DOVER CORPORATION

PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL

This statement is furnished to the stockholders of Dover Corporation (the
"COMPANY" or "DOVER"), whose principal executive offices are at 280 Park Avenue,
New York, NY 10017, in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board
of Directors for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "MEETING") to be
held on April 19, 2005 or any adjournments thereof, for the purposes set forth
in the notice of meeting. Dover will pay the reasonable and actual costs of
soliciting proxies, but no amount will be paid to any officer or employee of
Dover or its subsidiaries as compensation for soliciting proxies. In addition to
solicitation by mail, Dover has retained Morrow & Co. to solicit brokerage
houses and other custodians, nominees or fiduciaries and to send proxies and
proxy material to the beneficial owners of such shares, at a fee of $12,000 plus
expenses. This statement and the proxy form are being first sent to the
stockholders on or about March 14, 2005.

As of the close of business on February 28, 2005, the record date for
determining stockholders eligible to vote at the Meeting, Dover had outstanding
203,697,833 shares of common stock. Each share of common stock is entitled to
one vote on all matters.

DOVER HAS PROVIDED TO EACH PERSON SOLICITED HEREIN A COPY OF DOVER'S 2004
ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
(THE "SEC") (INCLUDING THE FINANCIAL SCHEDULES THERETO BUT WITHOUT THE EXHIBITS)
AS PART OF DOVER'S ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS FOR 2004. DOVER WILL FURNISH
ANY EXHIBIT TO DOVER'S 2004 ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K TO ANY PERSON SOLICITED
HEREIN UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND PAYMENT OF A REASONABLE FEE AS DOVER MAY SPECIFY
TO COVER DOVER'S EXPENSES IN PROVIDING THE EXHIBIT. REQUESTS FOR EXHIBITS SHOULD
BE DIRECTED TO THE CORPORATE SECRETARY AT DOVER CORPORATION, 280 PARK AVENUE,
NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10017.

The shares covered by each proxy will be voted for the election of the
eleven nominees for director (or their substitutes as indicated below) unless
directed otherwise in the proxy, in which case the shares will be voted as
directed. The proxy also grants discretionary authority to the persons named as
proxies in connection with other matters that may properly come before the
Meeting to the full extent allowed by the rules under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), as amended, and any other applicable rules and
regulations.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in determining whether a
quorum exists at the Meeting. The election of directors requires a plurality of
shares of common stock present in person or by proxy at the Meeting and entitled
to vote thereon. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes. All other matters
will require the majority of shares of common stock present in person or by
proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. In determining whether a
proposal specified in the notice of meeting has received the requisite number of
affirmative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as
votes against the proposal, except with respect to the election of directors
where abstentions and broker non-votes will result in the respective nominees
receiving fewer votes but will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

A person giving a proxy by mail, by telephone or by the internet may revoke
it at any time before it is exercised, by giving written notice to the Corporate
Secretary of Dover at the address referred to above or by attending the Meeting
and requesting in writing the cancellation of the proxy.

Equity compensation plans not
approved by stockholders.......... -- -- --
Total............................... 12,584,584 $33.42 5,135,186

The Company has two compensation plans under which equity securities of the
Company have been authorized for issuance and have been issued to employees: the
1995 Incentive Stock Option Plan and 1995 Cash Performance Program (the "1995
PLAN"), which expired on January 30, 2005, but under which options remain
outstanding, and the 2005 Equity and Cash Incentive Plan (the "2005 PLAN"),
which became effective on February 1, 2005 and replaced the 1995 Plan. The
Company also has the 1996 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Compensation Plan under
which equity securities of the Company have been authorized for issuance and
have been issued to non-employee directors. The Company's 1984 Incentive Stock
Option Plan and Cash Performance Program expired in January 1995 and all
outstanding options expired during 2004.

DEF 14A 6th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 6th
THE 1995 INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN AND 1995 CASH PERFORMANCE PROGRAM

The Company's 1995 Plan was adopted in 1995 (replacing the 1984 Plan which
expired in January 1995) and provided for stock options, restricted stock awards
and cash performance awards. The 1995 Plan expired in January 2005 and was
replaced by the 2005 Plan.

The 1995 Plan was intended to promote the medium-term and long-term success
of Dover by providing salaried officers and other key employees of Dover and its
subsidiaries with medium-range and long-range inducements to remain with Dover
and to encourage them to increase their efforts to make Dover successful. As of
December 31, 2004, there were outstanding options for 12,584,584 shares under
the 1995 Plan.

THE 2005 EQUITY AND CASH INCENTIVE PLAN

The 2005 Plan was adopted in 2004, effective February 1, 2005, replacing
the 1995 Plan. The 2005 Plan provides for stock option grants, and restricted
stock and cash incentive awards.

Salaried officers and other key employees of Dover and its subsidiaries who
are in a position to affect materially the profitability and growth of Dover and
its subsidiaries and on whom major responsibility rests for the present and
future success of Dover are eligible to participate in the 2005 Plan. Directors
of Dover are not eligible under the 2005 Plan as directors, but are eligible if
they are also officers of Dover. Similar to the 1995 Plan, the 2005 Plan is
intended to provide these key employees with medium-range and long-range
inducements to remain with Dover and to encourage them to increase their efforts
to make Dover and its subsidiaries successful.

A maximum aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock is reserved for
issuance under the 2005 Plan pursuant to grants of stock options or the issuance
of restricted shares during the 10-year term of the 2005 Plan. Of the shares
authorized for issuance under the 2005 Plan, only a maximum aggregate of 5% of
the shares may be granted as restricted shares. Options granted under the 2005
Plan may be either non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options within
the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code ("ISOS"). Grants and
awards may be made by the Compensation Committee at any time or from time to
time on or after February 1, 2005 and before January 31, 2015, provided that no
ISOs may be granted after February 11, 2014.

No single recipient may be granted options for more than 600,000 shares in
any year. Options have a term not exceeding ten years and become exercisable
after not less than three years. The option exercise price for shares covered by
any option will be fixed by the Compensation Committee and may be equal to or
more than (but not less than) the "fair market value" of such shares on the date
the option is granted. Generally, stock options are not transferable, except
that non-qualified options may be transferred to members of the holder's
immediate family (or a trust for the benefit of one or more of such family
members), but any such transferred option cannot be further transferred by the
transferee during the transferee's lifetime.

Restricted stock may be awarded to employees as determined by the
Compensation Committee subject to the aggregate maximum of 5% of the 2005 Plan's
shares described above. The Compensation Committee determines the vesting
period, of not less than one year or more than five years, with respect to a
restricted stock award and whether other restrictions, including any performance
criteria, will be applicable with respect to the restricted stock award. The
Compensation Committee also determines whether a holder of restricted stock will
be entitled to exercise voting rights with respect to such restricted stock and
whether dividends payable with respect to restricted stock will be distributed
in cash to the holder of such stock when paid or at a later time or will be
reinvested in additional shares of restricted stock for the account of the
holder of such restricted stock. Generally, shares of restricted stock are not
transferable, and may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered,
except as otherwise provided in the applicable award.

THE 1996 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS' STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN

Under the Dover Corporation 1996 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Compensation
Plan as amended effective November 4, 2004 (the "DIRECTORS' PLAN"), non-employee
Directors receive annual compensation in
4

DEF 14A 7th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 7th
an amount set from time to time by the Board, payable partly in cash and partly
in common stock as such allocations may be adjusted from time to time by the
Board of Directors, subject to the limitation set forth in the Directors' Plan
on the maximum number of shares that may be granted to any Director in any year
(10,000 shares). For 2003 and 2004, annual compensation was set at $90,000,
payable 25% in cash and 75% in common stock. For 2004, the annual compensation
of $90,000 was paid by $22,500 in cash and 1,628 shares of common stock, based
on the fair market value of common stock on November 15, 2004.

On November 4, 2004, the Board of Directors of Dover approved the
recommendations of its Compensation Committee to (1) increase the annual
compensation of non-employee directors from $90,000 to $120,000, effective
January 1, 2005, and (2) decrease the percentage of such compensation paid in
stock from 75% to 60%, with a corresponding increase in the amount of such
compensation paid in cash from 25% to 40%.

If any Director serves for less than a full calendar year, the compensation
to be paid to that Director for the year will be prorated as deemed appropriate
by the Compensation Committee. The number of shares granted to any Director is
determined by dividing the dollar amount of the Director's annual compensation
to be paid in Shares by the "fair market value" of a share on the date of grant.
The "fair market value" is determined in good faith by the Compensation
Committee on the basis of such considerations as the Committee deems
appropriate, including, for example, the closing price on the date of grant or
the average of the high and low sales prices on the date of grant. Shares
granted under the Directors' Plan may be treasury shares or newly issued shares
but in either case they will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the
"NYSE").

1. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The persons named as proxies will vote the shares covered by a proxy for
the election as Directors of the eleven nominees listed below unless directed
otherwise in the proxy, in which case the shares will be voted as directed.
Votes may be cast only for the nominees listed below. If any such nominee for
election is not for any reason a candidate for election at the Meeting, an event
which management does not anticipate, the proxies will be voted for a substitute
nominee or nominees as may be designated by the Board of Directors and for the
others named below. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast.
All the nominees are presently Directors. Each Director elected at the Meeting
will serve until the election and qualification of his or her successor.

During 2004, the Board of Directors held four regular meetings and one
special meeting. The Board has three standing committees, namely an Audit
Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Governance and Nominating Committee.
The Board had an Executive Committee until February 2004 when it was

meetings of the Board of Directors and the standing committees of which he or
she was a member, except Mr. Benson who attended more than 65% of such meetings.

The Audit Committee is currently composed of five Directors, all of whom
satisfy all the criteria for being "independent" members of the Board and the
Audit Committee established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") and the NYSE Listing Standards, and also the Company's Standards for
Classification as an Independent Director (the "DOVER INDEPENDENCE STANDARDS")
which are set forth below on page 9 and available on the Company's website at
HTTP://WWW.DOVERCORPORATION.COM. In addition, the Board of Directors has
determined that all members of the Audit Committee qualify as "audit committee
financial experts" as defined in the applicable SEC rules. The primary functions
of the Audit Committee consist of: selecting, engaging and overseeing the work
of the Company's independent auditors; approving in advance all services to be
provided by, and all fees to be paid to, the Company's independent auditors, who
report directly to the Committee; reviewing with management and such auditors
the audit plan and results of the auditing engagement; and reviewing with
management and the Company's independent auditors the

Bernard G. Rethore and (since February 10, 2005) Mary A. Winston.

The Compensation Committee is composed of four Directors, all of whom
satisfy all the criteria for being "independent" members of the Board
established in the NYSE Listing Standards and the Dover Independence Standards.
The Compensation Committee, together with the other independent directors,
approves compensation for the chief executive officer. The Compensation
Committee also approves compensation for other executive officers, grants awards
and payouts under the 2005 Plan, approves changes to the compensation plans and
supervises the administration of the compensation plans. See the Compensation

HTTP://WWW.DOVERCORPORATION.COM and in print to any shareholder who requests it.
Requests should be directed to the Corporate Secretary at Dover Corporation, 280
Park Avenue, New York, NY 10017. In 2004, the Compensation Committee held four
meetings. The members of the Compensation Committee are Richard K. Lochridge
(Chair), Jean-Pierre M. Ergas, Kristiane C. Graham and (since February 10, 2005)
Robert W. Cremin.

The Governance and Nominating Committee is composed of three Directors, all
of whom satisfy all the criteria for being "independent," as established in the
NYSE Listing Standards and the Dover Independence Standards. The Governance and
Nominating Committee develops and recommends to the Board corporate governance
principles for the Company. In addition, the Governance and Nominating Committee
identifies and recommends to the Board candidates for election as Directors and
any changes it believes desirable in the size and composition of the Board, and
also makes recommendations to the Board concerning the structure and membership
of the Board's committees. The Governance and Nominating Committee's
responsibilities, authority and resources are described in greater detail in its
written charter, which is available on the Company's website at
HTTP://WWW.DOVERCORPORATION.COM and in print to any shareholder who requests it.
Requests should be directed to the Corporate Secretary at Dover Corporation, 280
Park Avenue, New York, NY 10017. The Governance and Nominating Committee held
four meetings in 2004. The members of the Governance and Nominating Committee
are James L. Koley (Chair), David H. Benson and Kristiane C. Graham.

The Company does not require Directors to attend the annual meeting of
stockholders. Directors generally do not, and in 2004 did not, attend the annual
meeting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Since its inception, the Company has set high standards of business ethics,
and has had the expectation that the conduct of its operations and its
executives would demonstrate a commitment to high moral, legal and ethical
principles. This has been evident in a number of ways.

First, the Board of Directors has set a high standard for corporate
governance and has had Corporate Governance Guidelines in place for over ten
years. For at least the past ten years, the majority of Directors has qualified
as independent under standards in effect at the time. Currently, there is only
one management representative on the Board, Mr. Hoffman, and two former
management Board members: Mr. Reece, who was Chief Executive Officer until
December 31, 2004, and Mr. Roubos, who was the Chief Executive Officer until May
1994 and Chairman of the Board until April 1999. Mr. Roubos will retire from the
board after this annual meeting. Since 2002, non-management directors have met
in conjunction with Board meetings to discuss issues of Board governance and
oversight without any management representatives present.

DEF 14A 10th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 10th
Second, the Compensation Committee, since its inception in 1993, has been
composed entirely of non-management independent Directors. This Committee has
routinely hired and worked directly with an outside compensation consultant to
evaluate overall compensation arrangements for senior executives and managers,
and to satisfy itself that these arrangements are both competitive and
consistent with shareholders' interests.

Third, a majority of the Audit Committee members has always been
independent. Since May 1, 2001, all members have been independent. This
Committee has routinely met with both the auditors and management separately to
assess the effectiveness of the independent audit process. Since the third
quarter of 2002, the Audit Committee Chair or another member of the Audit
Committee has participated in meetings with management and the Company's
independent auditors in the process of reviewing both earnings releases and
public filings immediately prior to the release and filing of such information.
Two such meetings are held each quarter by the Disclosure Controls & Procedures
Committee, which includes as its members the Chief Financial Officer, the
Controller and the General Counsel of Dover, as well as the Chief Financial
Officers of the Company's segment subsidiaries (the "DC&P COMMITTEE"). One
meeting takes place before the Company's release of earnings and is for the
purpose of reviewing the earnings release and the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures. The second meeting takes place shortly before the filing of its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the Annual Report on Form 10-K and is for the
purpose of discussing the contents of the quarterly or annual report, as the
case may be, and the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Both meetings
are attended by the Chair of the Audit Committee (by delegation of the Audit
Committee) or another member of the Audit Committee designated by the Chair, and
the Company's independent auditors, who review the Company's earnings releases
and reports before the meetings and discuss them with management at the
meetings. The Audit Committee as a whole meets and reviews the Annual Report on
Form 10-K (including financials) prior to its filing with the SEC.

Fourth, the Company's headquarters, each of its four segment subsidiary
offices (six such offices beginning January 1, 2005) and all operating companies
have had written codes of conduct for a number of years, as well as appropriate
conflict of interest policies, with annual verification, as part of their normal
business operations.

Fifth, each segment subsidiary for the past several years has routinely
conducted annual internal control and compliance reviews of select operating
companies, with the objective of reviewing and improving operating companies'
internal control environments and overall compliance levels. The results of
these activities have periodically been reported to the Audit Committee as part
of its normal financial review process.

Sixth, over the years, in addition to their normal Board meeting
attendance, independent Directors have been encouraged to attend the regular
board and company presidents' meetings of the segment subsidiaries. The
independent Directors have been very active in this regard. At least one
independent Director serves on the board of each of the six segment
subsidiaries, and at least one independent Director usually attends the segment
subsidiaries' regular board and company presidents' meetings.

Seventh, since PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was first engaged as the
Company's independent auditors, representatives of that firm have been invited
to attend operating company presidents', business review and strategy meetings
during the year. During 2004, one or more representatives attended several such
meetings.

In light of the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "SO ACT"),
as well as companion actions taken by the NYSE and the SEC, the Company has
continued to evaluate its compliance with overall corporate governance
consistent with these developments. The Board of Directors, its various
committees and management have reviewed the requirements of the SO Act, the
rules of the SEC and the NYSE's new Listing Standards regarding corporate
governance policy and procedure, have taken appropriate action, and have
determined that the Company is currently in compliance with such rules and
Listing Standards.

The Board of Directors has adopted written Corporate Governance Guidelines,
an updated Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for the Dover group as a whole,
and a Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial
Officers, as well as charters for each of its standing committees. These
documents are available on the Company's website at
HTTP://WWW.DOVERCORPORATION.COM, and are also available in print to

DEF 14A 11th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 11th
any shareholder who requests them. Requests should be directed to the Corporate
Secretary at Dover Corporation, 280 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10017.

As discussed above, in accordance with the NYSE Listing Standards, the
Company's non-management Directors meet at regularly scheduled executive
sessions without management. Mr. Koley, the Chair of the Governance and
Nominating Committee, presides at these sessions.

The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures requiring
pre-approval of all services performed by the Company's independent auditors.
These policies and procedures are described below on page 24. The Audit
Committee has also adopted a Policy Regarding Hiring From Independent Auditors
and the Board has adopted the Dover Standards for Director Independence, both of
which are available on the Company's website.

In accordance with the SO Act, the Audit Committee has established
procedures for (i) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding
accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters ("ACCOUNTING
MATTERS"), and (ii) the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of
concerns regarding questionable Accounting Matters. Such complaints or concerns
may be submitted to the Company, care of the Corporate Secretary, or through the
Communications Coordinator, an external service provider (the "COMMUNICATIONS
COORDINATOR"), via mail or a toll-free hotline at 1-800-495-1775 for calls made
from within the U.S., Canada and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and via a toll call to
1-770-582-5268 from all other places. Mail inquiries submitted through the
Communications Coordinator may be addressed as follows: The Network Call Center,
Attn: Dover Corporation Account Manager, 333 Research Court, Norcross, Georgia
30092. The Network will forward such communications to the Chair of the Audit
Committee and Dover's General Counsel, in each case without disclosing the
identity of the sender if anonymity is requested. Shareholders and other
interested persons may also communicate with the Board and the non-management
Directors in any of these same manners. Such communications will be forwarded to
the Chair of the Governance and Nominating Committee and Dover's General
Counsel.

The Board has determined that all members of the Board, except for Thomas
L. Reece, who was formerly a management representative, and Ronald L. Hoffman,
who is the current management representative on the Board, meet the Dover
Standards for Director Independence.

DOVER INDEPENDENCE STANDARDS

In order for a Dover Director to qualify as independent for purposes of the
NYSE rules, the Dover Board must affirmatively determine that the Director has
no material relationship with Dover and its subsidiaries (either directly or as
a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship
with Dover or its subsidiaries). The Board has determined that individuals who
satisfy the following standards shall be deemed independent per se for purposes
of Board membership, although additional eligibility standards may exist with
respect to a specific Board committee. The Board may amend these standards from
time to time in its discretion or for consistency with then applicable NYSE
standards. In February 2005, the Board modified its prior standards in light of
amendments to the NYSE standards. In the following list, the term "Dover" means
Dover and its consolidated subsidiaries. "Current" means being an executive,
employee or partner at the time of determination of independence.

1. The Director is not and has not been, within the prior three years, an
employee of Dover (excluding service as an interim chairman, CEO or executive
officer of Dover).

2. No member of the Director's immediate family is or has been, within the
prior three years, an executive officer of Dover Corporation (excluding service
as an interim chairman, CEO or executive officer of Dover).

3. The Director has not received, during any twelve-month period within
the prior three years, more than $100,000 in direct compensation from Dover or
any of its subsidiaries (other than director or committee fees, pension and
other deferred compensation for prior services not contingent on continued
service).

DEF 14A 12th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 12th
4. No member of the Director's immediate family has received, during any
twelve-month period within the prior three years, more than $100,000 in direct
compensation from Dover or any of its subsidiaries (other than compensation
received for services as a non-executive employee of Dover or pension or other
deferred compensation for prior services not contingent on continued service).

5. The Director is not a current partner or a current employee of Dover's
external auditor (or, if Dover has engaged a third party to provide internal
auditing services, such internal auditor) and was not within the last three
years a partner or employee of Dover's external auditor (or, if Dover has
engaged a third party to provide internal auditing services, such internal
auditor) who personally worked on Dover's audit and, in the case that Dover has
changed its independent auditors within the prior three years, such former
auditors.

6. No member of the Director's immediate family is a current partner of
Dover's external auditor (or, if Dover has engaged a third party to provide
internal auditing services, such internal auditor) or a current employee of
Dover's external auditor (or, if Dover has engaged a third party to provide
internal auditing services, such internal auditor) who participates in such
auditor's audit, assurance or tax compliance (but not tax planning) practice, or
was within the last three years a partner or employee of Dover's external
auditor (or, if Dover has engaged a third party to provide internal auditing
services, such internal auditor) who personally worked on Dover's audit and, in
the case that Dover has changed its independent auditors within the prior three
years, such former auditors.

7. Neither the Director nor any member of the Director's immediate family
is, or has been within the last three years, employed as an executive officer of
a company during the same period that any of Dover's current executive officers
serves or served on the compensation committee of that company.

8. The Director is not a current employee of a company that has made
payments to, or received payments from, Dover for property or services in an
amount which, in any of the three most recent fiscal years, exceeds the greater
of $1 million or 2% of such other company's consolidated gross revenues.

9. No member of the Director's immediate family is a current executive
officer of a company that has made payments to, or received payments from, Dover
for property or services in an amount that, in any of the three most recent
fiscal years, exceeds the greater of $1 million or 2% of such other company's
consolidated gross revenues.

10. The Director does not serve as an executive officer in any tax exempt
organization to which Dover has made contributions in any single fiscal year
within the last three years in an amount that exceeds the greater of $1 million
or 2% of such tax exempt organization's consolidated gross revenues.

QUALIFICATIONS AND NOMINATIONS OF DIRECTORS

The Governance and Nominating Committee considers and recommends to the
Board of Directors nominees for election to, or for filling any vacancy on, the
Board in accordance with the Company's by-laws and the Committee's charter. The
Committee annually reviews the requisite skills and characteristics of Board
members as well as the size, composition, functioning and needs of the Board as
a whole. To be considered for Board membership, a nominee for director must be
an individual who has the highest personal and professional integrity, who has
demonstrated exceptional ability and judgment, and who shall be most effective,
in conjunction with the other nominees to the Board, in collectively serving the
long-term interests of the stockholders. The Committee also considers members'
qualifications as independent, the financial literacy of members of the Audit
Committee, the qualification of at least one member of the Audit Committee as an
"audit committee financial expert", and the diversity, skills, background and
experiences of Board members in the context of the needs of the Board.

The Governance and Nominating Committee may also consider such other
factors as it may deem to be in the best interests of the Company and its
stockholders. The Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines do require that at
least two thirds of the Board must meet the criteria for independence
established by the NYSE and any applicable SEC rules. The Board also believes it
appropriate for at least one key member of the Company's management to
participate as a member of the Board. In appropriate circumstances, this number
may be increased to two.
10

DEF 14A 13th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 13th
Whenever the Committee concludes, based on the reviews or considerations
described above or due to a vacancy, that a new nominee to the Board is required
or advisable, it will consider recommendations from Directors, management,
stockholders and, if it deems appropriate, consultants retained for that
purpose. In such circumstances, it will evaluate individuals recommended by
stockholders in the same manner as nominees recommended from other sources.
Stockholders who wish to recommend an individual for nomination should send that
person's name and supporting information to the Committee, care of the Corporate
Secretary, or through the Company's Communications Coordinator. Stockholders who
wish to directly nominate an individual for election as a director, without
going through the Governance and Nominating Committee or using the Company's
proxy material, must comply with the procedures in the Company's by-laws.

All of the nominees for Director for election at this Annual Meeting
currently serve on the Board and are being proposed by the Board.

DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION

Management Directors receive no compensation for services as a Director or
as a member of any Committee. Under the Directors' Plan, non-employee Directors
receive annual compensation in an amount set from time to time by the Board,
payable partly in cash and partly in common stock, subject to adjustment by the
Board of Directors of the compensation amount and allocation and the Directors'
Plan's limitations on the maximum number of shares that may be granted to any
Director. Annual compensation for 2004 was $90,000, payable 25% in cash and 75%
in common stock, and was paid by $22,500 in cash and 1,628 shares, based on the
fair market value of common stock on November 15, 2004. On November 4, 2004, the
Board of Directors of Dover Corporation approved the recommendations of its
Compensation Committee to (1) increase the annual compensation of non-employee
directors from $90,000 to $120,000, effective January 1, 2005 and (2) decrease
the percentage of such compensation paid in stock from 75% to 60% with a
corresponding increase in the amount of such compensation paid in cash from 25%
to 40%. If any Director serves for less than a full calendar year, the
Compensation Committee will prorate the Director's compensation for the year as
the Committee deems appropriate. No additional compensation is paid to Directors
for serving on any committee or attending any board or committee meetings,
except that the Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an additional $10,000
per annum.

Each non-employee Director may serve as a director of one or more of the
Company's segment subsidiary boards, or may otherwise be invited to attend
segment subsidiary board, presidents' or strategy review meetings. In such case,
he or she may receive a fee of $1,500 for each such meeting attended. During
2004, Kristiane C. Graham and Bernard G. Rethore each received $3,000 for
attending segment subsidiary board and presidents' meetings and/or operating
company business review meetings and James L. Koley and Michael B. Stubbs each
received $4,500 for attending segment subsidiary board and presidents' meetings.

(1) Compensation deferred at the election of the named executive officers is
included in the category (e.g. salary, bonus, LTIP payouts) and the year
that it would otherwise have been reported had it not been deferred. The
bonus amount is determined as described in the Compensation Committee Report
beginning on page 18 of this proxy statement. Cash bonuses for the calendar
years shown have been listed for the year earned, and are generally paid in
February of the following calendar year. Bonuses for 2004 and 2003 paid to
certain officers listed in this table were awarded under the Company's
Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan (the "INCENTIVE PLAN"). Perquisites
and other personal benefits paid to each officer in each instance had a
total incremental cost to the Company of less than the lesser of $50,000 and
10% of the executive officer's annual base salary and bonus, and accordingly
are omitted from the table.

(2) Mr. Reece served as the Chief Executive Officer until December 31, 2004,
when he retired as an officer of Dover. Prior to July 1, 2003, Mr. Reece
also held the position of President of Dover.

(3) Mr. Hoffman became the Chief Executive Officer of Dover effective January 1,
2005 and has been the President and Chief Operating Officer of Dover since

recognition of his leadership of the Company during very difficult years.
The 2002 award for Mr. Pomeroy includes 4,723 shares for a salary reduction
requested and taken by him during 2002.

February 2005) provide for stock options, and (in special circumstances)
restricted stock, coordinated with cash performance awards. At the time of
grant, allocations are made such that, of each combined award, greater emphasis
is given to cash performance awards at the operating level, and greater emphasis
is given to stock options at the corporate level. All grants and cash
performance awards made in 2004 were under the 1995 Plan which expired in
January 2005. All grants and awards made in 2005 are under the 2005 Plan.

(2) The grant date present values were determined using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model applied as of the grant date. The assumptions used in applying
this model were: expected life of 8 years; expected dividend yield of 1.40%;
average stock price volatility of 30.70% and a risk-free interest rate of
3.86%, which represents the approximate yield of a zero coupon Treasury Bond
on the date of grant with a maturity date similar to the assumed exercise
period. This resulted in a discounted per share value of $14.84 (35.98% of
the option price). The valuation model was not adjusted for risk of
forfeiture or any vesting or transferability restrictions of the options,
all of which would reduce the value of the options if factored into the
calculation. The Black-Scholes model generates a theoretical value based on
the assumptions stated above and this value is not intended to be used for
predicting the future prices of the Company's common stock nor is there any
assurance that the theoretical value or any other value will be achieved.
The actual value of the options will depend on the future performance of the
Company's common stock, the overall market conditions and the executive
officer's continued service with the Company. The value ultimately realized
by the executive officer will depend on the amount by which the market price
of the Company's common stock on the date of exercise exceeds the exercise
price.

(1) The actual cash payout at the end of the three-year performance measurement
period will be equal to the award amount multiplied by a percentage which is
derived from a performance matrix, or table, which uses two performance
parameters: (1)(a) real (inflation adjusted) growth in earnings per share,
or (b) real growth in operating earnings; and (2)(a) return on equity, or
(b) return on investment. Parameters (1)(a) and (2)(a) apply to Mr. Reece,
Mr. Hoffman and other corporate officers, and parameters (1)(b) and (2)(b)
apply to the other four listed officers and those participating officers at
segment subsidiaries and operating companies.

DEF 14A 17th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 17th
There is no payout if growth in earnings is not achieved; there is no
payout if return on equity or return on investment is less than 10 percent.
Moreover, in calculating any payout, the earnings in the base year (the year
preceding the award year) from which earnings growth is measured is deemed to be
an amount equal to 10 percent of equity or 10 percent of invested capital if
actual earnings in such year are less than such amount.

There is a $2 million limit on the amount of any annual individual payout,
and the aggregate payout at each appropriate business unit may not exceed an
amount equal to 30% of the average annual nominal earnings increase at that unit
over the three-year performance period. The same plan is applied to three
separate "Business Units" as follows: (a) the entire company for corporate
officers, (b) the segment subsidiaries for their respective officers, and (c)
operating businesses for their respective officers. In determining the amount of
the payouts to officers of the segment subsidiaries and operating businesses,
gains and losses on sales of businesses are excluded.

Given the foregoing, the range of payouts is large. Payouts may not exceed
1,562% of the award. For the past three years, the amounts shown in the Payouts
column of the Summary Compensation Table represent percentage payouts from 0% to
208.6% of the award given three years prior to the year of the payout. Given
this range, it is difficult to forecast the required estimates called for by
this column; the amounts shown above, payable in February 2007, represent
payouts at the 100% level on the aforementioned matrix. This could be achieved
with real average annual earnings growth of 7% and a Return on Investment/Return
on Equity of 13% over the three-year performance period, or various other
similar combinations of earnings growth and return on investment. Actual payouts
for the three-year performance period ended December 31, 2004 (shown on the
Summary Compensation Table, on page 12) were: Mr. Hoffman 149.3%, Mr. Ropp
160.4% and Mr. Yochum 77.3%.

CERTAIN ARRANGEMENTS WITH RETIRING EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Thomas L. Reece, who retired as the Company's Chief Executive Officer
effective December 31, 2004, will continue to provide services to Dover during
2005. He is Chairman of Dover and serves as a director of each of Dover's six
segment subsidiaries and will provide substantial consultation and advice to
Dover throughout 2005. For these services, Mr. Reece will receive in 2005 an
amount equal to the same base salary that he received in 2004 ($1,000,000), but
he will receive substantially no other compensation or perquisites except that
he will be provided continued health insurance coverage at no cost to him until
he reaches age 65. For the year 2005, Mr. Reece will not receive the directors'
compensation under the Directors' Plan.

Mr. Yochum, who was President and Chief Executive Officer of Dover
Diversified, Inc. until September 30, 2004, and retired as a Vice President of
Dover effective December 31, 2004, will act as a consultant to Dover for a term
of one year. During his term as a consultant, he will receive as compensation
the same base salary he received in 2004 ($645,000), as well as a vehicle
allowance of $35,000 and reimbursement for modest expenditures relating to tax
and insurance advice, a life insurance policy and continued health insurance
coverage, but substantially no other compensation or perquisites.

RETIREMENT PLANS

Dover has a number of defined benefit and defined contribution pension
plans covering substantially all employees of the Company and its domestic and
foreign subsidiaries. Dover also has unfunded supplemental executive retirement
plans and other similar unfunded retirement programs ("SERPS") which provide
supplemental retirement benefits for eligible key management employees of Dover
and its subsidiaries. These supplemental plans generally serve to restore and/or
enhance retirement benefits to cover compensation not covered by underlying
qualified plans because of federal statutory limitations. Pursuant to those
plans, payments will be made at the appropriate time (e.g., retirement) to such
officers and other plan participants.

Benefits under various defined benefit plans and related SERPs are based
generally upon (i) final average compensation, defined as the highest 60
consecutive months of compensation out of the last 120 months, and (ii) the
years of service credit. Compensation for plan purposes includes salary, annual
bonus and commissions but excludes any payments or stock option or restricted
stock awards under the 1995 Plan or the
15

2005 Plan. The following table sets forth the aggregate estimated annual
benefits payable upon normal retirement (age 65) pursuant to the Company's
retirement plans.

Generally, vesting of qualified pension benefits occurs after completion of
five years of employment subsequent to age 18. The table above shows the
estimated annual benefit payable upon normal retirement on a straight life
annuity basis to persons in the specified remuneration and years of service
classifications. The benefit amounts listed in the table include the annuitized
portion of the defined contribution accumulation attributable to Company
contributions and one half of the social security benefits to which the covered
employee may be entitled. The SERP portion of these benefits may be paid in a
lump sum at retirement. Commencing January 1, 2003, executives covered by the
corporate SERP with at least 10 years of service credit can retire at age 62
with no reduction in benefits, and executives who join Dover at or after age 40
are credited with one additional year of service for every four years from age
25 to date of hire. The years of service that can be credited (subject to plan
limits) for eligible persons named in the Summary Compensation Table as of
December 31, 2004 are: Mr. Reece 39, Mr. Hoffman 14, Mr. Pomeroy 24, Mr. Ropp
14, Mr. Sandker 35, and Mr. Yochum 26. All of these persons are vested.

EXECUTIVE DEFERRED INCOME PLAN

In 1984-1985, the Company offered its executive officers an executive
deferred income plan (the "EDIP"). Messrs. Reece, Pomeroy and Yochum, along with
certain other executive officers, participated in the EDIP, pursuant to which
they each elected to defer certain income during the period 1985-88, which will
be repaid to them (or their estate) beginning at the time they reach age 65 and
are retired from Dover, and continuing thereafter for a period of 15 years.
Amounts deferred will be repaid together with interest compounding at the rate
of 10 percent (if they retire prior to age 65) or 12.5% (if they retire at age
65 or later), which were competitive market interest rates at the time the
program was introduced. As part of the

DEF 14A 19th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 19th
EDIP, the Company purchased whole life insurance policies payable to the Company
to fund the anticipated cost of this program. Amounts deferred by Messrs. Reece,
Pomeroy and Yochum were $60,000, $50,000 and $120,000, respectively, and the
Company is scheduled to repay such individuals the annual amounts of $85,086,
$67,197 and $127,425, respectively, beginning at age 65. The Program is subject
to termination under certain conditions, provided all participants are treated
in the same manner, and, in the event of a change of control, all sums due and
owing become payable immediately.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

Effective August 1, 2001, Dover adopted a deferred compensation plan as a
means whereby the Company may afford a select group of management or highly
compensated employees an opportunity to defer to a future year the receipt of
certain compensation that, absent such election, would have otherwise been paid.
The plan is intended to be an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan,
where the individual participants are responsible for their own investment
choices. Amounts deferred are credited with the earnings or losses of
hypothetical investments designated by plan participants. The Company has
established a grantor trust (the "TRUST") with The Bank of New York as the
trustee thereof, to hold certain amounts deferred under the plan. In certain
instances, the assets of the Trust become subject to claims of the general
creditors of the Company. In October 2004, Congress passed the American Jobs
Creation Act of 2004. This Act imposes new restrictions on deferred compensation
plans and certain amendments will need to be made to the Company's Deferred
Compensation Plan, Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, and change of control
agreements as the IRS continues to issue guidance under the Act.

CHANGE OF CONTROL PROVISIONS

The Company has agreements with Mr. Hoffman and other officers including
those shown on the Summary Compensation Table designed to encourage each such
officer to continue to carry out his or her duties with the Company in the event
of a potential change of control of the Company. Those agreements the Company
had with Mr. Reece and Mr. Yochum terminated upon their retirement. For purposes
of these agreements, a "change of control" occurs generally when (a) a person
becomes beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Company's common stock, (b) as a
result of a business combination or tender offer, a majority of the Board of
Directors changes, or (c) the stockholders approve a merger or other business
combination, as a result of which the Company ceases to be an independent public
company. The agreements provide that, if within eighteen months following a
change of control of the Company the officer's employment is terminated either
by the Company for other than "cause" or "disability" or by such officer for
"good reason" (all as defined in the agreements), then such officer will receive
a lump sum payment equal to three times the highest base salary and annual bonus
(but not any award under the 1995 Plan or the 2005 Plan or any other
compensation) received by such officer in any of the five most recent years. The
severance amounts to be paid may be subject to reduction if the officer, at the
time of termination, is within 36 months from his or her normal retirement age.
In addition, upon termination, all cash performance awards outstanding will
immediately vest and be paid to the officer and all stock options will
immediately vest and become exercisable.

The Internal Revenue Code imposes certain excise taxes on, and limits the
deductibility of, certain compensatory payments made by a corporation to or for
the benefit of certain individuals if such payments are contingent upon certain
changes in the ownership or effective control of the corporation or in the
ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the corporation, and have an
aggregate present value of more than three times the individual's annualized
includable compensation for the base period, as defined in the Internal Revenue
Code. Although Dover payments would not be expected to reach this amount in most
cases, if an individual became subject to the excise taxes, the Company would
gross-up the individual's payments to make him or her whole.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is composed entirely
of independent Directors. The Compensation Committee consists of four directors,
three of whom served throughout 2004 and Robert W. Cremin, who was appointed to
the Compensation Committee by the Board of Directors on February 10, 2005.

The Compensation Committee determines compensation of executive officers;
annually reviews and approves corporate goals and objectives relevant to the
compensation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), evaluates CEO
performance, and, together with other independent directors, determines the
CEO's compensation; makes the final determination of grants, awards and payouts
under the Company's incentive compensation plans; and oversees the
administration of the compensation plans. The Committee's charter (which can be
found on the Company's website) describes in more detail the Committee's
composition and its duties and responsibilities.

The Compensation Committee selects and, when it deems appropriate,
including during 2004, commissions an independent compensation consultant to
study the Company's compensation practices and the competitiveness of the
Company's overall executive compensation program. Based on the 2004 study, the
compensation consultant advised the Compensation Committee that the Company's
executive compensation program is generally competitive and substantially in
line with the Company's performance, but recommended certain changes and
improved procedures that management is currently putting into effect under the
direction of the Compensation Committee.

In setting compensation, the Compensation Committee considers the results
of studies undertaken by its independent compensation consultant, and also
reviews the performance of the Company as compared to the companies in the Total
Compensation Management database, a proprietary database designed by Hewitt
Associates (the "TCM DATABASE"). The TCM database currently includes
approximately 50% of the manufacturing companies included in the Fortune 500
listings. The rank of a company in the TCM database, which determines that
company's overall standing, is the average of the following ten separate
measurements: return on equity for one year and five years; return on capital
for one year and five years; return on sales for one year and five years; return
on assets for one year and five years; and total capital return for one year and
five years.

A. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION POLICY

The Company's compensation programs are designed to attract and retain
highly qualified executives, to motivate them to achieve company objectives and
to align their interests with those of shareholders. The Compensation
Committee's basic overriding compensation principle is that all compensation,
i.e., annual, medium-term and long-term, should generally be linked to Dover's
total return to stockholders and should be competitive with other comparable
companies. The Compensation Committee also believes that compensation for an
executive at the corporate level, the segment subsidiary level or the operating
company president level, should be closely aligned to the performance of the
business over which the executive has the most control. This is done annually
through salaries and bonuses, on a medium-term basis through three-year payout
cash performance awards and on a long-term basis through stock options. The
relative mix of medium-term and long-term opportunity is adjusted in accordance
with the breadth of the executive's responsibility across the organization, with
increasingly larger percentages allocated to long-term reward potential through
equity awards in the case of those persons who are in positions to most
materially affect the profitability and growth of the Company. The Compensation
Committee believes that, based on the Company's historical performance as
measured by the TCM database, and its desire to attract and motivate executive
talent, it is appropriate to target salaries and bonuses at the 62nd percentile
of the TCM database for all company executives.

In determining executive compensation for 2004, the Compensation Committee
evaluated both the total compensation package and its individual elements. For
2004, an executive's compensation consisted of base salary, an annual incentive
bonus opportunity, medium-term cash-based and long-term stock-based
compensation, as well as retirement and other benefits.

DEF 14A 21st Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 21st
B. COMPENSATION COMPONENTS

ANNUAL COMPENSATION

Base Salary: The Compensation Committee targets salaries of the Company's
executive officers at the 62nd percentile of the TCM database. The executive's
actual salary relative to this competitive framework varies based on individual
performance, business unit performance and the individual's skills, experience
and background.

Annual Bonus: As discussed below, annual bonus levels are set with
reference to the TCM database and are based on a pay-for-performance policy.
Annual bonuses vary depending upon the performance of the officer's unit, as
measured by earnings growth, return on investment and achievement of Company
goals, as well as the Committee's judgment of the executive's overall
performance.

For the highest paid officers, annual bonuses are made pursuant to the
terms of the Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan. In lieu of the Company's
traditional annual bonus program, the Executive Officer's Annual Incentive Plan
allows the Compensation Committee to award cash incentive bonuses to certain
executive officers based on financial performance relative to established
performance goals. Performance goals are determined by reference to Dover's net
income, earnings per share or return on equity in the case of participating
corporate officers, and operating earnings or return on investment in the case
of participating officers of segment subsidiaries or operating companies. The
Compensation Committee has discretion to select executive officers to
participate in the Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan in any given year and
to determine the formula for determining potential award amounts for that year,
incorporating one or more of these performance goals. Executive officers
selected to participate in the Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan receive
their annual bonuses for that year, if any, under the terms of that plan instead
of the Company's traditional bonus program.

For 2004, the Compensation Committee selected Messrs. Reece, Hoffman,
Pomeroy, Ropp, Sandker and Yochum to participate in the Executive Officer Annual
Incentive Plan. For Messrs. Reece and Hoffman, the Compensation Committee
established in February 2004 a specific goal for the Company's 2004 earnings per
share. For Messrs. Pomeroy, Ropp, Sandker and Yochum, the Compensation Committee
established in February 2004 specific goals of operating earnings (with certain
internal adjustments) for each of their respective segment subsidiaries.

Medium-Term and Long-Term Compensation: The Compensation Committee, the
Board of Directors and Dover's management believe that tangible (cash) and
intangible (stock) incentives should be provided to key management at each of
the three levels within the Company (i.e., corporate, segment subsidiary and
operating company levels) over periods of time longer than one fiscal year,
usually three to ten years. Given the different levels and opportunities to
impact Dover's long-term growth, and hence benefit Dover's stockholders, Dover's
medium-term and long-term compensation programs include both cash incentive
awards and stock-based awards that are made pursuant to the 1995 Incentive Stock
Option Plan and 1995 Cash Performance Program (the "1995 PLAN") or the 2005
Equity and Cash Incentive Plan (the "2005 PLAN") as described more fully below.
(During 2004, for the fiscal year 2003, the Company made medium-term and
long-term compensation awards under the 1995 Plan, which expired in January
2005. Medium-term and long-term compensation for 2004, which was awarded in
February 2005, was made pursuant to the 2005 Plan, which replaced the 1995 Plan.
The 1995 and 2005 Plans operate in a substantially similar manner.)

The 1995 and 2005 Plans each allow the Compensation Committee to make cash
incentive awards, stock option grants and restricted stock awards. Cash
performance awards and stock option grants are generally made on an annual basis
in February, although stock option grants can be made quarterly based on
individual circumstances. However, to provide incentives to management to
increase stockholder value over the medium and long term, payouts on cash
performance awards, if earned, occur three years later based on achieving
certain performance goals for the three-year period. Stock options generally
have ten-year terms and are not exercisable until three years after their grant.
Each of the Plans also allows the Compensation Committee to make awards of
restricted stock, with voting and dividend rights, and with vesting periods of
up to five years after grant. The Compensation Committee generally does not
award restricted stock except in connection with special or unusual
circumstances. No restricted stock awards were made to executive officers in or
for the year 2004.

DEF 14A 22nd Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 22nd
Only officers and executives who are in a position to affect materially the
profitability and growth of the Company are eligible for stock options,
restricted stock or cash incentive awards under the 1995 and 2005 Plans.
Medium-term and long-term awards under the 2005 Plan (and awards still
outstanding under the expired 1995 Plan) are basically a mix of stock-based and
cash incentives, with operating company management receiving a significant
percentage of their respective gain opportunity in the form of cash incentive
awards and corporate and segment subsidiary officers receiving a much greater
portion of their opportunity in the form of stock-based awards, usually stock
options. The maximum award for an individual is calculated by multiplying the
individual's base salary by an appropriate factor, based on his or her level,
selected from a table of multiples established by the Compensation Committee.
The result is then allocated between cash incentive award and stock option
grant, again based on allocation factors established by the Compensation
Committee for the individual's level. Cash incentive awards are made annually
for the three-year performance period commencing in the year of the award. Once
the value to be applied to the stock option grant is determined, that value is
converted into a number of option shares by dividing that value by the fair
market value of the Company's stock on the date of grant.

As mentioned above, the payout of cash incentive awards is conditional upon
the achievement of certain performance criteria over the three-year period
commencing with the year of the award. The actual cash payout is equal to the
award amount multiplied by a percentage which is derived from a performance
matrix, or table, which uses two performance parameters: (1)(a) real (inflation
adjusted) growth in earnings per share or (b) real growth in operating earnings;
and (2)(a) return on equity or (b) return on investment. Parameters (1)(a) and
(2)(a) apply to the CEO, president and other corporate officers, and parameters
(1)(b) and (2)(b) apply to the other Named Executive Officers and those other
participating officers at subsidiaries and operating companies. There is no
payout if growth in earnings is not achieved and there is no payout if return on
equity or return on investment is less than ten percent. In determining the
amount of the payouts to officers of the segment subsidiaries and operating
businesses, gains and losses on sales of businesses are excluded.

For the Named Executive Officers, the cash incentive awards made in 2004
were based on multiples ranging from .33 to .81, and the number of option shares
granted was based on multiples ranging from 3.24 to 7.05. The comparable
multiples for the 2005 cash awards and option share grants are .47 to .81 and
3.24 to 7.43, respectively. In all cases, these multiples were determined based
on recommendations made by the independent compensation consultant and adopted
by the Compensation Committee. It is anticipated that these multiples will be
used until the next compensation review is conducted. In February of each of
2003 and 2004, there were additional option shares granted as described in
footnote (5) to the Summary Compensation Table. In 2004, the number of optionees
granted option shares under the 1995 Plan was 3.8% of the total number of Dover
employees. The annual number of option shares granted has averaged 1.23% of
shares outstanding over the past five years. For 2005 grants made under the 2005
Plan, that percentage was 1.27%.

C. STOCKHOLDING GUIDELINES

The Compensation Committee believes that it is important to align the
interests of senior management and stockholders. While Dover has not adopted
formal stockholding guidelines for executive officers, Dover expects that,
except in cases of special need and in preparation for retirement, the net
shares acquired by executive officers at the corporate and segment subsidiary
levels through exercise of options will be held by them (or their family
members) for the duration of their employment with the Company.

D. COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 162(M)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the ability of a public
corporation to deduct the annual individual compensation paid to certain
executive officers in excess of $1 million. The executive officers covered by
Section 162(m) include the Chief Executive Officer and President and each of the
other Named Executive Officers. Compensation paid to those officers that
qualifies as performance-based is excludable from this limitation in determining
what compensation amount qualifies for tax deductibility.

DEF 14A 23rd Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 23rd
The Compensation Committee's general policy is to structure individual
compensation and compensation programs to allow the Company to fully deduct
compensation in accordance with Section 162(m). However, on occasion it may not
be possible to satisfy all the conditions of the Internal Revenue Code for
deductibility and still meet the Company's compensation needs. The Compensation
Committee retains the authority to authorize the payment of compensation that
may not be deductible if it believes such payments would be in the best
interests of the Company and its stockholders. All compensation paid to the
executive officers for 2004 qualified as fully deductible for federal income tax
purposes.

E. OTHER EXECUTIVE BENEFITS/PERSONAL BENEFITS

The Company's executive compensation also includes various employee
benefits. Generally, these benefits serve a different purpose than traditional
compensation, such as providing protection against financial loss arising from
illness, disability or death. Some of them are similar to the benefits offered
to the Company's other employees and some are intended to enhance the tax
efficiency of benefits to the recipient or serve as a substitute for or enhance
benefit opportunities lost due to regulatory contribution limits. Specifically,
among other such benefits, the Company offers a Supplemental Executive
Retirement Plan and a Deferred Compensation Plan. Please see pages 15 through 17
for more details on these plans. With respect to pensions and other similar
benefit programs, the Compensation Committee has set a target at the median of
comparable companies.

F. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee, acting together with the other independent
Directors, set the 2004 base salary of Mr. Thomas L. Reece, Chief Executive
Officer at $1,000,000. In February 2005, the Compensation Committee, acting
together with the other independent Directors, awarded Mr. Reece a bonus of
$1,600,000 for 2004, which was equal to 160% of his 2004 base salary. Mr.
Reece's bonus was awarded under the Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan.
Based on the level of achievement of that plan's target for Mr. Reece, which was
based on earnings per share, the Compensation Committee was permitted to award
him a tax-deductible bonus of up to $2.88 million. The annual bonus amount was
determined based upon: (a) the 62nd percentile of bonuses paid to CEOs at a
group of companies comparable to Dover according to the TCM database, and (b) a
subjective judgment factor which is the prerogative of the Committee, acting
together with the other independent Directors, and which included such matters
as their view of the sales, earnings and other achievements recorded by Dover in
2004 in the general business environment then prevailing, and consideration of
Mr. Reece's contributions to the Company during a period of over 39 years. The
first factor was given the greatest weight.

Due to his retirement effective December 31, 2004, Mr. Reece was not
granted stock options or a cash performance award in 2005.

In November 2004, the Board of Directors approved the recommendation of the
Compensation Committee that Mr. Reece receive in 2005 a fee equal to his base
salary in 2004 ($1,000,000), plus continued health insurance coverage at no cost
to him for the next 3 years until he reaches age 65, but substantially no other
compensation or perquisites, for services he will perform in 2005, when he will
be Chairman of Dover Corporation and also serve as a director of each of Dover's
six segment subsidiaries, and in consideration of the active role he is expected
to play in providing substantial consultation and advice throughout the year.
The Compensation Committee reviewed all the components of Mr. Reece's
compensation, including salary, bonus, medium-term and long-term incentive
compensation, unrealized stock option gains, perquisites or other personal
benefits to its executive officers, the earnings and accumulated payout
obligations under the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation programs,
the payout obligations under the Company's

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and the existence of a change-in-control
agreement, and found Mr. Reece's compensation in the aggregate to be reasonable.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors consists entirely
of non-employee Directors who are independent in accordance with the NYSE
Listing Standards, the rules of the SEC applicable to audit committee members
and the Dover Independence Standards. The Audit Committee consists of five
Directors, four of whom served throughout 2004, and Mary A. Winston, who was
appointed to the Audit Committee by the Board of Directors on February 10, 2005.

The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit
Committee, a copy of which may be found at the Company's website at
WWW.DOVERCORPORATION.COM. The Audit Committee is responsible for the duties set
forth in its charter but is not responsible for either the preparation of the
financial statements or the auditing of the financial statements. The Company's
management has the responsibility of preparing the financial statements and
implementing internal controls, and the Company's independent accountants have
the responsibility of auditing the financial statements and monitoring the
effectiveness of the internal controls. The review of the financial statements
by the Audit Committee is not the equivalent of an audit.

Pursuant to its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee discussed
with the Company's auditors the overall scope and plans for the audit of the
Company's 2004 financial statements. The Audit Committee met with the auditors,
with and without management of the Company present, to discuss the results of
the auditors' examination, the evaluation of the Company's internal controls and
the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting.

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed, with both management of the
Company and the independent auditors, the fiscal year 2004 audited financial
statements, including a discussion of critical accounting policies, the quality,
not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles followed, the
reasonableness of significant judgments reflected in such financial statements
and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee also (1) discussed with the independent auditors,
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the matters required to be discussed by Statement on
Auditing Standards No. 61; and (2) reviewed the written disclosures and the
letter from the independent auditors required by Independence Standards Board
Standard No. 1, and discussed with the independent auditors any relationships or
permitted non-auditing services, including those described below under
"Relationship with Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm," that might
impact their objectivity and independence.

In accordance with the requirements of the SO Act, the related SEC rules
and the NYSE Listing Standards, the Audit Committee engaged the independent
registered public accounting firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to audit the
annual accounts of Dover and its subsidiaries for 2004. Consistent with its
charter and applicable SEC rules, the Audit Committee approved in advance all
permitted non-audit services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to Dover and
its subsidiaries in 2004. For a description of the Audit Committee pre-approval
policy and the non-audit services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in
2004, see "Relationship with Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm"
below.

In each quarter of 2004, the Chair, or another member of the Audit
Committee designated by the Chair, on behalf of the Committee, participated in
two meetings of the Company's DC&P Committee, one prior to the Company's release
of earnings and the second prior to the filing of the annual or quarterly
report. Prior to the meetings, the Committee member and the Company's
independent auditors reviewed the draft earnings release or report and, at the
meetings, discussed them with management. The financial information for the

DEF 14A 25th Page of 31 TOC 1st Previous Next ↓Bottom Just 25th
fourth quarter and full year 2004 was similarly reviewed prior to the earnings
release in January 2005, and the Audit Committee reviewed the 2004 financial
statements with management and the independent auditors at two separate meetings
prior to their inclusion in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. In
addition, the Audit Committee held four regular meetings in 2004 and the Chair
had many communications with management and the independent auditors in and
since 2004.

Based upon the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit
Committee recommended that the audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2004 be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

RELATIONSHIP WITH INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

As discussed above, the independent registered public accounting firm of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is the independent registered public accounting firm
selected by the Audit Committee to audit the annual accounts of Dover and its
subsidiaries for 2004. This firm also audited the financial statements for 2002
and 2003. Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will not be present at
the Meeting.

FEES PAID TO INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

A. AUDIT FEES

Audit fees include fees for audit or review services in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards and fees for services that generally only
the Company's auditors provide, such as statutory audits and review of documents
filed with the SEC. Audit fees also include fees paid in connection with
services required for compliance with Section 404 of the SO Act. The aggregate
fees, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, paid to, or accrued for,
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for consolidated auditing services to the Company for
the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, were $10,300,000 and
$4,571,000, respectively, although the 2004 amount is still subject to final
review and approval by the Audit Committee.

B. AUDIT RELATED FEES

Audit-related fees include fees for assurance and related services that are
traditionally performed by the Company's auditors. These services include audits
of employee benefit plans, due diligence on acquisition targets, internal
control reviews and consultation in connection with financial and accounting
standards. The aggregate fees, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, paid to,
or accrued for, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for audit-related services to the
Company for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were
$282,000 and $525,000, respectively.

C. TAX FEES

Tax fees include fees for services that are performed by professional tax
staff other than in connection with the audit. These services include tax
compliance services, tax planning and tax advice. The aggregate fees, rounded to
the nearest thousand dollars, paid to, or accrued for, PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP for the Company's tax services for the years ended December 31, 2004 and
December 31, 2003, were $770,000 and $1,996,000, respectively.

D. ALL OTHER FEES

The aggregate fees, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, paid to, or
accrued for, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for all other services to the Company
for the years ended December 31, 2004, and December 31, 2003 were $3,000 and
$11,000, respectively.

PRE-APPROVAL OF SERVICES PROVIDED BY INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM

Consistent with its charter and applicable SEC rules, the Audit Committee
pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to Dover and its subsidiaries. With respect to
certain services which the Company's independent auditors have traditionally
provided, the Audit Committee has adopted specific pre-approval policies and
procedures. In developing these policies and procedures, the Audit Committee
considered the need to ensure the independence of the Company's outside auditors
while recognizing that, in certain situations, the Company's independent
auditors may possess the expertise and be in the best position to advise the
Company on issues and matters other than accounting and auditing.

The policies and procedures adopted by the Audit Committee allow the
pre-approval by the Audit Committee of permissible audit-related services and
non-audit-related services and tax services. Under the policies and procedures,
pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any general
pre-approval is detailed as to the particular services or category of services
and is subject to a specific budget for each of them. The policies and
procedures require that any other services be expressly and separately approved
by the Audit Committee prior to such services being performed by the independent
auditors. In addition, pre-approved services which exceed the budgeted amount
included in a general pre-approval require separate, specific pre-approval. For
each proposed service, the independent auditor and/or management is required to
provide detailed information at the time of approval. The Audit Committee
considers whether each pre-approved service is consistent with the SEC's rules
and regulations on auditor independence.

All audit-related and non-audit-related services performed by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP during 2004 were pre-approved specifically or
pursuant to the procedures outlined above.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
