(d)

(i) In the event that (A) any transfer of employment of any Veralto Employee as contemplated by Section 2.2 as of immediately prior to the Distribution Date or (B) any subsequent relocation of a Veralto Employee to a new jurisdiction on or after the Distribution Date, adversely affects the taxation of the Veralto Employee’s award under the Veralto Omnibus Incentive Plan or other relevant plan or results in a tax Liability relating to the Veralto Employee’s award under the Veralto Omnibus Incentive Plan or other relevant plan, Veralto and members of the Veralto Group shall be solely responsible for the resulting tax Liability, subject to the provisions of the applicable plan which require that each participant shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an award first becomes includible in the gross income of the participant for purposes of applicable taxes, pay to Veralto, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator of the Veralto Omnibus Incentive Plan or other relevant plan regarding payment of, all applicable taxes required by applicable law to be withheld with respect to the award.

Section 5.6    Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith regarding the need for any treatment different from that otherwise provided herein with respect to the payment of compensation to ensure that the treatment of such compensation does not cause the imposition of a Tax under Section 409A of the Code.

Section 5.7    Payroll Taxes and Reporting.
