted under applicable law and consequently does not become an employee of the Envista Group and is terminated by Danaher as a result, then Envista shall reimburse Danaher in accordance with Section 2.3(c) for any severance or termination costs incurred by Danaher in connection with such termination of employment.  Envista shall make a qualifying offer of employment in accordance with Section 2.4 to each Non-Automatic Transfer Employee prior to the Effective Time to become employed by a member of the Envista Group effective as of no later than the Effective Time, or as of the applicable Delayed Transfer Date, if applicable; provided that if Envista fails to make such a qualifying offer of employment to a Non-Automatic Transfer Employee and such Non-Automatic Transfer does not become employed by Envista and is terminated by Danaher as a result, then Envista shall reimburse Danaher in accordance with Section 2.3(c) for any severance or termination costs incurred by Danaher in connection with such termination of employment.
(c)    The Danaher Group and Envista Group agree to execute, and to seek to have the applicable Envista Employees execute, such documentation, if any, as may be necessary to reflect the transfer of employment described in this Section 2.2.

(a)    To the extent any Envista Employee is, as of the Plan Transition Date, receiving payments as part of any short-term disability program that is part of a Danaher Welfare Plan, such Envista Employee’s rights to continued short-term disability benefits (a) will end under any Danaher Welfare Plan as of the Plan Transition Date; and (b) all remaining rights will be recognized under an Envista Welfare Plan as of the Plan Transition Date, and the remainder (if any) of such Envista Employee’s short-term disability benefits will be paid by an Envista Welfare Plan.  In the event that any Envista Employee described above shall have any dispute with the short-term disability benefits they are receiving under an Envista Welfare Plan, any and all appeal rights of such employees shall be realized through the Envista Welfare Plan (and any appeal rights such Envista Employee may have under any Danaher Welfare Plan will be limited to benefits received and time periods occurring prior to the Plan Transition Date).
(b)    For any Former Envista Service Provider who is, as of the Effective Time, receiving payments as part of any long-term disability program that is part of a Danaher Welfare Plan, and has been receiving payments from such plan for twelve (12) months or fewer before the Effective Time, to the extent such Former Envista Service may have any “return to work” rights under the terms of such Danaher Welfare Plan, such Former Envista Service Provider’s eligibility for re-employment shall be with Envista or a member of the Envista Group, subject to availability of a suitable position (with such availability to be determined in the sole discretion by Envista or the applicable member of the Envista Group), provided however that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Former Envista Service Provider described in this subsection will be eligible for re-employment as described in this subsection after the first anniversary of the Effective Time.
Section 5.10    Certain Requirements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Transfer Regulations, the terms of a Collective Bargaining Agreement or applicable Law require that any assets or Liabilities be retained by the Danaher Group or transferred to or assumed by the Envista Group in a manner that is different from that set forth in this Agreement, such retention, transfer or assumption shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Collective Bargaining Agreement or applicable Law and shall not be made as otherwise set forth in this Agreement.

Section 6.8    Employee Benefits Administration. At all times following the date hereof, the Parties will cooperate in good faith as necessary to facilitate the administration of employee benefits and the resolution of related employee benefit claims with respect to Envista Employees, Former Envista Service Providers and employees and other service providers of Danaher, as applicable, including with respect to the provision of employee level information necessary for the other Party to manage, administer, finance and file required reports with respect to such administration.
