Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Securities Purchase Agreement

On June 11, 2018, PTC Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Rockwell Automation, Inc. (“Rockwell”) in connection with a strategic partnership between the two parties. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 10,582,010 shares of its common stock (the “Shares”) to Rockwell at a purchase price of $94.50 per share or an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.0 billion (the “Investment”).

The Purchase Agreement contains customary conditions to closing of the Investment (the “Closing”), including receipt of all approvals or the termination or expiration of all waiting periods required under applicable antitrust laws. The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by either the Company or Rockwell if the Closing has not occurred by August 10, 2018, subject to extension by either party to September 9, 2018 if the required antitrust approvals have not been obtained by that date.

Each of the Company and Rockwell has made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement. The representations and warranties of the Company will generally survive until the date that is nine months after the date on which the Closing occurs. Subject to certain limitations, each party has agreed to indemnify the other party for damages incurred by the other party arising out of any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of such party included in the Purchase Agreement.

Board Representation. In connection with the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) will be increased to create one vacancy, and Rockwell will be entitled to appoint one individual to the Board to fill such vacancy (a “Rockwell Designee”). The Rockwell Designee will be an individual to be selected by Rockwell who is reasonably acceptable to the Board. The Rockwell Designee, when elected at the Closing, will serve for a term expiring at the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of shareholders and also will be appointed to serve on the Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. Rockwell and the Company have agreed that Blake D. Moret, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rockwell, will be the initial Rockwell Designee. Rockwell will retain the right to nominate a Rockwell Designee for election by the shareholders of the Company at subsequent annual meetings for the period commencing at the Closing and ending on the date that Rockwell beneficially owns shares of the Company’s common stock representing less than 5.0% of the outstanding shares of common stock (the “Director Period”).

Standstill Obligations. Rockwell will be subject to a standstill provision until the later of (1) the third anniversary of the Closing and (2) the expiration of the Director Period, subject to earlier termination upon certain events (the “Standstill Period”). During the Standstill Period, Rockwell will not, among other things and subject to specified exceptions: (a) acquire any securities of the Company if, immediately after such acquisition, Rockwell, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.0% of the outstanding common stock of the Company; (b) propose any merger, consolidation, business combination, tender offer or similar transaction involving the Company; (c) solicit proxies or consents to vote any securities of the Company; or (d) form, join or participate in any group (as such term is used in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)).

Transfer Restrictions. For a period ending on the earlier of (1) the third anniversary of the Closing and (2) the one-month anniversary of the expiration or termination of the Strategic Alliance Agreement (as described below), Rockwell will be restricted from transferring the Shares subject to certain exceptions. Following the first anniversary of the Closing, Rockwell will be allowed to transfer Shares not exceeding, in the aggregate in any 90-day period, a number of Shares equal to 1.0% of the Company’s total outstanding common stock as of the first date in such 90-day period, but no more than 2.0% of the total outstanding shares of common stock in each of the second year and the third year after the Closing. Rockwell also will be generally restricted from transferring the Shares to (a) certain competitors of PTC or (b) any person that would, after giving effect to such transfer, beneficially own 5.0% or more of the Company’s total outstanding common stock and would be required to file a Schedule 13D under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Voting Obligations. During the Standstill Period, Rockwell will be required to (1) cause all of the shares of the Company’s common stock that it beneficially owns to be present for quorum purposes at any meeting of the shareholders of the Company, and (2) vote all of such shares in accordance with the Board’s recommendations with respect to the election of directors, all business involving compensation matters (including new or amended equity plans and “say on pay” proposals), and the ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent public accounting firm set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for the meeting.

Registration Rights Agreement. The Company and Rockwell also have agreed to enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) at the Closing. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, Rockwell will receive customary registration rights subject to market standstill provisions, and the Company will be obligated to file a resale shelf registration statement with respect to the Shares not later than the first anniversary of the Closing.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the form of Registration Rights Agreement attached to the Purchase Agreement, does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. The representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for purposes of the Purchase Agreement and as of specific dates, are solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries to the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement and should not rely on the representations and warranties or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties thereto or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

Strategic Alliance Agreement

Simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Rockwell, which was effective on June 11, 2018. The Strategic Alliance Agreement provides, among other things, for each party to have the right to (1) distribute certain of the other party’s products on an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) basis as part of a combined new offering and (2) resell the same products and associated support on a standalone basis. The Strategic Alliance Agreement provides for Rockwell to have certain exclusive rights to distribute the subject products and services in designated territories and with certain types of factory automation customers. Rockwell has agreed to certain minimums with respect to its sale of the Company’s products over the term of the Strategic Alliance Agreement. The Strategic Alliance Agreement also includes certain limitations on the ability of each party to partner with companies with similar products and solutions to those included in the strategic partnership.

The Strategic Alliance Agreement has a term ending on September 30, 2021, and may be renewed upon mutual agreement of the parties. Each party may terminate the Strategic Alliance Agreement under certain circumstances, including (a) the other party materially breaches the Strategic Alliance Agreement and such breach is not cured within a specified period, (b) the other party files for bankruptcy, or (c) in the event of a change of control of either party. In addition, the Company may terminate the Strategic Alliance Agreement if Rockwell materially breaches the standstill provisions or transfer restrictions under the Purchase Agreement and such breach is not cured within a specified period.

The foregoing description of the Strategic Alliance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Strategic Alliance Agreement, a copy of which will be filed by the Company with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2018. The Company intends to submit a FOIA Confidential Treatment Request to the SEC requesting that it be permitted to redact certain portions of the Strategic Alliance Agreement. The omitted material will be included in the request for confidential treatment.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information contained in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the Securities Purchase Agreement is incorporated herein by reference. The Company will offer and sell the Shares in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company will rely on this exemption from registration based in part on representations made by Rockwell in the Purchase Agreement.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On June 11, 2018, the Company issued a press release with respect to the strategic partnership with Rockwell. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

The information included in this item and Exhibit 99.1 are not deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, nor shall this item and Exhibit 99.1 be incorporated by reference into the Company’s filings under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such future filing.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

Subject to completion of the Investment, the Board has authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock pursuant to its stock repurchase program (such $1.0 billion authorization would be in addition to the $500 million authorized under this program in September 2017). Share repurchases may be executed through various means, including open market and privately negotiated transactions, over the period commencing upon the Closing and ending September 30, 2020. The Company’s stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any shares and may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Board in its discretion at any time.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements relating to the investment by Rockwell, the use of the proceeds therefrom, the expected election of a director, the benefits of the strategic partnership with Rockwell, and the Company’s stock repurchase program are forward-looking statements that involve a number of uncertainties and risks. Actual results may differ materially from these statements and from actual future events or results due to a variety of factors, including: the closing conditions for the Investment may not be satisfied or waived; the Company may experience disruptions in its business due to the transactions with Rockwell; the strategic partnership with Rockwell may not expand the Company’s business and/or generate revenue as expected; any use of proceeds or share repurchases may not occur as expected; the integration of the solutions and development of future solutions may not occur as expected; and the other risks described in reports and documents that the Company files from time to time with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are based on information available to the Company on the date hereof. Except to the extent required by applicable law, the Company disclaims any obligation to update information contained in these forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

ARTICLE 1

PURCHASE AND SALE OF SECURITIES

1.1 Purchase and Sale of Securities. At the Closing, the Company will issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser will purchase from the Company, 10,582,010 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares” or the “Securities”).

The day on which the Closing takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date”.

ARTICLE 2

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except as specifically contemplated by this Agreement or as set forth in the SEC Documents to the extent that such SEC Documents are publicly available on EDGAR and the relevance of the applicable disclosure as an exception to the applicable representations and warranties would be reasonably apparent to an individual who has read that disclosure and such representations and warranties, but excluding, in each case, any disclosures set forth in any “risk factor” section or in any other section to the extent they are forward-looking statements or cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser that:

2.1 Organization and Qualification.

(a) The Company is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, with the necessary corporate power and authority to conduct its business as currently conducted or proposed to be conducted as disclosed in the SEC Documents.

(b) The Company is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

2.2 Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the issuance of the Securities) have been duly authorized by the Board and require no further consent or authorization of the Company, the Board or the Company’s stockholders. This Agreement has been duly executed by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as (a) enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally, (b) may be subject to general principles of equity and (c) rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities laws or public policy underlying such laws.

2.3 Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company, as of June 9, 2018, consisted of 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which 115,684,699 shares were issued and outstanding, 4,500,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, none of which were issued and outstanding and 500,000 shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, none of which were issued and outstanding. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. An aggregate of 2,961,579 shares of Common Stock, plus an additional number of shares of Common Stock with a value of $50 million (as will be determined based upon the June 20, 2018 closing price of the Common Stock), were issuable under restricted stock units validly granted under or pursuant to Equity Incentive Plans that were outstanding as of June 9, 2018 (the “Outstanding RSUs”). Other than the Outstanding RSUs and rights to purchase shares of the Common Stock under the Company’s 2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, no other equity-based awards or rights to purchase were outstanding as of June 9, 2018 under the Equity Incentive Plans, and the Company does not otherwise have outstanding any options to purchase, or any preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, any securities or obligations convertible into, or any contracts or commitments to issue or sell, shares of its capital stock or any such options, rights, convertible securities or obligations. The Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Organization, as amended (the “Articles of Organization”), as in effect on the date hereof and the Company’s Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) as in effect on the date hereof are each filed as exhibits to the SEC Documents.

2.4 Issuance of Shares. The Shares are duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances, other than restrictions on transfer provided for in this Agreement or imposed by applicable securities laws, and will not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser in this Agreement, the Securities will be issued in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal and state securities laws and the rules and regulations of NASDAQ.

2.5 No Conflicts; Government Consents and Permits.

(a) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the issuance of the Securities) will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of the Articles of Organization or Bylaws, (ii) violate or conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default under, any agreement, indenture, or instrument to which the Company is a party, or (iii) assuming that all filings, approvals and authorizations contemplated by subsection 2.5(b) below have been obtained or made, result in a violation of any Law applicable to the Company, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) only, for such conflicts, breaches, defaults, and violations as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company is not required to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or Governmental Authority or self-regulatory agency in order for the Company to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, including to issue and sell

the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, other than such as have been made or obtained, and except for (i) filings required under applicable Antitrust Laws and expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under applicable Antitrust Laws, (ii) any filings required to be made under federal or state securities laws, (iii) any required filings or notifications regarding the sale, issuance or listing of additional shares with NASDAQ.

2.6 SEC Documents . Since October 1, 2017, the Company has filed, furnished or otherwise transmitted in a timely manner all required reports, schedules, forms, statements, and other documents with the SEC that the Company was required to file under Section 13, 14(a), and 15(d) of the Exchange Act (the “SEC Documents”). As of their respective filing dates, or, if amended, as of the date of the last such amendment, each of the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters received from the SEC staff with respect to any of the SEC Documents, and to the knowledge of the Company, none of the SEC Documents are subject to ongoing SEC review.

2.7 Financial Statements . The financial statements of the Company included (or incorporated by reference) in the SEC Documents (including the notes thereto) comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments. Since September 30, 2017, the Company has not made any material change in the accounting practices and policies applied in the preparation of its financial statements, except as required by GAAP, SEC rule or policy or applicable Law. No financial statements of any Person other than the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries are required by GAAP to be included in the financial statements of the Company.

2.8 Internal Accounting and Disclosure Controls . The Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and that (a) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (b) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (c) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (d) the recorded accountability for assets is

compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are adequate and effective to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

The Company has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting prior to the date of this Agreement, to the Company’s auditors and audit committee and the Purchaser any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information.

The Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account and not with a view to, or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws. The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. The Purchaser does not currently have any agreement, plan or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute or effect any distribution of any of the Securities (or any securities which are derivatives thereof) to or through any person or entity; the Purchaser is not a registered broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act or an entity engaged in a business that would require it to be so registered as a broker-dealer.

3.2 Experience of Purchaser. The Purchaser, either alone or together with its Representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

3.3 Access to Information. The Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the SEC Documents and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the merits and risks of investing in the Securities and (ii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of the Purchaser or its Representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. The Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities.

3.4 Reliance on Exemptions. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to the Purchaser in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Securities.

The Purchaser is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

3.10 Authorization; Enforcement. The Purchaser has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into, to deliver and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by the Purchaser’s Board of Directors and no further consent or authorization of the Purchaser, its Board of Directors or its stockholders is required. This Agreement has been duly executed by the Purchaser and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as (a) enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally (b) may be subject to general principles of equity and (c) rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities laws or public policy underlying such laws.

3.11 No Conflicts; Government Consents and Permits.

(b) The Purchaser is not required to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or Governmental Authority or self-regulatory agency in order for the Purchaser to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, or to purchase the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, other than such as have been made or obtained, and except for (i) filings required under applicable Antitrust Laws and expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under applicable Antitrust Laws and (ii) any filings required to be made under federal or state securities laws.

3.12 Acquiring Person. Neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates beneficially owns, or will as of the Closing beneficially own (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act without regard for the number of days in which a Person has the right to acquire such beneficial ownership, and without regard to the Purchaser’s rights under this Agreement), any securities of the Company.

For the avoidance of doubt, an outright Transfer of Securities that does not violate clause (i) shall not violate clause (ii).

4.2 Permitted Transfers. Subject to Section 4.3, Holders may make the following permitted Transfers of Securities (each, a “Permitted Transfer”):

To the extent that any Transfer consists of, or includes, any pledge, hypothecation or other encumbrance, then such Transfer (including at the time of its initial granting) shall constitute a Permitted Transfer only if and to the extent that any foreclosure thereof (or assignment or other conveyance in lieu of foreclosure) would also qualify as a Permitted Transfer.

4.3 No Transfers to Company Competitors or Significant Shareholders. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall a Holder Transfer any Securities, during the Lock-Up Period, to (a) any PTC Competitor or (b) any Person that, to the knowledge of Holder after reasonable inquiry, after giving effect to such Transfer, would, together with such Person’s Affiliates, beneficially own 5% or more of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time of such Transfer and would be required under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to file a Schedule 13D with the SEC with respect to the Company; provided, however, that the restrictions in this Section 4.3 shall not apply to any Transfer of Shares (i) in an unsolicited open market transaction or (ii) pursuant to a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering, except that no Holder shall knowingly Transfer Shares to a PTC Competitor in a Marketed Underwritten Offering and any Holder Transferring Shares in a Marketed Underwritten Offering shall advise the Underwriters for such offering of the limitations on the Holder under this section.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any failure by a proposed Holder to execute a Joinder Agreement, such proposed Holder shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Holder, whether or not they so agree in writing.

4.5 Effect of Prohibited Transfer. If any Transfer is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, (a) such purported Transfer shall be void ab initio, (b) the Company shall have, in addition to all other legal or equitable remedies that it may have, the right to injunctive relief and specific performance to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, and (c) the Company shall have the right to refuse to recognize any transferee as a stockholder for any purpose.

4.6 Compliance with Laws.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 4, each Holder covenants that the Shares may be disposed of only (1) pursuant to an effective registration statement that is in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement or (2) under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state and federal securities laws.

(b) In connection with any transfer of the Shares other than (1) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (2) to the Company or (3) pursuant to Rule 144 (provided that the Purchaser provides the Company with reasonable assurances (in the form of seller and, if applicable, broker representation letters) that the Shares may be sold pursuant to such rule), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Shares under the Securities Act.

4.7 Legends. The Securities will bear restrictive instructions in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the book entries for such Securities):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS BOOK ENTRY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND ARE SUBJECT TO THE SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED JUNE 11, 2018, BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND ROCKWELL AUTOMATION, INC. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS. IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, THE COMPANY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS TRANSFER AGENT THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

ARTICLE 5

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

5.1 Board Designee.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Section 5.1, effective upon the Closing, the Board will (i) increase the size of the Board to create one vacancy and appoint a designee of the Purchaser (the “Purchaser Designee”), reasonably acceptable to the Board, as a director to fill such vacancy, with the Purchaser Designee having such voting and other rights consistent with those generally afforded to and held by other members of the Board, for a term expiring at the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders or such Purchaser Designee’s earlier resignation or removal and (ii) appoint such Purchaser Designee to the Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. The Company and the Purchaser agree that Blake Moret shall be the initial Purchaser Designee. The Company agrees that, during the Director Period, the Board shall nominate the individual serving as such Purchaser Designee (or any individual subsequently designated by the Purchaser to serve as the Purchaser Designee) for election or re-election, as the case may be, as a director at each subsequent meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which directors are to be elected and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Purchaser Designee to be elected or re-elected. So long as the Purchaser Designee is on the Board, the Board will appoint such Purchaser Designee to the Corporate Governance Committee. At the end of the Director Period, then the Purchaser shall cause the Purchaser Designee to tender to the Board, as soon as practicable and in any event within five (5) days following the end of the Director Period, his or her resignation from the Board, which the Board may accept or reject in its sole discretion. If the Board accepts the Purchaser Designee’s resignation, then the Company shall notify the Purchaser of the acceptance. Promptly following the date on which the Purchaser is required to provide a Competition Notice to the Company pursuant to Section 5.6(b)(ii) of the Strategic Alliance Agreement, the Purchaser shall cause the Purchaser Designee to tender to the Board, as soon as practicable and in any event within five (5) days following such event, his or her resignation from the Board and Purchaser shall designate a replacement Purchaser Designee, reasonably acceptable to the Board, that is “Independent” (as such term is defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2)) of Purchaser and its Affiliates; provided, that this requirement shall not apply if the Purchaser Designee then serving as a director is “Independent” (as such term is defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2)) of Purchaser and its Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, any replacement Purchaser Designee appointed pursuant to the preceding sentence shall have the same applicable rights and obligations (including related to the receipt of information and restrictions upon the use of such information) as a Purchaser Designee under this Agreement.

(b) Within five (5) days following the execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall provide the Company with the name and relevant background information of the proposed initial Purchaser Designee. As a condition to any appointment or nomination for election to the Board, each Purchaser Designee shall (i) meet the qualifications required of all directors of the Company by the Company’s Corporate Governance Committee and those mandated by applicable Law, (ii) to the extent that the Company so requires for all of its directors, agree, in writing, to be bound by the terms and conditions of all of the Company’s policies applicable to its directors, (iii) make such acknowledgements and enter into such

agreements as the Company requires of all directors, including, without limitation, with respect to confidentiality, the Company’s code of ethics, insider trading policy and Section 16 reporting procedures and (iv) be able to dedicate sufficient time and resources for the diligent performance of the duties required of a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and must not hold positions or interests that conflict with their responsibilities to the Company; provided that no Purchaser Designee shall be deemed to hold a position or interest that conflicts with his or her responsibilities to the Company solely by virtue of his or her position as an executive officer or a manager of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, and no agreement or policy applicable to the Purchaser Designee as a director will apply to Common Stock held by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

ARTICLE 10

INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will survive the Closing until the nine-month anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, that the Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing until the end of the applicable statute of limitations. The right of any party to assert a claim for indemnification relating to the breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to the extent required to be performed or complied with prior to the Closing Date will survive the Closing until the nine-month anniversary of the Closing Date. All covenants contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with in whole or in part after the Closing Date shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations or for such shorter period specified in this Agreement. All claims for indemnification under this Agreement must be asserted pursuant to a written claim notice given prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 10.1

10.2 Company Indemnification. Subject to Section 10.1, from and after the Closing, the Company will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents (the “Purchaser Indemnitees”), against any and all Actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses (including diminution of value of the Shares issued to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement (but only to the extent such losses result from the matter which caused such inaccuracy, misrepresentation or breach referred to in clause (i) or (ii)), costs, penalties, fees, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee as a result of or arising out of (i) any inaccuracy in or misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case of a breach of the Fundamental Representations, the Company will have no duty to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees for Indemnified Liabilities pursuant to clause (i) unless and until the aggregate Indemnified Liabilities for which it would otherwise be liable under this Agreement exceed on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $15.0 million (at which point the Company will be liable for such Indemnified Liabilities only to the extent of such excess over $15.0 million); provided, that, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the maximum aggregate amount of Indemnified Liabilities that may be recovered from the Company by all Purchaser Indemnitees, taken as a whole, shall be $100,000,000.

10.3 Purchaser Indemnification. Subject to Section 10.1, from and after the Closing, the Purchaser will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents (the “Company Indemnitees”), against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by any Company Indemnitee as a result of or arising out of (i) any inaccuracy in or misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement or (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser will not have any duty to indemnify

the Company Indemnitees for Indemnified Liabilities pursuant to clause (i) unless and until the aggregate Indemnified Liabilities for which it would otherwise be liable under this Agreement exceed on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $15.0 million (at which point the Purchaser will be liable for such Indemnified Liabilities only to the extent of such excess over $15.0 million); provided, that, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the maximum aggregate amount of Indemnified Liabilities that may be recovered from the Purchaser by all Company Indemnitees, taken as a whole, shall be $100,000,000.

10.4 Materiality. For purposes of determining (i) whether there has been a breach of any representation or warranty or failure of any representation or warranty to be true and correct and (ii) the amount of Indemnified Liabilities arising from such breach or failure, all limitations or qualifications as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other term of similar import or effect, except in Section 2.10(b), shall be disregarded.

10.5 Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnification provisions contained in this Article 10 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that nothing contained in this Agreement will preclude or otherwise affect the rights of the Purchaser to assert claims against the Company in respect of remedies under securities laws that cannot be waived as a matter of law or for fraud. Nothing contained in this Agreement will preclude or otherwise affect the rights of the Company to assert claims against the Purchaser for fraud.

10.6 Notice. No claim may be asserted against either party for breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein, unless written notice of such claim is received by such party, describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim on or prior to the date on which the representation, warranty or covenant on which such claim is based ceases to survive as set forth in Section 10.1.

10.7 No Duplication of Recovery. Any Loss for which any Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article 10 shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the fact that the state of facts giving rise to such Indemnified Liability would allow for recovery under more than one provision of Section 10.2 or Section 10.3, as the case may be.

10.8 Procedures.

(a) In order for a Purchaser Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement as a result of a Indemnified Liability or a claim or demand made by any Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall deliver notice thereof to the party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 10.6. The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 10 except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification provisions and procedures contained in this Article 10 shall apply only to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants under this Agreement and shall not apply to any other agreement or instrument entered into between Purchaser and the Company.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim, and which releases the Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(c) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim in accordance with Section 10.6. The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 10 except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure.

10.9 Assignment of Claims. If any Purchaser Indemnitee receives any payment from the Company in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 10.2 and the Purchaser Indemnitee could have recovered all or a part of such Indemnified Liabilities from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying claim asserted against the Company, the Purchaser Indemnitee shall assign, on a non-recourse basis and without any representation or warranty, such of its rights to proceed against the Potential Contributor as are necessary to permit the Company to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment. If any such assignment would afford the Potential Contributor any defense to the payment of the same, such assignment shall not take place and the Purchaser Indemnitee will, at the Company’s direction and expense, take all reasonable actions to seek to recover such claim from such Potential Contributor. Any payment received in respect of such claim against the Potential Contributor (whether by the Company’s or the relevant Purchaser Indemnitee as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) shall be distributed, (i) first, to the Purchaser Indemnitee in the amount of any deductible or similar amount required to be paid by the Purchaser Indemnitee prior to the Company being required to make any payment to the Purchaser Indemnitee plus, in the case of any claim by a Purchaser Indemnitee as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim, (ii) second, to the Company in an amount equal to the aggregate payments made by the Company to the Purchaser Indemnitee in respect of such claim, plus the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim, and (iii) the balance, if any, to the Purchaser Indemnitee.

2.	Resale Shelf Registration Rights.

2.1 Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. Not later than [ ]¹, 2019, the Company shall file with the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act covering all of the Registrable Securities registering the resale on a delayed or continuous basis of all such Registrable Securities by Rockwell (a “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”). If the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), then the Company shall file the Resale Shelf Registration Statement in the form of an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) or any successor form thereto. If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is not an automatic shelf registration statement, then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Resale Shelf Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act promptly following the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement. The Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, including by filing any necessary post-effective amendments and/or replacement shelf registration statements and prospectus supplements, during the Effectiveness Period; provided that the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement need not be maintained for the purposes of registering the resale of securities that no longer constitute Registrable Securities or at any time when the Company is not

¹	Note to Draft: To insert date that is one year from the execution of this Agreement.

eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any similar or successor form) for the purpose of registering the resale of the Registrable Securities. However, if the Company shall at any time before the Termination Date become ineligible to file or use a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any similar or successor form), then the Company shall promptly file with the SEC a shelf registration statement covering all of the Registrable Securities on Form S-1 (or any similar or successor form) and use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act promptly following its filing. The Company will thereafter maintain the effectiveness of that registration statement, amending and replacing it as appropriate (and it shall be a Resale Shelf Registration Statement within the meaning of this Agreement), and amending and supplementing the prospectus included therein and related thereto, throughout the Effectiveness Period. The Company’s obligations under this Section 2 shall extend to and include Form S-1 registration of the Registrable Securities to the same extent that such obligations apply to Form S-3 registration of the Registrable Securities.

2.2 Notification and Distribution of Materials. The Company shall notify Rockwell in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and shall furnish to Rockwell, without charge, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as Rockwell may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement.

2.3 Amendments and Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC from time to time such amendments and/or replacement shelf registration statements and supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period.

2.4 Notice of Certain Events. The Company shall promptly notify Rockwell in writing of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement to, or additional information in connection with, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement required to be prepared and filed hereunder (or Prospectus relating thereto). The Company shall promptly notify Rockwell in writing of the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (or the Prospectus relating thereto) or any amendment or supplement related thereto or any post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and/or replacement shelf registration statement and of the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment and/or replacement shelf registration statement.

2.5 Notice of Underwritten Offering. At any time that a Resale Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if Rockwell delivers a notice to the Company (a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that it intends to sell all or part of its Registrable Securities using the Resale Shelf Registration Statement in a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering, then the Company shall amend or supplement the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering; provided, that no more than one Marketed Underwritten

Shelf Offering may be conducted during any 90-day period. For the avoidance of doubt, Registrable Securities may be offered and sold using the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, subject to Section 3, even when Rockwell is not permitted by the terms of this Section 2.5 to conduct a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering.

2.6 Selection of Underwriter. In the event of a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering, Rockwell shall select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) that will serve as managing underwriters (including which such managing underwriters will serve as lead or co-lead) and underwriters with respect to the offering of such Registrable Securities; provided, that such investment banker(s) and manager(s) shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

2.7 Registration Procedures.

The above shall be done at each closing under such underwriting or similar agreement, or as and to the extent required thereunder;

(vii) in connection with an underwritten offering, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain for the underwriter(s) (A) opinions of counsel for the Company, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such underwriters, and (B) “comfort” letters and updates thereof (or, in the case of any such Person which does not satisfy the conditions for receipt of a “comfort” letter specified in Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72, an “agreed upon procedures” letter) signed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements included in such Resale Shelf Registration Statement, covering the matters customarily covered in “comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings;

(viii) make available for inspection by Rockwell, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to any Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent or Representative retained in connection with such offering by Rockwell or each such underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably necessary, or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested, to enable them to exercise due diligence in connection with such Registration Statement, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to supply all information in each case reasonably requested by any such Representative, underwriter, attorney, agent or accountant in connection with such Registration

(ix) as promptly as practicable notify in writing Rockwell and the underwriters, if any, of the following events: (A) the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, any amendment thereto, the prospectus or any prospectus supplement related thereto or post-effective amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and/or replacement shelf registration statement or any Free Writing Prospectus utilized in connection therewith, and, with respect to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto and/or replacement shelf registration statement, when the same has become effective; (B) the receipt of any written comments from the SEC or any request by the SEC or any other U.S. or state Governmental Authority for amendments or supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus or for additional information; (C) when the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or any amendment thereto becomes effective; (D) the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings by any Person for that purpose; (E) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose; (F) if at any time the representations and warranties of the Company contained in any mutual agreement (including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 2.7(a)(viii) cease to be true and correct in any material respect; and (G) upon the happening of any event that makes any statement made in such Resale Shelf Registration Statement or related prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in such Resale Shelf Registration Statement, prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, it will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the prospectus, it will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, in the case of clause (G), that such notice need not include the nature or details concerning such event;

(x) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction at the earliest reasonable practicable date, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to (A) qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of this clause (x) be obligated to be so qualified, (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(xii) have appropriate officers of the Company prepare and make presentations at a reasonable number of “road shows” and before analysts and rating agencies, as the case may be, and other information meetings reasonably organized by the underwriters, take other actions to obtain ratings for any Registrable Securities (if they are eligible to be rated) and otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate as reasonably requested by Rockwell and the underwriter(s) in the offering, marketing and selling of the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the scheduling of any such “road shows” and other meetings shall not unduly interfere with the normal operations of the business of the Company;

(xiv) take all other actions reasonably requested by Rockwell or the lead managing underwriter(s) to effect the intent of this Agreement.

3.	Suspension of Registration Requirement; Market Standstill.

3.1 The Company shall promptly notify Rockwell in writing of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement as promptly as reasonably possible and promptly notify in writing Rockwell of the withdrawal of any such order.

3.2 At any time when a Prospectus relating to a Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act to a transferee, the Company shall notify Rockwell (A) of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, in such event, (B) to suspend sales of Registrable Securities, and Rockwell will refrain from selling any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement until Rockwell is advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. In such event, unless such event constitutes a Suspension Event (as defined

below), the Company shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after giving such notice to the Company, prepare and file a supplement to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as supplemented or amended, such Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The Company shall, if necessary, promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after giving such notice, amend the Registration Statement of which such Prospectus is a part to reflect such amendment or supplement. The Company shall promptly notify Rockwell in writing when the current Prospectus may be used.

3.3 Subject to the terms of Section 4, the Company’s obligation under this Agreement to file, amend or supplement a Registration Statement, or to cause a Registration Statement, or any filings with any state securities commission, to become effective, shall be deferred, for one or more reasonable periods, each of which may not exceed forty-five (45) days, if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that such deferral is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders in order to avoid the disclosure of information not otherwise then required by Law (in the absence of a registration or sales thereunder) to be publicly disclosed (such circumstances being hereinafter referred to as a “Suspension Event”). The Company shall notify Rockwell of the existence of any Suspension Event by promptly delivering to Rockwell a certificate signed by an executive officer of the Company (“Suspension Event Certificate”) stating that a Suspension Event has occurred and is continuing and setting forth the duration of such Suspension Event (not to exceed forty-five (45) days from delivery of the Suspension Event Certificate) or, if such duration is not known, the anticipated duration of such Suspension Event (not to exceed forty-five (45) days from the delivery of the Suspension Event Certificate). If the Suspension Event Certificate does not set forth a definitive duration of the Suspension Event, then upon the earlier of (i) forty-five (45) days following delivery of the Suspension Event Certificate or (ii) the conclusion of the Suspension Event, the Company shall notify Rockwell in writing of the termination of the Suspension Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be entitled to give notice of a second or subsequent Suspension Event until at least one hundred twenty (120) days has passed from the expiration of the immediately preceding Suspension Event.

3.4 Subject to the terms of Section 4, Rockwell agrees, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in a Company-initiated underwritten offering of Common Stock registered under the Securities Act (each, a “Company Offering”), not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of the Registrable Securities during an Offering Blackout Period (as defined below), provided that the Company is actively employing commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement associated with such Offering Blackout Period to be effective, if it has not already become effective; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall apply to Rockwell for a Company Offering only if and to the extent that all directors and executive officers of the Company are subject to the same restriction for that Company Offering. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give written notice to Rockwell of any Offering Blackout Period at least fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement of the Offering Blackout Period; provided, however, that if the Company is unable to provide fifteen (15) days advance notice of the commencement of the Offering Blackout Period, the Company shall provide as much notice as reasonably possible, and provided further that the failure to timely provide such notice shall not in any way prohibit the

commencement of an Offering Blackout Period. The “Offering Blackout Period” shall commence on a date set by the Company, which shall be no earlier than the fifth (5th) day preceding the anticipated date of pricing of such Company Offering, and shall end on the ninetieth (90^th) day, or such sooner date as is requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters of such Company Offering, after the closing date of such Company Offering.

4. Limitations on Suspension/Blackout Periods. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company covenants and agrees that (a) the Company’s rights to defer certain of its obligations pursuant to Section 3.3 during the pendency of any Suspension Event, and (b) Rockwell’s obligation to suspend public sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.4 during one or more Offering Blackout Periods shall not, in the aggregate, cause Rockwell to be required to suspend sales of Registrable Securities or relieve the Company of its obligation to file a Registration Statement for longer than sixty (60) days, and an Offering Blackout Period may not be called more than once in any period of twelve (12) consecutive months.

5. Termination of Registration Rights. The rights granted pursuant to Section 2 shall terminate, as to Rockwell, at such time at which Rockwell no longer holds any Registrable Securities.

6. State Securities Laws and Sale Procedures.

6.1 The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file documents required of the Company for normal blue sky clearance in states specified in writing by Rockwell; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or consent to service of process in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or has not so consented.

6.2 Rockwell agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Registrable Securities that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act other than transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or as contemplated in a Registration Statement.

7. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Rockwell and Rockwell’s officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each Person, if any, that controls Rockwell within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each other Person, if any, subject to liability because of his, her or its connection with Rockwell (each, an “Indemnitee”), against any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including without limitation reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of or based upon (i) any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or state securities laws and relating to action or inaction required of the Company under the terms of this Agreement or in connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus; (ii) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any Prospectus; (iii) an omission to state or alleged omission to state in any Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (iv) an omission to state or alleged omission to state in a Prospectus a

material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to such Indemnitee or any Person who participates as an underwriter or as a Representative of an underwriter in the offering or sale of Registrable Securities or any other Person who controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, in any such case, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, action, liability, cost or expense (each, a “Loss”) arises out of or is based upon (a) an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in such Registration Statement or in any such Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with information regarding such Indemnitee or its plan of distribution or ownership interests that was furnished in writing to the Company expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein by such Indemnitee, (b) Rockwell’s failure to send or give a copy of the final, amended or supplemented prospectus furnished to Rockwell by the Company at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act to the Person claiming an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission if such statement or omission was corrected in such final, amended or supplemented Prospectus, or (c) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement contained in any offer made by Rockwell relating to the Registrable Securities that constitutes a Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of Rockwell. The foregoing indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by any Person and shall survive the sale of all securities registered pursuant to Section 2.

8. Covenants of Rockwell. Rockwell hereby agrees (i) to cooperate with the Company and to furnish to the Company the information concerning Rockwell, its plan of distribution and its ownership interests in securities of the Company in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement or Prospectus with respect to Rockwell’s Registrable Securities and any filings with any state securities commissions as the Company may reasonably request (and to promptly notify the Company of any material changes in such information set forth in a Registration Statement prior to and during the effectiveness of such Registration Statement), (ii) that it will not make any offer relating to the Registrable Securities that would constitute a Free Writing Prospectus, and (iii) to indemnify the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each Person, if any, that controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each other Person, if any, subject to liability because of his, her or its connection with the Company, against any and all Losses arising out of or based upon (A) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in either such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein, an omission or alleged omission to state in such Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or an omission or alleged omission to state in such Prospectus a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, if and to the extent that such statement or omission occurs from reliance upon and in conformity with information regarding Rockwell or its plan of distribution or its ownership interests that was furnished in writing to the Company by Rockwell expressly for use therein, or (B) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement contained in any offer made by Rockwell relating to the Registrable Securities that constitutes a Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of Rockwell. The foregoing indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by any Person and shall survive the sale of all securities registered pursuant to Section 2.

9. Indemnification Procedures. Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation of which such Person has actual knowledge and with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made hereunder, but the failure of any indemnified party to provide such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except and only to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby, and shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than hereunder. In case any action or proceeding is brought against an indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and, unless in the indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest exists in respect of such Loss, to assume and direct the defense thereof, to the extent that it so chooses, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party that it chooses to assume and direct the defense of such an action, proceeding or investigation, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, provided that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person within a reasonable time, (C) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, or (D) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person, but shall always be permitted to participate in such defense. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim, (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party and (iii) does not and is not likely to materially adversely affect the indemnified party.

10. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 7 or 8 shall for any reason be unavailable in respect of any Loss, then, in lieu of the amount paid or payable thereunder, the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and of the other Persons indemnifying or indemnified for such Losses with respect to the statements, omissions or actions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the

other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Parties agree that it would not be necessarily equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section. The amount contributed by an Indemnitee shall on no account exceed the proceeds of the resale of Registrable Securities by such Indemnitee. In addition, no Person shall be obligated to contribute amounts under this Section 10 in payment for any settlement of any Loss effected without such Person’s consent. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedy provided for in this Section is not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

11. Expenses and Payments. The Company shall bear all expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2 and the administration of the registration program hereunder, including (i) all registration and filing fees, all Nasdaq listing fees for the Shares, and any other fees and expenses associated with filings required to be made with the SEC or FINRA, (ii) all fees and expenses in connection with compliance with any securities or “Blue Sky” laws, (iii) all printing, duplicating, word processing, messenger, telephone, facsimile and delivery expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for the Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and of printing prospectuses), (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and of Rockwell and of all independent certified public accountants of the Company (including the expenses of any special audit and cold comfort letters required by or incident to such performance), (v) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to any “road show” for an offering, including all travel, meals and lodging, and (vi) all of the Company’s internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties); but excluding all fees and disbursements of underwriters customarily paid by sellers of securities and all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities. All expenses relating to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities not to be borne by the Company pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be borne and paid by Rockwell. The payments required by Section 7, 8 and 10 shall be made periodically during the course of any action, proceeding or investigation, as and when any Loss is incurred.

12. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation nor liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to assign any right, remedy, obligation or liability hereunder without such consent shall be void; provided, however, that Rockwell may assign any or all of its rights hereunder to any Affiliate so long as such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms hereof. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

13. No Other Obligation to Register. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to Rockwell to register the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act.

14. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to (a) make and keep adequate current public information available pursuant to paragraph (c) of Rule 144 and (b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act.

15. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, or if by facsimile or e mail, upon written confirmation of receipt by facsimile, e mail or otherwise, (b) on the first Business Day following the date of dispatch if delivered utilizing a next-day service by a recognized next-day courier or (c) on the earlier of confirmed receipt or the fifth Business Day following the date of mailing if delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

PTC and Rockwell Automation Announce Strategic Partnership to Drive

Industrial Innovation and Accelerate Growth

Rockwell Automation to Make $1B Equity Investment in PTC

Companies to Showcase Combined Offering

During Live TechEd Webcast Today at 8:00 am PT / 11:00 am ET

NEEDHAM, Mass. and MILWAUKEE, Wis. – June 11, 2018 – PTC Inc. (NASDAQ: PTC) and Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE: ROK) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement for a strategic partnership that is expected to accelerate growth for both companies and enable them to be the partner of choice for customers around the world who want to transform their physical operations with digital technology. As part of the partnership, Rockwell Automation will make a $1 billion equity investment in PTC, and Rockwell Automation’s Chairman and CEO, Blake Moret, will join PTC’s board of directors effective with the closing of the equity transaction.

The partnership leverages both companies’ resources, technologies, industry expertise, and market presence, and will include technical collaboration across the organizations as well as joint global go-to-market initiatives. In particular, PTC and Rockwell Automation have agreed to align their respective smart factory technologies and combine PTC’s award-winning ThingWorx^® IoT, Kepware^® industrial connectivity, and Vuforia^® augmented reality (AR) platforms with Rockwell Automation’s best-in-class FactoryTalk^® MES, FactoryTalk Analytics, and Industrial Automation platforms. The result will be an unmatched integrated information solution that will enable customers to achieve increased productivity, heightened plant efficiency, reduced operational risk, and better system interoperability.

“This strategic alliance will provide the industry with the broadest integrated suite of best-in-class technology, backed by PTC, the leader in IoT and augmented reality, and Rockwell Automation, the leader in industrial automation and information. Our combined customer base will benefit from two world-class organizations that understand their business and deliver comprehensive, innovative, and integrated solutions,” said Jim Heppelmann, President and CEO, PTC. “Leveraging Rockwell Automation’s industry-leading industrial control and software technology, strong brand, and domain expertise with PTC’s award-winning technology enables industrial enterprises to capitalize on the promise of the industrial IoT. I am incredibly excited about this partnership and the opportunity it provides to fuel our future success.”

Blake Moret, Chairman and CEO, Rockwell Automation, said, “We believe this strategic partnership will enable us to accelerate growth by building on both companies’ records of innovation to extend the value of the Connected Enterprise and deepen our customer relationships. As IT and OT converge, there is a natural alignment between our companies.

Together, we will offer the most comprehensive and flexible IoT offering in the industrial space. Our equity investment in PTC reflects our confidence in the partnership and the significant upside we expect it to create for both companies as we work together to profitably grow subscription revenue.”

Rockwell Automation’s solutions business will be a preferred delivery and implementation provider, supported by a robust ecosystem of partners that both companies have established. The strength of both companies across geographies, end markets, and applications is complementary.

Terms

Under the terms of the agreement relating to the equity investment, Rockwell Automation will make a $1 billion equity investment in PTC by acquiring 10,582,010 newly issued shares at a price of $94.50, representing an approximate 8.4% ownership interest in PTC based on PTC’s current outstanding shares pro forma for the share issuance to Rockwell Automation. The price per share represents an 8.6% premium to PTC’s closing stock price on June 8, 2018, the last trading day prior to today’s announcement. Rockwell Automation intends to fund the investment through a combination of cash on hand and commercial paper borrowings. Rockwell Automation will account for its ownership interest in PTC as an Available for Sale security, reported at fair value.

PTC and Rockwell Automation Share Repurchases

PTC intends to use the proceeds from the equity investment to repurchase stock to offset dilution.

As separately announced today, Rockwell Automation is increasing its share repurchase target for fiscal year 2018 to $1.5 billion. This represents a $300 million increase to its previous plans to repurchase $1.2 billion of its stock in fiscal year 2018.

Timing

The investment transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, and is expected to close within 60 days.
