EX-10.1 Third Amendment/Cash Balance Plan

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 31, 2005, Robbins & Myers, Inc. (the “Company”) amended two benefit plans that were available to salaried employees in the United States, namely, the Robbins & Myers, Inc. Cash Balance Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) and the Robbins & Myers, Inc. Employee Savings Plan (the “Savings Plan”).

Pension Plan

The Company amended the Pension Plan as follows: (i) salaried employees who have not met the Pension Plan’s eligibility requirements or who are hired by the Company after December 31, 2005 are not eligible to participate in the Pension Plan; (ii) effective December 31, 2005 (the “Freeze Date”), all future benefit accruals under the Pension Plan cease, and no Participant in the Pension Plan accrues any further benefits under the Pension Plan after the Freeze Date; and (iii) Participants’ Compensation used to determine Final Average Earnings under the Pension Plan is frozen as of December 31, 2005 and any increases in compensation occurring after December 31, 2005 is not taken into account. The Pension Plan will continue for the purpose of paying benefits accrued through December 31, 2005 as provided under the terms of the Pension Plan as amended. A copy the amendments to the Pension Plan is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report.

Savings Plan

To compensate for changes in the Pension Plan, the Company amended the Savings Plan for salaried employees, effective January 1, 2006, to provide for a new employer contribution in an amount equal to 3% of the employee’s earnings. This contribution is made even if the employee chooses not to make any voluntary contribution to the Savings Plan. This 3% contribution is in addition to the current employer matching contribution, which is 50% of the first 6% of the employee’s voluntary contributions under the Savings Plan.
