Recapitalization Proposal is then recommended by the Board in accordance with
this Agreement and all other actions required in furtherance thereof, (b) in
the case of the CHK Class B Shares, in favor of the Proposed Charter Governance
Amendments and all other actions required in furtherance thereof and (c)
against any proposal that (I) is inconsistent with or contrary to the terms and
conditions of whichever of the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal is then recommended by the Board in accordance with
this Agreement, the Proposed Charter Governance Amendments or the Proposed
Bylaw Governance Amendments or (II) would result in a breach of any covenant,
representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of CHK or any
other Party contained in this Agreement and (ii) within two business days
following the expiration of the Permitted Termination Period, to cause to be
provided to the Company a fully executed copy of the irrevocable proxy in the
form attached as Exhibit J hereto; provided, that such proxy need not be so
provided if the Expiration Date shall have occurred and this Agreement shall
not have been reinstated pursuant to Paragraph 14(b).

         11. The Company and the Shareholders approve of the issuance of the
public announcement of this Agreement as previously reviewed and agreed among
them and to consult with, and obtain the approval of, each other before issuing
any other press release or making any other public announcement with respect to
this Agreement, except in each such case as may be required by applicable law
or the Company's listing agreement with Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.

         12. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
specified definitions:

             (a) the "Permitted Termination Period" shall be the period
beginning from the later of (i) the date of this Agreement and (ii) the date of
public announcement of this Agreement, and, unless sooner ended under Paragraph
14(b) or 15(d), continuing until the later of (i) 35 days after the beginning
of the Permitted Termination Period and (ii) five days following written notice
by the Company to the Shareholders that the Company has received confirmation
by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") that it will
act promptly on a request by the Company for acceleration of effectiveness of
the registration statement containing the Meeting Documents (as defined in
Paragraph 22);

             (b) the "Expiration Date" shall be the earliest to occur of the
following: (i) the termination of this Agreement by the Shareholders as
permitted in Paragraph 14(a) unless this Agreement shall have been reinstated
pursuant to Paragraph 14(b); (ii) the consummation of the Proposed
Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal; (iii) the holders
of Class A Stock shall have failed to approve the Proposed Recapitalization or
the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal at the Shareholders' Meeting (it being
understood that other matters unrelated to this Agreement may be set forth on
the meeting agenda); (iv) the Board shall have determined not to proceed with
the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal as
permitted in Paragraph 21(b); (v) in the event that no Amendment Notice shall
be given under Paragraph 15(b) or a second arbitration commenced under
Paragraph 15(c), the day that is six months after the date of this Agreement;
and (vi) in the event that an Amendment Notice shall be given under Paragraph
15(b) or a second arbitration commenced under Paragraph 15(c), the date
determined under clause (v) plus the number of days by which the Arbitration
Period shall have been extended beyond the Arbitration Period that would have
applied had there been no Amendment Notice and no second arbitration;

             (c) "affiliate" of any person shall mean another person that
directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is
controlled by, or is under common control with, such first person, where
"control" means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct
or cause the direction of the management policies of a person, whether through
the ownership of voting securities, by contract, as trustee or executor, or
otherwise; and

             (d) "person" means an individual, corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, association, trust, unincorporated
organization or other entity.

         13. (a) The Shareholders hereby represent and warrant to the
Company that they have delivered to Thomas Groark of Day, Berry & Howard, as
custodian, fully executed copies of the irrevocable proxies to be delivered
pursuant to Paragraphs 2 through 10 of this Agreement and the share
certificates to be delivered by them pursuant to the next sentence. Not more
than two business days following the expiration of the Permitted Termination
Period, the Shareholders shall cause to be presented to the Company the stock
certificates representing the Shares held by them for the purpose of placing an
appropriate legend concerning the restrictions on transfer and voting imposed
hereby and noting the existence of an irrevocable proxy with respect to the
Shares represented by such certificate; provided, that such stock certificates
need not be so presented if the Expiration Date shall have occurred and this
Agreement shall not have been reinstated pursuant to Paragraph 14(b). Unless
otherwise permitted under this Agreement, none of the Shareholders shall
request that the Company register the transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of any
certificate or uncertificated interest representing any of their Shares.

             (b) The Company agrees that if the Expiration Date occurs and
neither the Recapitalization Proposal nor the Substitute Recapitalization
Proposal shall have been consummated, the Company shall within two business
days thereafter deliver to Thomas Groark of Day, Berry & Howard, as custodian,
(i) any irrevocable proxies previously delivered by the Shareholders under
Paragraph 13(a) and (ii) either any share certificates previously delivered by
the Shareholders under Paragraph 13(a) or replacement share certificates in the
same amounts and with the same registered holders as any share certificates so
previously delivered by the Shareholders, in each case without any legend.

         14. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this
Agreement, the Shareholders, or any of them, may until the expiration of the
Permitted Termination Period engage in discussions concerning any transaction
involving the possible sale or other disposition of their Class B Shares,
whether or not such transaction might result in a Business Combination (as
defined in Paragraph 17) (any such sale or other disposition an "Alternative
Transaction"), and terminate this Agreement to complete an Alternative
Transaction, if (i) such Alternative Transaction constitutes a "Qualifying
Alternative Transaction" (as defined in Paragraph 14(c)), (ii) none of the
Shareholders or their representatives or agents shall have taken any action
from and after the date of this Agreement to solicit either such Qualifying
Alternative Transaction or any other Alternative Transaction, it being agreed,
however, that engaging in discussions or negotiations with a third party with
whom or with which discussions concerning a possible sale of their Class B
Shares have been held by or on behalf of Kaman or any of the other Shareholders
prior to November 15, 2004, all such parties having been separately identified
in writing by the Shareholders to the Company, or with a third party that shall
have proposed to a Shareholder a Qualifying Alternative Transaction without
having been approached by a Shareholder on or after the date of this Agreement,
shall not be deemed to have violated this clause (ii), (iii) within two
business days following any such discussions having reached a stage that the
Shareholders reasonably believe in good faith are likely to result in an
agreement with the third party proposing such possible Qualifying Alternative
Transaction, the Shareholders shall have given to the Company written notice
that the Shareholders are in discussions concerning a possible Qualifying
Alternative Transaction, (iv) the Shareholders shall have given to the Company
a written notice of their intent to terminate this Agreement to complete such
Qualifying Alternative Transaction (a "QAT Termination Notice) and the Company
shall not have publicly announced a "Substitute Recapitalization Proposal" (as
defined in Paragraph 16(a)) within the Match Period (as defined in Paragraph
16(b)), and (v) the Reimbursement Parties (as defined in Paragraph 25(a)) shall
have fully reimbursed the Company for any and all Defense Costs (as defined in
Paragraph 25(a)) theretofore reimbursed by the Company not later than the time
of the giving of the QAT Termination Notice (whether such reimbursement
obligation arose under Paragraph 25 or otherwise); provided, that such
reimbursement obligation shall not include any Defense Costs attributable to
counsel representing the directors of the Company generally. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Shareholders shall not enter into any agreement under this
Paragraph 14 contemplating a transaction that would be restricted under
Paragraphs 17 through 20 unless such agreement shall specifically provide that
it shall not be a breach thereunder for the Company to make and consummate a
Substitute Recapitalization Proposal.

             (b) In the event that the Shareholders shall terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 14(a) but such Qualifying Alternative
Transaction shall not have been completed on the stated terms as to all of the
shares of Class B Stock owned by the Shareholders (the "Covered Class B
Shares") within ten business days following the earlier to occur of the end of
the Match Period and the Company's written notice to the Shareholders that it
does not intend to announce a Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, the
Shareholders shall immediately abandon such Qualifying Alternative Transaction
and such termination of this Agreement shall be deemed immediately rescinded
with the effect that this Agreement shall be immediately reinstated and the
Permitted Termination Period shall be deemed to have ended. In the event of
such reinstatement, the Reimbursement Parties' right to reimbursement for
Defense Costs under this Agreement shall also be reinstated, retroactive to the
date of the QAT Termination Notice, and the Company shall be required to repay
to the Reimbursement Parties Defense Costs reimbursed by the Reimbursement
Parties to the Company within two business days following receipt by the
Company of written notice from the Shareholders that such Qualifying
Alternative Transaction shall have been abandoned.

            (c) In order to be a "Qualifying Alternative Transaction" for
purposes of this Agreement, a proposed transaction must (i) have proposed
consideration to be paid that is clearly specified and not dependent upon
determinations by the Arbiter (as defined in Paragraph 15(a)) and consists
solely of cash and/or freely marketable, publicly traded securities, with all
outstanding shares of Class B Stock being offered the same consideration, (ii)
have a "Class B Share Deemed Value" (as defined in Paragraph 16(d)) of not less
than $46.62, (iii) offer to purchase not less than all of the outstanding
shares of Class B Stock (including shares held by persons other than the
Shareholders) by a third party that is not an affiliate of any Shareholder (the
"Third Party Offeror"), (iv) have no conditions as to the purchase of the
Covered Class B Shares other than the delivery to the Third Party Offeror of
title to the Covered Class B Shares, subject to no liens or transfer
restrictions other than those created by the Third Party Offeror or imposed by
the securities laws, (v) have no termination right on the part of the Third
Party Offeror other than (A) in the event of an "act of God" such as a plant
explosion or a strike materially adversely affecting the Company (a "Covered
Act of God"), the first public disclosure or written notice to the Third Party
Offeror of which occurs after the giving of the QAT Termination Notice and
prior to the giving of the last Reaffirmation (as defined below) by the Third
Party Offeror, or (B) the Company entering into a material acquisition or
divestiture agreement, declaring an extraordinary dividend or issuing shares of
Class B Stock (a "Company Action"), the first public disclosure or written
notice to the Third Party Offeror of which occurs after the giving of the QAT
Termination Notice, (vi) be required to close on the stated terms or abandoned
as to the Covered Class B Shares within ten business days following the Company
notifying the Shareholders that the Board has determined not to approve a
Substitute Recapitalization Proposal and (vii) include an undertaking from the
Third Party Offeror that the offer to holders of Class B Stock other than the
Shareholders will comply with any relevant securities laws and that the Third
Party Offeror will accept such shares for purchase as promptly as the
securities laws permit. In order for a proposed transaction to be a "Qualifying
Alternative Transaction" for purposes of this Agreement, the Shareholders and
the Third Party Offeror each must (i) at the time of the giving of the QAT
Termination Notice, certify that the proposed transaction has been entered into
with a good faith intention that it be completed on the stated terms promptly
in the event that the Company were not to announce a Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal and, in the case of the Third Party Offeror, also
certifying as to the sufficiency and prompt availability of any required funds
and the due authorization, validity and eligibility for immediate trading of
any freely marketable, publicly traded securities proposed to be included as
consideration (each, an "Initial Certificate"), and (ii) promptly following a
request therefor by the Company, reaffirm in writing the substance of its
Initial Certificate and, in the case of the Third Party Offeror, covenant to
the Shareholders and the Company that it will not exercise its termination
right in respect of any Covered Act of God or Company Action as to which there
shall have been public disclosure or written notice provided to the Third Party
Offeror prior to the giving of such reaffirmation and covenant (each such
reaffirmation and/or covenant, a "Reaffirmation"). The Shareholders must also
submit to the Company (and to the Arbiter if an arbitration is commenced under
Paragraph 15) (i) a complete and accurate copy of all agreements between the
Shareholders and the Third Party Offeror relating to the proposed transaction
(the "Third Party Agreements"), (ii) the Shareholders' calculation of the Class
B Share Deemed Value for the purpose of such proposed transaction (the
"Proposed Deemed Value Calculation") and (iii) in the event that the Company
and CWK shall not theretofore have reached an agreement as to the extent of
CWK's right to indemnification as a director under Connecticut law, the Charter
and the Company's Bylaws in respect of any Claims (as defined in Paragraph
25(a)) that may have been made (the "CWK Claim Coverage"), the Shareholders'
position as to the extent of the CWK Claim Coverage for such Claims.

         15. (a) Should the Company determine to do so, within five
business days following its receipt of a QAT Termination Notice, it may submit
to one of the arbiters previously agreed upon between the Company and the
Shareholders (the "Arbiter") the following issue(s): (i) whether a proposed
transaction meets the standard of a Qualifying Alternative Transaction; (ii)
whether the Proposed Deemed Value Calculation is correct; (iii) whether the
Shareholders and Reimbursement Parties have met the other conditions of
terminating this Agreement under clauses (ii), (iii) and (v) of Paragraph
14(a); and/or (iv) the extent of the CWK Claim Coverage, after taking into
account the nature of the Claims, including whether the Claims relate to
actions or failures to act by CWK as a director, a shareholder or otherwise. If
it does so, the Company shall provide in its submission to the Arbiter its
position as to those issues submitted for arbitration. The Shareholders shall
then have two business days in which to provide a submission to the Arbiter and
the Company explaining their positions as to those issues submitted for
arbitration. The Arbiter shall be directed to make a determination as to each
of the issues submitted for arbitration within ten business days following the
receipt of such submission by the Shareholders (the "Arbitration Period"). In
the event that the Arbiter determines that the proposed transaction is a
Qualified Alternative Transaction but the Proposed Deemed Value Calculation is
not correct, the Arbiter shall also determine the Class B Deemed Share Value.
In the event that the Arbiter is asked to make a determination as to the extent
of the CWK Claim Coverage, the Arbiter shall in his determination distinguish
between indemnifiable Claims for actions or failures to act as a director and
non-indemnifiable Claims for actions or failures to act as a shareholder or
other capacity and provide a detailed explanation as to how he distinguished
such Claims.

             (b) If the Company determines to submit the matter to arbitration,
the Shareholders shall have a single opportunity to amend the Third Party
Agreements in order to meet the requirements of a Qualifying Alternative
Transaction. Written notice of any such amendment (an "Amendment Notice") must
be given to both the Company and the Arbiter not later than one business day
following the Arbiter having issued his determination and be accompanied by
complete and accurate copies of the amended agreements, an updated Proposed
Deemed Value Calculation and updated Initial Certificates from the Shareholders
and the Third Party Offeror. The Company shall have five business days
following its receipt of an Amendment Notice to determine whether to submit the
proposed transaction, as amended, to arbitration. In the event that an
Amendment Notice is given prior to the Arbiter having issued a determination
and the Company determines to submit the amended transaction for arbitration,
the Arbiter's determination will be then due ten business days following the
receipt of notice of the Company's determination. In the event that an
Amendment Notice is given following the Arbiter having issued a determination
and the Company determines to submit the amended transaction for arbitration,
the Arbiter's determination will be then due five business days following the
receipt of notice of the Company's determination. If the amendment as to which
an Amendment Notice relates changes the Class B Deemed Value of the proposed
transaction, then the Arbiter shall determine the Class B Deemed Value for the
transaction as originally proposed and the Class B Deemed Value for the
transaction as amended, and the average of the two shall be used for purposes
of establishing the minimum value of a Substitute Recapitalization Proposal
under Paragraph 16.

             (c) In the event that the initial Arbiter fails to render a
determination by the end of the Arbitration Period, and the Parties shall not
otherwise have agreed, as to all matters that have been submitted for
arbitration, the services of the initial Arbiter shall be immediately
terminated and only those matters as to which the Arbiter shall have rendered a
determination shall be deemed to be settled. In the event that any of the
Parties determines to do so, a new arbitration process as to all such items
neither so determined or agreed between the Parties shall be commenced promptly
with one of the substitute arbiters agreed by the Parties serving as the
Arbiter. At the time of or promptly following commencement of such new
arbitration process, the Parties will submit to the Arbiter the materials
submitted by them in the first arbitration. Such new arbitration shall have a
ten business day Arbitration Period beginning to run from the date of receipt
by the Arbiter of submissions from both the Company and the Shareholders and
the same procedural requirements as set forth above. In the event that the
second Arbiter fails to render a determination by the end of the new
Arbitration Period and the Parties shall not otherwise have agreed as to all
such items, the services of the second Arbiter shall be immediately terminated
and only those matters as to which the Arbiter shall have rendered a
determination shall be deemed to be settled; provided, that, unless the Arbiter
shall have determined otherwise, the proposed transaction shall be deemed to be
a Qualifying Alternative Transaction and the other conditions to the
Shareholders' termination of this Agreement under Paragraph 14(a) shall be
deemed to be met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only those proposed arbiters
who actually confirm their engagement and accept submissions under Paragraph
15(a) or this Paragraph 15(c) shall be deemed to have been the Arbiter for
purposes of determining application of the proviso to the immediately preceding
sentence.

             (d) In the event that an Amendment Notice is given or a second
arbitration process is commenced under Paragraph 15(c), the Permitted
Termination Period shall be deemed to end on (i) the earlier to occur of the
date determined under Paragraph 12(a) and 75 days following the initial filing
with the SEC of the registration statement containing the Meeting Documents or
(ii) the day the arbitration process is completed, if later than the date
determined under clause (i).

             (e) Each of the Company and the Shareholders agrees (i) to comply
promptly with requests from the Arbiter for information or to schedule any oral
presentations to the Arbiter, (ii) that all submissions to the Arbiter will be
provided at the same time to the other party and that all contacts with the
Arbiter will be made jointly, and (iii) that the Arbiter's fee and expenses
will be paid 50% by the Shareholders and 50% by the Company. It is agreed that
each arbiter engaged under this Paragraph 15 shall be treated as the Arbiter
for purposes of this provision.

             (f) The Parties acknowledge that public disclosure would need to
be made as to the specifics of a proposed transaction promptly following a QAT
Termination Notice being given and as to the Arbiter's determinations when they
are made.

         16. (a) In the event that the Shareholders were to propose a
termination of this Agreement to complete a Qualifying Alternative Transaction
by giving a QAT Termination Notice under Paragraph 14(a), the Company would
have the right to leave this Agreement in place and retain the Shareholders'
contractual support thereunder by publicly announcing its revision of the
Proposed Recapitalization such that the number of shares of Class A Stock to be
received upon exchange of each share of Class B Stock would be increased to the
number of shares needed for the "Class B Share Deemed Value" of the revised
proposed recapitalization (as so revised, the "Substitute Recapitalization
Proposal") to be equal to the Class B Share Deemed Value in the Qualified
Alternative Transaction, plus $.65. There would also be a revised part
cash/part stock alternative which would have the same Class B Share Deemed
Value as the revised all stock alternative and the same proportion of stock and
cash as under the current recapitalization proposal (i.e., 48.7% cash and 51.3%
stock). For such purposes, share amounts will be rounded to the nearest 1/100
of a share and dollar amounts will be rounded to the nearest cent. In
connection with any Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, the Shareholders
agree to elect to take the part cash/part stock alternative to the extent
requested to do so by the Company, following the advice of its counsel, to
avoid application of the higher vote requirement of Section 33-841 of the
Connecticut Business Corporation Act to the Substitute Recapitalization
Proposal.

             (b) The Company may exercise the right to substitute a revised
recapitalization proposal under Paragraph 16(a) during the "Match Period",
which would commence upon the Company's receipt of the QAT Termination Notice
and end on the close of business on the later to occur of (i) the tenth
business day following the Company's receipt of the QAT Termination Notice and
(ii) the fifth business day following a determination by the Arbiter (or a
deemed determination under Paragraph 15(c)) that a proposed transaction meets
the requirements of a Qualified Alternative Transaction. The Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal would include the same proposed governance provisions
and be subject to the shareholder approval requirements as contemplated for the
Recapitalization Proposal. If the Company were to so exercise the right of
substitution, the Shareholders' right to Defense Costs under this Agreement
would be reinstated, retroactive to the date of the QAT Termination Notice, and
the Company would be required to repay to the Shareholders Defense Costs
reimbursed by the Shareholders to the Company on the same day that the Company
notifies the Shareholders that the Company has exercised such right of
substitution.

             (c) In the event that the Company were to publicly announce a
Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, the Shareholders would not be permitted
to complete the Qualified Alternative Transaction unless this Agreement were to
be later terminated without the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal having
been completed other than by reason of a failure of the Shareholders to have
performed their obligations under this Agreement.

             (d) For purposes of this Agreement, the "Class A Share Deemed
Value" of one share of Class A Stock to be received under the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal would be equal to $15.54. If a proposed transaction
includes only the purchase of shares of Class B Stock and is solely for cash,
the "Class B Share Deemed Value" of the shares of Class B Stock in such
transaction will be the aggregate amount of cash proposed to be paid to the
Shareholders for the Covered Class B Shares divided by the number of Covered
Class B Shares proposed to be purchased from the Shareholders. If a proposed
transaction includes only the purchase of shares of Class B Stock and if the
consideration includes freely marketable, publicly traded securities, the
"Class B Share Deemed Value" of the shares of Class B Stock will be the
aggregate amount of cash and the aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined below)
of such securities proposed to be paid to the Shareholders for the Covered
Class B Shares divided by the number of Covered Class B Shares proposed to be
purchased from the Shareholders. If a proposed transaction also includes the
purchase of any shares of Class A Stock from the Shareholders, (i) such shares
of Class A Stock shall be valued at the greater of the value per share ascribed
to them in such proposed transaction (determined using the same methodology as
above for valuing shares of Class B Stock) and the Class A Share Deemed Value,
and (ii) all remaining consideration shall be allocated to the Covered Class B
Shares proposed to be purchased from the Shareholders to determine the "Class B
Share Deemed Value" of the Covered Class B Shares proposed to be purchased from
the Shareholders.

             (e) The "Fair Market Value" of freely marketable, publicly traded
securities proposed as consideration for the shares of Class B Stock and/or
Class A Stock shall be established by reference to the average closing sale
prices for such securities on the principal exchange or quotation system where
they are traded over the ten trading day period ending on the trading day prior
to the giving of the QAT Termination Notice. Publicly traded securities shall
be deemed to be "freely marketable" for such purposes if (i) there is no
restriction on the trading of such securities other than compliance with the
securities laws and (ii) the issuer of such securities has (A) effected
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), registration of such
securities at the time of issuance, (B) agreed to promptly effect Securities
Act registration of such securities on a resale basis as promptly as
practicable following the time of issuance or (C) represented that no
Securities Act registration is needed for either the issuance or resale of such
securities.

             (f) For example, assume that the "Class A Share Deemed Value" is
$15.00 and, to make the math simpler, the Shareholders have 500,000 shares of
Class B Stock and 700,000 shares of Class A Stock. Also assume that as part of
a proposed transaction the proposed purchase price to be paid for the
Shareholders' 500,000 shares of Class B Stock is $20.0 million in cash and
publicly traded securities with a Fair Market Value of $3.5 million and the
proposed purchase price to be paid for the Shareholders' 700,000 shares of
Class A Stock is $5.0 million and publicly traded securities with a Fair Market
Value of $2.0 million. The average stated price for the shares of Class A Stock
is $10.00 per share (the sum of $5.0 million plus $2.0 million, divided by
700,000 shares of Class A Stock). Since this is less than the Class A Share
Deemed Value of $15.00, the difference of $3.5 million ($5.00 per share times
700,000 shares of Class A Stock) needs to be deducted from the $23.5 million
otherwise attributed to the shares of Class B Stock ($20.0 million plus $3.5
million). This leaves $20.0 million attributable to the 500,000 shares of Class
B Stock, for a "Class B Share Deemed Value" of $40.00 ($20.0 million divided by
500,000 shares of Class B Stock). Since the minimum level for a Qualifying
Alternative Transaction is $45.00 ($15.00 times three), this proposed
transaction would not be a Qualifying Alternative Transaction. If, on the other
hand, the average stated price for the shares of Class A Stock had been $15.00
or more and the proposed consideration cash and non-cash for the Class B shares
remained the same as in the example, there would be no adjustment for the
consideration proposed to be paid for the shares of Class A Stock and the
"Class B Share Deemed Value" of the proposed transaction would be $47.00 ($23.5
million divided by 500,000 shares of Class B Stock) and accordingly it would
qualify as a Qualifying Alternative Transaction and the minimum "Class B Share
Deemed Value" for a revised recapitalization proposal would need to be $47.65.

         18. Newgate hereby agrees, and hereby agrees on behalf of its

         19. Oldgate hereby agrees, and hereby agrees on behalf of its

except for the arrangements granting power to Oldgate under the Oldgate
Partnership Agreement existing as of the date of this Agreement without giving
effect to any arrangements or transactions undertaken by or on behalf of
Oldgate under such agreement occurring on or after the date of this Agreement
(whether or not entered into prior to the date of this Agreement), or (v) enter
into or continue any discussions or negotiations with, or provide information,
advice, aid, cooperation or assistance to, or explore, initiate, solicit or
facilitate interest from, or enter into or consummate any transaction with, any
third party or its representatives and agents relating to the foregoing matters
in this Paragraph 19 or a Business Combination.

         20. Each of the Shareholders (other than Kaman, Newgate and Oldgate)
hereby agrees, and hereby agrees on behalf of its representatives and agents,
except as permitted by Paragraph 14 or 15 or as otherwise specifically
contemplated by this Agreement, not to directly or indirectly at any time prior

to take any of the foregoing actions in this Paragraph 20, or (v) enter into or

interest from, or enter into or consummate any transaction with, any third

this Paragraph 20 or a Business Combination.

         21. (a) A special meeting of the Company's shareholders (the
"Shareholders' Meeting") shall be held as soon as reasonably practicable after
the expiration of the Permitted Termination Period for the purpose of obtaining
approval of (i) whichever of the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal as is then recommended by the Board in accordance
with this Agreement, by the affirmative vote of the votes cast within the
voting group favoring the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal exceeding the votes cast opposing the Proposed
Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, with respect to
the Class A Stock and Class B Stock each voting as a separate class and (ii)
the Proposed Charter Governance Amendments, by the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of the Class B Stock
(collectively, the "Shareholder Approval"), and the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Shareholder Approval, including
the use of a proxy statement reflecting this Agreement and setting forth the
manner in which holders of Class B Stock may elect to receive the Alternative
Class B Stock Consideration and in which the Board recommends (a) to the
holders of the Class B Stock to vote for the approval of the Proposed
Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal as contemplated by
this Agreement and the Proposed Charter Governance Amendments and (b) to the
holders of the Class A Stock to vote for the approval of the Proposed
Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal as contemplated by
this Agreement. The Proposed Charter Governance Amendments and the Proposed
Bylaw Governance Provisions, by their terms, shall not take effect if the
Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal does not
occur.

             (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, either of the Special Committee
or the Board may (w) withdraw, modify or propose to withdraw or modify its
recommendation of, or fail to implement one or more of the Proposed Charter
Governance Amendments or the Proposed Bylaw Governance Provisions, (x)
withdraw, modify or propose to withdraw or modify its recommendation of the
Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, (y) fail
to call, delay or cancel the Shareholders' Meeting, and/or (z) in the case of
the Board, terminate this Agreement, in each case if it determines in good
faith it would be appropriate to do so in the exercise of its fiduciary duties;
provided, that (i) no such modification or proposal to modify under clause (w)
may add proposed amendments or have the reasonably likely effect of reducing
shareholder influence unless such modification or proposal to modify is
required by a change in law or regulation or NASDAQ listing rules, and (ii) any
such action under clause (x), (y) or (z) must be based principally on a
material change or development or material information coming to the attention
of the Special Committee or the Board following the date of this Agreement or,
if there is a Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, the date of Board approval
of such Substitute Recapitalization Proposal.

             (c) In the event that the Company shall terminate this Agreement
under Paragraph 21(b)(z) before either the Proposed Recapitalization or the
Substitute Recapitalization Proposal has been submitted for Shareholder
Approval, the Company shall reimburse the actual, out of pocket expenses of the
Shareholders incurred in connection with negotiating this Agreement and in
pursuing a Qualifying Alternative Transaction; provided, that (w) such
reimbursement obligation shall not include Defense Costs, any amounts paid to
satisfy judgments or settlements of Claims, any amounts paid to Compass
Partners or other financial advisor or any amounts paid in respect of fees or
expenses of the Arbiter, (x) the Shareholders must provide reasonable
documentation as to such expenses, including a reasonably detailed description
of the hours worked and services provided by counsel or other advisors, (y)
such reimbursement obligation shall be limited to $750,000 in the aggregate if
there shall not have been a Substitute Recapitalization Proposal and $1,250,000
in the aggregate if there shall have been a Substitute Recapitalization
Proposal and (z) the Shareholders agree to return to the Company within two
business days the amount so reimbursed in the event that, within six months
following termination under Paragraph 21(b)(z), the Shareholders sell any of
their Covered Class B shares at an average price in excess of the then current
market price for the shares of Class A Common Stock, it being agreed that, if
both shares of Class A Stock and shares of Class B Stock are sold in the same
transaction (or a series of related transactions), the shares of Class A Stock
so sold shall be deemed to be sold at the then current market price for such
shares and the Covered Class B Shares so sold shall be deemed to be sold for
the balance of the gross sale proceeds; provided, that the amount to be so
reimbursed shall be limited to the aggregate amount of excess proceeds received
for the Class B Stock over the then current trading price for the Class A
Stock.

         22. Each of the Shareholders agrees, and agrees to cause its, his or
her representatives and agents, to provide all information and materials and
take all such action as may be required in order to permit the Company to
promptly comply with all applicable requirements of the SEC with respect to the
relevant documents prepared for the Shareholders' Meeting (the "Meeting
Documents"), including its identity and ownership of Shares and the nature of
its commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement. The
Shareholders shall not be responsible for the description of the terms of this
Agreement in the Meeting Documents. Each of the Shareholders and its counsel
shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Meeting
Documents before the filing thereof with the SEC, and the Meeting Documents as
filed with the SEC shall be reasonably satisfactory, in form and substance, to
the Shareholders and their counsel. The Company disclaims any liability for
statements made or incorporated by reference in the Meeting Documents based on
information and materials provided by or on behalf of the Shareholders
expressly for inclusion or incorporation by reference therein.

         23. For so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, each of the
Shareholders agrees, and shall cause its, his or her representatives and
agents, not to, (i) act in concert with any other person (other than the other
Shareholders in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement) by
becoming a member of a 13D Group (as defined below), (ii) solicit, initiate or
participate in any "solicitation" of "proxies" or become a "participant" in any
"election contest" (as such terms are defined or used in Regulation 14A under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), (iii)
call, or participate in a call for, any special meeting of shareholders of the
Company, (iv) participate in or solicit shareholders of the Company for the
approval of, one or more shareholder proposals or (v) assist, advise or act in
concert with any person (other than the Company or its advisors) with respect
to, or seek to do, any of the foregoing. For purposes of this Paragraph 23,
"13D Group" shall mean any group of persons acquiring, holding, voting or
disposing of Class A Stock that would be required under Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder (assuming the Class A
Stock is an "equity security" within the meaning of Rule 13d-1(i) of the
Exchange Act) to file a statement on Schedule 13D with the SEC as a "person"
within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act if such group
beneficially owned Class A Stock representing more than 5% of the Class A Stock
then outstanding; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the
rights and obligations of the Shareholders set forth herein, including
concerning a Qualifying Alternative Transaction, or the ability of the
Shareholders to confer and communicate with each other and their
representatives and agents with regard to the Class A Stock and the Class B
Stock.

         24. The Company agrees, subject to applicable law and the provisions
of this Paragraph 24, to (i)(a) file a post-effective amendment to the
registration statement that will be filed with the SEC to register the shares
of Class A Stock distributed by the Company in the Proposed Recapitalization or
the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal, as well as other shares of Class A
Stock held by the Shareholders (collectively, the "Subject Shares") within 15
days after the consummation of the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal to convert it to a shelf registration statement
covering resales of the Subject Shares, or (b) file a shelf registration
statement with the SEC covering resales of the Subject Shares within 30 days
after the consummation of the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal, (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek
prompt effectiveness of such registration statement, (iii) prepare and file
with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and
the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such
registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of the Subject
Shares thereunder, (iv) furnish to the Shareholders such number of conformed
copies of such registration statement and each amendment and supplement thereto
(including in each case all exhibits), and of a summary prospectus or other
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as the
Shareholders may reasonably request, (v) use its commercially reasonable
efforts to register or qualify the Subject Shares under securities or "blue
sky" laws of jurisdictions within the United States as the Shareholders shall
reasonably request, to keep such registration or qualification in effect for so
long as such registration statement remains in effect, and to take any other
action which may be reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to
consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Subject Shares under
such registration statement (provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do
business, subject itself to taxation in or to file a general consent to service
of process in any jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of
this Paragraph 24 be obligated to do so), and (vi) permit resales by the
Shareholders of the Subject Shares under such registration statement until the
earlier to occur of (a) one year from the date of consummation of the Proposed
Recapitalization plus the length of any Suspension Periods (as defined below)
and (b) the first date on which the Shareholders are permitted to sell or
transfer the Subject Shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, without
limitations on volume in any one sale or transfer; provided that if the Company
shall furnish to the Shareholders a certificate signed by its Chairman, Chief
Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer stating that (y) filing a
registration statement or maintaining effectiveness of a current registration
statement would have a material adverse effect on the Company or its
shareholders in relation to any material financing, acquisition or other
corporate transaction, and the Company has determined in good faith that such
disclosure is not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders or
(z) the Company has determined in good faith that the filing or maintaining
effectiveness of a current registration statement would require disclosure of
material information that the Company has a valid business purpose of retaining
as confidential, the Company shall be entitled to postpone filing or suspend
the use by the Shareholders for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess
of 45 consecutive calendar days (any period of such postponement or suspension,
a "Suspension Period"). The Company shall be entitled to exercise such
suspension right more than one time in any calendar year; provided that such
exercise shall not prevent the Shareholders from being entitled to at least 270
days of effective registration rights per year and that no Suspension Period
may commence if it is less than 30 days from the prior such Suspension Period.
The Shareholders agree to provide all information and materials and take all
such action as may be required in order to permit the Company to comply with
all applicable requirements of the SEC and to obtain any desired acceleration
of the effective date of such registration statement and shall be given a
reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the registration statement and
any amendments thereto before the filing thereof with the SEC, which shall be
not less than five business days in the case of the registration statement and
two business days in the case of any amendment. The Subject Shares of any
Shareholder who fails to provide such information or otherwise cooperate within
the foregoing time periods may be excluded by the Company from such
registration statement. The Company disclaims any liability for statements made
or incorporated by reference in such registration statement or prospectus based
on information and materials provided by or on behalf of the Shareholders
expressly for inclusion or incorporation by reference therein, provided that
all such statements in the registration statement, as filed with the SEC, are
reasonably satisfactory to the Shareholders.

         25. (a) Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 25(b) and 25(c), the
Company hereby agrees to reimburse the Shareholders and the GPA
Attorney-in-Fact (individually, a "Reimbursement Party" and, collectively, the
"Reimbursement Parties") for any and all out-of-pocket attorneys' fees and
their related expenses (collectively, the "Defense Costs") actually and
reasonably incurred by any of the Reimbursement Parties arising out of or
resulting from the defense of any third party allegation, claim, action, suit,
complaint, demand, litigation or legal or administrative proceeding, including
those brought derivatively on behalf of the Company alleging any wrongful
action or inaction by any Shareholder in his, her or its capacity as a
shareholder of the Company or any wrongful action or inaction by any of the
Reimbursement Parties taken in connection with any alleged wrongful action or
inaction by a Shareholder in his, her or its capacity as a shareholder of the
Company, in each case in connection with the authorization, execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement by any of the Shareholders (collectively, the
"Claims"); provided, that Defense Costs shall not include amounts paid (x) to
satisfy judgments or settlements relating to Claims or (y) in respect of CWK
Claim Coverage. For purposes of this Paragraph 25, "reimbursement" shall be
deemed to include direct payment by the Company of bills that are submitted by
the Reimbursement Parties in compliance with Paragraph 25(b).

             (b) The reimbursement obligation of the Company pursuant to
Paragraph 25(a) with respect to Defense Costs will be subject to the following
terms and conditions:

                 (i) the reimbursement of Defense Costs is conditioned on (A)
there having been no breach of this Agreement by any of the Reimbursement
Parties, (B) there not then existing a "QAT Disqualification" (as defined
below), (C) the Reimbursement Parties and their counsel not having claimed that
any provision of this Agreement is illegal or invalid for any reason, and
having reasonably cooperated with counsel to the Company or members of the
Board of Directors of the Company in the review and defense of any Claim, and
(D) there having been no determination by a court of competent jurisdiction
that any of the Reimbursement Parties has engaged in intentional misconduct or
has acted with gross negligence or in bad faith in connection with any matter
the subject of a Claim;

                 (ii) within ten business days of his, her or its receipt of
notice of such Claim, a Reimbursement Party must give the Company written
notice of any Claim asserted against such Reimbursement Party, directly or
indirectly, for which such Reimbursement Party expects to receive reimbursement
of Defense Costs under Paragraph 26(a), following which the Company may
determine at its election to undertake the defense thereof by representatives
of the Company's choosing which are reasonably satisfactory to the
Reimbursement Parties or permit the Reimbursement Parties to undertake the
defense thereof by representatives of their choosing which are reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, it being agreed that the Reimbursement Parties
shall be responsible for their own Defense Costs, except to the extent that the
Company has a reimbursement obligation as provided for under Paragraph 25(a),
and that a failure of a Reimbursement Party to give such notice shall not
result in a forfeiture of his, her or its reimbursement rights unless the
Company shall have been materially disadvantaged by such failure;

                 (iii) notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 25(b)(ii),
with respect to any Claim, the Reimbursement Parties will collectively have the
right, if the Company elects to undertake the defense, to employ one law firm
of their choice (in each applicable jurisdiction, if more than one jurisdiction
is involved) to represent the Reimbursement Parties if, in their collective
reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest between the Reimbursement Parties
and the Company exists in respect of such Claim, and in that event the Defense
Costs of such separate counsel shall be reimbursable by the Company pursuant to
and subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 25;

                 (iv) neither the Company nor any of the Reimbursement Parties
will, without the prior written consent of the other, settle or compromise any
Claim or consent to entry of any judgment relating to any such Claim if such
settlement or compromise will impose a liability or obligation on the other;
and

                 (v) the Company will reimburse the Defense Costs for which the
Reimbursement Parties are entitled to be reimbursed under Paragraph 25(a) only
after (A) the receipt by the Company of the related bill from counsel, together
with a reasonably detailed descriptions of hours worked and services provided
by counsel, (B) receipt by the Company of either evidence that the Defense
Costs to be reimbursed have actually been paid by the Reimbursement Parties
requesting reimbursement or written confirmation by the Reimbursement Parties
requesting reimbursement that such bill accurately represents an amount owed by
such Reimbursement Parties and (C) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
in Paragraph 25(b)(i).

             (c) Each of the Reimbursement Parties acknowledges and agrees that
the Company shall be entitled to rely upon the assurances of CWK and John C.
Yavis, Jr., acting jointly, as to their authority to act for and bind any other
Reimbursement Party for any action taken under this Paragraph 25.

             (d) A "QAT Disqualification" shall be deemed to commence from the
time at which a QAT Termination Notice shall have been delivered to the Company
and shall be deemed to continue (i) indefinitely in the event that the proposed
Qualifying Alternative Transaction specified in such QAT Termination Notice
shall be completed, (ii) until such time as the Shareholders shall have
confirmed to the Company in writing that such proposed Qualifying Alternative
Transaction shall have been abandoned or (iii) until such time as the Company
shall have publicly announced a Substitute Recapitalization Proposal.

             (e) Each of the Reimbursement Parties acknowledges and agrees
that, for so long as a QAT Disqualification shall remain in effect, he, she or
it will not seek or attempt to seek and hereby knowingly and irrevocably
releases and relinquishes any right he, she or it had, has or may in the future
have, directly or indirectly, for reimbursement, indemnification or
contribution of Defense Costs or liability from the Company, any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their respective directors or officers,
including, without limitation, from any third party or self insurance
arrangement or policy of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates,
with respect to Claims; provided, however, that the foregoing release and
relinquishment shall not deprive CWK of any right of indemnification,
reimbursement, or any other right under Connecticut law, the Company Charter or
the Company's By-Laws to the extent of the CWK Claim Coverage. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed to deprive any Shareholder of any right to
indemnification, reimbursement, or any other right or claim, in connection with
any litigation or other matter that does not arise from this Agreement, whether
such right or claim is against the Company or any other person, and whether
such right arises under contract, certificate of incorporation or by-laws,
statute, common law or otherwise.

Each of the Parties agrees, in advance, without prejudice to any rights to
judicial relief such other Party may otherwise have, to the granting of

which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and
shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been

law) without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties affected
thereby. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each
of the Parties and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors
and permitted assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision
hereof be enforced by, any other person. It is further understood and agreed
that no failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise
thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege. All rights, powers and remedies provided under
this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity
shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any thereof by any
Party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other right,
power or remedy by such Party.

         37. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Connecticut, without regard to the conflict of
laws principles thereof. Apart from proceedings before the Arbiter, all actions
and proceedings regarding the rights and obligations under this Agreement shall
be heard and determined in any Connecticut state or federal court sitting in
the City of Hartford.

              AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF
                               KAMAN CORPORATION

         The certificate of incorporation of Kaman Corporation, as amended to
this date, is further amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                                     FIRST

         The name of the corporation is Kaman Corporation (the "corporation").

                                    SECOND

         The principal office of the corporation is located in the Town of
Bloomfield in the State of Connecticut.

                                     THIRD

         The nature of the business to be transacted and the purpose to be
promoted or carried out by the corporation are to engage in any lawful
business, act or activity for which corporations may be formed under the
Connecticut Business Corporation Act, Chapter 601 of the Connecticut General
Statutes (as the same may be amended from time to time, the "CBCA").

                                    FOURTH

         The authorized capital stock of the corporation is as follows:


A. General Authorization.

      (1) Fifty Million (50,000,000) shares of Common Stock of the par value of
One Dollar ($1.00) per share, which, subject to any voting rights provided to
holders of Preferred Stock at any time outstanding, will be entitled to vote on
all matters with respect to which shareholders are entitled to vote under
applicable law, this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the
By-laws of the corporation, or upon which a vote of shareholders is otherwise
duly called for by the corporation. At each annual or special meeting of
shareholders, each holder of record of shares of Common Stock on the relevant
record date shall be entitled to cast one vote in person or by proxy for each
share of the Common Stock standing in such holder's name on the stock transfer
records of the corporation; and

      (2) Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares of Preferred Stock of the par
value of One Dollar ($1.00) per share. If so determined in accordance with
Paragraph B of this Article Fourth, such class shall be entitled to vote only
for the election of directors, with each share being entitled to one vote
thereon, and such voting right of such class to be limited to the election of
such number of directors (subject to the further limitations below) as may be
established by application of the following formula:

          (a) If the number of issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
is not more than one-fourth (1/4th) of the total number of authorized shares of
such class, such number as will result in the election by such shares of
one-tenth (1/10th) (to next lowest whole number) of the total number of
directors then fixed;

          (b) If the number of issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
is not more than one-half (1/2) of the total number of authorized shares of
such class, one-fifth (1/5th) (to the next lowest whole number) of the total
number of directors then fixed;

          (c) If the number of issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
is not more than three-fourths (3/4ths) of the total number of authorized
shares of such class, three-tenths (3/10ths) (to the next lowest whole number)
of the total number of directors then fixed;

          (d) If the number of issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
is more than three-fourths (3/4ths) of the total number of authorized shares of
such class, two-fifths (2/5ths) (to the next lowest whole number) of the total
number of directors then fixed;

provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i)
such voting right of such class shall be applicable only in the event that an
arrearage in payment of dividends shall exist with respect to any series of
Preferred Stock equal to six quarterly dividends on such series (or dividends
otherwise payable over a period of 18 months in the case of any series,
dividends on which are payable other than on a quarterly basis), (ii) any such
right to elect directors shall cease upon the payment in full of any such
arrearage or arrearages, and (iii) such voting right of such class, when
applicable, shall not under any circumstances entitle the Preferred Stock to
elect less than one (1) nor more than two (2) directors.

B. Preferred Stock.

      (1) The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to the limitations
prescribed by law and the provisions of this Paragraph B, to provide for the
issuance of a class of Preferred Stock in series and by amending this Amended
and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as it may be amended or supplemented
from time to time, by its own resolution solely, to establish the number of
shares to be included in each such series and to fix the designation, terms,
limitations, and relative rights and preferences of the shares of each such
series. The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each series
shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

          (a) The number of shares constituting that series and the distinctive
designation of that series;

          (b) The dividend rate on the shares of that series and the times of
payment thereof, whether dividends shall be cumulative and, if so, from which
date or dates;

          (c) Whether or not the shares of that series shall have conversion
privileges, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including
provision for adjustment of the conversion rate in such events as the Board of
Directors shall determine;

          (d) Whether or not the shares of that series shall be redeemable,
and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the date or
dates upon or after which they shall be redeemable, and sinking fund
provisions, if any, providing for the redemption or purchase of shares of that
series and the amount per share payable in case of redemption which amount may
vary under different conditions and at different redemption dates; and

          (e) Whether or not that series shall have voting rights, such voting
rights, if any, to be the voting rights described in subparagraph (2) of
Paragraph A of this Article Fourth.

      (2) Dividends on outstanding shares of the class of Preferred Stock shall
be declared and paid, or set apart for payment, before any dividends shall be
declared and paid, or set apart for payment, on shares of Common Stock with
respect to the same dividend period.

C. Recapitalization.

      (1) As provided for in the Agreement dated as of June 7, 2005, by and
among the corporation and various other parties (the "Recapitalization
Agreement"), upon the filing (the "Effective Time") of this Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation pursuant to the CBCA, each share of the
corporation's Class A common stock, par value $1.00 per share, issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "Old Class A Common
Stock") will become one share of validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable
Common Stock authorized by Paragraph A of this Article FOURTH without any
action by the holder thereof.

      (2) As provided for in the Recapitalization Agreement, upon the Effective
Time, (a) each share of the corporation's Class B common stock, par value $1.00
per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the
"Old Class B Common Stock"), other than the shares of Old Class B Common Stock
described in clause (b) below, shall be reclassified as and converted and
changed into 1.95 shares of validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable
Common Stock authorized by Paragraph A of this Article FOURTH and (b) each
share of Old Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time and held by record holder(s) who have validly elected to
accept the "Alternative Class B Stock Consideration" as to such shares of Old
Class B Common Stock in accordance with the Recapitalization Agreement, shall
be reclassified as and converted and changed into one share of validly issued,
fully paid, and non-assessable Common Stock authorized by Paragraph A of this
Article FOURTH and an amount in cash equal to $14.76, in each case without any
further action by the holder thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein, (x) in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock to which
any holder of Old Class B Common Stock would otherwise be entitled pursuant to
this Paragraph C (aggregating for this purpose all of the shares of Old Class B
Common Stock owned of record by such shareholder), such shareholder shall be
entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the closing price of the Old Class
A Common Stock on the NASDAQ National Market on the last trading day occurring
prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs multiplied by such
fraction, and (y) any cash payment to which any holder of Old Class B Common
Stock would otherwise be entitled pursuant to this Paragraph C (aggregating for
this purpose all of the shares of Old Class B Common Stock owned of record by
such shareholder) shall be rounded down to the nearest cent.

      (3) Each certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented a share
or shares of Old Class A Common Stock shall thereafter represent that number of
shares of Common Stock which the share or shares of Old Class A Common Stock
represented by such certificate shall have become in accordance with this
Paragraph C, until such certificate is presented to the corporation or its
transfer agent for transfer or reissue in which event the corporation or its
transfer agent shall issue one or more stock certificates representing the
appropriate number of shares of Common Stock. Each certificate that prior to
the Effective Time represented a share or shares of Old Class B Common Stock
shall thereafter represent that number of shares of Common Stock into which the
share or shares of Old Class B Common Stock represented by such certificate
shall have been reclassified and converted in accordance with this Paragraph C.
Any required cash payment under this Paragraph C as to any shares of Old Class
B Common Stock will only be made following presentation to the corporation or
its transfer agent of all the certificates held of record by the owner of such
shares of Old Class B Common Stock.

D. No Preemptive Rights.

         There shall be no preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any
unissued stock of the corporation. No stockholder shall be entitled as of right
to purchase or subscribe for any unissued stock of the corporation, whether now
or hereafter authorized or whether of a class now existing or of a class
hereafter created, or to purchase or subscribe for any bonds, certificates of
indebtedness, debentures or other obligations convertible into stock of the
corporation.

                                     FIFTH

         The amount of paid-in capital stock with which the corporation
commenced business was Seven Thousand Dollars ($7,000).

                                     SIXTH

         The duration of this corporation is unlimited.

                                    SEVENTH

         The following provisions are for the regulation of the business of the
corporation and for the purpose of defining and regulating the powers of the
corporation and its officers, directors and shareholders:

A. Issuance of Authorized Capital Stock.

         The Board of Directors is hereby authorized and empowered to issue
from time to time all or any part of the shares of the unissued authorized
capital stock of the corporation, as then constituted, for such consideration,
not less than par, as is permissible under the CBCA, and, upon receipt of such
consideration by the corporation, all shares of the capital stock of this
corporation so issued shall be deemed fully paid and nonassessable and the
holders of such shares shall not be liable thereunder to this corporation or
its creditors.

B. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Each director and officer of the corporation shall be indemnified by
the corporation against Liabilities, as defined in Section 33-770 of the CBCA,
incurred by him or her in connection with any Proceeding, as defined in Section
33-770 of the CBCA, to which he or she may be made a party by reason of being
or having been a director or officer of the corporation to the fullest extent
permitted by the CBCA. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be
exclusive of other rights to which he or she may be entitled.

C. Limitation of Personal Liability.

         The personal liability of a director to the corporation or its
shareholders for monetary damages for breach of duty as a director shall be
limited to an amount equal to the amount of compensation received by the
director for serving the corporation during the calendar year in which the
violation occurred (and if the director received no such compensation from the
corporation during the calendar year of the violation, such director shall have
no liability to the corporation or its shareholders for breach of duty) if such
breach did not:

         (1) involve a knowing and culpable violation of law by the director;

         (2) enable the director or an associate, as defined in Section 33-840
of the CBCA, to receive an improper personal economic gain;

         (3) show a lack of good faith and a conscious disregard for the duty of
the director to the corporation under circumstances in which the director was
aware that his or her conduct or omission created an unjustifiable risk of
serious injury to the corporation;

         (4) constitute a sustained and unexcused pattern of inattention that
amounted to an abdication of the director's duty to the corporation; or

         (5) create liability under Section 33-757 of the CBCA.

         Any repeal or modification of this Paragraph C shall not adversely
affect any right or protection of a director of the corporation existing at the
time of such repeal or modification.

         Nothing contained in this Paragraph C shall be construed to deny to
the directors of the corporation any of the benefits provided by subsection (d)
of Section 33-756 of the CBCA.

D. Board of Directors.

         (1) Number. Subject to the rights of any holder of any class or series
of Preferred Stock, the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than three
or more than 15 members, the exact number of which shall be fixed from time to
time by the Board of Directors.

         (2) Classes. The directors shall be divided into three classes,
designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly
as may be possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting
the entire Board of Directors. The initial division of the Board of Directors
into classes shall be made by the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire
Board of Directors. The term of the initial Class I directors shall terminate
on the date of the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders; the term of the initial
Class II directors shall terminate on the date of the 2007 annual meeting of
shareholders; and the term of the initial Class III directors shall terminate
on the date of the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders. At each succeeding
annual meeting of shareholders beginning in 2006, successors to the class of
directors whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a
three-year term. If the number of directors is changed, any increase or
decrease shall be apportioned by the affirmative vote of a majority of the
entire Board of Directors among the classes so as to maintain the number of
directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional
director of any class elected by the shareholders at an annual meeting of
shareholders to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class shall
hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that
class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the
term of any incumbent director.

         (3) Term. A director shall hold office until the annual meeting for the
year in which such director's term expires and until such director's successor
shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to prior death,
resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office.

         (4) Vacancies. Any vacancy on the Board of Directors, however
resulting, may be filled by the shareholders, or by a majority of the directors
then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director,
provided, that the term of a director elected by the directors or the sole
remaining director expires at the next meeting of shareholders at which
directors are elected.

         (5) Removal. Any director may be removed from office but only for cause
and only if the number of votes cast by holders of shares entitled to vote for
the election of directors in favor of the removal of such director exceeds the
number of votes cast by such shareholders against the removal of such director
and only at a meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of such removal,
the notice for which states that the purpose or one of the purposes of the
meeting is the removal of such director.

         (6) Preferred Stock Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever
the holders of any one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock shall have
the right, voting separately by class or series, to elect one or more directors
at an annual or special meeting of shareholders, the election, terms of office,
filling of vacancies, removal of directors and other features of the
directorships shall be governed by the terms of this Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation or in any resolution or resolutions adopted by the
Board of Directors providing for the issuance of any class or series of
Preferred Stock, and such directors so elected shall not be divided into
classes pursuant to this Article SEVENTH unless expressly provided by such
terms.

                                     EIGHTH

         In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by
statute, a majority of the entire Board of Directors is expressly authorized to
adopt, repeal, alter, amend or rescind the By-laws of the corporation. As used
in this Article EIGHTH, the term "entire Board of Directors" means the total
number of directors which the corporation would have, as fixed by the Board of
Directors under Paragraph D of Article SEVENTH of this Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, if there were no vacancies. In addition, the
By-laws of the corporation may be amended, altered, repealed, or rescinded by
the affirmative vote of the holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66
2/3%) of all capital stock of the corporation which by its terms may be voted
on all matters submitted to shareholders of the corporation generally, voting
together as a single class at a duly called meeting of the shareholders of the
corporation.

                                     NINTH

         Notwithstanding anything contained in this Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of all capital
stock of the corporation which by its terms may be voted on all matters
submitted to shareholders of the corporation generally, voting together as a
single class at a duly called meeting of the shareholders of the corporation,
shall be required to amend, alter, repeal, rescind or adopt any provision
inconsistent with Articles SEVENTH and EIGHTH of this Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation and this Article NINTH.




                                                                    Exhibit A-2
                                                                    -----------


                               KAMAN CORPORATION
                          AMENDED AND RESTATED BY-LAWS

                                   ARTICLE I
                                    Offices

     1. The principal office of this corporation shall be at such place in the
Town of Bloomfield in the State of Connecticut as the Board of Directors of the
corporation (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") shall from time to time
designate. The corporation may have such other offices within or without the
State of Connecticut as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine.

                                  ARTICLE II
                            Meetings of Stockholders

     1. PLACE OF MEETINGS. All meetings of the stockholders shall be held at
the principal office or place of business of the corporation, or at such place
within or without the State of Connecticut as from time to time may be
designated by resolution of the Board of Directors.

     2. ANNUAL MEETINGS. The annual meetings of the stockholders shall be held
on such day, other than a legal holiday, in the month of March or April of each
year and at such time and place as may be designated by the Board of Directors.
The purpose of such meeting shall be the election of directors by ballot and
the transaction of such other business as may properly come before such
meeting. If the annual meeting of the stockholders be not held as herein
prescribed, the election of directors may be held at any meeting thereafter
called pursuant to these by-laws or otherwise lawfully held.

     3. NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING. A notice setting out the day, hour and place
of such annual meeting shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to each stockholder of
record at the stockholder's address as the same appears on the stock transfer
and registration records of the corporation or its agent, or if no such address
appears, at the stockholder's last known address, not less than ten (10) days
nor more than sixty (60) days before such annual meeting. Such notice shall
also state any proposed amendment or repeal of these by-laws and any other
proposed matter other than the election of directors which, under the
Connecticut Business Corporation Act ("CBCA"), expressly requires the vote of
stockholders.

     4. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the stockholders may be called at
any time by the President or by majority vote of the Board of Directors. A
special meeting of the stockholders shall be called by the President upon the
written request of one (l) or more stockholders holding in the aggregate at
least thirty-five percent (35%) of the total number of shares entitled to vote
on any issue proposed to be considered at such meeting upon their delivery to
the Secretary of one (l) or more written demands for the special meeting
describing the purpose or purposes for which it is to be held. The Secretary
shall mail a notice of such meeting to each stockholder of record not less than
ten (10) days nor more than sixty (60) days before such meeting, and such
notice shall state the day, hour and place of such meeting and the purpose
thereof.

5. ADJOURNMENT OF STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING. If an annual or special stockholders'
meeting is adjourned to a different date, time or place, notice need not be
given of the new date, time or place if the new date, time or place is
announced at the meeting before adjournment. If a new record date for the
adjourned meeting is or must be fixed under Section 33-701 of the CBCA,
however, notice of the adjourned meeting must be given under these by-laws to
persons who are stockholders as of the new record date.

     6. WAIVER OF NOTICE. (a) A stockholder may waive any notice required by
the CBCA, the certificate of incorporation of the corporation (the "Certificate
of Incorporation") or these by-laws before or after the date and time stated in
the notice. The waiver must be in writing, be signed by the stockholder
entitled to notice and be delivered to the corporation for inclusion in the
minutes or filing with the corporate records.

     (b) A stockholder's attendance at a meeting: (1) waives objection to lack
of notice or defective notice of the meeting, unless the stockholder at the
beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or transacting business
at the meeting; and (2) waives objection to consideration of a particular
matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in
the meeting notice, unless the stockholder objects to considering the matter
when it is presented.

     7. STOCKHOLDER ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. (a) Any action which, under the
provisions of the CBCA, may be taken at a meeting of stockholders may be taken
without a meeting by one or more consents in writing, setting forth the action
so taken or to be taken, bearing the date of signature and signed by all of the
persons who would be entitled to vote upon such action at a meeting, or by
their duly authorized attorneys. The Secretary shall file such consent or
consents, or certify the tabulation of such consents and file such certificate,
with the minutes of the meetings of the stockholders. Any consent or consents
that become effective as provided herein shall have the same force and effect
as a vote of stockholders at a meeting duly held.

     (b) If not otherwise fixed under Section 33-697 of the CBCA or in
accordance with Section 12 of this Article II, the record date for determining
stockholders entitled to take action without a meeting is the date the first
stockholder signs the consent under subsection (a) of this section. No written
consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein
unless, within sixty days of the earliest date appearing on a consent delivered
to the corporation in the manner required by this section, written consents
signed by all other stockholders entitled to vote on the matter are received by
the corporation. A written consent may be revoked by a writing to that effect,
provided such revocation shall not be effective if it is received by the
corporation after the corporation has received a sufficient number of unrevoked
written consents to take such corporate action from all other stockholders
entitled to vote on such action.

     8. QUORUM. Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take
action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with
respect to that matter. Unless the CBCA or the Certificate of Incorporation
otherwise provides, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter by
a voting group constitutes a quorum of that voting group for action on that
matter. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting, it is deemed
present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and for any
adjournment of that meeting, unless a new record date is or must be set for
that adjourned meeting.

     9. PROXIES. (a) A stockholder may vote each stockholder's shares in person
or by proxy.

     (b) A stockholder may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise act for such
stockholder by signing an appointment form, either personally or by such
stockholder's attorney-in-fact.

     (c) An appointment of a proxy is effective when received by the Secretary
or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes. A photographic or
similar reproduction of an appointment, or a telegram, cablegram, facsimile
transmission, wireless or similar transmission of an appointment, received by
such person shall be sufficient to effect such appointment. An appointment is
valid for eleven (11) months unless a longer period is expressly provided in
the appointment form.

     (d) An appointment of a proxy is revocable by the stockholder unless the
appointment form conspicuously states that it is irrevocable and the
appointment is coupled with an interest. Appointments coupled with an interest
include the appointment of (i) a pledgee; (ii) a person who purchased or agreed
to purchase the shares; (iii) a creditor of the corporation who extended it
credit under the terms requiring the appointment; (iv) an employee of the
corporation whose employment contract requires the appointment; or (v) a party
to a voting agreement created under Section 33-716 of the CBCA.

     (e) The death or incapacity of the stockholder appointing a proxy does not
affect the right of the corporation to accept the proxy's authority unless
notice of the death or incapacity is received by the Secretary or other office
or agent authorized to tabulate votes before the proxy exercises authority
under the appointment.

     (f) An appointment made irrevocable under subsection (d) of this Section 9
is revoked when the interest with which it is coupled is extinguished.

     (g) A transferee for value of shares subject to an irrevocable appointment
may revoke the appointment if such transferee did not know of its existence
when such transferee acquired the shares and the existence of the irrevocable
appointment was not noted conspicuously on the certificate representing the
shares or on the information statement for shares without certificates. The
Secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes may require
such transferee to represent such transferee's lack of knowledge of such
irrevocable appointment and may rely on such representation.

         (h) Subject to Section 33-708 of the CBCA and to any express
limitation on the proxy's authority appearing on the face of the appointment
form, the corporation is entitled to accept the proxy's vote or other action as
that of the stockholder making the appointment.

     10. NUMBER OF VOTES OF EACH STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise provided in
the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder, whether represented in
person or by proxy, shall be entitled to one (l) vote for each share of stock
standing in such stockholder's name on the books of the corporation on the
record date.

     11. VOTING. In the election of directors and in voting on any question on
which a vote by ballot is required by law or is demanded by any stockholder,
the voting shall be by ballot; on all other questions it may be viva voce.

     12. RECORD DATE. For the purpose of determining which stockholders are
entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of the stockholders or any
adjournment thereof, or which stockholders are entitled to receive payment of
any dividend or for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors, and in
the absence of its action the Secretary of the corporation or any other person
lawfully acting, shall set a record date which shall not be any earlier than
the date on which the Board of Directors, the Secretary or such other
authorized party acts to set such record date and no more than seventy (70) nor
less than ten (10) days before the particular event requiring such
determination of stockholders is to occur.

     13. ADVANCE NOTIFICATION OF BUSINESS TO BE TRANSACTED AT MEETINGS OF
STOCKHOLDERS. To be properly brought before the annual or any special meeting
of the stockholders, business must be either (a) specified in the notice of
meeting (or any supplement or amendment thereto) given by or at the direction
of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof), (b)
otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the
Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof), or (c) solely in
the case of the annual meeting, otherwise properly brought before the meeting
by any stockholder of the corporation (i) who is a stockholder of record on the
date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 13 and on the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to
vote at an annual meeting and (ii) who complies with the advance notice
procedures set forth in this Section 13.

         In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be
properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, such stockholder
must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary
of the corporation.

         To be timely, a stockholder's written notice to the Secretary of the
corporation must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal
executive offices of the corporation not less than seventy-five (75) days nor
more than ninety (90) days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the
immediately preceding year's annual meeting of the stockholders; provided,
however, that if the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than thirty
(30) days prior to or delayed by more than thirty (30) days after the
anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, to be timely, notice by the
stockholder must be so received not later than the close of business on the
tenth (10th) day following the day on which notice of the date of the annual
meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting is
first given or made (which for this purpose shall include any and all filings

the meeting to bring such business before the meeting.

         Notwithstanding anything in these by-laws to the contrary, no business
shall be conducted at the annual or any special meeting of the stockholders
except business brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures
set forth in this Section 13; provided, however, that, once business has been
properly brought before the meeting in accordance with such procedures, nothing
in this Section 13 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of
any such business. The officer of the corporation presiding at the meeting
shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that the
business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 13, and if such officer shall so determine, such
officer shall so declare to the meeting that any such business not properly
brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

     14. ADVANCE NOTIFICATION OF NOMINATION OF DIRECTORS. Only persons who
are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for
election as directors of the corporation, except as may be otherwise provided
in the Certificate of Incorporation with respect to the rights, if any, of the
holders of shares of preferred stock of the corporation to nominate and elect a
specified number of directors in certain circumstances.

         In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to

notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the corporation.

         To be timely, a stockholder's written notice to the Secretary of the
corporation must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal
executive offices of the corporation, in the case of: (x) an annual meeting,
not less than seventy-five (75) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to

meeting of the stockholders; provided, however, that if the date of the annual
meeting is advanced more than thirty (30) days prior to or delayed by more than
thirty (30) days after the anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting,
to be timely, notice by the stockholder must be so received not later than the
close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which notice of
the date of the annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of

         To be in proper written form, a stockholder's notice to the Secretary
of the corporation must set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder
proposes to nominate for election as a director (i) the name, age, business
address and residence address of the person, (ii) the principal occupation or
employment of the person, (iii) the class or series and number of shares of
capital stock of the corporation which are owned beneficially or of record by
the person, if any, and (iv) any other information relating to the person that
would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings
required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of
directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice (i) the name and
record address of such stockholder proposing such nomination, (ii) the class or

notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to
being named or referred to as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected.
The corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other
information (which may include meetings to discuss the furnished information)
as may reasonably be required by the corporation to determine the eligibility
of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the corporation.

         No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the
corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in
this Section 14. The officer of the corporation presiding at the meeting shall,
if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that the nomination
was not made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14, and if such
officer shall also determine, such officer shall so declare to the meeting that
any such defective nomination shall be disregarded.

(the "Durable Power of Attorney") hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent
permitted by the Connecticut Business Corporation Act) appoints Eileen S. Kraus
and Walter H. Monteith, Jr., and each of them (collectively, the "Proxies"), as
his or her sole and exclusive proxies, with full power of substitution and

Kaman on the books and records of the Company over which the DPA

Attorney, and any additional shares of Class B Stock that the Durable Power of
Attorney may thereafter govern (collectively, the "Shares"). Upon execution and
delivery of this Irrevocable Proxy by each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact, any
and all prior proxies given by the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact with respect to any
Shares are hereby revoked and each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact agrees not to
grant any subsequent proxies with respect to the Shares until after the
Expiration Date that are inconsistent with the purpose and intent of this
Irrevocable Proxy, as set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the fourth
Paragraph hereof.

         This Irrevocable Proxy is irrevocable (to the fullest extent provided
in the Connecticut Business Corporation Act), is coupled with an interest,
which each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact hereby acknowledges, and is granted in
consideration of each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact, the Company and others
entering into the Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2005 (the "Agreement").
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Irrevocable Proxy shall have the
meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement.

         This Irrevocable Proxy shall become effective promptly upon the
occurrence of the end of the Permitted Termination Period and terminate on the

         The Proxies named above are hereby authorized and empowered by each of
the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact, at any time and from time to time on or prior to the
Expiration Date, to act as the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact's proxy to vote the
Shares, and to exercise all voting rights of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact with
respect to the Shares (including, without limitation, the power to execute and
deliver written consents pursuant to the Connecticut Business Corporation Act
and to be counted in determining whether a quorum is present at any meeting of
the shareholders of the Company), at any annual, special or adjourned meeting
of the shareholders of the Company for the purpose of (i) approving whichever
of the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal is
then recommended by the Board in accordance with the Agreement and all other
actions required in furtherance thereof, (ii) approving the Proposed Charter
Governance Amendments and all other actions required in furtherance thereof and
(iii) disapproving or rejecting any proposal that (a) is inconsistent with or
contrary to the terms and conditions of whichever of the Proposed
Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal is then
recommended by the Board in accordance with the Agreement, the Proposed Charter
Governance Amendments or the Proposed Bylaw Governance Amendments or (b) would
result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other
obligation or agreement of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact or any other Party
contained in the Agreement.

         All authority herein conferred shall survive the death or incapacity
of any of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact and any obligation of any of the DPA
Attorneys-in-Fact hereunder shall be binding upon his or her heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns.

         This Irrevocable Proxy shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut, without regard to the
conflict of laws principles thereof. All actions and proceedings regarding the
rights and obligations under this Irrevocable Proxy shall be heard and
determined in any Connecticut state or federal court sitting in the City of
Hartford.

         Each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact acknowledges and agrees that
performance of his or her respective obligations hereunder will confer a unique
benefit on the Company and that a failure of performance will not be
compensable by money damages. Each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact agrees that
this Irrevocable Proxy shall be specifically enforceable and that specific
enforcement and injunctive relief shall be available to the Company for any
breach of any agreement, covenant or representation hereunder. This Irrevocable
Proxy may not be amended, restated or modified or any provision hereof waived
without the written consent of the Company.

         Each of the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact shall, upon request, execute and
deliver any additional documents or instruments and take such actions as may
reasonably be deemed by the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete
the Irrevocable Proxy granted herein or to carry out the provisions hereof.

         If any term, provision, covenant, or restriction of this Irrevocable
Proxy is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or
unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and
restrictions of this Irrevocable Proxy shall remain in full force and effect
and shall not in any way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

         This Irrevocable Proxy may be executed in counterparts and signature
pages exchanged by facsimile, and each counterpart shall be deemed to be an
original, but all counterparts of which shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Irrevocable Proxy, each of
the DPA Attorneys-in-Fact is executing and delivering this Irrevocable Proxy in
his or her capacity as a fiduciary of Kaman and not in his or her capacity as a
director or officer of the Company, and nothing herein shall require any such
person to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries in a manner contrary to the proper discharge of his or
her fiduciary duties to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Irrevocable Proxy is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and

                               KAMAN CORPORATION

                  Roberta C. Kaman ("RCK") hereby irrevocably (to the fullest
extent permitted by the Connecticut Business Corporation Act) appoints Eileen
S. Kraus and Walter H. Monteith, Jr., and each of them (collectively, the
"Proxies"), as her sole and exclusive proxies, with full power of substitution
and resubstitution, to vote and exercise all voting rights (to the fullest
extent that RCK is entitled to do so) with respect to (i) the 23,132 shares of
Class A Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Class A Stock"), of Kaman
Corporation (the "Company"), evidenced by the certificate numbers set forth on
Annex A-1, registered in the name of RCK on the books and records of the
Company and over which RCK has sole voting power, (ii) the 1,471 shares of
Class B Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Class B Stock") of the
Company evidenced by the certificate numbers set forth on Annex A-2, registered
in the name of RCK on the books and records of the Company and over which RCK
has sole voting power, and (iii) any additional shares of Class A Stock or
Class B Stock for which RCK may hereafter acquire the right to vote
(collectively, the "Shares"). Upon execution and delivery of this Irrevocable
Proxy by RCK, any and all prior proxies given by RCK with respect to any Shares
are hereby revoked and RCK agrees not to grant any subsequent proxies with
respect to the Shares until after the Expiration Date that are inconsistent
with the purpose and intent of this Irrevocable Proxy, as set forth in clauses
(i), (ii) and (iii) of the fourth Paragraph hereof.

                  This Irrevocable Proxy is irrevocable (to the fullest extent
provided in the Connecticut Business Corporation Act), is coupled with an
interest, which RCK hereby acknowledges, and is granted in consideration of
RCK, the Company and others entering into the Agreement, dated as of June 7,
2005 (the "Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this
Irrevocable Proxy shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement.

                  This Irrevocable Proxy shall become effective promptly upon
the occurrence of the end of the Permitted Termination Period and terminate on
the Expiration Date.

                  The Proxies named above are hereby authorized and empowered
by RCK, at any time and from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date,
to act as RCK's proxy to vote the Shares, and to exercise all voting rights of
RCK with respect to the Shares (including, without limitation, the power to
execute and deliver written consents pursuant to the Connecticut Business
Corporation Act and to be counted in determining whether a quorum is present at
any meeting of the shareholders of the Company), at any annual, special or
adjourned meeting of the shareholders of the Company for the purpose of (i)
approving whichever of the Proposed Recapitalization or the Substitute
Recapitalization Proposal is then recommended by the Board in accordance with
the Agreement and all other actions required in furtherance thereof, (ii) as to
all of the Shares that are Class B Stock, approving the Proposed Charter
Governance Amendments and all other actions required in furtherance thereof and
(iii) disapproving or rejecting any proposal that (a) is inconsistent with or
contrary to the terms and conditions of whichever of the Proposed
Recapitalization or the Substitute Recapitalization Proposal is then
recommended by the Board in accordance with the Agreement, the Proposed Charter
Governance Amendments or the Proposed Bylaw Governance Amendments or (b) would
result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other
obligation or agreement of RCK or any other Party contained in the Agreement.

                  All authority herein conferred shall survive the death or
incapacity of RCK and any obligation of RCK hereunder shall be binding upon her
heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

                  This Irrevocable Proxy shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut, without regard to the
conflict of laws principles thereof. All actions and proceedings regarding the
rights and obligations under this Irrevocable Proxy shall be heard and
determined in any Connecticut state or federal court sitting in the City of
Hartford.

                  RCK acknowledges and agrees that performance of her
obligations hereunder will confer a unique benefit on the Company and that a
failure of performance will not be compensable by money damages. RCK agrees
that this Irrevocable Proxy shall be specifically enforceable and that specific
enforcement and injunctive relief shall be available to the Company for any
breach of any agreement, covenant or representation hereunder. This Irrevocable
Proxy may not be amended, restated or modified or any provision hereof waived
without the written consent of the Company.

                  RCK shall, upon request, execute and deliver any additional
documents or instruments and take such actions as may reasonably be deemed by
the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete the Irrevocable Proxy
granted herein or to carry out the provisions hereof.

                  If any term, provision, covenant, or restriction of this
Irrevocable Proxy is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and
restrictions of this Irrevocable Proxy shall remain in full force and effect
and shall not in any way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

                  This Irrevocable Proxy may be executed in counterparts and
signature pages exchanged by facsimile, and each counterpart shall be deemed to
be an original, but all counterparts of which shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

enforcement and injunctive relief shall be available to the Company for any
breach of any agreement, covenant or representation hereunder. This Irrevocable
Proxy may not be amended, restated or modified or any provision hereof waived
without the written consent of the Company.

                  CHK shall, upon request, execute and deliver any additional
documents or instruments and take such actions as may reasonably be deemed by
the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete the Irrevocable Proxy
granted herein or to carry out the provisions hereof.

                  If any term, provision, covenant, or restriction of this
Irrevocable Proxy is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and
restrictions of this Irrevocable Proxy shall remain in full force and effect
and shall not in any way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

                  This Irrevocable Proxy may be executed in counterparts and
signature pages exchanged by facsimile, and each counterpart shall be deemed to
be an original, but all counterparts of which shall constitute one and the same
agreement.
