                              EXCESS SAVINGS PLAN

                   AS AMENDED AND RESTATED AS OF JULY 13,2004

<PAGE>

                                  INTRODUCTION

The ITT Excess Savings Plan (the "Plan") was effective as of January 1, 1987.
The purpose of the Plan was to provide a means of restoring the contributions
lost under the ITT Investment and Savings Plan for Salaried Employees due to the
application of the limitations imposed on qualified plans by Section 415 of the
Internal Revenue Code.

As of January 1, 1989, the Plan was amended to provide (i) a means for
restoring, for an employee participating in the ITT Investment and Savings Plan
for Salaried Employees (the "Savings Plan"), the matching and other employer
contributions lost under said Plan due to the application of the limitations
imposed on qualified plans by Section 401(a)(17) and Section 402(g)(1) of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and (ii) a means of providing such employees
with an opportunity to defer a portion of their salary in accordance with the
terms of said Plan as hereinafter set forth.

As of January 1, 1995, the Plan was further amended to provide a means of
restoring for an employee participating in the ITT Investment and Savings Plan
for Salaried Employees matching and other employer contributions lost due to the
deferral of base compensation under another nonqualified deferred compensation
program. As of December 19, 1995, the Plan was renamed and continued as the ITT
Industries Excess Savings Plan.

As of January 1, 1996, the Plan was further amended to solely provide to
individuals who are designated as Eligible Employees under the Plan on and after
January 1, 1996, a means to restoring the contributions lost under the Savings
Plan due to the application of the limitations imposed by Section 415 and
401(a)(17) of the Code and providing such employees with an opportunity to defer
a portion of their base salary and to transfer any liabilities not attributable
to such benefits to the ITT Industries Deferred Compensation Plan. The Plan was
further amended, effective as of (i) January 1, 1997 to provide additional
optional forms of distributions and to revise the participation requirements,
(ii) July 1, 1997 to revise the eligibility requirements to permit an Eligible
Employee to participate in his first year of employment, and (iii) September 1,
1997 to further expand the distribution options available under the Plan.

As of July 13, 2004, the Plan was amended and restated to make certain changes
regarding the effect of an Acceleration Event and to unify the definition of
Acceleration Event with other employee benefit plans of ITT Industries, and to
make certain other technical amendments.

            exceeds the Statutory Compensation Limitation in effect for such
            calendar year, shall be an Eligible Employee and thereby eligible to

      irrevocable Salary Reduction Agreement with respect to such Plan Year
      authorizing Salary Deferrals under this Plan in according with the
      provisions of Section 3.01 (a).

(b)   Any such salary reduction election made by an Eligible Employee shall
      remain in effect for subsequent Plan Years, provided the Member is an
      Eligible Employee during such subsequent Plan Year and, with respect to
      Salary Deferrals made pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(i), the Eligible
      Employee's Savings under the Savings Plan for such Plan Year have been
      suspended due to the Statutory Compensation Limitations (or with respect

      unless modified or revoked by the Eligible Employee prior to the beginning
      of any subsequent Plan Year for which such modification or revocation is
      to be effective.

(c)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Member receives a hardship withdrawal
      of before-tax contributions from the Savings Plan or any other plan which
      is maintained by the Company or an Associated Company and which meets the
      requirements of Section 401(k) of the Code (or any successor thereof) and
      is precluded from making contributions to such 401(k) plan for at least 12
      months (six months, effective as of January 1, 2002) after receipt of the
      hardship withdrawal, the Member's Salary Reduction Agreement, if any,
      shall be suspended during the 12-month period (six months, effective as of
      January 1, 2002) commencing on the date the Member receives the hardship
      withdrawal distribution from the Savings Plan or any other plan maintained

      into the Salary Reduction Agreement.

      Plan, a Member may also be required by the Committee to provide such other
      information as the Committee may deem necessary to properly administer the
      Plan.

      on his behalf pursuant to Article 3.

                 ARTICLE III. EXCESS SAVINGS PLAN CONTRIBUTIONS

3.01 AMOUNT OF CONTRIBUTIONS

For any Plan Year, the amount of contributions to be recorded on the books of
the Company on behalf of a Member pursuant to this Article 3 shall be equal to

      The amount of Salary Deferrals for each Plan Year shall be equal to the
      sum of (i) plus (ii) as follows:

      (i)   the designated percentage of Salary elected by the Member in his
            Salary Reduction Agreement, provided that the allocation under the
            Plan and the reduction in the Member's Salary corresponding to such
            election shall be made only with respect to Salary (A) otherwise
            payable to such Member during the Plan Year in excess of the
            Statutory Compensation Limitation or (B) with respect to Plan Years
            ending prior to January 1, 1996 otherwise payable to such Member
            after he has contributed the maximum amount of before-tax
            contributions for the Plan Year permitted under Section 402(g)(1) of
            the Code; and

      (ii)  the designated percentage of Deferred Compensation elected by the
            Member in his Salary Reduction Agreement, provided that the
            allocation under the Plan and the reduction in the Member's Salary
            corresponding to such election shall be made on a pro rata basis as
            of each payroll period, without regard to whether the Salary payable
            to such Member during the Plan Year has exceeded the Statutory
            Compensation Limitation (or with respect to Plan Years ending prior
            to January 1, 1996, whether such Member has contributed the maximum
            amount of before-tax contributions for the Plan Year permitted under
            Section 402(g)(1) of the Code).

      The designated percentage elected by the Member in his Salary Reduction
      Agreement for a Plan Year must be a uniform percentage, not to exceed six
      (6%) percent, of both his Deferred Compensation and his Salary, unless and
      until changed by the Committee. The total Salary Deferral amount elected

      whether or not Salary Deferrals are made on behalf of the Member pursuant
      to paragraph (a) above, shall be equal to the result of (i) minus (ii) as

      (i)   an amount equal to one half of one percent of the sum of the
            Member's Salary and the Member's Deferred Compensation for the Plan
            Year, minus

      (ii)  the amount of Floor Company Contribution (as that term is defined
            under the Savings Plan) made by the Company on behalf of the Member
            under the Savings Plan for such Plan Year and allocated to the
            Member's account under the Savings Plan in such Plan Year.

(d)   The contributions recorded on the books of the Company pursuant to
      paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, to the extent they are determined with
      reference to Salary, shall be credited to a Member's Accounts at the same
      time as they would have been credited to his accounts under the Savings
      Plan if not for the application of the Statutory Compensation Limitations
      (or with respect to Plan Years ending prior to January 1, 1996, the
      Statutory Limitations).

      The contributions recorded on the books of the Company pursuant to
      paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, to the extent they are determined with
      reference to Deferred Compensation, shall be credited to a Member's
      Accounts on a pro rata basis as of each payroll period.

(e)   Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, no future
      Salary Deferrals by a Member shall be permitted and no future Excess Floor
      or Excess Matching Contributions shall be made on behalf of such Member if
      such Member is no longer an Eligible Employee.

3.02 INVESTMENT OF ACCOUNTS

      A Member shall have no choice or election with respect to the investments
      of his Accounts. As of each Reporting Date, there shall be credited or
      debited an amount of earnings or losses on the balance of the Member's
      Accounts as of such Reporting Date which would have been credited had the
      Member's Accounts been invested in the Stable Value Fund maintained under
      the Savings Plan.

3.03 VESTING OF ACCOUNTS

(a)   The Member shall be fully vested in the Salary Deferrals and Excess Floor
      Contributions (and earnings thereon) made on his behalf under Section 3.01
      (a) and (c) respectively. The Member shall vest in the Excess Matching
      Contributions made on his behalf under Section 3.01(b) (and earnings
      thereon) at the same rate and under the same conditions at which such
      contributions would have vested under the Savings Plan had they been
      contributed thereunder.

      In the event the Member terminates employment prior to vesting in all or
      any part of the Excess Matching Contributions credited on his behalf, such
      contributions and earnings thereon shall be forfeited and shall not be
      restored in the event the Member is subsequently reemployed by the
      Company.

(b)   Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, in the event
      of an Acceleration Event, each Member who is employed by the Company or an
      Associated Company as of the consummation of the Acceleration Event shall
      become fully vested in the Excess Matching Contributions made on his
      behalf under Section 3.01(b) (and earnings thereon).

3.04 INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS

(a)   The Committee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, on the book of
      the Company records showing the individual balances of each Member's
      Accounts. At least once a year, each Member shall be furnished with a
      statement setting forth the value of his Accounts.

(b)   Accounts established under this Plan shall be hypothetical in nature and
      shall be maintained for bookkeeping purposes only so that hypothetical
      earnings or losses on the amounts credited on a Member's behalf under this
      Plan can be credited or debited, as the case may be.

3.05 VALUATION OF ACCOUNTS

(a)   The Committee shall value or cause to be valued each Member's Accounts at
      least quarterly. On each Reporting Date there shall be allocated to the
      Accounts of each Member the appropriate amount determined in accordance
      with Section 3.02.

(b)   Whenever an event requires a determination of the value of a Member's
      Accounts, the value shall be computed as of the Reporting Date immediately
      preceding the date of the event, except as otherwise specified in this
      Plan.

                      ARTICLE IV. PAYMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS

4.01 COMMENCEMENT OF PAYMENT

(a)   A Member shall be entitled to receive payment of his Deferral Account and
      his Floor Contribution Account and the vested portion of his Matching
      Contribution Account as determined under Section 3.03 upon his termination
      of employment with the Company and all Associated Companies for any
      reason, other than death. The distribution of such Accounts shall be made
      as soon as practicable following such termination of employment.

(b)   In the event of the death a Member prior to the full payment of his
      Accounts, the unpaid portion of his Accounts shall be paid to his
      Beneficiary as soon as practicable following his date of death.

4.02 METHOD OF PAYMENT

(a)   Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b) below, payment of a Member's
      Deferral Account and his Floor Contribution Account and the vested portion
      of his Matching Contribution Account shall be made in a single lump sum
      payment.

(b)   Effective on and after January 1, 1997, a Participant may elect by duly
      completing, executing and filing with the Committee a written election to
      have the vested portion of his Deferral Account, Floor Contribution
      Account, and Matching Contribution Account distributed under one of the
      following methods of payment, in lieu of a lump sum payment:

      (i)   ratable annual cash installments for a fixed period of years as
            designated on the written election notice not to exceed 20 years
            (with respect to distributions commencing on or after September 1,
            1997, not to exceed the joint life expectancy of the Member and his
            spouse, if any).

      (ii)  ratable annual cash installments paid over the life expectancy of
            the Member (or with respect to distributions first commencing on or
            after September 1, 1997, the joint life expectancy of the Member and
            his spouse).

      However, for this alternate form of payment election to be effective, it
      must be made by the Member in a calendar year prior to the calendar year
      in which the Member's termination of employment occurs and a full six
      months must pass between the date the Member duly makes such election and
      the Member's termination of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in

<PAGE>

                                                                         Page 12

      the event a Member terminates employment for reasons other than
      Retirement, the distribution of the vested portion of his Deferral
      Account, Floor Contribution Account, and Matching Contribution Account
      shall be made in a single lump sum payment.

      During an installment payment period, the Member's Accounts shall continue
      to be credited with earnings or losses as described in Section 3.02. The
      amount of each installment shall be determined (1) in the same manner as
      the applicable installment method is determined under the provisions of
      the Savings Plan and (2) with respect to an installment determined under
      clause (ii) above, using the same mortality table as utilized in
      determining a similar installment under the Savings Plan.

4.03 PAYMENT UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN ACCELERATION EVENT

      Upon the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, all Members shall
      automatically receive the balance of their Accounts in a single lump sum
      payment. Such lump sum payment shall be made as soon as practicable on or
      after the Acceleration Event. If the Member dies after such Acceleration
      Event, but before receiving such payment, it shall be made to his
      Beneficiary.

                                                                         Page 13

                         ARTICLE V. GENERAL PROVISIONS

5.01 FUNDING

      All amounts payable in accordance with this Plan shall constitute a
      general unsecured obligation of the Company. Such amounts, as well as any
      administrative costs relating to the Plan, shall be paid out of the
      general assets of the Company.

5.02 NO CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT

      The Plan is not a contract of employment and the terms of employment of
      any Member shall not be affected in any way by this Plan or related
      instruments, except as specifically provided therein. The establishment of
      the Plan shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon any
      person for a continuation of employment, nor shall it interfere with the
      rights of the Company to discharge any person and to treat him without
      regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him under this
      Plan. Each Member and all persons who may have or claim any right by
      reason of his membership shall be bound by the terms of this Plan and all
      agreements entered into pursuant thereto.

5.03 UNSECURED INTEREST

      Neither the Company nor the Board of Directors nor the Committee in any
      way guarantees the performance of the investment fund(s) designated under
      Section 3.02. No special or separate fund shall be established, and no
      segregation of assets shall be made, to assure the payments thereunder. No
      Member hereunder shall have any right, title, or interest whatsoever in
      any specific assets of the Company. Nothing contained in this Plan and no
      action taken pursuant to its provisions shall create or be construed to
      create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company
      and a Member or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a
      right to receive payments under this Plan, such right shall be no greater
      than the right of any unsecured creditor of the Company.

5.04 FACILITY OF PAYMENT

      In the event that the Committee shall find that a Member is unable to care
      for his affairs because of illness or accident or is a minor or has died,
      the Committee may direct that any benefit payment due him, unless claim
      shall have been made therefore by a duly appointed legal representative,
      be paid on his behalf to his spouse, a child, a parent or other blood
      relative, or to a

<PAGE>

                                                                         Page 14

      person with whom he resides, and any such payment so made shall thereby be
      a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Company and the Plan for
      that payment.

5.05 WITHHOLDING TAXES

      The Company shall have the right to deduct from each payment to be made
      under the Plan any required withholding taxes.

5.06 NONALIENATION

      Subject to any applicable law, no benefit under the Plan shall be subject
      in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment,
      pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be void, nor
      shall any such benefit be in any manner liable for or subject to
      garnishment, attachment, execution or levy, or liable for or subject to
      the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of a person
      entitled to such benefits.

5.07 TRANSFERS

(a)   Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, in the event the
      Corporation (i) sells, causes the sale of, or sold the stock or assets of
      any employing company in the controlled group of the Corporation to a
      third party or (ii) distributes or distributed to the holders of shares of
      the Corporation's common stock all of the outstanding shares of common
      stock of a subsidiary or subsidiaries of the Corporation, and, as a result
      of such sale or distribution, such company or its employees are no longer
      eligible to participate hereunder, the liabilities with respect to the
      benefits accrued under this Plan for a Member who, as a result of such
      sale or distribution, is no longer eligible to participate in this Plan,
      shall, at the discretion and direction of the Corporation (and approval by
      the new employer), be transferred to a similar plan of such new employer
      and become a liability thereunder. Upon such transfer (and acceptance
      thereof) the liabilities for such transferred benefits shall become the
      obligation of the new employer and the liability under this Plan for such
      benefits shall cease.

(b)   Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, at the discretion and
      direction of the Corporation, liabilities with respect to benefits accrued
      by a Member under a plan maintained by such Member's former employer may
      be transferred to this Plan and upon such transfer become the obligation
      of the Company.

5.08 CLAIMS PROCEDURE

(a)   SUBMISSION OF CLAIMS

      Claims for benefits under the Plan shall be submitted in writing to the
      Committee or to an individual designated by the Committee for this
      purpose.

(b)   DENIAL OF CLAIM

      If any claim for benefits is wholly or partially denied, the claimant
      shall be given written notice within 90 days following the date on which
      the claim is filed, which notice shall set forth

      (i)   the specific reason or reasons for the denial;

      (ii)  specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial
            is based;

      (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary
            for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such
            material or information is necessary; and

      (iv)  an explanation of the Plan's claim review procedure.

      If special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the
      claim, written notice of an extension shall be furnished to the claimant
      prior to the end of the initial period of 90 days following the date on
      which the claim is filed. Such an extension may not exceed a period of 90
      days beyond the end of said initial period.

      If the claim has not been granted and written notice of the denial of the
      claim is not furnished within 90 days following the date on which the
      claim is filed, the claim shall be deemed denied for the purpose of
      proceeding to the claim review procedure.

(c)   CLAIM REVIEW PROCEDURE

      The claimant or his authorized representative shall have 60 days after
      receipt of written notification of denial of a claim to request a review
      of the denial by making written request to the Committee, and may review
      pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing within such
      60-day period.

      Not later than 60 days after receipt of the request for review, the
      Committee shall render and furnish to the claimant a written decision,
      which shall include specific reasons for the decision and shall make
      specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which it is based. If
      special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, the
      decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later than 120
      days after receipt of the request for review, provided that

<PAGE>

                                                                         Page 16

      written notice and explanation of the delay are given to the claimant
      prior to commencement of the extension. Such decision by the Committee
      shall not be subject to further review. If a decision on review is not
      furnished to a claimant within the specified time period, the claim shall
      be deemed to have been denied on review.

(d)   EXHAUSTION OF REMEDY

      No claimant shall institute any action or proceeding in any state or
      federal court of law or equity or before any administrative tribunal or
      arbitrator for a claim for benefits under the Plan until the claimant has
      first exhausted the procedures set forth in this section.

5.09  CONSTRUCTION

(a)   The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded deferred compensation
      arrangement maintained for a select group of management or highly
      compensated employees within the meaning of Section 201(2), Section
      301(a)(3), and Section 401(a)(1) of ERISA, and all rights under this Plan
      shall be governed by ERISA. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Plan
      shall be construed, regulated and administered in accordance with the laws
      of the State of New York, to the extent such laws are not superseded by
      applicable federal laws.

(b)   The masculine pronoun shall mean the feminine wherever appropriate.

(c)   The illegality of any particular provision of this document shall not
      affect the other provisions and the document shall be construed in all
      respects as if such invalid provision were omitted.

(d)   The headings and subheadings in the Plan have been inserted for
      convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in any construction of
      the provisions thereof.

                      ARTICLE VI. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION

6.01 RIGHT TO TERMINATE

      Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, the Corporation may,
      by action of the Board of Directors, terminate this Plan and the related
      Deferral Agreements at any time. In the event the Plan and related Salary
      Reduction Agreements are terminated, each Member or Beneficiary shall
      receive a single sum payment in cash equal to the balance of the Member's
      Accounts. The single sum payment shall be made as soon as practicable
      following the date the Plan is terminated and shall be in lieu of any
      other benefit which may be payable to the Member or Beneficiary under this
      Plan.

6.02 RIGHT TO AMEND

      The Board of Directors or its delegate may amend or modify this Plan and
      the related Salary Reduction Agreements in any way either retroactively or
      prospectively. However, except that without the consent of the Member or
      Beneficiary, if applicable, no amendment or modification shall reduce or
      diminish such person's right to receive any benefit accrued hereunder
      prior to the date of such amendment or modification, and after the
      occurrence of an Acceleration Event, no modification or amendment shall be
      made to Sections 3.03(b) and 4.03.

                          ARTICLE VII. ADMINISTRATION

7.01

(a)   The Committee shall have the exclusive responsibility and complete
      discretionary authority to control the operation, management and
      administration of the Plan, with all powers necessary to enable it
      properly to carry out such responsibilities, including, but not limited
      to, the power to interpret the Plan and any related documents, to
      establish procedures for making any elections called for under the Plan,
      to make factual determinations regarding any and all matters arising
      hereunder, including, but not limited to, the right to determine
      eligibility for benefits, the right to construe the terms of the Plan, the
      right to remedy possible ambiguities, inequities, inconsistencies or
      omissions, and the right to resolve all interpretive, equitable or other
      questions arising under the Plan. The decisions of the Committee on all
      matters shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons to the
      extent permitted by law.

(b)   To the extent permitted by law, all agents and representatives of the
      Committee shall be indemnified by the Corporation and held harmless
      against any claims and the expenses of defending against such claims,
      resulting from any action or conduct relating to the administration of the
      Plan, except claims arising from gross negligence, willful neglect or
      willful misconduct.
