NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS AND SHARE AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
NOTE 1
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
ITT Corporation is a diversified manufacturer of highly engineered critical components and customized technology solutions for the energy, transportation, and industrial markets. Unless the context otherwise indicates, references herein to “ITT,” “the Company,” and such words as “we,” “us,” and “our” include ITT Corporation and its subsidiaries. ITT operates through four segments: Industrial Process, consisting of industrial pumping and complementary equipment; Motion Technologies, consisting of friction and shock and vibration equipment; Interconnect Solutions, consisting of electronic connectors; and Control Technologies, consisting of fluid handling, motion control and vibration and shock isolation products. Financial information for our segments is presented in Note 3, “Segment Information.”
On October 31, 2011, ITT completed the tax-free spin-off of its Defense and Information Solutions business, Exelis Inc. (Exelis), and its water-related businesses, Xylem Inc. (Xylem) by way of a distribution of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Exelis common stock and Xylem common stock, on a pro rata basis, to ITT shareholders of record on October 17, 2011. This transaction is referred to in this Report as the “2011 spin-off.”
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. We consistently applied the accounting policies described in ITT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 ( 2014 Annual Report) in preparing these unaudited financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2014 Annual Report.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, asbestos-related liabilities and recoveries from insurers, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, deferred tax valuation allowances, projected benefit obligations for postretirement plans, accounting for business combinations, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment testing, environmental liabilities and recoveries from insurers, allowance for doubtful accounts and inventory valuation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
ITT's quarterly financial periods end on the Saturday closest to the last day of the calendar quarter, except for the last quarterly period of the fiscal year, which ends on December 31st. For ease of presentation, the quarterly financial statements included herein are described as ending on the last day of the calendar quarter.
NOTE 2
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (ASUs). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The amendments are based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The guidance also requires enhanced

6


disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. In April 2015, the FASB voted to propose a one-year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue standard. Under the proposal, the new guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of 2018. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. ITT is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments and the transition alternatives on ITT's financial statements.
NOTE 3
SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's segments are reported on the same basis used internally for evaluating performance and for allocating resources. Our four reportable segments are referred to as: Industrial Process, Motion Technologies, Interconnect Solutions and Control Technologies.
Industrial Process manufactures engineered fluid process equipment serving a diversified mix of customers in global infrastructure industries such as chemical, oil and gas, mining, and other industrial process markets and is a provider of plant optimization and efficiency solutions and aftermarket services and parts.
Motion Technologies manufactures brake components, shock absorbers and damping technologies for the global automotive, truck and trailer, public bus and rail transportation markets.
Interconnect Solutions manufactures and designs a wide range of highly engineered harsh environment connector solutions that make it possible to transfer signal and power between electronic devices which service global customers for the aerospace and defense, industrial and transportation, oil and gas, and medical markets.
Control Technologies manufactures specialized equipment, including actuation, valves, and noise and energy absorption components for the aerospace and defense, and industrial markets.
Corporate and Other consists of corporate office expenses including compensation, benefits, occupancy, depreciation, and other administrative costs, as well as charges related to certain matters, such as asbestos and environmental liabilities, that are managed at a corporate level and are not included in segment results when evaluating performance or allocating resources. Assets of the segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash, investments, asbestos-related receivables and certain property, plant and equipment.

2015 Industrial Process Restructuring Actions
In March 2015, we announced a series of restructuring actions in the Company's Industrial Process business related to a strategic reorganization of the business and to achieve efficiencies and reduce the overall cost structure. The company expects to incur pre-tax cash costs, principally involuntary severance costs of approximately $13 to $14 and other non-cash pre-tax costs of approximately $4 to $5 in aggregate related to this action. The costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 primarily relate to employee severance for approximately 200 planned headcount reductions. We expect to incur the remaining restructuring costs of approximately $8 to $10 over the next 6 months related to this action. The following table provides a rollforward of the restructuring accrual associated with the 2015 Industrial Process restructuring actions.

2013–2014 Interconnect Solutions Restructuring Actions
In 2013, we initiated a comprehensive restructuring plan to improve the overall cost structure of our Interconnect Solutions (ICS) segment, including the transition of certain production lines from one location to another existing lower cost manufacturing site. During the first quarter of 2015, we reversed $0.2 of a previously estimated restructuring liability and made cash payments of $3.4 , resulting in a remaining liability of $13.3 as of March 31, 2015. We do not expect to incur any additional charges related to this restructuring action.

NOTE 5
INCOME TAXES
For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized income tax expense of $18.1 and $13.0 , respectively, representing an effective tax rate of 31.9% and 27.5% . The higher effective tax rate in 2015 is primarily driven by a pre-tax loss from operations in Germany for which no income tax benefit is recorded. The Company continues to benefit from earnings eligible for the tax holiday in Korea, as well as a larger mix of earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions with favorable tax rates.
The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in several jurisdictions including Germany, Italy, Korea, the United Kingdom and the U.S. The U.S. federal income tax audit for the years 2009 through 2011 has received Joint Committee on Taxation review. We anticipate that we will receive the final audit report within the current year. The calculation of our tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits includes dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various tax jurisdictions. Due to the complexity of some uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit. The settlement of an examination could result in changes in amounts attributable to us through the Tax Matters Agreement entered into with Exelis, Inc. and Xylem, Inc. Over the next 12 months, the net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits in foreign and domestic jurisdictions could change by approximately $86.6 due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events.

The NQOs vest either on the completion of a three-year service period or annually in three equal installments, as determined by employee level, and have a ten-year expiration period. RSUs, TSR awards, and ROIC awards vest on the completion of a three-year service period.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , 0.1 and 0.5 stock options were exercised resulting in proceeds of $2.0 and $9.0 , respectively. In addition, restricted stock units of 0.2 vested and were issued during both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
The fair value of each NQO grant was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial lattice pricing model that incorporates multiple and variable assumptions over time, including assumptions such as employee exercise patterns, stock price volatility and changes in dividends.

NOTE 16
CAPITAL STOCK
On October 27, 2006, a three-year $1 billion share repurchase program was approved by our Board of Directors (2006 Share Repurchase Program). On December 16, 2008, the provisions of the share repurchase program were modified by our Board of Directors to replace the original three-year term with an indefinite term. We repurchased 2.0 shares of common stock for $80.0 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 under this program. We did not repurchase any shares of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2014. To date, under the 2006 Share Repurchase Program, the Company has repurchased 18.4 shares for $759.3 .
Separate from the 2006 Share Repurchase Program, the Company repurchased 0.1 shares and 0.1 shares for an aggregate price of $3.6 and $4.8 , during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of restricted stock units.
NOTE 17
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes and acquisitions or divestitures. We will continue to aggressively defend all such claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as our current reserves and insurance coverage, we do not expect that such legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on our financial statements, unless otherwise noted below.
Asbestos Matters
ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc., has been sued, along with many other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims generally allege that certain products sold by us or our subsidiaries prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. As of March 31, 2015 , there were 47 thousand pending active claims against ITT, including Goulds Pumps, filed in various state and federal courts alleging injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. Activity related to these asserted asbestos claims during the period was as follows:

(a)
Inactive claims represent pending claims in Mississippi filed in 2004 or prior, which have been excluded from our asbestos measurement because the plaintiffs cannot demonstrate a significant compensable loss. As such, management believes these claims have little-to-no value. There were no inactive claims dismissed or settled during the first quarter of 2015 or 2014 .
Frequently, plaintiffs are unable to identify any ITT or Goulds Pumps product as a source of asbestos exposure. Our experience to date is that a majority of resolved claims are dismissed without any payment from the Company. Management believes that a large majority of the pending claims have little or no value. In addition, because claims are sometimes dismissed in large groups, the average cost per resolved claim can fluctuate significantly from period to period. ITT expects more asbestos-related suits will be filed in the future, and ITT will continue to aggressively defend or seek a reasonable resolution, as appropriate.

14


Asbestos litigation is a unique form of litigation. Frequently, the plaintiff sues a large number of defendants and does not state a specific claim amount. After filing of the complaint, the plaintiff engages defendants in settlement negotiations to establish a settlement value based on certain criteria, including the number of defendants in the case. Rarely do the plaintiffs seek to collect all damages from one defendant. Rather, they seek to spread the liability, and thus the payments, among many defendants. As a result of this and other factors, the Company is unable to estimate the maximum potential exposure to pending claims and claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years.
Estimating our exposure to pending asbestos claims and those that may be filed in the future is subject to significant uncertainty and risk as there are multiple variables that can affect the timing, severity, quality, quantity and resolution of claims. Any predictions with respect to the variables impacting the estimate of the asbestos liability and related asset are subject to even greater uncertainty as the projection period lengthens. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, which additional costs may be material, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time.
The asbestos liability and related receivables reflect management's best estimate of future events. However, future events affecting the key factors and other variables for either the asbestos liability or the related receivables could cause actual costs or recoveries to be materially higher or lower than currently estimated. Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims which may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is not possible to predict the ultimate cost of resolving all pending and unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that future events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as well as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.
Income Statement Charges
As part of our ongoing review of our net asbestos exposure, each quarter we assess the most recent qualitative and quantitative data available for the key inputs and assumptions, comparing the data to the expectations on which the most recent annual liability and asset estimates were based. Based on this evaluation, the Company determined that no change in the estimate was warranted for the period ended March 31, 2015 other than the incremental accrual to maintain a rolling 10-year forecast period. The net asbestos charge for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was $15.4 and $15.8 , respectively.
Changes in Financial Position
The Company's estimated asbestos exposure, net of expected recoveries, for the resolution of all pending claims and claims estimated to be filed in the next 10 years was $758.3 and $746.8 as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

Environmental
In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. We are responsible, or are alleged to be responsible, for ongoing environmental investigation and site remediation. These sites are in various stages of investigation and/or remediation and in many of these proceedings our liability is considered de minimis. We have received notification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and from similar state and foreign environmental agencies, that a number of sites formerly or currently owned and/or operated by ITT, and other properties or water supplies that may be or have been impacted from those operations, contain disposed or recycled materials or wastes and require environmental investigation and/or remediation. These sites include instances where we have been identified as a potentially responsible party under federal and state environmental laws and regulations.

Executive Summary
During the first quarter of 2015, we recognized revenue of $588.7 reflecting a decrease of $85.8, or 12.7%, primarily related to the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of $50.6. On an organic basis, revenue was down 5.2% compared to the prior year, reflecting challenging conditions across the industrial and oil and gas markets. Revenue derived within the transportation market was also down slightly as weakness in the aerospace and defense markets was partially offset by revenue growth from strength in global OEM automotive brake pads.
Orders received during the first quarter of 2015 were $607.7 reflecting a decrease of $90.0, or 12.9%, including a $54.3 unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. Organic orders declined 5.1% primarily due to lower order activity for highly engineered project pumps related to challenging conditions within the oil and gas, chemical and industrial markets, as well as weak connector demand across all markets. The impact of these challenging

17


conditions was partially offset by our continued strength in gaining placement on new global OEM automotive platforms.
Operating income increased 19.9%, to $57.9, during the first quarter of 2015 versus the same prior year period. The higher operating income reflects lower restructuring costs, the benefit of past restructuring and Lean initiatives and focused cost containment efforts. These benefits outweighed the negative impacts from lower sales volume, operational disruptions at Interconnect Solutions associated with the relocation of certain operations to our facility in Nogales, Mexico, and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations.
Income from continuing operations during the first quarter of 2015 was $38.7, or $0.42 per diluted share, representing an increase of $5.5, or $0.06 per diluted share, reflecting higher pre-tax income and lower outstanding shares due to our first quarter 2015 share repurchases, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $59.9, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015, reflecting a $2.5, or 4.4% increase, over the prior year.
During the first quarter of 2015, we continued to make balanced and effective organic investments, geared towards expanding our brake pad production capacity and systems capabilities. We also returned capital of approximately $80 to shareholders through share repurchases, and increased our first quarter dividend by 7.5%, which represents the third straight year of dividend increases. We expect to complete an additional $20 of share repurchases during the remainder of 2015. In addition, we further deployed capital with our acquisition of Hartzell Aerospace in the beginning of the second quarter. This acquisition aligns with our focus to expand our aerospace solutions and complements our Control Technologies portfolio in various ways.

Industrial Process
Industrial Process revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $29.9 , or 10.5% , including an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $11.6. Organic revenue decreased $18.4, or 6.4%, primarily due to declines in volume that primarily related to the timing of certain shipments across all markets that moved into the second quarter of 2015. Revenue stemming from the oil and gas market was flat compared to the prior year, as project-related delays and poor market conditions principally in Asia, Latin America, and Russia, were offset by strength in North America and the Middle East from strong prior year order bookings. In addition, included within these markets we experienced higher year-over-year shipments of short-cycle baseline pumps due to a solid backlog entering 2015, as well as growth in our aftermarket parts and monitoring and controls products. However, a 29% decline in revenue related to the project pump business more than offset the strength in baseline pumps and the aftermarket business.
Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were $262.0 , reflecting a decrease of $34.9 , or 11.8% , including an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $14.0. Organic orders decreased $21.0, or 7.1%, primarily due to the oil and gas market softness and difficult prior year comparisons, which included multiple large-scale highly engineered pump project wins. Similarly, orders within the chemical and industrial markets decreased primarily due to market uncertainty and a large North American order that was received in the first quarter of 2014. Order growth stemming from aftermarket activity partially offset the overall decline.
The level of order and shipment activity related to engineered pumps can vary from period to period, which may affect the year-over-year comparisons. Backlog as of March 31, 2015 was $601.0, which is consistent with the December 31, 2014 balance, and includes a $9.1 unfavorable foreign currency translation impact.
Motion Technologies
Motion Technologies revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $26.6 , or 12.2% , as a result of an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $32.8. Organic revenue increased $6.2 or 2.8%, primarily reflecting strength in original equipment manufacturers (OEM) brake pads across all major geographic regions, associated with past platform wins that are now entering production. In addition, manufacturing efficiencies stemming from our Lean initiative have improved brake pad production rates to record levels for the Friction Technologies business. Sales to original equipment suppliers (OES) were relatively flat as strength in the U.S. and China were offset by a decline in Europe. Sales into the independent aftermarket channel decreased approximately 18% due to timing impacts from our customer's inventory management. Sales from our Koni business were down slightly, reflecting a decline in volume to the China rail market and European truck and trailer market, which was partially offset by sales growth within the U.S. defense market related to our placement on a U.S. military platform.
Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $26.5 , or 11.8% , as a result of unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts of $34.1. Organic orders increased $7.6, or 3.4%. Organic orders increased 3.0% at our Friction Technologies business related to our continued strength in winning OEM platforms, partially offset by lower aftermarket orders due to a customer order phasing. Organic orders increased 7.0% in our Koni business primarily due to the placement of our shock absorbers on a new European OEM platform, as well as year-over-year order growth stemming from the European bus market and with our FSD (frequency selective damping) shock absorber product line.
Interconnect Solutions
Interconnect Solutions revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased by $22.5 , or 22.5% , including an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $5.6. Organic revenue declined $16.9, or 16.9%, as sales volumes were down across all market categories. Weakness in the oil and gas and other strategic markets, declining revenue from end-of-life non-strategic connector platforms, and shipment delays due to operational disruptions from the relocation of certain production lines from our Santa Ana facility to our Nogales, Mexico facility were significant factors contributing to the overall decline in sales.
Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $20.6 , or 19.9% , including an unfavorable foreign exchange translation impact of $5.5. Organic orders decreased $15.1, or 14.6%, reflecting declines in our non-strategic end-of-life connector programs and demand within the aerospace, defense, and oil and gas connector markets.

19


Control Technologies
Control Technologies revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased by $7.1 , or 9.7% , including an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $0.5. Organic revenue declined $6.6, or 9.1%, reflecting lower sales at CT Aerospace of 11% and CT Industrial of 7%, each due to lower sales volume. Results from CT Aerospace reflect a number of factors, including the timing of order patterns in our commercial OEM business, program declines in our Enivate product line, a large prior year retro-fit program during the first quarter of 2014, as well as an aerospace aftermarket program that is reaching its end-of-life. Results from CT Industrial primarily reflect project delays in energy absorption projects in China and the overall weakness in the oil and gas market.
Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $8.4, or 11.3%, including an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact of $0.7. Organic orders decreased $7.7, or 10.4%, year-over-year, primarily due to a significant 2014 retro-fit aftermarket aerospace program, as well as softness in general industrial orders due to timing of infrastructure project starts, which were moved into the second quarter of 2015. In addition, the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro and the Yen has negatively impacted our orders within Europe and Japan.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased $8.0 or 14.5% mainly related to a decline in variable costs associated with sales volume.
General and administrative (G&A) expenses decreased $17.6 or 22.7%, reflecting benefits from past restructuring and Lean initiatives and focused cost control management efforts; lower restructuring costs of $6 (see Note 4, Restructuring Actions, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information); and benefits from certain non-recurring operational items, including repositioning-related costs of $3 incurred during 2014 (repositioning costs reflect certain charges incurred following the 2011 spin-off).
Research and development (R&D) expenses increased $0.6 or 3.4%, reflecting our continued investment in product development activities. Spending levels at each business segment were relatively consistent with those of the prior year.
Asbestos-related costs, net decreased $0.4 or 2.5% (see Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information). These costs are consistent with the prior year, as both periods reflect the recognition of net expenses to maintain our rolling 10-year projection of asbestos claims.

Industrial Process - operating income decreased $3.9 or 16.0%; operating margin decreased 50 basis points
The decrease in operating income and margin was primarily the result of restructuring actions initiated during the first quarter of 2015 resulting in an $8.0 decline in operating income, which were partially offset by the savings generated by these actions. Lower sales volumes and impacts from pricing pressures unfavorably impacted operating income by approximately $6, but were almost entirely offset by favorable transactional impacts from foreign currency, net savings from Lean, sourcing, and cost control initiatives, and $5 from a favorable product warranty resolution.
Motion Technologies - operating income increased $0.8 or 2.0%; operating margin increased 290 basis points
Benefits from higher sales volume and net savings from Lean and sourcing initiatives, including notable productivity improvements at our Wuxi, China facility, that were almost entirely offset by the impacts of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of approximately $7 and higher investment costs related to capacity expansion projects.
Interconnect Solutions - operating income increased $7.8 or 260%; operating margin increased 920 basis points
The increase in operating income reflects lower restructuring costs of $14.7 and the current period savings associated with prior year restructuring actions. Operating income was unfavorably impacted by approximately $12 due a decline in sales volume from challenging market conditions as well from shipment delays and incremental costs related to operational disruptions from the relocation of certain production lines from our Santa Ana facility to our Nogales, Mexico facility. In addition, operating income reflects benefits from changes in sales mix and net savings from Lean, sourcing, and cost control initiatives.
Control Technologies - operating income decreased $1.2 or 7.7%; operating margin increased 40 basis points
The decrease in operating income primarily stemmed from overall decreased sales volumes and an unfavorable change in sales mix, as well as higher strategic incremental investment costs. These items were partially offset by net savings from lean and sourcing initiatives and cost control management actions.
Other Corporate Costs - improved by $5.7 or 44.2%
The decline in other corporate costs reflects lower investment-related expenditures versus the prior year, principally the strengthening of our Human Resource capabilities that took place during 2014 and costs associated with a company-wide culture initiative that launched during the first quarter of 2014. In addition, other corporate costs improved due to lower departmental spending related to cost control actions, as well as favorable impacts in corporate-owned life insurance assets and lower expense for environmental-related matters.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE
For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized income tax expense of $18.1 and $13.0 , respectively, representing an effective tax rate of 31.9% and 27.5% . The higher effective tax rate in 2015 is primarily driven by a pre-tax loss from operations in Germany for which no income tax benefit is recorded. The Company continues to benefit from earnings eligible for the tax holiday in Korea, as well as a larger earnings mix in non-U.S. jurisdictions with favorable tax rates.
The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in several jurisdictions including Germany, Italy, Korea, the United Kingdom and the U.S. The U.S. federal income tax audit for the years 2009 through 2011 has received Joint Committee on Taxation review. We anticipate that we will receive the final audit report within the current year. The calculation of our tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits includes dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various tax jurisdictions. Due to the complexity of some uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit. The settlement of an examination could result in changes in amounts attributable to us through the Tax Matters Agreement entered into with Exelis and Xylem at the time of the 2011 spin-off. Over the next twelve months, the net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits in foreign and domestic jurisdictions could change by approximately $86.6 due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events.      
INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, NET OF TAX
For the three months ended March 31, 2015 the Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $3.4 principally relating to a tax audit in Germany associated with an entity that was part of the 2011 spin-off. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 the Company recognized a loss from discontinued operations of $1.0 due to costs incurred related to certain legacy liabilities.
LIQUIDITY
Funding and Liquidity Strategy
Our funding needs are monitored and strategies are executed to meet overall liquidity requirements, including the management of our capital structure on both a short- and long-term basis. We expect to fund our ongoing working capital, capital expenditures, dividends, and financing requirements through cash flows from operations and cash on hand or by accessing the commercial paper market. If our access to the commercial paper market were adversely affected, we believe that alternative sources of liquidity, including our 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement, described below, would be sufficient to meet our short-term funding requirements.
We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. We have identified and continue to look for opportunities to access cash balances in excess of local operating requirements to meet global liquidity needs in a cost-efficient manner. A majority of our cash and cash equivalents is held by our international subsidiaries. We have, and plan to, transfer cash between certain international subsidiaries and the U.S. and other international subsidiaries when it is cost effective to do so. Our intent is generally to indefinitely reinvest these funds outside of the U.S. consistent with our overall intention to support growth and expand in markets outside the U.S. through the development of products, increased non-U.S. capital spending, and potentially acquire foreign businesses. However, we have determined that certain undistributed foreign earnings generated in Luxembourg, Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea should not be considered permanently reinvested outside of the U.S. Net cash distributions from foreign countries amounted to $138.5 during 2014. There were no net cash distributions from foreign countries during the three months ended March 31, 2015 . The timing and amount of additional future remittances, if any, remains under evaluation.
The amount and timing of dividends payable on our common stock are within the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will be based on, and affected by, a number of factors, including our financial position and results of operations, available cash, expected capital spending plans, prevailing business conditions, and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to what level of dividends, if any, will be paid in the future. In the first quarter of 2015 , we declared a dividend of $0.1183 per share for shareholders of record on March 13, 2015, which was paid on April 1, 2015. The first quarter 2015 dividend reflects a 7.5% increase from the prior year.
Significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include our credit ratings, the adequacy of commercial paper and supporting bank lines of credit, and the ability to attract long-term capital on satisfactory

23


terms. We assess these factors along with current market conditions on a continuous basis, and as a result, may alter the mix of our short- and long-term financing when it is advantageous to do so.
We access the commercial paper market to supplement the cash flows generated internally to provide additional short-term funding for strategic investments and other funding requirements. We manage our short-term liquidity through the use of our commercial paper program by adjusting the level of commercial paper borrowings as opportunities to deploy additional capital arise and it is cost effective to do so. As of March 31, 2015 , we had an outstanding commercial paper balance of $113.5 and averaged an outstanding balance of $16.8 during the first quarter of 2015. There have been no other material changes that have impacted our funding and liquidity capabilities since December 31, 2014 .
Credit Facilities
On November 25, 2014, we refinanced our existing credit facility with a new five-year revolving $500 credit agreement (the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement). The 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement provides for increases in principal of up to $200 for a possible maximum total of $700 in aggregate principal amount, at the request of the Company and with the consent of the institutions providing such increased commitments. The 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement is intended to provide access to additional liquidity and be a source of alternate funding to the commercial paper program, if needed. Our policy is to maintain unused committed bank lines of credit in an amount greater than outstanding commercial paper balances. The provisions of the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement require that we maintain an interest coverage ratio, as defined, of at least 3.0 times and a leverage ratio, as defined, of not more than 3.0 times. At March 31, 2015, we had no amounts outstanding under the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement and our interest coverage ratio and leverage ratio were within the prescribed thresholds. In the event of certain ratings downgrades, the direct and indirect significant U.S. subsidiaries of the Company would be required to guarantee the obligations under the credit facility.
Sources and Uses of Liquidity
Our principal source of liquidity is our cash flow generated from operating activities, which provides us with the ability to meet the majority of our short-term funding requirements. The following table summarizes net cash derived from operating, investing, and financing activities from continuing operations, as well as net cash derived from discontinued operations, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , representing an increase of $21.4 , or 162.1% , from the prior year. Segment operating income provided approximately $3.5 of additional cash, after adjustment for non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization. Cash activity related to income tax payments, net of refunds, resulted in a net year-over-year increase to cash flow from operations of $9.7. Changes in working capital balances provided a year-over-year increase of $19.0, primarily relating to a favorable change in accounts receivable of $43.3 that was principally driven by differences in the timing of cash collections within Industrial Process. The benefit from accounts receivable was partially offset by a lower year-over-year cash flow benefit related to inventory of $21.9 primarily within Industrial Process.
Net cash used in investing activities was $40.0 reflecting an increase of $66.5 , primarily due to maturities of short-term investments (net of purchases) in the prior year that were $58.2 higher than during 2015. Additionally, capital expenditure spending increased year-over-year by $11.2 , or 58.9%, primarily within Interconnect Solutions, related to the implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system and the production move from our Santa Ana facility to Nogales, Mexico facility; and within Motion Technologies, related to capacity expansion projects.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $34.0 reflecting an increase of $37.4 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , primarily due to higher year-over-year net commercial paper borrowings of $124.5, which was partially offset by an increase in repurchases of ITT common stock of $78.0. Additionally, cash received from the exercise of employee stock options declined by $7.0.

Asbestos
Based on the estimated undiscounted asbestos liability as of March   31, 2015 for claims filed or estimated to be filed over the next 10 years, we have estimated that we will be able to recover approximately 38% of the asbestos indemnity and defense costs from our insurers. Actual insurance reimbursements may vary significantly from period to period and the anticipated recovery rate is expected to decline over time due to gaps in our insurance coverage, reflecting uninsured periods, the insolvency of certain insurers, prior settlements with our insurers, and our expectation that certain insurance policies will exhaust within the next 10 years. In the tenth year of our estimate, our insurance recoveries are currently projected to be 25%. Additionally, future recovery rates may be impacted by other factors, such as future insurance settlements, insolvencies, and judicial determinations relevant to our coverage program, which are difficult to predict and subject to a high degree of uncertainty.
While there are overall limits on the aggregate amount of insurance available to the Company with respect to asbestos claims, with respect to certain coverage, those overall limits were not reached by the estimated liability recorded by the Company at March 31, 2015.
Further, there is uncertainty in estimating when cash payments related to the recorded asbestos liability will be fully expended and such cash payments will continue for a number of years beyond the next 10 years due to the significant proportion of future claims included in the estimated asbestos liability and the delay between the date a claim is filed and when it is resolved. Subject to these inherent uncertainties, it is expected that cash payments related to pending claims and claims to be filed in the next 10 years will extend through approximately 2028.
Although asbestos cash outflows can vary significantly from year to year, our current net cash outflows, net of tax benefits, are projected to average $15 to $25 over the next five years, as compared to an average of $11 over the past three annual periods, and increase to an average of approximately $40 to $50 per year over the remainder of the projection period.
In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures and potential recoveries, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe that there is a reasonable basis for estimating the number of future claims, the nature of future claims, or the cost to resolve future claims for years beyond the next 10 years at this time. Accordingly, no liability or related asset has been recorded for any costs that may be incurred for claims asserted subsequent to 2025.
Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims that may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of the cost of resolving the pending and estimated unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that the future events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as well as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES
Management reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, orders growth, and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and management of assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dividends, and share repurchases. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators:
n “organic revenue” and “organic orders” are defined as revenue and orders, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations and acquisitions and divestitures made during the current year. Divestitures include sales of portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for presentation as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations is estimated using a fixed exchange rate for both the current and prior periods. A reconciliation of organic revenue from revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 is provided below.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 2 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for information on recent accounting pronouncements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of ITT's financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. ITT believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management's Discussion and Analysis in the 2014 Annual Report describes the critical accounting estimates that are used in preparation of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management's estimates. There have been no significant changes concerning ITT's critical accounting estimates as described in our 2014 Annual Report.
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There has been no material change in the information concerning market risk as stated in our 2014 Annual Report.
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.      OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes and acquisitions or divestitures. Descriptions of certain legal proceedings to which the Company is a party are contained in Note 17, "Commitments and Contingencies" to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report and are incorporated by reference herein. Such descriptions include the following recent developments:
Asbestos Proceedings
ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc., has been joined as a defendant with numerous other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims allege that certain of our products sold prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. Frequently, the plaintiffs are unable to identify any ITT or Goulds Pumps product as a source of asbestos exposure. In addition, a large majority of claims pending against the Company have been placed on inactive dockets because the plaintiff cannot demonstrate a significant compensable loss. Our experience to date is that a substantial portion of resolved claims have been dismissed without payment by the Company.
We record a liability for pending asbestos claims and asbestos claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. While it is probable that we will incur additional costs for future claims to be filed against the Company, a liability for potential future claims beyond the next 10 years is not reasonably estimable due to the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures and potential recoveries. As of March 31, 2015 , we have recorded an undiscounted asbestos-related liability for pending claims and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years of $1,226.4 , including expected legal fees, and an associated asset of $468.1 which represents estimated recoveries from insurers, resulting in a net asbestos exposure of $758.3 .

On October 27, 2006, our Board of Directors approved a three-year $1 billion share repurchase program (2006 Share Repurchase Program). On December 16, 2008, our Board of Directors modified the provisions of the 2006 Share Repurchase Program to replace the original three-year term with an indefinite term. As of March 31, 2015 , we had repurchased 18.4 shares for $759.3, including commissions, under the 2006 Share Repurchase Program. The program is consistent with our capital allocation process, which has centered on those investments necessary to grow our businesses organically and through acquisitions, while also providing cash returns to shareholders. Our strategy for cash flow utilization is to invest in our business, execute strategic acquisitions, pay dividends and repurchase common stock.

OTHER INFORMATION
Disclosure pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction & Syria Human Rights Act (ITRA)
This disclosure is made pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 which added subsection (r) to section 13 of the Exchange Act (Section 13(r)) requiring a public reporting issuer to disclose in its annual or quarterly reports whether it or any affiliates have knowingly engaged in specified activities or transactions relating to Iran, including activities conducted outside the United States by non-U.S. affiliates in compliance with local law.
In its 2012 Annual Report, ITT described its acquisition of all the shares of Bornemann in November 2012, as well as certain activities of Bornemann in Iran and the wind down of those activities in accordance with a General License issued on December 26, 2012 (the General License) by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). As permitted by the General License, on or before March 8, 2013, Bornemann completed the wind-down activities and ceased all activities in Iran. As required to be disclosed by Section 13(r), the gross revenues and operating income to Bornemann from its Iranian activities subsequent to its acquisition by ITT were Euros 2.2 million and Euros 1.5 million, respectively. Prior to its acquisition by ITT, Bornemann issued a performance bond to its Iranian customer in the amount of Euros 1.3 million (the Bond). Bornemann requested that the Bond be canceled prior to March 8, 2013; however, the former customer refused this request and as a result the Bond remains outstanding. Bornemann did not receive gross revenues or operating income, or pay interest, with respect to the performance bond in either 2014 or 2013, however, Bornemann did pay fees in 2014 and 2013 of approximately Euros 11 and 43 thousand, respectively to the German financial institution which is maintaining the performance bond.

ITT CORPORATION 2011 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of the 25 th day of February 2015 , by and between ITT Corporation (the “Company”) and _______________ (the “Participant”),
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Participant is now employed by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and in recognition of the Participant's valued services, the Company, through the Compensation and Personnel Committee of its Board of Directors (the “Committee”), desires to provide an opportunity for the Participant to receive a performance-based long-term incentive award, pursuant to the provisions of the ITT Corporation 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as approved by the Board of Directors on February 23, 2011 and effective May 11, 2011 (the “Plan”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein as part of this Agreement and which provides definitions for capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein, and any administrative rules and regulations related to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1.
Grant of Award and Performance Period . In accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Participant this performance unit award (the “Award”). A performance unit corresponds to the right to receive one Share, subject to the terms of the Award. The target number of performance units subject to this Award is _______________ (the “Target Units”). The actual number of performance units that will be settled under this Award will depend upon the achievement of the threshold performance goal described in Section 2 of this Agreement during the Performance Period, which for this Award commences January 1, 2015 and ends December 31, 2017 .
2.
Terms and Conditions . It is understood and agreed that this Award is subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)
Threshold Condition to Payout of Awards . Payment under this Award shall not be due and payable to the Grantee unless the Company earns a level of “Adjusted EBITDA” (as defined below) in any rolling consecutive four calendar quarter period during the Performance Period that exceeds $190 million (the “Threshold”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Adjusted EBITDA” means net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the impact of (a) asset write-downs, (b) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (c) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or provisions affecting reported results, (d) any reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) extraordinary nonrecurring items, (f) acquisitions or divestitures, and (g) foreign exchange gains and losses. If the Threshold is achieved, then the number of performance units due and payable to the Participant hereunder shall be a number equal to the number of Target Units set forth above multiplied by two. In the event of an Acceleration Event that constitutes a change of ownership or control (as determined under Section 162(m) of the Code) and that occurs during the Performance Period, the Threshold shall be deemed to have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee reserves the right, in the exercise of its total discretion, to reduce the number of performance units that shall be due and payable to the Participant hereunder.
(b)
Additional Factors . For guidance to the Committee in determining the level of the Award that may be paid hereunder, the Committee will take into account the “Performance Unit Award Payout” and other terms and conditions set forth below, but the Committee is not obligated to apply these factors in determining the actual amount of Awards payable. The “Performance Unit Award Payout” shall be the sum of the TSR Unit Payout and the ROIC Unit Payout, each as described below.
(i)
TSR Unit Payout . 50% of the Target Units shall be “TSR Target Units.” The performance units calculated with respect to the TSR Target Units shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:
TSR Unit Payout = Payout Factor X TSR Target Units
The “Payout Factor” is based on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (defined and measured as described below, the “TSR”) for the Performance Period relative to the TSR for





each company in the S&P 400 Capital Goods Index (“Peer Group”), determined in accordance with the following table:
If Company’s TSR rank against the
S&P 400 Capital Goods Index is
TSR Payout Factor
(% of TSR Target Units)
less than the 35 th  percentile
0%
at the 35 th  percentile
50%
at the 50 th  percentile
100%
at the 80 th  percentile or more
200%
The Payout Factor is interpolated for actual results between the 35 th  percentile and the 80 th  percentile shown above.
The term “Total Shareholder Return” for a particular Performance Period means the rate of return (expressed as a percentage) achieved with respect to the common stock of the Company and the common stock of each company in the Peer Group for such Performance Period. Total Shareholder Return includes the sum of two components:
The cumulative percentage change in the common stock price from the beginning of the Performance Period to the end of the Performance Period measured as the change between the average closing price of such common stock for the trading days occurring in the month ending December 31, 2014 and the month ending December 31, 2016; and
All dividends paid and any other extraordinary shareholder actions paid with respect to a share of common stock during such Performance Period are accumulated with assumed reinvestment in the common stock of the Company and divided by the average closing prices for the trading days occurring in the month ending December 31, 2014.
(ii)
ROIC Unit Payout . 50% of the Target Units shall be “ROIC Target Units.” The performance units calculated with respect to the ROIC Target Units shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:
ROIC Unit Payout = Payout Factor X ROIC Target Units
The “Payout Factor” is based on the Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) achieved during the final year of the Performance Period. ROIC refers to a percentage calculated by dividing (A) income from continuing operations attributable to the Company, adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact from special items, interest expense, and amortization expense from intangible assets by (B) average total assets of continuing operations, less asbestos-related assets (including deferred tax assets on asbestos-related matters) and non-interest bearing current liabilities for the five preceding quarterly periods, adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact from special items. Special items represent significant charges or credits that impact results, but may not be related to the Company’s ongoing operations and performance. The “Payout Factor” is determined in accordance with the following table:
Return on Invested Capital

ROIC Payout Factor
(% of ROIC Target Units)
X%
50%
X%
100%
X%
200%
The Payout Factor is interpolated between the actual ROIC results.
(c)
Form and Timing of Payment of Award . Payment with respect to an earned Performance Unit Award shall be made (i) as soon as practicable (but not later than March 15 th ) in the calendar year following the close of the Performance Period, and (ii) in Shares in an amount equal to the Performance Unit Award Payout, as determined under this Section 2, in each case subject to subsections 2(e) and 2(f).
(d)
Effect of Termination of Employment . Except as otherwise provided below (each provision of which is subject to the attainment of the Threshold and the Committee’s discretion), if the Participant’s





employment with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is terminated for any reason prior to the end of the Performance Period, any Award subject to this Agreement shall be immediately forfeited.
(i)
Termination due to Death or Disability . If the Participant’s termination of employment is due to death or Disability (as defined below), the Award shall vest and will be payable at the time and in the form as provided in subsection 2(c) above and shall be based on the performance criteria set forth in subsection 2(b) above as measured for the entire Performance Period.
(ii)
Termination due to Early Retirement . If the Participant’s termination of employment is due to Early Retirement (as defined below), then a prorated portion of the Award shall vest in accordance with the provisions of this subsection and will be payable at the time and in the form as provided in subsection 2(c) above. The prorated portion of the Award that vests due to termination of the Participant's employment due to Early Retirement shall be determined by multiplying (i) the Performance Unit Award Payout determined pursuant to subsection 2(b) above for the entire Performance Period, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months the Participant has been continually employed since the beginning of the Performance Period and the denominator of which is 36. For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the commencement of the Performance Period.
(iii)
Termination by the Company for Other than Cause . If the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company (or an Affiliate of the Company, as the case may be) for other than Cause, a prorated portion of the Award shall vest in accordance with the provisions of this subsection and will be payable at the time and in the form as provided in subsection 2(c) above. The prorated portion of the Award that vests due to termination of the Participant's employment by the Company for other than cause shall be determined by multiplying (i) the Performance Unit Award Payout determined pursuant to subsection 2(b) above for the entire Performance Period, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months the Participant has been continually employed since the beginning of the Performance Period and the denominator of which is 36. For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the commencement of the Performance Period. The term “Cause” shall means “cause” as defined in any employment agreement then in effect between the Participant and the Company, or if not defined therein, or if there is no such agreement, the Participant’s (a) embezzlement, misappropriation of corporate funds, or other material acts of dishonesty; (b) commission or conviction of any felony, or of any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to any felony or misdemeanor; (c) engagement in any activity that the Participant knows or should know could harm the business or reputation of the Company or an affiliate; (d) material failure to adhere to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ corporate codes, policies or procedures as in effect from time to time; (e) willful failure to perform the Participant’s assigned duties, repeated absenteeism or tardiness, insubordination, or the refusal or failure to comply with the directions or instructions of the Participant’s supervisor, as determined by the Company or an affiliate; (f) violation of any statutory, contractual, or common law duty or obligation to the Company or an affiliate, including, without limitation, the duty of loyalty; (g) the Participant’s violation of any of the applicable provisions of subsection 2(i) of this Agreement; or (h) material breach of any confidentiality or non-competition covenant entered into between the Participant and the Company or an affiliate. The determination of the existence of Cause shall be made by the Company in good faith, and such determination shall be conclusive for purposes of this Agreement.
(iv)
Termination Due to Normal Retirement .
(A)
After First 12 Months. If the Participant’s separation from service is due to Normal Retirement (as defined below), and the separation from service occurs at least twelve (12) months after the first day of the Performance Period, the Award shall vest and will be payable in the amount determined pursuant to subsection 2(b) at the time and in the form as provided in subsection 2(c) above.
(B)
Within First 12 Months. If the Participant’s separation from service is due to Normal Retirement, and the separation from service occurs within the first twelve (12) months of the Performance Period, then a prorated portion of the Award shall vest in accordance with the provisions of this subsection and will be payable at the





time and in the form as provided in subsection 2(c) above. The prorated portion of the Award that vests in accordance with the previous sentence shall be determined by multiplying (i) the Performance Unit Award Payout determined pursuant to subsection 2(b) above for the entire Performance Period, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months the Participant has been continually employed since the beginning of the Performance Period and the denominator of which is 12. For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the commencement of the Performance Period.
(v)
Early and Normal Retirement . For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Early Retirement” shall mean any termination of the Participant’s employment (other than a Normal Retirement) after the date the Participant attains age 55 and completes 10 or more years of Effective Service (as such term is defined in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees). The term “Normal Retirement” shall mean any termination of the Participant’s employment after (A) the date the Participant attains age 62 and completes 10 or more years of Effective Service (as such term is defined in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees) or, if earlier, (B) the date the Participant attains age 65.
(vi)
Disability . For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Disability” shall mean the complete and permanent inability of the Participant to perform all of his or her duties under the terms of his or her employment, as determined by the Committee upon the basis of such evidence, including independent medical reports and data, as the Committee deems appropriate or necessary.

(i)
Vesting . Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary other than subsection 2(f)(i) (but subject to attainment of the Threshold to the extent required as described above and the Committee’s discretion), if, during the Performance Period, the Participant’s employment is terminated on or within two (2) years after an Acceleration Event (A) by the Company (or an Affiliate, as the case may be) for other than Cause, as defined herein, and not because of the Participant’s Early or Normal Retirement, Disability, or death, or (B) by the Participant because of Good Reason, then the Award shall become fully vested and valued as provided below in this subsection 2(e) and shall be paid at the time specified in subsection 2(c).
(ii)
Payment Amount . Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the value of the Performance Unit Award Payout payable under this subsection 2(e) shall be equal to the greater of (A) the “most recent share price” multiplied by the sum of (I) 50% of the Target Units multiplied by the TSR Payout Factor for the “most recent performance period” and (II) 50% of the Target Units multiplied by the ROIC Payout Factor for the “most recent performance period” or (B) the “most recent share price” multiplied by the Target Units. For this purpose, “most recent share price” means the market price of a Share on the date of the Acceleration Event, and “most recent performance period” means the performance period with respect to a similar performance-based award of the Company that most recently ended before the termination of employment.
(iii)
Good Reason . For this purpose, the term “Good Reason” shall mean (A) without the Participant’s express written consent and excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company or its affiliates within 30 days after receipt of notice thereof given by the Participant, (I) a reduction in the Participant’s annual base compensation (whether or not deferred), (II) the assignment to the Participant of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with the Participant’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities, or (III) any other action by the Company or its affiliates that results in a material diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities; or (B) without the Participant’s express written consent, the Company’s requiring the Participant’s primary work location to be other than within twenty-five (25) miles of the location where the Participant was principally working immediately prior to the Acceleration Event; provided, that “Good Reason” shall cease to exist for an event on the 90th day following the later of its occurrence or the Participant’s knowledge thereof, unless the Participant has given the Company notice thereof prior to such date.





(f)
Other Payments After an Acceleration Event.
(i)
Going Private Transaction . If an Acceleration Event occurs that constitutes a change in control under Section 409A of the Code and any related regulations or other effective guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) and, immediately following the Acceleration Event the common stock of the Company (or, if applicable, its successor) is not publicly traded, the Award shall immediately become 100% vested as of the date of the Acceleration Event and be settled in cash on such date in the amount described in clause (iii) below.
(ii)
Other Acceleration Event . If clause (i) above does not apply and a Performance Period ends after the occurrence of an Acceleration Event, then, notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary (except as provided in subsection 2(e), and subject to attainment of the Threshold to the extent required as described above and the Committee’s discretion), the Award shall be settled at the time provided in subsection 2(c) in the amount determined under clause (iii) below.

2015 NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of the 25th day of February, 2015 , by and between ITT Corporation (the “Company”) and _______________ (the “Optionee”),
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Optionee is now employed by the Company or an Affiliate (as defined in the Company’s 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)) as an employee, and in recognition of the Optionee’s valued services, the Company, through the Compensation and Personnel Committee of its Board of Directors (the “Committee”), desires to provide an opportunity for the Optionee to acquire or enlarge stock ownership in the Company, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as part of this Agreement and which provides definitions for capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein, and any administrative rules and regulations related to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1.
Grant of Options . In accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company hereby confirms the grant on February 25, 2015 , (the “Grant Date”) to the Optionee of the option to purchase from the Company all or any part of an aggregate of _______________ Shares (the “Option”), at the purchase price of $41.52 per Share (the “Option Price” or “Exercise Price”). The Option shall be a Nonqualified Stock Option.
2.
Terms and Conditions . It is understood and agreed that the Option is subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)
Expiration Date . The Option shall expire on February 25, 2025, or, if the Optionee’s employment terminates before that date, on the date specified in subsection (f) below.
(b)
Exercise of Option . The Option may be exercised at any time to the extent it has vested until the date it expires under the terms of this Agreement.
(c)
Vesting . Subject to subsections 2(a) and 2(f), the Option shall vest in full upon February 25, 2018 .
(d)
Payment of Exercise Price . Permissible methods for payment of the Exercise Price upon exercise of the Option are described in Section 6.6 of the Plan, or, if the Plan is amended, successor provisions. In addition to the methods of exercise permitted by Section 6.6 of the Plan, the Optionee may exercise all or part of the Option by way of (i) broker-assisted cashless exercise in a manner consistent with the Federal Reserve Board's Regulation T, unless the Committee determines that such exercise method is prohibited by law, or (ii) net-settlement, whereby the Optionee directs the Company to withhold Shares that otherwise would be issued upon exercise of the Option having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of the exercise equal to the Exercise Price, or the portion thereof being exercised by way of net-settlement (rounding up to the nearest whole Share).
(e)
Tax Withholding . The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Optionee to remit to the Company, all applicable federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to the exercise of the Option. The Optionee may elect to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares that otherwise would be issued upon exercise of the Option, with the number of Shares withheld having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction (rounding up to the nearest whole Share). Any such election shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.





(f)
Effect of Termination of Employment .
If the Optionee’s employment terminates before February 25, 2025, the Option shall expire on the date set forth below, as applicable:
(i)
Termination due to Death . If the Optionee’s employment is terminated as a result of the Optionee’s death, the Option shall expire on the earlier of February 25, 2025 , or the date three years after the termination of the Optionee’s employment due to death. If the Option is not vested at the time of the Optionee's termination of employment due to death, the Option shall immediately become 100% vested.
(ii)
Termination due to Disability . If the Optionee’s employment is terminated as a result of the Optionee’s Disability (as defined below), the Option shall expire on the earlier of February 25, 2025, or the date five years after the termination of the Optionee’s employment due to Disability. If the Option is not vested at the time of the termination of the Optionee's employment due to Disability, the Option shall immediately become 100% vested.
(iii)
Termination due to Early Retirement . If the Optionee's employment is terminated as a result of the Optionee's Early Retirement (as defined below), then the Option shall expire on the earlier of February 25, 2025, or the date five years after the termination of the Optionee's employment due to Early Retirement. If the Optionee’s employment is terminated as a result of the Optionee’s Early Retirement and the Option is not vested at the time of the such termination, then a prorated portion of the Option shall immediately vest as of the date of the termination of employment in accordance with the terms of this subsection. The portion of an Option that shall be vested upon termination of employment due to the Optionee's Early Retirement (if the Option is not yet fully vested) shall be determined by multiplying the total number of Shares subject to such Option by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months the Optionee has been continually employed since the Grant Date and the denominator of which is 36 . For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the Grant Date, not calendar months. Any remaining unvested portion of the Option shall expire as of the date of the termination of the Optionee's employment.
(iv)
Termination due to Normal Retirement . If the Optionee's employment is terminated as a result of the Optionee's Normal Retirement (as defined below), the Option shall expire on the earlier of February 25, 2025, or the date five years after the termination of the Optionee's employment due to Normal Retirement. If the Optionee’s separation from service is due to Normal Retirement (as defined below), and the separation from service occurs at least twelve (12) months after the Grant Date, the Option shall immediately become 100% vested as of such separation from service. If the Optionee’s separation from service is due to Normal Retirement and the separation from service occurs within the twelve (12) month period beginning on the Grant Date, a prorated portion of the Option shall immediately vest as of such separation from service determined by multiplying the total number of Shares subject to such Option by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months the Optionee has been continually employed since the Grant Date and the denominator of which is 12 . For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the Grant Date, not calendar months.
(v)
Cause . If the Optionee’s employment is terminated by the Company (or an Affiliate, as the case may be) for Cause (as determined by the Committee), the Option (whether vested or unvested) shall expire on the date of the termination of the Optionee’s employment. For this purpose, “Cause” shall means “cause” as defined in any employment agreement then in effect between the Optionee and the Company, or if not defined therein, or if there is no such agreement, the Optionee’s (a) embezzlement, misappropriation of corporate funds, or other material acts of dishonesty; (b) commission or conviction of any felony, or of any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to any felony or misdemeanor; (c) engagement in any activity that the Optionee knows or should know could harm the business or reputation of the Company or an affiliate; (d) material failure to adhere to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ corporate codes, policies or procedures as in effect from time to time; (e) willful failure to perform the Optionee’s assigned duties, repeated absenteeism or tardiness, insubordination, or the refusal or failure to comply with the directions or instructions of the Optionee’s supervisor, as determined by the Company or an affiliate; (f) violation of any statutory, contractual, or common law duty or obligation to the Company or





an affiliate, including, without limitation, the duty of loyalty; (g) the Optionee’s violation of any of the applicable provisions of subsection 2(h) of this Agreement; or (h) material breach of any confidentiality or non-competition covenant entered into between the Optionee and the Company or an affiliate. The determination of the existence of Cause shall be made by the Company in good faith, and such determination shall be conclusive for purposes of this Agreement.
(vi)
Voluntary Termination . If the Optionee’s employment is terminated by the Optionee and not because of the Optionee’s Early or Normal Retirement, Disability or death, the vested portion of the Option shall expire on the earlier of February 25, 2025, or the date three months after the termination of the Optionee’s employment. Any portion of the Option that is not vested (or the entire Option, if no part was vested) as of the date the Optionee’s employment so terminates shall expire immediately on the date of termination of employment, and such unvested portion of the Option (the entire Option, if no portion was vested on the date of termination) shall not thereafter be exercisable.
(vii)
Other Termination by the Company . If the Optionee’s employment is terminated by the Company (or an Affiliate, as the case may be) for other than Cause (as determined by the Committee), and not because of the Optionee’s Early or Normal Retirement, Disability or death, the vested portion of the Option, if any, shall expire on the earlier of February 25, 2025, or the date three months after the termination of the Optionee’s employment. For this purpose, the vested portion of such an Optionee’s Option shall be determined on a prorated basis, and the prorated portion of an Option that vests upon such termination of employment shall be determined by multiplying the total number of Shares subject to such Option by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months the Optionee has been continually employed since the Grant Date and the denominator of which is 36 . For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the Grant Date, not calendar months. Any portion of the Option that is not vested (or the entire Option, if no part was vested) as of the date the Optionee’s employment terminates shall expire immediately on the date of termination of employment, and such unvested portion of the Option (the entire Option, if no portion was vested on the date of termination) shall not thereafter be exercisable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Optionee’s employment is terminated on or within two (2) years after an Acceleration Event (A) by the Company (or an Affiliate, as the case may be) for other than Cause (as defined herein), and not because of the Optionee’s Early or Normal Retirement, Disability, or death, or (B) by the Optionee for Good Reason, then the Option shall in no event expire before the earlier of the date that is five (5) years after the Acceleration Event or February 25, 2025 . For this purpose, the term “Good Reason” shall mean (i) without the Optionee’s express written consent and excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company or its affiliates within 30 days after receipt of notice thereof given by the Optionee, (a) a reduction in the Optionee’s annual base compensation (whether or not deferred), (b) the assignment to the Optionee of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with the Optionee’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities, or (c) any other action by the Company or its affiliates that results in a material diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities; or (ii) without the Optionee’s express written consent, the Company’s requiring the Optionee’s primary work location to be other than within twenty-five (25) miles of the location where the Optionee was principally working immediately prior to the Acceleration Event; provided, that “Good Reason” shall cease to exist for an event on the 90th day following the later of its occurrence or the Optionee’s knowledge thereof, unless the Optionee has given the Company notice thereof prior to such date. If the Option is not vested at the time of the Optionee’s termination after an Acceleration Event, the Option shall immediately become 100% vested.
Early and Normal Retirement . For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Early Retirement” shall mean any termination of the Optionee’s employment (other than a Normal Retirement) after the date the Optionee attains age 55 and completes 10 or more years of Effective Service (as such term is defined in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan). The term “Normal Retirement” shall mean any termination of the Optionee’s employment after (A) the date the Optionee attains age 62 and completes 10 or more years of Effective Service (as such term is defined in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan) or, if earlier, (B) the date the Optionee attains age 65.





Disability . For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Disability” shall mean the complete and permanent inability of the Optionee to perform all of his or her duties under the terms of his or her employment, as determined by the Committee upon the basis of such evidence, including independent medical reports and data, as the Committee deems appropriate or necessary.
(g)
Compliance with Laws and Regulations . The Option shall not be exercised at any time when its exercise or the delivery of Shares hereunder would be in violation of any law, rule, or regulation that the Company may find to be valid and applicable.
(h)
Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Non-Disparagement. In consideration of the Company entering into this Agreement with the Optionee, the Optionee agrees as follows:
(i)
During Optionee’s employment with the Company (which, for purposes of this subsection (h) includes its affiliates), Optionee will not, directly or indirectly, except for on behalf of the Company or except with the prior written approval of ITT Corporation (“ITT”), either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, member, corporate officer, director or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the Company’s business or products, or to its actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, nor will Optionee engage in any other activities that conflict with Optionee’s employment obligations to the Company, where such activities (other employment, occupations, consulting, business activities, commitments, anticipated research or development, or conflicts) violate ITT’s Code of Conduct. Activities and commitments as used herein do not include passive investments in stocks or other financial instruments.
(ii)
For a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of Optionee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Optionee agrees that Optionee will not, directly or indirectly, except with the Company’s prior written approval, voluntarily or involuntarily, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, member, corporate officer, director or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the Company’s business or products, or to its actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development. For the purposes of this subparagraph, “competitive activity” shall mean perform services for, have an interest in, be employed by, or do business with (including as a consultant), any person, firm, or corporation engaged in the same or a similar business as the Company’s within the geographic territories in which the Company has transacted business for the twelve (12) months prior to Optionee’s termination of employment. Optionee further agrees that Optionee will not engage in any actions to divert or take away any customer or supplier of the Company, seek to reduce the amount of business performed or engaged in by the Company with any customer or supplier, or provide services to, or assist in any manner any competitor, or otherwise compete with the Company in the development, manufacture, sale or licensing of any products or services competitive with the products or services developed or marketed by the Company.
(iii)
Throughout his or her term of employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the Optionee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Optionee shall not, directly or indirectly, divert or attempt to divert or assist others in diverting any business of the Company by soliciting, contacting or communicating with any customer or supplier of the Company with whom the Optionee has direct or indirect contact or upon termination of employment has had direct or indirect contact during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Optionee’s date of termination with the Company.
(iv)
For a period of twelve (12) months following Optionee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Optionee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, attempt to induce or assist others in attempting to induce any employee of the Company with whom the Optionee has worked or had material contact with, during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the termination of the Optionee’s employment, to leave the employment of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or to accept employment or affiliation with (including as a consultant) any other company or firm of which the Optionee becomes an employee, owner, partner or consultant.
(v)
The Optionee agrees that throughout Optionee’s term of employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of Optionee’s employment for any





reason, Optionee will not make any statements, orally or in writing, cause to be published, or in any way disseminate any information concerning the Company or any subsidiaries of the Company concerning the Company’s business, business operations or business practices that in any way, in form or substance, harms, disparages or otherwise casts an unfavorable light upon the Company or any subsidiaries of the Company or upon any of their reputations or standing in the business community or the community as a whole.
(vi)
If the Optionee violates the terms of this subsection (h), then, in addition to any other remedy the Company might have, the Option shall immediately expire, no amount shall be due to the Optionee under this Agreement and the Optionee shall be required to repay to the Company all amounts and Shares paid under this Agreement (or proceeds therefrom).
(i)
Optionee Bound by Plan and Rules . The Optionee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and this Agreement and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof as amended from time to time.

(k)
Severability . Any term or provision of this Agreement that is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction and such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified by such court so that it is enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law.

EXHIBIT 10.03

ITT CORPORATION
2011 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of the 25th day of February, 2015 , by and between ITT Corporation (the “Company”) and _______________ (the “Grantee”),
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Grantee is now employed by the Company or an Affiliate (as defined in the Company’s 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)) as an employee, and in recognition of the Grantee’s valued services, the Company, through the Compensation and Personnel Committee of its Board of Directors (the “Committee”), desires to provide an inducement to remain in service of the Company and as an incentive for increased efforts during such service pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as part of this Agreement and which provides definitions for capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein, and any administrative rules and regulations related to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1.
Grant of Restricted Stock Units . In accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company hereby confirms the grant on February 25, 2015 (the “Grant Date”) to the Grantee of _______________ Restricted Stock Units. The Restricted Stock Units are notional units of measurement corresponding to Shares of common stock ( i.e ., one Restricted Stock Unit is equivalent in value to one Share).
The Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded, unsecured right to receive Shares (and dividend equivalent payments pursuant Section 2(b) hereof) in the future if the conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement are satisfied.
2.
Terms and Conditions . It is understood and agreed that the Restricted Stock Units are subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)
Restrictions . Except as otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement, neither this Award nor any Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award may be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, transferred, hypothecated or encumbered, other than to the Company as a result of forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units.
(b)
Voting and Dividend Equivalent Rights. The Grantee shall not have any privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, including without limitation any right to vote Shares or to receive dividends. Dividend equivalents shall be earned with respect to each Restricted Stock Unit that vests. The amount of dividend equivalents earned with respect to each such Restricted Stock Unit that vests shall be equal to the total dividends declared on a Share where the record date of the dividend is between the Grant Date of this Award and the date this Award is settled. Any dividend equivalents earned shall be paid in cash to the Grantee when the Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units are issued. No dividend equivalents shall be earned or paid with respect to any Restricted Stock Units that do not vest. Dividend equivalents shall not accrue interest.
(c)
Vesting of Restricted Stock Units and Payment .
(i)
Threshold Condition to Payout of Awards . The RSUs shall not be due and payable to the Grantee unless the Company earns a level of “Adjusted EBITDA” (as defined below) in any rolling consecutive four calendar quarter period during the “Performance Period” that exceeds $190 million (the “Threshold”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Adjusted EBITDA” means net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the impact of (a) asset write-downs, (b) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (c) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or provisions affecting reported





results, (d) any reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) extraordinary nonrecurring items, (f) acquisitions or divestitures, and (g) foreign exchange gains and losses. The “Performance Period” begins on January 1, 2015, and ends on the earlier of (A) December 31, 2017, or (B) December 31 of the year in which the Grantee separates from service. In the event of an Acceleration Event that constitutes a change of ownership or control (as determined under Section 162(m) of the Code) and that occurs during the Performance Period, the Threshold shall be deemed to have been satisfied.
(ii)
Additional Vesting Requirements . Subject to earlier vesting pursuant to subsection 2(d) below (and achievement of the Threshold), the Restricted Stock Units shall vest (meaning the Period of Restriction shall lapse and the Restricted Stock Units shall become free of the forfeiture provisions in this Agreement) on February 25, 2018, provided the Grantee has been continuously employed by the Company or an Affiliate on a full-time basis from the Grant Date through the date the Restricted Stock Units vest. For the avoidance of doubt, continuous employment of a Grantee by the Company or an Affiliate for purposes of vesting in the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall include continuous employment with the Company for so long as the Grantee continues working at such entity.
(iii)
Payment of the Award . Except as provided in subsection 2(j) below, as soon as practicable after the date the Restricted Stock Units vest (including vesting upon a separation from service pursuant to subsection 2(d) below), the Company will deliver to the Grantee (A) one Share for each vested Restricted Stock Unit, with any fractional Shares resulting from proration pursuant to subsection 2(d) to be rounded to the nearest whole Share (with 0.5 to be rounded up) and (B) an amount in cash attributable to any dividend equivalents earned in accordance with subsection 2(b) above, in the case of (A) and (B) less any Shares or cash withheld in accordance with subsection 2(e) below. In the case of a payment on account of a separation from service, if the Threshold has not been achieved prior to the Grantee’s separation from service but is achieved within the Performance Period, payment of vested RSUs shall be made as soon as practicable after the achievement of the Threshold, subject to subsection 2(j) below.
(iv)
Payment after Acceleration Event . If, prior to the payment date, Shares cease to exist as a result of an Acceleration Event and this Award is not assumed, converted, or otherwise replaced with a comparable award, the RSUs shall be settled in cash instead of Shares, and the amount of cash paid on the settlement date specified in this Agreement shall equal the sum of (A) the Fair Market Value of one Share multiplied by the number of vested RSUs, plus (B) the dividend equivalents described herein. For this purpose, “Fair Market Value” shall be the fair market value on the date of the Acceleration Event. However, if the Acceleration Event constitutes a change in control under Section 409A of the Code and any related regulations or other effective guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) and, immediately following the Acceleration Event the common stock of the Company (or, if applicable, its successor) is not publicly traded, the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately become 100% vested as of the date of the Acceleration Event and be settled on such date.
(d)
Effect of Termination of Employment . If the Grantee's employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated for any reason and such termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested at the time of such separation from service shall be immediately forfeited except as follows:
(i)
Separation from Service due to Death or Disability . If the Grantee's separation from service is due to death or Disability (as defined below), the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately become 100% vested as of such separation from service. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Disability” shall mean the complete and permanent inability of the Grantee to perform all of his or her duties under the terms of his or her employment, as determined by the Committee upon the basis of such evidence, including independent medical reports and data, as the Committee deems appropriate or necessary.
(ii)
Separation from Service due to Early Retirement or Separation from Service by the Company for Other than Cause . If the Grantee's separation from service is due to Early Retirement (as defined below) or an involuntary separation from service by the Company (or an Affiliate, as the case may be) for other than Cause (other than as specified in (iv), below), a prorated





portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest as of such separation from service. For these purposes,
(A)
the prorated portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall be determined by multiplying the total number of Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months during which the Grantee has been continually employed since the Grant Date (not to exceed 36 in the aggregate) and the denominator of which is 36 (for avoidance of doubt, the period during which the Grantee may receive severance in the form of salary continuation or otherwise shall not affect the determination of the date of the Grantee’s separation from service or the date this award is settled); and
(B)
full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the Grant Date, not calendar months.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Early Retirement” shall mean any termination (other than a Normal Retirement) of the Grantee’s employment after the date the Grantee attains age 55 and completes 10 or more years of Effective Service (as such term is defined in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan). The term “Cause” shall means “cause” as defined in any employment agreement then in effect between the Grantee and the Company, or if not defined therein, or if there is no such agreement, the Grantee’s (a) embezzlement, misappropriation of corporate funds, or other material acts of dishonesty; (b) commission or conviction of any felony, or of any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to any felony or misdemeanor; (c) engagement in any activity that the Grantee knows or should know could harm the business or reputation of the Company or an affiliate; (d) material failure to adhere to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ corporate codes, policies or procedures as in effect from time to time; (e) willful failure to perform the Grantee’s assigned duties, repeated absenteeism or tardiness, insubordination, or the refusal or failure to comply with the directions or instructions of the Grantee’s supervisor, as determined by the Company or an affiliate; (f) violation of any statutory, contractual, or common law duty or obligation to the Company or an affiliate, including, without limitation, the duty of loyalty; (g) the Grantee’s violation of any of the applicable provisions of subsection 2(h) of this Agreement; or (h) material breach of any confidentiality or non-competition covenant entered into between the Grantee and the Company or an affiliate. The determination of the existence of Cause shall be made by the Company in good faith, and such determination shall be conclusive for purposes of this Agreement.
(iii)
Separation from Service Due to Normal Retirement . If the Grantee’s separation from service is due to Normal Retirement (as defined below), and the separation from service occurs at least twelve (12) months after the Grant Date, the Grantee’s Restricted Stock Units shall immediately become 100% vested as of such separation from service. If the Grantee’s separation from service is due to Normal Retirement and the separation from service occurs within the twelve (12) month period beginning on the Grant Date, a prorated portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest as of such separation from service in an amount equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units granted herein multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months in such twelve (12) month period that were completed before the Grantee’s separation and the denominator of which is twelve (12). For this purpose, full months of employment shall be based on monthly anniversaries of the Grant Date, not calendar months.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Normal Retirement” shall mean any termination of the Grantee’s employment after (A) the date the Grantee attains age 62 and completes 10 or more years of Effective Service (as such term is defined in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan) or, if earlier, (B) the date the Grantee attains age 65.
(iv)
Separation from Service After an Acceleration Event . If the Grantee’s employment is terminated on or within two (2) years after an Acceleration Event (A) by the Company (or an Affiliate, as the case may be) for other than Cause, as defined herein, and not because of the Grantee’s Early or Normal Retirement, Disability, or death, or (B) by the Grantee because of Good Reason, then any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall immediately become 100% vested. For this purpose, the term “Good Reason” shall mean (i) without the Grantee’s express written consent and excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company or its affiliates within 30 days





after receipt of notice thereof given by the Grantee, (a) a reduction in the Grantee’s annual base compensation (whether or not deferred), (b) the assignment to the Grantee of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with the Grantee’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities, or (c) any other action by the Company or its affiliates that results in a material diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities; or (ii) without the Grantee’s express written consent, the Company’s requiring the Grantee’s primary work location to be other than within twenty-five (25) miles of the location where the Grantee was principally working immediately prior to the Acceleration Event; provided, that “Good Reason” shall cease to exist for an event on the 90th day following the later of its occurrence or the Grantee’s knowledge thereof, unless the Grantee has given the Company notice thereof prior to such date.
(e)
Tax Withholding . In accordance with Article 15 of the Plan, the Company may make such provisions and take such actions as it may deem necessary for the withholding of all applicable taxes attributable to the Restricted Stock Units and any related dividend equivalents.
(f)
Grantee Bound by Plan and Rules . The Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and this Agreement and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof. The Grantee agrees to be bound by any rules and regulations for administering the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee prior to the date the Restricted Stock Units vest. The Committee shall be authorized to make all necessary interpretations concerning the provisions of this Agreement and the proper application of those provisions to particular fact patterns, including but not limited to the basis for the Grantee’s termination of employment, and any such interpretation shall be final. Terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall be as defined in the Plan.
(g)
Governing Law . This Agreement is issued, and the Restricted Stock Units evidenced hereby are granted, in White Plains, New York, and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.
(h)
Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Non-Disparagement. In consideration of the Company entering into this Agreement with the Grantee, the Grantee agrees as follows:
(i)
During Grantee’s employment with the Company (which, for purposes of this subsection (h) includes its affiliates), Grantee will not, directly or indirectly, except for on behalf of the Company or except with the prior written approval of ITT Corporation (“ITT”), either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, member, corporate officer, director or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the Company’s business or products, or to its actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, nor will Grantee engage in any other activities that conflict with Grantee’s employment obligations to the Company, where such activities (other employment, occupations, consulting, business activities, commitments, anticipated research or development, or conflicts) violate ITT’s Code of Conduct. Activities and commitments as used herein do not include passive investments in stocks or other financial instruments.
(ii)
For a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of Grantee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Grantee agrees that Grantee will not, directly or indirectly, except with the Company’s prior written approval, voluntarily or involuntarily, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, member, corporate officer, director or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the Company’s business or products, or to its actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development. For the purposes of this subparagraph, “competitive activity” shall mean perform services for, have an interest in, be employed by, or do business with (including as a consultant), any person, firm, or corporation engaged in the same or a similar business as the Company’s within the geographic territories in which the Company has transacted business for the twelve (12) months prior to Grantee’s termination of employment. Grantee further agrees that Grantee will not engage in any actions to divert or take away any customer or supplier of the Company, seek to reduce the amount of business performed or engaged in by the Company with any customer or supplier, or provide services to, or assist in any manner any competitor, or otherwise compete with the Company in the





development, manufacture, sale or licensing of any products or services competitive with the products or services developed or marketed by the Company.
(iii)
Throughout his or her term of employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Grantee shall not, directly or indirectly, divert or attempt to divert or assist others in diverting any business of the Company by soliciting, contacting or communicating with any customer or supplier of the Company with whom the Grantee has direct or indirect contact or upon termination of employment has had direct or indirect contact during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Grantee’s date of termination with the Company.
(iv)
For a period of twelve (12) months following Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Grantee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, attempt to induce or assist others in attempting to induce any employee of the Company with whom the Grantee has worked or had material contact with, during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the termination of the Grantee’s employment, to leave the employment of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or to accept employment or affiliation with (including as a consultant) any other company or firm of which the Grantee becomes an employee, owner, partner or consultant.
(v)
The Grantee agrees that throughout Grantee’s term of employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of Grantee’s employment for any reason, Grantee will not make any statements, orally or in writing, cause to be published, or in any way disseminate any information concerning the Company or any subsidiaries of the Company concerning the Company’s business, business operations or business practices that in any way, in form or substance, harms, disparages or otherwise casts an unfavorable light upon the Company or any subsidiaries of the Company or upon any of their reputations or standing in the business community or the community as a whole.
(vi)
If the Grantee violates the terms of this subsection (h), then, in addition to any other remedy the Company might have, no amount shall be due to the Grantee under this Agreement and the Grantee shall be required to repay to the Company all amounts and Shares paid under this Agreement (or proceeds therefrom).
(i)
Severability . Any term or provision of this Agreement that is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction and such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified by such court so that it is enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(j)
Section 409A Compliance . To the extent applicable, it is intended that the Plan and this Agreement comply with the requirements of Section 409A, and the Plan and this Agreement shall be interpreted accordingly.
(i)
If it is determined that all or a portion of the Award constitutes deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A, and if the Grantee is a “specified employee,” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, at the time of the Grantee’s separation from service, then, to the extent required under Section 409A, any Shares that would otherwise be distributed (along with the cash value of all dividend equivalents that would be payable) upon the Grantee’s separation from service shall instead be delivered (and, in the case of the dividend equivalents, paid) on the earlier of (x) the first business day of the seventh month following the date of the Grantee’s separation from service or (y) the Grantee’s death.
(ii)
It is intended that this Agreement shall comply with the provisions of Section 409A, or an exception to Section 409A, to the extent applicable, so as not to subject the Grantee to the payment of interest and taxes under Section 409A.
