COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

         On July 26, 2004, the Company's directors, other than Mr. Kanders who
was compensated pursuant to his employment agreement, received stock options to
purchase up to 12,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $35.40
per share, of which options to purchase 3,125 shares of common stock were to
vest at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter. On March 25, 2005, the Board
of Directors approved an accelerated grant of 37,500 options to each of the
non-management directors. However, due to limited availability under the 2002
Stock Incentive Plan, such options were not issued at such time. If a new stock
incentive plan is approved by the Company's stockholders at the 2005 Annual
Meeting of Stockholders, Armor Holdings will grant such options to the
non-management directors as approved by the Board of Directors. In addition to
the foregoing, the non-management directors of Armor Holdings will receive cash
in the amount of $16,000 which is payable quarterly during the course of the
year. Non-attendance by a member of the Board at any Board meeting will result
in a reduction of $2,000 in compensation for each missed meeting. In addition,
the Chairs of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and the Audit
Committee will each be paid $25,000 to serve as the Chair of such committee.
Members of a Board Committee will each be paid $5,000, except for the Chairs of
the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and the Audit Committee who will
each be paid the Chair compensation set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence. For the year commencing from and after the 2005 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, the Chairs of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and
the Audit Committee will each be paid $50,000 to serve as the Chair of such
Committee, which will be payable quarterly during the course of the year. The
members of the Board are reimbursed by us for their travel and other expenses
incurred by them in connection with company business. If Mr. Schiller is elected
to the Board of Directors, he will be compensated pursuant to his employment
agreement and will not be entitled to receive the compensation that is paid to
our non-management directors.


EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

         Other than as set forth below, as of April 27, 2005, the Company did
not have any employment agreements with its Named Executive Officers. However,
the Company is in the process of negotiating employment agreements with certain
of its executive officers, including a new employment agreement with Mr.
Kanders, and the Company anticipates disclosing the terms of such employment
agreements in the proxy statement for the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
which will be filed with the Commission subsequent to the filing of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1).


         WARREN B. KANDERS

         As of January 1, 2002, we entered into an employment agreement with
Warren B. Kanders which provides that he will serve as the Executive Chairman of
our Board of Directors for a five year term expiring December 31, 2006, for
which Mr. Kanders received options to purchase 550,000 shares of common stock,
of which 75,000 shares can be acquired at an exercise price of $23.93 and the
remaining 475,000 shares can be acquired at an exercise price of $24.07. These
options vest as follows: 100,000 options vested on each of December 31, 2002,
December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and 250,000 options vest on December 31,
2006. Mr. Kanders also received a restricted stock grant of 100,000 shares,
which vested in fiscal 2004. On August 12, 2002, we also granted to Mr. Kanders
a restricted stock award in the amount of 10,447 shares pursuant to our 2002
Stock Incentive Plan which vested on December 31, 2004. Pursuant to his
employment agreement, Mr. Kanders may be entitled, at the discretion of the
Compensation Committee of the board, to participate in the other option plans
and other bonus plans we have adopted based on his performance and our overall
performance. A "change in control" of Armor Holdings will allow Mr. Kanders to
terminate his employment agreement and Mr. Kanders will be entitled to the
vesting of all 550,000 options and 100,000 restricted stock grants granted to
him under the employment agreement. Mr. Kanders will also be entitled to
acceleration of such vesting on the options and restricted stock grants upon the
termination of his employment agreement by us without cause. Furthermore, in the
event the employment agreement is terminated by Mr. Kanders due to the
occurrence of a change in control or terminated by Armor Holdings without cause,
Mr. Kanders shall be entitled to receive, in one lump sum, within 5 business
days of the occurrence of the change in control or his termination by Armor
Holdings without cause, the greater of his base compensation throughout the term
of the employment agreement or twice his annual base compensation. A termination
for cause will result in the termination of any unvested options and restricted
stock grants. In the event Mr. Kanders terminates the employment agreement,
other than due to a change in control, all vested options and restricted stock
grants granted to Mr. Kanders shall remain subject to the terms of the agreement
by which such options and restricted stock grants were issued, and


                                       14




the unvested portion of such options and restricted stock grants shall
terminate. A termination of the employment agreement due to Mr. Kanders' death
or disability will result in the termination of the unvested portion of the
restricted stock awarded pursuant to Mr. Kanders' employment agreement. Mr.
Kanders has also agreed to certain confidentiality and non-competition
provisions. Mr. Kanders' employment agreement also contains other provisions
that are customary for agreements of this type.

         Effective April 9, 2003, Mr. Kanders was also appointed to serve as our
Chief Executive Officer pursuant to an amendment dated July 26, 2003 to his
employment agreement. Pursuant to his employment with Armor Holdings, Mr.
Kanders shall receive a base salary in the amount of $525,000. On July 26, 2003,
Mr. Kanders received from us 200,000 shares of restricted stock pursuant to our
2002 Stock Incentive Plan. Under the terms of the restricted stock award, which
were amended in Amendment No. 2 to Mr. Kanders' employment agreement, dated as
of November 4, 2003, all of the 200,000 shares of restricted stock will vest on
the date the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange
shall equal $20 per share or more; provided that such $20 price per share is
attained on or before July 26, 2006, and maintained for five consecutive trading
days; provided, further, that the payment of such restricted stock bonus award
will be deferred for a period of five years after the vesting date, subject to
certain acceleration provisions. On November 11, 2003, the 200,000 share
restricted stock award vested in its entirety; provided that the payment of such
restricted stock award was deferred until the earlier of November 11, 2008 and
two years of continuous employment by Mr. Kanders with the Company; the delivery
of such restricted stock has been accelerated by the Company and were delivered
on or about April 26, 2005 less a certain number of shares necessary to pay
applicable withholding taxes payable upon receipt of such shares. The restricted
shares are subject to a lock-up period through November 11, 2005; upon Mr.
Kanders' voluntary termination of employment with the Company, if the foregoing
lock-up period has not yet expired, it shall be extended for an additional five
year period; upon a change in control of the Company, the lock-up period that is
still in effect in respect of such shares upon the occurrence of such change in
control shall terminate. Mr. Kanders also received from us on July 26, 2003
300,000 stock options to purchase our common stock from us at an exercise price
of $14.32 per share pursuant to our 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, which stock
options were accelerated on March 25, 2005 and are presently exercisable; sales
of common stock issued upon an exercise of any such options are subject to the
following lock-up restrictions: 100,000 shares will be restricted from sale
until each of July 26, 2005 and 2006; in addition, upon Mr. Kanders' voluntary
termination of employment with the Company, any of the foregoing lock-up periods
which have not yet expired shall be extended for an additional five year period.
On February 10, 2004, we granted to Mr. Kanders (i) 250,000 stock options to
purchase our common stock from us at an exercise price of $28.90 per share
pursuant to our 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, which stock options were accelerated
on March 25, 2005 and are presently exercisable; sales of common stock issued
upon an exercise of any such options are subject to the following lock-up
restrictions: 83,333 shares will be restricted from sale until January 1, 2006

Company, any of the foregoing lock-up periods which have not yet expired shall
be extended for an additional five year period; and (ii) a restricted stock
grant of 13,841 shares pursuant to our Stock Incentive Plan of which 4,613
vested on February 9, 2005 and 4,614 vest on each of February 9, 2006 and 2007.
In addition, on January 3, 2005, Mr. Kanders was granted presently exercisable

         STEPHEN E. CROSKREY

         As of March 7, 2005, we entered into a resignation and severance
agreement and general release with Stephen Croskrey (the "Severance Agreement")
pursuant to which Mr. Croskrey (i) resigned as the President and Chief Executive
Officer of our Products Division and from all other positions held by him at our
direct and indirect subsidiaries or affiliates; and (ii) released Armor Holdings
and its affiliates from any and all Claims (as defined in Mr. Croskrey's
Severance Agreement) and certain other matters through the date of the Severance
Agreement.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Severance Agreement, provided that Mr.
Croskrey is not in breach of the terms of the Severance Agreement, we will make
severance payments in the aggregate amount of $337,500, which shall be payable
to Mr. Croskrey over a period of 18 months commencing six months after March 7,
2005 in equal amounts in accordance with our payroll practices in effect from
time to time for employees generally, and subject to withholding for applicable
taxes and other mutually agreed amounts. We will also make a lump sum payment of
$112,500 in September 2005 to an entity controlled by Mr. Croskrey for certain
services to be rendered to us.

         In addition, certain options previously granted to Mr. Croskrey became
fully vested as of March 7, 2005, and the termination date of certain of such
options were extended. Certain options and restricted shares owned by Mr.
Croskrey will be delivered by Mr. Croskrey to Armor Holdings to be held by Armor
Holdings as collateral to secure Mr. Croskrey's obligations under the Severance
Agreement, and Mr. Croskrey granted Armor Holdings a security interest therein
in order to secure Mr. Croskrey's obligations under the Severance Agreement.

         Mr. Croskrey's Severance Agreement also contains certain
confidentiality and non-competition provisions, medical and group term life
insurance benefits and other provisions that are customary for agreements of
this type.

         Certain of the unvested stock options previously granted to employees
were accelerated on March 25, 2005, are presently exercisable and are subject to
lock-up restrictions of varying durations. In addition, on March 25, 2005, the
Company accelerated the issuance of certain stock options that the Company would
have awarded in the future to Mr. Kanders, Mr. Schiller, Mr. Heiar, Mr. Mecredy,
Mr. Scott O'Brien and Mr. Gary Allen. The newly awarded stock options were
vested upon issuance, are presently exercisable and are subject to lock-up
restrictions of varying durations which coincide with the original vesting
schedules. For more information regarding the recently accelerated stock
options, please see the section labeled "Executive Compensation".

         We have two non-qualified equity plans, the 2002 Executive Stock Plan
and the 1998 Stock Option Plan, that have not been approved by stockholders. The
2002 Executive Stock Plan provides for the grant of a total of 470,000 stock
options and stock awards to our key employees. The Board of Directors, or a
committee designated by the Board consisting of two or more independent
directors, is authorized to set the price and terms and conditions of the
options and awards granted under the 2002 Executive Stock Plan. Options under
the 2002 Executive Stock Plan are substantially the same as the 2002 Stock
Incentive Plan except that we may only grant non-qualified stock options under
the 2002 Executive Stock Plan. The 2002 Executive Stock Plan was adopted on
March 13, 2002 and all shares available for grant under the 2002 Executive Stock
Plan were granted to our executive officers on March 13, 2002.

         The 1998 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of a total of 725,000
stock options to our key employees. The Board of Directors, or a committee
designated by the Board consisting of two or more independent directors, is
authorized to set the price and terms and conditions of the options granted
under the 1998 Stock Option Plan. Options under the 1998 Stock Option Plan are
substantially the same as the Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Option Plan except
that we may only grant non-qualified stock options under the 1998 Stock Option
Plan. The 1998 Stock Option Plan was adopted on December 7, 1998 and all shares
available for grant under the 1998 Stock Option Plan were granted to our
executive officers effective January 1, 1999 or, if later, the renewal date of
their respective employment agreements.
