|2. | THE FACILITY
|-- | ------------



|2.1 | Facility
|--- | --------



| | (A) | Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Banks grant to the Borrowers a committed multicurrency revolving credit facility up to an aggregate Original Sterling Amount not
exceeding the Total Commitments.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (B) | Notwithstanding the above provisions of this Clause 2.1, a Bank may procure that one of its Affiliates may make a Loan to a U.S. Borrower if to do so would mean that that Borrower
avoids having to make any withholding or deduction in respect of any Tax.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (C) | This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------



|2.2 | Overall facility limit
|--- | ----------------------



| | (A) | The aggregate Original Sterling Amount of all outstanding Loans shall not, at any time, exceed the Total Commitments.

| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2.3 | Nature of a Finance Partys rights and obligations
|--- | --------------------------------------------------



| | (A) | The obligations of a Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several. Failure by a Finance Party to carry out those obligations does not relieve any other Party of its
obligations under the Finance Documents. No Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (B) | The rights of a Finance Party under the Finance Documents are divided rights. A Finance Party may, except as otherwise stated in the Finance Documents, separately enforce those
rights.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



13



---

|2.4 | Change of Currency
|--- | ------------------



If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will be amended to the extent the Agent specifies it to be necessary to reflect the change
in currency and to put the Banks in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in currency had occurred.



|3. | PURPOSE
|-- | -------



Each Borrower shall apply each Loan made to it under the Facility towards:



| | (A) | the financing of working capital needs and the refinancing of any of its outstanding Financial Indebtedness; and

| | (B) | the Groups general corporate purposes (including any activity approved by the shareholders at a general meeting of the Company and any acquisition (other than a hostile
acquisition)).
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Without affecting the
obligations of any Obligor in any way, no Finance Party is bound to monitor or verify the application of the proceeds of any Loan.



|4. | CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
|-- | --------------------



|4.1 | Documentary conditions precedent
|--- | --------------------------------

| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (B) | the making of the Loan would not cause Clause 2.2 (Overall facility limit) to be contravened.

applied against the Commitment of each Bank pro rata.



|7.3 | Mandatory prepayment

19

the sum has not been made available but the Agent has paid a corresponding amount to
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All payments by an Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be made without any deduction and free and clear of and without any deduction for or on
account of any Taxes, except to the extent that that Obligor is required by law to make payment subject to any Taxes. If any Tax or amounts in respect of Tax must be deducted, or any other deductions must be made, from any amounts payable or paid by
an Obligor, or paid or payable by the Agent to a Bank, under the Finance Documents, that Obligor shall (subject to Clause 11.3 (Qualifying Banks)) pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the relevant Bank receives a net amount
equal to the full amount which it would have received had payment not been made subject to Tax or any other deduction.



For the purposes of this Clause 11, unless otherwise indicated, the term Tax shall not include any Tax on the overall net income. The term
Tax on the overall net income shall mean any Tax imposed on a persons net income, branch profit tax, branch interest tax, including any franchise Tax imposed in lieu thereof, net profits or gains, by any state or federal authority
in the United States in which that person is organised, has its principal office, or has its applicable lending office.

All Taxes required by law to be deducted by an Obligor from any amounts paid or payable under the Finance Documents shall be paid by that Obligor when due
and that Obligor shall, within 15 days of the payment being made, deliver to the Agent for the relevant Bank evidence satisfactory to that Bank (including all relevant Tax receipts) that the payment has been duly remitted to the appropriate
authority.



|11.3 | Qualifying Banks
|---- | ----------------



| | (A) | Subject to paragraph (B) below, if a Bank is not or ceases to be a Qualifying Bank no Obligor will be liable to pay to that Bank under Clause 11.1 (Gross-up) any amount in respect
of Taxes levied or imposed by the U.K. or any Taxing authority of or in the U.K. in excess of the amount it would have been obliged to pay if that Bank had been or had not ceased to be a Qualifying Bank.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (B) | Paragraph (A) above does not apply if a Bank ceases to be a Qualifying Bank as a result of the introduction of, change in, or any change in the interpretation, administration or
application of, any law or regulation or any practice or concession of the U.K. Inland Revenue occurring after the date of this Agreement (or occurring after the date when that Bank became a party to this Agreement, if later).
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



22



---

| | (C) | Subject to paragraph (D) below, no Obligor shall be obliged to gross up under Clause 11.1 (Gross-up) if it would not have needed to do so if a Bank had promptly taken all steps it
is able to take under the relevant double Taxation agreement or under regulations or other requirements imposed by the Inland Revenue in order to obtain payment of any amount payable under the Finance Documents to that Bank without deduction of U.K.
Tax.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (D) | Each Obligor which makes a payment to which a Bank is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for that Obligor to obtain authorisation to make a
payment without deduction of U.K. Tax.

|11.4 | Tax Credits
|---- | -----------



If an Obligor pays any additional amount (a Tax Payment) under Clause 11.1 (Gross-up) and any Bank effectively obtains, utilises and
fully retains a refund of Tax, or credit against Tax on its overall net income, by reason of that Tax Payment (a Tax Credit), on an affiliated group basis and the Bank is able to identify that Tax Credit as being attributable to
that Tax Payment, then the Bank shall as soon as practicable reimburse to the relevant Obligor such amount as it shall determine to be the proportion of that Tax Credit as will leave it (after that reimbursement) in no better or worse position than
it would have been in if that Tax Payment had not been required. Each Bank shall not be obliged to disclose any information regarding its Tax affairs or computations to any Obligor nor shall anything in this Clause 11.4 (Tax credits) interfere with
the right of any Bank to arrange its Tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit.



|11.5 | Confirmation by Banks
|---- | ---------------------



Each Bank confirms on the date of this Agreement or (if later) on the date it becomes a party to this Agreement that it is a Qualifying Bank and agrees
that it shall promptly notify the Company if it becomes aware that any such confirmation ceases to be correct.

| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | the Agent receives notification from Banks whose participations in a Loan exceed 30 per cent. of that Loan that, in their opinion:-
| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | matching deposits may not be available to them in the London interbank market or, in the case of euros, in the European interbank market, in the ordinary course of business to fund

| | (v) | any alternative basis referred to in sub-paragraph (iv) above may include an alternative method of fixing the interest rate, alternative Term or alternative currencies but it must
reflect the cost to the Banks of funding their participation in the Loan(s) to which the notification relates from whatever sources each relevant Bank may reasonably select (each Banks cost of funding being certified by that Bank with a copy
to the Agent) plus the applicable Margin and any Mandatory Costs; and
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (B) | a Borrower being obliged to prepay that Finance Partys participation in any Loan pursuant to Clause 14.1 (Illegality),

Clause 13.1 (Increased Costs) in excess of that which would have been payable to the Existing Bank, then that Obligor shall not be obliged to pay to the New Bank such excess amount.

or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party together with interest on the amount to be returned to the recovering Finance Party for the period whilst it held the re-distribution. Thereupon the subrogation in Clause

| | England or under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 (as may be appropriate);

| | (b) | Fees Rules means the rules on periodic fees in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the
payment of fees for accepting deposits; and
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | In the application of the formula, B, Y, S and Z are included in the formula as figures and not as percentages, e.g. if B = 0.5% and Y = 15%, BY is calculated as 0.5 x 15. A
negative result obtained from subtracting Z from Y shall be taken as zero.
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | If a Reference Bank does not supply a rate to the Agent, the applicable Mandatory Cost will be determined on the basis of the rate(s) supplied by the remaining Reference Banks.

|     |  |     |  |                                                                                                             
|---- |  | --- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|     |  |

|     |  |    
|     |  | (b) |  | Each rate calculated in accordance with the formula is, if necessary, rounded upward to four decimal places.



| | (v) | If the Agent determines that a change in circumstances has rendered, or will render, the formula inappropriate, the Agent (after consultation with the Company and the Banks) shall
notify the Company of the manner in which the Mandatory Cost will subsequently be calculated. The manner of calculation so notified by the Agent shall, in the absence of proven error, be binding on all the Parties.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(C) | For a Reference Bank lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Mandatory Cost for any Reference Bank lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the
percentage notified by that Reference Bank to the Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Reference Bank in its notice to the Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Reference Banks
participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

FORM OF LEGAL OPINION OF ALLEN & OVERY



|To: | The Finance Parties named as
|--- | ----------------------------

original parties to the
Credit Agreement

(as defined below)



[                    ], 2004



Dear Sirs,



TOMKINS FINANCE PLC (the Original Borrower) and

TOMKINS PLC (the Company) - £400,000,000 Revolving Credit Agreement

Dated                     , 2004 (the Credit Agreement)



We have received instructions from and participated in discussions with
[                    ] in connection with the Credit Agreement.



Unless otherwise defined in this opinion, terms defined in the Credit Agreement have the same meaning in this opinion.



For the purposes of this opinion we have examined the following documents:-

|--- | --------------------------------------



|(b) | a certified copy of the memorandum and articles of association and certificate of incorporation of the Company and the Original Borrower;
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(c) | certified copies of the minutes of meetings of the board of directors of the Company and the Original Borrower held on
[            ] and [            ] respectively;
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(d) | a certified copy of a resolution, signed by all the holders of the issued or allotted shares in the Original Borrower dated
[            ]; and
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(e) | a certificate of the Company confirming, amongst other things, that the entry into and performance of the Finance Documents will not contravene any borrowing or guarantee limit.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



On
[            ], 2004, we carried out a search of the Company and the Original Borrower at the Companies Registry. On
[            ], 2004 we made a telephone search of the Company and the Original Borrower at the winding-up petitions at the Central Registry of Winding-Up Petitions.



The above are the only documents or records we have examined and the only searches and
enquiries we have carried out.

We assume that:-



|(i) | neither the Company nor the Original Borrower is unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 123 of the Insolvency Act, 1986 at the time it enters into the Credit
Agreement and will not, as a consequence of entering into the Credit Agreement, be unable to pay its debts within the meaning of that section;
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(ii) | no step has been taken to wind up the Company or the Original Borrower, put either of the Company or the Original Borrower into administration or appoint a receiver, administrator,
administrative receiver, trustee in bankruptcy or similar officer in respect of it or any of its assets although the searches of the Central Registry of Winding-Up Petitions referred to above give no indication that any winding-up or administration
order or appointment of a receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, trustee in bankruptcy or similar officer has been made;
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(iii) | all signatures and documents are genuine;
|----- | -----------------------------------------



|(iv) | all documents are and remain up-to-date;
|---- | ----------------------------------------



|(v) | the correct procedure was carried out for the board meeting referred to in paragraph (c) above; for example, there was a valid quorum, all relevant interests of directors were
declared and the resolutions were duly passed at each of the meetings;
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(vi) | any restrictions in the Companys or the Original Borrowers Articles of Association would not be contravened by the entry into and performance by the Company and the
Original Borrower of the Credit Agreement;
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(vii) | the Credit Agreement has been duly executed on behalf of the Company and the Original Borrower by the persons authorised by the resolutions passed at the relevant meeting referred
to above; and
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(viii) | the Credit Agreement is a legally binding, valid and enforceable obligation of each party to it other than the Company and the Original Borrower; and
|------ | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(ix) | the guarantee contained in the Credit Agreement was given for the legitimate purposes of the Company and the Original Borrower and the giving of the guarantee may reasonably be
regarded as having been in the interests of the Company and in the interests of the Original Borrower.
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



We do not express any opinion as to, nor have we investigated the laws of any jurisdiction other than England. It is assumed that no foreign law would affect any of the
conclusions stated herein.



Subject to the qualifications set out below and to
any matters not disclosed to us, it is our opinion that, so far as the present laws of England are concerned:-



|(1) | Status: Each of the Company and the Original Borrower is a company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of England and is not in liquidation.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



77



---

|(2) | Powers and authority: Each of the Company and the Original Borrower has the corporate power to enter into and perform the Credit Agreement and has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorise the execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Agreement.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(3) | Legal validity: The Credit Agreement constitutes the legally binding, valid and enforceable obligation of the Company and the Original Borrower.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(4) | Non-conflict: The execution, delivery and performance by the Company and the Original Borrower of the Credit Agreement will not violate any provision of (i) any existing
English law applicable to companies generally, or (ii) the memorandum or articles of association of the Company or, as the case may be, the Original Borrower.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(5) | Consents: No authorisations of governmental, judicial or public bodies or authorities in England are required by the Company or the Original Borrower in connection with the
performance, validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(6) | Taxes: All payments due from the Company or the Original Borrower under the Credit Agreement may be made without deduction of any United Kingdom Taxes if, in the case of any
interest, the person that made the Loan to which the interest relates was, at the time of making the Loan, a bank as defined in section 840A of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988 and the person beneficially entitled to the
interest is within the charge to United Kingdom corporation tax as respects that interest at the time the interest is paid.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(7) | Registration requirements: It is not necessary or advisable to file, register or record the Credit Agreement in any public place or elsewhere in England.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(8) | Stamp duties: No stamp, registration or similar Tax or charge is payable in England in respect of the Credit Agreement.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:-



|(i) | This opinion is subject to all insolvency and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(ii) | No opinion is expressed on matters of fact.
|---- | -------------------------------------------



|(iii) | We assume that no foreign law affects the conclusions stated above.
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------



|(iv) | The term enforceable means that a document is of a type and form enforced by the English courts. It does not mean that each obligation will be enforced in
accordance with its terms. Certain rights and obligations may be qualified by the non-conclusivity of certificates, doctrines of good faith and fair conduct, the availability of equitable remedies and other matters, but in our view these
qualifications would not defeat your legitimate expectations in any material respect.
|---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This opinion is given for your sole benefit and may not be relied upon by or disclosed to any other person.



Yours faithfully
