                      ITT INDUSTRIES EXCESS BENEFIT TRUST

          THIS TRUST AGREEMENT, originally made and entered into as of January
1, 1985, as amended and restated as of July 15, 1987, and further amended and
restated as of July 1, 1993 and as of July 13, 2004 by ITT INDUSTRIES, INC., a
corporation organized under the laws of the State of Indiana (as successor to
ITT Corporation), hereinafter referred to as the "Company", and State Street
Bank and Trust Company, a Massachusetts banking corporation, hereinafter
referred to as the "Trustee."

                                WITNESSETH THAT:

          WHEREAS,

      (1) The Company has established, for the benefit of certain employees of
the Company, excess benefit plans called the ITT Industries Excess Pension Plan
IA and the ITT Industries Excess Pension Plan IB (the "Plans") to provide
benefits which the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA") prevents the Company's tax-qualified defined benefit plans from
providing, all as set forth in the Plans;

      (2) The Company has established this trust fund to aid it in accumulating
the amounts necessary to satisfy its contractual liability to certain
participants in the Plans to pay benefits under the terms of the Plans and to
afford such Members (as defined below) security (to the extent possible under
existing tax laws) approaching that which they would have under the tax-
qualified plans but for the ERISA maximum benefit limitations;

      (3) The Company has also established, for the benefit of certain
employees, a plan to provide additional benefits for a select group of
management and highly compensated employees electing retirement under the
Company's Enhanced Retirement Program, all as set forth in the ITT Select
Management Plan and such other programs of deferred compensation for select
groups of management and highly compensated employees as the Company may from
time to time adopt, including by amending the Plans (collectively the
"Supplemental Plans"). Each participant in the Plans and the Supplemental Plans
is hereinafter referred to as a "Member");

                                                                               2

      (4) The Company wishes to use the trust fund established for the purpose
of accumulating amounts necessary to satisfy its contractual liability to
Members under the Plans, to accumulate the amounts necessary to satisfy its
contractual liability to pay benefits to Members under the terms of the
Supplemental Plans and to afford Members the security (to the extent possible
under existing tax laws) approaching that which they would have under the tax-
qualified plans but for the ERISA and Internal Revenue Code limitations;

      (5) The Company presently intends to make contributions to this Trust to
aid the Company in meeting its obligations under the Plans and Supplemental
Plans, unless and until a Suspension of the Trust, as hereinafter defined,
should occur, in which event such Contributions shall be held by the Trustee,
and invested, reinvested and distributed, all in accordance with the provisions
of this Trust Agreement;

      (6) The Plans and the Supplemental Plans provide for the Company to pay
all benefits from its general assets to the extent not paid by this Trust, and
the establishment of this Trust shall not affect the Company's continuing
liability to pay Plans and Supplemental Plans' benefits except that the
Company's liability shall be offset by actual benefit payments made by this
Trust;

      (7) The Company reserved the right to amend this Trust pursuant to Section
13 and has exercised that right by amending and restating this Trust as of July
1, 1993 and July 13, 2004; and

      (8) The Trust established by this Trust Agreement is intended to be a
"grantor trust" with the result that the corpus and income of the Trust be
treated as assets and income of the Company pursuant to Sections 671 through 679
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code");

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained, the Company and the Trustee declare and agree as follows:

<PAGE>

                                                                               3

SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT AND TITLE OF THE TRUST

      1.1 The Company hereby establishes with the Trustee a trust to be known as
the "ITT Excess Benefit Plan Trust" (hereinafter referred to as the "Trust"),
consisting of such sums of money and other property acceptable to the Trustee as
from time to time shall be paid or delivered to the Trustee. All such money and
other property, all investments and reinvestments made therewith or proceeds
thereof and all earnings and profits thereon, less all payments and charges as
authorized herein, are hereinafter referred to as the "Trust Fund." The Trust
Fund shall be held by the Trustee IN TRUST and shall be dealt with in accordance
with the provisions of this Trust Agreement; provided, however, that the Company
shall at all times have the power to reacquire the Trust Fund by substituting
readily marketable securities of an equivalent value, net of any costs of
disposition, and such other property shall, following such substitution,
constitute the Trust Fund. The Trust Fund shall be held for the exclusive
purpose of providing payments to Members and defraying reasonable expenses of
administration in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Agreement until
all such payments required by this Trust Agreement have been made; provided,
however, that the Trust Fund shall at all times be subject to the claims of
creditors of the Company and its subsidiaries who have reduced such claims to
judgment and levied execution of such judgments against the Trust Fund in
accordance with due process of law.

SECTION 2. ACCEPTANCE BY THE TRUSTEE

      2.1 The Trustee accepts the Trust established under this Trust Agreement
on the terms and subject to the provisions set forth herein, and it agrees to
discharge and perform fully and faithfully all of the duties and obligations
imposed upon it under this Trust Agreement. The Trustee shall be responsible
only for contributions actually received by it hereunder. The amount of each
contribution by the Company to the Trust Fund shall be determined in the sole
discretion of the Company. The Trustee does not assume any responsibility or
undertake any duty to enforce payment of any contribution to the Plans or for
the adequacy of the Trust Fund to meet and discharge any liabilities under the
Plans.

SECTION 3. LIMITATION ON USE OF FUNDS

      3.1 No part of the corpus or income of the Trust Fund shall be recoverable
by the Company or used for any purpose other than for the exclusive purpose of
providing payments to

<PAGE>

                                                                               4

Members and defraying reasonable expenses of administration in accordance with
the provisions of this Trust Agreement until all such payments required by this
Trust Agreement have been made; provided, however, that (i) nothing in this
Section 3.1 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise prevent the payment from the
Trust Fund of expenses and other charges as provided in Sections 8 and 16 of
this Trust Agreement or the application of the Trust Fund as provided in Section
6.4(c) of this Trust Agreement if the Trust is finally determined not to
constitute a grantor trust and (ii) the Trust Fund shall at all times be subject
to claims of creditors of the Company and its subsidiaries who have reduced such
claims to judgment and levied execution of such judgments against the Trust Fund
in accordance with due process of law. Notwithstanding anything else to the
contrary, the Company shall at all times have the power to reacquire the Trust
Fund by substituting readily marketable securities of an equivalent value, net
of any costs of disposition, and such other property shall, following such
substitution, constitute the Trust Fund.

      3.2   (a) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, during the
period, if any, in which the Company is either Bankrupt or Insolvent, as defined
below, the Trustee shall suspend all payments to Members and apply the Trust
Fund for the benefit of the creditors of the Company only as directed by the
United States Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction
("Bankruptcy Court"), and shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law, be fully protected in doing so.

            (b) For purposes of this Trust Agreement, the Company shall be
deemed to be "Bankrupt" if the Trustee has received a copy of a petition, duly
filed by the Company with the Bankruptcy Court, for commencement of a voluntary
case pursuant to Section 301 (or any successor provision thereof) of the
Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended ("BRA"), or a petition, duly filed
against the Company with the Bankruptcy Court for commencement of an involuntary
case pursuant to Section 303 (or any successor provision thereof) of the BRA,
together with a copy of the Certificate of Filing, acknowledging such filing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2(b), the Company
shall be deemed to be no longer Bankrupt if the Trustee has received a copy of
an order, duly issued by the Bankruptcy Court and filed with the clerk thereof,
dismissing such voluntary or involuntary case. The Company shall deliver to the
Trustee a copy of any such bankruptcy petition, Certificate of Filing or order
of

<PAGE>

                                                                               5

dismissal within one business day after the date such petition was duly filed
with the Bankruptcy Court or clerk thereof.

            (c)   For purposes of this Trust Agreement, the Company shall be
deemed to be "Insolvent" if the Trustee has received a copy of: (i) a written
certification, approved by at least two-thirds of the members of the Board of
Directors of the Company and agreed and attested to, under penalties of perjury,
by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to the effect that the Company is
not paying its debts (other than debts that are the subject of a bona fide
dispute) as they become due or (ii) a written certification by another party,
under penalties of perjury, that the Company is not paying its debts (other than
such disputed debts) as they become due. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 3.2(c), the Company shall be deemed to be no longer
Insolvent if the Trustee has received a copy of the Company's most recent
quarterly (unaudited) condensed balance sheet ("Quarterly Report"), or of its
most recent annual (audited) consolidated balance sheet ("Annual Report"),
reporting that the Company's total assets exceed its total liabilities and its
current assets exceed its current liabilities as of a date on or after the date
of such written certification. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee a copy
of each Quarterly Report and Annual Report and of any certification approved by
the Board of Directors under the procedures set forth above in this Section
3.2(c) within one business day after the date such report is released to anyone
not employed by, or affiliated with, the Company or the date such certification
is approved.

            (d)   In the event payments to Members are not made pursuant to this
Section 3.2 and subsequently resume because the Company has been determined to
be no longer Bankrupt or Insolvent or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, the
first payment to Members after payments are resumed shall include (unless
otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court) all arrearages, including interest at
the Interest Rate defined in Section 6.2(a)(iii).

            (e)   Notwithstanding Section 13.1 to the contrary, this Section 3.2
may not be amended by the Company except to comply with any applicable federal
law, rule or regulation, including those promulgated by the Department of Labor,
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Internal Revenue Service or the Treasury
Department.

SECTION 4. DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE PFTIC, TRUSTEE, AND INVESTMENT MANAGER WITH
           RESPECT TO INVESTMENTS

      4.1 The Trustee shall invest and reinvest the principal and income of the
Trust Fund and keep the Trust Fund invested, without distinction between
principal and income, in accordance with the Investment Guidelines attached
hereto as Exhibit A.

      4.2 Except as otherwise required by applicable law, all assets of the
Trust Fund may be commingled for investment purposes.

      4.3 The ITT Industries Pension Fund Trust and Investment Committee
("PFTIC") may from time to time by written instrument delivered to the Trustee
direct the Trustee to segregate all or a specified portion of the Trust Fund
into a separate account (the "Directed Account") and invest it in accordance
with the directions of one or more Investment Managers as that term is defined
in Section 4.6 of this Trust Agreement, appointed by the PFTIC.

      4.4 Supervision of the Investment Manager shall be the exclusive
responsibility of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to review or to
question any direction of the Investment Manager or to review the securities or
other property held in a Directed Account with respect to prudence, proper
diversification of the Trust Fund assets or compliance with the Investment
Guidelines or any limitation on the Investment Manager's authority under the
terms of the Plan, any agreement entered into between the Company and the
Investment Manager or imposed by applicable law or to make suggestions to the
Company on an Investment Manager with respect to the investment and reinvestment
of any Directed Account.

      4.5 The Trustee shall invest and reinvest the Directed Account only to the
extent and in the manner directed by the Investment Manager. All directions
given by the Investment Manager to the Trustee may be in writing, signed by an
officer (or a partner) of the Investment Manager, or by such other person or
persons as may be designated by an officer (or a partner) of the Investment
Manager, may be given orally by such person or may be transmitted to the Trustee
by such other means of communication as the Investment Manager, with the consent
of the Trustee, may deem appropriate or necessary. In performing its investment
duties, the Investment Manager shall have, with respect to the Directed Account,
all of the powers of the

<PAGE>

                                                                               7

Trustee listed in Sections 4 and 5 of this Trust Agreement (other than
paragraphs (e) and (g) through (1) of Section 5.1). If the Trustee is notified
in writing by the PFTIC that the Investment Manager has resigned, was removed or
is no longer a qualified Investment Manager, as defined in Section 4.6 of this
Trust Agreement, the PFTIC can appoint the Trustee as investment manager,
however, until the Trustee accepts the appointment or a new investment manager
is appointed, the Company assumes investment responsibility for the Directed
Account appointed by the PFTIC. In the event the Trustee assumes investment
responsibility for any assets of a Directed Account, the Trustee shall not be
liable for any losses to the Trust Fund resulting from the disposition of any
investment made by an Investment Manager or for the holding of any illegal or
unmarketable securities or for the holding of any other asset acquired by the
Investment Manager if the Trustee is unable to dispose of such investment
because of any Securities laws restrictions or if any orderly liquidation of
such investment is difficult under prevailing conditions or for failure to
comply with any investment or diversification limitations imposed upon the
Investment Manager to for any other violation of the terms of this Agreement.

      4.6 Any Investment Manager may from time to time and at any time issue
orders for the purchase or sale of securities directly to a broker or dealer and
the Trustee upon request from the Investment Manager shall execute and deliver
appropriate trading authorization. Notification of the issuance of each such
order shall be given promptly to the Trustee by the Investment Manager, and the
execution of each such order shall be confirmed by the broker to the Investment
Manager and to the Trustee. Such notification shall be authority to the Trustee
to receive securities purchased against payment therefor and to deliver
securities sold against receipt of the proceeds therefrom, as the case may be,
in accordance with the custom and practices of the securities industry. It is
specifically understood by the Company that when the Trustee is instructed to
deliver property against payment, delivery of the property and receipt of
payment may not be simultaneous. Unless the Trustee participates knowingly in,
or knowingly undertakes to conceal, an act or omission of the Investment
Manager, knowing such act or omission to be a breach of the fiduciary
responsibility of the Investment Manager with respect to the Plan or
Supplemental Plans, the Trustee shall not be liable for any act or omission of
the Investment Manager and shall not be under any obligation to invest or
otherwise manage the assets of the Plan or Supplemental Plans that are subject
to the management of the Investment Manager and, to the maximum extent permitted
by applicable law, the Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for
acting in accordance with, or not acting in the absence of, any

<PAGE>

                                                                               8

written direction of the Investment Manager, or subject to Section 4.4 of this
Trust Agreement, failing to act in the absence of any such direction. Provided
however, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have "participated" in a breach by
an Investment Manager for the purposes of this Section 4.5 as a result of the
performance by the Trustee of any custodial, reporting recording, and
bookkeeping functions with respect to any assets of the Plan or Supplemental
Plan managed by an Investment Manager or as a result of settling purchase and
sale transactions entered into by the Investment Manager or to have "knowledge"
of any such breach as a result of the information received by the Trustee in the
normal course in performing such functions or settling such transactions. The
Company agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify the Trustee and
hold it harmless from and against any claim or liability that may be asserted
against it, otherwise than on account of the Trustee's willful misconduct or
negligence in performing the express terms of this Agreement by reason of the
Trustee's taking or refraining from taking any action in accordance with this
Section 4.5, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any
claim or liability that may be asserted against the Trustee on account of
failure to receive securities purchased, or failure to deliver securities sold,
pursuant to orders issued by the Investment Manager directly to a broker or
dealer.

      4.7 As used herein, "Investment Manager" shall mean an investment manager
registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, a
bank as defined in that Act or an insurance company which is qualified to
manage, acquire or dispose of assets under the laws of more than one state of
the United States.

SECTION 5. ADDITIONAL POWERS AND DUTIES OF THE TRUSTEE

      5.1 The Trustee shall have the following additional powers and authority

      6.1   The establishment of the Trust and the payment or delivery to the

any payments.

      6.2   (a) "Payment Schedule" shall mean a schedule listing all Members and
containing the information described below in this Section 6.2(a) as of January
1 of the calendar year with respect to which the Payment Schedule was delivered
to the Trustee (the "Payment Schedule Date") and such additional dates as are

"Member" shall include the beneficiary of a Member, if any, or other person or
entity, entitled to payments from the Trust in the event of the Member's death,
as determined pursuant to Section 6.4 of this Trust Agreement, wherever the
context so requires.)

                  (i) The Trust Benefit for each Member and, if the Member is
      not receiving payments under the Plans as of the Payment Schedule Date,
      the Member's Trust Benefit as of January 1 of each of the next two
      succeeding calendar years. For purposes of this Trust and the Payment
      Schedule, the "Trust Benefit" shall mean (A) in the case of a Member who

      Date, and (2) if the Member would qualify for an immediate benefit under
      the Plans upon termination of employment on the applicable calculation
      date, at such calculation date. Such Trust Benefits shall be calculated
      based on:

                        (A)   the terms of the Plans and the Federal tax law in
                              effect on the Payment Schedule Date;

<PAGE>

                                                                              12

      the Plan as of the Payment Schedule Date calculated pursuant to the
      provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Opinion Number 36
      ("FASB 36") for purposes of the Company's annual financial statements or,
      if FASB 36 is modified or eliminated after December 31, 1984, calculated
      on the basis of the methodology of FASB 36 in effect on December 31, 1984
      for such purposes and the applicable actuarial assumptions used in funding
      the Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees of ITT Corporation (the "ITT
      Salaried Retirement Plan"); provided, however, that Members will be
      assumed to retire no later than age 65 and in no event shall the interest
      rate used in determining Present Values for the 1984, 1985 or 1986 Payment
      Schedules exceed 9.25 percent per annum, compounded annually.

                  (iii) The "Interest Rate", which is the actuarial interest
      rate used in Section 6.2(a)(ii) of this Trust Agreement.

                  (vi) Each Member's spouse or other beneficiary under the Plan
      or other person or entity entitled to payments under the Plan in the event
      of the Member's death. (For purposes of this Trust Agreement, the term
      "spouse" shall mean the spouse of a Member as determined under the Plan.)
      If the Member is receiving pension payments as of the Payment Schedule
      Date and has validly elected under the Plan a single life annuity, such
      election shall be indicated on the Payment Schedule.

                  (vii) Such other relevant information as may be required by
      the Actuary.

                                                                              13

            For purposes of this Trust and the Payment Schedule, "Actuary" shall
mean the enrolled actuary for the ITT Salaried Retirement Plan or, in the event
that such enrolled actuary is an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries, an
independent enrolled actuary who is not an employee of the Company or its
subsidiaries and who is selected by the Trustee.

            (b) Attached as Exhibit B is the Payment Schedule for 1984. The
Company shall provide the Trustee with a revised Payment Schedule for each
subsequent calendar year no later than December 31 of that year. Each revised
Payment Schedule shall constitute a revocation of the immediately preceding
Payment Schedule, provided that: (i) the Company has made the contribution, if
any, required by Section 6.3 of this Trust Agreement and (ii) the Actuary
certifies that, based on all the information provided to the Actuary, (A) the
revised Payment Schedule accurately reflects the Trust Benefit of each Member as
of the Payment Schedule Date and such additional dates as are indicated in
Section 6.2(a) of this Trust Agreement, (B) any reductions in the Trust Benefit
of a Member from the amount indicated in the previous Payment Schedule are due
to the application of the ERISA maximum benefit limitations, or Social Security
benefits (or the tax rules for integration of such benefits), or election of
optional pre-retirement death benefits, or to deaths which the Trustee has
confirmed by receiving a copy of the death certificate from the Company, and (C)
the Present Values included in the revised Payment Schedule have been calculated
in accordance with Section 6.2(a) of this Trust Agreement.

            (c) The Company may not modify, revoke or alter the Payment
Schedule, or substitute a revised Payment Schedule, except in accordance with
Section 6.2(b) of this Trust Agreement. However, the Company may from time to
time notify the Trustee of (i) changes of addresses listed on the Payment
Schedule and (ii) changes in a Member's beneficiary under the Plan and such new
beneficiary shall be treated, for purposes of this Trust, as designated on the
Payment Schedule.

      6.3   With respect to each calendar year for which a revised Payment
Schedule is delivered to the Trustee, the Company shall contribute to the Trust
not less than the amount certified by the Actuary as necessary to maintain the
Trust on a fully funded basis as of the first day of the month immediately
preceding the month in which the revised Payment Schedule is

<PAGE>

                                                                              14

delivered to the Trustee in accordance with Section 6.2(b) of this Trust
Agreement (the "Valuation Date"). For purposes of this Section 6.3(a), the Trust
shall be deemed to be "fully funded" if the aggregate fair market value of the
Trust Fund as of the Valuation Date equals or exceeds (A) the aggregate Present
Values included in the revised Payment Schedule as of the Payment Schedule Date,
credited with interest between the Payment Schedule Date and the Valuation Date
at the Interest Rate specified in the revised Payment Schedule, plus (B) the
expenses and other charges, an estimate of which shall be provided by the
Trustee to the Actuary, which have been accrued and not paid or which the
Trustee reasonably expects to be incurred by the Trust as provided in Sections 8
and 16 of this Trust Agreement during the current and the next succeeding three
calendar years. The contribution required with respect to a revised Payment
Schedule shall be made by the Company no later than the date such Payment
Schedule was delivered to the Trustee.

      6.4   Subject to Sections 6.4(c), 6.4(d), 6.4(e) and 6.5 of this Trust
Agreement, the Trustee shall make payments, commencing with the payments due
under the Plan for March, 1985, pursuant to the following provisions of this
Section 6.4 and shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be
fully protected in doing so.

            (a)   (i) The amount specified or determined from the instructions
in the Payment Schedule then in effect shall be paid by the Trustee to each
Member listed thereon as receiving pension payments in the form and at the time
or times specified or determined from the instructions in the Payment Schedule.
If the Member shall not then be living, the Trustee shall pay the beneficiary,
if any, confirmed by the Company to the Trustee as designated in accordance with
the Plan. If the Company shall not make such a confirmation, the Trustee shall
pay the beneficiary on the Payment Schedule then in effect. However, if a person
claiming to be the Member's beneficiary under the Plan notifies the Trustee of
such claim, the Trustee shall pay such claimant if (i) after written notice by
the Trustee to the Company of such claim the Company shall consent in writing to
payment to such claimant or (ii) such claimant shall obtain a final judicial
determination binding upon the Company and the Trustee establishing the validity
of such claim. The Trustee is authorized to withhold making payments until such
consent is given or such final judicial determination is obtained.

                                                                              15

                  (ii) The Trustee shall file with the Company a written report
      of each payment made pursuant to this Section 6.4(a) within 30 days after
      making the payment.

            (b)   (i) The amount submitted by the Company to the Trustee, with
the Member's concurrence, as confirmed by an Affidavit in substantially the form
of Exhibit C attached hereto, as payable in accordance with the terms of the
Plan or, if such concurrence as confirmed by such Affidavit is not obtained, the
amount certified by the Actuary to the Trustee as payable in accordance with the
terms of the Plan or otherwise indicated as payable in accordance with the terms
of the Trust pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(iii) of this Trust Agreement shall be
paid by the Trustee to a Member who, as of the Payment Schedule Date, was not
receiving payments under the Plan but is listed with a Trust Benefit on the
Payment Schedule then in effect, in the form and at the time or times specified
in such submission or certification or in the Payment Schedule, whichever is
applicable.

                  (ii) At any time, any Member may independently request the
      Trustee to commence payments in accordance with the terms of the Plan by
      delivering to the Trustee two duly executed and notarized Affidavits in
      substantially the form of Exhibit D attached hereto. Upon receipt of such
      Affidavits the Trustee shall request a calculation of the Member's benefit
      under the Plan from the Actuary and shall pay the amount certified by the
      Actuary to the Trustee as payable in accordance with the terms of the Plan
      or otherwise indicated as payable in accordance with the terms of the
      Trust pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(iii) of this Trust Agreement in the form
      and at the time specified in such certification or in the Payment
      Schedule, whichever is applicable. The Trustee shall send one Affidavit to
      the Company promptly following receipt by the Trustee.

                  (iii) Upon receipt of the Affidavits described in Section
      6.4(b)(ii) of this Trust Agreement, or if the Member's concurrence to the
      Company's submission is not obtained pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(i) of this
      Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall obtain from the Company the relevant
      information necessary to calculate the amount payable to the Member in
      accordance with the terms of the Plan. The Company agrees to furnish to
      the Trustee all information required by the Actuary to perform such
      calculation. The Trustee shall furnish such information to the Actuary,
      shall request the

<PAGE>

                                                                              16

      Actuary to certify the amount payable to the Member and the date payments
      should commence in accordance with the terms of the Plan based on such
      information, and shall deliver a copy of such information and request to
      the Member. However, in the event the Company fails to provide the
      necessary information, or if the Member notifies the Trustee that the
      information provided by the Company is inaccurate or incomplete, the
      Trustee shall immediately commence monthly payments equal to the larger of
      (i) the amount certified by the Actuary to the Trustee as payable in
      accordance with the Plan based upon the Trust Benefit indicated on the
      Payment Schedule then in effect or (ii) the amount, if any, certified by
      the Actuary to the Trustee as payable in accordance with the Plan based on
      the information supplied to the Actuary by the Company. Such payments
      shall continue unless and until (1) the Trustee is able to obtain a
      satisfactory certification from the Actuary concurred to by the Member of
      the amount payable to the Member in accordance with the terms of the Plan
      based on additional information provided by the Company or (2) the Member
      obtains a final judicial determination binding upon the Company and the
      Trustee of the amount payable to the Member in accordance with the terms
      of the Plan. If the Trustee obtains such a satisfactory certification or
      the Member obtains such judicial determination, the amount paid to the
      Member from the Trust shall be adjusted retroactively to the amount so
      certified or judicially determined, to the extent funds are available.

                  (iv) In the event of a Member's death, the Affidavits required
      by this Section 6.4 shall be delivered by, and the Trustee shall pay, the
      beneficiary, if any, or other person or entity entitled to payments from
      the Trust in the event of the Member's death, if any, as designated or
      determined in accordance with the Plan and confirmed by the Company to the
      Trustee. Upon receipt of such Affidavits the Trustee shall send a copy of
      such Affidavits to the Company and obtain from the Company the relevant
      information necessary to calculate the amount payable to the beneficiary
      or other person or entity in accordance with the terms of the Plan. The
      Company agrees to furnish to the Trustee all information required by the
      Actuary to perform such calculation. The Trustee shall furnish such
      information to the Actuary, shall request the Actuary to certify the
      amount payable to the beneficiary or other entity and the date payments
      should commence in accordance with the terms of the Plan based on such
      information, and shall

<PAGE>

                                                                              17

      deliver a copy of such information and request to the beneficiary or other
      person or entity. However, in the event the Company fails to provide the
      necessary information, or if the beneficiary or other person or entity
      notifies the Trustee that the information provided by the Company is
      inaccurate or incomplete, the Trustee shall pay the beneficiary indicated
      on the Payment Schedule then in effect. However, if a person claiming to
      be the Member's beneficiary or other person or entity entitled to payments
      from the Trust in the event of the Member's death under the Plan, notifies
      the Trustee of such claim, the Trustee shall pay such claimant if (i)
      after written notice by the Trustee to the Company of such claim, the
      Company shall in writing (A) acknowledge such claim is valid and is in
      accord with the terms of the Plan and (B) consent to payment to such
      claimant or (ii) such claimant shall obtain a final judicial determination
      binding upon the Company and the Trustee establishing the validity of such
      claim. The Trustee is authorized to withhold making payments until such
      consent is given or such final judicial determination is obtained.

                  (v) The Trustee shall file with the Company a written report
      of each payment made to a Member pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) within 30
      days after making such payment.

            (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in Sections 6.4(a) or 6.4(b)
of the Trust Agreement to the contrary, if at any time the Trust finally is
determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") not to be a "grantor
trust" with the result that the income of the Trust Fund is not treated as
income of the Company pursuant to Sections 671 through 679 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or if a tax is finally determined by the IRS
or by counsel to the Trustee, to be payable by one or more Members in respect of
any vested interest in the Trust Fund prior to payment of such interest to such
Member or Members, then the Trust shall immediately terminate and the entire
Trust Fund (less any expenses or costs due under Sections 8 and 16 of this Trust
Agreement) shall be paid by the Trustee to the trust established as part of the
ITT Salaried Retirement Plan as a contribution by the Company. Such contribution
shall be designated for the separate account maintained in that trust for
retiree medical benefits (to the extent the contribution is deductible by the
Company for federal income tax purposes) and the remainder, if any, shall be
designated for the account maintained for retirement benefits.

<PAGE>

                                                                              18

Upon termination of the Trust pursuant to this Section, no Member shall be
entitled to any further payments from the Trust.

            (d) If the Trustee determines that the Trust Fund is insufficient to
provide for the full monthly payment to one or more Members in accordance with
Section 6.4(a) or 6.4(b) of this Trust Agreement then, except as provided in
Section 12 of this Trust Agreement, the amount to each such Member at that time
shall be reduced in proportion to the ratio which the aggregate fair market
value of the Trust Fund bears to the aggregate amount otherwise payable at that
time to all such Members, and any Member who thereafter presents an Affidavit to
the Trustee shall not be entitled to any payment from the Trust Fund.

            (e) Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 6.4 to the
contrary, in the event of a Suspension of the Trust, as defined in Section
12.2(a) of this Trust Agreement, the amount payable to a Member shall be reduced
pursuant to the requirements of Section 12.2(c) of this Trust Agreement.

            (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the
contrary, the Company shall remain primarily liable under the Plan to pay
benefits. However, the Company's liability under the Plan may be reduced or
offset to the extent the Trust makes Plan payments.

      6.5   The Trustee shall deduct from each payment under Section 6.4 any
Federal, State or local withholding or other taxes or charges which the Trustee
is from time to time required to deduct under applicable laws.

      6.6   The Company may from time to time elect to include the amount
payable to one or more Members under the Supplemental Plans on a revised Payment
Schedule delivered to the Trustee in accordance with Section 6.2(b). In the
event that the Company makes such an election, then, with respect to such
Members, the term Plan shall be deemed to include the Supplemental Plans for all
purposes in this Trust Agreement except Section 12.2(a)(i). Once the Company has
included the amount payable to one or more Members under the Supplemental Plans
on a revised Payment Schedule, then any reductions in the Trust Benefit of
Members with respect to the Supplemental Plans in subsequent revised Payment
Schedules will constitute a revocation of the immediately preceding Payment
Schedule, only if such revised Payment

<PAGE>

                                                                              19

Schedule complies with the terms and conditions of Section 6.2(b), and the
Company certifies to the Trustee that such reduction is based on all information
provided to the Actuary, that any such reduction is due to changes in the annual
compensation that may be taken into account in determining benefits under
tax-qualified retirement plans or changes in other statutory or regulatory
imposed limitations on tax-qualified retirement plans. Any amendment of this
Section 6.6 shall not result in a reduction of any Member's Trust Benefit.

      6.7   The establishment of the Trust and the payment on delivery to the
Trustee of money or other property acceptable to the Trustee shall not give to
any Member rights to payment greater than those of a general unsecured creditor
of the Company.

      6.8   The Company shall certify to the Trustee the amount of Federal State
or local withholding or any other taxes or charges which are required to be
deducted from the amount payable to any member pursuant to Section 6.5 hereof.

      6.9   For purposes of this Article 6, the Trustee may rely upon, and shall
be fully protected in relying upon, certificates furnished to the Trustee by the
Actuary. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to make any independent
determination or calculation and may assume that such certifications are correct
and in accordance with the terms of the plan and the Supplemental Plans.

SECTION 7. THIRD PARTIES

      7.1   A third party dealing with the Trustee shall not be required to make
inquiry as to the authority of the Trustee to take any action nor be under any
obligation to follow the proper application by the Trustee of the proceeds of
sale of any property sold by the Trustee or to inquire into the validity or
propriety of any act of the Trustee.

SECTION 8. TAXES, EXPENSES AND COMPENSATION

      8.1   The Company shall from time to time pay taxes of any and all kinds
whatsoever which at any time are lawfully levied or assessed upon or become
payable in respect of the Trust Fund, the income or any property forming a part
thereof, or any security transaction pertaining thereto. To the extent that any
taxes lawfully levied or assessed upon the Trust Fund are not paid by the
Company, the Trustee shall pay such taxes out of the Trust Fund. The Trustee
shall

                                                                              20

contest the validity of taxes in any manner deemed appropriate by the Company or
its counsel, but at Company expense, but only if it has received an indemnity
bond or other security satisfactory to it to pay any such expense. In the
alternative, the Company may itself contest the validity of any such taxes.

      8.2   Any reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee on its own behalf or
upon the request of the Member pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(ii) of this Trust
Agreement or of a beneficiary or other person or entity pursuant to Section
6.4(b)(iv) of this Trust Agreement for actuarial services including those
rendered by the Actuary pursuant to the Trust shall be paid by the Company. To
the extent that such services are not paid by the Company, the Trust may pay for
such services out of the Trust Fund.

      8.3   Any other reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee in the
performance of its duties under this Trust Agreement, including legal fees,
shall be paid by the Company. If the Company does not pay such expenses, the
Trust may pay for such expenses out of the Trust Fund. The Trustee's entitlement
to reimbursement hereunder shall not be affected by the resignation or removal
of the Trustee or by the termination of the Trust. Upon the direction of the
Company, the Trustee shall pay investment management fees from the Trust Fund.

      8.4   The Company will pay the Trustee such reasonable compensation for
its services as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the Company
and the Trustee, or, absent such agreement, such reasonable compensation as may
be determined from the Trustee's published fee schedules for similar trusts or
services. Such compensation shall be charged against and paid from the Trust
Fund to the extent the Company does not pay such compensation.

SECTION 9. ADMINISTRATION AND RECORDS

      9.1   The Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept accurate and detailed
accounts of any investments, receipts, disbursements and other transactions
hereunder, and all accounts, books and records relating thereto shall be open to
inspection and audit at all reasonable times by any person designated by the
Company. All such accounts, books and records shall be preserved (in original
form, or on micro-film, magnetic tape or any other similar process) for such
period as

<PAGE>

                                                                              21

the Trustee may determine, but the Trustee may only destroy such accounts, books
and records after first notifying the Company in writing of their intention to
do so and transferring to the Company any of such accounts, books and records
requested.

      9.2   Within 30 days after the close of any monthly or quarterly period
with respect to which the Company or the PFTIC may direct the Trustee to
account, within 30 days after the close of each calendar year, and within 30
days after the removal or resignation of the Trustee or the termination of the
Trust, the Trustee shall file with the Company and the PFTIC a written account
setting forth all investments, receipts, disbursements and other transactions
effected by it during such monthly or quarterly period as directed by the
Company or the PFTIC, or during the preceding calendar year, or during the
period from the close of the preceding calendar year to the date of such
removal, resignation or termination, including a description of all investments
and securities purchased and sold with the cost or net proceeds of such
purchases or sales and showing all cash, securities and other property held at
the end of such calendar year or other period. Upon the expiration of 90 days
from the completion of Company's annual audit, the Trustee shall to the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law be forever released and discharged from all
liability and accountability with respect to the propriety of its acts and
transactions shown in such account except with respect to any such acts or
transactions as to which the Company shall file with the Trustee written
objections.

      9.3   The Trustee shall from time to time permit an independent public
accountant selected by the Company (except one to whom the Trustee has
reasonable objection) to have access during ordinary business hours to such
records as may be necessary to audit the Trustee's accounts.

      9.4   As of the last day of each calendar year, the fair market value of
the assets held in the Trust Fund shall be determined. Within 30 days after the
close of each calendar year, the Trustee shall file with the Company and the
PFTIC the written report of the determination of such fair market value of the
assets held in the Trust Fund.

      9.5   Nothing contained in this Trust Agreement shall be construed as
depriving the Trustee or the Company of the right to have a judicial settlement
of the Trustee's accounts, and upon any proceeding for a judicial settlement of
the Trustee's accounts or for instructions the

<PAGE>

                                                                              22

only necessary parties thereto in addition to the Trustee shall be the Company
and the Members listed on the Payment Schedule then in effect.

      9.6   In the event of the removal or resignation of the Trustee, the
Trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee copies of all records which shall
be required by the successor trustee to enable it to carry out the provisions of
this Trust Agreement.

      9.7   In addition to any returns required of the Trustee by law, the
Trustee shall prepare and file such tax reports and other returns as the Company
and the Trustee may from time to time agree.

SECTION 10. REMOVAL OR RESIGNATION OF THE TRUSTEE AND DESIGNATION OF SUCCESSOR
            TRUSTEE

      10.1  At any time the Company may remove the Trustee with or without
cause, upon at least 60 days' notice in writing to the Trustee; provided,
however, that after (i) the occurrence of an Acceleration Event or (ii) the
occurrence of a Potential Acceleration Event the Company may not remove the
Trustee without the consent of a majority of the Members; provided, further,
that (ii) above shall cease to apply if such Potential Acceleration Event does
not result in the occurrence of an Acceleration Event.

      10.2  The Trustee may resign at any time upon at least 60 days' notice in
writing to the Company.

      10.3  In the event of such removal or resignation, the Trustee shall duly
file with the Company a written account as provided in Section 9.2 above for the
period since the last previous annual accounting, listing the investments of the
Trust and any uninvested cash balance thereof, and setting forth all receipts,
disbursements, distributions and other transactions respecting the Trust not
included in any previous account, and if written objections to such account are
not filed as provided in Section 9.2, the Trustee shall to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law be forever released and discharged from all
liability and accountability with respect to the propriety of its acts and
transactions shown in such account.

      10.4  Within 60 days after any such notice of removal or resignation of
the Trustee, the Company shall designate a successor Trustee qualified to act
hereunder; provided, however, that

<PAGE>

                                                                              23

such successor Trustee is a bank which is a member of the Federal Reserve System
and is one of the fifty largest banking corporations in the United States based
upon net assets. In the event that the Company fails to designate a successor
Trustee within 60 days after the Trustee's resignation or removal, the Trustee
shall select a successor Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.4. Each such
successor Trustee, during such period as it shall act as such, shall have the
powers and duties herein conferred upon the Trustee, and the word "Trustee"
wherever used herein, except where the context otherwise requires, shall be
deemed to include any successor Trustee. Upon designation of a successor Trustee
and delivery to the resigned or removed Trustee of written acceptance by the
successor Trustee of such designation, such resigned or removed Trustee shall
promptly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to such Trustee, in conformity
with the requirements of applicable law, the funds and properties in its control
or possession then constituting the Trust Fund.

      10.5  Upon the appointment and acceptance by, and transfer of assets to a
successor Trustee, Trustee shall have no further responsibilities under this
Trust Agreement. The Company hereby agrees to hold the Trustee harmless from and
against all taxes, expenses, (including counsel fees) liabilities, claims,
damages, actions, suits or other charges incurred by or assessed against it as
successor Trustee, as a direct or indirect result of any act or omission of a
predecessor trustee.

SECTION 11. ENFORCEMENT OF TRUST AGREEMENT AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      11.1  The Company shall have the right to enforce any provision of this
Trust Agreement, and, any Member shall have the right as a beneficiary of the
Trust to enforce any provision of this Trust Agreement that affects the right,
title and interest of such Member in the Trust. In any action or proceedings
affecting the Trust the only necessary parties shall be the Company, the Trustee
and the Members and, except as otherwise required by applicable law, no other
person shall be entitled to any notice of service or process. Any judgment
entered in such an action or proceeding shall to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law be binding and conclusive on all persons having or claiming to
have any interest in the Trust.

      11.2  In the event the Trustee is notified that a creditor of the Company
or of a subsidiary of the Company shall seek to enforce a judgment by executing
a lien or other

<PAGE>

                                                                              24

encumbrance against the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall promptly give notice
thereof in writing to all Members listed on the Payment Schedule then in effect
as soon as is reasonably practicable.

      11.3  In the event the Trustee is notified pursuant to Section 3.2 that
the Company is Bankrupt or Insolvent, the Trustee shall promptly give notice
thereof in writing to all Members listed on the Payment Schedule then in effect
as soon as is reasonably practicable.

SECTION 12. TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION

      12.1  The Trust shall terminate when all payments which have or may become
payable pursuant to the terms of the Trust have been made (or the Trust Fund has
been exhausted, whether by payments from the Trust, as a result of a validly
executed lien by a creditor of the Company or of a subsidiary of the Company in
enforcement of a judgment in accordance with due process of law or the terms
thereof, or by direction of the Bankruptcy Court) and any remaining assets shall
then be paid by Trustee to the Company.

      12.2  (a) The following events shall result in a "Suspension of the
Trust":

                  (i) The Trustee receives notification, in a form acceptable to
      it, that the Plan has been terminated by the Company;

                  (ii) The Trustee is notified by the Company of the Company's
      intention to discontinue contributions to the Trust; or

                  (iii) The lapse of two calendar years ending December 31,
      following the last calendar year for which both a revised Payment Schedule
      and a sufficient contribution necessary to maintain the Trust on a "fully
      funded" basis were received (no later than December 31 of said last
      calendar year) by the Trustee in accordance with Sections 6.2 and 6.3 of
      this Trust Agreement.

The "Suspension Date" means the first day of the month after the Suspension of
the Trust.

            (b) Promptly after a Suspension of the Trust, the Trustee shall
establish individual accounts for each Member and allocate the Trust Fund among
such accounts in proportion to the Present Value of each Member's accrued
benefit under the Plan indicated on

<PAGE>

                                                                              25

the Payment Schedule then in effect, credited with interest between the Payment
Schedule Date and the Suspension Date at the Interest Rate specified in the
Payment Schedule and reduced, but not below zero, for the total payments, if
any, made by the Trustee to the Member between the Payment Schedule Date and the
Suspension Date.

            (c)   (i) The amount payable to a Member subsequent to the
Suspension Date shall be based solely on the Trust Benefit listed on the Payment
Schedule then in effect as of the January 1 coincident with or immediately prior
to the Suspension Date (even if such Trust Benefit is less than the amount
payable under the Trust immediately prior to the Suspension Date) and shall be
payable only from the assets allocated to the Members account. The amount, form,
time for commencement, duration of such payments and applicable early retirement
or reduction factors shall be determined by the Company with the Member's
concurrence or by the Actuary in accordance with the terms of the Plan in effect
on the Payment Schedule Date. (However, the beneficiary of a Member or other
person or entity entitled to payments from the Trust in the event of the
Member's death shall be determined pursuant to Section 6.4 of this Trust
Agreement.) The value of each account shall be adjusted at least quarterly to
reflect the effect of income received and accrued, realized and unrealized
profits and losses, expenses and other costs of maintaining the Trust as
provided in Sections 8 and 16 of this Trust Agreement, and all other
transactions of the preceding calendar quarter. Such adjustments shall be made
by (i) deducting the total of all payments made from the account during such
quarter and (ii) adding or deducting, as the case may be, such proportion of
each such item as the value of the account as of the beginning of the quarter
bears to the total value of all accounts as of the beginning of the quarter.

                  (ii) In the event that there are assets remaining in a
      Member's account after all payments pursuant to this Section 12.2(c) have
      been made to that Member, the Trustee shall reallocate such assets to the
      accounts of the other Members in the same manner that the earnings of the
      Trust are allocated to each Member's account.

            (d)   At any time on or after a Suspension of the Trust the Company
may direct the Trustee in writing to purchase, from an insurance company
licensed to do business in New York and rated "A+" or "Excellent" by Best's
Insurance Report, or a comparable rating guide

<PAGE>

                                                                              26

acceptable to the Trustee, paid-up cash value annuity contracts which replicate,
to the maximum extent possible, the payment options available under the Plan,
providing for the payment of each Member's Trust Benefit pursuant to Section
12.2(c) of this Trust Agreement, provided that the Trust Fund is sufficient to
(i) purchase such annuity contracts providing for the payment of all such Trust
Benefits and (ii) establish a reasonable reserve which the Trustee shall
determine to be sufficient to provide for all accrued and future expenses and
other costs of maintaining the Trust as provided in Sections 8 and 16 of this
Trust Agreement until all payments have been made under such annuity contracts.
The Trustee shall hold such annuity contracts in accordance with this Trust
Agreement until all payments are made thereunder, and such annuity contracts
shall remain part of the Trust Fund. After the purchase of such annuity
contracts providing for the payment of all such Trust Benefits, any remaining
assets in the Trust Fund not consisting of such annuity contracts or such
reasonable reserve shall be paid by the Trustee to the Company. The Trust shall
terminate when all payments are made under such annuity contracts and any
remaining assets shall be paid by the Trustee to the Company.

amendments of, this Trust Agreement as shall be necessary to give effect to any
such amendment or modification.

SECTION 14. NON-ALIENATION

      14.1  Except insofar as applicable law may otherwise require and subject
to Sections 1.1 and 3.1 and 3.2 of this Trust Agreement, (i) no amount payable
to or in respect of any Member at any time under the Trust shall be subject in
any manner to alienation by anticipation, sale, transfer, assignment,
bankruptcy, pledge, attachment, charge or encumbrance of any kind, any attempt
to so alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, attach, charge or otherwise

<PAGE>

                                                                              27

encumber any such amount, whether presently or thereafter payable, shall be

of competent jurisdiction to be the result of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Trustee, its officers, employees or agents. To the extent that
the Company has not fulfilled its obligations under the foregoing provisions of
this Section the Trustee shall be reimbursed out of the assets of the Trust Fund
or may set up reasonable reserves for the payment of such obligations. To the

                                    EXHIBIT A

        INVESTMENT GUIDELINES FOR THE ITT INDUSTRIES EXCESS BENEFIT PLAN
                                      TRUST

OBJECTIVE

            The investment objective is the stabilization of unit value over a
three-year time horizon while achieving a total rate of return in excess of that
available in a money market fund. In addition, a specific objective is the
production of a positive total rate of return in every quarterly period. To
achieve these goals the Trust Fund is to invest in a variety of domestic and
Eurodollar issues, utilizing floating rate notes, and will limit the maximum
maturity of any fixed rate investment to seven years.

PHILOSOPHY

            The investment philosophy is based on the objective of principal
stabilization as well as the belief that fixed income portfolios must be
actively managed to adjust for and take advantage of changes in the outlook for
interest rates, relative value between market sectors, and credit status. Most
of the rate of return will consist of coupon income, but opportunities to
realize trading profits will arise within shifting market conditions. These
opportunities should be used. Since income is compounded in the fund, the
reinvestment factor will be an important factor and implies that at times
discount issues will be used, even though the emphasis will be on current
coupons. Adjustments in portfolio structure and holdings should be made only
where a readily identifiable improvement will result, and to ensure the ability
to make these adjustments when called for, holdings will be confined to higher
grade, marketable issues. Because most opportunities in the bond market are
short-lived, the Trustee or Investment Manager should have discretion to act on
his own judgment, subject to the specific investment parameters listed below.

INVESTMENT PARAMETERS

1.    Obligations of the United States of America and the various Federal
      Agencies can be held without limitation, including evidences of ownership
      of a proportionate interest in (i) specified direct obligations of the
      United States of America or (ii) specified obligations the principal of
      and interest on which are unconditionally and fully guaranteed by the
      United States of America, which obligations described in (i) or (ii) are
      held by a bank or trust company organized and existing under the laws of
      the United States of America or any state thereof in the capacity of
      custodian.

2.    Exposure in any one category of fixed rate corporate debt (industrial,
      utility, finance; etc.) is limited to a maximum 35% of the total par value
      of the fund, excluding securities with one year or less to maturity.

3.    Purchases are limited to issues with at least $50 million outstanding.
      (Exceptions may be considered on a case-by-case basis in the event this
      limitation precludes unusually attractive situations.)

<PAGE>

4.    Purchases are limited to a maximum 5% of any one issue and 10% of the
      total par value of the fund in any one company.

5.    Purchases of fixed coupon securities are limited to issues with a maximum
      maturity of seven years; provided, however. Adjustable Rate Securities are
      not subject to this seven year maximum limit.

6.    For short-term investments, obligations issued or guaranteed by the United
      States of America or any Agencies thereof are acceptable, as well as
      evidences of ownership of a proportionate interest in (i) specified direct
      obligations of the United States of America or (ii) specified obligations
      the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally and fully
      guaranteed by the United States of America, which obligations described in
      (i) or (ii) are held by a bank or trust company organized and existing
      under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof in the
      capacity of custodian, together with commercial paper rated A-1 by
      Standard & Poor's Corporation or P-1 by Moody's Investment Service and
      Master Notes with corporations holding commercial paper ratings of A-1 or
      P-1.

      Also acceptable are Domestic CDs, London Eurodollar CDs, London Dollar
      Time Deposits, CDs of U.S. branches of foreign banks (known as Yankee
      CDs), repurchase agreements adequately collateralized by obligations of
      the United States of America or its Agencies and bankers' acceptances
      guaranteed by U.S. banks, which CDs, time deposits or bankers' acceptance
      are issued or guaranteed by the fifty-five largest U.S. banks and by the
      fifty largest foreign banks. These instruments must be monitored by the
      Trustee or the Investment Manager as to quality. Also acceptable are
      savings account certificates of deposit and other types of time or demand
      deposits with any domestic financial institution operated, maintained by,
      or affiliated with the Trustee which bear a reasonably rate of interest.

      Maturities may in no event exceed fifteen months and prudent standards of
      liquidity, diversification and credit quality must be maintained.

7.    A minimum 25% of the par value of the fund shall be maintained in
      short-term investments.

8.    Exposure to both Eurodollar and Domestic floating rate notes shall be
      limited to a maximum of 75% of the total par value of the fund.

9.    Within the above parameters, additional limitations by these quality
      ratings, or comparable quality ratings, are:

          AAA and AA         up to 100% of the total par value of the fund
          A                  up to 25% of the total par value of the fund

      The fund will not invest in issues lower than A.

                                      A-2
