Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and
Morgan Stanley & Co. International Limited (collectively "MORGAN STANLEY"
propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the "UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT")
with Lennox International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"),
providing for the public offering (the "PUBLIC OFFERING") by the several

To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering
to continue their efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the
undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of Morgan
Stanley on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the period commencing
on the date hereof and ending 180 days after the date of the final prospectus
relating to the Public Offering (the "PROSPECTUS"), (1) offer, pledge, sell,
contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option
or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or
otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common
Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Common Stock or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to
another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of
Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above
is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash
or otherwise; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the undersigned shall be permitted to make
a bona fide gift of shares of Common Stock during such period if the undersigned
delivers to Morgan Stanley a letter substantially similar to this letter
executed by the donee. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) the sale of
any Shares to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement or (b)
transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in
open market transactions after the completion of the Public Offering. In
addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of
Morgan Stanley on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the period
commencing on the date hereof and ending 180 days after the date of the
Prospectus, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the
registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or
exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock.
Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number
of factors, including market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made
pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to
negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.
Please sign your name or names exactly as printed below. For a joint
account, each joint owner should sign. Persons signing in a representative

Very truly yours,
/s/ THOMAS W. BOOTH
