    1. Interest.

     

    Roper
Industries, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay
interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum described
above (the “Original Interest
Rate”).  Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most
recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid,
from September 2, 2009.  Interest on this Note will be paid to but
excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the
principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions
hereof.  The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date, commencing March 1, 2010.  Interest will be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day
months.

     

    The
Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at
the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue installments of interest (without
regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

     

    2. Paying
Agent.

     

    Initially,
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as paying
agent.  The Issuer may change any paying agent without notice to the
Holders.

     

    3. Indenture;
Defined Terms.

     

    This Note
is one of the 6.25% Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”) issued under an
indenture dated as of August
4, 2008 (the “Base
Indenture”) by and
between the Issuer and the Trustee, and established pursuant to an Officer’s
Certificate dated September
2, 2009, issued pursuant to Section 2.01 and Section 2.03 thereof
(together, the “Indenture”).  This
Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the
Indenture.

    


    For
purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein
are used as defined in the Indenture.  The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference
to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”) as in effect on the date
on which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    terms,
and holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement
of them.  To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are
inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

     

    4. Denominations;
Transfer; Exchange.

     

    The Notes
are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and
multiples of $1,000 thereafter.  A Holder shall register the transfer
or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture.  The Issuer may
require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental
charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the
Indenture.  The Issuer need not issue, authenticate, register the
transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof for a period of fifteen
(15) days before the mailing of a notice of redemption, nor need the Issuer
register the transfer or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole
or in part.

     

    5. Amendment;
Supplement; Waiver.

     

    Subject
to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to
the Notes may be amended or supplemented and any existing default or Event of
Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written
consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of
all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture
that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting together as a
single class).  Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the
parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among
other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any
requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the
Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect
the rights of any Holder of a Note.

     

    6. Redemption.

     

    The
Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option, at any time or
from time to time prior to maturity on at least 30 days’, but not more than 60
days’, prior notice mailed to the registered address of each Holder of the Notes
(the “Redemption
Date”).  The redemption price will be equal to the greater
of:

     

    (i) 100%
of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or

     

    (ii) the
sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments discounted to the
Redemption Date, on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the Treasury Rate plus 45
basis points,

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    plus, in
each case, accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

     

    Notwithstanding
the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on
interest payment dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable
on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of
business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the
Indenture.

     

    “Treasury Rate” means, with
respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual
equivalent yield to maturity or interpolation (on a day count basis) of the
interpolated Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the
Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

     

    “Comparable Treasury Issue”
means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an
Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity
comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be
utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial
practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable
maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

     

    “Comparable Treasury Price”
means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date after excluding
the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or
(2) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

     

    “Independent Investment Banker”
means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, appointed by the Trustee after
consultation with the Issuer.

     

    “Reference Treasury Dealer”
means Banc of America Securities LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. or one other
Primary Treasury Dealer selected by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and their
respective affiliates, and their respective successors and one other nationally
recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. government securities
dealer in the City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) as
selected by the Issuer.  If any of the foregoing or their affiliates
shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Issuer shall substitute
therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

     

    “Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any
Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and ask
prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage
of its principal amount) quoted in writing 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    to the
Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on
the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

     

    “Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled
payments of principal of and interest on the Note that would be due after the
related Redemption Date but for the redemption.  If that Redemption
Date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to a Note, the amount of the
next succeeding scheduled interest payment on the Note will be reduced by the
amount of interest accrued on the Note to the Redemption Date.

     

    On and
after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any
portion of the Notes called for redemption, unless the Issuer defaults in the
payment of the redemption price and accrued interest.  On or before
the Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit with a paying agent or the Trustee
money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, the
Notes to be redeemed on that date.

     

    No Notes
of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in
part.  Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at
least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of
Notes to be redeemed at its registered address.  If any Note is to be
redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note shall
state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.  A
new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be
issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original
Note.  On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue
on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Issuer has
deposited with the paying agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable
redemption price.

     

    Notice of
any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be
redeemed. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and
after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or
portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be
redeemed, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in
compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange,
if any, on which the Notes are listed; or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a
pro rata basis, by lot
or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.

     

    7. Offer to
Repurchase Upon Change of Control

     

    Upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, unless the
Issuer shall have exercised its right pursuant to Section 6 hereof to
redeem the Notes, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    require
the Issuer to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (in a multiple
of $1,000 provided that the remaining principal amount, if any, following such
repurchase shall be at least $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof),
of such Holder’s Notes (a “Change of Control Offer”) at a
repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be
repurchased, to, but excluding, the repurchase date (the “Change of Control
Payment”).

     

    Within 30
days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall cause a
notice to be mailed to Holders of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee,
describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control
Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in
the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60
days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment
Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and
described in such notice. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of
applicable securities laws and regulations in connection with the repurchase of
the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event.

     

    On the
Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent
lawful:

     

    (i) accept
for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer;

     

    (ii) deposit
with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in
respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

     

    (iii) deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together
with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or
portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

     

    The
paying agent shall promptly mail, to each Holder who properly tendered Notes,
the repurchase price for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate
and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each such Holder a new
Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes
surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount
of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

     

    The
Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of
Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in
the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set
forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    made by
the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under
such Change of Control Offer. In the event that such third party terminates or
defaults its Change of Control Offer, the Issuer shall be required to make a
Change of Control Offer treating the date of such terminating or default as
though it were the date of the Change of Control Triggering Event.

     

    The
Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act
and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws and
regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a
result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provision
of any such securities laws or regulations conflicts with this Section 7, the Issuer shall comply with those securities laws
and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under
this Section 7 by virtue of any such
conflict.

     

    For
purposes of this Section 7, the following terms
will be applicable:

     

    “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any
one of the following: (1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer,
conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, amalgamation,
arrangement or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of
all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties or assets and those of its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more persons, other than to the Issuer
or one of its subsidiaries; (2) the first day on which a majority of the members
of the Board of Directors is not composed of Continuing Directors; (3) the
consummation of any transaction including, without limitation, any merger,
amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation the result of which is that any
person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of
the Issuer’s Voting Stock; (4) the Issuer consolidates with, or merge with or
into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the
Issuer, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the
outstanding Voting Stock of the Issuer or of such other person is converted into
or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such
transaction where the shares of the Issuer’s Voting Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or
exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person
immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or (5) the adoption of a
plan relating to our liquidation or dissolution.  For the purposes of
this definition, “person” and “beneficial owner” have the meanings used in
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

     

    “Change of Control Triggering
Event” means the
Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies on any date
during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing 60 days prior to the first
public announcement of the Change of Control or the Issuer’s intention to effect
a Change of Control and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of
Control, which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a
Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly
announced that it is considering a possible ratings change.  Unless at
least one Rating Agency is 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    providing
a rating for the Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes will
be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade during that Trigger
Period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control
Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any
particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has
actually been consummated.

     

    “Continuing Directors” means, as of any date of
determination, any member of the Board of Directors who (1) was a member of the
Board of Directors on the Issue Date; or (2) was nominated for election, elected
or appointed to the Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the
Continuing Directors who were members of the Board of Directors at the time of
such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by
approval by such directors of the Issuer’s proxy statement in which such member
was named as a nominee for election as a director.)

     

    “Investment Grade” means a
rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s or BBB- (or
the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating
from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the
Issuer.

     

    “Moody’s” means Moody’s
Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and it
successors.

     

    “Rating Agencies” means (a)
each of Moody’s and S&P; and (b) if any of the Rating Agencies ceases to
provide rating services to issuers or investors, and no Change of Control
Triggering Event has occurred or is occurring, a “nationally recognized
statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F)
under the Exchange Act that is selected by the Issuer (as certified by a
resolution of the Board of Directors) as a replacement for Moody’s or S&P,
or both of them, as the case may be, and that is reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee.

     

    “S&P” means Standard &
Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and its
successors.

     

    “Voting Stock” of any specified person as
of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled
to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such
person.

     

    8. Defaults
and Remedies.

     

    If an
Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect
to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with respect to the Notes and is
continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including


     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    the
Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such Event of Default (voting
together as a single class), shall by written notice, require the Issuer to
repay immediately the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event
of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will automatically become due
immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the
Trustee or any Holder.  Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture
or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee is not
obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity
as it reasonably requires.  The Indenture permits, subject to certain
limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) affected (voting
together as a single class) to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power.  The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of
certain continuing defaults or Events of Default if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest.

     

    9. Authentication.

     

    This Note
shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of
authentication on this Note.

     

    10. Abbreviations
and Defined Terms.

     

    Customary
abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Note or an assignee, such
as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties),
JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in
common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors
Act).

     

    11. CUSIP
Numbers.

     

    Pursuant
to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security
Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on
the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes.  No
representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the
Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers
printed hereon.

     

    12. Governing
Law.

     

    The laws
of the State of New York shall govern the Indenture and this Note
thereof.
