     WHEREAS, Kewaunee Scientific Corporation (the "Company") sponsors and
maintains the Kewaunee Scientific Corporation Executive Deferred Compensation
Plan (the "Plan"), which was most recently amended and restated in order to
incorporate amendments one through four that had been made to the Plan; and

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company, upon the recommendation of
the Compensation Committee, has determined that it is desirable to amend the
Plan, effective as of March 1, 2003, to increase the amount of Supplemental
Company Matching Contributions made with respect to a Participant's Pay Deferral
Contributions; and

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company, upon the recommendation of
the Compensation Committee, has further determined that it is desirable to amend
the Plan to grant Participant's a one-time election to increase the amount of
their Pay Deferral Contributions in order to take advantage of the increase in
the amount of Supplemental Company Matching Contributions, with such election
being effective with respect to compensation earned on and after April 1, 2003.

     NOW THEREFORE, in accordance with the resolutions of the Board of Directors
of the Company, the Plan is hereby amended in the particulars as follows, which
hereinafter shall constitute the First Amendment to the Plan.

effective as of March 1, 2003, each individual who is a Participant hereunder as
of said date, may make a one-time election to increase his or her pay deferral
election with respect to his or her compensation which is payable beginning on
and after April 1, 2003. With the exception of the availability of the one-time
election mentioned in the foregoing sentence, any and all other pay deferral
elections under the Plan shall be made in accordance with the rules in effect
prior to March 1, 2003."



     SECOND: Effective as of March 1, 2003, Section 4.1 of the Plan is amended
in its entirety to replace the present language with the language as follows:

     "4.1 Supplemental Company Matching Contributions. For each Plan Year
commencing prior to March 1, 2003, and for the period beginning January 1, 2003
and ending February 28, 2003, the Company shall make supplemental matching
contributions on behalf of each Participant in an amount equal to 50 percent of
the Participant's pay deferral contributions under Section 3.1 for such Plan
Year but not to exceed (i) four percent of the Participant's compensation for
the Plan Year (determined without regard to any limit on the total amount of
compensation that may be considered under the Company's Incentive Savings Plan)
reduced by (ii) the amount of Matching Contributions made on behalf of the
Participant under the Company's Incentive Savings Plan for the Plan Year.
Effective as of March 1, 2003 and for each Plan Year beginning thereafter, the
Company shall make supplemental matching contributions on behalf of each
Participant in an amount equal to 50 percent of the Participant's pay deferral
contributions under Section 3.1 for such Plan Year but not to exceed (i) six
percent of the Participant's compensation for the Plan Year (determined without
regard to any limit on the total amount of compensation that may be considered
under the Company's Incentive Savings Plan) reduced by (ii) the amount of
Matching Contributions made on behalf of the Participant under the Company's
Incentive Savings Plan for the Plan Year. The amount of the matching
contributions made hereunder shall be credited as described in Section 4.2 to a
bookkeeping account to be maintained on behalf of each Participant, to be called
the Supplemental Company Matching Account."
