           Contribution Account for each Plan Year for each Participant who receives a Supplemental Contribution for such Plan Year.  All
           Supplemental Contributions shall be credited to the Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account on the same date that the Participant's
           Deferral Amount applicable to a Cash Incentive Compensation Award for which the Supplemental Contribution is being made is credited to
           the Participant's Deferral Account pursuant to Section 6.1.  All of a Participant's Supplemental Contributions shall be deemed to be invested
           in, and shall remain deemed to be invested in, IR Stock in the Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account until the Participant
           completes an Election Form to the effect that all or a portion of the Participant's vested Supplemental Contribution Account will be deemed
           to be invested in one or more of the investment options under the Investment Option Subaccounts or until such amounts are distributed in
           cash from the Plan.

           All Supplemental Contributions shall initially be credited to a Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account in units or fractional units of
           IR Stock.  The value of each unit shall be determined each business day and shall equal the closing price of one share of IR Stock on the
           New York Stock Exchange-Composite Tape.  On each date that Supplemental Contributions are credited to a Participant's Supplemental
           Contribution Account, the number of units to be credited shall be determined by dividing the number of units by the value of a unit on such
           date.

          Dividends paid on IR Stock shall be reflected in a Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account by the crediting of additional units or
          fractional units.  Such additional units or fractional units shall equal the value of the dividends based upon the closing price of one share of IR
          Stock on the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Tape on the date such dividends are paid.

          To the extent a Participant completes an Election Form to make a deemed investment in one or more of the investment options under the
          Investment Option Subaccounts, a Participant's vested Supplemental Contribution Account shall be credited as follows:

        (a)     On the day a Participant makes a deemed investment election in one of the Investment Option Subaccounts, the Administrative
                 Committee shall credit the Investment Option Subaccounts of the Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account with an amount in
                 accordance with the Participant's Election Form; that is, the portion of the Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account that the
                 Participant has elected to be deemed to be invested in a certain type of investment option shall be credited to the Investment Option
                 Subaccount corresponding to that investment option.

        (b)    Each business day, each Investment Option Subaccount of a Participant's Supplemental Contribution Account shall be adjusted
                 for earnings or losses in an amount equal to that determined by multiplying the balance credited to such Investment Option Subaccount
                 as of the prior day plus contributions credited that day to the Investment Option Subaccount by the Return for the corresponding
                 investment option."

8.             Effective September 20, 2004Section 10.10 is hereby amended to read as follows:

                  directed to the attention of the Senior Vice President, Human Resources. Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery
