INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY

ELECTED OFFICERS SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAM

(As Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2003, including Amendments through June 2, 2004)

Introduction

Ingersoll-Rand Company (the "Company") adopted the Ingersoll-Rand Company Elected Officers Supplemental Program (the "Program") effective June 30, 1995 to provide retirement benefits to certain individuals employed by the Company in addition to the benefits provided from other qualified and non‑qualified plans maintained by the Company.  This amendment and restatement of the Program is effective as of January 1, 2003 including amendments through June 2, 2004 and supersedes the prior provisions of the Program.

The Program is intended to be treated as a plan which is unfunded and maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Generally, the provisions of the Program as set forth herein shall apply only to an Employee who terminates employment on or after January 1, 2003.  The rights and benefits, if any, of an Employee who terminated employment prior to January 1, 2003 shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Program in effect on the date he terminated employment.

ARTICLE 5

DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1            Retirement

                Employee retirement distributions under the Program shall be as follows:

                (a)         Normal Retirement ‑ An Employee shall retire and receive the benefit under Section 3.1 upon attaining age 62, provided
                             that the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (or in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, the Board) may request an
                             Employee to remain in the employ of the Company after the Employee has attained age 62.

                (b)        Early Retirement ‑ An Employee may retire under the Program at any time after he becomes vested in accordance with Section                             4.1.  In the event he retires before age 62, he will receive a benefit under the Program in accordance with Section 5.5.  Such
                            benefit shall be equal to the benefit he would have received at age 62 under Section 3.1, provided however that:

                                   (i)    the amount determined under Section 3.1(a) shall be reduced by 0.429% for each month that the benefit
                                          commences prior to age 62,

                                   (ii)    the benefit offset amount derived from defined benefit plans, as identified in Appendix A and as adjusted for
                                           retirement at the earliest date on which the Employee may retire and begin receiving a benefit under such defined
                                           benefit plans and as further adjusted, if necessary, to the Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit payable on the date
                                           benefits under the Program commence, shall be as determined under the applicable plans irrespective of whether the
                                           Employee elects to receive a benefit under such plans, and

                                  (iii)    for years prior to Social Security normal retirement age, the Social Security Primary Insurance Amount (as defined in
                                          Appendix A) shall be reduced by the same factors used by the Social Security Administration to adjust benefits
                                          payable at age 62 or later, and by .3% for each month that benefits under the Program commence prior to age 62.

                (c)        Late Retirement ‑ If an Employee retires after age 62 as provided under (a) above, he will receive a benefit equal to the greater
                             of:

                                  (i)    the benefit determined under Section 3.1 as of his date of retirement, or

                                  (ii)   the benefit he would have received had he retired at age 62, credited with interest from the date he attained age 62 until
                                         his date of retirement. For purposes of this subsection (ii), the interest rate will be equal to the average of the monthly
                                         rates for ten-year Constant Maturities for US Treasury Securities for the twelve-month period immediately preceding
                                         the month prior to the month in which a determination of benefit occurs, such rate as published in Federal Reserve
                                         statistical release H.15(519).

5.2       Form of Distribution

            (a)        Unless the Employee elects to make a deferral under subsection (b) below benefits under the Program shall be payable solely in a
                         single lump sum as determined under Section 3.1 as of his date of retirement.  The lump sum amount, determined as of the date of
                         the Employee's retirement, shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the benefit under Section 3.1 adjusted, if applicable, to reflect the
                         provisions of Section 5.1.  Prior to May 29, 2003, the lump sum distribution determined under this Section 5.2 shall be credited
                         with interest at a rate equal to the rate of return earned by the Money Market Portfolio of the Ingersoll-Rand Company Employee
                         Savings Plan from the Employee's date of retirement until the date of distribution.  Effective May 29, 2003, the lump sum
                         distribution determined under this Section 5.2 shall be credited with interest at a rate equal to the average of the monthly rates for
                         ten-year Constant Maturities for US Treasury Securities for the twelve-month period immediately preceding the month prior to the
                         month in which a determination of benefit occurs, such rate as published in Federal Reserve statistical release H.15(519), from the
                         Employee's date of retirement until the date of distribution.

            (b)        Effective January 1, 2003, an Employee may file a deferral election under the Deferral Plan at least one year in advance of the
                         Employee's date of termination of employment to defer the payment of the lump sum determined under subsection (a) above.  In
                         the event a valid deferral election is made under the Deferral Plan, the payment of the lump sum amount that otherwise would have
                         been paid under this Section 5.2 shall be credited to the Deferral Plan as of the date the lump sum amount would have been paid
                         had a valid deferral election not been made.

            (c)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Employee who retires under the Program on or after January 1, 2003 but before May 29, 2003
                         may elect within the 30-day period immediately preceding his date of retirement to have his lump sum payment determined as of
                         his date of retirement using an alternative interest rate.  The alternative interest rate used to determine the Actuarial Equivalent
                         benefit payable in a lump sum shall be the interest rate equal to the 10-Year Treasury Note rate as published in The New York
                         Times in the Key Rate Table under the Credit Market Section, or, if such rate is unavailable, as provided by Telerate, in both
                         cases as of the business day immediately preceding the date payment is made to the Employee.  In the event an Employee elects to
                         have his benefit determined under this paragraph, no interest will be payable from the Employee's date of retirement until the date
                         of distribution.

5.3                   Disability

                         An Employee who becomes disabled and who remains continuously disabled until attaining age 65 shall continue to accrue benefits
                         under the Program as if he continued to be employed by the Company.  Such Employee shall receive an immediate lump sum
                         payment determined under Sections 3.1 and 5.2 of the Program as of the Employee's 65th birthday.

                        Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program to the contrary, when determining Final Average Pay for an Employee who is
                        disabled under the provisions of this Section, Final Average Pay means the sum of:

                        (a)        the average of each of the five highest bonus awards (whether the awards are paid to the Employee, are a Deferral Amount
                                    (as such term is defined in the Deferral Plan) or the Employee has elected to forego a bonus award pursuant to the Estate
                                     Program) during the six most recent calendar years, including the year during which the Employee's disability occurs, (or, if
                                     the average of the five highest bonus awards would be greater, the six most recent calendar years prior to the year in which
                                     the Employee's disability occurs), but excluding Supplemental Contributions (as such term is defined in the Deferral Plan)
                                     or any amounts paid from the Deferred Compensation Account (as such term is defined in the Deferral Plan) or any other
                                     account under the Deferral Plan including, but not limited to, amounts paid consisting of Deferral Amounts and
                                     Supplemental Contributions and their earnings, and any amounts paid by the Company pursuant to the Estate Program,
                                     and

                        (b)        the Employee's annualized base salary in effect as of the date he becomes disabled.

                        An Employee who is no longer disabled under this Section and who returns to the employ of the Company or an affiliated
                        company, shall be entitled to accrue benefits under this Section for the period of his disability.

                        An Employee who is no longer disabled under this Section and who does not return to the employ of the Company or an affiliated
                        company, shall not be entitled to accrue any benefits under this Section for any portion of the period of his disability.

                         For purposes of the Program, an Employee shall be disabled if he is unable to continue to perform the duties of his position due to
                         a physical or mental impairment.

5.4                   Death

                        In the event that an Employee dies prior to retirement, his beneficiary shall receive a lump sum payment determined under Sections
                        3.1 and 5.2 of the Program as of the date of the Employee's death as if the Employee retired on the date of his death; provided that
                         if the Employee's death occurs prior to his attainment of age 55, his benefit shall be reduced by .3% for each month that the benefit
                         commences before the Employee would have reached age 65.  The Employee's beneficiary under the Program shall be the
                         beneficiary under the Ingersoll-Rand Company Employee Savings Plan unless the Employee designates another beneficiary in
                         writing, and such written designation has been received by the Committee prior to the date of death.  An Employee may change
                         the designated beneficiary under the Program at any time by providing such designation in writing to the Committee.  Effective June
                         2, 2004, the Employee's beneficiary(ies) and the percentage(s) of the benefit payable under the Program to such beneficiary(ies)
                         shall be the same as the Employee's beneficiary(ies) and percentage(s) under the Pension Plan.

5.5                    Payment of Benefits

                         Unless the Employee makes a deferral election as described in Section 5.2(b), the benefit under this Program shall be paid as soon
                         as practicable following the Employee's retirement or death.  Effective May 29, 2003, the benefit under the Program shall be
                         paid on the later of (i) the first business day of the sixth month following the Employee's retirement or death, or (ii) the
                         first business day of the calendar year following the Employee's retirement or death.

                         In the event an Employee is disabled in accordance with Section 5.3, his benefit shall be paid on the first day of the month
                         following the date that the Employee attains age 65.


ARTICLE 6

FUNDING

6.1                    Funding

                         Except as provided in Section 8.9 hereof, the Company shall have no obligation to fund the benefit that an Employee earns under
                         the Program.

6.2                    Company Obligation

                        Notwithstanding the provisions of any trust agreement or similar funding vehicle to the contrary, the Company shall remain
                        obligated to pay benefits under the Program.  Nothing in the Program or any trust agreement shall relieve the Company of its
                        liabilities to pay benefits under the Program except to the extent that such liabilities are met by the distribution of trust assets.

                    In the event that a Change in Control has occurred, the Company shall be obligated to establish a trust and to contribute to the trust an
                    amount necessary to fund the accrued benefit earned by the Employee under the Program (assuming immediate benefit
                    commencement) as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding the date the Board determines that a Change in
                    Control has occurred.  If the Employee shall not have attained age 55, his annual benefit shall be determined on the same basis used to
                    determine his accrued benefit in the case of death as specified in Section 5.4.

7.2               Amendments

                    Following a Change in Control of the Company, any amendment modifying or terminating the Program shall have no force or effect.


ARTICLE 8

MISCELLANEOUS

8.1            Amendment and Termination

                Except as provided in Section 7.2 hereof, the Program may, at any time and from time to time, be amended or terminated without the
                consent of any Employee or beneficiary, (a) by the Board, or (b) in the case of amendments which do not materially modify the
                provisions hereof, the Committee or such other committee appointed by the Board; provided, however, that no such amendment or
                termination shall reduce any benefits accrued under the terms of the Program prior to the date of termination or amendment.

8.2           NoContract of Employment

                The establishment of the Program or any modification hereof shall not give any Employee or other person the right to remain in the
                 service of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and all Employees and other persons shall remain subject to discharge to the same
                 extent as if the Program had never been adopted.

8.3            Withholding

                The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any payment due under the Program any and all taxes of any nature required by any
                government to be withheld from such payment.

8.4           Loans

                No loans to Employees shall be permitted under the Program.

8.5          Compensation Committee

               The Program shall be administered by the Committee (or any successor committee) of the Board.  The primary responsibility of the
               Committee is to administer the Program for the exclusive benefit of the Employees and their beneficiaries, subject to the specific terms of
               the Program.  The Committee shall administer the Program in accordance with its terms to the extent consistent with applicable law, and
               shall have the power to determine all questions arising in connection with the administration, interpretation, and application of the
               Program.  Any such determination by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding upon all affected parties. Any denial by the
               Committee of a claim for benefits under the Program by an Employee or beneficiary shall be stated in writing by the Committee and
               delivered or mailed to the Employee or beneficiary.  Such notice shall set forth the specific reasons for the Committee's decision.  In
               addition, the Committee shall afford a reasonable opportunity to any Employee or beneficiary whose claim for benefits has been denied
               for a review of the decision denying this claim.

8.6       Entire Agreement; Successors

            The Program, including any subsequently adopted amendments, shall constitute the entire agreement or contract between the Company and
            any Employee regarding the Program.  There are no covenants, promises, agreements, conditions or understandings, either oral or written,
            between the Company and any Employee regarding the provisions of the Program, other than those set forth herein.  Effective May 29,
            2003, notwithstanding the previous sentence, to the extent any written agreement between the Company and an Employee modifies the
            provisions of the Program with respect to the Employee, such agreement shall be deemed to modify the provisions of the Program but only
            to the extent such agreement is approved by the Committee.  The Program and any amendment hereof shall be binding on the Company
            and the Employees and their respective heirs, administrators, trustees, successors and assigns, including but not limited to, any successors
            of the Company by merger, consolidation or otherwise by operation of law, and on all designated beneficiaries of the Employee.

8.7       Severability

            If any provisions of the Program shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Program shall not be affected
            thereby, and each provision of the Program shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

8.8       Governing Law

            The laws of the State of New Jersey shall govern the Program.

8.9       Participant as General Creditor

            Benefits under the Program shall be payable by the Company out of its general funds. The Company shall have the right to establish a
            reserve or make any investment for the purposes of satisfying its obligations hereunder for payment of benefits at its discretion, provided,
            however, that no Employee eligible to participate in the Program shall have any interest in such investment or reserve.  To the extent that
            any person acquires a right to receive benefits under the Program, such rights shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general
            creditor of the Company.

8.10     Nonassignability

            To the extent permitted by law, the right of any Employee or any beneficiary in any benefit hereunder shall not be subject to attachment or
            any other legal process for the debts of such Employee or beneficiary nor shall any such benefit be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale,
            transfer, assignment or encumbrance.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this amendment and restatement to be executed by its duly authorized representative on this 31st day of December, 2004.

APPENDIX A

Unless otherwise specified in another Appendix attached hereto, the sum of the following shall be used for purposes of Section 3.1(b) of the Program:

                (a)                 All employer-paid benefits under any qualified defined benefit plan (as defined in Section 414(j) of the Internal Revenue
                                     Code of 1986, as amended) and associated supplemental plans sponsored by the Company.  For purposes of this
                                     Paragraph (a), the amount of any pension payable under the Clark Equipment Company Retirement Program for Salaried
                                     Employees shall be determined without reduction by the lifetime pension equivalent of the Employee's vested interest in his
                                     PPOA Account (as such term is defined in the I-R/Clark Leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan).

                                    For purposes of determining the benefit under Section 3.1 of the Program, the Employee's benefit, if any, under any
                                    qualified defined benefit plan and associated supplemental plans described in the previous paragraph, shall be determined
                                    as a lump sum at the date of determination.

                (b)               The Social Security Primary Insurance Amount (as defined below) estimated at age 65, multiplied by a fraction, the
                                    numerator of which is his Years of Service (up to a maximum of 35 Years of Service), and the denominator of which is 35.

                                    For purposes of the Program, "Social Security Primary Insurance Amount" means the amount of the Employee's annual
                                    primary old age insurance determined under the Social Security Act in effect at the date of determination and payable in
                                    accordance with (i) or (ii) below.

                                                (i)    For benefits determined on or after age 65, payable for the year following his date of retirement or death.

                                                (ii)    For benefits determined before the Employee attains age 65, payable for the year following his retirement or
                                                        death (or which would be payable when he first would have become eligible if he were then unemployed),
                                                        assuming he will not receive after retirement (or death) any income that would be treated as wages for
                                                        purposes of the Social Security Act.

                                For purposes of determining the Social Security Benefit under paragraphs (i) and (ii) above, an Employee's covered earnings
                                under said Act for each calendar year preceding the Employee's first full calendar year of employment shall be determined by
                                multiplying his covered earnings subsequent to the year being determined by the ratio of the average per worker total wages
                                as reported by the Social Security Administration for the calendar year being determined to such average for the calendar year
                                subsequent to the year being determined.

                                The "Social Security Primary Insurance Amount" determined above shall be converted to a lump sum using the factor
                                determined under Section 3.1(a)(iv).

                    (c)        An Employee's accrued benefit under any qualified defined benefit pension plan (as defined in Section 414(j) of the Internal
                                Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) and any nonqualified pension plan with respect to any business that was acquired by the
                                Company ("Acquired Business"), (each such pension plan shall be referred to in this Paragraph (c) as a "Former Plan"), shall
                                be used for purposes of Section 3.1(b) of the Program if the Employee:

                                        (i)    was an employee of the Acquired Business on the date it was acquired by the Company,

                                        (ii)    became an employee of the Company as a result of the acquisition of the Acquired Business, and

                                        (iii)    was granted vesting service under any qualified defined benefit pension plan (as defined in Section 414(j) of the
                                                 Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) sponsored by the Company, any domestic entity in which the
                                                 Company owns (directly or indirectly) a 50% or more interest, and any other entity designated by the Company
                                                 for service performed while an employee of the Acquired Business.

                                 The Employee's accrued benefit under the Former Plan shall be determined as a life annuity payable as of the date of
                                 determination, using the Former Plan's early retirement factors, if applicable, and converted to a lump sum using the factor
                                 determined under Section 3.1(a)(iv).

                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph (c), if the Committee determines that the accrued benefit under a
                                 Former Plan cannot reasonably be calculated due to lack of information about the Former Plan or otherwise, the provisions
                                 of this Paragraph (c) shall not apply with respect to such Former Plan.
