                             RAVEN INDUSTRIES, INC.
                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      AGREEMENT dated as of November 29, 1999 between RAVEN INDUSTRIES, INC., a
South Dakota corporation (the "Company"), and David A. Christensen, (the
"Executive").

                                   WITNESSETH:

      WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") recognizes
that Executive's contribution to the growth and success of the Company and its
subsidiaries has been substantial; and

      WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it is appropriate to memorialize in
writing the terms and conditions of Executive's employment and Executive's
entitlement to certain benefits upon his retirement;

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions
herein contained and in further consideration of services performed and to be
performed by Executive for the Company, the parties agree as follows:

            1. Employment. Executive shall continue in the employ of the Company
in a senior executive capacity, with such duties, powers and authority as are
assigned to Executive from time to time by the Board.

            2. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the date first above
written and, except as otherwise provided in paragraph 7, shall continue in
effect until terminated by either the Company or Executive on 30 days' advance
written notice, either with or without any reason. Except for such 30-day notice
requirement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect the Company's
ability to terminate Executive's employment with or without any reason
notwithstanding the preceding. Termination of this Agreement shall not terminate
Executive's benefits or the Executive's right to benefits under paragraph 4 or 5
if, at the date of termination, Executive has either (I) attained age 65 or (ii)
the sum of Executive;'s age (as of his nearest birthday) and years of service
with the company (to the nearest whole year) equal 80 or more.

            3. Compensation. As full compensation for his services under this
Agreement, Executive shall receive such Compensation as determined by the Board,
and Executive shall be eligible for such fringe benefits as are provided
generally to all senior executives of the Company. The fringe benefits provided
at the date of this Agreement are listed on Schedule A, attached hereto and made
a part hereof. The Company may change or terminate any fringe benefit from time
to time while Executive is employed, so long as the change affects all senior
executives.

            4. Benefits on Termination in Certain Cases. If at the date
Executive terminates employment with the Company, Executive has either (i)
attained age 65 or (ii) the sum of Executive's age (as of his nearest birthday)
and years of service with the Company (to the nearest whole year) equal 80 or
more, Executive shall be entitled, at the Company's expense, to the following
benefits in addition to any retirement benefits to which Executive may be
entitled under any qualified or non-qualified retirement plan maintained by the
Company:

                  (a) Until the later to die of Executive or his spouse,
continuation of coverage under the Company's group hospital, medical and dental
plans ("Medical Plan") for himself, his spouse and eligible dependents ("Covered
Group"); provided that if Executive and his spouse are divorced, the benefits
for such spouse shall be discontinued; and further provided that if such spouse
remarries after the death of Executive, such coverage shall continue for such
spouse after the date of remarriage only if the spouse pays to the Company the
group premium for such coverage. Prior to a member of the Covered Group becoming
eligible for Medicare, the benefits to which that member of the Covered Group is
entitled shall be at least equal to the benefits to which that member of the
Covered Group would have been entitled under the Medical Plan at Executive's
separation from service. Upon eligibility of a member of the Covered Group for
Medicare, coverage provided by Medicare shall be primary and the Medical Plan
shall provide additional benefits such that the total benefits (I.E., Medicare
and the Medical Plan) are at least equal to the benefits that members of the
Covered Group would have been entitled under the Medical Plan at Executive's
separation from service.

                  (b) Until Executive's death, group life insurance coverage in
the same amount as in effect at the date of Executive's retirement;

                  (c) Until the death of the last to die of Executive or his
spouse, payment of uninsured medical expenses (including, but not limited to any
deductibles and coinsurance) for Executive, his spouse and his eligible
dependents up to an annual limit of 10% of Executive's highest annual
compensation during any one of his last five calendar years of employment;
provided that if Executive and his spouse are divorced, or if such spouse
remarries after the death of Executive, such coverage shall be discontinued for
such spouse. The medical expenses to be covered and the timing of payment of
such medical expenses shall be based on the terms of the Raven Industries, Inc.
Officers Employee Medical Reimbursement Plan as in effect at the date of
Executive's separation from service. If such plan is not in effect at the date
of Executive's separation from service and has not been replaced by a similar
plan, medical expenses reimbursed shall be those expenses that would be
deductible under Section 213 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as in effect
at the date of this Agreement (without regard to any provisions making such
expenses deductible only to the extent they exceed a percentage of adjusted
gross income and without regard to any limitation on expenses for cosmetic
surgery), and all such expenses shall be paid or reimbursed within 15 days after
presentation of invoices.

                                       2
<PAGE>

                  (d) Until Executive's death and thereafter until the filing of
a federal estate tax return for his estate, if such a return is to be filed,
payment of personal estate planning, estate tax return and probate expenses, up
to an annual limit of 2% of Executive's highest annual compensation during any
one of his last five calendar years of employment; provided that any amount up
to such 2% limitation not paid in any calendar year may be carried forward for
two succeeding years.

                  (e) Until the last to die of Executive or his spouse, payment
of premiums for long term care insurance for the remainder of Executive's and
his spouse's lives; provided that if Executive and his spouse are divorced, or
Executive's spouse remarries after his death, premium payments for such spouse
shall be discontinued.

            5. Limitation on Amendment or Termination. If for any reason after
the date of Executive's retirement, Executive is not permitted to participate in
any of the plans or programs referred to in paragraph 4, or if any such plans or
programs are amended to provide lesser benefits or are terminated, the Company,
at its sole expense, shall arrange to provide Executive with benefits
substantially similar to those to which Executive would otherwise have been
entitled but for such amendment or termination.

            6. Tax Gross-Up. To the extent that all or any of the payments under
paragraph 4 or 5 made in a calendar year are subject to federal, state, or local
income tax, the Company shall pay to Executive (or his spouse if Executive is
deceased or his estate if he is not survived by a spouse) a Gross-Up Amount
before April 15 of the following year. The term "Gross-Up Amount" means an
amount, after the payment of federal, state and local income tax on such amount,
that is necessary to pay the federal, state and local income tax on the taxable
payments for such calendar year. For purposes of determining the Gross-Up
Amount, Executive shall be considered to pay federal, state and local income
taxes at the highest marginal rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal
income taxes that could be obtained from the deduction of state and local taxes.

            7. Termination For Cause. Notwithstanding paragraphs 2, 4 and 5, if
the Company discharges Executive "For Cause"(as defined below) the Company shall
not be required to provide 30 days' advance written notice of termination and
the Company may elect, in its discretion, not to pay the benefits provided under
paragraphs 4 and 5. A discharge shall be considered "For Cause" if Executive is
terminated from employment for willful misconduct that materially injures or
causes a material loss to the Company and a material benefit to Executive or
third parties, as for example, by embezzlement, appropriation of corporate
opportunity, conversion of tangible or intangible corporate property or the
making of agreements with third parties in which Executive or anyone related to
or associated with him has a direct or indirect interest. The term "For Cause"
does not include a termination occasioned by

                                       3
<PAGE>

ill-advised good faith judgment or negligence in connection with the Company's
business.

            8. Confidentiality. So long as Executive is employed and thereafter
so long as Executive is entitled to and is receiving the benefits to which he is
entitled under paragraphs 4 and 5, he may not either directly or indirectly,
except in the course of carrying out the business of the Company or as
authorized in writing on behalf of the Company, disclose or communicate to any
person, individual, firm or corporation, any information of any kind concerning
any matters affecting or relating to the business of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, including without limitation, any of the customers, prices, sales,
manner of operation, plans, trade secrets, processes, financial or other data of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries, without regard to whether any or all of
such information would otherwise be deemed confidential or material.

            9. Non-Competition. So long as Executive is employed and thereafter
so long as Executive is entitled to and is receiving the benefits to which he is
entitled under paragraphs 4 and 5, he may not engage or participate directly or
indirectly, either as principal, agent, employee, employer, consultant,
stockholder, director, co-partner, or any other individual or representative
capacity, in the conduct or management of, or own any stock or other proprietary
interest in, any business that competes with the business of the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company unless he has obtained prior written consent of the
Board, except that Executive shall be free without such consent to make
investments in any publicly-owned company so long as he does not become a
controlling party in such company.

            10. Consequences of Violation of Confidentiality on Non-Compete
Provision. If the Company, in good faith, determines that Executive has violated
paragraph 8 or 9 of this Agreement, then in addition to any remedy the Company
may be entitled at law or in equity, it may discontinue payments under
paragraphs 4 and 5 upon written notice to Executive of the violation of
paragraph 8 or 9.

            11. No Affect on Other Contractual Rights. The provisions of this
Agreement, and any payment provided for hereunder, shall not reduce any amounts
otherwise payable, or in any way diminish Executive's existing rights, or rights
that would accrue solely as a result of the passage of time, under any benefit
plan, change in control agreement or other contract, plan or arrangement.

            12. Successors to the Corporation. The Company will require any
successor or assign (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or
assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
Executive, expressly, absolutely and unconditionally to assume and agree to
perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the
Company would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had
taken place. As used in this Agreement, "Company" means Raven Industries, Inc.

    retirement is defined as the first day of any month after the officer's
    years of service, plus his attained age equals or exceeds the sum of 80, or
    any date between then and age 65.

    Those benefits are:

    (A) Continued group hospital, medical, and dental coverage for the officer,
        spouse and eligible dependents until the officer attains the age at
        which he is eligible for Medicare (presently age 65 or disabled).

    (B) Upon Medicare eligibility, the officer and spouse will be provided
        supplemental hospital and medical coverage to Medicare which would
        result in the same coverage that is provided to full-time active
        officers of the company. This coverage, as well as group dental
        coverage, will continue for the rest of the officer's and spouse's life.

        spouse remarries after the death of an officer. However, the spouse
        would then be provided

        the option of continued coverage by paying the Raven group premium for
        such coverage.

    (C) At retirement, group life insurance coverage will continue to be
        provided at the amount in effect at retirement ($100,000 maximum -
        excludes A D & D). At age 65 this amount would be reduced to 67% or
        $67,000, and then reduced to 67% or $45,000 at age 70. Life insurance
        coverage will continue for the rest of the officer's life. This
        reduction provision applies only to the retired officers, Kaliszewski
        and Winker.

        The life insurance coverage may be provided through a term policy
        outside of the Raven group plan.

    (D) Upon retirement, supplemental health insurance benefits for the officers
        and his dependents will be provided annually for the rest of the
        officer's and spouse's lives at an amount of up to 10% of the officer's
        highest total annual compensation during any one of the officer's last 5
        years of employment with the company.

    (E) Upon retirement, personal estate planning benefits and personal income
        tax preparation fees will be available in an amount up to 2% of the
        officers highest total annual compensation during any one of the
        officer's last 5 years of employment with the company with up to a three
        year accumulation of benefit dollars available for personal estate and
        personal income tax preparation fees planning. The estate plan may be
        upgraded when conditions warrant, but with prior approval of the C.E.O.

    (F) Longterm care insurance will continue for the rest of the officer's and
        spouse's life. The spouse's coverage will be discontinued in the event
