After analyzing the Company’s contingent liabilities on a gross basis and, based upon past experience with resolution of its product liability and employment practices claims and the limits of the primary, excess, and umbrella liability insurance coverages that are available with respect to pending claims, management believes that adequate provision has been made to cover any potential liability not covered by insurance, and that the ultimate liability, if any, arising from these actions should not have a material adverse effect on Roper’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Roper or its subsidiaries have been named defendants along with numerous industrial companies in asbestos-related litigation claims in certain U.S. states. No significant resources have been required by Roper to respond to these cases and Roper believes it has valid defenses to such claims and, if required, intends to defend them vigorously. Given the state of these claims, it is not possible to determine the potential liability, if any. In April 2018, a stockholder derivative complaint was filed in Sarasota County, Florida against the Company, nominally, and its directors and former chairman & chief executive officer (“CEO”), alleging the directors breached their fiduciary duties and were unjustly enriched by the compensation earned by the nonexecutive directors and the CEO in 2015 and 2016. The matter was settled in June 2019, and the settlement was approved by the court in September. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, expand future disclosures regarding its compensation practices, submit a new director compensation plan to shareholders for approval in 2020, and pay plaintiff’s attorneys’ fees and expenses.</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#252525;">As of </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">December 31, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#252525;">, Roper had </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$74.0</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#252525;"> of letters of credit issued to guarantee its performance under certain services contracts or to support certain insurance programs and </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$732.7</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#252525;"> of outstanding surety bonds.
