              CONFIDENTIAL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE

This Confidential Severance Agreement and General Release ("Agreement") is
entered into between and among Nick Blauwiekel ("Blauwiekel") and Teledyne
Technologies Incorporated ("Company") as of the date of the Blauwiekel's timely
execution of this Agreement ("Effective Date.")

                                    RECITALS

A.      Blauwiekel was employed as Vice President of Human Resources for the
        Company from March 1, 2000 to February 6, 2001. The Company and
        Blauwiekel have determined that it is in their mutual interests to sever
        their employment relationship amicably and in confidence, and with that
        in mind, Blauwiekel has voluntarily terminated his employment effective
        February 6, 2001.

B.      To ease Blauwiekel's transition, the Company is providing the enhanced
        severance benefits set forth in this Agreement in exchange for which
        Blauwiekel is releasing and extinguishing for all time any and all
        possible claims and demands of any kind, nature or description, known or
        unknown, that he has or might have against the Company and any of its
        past or present officers, directors, principals, administrators,
        employees, agents, representatives, attorneys or insurers, or any of
        their past or present parents, affiliated companies or partnerships, or
        their successors.

C.      Independent and apart from this Agreement, Blauwiekel has been paid a
        severance of one month's salary and all accrued vacation, and he
        acknowledges that, except for the sums and benefits provided for in this
        Agreement, he has been paid all compensation and other sums owed to him
        by the Company, including, but not limited to, vacation, wages, bonuses,
        and other incentive compensation. Any further wages, bonuses, or other
        compensation claimed to be owed by Blauwiekel were disputed in good
        faith and on a reasonable basis by the Company, and have been fully
        compromised and paid to Blauwiekel by this Agreement as set forth below.
        Blauwiekel is not owed any additional sums or compensation, and the
        benefits and sums set forth in this Agreement are over and above any
        sums that Blauwiekel would otherwise have been entitled to in connection
        with his separation of employment with the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained in this
Agreement, Blauwiekel and Company agree as follows:

                   SEVERANCE AGREEMENT & GENERAL RELEASE TERMS

1.      Resignation. Blauwiekel voluntarily resigned his employment with the
        Company, including his service as an officer, effective February 6, 2001
        (the "Separation Date"). Blauwiekel acknowledges and agrees that he has
        been paid all wages, salary, and vacation earned or accrued up to the
        effective date of his resignation.

2.      Severance Benefits. After the Effective Date, the Company shall pay to
        Blauwiekel the following:

                ("COBRA"), the Company shall pay the premiums, in the amount of
                the usual employer's contribution, for said insurance coverage,
                for Blauwiekel, including any of his currently covered

                equivalent to one-third (1/3) of either the fair market value or
                the book value (whichever is less), as of the Effective Date, of
                said vehicle.

3.      Indemnification for Tax Obligations. Blauwiekel shall be solely
        responsible for the full and timely payment of taxes and/or other such
        obligations, if any, incurred as a result of any and all payments
        received pursuant to this Agreement except for the severance payments in
        paragraphs 2a and 2b, collectively, "Tax Obligations". In the event that

        penalties or injuries, including, without limitation, reasonable
        attorneys' fees, arising out of or related to his failure to satisfy any
        Tax Obligations.

4.      Satisfaction Of Wage Claims. The parties acknowledge that any claims of
        Blauwiekel for benefits, commissions, compensation, payments,
        remuneration, salary, vacation and wages were disputed in good faith by
        the Company, that any and all claims by Blauwiekel for benefits,
        commissions, compensation, payments, remuneration, salary, vacation and
        wages have been compromised and resolved by this Agreement, and that
        Blauwiekel is not owed any further additional or benefits, commissions,
        compensation, payments, remuneration, salary, vacation or wages.

5.      General Release. Except as to the provisions and obligations set forth
        in this Agreement, Blauwiekel hereby generally releases and forever
        discharges the Company, its present and former directors, officers,
        employees, agents, attorneys, accountants, consultants, successors,
        assigns and affiliates from any and all claims, demands, complaints,
        causes of action, losses, liabilities, penalties, costs, attorneys'
        fees, expenses, damages, indemnities and obligations of any and every
        kind, nature and character in law, equity or otherwise, present, past or
        future, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, of any
        nature whatsoever, whether now known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen,
        created by statute, rule, regulation or professional code, that
        Blauwiekel ever had, now has or hereinafter can, shall or may have, by
        reason of, arising out of or in any way relating to any acts, omissions,
        events or circumstances from the beginning of time up to the Effective
        Date of this Agreement, including but not limited to Blauwiekel's hiring
        or separation from the Company. By way of example only, and not as a
        limitation, the matters released under this provision include, without
        limitation, all claims related to wages, salaries or other compensation;
        payments, benefits and fringe benefits, back pay and front pay; expense
        reimbursements for residence relocation; housing and automobile
        allowances; expense reimbursements for club/association memberships,
        travel and business items and subscriptions; vacation, holiday and sick
        pay; life, health, accident, disability and workers' compensation
        insurance; and contributions/payments to retirement or pension
        participation plans. The matters released under this provision also
        extend to rights or claims under California's Fair Employment & Housing
        Act (Govt. C Section 12940 et. seq., which prohibits discrimination on
        the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, mental disability,
        physical disability, medical condition, marital status, sexual
        orientation, and other protected categories), Title VII of the Civil
        Rights Act (42 U.S.C. Section 2000e et. seq., which prohibits
        discrimination on the basis of race, sex, national origin, color, and
        religion), the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101
        et. seq., which prohibits discrimination against and requires reasonable
        accommodation of qualified

                                  Page 3 of 6

        disabled workers under certain circumstances), the federal Family
        Medical Leave Act (29 U.S.C. Section 2601 et. seq.), California's Family
        Rights Act (Govt. C Section 12945.2) (which provides leaves of absences
        to employees under certain circumstances), the California Labor Code,
        the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (29 U.S.C. Section 201 et. seq.),
        the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (29 U.S.C. Section 1001 et.
        seq.), and any and all other local, municipal, state and federal
        statutes and laws.

6.      Waiver of Known/Unknown/Suspected/Unsuspected Claims. Blauwiekel waives
        and relinquishes all rights and benefits that might be afforded to him
        under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, and
        does so understanding and acknowledging the significance and consequence
        of this waiver. Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
        California states as follows:

                "A general release does not extend to claims which the
                creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his
                favor at the time of executing the release, which if
                known by him must have materially affected his
                settlement with the debtor."

        Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1542, and for the
        purposes of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of
        the Releases, Blauwiekel expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is
        intended to include all claims which he does not know or suspect to
        exist in his favor at the time of execution, and that the settlement
        agreed upon contemplates the extinguishment of any such claims.

7.      No Disclosure of Confidential Information. Blauwiekel shall not use or
        disclose any confidential information and/or trade secrets of which he
        may have obtained knowledge or possession during his employment with
        Company, except with Company's prior written consent. Such confidential
        information and trade secrets include, but are not limited to, financial
        information, and information regarding Company's business goals, plans,
        policies, and strategies.

8.      No Solicitation of Employee's. Blauwiekel shall not directly or
        indirectly induce or solicit, for a period of one year after the
        Effective Date, any Company employee to leave his or her employment with
        the Company.

9.      Return of Property. Immediately after the Effective Date, Blauwiekel
        shall take all steps necessary to return any and all of Company's
        property. This includes, by way of example only and not as a limitation,
        the corporate leased car, computers, telecommunications devices,
        personnel or office files, and office keys or keycards.

10.     Cooperation in Defending Claims. Blauwiekel shall reasonably cooperate
        with Company upon its reasonable requests in connection with any
        disputes with or claims by current or former employees against Company
        and/or its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, or
        any other person or entity.
