Re:  Retention 


Dear Bob:


The purpose of this Letter Agreement is to further amend in several respects your prior letter agreements with Eastman Kodak Company (“Kodak”) regarding the terms and conditions of your employment by Kodak, as an additional inducement to incent you to remain employed by Kodak through January 3, 2007, with a retirement date of February 1, 2007.  In particular, the letter agreements that will be amended hereby are the following:  (i) the letter agreement dated December 20, 1999, as amended by the Executive Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) on February 8, 2001, (ii) the letter agreement dated November 12, 2001 and (iii) the letter agreement dated October 2, 2003 (which letter agreements shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Agreement”).  Once signed by both parties, this Letter Agreement will constitute an agreement between Kodak and you.  For purposes of
this Letter Agreement, the term “Company” will refer to Kodak and all of its subsidiaries and affiliates.


1.     Cash Retention Benefit


Subject to your satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement, Kodak agrees to provide you a cash retention benefit in the amount of $15,000 per month for each full month that you remain continuously and actively employed by Kodak between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006 (the “Cash Retention Benefit”), resulting in a potential aggregate Cash Retention Benefit to you of up to $180,000.


For each month that you earn a Cash Retention Benefit, the amount will be paid in a single lump sum payment as soon as administratively practicable following the last day of that month.  In the event, however, that during a month, you either die, or your employment is terminated by Kodak without Cause, as defined in the Agreement, you will be paid a pro-rated amount of the $15,000 payment you otherwise would have received had you remained actively and continuously employed for the entire month.  The amount of the pro-rated payment will be determined by multiplying $15,000 by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days you were employed by Kodak

during the month of your termination of employment and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the month of your termination of employment.  This amount will be paid as soon as administratively practicable following the date of your death or termination of employment.  In the event of your death, any amount owed will be paid to your estate.  The Cash Retention Benefit will be paid subject to withholding for all applicable federal, state and local income and payroll taxes.


The Cash Retention Benefit will not be “benefits bearing.”  That is, such amount will not be taken into account and considered for purposes of determining any employer-provided benefits or compensation to which you are or may hereinafter become eligible.


2.     Restricted Stock Retention Grant


Kodak will grant you 27,000 shares of restricted stock in May 2005 (the “Restricted Stock Retention Grant”) under the terms of the 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Compensation Plan (the “2005 Omnibus Plan”), subject to shareholder approval of the 2005 Omnibus Plan.  The Restricted Stock Retention Grant will vest in three consecutive equal annual installments commencing in 2007; provided that your termination of employment for other than Cause on or after January 3, 2007 shall constitute an “Approved Reason” for purposes of the Restricted Stock Retention Grant, whereupon all remaining restrictions on such shares of restricted stock shall lapse automatically and you shall not forfeit any restricted stock under the Restricted Stock Retention Grant.  The specific terms, conditions and restrictions of the Restricted Stock Retention Grant will be contained in an award notice to be delivered to you on or about the time of the grant in May
2005.


3.     Remaining Terms of Agreement


Except as specifically amended by this Letter Agreement, all the terms of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect, without amendment or modification.


4.     Miscellaneous
