Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan
Audited Financial Statements and Supplemental Schedules
For the Year ended December 31, 2003
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Teledyne Technologies Incorporated
As Plan Administrator of the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2003, and delinquent participant contributions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2003
1. Description of the Plan
General
The Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 401(k) Plan (the Plan) is a defined contribution plan available to eligible U.S. domestic employees of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated and certain subsidiaries (Teledyne or the Company). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). The Plan was adopted and effective on April 1, 2000. It was amended in October 2002 to revise the definition of Disability and the final Minimum Required Distribution Regulation issued by the Internal Revenue Service. In December 2002, the Plan was amended to reflect changes due to the acquisition of Teledyne Monitor Labs, Inc. In January 2003, the Plan was amended to reflect the provisions of Section 132(f)(4) of the Code, which provides for inclusion of pre-tax qualified transportation benefits in the determination of a participants compensation. For a more complete description of the Plans provisions please refer to the Plan document.
Contributions
Participants can defer between 1% and 50% (highly compensated employees between 1% and 15%), subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations, of their eligible wages and contribute them to the Plan. Employees become eligible for Company matching contributions following 90 days of service or unless expressly provided by the terms of an acquisition agreement. Qualifying employee contributions are partially matched by the Company up to a maximum of $1,000 annually for each participant.
Participant Accounts
Separate accounts are maintained by the recordkeeper for each participating employee. Asset management fees charged for the administration of all funds are charged against net assets available for benefits of the respective fund. Certain other expenses of administering the Plan are paid by the plan sponsor.
Vesting
Participants are 100% vested in their contributions, Company matching contributions and all earnings thereon.

1. Description of the Plan (continued)
Participant Loans
Active employees can borrow up to 50% of their vested account balances. The loan amounts are further limited to a minimum of $500 and a maximum of $50,000, and an employee can have no more than one loan outstanding at any given time. Interest rates are determined based on commercially accepted criteria, and payment schedules vary based on the type of loan. Loans may be paid in full or in part at any time. Loans are repayable over periods of up to five years (15 years for loans to purchase the participants primary residence). Payments are generally made through payroll deductions.
Plan Termination
In the event that the Plan is terminated, or the plan sponsor permanently discontinues making contributions, all amounts credited to the accounts of affected participants will be distributed to participants as defined in the Plan document.
Withdrawals and Distributions
The Plan allows for participants to make withdrawals from the Plan upon reaching age 591/2. Additionally, the value of participants contributions and the value of all Company matching contributions are payable to participants upon death, disability, retirement or upon termination of employment with the Company. At the participants election, payment may be made in cash, as a single lump sum, or in installments.
Administrative Expenses
The Company pays administrative expenses, which include recordkeeping and trustee fees as well as expenses incurred in administering the Plan. Participants pay loan origination and servicing fees.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Reclassification
Certain financial information for 2002 has been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.
Valuation of Investments
Mutual funds and common collective trust funds are stated at their unit values established for each fund by the fund manager, at each valuation date, which fluctuate with the value of the assets in each fund. Units of the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Stock Fund and assets of the Fidelity Brokerage Link Account are valued principally on the basis of the quoted market value. Participant loans are stated at their outstanding balance which approximates fair value.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. Investments
Plan participants can invest their contributions and any Company matching contributions in any or all of the investment programs managed by the Plans trustee. The Plans investments are held by Fidelity Management Trust Company (Fidelity), the trustee. One of the investment options offered through Fidelity is the Fidelity Brokerage Link Account, which enables a participant to invest in individual common stocks, preferred stocks, mutual funds, corporate bonds, Fidelity funds, and short-term investments as stipulated in the Plan document. The Company does not guarantee any rates of return or investment results.

4. Income Tax Status
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated December 23, 2002, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the IRS, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The plan administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code, and therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.
5. Parties-in-Interest
During 2003 and 2002, the Plan invested in mutual funds managed by Fidelity. Trustee and investment fees paid during 2003 were based on customary and reasonable rates for such services.
One of the investment options available to participants is the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Stock Fund. Such fund included 254,491 and 260,486 shares of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated common stock at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
6. Subsequent Events
Effective January 1, 2004, the Plan was amended to remove the $1,000 maximum matching contribution cap under the Plan for all employees of the Company eligible to participate in the Plan and who are not eligible to accrue a benefit under the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan and instead have a maximum matching contribution equal to fifty percent of the participants contributions up to, but not exceeding 6 percent of the participants compensation, provided that total matching contributions shall not exceed 3 percent of the participants compensation during any Plan Year.
In June 2004, the Plan was amended to permit direct rollovers of eligible after-tax contributions by Company employees who have become participants in the Plan as the result of acquisitions by the Company, provide special in-service withdrawal rights for certain rollover contributions, exclude any employee of Teledyne Isco, Inc. from eligibility to participate in the Plan until January 1, 2005, and change from use of the prior year testing method to the current year testing method for non-discrimination testing purposes, for Plan years after December 31, 2002.
