3.01 Eligibility.

(a) Generally. Except as provided in subsection (b), an individual will be eligible to participate in the Plan if the individual is an Eligible Employee and has attained the age of eighteen (18).

(b) Restrictions on Eligibility.

(1) An Employee covered by a currently effective collective bargaining agreement will not be eligible to participate in the Plan unless the Employee is otherwise eligible and the agreement expressly provides for inclusion in the Plan of Eligible Employees in his bargaining unit. Expiration of a collective bargaining agreement will not by itself affect an Employee’s status as eligible to participate in the Plan pending execution of a new collective bargaining agreement.

(2) No Employee will be eligible to participate or to continue to participate in the Plan if the applicable laws of any state, country, or other jurisdiction prohibit participation in the Plan or render its provisions invalid or inoperative in their application to that Employee.

3.02 Participation.

Any individual who was a Participant in the Plan immediately preceding the Effective Date will be considered a Participant on the Effective Date. Each other Eligible Employee who meets the requirements of Section 3.01 will become a Participant on the first day that the Eligible Employee first performs an Hour of Service as an Eligible Employee. No Employee will participate before the effective date set forth in Paragraph A of the applicable Adoption Agreement.

3.03 Cessation of Active Participation.

Once an Eligible Employee has become an active Participant in the Plan in accordance with Section 3.02, the Eligible Employee will remain a Participant in the Plan until the Participant’s entire Account balance under the Plan has been distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. While a Participant is an Eligible Employee, the Participant will be considered an “Active Participant.” During all other periods of participation, a Participant will be considered an “Inactive Participant.” Except as otherwise provided, only those Participants who are Active Participants will be entitled to share in Matching, Retirement, or Retirement Incentive Contributions or to elect to make Pre-Tax, Roth, After-Tax, Catch-Up, or Rollover Contributions.

A Participant may elect to have Compensation that would otherwise be paid to him by his Employer Unit in cash reduced as provided in subsection (1) by filing an election with the Plan Administrator in such form and at such time as the Plan Administrator will require. Such election will be effective on the first day of the first payroll period that follows the date that the election is made, subject to such rules as the Plan Administrator may establish for this purpose (including a deadline for making an election effective as of the first day of a particular payroll period). A Participant’s election will evidence the Participant’s agreement, until subsequently modified by the Participant in accordance with Section 4.06, to have contributions made on the Participant’s behalf in accordance with paragraph (1).

(3) Roth Contributions. A Participant may elect to designate all or a portion of his Pre-Tax Contribution irrevocably, at the time of the election, as a Roth Contribution that is being made in lieu of all or a portion of the Pre-Tax Contribution. Roth Contributions shall be includible in the Participant’s income pursuant to section 402A of the Code.

(b) Automatic Election of Pre-Tax Contributions.

(1) Amount of Automatic Election.

(A) Each Participant will be deemed to have elected to reduce his Compensation by three percent (3%), effective with respect to the first administratively feasible payroll period following the thirtieth (30th) day after the Participant receives the notice described in paragraph (2), unless within a reasonable period before such date, as determined by the Plan Administrator, the Participant elects in accordance with Section 4.06(a) either to reduce his

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 14

Compensation by a different percentage or not to make Pre-Tax Contributions. This deemed election will be a Pre-Tax Contribution election for all purposes of the Plan and will remain in effect unless the election is changed by the Participant in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.06(a).

(B) The amount of a deemed Pre-Tax Contribution election under this Section 4.01(b) will increase by one percent (1%) of Compensation each year until it equals six percent (6%) of Compensation as follows:

(I) the first automatic increase will apply with respect to the first payroll period that begins in January of the year after the year in which the Participant is deemed to have elected to reduce his Compensation by three percent (3%) under Section 4.01(b)(1)(A), and

(II) each subsequent automatic increase will apply with respect to the first payroll period that begins in the January following the first automatic increase or any subsequent automatic increase.

Any automatic increases in a deemed Pre-Tax Contribution election will remain in place until the Participant’s deemed election equals six percent (6%) of Compensation unless the Participant revokes or changes his election pursuant to Section 4.06(a) before that time.

(2) Notice Regarding Automatic Election.

At least thirty (30) days, but not more than ninety (90) days, before each Plan Year, the Plan Administrator will provide each Participant a comprehensive notice described in paragraph (B), below, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the average Participant. If a Participant becomes (or again becomes) eligible to participate in the Plan after the ninetieth (90th) day before the beginning of the Plan Year and does not receive the notice for that reason, the notice will be provided no earlier than ninety (90) days before the date that the Participant becomes (or again becomes) eligible to participate in the Plan but not later than the first administratively feasible date after the Participant becomes (or again becomes) eligible to participate in the Plan.

(B) Content of Notice. The notice will describe:

Pursuant to each such election, the Participant’s Employer Unit will, in accordance with Section 4.07, contribute the amount of the reduction in Compensation elected for a payroll period to the Plan on the Participant’s behalf as an After-Tax Contribution. The Plan Administrator may change the maximum percentages set forth in this subsection at any time with respect to non-discriminatory groups of Eligible Employees of an Employer Unit. Any portion of an After-Tax Contribution made by a Participant for any Plan Year that exceeds the maximum amount permitted by the Plan shall be returned to him, together with the allocable gain or loss, as soon as practicable and shall not be considered an After-Tax Contribution for any purpose of the Plan.

(b) Election Procedures. A Participant may elect to have Compensation that would otherwise be paid to him by his Employer Unit in cash reduced as provided in subsection (a) by filing an election with the Plan Administrator in such form and at such time as the Plan Administrator will require. Such election will be effective on the first day of the first payroll period that follows the date that the election is made, subject to such rules as the Plan Administrator may establish for this purpose (including a deadline for making an election effective as of the first day of a particular payroll period). A Participant’s election will evidence the Participant’s agreement, until subsequently modified by the Participant in accordance with Section 4.06, to have contributions made on the Participant’s behalf in accordance with subsection (a).

4.03 Catch-Up Contributions.

Each Participant who has attained (or will attain) age 50 before the close of a Plan Year and on whose behalf his Employer Unit is contributing the maximum combined Pre-Tax and Roth Contributions permitted under the Plan (by reason of either Section 4.01, Section 4.04, or Article 6) may elect, in accordance with the procedures described in Section 4.01(a)(2), an additional reduction in Compensation of no more than the least of the following:

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 16

(b) $5,000, as adjusted by the Internal Revenue Service in accordance with section 414(v)(2)(C) of the Code; or

(c) The excess, if any, of:

(1) the Participant’s Compensation (as defined in Section 6.02(c)(2)) for the Plan Year, over

(2) the Participant’s Pre-Tax and Roth Contributions for the Plan Year.

Pursuant to each such election by a Participant, the Participant’s Employer Unit will, in accordance with Section 4.07, contribute the amount of the reduction in Compensation to the Plan on the Participant’s behalf as a Catch-Up Contribution. Catch-Up Contributions are not subject to the limits of Section 4.04 or Article 6.

4.04 Limitation on Contributions.

The sum of a Participant’s Pre-Tax, Roth, After-Tax, and Catch-Up Contributions for any payroll period shall not exceed seventy-five percent (75%) of his Compensation for that payroll period; provided that if the Participant is a Highly Compensated Employee: (a) the sum of his Pre-Tax and Roth Contributions shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of his Compensation for that payroll period, (b) his After-Tax Contributions shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of his Compensation for that payroll period, and (c) his Catch-Up Contributions shall not exceed the limit provided under Section 4.03.

4.05 Rollover Contributions.

(a) Subject to Plan Administrator procedures and without regard to any limitations on contributions set forth in Section 4.01(a), 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, or Article 6, the Plan may receive from an Eligible Employee, regardless of whether he has completed the age requirements of Section 3.01, in cash, any portion of:

(1) an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in subsection (f)) paid to an Eligible Employee from an eligible retirement plan (as defined in subsection (f)), provided that the rollover satisfies the requirements of section 402(c) or 408(d)(3)(A) of the Code and the Eligible Employee pays such amount to the Trustee on or before the 60th day after the day it was received by the Eligible Employee; or

(2) an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in subsection (f)) paid as a direct rollover that satisfies section 401(a)(31) of the Code to the Trustee on behalf of the Eligible Employee by an eligible retirement plan.

(b) The Plan will accept amounts attributable to a designated Roth account or after-tax amounts; provided that such rollover is in the form of a direct rollover described in subsection (a)(2).

(c) Upon approval by the Plan Administrator, the amount transferred to the Plan by an Eligible Employee pursuant to this Section 4.05 will be credited to the Eligible Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account, and, in accordance with Article 7, shall be allocated within such Rollover Contribution Account to Pre-Tax Rollover,

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 17

Roth Rollover, and After-Tax Rollover Subaccounts, as applicable. The Eligible Employee will be fully vested in his Rollover Contribution Account and will share in allocations of income, gains and losses from investment options.

(d) Upon a transfer described in this Section 4.05 by an Eligible Employee who is not a Participant, the Eligible Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account will represent his sole interest in the Plan until he becomes a Participant.

(e) The Plan Administrator will develop such other procedures and may require such information from an Eligible Employee as it deems necessary or desirable to determine that a proposed rollover will meet the requirements of this Section 4.05 and that the amount rolled over qualifies for rollover treatment pursuant to applicable provisions of the Code. If the Plan Administrator determines that any Rollover Contribution previously made to the Plan by a Participant is not a valid Rollover Contribution, the Plan Administrator will return to the Participant, as soon as administratively possible, the amount of the invalid Rollover Contribution, together with earnings attributable to the Rollover Contribution.

(f) For purposes of this Section 4.05, the following terms are defined as follows:

(1) Eligible Rollover Distribution. An “Eligible Rollover Distribution” is all or any portion of the distribution from an eligible retirement plan, excluding (A) any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Eligible Employee and his designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; (B) any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code; or (C) any amount that is distributed on account of hardship.

(2) Eligible Retirement Plan. An “Eligible Retirement Plan” means (A) a qualified plan described in section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code; (B) an annuity contract described in section 403(b) of the Code; (C) an eligible plan under section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state; (D) an individual retirement account or annuity described in section 408(a) or 408(b) of the Code; or (E) a Roth individual retirement account described in section 408A(b) of the Code.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 18

by filing an election with the Plan Administrator in such form as the Plan Administrator may require. Such election will be effective on the first day of the first payroll period that follows the date that the election is made, discontinued, or changed, subject to such rules as the Plan Administrator may establish for this purpose (including a deadline for making, discontinuing, or changing an election effective as of the first day of a particular payroll period). The Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit such election to be transmitted electronically or telephonically, to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with any procedures set forth in, applicable law and regulations.

(b) A Participant may elect for his Pre-Tax Contributions to automatically increase each Plan Year by either one percent (1%), two percent (2%) or three percent (3%) of Compensation to the extent that the increases do not cause the Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions, Roth Contributions, or Catch-Up Contributions to exceed the applicable limits described in Section 4.01(a), 4.03, 4.04, and Article 6. The Participant may elect the month that the increase will become effective during a Plan Year, and any increase will be applied beginning with Compensation earned during the first payroll period of that month. If the Participant does not elect a month for the automatic increase to apply, the increase will be applied effective beginning with Compensation earned during the first payroll period that begins in each Plan Year. A Participant may prospectively elect, at any time, to apply, discontinue or to change the time and amount of an automatic increase to the amount of his Pre-Tax Contributions.

(c) If a Participant ceases to receive Compensation due to a change of status of employment, the Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions, Roth Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, and Catch-Up Contributions will be automatically suspended as of the date of the change of status and discontinued as of the later of two and one half months after the change of status or the end of the Plan Year in which the change of status occurs. If a Participant’s contributions are discontinued due to a change of status of employment, his participation in the Plan upon his reemployment will be subject to Section 3.04. If a Participant ceases to receive Compensation by reason of a layoff, an authorized leave of absence, or a change of status of employment that does not result in discontinuance of the Participant’s contributions, the Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions, Roth Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, and Catch-Up Contributions will be automatically suspended at the beginning of the leave period or as of the date of the change of status of employment and will be automatically reinstated upon his return.

(d) An Employer Unit may suspend a Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions, Roth Contributions, or After-Tax Contributions at any time if, based on the Employer Unit’s estimates, suspension appears to be necessary to avoid or reduce any year-end adjustment that it otherwise may expect to make under Section 6.02.

(e) No Employee will make Pre-Tax Contributions, Roth Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, or Catch-Up Contributions for any payroll period beginning after the effective date as set forth in Paragraph A of an applicable Exit Agreement.

The Trustee will credit the amounts so received to the Pre-Tax Contribution, Roth Contribution, After-Tax Contribution, and Catch-Up Contribution Accounts, respectively, of the appropriate Participants as soon as administratively feasible after receipt of the amounts.

(b) Each contribution made by the Employer Units pursuant to the provisions of this Article 4 is made expressly contingent on its deductibility for federal income tax purposes for the fiscal year with respect to which such contribution is made, and no such contribution will be made for any year to the extent it would exceed the deductible limit for such year as set forth in section 404 of the Code.

(2) the maximum Matching Contribution specified in Paragraph E of the applicable Adoption Agreement;

provided, however, that if the Participant is an active participant in a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate, and paragraph E of the applicable Adoption Agreement does not provide for Retirement Contributions, Retirement Incentive Contributions, and/or Profit-Sharing Contributions on behalf of any Eligible Employee, the Employer Unit will contribute for the Participant 33 1/3% of the Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions (but not Catch-Up Contributions), on the first 6% of such Eligible Employee’s Compensation for the applicable payroll period, up to a maximum Matching Contribution of 2% of the Participant’s Compensation for the applicable payroll period; provided that the Matching Contribution made on behalf of any such Participant will not exceed $1,200 in any Plan Year.

(b) Employer Units will make payment in cash of Matching Contributions to the Trustee as soon as practicable after the Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions on which such Matching Contributions are based are contributed to the Plan. Matching Contributions will be allocated to Participants’ Matching Contribution Accounts in accordance with Section 7.02(g).

5.02 Retirement Contributions.

Subject to the limitations imposed by Article 6, if a Participant is eligible for a Retirement Contribution, as provided in Paragraph E of the applicable Adoption Agreement, the appropriate Employer Unit will contribute to the Plan a percentage (based upon the table set forth below) of the Compensation earned for each payroll period during the Plan Year that the Participant is eligible for a Retirement Contribution.

Total of Participant’s Age Plus Full Years of Service	Percentage of Compensation Up to Taxable Wage Base			Percentage of Compensation Exceeding Taxable Wage Base

For purposes of this Section 5.02, a Participant’s age and full Years of Service means the Participant’s age and full Years of Service, not rounded, on the first day of the Plan Year. A Participant who is reemployed after having a Period of Severance of at least one year will not receive credit for Years of Service preceding the Period of Severance for purposes of calculating a Retirement Contribution under this Section 5.02.

Retirement Contributions will be allocated to eligible Participants’ Retirement Contribution Accounts in accordance with Section 7.02(h).

Employer Units will make payment in cash of Retirement Incentive Contributions to the Trustee as soon as practicable after the Pre-Tax Contributions and/or Roth Contributions on which such Retirement Incentive Contributions are based are contributed to the Plan.

5.04 Discretionary Contributions.

Subject to the limitations imposed by Article 6, an Employer Unit may make a contribution to the Plan in such amount as the Employer Unit may, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate, and such amount may be zero. Any Discretionary Contribution will be allocated to the Discretionary Contribution Account of each Participant who (a) is a member of a group that has been designated as included in the definition of “Eligible Employee” in Paragraph D of the appropriate Adoption Agreement, and (b) completes at least one (1) Hour of Service with the Employer Unit during the Plan Year in the same ratio that each such Participant’s Compensation for such Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all such eligible Participants for the Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Employer Unit may provide in the written instrument providing for the Discretionary Contribution a different group of Participants or basis for allocating the Discretionary Contribution that satisfies the nondiscrimination requirements of section 401(a)(4) of the Code and otherwise complies with the requirements of the Code and ERISA.

5.05 Profit-Sharing Contributions.

Subject to the limitations imposed by Article 6, if a collectively bargained Participant is eligible for a Profit-Sharing Contribution, as provided in Paragraph E of the applicable Adoption Agreement, the appropriate Employer Unit will contribute to the Plan a percentage (as specified in the Adoption Agreement) of the Compensation earned for each payroll period during the Plan Year that the Participant is eligible for a Profit-Sharing Contribution. Profit-Sharing Contributions will be allocated to Participants’ Profit-Sharing Contribution Accounts in accordance with Section 7.02(m).

5.06 Credit to Accounts.

Employer Contributions made pursuant to this Article 5 for any Plan Year will be made no later than the last day on which amounts may be deducted for federal income tax purposes for the taxable year of the Employer Unit in which the Plan Year ends. Each contribution made by Employer Units pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5 is made expressly contingent on its deductibility for federal income tax purposes for the fiscal year with respect to which such contribution is made, and no such contribution will be made for any year to the extent it would exceed the deductible limit for such year as set forth in section 404 of the Code.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 23

ARTICLE 6. LIMITATIONS ON CONTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS TO ACCOUNTS

6.01 Limits on Employee Contributions.

(a) In General. Except as provided in Section 4.03 (with respect to Catch-Up Contributions) and Section 20.02(b), a Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions for any calendar year will not exceed the amount set forth in section 402(g)(1) of the Code, as adjusted from time to time by the Secretary of the Treasury or by applicable law, reduced by contributions to other plans excludible from his taxable income by reason of sections 401(k), 403(b), 408(k), or 408(p) of the Code.

(b) Correction of Excess Deferrals. If the sum of the Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions (excluding Catch-Up Contributions) and similar contributions to any other qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliate on behalf of a Participant exceeds the dollar limit set forth above for any calendar year, the Participant will be deemed to have elected a return of the contributions in excess of such limit (“excess deferrals”) from this Plan. In addition, if a Participant makes pre-tax contributions or Roth contributions under another qualified defined contribution plan maintained by an employer other than the Employer or an Affiliate for any calendar year and those contributions when added to his Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions under this Plan exceed the dollar limit set forth above for that calendar year, the Participant may allocate a portion of such excess deferrals to this Plan so long as he notifies the Plan Administrator by April 1 of that following year of the amount of excess deferral allocated to this Plan. The excess deferrals, together with earnings, will be returned to the Participant no later than April 15 following the end of the calendar year in which the excess deferrals were made. Roth Contributions will be returned first and, to the extent that the excess deferrals are more than the Participant’s Roth Contributions for the year, then Pre-Tax Contributions equal to the remainder of the excess deferrals will be returned. The amount of excess deferrals to be returned for any calendar year will be reduced by any Pre-Tax Contributions or Roth Contributions previously returned to the Participant under Section 6.03(a) for that calendar year or re-characterized as Catch-Up Contributions contributed pursuant to Section 4.03 to the extent permitted by section 414(v) of the Code. If any Pre-Tax Contributions or Roth Contributions returned or re-characterized under this paragraph were matched by Matching Contributions or Retirement Incentive Contributions under Sections 5.01 and 5.03, respectively, those Matching Contributions and Retirement Incentive Contributions, together with earnings, will be forfeited and used to reduce Employer Contributions.

6.02 Limits on Annual Additions.

(a) In General. The Annual Additions to the Accounts of any Participant for a Plan Year, when added to the Annual Additions of his accounts under all other defined contribution plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliate, may not exceed the lesser of:

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 24

(1) Forty-nine thousand dollars ($49,000), as adjusted in accordance with section 415(d) of the Code, or

(2) One hundred percent (100%) of the Participant’s Compensation (as defined below) for the Plan Year.

The limit referred to in subsection (2) will not apply to any contribution for medical benefits (within the meaning of section 401(h) or section 419A(f)(2) of the Code) after separation from service which is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition.

(b) Correction of Excess Annual Additions.

(1) If for any Plan Year the Annual Additions on behalf of a Participant exceed the limitations of subsection (a), the excess will be disposed of in accordance with the requirements of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System or such other method approved by the Internal Revenue Service.

(2) If the Annual Additions on behalf of a Participant for a Plan Year exceed the limitations of subsection (a) because the Participant is also participating in or has participated in a Related Plan, the Annual Additions with respect to the Participant under the other plan will, to the extent permitted by the other plan, be suspended or reduced until the limitations are satisfied. If the Participant has Annual Additions allocated on his behalf under more than one other Related Plan, suspensions or reductions will be made in reverse chronological order, beginning with the plan under which the Participant most recently was allocated an Annual Addition and ending with the plan under which the Participant least recently was allocated an Annual Addition. If the other Related Plan does not permit suspensions or reductions as a result of excess annual additions, reductions or suspensions will be made under this Plan.

(c) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 6.02, the following definitions and rules of interpretation will apply:

(1) Annual Additions means the sum of the following amounts:

(A) Pre-Tax Contributions, Roth Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, Matching Contributions, Retirement Contributions, Retirement Incentive Contributions, Discretionary Contributions, and Profit-Sharing Contributions allocated to a Participant’s Accounts under the Plan and similar contributions allocated to a Participant’s accounts under any Related Plan during the Plan Year;

(B) Forfeitures allocated to a Participant’s Accounts under this Plan and any Related Plan;

(C) Any amounts allocated to an individual medical account, as defined in section 414(l)(2) of the Code, that is part of a pension or annuity plan maintained by an Employer; and

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 25

(D) Any amounts derived from contributions for post-retirement medical benefits allocated to the separate account of a key employee (as defined in section 419(A)(d)(3) of the Code) under a welfare benefit plan (as defined in section 419(e) of the Code) maintained by an Employer.

(2) Compensation means (1) wages as defined in section 3401(a) of the Code and all other payments of compensation to an Employee by the Employer (in the course of the Employer’s trade or business) for which the Employer is required to furnish the Employee a written statement under sections 6041(d), 6051(a)(3), and 6052 of the Code, plus (2) any amounts deducted from a Participant’s earnings on a pre-tax basis for group health care coverage because the Employer does not request or collect information regarding the Participant’s other health care coverage as part of the enrollment process for the health plan, to the extent that the sum of these amounts is less than the applicable limitation under section 401(a)(17) of the Code. “Compensation” will not include compensation paid or made available to the Participant after the Participant’s termination of employment with the Employer or Affiliate, except regular pay (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.415(c)-2(e)(3)(i)) that is paid by the later of two and one-half months after the Participant terminates employment or the end of the Plan Year.

(3) Related Plan means any other plan or portion of a plan that is maintained by the Employer or an Affiliate and treated as a “defined contribution plan” under section 414(k) of the Code and Treasury Regulation section 1.415(c)-1(a)(2).

6.03 Nondiscrimination Tests.

(a) Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions. Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions (not including Catch-Up Contributions) of a Participant in the Test Group will not be given effect and the amounts otherwise deferred will constitute first Catch-Up Contributions (to the extent permitted under Section 4.03), and then After-Tax Contributions (to the extent permitted under Section 4.02), to the extent necessary to reduce the average of the Deferral Ratios of all Eligible Employees in the Test Group to the greater of the following amounts (the “Maximum Ratio”):

(1) 1.25 times the average of the Deferral Ratios of all Eligible Employees in the Base Group for the applicable Plan Year; or

(2) 2.0 times the average of the Deferral Ratios of all Eligible Employees in the Base Group, but not more than this average plus 2%, for the applicable Plan Year.

To the extent the recharacterization of Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions as Catch-Up Contributions or as After-Tax Contributions does not reduce the average of the Deferral Ratios to the amounts set forth in either subsection (1) or (2), the adjustment will be made by calculating the dollar amount of excess contributions for each affected Highly Compensated Employee

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 26

in the Test Group in the manner described in section 401(k)(8)(B) of the Code and Treas. Reg. § 1.401(k)-2(b)(2), and then returning first the Roth Contributions and then the Pre-Tax Contributions of each such Highly Compensated Employee with the then-largest dollar amount of Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions until the total amount of excess contributions that would be required to satisfy this subsection (a) is returned. Any amounts recharacterized pursuant to this subsection (a) will include income allocable to such amounts accrued through a date not more than seven days before such amount is recharacterized. Any amounts returned pursuant to this subsection (a) will include income allocable to such amounts accrued through the end of the Plan Year in which such contributions were made. The amount of income allocable to such amounts will be determined using a reasonable method that is (x) applied consistently for all corrective distributions to Participants for the Plan Year and (y) used by the Plan for allocating income to Participants’ Accounts. Matching Contributions and Retirement Incentive Contributions (including the earnings and losses thereon, as necessary) made on amounts recharacterized or returned pursuant to this subsection (a) will be forfeited.

The Plan will use the prior year testing method as provided in section 401(k)(3)(A) of the Code.

(b) After-Tax Contributions, Matching Contributions, and Retirement Incentive Contributions. The average of the Contribution Ratios of all Eligible Employees in the Test Group may not exceed the greater of the following amounts:

(1) 1.25 times the average of the Contribution Ratios of all Eligible Employees in the Base Group for the applicable Plan Year; or

(2) to the extent not prohibited by applicable regulations, 2.0 times the average of the Contribution Ratios of all Eligible Employees in the Base Group, but not more than this average plus 2%, for the applicable Plan Year.

Adjustment will be made by returning the After-Tax Contributions, by forfeiting unvested Matching Contributions or Retirement Incentive Contributions (including the earnings and losses thereon), and by distributing vested Matching Contributions or vested Retirement Incentive Contributions of each Participant in the Test Group.

Any such adjustment will be performed in a manner consistent with that provided for Pre-Tax Contributions and Roth Contributions in subsection (a), including the requirement to include income on amounts returned, forfeited, or distributed. The amounts forfeited pursuant to this subsection (b) will be used to reduce Matching Contributions or Retirement Incentive Contributions for the Plan Year in which the forfeiture occurs.

The Plan will use the prior year testing method as provided in section 401(m)(2)(A) of the Code.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 6.03 to the contrary, Eligible Employees who are included in a unit of employees covered by an agreement

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 27

that the Secretary of Labor finds to be a collective bargaining agreement will be tested separately under subsections (a) and (b) from Eligible Employees who are not included in a unit covered by such an agreement or excluded from such testing, as permitted by applicable law.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 28

ARTICLE 7. ALLOCATION TO ACCOUNTS

7.01 Accounts.

The Plan Administrator will create and maintain adequate records to disclose the interest in the Trust Fund of each Participant and Beneficiary. Such records will be in the form of individual accounts and credits and charges will be made to such accounts in the manner described in this Article 7.

The maintenance of individual accounts is only for accounting purposes, and a segregation of the assets of the Trust Fund to each account will not be required. Distributions and withdrawals made from an account will be charged to the account as of the date paid. Partial distributions and partial withdrawals will be allocated among a Participant’s applicable Accounts on a pro rata basis provided that partial distributions and withdrawals shall be allocated pursuant to a Participant’s election, if a Participant elects, to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator and at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, a different allocation.

7.02 Account Allocations.

The Accounts of Participants and Beneficiaries will be adjusted in accordance with the following:

(a) Income. As of each Valuation Date, each Investment Fund will be revalued separately.

(1) A Pre-Tax Catch-Up Subaccount, to which any pre-tax Catch-Up Contributions are credited; and

(2) A Roth Catch-Up Subaccount, to which any Roth Catch-Up Contributions are credited.

(f) Rollover Contributions. As of each Valuation Date, the Rollover Contributions received by the Trust Fund since the immediately preceding Valuation Date will be allocated to the Rollover Contribution Accounts of the Participants on whose behalf such contributions were made. The Rollover Contribution Account will consist of the following subaccounts:

(m) Profit-Sharing Contributions. As of each Valuation Date, the Profit-Sharing Contributions received by the Trust Fund since the immediately preceding Valuation Date will be allocated to the Profit-Sharing Contribution Accounts of the Participants on whose behalf such contributions were made.

7.03 Statement of Accounts.

The Plan Administrator will furnish each Participant, each Alternate Payee, and each Beneficiary of a deceased Participant, at least quarterly, a statement showing the value of his Accounts, the allocations to and distributions from his Accounts, and such other information as may be required by applicable law. No statement will be provided to a Participant or Beneficiary after the Participant’s entire vested and nonforfeitable interest in his Accounts is distributed.

7.04 Allocations Do Not Create Rights.

No Participant will acquire any right to or interest in any specific asset of the Trust Fund merely as a result of the allocations provided for in the Plan.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 31

ARTICLE 8. INVESTMENT ELECTIONS

8.01 Investment Funds.

(a) The Plan Administrator has the authority to direct the Trustee to maintain the assets of the Trust Fund in multiple Investment Funds so as to provide alternative investment vehicles for the assets of the Plan. The Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, has the authority to establish the number and type of Investment Funds, to establish additional Investment Funds (including the authority to establish a default fund) and to close, limit, or eliminate the availability of any of the Investment Funds.

Such separate Investment Funds may include a loan fund. The Loan Fund is not available to receive contributions and transfers of funds at the direction of a Participant, but will be administered solely in connection with loans to Participants pursuant to Article 11.

The Plan Administrator will have the authority (1) to charge any applicable fee against the appropriate Participant’s (or Beneficiary’s or Alternate Payee’s, as applicable) Accounts, and (2) to refuse any investment instruction that would violate an incorporated policy or practice.

Dividends, interest, and other distributions received on the assets held by the Trustee in each of the Investment Funds will be reinvested in that Investment Fund.

(b) Company Stock Fund. The Company Stock Fund will be an Investment Fund under the Plan.

(1) The Company Stock Fund will not be a managed investment fund and will be invested primarily in Company Stock at all times. The Company Stock Fund will be a unitized fund and as such will include cash or short-term liquid investments. The Plan Administrator will, after consultation with the Trustee, establish and communicate to the Trustee in writing a target liquidity percentage and drift allowance for such short-term liquid investments.

(2) The Company, as the settlor of the Plan, intends the Company Stock Fund to offer eligible employees opportunities to invest indirectly in Company Stock and to participate in the performance of Company Stock on terms similar to those that apply to Company shareholders. The Company intends the Company Stock Fund to offer such opportunities over an indefinite period of time during which the performance of Company Stock could vary widely. The Company intends the Company Stock Fund to continue to offer such opportunities under all market conditions and regardless of the current, recent, or historical performance of the Company or Company Stock (for example, regardless of whether, over any period of time (of whatever duration), the Company pays dividends to its shareholders and regardless of whether, over any period of time (of whatever duration), the market price of Company Stock (I) rises or falls, (II) is volatile or stable, or (III) is high or low in relation to any

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 32

reference point). The Company recognizes that an investment in an undiversified fund, such as the Company Stock Fund, is subject to greater risk than is an investment in a diversified fund, and the Company expects eligible employees to take that greater risk into account when deciding whether to participate (or to continue participating) in the Company Stock Fund.

(3) Because the purpose of the Company Stock Fund is to offer Eligible Employees opportunities to invest indirectly in Company Stock and to participate in the performance of such stock on terms similar to those that apply to Company shareholders, the Plan’s fiduciaries and administrators will not (I) disclose material non-public information regarding the Company or Company Stock to the Plan, to the Trustee or other Plan fiduciaries, or to Participants or their Beneficiaries or Alternate Payees before such information is publicly disclosed or (II) based on such non-public information (and before such information is publicly disclosed), cause the Plan, the Trustee or other Plan fiduciaries, or Participants or their Beneficiaries or Alternate Payees to take any action with respect to Company Stock (such as buying or selling Company Stock or directing funds into or out of the Company Stock Fund).

(4) Dividends received by the Company Stock Fund will be reinvested in additional shares of Company Stock (to the extent it is unnecessary to retain such dividends as cash to maintain the target liquidity percentage).

(c) The Plan will comply with the diversification requirements of section 401(a)(35) of the Code and Treasury regulations and other applicable guidance issued thereunder. In this respect, a Participant, Beneficiary, or Alternate Payee will be eligible to transfer all or part of the portion of his Account that is invested in the Company Stock Fund to any of the other available Investment Funds (to the extent available for transfers in), as provided in Section 8.03. In addition:

(1) The Investment Funds described in subsection (a) will include not less than three Investment Funds, other than the Company Stock Fund, into which a Participant, Beneficiary, or Alternate Payee may elect to transfer amounts invested in the Company Stock Fund. Each such additional Investment Fund will be diversified and have materially different risk and return characteristics.

(2) As currently provided in Section 8.03, Participants, Beneficiaries, and Alternate Payees will be provided with reasonable, periodic opportunities to direct the transfer described in paragraph (1), occurring not less frequently than quarterly; and

(3) except as provided in Treasury regulations and other applicable guidance, will not impose restrictions or conditions with respect to investment in the Company Stock Fund (other than restrictions or conditions imposed by reason of securities laws or designed to ensure compliance with such laws) which are not imposed on investments in other Investment Funds.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 33

(4) The Plan Administrator will notify Participants, Beneficiaries, and Alternate Payees of their diversification rights at the time, in the manner, and to the extent required pursuant to section 101(m) of ERISA and regulations and other guidance issued thereunder.

8.02 Investment Direction.

Amounts paid to Participants’ Accounts will be invested in such Investment Fund or Funds as the Participant will direct in an application filed with the Plan Administrator in such manner and form, and at such time, as the Plan Administrator prescribes; provided however, that:

(a) the amounts to be invested in the Investment Funds will be in integral multiples of one percent (1%) of the amounts contributed by or on behalf of the Participant under the Plan;

(b) that the sum of such percentages does not exceed 100 percent (100%); and

(c) the Participant may not elect for more than twenty-five percent (25%) of future contributions to be invested in the Company Stock Fund and may not elect to transfer amounts from other Investment Funds that would cause more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of his Accounts to be allocated to the Company Stock Fund.

A Participant’s investment election for his Pre-Tax Contributions (or Roth Contributions if no Pre-Tax Contributions) will also apply to his Roth Contributions, After-Tax Contributions, Catch-Up Contributions, Retirement Contributions, Retirement Incentive Contributions, and Matching Contributions unless the Participant elects otherwise in accordance with the Plan Administrator’s rules. If the Participant fails to make an investment election for all or any portion of his Account, the Trustee will invest the portion of the Participant’s Accounts for which no election is made in the default Investment Fund selected by the Plan Administrator. If part of a Participant’s Accounts are invested in an Insurance Contract, his investment directions will be subject to the additional rules provided in Section 8.06(c). If the Plan Administrator permits automatic rebalancing of a Participant’s Account, the automatic rebalancing will not cause any amounts to be transferred into or out of the Company Stock Fund.

8.03 Change in Investment Direction.

Any investment direction by a Participant pursuant to Section 8.02 will be deemed a continuing direction until changed by the Participant. A Participant may change his election by submitting his request with the Plan Administrator in the manner and form, and at such time, as the Plan Administrator prescribes; provided however, that the change in investment direction meets the requirements of Section 8.02. Such change will be implemented in accordance with the conditions and procedures prescribed by the Plan Administrator.

8.04 Voting of Company Stock.

Each Participant with an interest in the Company Stock Fund will have the right to direct the Trustee as to the manner in which the Trustee is to vote (including not to vote) that

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 34

number of shares of Company Stock reflecting such Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund. Directions from a Participant to the Trustee concerning the voting of Company Stock will be communicated in writing, or by such other means as is agreed upon by the Trustee and the Company. These directions will be held in confidence by the Trustee and will not be divulged to the Company, or any officer or employee thereof, or any other person except to the extent that the consequences of such directions are reflected in reports regularly communicated to any such persons in the ordinary course of the performance of the Trustee’s services. Upon its receipt of the directions, the Trustee will vote the shares of Company Stock reflecting the Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund as directed by the Participant. Except as otherwise required by law, the Trustee will vote shares of Company Stock reflecting the Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund for which it has received no direction from the Participant in the same proportion on each issue as it votes those shares reflecting Participants’ proportional interests in the Company Stock Fund for which the Trustee has received voting directions from Participants.

8.05 Tender and Exchange Offers.

Each Participant with an interest in the Company Stock Fund will have the right to direct the Trustee to tender or not to tender some or all of the shares of Company Stock reflecting such Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund. Directions from a Participant to the Trustee concerning the tender of Company Stock will be communicated in writing, or by such other means as is agreed upon by the Trustee and the Company. These directions will be held in confidence by the Trustee and will not be divulged to the Company, or any officer or employee thereof, or any other person except to the extent that the consequences of such directions are reflected in reports regularly communicated to any such persons in the ordinary course of the performance of the Trustee’s services. The Trustee will tender or not tender shares of Company Stock as directed by the Participant. Except as otherwise required by law, the Trustee will not tender shares of Company Stock reflecting a Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund for which it has received no direction from the Participant.

A Participant who has directed the Trustee to tender some or all of the shares of Company Stock reflecting the Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund may, at any time before the tender offer withdrawal deadline, direct the Trustee to withdraw some or all of the tendered shares reflecting the Participant’s proportional interest, and the Trustee will withdraw the directed number of shares from the tender offer before the tender offer withdrawal deadline. A Participant will not be limited as to the number of directions to tender or withdraw that the Participant may give to the Trustee.

A direction by a Participant to the Trustee to tender shares of Company Stock reflecting the Participant’s proportional interest in the Company Stock Fund, will not be considered a written election under the Plan by the Participant to withdraw, or have distributed, any or all of his withdrawable interest in the Plan. The Trustee will credit to each proportional interest of the Participant from which the tendered shares were taken the proceeds received by the Trustee in exchange for the shares of Company Stock tendered from the interest. Pending receipt of directions from the Participant or the Plan Administrator, in accordance with the Plan, as to which of the remaining Investment Funds the proceeds should be invested in, the Trustee will invest the proceeds in such Investment Fund as the Plan Administrator may prescribe in its discretion.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 35

All of the provisions of this Section 8.05 will apply to exchange offers as well as to tender offers.

8.06 Insurance Contract.

(a) Insurance Contracts are offered as an Investment Fund with respect to Participants who elected to make contributions to the Insurance Contracts or to transfer amounts from other Investment Funds to the Insurance Contract before January 1, 1987. No Participants are permitted to make an initial election to contribute to the Insurance Contracts pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.06, Participants who elected to make contributions to the Insurance Contracts before January 1, 1987, may increase the amount their Accounts contributed to Insurance Contracts to an amount equal to the premium costs associated with such Insurance Contracts. Participants are permitted to transfer amounts invested in an Insurance Contract to other Investment Funds pursuant to Section 8.03 only at the times and to the extent permitted under the Insurance Contract.

(b) The premiums for such Insurance Contracts are paid from the amounts allocated to the Participant’s Accounts, as designated by the Participant, from future contributions made on behalf of the Participant and from any amounts paid with respect to the Insurance Contract. If such amounts are insufficient to pay any premiums due on the Insurance Contract, the Plan Administrator will notify the Participant and the Insurance Contract will be surrendered to the insurance company and the proceeds will be invested in either the default Investment Fund selected by the Plan Administrator as the Participant so elects in accordance with Section 8.03, after being notified by the Plan Administrator that the Insurance Contract has been surrendered. Alternatively, the Participant may elect to have the Trustee pay the premiums on such Insurance Contract from the portion of the Participant’s Accounts invested in any other Investment Fund.

(c) If a Participant is permitted to invest a portion of his Account or future contributions in an Insurance Contract, the following rules apply to his investment directions:

(1) The provisions of Sections 8.02(b) and 8.02(c) will apply to any amounts contributed by or on behalf of the Participant under the Plan that remain after the appropriate amount is allocated to Insurance Contracts. For example, the Participant cannot elect for more than 25% of the value of his Account that is not invested in Insurance Contracts to be invested in the Company Stock Fund.

(2) The aggregate premiums paid for term life insurance under any Insurance Contract may not exceed 25 percent (25%), nor may the aggregate premiums paid for whole life insurance under any Insurance Contract exceed 50 percent (50%) of the Participant’s Pre-Tax Contribution Account, Catch-up Contribution Account, Employer Matching Contribution Account, and Rollover Account, at any particular time.

(d) After a Participant terminates employment with the Employer, the Participant may elect to terminate any Insurance Contract in which a portion of his Account is

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 36

invested. If the Participant elects to terminate the Insurance Contract, he will receive the entire value of an Insurance Contract as a single lump sum cash distribution.

8.07 Additional Rules.

(a) If a Participant dies, his Beneficiary has the same investment election rights as the Participant had before his death, until the Participant’s Account is distributed to the Beneficiary.

(b) The Plan is intended to constitute a plan described in section 404(c) of ERISA and Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, section 2550.404c-1. As such, the Plan’s fiduciaries will be relieved of liability for any losses that are the direct and necessary result of investment instructions given by a Participant or a Beneficiary.

(c) Each Participant is solely responsible for the selection of his investment options. The Trustee, the Plan Administrator, the Employer, and the officers, supervisors and other employees of the Employer are not empowered to advise a Participant as to the manner in which his accounts will be invested. The fact that an Investment Fund is available to Participants for investment under the Plan will not be construed as a recommendation for investment in that particular Investment Fund.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 37

ARTICLE 9. VESTING

9.01 Immediate Vesting.

A Participant will at all times be 100% vested in and have a nonforfeitable right to the value of his Pre-Tax Contribution Account, his Roth Contribution Account, his After-Tax Contribution Account, his Catch-Up Contribution Account, his Matching Contribution Account, and his Rollover Contribution Account. A Participant will be 100% vested in and have a nonforfeitable right to the value of his Discretionary Contribution Account unless otherwise provided in the written instrument providing for the Discretionary Contribution.

9.02 Delayed Vesting.

Unless an event described in Section 9.03 occurs earlier, a Participant will be 100% vested in and have a nonforfeitable right to the value of his Retirement Contribution Account, his Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, and his Profit-Sharing Contribution Account after completing three (3) Years of Service.

9.03 Vesting Upon Certain Events.

Each Participant will become fully vested in his Retirement Contribution Account, his Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, and his Profit-Sharing Contribution Account upon the first to occur of the following events:

(a) death while employed by the Employer and or an Affiliate;

(b) employment with the Employer and its Affiliates that terminates at or after the later of (1) a Participant’s 65^th birthday or (2) the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Participant’s commencement of participation in the Plan;

(c) becoming Disabled while employed by the Employer or an Affiliate;

(d) termination of the Plan;

(e) a partial termination of the Plan applicable to the Participant as provided in Section 18.02; or

(f) upon a sale or closing of a covered location, to the extent set forth in an applicable Exit Agreement.

9.04 Forfeitures.

(a) Upon termination of employment, a Participant who is not fully vested in his Retirement Contribution Account, Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, or Profit-Sharing Account will forfeit the entire unvested amounts in these Accounts as of the earlier of (1) the date on which he receives a distribution of his Retirement Contribution Account, Retirement Incentive Account, or Profit-Sharing Account, as applicable, or (2) the date on which he incurs a Period of Severance of at least five (5) years.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 38

(b) Any amounts forfeited under subsection (a) will be restored if the Participant is reemployed with the Employer or an Affiliate before incurring a Period of Severance of at least five (5) years. Such restored amounts will be allocated to the Participant’s Retirement Contribution Account, his Retirement Incentive Account, and his Profit-Sharing Account, as applicable. In addition, for purposes of Section 9.02, the Participant’s vested right to the amount so contributed will be determined based upon his Years of Service completed both before and after his Period of Severance.

(c) If a Participant who was eligible to receive Retirement Contributions, Retirement Incentive Contributions, or Profit-Sharing Contributions incurs a Period of Severance of less than five (5) consecutive years, such Employee’s Years of Service completed before the Period of Severance will be taken into account to determine the vested percentage of his Retirement Contribution Account, Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, or Profit-Sharing Account upon his reemployment by an Employer or an Affiliate, whether or not the Participant is again eligible to receive Retirement Contributions, Retirement Incentive Contributions, or Profit-Sharing Contributions.

(d) Retirement Contributions, Retirement Incentive Contributions, or Profit-Sharing Contributions forfeited in any Plan Year pursuant to this Section 9.04 will be applied (1) to reduce any future Employer Contributions, or (2) to pay reasonable expenses of administering the Plan. Any forfeitures used to reduce future Employer Contributions may be allocated among the types of Employer Contributions in any manner that the Plan Administrator or their designee deems to be appropriate.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 39

ARTICLE 10. WITHDRAWALS DURING EMPLOYMENT

10.01 Limited In-Service Withdrawals.

A Participant who has not terminated employment may request a distribution of all or part of his Account only as follows:

(a) Age 59 ¹⁄₂. A Participant who has attained age 59¹⁄₂ may request a distribution of all or a part of the vested portion of his Account. Such distribution will be made as soon as practicable following the Plan Administrator’s receipt of the Participant’s request for withdrawal in the form and manner required by the Plan Administrator and will be made in the form of a single lump sum payment.

(b) After-Tax Contribution Account. A Participant may withdraw all or part of his After-Tax Contribution Account, including after-tax contributions that have been transferred to the Plan from a plan that is merged into the Plan pursuant to Section 18.04. If a Participant’s After-Tax Contribution Account includes amounts attributable to after-tax contributions made before January 1, 1987, such contributions shall be withdrawn before amounts attributable to after-tax contributions made after December 31, 1986, or earnings on pre-1987 after-tax contributions.

(c) Hardship Withdrawal. A Participant may request a hardship withdrawal to the extent permitted by Section 10.02.

(d) Rollover Contribution Account. A Participant may withdraw all or part of his Rollover Contribution Account at any time.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount that is attributable to assets transferred from any defined benefit plan or any defined contribution plan subject to the funding standards of section 412 of the Code shall be distributable under this Section 10.01.

10.02 Hardship Withdrawals.

(a) A Participant who has not terminated employment may request, in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, a distribution in the event the Participant has a hardship as defined in subsections (b) and (c). Hardship withdrawals are limited to the excess of (1) the sum of the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account, Pre-Tax Contribution Account (excluding earnings), Roth Contribution Account (excluding earnings), Catch-Up Contribution Account (excluding earnings), and After-Tax Contribution Account (excluding earnings) over (2) the sum of (i) any outstanding loan the Participant may have and (ii) the sum of all prior distributions from such Accounts.

(b) A distribution will be made on account of hardship only if the distribution is necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant. For purposes of this Plan, a distribution is made on account of an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant only if the distribution is for:

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 40

(1) expenses for (or necessary to obtain) medical care that would be deductible under section 213(d) of the Code (determined without regard to whether the expenses exceed the adjusted gross income threshold specified in section 213(a) of the Code);

(2) costs directly related to the purchase of a principal residence for the Participant (excluding mortgage payments);

(3) the payment of tuition, related educational fees, room and board for up to the next twelve (12) months of post-secondary education for the Participant, his or her Spouse, children, or dependents (as defined in Code section 152, but without regard to sections 152(b)(1), (b)(2), and (d)(1)(B));

(4) payments necessary to prevent eviction of the Participant from his principal residence or foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant’s principal residence;

(5) the payment of burial or funeral expenses for the Participant’s deceased Spouse, child, parent other dependents (as defined in Code section 152, but without regard to section 152(d)(1)(B)); or

(6) expenses for the repair of damage to the Participant’s principal residence that would qualify for the casualty deduction under section 165 of the Code (determined without regard to whether the loss exceeds 10% of adjusted gross income).

(c) A distribution will be considered necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant only if all three (3) of the following requirements are satisfied:

(1) the distribution is not in excess of the amount required to relieve the immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant (taking into account the taxable nature of the distribution);

(2) the Participant has obtained (or is currently obtaining) all distributions, withdrawals, and loans available under the Plan and all other plans maintained by any Employer or any Affiliate other than hardship distributions and the Participant represents in writing, on forms provided by the Plan Administrator and by providing any documentation required by the Plan Administrator, that the need cannot be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, by reasonable liquidation of the Participant’s assets, to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause an immediate and heavy financial need, by cessation of Pre-Tax, Roth, After-Tax, and Catch-Up Contributions under the Plan, by withdrawals, distributions (other than hardship distributions) or nontaxable loans (at the time of the loan) from any plan maintained by any other entity by which the Participant is employed, or by borrowing from commercial sources on reasonable commercial terms; and

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 41

(3) the Plan Administrator determines that it can reasonably rely on the Participant’s written representation.

(d) Distributions pursuant to this Section will be made as soon as practicable following the Plan Administrator’s approval of the Participant’s written request for withdrawal and will be made in the form of a single lump sum payment. The Plan Administrator may request any documentation it may require from a Participant to make a determination that the Participant is eligible for a hardship withdrawal.

(e) A Participant who receives a hardship withdrawal under this Section 10.02 will be prohibited from making Pre-Tax, Roth, After-Tax, or Catch-Up Contributions under this Plan and elective deferrals and employee contributions under all other plans of the Employer or an Affiliate for six months after receipt of the distribution. An election to receive a hardship distribution will also constitute an election by the Participant to reinstate, as soon as administratively practicable after the expiration of the six-month suspension period described in this Section 10.02(e), the contribution and investment elections in effect for such Participant immediately before such suspension period.

(f) A hardship withdrawal fee, in an amount to be determined by the Plan Administrator annually, may be charged to each Participant receiving an approved hardship withdrawal and will be deducted from the Participant’s Account.

ARTICLE 11. LOANS

11.01 In General.

The Plan Administrator is authorized to administer a loan program under the Plan, pursuant to this Article 11. The loan program and this Article 11 are intended to comply with the requirements of section 4975(d)(1) of the Code and section 408(b)(1) of ERISA, and the regulations thereunder.

11.02 Eligibility for Loans.

Loans will be made available to Participants. Beneficiaries and Alternate Payees are not eligible to receive loans under the Plan.

11.03 Application for Loans.

A Participant may borrow from the Plan a portion of the balance of his Accounts, excluding his Retirement Contribution Account, Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, or Profit-Sharing Account by making application to the Plan Administrator in writing on a form designated by the Plan Administrator.

11.04 Treatment of Loans and Loan Repayments.

(a) The value of the Participant’s affected Accounts then invested in Investment Funds will be liquidated on a pro rata basis to the extent required to provide sufficient cash to make the loan, provided that no portion of a borrowed amount will be charged against Insurance Contracts unless value of amounts held in other Investment Funds is less than the borrowed amount and then only to the extent permitted under the Insurance Contract. The cash will be transferred to the Loan Fund from which all loans will be made.

(b) The investment earnings of the Loan Fund that are attributable to any loan made or renegotiated pursuant to the promissory note (including the interest on any such loan) will be allocated to a separate loan account established on behalf of the Participant who made or renegotiated the loan.

(c) As of each Valuation Date, the interest allocated pursuant to subsection (b), above, will be reallocated among and invested in the then available Investment Funds in the same proportions as the current Employee and Employer Contributions on behalf of the Participant are invested; provided that if no such contributions are being made on behalf of the Participant as of such Valuation Date, such interest will be invested in accordance with the Participant’s most recent allocation election pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 or, if the Participant fails to make an allocation election, in accordance with the default allocation provided under Section 8.02.

(d) A Participant’s repayment of the principal of a loan will reduce the Participant’s interest in the Loan Fund and will be invested as soon as practicable in the then available Investment Funds first, to repay any amount that may have been borrowed under the terms of any Insurance Contracts allocated to the Participant’s Accounts if such loan was originally charged against such Insurance

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 43

Contracts and second, in the same proportions as the current Employee and Employer Contributions on behalf of each such Participant are invested; provided that if no such contributions are then being made on behalf of the Participant, such repayments will be invested in accordance with the Participant’s most recent allocation election pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 or, if the Participant fails to make an allocation election, in accordance with the default allocation provided under Section 8.02 of the Plan.

11.05 Terms and Conditions of Loans.

All loans pursuant to the loan program will be made to Participants on the following terms and conditions:

(a) Amount. A loan will not be made to a Participant pursuant to the loan program unless, immediately after the loan is approved, the total outstanding balance of all loans made to the Participant pursuant to the loan program (including the loan that is then being approved) does not exceed 50% of the vested balance of the Participant’s Account less the value of the sum of any Retirement Contribution Account, Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, and Profit-Sharing Account; nor may any single loan pursuant to the loan program be for an amount that is:

(1) more than $50,000 (reduced by the excess (if any) of the highest outstanding balance of the loans made to the Participant pursuant to the loan program during the one-year period ending on the day before the date on which the loan is made over the outstanding balance of the loans made to the Participant pursuant to the loan program on the date on which the loan is made), or

(2) less than $1,000.

(b) Number of Outstanding Loans. A Participant may have no more than two (2) outstanding loans at any time. If a Participant already has an outstanding loan from his Accounts, he may apply for a second loan, provided that (1) if he has had more than one loan outstanding at any time in the last six (6) months, the application may be made no sooner than six (6) months after the repayment date for the first of the two loans that was repaid, (2) the limits described in subsection (a) are not exceeded by the total outstanding balance of the two loans, and (3) if the proceeds of the first loan were intended to be used by the Participant to acquire the principal residence of the Participant, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection (a), the proceeds of the second loan may not be used to acquire a principal residence and the Participant will be required to repay the amount of the second loan within five (5) years of the date of the loan.

(c) Loan Terms Must Be In Writing. The loan will be evidenced in a written instrument for the amount of the loan plus interest, executed by the Participant, on which the Participant will be personally liable and which will be payable to the Trustee. The written instrument will state the terms of the loan. The written instrument for the loan and the instrument granting the Plan a security interest in the Participant’s Account will be executed by the Participant.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 44

(d) Security. The loan will be secured by the Participant’s entire right, title, and interest in and to the portion of the balance of the Participant’s Account equal to the amount of the loan (up to 50% of the vested balance, excluding the balance in any Retirement Contribution Account, Retirement Incentive Contribution Account, and Profit-Sharing Account as of the time the loan is made). The Plan Administrator may request such other or further security as it deems necessary and prudent from time to time, in order to protect the Plan from risk of loss of principal or income if a default were to occur.

(e) Term of Loan. The term of the loan will be for at least 1 and not more than 5 years from the disbursement of the loan, except that the term of a loan to purchase principal residence for the Participant may be for not more than 10 years.

(f) Interest. The unpaid balance of any loan will bear interest at a reasonable fixed rate as determined by the Plan Administrator based on interest rates charged by commercial lending institutions for loans that would be made under similar circumstances.

(g) Repayment of Loan.

(1) Generally. The repayment of the loan will be made by payroll deduction, authorized by the Participant at the time of applying for the loan, in a level amount sufficient to amortize the balance of the loan, together with interest, over the term of the loan; provided that the Participant may prepay the loan in full, without penalty, at any time by payment in cash; and further provided that, if the Participant’s Compensation is insufficient to permit the repayment of the loan, together with interest, by payroll deduction, the Participant will make payments in cash of amounts sufficient to amortize the balance of the loan, together with interest, over the term of the loan. Payroll deductions will commence as of the payday for the first payroll period beginning on or after the date as of which the loan is made, or as soon thereafter as practicable, and will be made with the same frequency as the Participant is paid but not less frequently than quarterly.

(2) Leaves of Absence. If a Participant becomes Disabled or is on an approved unpaid leave of absence, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, waive payments for up to one (1) year and re-amortize the loan and establish a new loan payment schedule pursuant to which the loan will be repaid in full by the original maturity date of the Participant’s note and the number of installments due after the leave ends is not less than the number required under the terms of the original loan. The Plan Administrator may require loan payments made while Disabled or on a leave of absence to be made by Automated Clearing House.

(3) Military Service. If a Participant is absent during a period of qualified military service (within the meaning of Section 20.01, repayment will be waived during such period and, upon the Participant’s reemployment by an Employer within the time during which the Participant’s right to reemployment is protected by applicable law, the loan payment schedule

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 45

will resume with the original maturity date of the promissory note adjusted to reflect the period of qualified military service.

(h) Default. A failure to make a scheduled payment, or the filing of an application for a benefit distribution (other than a hardship withdrawal pursuant to Section 10.02 or a distribution on or after a Participant reaches age 59¹⁄₂ pursuant to Section 10.01(a)) under this Plan, or any other default event set forth by the Plan Administrator in the promissory note for a Participant’s loan will constitute events of default. If a Participant defaults on a loan and such failure is not cured on or before the last day of the quarter next following the quarter in which the event of default occurs, the unpaid principal and accrued interest due under the loan will be declared immediately payable in full and may be charged back against the Participant’s Accounts as a distribution at the earliest time that the Participant is entitled to receive a distribution under this Plan.

(i) Loan Fees. A loan origination fee, in an amount determined by the Plan Administrator annually, may be charged to each Participant obtaining a loan and will be deducted from the loan proceeds. In addition, a loan maintenance fee, in an amount determined by the Plan Administrator, may be charged to each Participant and will be deducted from such Participant’s Accounts for each Plan Year during which such loan is outstanding.

11.06 Rollover Loans.

The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, accept a rollover loan if permitted under Paragraph F of the applicable Adoption Agreement. Such loans will be subject to such rules and regulations as the Plan Administrator in its discretion may establish; provided, that unless expressly provided otherwise in an applicable Adoption Agreement, (a) a rolled over loan will not be accepted unless the entire account from which the loan was taken is transferred to the Plan, (b) any rolled over loan will remain subject to the terms of the promissory note in effect at the time of the rollover, and (c) a rolled over loan will count toward the limits set forth in Section 11.05 on the number of loans that may be outstanding.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 46

ARTICLE 12. DISTRIBUTION OF ACCOUNTS

12.01 Distribution Events.

If a Participant ceases to be an Employee or becomes Disabled while employed, all of his Accounts to the extent then vested under Article 9 will become distributable unless the Plan Administrator determines in good faith that under applicable law distribution cannot be made without risking the continuing qualified status of the Plan.

12.02 Forms of Distribution.

(a) When an Account becomes distributable to a Participant or Beneficiary, the Plan Administrator will direct the Trustee to distribute the Account in accordance with clause (1), (2) or (3) below:

(1) If a Participant ceases to be an Employee on account of death, the vested portion of his Account will be distributed to his Beneficiary in the form of a lump sum.

(2) If a Participant ceases to be an Employee or becomes Disabled, the Participant may elect, in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator regarding the election of distributions to receive all or a part of the vested portion of his Account in one of the following forms:

(A) one lump sum payment;

(B) payments made over a certain period specified by the Participant in monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual installments provided, however, that the period over which such payments are to be made may not exceed 15 years or, if shorter, the life expectancy of the Participant. In order to provide installment payments, the Plan Administrator will invest the remaining balance held in the Participant’s Account in accordance with Sections 8.02 or 8.03 pursuant to the instructions of the Participant. An annual administrative fee will be deducted from the Participant’s Account for installment payments in an amount determined by the Trustee. A Participant may elect at any time to receive all remaining installment payments, if any, in a single lump sum payment.

(b) Distributions will be in the form of cash, except that a Participant or Beneficiary whose benefit will be paid in the form of a lump sum, may request that any portion of the Participant’s Account that is invested in the Company Stock Fund be distributed in shares of Company Stock, plus cash for any fractional shares.

12.03 Timing of Distributions.

(a) Any distribution will be made as soon as administratively practicable after the Participant or Beneficiary, as the case may be, returns a completed benefit distribution form to the Plan Administrator. Subject to subsections (c) or (d), a Participant’s Account must be distributed no later than the 60th day after the close of the Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occurs:

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 47

(1) the Participant attains age sixty-five (65);

(2) the tenth anniversary of the year in which the Participant began to participate in the Plan; or

(3) the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Employer or an Affiliate;

provided, however, that the Participant may elect to defer distribution of benefits under the Plan until any time before his Required Beginning Date as defined in subsection (d)(2)(A).

Until benefits are distributed, a Participant’s Account will be held and invested in accordance with Sections 8.02 or 8.03 pursuant to the instructions of the Participant.

(b) If the Participant dies after distributions have commenced under Section 12.02(a)(2)(B), but before the total of a Participant’s Account has been distributed, the remainder of the Participant’s Account will be distributed at least as rapidly as the method of distribution in effect on the date of the Participant’s death.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection (a), if the value of a Participant’s Account (calculated by excluding the portion of the Participant’s Account attributable to his Rollover Contribution Account, and rollover contributions made to a plan that was merged with and into the Plan) is $5,000 or less, the Plan Administrator will pay such benefit in a single lump sum as soon as practicable after the retirement, termination, Disability or death of the Participant, and any such distribution to the Participant or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, will be in complete discharge of the Plan’s obligation with respect to such benefit. In the event of a mandatory distribution greater than $1,000 in accordance with this subsection (c), if the Participant does not elect to have such distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution directly in accordance with Section 13.01, then the Plan Administrator will pay the distribution in a direct rollover to an individual retirement plan designated by the Plan Administrator. For purposes of determining whether a mandatory distribution exceeds $1,000, a Participant’s Roth Contribution Account will be considered separately from the remainder of the Participant’s Account.

(d) Delay of Distributions.

The following provisions will apply to limit a Participant’s ability to delay the distribution of benefits.

(1) General Rules.

(A) The form and timing of all distributions under this subsection (d) will be in accordance with section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including the incidental death benefit requirements of section 401(a)(9)(G) of the Code, and Treasury Regulations under section 401(a)(9)

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 48

that were published on April 17, 2002 or any subsequent guidance interpreting section 401(a)(9) or any amendments thereto.

(B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection (d), a Participant or Beneficiary who would have been required to receive a distribution for 2009 pursuant to this subsection (d) but for the enactment of section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code (or for any subsequent year to which section 401(a)(9)(H) of the Code applies), and who would have satisfied the requirements of this subsection (d) by receiving a distribution that is (I) equal to the required minimum distribution under subsection (3) or (4) or (II) part of a series of substantially equal distributions that include such required minimum distribution, will not receive such distribution unless the Participant or Beneficiary elects to receive such distribution in the manner required by the Plan Administrator. For purposes of Section 13.02, a distribution elected by a Participant or Beneficiary pursuant to the preceding sentence will not be treated as an eligible rollover distribution.

(C) For purposes of this subsection (d), designated Beneficiary means a Beneficiary designated under the terms of the Plan who is an individual and otherwise meets the requirements of Treasury Regulation § 1.401(a)(9)-4.

(2) Time and Manner of Distribution.

(A) Required Beginning Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.03, the entire vested interest of each Participant’s Account will be distributed or begin to be distributed to such Participant not later than the Required Beginning Date. The “Required Beginning Date” for a five percent owner (as defined in section 416(i) of the Code), is April 1 following the calendar year in which he attains age 70¹⁄₂, regardless of whether he has terminated from employment with the Employer and its Affiliates. For all other Participants the “Required Beginning Date” is April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant either attains age 70¹⁄₂ or terminates employment, whichever is later. No minimum distribution payments will be made to a Participant under the provisions of section 401(a)(9) of the Code while he remains an Employee if the Participant is not a five percent owner as defined above.

(B) Death of Participant Before Distributions Begin. If the Participant dies before distributions begin, the Participant’s vested interest in his Account will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than as follows:

(I) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary then, except as provided in subsection (5), distributions to the surviving Spouse will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 49

following the calendar year in which the Participant died, or by December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age 70 1/2 if later.

(II) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is not the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary, distributions to the designated Beneficiary will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the year in which the Participant died.

(III) If there is no designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.

(IV) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary and the surviving Spouse dies after the Participant but before distributions to the surviving Spouse are required to begin, this paragraph (B) other than clause (I) will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the Participant.

(C) Form of Distribution. Unless the Participant’s interest is distributed in a single sum on or before the Required Beginning Date, distributions will be made in accordance with subsection (3) or (4). If the Participant’s interest is distributed in the form of an annuity purchased from an insurance company, distributions will be made in accordance with the requirements of Code section 401(a)(9) and the regulations thereunder.

(3) Required Minimum Distribution During Participant’s Lifetime.

(A) Amount of Required Minimum Distribution for Each Calendar Year. During the Participant’s lifetime, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each calendar year is the lesser of:

(I) the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s vested account balance by the distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Treasury Regulation § 1.401(a)(9)-(9), using the Participant’s age as of the Participant’s birthday in the distribution calendar year; or

(II) if the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary for the distribution calendar year is the Participant’s Spouse, the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s vested account balance by the distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Treasury Regulation § 1.401(a)(9)-(9), using the Participant’s and Spouse’s attained ages as of the Participant’s and Spouse’s birthdays in the distribution calendar year.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 50

The amount of each installment will be based on the value of the Participant’s Account as of the Valuation Date most recently preceding the first day of the Plan Year with respect to which the installment is payable. The life expectancy of the Participant (or of the Participant and the designated Beneficiary) will be redetermined annually.

(B) Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions Continue Through Year of Participant’s Death. Required minimum distributions will be determined under this subsection beginning with the first calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year that contains the Participant’s Required Beginning Date and continuing up to and including the calendar year that includes the Participant’s date of death.

(4) Required Minimum Distributions After Participant’s Death.

(A) Death On or After Date Distributions Begin.

(I) Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is a designated Beneficiary, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s vested Account balance by the longer of the remaining life expectancy of the Participant’s designated Beneficiary, determined as follows:

(i) The Participant’s remaining life expectancy is calculated using the age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced by one for each subsequent year;

(ii) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary, the remaining life expectancy of the surviving Spouse is calculated for each distribution calendar year after the year of the Participant’s death using the surviving Spouse’s age as of the Spouse’s birthday in that year. For distribution calendar years after the year of the surviving Spouse’s death, the remaining life expectancy of the surviving Spouse is calculated using the age of the surviving Spouse as of the Spouse’s birthday in the calendar year of the Spouse’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent calendar year.

(iii) If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is no the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary, the designated Beneficiary’s remaining life expectancy

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 51

is calculated using the age of the Beneficiary in the year following the year of the Participant’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent year.

(II) No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is no designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year after the year of the Participant’s death, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s account balance by the Participant’s life expectancy calculated using the age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced by one for each subsequent year.

(B) Death Before Date Distributions Begin.

(I) Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is a designated Beneficiary, except as provided in subsection (5), the minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by the dividing the Participant’s vested Account balance by the remaining life expectancy of the Participant’s designated Beneficiary, determined as provided in subsection (A)(I).

(II) No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is no designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year after the year of the Participant’s death, distribution of the Participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.

(III) Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distributions to Surviving Spouse Are Required to Begin. If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin, the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole designated Beneficiary, and the surviving Spouse dies before distributions are required to begin to the surviving Spouse under subsection (2)(B)(I), this subsection (B) will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the Participant.

(5) Election of 5-Year Rule. Participants or Beneficiaries may elect on an individual basis whether the 5-year rule in subsections (2)(B)(II) and (4)(B)(II) applies to distributions after the death of a Participant who has a Designated Beneficiary. The election must be made no later than the earlier of September 30 of the calendar year in which the distribution would be required to begin under subsection (2)(B)(II) if no such election is made, or by September 30 of the calendar year which contains the fifth

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 52

anniversary of the Participant’s (or, if applicable, surviving spouse’s) death.

12.04 Beneficiaries.

(a) A Participant may designate as his Beneficiary any natural or legal person or entity to whom the Trustee will pay the Participant’s interest in the Plan in the event of his death. The Participant will make such designation in such form as the Plan Administrator will determine, and will file the designation with Plan Administrator. Such designation may include contingent Beneficiaries. The Participant may change the Beneficiaries so designated from time to time by filing a new designation with the Plan Administrator according to the rules adopted by it without the consent of or notice to any Beneficiary previously designated by him, subject to subsection (c). A designation may not be changed by will. The right of any Participant to designate or change the designation of a Beneficiary will continue after the termination of his employment until he has died or received payment of his full interest in the Plan. Any change in the designation of a Beneficiary will not be recognized if it is delivered to the Plan Administrator after the death of the Participant. Upon the death of a Beneficiary after the death of the Participant but before payment in full to such Beneficiary, the Trustee will pay such unpaid benefit to the estate of such deceased Beneficiary, unless there exists a surviving secondary Beneficiary designated by the Participant as eligible to receive any unpaid benefit upon the death of the deceased Beneficiary.

(b) If any Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary, or if the Beneficiary designated by a deceased Participant dies before the Participant, then the Trustee will pay the unpaid vested benefit of the deceased Participant to the first of the following classes of surviving beneficiaries in successive preference by class:

(1) the Participant’s surviving Spouse;

(2) the Participant’s children and issue of deceased children, in equal shares, per stirpes;

(3) the Participant’s parents in equal shares, or to the surviving parent;

(4) the Participant’s estate.

Any such designation made by the Plan Administrator in good faith as to the rights or identity of any Beneficiary will be conclusive on all persons. The Plan Administrator and its delegates, Trustee, and the Employer will not be liable to any person on account of any error in such designation. Any payment made in accordance with this Section 12.04 will fully acquit and discharge the Plan Administrator and its delegates, and the Employer from all future liability with respect to the benefit so distributed.

(c) Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Section 12.04, any benefit payable under the Plan with respect to a Participant who is married at the time of his death will be payable only to the Participant’s surviving Spouse, if any, unless such surviving Spouse has consented in writing witnessed by a Plan

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 53

representative or a notary public, to another designated Beneficiary. The Plan Administrator will not recognize the Spouse’s consent unless it is filed with the Plan Administrator before the Participant’s death. In addition, the married Participant’s designation of a Beneficiary with the consent of the Participant’s Spouse must be made in accordance with subsection (a) and is subject to subsection (a) and this subsection (c). The specified Beneficiary will not be changed unless further consent by the Spouse is given, unless the Spouse expressly waives the right to consent to any future changes. Any spousal consent will be applicable only to the particular Spouse who provides such consent. This requirement for spousal consent may be waived by the Plan Administrator if it is established to its satisfaction that there is no Spouse, or that the Spouse cannot be located, or because of such other circumstances as may be established by applicable law. Moreover, spousal consent will not be required for a Participant’s designation of any person as a secondary Beneficiary who is eligible for benefits upon the death of the Participant’s Spouse.

12.05 Proof of Death and Right of Beneficiary or Other Person.

The Plan Administrator may require and rely on such proof of death and such evidence of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the value of the Plan benefits of a deceased Participant as the Plan Administrator may deem proper, and its determination of death and the right of that Beneficiary or other person to receive payment will be conclusive.

12.06 Distributions to Minors and Incompetents.

Any distribution of benefits under the Plan that is payable to a Beneficiary who is a minor will be paid to the legally appointed custodian of such Beneficiary. If any Participant or Beneficiary entitled to receive benefits under the Plan is, in the opinion of the Plan Administrator, unable to manage his affairs by reason of physical illness, infirmity or mental incompetency, the Plan Administrator may direct that benefits to which the Participant or Beneficiary is otherwise entitled be distributed for the benefit of such Participant or Beneficiary to the legal representative of such Participant or Beneficiary. Any payment made in accordance with this Section 12.05 will fully acquit and discharge the Plan, the Plan Administrator, and the Employer from all future liability with respect to the benefit so distributed.

12.07 Missing Payees.

Subject to Section 12.03(c), if a portion of an Account remains to be distributed to a Participant or Beneficiary at a time when the Plan Administrator is unable, after taking reasonable action, to locate the Participant or Beneficiary, and the Participant or Beneficiary fails to contact the Plan Administrator within a period of time set forth in the Plan Administrator’s “Uncashed Benefit Check Administrative Policy” after being notified of his right to receive such distribution by a letter sent to the address on file with the Plan Administrator, then such Account will be applied to reduce the amount of contributions that the applicable Employer Unit would otherwise be required to contribute to the Plan, but if the Participant or Beneficiary later asserts a proper claim for such distribution, or if the person who would be entitled to receive such distribution upon the death of such Participant or Beneficiary establishes that such Participant or Beneficiary has died, then such account will first be restored, without any earnings adjustment, out of forfeitures for

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 54

the Plan Year, and the Employer Unit will contribute any additional amount necessary to restore such Account.

12.08 Recovery of Overpayment.

If any person receives a payment from the Plan in excess of the amount to which he is entitled under the terms of the Plan, the person is obligated to return such payment to the Plan, and the Plan may bring an action to recover such payment. In addition, the Plan may recover the amount overpaid from any future payments to the person.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 55

ARTICLE 13. DIRECT ROLLOVERS

13.01 Direct Rollover.

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a Distributee’s election under this Article 13, a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid in a Direct Rollover.

13.02 Eligible Retirement Distribution.

An Eligible Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee; except that such term will not include any distribution that is:

(a) one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee’s designated beneficiary, for a specified period of ten years or more;

(b) any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code;

(c) a hardship withdrawal made pursuant to Section 10.02; or

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 56

(h) with respect to a distribution (or portion of a distribution) consisting of after-tax employee contributions, an eligible retirement plan will include only (1) an individual retirement account or annuity described in section 408(a) or (b) of the Code (not including an endowment contract) or (2) a qualified trust described in section 401(a) of the Code or an annuity contract described in section 403(b) of the Code that provides for separate accounting for the amounts transferred, including separately accounting for the portion of such distribution that is includible in gross income and the portion of such distribution that is not so includible;

(i) if the Distributee is a beneficiary who is not a surviving Spouse or a Spouse or former Spouse who is an Alternate Payee, an Eligible Retirement Plan will include only an individual retirement account or annuity described in section 408(a) or (b) of the Code (not including an endowment contract);

(j) with respect to a distribution (or portion of a distribution) consisting of amounts in a Roth Contribution Account, In-Plan Roth Conversion Account, or Roth Rollover Subaccount, an eligible retirement plan shall include only another Roth elective deferral account under an applicable retirement plan described in section 402A(e)(1) of the Code or a Roth IRA described in section 408A, and, in either case, only to the extent such rollover is permitted under sections 402(c) and 402A of the Code.

A Distributee means (a) an Employee or former employee, (b) an Employee’s or former employee’s surviving Spouse, (c) an Employee’s or former employee’s Spouse or former Spouse who is an Alternate Payee, and (c) a Beneficiary.

A Distributee other than a non-Spouse Beneficiary may elect, once each calendar quarter in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, an In-Plan Roth Conversion.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 57

distribution. The taxable amount of the In-Plan Roth Conversion shall be includible in the Distributee’s income for the taxable year of the Distributee in which the conversion occurs in accordance with section 402A of the Code, unless otherwise required by the Code.

The Committee may make any decision or take any action at a meeting duly called and held, or by written documents signed by the minimum number of Committee members empowered to take action or make decisions at that time. The members may delegate to each or any of their number authority to perform ministerial acts or to sign documents on behalf of the Committee, and a document so signed will be conclusively presumed to be the action of the Committee.

(d) Committee Compensation. The Committee members will serve without compensation.

14.03 Committee Powers.

The Committee will have the specific powers elsewhere granted to it and will have such other powers as may be necessary in order to enable it to discharge its responsibilities with respect to this Plan, including, but not by way of limitation, the sole discretionary authority to do the following:

(a) To interpret and construe this Plan and to determine all questions arising under this Plan, other than those specifically reserved for determination by the Company or the Plan Administrator, and to correct any ambiguity or supply any

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 59

omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan in such manner and to such extent as they will deem expedient to effectuate the purposes and intent of this Plan;

(b) To determine all questions of eligibility and status and rights of Participants and others under this Plan, either directly or on appeal. The Committee will have the exclusive discretionary authority to determine eligibility for benefits under the Plan, to construe the terms of the Plan, to make factual determinations and to determine any question that may arise in connection with the operation or the administration of the Plan. The actions and the decisions of the Committee will be conclusive and binding upon the Employer and any and all Participants, Spouses, Beneficiaries, Alternate Payees and their respective heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, or assignees; subject, however, to the right of Participants, Spouses, Beneficiaries, Alternate Payees and their respective heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, or assignees to file a written claim under the claims procedure as set forth in Article 15;

(c) To authorize and make, or cause to be made, payment of all benefits and expenses that become payable under this Plan;

(d) To adopt and to amend from time to time such by-laws and rules and regulations as they will deem necessary for the administration of this Plan, which are not inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this Plan;

(e) To establish reasonable procedures to determine whether a domestic relations order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and for payments to be made pursuant to such Order in accordance with Section 17.03; and

(f) To collect any required contributions payable under the Plan that are not timely made.

14.04 Designation of Additional Fiduciaries.

The Board of Directors may designate, in writing, one or more persons or entities to serve as a named fiduciary of the Plan, in addition to or in lieu of the Committee. Such designation will describe such person’s or entity’s fiduciary responsibilities.

14.05 Allocation of Duties.

The Committee and the Plan Administrator may further allocate their fiduciary responsibilities with respect to this Plan among themselves pursuant to section 405(c)(1)(A) of ERISA, and may designate one or more other persons, firms or corporations to carry out such fiduciary responsibilities under this Plan pursuant to section 405(c)(1)(B) of ERISA. Any allocation or designation pursuant to this Section 14.05 will be in writing.

14.06 Employment of Agents.

The Committee or other appropriate fiduciary may enlist the services of such agents, representatives and advisers as they may deem advisable to assist them in the

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 60

performance of their duties under this Plan, including, but not by way of limitation, custodial agents for the Trust Fund and attorneys and accountants.

14.07 Expenses.

Reasonable expenses incident to the operation of the Plan, including fees for professional services and the costs of such other technical or clerical assistance as may be required, including reasonable fees and expenses of custodial agents, attorneys, accountants and other advisers, will be paid from the Trust Fund. The Company may, in its discretion, initially pay any expense that normally would be charged to the Trust Fund and later obtain reimbursement from the Trust Fund, including years after the costs were incurred. Reimbursement is available even where, at the time of the Company’s initial payment of the expense, it is not clear that the Company may lawfully seek reimbursement from the Trust Fund, but the Company’s legal right to reimbursement is later clarified.

14.08 Liability for Contributions.

The Committee will not be responsible for the determination or collection of any contributions that may be or become payable under this Plan.

14.09 Participation of Committee Members and Other Fiduciaries.

Nothing contained in this Plan will preclude a Committee member or other fiduciary from becoming a Participant in this Plan, if he be otherwise eligible, but he will not be entitled to vote or to act upon or to sign any document relating primarily to his own participation in this Plan.

14.10 Books and Records.

The Committee and other appropriate fiduciary will maintain appropriate records of all actions taken. The Committee and the Plan Administrator will submit, make available or deliver on request to governmental agencies or instrumentalities, the Company and other Employer Units, Participants, Beneficiaries and other persons entitled thereto, such reports, documents or records as may be required by law, or as they may otherwise deem appropriate. The Company may, at any time, inspect the records of the Committee and the Plan Administrator.

14.11 Indemnification.

To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and save each Committee member, each former Committee member, the Plan Administrator and each former Plan Administrator if, while serving as such, he is or was an Employee (each such person being an “Indemnitee”), and their respective heirs and legal representatives, harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense including reasonable attorney’s fees (collectively, “liability”) that any such person may incur individually, jointly, or jointly and severally, arising out of or in connection with the administration of this Plan, including, without limitation of the foregoing, any liability that may arise out of or in connection with the management and control of the Trust Fund, unless such liability is determined to be due to willful breach of the Indemnitee’s responsibilities under this Plan, under ERISA, or other applicable law.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 61

ARTICLE 15. CLAIMS PROCEDURE

15.01 Claim.

Any person or entity claiming a benefit, requesting an interpretation or ruling under the Plan (a “Claimant”), or requesting information under the Plan may present the request in writing to the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator will respond in writing within ninety (90) days after receipt of the claim, provided that the Plan Administrator may extend this period for an additional ninety (90) days by providing written notice of the extension to the Claimant within the original 90-day period. Such notice will indicate the circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to make a determination of the claim.

15.02 Denial of Claim.

If the claim or request is denied, the written notice of denial will state:

(a) the reasons for denial, with specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based;

(b) a description of any additional material or information required for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why the material or information is necessary; and

(c) an explanation of the Plan’s claim review procedure, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA if the claim denial is denied (in whole or in part) on appeal.

Whether a document, record or other information is relevant for purposes of this Section 15.02 will be determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion in accordance with 29 C.F.R. § 2560.503-1(m)(8).

15.03 Review of Claim.

Any Claimant whose claim or request is denied or who has not received a response within the time limits set forth above may request a review by notice given in writing to the Plan Administrator. Such request must be made within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Claimant of the written notice of denial, or, in the event Claimant has not received a timely response, within 60 days after the date the Plan Administrator was required to respond to the claim under Section 15.01. The claim or request will be reviewed by the Plan Administrator which may, but will not be required to, grant the Claimant a hearing. On review, the claimant may have representation, examine documents determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion to be relevant to the Claimant’s claim for benefits, and submit documents, records, and comments in writing.

15.04 Final Decision.

The decision on review will normally be made within sixty (60) days after the Plan Administrator’s receipt of Claimant’s claim or request; provided that, under special circumstances, including for a hearing, the Plan Administrator may extend this period for an additional sixty (60) days by providing written notice of the extension to the Claimant

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 62

within the original 60-day period. Such notice will indicate the circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to make a determination on review. If the Plan Administrator extends the period for making a decision, the tolling rule set forth in 29 C.F.R. § 2560.503-1(i)(4) will apply to the extent applicable.

If the claim or request is denied on final review, the notice of denial will state the following:

(a) the reasons for denial, with specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based;

(b) a statement concerning the Claimant’s right to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim;

(c) a description of any voluntary appeals procedures offered by the Plan; and

(d) a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA.

Whether a document, record or other information is relevant for purposes of this Section 15.04 will be determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion in accordance with 29 C.F.R. § 2560.503-1(m)(8).

15.05 Litigation.

An “Applicable Claim” as described below in subsection (c) may not be filed in any court:

(a) until the Claimant has exhausted the claims procedures described in Sections 15.01 through 15.04; and

(b) unless such claim or action is filed in a court with jurisdiction over such claim or action no later than two years after:

(1) in the case of a claim or action to recover benefits allegedly due to the Claimant under the terms of the Plan or to clarify the Claimant’s rights to future benefits under the terms of the Plan, the earliest of (a) the date the first benefit payment was actually made, (b) the date the first benefit payment was allegedly due, or (c) the date the Plan first repudiated its alleged obligation to provide such benefits (regardless of whether such repudiation occurred during administrative review pursuant to Sections 15.01 through 15.04);

(2) in the case of a claim or action to enforce an alleged right under the Plan (other than a right to benefits, which are subject to subsection (b)(1)), the date the Plan first denied the claimant’s request to exercise such right, regardless of whether such denial occurred during administrative review pursuant to Sections 15.01 through 15.04;

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 63

(3) in the case of any other claim or action described in subsection (c)(4), the earliest date on which the claimant knew or should have known of the material facts on which such claim or action is based, regardless of whether the claimant was aware of the legal theory underlying the claim or action,

provided that if a request for administrative review pursuant to Sections 15.01 through 15.04 is pending before the Plan Administrator when the two-year period described in this subsection (b) expires, the deadline for filing such claim or action in a court with proper jurisdiction will be extended to the date that is 60 calendar days after the final denial (including a deemed denial) of the claim on administrative review.

The period described by this subsection (b) is hereafter referred to as the “Applicable Limitations Period.” The Applicable Limitations Period replaces and supersedes any limitations period ending at a later time that otherwise might be deemed applicable under state or federal law in the absence of this Section 15.05. Except as provided in the following two sentences, a claim or action filed after the expiration of the Applicable Limitations Period will be deemed time-barred. The Plan Administrator will have discretion to extend the Applicable Limitations Period upon a showing of exceptional circumstances that, in the opinion of the Plan Administrator, provide good cause for an extension. The exercise of this discretion is committed solely to the Plan Administrator, and is not subject to review. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither this subsection (b) nor the Applicable Limitations Period will apply to a claim governed by section 413 of ERISA.

(c) For purposes of this Section 15.05, an Applicable Claim is:

(1) a claim or action to recover benefits allegedly due under the provisions of the Plan or by reason of any law;

(2) a claim or action to clarify rights to future benefits under the terms of the Plan;

(3) a claim or action to enforce rights under the Plan; or

(4) any other claim or action that:

(A) relates to the Plan, and

(B) seeks a remedy, ruling, or judgment of any kind against the Plan, the Plan Administrator, or other fiduciary (within the meaning of section 3(21) of ERISA), or a party in interest (within the meaning of section 3(14) of ERISA) with respect to the Plan.

(d) In the event of any Applicable Claim brought by or on behalf of two or more Claimants, this Section 15.05, including the Applicable Limitations Period, will apply separately with respect to each Claimant.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 64

15.06 Class Action Forum Selection.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, any putative class action lawsuit brought in whole or in part under section 502 of ERISA (or any successor provision) and relating to the Plan, the administration of the Plan, management or investment or handling of Plan assets, the Trust, or the performance or non-performance of Plan fiduciaries or administrators must be filed in one of the following jurisdictions:

(1) the jurisdiction in which the Plan is principally administered; or

(2) the jurisdiction in which the largest number of putative class members resides as determined by the Plan Administrator based on records maintained by the Plan Administrator (or if that jurisdiction cannot be determined, the jurisdiction in which the largest number of class members is reasonably believed to reside).

(b) If any putative class action within the scope of subsection (a) is filed in a jurisdiction other than one of those described in subsection (a), or if any non-class action filed in such a jurisdiction is subsequently amended or altered to include class action allegations, then the Plan, any Plan affiliates, and all alleged Plan participants must take all steps necessary to have the action removed to, transferred to, or re-filed in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a). Such steps may include, but are not limited to:

(1) a joint motion to transfer the action; or

(2) a joint motion to dismiss the action without prejudice to its re-filing in a jurisdiction described in subsection (a), with any applicable time limits or statutes of limitations applied as if the suit or class action allegation had originally been filed or asserted in a jurisdiction in subsection (a) at the same time that it was filed or asserted in a jurisdiction not described therein.

(c) This forum selection provision is waived if no party invokes it within 120 days of filing a putative class action or the assertion of class action allegations.

(d) This Section 15.06 does not relieve the Plan or any putative class member of any obligation existing under the Plan or by law to exhaust administrative remedies before initiating litigation or to comply with the limitations of actions provision set forth in Section 15.05.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 65

ARTICLE 16. MANAGEMENT OF FUNDS

16.01 Trust Agreement.

A Trust Fund currently known as the AMETEK Retirement and Savings Trust (the “Trust” or the “Trust Fund”) has been established by the execution of trust agreements with one or more Trustees and is maintained for the purposes of this Plan. Each Employer Unit will make contributions under this Plan to the Trust for purposes of providing benefits under the Plan.

16.02 Designation of Trustee.

There will be one or more trustees, either corporate or individual, in each case appointed and subject to removal by the Company. In case of death, incapacity, resignation or removal of any Trustee, a successor will be appointed by the Company.

16.03 Exclusive Benefit Rule.

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no part of the corpus or income of the funds of the Plan will be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and other persons entitled to benefits under the Plan before satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to them. No person will have any interest in or right to any part of the earnings of the funds of the Plan, or any right in, or to, any part of the assets held under the Plan, except as and to the extent expressly provided in the Plan.

16.04 Appointing Investment Managers.

The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, appoint one or more investment managers (within the meaning of section 3(38) of ERISA) to manage, invest and reinvest the Trust Fund, or such part or parts of the Trust Fund as is specified in such appointment. Any appointment made pursuant to this Section 16.04 may be revoked or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time and a new appointment made.

16.05 No Guarantee.

The Employer, the Plan Administrator, and the Trustee do not guarantee the Participants or their Beneficiaries against loss or depreciation or fluctuation of the value of the assets of the Trust Fund.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 66

ARTICLE 17. ASSIGNMENTS OR LIENS

17.01 No Alienation.

Except as provided in Section 17.03 or permitted by section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code, no right, benefit or interest of any Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan may be made subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt or arrangement on the part of any person so to do will be void.

17.02 No Liability for Obligation.

Except as provided in Section 17.03 or permitted by section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code, no right, benefit, or interest will in any way be subject to or liable for the debts, contracts, commitments, obligations, liabilities or torts of any Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan or subject to attachment, execution, garnishment, sequestration, seizure or legal, equitable, or other process for or against such person and any attempt or arrangement on the part of any person so to do will be void.

17.03 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 17.01 or 17.02, the Plan Administrator will direct the Trustee to honor and comply with the provisions of a domestic relations order which the Plan Administrator determines to constitute a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, as defined in section 414(p) of the Code. Nothing contained in this Plan prevents the Trustee, in accordance with the direction of the Plan Administrator, from complying with the provisions of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (as defined in section 414(p) of the Code). The Plan Administrator will establish procedures to determine the status of a judgment, decree or order as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and to administer Plan distributions in accordance with Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 14.07, reasonable expenses incurred by the Plan Administrator to determine whether a domestic relations order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order may be paid from the Accounts of the Participant to whom such Order relates. Any payment made by the Plan Administrator pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order will reduce, by a like amount, the amount otherwise payable under the Plan to the Participant to whom such Order relates or his Beneficiary, as the case may be.

17.04 Distributions Under Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.

This Plan specifically permits distribution to an Alternate Payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order at any time, irrespective of whether the Participant has attained his earliest retirement age (as defined under Code section 414(p)) under the Plan. A distribution to an Alternate Payee before the Participant’s attainment of earliest retirement age is available only if: (1) the Qualified Domestic Relations Order specifies distribution at that time or permits an agreement between the Plan and the Alternate Payee to authorize an earlier distribution; and (2) if the present value of the Alternate Payee’s benefits under the Plan exceeds $5,000 and the Qualified Domestic Relations Order requires, the Alternate Payee consents to any distribution occurring before the Participant’s attainment of earliest retirement age. Nothing in this Section 17.04 permits a Participant a right to receive distribution at a time otherwise not permitted under the

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 67

Plan nor does it permit the Alternate Payee to receive a form of payment not permitted under the Plan.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 68

ARTICLE 18. AMENDMENT, MERGER OR TERMINATION

18.01 Amendment of Plan.

The Board of Directors, at a meeting or by unanimous written consent, may amend, terminate or suspend this Plan at any time or from time to time by an instrument in writing duly executed in the name of the Company and delivered to the Committee; provided, however, that:

(a) No amendment will provide for the use of the assets of this Plan or any part thereof other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries;

(b) The Committee may amend the Plan, without action or approval by the Board of Directors, to modify the maximum percentage of Compensation that may be deferred by Highly Compensated Employees;

(c) No amendment will deprive any Participant or Beneficiary of any of the benefits that are vested in him or to which he is entitled under this Plan by reason of the prior Years of Service, death, Disability or termination of employment of such Participant;

(d) If the Internal Revenue Service requires that one or more amendments be adopted to the Plan as a condition of receiving a favorable determination letter, and the representative of the Company with respect to the application for the determination letter agrees in writing to the adoption of such amendments, such amendments will, upon the issuance of the requested determination letter, be deemed to have been adopted, automatically and without further action by the representative, the Company, or the Board of Directors, effective as of the date or dates specified in such amendments; and

(e) This Plan may be amended at any time and from time to time in any respect so as to qualify this Plan pursuant to section 401(a) of the Code and to comply with the provisions of ERISA, regardless of whether any such amendment may change, alter or amend the relative benefits under this Plan of any Participant or Beneficiary.

18.02 Termination of Plan.

The Company will have the right, in its sole discretion, at any time, to suspend or discontinue its contributions under the Plan, and to terminate at any time, in whole or in part, this Plan and the Trust. To the extent practicable, a termination will be effected by resolution of the Board of Directors and written notice thereof will be given by an instrument in writing executed by the Company and filed with the Trustee and Committee. The Plan will also be considered terminated as of the date that the Company is dissolved or liquidated or disposes of substantially all of its assets without providing for any successor person, firm or corporation to continue the Plan.

Whether a partial termination has occurred depends on all the relevant facts and circumstances, as determined by the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service. No Participant will have any right to be vested under Section 18.03(a) on account of a partial termination unless and until the Commissioner makes such a determination.

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 69

18.03 Vesting and Distribution of Assets on Plan Termination or Complete Discontinuance of Contributions.

(a) Vesting.

Upon complete or partial termination of this Plan, or complete discontinuance of contributions to this Plan, a Participant who is affected by the complete or partial termination or discontinuance will be vested in the balance of his Accounts, determined as of the date of complete or partial termination or the discontinuance.

(b) Distribution.

Upon complete or partial termination of this Plan, or complete discontinuance of contributions to this Plan, the value of each affected Participant’s account will be distributed in accordance with this subsection (b) to the extent consistent with applicable law. Except as otherwise provided by ERISA, there will first be set aside amounts due to Participants who have terminated employment and who were not previously paid pursuant to the provisions of Article 12, and the amount to which any such Participant is entitled will be paid to him or his duly designated Beneficiary, as the case may be. The proportionate interest of each other Participant in the remaining assets of the Trust Fund will then be determined in accordance with Article 7 except that the value of such proportionate interest will be determined as of the date of termination of this Plan. There will be paid to each Participant or his duly designated Beneficiary, as the case may be, the benefit thus determined pursuant to this Section 18.03, plus his proportionate share of any earnings thereon, or less his proportionate share of any losses thereon, if applicable. Provision for the payment of benefits pursuant to this Section 18.03 may be made at the direction of the Company, by continuing the Trust Fund in existence and making provision therefrom for benefit distributions in accordance with the terms of this Plan, by immediate and full distribution from the Trust Fund of Participants’ Accounts, or by any combination thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 18.03, following the termination of the Plan, a distribution of a Participant’s Pre-Tax Contribution Account, Roth Contribution Account, or Catch-Up Contribution Account will not occur if the Employer establishes or maintains a successor plan (as defined under section 401(k) of the Code and the corresponding Treasury regulations).

18.04 Merger or Consolidation.

Pursuant to action of the Board of Directors:

(a) the Plan may be merged or consolidated with, or a portion of its assets and liabilities may be transferred to, another plan meeting the requirements of section 401(a) of the Code or any successor provision of law, or

(b) a portion of the assets and liabilities of another such plan may be transferred to the Plan,

provided such merger, consolidation or transfer is accompanied by a transfer of such existing records and information as may be necessary to properly allocate such assets among Participants and to provide any tax or other necessary information to the persons administering the Plan or receiving the assets, and further provided that each Participant or Beneficiary will be entitled to receive a benefit immediately after such merger,

The AMETEK Retirement and Savings Plan Page 70

consolidation or transfer (if this Plan or such other plan were then terminated) which is at least equal to the benefit the Participant or Beneficiary would have been entitled to receive immediately before such merger, consolidation or transfer (if this Plan or such other plan had been terminated).

(a) 5 percent (5%) of the Non-Key Employee’s Total Compensation for the Plan Year; or

(b) the percentage necessary in order that the Non-Key Employee receive the minimum combined benefits under this Plan and such defined benefit pension plan to which he is entitled under section 416 of the Code.
