Certain non-public information and Intellectual Property Rights (collectively, the “Confidential License Information”) may be, or may have been prior to the date hereof, provided by a Party (or its Subsidiaries or Representatives) (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (or its Subsidiaries or Representatives) (the “Receiving Party”). The Receiving Party agrees that (i) it will keep such Confidential License Information confidential, using at least the same degree of care used to protect its own confidential or proprietary information, but not less than reasonable

4

care, to prevent the disclosure or accessibility to others of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential License Information and (ii) it will use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential License Information only for purposes expressly permitted under this Agreement. Each of the Parties will instruct its Subsidiaries and Representatives having access to such Confidential License Information of such obligation of confidentiality.

The requirements of Section 4(a) shall not apply to any and all information that the Receiving Party can show: (a) was already known to the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure and is not subject to a confidentiality obligation, except in the case of any Trade Secret received by the Receiving Party prior to the date hereof which shall still be subject to the requirements of Section 4(a); (b) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without breach of this Agreement; (c) is already in the public domain at the time of disclosure, or thereafter becomes publicly known other than as the result of a breach by the Receiving Party of its obligations under this Agreement; (d) is received from a third party without breach of this Agreement or a confidentiality obligation to the Disclosing Party known to the Receiving Party; or (4) is required by any Law or Governmental Authority to be disclosed, after prior notice has been given to the relevant Party to the extent such notice is permitted by applicable Law.

c. If, at any time, the Receiving Party determines that any of its Representatives has disclosed, or sought to disclose, Confidential License Information of the Disclosing Party in violation of this Agreement, or that the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives has engaged in activities that may lead to the unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential License Information of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall immediately take action to prevent any further unauthorized use or disclosure, including where appropriate, terminating the applicable personnel’s access to such Confidential License Information and immediately notifying the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party will cooperate with the Disclosing Party in investigating any apparent unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential License Information of the Disclosing Party.

a. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue until the last to lose protection of the A&S Licensed IP and the Fox Licensed IP.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, EACH PARTY (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS AFFILIATES) ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE LICENSED IP IS PROVIDED “AS IS,” EACH PARTY ASSUMES ALL RISKS AND LIABILITIES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ITS USE OF, AND RELIANCE UPON, THE LICENSED IP, AND THAT NO PARTY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES IN RESPECT OF THE LICENSED IP OF ANY KIND, NATURE OR DESCRIPTION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND FORTIVE AND ALTRA HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM THE SAME.

e. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties.

f. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of, the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor either Party’s rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned, transferred or delegated by such Party without the prior written consent of the

6

other Party, and any attempted assignment or delegation of this Agreement or any of such rights or obligations by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties shall be void and of no effect. For purposes of the preceding sentence, and without limiting its generality, any merger, consolidation, or reorganization involving a Party (regardless of whether such Party is a surviving or disappearing entity) shall be deemed to be a transfer of rights under this Agreement for which the other Party’s prior written consent is required.
