(November 1, 2007)

shares of MTII using the bonus payable under the POBS Plus Incentive System for
Members of the Group Management of METTLER TOLEDO (POBS Plus Bonus Plan).

2.  Administration.  The Share Purchase Plan will be administered by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of MTII.  The Compensation
Committee has full power and authority to establish such rules and regulations
as it may deem appropriate for the administration and operation of the Share
Purchase Plan.  The Compensation Committee may make determinations and
interpretations relating to the Share Purchase Plan in its sole discretion, and
its decisions shall be binding upon all participants.

3.  Participants.  Employees who participate in the POBS Plus Bonus Plan shall
be eligible to participate in the Share Purchase Plan, subject to Compensation

Purchase Plan.  The purchase of shares pursuant to each such election shall be
subject to the prior approval of the Compensation Committee.

5.  Share Issuance.  Shares approved for issuance by the Compensation Committee
will be issued on the date that the POBS Plus bonus would otherwise have been

Plan shall be restricted for a period of five years from the date of issuance,

restriction shall apply notwithstanding the earlier termination of a
participant’s employment with MTII, other than termination due to death or
disability.  During the restricted period, shares will be held in book-entry
form in an account maintained by or on behalf of MTII on behalf of each

issuance or sale of shares are the obligation of each participant.  Social
security contributions due upon the issuance of shares are shared equally
between MTII and the participant.  Each participant agrees to pay to MTII, prior
to any share issuance, the federal, state and local income taxes and other
amounts as may be required by law to be withheld by MTII.

9.  Amendment and Termination.  The Board of Directors of MTII may at any time
in its sole discretion terminate this Share Purchase Plan or make such
amendments or modifications as it deems advisable.
