                  PROVIDED ALWAYS that the above clauses (i) and (ii) shall
                  override the payment periods set out in the Bonus Plan.

                  With respect to any fiscal year of the Company which falls in
                  part but not in whole within the Term of Employment, the Bonus
                  Compensation to which Executive is entitled under this Section

                  such fiscal year falling within the Term of Employment except
                  that if the Term of Employment ends within five days before or
                  after the end of a fiscal year, there shall be no pro ration
                  and the Bonus Compensation shall be payable with respect to
                  the full fiscal year ending within such five-day period.

         (C)      There shall be refunded to the Executive all out-of-pocket
                  expenses properly incurred by him in the performance of his

                  such expenses.

         (D)      The Executive shall be entitled without loss of remuneration

                  the Terms and Conditions of Employment for Monthly Paid Staff
                  or as may otherwise be determined by the Board of Directors to

                  schemes as may be provided by the Company from time to time

                  insurance, and the executive supplementary pension scheme in
                  accordance with the rules and regulations and announcements
                  applicable to the said schemes from time to time in force.

         (F)      The Company shall provide a motor car for the use of the
                  Executive for the performance of his duties under this
                  Agreement. The motor car shall have an engine capacity of not
                  less than two litres and be of such make and model as shall be
                  determined by the Board of Directors to be consistent with the
                  Executive's office or position. The Company shall bear the
                  cost of maintaining, insuring, testing and taxing the motor
                  car. The Executive is authorised to use the motor car for
                  private purposes.

                  As an alternative to being allocated a Company car, you may
                  choose to receive an annual allowance of (pound)10,800 taxable
                  and payable monthly. If you elect to receive this allowance,
                  any car that you drive will be a private car and the Company
                  will have no responsibility for any aspect of owning or
                  running the car. It will be your responsibility to insure your
                  car, including any insurance for business use. If you are
                  required to use your own car for business purposes, you will
                  be entitled to claim expenses at the Company's business
                  mileage rate for fuel costs only.

the provisions of this Section 3, subject, however, to the provisions of Section

Base Salary for such year, multiplied by (ii) the Performance Percentage for
such year, as determined under (b) below.

         (b) The Performance Percentage for any Fiscal Year shall be determined

         year shall be zero, and no Bonus shall be payable under the Plan for

<PAGE>


         (c) If an Executive's Term of Employment commences after the start of a
Fiscal Year, or ends prior to the close of a Fiscal Year, the amount of the
Bonus payable to the Executive for the Fiscal Year in which the Executive's Term
of Employment commences, or for the Fiscal Year in which the Executive's Term of
Employment ends, as determined in accordance with the other applicable
provisions of the Plan, shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days of
such Fiscal Year that fall within the Executive's Term of Employment; provided,
however, that (i) if an Executive's Term of Employment ends within 5 days prior

start of a Fiscal Year, the Executive shall not be entitled to receive any Bonus
with respect to such Fiscal Year.

4.       Adjustment of and Limitation on Bonus Amounts

         The amount of the Bonus otherwise payable to an Executive for any
Fiscal Year in accordance with Section 3 shall be subject to the following
adjustments and limitation:

         (a) The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of the
Bonus otherwise payable to any Executive in accordance with Section 3, (i) to
reflect any decreases in or charges to earnings that were not taken into account
in determining Net Earnings for the year pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c) or (d)
contained in the definition of such term in Section 2, (ii) to reflect any
credits to earnings for extraordinary items of income or gain that were taken
into account in determining Net Earnings for the year, (iii) to reflect the
Committee's evaluation of the Executive's individual performance, or (iv) to
reflect any other events, circumstances or factors which the Committee believes
to be appropriate in determining the amount of the Bonus to be paid to the
Executive for the year.

         (b) The Committee may, in its discretion, increase the amount of the
Bonus otherwise payable to any Executive who is not a Covered Executive, as
determined under Section 3, to reflect the Committee's evaluation of the
Executive's individual performance, or to reflect such other circumstances or
factors as the Committee believes to be appropriate in determining the amount of
the Bonus to be paid to the Executive for the year. The Committee shall not have
any discretion to increase the amount of the Bonus payable to any Covered
Executive for the year, as determined under Section 3.

         (c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, the
amount of the Bonus otherwise payable to any Executive for any Fiscal Year shall
not exceed the lesser of (i) $1.0 million and (ii) 100% of the Executive's Base
Salary for the year.

5.       Payment of Bonuses

         The Bonus payable to an Executive for any Fiscal Year shall be paid in
accordance with the following provisions:

         (a) Except as otherwise provided in (b) or (c) below,

                  (i) if the Executive is not a Covered Executive for such year,
         50% of the estimated amount of the Executive's Bonus shall be paid to
         the Executive at such date in August next following the close of such
         year as the Committee in its discretion shall determine, and the
         remaining amount of the Executive's Bonus shall be paid to the
         Executive by no later than January 15 next following the close of such
         year;



                                       4
<PAGE>

                  (ii) if the Executive is a Covered Executive for such year,
         50% of the amount of the Executive's Bonus shall be paid to the
         Executive as soon as practicable after the Committee has certified in
         writing that all conditions for the payment of such Bonus to the
         Executive for such year have been satisfied, and the remaining amount
         of the Executive's Bonus shall be paid to the Executive by no later
         than January 15 next following the close of such year;

                  (iii) each amount payable to an Executive under (i) and (ii)
         above, reduced by the amount of all federal, state and local taxes
         required by law to be withheld therefrom, shall be paid to the
         Executive in the form of a single lump sum cash payment.

         (b) To the extent that an Executive has elected under the applicable
provisions of the Pall Corporation Management Stock Purchase Plan (the "MSPP")
to have any part of the Bonus payable to the Executive for any Fiscal Year paid
in the form of Restricted Units to be credited to the Executive's account under
the MSPP, no cash payments shall be made to the Executive pursuant to (a) above
with respect to the part of the Executive Bonus that is subject to such
election; and the obligation of the Corporation under this Plan with respect to
payment of such part of the Executive's Bonus shall be fully discharged upon the
crediting of Restricted Units to the Executive's account under the MSPP in
accordance with the applicable provisions of such Plan.

         (c) To the extent that an Executive has elected under the applicable
provisions of the Pall Corporation Profit-Sharing Plan (the "Profit-Sharing
Plan") to have any part of the Bonus payable to the Executive for any Fiscal
Year reduced, and to have an amount equal to such part of the Executive's Bonus
contributed to the Profit-Sharing Plan as a 401(k) Contribution on the
Executive's behalf, an amount equal to such part of the Executive's Bonus shall
be contributed to the Profit-Sharing Plan on behalf of the Executive; and
thereupon, the obligation of the Corporation under this Plan with respect to
payment of such part of the Executive's Bonus shall be fully discharged.
However, no such contribution shall be made to the extent it would cause any
limitation applicable under the 401(k) Plan to be exceeded.

6.        Change in Control

         Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary (but
subject to the "provided, however" clause contained in the definition of "Change
in Control" in Section 2), upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the
following provisions shall apply.

         (a) The amount of the Bonus payable to any Executive for the Fiscal
Year in which a Change in Control occurs shall be at least equal to the Target
Bonus Percentage of the Executive's Base Salary for such year or, in the case of
any Executive whose Term of Employment commences after the start of such year or
ends prior to the close of such year, a pro rata portion thereof determined on
the basis of the number of days of such Fiscal Year that fall within the
Executive's Term of Employment.



                                       5
<PAGE>

         (b) Each Executive whose Term of Employment has not ended prior to the
occurrence of a Change in Control shall be entitled to receive a Bonus for each
Contract Year (as defined in the Executive's Employment Agreement) that falls in
whole or in part within the Executive's Term of Employment and that ends after
the Fiscal Year in which the Change in Control occurs. The amount of the Bonus
payable to the Executive for each such Contract Year shall be at least equal to
the Target Bonus Percentage of the Executive's Base Salary for such Contract
Year or, in the case of any Executive whose Term of Employment ends after the
start of such Contract Year but prior to the close of such year, a pro rata
portion thereof determined on the basis of the number of days of such Contract
Year that fall within the Executive's Term of Employment.

         (c) The entire amount of the Bonus payable to an Executive for any
Fiscal Year or Contract Year pursuant to (a) or (b) above, reduced by the amount
of all federal, state and local taxes required to be withheld therefrom, shall
be paid to the Executive in a single cash lump sum as soon as practicable after
the close of such Fiscal Year or Contract Year.

7.       Rights of Executives

         An Executive's rights and interests under the Plan shall be subject to
the following provisions:

         (a) An Executive's rights to payments under the Plan shall not be
subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment,
pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors of the Executive.

         (b) Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed
as giving any Executive any right to be retained in the employment of the
Corporation or any of its subsidiaries.

8.       Administration

         The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. A majority of the
members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum. The Committee may act at a
meeting, including a telephone meeting, by action of a majority of the members
present, or without a meeting by unanimous written consent. In addition to the
responsibilities and powers assigned to the Committee elsewhere in the Plan, the
Committee shall have the authority, in its discretion, to establish from time to
time guidelines or regulations for the administration of the Plan, interpret the
Plan, and make all determinations considered necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan.

         The Committee may delegate any ministerial or nondiscretionary function
pertaining to the administration of the Plan to any one or more officers of the
Corporation.

         All decisions, actions or interpretations of the Committee under the
Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any determination made by the Committee after the occurrence of a
Change in Control that denies in whole or in part any claim made by any
individual for benefits under the Plan shall be subject to judicial review,
under a "de novo", rather than a deferential standard.


                                       6

9.       Amendment or Termination

         The Board of Directors may, with prospective or retroactive effect,
amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time;
provided, however, that (a) no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan
shall adversely affect the rights of any Executive with respect to any Bonus
that has become payable to the Executive under the Plan, without his or her
written consent, and (b) following a Change in Control, no amendment to Section
6, and no termination of the Plan, shall be effective if such amendment or
termination adversely affects the rights of any Executive under the Plan.

10.      Successor Corporation

         The obligations of the Corporation under the Plan shall be binding upon
any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger,
consolidation or other reorganization of the Corporation, or upon any successor
corporation or organization succeeding to substantially all of the assets and
business of the Corporation. The Corporation agrees that it will make
appropriate provision for the preservation of Executives' rights under the Plan
in any agreement or plan which it may enter into or adopt to effect any such
merger, consolidation, reorganization or transfer of assets.

11.      Governing Law

         The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of New York.

12.      Effective Date

         The Plan was adopted effective as of July 17, 2001 by the Board of
Directors, acting by the Committee, subject, however, to approval by the
shareholders of the Corporation by a majority of the votes cast in person or by
proxy at the 2001 annual meeting of the Corporation's shareholders, including
any adjournment thereof.



[The Plan was approved
by shareholders at the
annual meeting on
