Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On November 15, 2022, the Company filed the Original Form 8-K to disclose transition plans for its Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) position. The Company announced that Robert C. Crisci, who has served as CFO since 2017, will transition from the CFO role on February 1, 2023, and that Jason P. Conley, the Company’s current Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, will become the Company’s new CFO on February 1, 2023.
(e) This Current Report on Form 8-K/A hereby amends the Original Form 8-K to disclose that, on December 13, 2022, the Company and Mr. Crisci entered into a Separation Agreement and Full and Final Release (the “Separation Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Crisci will resign as CFO as of January 31, 2023 (the “Separation Date”) and has agreed to a customary release of claims against the Company. In addition, Mr. Crisci will (i) continue to receive his current base salary through the Separation Date, (ii) be eligible to receive employee benefits through the Separation Date, and (iii) be eligible to receive an incentive cash bonus for 2022 dependent on Company performance. The Company will also continue to pay the lease obligation on his vehicle until the earlier of the lease expiration or the end of the term of the Service Provider Agreement (as defined below). The Separation Agreement also provides that in the event Mr. Crisci timely elects and pays for health insurance coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), his COBRA premium will be the amount he would have paid under the Company’s group health and welfare plans had he remained an active employee.
On December 13, 2022, the Company and Mr. Crisci also entered into a Service Provider Agreement (the “Service Provider Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Crisci has agreed to be available to provide services to the Company for not more than seven hours per week until January 31, 2025. Under the Service Provider Agreement, Mr. Crisci will receive a bi-monthly salary of $16,292.67 for 24 months commencing February 1, 2023 (representing aggregate salary payments of $782,000.16). Mr. Crisci will also retain any equity awards previously granted to him that are capable of vesting at any time prior to January 31, 2025, and such awards will continue to be governed by the respective award agreements.
The above summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Separation Agreement and the Service Provider Agreement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 10.1
SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND FULL AND FINAL RELEASE
This Separation Agreement and Full and Final Release (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between Robert Crisci (“Employee”) and Roper Technologies, Inc. (“Company”). Employee and the Company are both parties to this Agreement and are collectively referred to herein as the “Parties.” The Parties desire to enter into this Agreement to fully resolve all questions of compensation, entitlement to benefits, and any and all other claims, whether known or unknown, which the Parties may have relating to Employee’s employment with, and separation from, the Company.
Employee acknowledges, understands and agrees that Employee’s active employment as EVP, Chief Financial Officer of the Company will terminate on January 31, 2023 (“Separation Date”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for the consideration described in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows:
1.Definitions. As used in this Agreement, any reference to Employee shall include Employee’s attorneys, heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors, agents and assigns. Any reference to the Company shall include itself, its predecessors, successors, controlling or related entities, affiliates, divisions, parents, subsidiaries, managing agents, and joint ventures, and, in their capacities as such, all of their past, present and future representatives, agents, assigns, attorneys, directors, officers, partners, shareholders and employees.
2.Full and Final Release. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the consideration provided under this Agreement represents valuable consideration that the Company is not obligated to provide Employee and is greater than the consideration to which Employee would have been entitled from any source or agreement with the Company upon Employee’s termination from employment with the Company. Except as to the promises made in this Agreement, and in consideration of the benefits provided by the Company, Employee hereby fully, forever, irrevocably and unconditionally releases, settles and discharges the Company from any and all manner of claims, charges, complaints, debts, liabilities, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, rights, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, omissions, damages, obligations and expenses of any kind, whether known or unknown, which Employee has, had, or may have against the Company or any Company-sponsored employee benefit plans arising from, or relating in any way to, Employee's employment relationship with the Company occurring through the date Employee signs this Agreement. Specifically included in this waiver and release are, among other things, any and all claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Florida Civil Rights Act of 1992, as well as any other federal, state or local statutes, and any claims under common law including but not limited to claims in tort, for breach of contract, or for wrongful discharge.
Employee agrees to release and discharge the Company not only from any and all claims or causes of action which Employee could make on Employee’s own behalf, but also those that may or could be brought by any person or organization on Employee’s behalf, and Employee specifically waives any right to become, and promises not to become, a member of any class in
Page 1 of 10
any proceeding or case in which any such claim or cause of action against the Company may arise, in whole or in part, from any event which occurred on or before the date of this Agreement.
It is expressly agreed and understood that this is a GENERAL RELEASE.
Nothing in this Agreement is intended to release or waive: (i) rights or claims that may arise after the date of Employee’s execution of this Agreement; (ii) Employee’s entitlement to vested benefits under any retirement plan or other ERISA-covered benefit plan provided by the Company (including the Roper Industries, Inc. Non-Qualified Retirement Plan, amended and restated effective January 1, 2013); (iii) any rights Employee may have under state unemployment and/or workers’ compensation laws; (iv) claims which by law cannot be released by private agreement; (v) any rights to indemnification and advancement under the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or any of its subsidiaries’ respective bylaws or similar governing or organizational documents); (vi) any rights or claims under the indemnification agreement, dated as of November 7, 2018, entered into by and between the Company and Employee (as an Indemnitee thereunder); and/or (vii) any rights to expense reimbursements to which Employee is entitled under applicable Company policies but which remain unpaid.
Employee agrees, on or within ten (10) days following the expiration of the term of the Service Provider Agreement referenced below, to execute and deliver to the Company the Separation Date Affirmation attached hereto as Exhibit B.
3.Warranties. Employee represents and warrants that: (a) Employee has been paid and/or has received all compensation and benefits of any kind (including wages, salary, vacation, paid time off, commissions, bonuses, incentive compensation and equity participation) that Employee earned and/or to which Employee may be entitled as a result of Employee’s employment by the Company, including pay for all hours worked, and the Company owes Employee, and shall owe Employee, no further compensation or benefits of any kind, except as described in this Agreement; (b) Employee has been properly provided any leave of absence because of Employee’s or a family member’s health condition or military service, and Employee has not been subjected to any improper treatment, conduct, or actions due to a request for or taking of such leave; (c) Employee has already reported to the Company and/or filed workers’ compensation claims for any and all on-the-job injuries Employee suffered while employed by the Company, and that Employee has not suffered any on-the-job injuries for which Employee has not already filed a workers’ compensation claim; (d) Employee has provided the Company with written notice of any and all concerns regarding suspected ethical and compliance issues or violations on the part of the Company; (e) Employee has reported any pending judicial or administrative complaints, claims, or actions filed against the Company or any other Released Parties; and (f) Employee has not raised a claim, including but not limited to, unlawful discrimination; harassment; sexual harassment, abuse, assault or other criminal conduct; or retaliation in a court or government agency proceeding, in an alternative dispute resolution forum, or through the Company’s internal complaint process, involving the Company.
4.Consideration. In consideration for this Agreement and Employee’s release and other promises set forth herein, the Company shall provide the following incentives to Employee:
Page 2 of 10
(a)Employee will continue to receive his current base salary through the Separation Date.
(b)Employee will continue to be eligible to receive all employee benefits generally available to Company employees through the Separation Date.
(c)Employee shall be eligible to receive a bonus only for 2022 at the same target percentage of base salary currently in place (subject to all required tax withholdings) dependent on Company performance payable when 2022 Company bonuses are paid which is anticipated to be the end of the first quarter of 2023, and if later than March 15, 2023, such bonus shall be paid during the 2023 calendar year (subject, in all cases, to Employee’s eligibility with respect thereto).
(d)The Company will continue to pay the lease payment obligation on Employee’s vehicle through the earlier of: (i) the lease expiration; or (ii) end of the term of the Service Provider Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, and after January 31, 2023, Employee shall be solely responsible for all operating costs associated with the vehicle
(e)As of the Separation Date, Employee shall no longer be eligible to participate in the Company’s group health and welfare plans as an active employee participant and the Separation Date shall be considered a “qualifying event” for purposes of triggering Employee’s right to continue his group health and dental insurance pursuant to federal law (commonly referred to as “COBRA”). If Employee elects COBRA, the Company agrees that his COBRA premium shall be the amount that Employee would have paid under the Company’s group health and welfare plans had he remained an active employee of the Company. Employee authorizes the Company to withhold such COBRA premium payments from payments made under the Service Provider Agreement referenced below, and the Company shall, on behalf of Employee, timely make such COBRA premium payments as and when required to maintain coverage.
(f)Company and Employee shall enter into the Service Provider Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

This letter is to confirm the terms of your service provider agreement with Roper Technologies Inc. (“Roper” or the “Company”), under the terms and conditions set forth below (the “Agreement”):
1.Term and Duties. This Agreement will be effective on February 1, 2023 (the “Effective Date”) and will continue until January 31, 2025 (the “term of the Agreement”). During the term of the Agreement (approximately 104 weeks), you agree to be available to render services to the Company for (and not more than) seven (7) hours per week (for a total of 728 hours during the term of the Agreement) including, without limitation, responding to questions and providing assistance as needed with respect to your prior duties as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, as well as performing other tasks and special projects that may be requested of you including, without limitation, providing advice on capital deployment by the Company.
2.Compensation. During the term of the Agreement, you will be paid a bimonthly salary of $16,291.67, less all standard tax and other applicable withholdings commencing with the Company’s first payroll period ending after February 1, 2023. For avoidance of doubt, the aggregate salary you will receive for the twenty-four (24) months of your employment under this Agreement will be $782,000.16 (less all standard tax and applicable withholdings). You will receive a W-2 tax form with respect to this compensation at such time as the Company issues its W-2 forms. Except for expense reimbursements to which you are entitled under applicable Company policies and payments in respect of your leased vehicle pursuant to the Separation Agreement to which this Agreement is attached, you will not be eligible for any other benefits provided by the Company to its regular employees, and you hereby waive participation in the Company’s employee benefit plans otherwise provided to the Company’s regular employees.
3.Equity. For avoidance of doubt, during the term of the Agreement, by reason of your service under the Agreement, your “Continuous Status as a Participant” and eligibility to vest will continue for purposes of any equity awards of the Company previously granted to you that are capable of vesting at any time prior to or on January 31, 2025 by reason of your “Continuous Status as a Participant” through the applicable vesting date. Further, for avoidance of doubt, all such equity awards and the agreements by which they were granted shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and options shall expire as per the terms of their respective award agreements.
Service Provider Agreement Page 1
4.Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Assignment. You agree that any agreements that you executed during your employment with the Company, including equity award letters, which contain confidentiality and intellectual property assignment provisions will remain in effect and apply to the services you provide to the Company pursuant to this Agreement.
5.Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the terms and conditions of your work as a service provider to the Company and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous communications, agreements and understandings, written or oral, with respect to the terms and conditions of your work as a service provider to the Company. The Agreement does not supersede the Separation Agreement to which this Agreement is attached. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, and no breach shall be deemed waived, unless agreed to in writing by you and an expressly authorized representative of the Company.
