Directors has designated its Compensation Committee (the "Committee") as the
committee to administer the Plan. The applicable terms of the Plan are
incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and
not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Plan.
Pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Plan, on January 2, 2004, the Committee
decided to make the Awards of the Company's Common Stock, par value $1 per share
(the "Common Shares") to you, as described above and subject to the terms and
conditions described below:
- You must be employed by the Company on January 2 of the applicable
year set forth above in order to receive the grant of Restricted
Shares for that year.
- Shares will be issued upon approval of the company's year-end
financial results by the Audit Committee. The Committee may withhold
the granting of any annual award based on the company remaining
solvent.
1. Restrictions on Disposition of Common Shares
A certificate evidencing the Common Shares shall be held by the Company
until the lapse of the restrictions and shall contain the following legend on
the face thereof:
"The transfer of the shares represented by this certificate is
restricted pursuant to the terms of an Award Agreement under the EDO
Corporation 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan."
Upon satisfaction of the restrictions pursuant to Section 2 of this
Agreement, a share certificate without legend shall be delivered to you.
2. Restriction Period
The Committee has set a Restriction Period for the Common Shares subject

Committee permits otherwise, and pursuant to Sections 7 and 11 of the Plan, you

Restriction Period, which shall not be subject to any restrictions. Transfer of
these shares to you will be treated as payment of compensation to you, equal to

Restricted Period shall apply separately to each of the stated grant years as
detailed above. As provided in the Plan, the Committee may, at any time and for
any reason, accelerate the Restricted Period on these grants. The Committee also

all grants of Restricted Shares for all remaining years, as set forth
above; and
(ii) the Restricted Period applicable to the Participant's
Restricted Shares shall expire immediately and all such shares shall be
nonforfeitable and immediately transferable; and

same meanings as used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, except
that the terms shall exclude the Company, its Subsidiaries, any employee benefit
plan of the Company or any Subsidiary, employees of the Company or any
Subsidiary or any "group" of which any of the foregoing is a member).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a "Change in Control" shall not be deemed
to occur in the event the Company files for bankruptcy, liquidation or
reorganization under the United States Bankruptcy Code.

is any material change in the Participant's duties, compensation, reporting
obligations, location of employment, responsibilities and/or title, at any time
following a Change in Control, all Awards of Restricted Shares under this
agreement shall become immediately vested.

Restricted Shares for which the Restricted Period has not yet been satisfied,
the Award will be forfeited as of the Participant's date of termination.
However, if the Participant terminates employment as a result of his (i) death
or (ii) Disability, the Restricted Period with respect to grants of Restricted
Shares received in the current and prior years shall expire immediately upon the
Participant's termination of Employment and such Restricted Shares shall be
fully nonforfeitable; grants of Restricted Shares applicable to subsequent years
shall be forfeited as of the Participant's date of termination.

number of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement shall be proportionately
adjusted in accordance with the terms of that Section.
