Agreements with Gregory T. Troy. As described in Item 5.02 below, in connection with Mr. Gregory Troy’s appointment as the Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer of Modine Manufacturing Company (the “Company”), on February 20, 2006, Mr. Troy entered into a Change in Control and Termination Agreement with the Company.

In the event of a "Change in Control," as defined in Mr. Troy's Change in Control and Termination Agreement, at any time during the 24 months after a Change in Control occurs, if Mr. Troy is terminated without "Good Cause" or if Mr. Troy terminates the Agreement for “Good Reason” or for any reason during the thirteenth month following a Change in Control, a 24-month "Severance Period" would be triggered during which Mr. Troy would be entitled to receive an amount equal to two times the greater of: (A) the sum of his base salary and target bonus or (B) the sum of his five-year average base salary and five-year average actual bonus, payable in a lump sum within 60 days after the date of termination of employment. In addition, Mr. Troy would receive an amount equal to the pro rata portion of the target bonus for the calendar year in which his employment terminated. In the event of Mr. Troy’s death, such amounts would be payable to his beneficiary.

In addition, in the event of a Change in Control, any stock options or stock awards would immediately vest, or restrictions lapse, as the case may be, on the date of termination. In the event a Change in Control occurs, and if payments made to Mr. Troy were subject to the excise tax provisions of Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, Mr. Troy would be entitled to receive a lump sum payment, sufficient to cover the full cost of such excise taxes and his federal, state and local income and employment taxes on the additional payment.

In addition to the above Agreement, the Company issued to Mr. Troy 1,294 shares of Modine restricted stock, which will vest in four annual installments beginning on February 20, 2007, and 3,773 options to buy Modine common stock, exercisable on and after February 20, 2007.

ITEM 5.02.     Departure of Directors or Principal Officers, Election of Directors, Appointment of Principal Officers.

(ii)the amount, if any, actually allocated to Executive’s Accounts during such year;

(B)Each Supplemental Defined Contribution Benefit shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum no later than 60 days after the end of each applicable calendar year during the Severance Period;

(C)In the event of Executive’s death prior to the end of the Severance Period, the Supplemental Defined Contribution Benefit shall continue to accrue for the duration of the Severance Period on the same basis as if Executive had not died. Such Supplemental Defined Contribution Benefit shall be payable to Executive’s Beneficiary at the same time and manner as such Benefit would have been paid to Executive.

(4)If upon the date of termination of Executive's employment Executive holds any options with respect to stock of Employer, all such options will immediately become vested and exercisable upon such date and will be exercisable for 36 months thereafter. Any restrictions on stock of Employer owned by Executive on the date of termination of his employment will lapse on such date.

(5)During the Severance Period, Executive and his spouse and other dependents will continue to be covered by all Welfare Plans maintained by Employer in which he and his spouse and other dependents were participating immediately prior to the date of his termination as if he continued to be an employee of Employer and Employer will continue to pay the costs of coverage of Executive and his spouse and other dependents under such Welfare Plans on the same basis as is applicable to active employees covered thereunder; provided that, if participation in any one or more of such Welfare Plans is not possible under the terms thereof, Employer will provide substantially identical benefits. For purposes of the continuation of Executive’s group health plan coverage required under Code Section 4980B, to the extent permitted by the applicable group health plan, (i) the period of extended coverage referred to in Code Section 4890B(f)(2)(B)(i)(I) shall commence on the first date that follows the end of the Severance Period, and (ii) the applicable notice period provided under Code Section 4980B(f)(6)(B) shall commence on the first date that follows the end of the Severance Period.

(b)If the employment of Executive with Employer is terminated by Employer or Executive other than under circumstances set forth in subsection 3(a), Executive's Base Salary shall be paid through the date of his termination, and Employer shall have no further obligation to Executive or any other person under this Agreement. Such termination shall have no effect upon Employee's other rights, including but not limited to, rights under the Welfare Plans.

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event Employer shall terminate the employment of Executive for Good Cause hereunder, Employer shall give Executive at least thirty (30) days prior written notice specifying in detail the reason or reasons for Executive's termination.

(d) This Agreement shall have no effect, and Employer shall have no obligations hereunder, if Executive's employment terminates for any reason at any time other than during the 24 months following a Change in Control.

4. Excise Tax. (a) In the event that a Change in Control shall occur, and a final determination is made by legislation, regulation, ruling directed to Executive or Employer, by court decision, or by independent tax counsel described in subsection (b) next below, that the aggregate amount of any payment made to Executive (1) hereunder, and (2) pursuant to any plan, program or policy of Employer in connection with, on account of, or as a result of, such Change in Control (“Total Payments”) will be subject to the excise tax provisions of Section 4999 of the Code, or any successor section thereof, Executive shall be entitled to receive from Employer, in addition to any other amounts payable hereunder, a lump sum payment (the “Gross-Up Payment”), sufficient to cover the full cost of such excise taxes and Executive’s federal, state and local income and employment taxes on this additional payment, so that the net amount retained by Executive, after the payment of all such excise taxes on the Total Payments, and all federal, state and local income and employment taxes and excise taxes on the Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the Total Payments. The Total Payments, however, shall be subject to any federal, state and local income and employment taxes thereon. For this purpose, Executive shall be deemed to be in the highest marginal rate of federal, state and local taxes. The Gross-Up Payment shall be made at the same time as the payments described in subsections 3(a)(1) and (2) above.

(b)Employer and Executive shall mutually and reasonably determine the amount of the Gross-Up Payment to be made to Executive pursuant to the preceding subsection. Prior to the making of any such Gross-Up Payment, either party may request a determination as to the amount of such Gross-Up Payment. If such a determination is requested, it shall be made promptly, at Employer's expense, by independent tax counsel selected by Executive and approved by Employer (which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. Employer shall provide such information as such counsel may reasonably request, and such counsel may engage accountants or other experts at Employer's expense to the extent that they deem necessary or advisable to enable them to reach a determination. The term "independent tax counsel," as used herein, shall mean a law firm of recognized expertise in federal income tax matters that has not previously advised or represented either party. It is hereby agreed that neither Employer nor Executive shall engage any such firm as counsel for any purpose, other than to make the determination provided for herein, for three years following such firm's announcement of its determination.

(c)In the event the Internal Revenue Service subsequently adjusts the excise tax computation made pursuant to subsections 4(a) and (b) above, Employer shall pay to Executive, or Executive shall pay to Employer, as the case may be, the full amount necessary to make either Executive or Employer whole had the excise tax initially been computed as subsequently adjusted, including the amount of any underpaid or overpaid excise tax, and any related interest and/or penalties due to the Internal Revenue Service.

5.Setoff. No payments or benefits payable to or with respect to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by any amount Executive or his spouse or Beneficiary may earn or receive from employment with another employer or from any other source.

6.Mitigation. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of compensation and benefits set forth above by seeking employment with others, or otherwise.

7.Death. If Executive's employment with Employer terminates under circumstances described in subsections 3(a) or (b), then upon Executive's subsequent death, all unpaid amounts payable to Executive under subsections 3(a)(1) or (2) or 3(b), or Section 4, if any, shall be paid to his Beneficiary, all amounts payable under subsection 3(a)(3) shall be paid pursuant to the terms of said subsections to his spouse or other beneficiary under the applicable plan, and if subsection 3(a) applies, his spouse and other dependents shall continue to be covered under all applicable Welfare Plans during the remainder of the Severance Period, if any, pursuant to subsection 3(a)(6).

8.Confidentiality. Executive agrees not to disclose (during the Term or at any time thereafter) to any person not employed by the Employer, or not engaged to render services to the Employer, except with the prior written consent of an officer authorized to act in the matter by the Board of Directors of Employer, any confidential information obtained by him while in the employ of the Employer, including, without limitation, information relating to any of the Employer’s inventions, processes, formulae, plans, devises, compilations of information, methods of distribution, customers, client relationships, marketing strategies or trade secrets; provided, however, that this provision shall not preclude the Executive from use or disclosure of information known generally to the public or of information not considered confidential by persons engaged in the business conducted by the Employer or from disclosure required by law or court order. The Agreement herein made in this Section 8 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation or derogation of, any obligation otherwise imposed by law upon the Executive in respect of confidential information and trade secrets of the Employer and its Affiliates.

9.Forfeiture. If Executive shall at any time violate any obligation of his under Section 8 in a manner that results in demonstrably material injury to the Employer, he shall immediately forfeit his right to any benefits under this Agreement, and Employer shall thereafter have no further obligation hereunder to Executive or his spouse, Beneficiary or any other person.

10.Executive Assignment. No interest of Executive, his spouse or any Beneficiary, or any other beneficiary under the plans, under this Agreement, or any right to receive any payment or distribution hereunder, shall be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind, nor may such interest or right to receive a payment or distribution be taken, voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the obligations or debts of, or other claims against, Executive or his spouse, Beneficiary or other beneficiary, including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance, and claims in bankruptcy proceedings.

11.Benefits Unfunded. All rights under this Agreement of Executive and his spouse, Beneficiary or other beneficiary under the plans, shall at all times be entirely unfunded, and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of Employer for payment of any amounts due hereunder. None of Executive, his spouse, Beneficiary or any other beneficiary under the plans shall have any interest in or rights against any specific assets of Employer, and Executive and his spouse, Beneficiary or other beneficiary shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Employer. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, the Officer Nominating and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Employer, in its discretion, shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to cause amounts payable or potentially payable to Executive or his Beneficiary hereunder to be paid to the trustee of a Rabbi Trust or any similar trust to be established by Employer (“Trust”).

12.Waiver. No waiver by any party at any time of any breach by the other party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions or conditions at the same time or at any prior or subsequent time.

13.Litigation Expenses. Employer shall pay Executive's reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses in connection with any judicial proceeding to enforce, construe or determine the validity of this Agreement (“Litigation”), if Executive is a Prevailing Party in such Litigation. Executive shall be deemed a “Prevailing Party” if (a) a court enters a judgment in his favor in connection with such Litigation, or (b) Employer and Executive enter into a written agreement of settlement of such Litigation. If Executive is not a Prevailing Party in such Litigation, Employer shall pay Executive’s reasonable attorney’s fees and legal expenses in connection therewith, up to a maximum of $100,000.

14.Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State of Wisconsin.

15.Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire Agreement between the Employer and Executive and supersedes any and all previous agreements; written or oral; between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof. No amendment or modification of the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto unless reduced to writing and signed by Employer and Executive.

16.No Employment Contract. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to be an employment contract between Executive and Employer.

17.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original.

18.Severability. In the event any provision of this Agreement is held illegal or invalid, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

19.Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, representatives and successors.
