        <footnote id="F1">Represents the Company's annual contribution to the Danaher stock fund in the reporting person's account under one or more of the plans that form part of Danaher's deferred compensation program. The Company contributions are deemed to be invested in a number of unfunded, notional shares of Danaher common stock. The price shown in Table II, Column 8 is the closing price per share of Danaher common stock as reported on the NYSE on the date used to determine the number of notional shares to be credited to the participant's account.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The notional shares convert on a one-for-one basis.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">The vesting terms and manner and form of distribution of amounts contributed or deferred under the program are based upon the provisions of the respective plan, which provisions are summarized in the latest Danaher Corporation annual meeting proxy statement on Schedule 14A as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.</footnote>
