INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
Executive Supplementary Retirement Agreement
THIS AGREEMENT, effective as of the ___ day of __________, 19__,
is by and between the Ingersoll-Rand Company of Woodcliff Lake,
New Jersey, hereinafter called the Company, and _____________,
hereinafter called the Employee (certain other definitions are
defined in Schedule A, incorporated herein by reference).
WHEREAS, the Company values the efforts, abilities and
accomplishments of the Employee as an important member of
management and recognizes that his future services are vital to
its continued growth and profits, and the Company in order to
retain the services of the Employee is willing to provide
benefits for him or for his designated beneficiary as set out
below,
WHEREAS, the Employee in the past was eligible to purchase life
insurance coverage equal to two and one-half times his current
salary and average incentive compensation for the most recent
five years under the Company's existing life insurance plan, and
his eligibility thereunder has been changed to two times said
salary and incentive compensation base, as a result of being a
corporate officer and determined by the Board of Directors to be
a participant in the Executive Supplementary Retirement
Agreement,
NOW, THEREFORE, it is mutually agreed that:
1. Subject to paragraph 5 hereof, the Company shall, unless the
Employee's employment has been terminated for "Cause", pay the
Employee (or in the event of the Employee's death, to his
beneficiary) the sum of $_________ in 120 equal monthly
installments. Such payments shall commence as of the first day
of the month following the month when the Employee attains normal
retirement age, or if later, upon termination of his employment.
2. If the Employee dies prior to commencement of payments
hereunder, the Company shall pay the sum of $__________ in 120
equal monthly installments to the beneficiary of the Employee.
The death benefit paid pursuant to this paragraph 2 shall
commence as of the first day of the month following the
Employee's date of death.

3. If the Employee becomes "Disabled" while employed by the
Company prior to commencement of payments hereunder, the Company
shall pay the sum of $____________ in 120 equal monthly
installments to the Employee (or in the event of the Employee's
death, to his beneficiary). Such payments shall terminate if the
Employee recovers from such disability, and following such
recovery, any eligibility for benefits which he might then or
subsequently have under paragraph 1 or 2 of this Agreement shall
be subject to the limitation contained in paragraph 4 below. The
disability benefit paid pursuant to this paragraph 3 shall
commence as of the first day of the month in which the Employee
becomes Disabled.
4. In no event shall the Employee, if he becomes eligible for a
benefit under paragraph 3, receive any benefit under paragraphs 1
or 2 of the Agreement while a benefit is being paid under
paragraph 3. In no event shall the total payments made by the
Company to the Employee (and his beneficiary) under paragraphs 1,
2, and 3 of this Agreement exceed the sum of $____________.
5. In the event that an Employee who voluntarily terminated
employment with the Company (other than for "Good Reason")
engages in "Competition" with the Company within three years
after such termination of employment, no further benefits shall
be payable hereunder. In the event that the Employee retires from
the Company before attaining age 62 (other than for "Good Reason"
or because he becomes "Disabled"), no benefits shall be payable
hereunder.
6. The Employee may designate a beneficiary in writing to
receive the benefits payable pursuant to this Agreement. Such
beneficiary may be changed by the Employee from time to time by
written notice delivered by the Employee to the Company. If no
designated beneficiary survives the Employee, any payments
pursuant to this Agreement made subsequent to the Employee's
death shall be made to the Employee's estate.
7. Neither the Employee nor any designated beneficiary shall
have any right to sell, assign, transfer or otherwise convey the
right to receive any payments hereunder.

8. Any payments under this Agreement shall be independent of,
and in addition to, those under any other plan, program or
agreement which may be in effect between the parties hereto, or
any other compensation payable to the Employee by the Company.
This Agreement shall not be construed as a contract of employment
nor does it restrict the right of the Company to discharge the
Employee or the right of the Employee to terminate employment.
9. The Company shall be under no obligation whatsoever to
purchase or maintain any contract, policy, or other asset to
provide the benefits under this Agreement. Furthermore, any
contract, policy or other asset which the Company may utilize to
assure itself of the funds to provide the benefits hereunder
shall not serve in any way as security to the Employee for the
Company's performance under this Agreement. The rights accruing
to the Employee or his designated beneficiary shall be solely
those of an unsecured creditor of the Company. The law of the
State of New Jersey shall govern this Agreement.
10. The Company agrees that it will not merge, consolidate, or
combine with any other business entity unless and until the
succeeding or continuing corporation or business entity expressly
assumes and confirms in writing the obligations of the Company to
the Employee under this Agreement.
11. This Agreement cancels and supersedes all previous Executive
Supplementary Retirement Agreements, specifically including the
Agreement dated ____________________.
12. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written
agreement signed by the Company and the Employee.
13. Where appropriate in this Agreement, words used in the
singular shall include the plural and words used in the masculine
shall include the feminine.
