ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")
permits a Delaware corporation, in its certificate of incorporation, to
limit or eliminate, subject to certain statutory limitations, the liability
of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty, except for liability (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. Article SEVEN of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provides that no director of the Registrant shall be
personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders in accordance with
the foregoing provisions of Section 102(b)(7).
Under Section 145 of the DGCL, a Delaware corporation has the power to
indemnify directors and officers under certain prescribed circumstances and,
subject to certain limitations, against certain costs and expenses,
including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative, to which any of them is a party by reason of being a
director or officer of the Registrant if it is determined that the director
or the officer acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct
set forth in such statutory provision. Article EIGHT of the Registrant's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that any person who was or is
made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved
in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or
II-1
<PAGE>
investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a
director or an officer of the Registrant or is or was serving at the request
of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the
basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a
director, officer, employee or agent in any capacity while serving as a
director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Registrant to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL.
The Registrant has purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance
covering certain liabilities which may be incurred by the officers and
directors of the Registrant in connection with the performance of their
duties.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers of sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement
(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to
the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement;
Provided, however, that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this
section do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-3, Form
S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated
by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at
the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
* * *
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment
by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are counsel to Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (the "Company") and
we have acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the preparation of
the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for the registration under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, of 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value
$.01 per share (the "Shares"), which are to be issued from time to time to
certain employees of the Company and its affiliates in connection with the
Teledyne, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the "Plan").
We have examined the originals, certified copies or copies otherwise
identified to our satisfaction as being true copies of the Plan and such other
documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this
opinion.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly and validly authorized and reserved for issuance, and that the Shares, when
issued under the terms of the Plan, will be legally and validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,

Dear Applicant:
We have made a favorable determination on your plan, identified above,
based on the information supplied. Please keep this letter in your permanent

Continued qualification of the plan under its present form will depend on
its effect in operation. (See section 1.401-1(b)(3) of the Income Tax
Regulations.) We will review the status of the plan in operation periodically.
The enclosed document explains the significance of this favorable
determination letter, points out some features that may affect the qualified
status of your employee retirement plan, and provides information on the
reporting requirements for your plan. It also describes some events that
automatically nullify it. It is very important that you read the publication.
This letter relates only to the status of your plan under the Internal
Revenue Code. It is not a determination regarding the effect of other federal or
local statutes.
This determination letter is applicable for the plan adopted on June 22,
1991.
This plan has been mandatorily disaggregated, permissively aggregated, or
restructured to satisfy the nondiscrimination requirements.
This letter is issued under Rev. Proc. 93-39 and considers the amendments
required by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 except as otherwise specified in this

This plan satisfies the nondiscriminatory current availability
requirements of section 1.401(a)(4)-4(b) of the regulations with respect to
those benefits, rights, and features that are currently available to all
employees in the plan's coverage group. For this purpose, the plan's coverage
group consists of those employees treated as currently benefiting for purposes
of demonstrating that the plan satisfies the minimum coverage requirements of
section 410(b) of the Code.
This letter may not be relied upon with respect to whether the plan
satisfies the qualification requirements as amended by the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act, Pub. L. 103-465.
The information on the enclosed addendum is an integral part of this
determination. Please be sure to read and keep it with this letter.
