I. Information About Voting
 
Solicitation of Proxies. The Board of Directors of FMC Technologies, Inc. (“FMC Technologies”) is soliciting proxies for use at the 2003 Annual Meeting of FMC Technologies and any adjournments of that meeting. FMC Technologies first mailed this proxy statement, the accompanying form of proxy and the FMC Technologies Annual Report for 2002 on March 17, 2003.
 
Agenda Items. The agenda for the Annual Meeting is to:
 
 	1.	 	Re-elect three directors: Mike R. Bowlin, Edward J. Mooney and James M. Ringler;	
 
 	2.	 	Ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent public accountants for 2003; and	
 
 	3.	 	Conduct any other business properly brought before the meeting.	
 
Who Can Vote. You can vote at the Annual Meeting if you are a holder of FMC Technologies common stock, par value of $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), as of the close of business on the record date. The record date is February 28, 2003. You will have one vote for each share of Common Stock. As of February 28, 2003, there were 66,051,869 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote.
 
How to Vote. You may vote in one of two ways:
 
 	·	 	You can come to the Annual Meeting and cast your vote there; or	
 
 	·	 	You can vote by signing and returning the enclosed proxy card. If you do, the individuals named on the card will vote your shares in the way you indicate.	
 
Use of Proxies. Unless you tell us on the proxy card to vote differently, we plan to vote signed and returned proxies FOR the Board nominees for director and  FOR  ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent public accountants for 2003. We do not now know of any other matters to come before the Annual Meeting. If they do, proxy holders will vote the proxies according to their best judgment.
 
Revoking a Proxy. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised. You can revoke a proxy by:
 
 	·	 	Sending a written notice to the Secretary of FMC Technologies;	

 
 	·	 	Delivering a properly executed, later-dated proxy; or	
 
 	·	 	Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.	
 
The Quorum Requirement. We need a quorum of stockholders to hold a valid Annual Meeting. A quorum will be present if the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the meeting either attend the Annual Meeting in person or are represented by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for the purpose of establishing a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker votes on some matters on the proxy card but not on others because the broker does not have the authority to do so.
 
Vote Required for Action. Directors are elected by a plurality vote of shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting. Other actions require the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes have the effect of a no vote on matters other than director elections.
 
II. The Proposals To Be Voted On
 
Election of Directors
 
FMC Technologies has three classes of directors of equal size. The term for each class is three years. Class terms expire on a rolling basis, so that one class of directors is elected each year. The term for the nominees for director will expire at the 2006 Annual Meeting.
 
Nominees for Director
 
The nominees for director this year are: Mike R. Bowlin, Edward J. Mooney and James M. Ringler. Information about the nominees, the continuing directors and the Board of Directors is contained in the section of this proxy statement entitled “Board of Directors.”
 
The Board of Directors expects that all of the nominees will be able and willing to serve as directors. If any nominee is not available, the proxies may be voted for another person nominated by the current Board of Directors to fill the vacancy, or the size of the Board of Directors may be reduced.
 
The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the election of Mike R. Bowlin, Edward J. Mooney and James M. Ringler.

Ratification of Appointment of Independent Public Accountants
 
Based on the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors has appointed KPMG LLP to serve as FMC Technologies’ independent public accountants for 2003. KPMG LLP has served as FMC Technologies’ independent public accountants since its inception. During 2002 and 2001, KPMG LLP’s fees were as follows:
 
 	  	(000s)	
 	  	 	2002	  	 	2001	

	

	  	

	

	
· Audit Fees	  	$	1,239	  	$	2,014	
· Audit Related Fees	  	 	85	  	 	74	
· Tax Fees	  	 	549	  	 	970	
· All Other Fees	  	 	418	  	 	488	

	

	  	

	

	
· Total	  	$	2,291	  	$	3,546	
 
Audit related fees include benefit plan audits. Tax fees relate to tax compliance and consultation on various corporate tax matters. Other fees are principally associated with tax and other compliance services for expatriates.
 
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors considered the effect of KPMG LLP’s non-audit services in assessing the independence of such accountants and concluded that the provision of such services by KPMG LLP was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.
 
A representative of KPMG LLP is expected to attend the Annual Meeting. The representative will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires and also will be available to respond to appropriate questions.
 
The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as independent public accountants for 2003.

Compensation
 
Compensation Plan. Effective as of May 1, 2001, FMC Technologies adopted a compensation plan for non-employee directors of its Board of Directors as a part of the FMC Technologies, Inc. Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (“FMC Technologies Stock Plan”). Pursuant to such compensation plan, each non-employee director of FMC Technologies currently receives annual compensation equal to approximately $100,000 paid in the form of an annual retainer, meeting and committee chair fees and restricted stock units.
 
Retainer and Fees. Each non-employee director is paid an annual retainer of $40,000. At least $25,000 of this annual retainer is paid in stock units that are payable in Common Stock upon death or retirement from the Board of Directors. The remainder is paid in quarterly installments in cash or, at the election of the non-employee director, may be deferred and invested in a stock account that will be credited with stock units representing Common Stock at the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of the election, with an initial value equal to the deferred amount. Each non-employee director also receives $1,000 for each Board of Directors’ meeting and Board of Directors’ committee meeting attended, and each director is reimbursed for reasonable incidental expenses. Each non-employee director who chairs a Committee is paid an additional $4,000 per year.
 
Restricted Stock Units. Each non-employee director also receives, on May 1 of each year, a grant of restricted stock units. On May 1, 2002, FMC Technologies granted each director, other than Mr. Pattarozzi (who was not a director at that time), 2,165 restricted
 
10

 
stock units with a market value equal to $50,011 on the date of grant. On October 1, 2002, after Mr. Pattarozzi joined the Board, FMC Technologies granted Mr. Pattarozzi 2,165 restricted stock units with a market value equal to $36,957 on the date of grant. The restricted stock units granted vest at the 2003 Annual Meeting and are payable in Common Stock upon death or retirement from the Board of Directors.
 
Other Compensation. Employees of FMC Technologies do not receive any additional compensation for their service as directors. No other remuneration is paid to directors. Directors who are not FMC Technologies employees do not participate in FMC Technologies’ employee benefit plans.

V. Certain Relationships And Related Party Transactions
 
Board Of Directors Relationships And Related Transactions
 
Governor Thompson is Chairman of the law firm of Winston & Strawn, which has provided, and continues to provide, legal services to FMC Technologies. In addition, FMC Technologies and certain of its subsidiaries did business in 2002 with certain organizations where FMC Technologies directors now serve, or during 2002 did serve, as officers or directors. In no case have the amounts involved been material in relation to FMC Technologies’ business or, to the knowledge and belief of FMC Technologies’ management, to the businesses of the other organizations or to the individuals concerned. Such transactions were on terms no less favorable to FMC Technologies than were reasonably available from unrelated third parties.
 
Arrangements Between FMC Technologies And FMC Corporation
 
Through June 14, 2001, FMC Technologies was a wholly-owned subsidiary of FMC Corporation. On June 14, 2001, FMC Technologies completed an initial public offering of 17 percent of its outstanding shares. FMC Corporation retained an 83 percent equity interest in FMC Technologies until December 31, 2001, at which time FMC Corporation completed the separation of FMC Technologies through the tax-free distribution (the “Distribution”) of all of the remaining shares of Common Stock owned by FMC Corporation.
 
Prior to the FMC Technologies’ initial public offering, FMC Corporation and FMC Technologies entered into certain agreements described below for purposes of governing the ongoing relationship between FMC Corporation and FMC Technologies at and after the date of FMC Technologies’ separation from FMC Corporation.
 
Separation and Distribution Agreement. The Separation and Distribution Agreement contains key provisions relating to the separation of FMC Technologies’ businesses from those of FMC Corporation. Under the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, FMC Technologies and FMC Corporation were required to complete a “true-up” process to identify any required adjustments to the original allocation of assets and liabilities at the separation. In conjunction with the completion of the true-up process, FMC Technologies transferred $4.4 million to FMC Corporation in the third quarter of 2002.
 
Indemnification. In general, under the Separation and Distribution Agreement, FMC Corporation and FMC Technologies will indemnify the other party and such party’s representatives and affiliates from all liabilities arising from their respective businesses or contracts, as well as liabilities arising from a breach of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. All indemnification amounts will be reduced by any insurance proceeds or other offsetting amounts recovered by the indemnitee.
 
Tax Sharing Agreement. FMC Technologies and some of its subsidiaries were historically included in FMC Corporation’s consolidated group for U.S. Federal income tax purposes
 
12

 
(the “FMC Corporation Federal Group”), and in certain consolidated, combined or unitary groups which include FMC Corporation and some of its subsidiaries for U.S. state and local and foreign income tax purposes. FMC Corporation and FMC Technologies entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement in connection with the separation of FMC Technologies from FMC Corporation.
 
Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, the amount of taxes to be paid by FMC Technologies with respect to periods prior to the distribution are to be determined as if FMC Technologies and each of its subsidiaries filed its own consolidated, combined or unitary tax returns. With respect to any taxable period in which FMC Technologies or any of its subsidiaries are included in the consolidated, combined or unitary tax returns of FMC Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, FMC Technologies and FMC Corporation will make payments between them to reflect the terms of that agreement.
 
Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, certain actions related to the sale of assets or the sale or issuance of additional securities (including securities convertible into stock) are potentially restricted for a period of 30 months following the Distribution. In general, such actions are not restricted if FMC Technologies obtains (a) a supplemental ruling from the IRS that such actions do not cause the Distribution to be taxable, or (b) an acceptable letter of credit sufficient in amount to cover any potential tax, interest and penalties that result from a determination that such actions cause the Distribution to be taxable. Management does not expect that the restrictions under the Tax Sharing Agreement will significantly limit FMC Technologies’ ability to engage in strategic transactions.
 
Employee Benefits Agreement. FMC Technologies entered into an Employee Benefits Agreement with FMC Corporation that governs FMC Technologies’ employee benefit obligations, including both compensation and benefits, with respect to FMC Technologies’ active employees and retirees and other terminated employees who have performed services for FMC Technologies’ business before or after the separation or whose employee benefit obligations FMC Technologies has otherwise agreed to assume. Under the Employee Benefits Agreement, FMC Technologies assumed and agreed to pay, perform, fulfill and discharge, in accordance with their respective terms, all obligations to, or relating to, former employees of FMC Corporation or its affiliates who are employed by FMC Technologies and FMC Technologies’ affiliates and specified former employees of FMC Corporation or its affiliates (including retirees) who either were employed in FMC Technologies’ businesses before or after the separation or who otherwise were assigned to FMC Technologies for purposes of allocating employee benefit obligations.
 
Transition Services Agreement. A Transition Services Agreement governs the provision of support services by FMC Corporation to FMC Technologies and by FMC Technologies to FMC Corporation. Overall, the terms of these services expired on or prior to December 31, 2002, with the principal exception being the payroll and plan administration services center, which services are expected to cease in 2003.

Termination and Change of Control Arrangements
 
Plan and Participants. As recommended by the Compensation and Organization Committee, the Board of Directors adopted an Executive Severance Plan in 2001. Approximately 20 officers and managers participate in the plan. The participants include all the individuals listed in the Summary Compensation Table.
 
Benefits. If a change in control (as described below) of FMC Technologies occurs and if, within two years of that change of control, a participant’s employment is terminated without cause or a participant voluntarily terminates his or her employment because his or her duties, location, salary, compensation or benefits are changed or are reduced, then the participant is generally entitled to benefits from FMC Technologies. In general, those benefits include: (i) a lump sum payment of three, two or one (depending on position) times annual salary and the greater of (a) the highest annualized target total management incentive award granted for any year, and (b) the average of the actual annualized incentive awards paid for the two plan years immediately preceding the executive’s termination; (ii) a payment equal to prorated target bonus for the year of termination; (iii) immediate vesting of long-term incentive awards, restricted stock and stock options; (iv) continuation of medical and other benefits for up to three years; (v) distribution of accrued nonqualified retirement plan benefits; and (vi) up to an additional three years of credited service for purposes of our nonqualified plans. FMC Technologies will compensate the participant for any excise tax liability as a result of payments under the plan. The Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer can also receive these benefits if they voluntarily terminate their employment with FMC Technologies within the thirteenth month after a change in control of FMC Technologies.
 
Change in Control. In general, the following transactions are considered as changes in control under the plan: (i) a third party’s acquisition of 20 percent or more of Common Stock; (ii) a change in the majority of the Board of Directors; (iii) completion of specified mergers, business combinations or asset purchases or sales (unless after the transaction
 
19

 
(a) the stockholders of FMC Technologies prior to the transaction own more than 60 percent of the resulting entity, (b) members of the FMC Technologies Board of Directors before the transaction constitute a majority of the Board of Directors of the resulting entity, and (c) no person owns 20 percent or more of the outstanding Common Stock or voting securities); or (iv) the complete liquidation or dissolution of FMC Technologies.
 
Report of the Compensation and Organization Committee on Executive Compensation
 
Goals. FMC Technologies’ executive compensation program is designed to align total compensation with stockholder interests. The program:
 
 	·	 	Incents and rewards executives for sound business management and improvement in stockholder value.	
 
 	·	 	Balances its components so that both short- and longer-term operating and strategic objectives are recognized.	
 
 	·	 	Requires achieving objectives within a “high-performance” environment to be rewarded.	
 
 	·	 	Is intended to attract, motivate and retain executives necessary for the long-term success of FMC Technologies.	
 
The program consists of three different compensation components: base salary; variable cash incentive awards; and long-term incentive awards (stock options and restricted stock).
 
Base salary. FMC Technologies uses external surveys to set competitive compensation levels (salary ranges) for its executives. In order to obtain the most relevant survey data for review, the surveys include comparable companies in the industries in which FMC Technologies competes.
 
Salary ranges for FMC Technologies executives are established based on similar positions in other companies of comparable size and complexity. Generally, FMC Technologies sets its competitive salary midpoint for an executive officer at the median level compared with the companies surveyed. Performance levels within the ranges are delineated to recognize different levels of performance ranging from “needs improvement” to “exceptional.” As a result, although nominally targeted to fall at or near the 50th percentile of such comparable organizations, compensation may range anywhere within the salary bracket based on performance.
 
Starting placement in a salary range is a function of an employee’s skills, experience, expertise and anticipated job performance. Each year performance is evaluated against
 
20

 
mutually agreed-upon objectives and performance standards that may, in part, be subjective; a performance rating is established; and a salary increase may be granted. Performance factors used may include timely responses to downturns in major markets; setting strategic direction; making key management changes; divesting businesses and acquiring new businesses; continuing to improve operating efficiency; and developing people and management capabilities. The relative importance of each of these factors varies based on the strategic thrust and operating requirements of each of the businesses.
 
Mr. Netherland last received a base salary increase in June 2002 of 7.0% that placed him at 102.5% of his grade midpoint. His salary will be reviewed in June 2003 using the performance factors listed above.
 
Management Incentive Awards. The FMC Technologies Stock Plan provides for annual cash incentives for achievement of both annual performance incentive targets (“API”) and business performance incentive targets (“BPI”). The Committee oversees FMC Technologies Stock Plan objectives and design as well as the setting of performance targets and approval of FMC Technologies Stock Plan results. Participation in the plan is based on opportunity to influence performance and growth at FMC Technologies, position level, competitive practice for similar positions, performance and potential. Achieving high standards of business and individual performance are rewarded financially, and significant compensation is at risk if these high standards are not met. For participating managers, target incentives vary from 20% to 75% of base salary. BPI payments can range from 0 to 3 times the target incentive, and the BPI is based on improvement of Net Contribution (as defined in the FMC Technologies Stock Plan).
 
In 2002 and 2003, the API comprises 30% and the BPI comprises 70% of the total target incentive for all participants. The annual performance incentive is less quantitative than the business performance incentive. The API varies with individual performance and can range from 0 to 2 times the target percentage. It is awarded based on achieving annual objectives set for the individual’s most important business responsibilities. For Mr. Netherland in 2002, these included such wide-ranging objectives as increased earnings and returns on investment, management of FMC Technologies’ portfolio of businesses, improved operating performance and market position, leadership and people development, safety performance, and communications with employees. Mr. Netherland’s combined BPI and API payment for 2002, shown as Bonus in Column D of the Summary Compensation Table, was $877,547.
 
Equity Awards. The FMC Technologies Stock Plan is designed to link closely the long-term reward of executives with increases in stockholder value. The 2001 approval of the FMC Technologies Stock Plan provides the Committee with broad discretion to select the appropriate types of rewards. Awards in 2002 consisted of grants of non-qualified stock options and restricted stock. The award vesting period for stock options is three years. The
 
21

 
award vesting period for restricted stock granted in 2002 is four years. Stock options have a term of ten years, and the exercise price is the fair market value of common stock on the date of the grant.
 
To determine the number of options and/or shares of restricted stock granted to an executive, we establish an award level based on the executive’s salary grade while considering performance, potential and industry practices as provided by an independent, outside consultant. The total number of awards granted is managed in a manner consistent with FMC Technologies’ guidelines on annual run rates and dilution. Mr. Netherland received no stock option or restricted stock grant in 2002 because his 2001 stock option grant was increased as an incentive to Mr. Netherland to ensure the success of FMC Technologies’ 2001 initial public offering and improve stockholder value.
 
Section 162(m) Deductibility. The Committee continues to review the $1 million cap on tax deductible compensation and is advised that its stock option grants meet the requirements for deductibility. The FMC Technologies Stock Plan, approved in 2001, may not meet all requirements for deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, unless the amounts involved become material, the Committee believes that it is more important to preserve its flexibility under the plan to craft appropriate incentive awards.
 
Stock Retention Policy. FMC Technologies has established guidelines setting expectations for the ownership of FMC Technologies stock by corporate officers. The guidelines for stock retention are based on a multiple of two to five times the employee’s total compensation midpoint. All corporate officers governed by this policy, including all those named in this Proxy Statement, meet or exceed their respective stock retention guidelines.
