This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Fortive Corporation (“Fortive”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 28, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and Amendment No. 3 to the Issuer Tender Offer Statement, filed with the SEC on September 5, 2018, September 14, 2018 and September 24, 2018, respectively (as so amended, the “Schedule TO”).

This Schedule TO relates to the offer by Fortive to exchange all shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Newco common stock”), of Stevens Holding Company, Inc. (“Newco”) for shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Fortive (“Fortive common stock”) that are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer (as defined below).

Promptly following consummation of the Exchange Offer, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (“Altra”) named McHale Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), will be merged with and into Newco, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and Newco will continue as the surviving company (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each outstanding share of Newco common stock (except for shares of Newco common stock held by Fortive, Newco, Altra or Merger Sub) will be converted into the right to receive one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Altra (“Altra common stock”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus, dated August 28, 2018 (the “Prospectus”), the Letter of Transmittal and the Exchange and Transmittal Information Booklet, copies of which were previously filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii), respectively to the Schedule TO (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Exchange Offer”).

In connection with the Exchange Offer, Newco has filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), a registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-224754) (the “Registration Statement”) to register the shares of Newco common stock offered in exchange for shares of Fortive common stock tendered in the Exchange Offer. Altra has filed under the Securities Act a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-224750) to register the shares of Altra common stock into which shares of Newco common stock will be converted in the Merger.

This Amendment No. 4 shall be read together with the Schedule TO. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 4 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO.

Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.

Item 4(a) of the Schedule TO, which incorporates by reference the information contained in the Exchange Offer, is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

The Exchange Offer expired at 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on September 26, 2018. Based on a preliminary count by the exchange agent as of the expiration time, approximately 128,941,860 shares of Fortive common stock were tendered for exchange, including 61,048,910 shares that were tendered by notice of guaranteed delivery and an estimated 1,044,987 shares tendered by odd-lot shareholders (excluding certain plan participants in Fortive savings plans). Because the Exchange Offer is oversubscribed, Fortive intends to accept only a portion of the number of shares of Fortive common stock that were tendered (except for tenders of odd–lots), on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of shares tendered. Fortive intends to accept for exchange 15,824,931 shares of Fortive common stock in exchange for 35,000,000 shares of Newco common stock held by Fortive. Based on the preliminary results, if all shares tendered by notice of guaranteed delivery are delivered under the terms of the Exchange Offer, the estimated preliminary proration factor applied to tendered shares of Fortive common stock (i.e., the percentage of tendered shares that will be accepted) is approximately 11.56%. The preliminary proration factor is subject to change. Fortive will not be able to determine the final proration factor until the delivery of shares of Fortive common stock tendered by guaranteed delivery is completed, which Fortive expects to be at 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on September 28, 2018. Fortive will publicly announce the final proration factor after it has been determined, which may be different from this preliminary estimate.

On September 26, 2018, Fortive issued a press release announcing the preliminary results of the Exchange Offer, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(4)(xxv) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
