        <footnote id="F1">Under the terms of the Fortive 2016 Stock Incentive Plan, on the last trading day on which an outstanding option may be exercised, if as of the close of trading on such day the then closing market price of a share of common stock of the Issuer exceeds the per share exercise price of such option by at least $.01 (an &quot;Eligible Option&quot;), the holder of such option will be deemed to have automatically exercised (&quot;Auto Exercise&quot;) such Eligible Option as of the expiration date of the Eligible Option, with the Issuer withholding the number of shares of common stock issued upon Auto Exercise in an amount necessary to satisfy (1) the exercise price obligation for the Eligible Option, and (2) the tax withholding requirements arising from the Auto Exercise, in each case, based on the market price as of the close of trading on the date of the Auto Exercise.  This transaction is being reported to disclose the Auto Exercise of the corresponding Eligible Option held by the Reporting Person.</footnote>
