terms, all of the following (regardless of when or where such Benefit

dependents and beneficiaries, in each case relating to, arising out of or

(including Benefit Liabilities under ATI Plans and Teledyne Technologies Plans);
(ii) all other Benefit Liabilities to or relating to Teledyne Technologies

relating to, arising out of or resulting from future, present or former
employment with Teledyne Technologies or a Teledyne Technologies Entity
(including Benefit Liabilities under ATI Plans and Teledyne Technologies Plans);
(iii) all Benefit Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from any
other actual or alleged employment relationship with Teledyne Technologies or a
Teledyne Technologies Entity; (iv) all Benefit Liabilities relating to, arising
out of or resulting from the imposition of withdrawal liability under Subtitle E
of Title IV of ERISA as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal of any ATI
Entity from a "multiemployer plan" within the meaning of ERISA Section 4021
which occurs solely as a result of the Separation or the Distribution; and (v)
all other Benefit Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from
obligations, liabilities and responsibilities expressly assumed or retained by

the foregoing, Teledyne Technologies does not assume or agree to pay, perform,
fulfill or discharge any Benefit Liabilities relating to, arising out of or

2.2 ESTABLISHMENT OF TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES PLANS. Effective prior
to the Distribution Date, Teledyne Technologies shall adopt, or cause to be
adopted, the
6
<PAGE> 10
Teledyne Technologies Pension Plan and its related trust, the amended Teledyne
401(k) Plan for the period between the Distribution Date and April 1, 2000, the
Teledyne Technologies Stock Purchase Plan, the Teledyne Technologies Health and
Welfare Plans, and the Teledyne Technologies Executive Benefit Plans for the
benefit of the Teledyne Technologies Individuals and other current and future
employees of Teledyne Technologies and the Teledyne Technologies Entities;
provided, however, that Teledyne Technologies may, in its sole discretion, elect
not to adopt or establish the Plan or Plans listed in Schedule 2.2(a). Subject
to the provisions of Section 4.1 regarding the Teledyne Technologies 401(k)
Plan, or as otherwise may be set forth in Schedule 2.2(b), the foregoing
Teledyne Technologies Plans shall be substantially identical in all Material
Features to the corresponding ATI Plans as in effect as of the Close of the
Distribution Date. Effective prior to or within a reasonable time after the
Distribution Date, Teledyne Technologies shall adopt, or cause to be adopted,
the Teledyne Technologies Non-Employee Director Plans, for the benefit of
Teledyne Technologies Non-Employee Directors. The Teledyne Technologies
Non-Employee Director Plans shall be substantially similar in all Material
Features to the corresponding ATI Non-Employee Director Plans as in effect on
the Distribution Date. Effective no later than April 1, 2000, Teledyne
Technologies shall adopt the Teledyne Technologies 401(k) Plan and its related
trust.
2.3 TERMS OF PARTICIPATION BY TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES INDIVIDUALS IN
TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES PLANS. The Teledyne Technologies Plans shall be, with
respect to Teledyne Technologies Individuals, in all respects the successors in
interest to, and shall not provide benefits that duplicate benefits provided by,
the corresponding ATI Plans. ATI and Teledyne Technologies shall agree on
methods and procedures, including amending the respective Plan documents and/or
requesting approvals or consents of Teledyne Technologies Individuals where the
parties deem appropriate, to prevent Teledyne Technologies Individuals from
receiving duplicative benefits from the ATI Plans and the Teledyne Technologies
Plans. With respect to Teledyne Technologies Individuals, each Teledyne
Technologies Plan shall provide that all service, all compensation and all other
benefit-affecting determinations that, as of the Close of the Distribution Date,
were recognized under the corresponding ATI Plan shall, as of Immediately After
the Distribution Date, receive full recognition, credit, and validity and be
taken into account under such Teledyne Technologies Plan to the same extent as
if such items occurred under such Teledyne Technologies Plan, except to the
extent that duplication of benefits would result. The provisions of this
Agreement for the transfer of assets from certain trusts relating to ATI Plans
(including Foreign Plans) to the corresponding trusts relating to Teledyne
Technologies Plans (including Foreign Plans) are based upon the understanding of
the parties that each such Teledyne Technologies Plan will assume all Benefit
Liabilities of the corresponding ATI Plan to or relating to Teledyne
Technologies Individuals, as provided for herein. If any such Benefit
Liabilities are not effectively assumed by the appropriate Teledyne Technologies
Plan, then the amount of assets transferred to the trust relating to such
Teledyne Technologies Plan from the trust relating to the corresponding ATI Plan
shall be recomputed as set forth below, but taking into account the retention of
such Benefit Liabilities by such ATI Plan, and assets shall be transferred by
the trust relating to such Teledyne Technologies Plan to the trust relating to
such ATI Plan so as to place each such trust in the position it would have been
in, had the initial asset transfer been made in accordance with such recomputed
amount of assets.

ARTICLE III
DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS
3.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES PENSION PLAN AND TRUST. The

and conditions substantially similar to the provisions, terms and conditions of
the ATI Pension Plan, (iii) shall provide coverage to and assume the benefit
payment obligations of the ATI Pension Plan with respect to the Teledyne

ATI Pension Plan and (v) shall provide that the Teledyne Technologies Pension

2001 without the prior written consent of ATI. The trust related to the Teledyne

Section 2.2, is intended to be exempt from taxation under Code Section 501(a)
and Teledyne Technologies shall take all steps necessary or appropriate to cause
such trust to meet the requirements for tax exemption under Code Section 501(a).
3.2 ASSUMPTION OF PENSION PLAN LIABILITIES AND ALLOCATION OF INTERESTS
IN THE ATI MASTER PENSION TRUST.
(a) CALCULATION OF ASSET ALLOCATION. A nationally-recognized

Actuary shall deliver to ATI and Teledyne Technologies a written report, with
the necessary supporting data, setting forth the calculations by the Actuary of
the Section 414(l) Amount and a certification that such amount complies with
Section 414(l) of the Code. The Actuary's determination of the Section 414(l)
Amount shall be final and binding on all parties hereto and for all purposes
hereunder. The costs of the Actuary with respect to the determination of the
Section 414(l) Amount under this Section 3.2(a) shall be borne equally by ATI
and Teledyne Technologies. The "Section 414(l) Amount" means the minimum amount
required to be transferred from the ATI Pension Plan to the Teledyne
Technologies Pension Plan with respect to the Teledyne Technologies Pension Plan
Participants pursuant to Section 208 of ERISA and Section 414(l) of the Code and
the applicable rulings and regulations thereunder using actuarial assumptions
deemed reasonable in the aggregate by the Actuary within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.414(l)-1(b)(9) with respect to plan terminations occurring
as of the Distribution Date.

determination of the Section 414(l) Amount in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 3.2(a) but in no event earlier than two (2) business days after
the Distribution Date or more than sixty (60) days after the Distribution Date,
ATI shall cause to be transferred from the ATI Master Pension Trust to the
Teledyne Technologies Master Pension Trust assets in a form determined by ATI in
its sole
8
<PAGE> 12
discretion with a market value then equal to the sum of (i) the Section 414(l)
Amount and (ii) up to $50,000,000, together with interest on such Section 414(l)
Amount for the period from the Distribution Date to the date of transfer at a
rate equal to the rate of interest on 90-day U.S. Treasury bills as of the
Distribution Date, reduced by the amount of any benefit payments due and made to
or on behalf of any of the Teledyne Technologies Individuals from the ATI Master
Pension Trust during such period and not taken into account in determining the

(ii) ATI shall have the right to determine, and shall
promptly notify Teledyne Technologies of, the manner in which Teledyne
Technologies' participation in the terms and conditions of ASO Contracts as set

standards and target claims. Teledyne Technologies hereby unconditionally and
irrevocably authorizes ATI to act on its behalf to extend to Teledyne
Technologies the terms and conditions of such Group Insurance Policies. Teledyne
Technologies shall fully cooperate with ATI in such efforts, and Teledyne

Technologies' participation may be effectuated include automatically making
Teledyne Technologies a party to the HMO Agreements or obligating the HMOs to
enter into letter agreements with Teledyne Technologies which are identical to
the HMO Agreements (or such other arrangement as to which ATI and Teledyne
Technologies shall mutually agree). Such terms and conditions shall include the
financial and termination provisions of the HMO Agreements. Teledyne
Technologies hereby authorizes ATI to act on its behalf to extend to Teledyne
Technologies the terms and conditions of the HMO Agreements. Teledyne
Technologies shall fully cooperate with ATI in such efforts, and Teledyne
Technologies shall not perform any act, including discussing any alternative
arrangements with any third-party, that would prejudice ATI's efforts.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Article V to
the contrary, Teledyne Technologies shall have the sole discretion to determine
which HMOs to offer to the participants in the Teledyne Technologies Health and
Welfare Plans for 2001 and subsequent years, and all HMO Agreements in which

6.4(a)(ii)(B), Teledyne Technologies shall be responsible for determining, with
respect to all Awards that would otherwise be payable under any bonus Plan or
arrangement to Teledyne Technologies Individuals for the 1999 performance year,
(a) the extent to which established performance criteria (as
17
<PAGE> 21
interpreted by Teledyne Technologies, in its sole discretion, after taking into
account the effects of the Distribution) have been met and (b) the payment level
for each Teledyne Technologies Individual.
6.4 ATI INCENTIVE PLANS. ATI and Teledyne Technologies shall use their
Reasonable Efforts to take all actions necessary or appropriate so that each
outstanding Award granted under any ATI Incentive Plan held by any Teledyne
Technologies Individual shall be determined, converted or replaced, as the case
may be, as set forth in this Section 6.4 with an Award under the Teledyne
Technologies Incentive Plan.
(a) TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE ACTIVE EMPLOYEES
OF TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES.

each ATI Option that is outstanding as of the Close of the Distribution Date and
is held by a Teledyne Technologies Individual to be converted, effective
Immediately After the Distribution Date, to a Teledyne Technologies Option (a
"Converted Option"). Such Converted Option shall provide for the option to
purchase a number of shares of Teledyne Technologies Common Stock equal to the
number of shares of ATI Common Stock subject to such ATI Option as of the Close
of the Distribution Date, multiplied by the Ratio, and then rounded up to the
nearest whole share. The per-share exercise price of such Converted Option shall
equal the per-share exercise price of such ATI Option as of the Close of the
Distribution Date divided by the Ratio. Each such Converted Option shall
otherwise have the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the
corresponding ATI Option as of the Close of the Distribution Date, except that
references to ATI and its Affiliates shall be amended to refer to Teledyne
Technologies and its Affiliates.
(ii) PERFORMANCE AWARDS.
(A) The current performance period under the
ATI Performance Share Program is the three-year period commencing on January 1,
1998. Either prior to or within a reasonable time after the Distribution Date,
in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.4(a)(ii)(B), the applicable ATI
Performance Award under the ATI Performance Share Program shall be determined by
ATI with respect to each Teledyne Technologies Individual for the period from
January 1, 1998 through the Distribution Date. Effective Immediately After the
Distribution Date, Teledyne Technologies and the Teledyne Technologies Entities
shall assume and be solely responsible for all Benefit Liabilities to or
relating to Teledyne Technologies Individuals with respect to the administration
and distribution of Performance Awards to such Teledyne Technologies
Individuals.
(B) Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 6.3, the ATI Personnel and Compensation Committee or the Stock Incentive
Award Subcommittee, as the case may be, shall determine, in its sole and
absolute discretion, with respect to each Teledyne Technologies Individual, the
extent to which, as of the Distribution Date, such Individual has achieved
target performance levels established under the ATI Performance Share Program
and the appropriate Performance Award for such Individual based upon such
performance. The Performance Award so determined shall be pro-rated by
multiplying the Performance Award
18
<PAGE> 22
determined under the preceding sentence by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be equal to the number of months from and including January 1, 1998 to the
month in which the Distribution Date occurs and the denominator of which shall
be 36. The Performance Award as determined hereunder shall be distributed by
Teledyne Technologies and the Teledyne Technologies Entities to the applicable
Teledyne Technologies Individual as provided under the terms of the Performance
Share Program; provided, however, that any ATI Common Stock allocated or
otherwise awarded to a Teledyne Technologies Individual as part of a Performance
Award under the provisions of this Section 6.4(a)(ii) shall, prior to any
distribution to such Individual and, in any event, no later than Immediately
After the Distribution Date, be converted into Teledyne Technologies Common
Stock by multiplying the number of shares of ATI Common Stock subject to such
Performance Award by an appropriate ratio, as determined by ATI's Board of
Directors or an applicable Committee thereof and then rounding the product up to
the nearest whole share. Teledyne Technologies shall pay to the holder of such
Performance Award, at the time of such conversion, cash in lieu of any
fractional share based on the Teledyne Technologies Stock Value.
(iii) SARP. As of the Distribution Date, all shares
of ATI Common Stock issued and outstanding held by a Teledyne Technologies
Individual under the ATI SARP as Designated Stock or Purchased Stock (as those
terms are defined in the ATI SARP) shall continue to be so held, and the shares
of Teledyne Technologies Common Stock received by Teledyne Technologies
Individuals in respect of their Purchased Stock and Designated Stock pursuant to
the distribution terms of Article III of the Separation and Distribution
Agreement and the shares of Water Pik Technologies, Inc. Common Stock received
by Teledyne Technologies Individuals in respect of their Purchased Stock and
Designated Stock as a result of the spin-off of Water Pik Technologies, Inc. by
ATI to ATI's stockholders shall also be considered Designated Stock or Purchased
Stock, as the case may be, subject to the terms of the ATI SARP. Effective
Immediately After the Distribution Date, Teledyne Technologies shall assume all
Benefit Liabilities to or relating to Teledyne Technologies Individuals under

while in the employ of ATI or an ATI Entity before becoming a Teledyne

extent necessary to reflect the actual amount of such Benefit Liabilities. In

legal entity and/or other appropriate accounting code, to the extent possible.

7.5 NON-TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT; NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. No
provision of this Agreement or the Separation and Distribution Agreement shall

commencement of benefits under any of the ATI Plans, any of the Teledyne
Technologies Plans, or any individual agreements; and (ii) except as expressly
provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Teledyne
Technologies, at any time after the Close of the Distribution Date, from
amending, merging, modifying, terminating, eliminating, reducing, or otherwise
altering in any respect any Teledyne Technologies Plan, any benefit under any
Plan or any trust, insurance policy or funding vehicle related to any Teledyne

that actions required to be taken pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to
fiduciary duties or standards of conduct under ERISA or other applicable law,
and no party shall be deemed to be in violation of this Agreement if it fails to
comply with any provisions hereof based upon its good faith determination that
to do so would violate such a fiduciary duty or standard.
7.9 COLLECTIVE BARGAINING. To the extent any provision of this
Agreement is contrary to the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement
to which ATI or any Affiliate of ATI is a party, the terms of such collective
bargaining agreement shall prevail. Should any provisions of this Agreement be
deemed to relate to a topic determined by an appropriate authority to be a
mandatory subject of collective bargaining, ATI or Teledyne Technologies may be
obligated to bargain with the union representing affected employees concerning
those subjects. Neither party will agree to a modification of any collective
bargaining agreement without the consent of the other.
