February 19, 2003
IDEX Corporation (IEX)
c/o Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co.
9 West 57th Street
New York, NY 10019

(1)   On February 14, 2003, KKR Associates, L.P. (“KKR”) distributed 1,300,770 shares of Common Stock to certain limited partners of KKR. The reporting person does not have a pecuniary interest in any of the distributed shares. The reporting person is a general partner of KKR, and in such capacity may be deemed, for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act"), to be the beneficial owner of shares held by KKR. However, pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(4) promulgated under the Act, the reporting person expressly disclaims that he is the beneficial owner for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose, of any of such shares, other than to the extent of his economic interest in such shares. In prior reports, the reporting person reported beneficial ownership of all shares held by KKR. Of the shares held by KKR, 315,475 shares have been allocated to the account of the reporting person or to a family trust of which the reporting person's wife is trustee.
