Exhibit 10.65




Compensation Arrangements For Non-Management Directors




Annual Retainer and Meeting Fees



During 2009, each of our non-management Directors of Goodrich Corporation (the “Company”) received
an annual retainer of $60,000, payable in quarterly installments. In addition, each non-management
Director receives $1,500 for each Board and Board Committee meeting attended. The chairs of the
Governance Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Financial Policy Committee each receive an
annual $5,000 retainer for serving as the Committee Chair and the Chair of the Audit Review
Committee receives an annual $10,000 retainer.




Outside Directors’ Deferral Plan



Non-management Directors may elect to defer annual retainer and meeting fees under the Outside
Directors’ Deferral Plan. The Outside Directors’ Deferral Plan permits non-management Directors to
elect to defer a portion or all of the annual retainer and meeting fees into either a phantom share
account or a cash account. Amounts deferred into the phantom share account accrue dividend
equivalents, and amounts deferred into the cash account accrue interest at the prime rate. The plan
provides that amounts deferred into the phantom share account are paid out in shares of Company
Common Stock, and amounts deferred into the cash account are paid out in cash, in each case
following termination of service as a Director in either a single lump sum, five annual
installments or ten annual installments.




Directors’ Phantom Share Plan



Each non-management Director serving as a Director in April 2009 received an annual grant of
phantom shares under the Outside Director Phantom Share Plan equal in value to $90,000. Dividend
equivalents accrue on all phantom shares credited to a Director’s account. All phantom shares are
fully vested on the date of grant. Following termination of service as a Director, the cash value
of the vested number of phantom shares will be paid to each Director in either a single lump sum,
five annual installments or ten annual installments. The value of each phantom share is determined
on the relevant date by the fair market value of Company Common Stock (as defined in the plan).






 









 








Directors’ Retirement Plan



One of the Company’s non-management Directors (Mr. Rankin) participates in the 1982 Directors’
Retirement Plan, which was terminated in 1995. The plan provided that, upon retirement from the
Board of Directors after reaching the age of 55 with at least ten years of service as a Director,
any non-management Director would be entitled to receive an annual amount equal to the annual
retainer in effect at retirement. A retiring Director who had reached age 55 and served for at
least five but less than ten years would be entitled to a reduced amount equal to 50% of the annual
retainer in effect at retirement, plus 10% of such annual retainer for each additional year of
service (rounded to the nearest whole year) up to ten. Under the transition provisions of the plan,
upon his retirement Mr. Rankin will be entitled to receive an annual amount under the plan equal to
70% of the annual retainer in effect at retirement.




Other



Non-management Directors are reimbursed for actual expenses incurred in the performance of their
services as Directors, including continuing education programs and seminars and, in most instances,
provided with travel via Company-provided private aircraft to Board of Directors and committee
meetings. The Company also provides each non-management Director with $250,000 in business travel
accident insurance coverage.
