AWARD AGREEMENT
RESTRICTED SHARE AWARD TO                    

This AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the Award Date set forth below between ROBBINS & MYERS, INC., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), and                      (“Employee”).

     A. The Company from time to time makes Restricted Share Awards to Employees under the Company’s 2004 Incentive Stock Plan As Amended (the “Plan”), a copy of which has been provided to Employee and is incorporated herein by this reference;

     B. For the purpose of encouraging Employee to have a proprietary interest in the Company through stock ownership, to continue in the service of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and to render superior performance during the period of employment, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company has determined that Restricted Shares should be awarded under the Plan to Employee; and

     C. Any capitalized term used herein that is not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE COMPANY AND EMPLOYEE INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. RESTRICTED SHARE AWARD.

1.1 Grant of Restricted Shares

(a) The Company hereby grants to Employee on October 5, 2007 (the “Award Date”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and subject further to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,                      (___) common shares of the Company (the “Restricted Shares”) as a Restricted Share Award under the Plan. If and when the restrictions set forth in Section 1.2 expire in accordance with the terms of this Agreement without forfeiture of the Restricted Shares, and upon satisfaction of all other applicable conditions with respect to the Restricted Shares, such shares shall no longer be considered restricted for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) As soon practicable after the Award Date (unless the Company has established a “book entry” system for its common shares), the Company shall direct that a stock certificate representing the Restricted Shares be registered in the name of and issued to Employee. Such certificate shall be held in the custody of the Company or its designee until such Restricted Shares are no longer considered restricted.

(c) By executing this Agreement, Employee irrevocably appoints the President, each Vice President, and the Secretary of the Company, and each of them, as his true and lawful attorney in fact, with power (i) to sign in Employee’s name and on Employee’s behalf stock certificates and stock powers covering the Restricted Shares and such other documents and instruments as the Committee deems necessary or desirable to carry out the terms of this Agreement and (ii) to take such other action as the Committee deems necessary or desirable to effectuate the terms of this Agreement. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable. Employee agrees to execute such other stock powers and documents as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Committee to effectuate the terms of this Agreement.

(d) If the Restricted Shares are issued in “book entry” form rather than have a stock certificate issued, the Company’s transfer agent shall note in its records the Legend. If a stock certificate is issued for the Restricted Shares, the certificate for the Restricted Shares shall bear the following legend (the “Legend”):

“The ownership and transferability of this certificate and the common shares represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the Robbins & Myers, Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan As Amended and an Award Agreement for Restricted Shares entered into between the registered owner and Robbins & Myers, Inc. Copies of such Plan and Agreement are on file in the executive offices of Robbins & Myers, Inc.”

In addition, transfer of the Restricted Shares shall be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Company may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange or securities association upon which the common shares are then listed, and any applicable federal or state securities law, and the Company may cause a legend or legends to be placed on such certificate or certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

(e) As soon as administratively practicable following the applicable Vesting Date (as defined in Section 1.3), and upon the satisfaction of all other applicable conditions with respect to the Restricted Shares, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Employee a certificate or certificates for the Restricted Shares which shall not bear the Legend or if no stock certificates are then being issued because the Restricted Shares have been issued in “book entry” form, have all restrictions removed from the Restricted Shares.

1.2 Restrictions.

(a) Employee shall have all rights and privileges of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Shares, including the right to vote and receive dividends or other distributions with respect to the Restricted Shares, except that the following restrictions shall apply:

(ii) Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned or subject any encumbrance,

pledge, or charge or disposed of for any reason until the applicable Vesting Date;

(iii) All common shares distributed as a dividend or distribution, if any, with respect to the Restricted Shares prior to the Vesting Date shall be delivered to and held by the Company and subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Shares in respect of which the dividend or distribution was made; and

(iv) All unvested Restricted Shares shall be forfeited and returned to the Company and all rights of Employee with respect to such shares shall terminate in their entirety on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.4(c).

(b) Any attempt to dispose of unvested Restricted Shares or any interest in such shares in a manner contrary to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall be void and of no effect.

(c) If Employee’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason other than death or disability, all unvested Restricted Shares shall be forfeited by Employee as of the date of termination. In the event of any such forfeiture, all such forfeited Restricted Shares shall become the property of the Company and the certificate or certificates representing such Restricted

Shares, if any, shall be returned immediately to the Company.

1.5 Committee’s Discretion.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Committee shall have discretion to waive any forfeiture of the Restricted Shares and any other conditions set forth in this Agreement, but only to the extent any such waiver of the forfeiture or condition is permitted by the terms of the Plan.
