 provided such amount:

 received by the Member provided the Member has received from the Secretary of
 the Treasury a waiver of the 60-day requirement, pursuant to Section

 entirety as follows:

“ARTICLE 14

Hurricane Katrina Relief

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
This Article 14 establishes the

 intended that such provisions shall be
 applied and interpreted in accordance with the provisions of the
 Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act of 2005 (‘KETRA’) or any subsequent guidance
 from the Internal Revenue Service or Department of Labor interpreting KETRA.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          14.01
 Qualified Individual. (a) A ‘Qualified
 Individual’ is a Member whose principal residence on August 28, 2005 was
 located in one of the Hurricane Katrina designated disaster areas as so
 designated for purposes of KETRA (the ‘Affected Areas’) and who sustained an
 economic loss as a result of Hurricane Katrina.

2

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
                    (b) Other
 Katrina Members. A Member whose place of employment on August 29, 2005
 was in the Affected Areas, but not his principal residence.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
                    (c) Family
 Members. Lineal ascendants, lineal descendants, dependents and spouses of
 Qualified Individuals or of Other Katrina Members.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          14.02
 Hurricane Katrina Distribution. (a) A qualified Hurricane Katrina
 distribution is a distribution made on or after August 25, 2005 and before
 January 1, 2007, to a Qualified Individual. The amounts available for qualified
 Hurricane Katrina distributions under the Plan
 include amounts attributable to Elective Deferrals, Qualified Nonelective
 Contributions, or Qualified Matching Contributions, notwithstanding the fact
 that a distribution may occur
 before an otherwise permitted distributable event.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
                    (b)
 Amount of Distribution. The aggregate amount of qualified Hurricane
 Katrina distributions, taken by a Qualified Individual under this Section
 14.02(b), shall not exceed $100,000, in the aggregate, from all plans
 maintained by the Employer (and any member of any controlled group of the
 Employer which includes the Employer), including the aggregate amount of
 distributions recharacterized as qualified Hurricane Katrina distributions
 received by the individual for all prior taxable years.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
                    (c)
 Other Distributions. Hardship distributions described in Section
 7.03(c) may be made to Plan Members on behalf of Other Katrina Members and
 Family Members on or after August 29, 2005 and no later than March 31,
 2006. Subsections 7.03(d)(ii)(B) and 14.02(b) hereof shall not apply to such
 distributions. Subsection 14.06 hereof shall apply to such distributions.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          14.03
 No Rollover Treatment. Qualified Hurricane
 Katrina distributions shall not be treated as eligible rollover distributions
 for purposes of Sections 401(a)(31), 402(f) and 3405 of the Code in regards
 to the requirements for direct transfer of eligible rollover distributions,
 tax notice and tax withholding requirements. 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          14.04
 Recontributions. (a) Distributions taken from the Plan, received by a
 Qualified Individual after February 28, 2005 and before August 29, 2005,
 intended for use to purchase or construct a principal residence in the
 Affected Areas may be recontributed to this Plan during the period beginning
 August 25, 2005 and ending on February 28, 2006, provided the residence is
 not purchased or constructed as a result of the damage caused by

3

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
Hurricane Katrina. Recontributed
 amounts shall be treated as Rollover Contributions pursuant to Section 3.04
 of the Plan. 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
                    (b)
 If a Member receives a qualified Hurricane Katrina
 distribution, the Member may, pursuant to 101(c)(1) of KETRA, at any time
 during the three-year period beginning on the day after the date on which
 such distribution was received, make one or more contributions to the Plan in
 an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of such distribution.
 Recontributed amounts shall be treated as Rollover Contributions pursuant to
 Section 3.04 of the Plan. 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          14.05
 Loan Amount. (a) Notwithstanding the otherwise applicable
 provisions set forth in Section 8.01(a) of the Plan, Plan loans to Members
 who are Qualified Individuals that are
 made after September 23, 2005 and before January 1, 2007, shall not exceed
 one hundred percent (100%) of the total vested accrued benefits of the Member
 under the Plan as of the date of the loan. Any such amount may be secured by
 up to 100% of the Member’s vested Account balance in the Trust Fund. In no event shall the amount of any loan to
 any such Member exceed $100,000 (reduced by the highest outstanding loan
 balance during the one-year period ending on the day before the loan was made
 over the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan on the day the loan was
 made). The maximum number of loans outstanding that any Member is permitted
 to have in accordance with the Member Loan Procedures shall not be
 increased as a result of the provisions of this subsection.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
                    (b)
 Repayment of Loans. A Member who is a Qualified Individual who has
 outstanding loans on or after August 25, 2005 with respect to which any
 repayment due date falls during the period beginning August 25, 2005 through
 December 31, 2006, may have such due date (or dates) delayed for one year.
 The suspension period shall be disregarded in determining the original five
 (5) year repayment date (or fifteen (15) year repayment date for principal
 residence loans). Loan payments must resume as soon as practicable after the
 end of the suspension period, and the term of the loan shall be extended by
 the duration of such suspension period. Repayments shall be appropriately
 adjusted with accrued interest to reflect the delay in the due date(s). 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
          14.06
 Documentation requirements. The Plan will not be treated as failing to
 follow procedural requirements for Plan distributions or loans otherwise
 imposed by the terms of the Plan, when such requirements are disregarded for
 Katrina related purposes, provided, however, that the Plan Administrator makes a good-faith effort to comply with
such
 requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Administrator
 shall make 

4

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
a reasonable attempt to assemble supporting documentation
 as soon as practical.”

Except to the extent amended by this
Instrument of Amendment, the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this amendment
has been executed on this _____ day of _______, 2006.

CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION

SAVINGS & INVESTMENT PLAN

As Amended and Restated effective January 1, 2001

SEVENTH INSTRUMENT OF AMENDMENT

Recitals:

	
 

	
 

	
1.

	
Curtiss-Wright
 Corporation (“the Company”) has heretofore adopted the Curtiss-Wright
 Corporation Savings & Investment Plan (“the Plan”).

	
 

	
 

	
2.

	
The Company caused
 the Plan to be amended and restated in its entirety, effective as of January
 1, 2001, in order to maintain the Plan’s compliance with the requirements of
 the Internal Revenue Code (“the Code”) and applicable regulations thereunder,
 and caused the Plan, as so amended and restated, to be submitted to the
 Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), pursuant to Rev. Proc. 2001-6, for a
 determination that the Plan is a qualified plan, within the meaning of Sec. 401
 of the Code. 

	
 

	
 

	
3.

	
The Plan was
 further amended by the Sixth Instrument of Amendment. 

	
 

	
 

	
4.

	
Section 12.01(a)
 of the Plan permits the Company to amend the Plan, by written instrument, at
 any time and from time to time, by action of the Board. 

Amendments to the Plan:

For the reasons set forth in the Recitals to this Instrument of
Amendment, the Plan is hereby amended in the following respects, to be
effective as specified herein:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
1. Section 1.17 is
 amended, effective January 1, 2007, by deleting the existing paragraph and
 replacing it with the following: 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“Earnings”
 means the amount of income to be returned with any excess deferrals, excess
 contributions, or excess aggregate contributions under Section 3.01,
 3.07, or 3.08 or 3.09. Income on excess deferrals and excess contributions
 shall be determined (a) by multiplying allocable gain or loss on the Deferred
 Account (excluding Catch-Up Contributions and income attributable to Catch-Up
 Contributions) for the Plan Year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
 excess deferrals or excess contributions, as the case may be, for the Plan
 Year and the denominator of which is the Deferred Account balance at the end
 of the Plan Year, disregarding any income or loss occurring during the Plan Year,
 and (b) by adding to the amount determined under clause (a) 10 percent of the
 amount determined under clause (a) multiplied by the number of whole calendar
 months between the end of the Plan Year and the date of the distribution,
 counting the month of distribution if the distribution occurs after the 15th
 day of the month. Income on excess aggregate contributions shall be
 determined in a similar manner by substituting the sum of the allocable gain
 or loss on the 

1

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
Employer Account
 and Member Account for the Pre-Tax Account and Roth Account, and the excess
 aggregate contributions for the excess deferrals and excess contributions in
 the preceding sentence.”

	
 

	
 

	
2. Section 3.10(b) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the first sentence and inserting in lieu thereof
 the following new sentence:

	
 

	
 

	
“If any Highly
 Compensated Employee is a member of another qualified plan of the Employer or
 an Affiliated Employer, including an employee stock ownership plan described
 in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code but excluding any other qualified plan
 which must be mandatorily disaggregated under Section 410(b) of the
 Code, under which deferred cash contributions or matching contributions are
 made on behalf of the Highly Compensated Employee or under which the Highly
 Compensated Employee makes after-tax contributions, the Committee shall
 implement rules, which shall be uniformly applicable to all employees
 similarly situated, to take into account all such contributions for the
 Highly Compensated Employee made for the applicable Plan Year under all such
 plans in applying the limitations of Sections 3.07, 3.08 and 3.09.”

	
 

	
 

	
3. Section 3.10(d) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the paragraph and inserting in lieu thereof the
 following new paragraph:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“(d)

	
The Employer may
 elect to use Deferred Cash Contributions to satisfy the tests described in
 Section 3.08 and 3.09, provided that the test described in
 Section 3.07 is met prior to such election and continues to be met
 following the Employer’s election to shift the application of those Deferred
 Cash Contributions from Section 3.07 to Section 3.08 and provided
 further that the tests described in Sections 3.08 and 3.09 are both performed
 on either a prior year testing method or a current year testing method.”

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
4. Section 3.10(e) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the first sentence and inserting in lieu thereof
 the following new sentence:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“The Employer may
 authorize that special “qualified nonelective contributions” shall be made
 for a Plan Year, which shall be allocated in such amounts and to such
 Members, who are NonHighly Compensated Employees, as the Committee shall
 determine, provided such allocation procedure complies with the applicable
 provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(k)-2(a)(6).”

	
 

	
 

	
5. Section 3.13(a) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the paragraph and inserting in lieu thereof the
 following new paragraph:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“(a)

	
Notwithstanding
 any provision of this Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits, and
 service credit with respect to qualified uniformed service duty will be
 provided in accordance with Section 414(u) of the Code. Without regard to any
 limitations on contributions set forth in this Article 3, a Member who
 is reemployed on or after October 14, 1994 and is credited with Vesting
 Service under the provisions of Section 1.44(b) 

2

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
because of a
 period of service in the uniformed services of the United States may elect to
 contribute to the Plan the Deferred Cash Contributions (including Catch-Up
 Contributions) and/or After-Tax Contributions that could have been
 contributed to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan had he
 remained continuously employed by the Employer throughout such period of
 absence (“make-up contributions”). For purposes of determining the amount of
 make-up contributions a Member may make, his Compensation for the period of
 absence shall be deemed to be the rate of
 Compensation he would have received had he remained employed as an Employee for
 that period or, if such rate is not reasonably certain, on the basis of the
 Member’s rate of compensation during the 12-month period immediately
 preceding such period of absence (or if shorter, the period of employment
 immediately preceding such period). Any Deferred Cash Contributions,
 Catch-Up Contributions, and/or After-Tax Contributions so determined shall be
 limited as provided in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.08, and 3.09 with respect
 to the Plan Year or Years to which such contributions relate rather than the
 Plan Year in which payment is made. The make-up contributions may be made
 over a period not to exceed three times the period of military leave or five
 years, if less, but in no event later than the Member’s termination of
 employment (unless he is subsequently rehired). The make-up period shall
 start on the later of: (i) the Member’s date of reemployment, or (ii) the
 date the Employer notifies the Employee of his rights under this
 Section. Earnings (or losses) on make-up contributions shall be credited
 commencing with the date the make-up contribution is made in accordance with
 the provisions of Article 4.

	
 

	
6. Section 6.03 is amended, effective as of January
 1, 2007 by deleting the last sentence of paragraph (a) and replacing it with
 the following sentence:

	
 

	
 

	
“(a)

	
If the amount of
 the Vested Portion of a Member’s Employer Account at the time of his
 termination of employment is zero and the Member had not at any time made
 Deferred Cash Contributions to the Plan, the Member shall be deemed to have
 received a distribution of such zero vested benefit.” 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
7. Section 8.02(a) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v)
 and (vi) under (a) and inserting in lieu thereof the following new
 subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) (vi), (vii) and (viii)

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“(i)

	
An application for
 a loan by a Member shall be made in writing to the Committee, whose action in
 approving or disapproving the application shall be final. The Member shall
 certify in such application as to the existence and amount of any outstanding
 loans (including any loans deemed distributed) from any qualified plans
 maintained by the Employer and all Affiliated Employers.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(ii)

	
Each loan shall be
 evidenced by a promissory note payable to the Plan. 

3

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(iii)

	
The period of
 repayment for any loan shall be arrived at by mutual agreement between the
 Committee and the Member, but that period shall not exceed five years unless
 the loan is to be used in conjunction with the purchase of the principal
 residence of the Member, in which case that period shall not exceed 15 years,
 or unless the provisions of subparagraph (iv) provide otherwise.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(iv)

	
If a Member with
 an outstanding loan takes an authorized leave of absence without pay or
 reduced pay that is less than the required loan payments, for reasons other
 than to enter the uniformed services of the United States, loan payments may
 be suspended at the request of the Member, for a period of up to 12 months or
 until the end of the term of the loan, if earlier. Upon a Member’s
 reemployment from the leave of absence, the Member shall resume payments
 either in the same amount as before the leave with the full balance due upon
 the expiration of the repayment period or by reamortizing the loan in
 substantially level installments over the remaining term of the loan.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(v)

	
If a Member takes
 a leave of absence to enter the uniformed services of the United States, loan
 repayments shall be suspended during the period of leave, upon approval by
 the Committee or its designee. Upon the Member’s reemployment from the
 uniformed services, the period of repayment shall be extended by the number
 of months of the period of service in the uniformed services or, if greater,
 the number of months that would remain if the original loan term were five
 years plus the number of months in the period of absence; provided, however,
 if the Member incurs a termination of employment and requests a distribution
 pursuant to Article 9, the loan shall be canceled, and the outstanding loan
 balance shall be distributed pursuant to Article 9. If a Member enters the
 uniformed services of the United States, the interest rate applicable to the
 unpaid loan balance during the period of leave shall be reduced to 6%, in
 accordance with the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940. Upon a
 Member’s reemployment from the leave of absence, the Member shall resume
 payments either in the same amount as before the leave with the full balance
 due upon the expiration of the repayment period or by reamortizing the loan
 in substantially level installments over the remaining term of the loan.

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(vi)

	
Payments of
 principal and interest will be made by payroll deductions or in a manner
 agreed to by the Member and the Committee in substantially level amounts, but
 no less frequently than quarterly, in an amount sufficient to amortize the
 loan over the repayment period. 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(vii)

	
A loan may be
 prepaid in full as of any date without penalty.

4

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
(viii)

	
Only one loan may
 be outstanding at any given time (unless an acquired employee rolls over
 outstanding loan balance(s) from his prior Plan, in which case two
 outstanding loans are permitted).”

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
8. Section
 9.03(c) is amended to read as follows:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“(c)

	
Notwithstanding
 the provisions of subsections (a) and (b), if the value of the Vested Portion
 of the Member’s Accounts is equal to or less than the applicable cash out
 amount, a lump sum payment shall automatically be made as soon as
 administratively practicable following the Member’s termination of
 employment. For purposes of this subsection, effective as of March 28, 2005,
 the applicable cash out amount shall be $1,000, including Rollover Contributions
 and earnings on those contributions. “

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
9. Section 12.01(b) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the paragraph and inserting in lieu thereof the
 following new paragraph:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“(b)

	
Effective as of December
 31, 1997, amendments to the Plan that are required because of statute or
 rulings of a judicial body or are necessitated for administrative purposes,
 unless such administrative amendments have a material effect on the cost or
 benefit level of the Plan, shall be made by the Committee. Effective as of
 January 1, 2007, amendments to the Plan that reflect acquisitions shall be
 adopted by the Committee. All such amendments shall be submitted to the Board
 of Directors at their meeting following the adoption of such amendments.” 

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
10. Section 12.04(b) is amended, effective as of
 January 1, 2007, by deleting the paragraph and inserting in lieu thereof the
 following new paragraph:

	
 

	
 

	
 

	
“(b)

	
Upon termination
 of the Plan, Deferred Cash Contributions, with earnings thereon, shall only
 be distributed to Members if (i) neither the Employer nor an Affiliated
 Employer establishes or maintains a successor defined contribution plan and
 (ii) payment is made to the Members in the form of a lump sum distribution
 (as defined in Section 402(e)(4)(D) of the Code, without regard to
 subclauses (I) through (IV) of clause (i) thereof). For purposes of this
 paragraph, a “successor defined contribution plan” is a defined contribution
 plan (other than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in
 Section 4975(e)(7) or 409(a) of the Code (“ESOP”), a simplified employee
 pension as defined in Section 408(k) of the Code (“SEP”), a SIMPLE IRA
 plan as defined in Section 408(p) of the Code, a plan or contract that
 satisfies the requirements of Section 403(b) of the Code, or a plan that is
 described in Section 457(b) or (f)) which exists at the time the Plan is
 terminated or within the 12-month period beginning on the date all assets are
 distributed that accepts salary deferrals. However, in no event shall a
 defined contribution plan be deemed a successor plan if fewer than
 2 percent of the employees who are eligible to participate in the Plan
 at the time of its termination are or were eligible to participate under
 another defined contribution plan of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer
 (other than a plan excluded under the prior sentence) at any time during the
 period beginning 12 months before and ending 12 months after the date of the
 Plan’s termination.”

Except to the extent amended by this Instrument of Amendment, the Plan
shall remain in full force and effect.
