EXPLANATORY NOTE

The purpose of this Registration Statement is to register (i) an additional 94,000 shares of common stock of Envista Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) to be issued pursuant to the Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (as amended and restated effective January 1, 2025, the “DCP”) and (ii) an additional $16,300,000 in deferred compensation obligations under the DCP. Effective as of January 1, 2025, the DCP is a continuation of the Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan and the Envista Holdings Corporation Excess Contribution Program (the “ECP”). The ECP was established as a sub-plan under the Envista Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan; however, effective January 1, 2025, the ECP will be part of the DCP and no longer a sub-plan under the Envista Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

The common stock registered hereunder is in addition to the shares of common stock previously registered on the Company’s Registration Statements on Form S-8 filed on September 17, 2019 (Commission File No. 333-233810) and February 24, 2022 (Commission File No. 333-262985). The deferred compensation obligations registered hereunder are in addition to the deferred compensation obligations previously registered on the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed on September 17, 2019 (Commission File No. 333-233810).

This Registration Statement is filed in accordance with General Instruction E to Form S-8, “Registration of Additional Securities.” Pursuant to Instruction E, the contents of the Registration Statements on Form S-8 (Commission File Nos. 333-233810 and 333-262985) are incorporated by reference and made a part of this Registration Statement except to the extent supplemented, amended or superseded by the information set forth herein.
PART I

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

The documents containing the information specified in Part I will be sent or given to participants in the DCP as specified by Rule 428(b)(1) of the Securities Act. Consistent with the instructions of Part I of Form S-8, such documents will not be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) either as part of this Registration Statement or as prospectuses or prospectus supplements pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act. These documents and the documents incorporated by reference pursuant to Item 3 of Part II of this Registration Statement, taken together, constitute a prospectus as required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act

PART II

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

    The following documents previously filed by the Company with the Commission are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement:

(a)The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Commission on February 15, 2024;

(b)The Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2024 (filed with the Commission on May 1, 2024) and June 28, 2024 (filed with the Commission on August 7, 2024);

(c)The Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 26, 2024, April 15, 2024, May 24, 2024, May 30, 2024, and July 15, 2024 (except for portions of such reports which are deemed to be furnished and not filed); and

    


(d)The description of the Company’s common stock contained in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission on September 17, 2019 (File No. 001-39054), including any amendment(s) or report(s) filed for the purpose of updating such description, including Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Commission on February 15, 2024.

All documents filed by the Company subsequent to the date of this Registration Statement pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all such securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents (except, with respect to each of the foregoing, for portions of such documents which are deemed to be furnished and not filed).

Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein, or in any subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein, modifies or supersedes such prior statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4.    Description of Securities.

The following description of the deferred compensation obligations of the Company under the DCP is a summary and is qualified by reference to the DCP, which is included as an exhibit to this Registration Statement. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Registration Statement shall have the respective meanings attributed to such terms in the DCP.

The DCP provides eligible employees who are part of a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company (the “Participants”) with an opportunity to defer a portion of their pre-tax compensation (including salary, bonus and restricted stock unit awards granted pursuant to the Envista Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan) and accumulate tax-deferred earnings (or losses) thereon. Any amounts set aside to defray the liabilities assumed by the Company or a Participating Employer, as applicable, will remain the general assets of the Company or the Participating Employer, as applicable, and shall remain subject to the claims of the Company’s or the Participating Employer’s creditors until such amounts are distributed to the Participants.

The amount of compensation deferred by each Participant is based on the elections by the Participant in accordance with the terms of the DCP, and the obligations of the Company to pay such deferred compensation obligations become due on death or other termination of employment in the form and on the date or dates determined in accordance with the DCP. The deferred compensation obligations will be indexed to one or more investment alternatives selected by the Participant from a range of alternatives offered, and the amount of the deferred compensation obligations payable to the Participant increases or decreases based on the returns of the Participant’s selected investment alternatives. However, no Participant deferrals are actually invested in any investment alternative; as a result, the Participants have no ownership interest in any of the investment alternatives.

The deferred compensation obligations cannot be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the Participants, except the administrator of the DCP has the discretion to make payments to an alternate payee in accordance with the terms of a domestic relations order.

The total amount of deferred compensation obligations being registered pursuant to this Registration Statement is an additional $16,300,000, in addition to the $15,000,000 deferred compensation obligations registered pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Commission File No. 333-233810).

    


The Company may terminate the DCP and pay Participants and Beneficiaries their Account Balances in a single lump sum at any time. Furthermore, the Company may amend the DCP at any time and for any reason, provided that any such amendment shall not reduce the vested Account Balances of any Participant accrued as of the date of any such amendment unless such amendment is reasonably required to preserve the tax treatment of benefits provided under the DCP, or is consented to by the affected Participant.

Item 5.    Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

    Not applicable.

Item 6.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director or officer of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions, (iv) for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit, or (v) an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation. Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended to date (our “second amended and restated certificate of incorporation”), contains such a provision.

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation - a “derivative action”), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains such a provision.

We have in effect a directors and officers liability insurance policy indemnifying our directors and officers for certain liabilities incurred by them, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act. We pay the entire premium of this policy.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers that provide for indemnification and advancement of expenses, which rights are in addition to any other rights such directors and officers may be entitled under the Company’s second amended and restated certification of incorporation, third amended and restated bylaws, any other agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, the DGCL, or any other law.

These indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreements may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of our officers and directors for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the provisions discussed above, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The foregoing discussion of the Company’s second amended and restated certification of incorporation, third amended and restated bylaws and the DGCL is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by
    


such second amended and restated certification of incorporation, third amended and restated bylaws and the DGCL, respectively.

Item 9.    Undertakings.


(a)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii)    To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” or “Calculation of Registration Fee” table, as applicable, in the effective Registration Statement;
    


(iii)    To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)    To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re:    Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

    We have acted as counsel to Envista Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) being filed on the date hereof by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), for the registration of (i) an additional 94,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), that may be issued by the Company pursuant to the Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (as amended and restated effective January 1, 2025, the “DCP”) and (ii) an additional $16,300,000 in deferred compensation obligations (the “Obligations”) that may be issued by the Company under the DCP. This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 8 of Form S-8 and Item 601(b)(5)(i) of Regulation S-K.

    We have participated in the preparation of the Registration Statement and have reviewed the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws, the DCP, the corporate proceedings taken by the Company in connection with the Registration Statement and the issuance of the Shares and the Obligations, and other documents and instruments as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

(i)the Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the DCP, will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable; and
(ii)upon the issuance of the Obligations in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement and in accordance with the terms of the DCP, such

Obligations will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with the terms of the DCP, except to the extent that enforcement thereof may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity.

    In rendering the opinions expressed above, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed.

    The foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America, and we express no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

    This opinion is rendered as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to advise you of changes in law or fact (or the effect thereof on the opinions expressed herein) that hereafter may come to our attention.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission issued thereunder.

Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan

Article I
Establishment and Purpose
Envista Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) has amended and restated the Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan with respect to Compensation earned and deferred under Compensation Deferral Agreements on and after the Effective Date and Company Contributions credited with respect to Plan Years commencing on or after the Effective Date. Compensation earned prior to the Effective Date are subject to the Compensation Deferral Agreements then in effect, which are reflected in Schedule B, (“Prior Plan Amounts”) and Company Contributions with respect to Plan years prior to the Effective Date are reflected in the Envista Holdings Corporation Excess Contribution Program as Established as a Sub-Plan Under the Envista Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Amounts subject to terms outlined in Schedule B shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 6.5 (Death), 6.6 (Unforeseeable Emergency), 6.7 (Administrative Cash-Out of Small Balances), 6.8 (Acceleration of or Delay in Payments), 6.10 (Modifications to Payment Schedules) and Articles VII through XII, provided that no such provision shall be interpreted or applied to change the time or form of payment with respect to specified payment times or events for any amount deferred under such Prior Plan Document.

The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain key employees by providing them with an opportunity to defer receipt of a portion of their salary and specified bonus compensation. The Plan is not intended to meet the qualification requirements of Code Section 401(a) but is intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A and shall be operated and interpreted consistent with that intent.

The Plan constitutes an unsecured promise by a Participating Employer to pay benefits in the future. Participants in the Plan shall have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company or the Participating Employer, as applicable. Each Participating Employer shall be solely responsible for payment of the benefits attributable to services performed for it. The Plan is unfunded for Federal tax purposes and is intended to be an unfunded arrangement for eligible employees who are part of a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Employer within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. Any amounts set aside to defray the liabilities assumed by the Company or a Participating Employer, as applicable, will remain the general assets of the Company or the Participating Employer, as applicable, and shall remain subject to the claims of the Company’s or the Participating Employer's creditors until such amounts are distributed to the Participants.

Article IV

(b)A Compensation Deferral Agreement that is not timely filed with respect to a service period or component of Compensation, or that is submitted by a Participant who Separates from Service prior to the latest date such agreement would become irrevocable under Section 409A, shall be considered null and void and shall not take effect with respect to such item of Compensation. The Committee may modify or revoke any Compensation Deferral Agreement prior to the date the election becomes irrevocable under the rules of Section 4.2.

(c)The Committee may permit different deferral amounts for each component of Compensation and may establish a minimum or maximum deferral amount for each such component. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee in the Compensation Deferral Agreement, Participants may defer a minimum of five percent (5%) and a maximum of eighty-five percent (85%) of their base compensation and a minimum of five percent (5%) and a maximum of eighty-five (85%) of bonus, and from ten percent (10%) to eighty (80%) of restricted stock unit awards (provided that restricted stock unit awards deferral elections must be in 10% increments).

Only whole stock units may be deferred. If a percentage deferral of a restricted stock unit award results in a fractional unit, the Deferral amount will exclude the fractional unit.

(d)Deferrals of cash Compensation shall be calculated with respect to the gross cash Compensation payable to the Participant prior to any deductions or withholdings but shall be reduced by the Committee as necessary so as not to exceed 100% of the cash Compensation of the Participant remaining after deduction of all required income and employment taxes, required employee benefit deductions, deferrals to 401(k) plans and other deductions required by law. Changes to payroll

If no designation is made, Deferrals shall be allocated to a Separation Account payable as a lump sum at the time provided under Section 6.3.

If Deferrals include restricted stock units, the applicable Compensation Deferral Agreement must allocate 100% of deferred restricted stock units to a single Separation Account payable as a lump sum at the time provided under Section 6.3.

4.2    Timing Requirements for Compensation Deferral Agreements.

(a)    Initial Eligibility. The Committee may permit an Eligible Employee to defer Compensation earned in the first year of eligibility. The Compensation Deferral Agreement must be filed within 30 days after attaining Eligible Employee status and becomes irrevocable not later than the 30th day.

    A Compensation Deferral Agreement filed under this paragraph applies to Compensation related to service performed after the date on which the Compensation Deferral Agreement becomes irrevocable. Any Deferral related to a Participant’s initial eligibility shall meet the requirements of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(7).
(b)Prior Year Election. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.2, the Committee may permit an Eligible Employee to defer Compensation by filing a Compensation Deferral Agreement no later than December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the services related to such Compensation commence. A Compensation Deferral Agreement filed under this paragraph shall become irrevocable with respect to such Compensation not later than the December 31 filing deadline.

(c)Performance-Based Compensation. The Committee may permit an Eligible Employee to defer Compensation which qualifies as Performance-Based Compensation by filing a Compensation Deferral Agreement no later than the date that is six months before the end of the applicable performance period, provided that:

(i)the Participant performs services continuously from the later of the beginning of the performance period or the date the performance criteria
Content Copyright ©2024 Newport Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
    

Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan

are established through the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement is submitted; and

(ii)    the Compensation is not readily ascertainable as of the date the Compensation Deferral Agreement is filed.

Any election to defer Performance-Based Compensation that is made in accordance with this paragraph and that becomes payable as a result of the Participant’s death or disability (as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(e)) or upon a change in control (as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)) prior to the satisfaction of the performance criteria, will be void unless it would be considered timely under another rule described in this Section.

(d)Effective Period of Deferral Elections. The Compensation Deferral Agreements will continue in effect only for the applicable year or performance period as indicated on the election form.

A Compensation Deferral Agreement is deemed to be revoked for subsequent years if the Participant is not an Eligible Employee as of the last permissible date for making elections under this Section 4.2 or if the Compensation Deferral Agreement is cancelled in accordance with Section 4.4.

4.3    Allocation of Deferrals. A Compensation Deferral Agreement may allocate cash Deferrals to one or more Flex Accounts. Deferrals of restricted stock unit awards must be allocated 100% to a single Separation Account.

In the event a Participant’s Compensation Deferral Agreement allocates a component of Compensation to a Specified Date Account that commences payment in the year such Compensation is earned and vested, the Compensation Deferral Agreement shall be deemed to allocate the Deferral to the Participant’s Specified Date Account having the next earliest payment year. If the Participant has no other Specified Date Accounts, the Committee will allocate the Deferral to a Separation Account payable as a lump sum at the time provided under Section 6.3.

4.4    Cancellation of Deferrals. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may cancel a Participant’s Deferrals for the balance of the Plan Year in which an Unforeseeable Emergency occurs.

Article V
Company Contributions
5.1    Discretionary Company Contributions. A Participating Employer may, from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion, credit discretionary Company Contributions in the form of matching, profit sharing or other contributions to any Participant in any amount determined by the Participating Employer. The fact that a discretionary Company Contribution is credited in one year shall not obligate the Participating Employer to continue to make such Company Contributions in subsequent years. Company Contributions are credited to the Participant’s Company Contribution Account. The first Company Contribution under the Plan shall be determined for services beginning January 1, 2025.
(a)    Matching Contributions. As of the February 1 immediately following the end of each Plan Year, the Account of each Participant who is not an active participant in the Envista Holdings Corporation Executive Deferred Incentive Program as Established as a Sub-Plan Under the Envista Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan shall be credited with a matching contribution in an amount, if any, which shall be equal to:
(i)    100% of the salary Deferral amounts and bonus Deferral amounts credited to the Participant's Account during such Plan Year while the Participant was an Employee, but not in excess of 3% of the Participant’s matching compensation for such Plan Year; plus
(ii)    50% of the salary Deferral amounts and bonus Deferral amounts credited to the Participant's Account during such Plan Year while the Participant is an Employee, in excess of 3% but not in excess of 5% of the Participant’s matching compensation for such Program Year.
    “Matching compensation” shall mean the salary and bonus earned by the Participant (if any) in a Plan Year which exceeds the dollar limitation set forth in Code section 401(a)(17) for that Plan Year, plus all amounts earned by the Participant (if any) in a Plan Year and deferred under Article IV, but only to the extent such amounts have not been included in the amount that exceeds the applicable dollar limitation set forth in Code section 401(a)(17).
No matching contributions will be made with respect to Deferrals of restricted stock units.

The number of designated number of units (with each unit equal in value to one share of common stock of the Company) to be credited to a Participant’s Account for matching contributions will be equal to the dollar amount of the matching contribution credited to the Participant for the applicable Plan Year, divided by

the common stock price on the Valuation Date before the crediting date above (rounded up to the next whole share).

(b)    Non-Elective Contributions. As of the February 1 immediately following the end of each Plan Year, the Account of each Participant who is not an active participant in the Envista Holdings Corporation Executive Deferred Incentive Program as Established as a Sub-Plan Under the Envista Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan shall be credited with a non-elective contribution in an amount, if any, which shall be equal to four percent (4%) of such Participant’s non-elective compensation for such Plan Year.
“Non-elective compensation” shall mean the amount equal to the sum of the Participant’s annualized rate of base salary as of December 31 of the calendar year preceding the Plan Year, plus the Participant’s target annual cash incentive as of December 31 of the calendar year preceding the Plan Year, which is in excess of the dollar limitation set forth in Code section 401(a)(17) for that Plan Year. By way of example, for the 2025 Plan Year, the non-elective contribution would be allocated to a Participant Account as of February 1, 2026, based on the sum of the Participant’s annualized rate of salary on December 31, 2024 and the target annual cash incentive for the Participant determined as of December 31, 2024 that exceeds the 2025 Code section 401(a)(17) limit.

The number of designated number of units (with each unit equal in value to one share of common stock of the Company) to be credited to a Participant’s Account for non-elective contributions will be equal to the dollar amount of the non-elective contribution credited to the Participant for the applicable Plan Year, divided by the common stock price on the Valuation Date before the crediting date above (rounded up to the next whole share).


5.2    Vesting.

(a)    Matching Contributions are 100% vested.

(b)    Non-elective Contributions are vested after a Participant completes three (3) Years of Service (as defined in the Envista Holdings Corporation Savings Plan, as it may be amended from time to time ).
(c)    Other discretionary Company Contributions vest according to the schedule specified by the Committee on or before the time the contributions are made.
(d)    All Company Contributions become 100% vested, if while employed by an Employer, a Participant dies or the Participant is unable to perform the duties of

his or her position or any substantially similar position due to a mental or physical impairment that can be expected to result in death or last for a continuous period of at least six months. The Company retains the sole discretion to accelerate vesting for any Participant at any time prior to the commencement of payment from an Account.
(e)    If the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the circumstances of and/or surrounding the Participant’s termination of employment constitutes gross misconduct on the part of the Participant, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine that the Participant’s vested interest in his or her Company Contribution Account shall be reduced to as low as zero percent (0%).

6.6    Unforeseeable Emergency. A Participant who experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency may submit a written request to the Committee to receive payment of all or any portion of his or her vested Accounts.

6.8    Acceleration of or Delay in Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to accelerate the time or form of payment of an Account, provided such acceleration is permitted under Treas.

Article VII
Valuation of Account Balances; Investments
7.1    Valuation. Deferrals shall be credited to appropriate Accounts as of the date such Compensation would have been paid to the Participant absent the Compensation Deferral Agreement. Valuation of Accounts shall be performed under procedures approved by the Committee.

7.2    Earnings Credit. Each Account will be credited with Earnings on each Business Day, based upon the Participant’s investment allocation among a menu of investment options selected in advance by the Committee, in accordance with the provisions of this Article VII (“investment allocation”).

7.3    Investment Options. The Committee will determine investment options. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall be permitted to add or remove investment options from the Plan menu from time to time, provided that any such additions or removals of investment options shall not be effective with respect to any period prior to the effective date of such change.

7.4    Investment Allocations. A Participant’s investment allocation constitutes a deemed, not actual, investment among the investment options comprising the investment menu. At no time shall a Participant have any real or beneficial ownership in any investment option included in the investment menu, nor shall the Participating Employer or any trustee acting on its behalf have any obligation to purchase actual securities as a result of a Participant’s investment allocation. A Participant’s investment allocation shall be used solely for purposes of adjusting the value of a Participant’s Account Balances.
A Participant shall specify an investment allocation for each of his Accounts in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. Allocation among the investment options must be designated in increments of 1%. The Participant’s investment allocation will become effective on the same Business Day or, in the case of investment allocations received after a time specified by the Committee, the next Business Day.

A Participant may change an investment allocation on any Business Day, both with respect to future credits to the Plan and with respect to existing Account Balances, in accordance with procedures adopted by the Committee. Changes shall become effective on the same Business Day or, in the case of investment allocations received after a time specified by the Committee, the next Business Day, and shall be applied prospectively.

7.5    Unallocated Deferrals and Accounts. If the Participant fails to make an investment allocation with respect to an Account, such Account shall be invested in an investment option, the primary objective of which is the preservation of capital, as determined by the Committee.

7.6    Company Stock.

(a)Deferrals of salary and bonus amounts cannot be elected to be deemed invested in Company stock units; provided that the deferral of the bonus earned in 2024, and paid in 2025, will be subject to the applicable election, which may permit such deferrals to be deemed invested in Company stock units, and will be subsequently subject to the terms in paragraph (d) below.
(b) Deferrals of restricted stock units will be credited to a Participant’s Account in the designated number of units with each unit equal in value to one share of common stock of the Company.

A Participant may not allocate Company Contributions to another investment option under the Plan.
(d)Prior Plan Amounts cannot be elected to be deemed invested in Company stock units on and after the Effective Date. Prior Plan Amounts deemed invested in Company stock as of the Effective Date may not be allocated to another investment option under the Plan.

Article VIII
Administration
8.1    Plan Administration. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee which shall have discretionary authority to make, amend, interpret and enforce all appropriate rules and regulations for the administration of this Plan and to utilize its discretion to decide or resolve any and all questions, including but not limited to eligibility for benefits and interpretations of this Plan and its terms, as may arise in connection with the Plan. Claims for benefits shall be filed with the Committee and resolved in accordance with the claims procedures in Article XI.

8.2    Administration Upon Change in Control. Upon a change in control affecting the Company, the Committee, as constituted immediately prior to such change in control, shall continue to act as the Committee. The Committee, by a vote of a majority of its members, shall have the authority (but shall not be obligated) to appoint an independent third party to act as the Committee. For purposes of this Section 8.2, a “change in control” means a change in control within the meaning of the rabbi trust agreement associated with the Plan or if no such definition is provided, the term shall have the meaning under Code Section 409A.

Upon such change in control, the Company may not remove the Committee or its members, unless a majority of Participants and Beneficiaries with Account Balances consent to the removal and replacement of the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall not have authority to direct investment of trust assets under any rabbi trust described in Section 10.2.

The Participating Employers shall, with respect to the Committee identified under this Section: (i) pay all reasonable expenses and fees of the Committee, (ii) indemnify the Committee (including individuals serving as Committee members) against any costs, expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses arising in connection with the performance of the Committee’s duties hereunder, except with respect to matters resulting from the Committee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (iii) supply full and timely information to the Committee on all matters related to the Plan, any rabbi trust, Participants, Beneficiaries and Accounts as the Committee may reasonably require.

8.3    Withholding. The Participating Employer shall have the right to withhold from any payment due under the Plan (or with respect to any amounts credited to the Plan) any taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of such payment (or credit). Withholdings with respect to amounts credited to the Plan shall be deducted from Compensation that has not been deferred to the Plan.

8.4    Indemnification. The Participating Employers shall indemnify and hold harmless each employee, officer, director, agent or organization, to whom or to which are delegated duties, responsibilities, and authority under the Plan or otherwise with respect to administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, the Committee, its delegees and its agents, against all claims, liabilities, fines and penalties, and all expenses reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him or it (including but not limited to reasonable attorney fees) which arise as a result of his or its actions or failure to act in connection with the operation and administration of the Plan to the extent lawfully allowable and to the extent that such claim, liability, fine, penalty, or expense is not paid for by liability insurance purchased or paid for by the Participating Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participating Employer shall not indemnify any person or organization if his or its actions or failure to act are due to gross negligence or willful misconduct or for any such amount incurred through any settlement or compromise of any action unless the Participating Employer consents in writing to such settlement or compromise.

8.5    Delegation of Authority. In the administration of this Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, employ agents and delegate to them such administrative duties as it sees fit, and may from time to time consult with legal counsel who shall be legal counsel to the Company.

8.6    Binding Decisions or Actions. The decision or action of the Committee in respect of any question arising out of or in connection with the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan and the rules and regulations thereunder shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all persons having any interest in the Plan.

Article IX
Amendment and Termination
9.1    Amendment and Termination. The Company may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan or may terminate the Plan as provided in this Article IX. Each Participating Employer may also terminate its participation in the Plan.
9.2    Amendments. The Company, by action taken by the Compensation Committee of its Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”), may amend the Plan at any time and for any reason, provided that any such amendment shall not reduce the vested Account Balances of any Participant accrued as of the date of any such amendment or restatement (as if the Participant had incurred a voluntary Separation from Service on such date) unless such amendment is reasonably required to comply with allow, preserve the tax treatment of benefits provided under the Plan, or is consented to by the affected Participant. The Compensation Committee may delegate to the Committee the authority to amend the Plan without the consent of the Compensation Committee for the purpose of: (i) conforming the Plan to the requirements of law; (ii) facilitating the administration of the Plan; (iii) clarifying provisions based on the Committee’s interpretation of the Plan documents; and (iv) making such other amendments as the Compensation Committee may authorize. No amendment is needed to revise the list of Participating Employers set forth on Schedule A attached hereto.
9.3    Termination. The Company, by action taken by its Compensation Committee, may terminate the Plan and pay Participants and Beneficiaries their Account Balances in a single lump sum at any time, to the extent and in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix).

9.4    Accounts Taxable Under Code Section 409A. The Plan is intended to constitute a plan of deferred compensation that meets the requirements for deferral of income taxation under Code Section 409A. The Committee, pursuant to its authority to interpret the Plan, may sever from the Plan or any Compensation Deferral Agreement any provision or exercise of a right that otherwise would result in a violation of Code Section 409A.

Article X
Informal Funding
10.1    General Assets. Obligations established under the terms of the Plan may be satisfied from the general funds of the Participating Employers, or a trust described in this Article X. No Participant, spouse or Beneficiary shall have any right, title or interest whatever in assets of the Participating Employers. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Participating Employers and any Employee, spouse, or Beneficiary. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments hereunder, such rights are no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Participating Employer.

10.2    Rabbi Trust. A Participating Employer may, in its sole discretion, establish a grantor trust, commonly known as a rabbi trust, as a vehicle for accumulating assets to pay benefits under the Plan. Payments under the Plan may be paid from the general assets of the Participating Employer or from the assets of any such rabbi trust. Payment from any such source shall reduce the obligation owed to the Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan.

If a rabbi trust is in existence upon the occurrence of a “change in control,” as defined in such trust, the Participating Employer shall, upon such change in control, and on each anniversary of the change in control, contribute in cash or liquid securities such amounts as are necessary so that the value of assets after making the contributions exceed 110% of the total value of all Account Balances.

Article XI
Claims
11.1    Filing a Claim. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Plan shall be filed in writing with the Committee which shall make all determinations concerning such claim. Any claim filed with the Committee and any decision by the Committee denying such claim shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the Participant or Beneficiary filing the claim (the “Claimant”). Notice of a claim for payments shall be delivered to the Committee within 90 days of the latest date upon which the payment could have been timely made in accordance with the terms of the Plan and Code Section 409A, and if not paid, the Participant or Beneficiary must file a claim under this Article XI not later than 180 days after such latest date. If the Participant or Beneficiary fails to file a timely claim, the Participant forfeits any amounts to which he or she may have been entitled to receive under the claim.

(a)    In General. Notice of a denial of benefits (other than claims based on disability) will be provided within 90 days of the Committee’s receipt of the Claimant's claim for benefits. If the Committee determines that it needs additional time to review the claim, the Committee will provide the Claimant with a notice of the extension before the end of the initial 90-day period. The extension will not be more than 90 days from the end of the initial 90-day period and the notice of extension will explain the special circumstances that require the extension and the date by which the Committee expects to make a decision.

(b)    Disability Benefits. Notice of denial of claims based on disability will be provided within forty-five (45) days of the Committee’s receipt of the Claimant’s claim for disability benefits. If the Committee determines that it needs additional time to review the disability claim, the Committee will provide the Claimant with a notice of the extension before the end of the initial 45-day period. If the Committee determines that a decision cannot be made within the first extension period due to matters beyond the control of the Committee, the time period for making a determination may be further extended for an additional 30 days. If such an additional extension is necessary, the Committee shall notify the Claimant prior to the expiration of the initial 30-day extension. Any notice of extension shall indicate the circumstances necessitating the extension of time, the date by which the Committee expects to furnish a notice of decision, the specific standards on which such entitlement to a benefit is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the claim and any additional information needed to resolve those issues. A Claimant will be provided a minimum of 45 days to submit any necessary additional information to the Committee. In the event that a 30-day extension is necessary due to a Claimant’s failure to submit information necessary to decide a claim, the period for furnishing a notice of decision shall be tolled from the date on which the notice of the extension is sent to the Claimant until the

earlier of the date the Claimant responds to the request for additional information or the response deadline.

(c)    Contents of Notice. If a claim for benefits is completely or partially denied, notice of such denial shall be in writing. Any electronic notification shall comply with the standards imposed by Department of Labor Regulation 29 CFR 2520.104b-1(c)(1)(i), (iii), and (iv). The notice of denial shall set forth the specific reasons for denial in plain language. The notice shall: (i) cite the pertinent provisions of the Plan document, and (ii) explain, where appropriate, how the Claimant can perfect the claim, including a description of any additional material or information necessary to complete the claim and why such material or information is necessary. The claim denial also shall include an explanation of the claims review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including the right to appeal the decision, the deadline by which such appeal must be filed and a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse decision on appeal and the specific date by which such a civil action must commence under Section 11.4.

In the case of a complete or partial denial of a disability benefit claim, the notice shall provide such information and shall be communicated in the manner required under applicable Department of Labor regulations.

11.2    Appeal of Denied Claims. A Claimant whose claim has been completely or partially denied shall be entitled to appeal the claim denial by filing a written appeal with a committee designated to hear such appeals (the “Appeals Committee”). A Claimant who timely requests a review of the denied claim (or his or her authorized representative) may review, upon request and free of charge, copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the denial and may submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim to the Appeals Committee. All written comments, documents, records, and other information shall be considered “relevant” if the information: (i) was relied upon in making a benefits determination, (ii) was submitted, considered or generated in the course of making a benefits decision regardless of whether it was relied upon to make the decision, or (iii) demonstrates compliance with administrative processes and safeguards established for making benefit decisions. The review shall consider all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. The Appeals Committee may, in its sole discretion and if it deems appropriate or necessary, decide to hold a hearing with respect to the claim appeal.

(a)In General. Appeal of a denied benefits claim (other than a disability benefits claim) must be filed in writing with the Appeals Committee no later than 60 days after receipt of the written notification of such claim denial. The Appeals

Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan

Committee shall make its decision regarding the merits of the denied claim within 60 days following receipt of the appeal (or within 120 days after such receipt, in a case where there are special circumstances requiring extension of time for reviewing the appealed claim). If an extension of time for reviewing the appeal is required because of special circumstances, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the commencement of the extension. The notice will indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Appeals Committee expects to render the determination on review. The review will consider comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

(b)Disability Benefits. Appeal of a denied disability benefits claim must be filed in writing with the Appeals Committee no later than 180 days after receipt of the written notification of such claim denial. The review shall be conducted in accordance with applicable Department of Labor regulations.

The Appeals Committee shall make its decision regarding the merits of the denied claim within 45 days following receipt of the appeal (or within 90 days after such receipt, in a case where there are special circumstances requiring extension of time for reviewing the appealed claim). If an extension of time for reviewing the appeal is required because of special circumstances, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Claimant prior to the commencement of the extension. The notice will indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Appeals Committee expects to render the determination on review. Following its review of any additional information submitted by the Claimant, the Appeals Committee shall render a decision on its review of the denied claim.

(c)Contents of Notice. If a benefits claim is completely or partially denied on review, notice of such denial shall be in writing. Any electronic notification shall comply with the standards imposed by Department of Labor Regulation 29 CFR 2520.104b-1(c)(1)(i), (iii), and (iv). Such notice shall set forth the reasons for denial in plain language.

The decision on review shall set forth: (i) the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (ii) specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (iii) a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records, or other information relevant (as defined above) to the Claimant’s claim, and (iv) a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of

ERISA, following an adverse decision on review and the specific date by which such a civil action must commence under Section 11.4.

For the denial of a disability benefit, the notice will also include such additional information and be communicated in the manner required under applicable Department of Labor regulations.

11.3    Claims Appeals Upon Change in Control. Upon a change in control, the Appeals Committee, as constituted immediately prior to such change in control, shall continue to act as the Appeals Committee. The Company may not remove any member of the Appeals Committee but may replace resigning members if 2/3rds of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company and a majority of Participants and Beneficiaries with Account Balances consent to the replacement. For purposes of this Section 11.3, a “change in control” means a change in control within the meaning of the rabbi trust agreement associated with the Plan or if no such definition is provided, the term shall have the meaning under Code Section 409A.

The Appeals Committee shall have the exclusive authority at the appeals stage to interpret the terms of the Plan and resolve appeals under the Claims Procedure.

Each Participating Employer shall, with respect to the Committee identified under this Section: (i) pay its proportionate share of all reasonable expenses and fees of the Appeals Committee, (ii) indemnify the Appeals Committee (including individual committee members) against any costs, expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses arising in connection with the performance of the Appeals Committee hereunder, except with respect to matters resulting from the Appeals Committee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (iii) supply full and timely information to the Appeals Committee on all matters related to the Plan, any rabbi trust, Participants, Beneficiaries and Accounts as the Appeals Committee may reasonably require.

11.4    Legal Action. A Claimant may not bring any legal action, including commencement of any arbitration, relating to a claim for benefits under the Plan unless and until the Claimant has followed the claims procedures under the Plan and exhausted his or administrative remedies under Sections 11.1 and 11.2. No such legal action may be brought more than twelve (12) months following the notice of denial of benefits under Section 11.2, or if no appeal is filed by the applicable appeals deadline, twelve (12) months following the appeals deadline.

If a Participant or Beneficiary prevails in a legal proceeding brought under the Plan to enforce the rights of such Participant or any other similarly situated Participant or Beneficiary, in whole or in part, the Participating Employer shall reimburse such Participant or Beneficiary for all legal costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees and such other

Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan

liabilities incurred as a result of such proceedings. If the legal proceeding is brought in connection with a change in control as defined in Section 11.3, the Participant or Beneficiary may file a claim directly with the trustee for reimbursement of such costs, expenses and fees. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the amount of the claim shall be treated as if it were an addition to the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s Account Balance and will be included in determining the Participating Employer’s trust funding obligation under Section 10.2.

11.5    Discretion of Appeals Committee. All interpretations, determinations and decisions of the Appeals Committee with respect to any claim shall be made in its sole discretion and shall be final and conclusive.

11.6    Arbitration.

(a)Prior to Change in Control. If, prior to a change in control as defined in Section 11.3, any claim or controversy between a Participating Employer and a Participant or Beneficiary is not resolved through the claims procedure set forth in Article XI, such claim shall be submitted to and resolved exclusively by expedited binding arbitration by a single arbitrator. Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:

The complaining party shall promptly send written notice to the other party identifying the matter in dispute and the proposed remedy. Following the giving of such notice, the parties shall meet and attempt in good faith to resolve the matter. In the event the parties are unable to resolve the matter within 21 days, the parties shall meet and attempt in good faith to select a single arbitrator acceptable to both parties. If a single arbitrator is not selected by mutual consent within ten Business Days following the giving of the written notice of dispute, an arbitrator shall be selected from a list of nine persons each of whom shall be an attorney who is either engaged in the active practice of law or recognized arbitrator and who, in either event, is experienced in serving as an arbitrator in disputes between employers and employees, which list shall be provided by the main office of either JAMS, the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. If, within three Business Days of the parties’ receipt of such list, the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator from the list, then the parties shall each strike names alternatively from the list, with the first to strike being determined by the flip of a coin. After each party has had four strikes, the remaining name on the list shall be the arbitrator. If such person is unable to serve for any reason, the parties shall repeat this process until an arbitrator is selected.

Unless the parties agree otherwise, within 60 days of the selection of the arbitrator, a hearing shall be conducted before such arbitrator at a time and a place

Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan

agreed upon by the parties. In the event the parties are unable to agree upon the time or place of the arbitration, the time and place shall be designated by the arbitrator after consultation with the parties. Within 30 days of the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, the arbitrator shall issue an award, accompanied by a written decision explaining the basis for the arbitrator’s award.

In any arbitration hereunder, the Participating Employer shall pay all administrative fees of the arbitration and all fees of the arbitrator, except that the Participant or Beneficiary may, if he/she/it wishes, pay up to one-half of those amounts. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses, unless the arbitrator orders otherwise. The prevailing party in such arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator, and in any enforcement or other court proceedings, shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to reimbursement from the other party for all of the prevailing party’s costs (including but not limited to the arbitrator’s compensation), expenses, and attorneys’ fees. The arbitrator shall have no authority to add to or to modify this Plan, shall apply all applicable law, and shall have no lesser and no greater remedial authority than would a court of law resolving the same claim or controversy. The arbitrator shall, upon an appropriate motion, dismiss any claim without an evidentiary hearing if the party bringing the motion establishes that it would be entitled to summary judgment if the matter had been pursued in court litigation.

The parties shall be entitled to discovery as follows: Each party may take no more than three depositions. The Participating Employer may depose the Participant or Beneficiary plus two other witnesses, and the Participant or Beneficiary may depose the Participating Employer, pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, plus two other witnesses. Each party may make such reasonable document discovery requests as are allowed in the discretion of the arbitrator.

The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, binding, and non-appealable, and may be enforced as a final judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

This arbitration provision of the Plan shall extend to claims against any parent, subsidiary, or affiliate of each party, and, when acting within such capacity, any officer, director, shareholder, Participant, Beneficiary, or agent of any party, or of any of the above, and shall apply as well to claims arising out of state and federal statutes and local ordinances as well as to claims arising under the common law or under this Plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and unless otherwise agreed between the parties, either party may apply to a court for provisional relief, including a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction, on the ground that the arbitration

Envista Holdings Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan

award to which the applicant may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without provisional relief.

Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act: provided, however, that, in the event of any inconsistency between the rules and procedures of the Act and the terms of this Plan, the terms of this Plan shall prevail.

If any of the provisions of this Section 11.6(a) are determined to be unlawful or otherwise unenforceable, in the whole part, such determination shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this section and this section shall be reformed to the extent necessary to carry out its provisions to the greatest extent possible and to insure that the resolution of all conflicts between the parties, including those arising out of statutory claims, shall be resolved by neutral, binding arbitration. If a court should find that the provisions of this Section 11.6(a) are not absolutely binding, then the parties intend any arbitration decision and award to be fully admissible in evidence in any subsequent action, given great weight by any finder of fact and treated as determinative to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The parties do not agree to arbitrate any putative class action or any other representative action. The parties agree to arbitrate only the claims(s) of a single Participant or Beneficiary.

(b)Upon Change in Control. Upon a change in control as defined in Section 11.3, Section 11.6(a) shall not apply and any legal action initiated by a Participant or Beneficiary to enforce his or her rights under the Plan may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the Appeals Committee’s discretion under Sections 11.3 and 11.5, the court shall apply a de novo standard of review to any prior claims decision under Sections 11.1 through 11.3 or any other determination made by the Company, its Board of Directors, a Participating Employer, the Committee, or the Appeals Committee.

No interest of any Participant, spouse or Beneficiary under this Plan and no benefit payable hereunder shall be assigned as security for a loan, and any such purported assignment shall be null, void and of no effect, nor shall any such interest or any such benefit be subject in any manner, either voluntarily or involuntarily, to anticipation, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance by or through any Participant, spouse or Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, however, the Committee has the discretion to make payments to an alternate payee in accordance with the terms of a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(1)(B)).

    The Company may assign any or all of its liabilities under this Plan in connection with any restructuring, recapitalization, sale of assets or other similar transactions affecting a Participating Employer without the consent of the Participant.

12.2    No Legal or Equitable Rights or Interest. No Participant or other person shall have any legal or equitable rights or interest in this Plan that are not expressly granted in this Plan. Participation in this Plan does not give any person any right to be retained in the service of the Participating Employer. The right and power of a Participating Employer to dismiss or discharge an Employee is expressly reserved. The Participating Employers make no representations or warranties as to the tax consequences to a Participant or a Participant’s beneficiaries resulting from a deferral of income pursuant to the Plan.

12.6    Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof and the Committee may elect in its sole discretion to construe such invalid or unenforceable provisions in a manner that conforms to applicable law or as if such provisions, to the extent invalid or unenforceable, had not been included.

12.7    Facility of Payment to a Minor. If a distribution is to be made to a minor, or to a person who is otherwise incompetent, then the Committee may, in its discretion, make such distribution: (i) to the legal guardian, or if none, to a parent of a minor payee with whom the payee maintains his or her residence, or (ii) to the conservator or committee or, if none, to the person having custody of an incompetent payee. Any such distribution shall fully discharge the Committee, the Company, and the Plan from further liability on account thereof.

12.8    Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by ERISA, the laws of the State of Delaware shall govern the construction and administration of the Plan.
12.9    Compliance With Code Section 409A; No Guarantee.

Schedule B

Prior Plan Distribution Terms

B.1    Establishment of Accounts.
An Account shall be established for a Participant for each Plan Year with respect to which the Participant completed an enrollment form or election form in accordance with Plan terms. At such time, the Participant shall designate the time and form of payment of such Account from among the following available options:
(a)    Timing. Subject to Section B.1(d) below, the Participant shall designate the Account to be paid or commence payment upon one of the following payment events:
(i)    Upon the Participant’s Separation from Service, with the payment commencing on the first day of the month following such date below as elected by the Participant:
(A)    the Participant’s Separation from Service;
(B)     the last day of the six (6) month period commencing on the Participant’s Separation from Service;
(C)    the last day of the twelve (12) month period commencing on the Participant’s Separation from Service; or
(D)    the last day of the twenty-four (24) month period commencing on the Participant’s Separation from Service.
(ii)    Upon a fixed date not less than three (3) years following the year the Account is established.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant designates his or her Account to be paid or commence payment upon a fixed date, and his or her Separation from Service occurs prior to such fixed date, the Account shall be paid upon the payment event designated by the Participant pursuant to subsection (i) above or, if the Participant has not made such a designation, upon the first day of the month following the Participant’s Separation from Service.
If the Committee determines that the Participant has not properly designated a time of payment for an Account in accordance with the terms of this Section B.1 or the procedures established by the Committee, such Participant shall be deemed to have designated the Account to be payable upon the first day of the month following the Participant’s Separation from Service.
(b)    Form. With respect to each payment event described in Section B.1(a), the Participant may designate the Account to be paid upon such payment event as either:

(i)    A lump sum; or
(ii)    In annual installments over no more than ten (10) years.
If the Committee determines that the Participant has not properly designated a form of payment for an Account in accordance with the terms of this Section B.1 or the procedures established by the Committee, such Participant shall be deemed to have designated the Account to be payable in a lump sum.
If an Account is to be distributed in installments, the first installment shall be made on the applicable date described in Section B.1(a) (including any delay in payment pursuant to Section B.1(d), if applicable), and each subsequent installment thereafter shall be made on the anniversary of the first installment until all installment payments of the amount have been paid to the Participant. The amount of each installment payment shall equal the quotient of (A) the total remaining balance in the Account as of the Valuation Date immediately prior to the date on which such installment payment is scheduled to be paid, divided by (B) the number of installment payments remaining in the applicable period of annual installments. The entitlement to a series of installment payments under this Plan shall be treated as the entitlement to a single payment, and each such installment payment shall not be considered a separate payment hereunder.
(c)    Medium. Any portion of a Participant’s Account that is deemed invested in shares of Company stock shall be paid in shares of Company stock. Any portion of a Participant’s Account that is not deemed invested in shares of Company stock shall be paid in cash.
(d)    Special Payment Rule for Specified Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions may not be made to a Specified Employee due to the Participant’s Employment Termination Date other than on account of death before the first day of the month following the last day of the six (6) month period commencing on the Participant’s Employment Termination Date, or, if earlier, the Participant’s date of death. Installment payments that would have commenced during the period of delay will commence as of the next monthly payment date following the period of delay.
For purposes of the Plan, “Specified Employee” shall mean an Employee who is a “key employee” as such term is defined in Code section 416(i) without regard to Code section 416(i)(5). For purposes of determining which Employees are key employees, an Employee is a key employee if the Employee meets the requirements of Code section 416(i)(A)(i), (ii) or (iii) (applied in accordance with the regulations thereunder and disregarding Code section 416(i)(5)) at any time during the 12-month period ending on an identification date (which shall be December 31st of each calendar year); provided, however, that all Employees who are nonresident aliens during the entire 12-month period ending with the relevant identification date shall be excluded in any such determination.
