SPX Corporation Retirement Savings and Stock Ownership Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of SPX Corporation Retirement Savings and Stock Ownership Plan as of December 30, 2002 and 2001 and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 as of December 30, 2002 and 2001 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

SPX Corporation Retirement Savings and
Stock Ownership Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 30, 2002 and 2001
Note 1Description of the Plan
The following description of the SPX Corporation Retirement Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (the Plan), as amended and restated effective December 31, 1999, provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan Agreement for a complete description of the Plans provisions. The Plan became effective January 1, 1952 and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Plan operates as a leveraged employee stock ownership plan with a cash or deferred arrangement as described by Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) and is designed to comply with Section 4975(e)(7) and the regulations thereunder of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) of 1986, as amended.
In 1989, the SPX Corporation Stock Ownership Plan purchased SPX Corporation (the Company) common shares using the proceeds of a note totaling $50,000,000. The note was guaranteed by the Company and the shares held in trust established under the Plan. In 1994 and 1997, the note was refinanced by the Company and was repaid by contributions to the Plan. As the Plan repaid the note, a percentage of stock was allocated to eligible employees accounts in accordance with applicable regulations under the Code. Shares are fully vested upon allocation. The note was fully repaid in 2001.
GeneralThe Plan is a defined contribution plan that primarily benefits employees who are not covered by collective bargaining agreements and who have met eligibility requirements.
ContributionsParticipants can contribute a portion of their compensation as a pretax contribution to the Plan, up to the maximum allowed under the Plan and the Code.

Note 1Description of the Plan (Continued)
As outlined in the Plan document, Company contributions are dependent upon the division of SPX Corporation where the participant is employed. In general, the Company makes matching contributions equal to 100 percent of the participants pretax contributions up to the first 4 percent of compensation deferred, and 50 percent of the participants pretax contributions in excess of 4 percent of compensation up to a maximum of 6 percent of compensation. Company contributions are invested in SPX Corporation common stock and are immediately vested and can be transferred at any time. The Company may also make a supplemental contribution of SPX Corporation common stock if the value of the stock released by the Plan is less than the Companys minimum required matching contribution. The trustee may make a supplemental allocation of shares released by payments on the outstanding loan if the number of shares released by such payments has a value in excess of the Companys required matching contribution.
Participant AccountsEach participants account is credited with the participants contribution, the employers matching and supplemental contributions, if any, and an allocation of Plan earnings. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participants account.
VestingParticipants are 100 percent vested in both employee and employer contributions.
Payment of BenefitsUpon termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum distribution, or monthly or yearly payments equal to the value of his or her account. A participant who experiences a financial hardship is eligible to receive a distribution from his or her Plan account. The Plan also allows participants to withdraw certain portions of their balances attributed to certain benefit plans that have been previously merged into the Plan.
Investment OptionsInvestment in SPX Corporation stock transferred to participants accounts by reason of the merger of the SPX Corporation Stock Ownership Plan on January 1, 1994 and stock allocated to a participants account by reason of matching contributions as discussed above can, at any time, be redirected.
Participant LoansA participant can borrow from the Plan an amount that does not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of the participants vested account balance. Loans are collateralized by the balance in the participants account and bear interest at reasonable rates. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions. Other regulations are outlined in the Plan document.

Note 1Description of the Plan (Continued)
Voting RightsEach participant is entitled to exercise voting rights attributable to the shares allocated to his or her account. The trustee is required to vote shares of common stock that have been allocated to participants, but for which the trustee received no voting instructions in the same manner and in the same proportion as the shares for which the trustee received timely voting instructions.
Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis.
InvestmentsInvestments of the Plan are stated at market value as determined by quoted market prices. The fair value of the Plans interest in the SPX Corporation Savings Trust (the Master Trust) is based on the beginning of the year value of the Plans interest in the Master Trust plus actual contributions and allocated income, less actual distributions (see Note 3). Guaranteed investment contracts included in the Master Trust are valued at contract value (which represents contributions made under the contract, plus interest at the contract rate, less funds used to pay Plan benefits), because the contracts are fully benefit-responsive. The interest rates for 2002 and 2001 range from 4.74 percent to 8.12 percent and 5.65 percent to 8.10 percent, respectively. The value of participant loans is the face value, which approximates fair value. Dividend income is accrued on the ex-dividend date.
Income Tax StatusThe Plan obtained its determination letter on November 18, 1998, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. The Company has applied for a new determination letter and the Plan administrator believes the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement date.

Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 3Master Trust Fund
The investments of five qualified plans, including the SPX Corporation Retirement Savings and Stock Ownership Plan and four other plans sponsored by SPX Corporation or its subsidiary, are combined in the Master Trust. Under the terms of a trust agreement between Fidelity Management Trust Company (the Bank) and the Company, the Bank manages the trust funds of the Master Trust on behalf of the Plan. The Plans assets in the Master Trust represented 92 percent and 90 percent of the total assets in the Master Trust as of December 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Investment income and administrative expenses related to the Master Trust are allocated to the individual plans based on average monthly balances invested by each plan.
The total assets held in the Master Trust at December 30, 2002 and 2001 are as follows:
