be paid to the Director at the time(s) and in the manner specified in Article&nbsp;IV hereof, in the
form of cash or Hubbell Common Stock, or any combination thereof, as designated by the Director.
</DIV>

Account. In accordance therewith, such Director shall elect prior to December&nbsp;31, 2007, (i)&nbsp;the
time and form of payment of such Retirement Benefit Account in accordance with Sections&nbsp;4.1 or 4.5
and (ii)&nbsp;the investment of the Retirement Benefit Account in either the Cash Account or a Stock
Unit Account as elected under Sections&nbsp;3.2 or 3.4; provided, however, that if the investment of the
Retirement Benefit Account in the Stock Unit Account would violate any federal or state securities
laws, as determined by Hubbell&#146;s outside legal counsel, then the Retirement Benefit Account shall
be invested in the Cash Account. Notwithstanding anything in Sections&nbsp;3.4 or 4.1 to the contrary,
if it is subsequently determined by Hubbell&#146;s outside legal counsel that the Retirement Benefit
Account may be invested in the Stock Unit Account without violating the federal or state securities
laws, then each Director shall have a one time election to have the balance of his Retirement
Benefit Account that is held in the Cash Account transferred to the Stock Unit Account. The number
of Stock Units to be credited to the Director&#146;s Stock Unit Account shall be determined under the

have been paid, and the value of the Retirement Benefit Account on the date of the transfer being

Common Stock of Hubbell) payable on the number of shares of Class&nbsp;A Common Stock or Class&nbsp;B Common

Amounts credited to a Director&#146;s Stock Unit Account prior to July&nbsp;7, 1988 (the &#147;Cutoff Date&#148;) shall

Unit remaining in the Director&#146;s Stock Unit Account. Such fractional share will be valued at the

event that payment of a Directors Stock Unit Account in the form of Class&nbsp;A Common Stock or Class&nbsp;B
Common Stock would cause the limits on the maximum number of shares which may be issued under the
Plan under Section&nbsp;3.8 to be exceeded, then the Director&#146;s Stock Unit Account shall be distributed
first up to the maximum number of shares of Class&nbsp;A Common Stock and Class&nbsp;B Common Stock which
would not exceed the limit, and the balance thereof shall be distributed in cash.
