Compensation.</font>&#160;&#160;At its meeting on June 10, 2008, the Personnel
&amp; Compensation Committee of the Kaman Corporation Board of Directors
approved payment of long-term incentive program ("LTIP") awards to the company's
named executive officers for the completed three-year performance period January
1, 2005 &#8211; December 31, 2007 (the "completed performance
period").&#160;&#160;&#160;LTIP awards are made under the terms of the company's
2003 Stock Incentive Plan and in accordance with the plan, the Committee
reviewed the company's actual financial performance compared to the average of
the companies comprising the Russell 2000 index for the same performance period
utilizing the following factors: three-year average return on investment
(weighted 40%), average annual growth in earnings per share weighted 40%), and
total three-year return to shareholders (weighted 20%).&#160;&#160;Financial
performance in the 1<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: super">st</font>
quartile results in no award payment; performance at the median results in an
award payment at 100% of target; and performance at the top of, or above, the
3<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: super">rd</font>
quartile results in a maximum payment of 200% of
target.&#160;&#160;Interpolation is used to determine payments for financial
performance between the quartiles</font></div><br><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">Based
upon the results of that review, the Committee determined that the award
percentage for the completed performance period was 181.4% of target and
approved the following payments (which were made in cash because each individual
meets his/her stock ownership guideline requirements) which are shown together
with a new total compensation figure to update the Summary Compensation Table
for Fiscal Year 2007 to include the LTIP payment:</font></div>

Non-Equity Incentive Plan
Compensation.
At its meeting on June 10, 2008, the Personnel
& Compensation Committee of the Kaman Corporation Board of Directors
approved payment of long-term incentive program ("LTIP") awards to the company's
named executive officers for the completed three-year performance period January
1, 2005 – December 31, 2007 (the "completed performance
period").   LTIP awards are made under the terms of the company's
2003 Stock Incentive Plan and in accordance with the plan, the Committee
reviewed the company's actual financial performance compared to the average of
the companies comprising the Russell 2000 index for the same performance period
utilizing the following factors: three-year average return on investment
(weighted 40%), average annual growth in earnings per share weighted 40%), and
total three-year return to shareholders (weighted 20%).  Financial
performance in the 1
st
quartile results in no award payment; performance at the median results in an
award payment at 100% of target; and performance at the top of, or above, the
3
rd
quartile results in a maximum payment of 200% of
target.  Interpolation is used to determine payments for financial
performance between the quartiles
Based
upon the results of that review, the Committee determined that the award
percentage for the completed performance period was 181.4% of target and
approved the following payments (which were made in cash because each individual
meets his/her stock ownership guideline requirements) which are shown together
with a new total compensation figure to update the Summary Compensation Table
for Fiscal Year 2007 to include the LTIP payment:

These
award amounts represent 98.5% of the estimated amounts disclosed by the company
in its 2008 proxy statement.  The amounts were estimated at that time
because the actual amounts were not then determinable.  As reported in
the Company's 2008 proxy statement, Mr. Kuhn retired from the company in
February 2008 and pursuant to the terms of his Executive Employment Agreement
(also discussed in the proxy statement), he is entitled to receive this LTIP
payment for the completed three year period as he was an employee for the entire
period.

and the Company shall compensate him for any lost wages or expenses associated
with such assistance and cooperation.

Employment Agreement and Change in Control Agreement
Mr.
Steiner would not be entitled to receive full severance benefits under both the
Employment Agreement and the Change in Control Agreement. A tax gross-up for
excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code (and income taxes
on the gross-up) that become payable by him would be paid only if payments
(including vesting of outstanding equity compensation awards) contingent on a
change in ownership or control of the Company exceed the maximum amount (as
determined under applicable tax rules) that he could receive without having any
such payments become subject to such tax by at least $100,000.
