Name:

TARGET LTIP AWARD

You have been granted by EnPro Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) a Target LTIP Award under the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan for the three-year performance period 2005 through 2007, comprised of the following:

Target Performance Shares Award:       shares
Target Cash LTIP Award:      

Each Performance Share will be equivalent to one share of EnPro common stock.

Your award is subject to the terms and conditions of the Long-Term Incentive Plan and, with respect to your Performance Shares Award, the Company’s 2002 Equity Compensation Plan (2005 Amendment and Restatement) (collectively, the “Plan Documents”). If this award agreement varies from the terms of the Plan Documents, the Plan Documents will control. Attached as Appendix A is a copy of the Long-Term Incentive Plan, and attached as Appendix B is a copy of the prospectus for the Equity Compensation Plan.

PERFORMANCE GOALS

The number of Performance Shares and amount of Cash LTIP award you earn will depend on the performance of the Company relative to certain performance goals for the three-year performance cycle from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2007 (the “Performance Cycle”). The performance goals and their relative weightings with respect to the Performance Shares are attached as Appendix C hereto and with respect to the Cash LTIP award are attached as Appendix D hereto.

The determination of whether the performance goals have been met will be made by the Compensation Committee following the end of the Performance Cycle.

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION

 

 

Performance Shares will receive dividend equivalents accrued in cash (without interest) which will be subject to the performance goals and vesting provisions described above.

 

 

 

You will not earn any Performance Shares or any amount of Cash LTIP award if the Company’s performance during the 2005 — 2007 period is below threshold performance.

 

 

 

If actual performance equals or exceeds threshold performance, the number of Performance Shares earned will range from 50% to 150% of your Target Performance Share award based on attainment against the performance goals. Likewise, the amount of Cash LTIP earned will range from 20% to 200% of your Target Cash LTIP award.

 

 

 

In order to receive any Performance Shares or LTIP Cash award, you must remain employed with the Company through February 15, 2008, except in the case of death, disability or retirement as discussed below. If you terminate employment prior to February 15, 2008 for reasons other than death, disability or retirement, you will forfeit all Performance Shares and any Cash LTIP award.

 

 

 

Performance Shares earned at the end of the Performance Cycle, if any, will be paid in actual shares of Company common stock, less the number of shares to satisfy applicable withholding taxes. Any Performance Shares earned will be issued on or as soon as administratively practicable after February 15, 2008. The amount of the Cash LTIP award earned at the end of the Performance Cycle, if any, will also be reduced to satisfy applicable withholding taxes and will be paid as soon as administratively practicable after February 15, 2008.

 

 

 

If you become totally disabled under the Company’s Long-Term Disability Plan or retire under the Company’s Salaried Pension Plan (or a similar pension plan maintained by a subsidiary) during the Performance Cycle, you will receive a pro rata payout at the end of the Performance Cycle, based upon the time portion of the cycle during which you were employed. The actual payout will not occur until after the end of the Performance Cycle, at which time the financial performance for the entire Performance Cycle will be used to determine the size of the award in that event.

 

 

 

If you die during the Performance Cycle, any beneficiary you have designated by will (or, if you do not so designate a beneficiary or your designated beneficiary fails to survive you, your estate) will receive a pro rata payout based upon the financial results calculated for the portion of the Performance Cycle through the end of the fiscal quarter following your death.

 

 

 

The performance factors and weightings applicable to your award are determined based upon your position with the Company.

 

 

 

The Compensation Committee retains the right in its sole discretion to reduce any award which would otherwise be payable, unless there has been a Change in Control, as defined in the Equity Compensation Plan.

 

 

 

Any income you derive from a payout of Performance Shares or Cash LTIP award will not be considered eligible earnings for Company or subsidiary pension plans, savings plans, profit sharing plans or other benefit plans.

APPENDIX A

ENPRO INDUSTRIES, INC.
LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

PURPOSE

The EnPro Industries, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) has been established effective as of January 1, 2003 (the “Effective Date”) to provide long-term incentive compensation to key employees who are in a position to influence the performance of EnPro Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), and thereby enhance shareholder value over time. The Plan provides a significant additional financial opportunity and complements other parts of the Company’s total compensation program for key employees (base salary, annual performance plan, stock options and benefits).

ELIGIBILITY AND PERFORMANCE PERIODS

The Committee (as defined in the “Plan Administration” section of the Plan) will determine which employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time. Participants will be selected within 90 days after the beginning of each multi-year performance cycle (“Performance Period”). Each Performance Period will be of two or more years duration as determined by the Committee and will commence on January 1 of the first year of the Performance Period. A new Performance Period will commence each year unless the Committee determines otherwise.

TARGET AWARDS

At the time a Participant is selected for participation in the Plan for a Performance Period, the Committee will assign the Participant a Target LTIP Award to be earned if the Company’s target performance levels are met for the Performance Period (the “Target LTIP Award”). The Target LTIP Award may be expressed as a dollar amount, a number of Performance Shares under the Company’s Equity Compensation Plan, or a combination of a dollar amount and a number of Performance Shares. Any portion of the Target LTIP Award made in the form of Performance Shares will be evidenced by a Performance Shares award agreement consistent with the provisions of the Equity Compensation Plan.

MAXIMUM AND THRESHOLD AWARDS

At the time a Participant is selected for participation in the Plan for a Performance Period, the Participant will be assigned maximum and threshold award levels, expressed as a percentage of the Target LTIP Award. Maximum award level represents the maximum percentage of the Target LTIP Award that may be paid to a Participant for a Performance Period based on performance above target performance levels. Threshold award level represents the minimum percentage of the Target LTIP Award that may be paid to a Participant for a Performance Period based on performance below target performance levels. Performance below the threshold performance award level will earn no incentive payments.

Under no circumstances will any Participant earn an award for a Performance Period expressed in dollars exceeding $2,500,000. In addition, any award of Performance Shares hereunder shall be subject to the individual award limit applicable under the Equity Compensation Plan.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Performance measures that may be used under the Plan include Net Income, Pretax Income, Consolidated Operating Income, Segment Operating Income, Return on Equity, Operating Income Return on Net Capital Employed, Return on Assets, Cash Flow (with or without regard to asbestos), Working Capital, Share Appreciation, Total Shareholder Return relative to the manufacturing companies within the S&P 400 index, Total Business Return (calculated utilizing Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization and cash flow) and Earnings per Share of Common Stock of the Company for the Plan Year.

PERFORMANCE GOALS

The Committee will designate, within 90 days of the beginning of each Performance Period:

 

 

The performance measures and calculation methods to be used for the Performance Period;

 

 

 

 

A schedule for each performance measure relating achievement levels for the performance measure to incentive award levels as a percentage of Participants’ Target LTIP Awards; and

 

 

 

 

The relative weightings of the performance measures for the Performance Period.

 

The performance goals established by the Committee for a Performance Period are intended to satisfy the “objective compensation formula” requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.162-27(e)(2).

PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATION

As soon as practicable following the end of each Performance Period and prior to any award payments for the Performance Period, the Committee will certify the Company’s performance with respect to each performance measure used for that Performance Period.

AWARD CALCULATION AND PAYMENT

For each Performance Period, individual incentive awards will be calculated and paid to each Participant who is still employed with the Company (subject to the special provisions below for employees who terminate employment due to death, disability or retirement) as soon as practicable following the Committee’s certification of performance for the Performance Period. The amount of a Participant’s incentive award to be paid based on each individual performance measure will be calculated based on the following formula:

The incentive amounts to be paid to the Participant based on each performance measure will be summed to arrive at the Participant’s total incentive award payment for the Performance Period.

Payments from the Plan to a Participant, if any, will be made in cash (less any amount necessary to satisfy applicable withholding taxes); provided , however , that (i) if any portion of the award is in the form of Performance Shares, the applicable Performance Shares award agreement will specify whether the award will be settled in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and stock; and (ii) at the Participant’s election, receipt of all or part of an award may be deferred under the terms of the EnPro Industries, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (or other deferred compensation plan of the Company).

TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT DUE TO DEATH, DISABILITY, RETIREMENT

If a Participant becomes totally disabled under the Company’s Long-Term Disability Plan, or retires (or is deemed to retire) under the Company’s Salaried Retirement Plan during a Performance Period, the Participant will receive a pro rata payout at the end of the Performance Period, based upon the time portion of the Performance Period during which he or she was employed. The actual payout will not occur until after the end of the Performance Period, at which time the financial performance for the entire Performance Period will be used to determine the amount of the award prior to proration.

If a Participant dies during a Performance Period, the Participant will receive a pro rata payout based upon financial results calculated for the portion of the Performance Period through the end of the fiscal quarter following the Participant’s death.

OTHER TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

If a Participant’s employment terminates prior to the end of a Performance Period for any reason (whether voluntary or involuntary) other than death, disability or retirement, the Participant will forfeit all rights to compensation under the Plan, unless the Committee determines otherwise.

NEW HIRES OR PROMOTIONS INTO ELIGIBLE POSITIONS

Participants will become eligible for participation in the Plan at their new position level beginning with the Performance Period which begins on the January 1 immediately following their hire or promotion date. No new performance awards or adjustments to awards for Performance Periods that commenced prior to a Participant’s hire or promotion date will be made.

PAYMENT UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL

Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Change in Control occurs prior to the end of a Performance Period, within five days following the occurrence of the Change in Control each Participant will receive a pro rata payout of the Participant’s award for that Performance Period based upon the portion of the Performance Period completed through the date of the Change in Control and the performance results calculated for that period (the “Interim LTIP Payment”). The Participant shall also remain entitled to a payout upon completion of the Performance Period based on performance results for the entire Performance Period, such payout to be offset be the amount of the Interim LTIP Payment (if any); provided, however, that the Participant will not be required to refund to the Company, or have offset against any other payment due to the Participant from or on behalf of the Company, in the event the amount of the Interim LTIP Payment exceeds the amount of the payout upon completion of the Performance Period.

For purposes of the Plan, a “Change in Control” shall mean:

(i) The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (A) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided , however , that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company (other than by exercise of a conversion privilege), (B) any acquisition by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (D) any acquisition by any company with respect to which, following such acquisition, more than 70% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such company and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such acquisition in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, solely in their capacity as shareholders of the Company, immediately prior to such acquisition, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be; or

(ii) individuals who, as of the Effective Date, constitute the Board of Directors (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors; provided , however , that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Effective Date whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest; or

(iii) consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, in each case, with respect to which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation, do not, following such reorganization, merger or consolidation, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, solely in their capacity as shareholders of the Company, more than 70% of, respectively, the then outstanding  shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the company resulting from such reorganization, merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be; or

(iv) consummation of (A) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or (B) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, other than to a company, with respect to which following such sale or other disposition, more than 70% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such company and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities, solely in their capacity as shareholders of the Company, who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership,
