EXPLANATORY NOTE

On June 30, 2016, Fortive Corporation (“Fortive”) filed the original Registration Statement on Form S-8, File No. 333-212348 (“Original S-8”), to register 5,000,000 shares issuable under the Fortive Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the “Retained Plan”) and the Fortive Corporation Union Retirement Savings Plan (the “Terminated Plan”), indeterminate number of plan interests pursuant to the Retained Plan, and indeterminate number of plan interests pursuant to the Terminated Plan (“Terminated Plan Interests”). This Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed by Fortive to remove the Terminated Plan originally included as one of the plans identified in its Original S-8 and to deregister all Terminated Plan Interests that were registered under the Original S-8 and remain unissued under the Terminated Plan.

In connection with the separation of Vontier Corporation from Fortive on October 9, 2020, the Terminated Plan was terminated by Fortive, with the succession plan adopted by Vontier Corporation.
