         (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

and (ii) if the Executive's Term of Employment ends within 5 days following the
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
<PAGE>

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

                                       7LOCK-UP  AGREEMENT

                                  December  10,  2001

SKTF  Enterprises,  Inc.
1059  E.  Skyler  Drive
Draper,  Utah  84020

     The  undersigned  understands  that  SKTF  Enterprises,  Inc.,  a  Florida
corporation  (the  "Company")  has  undertaken  the  filing  of  a  registration
statement,  on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), with the Securities and
Exchange  Commission  (the  "SEC").

     For  good  and  valuable  consideration,  receipt  of  which  is  hereby
acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees, beginning upon the effectiveness of
the  Registration Statement and extending for a period of thirty (30) days after
the  termination  of  the  offering  of 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock
offered  in  the  Registration Statement (the "Lock-Up Period"), not to offer to
sell,  contract  to  sell  or otherwise sell (collectively, a "Disposition") any
shares  of  Company  common  stock  owned  of  record  and  beneficially  by the
undersigned  (collectively,  the  "Securities").

     The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the holder of the
Securities  from  engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed
to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of Securities or
to  have  the  economic consequence of a transfer of ownership of the Securities
during  the  Lock-Up  Period  even  if  such  Securities would be disposed of by
someone  other  than  the  undersigned.  Such  prohibited  hedging  or  other
transactions  would  include  without  limitation any short sale (whether or not
against  the box) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without
limitation  any  put  or  call  option)  with  respect to any Securities or with
respect  to  any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that
includes,  relates  to  or  derives  any  significant  part  of  its  value from
Securities.

     Furthermore,  the  undersigned  hereby  agrees and consents to the entry of
stop  transfer  instructions  with  the  Company's  transfer  agent  against the
transfer  of  the  Securities  held by the undersigned except in compliance with
this  Lock-Up  Agreement.  In  the  event that the Registration Statement is not
declared  effective, then this Lock-Up Agreement shall be of no further force or
effect.

     This  agreement  will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws
of  the  State of California.  The undersigned agree to perform any further acts
and  execute and deliver any other documents that may be reasonably necessary to
carry  out  provisions of this Lock-Up Agreement.  This Lock-Up Agreement may be
altered,  amended  or modified in whole or in part at any time only by a writing
signed  by  the  Company  and  the undersigned.  This Lock-Up Agreement shall be
binding  upon  and  shall  inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective
heirs,  legal representatives, beneficiaries, successors, and permitted assigns.

<PAGE>

     The  undersigned  covenant  and  enter into this Lock-Up Agreement with the
knowledge  that  a  restriction  on  the  sale  of  stock by Company insiders is
important  to  the  SEC  and  potential  investors  and that the parties will be
irreparably  damaged  in  the  event  this Lock-Up Agreement is not specifically
enforced.  Accordingly,  in the event of any controversy concerning the right or
obligation  to  purchase  or sell any of the stock of this Company or to perform
any other act pursuant to this Lock-Up Agreement, such right or obligation shall
be  enforceable  in a court of equity by a decree of specific performance.  Such
remedy  shall  be cumulative and non-exclusive, being in addition to any and all
other  remedies  the  parties  may  have.  The  party  against  whom  specific
enforcement  is  being  sought  hereby  waives  any  requirement for securing or
posting  bond  in connection with the enforcing party obtaining an injunction or
other  form  of  equitable  relief.

     In  the  event  any  party  hereto  shall bring any action or proceeding to
enforce  any provision of this Lock-Up Agreement against any other party (or any
transferee or rights pursuant hereto), the prevailing party, whether at trial or
on  appeal,  shall  be  entitled  to recover reasonable attorney fees, costs and
disbursements  in  addition to any other relief to which such party is entitled.
If  any  provision  of this Lock-Up Agreement shall be for any reason invalid or
unenforceable,  the  remaining  provisions  shall  nevertheless continue in full
force  without  being  invalidated  in  any  way.  This Lock-Up Agreement may be
executed  in  counterparts  or  by  the use of separate signature pages attached
here,  and  shall  constitute  one  (1)  agreement, binding on the parties, even
though  all the parties do not sign the same counterpart or same signature page.
A  facsimile  signature  shall  be deemed as effective as an original signature.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Lock-Up Agreement has been executed by the parties
hereto  on  the  day  and  year  first  written  above.
