Danaher Corp

Danaher has adopted a formal policy governing political expenditures, set forth in our Sustainability Policy. Since 2012, no funds or assets of Danaher Corporation or its subsidiaries have been contributed to or for any political party or candidate, whether federal, state or local; any entity operating under 26 U.S.C. Sec. 527 of the Internal Revenue Code; any entity organized under 26 U.S.C. Sec. 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code; any ballot measure; or any public communication that expressly advocates the election or defeat of a political candidate ("political purposes"). Pursuant to the policy, Danaher has no intention of contributing any company funds or assets for political purposes, and any contribution of company funds or assets for political purposes would require approval by Danaher's President and CEO.

**5. Political Involvement and Political Contributions**

a. Political Involvement. We believe in the right of our associates to participate in the political process. We encourage our associates to be active in charitable and political activities on their own time and at their own expense. In particular, our Code of Conduct provides that:

- In all communications, associates must make clear that political views and actions are their own and not those of Danaher.

- Associates may never use Danaher resources to contribute to, support or oppose any political party or candidate unless approved by Danaher Corporation's Board of Directors or a committee of the Board.

- Supervisors should not solicit direct or indirect reports to contribute to, support or oppose any political party or candidate.

- Associates may never make a charitable or political contribution with the intent to improperly influence someone.

Danaher has no intention of contributing any company funds or assets for political purposes; any contribution of company funds or assets for political purposes would require approval by Danaher's President and CEO.
