Exhibit 10.2
Amendment No. 1
to the
Dover Corporation Executive Severance Plan

WHEREAS, Dover Corporation (the “Corporation”) has previously established the
Dover Corporation Executive Severance Plan (the “Plan”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 10 of the Plan, the Benefits Committee has the
authority to amend the Plan on behalf of the Corporation; and

WHEREAS, the Benefits Committee deems it advisable to amend the Plan as set
forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT         

RESOLVED, that effective January 1, 2012, the Plan is amended by deleting the
last sentence of the sixth bullet point of Article 5 of the Plan in its entirety
and replacing it with the following:

"Payments to you shall commence sixty (60) days following your Date of
Termination as provided in this Article 5 above but only if you have executed
such Separation Agreement and Release within forty-five (45) days following the
Date of Termination and the applicable revocation period has expired. Where the
forty-five (45) day period extends into the next year, payment shall commence in
the next taxable year. If you should fail to execute such Separation Agreement
and Release within forty-five (45) days following the Date of Termination or
should you later revoke or violate the Separation Agreement and Release, the
Company shall not have any obligation to make the payments contemplated under
this Plan and you shall refund any Severance Payments made to you."

RESOLVED, that except as specifically provided in the text of this amendment,
the Plan shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms
prior to the amendment.
