PROXY STATEMENT
FOR 2005 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
VOTING PROCEDURES
Who May Vote
      If you were a stockholder on the books of the Company at the close of business on March 7, 2005 you may vote at the Annual Meeting. On that day, there were 33,433,734 shares of our Common Stock outstanding.
      Each share is entitled to one vote. In order to vote, you must either designate a proxy to vote on your behalf or attend the meeting and vote your shares in person. The Board of Directors requests your proxy so that your shares will count toward determination of the presence of a quorum and your shares can be voted at the meeting.
Methods of Voting
      All stockholders of record may vote by transmitting their proxy cards by mail. Stockholders of record can also vote by telephone or Internet. Stockholders who hold their shares through a bank or broker can vote by telephone or Internet if their bank or broker offers those options.
  •  By Mail. Stockholders of record may complete, sign, date and return their proxy cards in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you want to vote, your proxy will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors.
 
  •  By Telephone or Internet. Stockholders of record may vote by using the toll-free number or Internet website address listed on the proxy card. Please see your proxy card for specific instructions.
Revoking Your Proxy
      You may change your mind and revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the meeting by:
  •  sending a written notice to the Secretary of the Company for receipt prior to the meeting that you revoke your proxy;
 
  •  transmitting a proxy dated later than your prior proxy either by mail, telephone or Internet; or
 
  •  attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person or by proxy (except for shares held in the employee plan).
Voting By Employee Benefit Plan Participants
      Participants who hold Common Stock in the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan may tell the plan trustee how to vote the shares of Common Stock allocated to their accounts. You may either (1) sign and return the voting instruction card provided by the plan or (2) transmit your instructions by telephone or Internet. If you do not

Table of Contents

transmit instructions by 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time), on April 22, 2005, your shares will not be voted by the plan trustee, except as otherwise required by law.
Voting Shares Held By Brokers, Banks and Other Nominees
      If you hold your shares in a broker, bank or other nominee account, you are a “beneficial owner” of Teledyne Common Stock. In order to vote your shares, you must give voting instructions to your bank, broker or other intermediary who is the “nominee holder” of your shares. The Company asks brokers, banks and other nominee holders to obtain voting instructions from the beneficial owners of shares that are registered in the nominee’s name. Proxies that are transmitted by nominee holders on behalf of beneficial owners will count toward a quorum and, except as otherwise provided below, will be voted as instructed by the nominee holder.
Confidential Voting Policy
      The Company maintains a policy of keeping stockholder votes confidential.
BOARD COMPOSITION AND PRACTICES
Information and Meetings
      The Board of Directors directs the management of the business and affairs of the Company as provided in the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company and pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware. Except for Dr. Robert Mehrabian, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, the Board is not involved in day-to-day operations. Members of the Board keep informed about the Company’s business through discussions with the senior management and other officers and managers of the Company and its subsidiaries, by reviewing analyses and reports sent to them, and by participating in Board and committee meetings.
      The Company encourages, but does not require, that all its directors attend all meetings of the Board of Directors, all committee meetings on which the directors serve and the annual stockholders meeting. In 2004, the Board of Directors held seven meetings and acted five times by unanimous written consent. During 2004, all directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and the Board committees of which they were members. All of the then serving current directors attended the 2004 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Number of Directors
      The Board of Directors determines the number of directors, which under our Amended and Restated By-laws must consist of not less than four members and not more than 10 members. The Board has currently fixed the number at nine members, which number was so fixed in connection with the appointment of Simon M. Lorne to the Board on July 27, 2004.

Table of Contents

Director Terms
      The directors are divided into three classes and the directors in each class serve for a three-year term. The term of one class of directors expires each year at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board may fill a vacancy by electing a new director to the same class as the director being replaced. The Board may also create a new director position in any class and elect a director to hold the newly created position until the term of the class expires.
Directors’ Retirement Policy
      On June 1, 2000, the Company adopted a retirement policy for directors. This policy, as amended, generally requires directors to retire at the Annual Meeting following their 75th birthday. This policy also requires a director to offer to tender his or her resignation if such director has a change in professional status.
Executive Sessions
      The non-management directors of the Company meet in executive session without management on a regularly scheduled basis. The Board has not formally designated a lead director. Committee chairs rotate as presiding director in such sessions.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Director Independence
      In April 2004, our Nominating and Governance Committee assessed, and our Board of Directors determined, the independence of each director in accordance with the then existing rules of the New York Stock Exchange. After considering such items, including various relationship categories and individual circumstances, the Nominating and Governance Committee, followed by the Board, determined that each member of our Board of Directors did not have any material relationships with the Company and was thus independent, with the exception of Dr. Mehrabian, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. The relationships considered included: whether the director is a Teledyne employee, amount of Teledyne stock ownership and commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting or auditing, charitable and familial relationships. The Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board also considered the Company’s relationship and the relationship of the director to ATI, from which we were spun-off in November 1999. See “Certain Transactions” at page 41. Our Nominating and Governance Committee and our Board also considered the same items when it appointed Simon M. Lorne to the Board in July 2004. In January 2005, the Company circulated questionnaires to confirm the independence of its non-management directors. In conclusion, after due consideration, our Board has determined that eight of our nine current directors are independent directors. The independent directors by name are: Robert P. Bozzone, Frank V. Cahouet, Diane C. Creel, Charles Crocker, Simon M. Lorne, Paul D. Miller, Charles J. Queenan, Jr., and Michael T. Smith.
      The Nominating and Governance Committee, followed by the Board, also determined that each member of our Personnel and Compensation Committee is an “outside director” within the meaning of Rule 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
      All of the Board’s standing committees consist only of independent directors.

Corporate Governance and Ethics Guidelines
      At the time we first became a public company in 1999, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted many “best practices” in the area of corporate governance, including separate standing committees of the Board for each of audit, nominating and governance and executive compensation matters, charters for each of the committees, and corporate ethics and compliance guidelines. Our ethics and compliance guidelines are published as the Corporate Objectives and Guidelines for Employee Conduct (the “Employee Guidelines”). This code of ethics applies to all our employees, including our principal executive, financial and accounting officers. Our employees receive periodic ethics training and follow-up questionnaires are distributed annually to various personnel in an effort to ensure compliance with these guidelines. It is the Company’s policy not to waive compliance with these guidelines. The Company also has a specialized code of ethics for financial executives that supplements the Employee Guidelines (the “Financial Executives Code”). In addition, we have ethics and compliance guidelines for our service providers.
      Our Board of Directors has adopted the Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Governance Guidelines”). These Governance Guidelines were initially developed by our Nominating and Governance Committee and are reviewed at least annually by such Committee. These Governance Guidelines incorporate practices and policies under which our Board has operated since its inception, in addition to many of the concepts required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the New York Stock Exchange. Some of the principal subjects covered by the Governance Guidelines include:
  •  Director qualification standards.
 
  •  Director responsibilities.
 
  •  Director access to management and independent advisors.
 
  •  Director compensation.
 
  •  Director orientation and continuing education.
 
  •  Management succession.
 
  •  Annual performance evaluation of the Board and Committees.
      Copies of our Governance Guidelines, our Corporate Objectives and Guidelines for Employee Conduct and our committee charters are available on our website at www.teledyne.com. If at any time you would like to receive a paper copy, free-of-charge, please write to John T. Kuelbs, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, 12333 West Olympic Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90064-1021.
Sarbanes-Oxley Disclosure Committee
      In September 2002, the Company formally constituted the Sarbanes-Oxley Disclosure Committee. Current members include: John T. Kuelbs, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary; Dale A. Schnittjer, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Susan L. Main, Vice President and Controller; Ivars R. Blukis, Chief Business Risk Assurance Officer; Robyn E. McGowan, Vice President, Administration and Human Resources and Assistant Secretary; Melanie S. Cibik, Vice President, Associate General Counsel and Assistant Secretary; Shelley D. Green, Treasurer; Brian A. Levan, Director of

External Financial Reporting and Assistant Controller; and Jason VanWees, Director of Corporate Development and Investor Relations. Among its tasks, the Disclosure Committee will discuss and review disclosure issues to help the Company fulfill its disclosure obligations on a timely basis in accordance with SEC rules and regulations and is intended to be used as an additional resource for employees to raise questions regarding accounting, auditing, internal controls and disclosure matters.
      Since we became a public company in 1999, the Company has had a confidential Corporate Ethics/ Help Line, where questions or concerns about the Company can be raised confidentially and anonymously. The Ethics/ Help line is available to all of our employees, as well as concerned individuals outside the company. The toll-free help line number is 1-877-666-6968.
      The receipt of concerns about the Company’s accounting, internal controls and auditing matters will be reported to the Audit Committee.
Communications with the Board
      Our Governance Guidelines provide that any interested parties desiring to communicate with our non-management directors may contact such directors through the Company’s Secretary, John T. Kuelbs, whose address is: Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, 12333 West Olympic Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90064-1021.
ITEM 1 ON PROXY CARD — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
       The Board of Directors has nominated for election this year the class of three incumbent directors whose terms expire at the 2005 Annual Meeting.
      The three-year term of the class of directors nominated and elected this year will expire at the 2008 Annual Meeting. However, as a result of our retirement policy for directors, if Mr. Queenan is re-elected, he will step down at the 2006 Annual Meeting. The Board may grant a waiver to the retirement policy.
      The three individuals who receive the highest number of votes cast will be elected. Broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast.
      If you sign and return your proxy card, the individuals named as proxies in the card will vote your shares for the election of the three named nominees, unless you provide other instructions. You may withhold authority for the proxies to vote your shares on any or all of the nominees by following the instructions on your proxy card. If a nominee becomes unable to serve, the proxies will vote for a Board-designated substitute or the Board may reduce the number of directors. The Board has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.
      Background information about the nominees and continuing directors follows.

COMMITTEES OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS
       Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Nominating and Governance Committee and a Personnel and Compensation Committee. From time to time, our Board of Directors may establish other committees.
Audit Committee
      The members of the Audit Committee are:
  Frank V. Cahouet, Chair
  Robert P. Bozzone
  Simon M. Lorne
  Paul D. Miller
  Charles J. Queenan, Jr.
      The Audit Committee held nine meetings and acted once by unanimous written consent in 2004.
      The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board’s oversight of the integrity of our financial statements, our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the qualification and the independence of our independent auditor, and the performance of our internal audit function and independent auditor. As provided in its charter, the Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, retention, compensation, oversight, evaluation and termination of the Company’s independent auditor (including resolving disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting). The Audit Committee has been designated as the “qualified legal compliance committee.” In carrying out its responsibilities, the Audit Committee undertakes to do many things, including:
  •  Retain and approve the terms of the engagement and fees to be paid to the independent auditor.
 
  •  Evaluate the performance of the independent auditor.
 
  •  Receive written periodic reports from the independent auditor delineating all relationships between the independent auditor and the Company.
 
  •  Review with the independent auditor any problems or difficulties the auditor may have encountered and any management letter provided by the auditor and the Company’s response to that letter.
 
  •  Review the Company’s annual audited financial statements and the report thereon and quarterly unaudited financial statements with the independent auditor and management prior to publication of such statements.
 
  •  Discuss with management the earnings press releases (including the type of information and presentation of information).
 
  •  Review major issues regarding accounting principles and financial statement presentations and judgments made in connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements.

Table of Contents

  •  Meet periodically with management to review the Company’s financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures.
  •  Review with the Company’s General Counsel legal matters that may have a material impact on the financial statements, the Company’s compliance policies and any material reports or inquiries received from regulators or governmental agencies.
      The Audit Committee charter provides that the Company’s senior internal auditing executive reports directly and separately to the Chair of the Audit Committee and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. As required by the charter, our Audit Committee also has established procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters. See “Corporate Governance — Sarbanes-Oxley Disclosure Committee” at page 4. A copy of the amended and restated Audit Committee Charter is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A.
      The Audit Committee meets the size, independence and experience requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, including the enhanced independence requirements for Audit Committee members under Exchange Act Rule 10A-3. The Board of Directors has determined that Frank V. Cahouet is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the SEC regulations and is “independent” under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards. Our Governance Guidelines provides that no director may serve as a member of the Audit Committee if such director serves on the audit committees of more than two other public companies unless the Board determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such director to effectively serve on the Audit Committee. Any such determination must be disclosed in the annual proxy statement. Besides our Audit Committee, each of Admiral Miller and Mr. Queenan simultaneously serves on the audit committee of two other public companies and each of Mr. Lorne, Mr. Cahouet and Mr. Smith simultaneously serves on the audit committee of one other public company.
      The report of the Audit Committee is included under “Item 2 on Proxy Card — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditor” at page 16.

      The members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are:
  Diane C. Creel, Chair
  Frank V. Cahouet
  Charles Crocker
  Simon M. Lorne
  Paul D. Miller
  Michael T. Smith
      The Nominating and Governance Committee had four meetings and acted once by unanimous written consent in 2004.
      The Nominating and Governance Committee undertakes to:
  •  Identify individuals qualified to become members of the Board of Directors and to make recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to candidates for nomination for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders or at such other times when candidates surface and, in connection therewith, consider suggestions submitted by stockholders of the Company.

      The charter of the Nominating and Governance Committee was last reviewed, amended and restated on December 15, 2004. The members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are “independent” within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards.
      The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider stockholder recommendations for nominees for director. Any stockholders interested in suggesting a nominee should follow the procedures outlined in “Other Information — 2006 Annual Meeting and Stockholder Proposals” at page 44.
      The Nominating and Governance Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating all nominees for directors. The Committee periodically assesses the appropriate size of the Board and whether vacancies on the Board are expected due to retirement, change in professional status or otherwise. Candidates may come to the attention of the Committee through current Board members, members of Teledyne management, stockholders and other persons. The Committee to date has not engaged a professional search firm. These candidates are evaluated at meetings of the Committee and may be considered at any point during the year. As stated in the Governance Guidelines, nominees for director are to be selected on the basis of, among other criteria, experience, knowledge, skills, expertise, integrity, diversity, ability to make analytical inquiries, understanding of or familiarity with the Company’s business products or markets or similar business products or markets, and willingness to devote adequate time and effort to Board responsibilities. The Committee may establish additional criteria and is responsible for assessing the appropriate balance of criteria required of Board members.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
       Directors who are not our employees are paid an annual retainer fee of $24,000. Directors are also paid $1,200 for each Board meeting, Audit Committee meeting, and Personnel and Compensation Committee meeting and $1,000 for each Nominating and Governance Committee meeting attended. Each non-employee chair of the Audit Committee and the Personnel and Compensation Committee is paid an annual fee of $3,500. The non-employee chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee is paid an annual fee of $2,500. Directors who are our employees do not receive any compensation for their services on our Board or its committees.
      The non-employee directors also participate in the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 1999 Non-Employee Director Stock Compensation Plan, as amended. In lieu of cash annual retainer fees, cash Committee chair fees and cash meeting fees, this plan permits non-employee directors to elect to receive shares of our Common Stock and/or stock options or to defer compensation under the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (including a phantom share fund); provided, however, that at least 25% of the annual retainer fee must be paid in the form of our Common Stock and/or options to acquire our Common Stock. It also provides for certain automatic stock option grants for 4,000 shares of our Common Stock at the end of each Annual Meeting of Stockholders. If a non-employee director is first elected other than at an annual meeting, such non-employee director would receive an automatic option grant for 2,000 shares of our Common Stock.

ITEM 2 ON PROXY CARD —
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITOR
       The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) as the Company’s independent auditor, also referred to as the independent registered public accounting firm, for fiscal 2005. Ernst & Young has served as independent auditor for the Company since the November 29, 1999 spin-off. The firm had also served as independent auditors for ATI and its predecessors since 1980. The Audit Committee believes that Ernst & Young is knowledgeable about the Company’s operations and accounting practices and is well qualified to act in the capacity of independent auditor.
      Although the appointment of independent auditor is not required to be approved by the stockholders, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors believe that stockholders should participate in such selection through ratification. The proposal to ratify the Audit Committee’s appointment of Ernst & Young will be approved by the stockholders if it receives the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. If you sign and return your proxy card, your shares will be voted (unless you indicate to the contrary) to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young as independent auditors for 2005. If you specifically abstain from voting on the proposal, your shares will, in effect, be voted against the proposal. Broker non-votes will not be counted as being entitled to vote on the proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. If the stockholders do not ratify the selection of Ernst & Young, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment of independent auditor. It is expected that representatives of Ernst & Young will be present at the meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement and respond to appropriate questions.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS
A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT
OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR.

(2)  In 2004, tax fees related to an advanced pricing agreement for the Company’s Mexican subsidiary. In 2003, tax fees related to advice rendered on the extraterritorial income exclusion and general tax compliance and planning advice, including to the Company’s Shanghai, China branch office.
 
(3)  Other fees in both 2004 and 2003 related to financial due diligence assistance in connection with the Company’s acquisitions.
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies
      In October 2002, the Company’s Audit Committee adopted guidelines relating to the rendering of services by external auditors. The guidelines require the approval of the Audit Committee prior to retaining any firm to perform any Audit Services. “Audit Services” include the services necessary to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for a specified fiscal year and the following audit and audit-related services: (a) Statement on Auditing Standards No. 71 quarterly review services; (b) regulatory and employee benefit plan financial statement audits; and (c) compliance and statutory attestation services for the Corporation’s subsidiaries. Subject to limited exceptions, the guidelines further provide that the Audit Committee must pre-approve the engagement of Ernst & Young to provide any services other than Audit Services. The Chair of the Audit Committee may, however, pre-approve the engagement of Ernst & Young for such non-audit services to the extent the fee is reasonably expected to be less than $150,000. If the fee for any non-audit services is reasonably expected to be $250,000 or more, the Company must seek at least one competing bid from another firm prior to engaging Ernst & Young, unless there are exceptional circumstances or if it relates to the public offering of the Company’s securities. The guidelines prohibit the Company from engaging Ernst & Young to perform any of the following non-audit services or other services that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines by regulation to be prohibited: bookkeeping or other services related to accounting records or financial statements of the Company; financial information systems design and implementation; appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports; actuarial services; internal auditing outsourcing services; management functions or human resources; broker or dealer, investment advisor, or investment banking services; or legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit.
      For 2004, all audit and non-audit services rendered by Ernst & Young were pre-approved in accordance with the Company’s guidelines.
      In making its recommendation to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young as the Company’s independent accountants for the fiscal year ending January 1, 2006, the Audit Committee considered whether the provision of non-audit services by Ernst & Young is compatible with maintaining Ernst & Young’s independence.
Audit Committee Report
      The following report of the Audit Committee is included in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is not incorporated by

reference into any of the Company’s registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933.
Report of Audit Committee
       The following is the report of the Audit Committee with respect to the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2005 (the “Financial Statements”) of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”).
      The responsibilities of the Audit Committee are set forth in the Audit Committee Charter, as amended and restated as of January 25, 2005, which has been adopted by the Board of Directors. A copy of the charter is attached to the Proxy Statement as Annex A. The Audit Committee is comprised of five directors. The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that each of the members of the Audit Committee is independent in accordance with the applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange. The Board of Directors has also determined that at least one director has “financial management expertise” under New York Stock Exchange listing standards and that Frank V. Cahouet is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations.
      Management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements, the Company’s internal controls and financial reporting process and the procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”), the Company’s independent accountants, are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s Financial Statements and expressing an opinion as to their conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the Company’s Financial Statements with management and Ernst & Young, and discussed with Ernst & Young the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU Section 380), as amended. The Audit Committee has received written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees) and has discussed with Ernst & Young the independent accountants’ independence.
      The members of the Audit Committee are not professionally engaged in the practice of auditing or accounting and are not, and do not represent themselves to be, performing the functions of auditors or accountants. Members of the Audit Committee may rely without independent verification on the information provided to them and on the representations made by management and Ernst & Young. Accordingly, the Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or appropriate internal control and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee’s considerations and discussions referred to above do not assure that the audit of the Company’s financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, that the financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or that the Company’s auditors are in fact “independent”.

Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, non-employee directors may elect to have their deferred monies treated as though they are invested in Teledyne Common Stock (called the “Teledyne Common Stock Phantom Fund”).

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
2004 Report on Executive Compensation
      The following report of the Personnel and Compensation Committee is included in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is not incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933.
2004 Report on Executive Compensation
      This report on executive compensation is furnished by the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (“Teledyne” or the “Company”). This report is not incorporated by reference into any of Teledyne’s registration statements filed under the Securities Act of 1933.
      Effective November 29, 1999, the Company was spun-off from Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated, now known as Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (“ATI”). In connection with the spin-off, Teledyne’s executive compensation program was established, which had its genesis in the program established by ATI. Pursuant to the Employee Benefits Agreement dated November 29, 1999, between Teledyne and ATI executed in connection with the spin-off (the “Employee Benefits Agreement”), the Company was contractually required to take various actions with respect to certain executive benefit plans and programs. Since the spin-off, the Committee has approved various modifications to the Company’s executive compensation program to enable the Company to be more

20


Table of Contents

competitive and aligned with high technology businesses and, thus, better assure attraction and retention of quality management. The Committee did not engage any outside executive compensation consultant with respect to Teledyne’s original adoption of its executive compensation program, although Hewitt Associates LLC had provided advice and data to ATI about executive compensation in connection with the spin-off. Subsequently, Hewitt Associates LLC has reviewed Teledyne’s current executive compensation program from a competitive marketplace perspective. In addition, Hewitt Associates LLC and Watson Wyatt & Company each have from time to time provided Teledyne with compensation and benefits advice and data. The Committee also has considered publicly available market and other data on executive compensation matters.
      The companies used by Hewitt Associates LLC and Watson Wyatt & Company for comparative purposes are based for the most part on size and industries in which the Company operates. Such peer group is not used for the purposes of the Company’s performance graph included in this Proxy Statement under the caption “Cumulative Total Stockholder Return”. The Company’s performance graph does compare the Company’s performance to the Russell 2000 Index, which is a performance measure under the Company’s long-term incentive compensation programs described below.
Personnel and Compensation Committee Charter
      The Committee has a written charter that delineates its responsibilities relating to Teledyne’s compensation and benefits programs. The Committee’s principal responsibilities are summarized elsewhere in this Proxy Statement under the caption “Committees of the Board of Directors — Personnel and Compensation Committee.” A full copy of the charter is also posted on the Company’s website at www.teledyne.com. The charter was last reviewed, amended and restated on December 15, 2004.
Executive Compensation Policy
      The Committee has determined that total compensation for Teledyne executives would be comprised of three general characteristics:
  •  It will be competitive in the aggregate, using a set of business and labor market competitors (by industry segment, as appropriate) to gauge the competitive marketplace.
 
  •  It will be performance oriented, with a substantial portion of the total compensation tied to internal and external measures of Company performance.
 
  •  It will promote long-term careers at Teledyne.
      Consistent with these characteristics, the Committee adopted the following policies for base salaries, short-term incentives and long-term incentives.
      Base Salary. Base salary for all management positions will be at the business unit’s industry/market median for comparable positions unless there are sound reasons, such as competitive factors, for varying significantly from industry medians. The Committee’s judgment will always be the guiding factor in base salary determinations, as well as any other compensation issue. The Committee believes that no system should be so rigid that it prevents the use of judgment.

21


Table of Contents

      Short-Term Incentives. Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) awards will allow for competitive cash compensation, based on the achievement of pre-defined performance measures, with up to 200% of the target award paid in the case of significant over-achievement. The majority of the award will be based on Teledyne’s achievement of certain financial performance goals, with a smaller portion tied to the achievement of pre-established individual goals. Generally, 40% of the awards were tied to the achievement of predetermined levels of operating profit, 25% to the achievement of predetermined levels of revenue, 15% to the achievement of predetermined levels of accounts receivable and inventory as a percentage of revenue and 20% to the achievement of specified individual performance objectives. These predetermined levels may vary by business unit. In addition, a discretionary adjustment of plus or minus 20% is allowed, although aggregate upward adjustments will not exceed 5%. AIP awards are to be paid from a pool equal to 11% of operating profit, subject to modification by the Committee. No AIP bonus will be earned in any year unless operating profit is positive, after accruing for bonus payments, and operating profit is at least 75% of the operating plan, subject in each case to modification by the Committee.
      Long-Term Incentives. Teledyne has two long-term incentive plans that have been approved by its stockholders: (1) the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 1999 Incentive Plan, as amended (the “1999 Incentive Plan”), and (2) the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (“2002 Stock Incentive Plan”).
      Long-term incentives consist of three components:
      Stock options are to be awarded annually to a broader group of key employees who are nominated by management to receive awards and whose awards the Committee approves. In practice, the amount of the award generally depends on the employee’s salary grade and position. In 2004, as in 2003, stock options awards were reduced from prior year levels because of the potential of having to expense stock options. Another reduction has already been made for 2005 awards.
      A three-year Performance Share Program (“PSP”) opportunity, with a new “cycle” beginning every three years, is available to selected officers and key executives. The PSP provides grants of performance share units, which key Company officers and executives may earn if Teledyne meets specified performance objectives over a three-year period. Forty percent of the PSP award is based on the achievement of specified levels of operating profit, 30% on the achievement of specified levels of revenue and 30% on the achievement of specified levels of return to shareholders. No awards are made if the three-year aggregate operating profit is less than 75% of target, unless the Committee determines otherwise. A maximum of 200% for each component can be earned if 120% of the target is achieved. Under the 2000 through 2002 cycle, for the three-year aggregate return to shareholders performance measure, the S&P SmallCap 600 Index (in which Teledyne is included) had been the benchmark. For the 2003-2005 cycle, the Russell 2000 Index is the benchmark. Awards are generally paid to the participants in three annual installments after the end of the performance cycle so long as they remain employed by Teledyne (with exceptions for retirement, disability and death). As to the 2000-2002 cycle, two-thirds of the award was paid in Teledyne Common Stock and one-third was paid in cash. For 2003-2005 and future cycles, one-half will be paid in Teledyne Common Stock and one-half will be paid in cash.
      A Restricted Stock Award Program (“RSAP”) opportunity has also been established for selected officers and key executives, which was first approved and adopted by the

22


Table of Contents

Committee in 2000. The RSAP provides grants of “restricted stock”, generally each calendar year, to selected officers and key executives at an aggregate fair market value equal to 30% of each recipient’s annual base salary as of the date of the grant, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. The restrictions are subject to both a time-based and performance-based component. In general, the “restricted period” for each grant of restricted stock extends from the date of the grant to the third anniversary of such date, with the restrictions lapsing on the third anniversary. However, unless the Committee determines otherwise, if Teledyne fails to meet certain minimum performance goals for a multi-year performance cycle (typically three years) established by the Committee as applicable to a restricted stock award, then all of the restricted stock is forfeited. If Teledyne achieves the minimum established performance goals, but fails to attain an aggregate level of 100% of the targeted performance goals, then a portion of the restricted stock would be forfeited. The performance goal for 2004 was the stock price as compared to the Russell 2000 index.
      A participant cannot transfer the restricted stock during the restricted period. In addition, during the restricted period, restricted stock will be forfeited upon a participant’s termination of employment for any reason. However, if the participant dies, becomes disabled or retires prior to the expiration of the applicable performance cycle, the amount of the participant’s restricted stock that is not subject to forfeiture at the end of the performance cycle will be pro-rated for the portion of the performance cycle completed by the participant prior to his death, disability or retirement and that amount will become vested at the end of the performance cycle. Upon expiration of the restricted period, absent any forfeiture, the Company will deliver to the recipient of restricted stock one or more stock certificates for the appropriate number of shares of Teledyne Common Stock, as determined by the Committee based on achievement of the specified performance objectives. The RSAP replaces, and is the successor to, the Stock Acquisition and Retention Program established by ATI (the “ATI SARP”), which the Company assumed in part as described below in connection with the spin-off.
2004 Compensation
Short-Term Incentives
      Annual Incentive Plan. For 2004, AIP awards ranged from 27% to 178% of the target incentives because the targets and levels of achievement varied by business unit. For 2004, AIP awards were determined as follows: 40% of the award was tied to the achievement of predetermined levels of operating profit, 25% to the achievement of predetermined levels of revenue, 15% to the achievement of predetermined levels of accounts receivable and inventory as a percentage of revenue and 20% to the achievement of specific individual performance objectives. For 2004, AIP awards were paid from a pool equal to 10.7% of operating profit. The bonus column of the Summary Compensation Table contains any AIP award for 2004 to the named executives.
Long-Term Incentives
      Stock Options. At the beginning of 2004, under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, Teledyne made one annual award of stock options for an aggregate of 458,359 shares of Common Stock to a total of 219 employees.
      Performance Share Program. Teledyne’s first three-year “cycle” under the PSP commenced January 1, 2000 and ended December 31, 2002. As described above, the PSP

Table of Contents

award is based on achievement of specified levels of operating profit, revenue and return to shareholders during the three-year period. With respect to the 2000-2002 cycle, the Committee waived the requirement that Teledyne meet 75% of operating profit target, and determined that 80% of target performance was met. In making this determination, the Committee recognized management’s hard work and perseverance in adverse market conditions as well as a change in Teledyne’s strategic direction. All of the named executives in the Summary Compensation Table (with the exception of Mr. Pichelli) participated in the 2000-2002 PSP, although the PSP award to Mr. Link had been proportionately reduced since he joined Teledyne after the cycle commenced. The second installment payment of awards was paid in 2004. An aggregate of 43,621 shares was issued in 2004 under 2000-2002 PSP to 23 participants. The aggregate cash award was $702,541. Of the named executives in the Summary Compensation Table, Dr. Mehrabian received 5,086 shares and $236,823; Mr. Kuelbs 6,327 shares and $30,556; Mr. Schnittjer 2,434 shares and $26,438; and Mr. Link 1,502 shares and $20,789.
      In December 2002, under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, the Committee established a performance cycle for the three-year period ending December 31, 2005, with the same performance goals as for the prior cycle (but using the Russell 2000 Index as the performance index for the return to shareholders goal). All of the named executives in the Summary Compensation Table participate in the 2003-2005 PSP, with payments, if any, to be made in 2006, 2007 and 2008.
      Restricted Stock Award Program. On January 27, 2004, Teledyne granted restricted stock under the RSAP to selected officers and key executives. Each participant received a grant of restricted stock equal to 30% of his or her annual base salary as of the date of grant. The performance period for such restricted stock grant ends December 31, 2006, and restrictions on any shares not otherwise forfeited lapse on January 27, 2007. In order for the recipients of grants to retain all the restricted stock granted, the Company three-year aggregate return to shareholders (as measured by its stock price) must equal or exceed the Russell 2000 Index. If Teledyne’s aggregate return to shareholders (as measured by its stock price) does not equal at least 35% of the performance of the Russell 2000 Index for the cycle, the award will be forfeited in full, unless the Committee determines otherwise. If the Company’s return is between 35% and 100% of the Russell 2000 Index for the cycle, a portion of the shares will be forfeited. An aggregate of 52,368 shares of restricted stock are currently issued and outstanding. Of the named executives in the Summary Compensation Table, Dr. Mehrabian (9,541 shares), Mr. Kuelbs (5,350 shares), Mr. Schnittjer (4,692 shares), Mr. Link (4,067 shares), and Mr. Pichelli (3,363 shares) were granted restricted stock.
      The terms of the January 27, 2004 award were identical to a grant of restricted stock made on January 22, 2002 and February 25, 2003 under the RSAP to selected officers and key executives. The performance period for the 2002 restricted stock grant ended on December 31, 2004, and restrictions on any shares not otherwise forfeited lapsed on January 22, 2005. Restrictions were removed from an aggregate of 51,290 shares held by 13 participants since the three-year aggregate return to shareholders was 134.8% of the performance of the Russell 2000 Index for the three-year performance period. Of the named executives in the Summary Compensation Table, restrictions were removed from shares issued to Dr. Mehrabian (10,330 shares), Mr. Kuelbs (5,866 shares), Mr. Schnittjer (3,518 shares), Mr. Link (4,205 shares) and Mr. Pichelli (2,832 shares). The performance period for the 2003 restricted stock award ends on December 31, 2005, and restrictions on any shares not otherwise forfeited lapse on February 25, 2006. With

Table of Contents

respect to the 2003 award, an aggregate of 65,526 shares of restricted stock are currently issued and outstanding and held by 12 participants.
      ATI SARP. As a result of the spin-off, under the Employee Benefits Agreement, seven Teledyne executives (including three now retired executives) who had purchased or designated shares of ATI stock under the ATI SARP received distributions of common stock of Teledyne and Water Pik Technologies, Inc. (“Water Pik”) on the purchased or designated ATI shares. The shares that they received in the spin-off as well as the original shares were held as collateral for loans for purchased shares, all of which had been retained by ATI, until the loans were fully paid. Restricted shares issued under the ATI SARP were converted into shares of Teledyne Common Stock and were subject to the restrictions set forth in the original ATI SARP. In 2000, the Committee took action to permit Teledyne executives who participated in the ATI SARP to use ATI and Water Pik shares that they had purchased under the ATI SARP to pay down loans for purchased shares, whether or not such shares had been held for five years as otherwise required by the ATI SARP. The Committee also released the transfer restrictions on ATI and Water Pik shares that Teledyne participants held as designated stock under the ATI SARP. At the beginning of 2004, only two Teledyne executives remained as participants in the ATI SARP. In February 2004, in accordance with the terms of the ATI SARP, the two executives paid off their ATI loans and restrictions lapsed on an aggregate of 20,246 shares of Teledyne Common Stock held by the two executives, including Dr. Mehrabian (14,384 shares). References to the ATI SARP will be removed from future reports of this Committee.
Change in Control Severance Agreements
      After the spin-off, the Committee recommended and the Board of Directors approved Change in Control Severance Agreements for the named executives (other than Messrs. Link and Pichelli) and selected other key executives. The Agreement for Mr. Link was approved when he joined the Company and the Agreement for Mr. Pichelli was approved in 2002. In entering into the Agreements, the Committee desired to assure that Teledyne would have the continued dedication of certain executives and the availability of their advice and counsel, notwithstanding the possibility of a change in control, and to induce such executives to remain in the employ of the Company. The Committee believes that, should the possibility of a change in control arise, it is imperative that Teledyne be able to receive and rely upon its executives’ advice, if requested, as to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders without the concern that he or she might be distracted by the personal uncertainties and risks created by the possibility of a change in control. The Committee also considered arrangements offered to similarly situated executives of comparable companies. The Agreements have a three-year, automatically renewing term. The executive is entitled to severance benefits if (1) there is a change in control of the Company and (2) within three months before or 24 months after the change in control, either the Company terminates the executive’s employment for reasons other than cause or the executive terminates the employment for good reason. “Severance benefits” consist of:
  •  A cash payment equal to three times (in the case of Dr. Mehrabian, Messrs. Kuelbs, Schnittjer and Link and one other executive) or two times (in the case of Mr. Pichelli and nine other executives) the sum of (i) the executive’s highest annual base salary within the year preceding the change in control and (ii) the AIP bonus target for the year in which the change in control occurs or the year immediately preceding the change in control, whichever is higher.

25


Table of Contents

  •  A cash payment for the current AIP bonus based on the fraction of the year worked times the AIP target objectives at 120% (with payment of the prior year bonus if not yet paid).
 
  •  Payment in cash for unpaid PSP awards, assuming applicable goals are met at 120% of performance.
 
  •  Continued equivalent health and welfare (e.g., medical, dental, vision, life insurance and disability) benefits at Teledyne’s expense for a period of up to 36 months (24 months in some agreements) after termination (with the executive bearing any portion of the cost the executive bore prior to the change in control); provided, however, such benefits would be discontinued to the extent the executive receives similar benefits from a subsequent employer.
 
  •  Immediate vesting of all stock options, with options being exercisable for the full remaining term.
 
  •  Removal of restrictions on restricted stock issued by the Company under our Restricted Stock Award Programs.
 
  •  Full vesting under the Company’s pension plans (within legal parameters).
 
  •  Up to $25,000 ($15,000 in some agreements) reimbursement for actual professional outplacement services.
 
  •  A “gross-up-payment” to cover any excise and federal income taxes imposed on the executive as a result of the payments constituting a “golden parachute” as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.
      During 2004, as a matter of good practice and not because of any particular transaction, the Committee reviewed the potential aggregate costs to a potential acquirer associated with the Change in Control Severance Agreements, including excise taxes and gross-up payments associated with such agreements. The Committee considered it unlikely that the employment of all 15 applicable employees would be terminated following a change in control.
Compensation of Chief Executive Officer
      Employment Agreement. The Company and Dr. Robert Mehrabian, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, are parties to an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated as of April 25, 2001 (the “Employment Agreement”), which amended and restated the Employment Agreement dated as of December 21, 1999 that had been recommended and approved by the Committee. The Employment Agreement provides that the Company shall employ him as the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and supplements his Change in Control Severance Agreement dated as of December 21, 1999. It provides that Dr. Mehrabian is entitled to participate in Teledyne’s AIP and other executive compensation programs and provides him a nonqualified pension arrangement as described below. The employment agreement terminated on December 31, 2003, but was and will automatically be extended annually unless either party gives the other written notice prior to October 31 that it will not be extended for the next year.
      Base Salary and Bonus. The Committee determined Dr. Mehrabian’s 2003 compensation in accordance with the general compensation philosophy described above.

26


Table of Contents

Effective September 1, 2004, Dr. Mehrabian’s annual base salary was increased to $631,350 from $610,000. In making such increase, the Committee reviewed information provided by Hewitt Associates, which indicated Dr. Mehrabian’s then base salary approximated the median survey data. The Committee also considered Dr. Mehrabian’s perseverance and successful efforts with respect to Teledyne’s operational excellence program, the strategic acquisitions that closed during 2004, Teledyne’s succession planning and leadership development and Teledyne’s stock performance. The Committee also considered Dr. Mehrabian’s salary history since the 1999 spin-off from ATI. The Committee noted that this 3.5% increase was commensurate with the recommended average to the general employee base and senior management and consistent with benchmark surveys.
      Dr. Mehrabian received an award of $1,000,000 under the Annual Incentive Plan for 2004, which was principally tied to achievement of the target levels described above. In determining Dr. Mehrabian’s award, the Committee reviewed Dr. Mehrabian’s performance against his personal objectives for 2004. The Committee considered Teledyne’s 2004 revenue and EPS growth, the five strategic acquisitions made during 2004 and the Company’s on-going cost reductions and margin expansion efforts led by Dr, Mehrabian. The Committee also considered the AIP awards paid to Dr. Mehrabian for prior years.
      Stock Options. On January 27, 2004, the Committee awarded Dr. Mehrabian options to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, a reduction of 16.67% from 2003 because of the potential of having to expense stock options. The Committee determined that this reduced amount, which had been initially recommended by Dr. Mehrabian, appropriately rewarded his leadership, perseverance and strategic vision. As with other grants made under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan on that date, Dr. Mehrabian’s options have a per share exercise price of $19.27, are exercisable in one-third annual increments commencing on January 27, 2005, and have a 10-year term.
      Performance Share Program. As described above, Dr. Mehrabian participates in the PSP. A three-year performance cycle under the PSP ended on December 31, 2002, and payments are to be made in three annual installments, with the first installment having been made in 2003 and the second installment having been made in 2004. As with other participants, Dr. Mehrabian’s award for this cycle is based on 80% of target performance. In 2004, 5,086 shares were issued to Dr. Mehrabian as part of his second installment payment. Dr. Mehrabian was entitled to 13,803 shares, however chose to pay taxes due related to the issuance by reducing the number of shares to which he was entitled by 8,717 shares, resulting in an increased cash portion of his award of $170,156. Thus the cash portion of this installment totaled $236,823. Dr. Mehrabian participates in the PSP for the three-year performance cycle ending on December 31, 2005, with payments, if any, to be made in 2006, 2007 and 2008.
      Restricted Stock Award Program. On January 27, 2004, under the RSAP, Dr. Mehrabian received a restricted stock award of 9,541 shares of Teledyne Common Stock, which was equivalent to 30% of his annual base salary as of the date of grant. The number of shares of Teledyne Common Stock that he will ultimately receive under this 2004 grant will be, as described above, based on Teledyne’s return to shareholders as compared to the Russell 2000 Index through December 31, 2006.
      On February 25, 2003, under the RSAP, Dr. Mehrabian received a restricted stock award of 13,298 shares of Teledyne Common Stock under similar terms as the January 27, 2004 grant, but with the three-year performance period ending on December 31, 2005.

27


Table of Contents

      On January 22, 2002, under the RSAP, Dr. Mehrabian had also received a restricted stock award of 10,330 shares of Teledyne Common Stock, under similar terms as the February 25, 2003 and January 27, 2004 grants, but with the three-year performance period having ended on December 31, 2004. The restrictions on these shares were removed on January 22, 2005, since the Company’s return to shareholders was 134.8% of the performance of the Russell 2000 Index for the three-year performance period.
      Pension Arrangements. Under Dr. Mehrabian’s employment agreement, Teledyne has agreed to pay following his retirement, as payments supplemental to any accrued pension under the Company’s qualified pension plan, an annual amount equal to 50% of his base compensation as in effect at retirement. The number of years for which such annual amount shall be paid will be equal to the number of years of his service to Teledyne (including service to ATI), but not more than 10 years.
Deductibility of Executive Compensation
      Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction for annual compensation paid to a chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated officers in excess of $1 million unless the compensation qualifies as “performance-based” or is otherwise exempt under the law. Both the 1999 Incentive Plan and the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan are intended to meet the deductibility requirements of the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m). However, the Committee may determine in any year that it would be in the best interest of the Company for awards to be paid under the 1999 Incentive Plan or the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, or for other compensation to be paid, that would not satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m). In making such determination, the Committee would consider the net cost to the Company and its ability to effectively administer executive compensation in the long-term interests of shareholders.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
      No member of the Personnel and Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors is an officer or employee of the Company. Mr. Queenan is often referred to honorifically as “senior counsel” to a law firm that provided services to the Company during 2004 and currently provides services to the Company. Mr. Queenan retired as a partner of such firm on December 31, 1995. The Company has been advised that the law firm does not compensate him, nor does he participate in the firm’s earnings or profits. Our Board has determined he is independent. See “Certain Transactions” at page 41. No other member of the Committee has a current or prior relationship and no officer who is a statutory insider of the Company has a relationship to any other company, in each case that must be described under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules relating to disclosure of executive compensation.

1.  Participants may elect to pay taxes due with respect to an installment payment with awarded shares, awarded cash or a combination thereof. Dr. Mehrabian chose to pay taxes by reducing the number of shares to which he was entitled. Mr. Schnittjer and Mr. Link chose to pay taxes not covered by the cash portion of their awards by reducing the number of shares to which they he was entitled. Dr. Mehrabian, Mr. Schnittjer and Mr. Link were entitled to 13,803 shares, 3,037 shares and 2,058, respectively. As a result of their elections, shares issuable to Dr. Mehrabian, Mr. Schnittjer and Mr. Link were reduced by 8,717, 603 and 556 shares, respectively, and the cash portion of their awards increased by $170,156, $11,771 and $10,853 to pay applicable taxes. The Company used $19.52, the average of the high and low sale prices of a share of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on February 2, 2004 (the payment date), to determine the taxes due and the value of the shares for reduction purposes.

Pension Plan
      In connection with the spin-off, we adopted the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan on terms substantially similar to the parts of the ATI Pension Plan applicable to all of our employees, both active and inactive at our operations that perform government contract work and for our active employees at our commercial operations. The annual benefits payable under these parts of the pension plan to participating salaried employees retiring at or after age 65 is calculated under a formula which takes into account the participant’s compensation and years of service. The Internal Revenue Code limits the amounts payable to participants under a qualified pension plan. We have also adopted a Benefit Restoration/ Pension Equalization Plan, which is designed to restore benefits which would be payable under the pension plan provisions but for the limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, to the levels calculated pursuant to the formulas contained in the pension plan provisions or for any monies deferred under the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Executive Deferred Compensation Plan.
      Effective January 1, 2004, new non-union employee hires do not participate in the Pension Plan, but participate in our Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan.
      The following table illustrates the approximate annual pension that may become payable to a participating Teledyne employee in the higher salary classifications under our regular and supplemental pension plans.

2.  For the period through December 31, 1994, for Teledyne employees who are in the higher salary classifications, compensation for the purposes of the plan was limited to an individual’s base salary. Thereafter, plan compensation for those employees includes base salary and up to five paid annual incentive payments.
 
3.  The maximum amount of service credited under the pension provisions applicable to our employees is 30 years of credited service, with some exceptions.

      At December 31, 2004, the named executives had the following full years of credited service for determining benefits: Dr. Mehrabian, 5 years; Mr. Kuelbs, 5 years; Mr. Schnittjer, 32 years; Mr. Link, 3 years; and Mr. Pichelli, 24 years.
Employment/Change in Control Agreements
      The Company has entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Dr. Mehrabian, which provides that Teledyne shall employ him as the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement will terminate on December 31 of each year, but will be extended annually unless either party gives the other written notice prior to October 31 that it will not be extended. Effective September 1, 2004, Dr. Mehrabian has an annual base salary of $631,350. The agreement provides that Dr. Mehrabian is entitled to participate in Teledyne’s annual incentive bonus plan and other executive compensation and benefit programs. The agreement provides Dr. Mehrabian with a non-qualified pension arrangement, under which the Company will pay Dr. Mehrabian following his retirement, as payments supplemental to any accrued pension under our qualified pension plan, an amount equal to 50 percent of his base compensation as in effect at retirement. The number of years for which such annual amount shall be paid will be equal to the number of years of his service to Teledyne (including service to ATI), but not more than 10 years.
      The Company has Change in Control Severance Agreements with Dr. Mehrabian, Messrs. Kuelbs, Schnittjer, Link, and Pichelli, and 10 other current key employees. The agreements have a three-year, automatically renewing term. Under the agreements, the executive is entitled to severance benefits if (1) there is a change in control of the Company and (2) within three months before or 24 months after the change in control, either the Company terminates the executive’s employment for reasons other than for cause or the executive terminates the employment for good reason. “Severance benefits” consist of:
  •  A cash payment equal to three times (in the case of Dr. Mehrabian, Messrs. Kuelbs, Schnittjer and Link and one other executive) or two times (in the case of Mr. Pichelli and nine other executives) the sum of (i) the executive’s highest annual base salary within the year preceding the change in control and (ii) the Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) bonus target for the year in which the change in control occurs or the year immediately preceding the change in control, whichever is higher.
 
  •  A cash payment for the current AIP bonus based on the fraction of the year worked times the AIP target objectives at 120 percent (with payment of the prior year bonus if not yet paid).
 
  •  Payment in cash for unpaid Performance Share Plan awards, assuming applicable goals are met at 120 percent of performance.
 
  •  Continued equivalent health and welfare (e.g., medical, dental, vision, life insurance and disability) benefits at Teledyne’s expense for a period of up to 36 months (24 months under some agreements) after termination (with the executive bearing any portion of the cost the executive bore prior to the change in control); provided, however, such benefits would be discontinued to the extent the executive receives similar benefits from a subsequent employer.

  •  Immediate vesting of all stock options, with options being exercisable for the full remaining term.
  •  Removal of restrictions on restricted stock issued by the Company under Restricted Stock Award Programs.
 
  •  Full vesting under the Company’s pension plans (within legal parameters).
 
  •  Up to $25,000 ($15,000 in some agreements) reimbursement for actual professional outplacement services.
 
  •  A “gross-up-payment” to cover any excise and federal income taxes imposed on the executive as a result of the payments constituting a “golden parachute” as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.
CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
Spin-Off Agreements
      We entered into several agreements with ATI governing the separation of our businesses and various employee benefits, compensation, tax, indemnification and transition arrangements. The Company’s principal spin-off requirements, including the arrangement to ensure a favorable tax treatment, have been satisfied. Three of our nine directors continue to serve on ATI’s board. In addition, under one of our spin-off agreements, since November 29, 2004, the Company is now able to charge pension costs to the U.S. Government under certain government contracts. In 2004, we also purchased the “Teledyne” name and related logos, symbols and marks from an affiliate of ATI for $412,000. In February 2004, in accordance with the terms of the ATI SARP described on page 25, Dr. Mehrabian paid off his outstanding loan to ATI in the amount of $185,194.
Other Relationships
      Kirkpatrick & Lockhart Nicholson Graham LLP. We retained the law firm of Kirkpatrick & Lockhart Nicholson and Graham LLP (formerly known as Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP) to perform services for the Company during 2004, and expect additional services to continue in 2005. While Charles J. Queenan, Jr., a member of our Board of Directors, is often referred to honorifically as “senior counsel” to this law firm, he retired as a partner on December 31, 1995. The Company has been advised that the law firm does not compensate him, nor does he share in the firm’s earnings or profits. Nothing withstanding this relationship, our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Queenan is “independent,” within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, and able to serve on the Audit Committee and the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. See “Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation.”
      Mellon Bank. Dr. Mehrabian is a director of Mellon Financial Corporation. Mr. Cahouet had served as Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mellon Financial Corporation and Mellon Bank, N.A., having retired on December 31, 1998. Mr. Cahouet ceased being a director of Mellon Financial Corporation on April 18, 2000. We maintain various arms-length banking relationships with Mellon Bank, N.A. Mellon Bank, N.A. is one of ten lenders under our $280,000,000 credit facility, having committed to lend up to $25,000,000 under the facility. It also provides cash management services and

41

an uncommitted $5,000,000 line of credit. Mellon Bank, N.A. also serves as trustee for the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan and provides asset management services for the Pension Plan. Mellon Investor Services LLC serves as our transfer agent and registrar, as well as the agent under Teledyne’s stockholders rights plan. Notwithstanding these relationships, our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Cahouet is “independent,” within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, and able to serve on the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
      Korn/ Ferry International. Korn/ Ferry International provided recruiting services for Teledyne and its subsidiaries in 2004 and will continue to provide recruiting services to Teledyne in 2005. Mr. Cahouet, a director of the Company, is also a director of Korn/ Ferry International, and his son is a member of its management, but not an executive officer.

ANNEX A
AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER
(As amended and restated on January 25, 2005)
       The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (the “Corporation”) shall appoint the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”), which should be constituted and have the purposes, responsibilities and authority as described herein.
Composition
      The Audit Committee shall meet the size, independence and experience requirements of the New York Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Commission, as may be in effect from time to time, and the Board shall make any necessary determinations regarding compliance with those requirements. The members of the Audit Committee shall be appointed by the Board on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, and may be replaced by the Board. The Audit Committee shall designate one member as its Chair and may form and delegate authority to subcommittees of one or more members of the Audit Committee.
Purpose and Responsibilities
      The Audit Committee’s primary purpose shall be to (a) assist the Board’s oversight of (i) the integrity of the financial statements of the Corporation, (ii) the Corporation’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (iii) the qualifications and the independence of the Corporation’s independent auditor and (iv) the performance of the Corporation’s internal audit function and independent auditor; and (b) prepare the report required by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s proxy rules to be included in the Corporation’s annual proxy statement.
      The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, retention, compensation, oversight, evaluation and termination of the Corporation’s independent auditor (including resolving disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting). The independent auditor shall report directly to the Audit Committee. The independent auditor is accountable to the Board and the Audit Committee, as representatives of the Corporation’s stockholders.
      In carrying out its responsibility, the Audit Committee shall undertake the following activities:
  1.  Retain and approve the terms of the engagement and fees to be paid to the independent auditor.
 
  2.  Evaluate the performance of the independent auditor and, if so determined by the Audit Committee, terminate and replace the independent auditor.
 
  3.  Pre-approve, or adopt appropriate procedures to pre-approve, all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditor, and consider whether the outside auditor’s provision of non-audit services to the Corporation is compatible with maintaining the independence of the outside auditor.

A-1


Table of Contents

  4.  Access the auditor’s independence by ensuring that the independent auditor prepares and delivers periodic reports delineating all relationships between the independent auditor and the Corporation. An annual written report shall be consistent with Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 regarding the auditor’s independence. The Audit Committee shall actively engage in dialogue with the independent auditor with respect to any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the auditor, and if determined by the Audit Committee, take appropriate action to ensure the independence of the auditor.
 
  5.  At least annually obtain and review a report by the independent auditor describing the firm’s internal quality-control procedures and any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within the preceding five years, respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm, and any steps taken to deal with such issues.
 
  6.  Meet with the independent auditor prior to the audit to review the planning and scope of the audit.
 
  7.  Discuss with management and the independent auditor the timing and process for implementing the rotation of the lead audit partner, the concurring partner and any other active audit engagement team partner.
 
  8.  Establish hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent auditor.
 
  9.  Review with the independent auditor any problems or difficulties the auditor may have encountered and management’s response. Such review should also include:
  (a)  Any restrictions on the scope of activities or access to requested information.
 
  (b)  Any significant disagreements with management.
 
  (c)  Any changes required in the planned scope of the internal audit.
 
  (d)  Responsibilities, budget and staffing of the Corporation’s internal audit function.
  10.  Obtain from the independent auditor in connection with any audit a timely report relating to the Corporation’s annual audited financial statements describing all critical accounting policies and practices used, all alternative treatments of financial information within generally accepted accounting principles that have been discussed with management, ramifications of the use of such alternative disclosures and treatments, and the treatment preferred by the independent auditor, and any material written communications between the independent auditor and management, such as any management letter or schedule of unadjusted differences.
 
  11.  Discuss with the independent auditor the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 relating to the conduct of the audit.
 
  12.  Obtain from the independent auditor assurance that Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 has been adhered to.

Table of Contents

  13.  Discuss with management and the independent auditor the Corporation’s annual audited financial statements and the report thereon and quarterly unaudited financial statements, including the Corporation’s disclosures under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” prior to the publication of such statements.
 
  14.  Discuss with management the earnings press releases (including the type and presentation of information), as well as financial information and earnings guidance provided to analysts and rating agencies.
 
  15.  Review major issues regarding accounting principles and financial statement presentations and judgments made in connection with the preparation of the Corporation’s financial statements, including any significant changes to the Corporation’s selection or application of auditing or accounting principles and practices as suggested by the independent auditor, internal auditors or management.
 
  16.  Review with management and the independent auditor the adequacy of the Corporation’s internal controls, any significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls that could adversely affect the Corporation’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data, any material weaknesses in internal controls, and any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Corporation’s internal controls, and any actions or special audit steps in light thereof.
 
  17.  Meet at least quarterly with the senior internal auditing executive to discuss internal audits and findings and management’s response. The senior internal auditing executive shall directly (and separately) report to each of the Chair of the Audit Committee and the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation. The primary purpose of this dual reporting structure is to assure that Chair of the Audit Committee has direct access to internal audit-related information concerning the Corporation. It reflects the directive that the Corporation’s internal auditing department, through the senior internal auditing executive, has responsibility to assure that important audit-related issues are brought to the attention of the Chair of the Audit Committee and ultimately the Audit Committee.
 
  18.  Meet periodically with management to discuss the Corporation’s major financial risk exposures and the steps, guidelines and policies taken or implemented relating to risk assessment and risk management.
 
  19.  Review with the Corporation’s General Counsel legal matters that may have a material impact on the financial statements, the Corporation’s compliance policies and any material notices to or reports or inquiries received from regulators or governmental agencies.
 
  20.  Prepare the report required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission to be included in the Corporation’s annual proxy statement.
 
  21.  Establish procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Corporation regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and for the confidential, anonymous submission by Corporation employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

A-3


Table of Contents

  22.  Review and discuss any reports concerning material violations submitted to it by Company attorneys or outside counsel pursuant to the attorney professional rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (17 C.F.R. Part 205) or otherwise.
 
  23.  Prepare the required written confirmation to the New York Stock Exchange at least once a year or upon any changes to the composition of the Audit Committee.
 
  24.  Review and reassess the adequacy of this Charter annually and submit any recommended changes to the Board for approval.
 
  25.  Perform an annual evaluation of the Audit Committee’s performance in the manner recommended by the Nominating and Governance Committee and review such evaluation with the Board.
      The Audit Committee shall meet as often as it deems necessary to carry out its duties, but not less than quarterly, and shall make a report to the Board following each meeting. The Audit Committee should meet separately periodically with management, the internal auditors and the independent auditor to discuss any matters that the Audit Committee or any of these persons or firms believe should be discussed privately.
      The Audit Committee shall have the authority to retain advice and assistance from outside legal, accounting or other advisors as it deems necessary to carry out it duties and responsibilities. The Audit Committee shall determinate what appropriate funding shall be provided by the Corporation for payment of compensation to the outside legal, accounting other advisors employed by the Audit Committee, as well as for the payment of ordinary administrative expenses of the Audit Committee that are necessary or appropriate to carry out its duties. The Audit Committee may request such advisors and any officer or employee of the Corporation, as well as the independent auditor, to attend a meeting of the Audit Committee or to meet with any members of, or advisors to, the Audit Committee.
      While the Audit Committee has the responsibility and authority set forth in this Charter, it is not the duty of the Audit Committee or its members to plan or conduct “field work” or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or procedures or to determine that the Corporation’s financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This is the responsibility of management and the independent auditor. Management and the internal audit department are also responsible for maintaining appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and policies and internal controls and procedures that provide for compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. In fulfilling their responsibilities hereunder, it is recognized that members of the Audit Committee are not full-time employees of the Corporation and are not, and do not represent themselves to be, performing the function of auditors or accountants.
