This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Fortive Corporation (“Fortive”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 28, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Issuer Tender Offer Statement, filed with the SEC on September 5, 2018 (as so amended, the “Schedule TO”).

This Schedule TO relates to the offer by Fortive to exchange all shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Newco common stock”), of Stevens Holding Company, Inc. (“Newco”) for shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Fortive (“Fortive common stock”) that are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer (as defined below).

Promptly following consummation of the Exchange Offer, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (“Altra”) named McHale Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), will be merged with and into Newco, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and Newco will continue as the surviving company (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each outstanding share of Newco common stock (except for shares of Newco common stock held by Fortive, Newco, Altra or Merger Sub) will be converted into the right to receive one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Altra (“Altra common stock”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus, dated August 28, 2018 (the “Prospectus”), the Letter of Transmittal and the Exchange and Transmittal Information Booklet, copies of which were previously filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii), respectively to the Schedule TO (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Exchange Offer”).

In connection with the Exchange Offer, Newco has filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), a registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-224754) (the “Registration Statement”) to register the shares of Newco common stock offered in exchange for shares of Fortive common stock tendered in the Exchange Offer and to be distributed in any pro rata dividend to the extent that the Exchange Offer is not fully subscribed. Altra has filed under the Securities Act a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-224750) to register the shares of Altra common stock into which shares of Newco common stock will be converted in the Merger.    

This Amendment No. 2 shall be read together with the Schedule TO. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO.

Items 1-9 and 11.

The Prospectus and the Schedule TO, to the extent Item 1 through Item 9, and Item 11 of the Schedule TO incorporate by reference the information contained in the Prospectus, are hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the paragraph under the section “The Transactions—Litigation Relating to the Transactions” of the Prospectus with the following paragraph:

On August 8, 2018, a purported class action was filed against Altra and each of the members of its board of directors and Fortive in the Superior Court of Norfolk County, Massachusetts, by an individual who purported to be a stockholder of Altra. The plaintiff purported to bring this action on behalf of all public stockholders of Altra. The complaint alleged that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties in approving the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and by failing to disclose all material facts relevant to such transactions in the proxy statement. The complaint also asserted that Fortive aided and abetted the individual defendants’ alleged breach of fiduciary duties. The plaintiff sought, among other things, to enjoin the Merger and obtain monetary damages in an unspecified amount as well as legal fees and expenses. On September 12, 2018, the plaintiff filed a Stipulation of Dismissal Without Prejudice, pursuant to which this action has been dismissed. The stipulated dismissal has been entered by the Superior Court of Norfolk County, Massachusetts.
