Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) (1) On October 1, 2007, the reporting person and Teledyne Technologies Incorporated agreed to amend non-employee director stock options granted to the reporting person in 2005 in lieu of cash retainer fees and meeting fees to increase the per share exercise price of those stock options to an amount equal to the fair market value of a share of common stock of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated on the date of grant for each option. The exercise prices of the original option grants in 2005 were determined by a formula that was based on the fair market value of common stock of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated on the date of grant and then adjusted to account for a prepayment of the exercise price equal to the amount of retainer fees and/or meeting fees foregone. The purpose of the amendment is to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. (Continued in footnote 2)
(2) The amendment of each stock option is reported in this Form 4 as a cancellation of the original option and the grant of a replacement option. In connection with the amendment, the reporting person will become entitled to receive, on January 2, 2008, a payment of $40,600.00, which payment the reporting person has elected to receive in the form of phantom stock pursuant to the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. All the stock options reported herein are fully vested.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
