Additional Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for Employees

3/27/18

Is there a change in strategy that Fortive is pursuing by selling the automation companies from the earlier position of growing through acquisitions?

As we explored ways to increase the breadth of our automation offering, this complementary alignment with Altra provided what we believe to be the best path for growth for the benefit of our customers, employees and shareholders.

Where does Altra have facilities?

In addition to their headquarters in Braintree, MA, Altra has over 30 manufacturing facilities globally. You can find a full listing on their website at http://www.altramotion.com/about-us/our-locations.

Will there be layoffs and/or plant consolidations when the transaction is completed?

We fully expect all businesses and locations to continue to run business as usual during the transition period and deliver quality products to our customers on-time. As to future changes, if any, those will be determine by Altra after the transaction closes.

What will be the organizational structure with Altra after the deal closes?

Altra is still evaluating the appropriate structure post-transaction.

Can employees move into and out of the businesses impacted by this transaction?

As of the date of the announcement, employees from JVS, Kollmorgen, Portescap, and Thomson will not be able to move into remaining Fortive businesses. Employees from the remaining Fortive businesses can be considered for positions within the four A&S businesses if it is to backfill a departing employee. Employees from within these four businesses may move across the four businesses to backfill for a departing employee.

What does this mean for FBS sharing (benchmarking, joint kaizens, etc.)?

All FBS activities should continue in normal course until the transaction with Altra is completed.

Will the employees within the A&S platform be able to continue taking HBX and other courses during this transition? Will there be any access to training after the close of the deal?

Employees will be able to continue to participate in all offerings for which they qualify during the transition period. We will also be offering additional train-the-trainer courses to ensure that there are enough qualified trainers to support the programs after the transaction closes.

From an HR perspective, what will happen to our employees working through immigration services through Seyfarth?

Most employees will remain employed by the same legal entity after the transaction. Therefore, there will be no work permit implications as a result of the transaction. For those who will experience a change of employer, our HR and Legal teams are working with immigration counsel and will partner with Altra to determine how to maintain continuity of employment authorization before, during, and after the transition. How we accomplish this will depend on work permit category, but regardless of category (H1-B, L-1, TN, green card status, E-3), we plan to maintain employment authorization while transitioning from one employer to another.

What is the plan in facilities where there are combined businesses and resources, including in facilities outside the United States?

No determinations have been made at this time, but this will be a key area of focus during the transition period.

What will happen to the payroll shared services we receive from, or provide to, other operating companies, including payroll services provided outside the United States by another operating company?

We are in the process of gathering all of the information on hosted employees and will be working through the process to transition these employees similar to the process we used when Fortive separated from Danaher. We ask that no actions be taken to move employees until directed to do so.

Can you provide us information around Altra’s benefits, including medical benefits and 401(k) contributions?

In general, Altra will offer benefits of comparable value to Fortive plans.

What will happen to our bonus programs with Altra?

Unless otherwise provided by law, Altra will continue the existing incentive programs with remaining performance periods at the time of close until the end of the performance period (subject to adjustments to performance goals, if reasonably necessary to reflect the transaction).

What ERP system does Altra use, and whose system will we use after the transaction?

This will be an area of focus during the transition period.
