On October 19, 2017 and pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated September 6, 2017, by and among Landauer, Inc. (the “Company”), Fern Merger Sub Inc. (the “Merger Sub”), and Fortive Corporation (“Fortive”), Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger as an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of Fortive (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, all shares of Common Stock, par value $0.10 (the “Common Stock”), of the Company held under the Landauer, Incorporated 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”) have been cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment. In connection with the Merger, the Common Stock of Landauer, Inc. has been eliminated as an investment option under the Plan. Therefore, interests in the Plan are exempt from registration. Accordingly, this Form 15 has been filed to suspend the Plan’s duties to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including on Form 11-K.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Landauer, Incorporated 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
