Previous report
Potential indemnification liabilities to Ralliant Corporation ("Ralliant") pursuant to the separation agreement could materially and adversely affect our businesses, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Previous report
We entered into a separation and distribution agreement and related agreements with Ralliant to govern the separation and distribution of Ralliant and the relationship between the two companies going forward. These agreements provide for specific indemnity and liability obligations of each party and could lead to disputes between us. If we are required to indemnify Ralliant under the circumstances set forth in these agreements, we may be subject to substantial liabilities. In addition, with respect to the liabilities for which Ralliant has agreed to indemnify us under these agreements, there can be no assurance that the indemnity rights we have against Ralliant will be sufficient to protect us against the full amount of the liabilities, or that Ralliant will be able to fully satisfy its indemnification obligations. Each of these risks could negatively affect our businesses, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
