PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Honeywell Inc., a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1927, is a
Minneapolis-based international controls corporation that supplies automation
and control systems, components, software, products and services for homes and
buildings, industry, and space and aviation. The purpose of the company is to
develop and apply advanced-technology products, systems and services to conserve
energy, improve productivity, protect the environment, enhance comfort and
increase safety. Development and modification occur continuously in Honeywell's
business as new or improved products and services are introduced, new markets
are created or entered, distribution methods are revised, and products and
services are discontinued.
INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION
Honeywell's products and services are classified by management into three
industry segments: (i) Home and Building Control, (ii) Industrial Control, and
(iii) Space and Aviation Control. Financial information relating to these
industry segments is set forth in Part II, Item 6 at page 10.
HOME AND BUILDING CONTROL
Honeywell's Home and Building Control business provides controls and systems
for building automation, energy management, fire and security, as well as
thermostats, air cleaners and other environmental controls and services for
buildings and homes.
Honeywell manufactures, markets and installs mechanical, pneumatic,
electrical and electronic control products and systems for heating, ventilation
and air conditioning in homes and commercial, industrial and public buildings.
The systems, which may be generic or specifically designed for each application,
may include panels and control systems to centralize mechanical and electrical
functions.
Honeywell also produces building management systems for commercial
buildings, burner and boiler controls, lighting controls, thermostatic radiator
valves, pressure regulators for water systems, thermostats, actuators,
humidistats, relays, contactors, transformers, air-quality products, and gas
valves and ignition controls for homes and commercial buildings. Sales of these
products are made directly to original equipment manufacturers, including
manufacturers of heating and air conditioning equipment, through wholesalers,
distributors, dealers, contractors, hardware stores and home-care centers, and
also through the company's nationwide sales and service organization.
Services provided include indoor air-quality services, central-station
burglary and fire protection services for homes and commercial buildings, video
surveillance, access control and entry management services for commercial
buildings, contract maintenance services for commercial building mechanical and
control systems, automated management of building operations for building
complexes, energy management services, energy retrofit services and training.
INDUSTRIAL CONTROL
The Industrial Control business serves the automation and control needs of
its worldwide industrial customers as a major supplier of products, systems and
services ranging from sensors to integrated systems designed for specific
applications.
Honeywell's Industrial Control segment supplies process control systems and
associated software and services to customers in the refining, petrochemical,
bulk and fine chemical, pulp-and-paper, electric utility, food and consumer
goods, pharmaceutical, metals and transportation markets, as well as other
industries. Honeywell also designs and manufactures process instruments, process
controllers, recorders, programmers, programmable controllers, transmitters and
other field instruments. These products are sold as stand-alone products or
integrated into systems. These products are generally used in indicating,
recording and automatically controlling process variables.
Under the MICRO SWITCH trademark, Honeywell manufactures solid-state sensors
(position, pressure, airflow, temperature and current), sensor interface
devices, manual controls, explosion-
1
proof switches and precision snap-acting switches, as well as proximity,
photoelectric and mercury switches and lighted/unlighted push-buttons. These
products are used in industrial, commercial, business equipment, and in
consumer, medical, automotive, aerospace and computer applications.
Other products include solenoid valves, optoelectronic devices, fiber-optic
systems and components, as well as microcircuits, sensors, transducers and
high-accuracy, noncontact measurement and detection products for factory
automation, quality inspection and robotics applications.
Honeywell also furnishes services, including product and component testing,
instrument maintenance, repair and calibration, contract services for industrial
control equipment and third-party maintenance for CAD/CAM and other industrial
control equipment, training, applications service and a range of customer
support services.
Services are generally sold directly to users on a monthly or annual
contract basis. Products are customarily sold by Honeywell on a delivered,
supervised or installed basis directly to end users, to equipment manufacturers
and contractors, or through third-party channels such as distributors and
systems houses.
SPACE AND AVIATION CONTROL
Honeywell's Space and Aviation Control business supplies avionics for the
commercial, military and space markets. The company designs, manufactures,
services and markets a variety of sophisticated electronic control systems and
components that are used on commercial and business aircraft, military aircraft
and spacecraft.
Products manufactured for aircraft use include ring laser gyro-based
inertial reference systems, navigation and guidance systems, flight control
systems, flight management systems, inertial sensors, air data computers, radar
altimeters, automatic test equipment, cockpit display systems and other
communication and flight instrumentation.
Honeywell products and services have been involved in every major U.S. space
mission since the mid-1960s. Products include guidance systems for launch and
re-entry vehicles, flight and engine control systems for manned spacecraft,
precision components for strategic missiles and on-board data processing. Other
products include spacecraft attitude and positioning systems, and precision
pointing and isolation systems.
Space and Aviation Control products are sold through an integrated
international marketing organization, with customer service centers providing
international service for commercial and business aviation users.

GENERAL INFORMATION
RAW MATERIALS
Honeywell experienced no significant or unusual problems in the purchase of
raw materials and commodities in 1994. Although it is impossible to predict what
effects shortages or price increases may have in the future, at present
management has no reason to believe a shortage of raw materials will cause any
material adverse impact during 1995.
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES AND DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS
Honeywell owns, or is licensed under, a large number of patents, patent
applications and trademarks acquired over a period of many years, which relate
to many of its products or improvements thereon and are of importance to its
business. From time to time, new patents and trademarks are obtained and patent
and trademark licenses and rights are acquired from others. In addition,
Honeywell has distribution rights of varying terms in a number of products and
services produced by other companies. In the judgment of management, such rights
are adequate for the conduct of the business being done by Honeywell. See Item 3
at page 7 for information concerning litigation in which Honeywell is involved
relating to patents.
SEASONALITY
Although Honeywell's business is not seasonal in the traditional sense,
revenues and earnings have tended to concentrate to some degree in the fourth
quarter of each calendar year, reflecting the tendency of customers to increase
ordering and spending for capital goods late in the year.
MAJOR CUSTOMER
Honeywell provides products and services to the United States government as
a prime contractor or subcontractor, the majority of which are described under
the heading "Space and Aviation Control" on page 2. Such business is significant
because of its volume and its contribution to Honeywell's technical
capabilities, but Honeywell's dependence upon individual programs is minimized
by the large variety of products and services it provides. Contracts and
subcontracts for all of such sales are subject to the standard provisions
permitting the government to terminate for convenience or default.
BACKLOG
The total dollar amount of backlog of Honeywell's orders believed to be firm
was approximately $3,340 million at December 31, 1994, and $3,128 million at
December 31, 1993. All but approximately $813 million of the 1994 backlog is
expected to be delivered within the current fiscal year. Backlog is not a
reliable indicator of Honeywell's future revenues because a substantial portion
of backlog represents the value of orders that are cancelable at the customer's
option.
COMPETITION
Honeywell is subject to active competition in substantially all products and
services. Competitors generally are engaged in business on a nationwide or an
international scale. Honeywell is the largest producer of control systems and
products used to regulate and control heating and air conditioning in commercial
buildings, and of systems to control industrial processes worldwide. Honeywell
is also a leading supplier of commercial aviation, space and avionics systems.
Honeywell's automation and control businesses compete worldwide, supported by a
strong distribution network with manufacturing and/or marketing capabilities,
for at least a portion of these businesses, in 95 countries.
Competitive conditions vary widely among the thousands of products and
services provided by Honeywell, and vary as well from country to country.
Markets, customers and competitors are becoming more international in their
outlook. In those areas of environmental and industrial components and controls
where sales are primarily to equipment manufacturers, price/performance is
probably the most significant competitive factor, but customer service and
applied technology are also important. Competition is increasingly being applied
to government procurements to improve price and product performance. In service
businesses, quality, reliability and promptness of service are the most
important competitive factors. Service must be offered from many areas because
of the localized
3
nature of such business. In engineering, construction, consulting and research
activities, technological capability and a record of proven reliability are
generally the principal competitive factors. Although in a small number of
highly specialized products and services Honeywell may have relatively few
significant competitors, in most markets there are many competitors.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
During 1994 Honeywell spent approximately $659.5 million on research and
development activities, including $340.5 million in customer-funded research,
relating to the development of new products or services, or the improvement of
existing products or services. Honeywell spent $742.2 million in 1993 and $703.1
million in 1992 on research and development activities, including $404.8 million
and $390.5 million, respectively, in customer-funded research.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Compliance with current federal, state and local provisions regulating the
discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the
protection of the environment, has not had, and in the opinion of management
will not have, a material effect on Honeywell's financial position, net income,
capital expenditures or competitive position. See Item 7 at page 14 for further
information concerning environmental matters.
EMPLOYEES
Honeywell employed approximately 50,800 persons in total operations as of
December 31, 1994.
GEOGRAPHIC AREAS
Honeywell engages in material operations in foreign countries. A large
majority of Honeywell's foreign business is in Western Europe, Canada and the
Asian Pacific Rim.
Although there are risks attendant to foreign operations, such as potential
nationalization of facilities, currency fluctuation and restrictions on movement
of funds, Honeywell has taken action to mitigate such risks.
Financial information related to geographic areas is included in Note 19 to
the financial statements in Part II, Item 8 at page 36.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On March 13, 1990, Litton Systems, Inc. filed suit against Honeywell in U.S.
District Court, Central District of California, alleging Honeywell patent
infringement relating to the process used by Honeywell to coat mirrors
incorporated in its ring laser gyroscopes; attempted monopolization by Honeywell
of certain alleged markets for products containing ring laser gyroscopes; and
intentional interference by Honeywell with Litton's prospective advantage in
European markets and with its contractual relationships with Ojai Research,
Inc., a California corporation. Honeywell has filed counterclaims against Litton
alleging, among other things, violations by Litton of various antitrust laws
including attempted monopolization of markets for inertial systems and
interference with Honeywell's relationships with suppliers.
The trial of the patent infringement and intentional interference claims
commenced June 4, 1993, and on August 31, 1993, a federal court jury in U.S.
District Court in Los Angeles returned a verdict against Honeywell on each of
these claims and awarded damages in the amount of $1.2 billion and concluded
that the patent infringement was willful. Honeywell contended that the verdict
was unsupported by the facts; that the Litton patent was invalid; and that
Honeywell's process differed from Litton's. The judge in the case held a hearing
November 22, 1993, on various issues including, among others, Honeywell's claims
that the patent was improperly obtained due to alleged "inequitable conduct" on
the part of Litton; Honeywell's other legal and equitable defenses; and Litton's
motion to enhance the damage award. On January 9, 1995, the court issued a
decision in favor of Honeywell, ruling that the Litton patent was unenforceable
because it was obtained by inequitable conduct and invalid because it was an
invention that would have been obvious from combining existing processes. The
court further ruled that if the judgment is subsequently vacated or reversed as
a result of an appeal of the court's ruling, a new trial on the issue of damages
would be held on the ground that the jury's award was inconsistent with the
clear weight of the evidence and to permit it to
7
stand would constitute a miscarriage of justice. Litton has filed a motion to
appeal the court's ruling. The trial for the antitrust claims of Litton and
Honeywell is presently scheduled to commence in November 1995.
Honeywell believes that the court's ruling was correct and continues to
believe that Litton's claims are without merit. As a result, no provision has
been made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability.
Honeywell is a party to other various claims, legal and governmental
proceedings, including claims relating to previously reported environmental
matters. It is the opinion of management that any losses in connection with
these matters and the resolution of the environmental claims will not have a
material effect on net income, financial position or liquidity.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth
quarter of 1994.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The principal U.S. market for Honeywell's common stock is the New York Stock
Exchange. The high and low sales prices for the stock as reported by the
consolidated transaction reporting system, of the two most recent fiscal years
is set forth in Part II, Item 8 at page 43.
Information regarding the frequency and amount of dividends paid by
Honeywell on its common stock during the two most recent years is set forth in
Note 23 to the financial statements in Part II, Item 8 at page 43. Further
information regarding the company's payment of dividends is set forth in Part
II, Item 7 at pages 17 and 18.
In November 1991, as part of Honeywell's program to enhance shareholder
value, the company authorized the repurchase of shares of its common stock in
open market transactions during the next five years for an amount not to exceed
$600 million. In 1992, 1993 and 1994, $189 million, $240 million and $168
million respectively, of share repurchases were made under this program.
Stockholders of record on March 1, 1995 totaled 31,829, excluding individual
participants in security position listings.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
OPERATIONS
SALES
Honeywell's 1994 sales were $6.057 billion, compared with $5.963 billion in
1993 and $6.223 billion in 1992. Sales in the United States of $3.825 billion
were down two percent primarily due to a continuing cyclical downturn in the
Space and Aviation Control commercial aviation market and reduced government
spending. International sales, which represent 37 percent of total sales,
increased eight percent from 1993 to $2.232 billion. The international sales
increase was the result of positive sales growth of seven percent measured in
local currency, along with positive currency effects as the U.S. dollar weakened
an average of one percent against local currencies in countries where Honeywell
does business. U.S. export sales, including exports to foreign affiliates, were
$780 million in 1994, compared with $769 million in 1993 and $830 million in
1992.
COST OF SALES
Cost of sales was $4.082 billion in 1994, or 67.4 percent of sales, compared
with $4.020 billion (67.4 percent) in 1993 and $4.195 billion (67.4 percent) in
1992. Cost as a percentage of sales remained flat for 1994 despite highly
competitive conditions in all sectors of operation. Honeywell continues to
closely monitor all phases of its program to reduce operating costs and improve
margins, and margin expansion is anticipated in 1995.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Honeywell spent $319 million, or 5.3 percent of sales, on research and
development in 1994, compared with $337 million (5.7 percent) in 1993 and $313
million (5.0 percent) in 1992. The higher 1993 percentage reflects significant
investments in next-generation technologies. Honeywell expects to return to
approximately the same rate of R&D spending in 1995 as in 1992. Honeywell also
received $340 million in funds for customer-funded research and development in
1994, compared with $405 million in 1993 and $390 million in 1992.
OTHER EXPENSES AND INCOME
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.174 billion, or 19.4
percent of sales in 1994, compared with $1.076 billion (18.0 percent) in 1993
and $1.197 billion (19.2 percent) in 1992. Excluding royalties from autofocus
licensees (see Note 3 to Financial Statements on page 26), the percent of sales
would have been 19.5 percent, 18.6 percent and 19.5 percent in 1994, 1993 and
1992, respectively. The higher percentage in 1994 was primarily due to increased
legal costs. The higher percentage in 1992 was due to increased international
selling expenses. Royalty income from autofocus licensing agreements is expected
to decline to less than $1 million in 1995 as a result of the expiration of the
related patents.
On April 16, 1993, Honeywell announced the settlement of its lawsuits
against the Unisys Corporation and other parties in connection with Honeywell's
1986 purchase of the Sperry Aerospace Group. Honeywell received $70 million in
cash and notes, and recorded a gain of $22 million, or $14 million ($0.10 per
share) after income taxes, to offset previously incurred costs associated with
the matter (see Note 3 to Financial Statements on page 26).
In April 1987, Honeywell filed suit against Minolta Camera Co. alleging that
Minolta autofocus cameras infringe Honeywell patents. Subsequently, Honeywell
filed similar suits against other major camera manufacturers that employ
autofocus technology. In March 1992, following a jury award in Honeywell's
favor, Minolta agreed to pay Honeywell $127 million in settlement of the damages
and Honeywell's claims for interest and legal fees. In addition to the Minolta
settlement, agreements were reached with various camera manufacturers for their
use of Honeywell's patented automatic focus camera technology. The total of all
autofocus settlements recorded, after associated expenses, was $10 million, or
$6 million ($0.05 per share) after income taxes, in 1993 and $288 million, or
$171 million ($1.24 per share) after income taxes, in 1992 (see Note 3 to
Financial Statements on page 26).
11
Honeywell remains committed to efforts to reduce operating costs and improve
margins. As a result of the identification of additional opportunities to
restructure and streamline operations, Honeywell announced on October 19, 1994,
its intention to record additional special charges in 1994. In December 1994,
Honeywell's management, with the approval of the Board of Directors, committed
itself to a plan of action and recorded special charges of $63 million, or $38
million ($0.29 per share) after income taxes. The actions to be undertaken
include a continuation of right-sizing the Space and Aviation Control business
segment, a worldwide consolidation of manufacturing capacity, a streamlining and
realignment of the overhead structure and corporate expense reductions. Special
charges of $51 million, or $29 million ($0.22 per share) after income taxes,
were recorded in 1993 for productivity initiatives to strengthen the company's
competitiveness. In 1992, special charges of $128 million, or $85 million ($0.62
per share) after income taxes, were recorded to right-size the Space and
Aviation Control business segment and to reposition the Home and Building
Control and Industrial Control business segments to capitalize on emerging
market opportunities. Special charges include costs for work force reductions,
worldwide facilities consolidation and other cost accruals. Work force reduction
costs primarily include severance costs related to involuntary termination
programs instituted to improve efficiency and reduce costs. These costs amounted
to $53 million in 1994, $44 million in 1993 and $65 million in 1992. As a result
of the 1994 plan, approximately 1,500 employees will be terminated. Facilities
consolidation costs are primarily associated with consolidations of branch
office space and product lines to restructure and streamline Honeywell's
operations. These costs amounted to $10 million in 1994, $2 million in 1993 and
$43 million in 1992. Other cost accruals include costs of exiting several
product lines which were no longer considered complementary to Honeywell's
businesses and amounted to $5 million in 1993 and $20 million in 1992.
The estimated cost savings of the restructuring actions in 1994 will exceed
$30 million annually, when fully realized. Special charge accruals remaining to
be paid were $74 million, $79 million and $121 million at December 31, 1994,
1993 and 1992, respectively. Total expenditures amounted to $50 million in 1994,
$93 million in 1993 and $8 million in 1992. Cash flows from operating activities
have funded and are expected to fund all special charges. Further information
about special charges is provided in Note 4 to Financial Statements on page 26.
Net interest expense was $60 million in 1994, $51 million in 1993 and $59
million in 1992. Net interest expense increased in 1994 as a result of higher
market interest rates and higher debt compared with 1993. In 1992, Honeywell
reduced total debt by $108 million, including redemption of high-coupon,
long-term debt. Information concerning Honeywell's exposure to and management of
interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments is
provided on page 19 and in Notes 14 and 15 to Financial Statements on pages 31
and 33, respectively.
Earnings of companies owned 20 percent to 50 percent (primarily
Yamatake-Honeywell Co., Ltd.), which are accounted for using the equity method,
were $11 million in 1994, $18 million in 1993 and $16 million in 1992. The
decline in 1994 primarily resulted from a decline in earnings, the writedown of
assets and a bad debt reserve increase.
INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes was $91 million in 1994, compared with $156
million in 1993 and $235 million in 1992. The 1994 income tax provision has been
reduced by $38 million ($0.29 per share) as a result of a favorable tax
settlement. The enactment by Congress of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1993, which raised the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate for
corporations from 34 percent to 35 percent retroactive to January 1, 1993, did
not have a material impact on the 1993 provision but did result in the
recognition of a one-time gain of $9 million ($0.07 per share) in 1993 from the
revaluation of deferred tax assets. Further information about income taxes is
provided in Note 5 to Financial Statements on page 27.
12
EXTRAORDINARY ITEM
In 1992, Honeywell recorded an extraordinary loss of $14 million, or $9
million ($0.06 per share) after income taxes, as a result of early debt
redemptions that required the payment of premiums and the recognition of
unamortized discounts and deferred costs. These redemptions were undertaken as
part of Honeywell's efforts to reduce its debt and manage its interest rate
exposure.
ACCOUNTING CHANGES
In 1992, Honeywell adopted three new Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 (SFAS 106),
"Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions,"
required recognition of the expected cost of providing postretirement benefits
over the time employees earn these benefits. Before adopting SFAS 106, Honeywell
recognized the costs of providing these benefits on a pay-as-you-go basis by
expensing the cost in the year the benefit was provided. The cumulative effect
of adopting SFAS 106 at January 1, 1992, was a charge to income of $244 million,
or $151 million ($1.09 per share) after income taxes.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting
for Income Taxes," allowed consideration of future events in assessing the
likelihood that tax benefits will be realized in future tax returns. The
cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 at January 1, 1992, was an increase in
income of $31 million ($0.23 per share) resulting from Honeywell's ability to
recognize additional deferred tax assets.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112 (SFAS 112), "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," required that the estimated cost of
providing postemployment benefits be recognized on an accrual basis. The
cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 112 at January 1, 1992, was a charge to
income of $40 million, or $25 million ($0.18 per share) after income taxes.
NET INCOME
Honeywell's net income was $279 million ($2.15 per share) in 1994, compared
with net income of $322 million ($2.40 per share) in 1993 and $247 million
($1.78 per share) in 1992. Net income in 1994 includes an after-tax provision
for special charges of $38 million ($0.29 per share) and a reduction of the
provision for income taxes of $38 million ($0.29 per share) from a favorable tax
settlement. Net income in 1993 includes an after-tax gain from litigation
settlements, after associated expenses, of $20 million ($0.15 per share); an
after-tax provision for special charges of $29 million ($0.22 per share); and a
gain of $9 million ($0.07 per share) from the revaluation of deferred tax
assets. Net income in 1992 includes an after-tax gain from litigation
settlements, after associated expenses, of $171 million ($1.24 per share); an
after-tax provision for special charges of $85 million ($0.62 per share); an
extraordinary loss after income taxes of $9 million ($0.06 per share) from the
early redemption of long-term debt; and an after-tax reduction of $145 million
($1.04 per share) for the cumulative effect of accounting changes.
RETURN ON EQUITY AND INVESTMENT
Return on equity (ROE) was 15.6 percent in 1994, 18.4 percent in 1993 and
13.8 percent in 1992. Return on investment (ROI) was 12.3 percent in 1994, 14.6
percent in 1993 and 11.8 percent in 1992. The adoption of SFAS 106 and SFAS 112
significantly reduced ROE and ROI in 1992.
CURRENCY
The U.S. dollar weakened an average of one percent in 1994 compared with
1993 in relation to the principal foreign currencies in countries where
Honeywell products are sold. A weaker dollar has a positive effect on
international results because foreign-exchange denominated profits translate
into more U.S. dollars of profit; a stronger dollar has a negative translation
effect. Information about Honeywell's exposure to and management of currency
risk through the use of derivative financial instruments is provided on page 19
and in Notes 6, 14 and 15 to Financial Statements on pages 28, 31 and 33,
respectively.
13
INFLATION
Highly competitive market conditions have minimized inflation's impact on
the selling prices of Honeywell's products and the cost of its purchased
materials. Productivity improvements and cost-reduction programs have largely
offset the effects of inflation on other costs and expenses.
EMPLOYMENT
Honeywell employed 50,800 people worldwide at year-end 1994, compared with
52,300 people in 1993 and 55,400 people in 1992. Approximately 31,400 employees
work in the United States, with 19,400 employed outside the country, primarily
in Europe. Total compensation and benefits in 1994 were $2.7 billion, or 47
percent of total costs and expenses. Sales per employee were $118,600 in 1994,
compared with $110,900 in 1993 and $109,600 in 1992.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Honeywell is committed to protecting the environment, a commitment evidenced
by both Honeywell's products and manufacturing operations. Honeywell's
manufacturing sites generate both hazardous and nonhazardous wastes, the
treatment, storage, transportation and disposal of which are subject to various
local, state and federal laws relating to protection of the environment.
Honeywell is in varying stages of investigation or remediation of potential,
alleged or acknowledged contamination at current or previously owned or operated
sites and at off-site locations where its wastes were taken for treatment or
disposal. In connection with the cleanup of various off-site locations,
Honeywell, along with a large number of other entities, has been designated a
potentially responsible party (PRP) by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
or by state agencies under similar state laws (Superfund), which potentially
subjects PRPs to joint and several liability for the costs of such cleanup. In
addition, Honeywell is incurring costs relating to environmental remediation
pursuant to the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. Based on
Honeywell's assessment of the costs associated with its environmental
responsibilities, compliance with federal, state and local laws regulating the
discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the
protection of the environment, has not had and in the opinion of Honeywell
management, will not have a material effect on Honeywell's financial position,
net income, capital expenditures or competitive position. Honeywell's opinion
with regard to Superfund matters is based on its assessment of the predicted
investigation, remediation and associated costs, its expected share of those
costs and the availability of legal defenses. Honeywell's policy is to record
environmental liabilities when loss amounts are probable and reasonably
estimable.
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS BY SEGMENT
HOME AND BUILDING CONTROL
Sales in Home and Building Control were $2.665 billion in 1994, compared
with $2.424 billion in 1993 and $2.394 billion in 1992. Sales in 1994 were up
moderately as U.S. sales continued to benefit from an improving economy and
growing consumer confidence. International sales were aided by the beginnings of
economic recovery internationally. Home Control continued to achieve greater
market penetration with original equipment manufacturers worldwide and to
broaden its product offerings in key markets such as burner boiler control.
Honeywell acquired Metallwerke Neheim Goeke & Co. GmbH, a leading German
manufacturer of water heating control products, to complement its current
offerings in Europe. In addition, there were a number of new product
introductions which included a new line of smart gas valves and integrated
boiler and furnace controls. Building Control experienced continued success with
its comprehensive energy retrofit and service solutions, particularly in the
schools and industrial markets in the United States. Home and Building Control's
large worldwide installed product and service base and market strategies will
continue to support future sales growth.
Sales in 1993 were up slightly from 1992 as stronger U.S. sales were mostly
offset by a stronger U.S. dollar and economic weakness in international markets,
driven in large part by the continuing recession in Europe. Home Control gained
market share in the United States through new product
14
introductions and greater penetration of the OEM market.
TotalHome-Registered Trademark- was introduced outside the United States in
1993. The acquisition of Enviracaire in December 1992 also contributed to the
improvement in U.S. sales. Building Control experienced strong U.S. interest in
its comprehensive energy retrofit and service solutions for schools and other
institutions.
Home and Building Control operating profit was $236 million in 1994,
compared with $233 million in 1993 and $193 million in 1992. Operating profit
included special charges of $29 million in 1994, $10 million in 1993 and $43
million in 1992. Excluding the impact of special charges, operating profit
increased moderately in 1994 benefiting from increasing volume in an improving
U.S. economy and growing consumer confidence. Special charges were incurred in
1994 to consolidate facilities, streamline operations and improve productivity.
Excluding the impact of special charges, operating profit increased slightly
in 1993 despite the deepening European recession, a stronger U.S. dollar,
unfavorable intra-European currency fluctuations, additional costs associated
with streamlining the U.S. field organization, and costs associated with
introducing the new EXCEL 5000-Registered Trademark- building automation
platform in the United States. Special charges were incurred in 1993 and 1992
for implementation of programs to consolidate facilities and improve
productivity.
Orders improved moderately in 1994 for both Home Control and Building
Control, primarily in the United States. Order activity in the targeted segments
of schools and industrial facilities experienced double-digit growth. The
backlog of orders also showed a moderate increase for 1994.
INDUSTRIAL CONTROL
Industrial Control sales were $1.835 billion in 1994, compared with $1.692
billion in 1993 and $1.744 billion in 1992. Excluding year-earlier results of
the Keyboard Division, which was sold in the third quarter of 1993, sales
increased moderately in 1994. Industrial Automation and Control experienced
improving sales for TotalPlant-Registered Trademark- Open Solutions as industry
continues to focus on improving productivity and meeting stringent environmental
and safety regulations worldwide. Sales to the hydrocarbon processing market
were strong as companies invested to comply with the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency regulations for reformulated fuels. Honeywell acquired Allied
Data Communications, Pepperl & Fuchs Systems, and Profimatics during the year
and forged alliances with other companies to expand its TotalPlant Open
Solutions portfolio and provide more one-stop shopping and a broader range of
services to its industrial customers. Sensing and Control (formerly Control
Components) benefited from continued improvements in the U.S. durable goods
market, particularly in the automotive, appliance and information technology
industries. The business introduced SDS Smart Distributed System, a
revolutionary sensor network for distributed machine control. The company
expects continued growth for both Industrial Automation and Control's and
Sensing and Control's systems and products in 1995.
Sales declined slightly in 1993 due to negative currency translation trends
and the divestiture of the Keyboard Division, which was sold to Key Tronic
Corporation in the third quarter of 1993. Excluding these items, both Industrial
Automation and Control and Sensing and Control grew at moderate rates despite
weak conditions in the United States, Europe and Latin America. Industrial
Automation and Control reported solid penetration gains in targeted worldwide
markets despite a weak capital spending environment in the United States and
Europe. Demand for Industrial's systems increased in the Middle East and Asia
Pacific. Sales of field instruments showed a strong increase due to broad
acceptance of Industrial Automation and Control's smart field products. Sensing
and Control experienced significant growth in solid state sensors for on-board
automotive and information technology and appliance market segments as demand
for durable goods improved.
Industrial Control operating profit was $207 million in 1994, $190 million
in 1993 and $157 million in 1992. Operating profit included special charges of
$14 million in 1994, $9 million in 1993 and $39 million in 1992. Excluding the
impact of special charges, operating profit showed a moderate increase as a
result of volume increases in Industrial Automation and Control where
environmental
15
and safety regulations remain key drivers of spending around the world,
particularly in the hydrocarbon processing and chemicals markets; and volume
increases in Sensing and Control where durable goods markets continued to
improve, particularly in the automotive and appliance industries. Special
charges were incurred in 1994 to consolidate facilities, streamline operations
and improve productivity.
Excluding the impact of special charges, operating profit showed a slight
increase in 1993. Profits were affected by the weak capital spending environment
in the United States and Europe, strength of the U.S. dollar and aggressive
investments in new technologies, with R&D spending up 26 percent over 1992.
Special charges were incurred in 1993 and 1992 for implementation of programs to
consolidate facilities and improve productivity.
In 1994, on a comparable basis, Industrial Automation and Control
experienced strong order activity in both the United States and internationally
in such key markets as hydrocarbon and chemical processing. The backlog of
orders was up modestly for the year.
SPACE AND AVIATION CONTROL
Sales in Space and Aviation Control were $1.432 billion in 1994, compared
with $1.675 billion in 1993 and $1.933 billion in 1992. Sales continued to
decline in 1994 as anticipated, reflecting lower commercial aircraft production
rates and reduced government spending. A cyclical recovery of the commercial
aircraft industry is expected in 1996. We believe we have seen the worst of the
decline, and we anticipate flat sales in 1995.
Sales in 1993 declined as a result of the continuing cyclical decline in
commercial aircraft production, weak demand in the business jet market and
decreased spending in the military market.
Space and Aviation Control operating profit was $81 million in 1994,
compared with $148 million in 1993 and $176 million in 1992. Operating profit
included special charges of $20 million in 1994, $7 million in 1993 and $35
million in 1992. Excluding the impact of special charges, there was a sharp
decline in operating profit resulting from lower sales volume and continued
investment in next-generation technology. This was partially offset by favorable
warranty performance and termination settlements in the Military and Space
businesses. Special charges were incurred in 1994 to consolidate facilities,
streamline operations and improve productivity.
Excluding the impact of special charges, operating profit declined in 1993
due to the sharp volume decline in sales of commercial flight systems and
significant investments in next-generation avionics. Special charges were
incurred in 1993 and 1992 for implementation of programs to consolidate
facilities and improve productivity.
Space and Aviation Control orders increased sharply in 1994 as result of
contract awards in Space Systems to provide cockpit displays for the space
shuttle and supply command and data-handling systems for the International Space
Station Alpha, and improved orders in Business and Commuter Aviation driven by a
rebound in the business jet market. The backlog of orders increased moderately
from 1993 levels.
OTHER
Sales from other operations were $125 million in 1994, $172 million in 1993
and $152 million in 1992. These sales included the activities of various units,
such as the Solid State Electronics and the Honeywell Technology research and
development centers, which do not correspond with Honeywell's primary business
segments. Other operations broke even in 1994 and incurred operating losses of
$2 million in 1993 and $9 million in 1992. The 1993 and 1992 losses included
special charges of $16 million and $3 million, respectively, for work force
reductions.

FINANCIAL POSITION
FINANCIAL CONDITION
At year-end 1994, Honeywell's capital structure comprised $361 million of
short-term debt, $501 million of long-term debt and $1.855 billion of
stockholders' equity. The ratio of debt to total capital was 32 percent,
compared with 28 percent at year-end 1993. Honeywell's debt-to-total capital
policy range is 30 to 40 percent. Honeywell managed its capital structure at the
low end of this range during 1994.
Total debt increased $170 million during 1994 to $862 million. The increase
was used to finance general corporate requirements, including capital
expenditures and working capital, and $105 million of acquisitions.
Stockholders' equity increased $82 million in 1994 to $1.855 billion. The
increase was primarily due to an increase in retained earnings of $279 million
from net income, offset by dividends of $126 million, a $55 million increase in
the accumulated foreign currency translation, and a $7 million reduction in the
pension liability adjustment. These increases in stockholders' equity were
partially offset by a $148 million increase in treasury stock.
CASH GENERATION AND DEPLOYMENT
In 1994, $470 million of cash was generated from operating activities,
compared with $475 million in 1993 and $532 million in 1992. The decrease in
1994 was largely due to lower earnings compared with 1993. In 1994, cash
generated from investing and financing activities included $23 million of
proceeds from the sale of assets and $6 million of proceeds from employee stock
plans. These funds were used to support $262 million of capital expenditures,
$126 million of dividend payments and $163 million of share repurchases. Cash
balances increased $25 million in 1994.
WORKING CAPITAL
Cash used for increases in the portion of working capital consisting of
trade and long-term receivables and inventories, offset by accounts payable and
customer advances, was $9 million in 1994. This portion of working capital as a
percentage of sales was 28 percent, which was consistent with 1993. Trade
receivables sold at year-end 1994 were $2 million, a reduction of $36 million in
1994. The increases in receivable and payable balances in 1994 were consistent
with the increase in fourth quarter sales.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND ACQUISITIONS
Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment in 1994 were $262
million, compared with $232 million in 1993 and $244 million in 1992. The 1994
depreciation charges were $235 million. Honeywell continues to invest at levels
believed to be adequate to maintain its technological position in areas
providing value-added long-term returns. During 1994, Honeywell invested $105
million in complementary business acquisitions.
SHARE REPURCHASE PLANS
In November 1991, the Board of Directors authorized a five-year program to
purchase up to $600 million of Honeywell shares. This program was completed in
1994, two years ahead of schedule. Honeywell repurchased $3 million of shares in
1991, $189 million of shares in 1992, $240 million of shares in 1993, and $168
million of shares in 1994.
At year-end 1994, Honeywell had 188 million shares issued, 127 million
shares outstanding and 32,025 stockholders of record. At year-end 1993,
Honeywell had 188 million shares issued, 132 million shares outstanding and
33,382 stockholders of record.
DIVIDENDS
In November 1993, the Board of Directors approved an 8 percent increase in
the regular annual dividend to $0.96 per share, from $0.89 per share, effective
in the fourth quarter 1993. In November 1994, the Board of Directors approved an
additional 4 percent increase in the regular annual
17
dividend to $1.00 per share effective in the fourth quarter 1994. Honeywell paid
$0.97 per share in dividends in 1994, compared with $0.9075 in 1993, and
$0.84125 in 1992. Honeywell has paid a quarterly dividend since 1932 and has
increased the annual payout per share in each of the last 19 years.
EMPLOYEE STOCK PROGRAM
Honeywell contributed 634,561 shares of Honeywell common stock to employees
under its U.S. employee stock match savings plan in 1994. The number of shares
contributed under this program depends on employee savings levels and company
performance.
PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS
Cash contributions to Honeywell's Retirement Plan for U.S. non-union
employees were $86 million in 1994, $105 million in 1993 and $79 million in
1992. Cash contributions to the Pension Plan for U.S. union employees were $40
million in 1994, $36 million in 1993 and $27 million in 1992.
TAXES
In 1994, taxes paid were $79 million. Accrued income taxes and related
interest decreased $11 million during 1994.
FUNDING SPECIAL CHARGES
During 1994, 1993 and 1992, the company established reserves for
productivity initiatives to strengthen the company's competitiveness (see page
12 and Note 4 to Financial Statements on page 26). Future cash flows from
operating activities are expected to be sufficient to fund these accrued costs.
LIQUIDITY
Short-term debt at year-end 1994 was $361 million, consisting of $125
million of commercial paper, $102 million of notes payable and $134 million of
current maturities of long-term debt. Short-term debt at year-end 1993 totaled
$188 million, consisting of $181 million of commercial paper and $7 million of
notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt.
Through its banks, Honeywell has access to various credit facilities,
including committed credit lines for which Honeywell pays commitment fees and
uncommitted lines provided by banks on a non-committed, best-efforts basis.
Available general purpose lines of credit at year-end 1994 totaled $1.076
billion. This consisted of $737 million of committed credit lines to meet
Honeywell's financing requirements, including support of commercial paper and
bank note borrowings, and $339 million of uncommitted credit lines available to
certain foreign subsidiaries. In addition, Honeywell had a $1.2 billion special
purpose credit facility available for an appeal bond that might have been
required in the Litton litigation described in Litigation below. The $1.2
billion facility was canceled in February, 1995.
This compared with $2.272 billion of available credit lines at year-end
1993, consisting of $675 million of committed credit lines for general financing
requirements, $397 million of uncommitted credit lines available to certain
foreign subsidiaries and the $1.2 billion special purpose facility.
In addition to its committed credit lines, Honeywell has access to the
public debt markets as evidenced by its $500 million medium-term note program
which was initiated in August 1994. The medium-term note program allows note
issuances with maturities ranging from nine months to 30 years. At December 31,
1994, $101 million of notes was outstanding under this program. Long-term debt
maturities consist of $133 million in 1995, $185 million in 1996 and $115
million in 1997.
Cash and short-term investments totaled $275 million at year-end 1994 and
$256 million at year-end 1993. Management believes its available cash, committed
credit lines and access to the public debt markets through its medium-term note
program, provide adequate short-term and long-term liquidity.
18
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Honeywell utilizes various foreign currency exchange contracts and interest
rate swaps to manage its exposure to exchange rate (see Notes 6, 14 and 15 to
Financial Statements on pages 28, 31 and 33, respectively) and interest rate
fluctuations and its mix of fixed and floating interest rates (see Notes 14 and
15 to Financial Statements on pages 31 and 33, respectively). At year-end 1994,
the notional amount of outstanding foreign exchange contracts was $1.089
billion. The notional amount of outstanding interest rate swaps was $232
million.
LITIGATION
On August 31, 1993, a federal court jury in the U.S. District Court in Los
Angeles returned a verdict against Honeywell on patent infringement and
intentional interference claims in the amount of $1.2 billion. These claims were
part of a lawsuit brought by Litton Systems, Inc. alleging, among other things,
Honeywell patent infringement relating to the process used by Honeywell to coat
mirrors incorporated in its ring laser gyroscopes. Honeywell contended the
verdict was unsupported by the facts; that the Litton patent was invalid; and
that Honeywell's process differs from Litton's. The judge in the case held a
hearing November 22, 1993, on various issues including, among others,
Honeywell's claims that the patent was improperly obtained due to alleged
"inequitable conduct" on the part of Litton; Honeywell's other legal and
equitable defenses; and Litton's motion to enhance the damage award. On January
9, 1995, the court issued a decision in favor of Honeywell, ruling that the
Litton patent was unenforceable because it was obtained by inequitable conduct
and invalid because it was an invention that would have been obvious from
combining existing processes. The court further ruled that if the judgment is
subsequently vacated or reversed as a result of an appeal of the court's ruling,
a new trial on the issue of damages would be held on the ground that the jury's
award was inconsistent with the clear weight of the evidence and to permit it to
stand would constitute a miscarriage of justice. Litton has filed a motion to
appeal the court's ruling. The trial for the antitrust claims of Litton and
Honeywell is currently scheduled to commence in November 1995.
Honeywell believes that the court's ruling was correct and continues to
believe that Litton's claims are without merit. As a result, no provision has
been made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability.
CREDIT RATINGS
Honeywell's credit ratings remained unchanged during 1994. Ratings for
long-term and short-term debt are, respectively, A/A-1 by Standard and Poor's
Corporation, A/Duff1 by Duff and Phelps Corporation and A3/P-2 by Moody's
Investors Service, Inc. On January 10, 1995, Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
removed Honeywell from credit watch and affirmed the A3/P-2 debt ratings.
Moody's had placed Honeywell on credit watch status on August 31, 1993, as a
result of the jury verdict in the Litton litigation.
STOCK PERFORMANCE
The market price of Honeywell stock ranged from $36 7/8 to $28 1/4 in 1994,
and was $31 1/2 at year
end. Book value per common share at year end was $14.57 in 1994 and $13.48 in
1993.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Stockholders of Honeywell Inc.:
We have audited the statement of financial position of Honeywell Inc. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of
income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1994. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed at
Part IV, Item 14(a)2. These financial statements and the financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We have conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Honeywell Inc. and subsidiaries at December
31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, such
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.
As discussed in Notes 1, 5 and 21 to the financial statements, in 1992 the
Company changed its method of accounting for postemployment benefits, income
taxes and postretirement benefits other than pensions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
HONEYWELL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
NOTE 1 -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying data comprise
Honeywell Inc. and subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions are
eliminated.
SALES
Product sales are recorded when title is passed to the customer, which
usually occurs at the time of delivery or acceptance. Sales under long-term
contracts are recorded on the percentage-of-completion method measured on the
cost-to-cost basis for engineering-type contracts and the units-of-delivery
basis for production-type contracts. Provisions for anticipated losses on
long-term contracts are recorded in full when they become evident.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109 (see Note 5). Interest costs related to prior
years' tax issues are included in the provision for income taxes in 1994 and
1993.
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings per common share are based on the average number of common shares
outstanding during the year.
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
Cash equivalents are all highly liquid, temporary cash investments purchased
with a maturity of three months or less.
Cash flows from purchases and maturities of held-to-maturity securities are
classified as cash flows from investing activities. Cash flows from contracts
used to hedge cash dividend payments from subsidiaries are classified as part of
the effect of exchange rate changes on cash.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
using the weighted-average method. Market is based on net realizable value.
Payments received from customers relating to the uncompleted portion of
contracts are deducted from applicable inventories.
INVESTMENTS
Investments in companies owned 20 to 50 percent are accounted for using the
equity method.
PROPERTY
Property is carried at cost and depreciated primarily using the
straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 10 to 40 years for buildings
and improvements, and three to 15 years for machinery and equipment.
INTANGIBLES
Intangibles are carried at cost and amortized using the straight-line method
over their estimated useful lives of not more than 40 years for goodwill, four
to 17 years for patents, licenses and trademarks, and three to 24 years for
software and other intangibles. Intangibles also include the asset resulting
from recognition of the defined benefit pension plan minimum liability, which is
amortized as part of net periodic pension cost.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
HONEYWELL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
NOTE 1 -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
DERIVATIVES
In 1994, Honeywell adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
119, "Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of
Financial Instruments." Honeywell uses derivative financial instruments such as
foreign currency contracts (forwards, swaps and options) to manage its foreign
currency exposure (see Notes 6, 14 and 15) and interest rate swaps to manage its
exposure to interest rate fluctuations and its mix of fixed and floating
interest rates (see Notes 14 and 15).
The carrying amounts of foreign currency contracts purchased to hedge firm
foreign currency commitments are deferred and included in the measurement of the
related foreign currency transaction. Gains and losses from other foreign
currency transactions are included in selling, general and administrative
expenses on the income statement and were not material in any year.
The amount to be paid or received from interest rate swaps is charged or
credited to interest expense over the lives of the interest rate swap
agreements.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
Foreign currency assets and liabilities are generally translated into U.S.
dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the statement of financial
position date. Results of operations are generally translated using the average
exchange rates throughout the period. The effects of exchange rate fluctuations
on translation of assets, liabilities and hedges of cash dividend payments from
subsidiaries are reported as accumulated foreign currency translation and
increased/(reduced) stockholders' equity $54.5 in 1994, $(3.0) in 1993 and
$(74.8) in 1992.
POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
In 1992, Honeywell adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
112 (SFAS 112), "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." The pre-tax
cumulative effect of this accounting change to January 1, 1992, was $39.7 and
resulted in a reduction in net income of $24.6 ($0.18 per share).
The enactment by Congress of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993,
which made Medicare the primary provider of medical benefits for disabled former
employees after 29 months of disability, reduced the accumulated benefit
obligation for postemployment benefits by $33.4 in 1993. This change in estimate
is included in cost of sales on the income statement.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts in prior years' income statements have been reclassified to
conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 2 -- ACQUISITIONS AND SALE OF ASSETS
Honeywell acquired 15 companies in 1994, eight companies in 1993 and nine
companies in 1992 for $104.6, $14.2 and $83.5 in cash, respectively. These
acquisitions were accounted for as purchases, and accordingly, the assets and
liabilities of the acquired entities have been recorded at their estimated fair
values at the dates of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over the
estimated fair values of the net assets acquired, in the amount of $82.4 in
1994, $11.8 in 1993 and $44.2 in 1992, has been recorded as goodwill and is
amortized over estimated useful lives. The pro forma results for 1994, 1993 and
1992, assuming these acquisitions had been made at the beginning of the year,
would not be significantly different from reported results.

NOTE 2 -- ACQUISITIONS AND SALE OF ASSETS (CONTINUED)
In 1993, Honeywell sold its Keyboard Division to Key Tronic Corporation for
$29.7 in cash, notes and common stock. Proceeds from other asset sales,
including the collection of notes receivable and sale of stock received from
asset sales made in previous years, amounted to $8.6 in 1994, $22.9 in 1993 and
$41.1 in 1992. Gains and losses from asset sales were not material in any year
and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the income
statement.
NOTE 3 -- LITIGATION SETTLEMENTS
On April 16, 1993, Honeywell announced the settlement of its lawsuits
against the Unisys Corporation and other parties in connection with Honeywell's
1986 purchase of the Sperry Aerospace Group. Honeywell received $70.0 in cash
and notes and recorded a gain of $22.4 in 1993 to offset previously incurred
costs associated with the matter. In addition, the portion of the purchase price
originally allocated to goodwill and other intangibles was reduced by $47.6.
Honeywell has reached agreement with various camera manufacturers for their
use of Honeywell's patented automatic focus camera technology. The total of all
one-time settlements recorded in these matters, after associated expenses,
resulted in a gain of $10.2 in 1993 and $287.9 in 1992. Several settlements also
included licensing agreements that require the payment of royalties to Honeywell
based upon the amount of product manufactured or sold by the licensee. Autofocus
royalty income from the licensing agreements amounted to $8.2 in 1994, $31.4 in
1993 and $14.9 in 1992, and is included in selling, general and administrative
expenses on the income statement.
NOTE 4 -- SPECIAL CHARGES
In December 1994, Honeywell's management, with the approval of the board of
directors, committed itself to a plan of action and recorded special charges of
$62.7. Honeywell remains committed to efforts to reduce operating costs and
improve margins. The actions to be undertaken include a continuation of
right-sizing the Space and Aviation Control business segment, a worldwide
consolidation of manufacturing capacity, a streamlining and realignment of the
overhead structure and corporate expense reductions. Special charges of $51.2
were recorded in 1993 for productivity initiatives to strengthen the company's
competitiveness. In 1992, special charges of $128.4 were recorded to right-size
the Space and Aviation Control business segment and to reposition the Home and
Building Control and Industrial Control business segments to capitalize on
emerging market opportunities. Special charges include costs for work force
reductions, worldwide facilities consolidation and other cost accruals.
Work force reduction costs primarily include severance costs related to
involuntary termination programs instituted to improve efficiency and reduce
costs. These costs amounted to $52.4 in 1994, $43.7 in 1993 and $65.1 in 1992.
As a result of the 1994 plan, approximately 1,500 employees will be terminated.
Total expenditures of $36.0 in 1994 included $2.9, $26.4 and $6.7 related to
costs incurred in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Total expenditures of $49.8
in 1993 included $7.8 and $42.0 related to costs incurred in 1993 and 1992,
respectively. Total expenditures amounted to $2.3 in 1992. Special charges of
$5.9 from 1993 and $3.0 from 1992 remain to be paid out as a result of
longer-term agreements.
Facilities consolidation costs are primarily associated with consolidations
of branch office space and product lines to restructure and streamline
Honeywell's operations. These costs amounted to $10.3 in 1994, $2.0 in 1993 and
$42.7 in 1992. Total expenditures of $8.5 in 1994 included $1.6 and $6.9 related
to costs incurred in 1993 and 1992, respectively. Total expenditures of $26.2 in
1993

related to costs incurred in 1992. Total expenditures amounted to $2.0 in 1992.
No expenditures have been made under the 1994 plan. Special charges of $0.4 from
1993 and $4.4 from 1992 remain to be paid out as a result of lease costs
associated with vacated facilities.
Other cost accruals include costs of exiting several product lines which
were no longer considered complementary to Honeywell's businesses and amounted
to $5.5 in 1993 and $20.6 in 1992. Total expenditures of $5.5 in 1994 related to
costs incurred in 1993. Total expenditures of $17.0 in 1993 related to costs
incurred in 1992. Total expenditures amounted to $3.6 in 1992.
Cash flows from operating activities have funded and are expected to fund
all special charges.
NOTE 5 -- INCOME TAXES
The components of income before income taxes consist of the following:
1994 1993 1992
------ ------ ------
Domestic..................................... $208.4 $316.9 $467.7
Foreign...................................... 161.3 161.6 167.0
------ ------ ------
$369.7 $478.5 $634.7
The provision for income taxes on that income is as follows:

------ ------ ------
Current tax expense
United States.............................. $ 33.8 $ 81.7 $140.2

Provision for income taxes................... $ 90.8 $156.3 $234.8
A favorable tax settlement reduced the provision for income taxes by $37.6
($0.29 per share) in the fourth quarter of 1994.
The enactment by Congress of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993,
which raised the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate for corporations from 34
percent to 35 percent retroactive to January 1, 1993, did not have a material
impact on the 1993 provision for income taxes; however, the enactment of this
legislation did result in a one-time gain of $9.2 ($0.07 per share) in 1993 from
the revaluation of deferred tax assets.
In 1992, Honeywell adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes," and elected not to restate prior
years. The cumulative effect of this accounting change to January 1, 1992, was
an increase in net income of $31.4 ($0.23 per share), resulting from the
recognition of unrecorded deferred tax assets.

Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the
financial reporting basis and the tax basis of Honeywell's assets and
liabilities. Temporary differences comprising the net deferred taxes shown on

Deferred tax liabilities..................... 197.6 161.6
Provision has not been made for U.S. or additional foreign taxes on $711.0
of undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries, as those earnings are
considered to be permanently reinvested in the operations of those subsidiaries.
It is not practicable to estimate the amount of tax that might be payable on the
eventual remittance of such earnings.
At December 31, 1994, foreign subsidiaries had tax operating loss
carryforwards of $14.7.
NOTE 6 -- FOREIGN CURRENCY
Honeywell has entered into various foreign currency exchange contracts
(primarily Belgian francs, Deutsche marks and Canadian dollars) designed to
minimize its exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency
transactions. Honeywell only uses foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge
underlying exposures such as non-functional currency receivables and payables
and foreign currency imports and exports. Company policy prohibits speculation
in foreign currency contracts.
28
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
HONEYWELL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
NOTE 6 -- FOREIGN CURRENCY (CONTINUED)
Foreign exchange contracts reduce Honeywell's overall exposure to exchange
rate movements, since the gains and losses on these contracts offset losses and
gains on the assets, liabilities and transactions being hedged. Honeywell hedges
a significant portion of all known foreign exchange exposures. The notional
amount of Honeywell's outstanding foreign currency contracts, consisting of
forwards, purchased options and swaps, at December 31, 1994, was approximately
$1,088.6. The remaining term of the contracts is generally less than one year.
The amount of hedging gains and losses deferred was not material at December 31,
1994.
NOTE 7 -- INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES
In 1994, Honeywell adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," which
specifies certain accounting and reporting for investments in equity securities
that have readily determinable fair values and for all investments in debt
securities.
Honeywell's investments in held-to-maturity securities totaled $144.4 at
December 31, 1994, and are reported at amortized cost in the statement of
financial position as follows: cash equivalents, $124.9; short-term investments,
$6.6; and investments and advances, $12.9. Held-to-maturity securities generally
mature within one year and include the following: time deposits with financial
institutions, $116.2; commercial paper, $12.0; and other, $16.2. During 1994,
Honeywell purchased $233.9 of held-to-maturity securities. Proceeds from
maturities of held-to-maturity securities amounted to $233.0. Honeywell has no
investments in trading securities, and available-for-sale securities are not
material. The estimated aggregate fair value of these securities approximates
their carrying amounts in the statement of financial position. Gross unrealized
holding gains and losses are not material.
NOTE 8 -- RECEIVABLES
Receivables have been reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts as
follows:
1994 1993
--------- ---------
Receivables, current............................................... $ 31.1 $ 24.3
Long-term receivables.............................................. 0.7 0.5
Receivables include approximately $21.9 in 1994 and $21.1 in 1993 billed to
customers but not paid pursuant to contract retainage provisions. These balances
are due upon completion of the contracts, generally within one year.
Unbilled receivables related to long-term contracts amount to $295.9 in 1994
and $275.6 in 1993 and are generally billable and collectible within one year.
Long-term, interest-bearing notes receivable from the sale of assets have
been reduced by valuation reserves of $1.9 in 1994 and $3.6 in 1993 to an amount
that approximates realizable value.
In 1992, Honeywell entered into a three-year agreement with a large
international banking institution, whereby it can sell an undivided interest in
a designated pool of trade accounts receivable up to a maximum of $50.0 on an
ongoing basis and without recourse. As collections reduce accounts receivable
sold, Honeywell may sell an additional undivided interest in new receivables to
bring the amount sold up to the $50.0 maximum. Proceeds received from the sale
of receivables are included in cash flows from operating activities in the
statement of cash flows and amounted to $34.4 in 1994, $193.7 in 1993 and $30.9
in 1992. The uncollected balance of receivables sold amounted to $2.4 and $37.9
at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively, and averaged $4.2 and $21.7 during
those respective years. The discount recorded on sale of receivables is included
in selling, general and

NOTE 14 -- DEBT
SHORT-TERM DEBT
Honeywell had general purpose lines of credit available totaling $1,075.8 at
December 31, 1994. Domestic revolving credit lines with 21 banks total $737.0,
which management believes is adequate to meet its financing requirements,
including support of commercial paper and bank note borrowings. These domestic
lines have commitment fee requirements. There were no borrowings on these lines
at December 31, 1994. The remaining credit facilities of $338.8 have been
arranged by non-U.S. subsidiaries in accordance with customary lending practices
in their respective countries of operation. Borrowings against these lines
amounted to $3.1 at December 31, 1994. The weighted-average interest rate on
short-term borrowings outstanding at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively,
was as follows: commercial paper, 5.7 percent and 3.3 percent; and notes
payable, 5.8 percent and 10.1 percent.
Short-term debt consists of the following:

The 8 percent dual-currency yen/U.S. dollar notes due 1995 are repayable at
a fixed exchange rate and are linked to a currency exchange agreement that
results in a fixed U.S. dollar interest cost of 10.5 percent.
The 6 1/4 percent Deutsche mark bonds due 1997 are linked to a currency
exchange agreement that converts principal and interest payments into fixed U.S.
dollar obligations with an interest cost of 8.17 percent.
In August 1994, Honeywell initiated a $500.0 medium-term note program
whereby it may issue notes with maturities of nine months to 30 years
denominated in U.S. dollars or foreign currencies with fixed or variable
interest rates. Honeywell issued $100.5 of U.S. dollar fixed-rate medium-term
notes in 1994.
Honeywell utilizes interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate exposures
and its mix of fixed and floating interest rates. In 1992, Honeywell entered
into interest rate swap agreements effectively converting $100.0 of its 8 5/8
percent debentures due 2006 from fixed-rate debt to floating-rate debt based on
six-month LIBOR rates. During 1993, $50.0 of the $100.0 swap was terminated
resulting in a gain of $0.9, which is being amortized over the remaining life of
the swap agreement. In 1993, Honeywell entered into interest rate swap
agreements effectively converting the 9.6 percent Canadian dollar notes due 1996
to floating-rate debt based on three-month Canadian bankers acceptance rates. In
1994, Honeywell entered into interest rate swap agreements effectively
converting $30.0 of medium-term notes due 1998 and $70.5 of medium-term notes
due 1999 to floating rate debt based on three-month LIBOR rates. These swap
agreements expire in September 1995 for the 8 5/8 percent debentures, December
1996 for the 9.6 percent Canadian dollar notes, and for the medium-term notes:
$10.0 in March 1998, $20.0 in May 1998, $50.0 in August 1999 and $20.5 in
September 1999.
In 1992, Honeywell redeemed its 9 3/8 percent debentures due 2005 to 2009,
its 8.2 percent debentures due 1996 to 1998, its 9 7/8 percent debentures due
1998 to 2017, and certain notes due 1993 to 2004, amounting to $9.6 with
interest rates ranging from 7.5 percent to 11.75 percent. These early
redemptions required the payment of premiums and the recognition of unamortized
discounts and

deferred cost resulting in the recording of an extraordinary loss of $13.8, or
$8.6 ($0.06 per share) after income taxes. Honeywell redeemed an additional $5.9
of notes due 1993 to 2000 with interest rates ranging from 10 percent to 12.1
percent in 1993 with no additional income statement impact.
Annual sinking-fund and maturity requirements for the next five years on
long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 1994, are as follows:
1995............................................... $ 133.4
1996............................................... 185.2
1997............................................... 114.9
1998............................................... 30.2
1999............................................... 70.9
Interest paid amounted to $69.1, $63.9 and $98.5 in 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.
NOTE 15 -- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
All financial instruments are held for purposes other than trading. The
estimated fair values of all nonderivative financial instruments approximate
their carrying amounts in the statement of financial position with the exception
of long-term debt. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted
market prices for the same or similar issues or on current rates available to
Honeywell for debt of the same remaining maturities. The carrying amount of long
term debt was $634.9 and $504.3 at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively;
and the fair value was $630.3 and $569.0 at December 31, 1994, and 1993,
respectively.
The carrying amount of interest rate swaps was zero and $0.3 at December 31,
1994, and 1993, respectively. The gross unrealized market (loss)/gain on
interest rate swaps was $(7.5) and $2.8 at December 31, 1994, and 1993,
respectively. The carrying amount of foreign currency contracts was $18.3 and
$10.4 at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively. The gross unrealized market
gain on foreign currency contracts was $26.6 and $19.9 and the gross unrealized
market loss was $28.3 and zero at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively. The
estimated fair value of interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts,
which is the gross unrealized market gain or loss, is based primarily on quotes
obtained from various financial institutions that deal in these types of
instruments.
Honeywell is exposed to credit risk to the extent of nonperformance by the
counterparties to the foreign currency contracts and the interest rate swaps
discussed above. However, the credit ratings of the counterparties, which
consist of a diversified group of financial institutions, are regularly
monitored and risk of default is considered remote.

KEY EMPLOYEE PLANS
In 1993, the board of directors adopted, and the stockholders approved, the
1993 Honeywell Stock and Incentive Plan. The plan, which terminates December 31,
1998, provides for the award of up to 7,500,000 shares of common stock. The
purpose of the plan is to further the growth, development and financial success
of Honeywell and its subsidiaries by aligning the personal interests of key
employees, through the ownership of shares of common stock and through other
incentives, to those of Honeywell stockholders. The plan is further intended to
provide flexibility to Honeywell in its ability to compensate key employees and
to motivate, attract and retain the services of such key employees who have the
ability to enhance the value of Honeywell and its subsidiaries. Awards made
under the plan may be in the form of stock options, restricted stock or other
stock-based awards. The plan replaced existing similar plans, and awards
currently outstanding under those plans were not affected. There were 10,539,718
shares reserved for all key employee plans at December 31, 1994.
Options to purchase common stock have been granted to key employees at 100
percent of the market price on the date of grant, pursuant to
stockholder-approved plans. The following is a summary of existing stock options
under all plans:
1994 1993 1992

Options totaling 4,390,382 shares at prices ranging from $15 to $38 were
exercisable at December 31, 1994.
Restricted shares of common stock are issued to certain key employees as
compensation. Restricted shares are awarded with a fixed restriction period,
usually five years, or with a restriction period that may be shortened dependent
on the achievement of performance goals within a specified measurement period.
Participants have the rights of stockholders, including the right to receive
cash dividends and the right to vote. Restricted shares forfeited revert to
Honeywell at no cost. Restricted shares issued totaled 141,376 in 1994, 533,995
in 1993 and 47,812 in 1992. The cost of restricted stock is charged to income
over the restriction period and amounted to $5.6 in 1994, $6.3 in 1993 and $6.5
in 1992. At December 31, restricted shares outstanding pursuant to key employee
plans totaled 767,209 in 1994, 775,861 in 1993 and 412,872 in 1992.
EMPLOYEE STOCK MATCH AND STOCK PURCHASE PLANS
In 1990, Honeywell adopted Stock Match and Performance Stock Match plans
under which Honeywell matches, in the form of Honeywell common stock, certain
eligible U.S. employee savings
35

HONEYWELL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
NOTE 17 -- CAPITAL STOCK (CONTINUED)
plan contributions. Shares issued under the stock match plans totaled 634,561
shares in 1994, 643,913 shares in 1993 and 977,716 shares in 1992 at a cost of
$20.7, $22.3 and $33.3, respectively. There were 1,713,734 shares reserved for
employee stock match plans at December 31, 1994.
Honeywell has granted to eligible foreign subsidiary employees the right to
purchase common stock, principally at the lower of 85 percent of the market
price at the time of grant or at the time of purchase. Total shares issued under
the foreign stock purchase plans amounted to 49,250 in 1992 at an average price
per share of $33. There were no shares issued in 1994 or 1993 under these plans.
STOCK PLEDGE
In 1993, Honeywell pledged to the Honeywell Foundation a five-year option to
purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $33 per share. This option is
transferable to charitable organizations and exercisable in whole or in part,
subject to certain conditions, from time to time during its term. No shares were
purchased under this option in 1994 or 1993 and at December 31, 1994, there were
2,000,000 shares reserved for this pledge.
PREFERENCE STOCK
Twenty-five million preference shares with a par value of $1 per share have
been authorized. None has been issued at December 31, 1994.

NOTE 20 -- PENSION PLANS
Honeywell and its subsidiaries have noncontributory defined benefit pension
plans that cover substantially all of their U.S. employees. The plan covering
non-union employees provides pension benefits based on employee average earnings
during the highest paid 60 consecutive calendar months of employment during the
10 years prior to retirement. The plan covering union employees provides pension
benefits of stated amounts for each year of credited service. Funding for these
plans is provided solely through contributions from Honeywell determined by the
board of directors after consideration of recommendations from the plans'
independent actuary. Such recommendations are based on actuarial valuations of
benefits payable under the plans.
The components of net periodic pension cost for U.S. defined benefit pension
plans are as follows:
1994 1993 1992
--------- --------- ---------
Service cost of benefits earned during the period.................. $ 53.8 $ 48.3 $ 48.1

Employees in foreign countries who are not U.S. citizens are covered by
various retirement benefit arrangements, some of which are considered to be
defined benefit pension plans for accounting purposes. The cost of all foreign
pension plans charged to income was $1.2 in 1994, $14.2 in 1993 and $9.0 in
1992.

intangible asset to the extent of unrecognized prior service cost and
unrecognized transition obligation. At December 31, 1994, $9.6 of excess minimum
liability resulted in a reduction in stockholders equity, net of income taxes,
of $5.9. At December 31, 1993, $21.0 of excess minimum liability resulted in a
reduction in stockholders equity, net of income taxes, of $12.8.

NOTE 20 -- PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED)
Plan assets are held by trust funds devoted to servicing pension benefits
and are not available to Honeywell until all covered benefits are satisfied
after a plan is terminated. The assets held by the trust funds consist of a
diversified portfolio of fixed-income investments and equity securities.
NOTE 21 -- POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
In 1992, Honeywell adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
106 (SFAS 106), "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than
Pensions," which requires recognition of the expected cost of providing
postretirement benefits over the time employees earn the benefits.
Substantially all of Honeywell's domestic and Canadian employees who retire
from Honeywell between the ages of 55 and 65 with 10 or more years of service
are eligible to receive health-care benefits, until age 65, identical to those
available to active employees. Honeywell funds postretirement benefits on a
pay-as-you-go basis.
Honeywell elected to immediately recognize the cumulative effect of this
change in accounting for postretirement benefits for both U.S. and Canadian
plans, reducing net income by $151.3 ($1.09 per share). The pre-tax cumulative
effect of $244.1 represents the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
(APBO) existing at January 1, 1992, less $11.3 related to discontinued product
lines recorded in prior years.
The components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost are as follows:
1994 1993 1992
----- ----- -----
Service cost of benefits earned during the period........... $10.4 $11.5 $10.5
Interest cost on accumulated post-retirement benefit
obligation................................................. 18.0 22.2 20.9
Net amortization............................................ 0.5
----- ----- -----
$28.9 $33.7 $31.4
The amounts recognized in Honeywell's statement of financial position are as
follows:
1994 1993
------ ------
Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation:
Retirees.................................................. $ 87.7 $ 86.6
Fully eligible active plan participants................... 58.7 41.5
Other active plan participants............................ 151.8 129.9
Unrecognized prior service cost........................... (7.7)
Unrecognized net gain..................................... 2.3 25.7
------ ------
Accrued postretirement benefit cost......................... $292.8 $283.7
The discount rate used in determining the APBO was 8.0 percent in 1994 and
7.0 percent in 1993. The assumed health-care cost trend rate used in measuring
the APBO was 10.1 percent in 1995, then declining by 0.6 percent per year to an
ultimate rate of 5.5 percent. The health-care cost trend rate assumption has a
significant effect on the amounts reported. For example, a 1 percent increase in
the health-care trend rate would increase the APBO by 11 percent at December 31,
1994, and the net periodic postretirement benefit cost by 14 percent for 1994.
NOTE 22 -- CONTINGENCIES
LITTON LITIGATION
On March 13, 1990, Litton Systems, Inc. filed suit against Honeywell in U.S.
District Court, Central District of California, alleging Honeywell patent
infringement relating to the process used by Honeywell to coat mirrors
incorporated in its ring laser gyroscopes; attempted monopolization by
41
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
HONEYWELL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
NOTE 22 -- CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
Honeywell of certain alleged markets for products containing ring laser
gyroscopes; and intentional interference by Honeywell with Litton's prospective
advantage in European markets and with its contractual relationships with Ojai
Research, Inc., a California corporation. Honeywell has filed counterclaims
against Litton alleging, among other things, violations by Litton of various
antitrust laws including attempted monopolization of markets for inertial
systems and interference with Honeywell's relationships with suppliers.
The trial of the patent infringement and intentional interference claims
commenced June 4, 1993, and on August 31, 1993, a federal court jury in U.S.
District Court in Los Angeles returned a verdict against Honeywell on each of
these claims and awarded damages in the amount of $1,200.0 and concluded that
the patent infringement was willful. Honeywell contended that the verdict was
unsupported by the facts; that the Litton patent was invalid; and that
Honeywell's process differed from Litton's. The judge in the case held a hearing
November 22, 1993, on various issues including, among others, Honeywell's claims
that the patent was improperly obtained due to alleged "inequitable conduct" on
the part of Litton; Honeywell's other legal and equitable defenses; and Litton's
motion to enhance the damage award. On January 9, 1995, the court issued a
decision in favor of Honeywell, ruling that the Litton patent was unenforceable
because it was obtained by inequitable conduct and invalid because it was an
invention that would have been obvious from combining existing processes. The
court further ruled that if the judgment is subsequently vacated or reversed as
a result of an appeal of the court's ruling, a new trial on the issue of damages
would be held on the ground that the jury's award was inconsistent with the
clear weight of the evidence and to permit it to stand would constitute a
miscarriage of justice. Litton has filed a motion to appeal the court's ruling.
The trial for the antitrust claims of Litton and Honeywell is currently
scheduled to commence in November 1995.
Honeywell believes that the court's ruling was correct and continues to
believe that Litton's claims are without merit. As a result, no provision has
been made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Honeywell's manufacturing sites generate both hazardous and nonhazardous
wastes, the treatment, storage, transportation and disposal of which are subject
to various local, state and national laws relating to protection of the
environment. Honeywell is in varying stages of investigation or remediation of
potential, alleged or acknowledged contamination at current or previously owned
or operated sites and at off-site locations where its wastes were taken for
treatment or disposal. In connection with the cleanup of various off-site
locations, Honeywell, along with a large number of other entities, has been
designated a potentially responsible party (PRP) by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act or by state agencies under similar state laws (Superfund),
which potentially subjects PRPs to joint and several liability for the costs of
such cleanup. In addition, Honeywell is incurring costs relating to
environmental remediation pursuant to the federal Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act. Based on Honeywell's assessment of the costs associated with its
environmental responsibilities, compliance with federal, state and local laws
regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise
relating to the protection of the environment, has not had, and in the opinion
of Honeywell management, will not have a material effect on Honeywell's
financial position, net income, capital expenditures or competitive position.
Honeywell's opinion with regard to Superfund matters is based on its assessment
of the predicted investigation, remediation and associated costs, its expected
share of those costs and the availability of legal defenses. Honeywell's policy
is to record environmental liabilities when loss amounts are probable and
reasonably estimable.

losses in connection with these matters will not have a material effect on
Honeywell's net income, financial position or liquidity.

ARTICLE I.
MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS
SECTION 1. ANNUAL MEETINGS. The annual meeting of the stockholders of
Honeywell Inc. (hereinafter called the Corporation) for the election of
directors and for the transaction of any other proper business, notice of which
is given in the notice of the meeting, shall be held on such date and at such
hour as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors, which
date and hour shall be designated in the notice thereof. If any annual meeting
for the election of directors shall not be held on the date designated therefor,
the Board of Directors shall cause the meeting to be held as soon thereafter as
convenient.
SECTION 2. ADVANCE NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDER-PROPOSED BUSINESS AT ANNUAL
MEETINGS. At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be
conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly
brought before an annual meeting, business must be specified in the notice of
meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board,
otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the
Board, or otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder. In
addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be properly
brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must have
given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary, Honeywell Inc. To be
timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at
the principal executive offices of the
2
Corporation, not less than 50 days nor more than 75 days prior to the meeting;
provided, however, that in the event that less than 65 days' notice or prior
public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders,
notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the
close of business on the 15th day following the day on which such notice of the
date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. A
stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the
stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (i) a brief description
of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons
for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and record
address of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number
of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder,
and (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such business.
Notwithstanding anything in the By-Laws to the contrary, no business shall
be conducted at the annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this Section 2, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing in this Section 2 shall
be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of any business properly
brought before the annual meeting in accordance with said procedure.
The Chairman of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine
and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the
meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2, and if he should so
determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly
brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.
SECTION 3. SPECIAL MEETINGS. A special meeting of the stockholders for any
purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Board of Directors, or by
the Chairman of the
3
Board of Directors, or by the President of the Corporation, or as otherwise
prescribed by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation of
the Corporation.
SECTION 4. PLACE OF MEETING. Meetings of the stockholders (including
annual meetings, special meetings, meetings for the election of directors, and
any and all other meetings of stockholders) may be held at such places, within
or without the State of Delaware, as may be designated from time to time by the
Board of Directors or in the notices thereof. The Board of Directors is
authorized to and shall fix the place of meeting. Such action by the Board of
Directors may be taken from time to time and may fix different places from time
to time.
SECTION 5. NOTICES OF MEETINGS. Every stockholder shall furnish the
Secretary of the Corporation with an address at which notices of meetings and
all other corporate communications may be served on or mailed to him. Except in
special cases with respect to which other provision is made by statute or by the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, and except in those situations
in which action is to be taken pursuant to Section 1 of Article II, written or
printed notice of each meeting of the stockholders, whether annual or special,
shall be given, not less than ten (10) nor more than fifty (50) days before the
date on which the meeting is to be held, to each stockholder of record of the
Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting by delivering such notice thereof
to him personally or by depositing such notice in the United States mail, in a
postage-prepaid envelope directed to him at the post office address furnished by
him to the Secretary of the Corporation for such purpose, or, if he shall not
have furnished to the Secretary of the Corporation his address for such purpose,
then at his address as it shall otherwise appear on the records of the
Corporation. Except in special cases where other provision is made by statute,
no publication of any notice of a meeting of stockholders shall be required.
Every notice of a
4
meeting of stockholders shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting and
the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Nevertheless, notice of
any meeting of stockholders shall not be required to be given to any stockholder
who shall attend such meeting in person or by proxy except a stockholder who
shall attend such meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning
of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not
lawfully called or convened. Except where otherwise required by statute, notice
of any adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall not be
required to be given if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting
which is adjourned.
SECTION 6. QUORUM. At all meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation,
except where other provision is made by statute, stockholders of the Corporation
holding of record a majority of the shares of stock of the Corporation entitled
to vote thereat shall be present in person or by proxy to constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business. In the absence of a quorum at any meeting or
any adjournment thereof, a majority in voting interest of those present in
person or by proxy and entitled to vote may adjourn such meeting from time to
time. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum may be present any
business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as
originally called. The absence from any meeting of stockholders holding the
number of shares of stock of the Corporation required by statute or by the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation or by these by-laws for action
upon any given matter shall not prevent action at such meeting upon any other
matter or matters which may properly come before the meeting, if there shall be
present thereat in person or by proxy stockholders holding the number of shares
of stock of the Corporation required in respect of such other matter or matters.

of the Board of Directors, or in his absence the Vice Chairman of the Board of
Directors, or in their absence the President of the Corporation, or in the
absence of the Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman of the Board and the
President of the Corporation, a chairman (who shall be one of the other
Executive Vice Presidents or Vice Presidents, if any of them be present) chosen
by a majority in voting interest of the stockholders present in person or by
proxy and entitled to vote, shall act as chairman; and the Secretary of the
Corporation or, in his absence, an Assistant Secretary or, in the absence of the
Secretary and Assistant Secretaries of the Corporation, any person whom the
chairman of the meeting shall appoint, shall act as secretary of the meeting.
SECTION 8. ORDER OF BUSINESS. The order of business at all meetings of the
stockholders shall be determined by the chairman of the meeting, but such order
of business may be changed by the vote of a majority in voting interest of those
present or represented at said meeting and entitled to vote thereat.
SECTION 9. VOTING. Each stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote at
a meeting of stockholders or entitled to give consent in writing to corporate
action without a meeting shall have one vote in person or by proxy for each
share of stock having voting rights held by him and registered in his name on
the books of the Corporation:
(a) on the date fixed pursuant to the provisions of Subsection (a) of
Section 5 of Article VI of these by-laws as the record date for the
determination of stockholders who shall be entitled to notice of and to
vote at such meeting or to give consent in writing to corporate action
without a meeting, or
6
(b) if no such record date shall have been so fixed, then as provided
by the provisions of Subsection (b) of Section 5 of Article VI of these
by-laws.
Shares of its own capital stock belonging to the Corporation or to another
corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of
directors of such other corporation is held by the Corporation, shall not be
entitled to vote. Persons holding stock in a fiduciary capacity shall be
entitled to vote the shares so held, and persons whose stock is pledged shall be
entitled to vote, unless in the transfer by the pledgor on the books of the
Corporation he shall have expressly empowered the pledgee to vote thereon, in
which case only the pledgee or his proxy may represent said stock and vote
thereon. If shares shall stand of record in the names of two or more persons,
whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common,
tenants by the entirety or otherwise, or if two or more persons shall have the
same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary of
the Corporation shall have been given written notice to the contrary and have
been furnished with a copy of the instrument of order appointing them or
creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to
voting shall have the following effect:
(i) if only one shall vote, his act shall bind all,
(ii) if more than one shall vote, the act of the majority so voting
shall bind all, or
(iii) if more than one shall vote, but the vote shall be evenly
split on any particular matter, then, except as otherwise required by
statute, each faction may vote the shares in question proportionally.
If the instrument so filed shall show that any such tenancy is held in unequal
interests, a majority or even-split for the purpose of the next preceding
sentence shall be a majority or
7
even-split in interest. Any vote on stock of the Corporation may be given by the
stockholder entitled thereto in person or by his proxy appointed by an
instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by his attorney
thereunto authorized and delivered to the secretary of the meeting; provided,
however, that no proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its
date unless said proxy provides for a longer period. Except as provided in
Section 1 of Article II and Section 13 of Article III of these by-laws, and
except also in special cases where otherwise made mandatory by statute or by the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, all matters coming before the
stockholders shall be decided by the vote of a majority in voting interest of
the stockholders of the Corporation present in person or by proxy at a meeting
and entitled to vote thereat, a quorum being present.
SECTION 10. LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS. It shall be the duty of the Secretary,
or other officer of the Corporation who shall have charge of the stock ledger,
either directly or through a transfer agent appointed by the Board of Directors,
to prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a
complete list of stockholders entitled to vote thereat, arranged in alphabetical
order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares
registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the
examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during
ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the
meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held,
which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so
specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be
produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time
thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. Upon the wilful
neglect or refusal of the directors to produce such a list at any meeting for
the election of directors, they shall be ineligible for election to any office
at
8
such meeting. The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are
stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, such list or the books of the
Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy, at any meeting of stockholders.
SECTION 11. INSPECTORS OF ELECTION. At each meeting of the stockholders,
the chairman of such meeting may appoint two Inspectors of Election to act
thereat. Each Inspector of Election so appointed shall first subscribe an oath
or affirmation faithfully to execute the duties of an Inspector of Election at
such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.
Such Inspectors of Election, if any, shall take charge of the ballots at such
meeting and after the balloting thereat on any question shall count the ballots
cast thereon and shall make a report in writing to the secretary of such meeting
of the results thereof. An Inspector of Election need not be a stockholder of
the Corporation, and any officer or employee of the Corporation may be an
Inspector of Election on any question other than a vote for or against his
election to any position with the Corporation or on any other question in which
he may be directly interested.
ARTICLE II.
CONSENTS TO CORPORATE ACTION
SECTION 1. CONSENT OF STOCKHOLDERS IN LIEU OF MEETING. The election of
directors and any other action required by the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware or these by-laws to be taken at any annual or special meeting
of stockholders, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special
meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior
notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so
taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than
the
9
minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such
action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present
and voted. Separate written consents may be signed by stockholders severally.
Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less
than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not
consented in writing.
SECTION 2. RECORD DATE. The record date for determining stockholders
entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting
shall be as fixed by the Board or as otherwise established under this Section.
Any person seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action
by written consent without a meeting may, by written notice addressed to the
Secretary and delivered to the Company as set forth below, request that a record
date be fixed for such purpose. The record date for determining stockholders
entitled to consent in writing without a meeting to corporate action for which
no prior action by the Board is required under the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware shall be (i) the date fixed by the Board or (ii) if no
record date has been so fixed prior to the first date on which a signed written
consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to
the Company by delivery to its registered office in Delaware, its principal
place of business or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of
the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded, then
such first date. The record date for determining stockholders entitled to
consent in writing without a meeting to corporate action for which prior action
by the Board is required under the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware shall be (i) the date fixed by the Board or (ii) if the Board has not
taken action to fix the record date then such record date shall be the close of
business on the date upon which the Board adopts the resolution taking such
prior action. In connection with a record date fixed by the Board, in
10
no case shall such record date (i) precede or (ii) be fixed more than 10 days
after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by
Board.
SECTION 3. PROCEDURES. In the event of the delivery to the Corporation of
a written consent or consents purporting to authorize or take corporate action
and/or related revocations (each such written consent and related revocation is
referred to in this Article II as a "Consent"), the Secretary of the Corporation
shall provide for the safe-keeping of such Consent and shall promptly conduct
such ministerial review of the sufficiency of the consents and of the validity
of the action to be taken by stockholder consent as he deems necessary or
appropriate including, determining whether the holders of shares having the
requisite voting power to authorize or take the action specified in the Consent
have given consent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the corporate action to which the
Consent relates is the removal or replacement of one or more members of the
Board, the Secretary of the Corporation shall designate two persons, who may not
be members of the Board, to serve as Inspectors with respect to such Consent and
such Inspectors shall discharge the functions of the Secretary of the
Corporation under this Section 3. If after such investigation the Secretary or
the Inspectors (as the case may be) shall determine that the Consent is valid
and that the action purported to be authorized or taken has been validly
authorized, that fact shall be noted on the records of the Corporation kept for
the purpose of recording the proceedings of meetings of stockholders, and the
Consent shall be filed in such records, at which time the Consent shall become
effective as stockholder action. In conducting the investigation required by
this Section 3, the Secretary or the Inspectors (as the case may be) may, at the
expense of the Corporation, retain special legal counsel and other necessary or
appropriate professional advisors, and such other personnel as they may deem
necessary or appropriate, to assist them.

time by giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board of Directors or to

that in the event the Nominating Committee determines that it will be in the
best interests of the Company for the former Chief Executive Officer to continue
as a director, the Committee may ask him or her to continue as a director

SECTION 16. COMMITTEES.
(a) There shall be an Executive Committee which shall have such

Corporation who shall be appointed by the Chairman of the Board of
Directors provided, however, that each such appointment shall be reported
promptly to the Board of Directors and no member of a committee shall
participate in any action by a committee which shall constitute an exercise
of a power of the Board until the appointment of such member has been

be filled by appointment by the Chairman of the Board of Directors in the
same manner in which original appointments to such committee were made. The
chairman of each committee shall be designated by the Chairman of the Board
of Directors. A majority of those entitled to vote at any meeting of any
committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at that

any such absent or disqualified member.
19
SECTION 17. INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.
(a) Any person who is or was an employee, officer or director of the
Corporation, or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit
plans, which he served as such at the request of the Corporation, shall,
unless prohibited by law, be indemnified by the Corporation in accordance
with paragraph (b) below, against reasonable expenses, paid or incurred by
him in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit or
proceeding (whether brought by or in the right of the Corporation or
otherwise), civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including any
appeal therein in which he may be involved, or threatened to be involved,
as a party or otherwise, by reason of the fact he is or was an employee,
officer or director, provided such person acted, in good faith, in what he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the
Corporation or such other corporation or organization and, in addition,
with respect to any criminal actions or proceedings, had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, provided further the Corporation
shall indemnify any such person in connection with a claim, action, suit or
proceeding initiated by such person only if such matter was authorized by
the Board of Directors, and provided further no indemnification shall be
made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the
extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit
was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication
of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person
is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the
Court of Chancery or such other court
20
shall deem proper. The termination of any claim, action, suit or
proceeding, by judgment, settlement (whether with or without court
approval), adverse decision or conviction after trial or upon a plea of
guilty or of NOLO CONTENDERE, or its equivalent, shall not create a
presumption that such person did not meet the standards of
conduct set forth in this paragraph (a). As used in this Section 17 the
term "expenses" shall include, but not be limited to, counsel fees and
disbursements, amounts of judgments, fines or penalties against, and
amounts paid in settlement by, such person.
(b) To the extent that any person claiming indemnification under
paragraph (a) of this Section 17 has been successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in defense of any claim, action, suit or proceeding of the
character described in paragraph (a), he shall be reimbursed by the
Corporation for the amounts of all reasonable expenses paid or incurred by
him in connection with such successful defense. Any person claiming
indemnification under said paragraph (a) shall be reimbursed by the
Corporation for his reasonable expenses if (i) the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to
such claim, action, suit or proceeding shall deliver to the Corporation its
written findings that such person is entitled to reimbursement under the
provisions of said paragraph or (ii) if such a quorum is not attainable, or
even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs,
independent legal counsel (who may be regular counsel for the Corporation)
selected by the Board of Directors shall deliver to the Corporation written
advice that, in their judgment, such person is so entitled.
(c) Any expenses incurred by an officer or director with respect to
any claim, action, suit or proceeding of the character described in
paragraph (a) of this Section 17 may be advanced by the Corporation prior
to the final
21
disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
behalf of the person to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined
that he is not to be indemnified under this Section 17. Such expenses
incurred by other employees may be so paid upon such terms and conditions,
if any, as the Board of Directors shall determine to be appropriate.
(d) The rights of indemnification provided in this Section 17 shall
be in addition to any other rights to which any such person may otherwise
be entitled by contract or as a matter of law; and such rights shall
continue as to a person who has ceased to be an employee, officer or
director and, in the event of such person's death, shall extend to his
heirs and legal representatives.
SECTION 18. ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. Any action required or permitted to be
taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may
be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board or of such committee, as
the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are
filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or of such committee.
SECTION 19. PRESENCE AT MEETINGS. Members of the Board of Directors or of
any committee designated by it may participate in a meeting of such Board or
committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment
by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other,
and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 19 shall constitute
presence in person at such meeting.

INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PAYMENTS
As an incentive to efficient and profitable management, there is hereby
authorized to be set aside for payment, for any fiscal year, beginning with the
year 1954, as additional compensation to officers, heads of departments and
other executives and key employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries whose
work most affects the Corporation's earnings, amounts which, in the aggregate,
shall not exceed 3% of the consolidated net income during such year of the
Corporation and its subsidiaries, before deducting Federal or state taxes based
on income and before any provision for such additional compensation, provided
that no such additional compensation shall be paid for any year unless cash
dividends shall be paid in that year on the Common Stock of the Corporation at
the rate of at least $2 per share as constituted at January 1, 1954. Such
consolidated net income shall exclude, to the extent that the Committee
hereinafter mentioned shall in its discretion deem proper, the whole or any part
of any item of unusual or non-recurring income or loss not arising in the
ordinary course of business. Such aggregate amounts of
38
additional compensation for any fiscal year shall be in addition to deferred
portions of additional compensation authorized for a prior year or years.
Subject to the foregoing limitations (which shall not be changed without the
approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding stock of the
Corporation having general voting power), the total amount of additional
compensation, if any, that may be authorized for any year, the participants in
such additional compensation, the apportionment thereof among such participants
and the time or times of payment thereof shall be determined by a Committee of
the Board of Directors consisting of not less than three nor more than five of
those Directors who are not entitled to share in the payments or who shall have
advised the Board of Directors in writing that they irrevocably have elected not
to participate in the payments, as the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall
appoint to such Committee from time to time. Said Committee, which shall act by
a majority of its members, shall be authorized to determine that any award to
any participant for any year shall be paid at one time or to direct the payment
of all or any part thereof in such deferred installments over a period of not
exceeding ten consecutive years commencing not later than the tenth year
following the year for which the award was made, the payment of any such
deferred installments to be subject to such conditions, if any, with respect to
the continued employment of the participant, his refraining from competing with
the Corporation or otherwise, as the Committee shall determine. Said Committee
shall also be authorized to determine that any payment to be made to any
participant in any year shall be made in cash or partly in cash and partly in
Common Stock of the Corporation purchased in the open market for that purpose,
in such proportions as the Committee shall determine, such stock being valued
for such purpose at the mean price thereof on the New York Stock Exchange on
such date as the Committee shall determine. The total amount authorized under
this Article for
39
any year shall be reported to the stockholders at or before the annual meeting
of stockholders following such year. The provisions of this Article shall not be
deemed to preclude such forms of incentive compensation for other employees of
the Corporation as shall be authorized from time to time by the Board of
Directors.
ARTICLE XIII.
NATIONAL EMERGENCY
SECTION 1. DEFINITION AND APPLICATION. For the purposes of this Article
XIII the term "national emergency" is defined as an emergency situation
resulting from an attack upon the United States, a nuclear disaster within the
United States, a catastrophe, or other emergency condition, as a result of which
attack, disaster, catastrophe or emergency condition a quorum of the Board of
Directors cannot readily be convened for action. Persons not directors of the
Corporation may conclusively rely upon a determination by the Board of Directors
of the Corporation, at a meeting held or purporting to be held pursuant to this
Article XIII that a national emergency as hereinabove defined exists regardless
of the correctness of such determination made or purporting to be made as
hereinafter provided. During the existence of a national emergency the
provisions of this Article XIII shall become operative, but, to the extent not
inconsistent with such provisions, the other provisions of these by-laws shall
remain in effect during any national emergency and upon its termination the
provisions of this Article XIII shall cease to be operative.
SECTION 2. MEETINGS, ETC. When it is determined in good faith by any
director that a national emergency exists, special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be called by such director. The director calling any such special
meeting shall make a reasonable effort to notify all other directors of
40
the time and place of such special meeting, and such effort shall be deemed to
constitute the giving of notice of such special meeting, and every director
shall be deemed to have waived any requirement, of law or otherwise, that any
other notice of such special meeting be given. At any such special meeting two
directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business including,
without limiting the generality hereof, the filling of vacancies among directors
and officers of the Corporation and the election of additional Vice Presidents,
Assistant Secretaries and Assistant Treasurers. The act of a majority of the
directors present thereat shall be the act of the Board of Directors. If at any
such special meeting of the Board of Directors there shall be only one director
present, such director present may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a
quorum is obtained, and no further notice thereof need be given of any such
adjournment.
The directors present at any such special meeting shall make reasonable
effort to report any action taken thereat to all absent directors, but failure
to give such report shall not affect the validity of the action taken at any
such meeting. All directors, officers, employees and agents of, and all persons
dealing with, the Corporation, if acting in good faith, may conclusively rely
upon any action taken at any such special meeting.
SECTION 3. AMENDMENT. The Board of Directors shall have the power to
alter, amend, or repeal any of these by-laws by the affirmative vote of at least
two-thirds (2/3) of the directors present at any special meeting attended by two
(2) or more directors and held in the manner prescribed in Section 2 of this
Article, if it is determined in good faith by said two-thirds (2/3) that such
alteration, amendment or repeal would be conducive to the proper direction of
the Corporation's affairs.
41
SECTION 4. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER. If, during the existence of a national
emergency, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Corporation becomes
incapacitated, cannot by reasonable effort be located or otherwise is unable or
unavailable to perform the duties of his office, the Vice Chairman of the Board
of Directors of the Corporation is hereby designated as Chairman of the Board of
Directors. If the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors is unable or
unavailable to perform the duties of the Chairman of the Board, unless otherwise
determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of this
Article XIII, the senior available officer of the Corporation is hereby
designated as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the
seniority of such officer to be determined in order of rank of office and within
the same rank by the date on which he was first elected or appointed to such
office.
SECTION 5. SUBSTITUTE DIRECTORS. To the extent required to constitute a
quorum at any meeting of the Board of Directors during a national emergency, the
officers of the Corporation who are present shall be deemed, in order of rank of
office and within the same rank in order of election or appointment to such
offices, directors for such meeting.
ARTICLE XIV.
AMENDMENTS
The Board of Directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized (except
as otherwise provided in these by-laws) to make by-laws for the Corporation and
from time to time to alter or repeal by-laws so made but the by-laws made or
altered by the Board of Directors may be altered or repealed by the stockholders
at any annual or special meeting thereof, provided that notice of the proposal
so to alter or repeal such by-laws be included in the notice of such meeting.

tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing,
and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and,
where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or
instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or
instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture
and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company,
if made in the manner provided in this Section.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by
law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer's
individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of such signer's authority. The fact and date of the execution
of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the
same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.
(c) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register.
The Company may fix any day as the record date for the purpose of determining
the Holders of Securities of any series entitled to give or take any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, or
to vote on any action, authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders
of Securities of such series. If not set by the Company prior to the first
solicitation of a Holder of Securities of such series made by any Person in
respect of any such action, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such
vote, the record date for any such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if
later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided
pursuant to Section 701) prior to such first solicitation or vote, as the case
may be. With regard to any record date for action to be taken by the Holders of
one or more series of Securities, only the Holders of Securities of such series
on such date (or their duly designated proxies) shall be entitled to give or
take, or vote on, the relevant action.
-11-
(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the
same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of
transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in
reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security.
SECTION 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company.
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be
made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,
(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient
for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing
to or with a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Department, or
(2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient
for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company
addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the
first paragraph of this instrument (Attention: Treasurer) or at any other
address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.
SECTION 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.
Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected
by such event, at such Holder's address as it appears in the Security Register,
not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is
given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any
notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice
in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to
receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be
the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with
the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity
of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.
-12-
In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of
any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such
notification as shall be made by or with the approval of the Trustee shall
constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.
SECTION 107. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.
This Indenture is subject to, and shall be governed by, the provisions of
the Trust Indenture Act that are required to be part of this Indenture. If any
provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust
Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this
Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this
Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may
be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to
this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.
SECTION 108. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.
The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.
SECTION 109. Successors and Assigns.
All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company or the
Trustee shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.
SECTION 110. Separability Clause.
In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
SECTION 111. Benefits of Indenture.
Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall
give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, any Authenticating Agent, any
Paying Agent, any Securities Registrar, and their successors hereunder and the
Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this
Indenture.
-13-
SECTION 112. Governing Law.
This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
SECTION 113. Legal Holidays.
Except as may be otherwise specified with respect to any particular
Securities, in any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or
Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of
Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the
Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be
made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect
as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated
Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after
such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may
be.

time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders
of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each
series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of
such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the
Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.
Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive
and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of
any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Security.
[IF THE SECURITY IS AN ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT SECURITY, -- In determining
whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent or waiver under the Indenture or whether a quorum is present at a
meeting of Holders of Securities, the principal amount of any Original Issue
Discount Security that shall be deemed to be Outstanding shall be the amount of
the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such
determination upon the acceleration of the Maturity thereof.]
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is

currency, herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set

agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this
series and of like tenor of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of [$1,000] and any amount in excess thereof which is
an integral multiple of [$1,000]. As provided in the Indenture and subject to
certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are
exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series
and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be

Certificate setting forth the terms of the series.
With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering,
such Board Resolution and Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture may
provide general terms or parameters for Securities of such series and provide
either that the specific terms of particular Securities of such series shall be
specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the
Company or its agents in accordance with other procedures specified in a Company
Order as contemplated by the third paragraph of Section 303.
-25-
SECTION 302. Denominations.
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Officers' Certificate or
supplemental indenture, the Securities of each series shall be issued in
registered form without coupons in such denominations as shall be specified as
contemplated by Section 301. In the absence of any such provisions with respect
to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series shall be issuable
in denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral
multiple of $1,000.
SECTION 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.
The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman
of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, under its corporate
seal affixed thereto or reproduced thereon attested by its Secretary or one of
its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the
Securities may be manual or facsimile.
Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities.
At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Securities, or, in the case of Securities
offered in a Periodic Offering, from time to time in accordance with such other
procedures (including, without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of
electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents, promptly
confirmed in writing by the Company) acceptable to the Trustee as may be
specified from time to time by a Company Order for establishing the specific
terms of particular Securities being so offered, and the Trustee in accordance
with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the
form or forms or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by
or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201 and
301, in authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional
responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,
-26-
(a) that the form or forms of such Securities have been established
in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
(b) that the terms of such Securities have been established in
conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
(c) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and
legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with
their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other
laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights and to general equity principles;
(d) that authentication and delivery of such Securities and the
execution and delivery of the supplemental indenture, if any, by the
Trustee will not violate the terms of the Indenture;
(e) that the Company has the corporate power to issue such
Securities, and has duly taken all necessary corporate action with respect
to such issuance; and
(f) that the issuance of such Securities will not contravene the
certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or result in any
violation of any of the terms or provisions of any law or regulation or of
any indenture, mortgage or other agreement known to such Counsel by which
the Company is bound;
provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series offered in a
Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such Opinion of
Counsel in connection only with the first authentication of each form of
Securities of such series and that the opinions described in Clauses (b) and (c)
above may state, respectively, that
(b) if the terms of such Securities are to be established pursuant
to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures as may be specified from
time to time by a Company Order, all as contemplated by a Board Resolution
or action taken pursuant thereto, such terms will have been duly authorized
by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this
Indenture; and
-27-
(c) that such Securities, when executed by the Company, completed,
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this
Indenture, and issued and delivered by the Company and paid for, all in
accordance with any agreement of the Company relating to the offering,
issuance and sale of such Securities, will be duly issued under this
Indenture and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the
Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws relating to or
affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights and to general
principles of equity.
With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the
Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such
Securities, the form or forms and terms thereof and the legality, validity,
binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel, Company
Order and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 and this
Section, as applicable, in connection with the first authentication of a form of
Securities of such series and it shall not be necessary for the Company to
deliver such Opinion of Counsel and other documents (except as may be required
by the specified other procedures, if any, referred to above) at or prior to the
time of authentication of each Security of such series unless and until the
Trustee receives notice that such Opinion of Counsel or other documents have
been superseded or revoked, and may assume compliance with any conditions
specified in such Opinion of Counsel (other than any conditions to be performed
by the Trustee). If such form or forms or terms have been so established, the
Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of
such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights,
duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a
manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.
Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.
No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any
Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security
has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall
have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 309 together with a written statement (which
need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the
Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never
to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled
to the benefits of this Indenture.
-28-
SECTION 304. Temporary Securities.
Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any Series, the Company
may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise
produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers
executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such
Securities.
If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary
Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of
like tenor of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such
series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that
series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one
or more temporary Securities of any series the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal
amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor and of any
authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any
series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor.
SECTION 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.
The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee a register (the "Security Register") in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby
appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Securities and
transfers of Securities as herein provided.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series
at the office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment for such series,
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees) one or more new Securities of
the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate
principal amount and tenor.
-29-
At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for
other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a
like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Securities to
be exchanged at the office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment for
such series. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same
debt and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for
exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed,
or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or
such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than
exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer.
The Company may but shall not be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at
the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of
redemption of Securities of that series selected for redemption under Section
1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to
register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in
whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed
in part.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified a contemplated
by Section 301, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to this
Section 305 for Securities registered in the name of Persons other than the
Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such
Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the
Trustee a Company Order that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable or
(iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with
respect to the Securities of such series. Upon the occurrence in respect of any
Global Security of any series of any one or more of the conditions specified in
Clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence or such
-30-
other conditions as may be specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such
series, such Global Security may be exchanged for Securities not bearing the
legend specified in Section 205 and registered in the names of such Persons as
may be specified by the Depositary (including Persons other than the
Depositary).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Security
may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such Global
Security to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the
Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary.
SECTION 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.
If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to
their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii)
such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and
any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal
amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become
or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.
Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.
Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of
any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or
stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with
any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.
-31-
The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.
SECTION 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.
Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to
any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid
to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered in the Security Register at the close of business on
the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date.
Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable but is not
punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date (herein called
"Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the
relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such
Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:
(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest
to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their
respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business
on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which
shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the
Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid
on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and
at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of
money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when
deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee
shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the
date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by
the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall
promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name
and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to
be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of
such series at such Holder's address as it appears in the Security
Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice
of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
-32-
the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such
series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the
close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be
payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).
(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with
the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be
listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after
notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant
to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange
for, or in lieu of, any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.
SECTION 308. Persons Deemed Owners.
Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name such Security is registered in the Security Register as the
owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and
premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security and for
all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and
neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held on its
behalf by a Depositary (or its nominee) shall have any rights under this
Indenture with respect to such Global Security or any Security represented
thereby, and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, and any
agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Security or any
Security represented thereby for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein shall prevent the
Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving
effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a
Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial
interest, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the
rights of the Depositary (or its nominees) as Holder of any Security.
-33-
SECTION 309. Cancellation.
All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of
transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if
surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee
and shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the
Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may
deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for
cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company
has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly
canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in
exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as
expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the
Trustee shall be destroyed unless otherwise directed by a Company Order.
SECTION 310. Computation of Interest.
Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities
of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
SECTION 311. Payment to be in Proper Currency.
In the case of any Securities denominated in any currency (the "Required
Currency") other than United States of America dollars, except as otherwise
provided therein, the obligation of the Company to make any payment of
principal, premium or interest thereon shall not be discharged or satisfied by
any tender by the Company, or recovery by the Trustee, in any currency other
than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery
shall result in the Trustee timely holding the full amount of the Required
Currency then due and payable. If any such tender or recovery is in a currency
other than the Required Currency, the Trustee may take such actions as it
considers appropriate to exchange such currency for the Required Currency. The
costs and risks of any such exchange, including without limitation the risks of
delay and exchange rate fluctuation, shall be borne by the Company, the Company
shall remain fully liable for any shortfall or delinquency in the full amount of
Required Currency then due and payable, and in no circumstances shall the
Trustee be liable therefor except in the case of its negligence or willful
misconduct.

ARTICLE FIVE
REMEDIES
SECTION 501. Events of Default.
"Event of Default", wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any
series, and unless otherwise provided with respect to Securities of any series
pursuant to Section 301(12), means any one of the following events (whatever
the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or
involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment,
decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any

on) any Security of that series at its Maturity; or
(3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as

(4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or
warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or
warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in
this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included
in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of one or more
Securities other than that series), and continuance of such default or
breach for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered
or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the
Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such
default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such
notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or
(5) an event of default, as defined in any indenture or instrument
under which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have outstanding
at least $10,000,000 aggregate principal amount of indebtedness for money
borrowed, shall happen and be continuing and such indebtedness shall, as a
result thereof, have been accelerated so that the same shall be or become
due and payable prior to the date on which the same would otherwise have
become due and payable, and such acceleration shall not be rescinded or
annulled within 10 days after notice thereof shall have been given, by
registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee, or to the
Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding; provided,
however, that if such event of default under such indenture or instrument
shall be remedied or cured by the Company or waived by the Holders of such
indebtedness, then, unless the Securities of any series shall have been
accelerated as provided herein, the Event of Default hereunder by reason
thereof shall be deemed likewise to have been thereupon remedied, cured or
waived without further action upon the part of either the Trustee
or any Holders of the Securities of any series; or
(6) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A)
a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary
case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order
adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly
filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal
or State law, or

sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any
substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or
liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or
order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect
for a period of 60 consecutive days; or
(7) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding
under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency,

case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of
any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing
by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief
under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the
filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by
a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other
similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property,
or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the
admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in
furtherance of any such action; or
(8) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities
of that series.
SECTION 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.
If an Event of Default with respect to Outstanding Securities of any series
occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders
of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any of the Securities of
that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such lesser portion of the
principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof) of
all of the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and
upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified portion thereof)
shall become immediately due and payable.
-40-
At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
Outstanding Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or
decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as
hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice
to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences if
(1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay
(A) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series,
(B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities
of that series which have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Securities,
(C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed
therefor in such Securities, and
(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 607; and
(2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series,
other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series
which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been
cured or waived as provided in Section 513.
No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon.
SECTION 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.
The Company covenants that if
(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security
when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for
a period of 30 days, or
-41-
(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,
the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of such Security, the whole amount then due and payable on such Security
for principal (and premium, if any) and interest and, to the extent that payment
of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal
(and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Security, and, in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection,
including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel.
If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the
Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same
against the Company or any other obligor upon such Security and collect the
moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of
the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Security, wherever
situated.
If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce
its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such
appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to
protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any
covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.
SECTION 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.
In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their
creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on
the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,
-42-
(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and
premium, if any) or such portion of the principal amount of any series of
Original Issue Discount Securities as may be specified in the terms of such
series and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to
file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee
under Section 607) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding,
and
(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities
or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
SECTION 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.
All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may
be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and
any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after
provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and for any
other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been
recovered.
-43-
SECTION 506. Application of Money Collected.
Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be
applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and,
in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium,
if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation
thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if
fully paid:
FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under
Section 607; and
SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities in
respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected,
ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if
any) and interest, respectively; and
THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled
thereto.
SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits.
No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute
any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for
the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder,
unless
(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee
of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that
series;
(2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to
the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default
in its own name as Trustee hereunder;
(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable
indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
compliance with such request;
(4) the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity, has failed to institute any such
proceeding; and
-44-
(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series;
it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have
any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of
such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in
the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such
Holders.
SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and
Interest.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any
Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307)
interest on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in
such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall
not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.
SECTION 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.
If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or
to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter
all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though
no such proceeding had been instituted.
SECTION 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.
Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of
Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee
or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and
in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or
-45-
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.
SECTION 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.
No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or
an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law
to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case
may be.
SECTION 512. Control by Holders.
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the
Securities of such series, provided that
(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture, and
(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.
SECTION 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.
The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Securities of any series may, on behalf of the Holders of all
the Securities of such series, waive any past default hereunder with respect to
such series and its consequences, except a default
(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on any Security of such series, or
(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article
Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
each Outstanding Security of such series affected.
-46-
The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the
purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any past default hereunder.
If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly
designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to waive any
default hereunder, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record
date; provided, that unless such majority in principal amount shall have waived
such default prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such
waiver of such default previously given shall automatically and without further
action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect.
Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of
Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose
of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
default or impair any right consequent thereon.
SECTION 514. Undertaking for Costs.
All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by
such Holder's acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court
may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or
remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant
in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such
court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant;
provided, however, that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any
suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate
more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series,
or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of
the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after
the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).
SECTION 515. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.
The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it
will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law
and covenants that it will
-47-
not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted.

Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding
of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series;

other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under
no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as
otherwise agreed with the Company.
SECTION 607. Compensation and Reimbursement.
The Company agrees
(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation
for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee
of an express trust);
(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the
Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision
of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses
and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad
faith; and

The obligations of the Company under this Section 607 to compensate and
indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder

additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Securities upon

of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal,
State or District of Columbia authority. If such Corporation publishes reports
of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the
combined capital and surplus of such Corporation shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. Neither
the Company, nor any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or
under common control with the Company, shall act as Trustee hereunder.
SECTION 610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 611.

one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall

notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect
to the Securities of such series.

adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its
property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of
rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,
then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the
Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 514, any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months
may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all
Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.
(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting,
or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect
to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution,
shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the
Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor
Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all
of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal
or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so
appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance
with the applicable requirements of Section 611, become the successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the
successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or
the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 611, any
Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least
six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
-53-
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing
written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all
Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the
Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate
Trust Office.
SECTION 611. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.
(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal
of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request
of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon
payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and
shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.
(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the
retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto
wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall
contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and
confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that
or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2)
if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall
contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm
that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with
respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring
Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and
(3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be
necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts
hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or
in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of
the
-54-
same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts
hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by
any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental
indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become
effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor
Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such
retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with
respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of
such successor Trustee relates. Whenever there is a successor Trustee with
respect to one or more (but less than all) series of securities issued pursuant
to this Indenture, the terms "Indenture" and "Securities" shall have the
meanings specified in the provisos to the respective definitions of those terms
in Section 101 which contemplate such situation.
(c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute
any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming
to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in
paragraph (a) and (b) of this Section, as the case may be.
(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under
this Article.
SECTION 612. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.
Any Corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
Corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
Corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated,
but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger,
conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such
authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect
as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities; in case
any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated by the Trustee then in
office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such Trustee
may authenticate such Securities either in the name of such predecessor
hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all
-55-
such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in
the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee
shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Securities in the
name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors
by merger, conversion or consolidation.
SECTION 613. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.
The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a). A Trustee which has
resigned or been removed is subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent
indicated therein.
SECTION 614. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.
At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding the Trustee,
with the concurrence of the Company, may appoint an Authenticating Agent or
Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such
series, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if
authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this
Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the
Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of
the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be
acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a Corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof
or the District of Columbia authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating
Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State or District of Columbia
authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital
and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.
-56-
Any Corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an
Authenticating Agent, provided such Corporation shall be otherwise eligible
under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.
An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate
the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written notice of
such appointment by first class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of
Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will
serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any
successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent.
No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the
provisions of this Section.
The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.
If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to
this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in
addition to the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternate
certificate of authentication in the following form:

SECTION 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of
Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented
or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or
upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture
may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location and any change in the location of such office or agency. If at any time
the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall
fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent
to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.
The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices
or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or
surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such
designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in
any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency
in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The
Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation
or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or
agency.
SECTION 1003. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.
If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect
to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities of that
series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto a sum in the currency in which such series of Securities is payable
sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming
due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as
herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so to act.
Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of
Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if
any) or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a
sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so
becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent
is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so
to act.
-66-
The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other
than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of
this Section, that such Paying Agent will:
(1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of
(and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid
to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;
(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any
payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of
that series; and
(3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon
the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums
so held in trust by such Paying Agent.
The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by
the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the
same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such
Paying Agent, and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such
Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such
money.
Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years
after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and
payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the
Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for
payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the
expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in
the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general
circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such
money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall
not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company on Company
Request.
-67-
SECTION 1004. Existence.
Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence,
rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the
Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss
thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.
SECTION 1005. Maintenance of Properties.
The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its
business or the business material to be maintained and kept in good condition,
repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will
cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so
that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and
advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this
Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the operation or
maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment
of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business and not disadvantageous
in any material respect to the Holders.
SECTION 1006. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.
The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before
the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental
charges levied or imposed upon it or upon its income, profits or property, and
(2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might
by law become a lien upon its property; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company
shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any
such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is
being contested in good faith.
SECTION 1007. Restriction on Secured Debt.
(a) The Company will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any notes, bonds, debentures or
other similar
-68-
evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed (notes, bonds, debentures or other
similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed being hereinafter in this
Article called "Debt"), secured by pledge of, or mortgage or other lien on, any
Principal Property, now owned or hereafter owned by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary, or any shares of stock or Debt of any Restricted
Subsidiary (pledges, mortgages and other liens being hereinafter in this Article
called "Lien" or "Liens"), without effectively providing that the Securities of
each series then Outstanding (together with, if the Company shall so determine,
any other Debt of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary then existing or
thereafter created which is not subordinate to the Securities of each series
then Outstanding) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such
secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that this Section shall not apply to, and there shall be excluded from
secured Debt in any computation under this Section, Debt secured by:
(1) Liens on any Principal Property acquired, constructed or improved
by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this
Indenture which are created or assumed contemporaneously with such
acquisition, construction or improvement, or within 120 days before or
after the completion thereof, to secure or provide for the payment of all
or any part of the cost of such acquisition, construction or improvement
(including related expenditures capitalized for Federal income tax purposes
in connection therewith) incurred after the date of this Indenture;
(2) Liens of or upon any property, shares of capital stock or Debt

other payments, or other obligations, pursuant to any contract or statute

of the cost of acquiring, constructing or improving the property subject to
such Liens (including Liens incurred in connection with pollution control,
industrial revenue or similar financings);
-69-
(5) Liens imposed by law, such as mechanics', workmen's, repairmen's,
materialmen's, carriers', warehousemen's, vendors' or other similar liens
arising in the ordinary course of business, or governmental (federal, state
or municipal) liens arising out of contracts for the sale of products or
services by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or deposits or
pledges to obtain the release of any of the foregoing;
(6) pledges or deposits under workmen's compensation laws or similar

United States of America to secure surety, appeal or customs bonds to which
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party, or deposits in
litigation or other proceedings such as, but not limited to, interpleader
proceedings;
(7) Liens created by or resulting from any litigation or other

proceedings, including Liens arising out of judgments or awards against the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with respect to which the Company or

(9) Liens consisting of easements, rights-of-way, zoning
restrictions, restrictions on the use of real property, and defects and
irregularities in the title thereto, landlords' liens and other similar
liens and encumbrances none of which interfere materially with the use of
the property covered thereby in the ordinary course of the business of the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary and which do not, in the opinion of
the Company, materially detract from the value of such properties; or
(10) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions,
renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Lien referred to
in the
-70-
foregoing clauses (1) to (9), inclusive; provided, that (i) such extension,
renewal or replacement Lien shall be limited to all or a part of the same
property, shares of stock or Debt that secured the Lien extended, renewed
or replaced (plus improvements on such property) and (ii) the Debt secured
by such Lien at such time is not increased.
(b) Notwithstanding the restrictions contained in subdivision (a) of this
Section, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of them, may incur,
issue, assume or guarantee Debt secured by Liens without equally and ratably
securing the Securities of each series then Outstanding, provided, that at the
time of such incurrence, issuance, assumption or guarantee, after giving effect
thereto and to the retirement of any Debt which is concurrently being retired,
the aggregate amount of all outstanding Debt secured by Liens which could not
have been incurred, issued, assumed or guaranteed by the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary without equally and ratably securing the Securities of
each series then Outstanding except for the provisions of this subdivision (b)
does not at such time exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the
Company.
SECTION 1008. Restriction on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.
(a) The Company will not itself, and it will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any bank, insurance company or
other lender or investor (not including the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary) or to which any such lender or investor is a party, providing for
the leasing by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for a period, including
renewals, in excess of three years of any Principal Property which has been or
is to be sold or transferred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to such
lender or investor or to any person to whom funds have been or are to be
advanced by such lender or investor on the security of such Principal Property
(herein referred to as a "Sale and Leaseback Transaction") unless either:
(1) The Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would, at the time of
entering into such arrangement, be entitled, without equally and ratably
securing the Securities of each series then Outstanding, to incur Debt
secured by a Lien on such property, pursuant to paragraphs (1) to (10),
inclusive, of Section 1007; or
(2) the Company within 120 days after the sale or transfer shall
have been made by the Company or by a Restricted Subsidiary, applies an
amount equal to the greater of (i) the net proceeds of the sale of the
Principal Property sold and leased back pursuant to such arrangement or
(ii) the fair market value of the Principal Property so sold and leased
back at the time of entering into such arrangement (as determined by any
two of the following: the
-71-
Chairman or a Vice Chairman of the Board of the Company, its President, its
Chief Financial Officer, its Vice President of Finance, its Treasurer or
its Controller) to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company; provided,
that the amount to be applied to the retirement of Funded Debt of the
Company shall be reduced by (A) the principal amount of any Securities
delivered within 120 days after such sale to the Trustee for retirement and
cancellation, and (B) the principal amount of Funded Debt, other than
Securities, voluntarily retired by the Company within 120 days after such
sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no retirement referred to in this
clause (a)(2) may be effected by payment at maturity or pursuant to any
mandatory sinking fund payment or mandatory prepayment provision.
(b) Notwithstanding the restrictions contained in subdivision (a) of this
Section, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of them, may enter
into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction, provided, that at the time of such
transaction, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all
Attributable Debt in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions existing at such
time which could not have been entered into except for the provisions of this
subdivision (b) does not at such time exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible
Assets of the Company.
(c) A Sale and Leaseback Transaction shall not be deemed to result in the
creation of a Lien.

The following provisions shall apply to the Securities of each series
unless specifically otherwise provided in a Board Resolution, Officers'
Certificate or indenture supplemental hereto provided pursuant to Section 301.
The Company may omit to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth
in Sections 1005, 1006, 1007 and 1008 and any such omission with respect to
Sections 1005, 1006, 1007 and 1008 shall not be an Event of Default, in each
case with respect to the Securities of that series, provided that the following
conditions have been satisfied:
(1) with reference to this Section 1009, the Company has deposited
or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee

principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide
not later than one day before the due date of any payment referred to in
clause (A) or (B) of this subparagraph (1) money in an amount, or (iii) a
combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
firm of independent
-72-
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee, to pay and discharge (A) the principal of (and premium, if
any) and each instalment of principal (and premium, if any) and interest on
the Outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or
installments of principal and interest and (B) any mandatory sinking fund
payments or analogous payments applicable to the Securities of such series
on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with
the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities;
(2) such deposit shall not cause the Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that series to have a conflicting interest as defined in
Section 608 and for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to the
Securities of any series;
(3) such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other agreement or
instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound;

time would become an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of
that series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such
deposit;
(5) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that Holders of the Securities of such series will not
recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result
of such deposit and defeasance of certain obligations and will be subject
to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the
same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had
not occurred; and
(6) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent
herein provided for relating to the defeasance contemplated in this
Section have been complied with.

provision or condition set forth in Sections 1004 to 1008, inclusive, with
respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance
the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either
waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
term, provision or condition, but
-73-
no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition
except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become
effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in
respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and
effect.
The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the
purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any such term, provision or
condition. If a record date is fixed for such purpose, the Holders on such
record date or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be
entitled to waive any such term, provision or condition hereunder, whether or
not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that unless the
Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series shall have waived such term, provision or condition
prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver
previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be
canceled and of no further effect.

Security.
SECTION 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part.
Any Security which is to be redeemed in part shall be surrendered at a

satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof
or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such
Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series
and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder,
in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered; provided, however, that

Honeywell Inc. (the "Corporation") considers it essential to the best
interests of its stockholders to foster the continuous employment of key
management personnel. In this connection, the Board of Directors (the "Board")
recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the
possibility of a change in control of the Corporation may exist and that such
possibility, and the uncertainty and questions which it may raise among
management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel
to the detriment of the Corporation and its stockholders.
The Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to
reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the
Corporation's management to their assigned duties without distraction in the
face of potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a
change in control of the Corporation.
In order to induce the Corporation's key employees to remain in the employ
of the Corporation, the Corporation has established the Honeywell Key Employee
Severance Plan (this "Plan") under which the severance benefits set forth herein
shall be paid to covered employees designated by the Personnel Committee of the
Board from time to time (the "Key Employees") in the event their employment with
the Corporation is terminated under the circumstances described below subsequent
to a "change in control of the Corporation" (as defined in Section 2).
1. TERM OF PLAN. Before a change in control of the Corporation, this Plan
shall continue until such time as the Board, acting in its sole discretion,
elects to modify, supersede or terminate this Plan as provided in Section 7.
This Plan shall automatically continue in effect for a period of two (2) years
following a change in control of the Corporation; provided, however, that the
expiration of the term of this Plan shall not adversely affect the rights of any
Key Employee under this Plan which have accrued prior to the expiration of the
term of this Plan.
2. CHANGE IN CONTROL. No benefits shall be payable hereunder unless there
shall have been a change in control of the Corporation, as set forth below. For
purposes of this Plan, a "change in control of the Corporation" shall be deemed
to have occurred if:
(i) any "person," as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")
(other than the Corporation, any subsidiary of the Corporation, any
"person" (as hereinabove defined) acting on behalf of the Corporation as
underwriter pursuant to an offering who is temporarily holding securities
in connection with such offering, any trustee or other fiduciary holding
securities under an employee benefit plan of the Corporation, or any
corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the
Corporation in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of
stock of the Corporation), is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined
in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
securities of the Corporation representing thirty percent (30%) or more of
the combined voting power of the Corporation's then outstanding securities;
or
(ii) during any period of not more than two (2) consecutive years
(not including any period prior to the adoption of this Plan), individuals
who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new
director (other than a director designated by a "person" (as hereinabove
defined) who has entered into an agreement with the Corporation to effect a
transaction described in clause (i), (iii) or (iv) of this Section) whose
election by the Board or nomination for election by the Corporation's
stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the
directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning
of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously
so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority
thereof;
(iii) the stockholders of the Corporation approve a merger or
consolidation of the Corporation with any other corporation, other than (1)
a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of
the Corporation outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to
represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into
voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of
the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Corporation or
such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or
consolidation or (2) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a
recapitalization of the Corporation (or similar transaction) in which no
"person" (as hereinabove defined) acquires more than thirty percent (30%)
of the combined voting power of the Corporation's then outstanding
securities; or
(iv) the stockholders of the Corporation approve a plan of complete
liquidation of the Corporation or an agreement for the sale or disposition
by the Corporation of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets
(or any transaction having a similar effect).

3. TERMINATION FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(i) GENERAL. If any of the events described in Section 2
constituting a change in control of the Corporation shall have occurred, a
Key Employee shall be entitled to the benefits provided in Subsection
4(iii) upon the subsequent termination of such Key Employee's employment
during the term of this Plan unless such termination is (a) because of the
Key Employee's death or Disability, (b) by the Corporation for Cause, or
(c) by the Key Employee other than for Good Reason. In the event a Key
Employee's employment with the Corporation is terminated for any reason
prior to the occurrence of a change in control of the Corporation, and
subsequently a change in control of the Corporation shall have occurred,
the Key Employee shall not be entitled to any benefits hereunder.
(ii) DISABILITY. If, as a result of a Key Employee's incapacity due
to physical or mental illness, the Key Employee shall have been absent from
the full-time performance of the Key Employee's duties with the Corporation
for six (6) consecutive months, and within thirty (30) days after written
notice of termination is given, the Key Employee shall not have returned to
the full-time performance of duties, for purposes of this Plan the Key
Employee's employment may be terminated for "Disability."
(iii) CAUSE. Termination by the Corporation of a Key Employee's
employment for "Cause" shall mean termination (a) upon the willful and
continued failure by the Key Employee to substantially perform the Key
Employee's duties with the Corporation (other than any such failure
resulting from the Key Employee's incapacity due to physical or mental
illness or any such actual or anticipated failure after the issuance of a
Notice of Termination (as defined in Subsection 3(v)) or by the Key
Employee for Good Reason (as defined in Subsection 3(iv))), after a written
demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Key Employee by the
Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board
believes that the Key Employee has not substantially performed the Key
Employee's duties, or (b) the willful engaging by the Key Employee in
conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Corporation,
monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of this Subsection 3(iii), no act,
or failure to act, on the Key Employee's part shall be deemed "willful"
unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Key Employee in bad faith and
without reasonable belief that the Key Employee's action or omission was in
or not opposed to the best interest of the Corporation. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Key Employee shall not be deemed to have been terminated
for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Key
Employee a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not
less than three-quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Board at a
meeting of the Board (after reasonable notice to the Key Employee and an
opportunity for the Key Employee, together with the Key Employee's counsel,
to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of
the Board the Key Employee was guilty of conduct set forth above in this
Subsection 3(iii) and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.
3
(iv) GOOD REASON. A Key Employee shall be entitled to terminate
employment for Good Reason. For purposes of this Plan, "Good Reason" shall
mean, without the Key Employee's express written consent, the occurrence
after a change in control of the Corporation of any of the following
circumstances unless, in the case of Paragraphs (a), (e), (f), (g) or (h),
such circumstances are fully corrected prior to the Date of Termination (as
defined in Subsection 3(vi)) specified in the Notice of Termination (as
defined in Subsection 3(v)) given in respect thereof:
(a) the assignment to the Key Employee of any duties
inconsistent with the position in the Corporation that such
Key Employee held immediately prior to the change in
control of the Corporation, or an adverse alteration in the
nature or status of the Key Employee's responsibilities or
the conditions of the Key Employee's employment from those
in effect immediately prior to such change in control of
the Corporation;
(b) a reduction by the Corporation in the Key Employee's annual
base salary as in effect on the date immediately prior to
the change in control of the Corporation or as the same may
be increased from time to time thereafter;
(c) the Corporation requiring the Key Employee to be based more
than fifty (50) miles from the Corporation's offices at
which such Key Employee is principally employed immediately
prior to the date of the change in control of the
Corporation except for required travel on the Corporation's
business to an extent substantially consistent with the Key
Employee's business travel obligations immediately prior to
the change in control of the Corporation;
(d) the failure by the Corporation to pay to the Key Employee
any portion of such Key Employee's current compensation or
compensation under any deferred compensation program of the
Corporation within seven (7) days of the date such
compensation is due;
(e) the failure by the Corporation to continue in effect any
compensation or benefit plan or perquisites in which the
Key Employee participates immediately prior to the change
in control of the Corporation which is material to the Key
Employee's total compensation (the "Compensation Plans"),
unless an equitable arrangement (embodied in an ongoing
substitute or alternative plan) has been made with respect
to such plan, or the failure by
4
the Corporation to continue such Key Employee's
participation therein (or in such substitute or alternative
plan) on a basis not materially less favorable, both in
terms of the amount of benefits provided and the level of
the Key Employee's participation relative to other
participants, than existed at the time of the change in
control of the Corporation;
(f) the failure by the Corporation to continue to provide the
Key Employee with benefits substantially similar to those
enjoyed by such Key Employee under any of the Corporation's
life insurance, medical, dental, accident, or disability
plans in which the Key Employee was participating at the
time of the change in control of the Corporation, the
taking of any action by the Corporation which would
directly or indirectly materially reduce any of such
benefits, or the failure by the Corporation to provide the
Key Employee with the number of paid vacation days to which
the Key Employee is entitled on the basis of the Key
Employee's years of service with the Corporation in
accordance with the Corporation's normal vacation policy in
effect at the time of the change in control of the
Corporation;
(g) the failure of the Corporation to obtain a satisfactory
agreement from any successor to assume the obligations and
liabilities under this Plan, as contemplated in Section 5
hereof; or
(h) any purported termination of the Key Employee's employment
that is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination
satisfying the requirements of Subsection (v) hereof (and,
if applicable, the requirements of Subsection (iii)
hereof), which purported termination shall not be effective
for purposes of this Plan.
The Key Employee's right to terminate employment pursuant to this
Subsection (iv) shall not be affected by such Key Employee's incapacity due
to physical or mental illness. A Key Employee's continued employment shall
not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any
circumstance constituting Good Reason hereunder.
(v) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any purported termination of a Key
Employee's employment by the Corporation or by such Key Employee shall be
communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in
accordance with Section 6. "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice
that shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Plan relied
upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances
claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Key Employee's employment
under the provision so indicated.
5
(vi) DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" shall mean (a) if a
Key Employee's employment is terminated for Disability, thirty (30) days
after Notice of Termination is given (provided that such Key Employee shall
not have returned to the full-time performance of such Key Employee's
duties during such thirty (30)-day period), and (b) if a Key Employee's
employment is terminated pursuant to Subsections (iii) or (iv) hereof or
for any other reason (other than death or Disability), the date specified
in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a termination for Cause
shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of
Termination is given, and in the case of a termination for Good Reason
shall not be less than fifteen (15) nor more than sixty (60) days from the
date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if
within fifteen (15) days after any Notice of Termination is given, or, if
later, prior to the Date of Termination (as determined without regard to
this proviso), the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the
other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, then the Date
of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally
determined, whether by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a
binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a
court of competent jurisdiction (which is not appealable or with respect to
which the time for appeal therefrom has expired and no appeal has been
perfected); and provided, further, that the Date of Termination shall be
extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith
and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute
with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such
dispute, the Corporation will continue to pay a Key Employee such Key
Employee's full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the
dispute was given and continue the Key Employee as a participant in all
Compensation Plans, life insurance, medical, dental, accident or liability
plans and any similar plans in which the Key Employee was participating
when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given, until the dispute is
finally resolved in accordance with this Subsection (vi). Amounts paid
under this Subsection (vi) are in addition to all other amounts due under
this Plan, and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due
under this Plan and shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by a
Key Employee as the result of employment by another employer.
4. COMPENSATION DURING DISABILITY OR UPON TERMINATION. Following a change
in control of the Corporation, a Key Employee shall be entitled to the following
during a period of disability, or upon termination of such Key Employee's
employment, as the case may be, provided that such period or termination occurs
during the term of this Plan:
(i) During any period that the Key Employee fails to perform the Key
Employee's full-time duties with the Corporation as a result of incapacity
due to physical or mental illness, the Key Employee shall continue to
receive such Key Employee's base salary at a rate in effect at the
commencement of any such period, together with all compensation payable to
the Key Employee under the Corporation's disability plan or program or
other similar plan during such period, until the Key Employee's
participation in
6
this Plan is terminated pursuant to Section 3(ii) hereof. Thereafter, or
in the event the Key Employee's employment shall be terminated by reason of
the Key Employee's death, the Key Employee's benefits shall be determined
under the Corporation's retirement, insurance and other compensation
programs then in effect in accordance with the terms of such programs.
(ii) If the Key Employee's employment shall be terminated by the
Corporation for Cause or by the Key Employee other than for Good Reason,
the Corporation shall pay such Key Employee the Key Employee's full base
salary through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time
Notice of Termination is given or in effect on the date immediately
preceding the date of the change in control of the Corporation, whichever
is higher, plus all other amounts or benefits to which the Key Employee is
entitled under any Compensation Plan then in effect, and the Corporation
shall have no further obligations to the Key Employee under this Plan.
(iii) If the Key Employee's employment by the Corporation shall be
terminated by the Key Employee for Good Reason or by the Corporation other
than for Cause or Disability, then the Key Employee shall be entitled to
the following:
(a) the Corporation shall pay to such Key Employee the Key
Employee's full base salary through the Date of Termination
at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is
given, or in effect on the date immediately preceding the
date of the change in control of the Corporation, whichever
is higher, no later than the fifth day following the Date
of Termination, plus all other amounts to which the Key
Employee is entitled under any Compensation Plan of the
Corporation, at the time such payments are due;
(b) in lieu of any further salary payments to the Key Employee
for periods subsequent to the Date of Termination, the
Corporation shall pay as severance pay to such Key
Employee, at the time specified in Subsection (iv), a lump
sum severance payment equal to one and one-half times the
sum of the Key Employee's annual salary and "on-plan" bonus
under the Corporate Executive Compensation Plan based on
(i) in the case of salary, the Key Employee's annual salary
in effect as of the Date of Termination or in effect on the
date immediately preceding the date of the change in
control of the Corporation, whichever is higher, and (ii)
in the case of "on-plan" bonus, the "on-plan" bonus under
the Corporate Executive Compensation Plan in effect as of
the Date of Termination or the average of the annual
bonuses paid to the Key Employee during the three (3) year
period immediately preceding the date of the change in
control of the Corporation,
7
whichever is higher, and in either case, without regard to
any prorata adjustment for any portion of the year;
(c) the Key Employee's rights under the Compensation Plans
shall be governed by the terms of those respective plans;
(d) the Corporation shall pay to the Key Employee all legal
fees and expenses incurred by the Key Employee as a result
of such termination (including all such fees and expenses,
if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such
termination or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or
benefit provided by this Plan or in connection with any tax
audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the
application of Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"), to any payment or benefit
provided hereunder);
(e) for a one and one-half year period after such termination,
the Corporation shall arrange to provide the Key Employee
with benefits substantially similar to those which the Key
Employee was receiving or entitled to receive under the
Corporation's life, disability, accident and group health
insurance plans (including organ transplant, dental,
vision, hearing, and prescription drug coverage), or any
similar plans in which the Key Employee was participating
immediately prior to the Date of Termination at a cost to
the Key Employee which is no greater than that cost in
effect at the Date of Termination or the date immediately
preceding the date of the change in control of the
Corporation, whichever is lower. Benefits otherwise
receivable by the Key Employee pursuant to this Paragraph
(e) shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are
actually received by the Key Employee during the one and
one-half year period following the Key Employee's
termination, and the Key Employee shall report to the
Corporation any such comparable benefits actually received
by him or her.
(iv) PAYMENT YIELDING HIGHEST NET AMOUNT. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Subsection (iii) hereof, if:
(i) any payments or benefits received or to be received by the
Key Employee, whether pursuant to the terms of this Plan or
any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the
Corporation, any person whose actions result in a change in
control of the Corporation or any person affiliated with
the Corporation or such person,
8
constitute "parachute payments" (such payments or benefits
being hereinafter referred to as the "Parachute Payments")
within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and
(ii) the aggregate present value of the Parachute Payments
reduced by any excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the
Code (or any similar tax that may hereafter be imposed)
(the "Excise Tax") would be less than three (3) times the
Key Employee's "base amount", as defined in Section
280G(b)(3) of the Code,
then, in lieu of that portion of the Parachute Payments to which the Key
Employee would otherwise be entitled under Subsection (iii) hereof, the
Corporation shall pay to such Key Employee under this Subsection (iv), no later
than the fifth day following the Date of Termination, a lump sum amount (if any)
such that the aggregate present value of the Parachute Payments is equal to 2.99
times the Key Employee's base amount.
For purposes of the preceding paragraph, the Key Employee's base amount, the
present value of the Parachute Payments, the amount of the Excise Tax and all
other appropriate matters shall be determined by the Corporation's independent
auditors in accordance with the principles of Section 280G of the Code and based
upon the advice of tax counsel selected by such auditors.
(v) The payments provided for in Subsections 4(iii)(a), (b) and (d)
above, shall be made not later than the fifth day following the Date of
Termination; provided, however, that if the amounts of such payments cannot
be finally determined on or before such day, the Corporation shall pay to a
Key Employee on such day an estimate, as determined in good faith by the
Corporation, of the minimum amount of such payments and shall pay the
remainder of such payments (together with interest at the rate provided in
Section 1274(b)(2)(8) of the Code (the "Applicable Rate")) from the date
that the estimated payments were made to the date the remainder of such
payments is made as soon as the amount thereof can be determined but in no
event later than the thirtieth day after the Date of Termination. In the
event that the amount of the estimated payments exceeds the amount
subsequently determined to have been due, such excess shall constitute a
loan by the Corporation to the Key Employee, payable on the fifth day after
demand by the Corporation (together with interest at the Applicable Rate).
(vi) Except as required in Subsection 4(iii)(e) hereof, a Key Employee
shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in
this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the
amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Section 4 be reduced
by any compensation earned by the Key Employee as the result of employment
by another employer, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount
claimed to be owed by the Key Employee to the Corporation, or otherwise;
provided, however, that if during the one and one-half year period
subsequent to such Key Employee's Date of Termination, the Key Employee
directly competes with
9
the Corporation by making use of trade secrets or other proprietary
knowledge that the Key Employee obtained while employed by the Corporation,
all income earned as a result of such use of information shall be remitted
to the Corporation to the extent payments were made to the Key Employee
under this Section 4.
5. SUCCESSORS: BINDING PLAN.
(i) The Corporation will require any successor (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation to (A)
expressly assume the obligations and liabilities under this Plan in the
same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be bound if
no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Corporation to obtain
such assumption prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall
entitle the Key Employee to compensation from the Corporation in the same
amount and on the same terms to which such Key Employee would be entitled
hereunder if the Key Employee terminated employment for Good Reason
following a change in control of the Corporation, except that for purposes
of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession
becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As used in this
Plan, "Corporation" shall mean the Corporation as hereinbefore defined and
any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and
agrees to be bound by the terms of this Plan by operation of law, or
otherwise.
(ii) The rights created under this Plan shall inure to the benefit of
and be enforceable by a Key Employee and such Key Employee's personal or
legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs,
distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Key Employee should die while
any amount would still be payable to such Key Employee hereunder had the
Key Employee continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided
herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the Key
Employee's devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such
designee, to the Key Employee's estate.
6. NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or permitted
pursuant to the terms of this Plan shall be in writing, addressed to the
intended recipient at his or her last known address, or to such other address as
either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith,
provided that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt
and provided further that all notices to the Corporation shall be directed to
the attention of the Personnel Committee. All such notices shall be sent (i) by
certified or registered mail and shall be deemed received three (3) business
days after the date of mailing; (ii) by Federal Express or similar overnight
courier and shall be deemed received one (1) business day after delivery to
Federal Express or similar overnight courier; or (iii) by personal service and
shall be deemed received on the same day as service.
10
7. AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION. Prior to a change in control
of the Corporation, the Board retains the right, at any time and from time to
time, to alter, amend, change, suspend, substitute, delete, revoke or terminate
this Plan in whole or in part, for any reason, and without either the consent
of, or prior notification to any person. The Board shall have the right to
delegate its authority and power hereunder, or any portion thereof, to any
committee of the Board, and the right to rescind any such delegation to such
committee in whole or in part. Following the occurrence of a change in control
of the Corporation, the Board may not terminate this Plan or amend this Plan
in any manner adverse to any Key Employee.
8. MISCELLANEOUS. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise,
express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by
either party which are not expressly set forth in this Plan. The validity,
interpretation, construction and performance of the terms of this Plan shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to its conflicts
of law principles. All references to sections of the Code shall be deemed also
to refer to any successor provisions to such sections. Any payments provided
for hereunder shall be paid net of any applicable withholding required under
federal, state or local law. The obligations of the Corporation under this Plan
shall survive the expiration of the term of this Plan.
9. VALIDITY. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this
Plan shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of
this Plan, which shall remain in full force and effect.
10. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection
with this Plan shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, conducted
before a panel of three arbitrators in the city of Minneapolis, in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect; provided,
however, that a Key Employee shall be entitled to seek specific performance of
such Key Employee's rights under Subsection 3(vi) during the pendency of any
dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Plan. Judgment
may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction.
11. PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Plan sets forth the entire agreement of the
parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. Any other
prior agreements, arrangements or understandings between a Key Employee and the
Corporation remain binding and in full force and effect consistent with the
terms and conditions thereof and shall not be affected by this Plan.

following the date such Participant would have attained his or her earliest
retirement eligibility under his or her Base Plan as a vested Participant, his
or her surviving Spouse on the date of his or her death shall be eligible for
life for an annual benefit determined by calculating the surviving Spouse's

with the Mid-Career SERP Formula as prescribed in Section 2.1.

Terminated Participant Benefit" under the Participant's Base Plan in accordance
with the Mid-Career SERP Formula as prescribed in Section 2.1.

ARTICLE IV - PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
4.1 FORM OF PAYMENT TO PARTICIPANT.
(a) NORMAL FORM OF PAYMENT.
Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph (b) of this Section 4.1, a
benefit under this Plan shall be paid in the form of the benefit paid
with respect to the Participant under his or her Base Plan. Any
election, designation of a beneficiary(ies) or contingent
annuitant(s), or revocation made prior to the Participant's "Benefit
Starting Date" and in effect under the Participant's Base Plan shall
be in effect under this Plan.
(b) LUMP SUM FORM OF PAYMENT.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph (a) of Section 4.1, a
Participant, who is eligible for Early Retirement or who will be
eligible for Early Retirement within 13 months, may elect to receive
the present value of the benefits payable to him or her under this
Plan, as computed as of the last day of the month in which the
earlier of the date of the Participant's Early Retirement or Normal
Retirement occurs, by utilizing the interest rate and mortality
assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be modified from time to
time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc. (or, in the case of
the Participant's earlier death, the present value of such benefits
so computed as of the later of the last day of the month in which the
Participant's death or the Participant's earliest retirement
eligibility under his or her Base Plan occurs) in a lump sum cash
payment. The Participant's written election to receive a lump sum
cash payment shall be submitted on a form provided for that purpose
by the Company, and consented to by the Participant's Spouse in
writing if the Participant is married, and delivered to the Vice
President, Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, at least
13 months prior to the Participant's Early Retirement or Normal
Retirement. Such Spouse's consent must acknowledge the effect of
such election and be witnessed by a notary public. If a Participant
dies after making such election and prior to his or her Early
Retirement or Normal Retirement, the lump sum
10
cash payment shall be made to the Participant's surviving Spouse in
accordance with Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, whichever may be
applicable, or to the Participant's surviving Children in accordance
with Section 3.7.
4.2 TIME OF PAYMENTS. Benefit payments paid pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2,
respectively, shall begin (or, in lieu thereof, in the event that the
Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), be paid) 30 days after the
Participant's Normal Retirement or Early Retirement, as the case may be.
Payments pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Plan shall commence 30 days after the
later of (a) the last day of the calendar month in which the Participant is
determined to be Permanently and Totally disabled under his or her Base Plan or
(b) 6 months after his or her last full day of active employment if he or she
elects an immediate disability benefit under his or her Base Plan; but if he or
she elects a deferred disability benefit under his or her Base Plan, payments
shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant has complied with Section
4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid) 30 days after his or
her Early Retirement or Normal Retirement. Payments pursuant to Sections 3.5
and 3.6 of this Plan, shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant has
complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid)
30 days after the Participant's death if he or she was eligible for Early
Retirement or 30 days after the date he or she would have attained his or her
earliest retirement eligibility under his or her Base Plan. Payments pursuant
to Section 3.7 of this Plan shall commence (or, in the event that the
Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such benefits
shall be paid) 30 days after the date of the Participant's death.
4.3 PAYMENT SUBSEQUENT TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(a) PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Notwithstanding any Plan
provision to the contrary, if within 3 years subsequent to a Change
in Control, a Participant's employment shall be terminated by the
Participant for "Good Reason" (as defined in the Honeywell Key
Employee Severance Plan) or by the Company other than for "Cause" (as
defined in the Honeywell Key Employee Severance Plan) or Permanent
and Total Disability, the present value of the benefits payable
pursuant to Section 3.3 (utilizing the interest rate and mortality
assumptions set forth
11
in Table I, which may be modified from time to time by the Board of
Directors of Honeywell) shall be paid as a lump sum cash payment to
the Participant on the fifth day after such termination.
(b) PAYMENTS UPON IMPOSITION OF FEDERAL OR STATE TAXES. If subsequent to
a Change in Control, any Participant is determined to be subject to
Federal or state income tax on any amount accrued on his or her
behalf under this Plan prior to the time of payment hereunder,
Federal or state taxes attributable to the amount determined to be so
taxable shall be distributed by the Plan to such Participant. An
amount accrued on his or her behalf under this Plan shall be
determined to be subject to Federal income tax upon the earliest of:
(i) a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue
Service (hereinafter referred to as "IRS") addressed to the
Participant which is not appealed to the courts;
(ii) a final determination by the United States Tax Court or any other
Federal Court affirming any such determination by the IRS; or
(iii) an opinion by the Tax Counsel of the Company, addressed to the
Company and the Trustee, that, by reason of Treasury Regulations,
amendments to the Code, published IRS rulings, court decisions or
other substantial precedent, amounts accrued on a Participant's
behalf hereunder are subject to Federal or state income tax prior
to payment.
The Company shall undertake at its sole expense to defend any tax claims
described herein which are asserted by the IRS or by any state revenue
authority against any Participant subsequent to a Change in Control,
including attorney fees and costs of appeal, and shall have the sole
authority to determine whether or not to appeal any determination made by
the IRS, by any state revenue authority or by a lower court. The Company
also agrees to
12
reimburse any Participant for any interest or penalties in respect of
Federal or state tax claims hereunder upon receipt of documentation of
same. Any distributions from this Plan to a Participant under this Section
4.3(b) shall be applied in an equitable manner to reduce Company
liabilities to such Participant under the Plans.
4.4 PAYMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE PARTICIPANT'S RETIREMENT. At any time before
or after a Change in Control, a Participant, after he or she has retired under
the provisions of the Base Plan on or after December 17, 1991, or the surviving
Spouse or beneficiary of the Participant, after the Participant's death
subsequent to such retirement on or after December 17, 1991, may elect to
receive the present value of such benefits or remaining benefits to which he or
she is entitled under this Plan in one lump-sum cash payment at any time after
the Participant's date of retirement or death, respectively, as computed as of
the last day of the month in which the request is received by the Vice
President, Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, by utilizing the
interest rate and mortality assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be
modified from time to time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell and then
reduced by a penalty, which shall be forfeited to the Company which is equal to
10 percent of the present value of any unpaid benefits. Payment of such
benefits shall be effected on the last day of the next month following the month
in which the request is received.
13
ARTICLE V - ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
5.1 PERSONNEL COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered by the Personnel
Committee of Honeywell's Board of Directors which shall have the authority to
determine Plan eligibility and the amount of Plan benefits to which a
Participant or beneficiary is entitled to receive, interpret the Plan, maintain
records and issue such regulations as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate. The interpretations of such Committee shall be final. The
Committee shall have absolute discretion in carrying out its responsibilities.
14
ARTICLE VI - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
6.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc. may
amend or terminate the Plan at any time except in the event of a Change in
Control as defined in Section 3.3; provided, however, that no such amendment or
termination shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal or Early
Retirement, death or Total and Permanent Disability of a Participant with
respect to the Participant's employment by the Company prior to the date of such
amendment or termination unless such benefit is or becomes payable under another
plan or practice adopted by such Board of Directors. In the event of a Change
in Control as defined in Section 3.3, the Board may not amend or terminate the
Plan in any manner that shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal
or Early Retirement, death or Permanent and Total Disability of, or any
available optional form of payment to, a Participant for a period of 3 years
from the date of the Change in Control. In the event of termination of the
Plan, any benefits which have accrued hereunder shall be paid in the form and at
the time determined under Section 4.3(a) of the Plan.
15
ARTICLE VII - GENERAL CONDITIONS
7.1 NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE BENEFITS. The right to receive
benefits under the Plan may not be anticipated, alienated, sold, transferred,
assigned, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to any charge or legal process.
7.2 APPLICABLE LAW. All questions pertaining to the construction, validity
and effect of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the
United States and the State of Minnesota, other than its laws respecting choice
of law.
16
ARTICLE VIII - FUNDING
8.1 SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments hereunder shall be paid in cash from the
general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be
established since it is the intent to pay benefits as they become payable from
operating revenue. The Company may, however, in its sole discretion, establish
a separate reserve which may be held by it from which such benefits may be paid.
The foregoing shall not preclude the establishment by the Company of a "rabbi
trust" or the use of assets contributed to a "rabbi trust" to pay benefits under
the Plan.
8.2 STATUS OF PARTICIPANTS. A Participant shall have no right, title, or
interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make to aid it
in meeting its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no
action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create
a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and a
Participant or any beneficiary. To the extent that any person acquires a right
to receive payments from the Company, such right shall be no greater than the
right of an unsecured creditor.
8.3 FICA AND FUTA CONTRIBUTIONS ON PLAN BENEFITS. All amounts which have
accrued to a Participant under this Plan with respect to a Participant's service
with the Company after December 31, 1983, as provided in this Section 8.3 shall
be considered "wages" for purposes of the Federal Insurance Contribution Act
("FICA") and the Federal Unemployment Tax Act ("FUTA") as of the earliest of (i)
the date of the commencement of the Participant's Normal Retirement benefits,
Early Retirement benefits, Total and Permanent Disability benefits, or
commencement of Pre-retirement Surviving Spouse Benefits to the Participant's
Spouse or Surviving Children's Benefit to his or her Child or Children ("Benefit
Commencement Date"); (ii) the date in 1993 on which an active Participant
submitted an application for retirement benefits under the Base Plan or resigned
his or her employment with the Company, effective in 1994 but prior to July 1,
1994; or (iii) the date in 1993 on which a specified vested accrued benefit is
determined with respect to any other Participant in this Plan who is designated
by the Vice President Corporate Human Resources and approved by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company prior to December 31, 1993. Attached hereto
17
as Table II is a list of the Participants described in subparts (ii) and (iii)
above and the amount of their accrued benefits under this Plan which became
vested in 1993.
Effective with the first payment made under the Plan after December 31, 1990,
any amount taken into account as wages with respect to a Participant's Benefit
Commencement Date occurring after the applicable effective date specified in the
Social Security Amendment of 1983 by reason of this Section 8.3 shall not again
be treated as wages for FICA or FUTA purposes. However, no Participant shall be
entitled to a refund from the Company of any previously paid FICA or FUTA
contributions as a result of the application of this Section 8.3.
In order to compute the present value of a Participant's benefit under this Plan
for purposes of determining the amount of any FICA or FUTA contribution payable
with respect to such benefit, such present value shall be determined in
accordance with Table I.
18
ARTICLE IX - CLAIMS PROCEDURE
9.1 FILING OF A CLAIM FOR BENEFITS. Upon denial of benefits by the Company,
the Participant or the Participant's beneficiary shall make a claim to the
Personnel Committee for the benefits provided under the Plan in the manner

9.2 NOTIFICATION TO CLAIMANT OF DECISION. If a claim is wholly or partially
denied, notice of the decision, meeting the requirements of Section 9.3 shall be
furnished to the claimant within 90 days after receipt of the claim by the
Personnel Committee, unless special circumstances, such as the need to hold a
hearing, require an extension of time for processing the claim. If an extension
of time is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the
claimant prior to the end of the initial 90 day period, indicating the special
circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which a final decision is
expected. An extension of time shall in no event exceed a period of 90 days from
the end of the initial 90 day period. If notice of the denial of a claim is not

deemed denied and the claimant may proceed with the review procedure set forth

(a) May request a review upon written application to the Personnel
Committee,
(b) May review pertinent documents; and
(c) May submit issues and comments in writing.
A claimant (or his or her duly authorized representative) shall request a review
by filing a written application for review with the Personnel Committee at any
time within 60 days after receipt by the claimant of written notice of the
denial of the claim.
9.5 DECISION ON REVIEW. A decision of a denied claim shall be made in the
following manner:
(a) The decision on review shall be made by the Personnel Committee,
which may in its discretion hold a hearing on the denied claim. The
Personnel Committee shall make its decision promptly, and not later
than 60 days after receipt of the request for review, unless special
circumstances (such as the need to hold a hearing) require an
extension of time for processing, in which case a decision shall be
rendered as soon as possible, but not later than 120 days after
receipt of the request for review. If an extension of time for review
is required because of special circumstances, written notice of the
extension shall be furnished
20
to the claimant prior to the commencement of the extension. If the
decision on review is not furnished within the time specified, the
claim shall be deemed denied on review.
(b) The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include specific
reasons for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be
understood by the claimant, and specific references to the pertinent
provisions of the Plan on which the decision is based.

HONEYWELL-NORWEST RABBI TRUST AGREEMENT
(Amended and Restated Effective September 20, 1994)
AGREEMENT made as of the 26 day of February, 1993, and amended as of September
20, 1994, by and between Honeywell Inc., a corporation organized under the laws
of the State of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as the "Company"), and Norwest
Bank Minnesota, NA, a national banking association (hereinafter referred to as
the "Trustee").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, in addition to the benefits provided under the Honeywell Retirement
Benefit Plan to certain management employees and retirees under said plan (who
are sometimes hereinafter called "Executives" or referred to singly as
"Executive"), or their beneficiaries, selected by the Company, the Company has
adopted supplemental retirement plans as listed in Exhibit A as the same have
been or may hereafter be amended or restated (hereinafter called the "Plans" or,
where the context requires the singular, the "Plan"); and
WHEREAS, the Company has incurred, or expects to incur liability under the terms
of such Plans, with respect to the individuals participating in such Plans;
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to establish a trust (hereinafter called "Trust")
and to contribute to the Trust assets that shall be held therein, subject to the
claims of the Company's creditors in the event of the Company's Insolvency, as
herein defined, until paid to the Plans' participants and their beneficiaries in
such manner and at such times as specified in the Plans;
1
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that the Trust shall constitute an
unfunded arrangement and shall not affect the status of the Plans as unfunded
plans maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select
group of management or highly compensated employees for purposes of Title I of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended;
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the Company to make contributions to the Trust
to provide itself with a source of funds to assist it in the meeting of its
liabilities under the Plans;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties do hereby establish the Trust and agree that the
Trust shall be comprised, held and disposed of as follows:
2
ARTICLE I - THE TRUST AND TRUST FUND
1.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUST.
(a) The Company hereby deposits with the Trustee in trust $4 million,
which shall become the principal of the Trust to be held, administered
and disposed of by Trustee as provided in this Trust Agreement.
(b) The Trust hereby established shall be irrevocable.
(c) The Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, of which the Company is
the grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J,
chapter 1, subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(hereinafter referred to as the "Code"), and shall be construed
accordingly.
(d) The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon shall be held
separate and apart from other funds of the Company and shall be used
exclusively for the uses and purposes of the Plans' participants and
general creditors as herein set forth. The Plans' participants and
their beneficiaries shall have no preferred claim on, or any
beneficial ownership interest in any assets of the Trust. Any rights
created under the Plans and this Trust Agreement shall be mere
unsecured contractual rights of the Plans' participants and their
beneficiaries against the Company. Any assets held by the Trust will
be subject to the claims of the Company's general creditors under
federal and state law in the event of Insolvency, as defined in
Section 2.1 herein.
(e) The Company, in its sole discretion, may at any time, or from time to
time, make additional deposits of cash or other property in trust with
the Trustee to augment the principal to be held, administered and
disposed of by the Trustee as provided in this Trust Agreement.
Neither the Trustee nor any Plan's participant or beneficiary shall
have any right to compel such additional deposits. Not later than
seven (7) days after the occurrence of a Potential Change in Control
of the Company (as defined in Article IV hereof), the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee to be held
3
in trust hereunder an additional amount of cash (or marketable
securities having a fair market value equal to such amount, or some
combination thereof) representing the sum of the amounts, after taking
into account the current cash surrender value of life insurance
contacts owned by the Trust and the fair market value of other assets
then held in the Trust, determined by the Company's actuaries, using
the assumptions and methodology set forth in Exhibit B, that will be
sufficient to fund the Company's obligations to pay the Executives' or
their beneficiaries' projected benefits under the Plans, plus such
other amounts as may be necessary for expenses and other costs of
maintaining the Trust (such sum, collectively, the "Funding Amount").
In the event of a Potential Change in Control of the Company, the
Company may at six-month intervals commencing on the date of such
Potential Change in Control or more frequently as determined by the
Company, unless the Trust Funds (as defined in Section 3.1(a)) shall
theretofore have been released pursuant to Article II hereof,
recalculate the Funding Amount as of the end of the month immediately
preceding such six-month or such other more frequent interval date,
treating the Potential Change in Control as having occurred at the end
of such month. If the amount so calculated exceeds the fair market
value of the assets then held in the Trust (as determined above), the
Company may pay to the Trustee an amount in cash (or marketable
securities having a fair market value equal to such amount, or some
combination thereof) equal to such excess. If the Funding Amount so
calculated is less than the fair market value of the assets held in
trust, the Trustee, upon receipt of a written request from the
Company, which written request is received by the Trustee prior to the
occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company, shall distribute to
the Company such difference in cash.
(f) Upon a Change in Control of the Company, the Company shall, as soon as
possible, but in no event longer than 10 days following the Change in
Control of the Company, as defined herein, make an irrevocable
contribution to the Trust of the excess, if any, of the Funding Amount
over fair market value of the assets then held in the Trust (as
determined
4
above) determined as of the date on which the Change in Control of the
Company occurred.
(g) The Company shall provide the Trustee with a certified copy of the
Plans and all amendments thereto and of the resolutions of the Board
of Directors of the Company approving the Plans and all amendments
thereto, promptly upon their adoption or, if later, the date of this
Trust Agreement.
1.2 PAYMENTS TO PLANS' PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR BENEFICIARIES.
(a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee a schedule (the "Payment
Schedule") in the format and as initially provided in Exhibit C that
indicates the amounts payable in respect of each Plan's participant
(and his or her beneficiaries), that provides a formula or other
instructions acceptable to Trustee for determining the amounts so
payable, the form in which such amount is to be paid (as provided for
or available under the Plans), and the time of commencement for
payment of such amounts. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Trustee shall make payments to the Plans' participants and their
beneficiaries in accordance with such Payment Schedule. The Trustee
shall make provision for the reporting and withholding of any federal
or state taxes that may be required to be withheld with respect to the
payment of benefits pursuant to the terms of the Plans and shall pay
amounts withheld to the appropriate taxing authorities or determine
that such amounts have been reported, withheld and paid by the
Company. A modified Payment Schedule shall be delivered by the
Company to the Trustee annually upon each anniversary of the effective
date of this Trust Agreement and upon the occurrence of any event
requiring a modification of the Payment Schedule. Following a Change
in Control of the Company, the Company shall also furnish a Payment
Schedule or modified Payment Schedule for any or all Plan(s) upon
request by the Trustee at any other time.
(b) The entitlement of a Plan participant or his or her beneficiaries to
benefits under the Plans shall be determined by the Company or such
party as it
5
designates under the Plans, and any claim for such benefits shall be
considered and reviewed under the procedures set out in the Plans.
(c) The Company may make payment of benefits directly to Plans'
participants or their beneficiaries as they become due under the terms
of the Plans. The Company shall notify the Trustee of its decision to
make payment of benefits directly prior to the time amounts are
payable to participants or their beneficiaries. In addition, if the
principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon, are not sufficient
to make payments of benefits in accordance with the terms of the
Plans, the Company shall make the balance of each such payment as it
falls due. The Trustee shall notify the Company where principal and
earnings are not sufficient and shall thereafter reduce the amounts
payable to the Plans' participants or their beneficiaries by
multiplying such amounts by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
value of the Trust Fund and the denominator of which is the sum of the
actuarial present value of the Plans' participants' (or their
beneficiaries') estimated monthly accrued benefits shown on Exhibit C.
The actuarial present values shall be calculated as of the date that
the monthly benefits are to be paid. Upon a Change in Control of the
Company, a modified Payment Schedule will be prepared.
(d) In the event any Executive is determined to be subject to federal
income tax on any amount payable under the Trust prior to the time of
payment hereunder, the entire amount determined to be so taxable shall
be distributed by the Trustee to such Executive. An amount shall be
determined to be subject to federal income tax upon the earliest of:
(i) a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue
Service (hereinafter referred to as the "IRS") addressed to the
Executive which is not appealed to the courts;
(ii) a final determination by the United States Tax Court or any
other federal court affirming any such determination by the IRS;
or
6
(iii) an opinion by the Tax Counsel of the Company, addressed to the
Company and the Trustee, that, by reason of Treasury
Regulations, amendments to the Code, published IRS rulings,
court decisions or other substantial precedent, amounts
hereunder are subject to federal income tax prior to payment.
The Company shall undertake at its sole expense to defend any tax
claims described herein which are asserted by the IRS or by any state
revenue authority against any Executive, including attorneys' fees and
costs of appeal, and shall have the sole authority to determine
whether or not to appeal any determination made by the IRS, by any
state revenue authority or by a lower court. The Company shall also
reimburse any Executive for any interest or penalties in respect of
federal or state tax claims hereunder upon receipt of documentation of
same. In addition, the Company shall reimburse any Executive for the
amount of excise taxes paid by the Executive pursuant to a
determination of the IRS under Section 4999 of the Code, as it may be
amended from time to time, with respect to the payment made to the
Executive by the Trust and with respect to any such reimbursement,
following a final determination of a federal court affirming any such
determination by the IRS. Any distributions from the Trust Fund to an
Executive under this Section 1.2(d) shall be applied to reduce Company
liabilities to such Executive under the Plans.
7
ARTICLE II - RELEASE OF THE TRUST FUNDS
2.1 TRUSTEE RESPONSIBILITY REGARDING PAYMENTS TO PLANS' PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR
BENEFICIARIES WHEN COMPANY IS INSOLVENT.
(a) The Trustee shall cease payment of benefits to the Plans' participants
and their beneficiaries if the Company is Insolvent. The Company
shall be considered "Insolvent" for purposes of this Trust Agreement
if:
(i) the Company is unable to pay its debts as they become due;
or
(ii) the Company is subject to a pending proceeding as a debtor
under the United States Bankruptcy Code; or
(iii) the Company shall commence a voluntary case under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now
or hereafter in effect, or consent to the entry of an
order for relief in an involuntary case under any such
law, or consent to the appointment of taking possession by
receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,
sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for
any substantial part of its property, or make any
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take any
corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing.
(b) At all times during the continuance of the Trust, as provided in
Section 1.1(d) hereof, the principal and income of the Trust shall be
subject to claims of general creditors of the Company under federal
and state law as set forth below:
(i) The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of
the Company shall have the duty to inform the Trustee in
writing of the Company's Insolvency. If a person claiming
to be a creditor of the Company alleges in writing to
Trustee that the Company has become Insolvent, the Trustee
shall determine whether the Company is Insolvent and,
pending such determination, the
8
Trustee shall discontinue payment of benefits to Plans'
participants or their beneficiaries.
(ii) Unless the Trustee has actual knowledge of the
Company's Insolvency, or has received notice from the
Company or a person claiming to be a creditor alleging
that the Company is Insolvent, the Trustee shall have
no duty to inquire whether the Company is Insolvent.
The Trustee may in all events rely on such evidence
concerning the Company's solvency as may be furnished
to the Trustee and that provides the Trustee with a
reasonable basis for making a determination concerning
the Company's solvency.
(iii) If at any time the Trustee has determined that the
Company is Insolvent, the Trustee shall discontinue
payments to Plans' participants or their beneficiaries
and shall hold the assets of the Trust for the benefit
of the Company's general creditors. Nothing in this
Trust Agreement shall in any way diminish any rights
as general creditors of the Company with respect to
benefits due under the Plans or otherwise.
(iv) The Trustee shall resume the payment of benefits to
the Plans' participants or their beneficiaries in
accordance with Section 1.2 of this Trust Agreement
only after the Trustee has determined that the Company
is not Insolvent (or is no longer Insolvent).
(c) Provided that there are sufficient assets, if the Trustee discontinues
the payment of benefits from the Trust pursuant to Section 2.1(b)
hereof and subsequently resumes such payments, the first payment
following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount of
all payments due to the Plans' participants or their beneficiaries
under the terms of the Plans for the period of such discontinuance,
less the aggregate amount of any payments made to the Plans'
participants or their beneficiaries by the Company in lieu of the
payments provided for hereunder during any such period of
discontinuance.
9
2.2 RECAPTURE OF EXCESS ASSETS.
(a) In the event the Trust shall hold Excess Assets (as defined in
subsection (b)), the Company, at its option, may direct the Trustee to
return part or all of such Excess Assets to the Company.
(b) "Excess Assets" is that market value of assets of the Trust which are
in excess of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the present
value of all benefits payable under the Plans on a pre-tax basis to
the Plans' participants and their beneficiaries.
(c) The calculation required by Section 2.2(b) shall be based on the terms
of the Plans and the actuarial assumptions and methodology set forth
in Exhibit B, except that life insurance contracts owned by the Trust
shall be valued at their current cash surrender value. Before a
Change in Control of the Company, the calculation shall be made by the
Company or a qualified actuary or consultant selected by the Company.
After a Change in Control of the Company, the calculation shall be
made by a qualified actuary or consultant selected by the Trustee.
(d) Excess Assets shall be returned to the Company in the following order
of priority:
(i) Cash and cash equivalents;
(ii) All taxable investments of the Trust (other than cash and
cash equivalents and contracts with insurers), in such
order as the Company may request;
(iii) All non-taxable investments of the Trust (other than cash
and cash equivalents and contracts with insurers), in such
order as the Company may request; and
(iv) Contracts with insurers.
10
2.3 RETURN OF ASSETS TRANSFERRED TO TRUSTEE UPON POTENTIAL CHANGE IN CONTROL.
In the event the Company delivers funds to the Trustee pursuant to Section
1.1(e) upon a Potential Change in Control of the Company, any such amount
which shall have been transferred pursuant to Section 1.1(e), including any
additional amounts transferred as a result of recalculations at six-month
intervals, shall be returned to the Company no later than the 30th day
following receipt by the Trustee of a notice that the Board of Directors
has adopted a resolution that such Potential Change of Control of the
Company has lapsed unless at any time prior to such return date a Change in
Control of the Company or another Potential Change in Control of the
Company shall have occurred; provided, however, that in no event shall the
corpus of the Trust after any transfer of funds pursuant to this Section
2.3 be less than the corpus of the Trust immediately prior to the initial
transfer of additional funds to the Trust after the occurrence of a
Potential Change in Control of the Company pursuant to Section 1.1(e).
11
ARTICLE III - TRUST FUND AND INVESTMENT AUTHORITY
3.1 TRUST FUND.
(a) As used in this Trust Agreement, the term "Trust Fund" shall mean the
amounts delivered to the Trustee as described in Section 1.1(a) hereof
all amounts delivered thereafter pursuant to Section 1.1(e) and
Section 1.1(f) hereof, plus all interest and dividends paid in respect
thereof (and less such amounts distributed from the Trust pursuant to
Sections 1.2, 2.1, 2.2 and 5.2(i) hereof), in whatever form held or
invested as provided in this Trust Agreement.
(b) The Trust is intended to be a trust of which the Company is treated as
the owner for federal income tax purposes in accordance with the
provisions of Sections 671 through 679 of the Code. If the Trustee,
in its sole discretion, deems it necessary or advisable for the
Company or the Trustee to undertake or refrain from undertaking any
actions (including, but not limited to, making or refraining from
making any elections or filings) in order to ensure that the Company
is at all times treated as the owner of the Trust for federal income
tax purposes, the Company or the Trustee will undertake or refrain
from undertaking (as the case may be) such actions. The Company
hereby irrevocably authorizes the Trustee to be its attorney-in-fact
for the purpose of performing any act which the Trustee, in its sole
discretion, deems necessary or advisable in order to accomplish the
purposes and the intent of this Agreement.
(c) During the term of the Trust, all income received by the Trust, net of
expenses and taxes, shall be accumulated and reinvested.
3.2 INVESTMENT AUTHORITY. Prior to a Change in Control of the Company, the
Trust Fund shall be invested primarily in insurance contracts or policies. The
Trustee shall have the investment discretion and power to invest and reinvest
in, or exchange assets for, any such insurance contracts or policies (including,
by way of example and not by limitation, variable insurance policies where the
cash value is invested in equity or other funds subject to the control of the
insurance carrier and which may increase or
12
decrease in value with the performance of the fund over time), or other
properties (as investments in such other properties may be directed by the
Company or, absent such direction, as the Trustee deems advisable without being
limited in the selection of investments by any statutes, rules of law, custom or
usage). After a Change in Control of the Company, the Trustee shall have and
exercise sole investment discretion with respect to all assets of the Trust,
including the power to appoint an Investment Manager (who may be an affiliate of
the Trustee). Subject to the foregoing, the Trustee shall possess the powers
conferred upon the Trustee either expressly by, or by necessary implication of,
the other provisions of this Trust Agreement, and all other powers, not
inconsistent with law or equity, as may be necessary and proper to attain the
objectives of this Trust Agreement. By way of illustration, and not by way of
limitation, the Trustee shall have power:
(i) to enter into any annuity or other contract or policy with an
insurance company or companies, either as an investment or
otherwise, provided that the Trustee shall be the sole owner of
all such contracts or policies and all such contracts or policies
shall be held as assets of the Trust;
(ii) to invest such amounts as it reasonably determines to be
appropriate for administrative convenience or short term
liquidity needs in interest-bearing depository accounts
established within the Trustee's banking department;
(iii) to purchase, receive or subscribe for any securities or other
property;
(iv) to exercise any conversion privilege or subscription right
available in connection with any such property; to oppose or to
consent to the reorganization, consolidation, merger or
readjustments of the finances of any corporation, entity or
association, or to the sale, mortgage, pledge or lease of the
property of any corporation, entity or association any of the
securities of which may at any time be held by it and to do any
act with reference thereto, including the exercise of options,
the making of agreements or subscriptions and
13
the payment of expenses, assessments or subscriptions, which may
be deemed necessary or advisable in connection therewith and to
hold and retain any securities or other property which it may so
acquire; and to deposit any such property with any protective,
reorganization or similar committee, and to pay part of the
expenses and compensation of any such committee and any
assessments levied with respect to any property so deposited;
(v) to commence or defend suits or legal proceedings and to represent
the Trust in all suits or legal proceedings; to settle,
compromise or submit to arbitration any claims, debts or damages
due or owing to or from the Trust;
(vi) subject to Section 5.2(e) and Section 5.2(f), to have and possess
any or all of the rights of an owner with respect to any life
insurance contract or policy held in the Trust Fund including,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the rights to
receive or apply dividends or distributive shares or loans on
account of any such policy as may be available; to sell, assign
or pledge the policy; to surrender the policy; and to exercise
any option or privilege granted in the policy;
(vii) to register any securities held by it hereunder in its own name
or in the name of a nominee with or without the addition of words
indicating that such securities are held in a fiduciary capacity
and to hold any securities in bearer form and to deposit any
securities or other property in a depository or a clearing
corporation;
(viii) to make, execute and deliver, as Trustee, any and all deeds,
leases, mortgages, conveyances, waivers, releases or other
instruments in writing necessary or desirable for the
accomplishment of any of the powers listed in this Section 3.2;
(ix) to invest in securities (including stock or rights to acquire
stock) or obligations issued by the Company; and
14
(x) to take any and all actions as may be necessary or desirable for
the administration of the Trust and the protection of the Trust
Fund.
All rights associated with assets of the Trust shall be exercised by the
Trustee or the person designated by the Trustee, and shall in no event be
exercisable by or rest with Plan participants except that voting rights

Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company, and subject to the
provisions herein, to:
(a) select Eligible Employees to whom Awards are granted;
(b) determine the size and types of Awards;

for the administration of the Plan.
All Awards hereunder shall be made by the Committee, except that Awards made

Company, or a designee approved by the Committee, provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, all Awards to Insiders, must be approved by
the Committee prior to the grant of the Award.
3.2 DECISIONS BINDING. All determinations and decisions made by the
Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and all related orders or
resolutions of the Board of Directors shall be final, conclusive and binding
on all persons, including the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, its
shareholders, Participants, and their estates and beneficiaries.
ARTICLE 4. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
4.1 NUMBER OF SHARES. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.4
herein, no more than 7,500,000 Shares may be issued under the Plan, of which
a maximum of fifty percent (50%) of such Shares may be issued pursuant to
Other Stock Based Awards. These Shares may consist in whole or in part, of
authorized and unissued Shares, or of treasury Shares. No fractional Shares
shall be issued under the Plan; however, cash may be paid in lieu of any
fractional Shares in settlements of Awards under the Plan.
For purposes of determining the number of Shares available for issuance
under the Plan:
(a) The grant of an Award shall reduce the authorized pool of Shares by
the number of Shares subject to such Award while such Award is outstanding,
except to the extent that such an Award is in tandem with another Award
covering the same or fewer Shares.
(b) Any Shares tendered by a Participant in payment of the price of a
Stock Option or stock option exercised under any other Company plan shall be
credited to the authorized pool of Shares.
(c) To the extent that any Shares covered by SARs are not issued upon
the exercise of such SAR, the authorized pool of Shares shall be credited
for such number of Shares.
3
(d) To the extent that an Award is settled in cash or any form other
than in Shares, the authorized pool of Shares shall be credited with the
appropriate number of Shares represented by such settlement of the Award, as
determined at the sole discretion of the Committee (subject to the
limitation set forth in Section 4.2 herein).
(e) If Shares are used to pay dividends and dividend equivalents in
conjunction with outstanding Awards, an equivalent number of Shares shall be
deducted from the Shares available for issuance.
4.2 LAPSED AWARDS. If any Award granted under the Plan is cancelled,
terminates, expires or lapses for any reason, any Shares subject to such
Award shall again be available for the grant of an Award under the Plan;
except, however, to the extent that such Award was granted in tandem with
another Award, any Shares issued pursuant to the exercise or settlement of
such other Award shall not be credited back.
4.3 EFFECT OF ACQUISITION. Any Awards granted by the Company in
substitution for awards or rights issued by a company whose shares or assets
are acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary shall not reduce the number of
Shares available for grant under the Plan.
4.4 ADJUSTMENTS IN AUTHORIZED SHARES. Subject to Article 9 herein, in the
event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization,
separation, spin-off, liquidation, stock dividend, split-up, Share
combination or other change in the corporate or capital structure of the
Company affecting the Shares, such adjustment shall be made in the number
and class of Shares which may be delivered under the Plan, and in the number
and class of and/or price of Shares subject to outstanding Awards granted
under the Plan, as may be determined to be appropriate and equitable by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of
rights; provided that the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always
be a whole number.
4.5 COMMITTEE DETERMINATION. In determining the number of Shares available
for issuance under the Plan as contemplated by this Article 4, the Committee
shall interpret and apply the provisions of this Article so as to permit the
Plan to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, or any successor rule
thereto.
ARTICLE 5. PARTICIPATION
5.1 SELECTION OF PARTICIPANTS. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the
Committee may, from time to time, select from all Eligible Employees, those
to whom Awards shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of
each Award. No Eligible Employee shall have the right to receive an Award
under the Plan, or, if selected to receive an Award, the right to continue
to receive same. Further, no Participant shall have any rights, by reason of
the grant of any award under the Plan to continued employment by the Company
or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. There is no obligation for uniformity of
treatment of Participants under the Plan.
5.2 AWARD AGREEMENT. All Awards granted under the Plan shall be evidenced
by an Award Agreement that shall specify the terms, conditions, limitations
and such other provisions applicable to the Award as the Committee shall
determine.
ARTICLE 6. AWARDS
Except as otherwise provided for in Section 3.1 herein, Awards may be
granted by the Committee to Eligible Employees at any time, and from time to
time as the Committee shall determine. The Committee shall have complete
discretion in determining the number of Awards to grant (subject to the
Share limitations set forth in Section 4.1 herein) and, consistent with the
provisions of the Plan, the terms, conditions and limitations pertaining to
such Awards.
The Committee may provide that the Participant shall have the right to
utilize Shares to pay all or any part of the purchase price of the exercise
of any Stock Option or option to acquire Shares
4
under any another Honeywell incentive compensation plan, if permitted under
such plan; provided that the number of Shares, bearing restrictive legends,
if any, which are used for such exercise, shall be subject to the same
restrictions following such exercise.
6.1 STOCK OPTIONS. Stock Options may be granted at a price which shall not
be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share
on the date the Stock Option is granted.
A Stock Option may be exercised at such times as may be specified in an
Award Agreement, in whole or in installments, which may be cumulative and
shall expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of
grant; provided that no Stock Option shall be exercisable later than ten
(10) years after the date granted. Prior to the exercise of a Stock Option,
the holder thereof shall not have any rights of a shareholder with respect
to any of the Shares covered by the Stock Option.
Stock Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice of
exercise to the Director of Executive Compensation of the Company or such
other person specified by the Committee, setting forth the number of Shares
with respect to which the Stock Option is to be exercised, accompanied by
full payment of the total Stock Option price and any required withholding
taxes. Payment shall be made either (a) in cash or its equivalent, (b) by
tendering previously acquired Shares having a Fair Market Value at the time
of exercise equal to the total price of the Stock Option, or (c) by a
combination of (a) and (b). The Committee also may allow exercises to be
made with the delivery of payment as permitted under Federal Reserve Board
Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law restrictions, or by any
other means which the Committee determines to be consistent with the Plan's
purpose and applicable law. The Committee may provide that the exercise of a
Stock Option, by tendering previously acquired shares, will entitle the
exercising Participant to receive another Stock Option covering the same
number of shares tendered and with a price of no less than the Fair Market
Value on the date of grant of such other option.
6.2 STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. SARs may be granted at a price which shall
not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the date the SAR is granted, in tandem with a Stock Option, such
that the exercise of the SAR or related Stock Option will result in a
forfeiture of the right to exercise the related Stock Option for an
equivalent number of shares, or independently of any Stock Option.
An SAR may be exercised at such times as may be specified in an Award
Agreement, in whole or in installments, which may be cumulative and shall
expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant;
provided that no SAR shall be exercisable later than ten (10) years after
the date granted.
SARs shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice of exercise to
the Director of Executive Compensation of the Company or such other person
specified by the Committee, setting forth the number of Shares with respect
to which the SAR is to be exercised.
6.3 OTHER STOCK BASED AWARDS. Other Stock Based Awards may be granted to
such Eligible Employees as the Committee may select, at any time and from
time to time as the Committee shall determine. The Committee shall have
complete discretion in determining the number of Shares subject to such
Awards, the consideration for such Awards and the terms, conditions and
limitations pertaining to same including, without limitation, restrictions
based upon the achievement of specific business objectives, tenure, and
other measurements of individual or business performance, and/or
restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws, and
conditions under which same will lapse. Such Awards may include the issuance
of Shares in payment of amounts earned under other incentive compensation
plans of the Company. The terms, restrictions and conditions of the Award
need not be the same with respect to each Participant.
The Committee may, at its sole discretion, direct the Company to issue
Shares subject to such restrictive legends and/or stop transfer instructions
as the Committee deems appropriate.

ARTICLE 7. DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS
The Committee may provide that Awards earn dividends or dividend
equivalents. Such dividend equivalents may be paid currently or may be
credited to an account established by the Committee under the Plan in the
name of the Participant. In addition, dividends or dividend equivalents paid
on outstanding Awards or issued Shares may be credited to such account
rather than paid currently. Any crediting of dividends or dividend
equivalents may be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the
Committee may establish, including reinvestment in additional Shares or
Share equivalents.
ARTICLE 8. DEFERRALS AND SETTLEMENTS
Payment of Awards may be in the form of cash, shares, other Awards, or in
such combinations thereof as the Committee shall determine at the time of
grant, and with such restrictions as it may impose. Payment may be made in a
lump sum or in installments as prescribed by the Committee. The Committee
may also require or permit participants to elect to defer the issuance of
Shares or the settlement of Awards in cash under such rules and procedures
as it may establish under the Plan. It may also provide that deferred
settlements include the payment or crediting of interest on the deferral
amounts or the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents on deferred
settlements denominated in Shares.

the Plan.
11.2 SHARE WITHHOLDING. Upon a Withholding Event, the Committee may
require one or more classes of Participants to satisfy the withholding
requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares
having a Fair Market Value, on the date the tax is to be determined, equal

settlement thereof, with the Company's approval, or paid by such person in
satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against
such person, provided such person shall give the Company an opportunity, at
its own expense, to handle and defend the same before such person undertakes

indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of
indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, as a matter of law, or
otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold
them harmless.

be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by
Awards under the Plan. Any liability of the Company to any person with
respect to any Award under the Plan shall be based solely upon any
contractual obligations that may be effected pursuant to the Plan. No such

Award shall be subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Committee
shall determine, in its sole discretion, that the listing, registration or
qualification of any Award under the Plan upon any securities exchange or
under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any government
regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in
connection with, the granting of such Award or the grant or settlement
thereof, such Award may not be exercised or settled in whole or in part
unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall
have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the
Committee.

option may be exercised at any time or from time to time during the term of the
Option as to any or all full Shares which have become purchasable under the
provisions of the Option. Any exercise of an Option shall be accomplished by the

Option shall not be exercisable at a time when there remains outstanding (within
the meaning of Section 422A(c)(7) of the Code, the whole or part of any Stock

any time unless the holder thereof is then an employee of the Company, a
subsidiary or Affiliate. The holder of an Option shall not have any rights of a
shareholder with respect to any of the Shares covered by the Option prior to the
date the option is properly exercised. The Committee shall have authority in its
discretion to prescribe in any Option Agreement the action which shall
constitute proper exercise of an Option.

for all purposes as having become the registered owner of the Shares as to which
the Option has been exercised as of the close of business on the date of
exercise, provided that the Company shall not be obligated to deliver a
certificate for such Shares prior to its receipt of payment in full of the
purchase price thereof and any required withholding taxes.

during such employment to the service of the Company, such Subsidiary or

contract between the Company and such employee) be at the pleasure of the
management of the Company and at such compensation as management shall
reasonably determine from time to time.
7.07 ACCEPTANCE OF OPTIONS - No Option granted under the Plan shall be
exercisable unless the Participant to whom the Option is granted shall have
executed and delivered to the Company an Option Agreement within 45 days after
the Option Agreement shall have been sent to the employee by or on behalf of the

Awards.
3.4 ELIGIBILITY OF EMPLOYEE'S POSITION. The employee's position must be
recommended for participation by the top management of his or her unit, and
satisfy the following criteria:
(a) ACCOUNTABILITY OF POSITION.
The employee's position must be sufficiently accountable to directly
impact the financial results of Honeywell or one or more of its
operating Units.
6
(b) REPORTING LEVEL OF POSITION.
The employee's position must report at a sufficiently high level in
the organization to regularly impact management decisions of Honeywell
or one or more of its operating Units.
7
SECTION 4 - SALARY STRUCTURE OF PARTICIPANTS
4.1 DETERMINATION OF BASE SALARY. The Base Salary of Participants is
determined from time to time as follows:
(a) JOB EVALUATION. The Honeywell executive job evaluation method is used
for preparing position descriptions, assessing position
responsibilities, and assigning positions to salary grades and ranges.
Each position is evaluated by the Honeywell Corporate Compensation
Department and approved by a level of management designated by the
Company as appropriate for the job level involved.
(b) SALARY GRADES AND RANGES. Each salary grade is assigned a salary
range. A salary grade encompasses positions whose market pay
typically falls within a plus or minus 20 percent of the salary grade
midpoint. Salary grade midpoints generally have a 13 to 15 percent
differential.
4.2 ADJUSTMENTS TO BASE SALARY. The Base Salary of Participants may be
adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) REVIEW OF SALARY RANGES. Salary ranges are reviewed at least annually
and adjusted as necessary to assure that they are competitive with pay
opportunities provided by selected, large, high-technology companies.
Changes in salary ranges are approved by the Committee.
(b) CHANGES IN BASE SALARY. Changes in Base Salary are designed to
reflect performance of the Participant over time, as measured against
the performance requirements of the Participant's position. Such
adjustments to Base Salary must be approved by the next two higher
levels of Company management or, if no such levels exist, the
Committee.
8
SECTION 5 - CALCULATION OF INCENTIVE AWARD
5.1 ESTABLISHING UNIT OBJECTIVES. At the beginning of each year, Unit
Objectives are approved by Corporate Management for the Company and each of the
Incentive Units for the year. Such objectives may vary by Unit to reflect the
characteristics and emphases of the Units.
5.2 ASSESSING UNIT PERFORMANCE. After the end of each year, actual performance
against unit objectives is measured for the Company and each of its Units.
Actual results for each objective are expressed as a percentage of the objective
or plan. Performance against any one objective is limited to 200 percent after
leveraging under Section 5.5.
5.3 ADJUSTING UNIT FINANCIAL RESULTS. A Unit Performance Adjustment to
compensate for unforeseen circumstances which significantly impact the Unit's
performance may be applied by Corporate Management to reflect a dollar impact
which was not taken into account in establishing Unit objectives for the
calendar year.
5.4 WEIGHTING UNIT PERFORMANCE. The percentage of the Unit's performance
determined under Section 5.2, after application of any Unit Performance
Adjustment, shall thereupon be weighted by the respective percentage assigned by
Corporate Management to each objective (for example, 50 percent ROI, 50 percent
Operating Profit), equal to a 100 percent total, to arrive at the Composite
Performance Percentage for the Unit.
5.5 CALCULATING LEVERAGED INCENTIVE PERCENTAGE. The Unit's Composite
Performance Percentage is then adjusted up or down by a Leveraged Incentive
Percentage for each one percent deviation from On-Plan performance between 70
and 130 percent, or such other range as determined by Corporate Management and
approved by the Committee prior to the beginning of the calendar year to which
an Award relates, to arrive at the Unit's Leveraged Incentive Percentage.
5.6 DETERMINING ORGANIZATIONAL INFLUENCE WEIGHTINGS. Unless otherwise approved
by the Chief Executive Officer, the Unit's Leveraged Incentive Percentage
9
shall be weighted according to Influence Weightings to determine the Composite
Incentive Percentage of the Unit:
(a) COMPANY INFLUENCE. From 0 to 20 percent of a Unit's Composite
Incentive Percentage, as determined in the sole discretion of the
Chief Executive Officer, shall be based upon the performance of the
Company.
(b) UNIT INFLUENCE. At least 40 percent of a Unit's Composite Incentive
Performance shall be based on its own performance.
(c) OTHER UNIT INFLUENCE. Where a Unit has a significant interdependence
with another Unit, additional approved Influence Weightings may be
used in determining the Unit's Composite Incentive Percentage.
5.7 ESTABLISHING ON-PLAN INCENTIVE FUND. The On-Plan Incentive Percentage for
each Participant is multiplied by his or her annual Base Salary for the calendar
year or, (i) in the event that the Participant is promoted or demoted during the
calendar year by each Base Salary applicable to the Participant on a pro-rata
basis for that portion of the calendar year, (ii) in the event a Participant
retires, was laid off, or left work because of death or Permanent and Total
Disability, or who became a Participant in the Plan after January 1 of the
calendar year, by his or her Base Salary for the months he or she was a
Participant in the Plan. Such amounts shall then be added to an amount
calculated in that manner for all other Participants in the Unit in order to
arrive at the On-Plan Incentive Fund for the Unit.
5.8 COMPUTING UNIT INCENTIVE FUND. The Unit's Composite Incentive Percentage
is multiplied by the On-Plan Incentive Fund of the Unit and may then be
increased or decreased by Corporate Management provided that the sum of Unit
Incentive Funds so adjusted may not exceed the sum of such funds prior to such
adjustment.
5.9 DETERMINING FINAL INCENTIVE FUND. At the end of each calendar year,
Corporate Management assesses a Unit's performance against both its financial
and non-financial objectives and may, in its discretion, adjust the Unit
Incentive Fund by an Incentive Fund Adjustment of a plus or minus percentage no
greater than 20 percent of the Unit's On Plan Incentive Fund to reflect his or
her assessment of the Unit's total
10
performance, including its attainment of non-financial objectives, to determine
the Final Incentive Fund of the Unit. Non-financial objectives may vary by Unit
and may include, among other factors, innovation, risk taking, human resource
productivity improvement, equal opportunity, Company image, customer service,
product development, and progress toward long-term objectives. In the case of
individual Presidents and inside directors of Honeywell, the Committee assesses
the performance of these Participants against such objectives which it may
select and may adjust the Incentive Fund applicable to those Participants in the
same manner as provided above for other Participants in this Section 5.9 to
reflect its assessment of such Participants' performance.
5.10 ALLOCATING THE UNIT'S FINAL INCENTIVE FUND TO PARTICIPANTS. The Unit's
Final Incentive Fund is allocated to individual Participants by the Top
Management of Unit, reviewed by appropriate higher level management, approved by
Corporate Management and, except as otherwise provided in Section 7, paid to the
Participant in the month of February of the calendar year following the
incentive year during which the Award was earned unless the Participant has
elected to defer payment of the Award in accordance with Section 8. Individual
Awards are based on the Unit's Final Incentive Fund adjusted to reflect the
Participant's actual performance against individual goals and objectives. The
sum of individual awards for a Unit cannot exceed such Unit's Final Incentive
Fund.
5.11 LIMITATIONS. The amount of total Incentive Awards distributed under the
Plan is limited as follows:
(a) PERCENTAGE OF ON-PLAN INCENTIVE. No Participant or Unit may receive
more than 200 percent of his or its On-Plan Incentive Fund.
(b) AMOUNT OF INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. The amount which the Company may
distribute as Awards for any calendar year pursuant to the Plan to
those Participants that are determined by the Committee to be the
executives subject to the limit on incentive compensation under
Article XI of Honeywell's By-laws shall not exceed the amount which,
when added to the amount of incentive compensation accrued for such
year under the Honeywell Long-Range Stock Incentive Plan and any
performance-
11
related award under the Honeywell Stock and Incentive Plan with
respect to such executives, would equal the limit on incentive
compensation for such year under that Article of the By-Laws, as in
effect at the end of such year. Individual payments under this Plan
to such Participants shall be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary
to comply with this limitation after any payments under the Honeywell
Long-Range Stock Incentive Plan to these Participants have first been
reduced.
12
SECTION 6 - LOCATION EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PLANS
6.1 GENERAL. An Incentive Unit may, with the approval of the Committee,
administer a "location executive compensation plan" under and pursuant to the
provisions of this Plan. Such plans shall be administered by the Unit's
president with all payments of Incentive awards subject to his or her discretion
as exercised in accordance with the rules established by the Committee as
permitted by Section 3.2.
6.2 HOME AND BUILDING CONTROL/INTERNATIONAL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN. The
Home and Building Control/International Executive Compensation Plan constitutes
a location executive compensation plan which has been approved by the Committee.
It shall be administered by the President, Home and Building
Control/International, pursuant to the terms of this Plan except that Section
5.6(a) shall not be applicable.
6.3 INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION CONTROL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN. The Industrial
Automation Control Executive Compensation Plan constitutes a location executive
compensation plan which has been approved by the Committee. It shall be
administered by the President, Industrial Automation Control, pursuant to the
terms of this Plan except that Section 5.6(a) shall not be applicable.
6.4 MICROSWITCH EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN. The Microswitch Executive
Compensation Plan constitutes a location executive compensation plan which has
been approved by the Committee. It shall be administered by the President,
Industrial Automation Control, pursuant to the terms of this Plan except that
Section 5.6(a) shall not be applicable.
13
SECTION 7 - DEFERRED PAYMENT OF AWARDS
7.1 ELECTION TO DEFER. Not later than the last day of the first calendar
quarter during 1985 and not later than the last day of the year prior to the
year to which an Incentive Award relates during calendar years thereafter, each
Participant shall be provided the opportunity to make an irrevocable election to
defer the payment of the Award for that respective calendar year.
7.2 AMOUNT OF DEFERRAL. Each Participant may elect to defer the payment of a
specified dollar amount, any excess over a specified dollar amount, or a
designated percentage of the Award. The minimum amount of the Award which may
be deferred with respect to a calendar year is $1,000.
7.3 PERIOD OF DEFERRAL. Subject to earlier payment under Section 7.6, a
Participant may elect to defer commencement of payment of the Award until the
earlier of March 15 of the calendar year following the Participant's Early
Retirement Date or Normal Retirement following the Participant's Normal
Retirement Date.
7.4 DESIGNATION OF FORM OF PAYMENT. Each Participant who elects to receive
deferred payment of his Award may specify whether such deferred amount is to be
paid in a lump sum on or about March 15 of the year following the earlier of the
year in which the Participant's Early Retirement Date or Normal Retirement Date
occurs, or in approximately equal annual installments over a period of not more
than ten (10) years commencing on or about March 15 of the year following the
earlier of the year in which the Participant's Early Retirement Date or Normal
Retirement Date occurs.
7.5 CREDITS TO DEFERRED AWARD ACCOUNT. In the event that the Participant
elects to defer payment of his or her Award, a credit in the amount of such
deferred payment shall be made to the Participant's Deferred Award Account no
later than February 28 of the calendar year following the incentive year during
which the Award was earned. During the term of the Plan, interest shall be
credited to each Participant's Deferred Award Account (a) annually as of
February 15, (b) as of the last day of the month preceding a Change in Control
of the Company, and (c) at the time of distribution of the entire balance of or
annual installment from such Account for the year or portion thereof then ended,
based on the average daily balance of the Account for such year or portion
14
thereof, at the average effective interest rate on the composite of long-term
and short-term borrowings of Honeywell Inc. and designated finance company
subsidiaries for the five (5) years ending with the calendar year prior to the
calendar year in which interest is being credited, as such rate may be
determined for purposes of the financial reports prepared for the Honeywell
Corporate Treasurer.
7.6 EVENT TRIGGERING PAYMENT OF DEFERRED AWARD ACCOUNT. Participant's Deferred
Award Account shall be paid or commenced to be paid by Honeywell to such
Participant, or, in the event of his or her death or incapacity, to the person
or persons legally entitled thereto, after the earliest to occur of the
following events:
(a) the Participant's Early Retirement Date,
(b) the Participant's Normal Retirement Date,
(c) the Participant's death,
(d) termination of the Participant's employment with the Company for any
reason other than death, Early Retirement, or retirement on or after
his or her Normal Retirement Date, or
(e) a Change in Control as defined in Section 8, with the form and
commencement of such payment being determined by the provisions of
Section 7.7.
7.7 MANNER OF PAYMENT OF DEFERRED AWARD ACCOUNT. The manner of payment of the
Deferred Award Account to a Participant where clauses (a) and (b) of Section 7.6
are applicable shall be in a lump sum which shall be paid to him or her on or
about March 15 of the year following the year in which the earlier of such
events set forth in clauses (a) or (b) occur unless the Participant has elected
installment payments pursuant to Section 7.4 whereby approximately equal annual
installments over a period of not more than ten (10) years shall be made
beginning with an initial installment to be paid on or about March 15 of the
year following the year in which such event occurs. The form of payment of the
Deferred Award Account to a Participant where clauses (c) or (d) of Section 7.6
are applicable shall be in a lump sum which shall be paid to the
15
Participant within sixty (60) days following the occurrence of any event set
forth in such clauses. The form of payment of the Deferred Award Account to a
Participant upon a Change in Control shall be in a manner set forth in Section
8.
7.8 EARLY PAYMENT OF DEFERRED AWARD ACCOUNT. Notwithstanding any contrary
provisions of Section 7, in the event that the Participant or beneficiary incurs
a financial hardship, he or she may apply to the Committee to receive an amount
from the Participant's Deferred Award Account sufficient to satisfy the
emergency need. If the application is approved by the Committee, it will direct
Honeywell to pay an amount necessary to meet the emergency need. The term
"financial hardship" shall mean an event resulting from an illness or accident
of the Participant or of a dependent of the Participant, loss of the
Participant's property due to casualty, the layoff of the Participant or other
circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the
Participant. An event shall not constitute a "financial hardship" to the extent
that such hardship may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by
insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant's assets, to the
extent that the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause a financial
hardship. Also, a "financial hardship" shall not include the need to send a
Participant's child to college or the desire to purchase a home.
7.9 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES. The Committee may adopt such rules and
regulations governing such deferrals and specifications as it deems appropriate.
All deferred payments hereunder shall be paid in cash from the general funds of
the Company and no special or separate fund shall be established and no other
segregation of assets shall be made to assure the payment of benefits hereunder.
16
SECTION 8 - CHANGE IN CONTROL
8.1 PAYMENTS UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan
to the contrary, in the event of a "Change in Control", as defined in this
Section, each Participant shall receive payment of:
(a) the Participant's Incentive Award, based upon an assumption of On-Plan
performance for the incentive year during which such Change in Control
occurs, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of months (calculated to the nearest whole month) of such
Participant's participation in the Plan during the incentive year in
which the Change in Control occurs and the denominator being twelve
and
(b) all amounts, if any, credited to the Participant's Deferred Award
Account, as of the effective date of such Change in Control, including
any interest accrued in accordance with Section 7.5 of the Plan,
which payments shall be distributed on the fifth business day after such Change
in Control as a lump sum cash payment.
8.2 DEFINITION OF CHANGE OF CONTROL. For all purposes of the Plan, a "Change
in Control" of the Company shall have occurred if:
(a) any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")
(other than the Company, any subsidiary of the Company, any "person"
(as hereinabove defined) acting on behalf of the Company as
underwriter pursuant to an offering who is temporarily holding
securities in connection with such offering, any trustee or other
fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the
Company or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the
stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as
their ownership of stock of the Company), is or becomes the
"beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act),
directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
17
representing 30 percent or more of the combined voting power of the
Company's then outstanding securities;
(b) during any period of not more than two consecutive years (not
including any period prior to the execution of this amendment to the
Plan), individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the
Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), and any new director
(other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an
agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in clause
(a), (c) or (d) of this Section) whose election by the Board or
nomination for election by the Company's stockholders was approved by
a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in
office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or
whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved,
cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof;
(c) the stockholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of
the Company with any other corporation, other than (i) a merger or
consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the
Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent
(either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting
securities of the surviving entity) more than 50 percent of the
combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such
surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or
consolidation or (ii) a merger or consolidation effected to implement
a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no
"person" (as hereinabove defined) acquires more than 30 percent of the
combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; or
(d) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation
of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the
Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (or any
transaction having a similar effect).
18
SECTION 9 - CHANGES IN EMPLOYEE STATUS
9.1 TRANSFERS BETWEEN UNITS. A Participant who transfers between Units before
the end of a calendar year shall be eligible to receive an Award based on the
performance of either the old or new Unit or a combination thereof. The
determination will be made by Corporate Management on a case-by-case basis.
Generally, a pro rata allocation will be made, but if an individual transfers
early in a calendar year, the Award may be calculated as if the Participant had
been in the new Unit all year. If the transfer is late in the year, it may be
calculated as if the Participant had been in the former Unit the entire year.
Transfers in the second or third quarter generally result in a prorated
calculation (for example, six months based on the old Unit and six months based
on the new Unit).
9.2 PARTICIPATION FOR A PARTIAL YEAR. A Participant who (i) ceases to be a
Participant in the Plan during a calendar year because of voluntary retirement,
layoff, position assignment, Permanent and Total Disability, or death, or (ii)
becomes a Participant in the Plan after January 1 of any year, shall be eligible
for an Incentive Award determined under Section 5, but pro-rated to reflect the
portion of the year in which he or she was a Participant.
A Participant whose employment terminates because of resignation or Company-
initiated employment termination shall not be eligible for an Incentive Award
for the calendar year in which such employment termination occurs.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Incentive Award for any Participant who
becomes a Participant in the Plan after January 1 of any year solely as a result
of ceasing to be a participant in the Honeywell Senior Management Performance
Incentive Plan, shall be pro-rated only to the extent such person was not an
employee of the Company during such year.
9.3 DISCHARGE. If a Participant is discharged from the Company before an
Incentive Award has been made for a calendar year because of malfeasance (which
shall include, among other reasons, neglect of duties, divulgence of Company
secrets, or breach of Company policy), the Participant shall forfeit any and all
rights he or she would have had to an Incentive Award under the Plan for that
year, unless a specific contrary decision is made by Corporate Management.
19
SECTION 10 - ASSIGNMENT AND BENEFICIARIES
10.1 DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. Neither amounts awarded to a Participant or
credited to the Participant's Deferred Award Compensation Account nor any other
rights or benefits of a Participant under the Plan may be assigned, transferred,
pledged or alienated in any way; provided, however, that a Participant may
designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive after the Participant's
death payments at the times and in the amounts to which the Participant would
have been entitled under the Plan if he or she were alive. The beneficiary or
beneficiaries last designated by the Participant to receive the proceeds under
the Company Basic Life Insurance Plan upon his or her death shall be the
designated beneficiary or beneficiaries for purposes of this Plan. Such
designation of a Participant's beneficiary or beneficiaries may be replaced by a
new designation or may be revoked by the Participant at any time. The
designation or revocation of a beneficiary shall not be effective unless it is
on a form provided for that purpose by the Company, signed by the Participant
and delivered to the Company prior to the Participant's death.
10.2 DISTRIBUTION TO DESIGNATED BENEFICIARY. In the case of death of a
Participant who has made a valid beneficiary designation which has not been
subsequently replaced or revoked, amounts to which the Participant would have
been entitled under the Plan shall be distributed in accordance with the Plan to
the designated beneficiary or beneficiaries to the extent the designation of
such beneficiary or beneficiaries is valid and enforceable under applicable law.
Any amount distributable to a Participant upon death and not subject to such a
designation shall be distributed to the Participant's legal representative or
estate. If there is any question as to the legal right of any beneficiary to
receive the distribution under the Plan, the amount in question may be paid to
the legal representative or estate of the Participant, at the option of the
Committee, in which event the Company shall have no further liability to anyone
with respect to such amount.
20
SECTION 11 - GENERAL CONDITIONS
11.1 LIMITATION OF RIGHTS. Nothing in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to
its provisions shall be construed to:
(a) give any employee of the Company any right to any compensation, except
as specifically provided herein;
(b) be evidence of any agreement, contract, or understanding, expressed or
implied, that the Company will employ a Participant in any particular
position or at any particular rate of remuneration;
(c) limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate a Participant's
employment at any time;
(d) give any Participant any right, title, or interest whatever in or to
any investments which the Company may make to aid it in meeting its
obligations hereunder;
(e) create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the
Company and a Participant or any other person; and
no assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall be segregated with
respect to any deferred amounts and all such amounts shall constitute unsecured
contractual obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries.
11.2 APPLICABLE LAW. All questions pertaining to the construction, validity and
effect of the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the United
States and the State of Minnesota, other than its laws respecting choice of law.

ARTICLE IV - PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
4.1 FORM OF PAYMENT TO PARTICIPANT.
(a) NORMAL FORM OF PAYMENT.
Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph (b) of this Section 4.1, a
benefit under this Plan shall be paid in the form of the benefit paid
with respect to the Participant under his or her Base Plan. Any
election, designation of a beneficiary(ies) or contingent
annuitant(s), or revocation made prior to the Participant's "Benefit
Starting Date" and in effect under the Participant's Base Plan shall
be in effect under this Plan.
(b) LUMP SUM FORM OF PAYMENT.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph (a) of this Section 4.1, a
Participant, who is eligible for Early Retirement or who will become
eligible for Early Retirement within 13 months, may elect to receive
the present value of the benefits payable to him or her under this
Plan, as computed as of the last day of the month in which the earlier
of the dates of the Participant's Early Retirement or Normal
Retirement occurs by utilizing the interest rate and mortality
assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be modified from time to
time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell (or, in the case of the
Participant's earlier death, the present value of such benefits so
computed as of the later of the last day of the month in which the
Participant's death or the Participant's earliest retirement
eligibility under his or her Base Plan occurs) in a lump sum cash
payment. The Participant's written election to receive a lump sum
cash payment shall be submitted on a form provided for that purpose by
the Company, and consented to by the Participant's Spouse in writing
if the Participant is married, and delivered to the Vice President,
Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, at least 13 months
prior to the Participant's Early Retirement or Normal Retirement.
Such Spouse's consent must acknowledge the effect of such election and
be witnessed by a notary public. If a Participant dies after making
such election and prior to his or her Early Retirement or Normal
Retirement, the lump sum
10
cash payment shall be made to the Participant's surviving Spouse in
accordance with Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, whichever may be
applicable, or to the Participant's surviving Children in accordance
with Section 3.7.
4.2 TIME OF PAYMENTS. Benefit payments paid pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2,
respectively, shall begin (or, in lieu thereof, in the event that the
Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), be paid) 30 days after the
Participant's Normal Retirement or Early Retirement, as the case may be.
Payments pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Plan shall commence 30 days after the
later of (a) the last day of the calendar month in which the Participant is
determined to be Permanently and Totally disabled under his or her Base Plan or
(b) 6 months after his or her last full day of active employment if he or she
elects an immediate disability benefit under his or her Base Plan; but if he or
she elects a deferred disability benefit under his or her Base Plan, payments
shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant has complied with Section
4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid) 30 days after his or
her Early Retirement or Normal Retirement. Payments pursuant to Section 3.5 and
3.6 of this Plan, shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant has
complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid)
30 days after the Participant's death if he or she was eligible for Early
Retirement or 30 days after the date he or she would have attained his or her
earliest retirement eligibility under his or her Base Plan. Payments pursuant
to Section 3.7 of this Plan shall commence (or, in the event that the
Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such benefits
shall be paid) 30 days after the date of the Participant's death.
4.3 PAYMENT SUBSEQUENT TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(a) PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Notwithstanding any Plan
provision to the contrary, if within 3 years subsequent to a Change in
Control, a Participant's employment shall be terminated by the
Participant for "Good Reason" (as defined in the Honeywell Key
Employee Severance Plan) or by the Company other than for "Cause" (as
defined in the Honeywell Key Employee Severance Plan) or Permanent and
Total Disability, the present value of the benefits payable pursuant
to Section 3.3 (utilizing the interest rate and mortality assumptions
set forth in Table
11
I, which may be modified from time to time by the Board of Directors
of Honeywell) shall be paid as a lump sum cash payment to the
Participant on the fifth day after such termination.
(b) PAYMENTS UPON IMPOSITION OF FEDERAL OR STATE TAXES. If subsequent to
a Change in Control, any Participant is determined to be subject to
Federal or state income tax on any amount accrued on his or her behalf
under this Plan prior to the time of payment hereunder, Federal or
state taxes attributable to the amount determined to be so taxable
shall be distributed by the Plan to such Participant. An amount
accrued on his or her behalf under this Plan shall be determined to be
subject to Federal income tax upon the earliest of:
(i) a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue
Service (hereinafter referred to as "IRS") addressed to the
Participant which is not appealed to the courts;
(ii) a final determination by the United States Tax Court or any other
Federal Court affirming any such determination by the IRS; or
(iii) an opinion by the Tax Counsel of the Company, addressed to the
Company and the Trustee, that, by reason of Treasury Regulations,
amendments to the Code, published IRS rulings, court decisions or
other substantial precedent, amounts accrued on a Participant's
behalf hereunder are subject to Federal or state income tax prior
to payment.
The Company shall undertake at its sole expense to defend any tax claims
described herein which are asserted by the IRS or by any state revenue
authority against any Participant subsequent to a Change in Control,
including attorney fees and costs of appeal, and shall have the sole
authority to determine whether or not to appeal any determination made by
the IRS, by any state revenue authority or by a lower court. The Company
also agrees to reimburse
12
any Participant for any interest or penalties in respect of Federal or
state tax claims hereunder upon receipt of documentation of same. Any
distributions from this Plan to a Participant under this Section
4.3(b) shall be applied in an equitable manner to reduce Company
liabilities to such Participant under the Plans.
4.4 PAYMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE PARTICIPANT'S RETIREMENT. At any time before or
after a Change in Control, a Participant, after he or she has retired under the
provisions of the Base Plan on or after December 17, 1991, or the surviving
Spouse or beneficiary of the Participant, after the Participant's death
subsequent to such retirement on or after December 17, 1991, may elect to
receive the present value of such benefits or remaining benefits to which he or
she is entitled under this Plan in one lump-sum cash payment at any time after
the Participant's date of retirement or death, respectively, as computed as of
the last day of the month in which the request is received by the Vice
President, Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, by utilizing the
interest rate and mortality assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be
modified from time to time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell, and then
reduced by a penalty, which shall be forfeited to the Company which is equal, to
10 percent of the present value of any unpaid benefits. Payment of such
benefits shall be effected on the last day of the next month following the month
in which the request is received.
13
ARTICLE V - ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
5.1 PERSONNEL COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered by the Personnel
Committee of Honeywell's Board of Directors which shall have the authority to
determine Plan eligibility and the amount of Plan benefits to which a
Participant or beneficiary is entitled to receive, interpret the Plan, maintain
records and issue such regulations as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate. The interpretations of such Committee shall be final. The
Committee shall have absolute discretion in carrying out its responsibilities.
14
ARTICLE VI - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
6.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board of Directors of Honeywell may amend
or terminate the Plan at any time except in the event of a Change in Control as
defined in Section 3.3; provided, however, that no such amendment or termination
shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal or Early Retirement,
death or Total and Permanent Disability of a Participant with respect to the
Participant's employment by the Company prior to the date of such amendment or
termination unless such benefit is or becomes payable under another plan or
practice adopted by such Board of Directors. In the event of a Change in
Control, this Plan may not be amended or terminated in any manner that shall
adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal or Early Retirement, death or
Permanent and Total Disability of, or any available optional form of payment to,
a Participant for a period of 3 years from the date of the Change in Control. In
the event of termination of the Plan, any benefits which have accrued hereunder
shall be paid in the form and at the time determined under Section 3.1(a) of the
Plan.
15
ARTICLE VII - GENERAL CONDITIONS
7.1 NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE BENEFITS. The right to receive
benefits under the Plan may not be anticipated, alienated, sold, transferred,
assigned, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to any charge or legal process.
7.2 APPLICABLE LAW. All questions pertaining to the construction, validity and
effect of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the
United States and the State of Minnesota, other than its laws respecting choice
of law.
16
ARTICLE VIII - FUNDING
8.1 SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments hereunder shall be paid in cash from the
general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be
established since it is the intent to pay benefits as they become payable from
operating revenue. The Company may, however, in its sole discretion, establish
a separate reserve which may be held by it from which such benefits may be paid.
The foregoing shall not preclude the establishment by the Company of a "rabbi
trust" or the use of assets contributed to a "rabbi trust" to pay benefits under
the Plan.
8.2 STATUS OF PARTICIPANTS. A Participant shall have no right, title, or
interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make to aid it
in meeting its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no
action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create
a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and a
Participant or any beneficiary. To the extent that any person acquires a right
to receive payments from the Company, such right shall be no greater than the
right of an unsecured creditor.
8.3 FICA AND FUTA CONTRIBUTIONS ON PLAN BENEFITS. All amounts which have
accrued to a Participant under this Plan with respect to a Participant's service
with the Company after December 31, 1983, as provided in this Section 8.3 shall
be considered "wages" for purposes of the Federal Insurance Contribution Act
("FICA") and the Federal Unemployment Tax Act ("FUTA") as of the earliest of (i)
the date of the commencement of the Participant's Normal Retirement benefits,
Early Retirement benefits, Total and Permanent Disability benefits, or
commencement of Pre-retirement Surviving Spouse Benefits to the Participant's
Spouse or Surviving Children's Benefit to his or her Child or Children ("Benefit
Commencement Date"); (ii) the date in 1993 on which an active Participant
submitted an application for retirement benefits under the Base Plan or resigned
his or her employment with the Company, effective in 1994 but prior to July 1,
1994; or (iii) the date in 1993 on which a specified vested accrued benefit is
determined with respect to any other Participant in this Plan who is designated
by the Vice President Corporate Human Resources and approved by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company prior to December 31, 1993. Attached hereto
17
as Table II is a list of the Participants described in subparts (ii) and (iii)
above and the amount of their accrued benefits under this Plan which became
vested in 1993.
Effective with the first payment made under the Plan after December 31, 1990,
any amount taken into account as wages with respect to a Participant's Benefit
Commencement Date occurring after the applicable effective date specified in the
Social Security Amendment of 1983 by reason of this Section 8.3 shall not again
be treated as wages for FICA or FUTA purposes. However, no Participant shall be
entitled to a refund from the Company of any previously paid FICA or FUTA
contributions as a result of the application of this Section 8.3.
In order to compute the present value of a Participant's benefit under this Plan
for purposes of determining the amount of any FICA or FUTA contribution payable
with respect to such benefit, such present value shall be determined in
accordance with Table I.
18

annuitant(s), or revocation made prior to the Participant's "Benefit
Starting Date" and in effect under the Participant's Base Plan shall

under this Plan, as computed as of the last day of the month in
which the earlier of the date of the Participant's Early Retirement
or Normal Retirement occurs by utilizing the interest rate and
mortality assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be modified
from time to time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc. (or,
in the case of the Participant's earlier death, the present value of
such benefits so computed as of the later of the last day of the
month in which the Participant's death or the Participant's earliest
retirement eligibility under his or her Base Plan occurs) in a lump
sum cash payment. The Participant's written election to receive a
lump sum cash payment shall be submitted on a form provided for that

President, Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, at

Retirement or Normal Retirement, the lump sum
10
cash payment shall be made to the Participant's surviving Spouse in
accordance with Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, whichever may be
applicable, or to the Participant's surviving Children in accordance
with Section 3.7.
4.2 TIME OF PAYMENTS. Benefit payments pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2,
respectively, shall begin (or, in the event that the Participant has complied
with Section 4.1(b), be paid) 30 days after the Participant's Normal Retirement
or Early Retirement, as the case may be. Payments pursuant to Section 3.4 of
the Plan shall commence 30 days after the later of (a) the last day of the
calendar month in which the Participant is determined to be Permanently and
Totally Disabled , or (b) 6 months after his or her last full day of active
employment if he or she elects an immediate disability benefit under his or her
Base Plan; but if he or she elects a deferred disability benefit under his or
her Base Plan, payments shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant
has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be
paid) 30 days after his or her Early Retirement or Normal Retirement. Payments
pursuant to Section 3.5 and 3.6 of this Plan, shall commence (or, in the event
that the Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such
benefits shall be paid) 30 days after the Participant's death if he or she was
eligible for Early Retirement of 30 days after the date he or she would have
attained his or her earliest retirement eligibility under his or her Base Plan.
Payments pursuant to Section 3.7 of this Plan shall commence (or, in the event

provision to the contrary, if within 3 years subsequent to a Change
in Control, a Participant's employment shall be terminated by the
Participant for "Good Reason" (as defined in the Honeywell Key
Employee Severance Plan) or by the Company other than for "Cause"
(as defined in the Honeywell Key Employee Severance Plan) or
Permanent and Total Disability, the present value of the benefits
payable pursuant to Section 3.3 (utilizing the interest rate and
mortality assumptions set forth in Table
11
I, which may be modified from time to time by the Board of Directors
of Honeywell Inc.) and mortality assumptions shall be paid as a lump
sum cash payment to the Participant on the fifth day after such
termination.
(b) PAYMENTS UPON IMPOSITION OF FEDERAL OR STATE TAXES. If subsequent
to a Change in Control, any Participant is determined to be subject
to Federal or state income tax on any amount accrued on his or her
behalf under this Plan prior to the time of payment hereunder,
Federal or state taxes attributable to the amount determined to be
so taxable shall be distributed by the Plan to such Participant. An
amount accrued on his or her behalf under this Plan shall be
determined to be subject to Federal income tax upon the earliest of:
(i) a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue
Service (hereinafter referred to as "IRS") addressed to the
Participant which is not appealed to the courts;
(ii) a final determination by the United States Tax Court or any
other Federal Court affirming any such determination by the
IRS; or
(iii) an opinion by the Tax Counsel of the Company, addressed to
the Company and the Trustee, that, by reason of Treasury
Regulations, amendments to the Code, published IRS rulings,
court decisions or other substantial precedent, amounts
accrued on a Participant's behalf hereunder are subject to
Federal or state income tax prior to payment.
The Company shall undertake at its sole expense to defend any tax claims
described herein which are asserted by the IRS or by any state revenue
authority against any Participant subsequent to a Change in Control,
including attorney fees and costs of appeal, and shall have the sole
authority to determine whether or not to appeal any determination made by
the IRS, by any state revenue authority or by a lower court. The Company
also agrees to reimburse
12
any Participant for any interest or penalties in respect of Federal or
state tax claims hereunder upon receipt of documentation of same. Any
distributions from this Plan to a Participant under this Section 4.3(b)
shall be applied in an equitable manner to reduce Company liabilities to
such Participant under the Plans.
4.4 PAYMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE PARTICIPANT'S RETIREMENT. At any time before
or after a Change in Control, a Participant, after he or she has retired under
the provisions of the Base Plan on or after December 17, 1991, or the surviving
Spouse or beneficiary of the Participant, after the Participant's death
subsequent to such retirement on or after December 17, 1991, may elect to
receive the present value of such benefits or remaining benefits to which he or
she is entitled under this Plan in one lump sum cash payment at any time after
the Participant's date of retirement or death, respectively, as computed as of
the last day of the month in which the request is received by the Vice
President, Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, by utilizing the
interest rate and mortality assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be
modified from time to time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell, and then
reduced by a penalty, which shall be forfeited to the Company which is equal, to
10 percent of the present value of any unpaid benefits. Payment of such
benefits shall be effected on the last day of the next month following the month
in which the request is received.
13
ARTICLE V - ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
5.1 PERSONNEL COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered by the Personnel
Committee of Honeywell's Board of Directors which shall have the authority to
determine Plan eligibility and the amount of Plan benefits to which a
Participant or beneficiary is entitled to receive, to interpret the Plan,
maintain records and issue such regulations as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate. The Committee shall have absolute discretion in carrying out its
responsibilities. The interpretations of such Committee shall be final.
14
ARTICLE VI - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
6.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc. may
amend or terminate the Plan at any time except in the event of a Change in
Control as defined in Section 3.3; provided, however, that no such amendment or
termination shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal or Early
Retirement, death or Permanent and Total Disability of a Participant with
respect to the Participant's employment by the Company prior to the date of such
amendment or termination unless such benefit is or becomes payable under another
plan or practice adopted by such Board of Directors. In the event of a Change
in Control as defined in Section 3.3, the Board may not amend or terminate the
Plan in any manner that shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal
or Early Retirement, death or Permanent and Total Disability of, or any
available optional form of payment to, a Participant for a period of 3 years
from the date of the Change in Control. In the event of termination of the
Plan, any benefits which have accrued hereunder shall be paid in the form and at
the time determined under Section 4.3(a) of the Plan.
15
ARTICLE VII - GENERAL CONDITIONS
7.1 NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE BENEFITS. The right to receive
benefits under the Plan may not be anticipated, alienated, sold, transferred,
assigned, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to any charge or legal process.
7.2 APPLICABLE LAW. All questions pertaining to the construction, validity
and effect of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the
United States and the State of Minnesota, other than its laws respecting choice
of law.
16
ARTICLE VIII - FUNDING
8.1 SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments hereunder shall be paid in cash from the
general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be
established since it is the intent to pay benefits as they become payable from
operating revenue. The Company may, however, in its sole discretion, establish
a separate reserve which may be held by it from which such benefits may be paid.
The foregoing shall not preclude the establishment by the Company of a "rabbi
trust" or the use of assets contributed to a "rabbi trust" to pay benefits under
the Plan.
8.2 STATUS OF PARTICIPANTS. A Participant shall have no right, title, or
interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make to aid it
in meeting its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no
action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create
a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and a
Participant or any beneficiary. To the extent that any person acquires a right
to receive payments from the Company, such right shall be no greater than the
right of an unsecured creditor.
8.3 FICA AND FUTA CONTRIBUTIONS ON PLAN BENEFITS. All amounts which have
accrued to a Participant under this Plan with respect to a Participant's service
with the Company after December 31, 1983, as provided in this Section 8.3 shall
be considered "wages" for purposes of the Federal Insurance Contribution Act
("FICA") and the Federal Unemployment Tax Act ("FUTA") as of the earliest of (i)
the date of the commencement of the Participant's Normal Retirement benefits,
Early Retirement benefits, Total and Permanent Disability benefits, or
commencement of Pre-retirement Surviving Spouse Benefits to the Participant's
spouse or Surviving Children's Benefit to his or her Child or Children ("Benefit
Commencement Date"); (ii) the date in 1993 on which an active Participant
submitted an application for retirement benefits under the Base Plan or resigned
his or her employment with the Company, effective in 1994 but prior to July 1,
1994; or (iii) the date in 1993 on which a specified vested accrued benefit is
determined with respect to any other Participant in this Plan who is designated
by the Vice President Corporate Human Resources and approved by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company prior to December 31, 1993. Attached hereto
17
as Table II is a list of the Participants described in subparts (ii) and (iii)
above and the amount of their accrued benefits under this Plan which became
vested in 1993.
Effective with the first payment made under the Plan after December 31, 1990,
any amount taken into account as wages with respect to a Participant's Benefit
Commencement Date occurring after the applicable effective date specified in the
Social Security Amendment of 1983 by reason of this Section 8.3 shall not again
be treated as wages for FICA or FUTA purposes. However, no Participant shall be
entitled to a refund from the Company of any previously paid FICA or FUTA
contributions as a result of the application of this Section 8.3.
In order to compute the present value of a Participant's benefit under this Plan
for purposes of determining the amount of any FICA or FUTA contribution payable

Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph (b) of this Section 4.1, a
benefit under this Plan shall be paid in the form of the benefit paid
with respect to the Participant under his or her Base Plan. Any
election, designation of a beneficiary(ies) or contingent
annuitant(s), or revocation made prior to the Participant's "Benefit
Starting Date" and in effect under the Participant's Base Plan shall
be in effect under this Plan.
(b) LUMP SUM FORM OF PAYMENT.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph (a) of this Section 4.1, a
Participant, who is eligible for Early Retirement or who will be
eligible for Early Retirement within 13 months, may elect to receive
the present value of the benefits payable to him or her under this
Plan, as computed as of the last day of the month in which the earlier
of the date of the Participant's Early Retirement or Normal Retirement
occurs by utilizing the interest rate and mortality assumptions set
forth on Table I, which may be modified from time to time by the Board
of Directors of Honeywell Inc. (or, in the case of the Participant's
earlier death, the present value of such benefits so computed as of
the later of the last day of the month in which the Participant's
death or the Participant's earliest retirement eligibility under his
or her Base Plan occurs) in a lump sum cash payment. The
Participant's written election to receive a lump sum cash payment
shall be submitted on a form provided for that purpose by the Company,
and consented to by the Participant's Spouse in writing if the
Participant is married, and delivered to the Vice President, Corporate
Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, at least 13 months prior to
the Participant's Early Retirement or Normal Retirement. Such
Spouse's consent must acknowledge the effect of such election and be
witnessed by a notary public. If a Participant dies after making such
election and prior to his or her Early Retirement or Normal
Retirement, the lump sum cash payment
10
shall be made to the Participant's surviving Spouse in accordance with
Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, whichever may be applicable, or to the
Participant's surviving Children in accordance with Section 3.7.
4.2 TIME OF PAYMENTS. Benefit payments paid pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2,
respectively, shall begin (or, in the event that the Participant has complied
with Section 4.1(b), be paid) 30 days after the Participant's Normal Retirement
or Early Retirement, as the case may be. Payments pursuant to Section 3.4 of
the Plan shall commence 30 days after the later of (a) the last day of the
calendar month in which the Participant is determined to have become Permanently
and Totally Disabled under his or her Base Plan or (b) 6 months after his or her
last full day of active employment if he or she elects an immediate disability
benefit under his or her Base Plan; but if he or she elects a deferred
disability benefit under his or her Base Plan, payments shall commence (or, in
the event that the Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present
value of such benefits shall be paid) 30 days after his or her Early Retirement
or Normal Retirement. Payments pursuant to Sections 3.5 and 3.6 of this Plan
shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant has complied with Section
4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid) 30 days after the
Participant's death if he or she was eligible for Early Retirement or 30 days
after the date he or she would have attained his or her earliest retirement
eligibility under his or her Base Plan. Payments pursuant to Section 3.7 of
this Plan shall commence (or, in the event that the Participant has complied
with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid) 30 days
after the date of the Participant's death.
4.3 PAYMENT SUBSEQUENT TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(a) PAYMENT UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
Notwithstanding any Plan provision to the contrary, if within 3 years
subsequent to a Change in Control, a Participant's employment shall be
terminated by the Participant for "Good Reason" (as defined in the
Honeywell Key Employee Severance Plan) or by the Company other than
for "Cause" (as defined in the Honeywell Key Employee Severance Plan)
or Permanent and Total Disability, the present value of the benefits
payable pursuant to Section 3.3 (utilizing the interest rate and
mortality
11
assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be modified from time to
time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc.) shall be paid as a
lump sum cash payment to the Participant on the fifth business day
after such termination.
(b) PAYMENT UPON IMPOSITION OF FEDERAL OR STATE INCOME TAXES.
If subsequent to a Change in Control, any Participant is determined to
be subject to Federal or state income tax on any amount accrued on his
or her behalf under this Plan prior to the time of payment hereunder,
Federal or state taxes attributable to the amount determined to be so
taxable shall be distributed by the Plan to such Participant. An
amount accrued on his or her behalf under this Plan shall be
determined to be subject to Federal income tax upon the earliest of:
(i) a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue
Service (hereinafter referred to as "IRS") addressed to the
Participant which is not appealed to the courts;
(ii) a final determination by the United States Tax Court or any other
federal Court affirming any such determination by the IRS; or
(iii) an opinion by the Tax Counsel of the Company addressed to the
Company and the Trustee, that, by reason of Treasury Regulations,
amendments to the Code, published IRS rulings, court decisions or
other substantial precedent, amounts accrued on a Participants
behalf hereunder are subject to Federal or state income tax prior
to payment.
The Company shall undertake at its sole expense to defend any tax claims
described herein which are asserted by the IRS or by any state revenue
authority against any Participant subsequent to a Change in Control,
including attorney fees and costs of appeal, and shall have the sole
authority to determine whether or not to appeal any determination made by
the IRS, by any state
12
revenue authority or by a lower court. The Company also agrees to
reimburse any Participant for any interest or penalties in respect of
Federal or state tax claims hereunder upon receipt of documentation of
same. Any distribution from this Plan to the Participant under this
Section 4.3(b) shall be applied in an equitable manner to reduce Company
liabilities to such Participant under the Plan.
4.4 PAYMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE PARTICIPANT'S RETIREMENT. At any time before or
after a Change in Control, a Participant, after he or she has retired under the
provisions of the Base Plan on or after December 17, 1991, or the surviving
Spouse or beneficiary of the Participant, after the Participant's death
subsequent to such retirement on or after December 17, 1991, may elect to
receive the present value of his or her remaining benefits to which he or she is
entitled under this Plan in one lump sum cash payment at any time after the
Participant's date of retirement or death, respectively, as computed as of the
last day of the month in which the request is received by the Vice President,
Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, by utilizing the interest rate
and mortality assumptions set forth on Table I, which may be modified from time
to time by the Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc., and then reduced by a
penalty, which shall be forfeited to the Company which is equal to 10 percent of
the present value of any unpaid benefits. Payment of such benefits shall be
effected on the last day of the next month following the month in which the
request is received.
13
ARTICLE V - ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
5.1 PERSONNEL COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered by the Personnel
Committee of Honeywell's Board of Directors which shall have the authority to
determine Plan eligibility and the amount of Plan benefits to which a
Participant or beneficiary is entitled to receive, interpret the Plan, maintain
records and issue such regulations as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate. The interpretations of such Committee shall be final. The
Committee shall have absolute discretion in carrying out its responsibilities.
14
ARTICLE VI - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
6.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board of Directors of Honeywell may amend
or terminate the Plan at any time except in the event of a Change in Control as
defined in Section 3.3; provided, however, that no such amendment or termination
shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal or Early Retirement,
death or Permanent and Total Disability of a Participant with respect to the

ARTICLE VII - GENERAL CONDITIONS
7.1 NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE BENEFITS. The right to receive
benefits under this Plan may not be anticipated, alienated, sold, transferred,
assigned, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to any charge or legal process.
7.2 APPLICABLE LAW. All questions pertaining to the construction, validity and
effect of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the
United States and the State of Minnesota, other than its laws respecting choice
of law.
16
ARTICLE VIII - FUNDING
8.1 SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments hereunder shall be paid in cash from the
general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be
established since it is the intent to pay benefits as they become payable from
operating revenue. The Company may, however, in its sole discretion, establish
a separate reserve which may be held by it from which such benefits may be paid.
The foregoing shall not preclude the establishment by the Company of a "rabbi
trust" or the use of assets contributed to a "rabbi trust" to pay benefits under
the Plan.
8.2 STATUS OF PARTICIPANTS. A Participant shall have no right, title, or
interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make to aid it
in meeting its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no
action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create
a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and a
Participant or any beneficiary. To the extent that any person acquires a right
to receive payments from the Company, such right shall be no greater than the
right of an unsecured creditor.
8.3 FICA AND FUTA CONTRIBUTIONS ON PLAN BENEFITS. All amounts which have
accrued to a Participant under this Plan with respect to a Participant's service
with the Company after December 31, 1983, as provided in this Section 8.3 shall
be considered "wages" for purposes of the Federal Insurance Contribution Act
("FICA") and the Federal Unemployment Tax Act ("FUTA") as of the earliest of (i)
the date of the commencement of the Participant's Normal Retirement benefits,
Early Retirement benefits, Total and Permanent Disability benefits, or
commencement of Pre-retirement Surviving Spouse Benefits to the Participant's
spouse or Surviving Children's Benefits to his or her Child or Children
("Benefit Commencement Date"); (ii) the date in 1993 on which an active
Participant submitted an application for retirement benefits under the Base Plan
or resigned his or her employment with the Company, effective in 1994 but prior
to July 1, 1994; or (iii) the date in 1993 on which a specified vested accrued
benefit is determined with respect to any other Participant in this Plan who is
designated by the Vice President Corporate Human Resources and approved by the
Chief Executive Officer of the Company prior to December 31, 1993. Attached
hereto
17
as Table II is a list of the Participants described in subparts (ii) and (iii)
above and the amount of their accrued benefits under this Plan which became
vested in 1993, if any.
Effective with the first payment made under the Plan after December 31, 1990,
any amount taken into account as wages with respect to a Participant's Benefit
Commencement Date occurring after the applicable effective date specified in the
Social Security Amendment of 1983 by reason of this Section 8.3 shall not again
be treated as wages for FICA or FUTA purposes. However, no Participant shall be
entitled to a refund from the Company of any previously paid FICA or FUTA
contributions as a result of the application of this Section 8.3.
In order to compute the present value of a Participant's benefit under this Plan
for purposes of determining the amount of any FICA or FUTA contribution payable
with respect to such benefit, such present value shall be determined in
accordance with Table I.

ARTICLE IV - PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
4.1 FORM OF PAYMENT.
(a) NORMAL FORM OF PAYMENT.
Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph (b) of this Section
4.1, a benefit under this Plan shall be paid in the form of the
benefit paid with respect to the Participant under his or her
Base Plan. Any election, designation of a beneficiary(ies) or
contingent annuitant(s), or revocation made prior to the
Participant's "Benefit Starting Date" and in effect under the
Participant's Base Plan shall be in effect under this Plan.
(b) LUMP SUM FORM OF PAYMENT.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph (a) of this Section
4.1, a Participant, who is eligible for Early Retirement or who
will be eligible for Early Retirement within 13 months, may elect
to receive the present value of the benefits payable to him or
her under this Plan, as computed as of the last day of the month
in which the earlier of the dates of the Participant's Early
Retirement, or Normal Retirement, occurs by utilizing the
interest rate and mortality assumptions set forth in Table I,
which may be modified from time to time by the Board of Directors
of Honeywell Inc. (or, in the case of the Participant's earlier
death, the present value of such benefits so computed as of the
later of the last day of the month in which the Participant's
death or the Participant's earliest retirement eligibility under
his or her Base Plan occurs) in a lump sum cash payment. The
Participant's written election to receive a lump sum cash payment
shall be submitted on a form provided for that purpose by the
Company and consented to by the Participant's Spouse in writing
if the Participant is married and delivered to the Vice
President, Corporate Compensation and Benefits of Honeywell, at
least 13 months prior to the Participant's Early Retirement or
Normal Retirement. Such Spouse's consent must acknowledge the
effect of such election and be witnessed by a notary public. If
a Participant dies after making such election and prior to his or
her Early Retirement or Normal Retirement, the lump sum cash
payment
15
shall be made to the Participant's surviving Spouse in accordance
with Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, whichever may be applicable, or to
the Participant's surviving Children in accordance with Section
3.7.
4.2 TIME OF PAYMENTS. Benefit payments paid pursuant to Sections 3.1 or
3.2, respectively, shall begin (or, in the event that the Participant has
complied with Section 43.1(b), be paid) 30 days after the Participant's
Normal Retirement or Early Retirement, as the case may be. Payments
pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Plan shall commence 30 days after the later
of (a) the last day of the calendar month in which the Participant is
determined to be Permanently and Totally Disabled under his or her Base
Plan or (b) 6 months after his or her last full day of active employment if
he or she elects an immediate disability benefit under his or her Base
Plan; but if he or she elects a deferred disability benefit under his or
her Base Plan, payments shall commence (or, in the event that the
Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such
benefits shall be paid) 30 days after his or her Early Retirement or Normal
Retirement. Payments pursuant to Section 3.5 and 3.6 of this Plan, shall
commence (or, in the event that the Participant has complied with Section
4.1(b), the present value of such benefits shall be paid) 30 days after the
Participant's death if he or she was eligible for Early Retirement or 30
days after the date he or she would have attained his or her earliest
retirement eligibility under his or her Base Plan. Payments pursuant to
Section 3.7 of this Plan shall commence (or, in the event that the
Participant has complied with Section 4.1(b), the present value of such
benefits shall be paid) 30 days after the date of the Participant's death.
4.3 PAYMENT SUBSEQUENT TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(a) PAYMENT UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Notwithstanding any Plan
provision to the contrary, if within 3 years subsequent to a
Change in Control, a Participant's employment shall be terminated
by the Participant for "Good Reason" (as defined in the Honeywell
Key Employee Severance Plan) or by the Company other than for
"Cause" (as defined in the Honeywell Key Employee Severance Plan)
or Permanent and Total Disability, the present value of the
benefits payable pursuant to Section 3.3, (utilizing the interest
rate and mortality assumptions set forth in Table
16
I, which may be modified from time to time by the Board of
Directors of Honeywell Inc.) shall be paid as a lump sum cash
payment to the Participant on the fifth day after such termination.
(b) PAYMENT UPON IMPOSITION OF FEDERAL OR STATE TAXES. If subsequent
to a Change in Control, any Participant is determined to be
subject to Federal or state income tax on any amount accrued on
his or her behalf under this Plan prior to the time of payment
hereunder, Federal or state taxes attributable to the amount
determined to be so taxable shall be distributed by the Plan to
such Participant. An amount accrued on his or her behalf under
this Plan shall be determined to be subject to Federal income tax
upon the earliest of:
(i) a final determination by the United States Internal Revenue
Service (hereinafter referred to as "IRS") addressed to the
Participant which is not appealed to the courts;
(ii) a final determination by the United States Tax Court or any
other Federal Court affirming any such determination by the
IRS; or
(iii) an opinion by the Tax Counsel of the Company, addressed to
the Company and the Trustee, that, by reason of Treasury
Regulations, amendments to the Code, published IRS rulings,
court decisions or other substantial precedent, amounts
accrued on a Participant's behalf hereunder are subject to
Federal or state income tax prior to payment.
The Company shall undertake at its sole expense to defend any tax
claims described herein which are asserted by the IRS or by any state
revenue authority against any Participant subsequent to a Change in
Control, including attorney fees and costs of appeal, and shall have
the sole authority to determine whether or not to appeal any
determination made by the IRS, by any state revenue authority or by a
lower court. The Company also agrees to reimburse
17
any Participant for any interest or penalties in respect of Federal or
state tax claims hereunder upon receipt of documentation of same. Any
distributions from this Plan to a Participant under this Section 4.3(b)
shall be applied in an equitable manner to reduce Company liabilities to
such Participant under the Plans.
4.4 PAYMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE PARTICIPANT'S RETIREMENT. At any time
before a Change in Control, a Participant, after he or she has retired
under the provisions of the Base Plan on or after December 17, 1991, or the
surviving Spouse or beneficiary of the Participant, after the Participant's
death subsequent to such retirement on or after December 17, 1991, may
elect to receive the present value of such benefits or remaining benefits
to which he or she is entitled to under this Plan in one lump sum cash
payment at any time after the Participant's date of retirement or death,
respectively, as computed as of the last day of the month in which the
request is received by the Vice President, Corporate Compensation and
Benefits of Honeywell, by utilizing the interest rate and mortality
assumptions set forth in Table I, which may be modified from time to time
by the Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc., and then reduced by a penalty,
which shall be forfeited to the Company which is equal to 10 percent of the
present value of any unpaid benefits. Payment of such benefits shall be
effected on the last day of the next month following the month in which the
request is received.
18
ARTICLE V - ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
5.1 PERSONNEL COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered by the Personnel
Committee of Honeywell's Board of Directors which shall have the authority
to determine Plan eligibility and the amount of Plan benefits to which a
Participant or beneficiary is entitled to receive, interpret the Plan,
maintain records and issue such regulations as it shall from time to time
deem appropriate. The interpretations of such Committee shall be final.
19
ARTICLE VI - AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
6.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board of Directors of Honeywell Inc.
may amend or terminate the Plan at any time except in the event of a Change
in Control as defined in Section 3.3, provided, however, that no such
amendment or termination shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the
Normal or Early Retirement, death or Permanent and Total Disability of a
Participant with respect to the Participant's employment by the Company
prior to the date of such amendment or termination unless such benefit is
or becomes payable under another plan or practice adopted by such Board of
Directors. In the event of a Change in Control as defined in Section 3.3,
the Board of Directors may not amend or terminate the Plan in any manner
that shall adversely affect a benefit payable on the Normal or Early
Retirement, death or Permanent and Total Disability of, or any available
optional form of payment to, a Participant for a period of 3 years from
such date of the Change in Control. In the event of termination of the
Plan, any benefits which have accrued hereunder shall be paid in the form
and at the time determined under Section 3.3(a) of the Plan.
20
ARTICLE VII - GENERAL CONDITIONS
7.1 NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE BENEFITS. The right to
receive benefits under the Plan may not be anticipated, alienated, sold,
transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to any charge or
legal process.
7.2 APPLICABLE LAW. All questions pertaining to the construction,
validity and effect of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the
laws of the United States and the State of Minnesota, other than its laws
respecting choice of law.
21
ARTICLE VIII - FUNDING
8.1 SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments hereunder shall be paid in cash from
the general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be
established since it is the intent to pay benefits as they become payable
from operating revenue. The Company may, however, in its sole discretion,
establish a separate reserve which may be held by it from which such
benefits may be paid. The foregoing shall not preclude the establishment
by the Company of a "rabbi trust" or the use of assets contributed to a
"rabbi trust" to pay benefits under the Plan.
8.2 STATUS OF PARTICIPANTS. A Participant shall have no right, title, or
interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make to
aid it in meeting its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this
Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be
construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship,
between the Company and a Participant or any beneficiary. To the extent
that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company, such
right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor.
8.3 FICA AND FUTA CONTRIBUTIONS ON PLAN BENEFITS. All amounts which have
accrued to a Participant under this Plan with respect to a Participant's
service with the Company after December 31, 1983, as provided in this
Section 7.3 shall be considered "wages" for purposes of the Federal
Insurance Contribution Act ("FICA") and the Federal Unemployment Tax Act
("FUTA") as of the earliest of (i) the date of the commencement of the
Participant's Normal Retirement benefits, Early Retirement benefits, Total
and Permanent Disability benefits, or commencement of Pre-retirement
Surviving Spouse Benefits to the Participant's spouse or Surviving
Children's Benefit to his or her Child or Children ("Benefit Commencement
Date"); (ii) the date in 1993 on which an active Participant submitted an
application for retirement benefits under the Base Plan or resigned his or
her employment with the Company, effective in 1994 but prior to July 1,
1994; or (iii) the date in 1993 on which a specified vested accrued benefit
is determined with respect to any other Participant in this Plan who is
designated by the Vice President Corporate Human Resources and approved by
the Chief Executive Officer of the Company prior to December 31, 1993.
Attached hereto
22
as Table II is a list of the Participants described in subparts (ii) and
(iii) above and the amount of their accrued benefits under this Plan which
became vested in 1993, if any.
Effective with the first payment made under the Plan after December 31,
1990, any amount taken into account as wages with respect to a
Participant's Benefit Commencement Date occurring after the applicable
effective date specified in the Social Security Amendment of 1983 by reason
of this Section 7.3 shall not again be treated as wages for FICA or FUTA
purposes. However, no Participant shall be entitled to a refund from the
Company of any previously paid FICA or FUTA contributions as a result of
the application of this Section 7.3.
In order to compute the present value of a Participant's benefit under this
Plan for purposes of determining the amount of any FICA or FUTA
contribution payable with respect to such benefit, such present value shall
be determined in accordance with Table I.
23

EXHIBIT 10III(M)
Exhibit (10)(iii)(m)
________________, 1994
Name
Address
City
Dear ________:
Honeywell Inc. (the "Corporation") considers it essential to the best
interests of its stockholders to foster the continuous employment of key
management personnel. In this connection, the Board of Directors (the "Board")
recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the
possibility of a change in control of the Corporation may exist and that such
possibility, and the uncertainty and questions which it may raise among
management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel
to the detriment of the Corporation and its stockholders.
The Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to
reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the
Corporation's management, including you, to their assigned duties without
distraction in the face of potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the
possibility of a change in control of the Corporation. In that regard, the
Board has determined that this letter agreement (this "Agreement") will better
serve the above-stated objective than the letter agreement entered into between
you and the Corporation dated ________________ (the "Prior Agreement"), which is
hereby terminated.
In order to induce you to remain in the employ of the Corporation, the
Corporation agrees that you shall receive the severance benefits set forth in
this Agreement in the event your employment with the Corporation is terminated
under the circumstances described below subsequent to a "change in control of
the Corporation" (as defined in Section 2).
1. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall replace the Prior Agreement,
shall commence as of the date hereof, and shall continue in effect through
December 31, 1995; provided, however, that commencing on January 1, 1996 and
each January 1 thereafter, the term
________________, 1994
Page 2
of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for one additional year
unless, not later than October 1 of the preceding year, the Corporation shall
have given notice that it does not wish to extend this Agreement; and provided,
further, that if a change in control of the Corporation, as defined in Section
2, shall have occurred during the original or extended term of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall continue in effect for a period of not less than thirty-six
(36) months beyond the month in which such change in control of the Corporation
occurred. In no event, however, shall the term of this Agreement extend beyond
the end of the calendar month in which your 65th birthday occurs.
2. CHANGE IN CONTROL. No benefits shall be payable hereunder unless there
shall have been a change in control of the Corporation, as set forth below. For
purposes of this Agreement, a "change in control of the Corporation" shall be
deemed to have occurred if:
(i) any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (other than the
Corporation, any subsidiary of the Corporation, any "person" (as hereinabove
defined) acting on behalf of the Corporation as underwriter pursuant to an
offering who is temporarily holding securities in connection with such offering,
any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan
of the Corporation, or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the
stockholders of the Corporation in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of stock of the Corporation), is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
securities of the Corporation representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the
combined voting power of the Corporation's then outstanding securities;
(ii) during any period of not more than two consecutive years (not
including any period prior to the execution of this Agreement), individuals who
at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors of the
Corporation (the "Board"), and any new director (other than a director
designated by a "person" (as hereinabove defined) who has entered into an
agreement with the Corporation to effect a transaction described in clause (i),
(iii) or (iv) of this Section) whose election by the Board or nomination for
election by the Corporation's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least
two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors
at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was
previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority
thereof;
(iii) the stockholders of the Corporation approve a merger or consolidation
of the Corporation with any other corporation, other than (1) a merger or
consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Corporation
outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the
surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of
the voting securities of the Corporation or such surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation or (2) a merger or consolidation
effected to implement a recapitalization of the Corporation (or similar
transaction) in which no "person" (as hereinabove defined) acquires more
_________________, 1994
Page 3
than thirty percent (30%) of the combined voting power of the Corporation's then
outstanding securities; or
(iv) the stockholders of the Corporation approve a plan of complete
liquidation of the Corporation or an agreement for the sale or disposition by
the Corporation of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets (or any
transaction having a similar effect).
3. TERMINATION FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(i) GENERAL. If any of the events described in Section 2 constituting a
change in control of the Corporation shall have occurred, you shall be entitled
to such benefits provided in Section 4 which may be applicable, upon the
subsequent termination of your employment during the term of this Agreement,
unless such termination is (a) because of your death or Disability, (b) by the
Corporation for Cause, or (c) by you other than for Good Reason. In the event
your employment with the Corporation is terminated for any reason prior to the
occurrence of a change in control of the Corporation and subsequently a change
in control of the Corporation shall have occurred, you shall not be entitled to
any benefits hereunder.
(ii) DISABILITY. If, as a result of your incapacity due to physical or
mental illness, you shall have been absent from the full-time performance of
your duties with the Corporation for six (6) consecutive months, and within
thirty (30) days after written notice of termination is given, you shall not
have returned to the full-time performance of your duties, for purposes of this
Agreement your employment may be terminated for "Disability."
(iii) CAUSE. Termination by the Corporation of your employment for "Cause"
shall mean termination (a) upon the willful and continued failure by you to
substantially perform your duties with the Corporation (other than any such
failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical or mental illness or any
such actual or anticipated failure after the issuance of a Notice of Termination
(as defined in Subsection 3(v)) by you for Good Reason (as defined in Subsection
3(iv))), within ten (10) days after a written demand for substantial performance
is delivered to you by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the
manner in which the Board believes that you have not substantially performed
your duties, or (b) the willful engaging by you in conduct which is clearly and
materially injurious to the Corporation, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes
of this Subsection, no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be deemed
"willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by you in bad faith and without
reasonable belief that your action or omission was in or not opposed to the best
interest of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall not be
deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been
delivered to you a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of
not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Board at a
meeting of the Board (after reasonable notice to you and an opportunity for you,
together with your counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the
good faith opinion of the Board you were guilty of conduct set forth above in
this Subsection and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.
_________________, 1994

prior to the Date of Termination (as defined in Subsection 3(vi)) specified in
the Notice of Termination (as defined in Subsection 3(v)) given in respect
thereof:
(a) the assignment to you of any duties inconsistent with the status
of the position in the Corporation that you held immediately prior to the
change in control of the Corporation or an adverse alteration in the nature
or status of your responsibilities or in the quality or amount of office
accommodations or assistance provided to you, from those in effect
immediately prior to such change in control of the Corporation;
(b) a reduction by the Corporation in your annual base salary as in
effect on the date immediately prior to the change in control of the
Corporation or as the same may be increased from time to time thereafter;
(c) the Corporation's moving you to be based more than 50 miles from
the Corporation's offices at which you are principally employed immediately
prior to the date of the change in control of the Corporation except for
required travel on the Corporation's business to an extent substantially
consistent with your business travel obligations immediately prior to such
change in control of the Corporation;
(d) the failure by the Corporation to pay to you any portion of your
current compensation or compensation under any deferred compensation
program of the Corporation within seven (7) days of the date such
compensation is due:
(e) the failure by the Corporation to continue in effect any
compensation or benefit plan or perquisites in which you participate

Program, Stock and Incentive Plan, Stock Recognition Plan, Supplementary
Retirement Plan, Financial Planning Program, Corporate Club Membership
Plan, Honeywell Executive Automobile Plan or Personal Automobile Plan, any
supplementary executive retirement plans of the Corporation you may be
covered under, or any successor plans (collectively, the "Compensation
Plans"), unless an equitable arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute
or alternative plan) has been made with respect to such plan, or the
failure by the Corporation to continue your participation therein (or in
such substitute or alternative plan) on a basis not materially less
favorable, both in terms of the amount of benefits provided and the level
of your participation relative to other participants, than existed at the
time of the change in control of the Corporation;
_________________, 1994
Page 5
(f) the failure by the Corporation to continue to provide you with
benefits substantially similar to those enjoyed by you under any of the
Corporation's life insurance, medical, dental, accident or disability plans
in which you were participating at the time of the change in control of the
Corporation, the taking of any action by the Corporation which would
directly or indirectly materially reduce any of such benefits, or the
failure by the Corporation to provide you with the number of paid vacation
days to which you are entitled on the basis of your years of service with
the Corporation in accordance with the Corporation's normal vacation policy
in effect at the time of the change in control of the Corporation;
(g) the failure of the Corporation to obtain a satisfactory agreement
from any successor to assume and agree to perform this Agreement, as
contemplated in Section 5 hereof; or
(h) any purported termination of your employment that is not effected
pursuant to a Notice of Termination satisfying the requirements of
Subsection (v) hereof (and, if applicable, the requirements of Subsection
(iii) hereof), which purported termination shall not be effective for
purposes of this Agreement.
Your right to terminate your employment pursuant to this Subsection shall not be
affected by your incapacity due to physical or mental illness. Your continued
employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect
to, any circumstance constituting Good Reason hereunder.
(v) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any purported termination of your employment
by the Corporation or by you shall be communicated by written Notice of
Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 6. "Notice of
Termination" shall mean a notice that shall indicate the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail
the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of your
employment under the provision so indicated.
(vi) DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" shall mean (a) if your
employment is terminated for Disability, thirty (30) days after Notice of
Termination is given (provided that you shall not have returned to the full-time
performance of your duties during such thirty (30)-day period); (b) if your
employment is terminated pursuant to Subsection (iii) or (iv) hereof, the date
specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a termination for
Cause shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of

be less than fifteen (15) nor more than sixty (60) days from the date such
Notice of Termination is given, (c) if your employment is terminated by you for
any other reason (other than for Good Reason or for Disability) the date
specified in the Notice of Termination shall not be less than thirty (30) days
from the date such Notice of Termination is
_________________, 1994
Page 6
given; and (d) if your employment is terminated by the Corporation for any other
reason (other than for Cause or for Disability), the date specified in the
Notice of Termination, which shall be the last day of a layoff period specified
in paragraph (e) of Subsection 4(iv); provided, however, that if within fifteen
(15) days after any Notice of Termination is given, or, if later, prior to the
Date of Termination (as determined without regard to this proviso), the party
receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute
exists concerning the termination, then the Date of Termination (other than the
Date of Termination where clause (d) of this Subsection (vi) is applicable)
shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual
written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final
judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not
appealable or with respect to which the time for appeal therefrom has expired
and no appeal has been perfected); and provided, further, that the Date of
Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is
given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of
such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any
such dispute, the Corporation will continue to pay you your full compensation in
effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given and continue you as
a participant in all Compensation Plans, life insurance, medical, dental,
accident or disability plans and any similar plans in which you were
participating when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given, until the
dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Subsection. Amounts paid
under this Subsection are in addition to all other amounts due under this
Agreement, and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under
this Agreement and shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by you as the
result of employment by another employer.
4. COMPENSATION DURING DISABILITY OR UPON TERMINATION. Following a change
in control of the Corporation, you shall be entitled to the following during a
period of Disability, upon termination of your employment, or upon the cessation
of your active service during a layoff period, as the case may be, provided that
such period, termination, or cessation of your active service occurs during the
term of this Agreement:
(i) During any period that you fail to perform your full-time duties with
the Corporation as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, you
shall continue to receive your base salary at the rate in effect at the
commencement of any such period, together with all compensation payable to you
under the Corporation's disability plan or program or other similar plan during
such period, until this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Subsection 3(ii)
hereof. Thereafter, or in the event your employment shall be terminated by
reason of your death, your benefits shall be determined under the Corporation's
retirement, insurance and other Compensation Plans then in effect in accordance
with the terms of such programs.
(ii) If your employment shall be terminated by the Corporation for Cause or
by you other than for Good Reason or Disability, the Corporation shall pay you
your full base salary through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at
the time Notice of Termination is given, plus all other amounts or benefits to
which you are entitled under any Compensation Plan of the
_________________, 1994
Page 7
Corporation then in effect, and the Corporation shall have no further
obligations to you under this Agreement.
(iii) If your employment by the Corporation shall be terminated by you for
Good Reason, then you shall be entitled to the following:
(a) the Corporation shall pay to you your full base salary through the
Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination
is given, or in effect on the date immediately preceding the date of the
change in control of the Corporation, whichever is higher, no later than
the fifth day following the Date of Termination, plus all other amounts to
which you are entitled under any Compensation Plan, at the time such
payments are due;
(b) in lieu of any further salary payments to you for periods
subsequent to the Date of Termination, the Corporation shall pay as
severance pay to you, at the time specified in Subsection (vi), a lump sum
severance payment equal to three times the sum of your (1) annual salary as
in effect as of your Date of Termination or in effect on the date
immediately preceding the date of the change in control of the Corporation,
whichever is higher, and (2) "on-plan" bonus under the Corporate Executive
Compensation Plan or the average of the annual bonuses paid to you (without
regard to any prorata adjustment thereof for any portion of a year) during
the three year period immediately preceding the date of the change in
control of the Corporation, whichever is higher;
(c) your rights under the Compensation Plans shall be governed by the
terms of those respective plans;
(d) the Corporation shall pay to you all legal fees and expenses
incurred by you as a result of such termination (including all such fees
and expenses, if any, reasonably incurred in contesting or disputing by
arbitration or otherwise, any such termination or in seeking to obtain or
enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or in connection
with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the
application of section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), to any payment or benefit provided hereunder; and
(e) for a three year period after such termination, the Corporation
shall arrange to provide you with benefits substantially similar to those
which you were receiving or entitled to receive under the Corporation's
life, disability, accident and group health insurance plans or any similar
plans in which you were participating immediately prior to the Date of
Termination ("Welfare Plan Benefits") at a cost to you which is no greater
than that cost to you in effect at the Date of Termination; provided,
however, that to the extent any such coverage is prohibited by any judicial
or legislative authority, the Corporation shall make alternative
arrangements to provide you with Welfare Plan
_________________, 1994
Page 8
Benefits, including, but not limited to, providing you with a payment in an
amount equal to your cost of purchasing the Welfare Plan Benefits.
Benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this paragraph (e) shall
be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received on your
behalf during the three year period following your termination. You hereby
agree to report to the Corporation any such comparable benefits actually
received by you.
(iv) If your employment by the Corporation shall be terminated by the
Corporation other than for Cause or Disability, then you shall be entitled to
the following:
(a) the Corporation shall pay to you your full base salary through the
date the Notice of Termination is given at the rate in effect at the time
Notice of Termination is given or on the date immediately preceding the
date of the change in control of the Corporation, whichever is higher, no
later than the fifth day following the date of the Notice of Termination,
plus all other amounts to which you are entitled under any Compensation
Plan, at the time such payments are due;
(b) in lieu of any further salary payments to you for periods
subsequent to the date the Notice of Termination is given, the Corporation
shall pay as severance pay to you, at the time specified in Subsection
(vi), a lump sum severance payment equal to three times the sum of your (1)
annual salary as in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given or on
the date immediately preceding the date of the change in control of the
Corporation, whichever is higher, and (2) "on-plan" bonus under the
Corporate Executive Compensation Plan or the average of the annual bonuses
paid to you (without regard to any prorata adjustment thereof for any
portion of a year) during the three year period immediately preceding the
date of the change in control of the Corporation, whichever is higher;
(c) your rights under the Compensation Plans shall be governed by the
terms of those respective plans which are applicable to a laid off
employee;
(d) the Corporation shall pay to you all legal fees and expenses
incurred by you as a result of such cessation of active service and
placement on layoff or termination (including all such fees and expenses,
if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such layoff or termination
or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this
Agreement or in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent
attributable to the application of Section 4999 of the Code, to any payment
or benefit provided hereunder);
(e) you shall be placed on layoff status without recall rights for all
purposes in accordance with the Corporation's policies in effect
immediately prior to the date of the change in control of the Corporation,
receive continued accrual of credited service for
__________________, 1994
Page 9
benefits under the provisions of the Honeywell Retirement Benefit Plan in
effect immediately prior to the change in control of the Corporation during
such layoff period, and retention of your employment status for the greater
of (1) two years from the date of the cessation of your active service if
your years of credited service for benefits under such Plan are less than
two years or (2) the number of your years of credited service for benefits
under such Plan up to a maximum of five years; and
(f) for a three year period after your cessation of active service,
the Corporation shall arrange to provide you with benefits substantially
similar to those which you were receiving or entitled to receive under the
Corporation's life, disability, accident and group health insurance plans
or any similar plans in which you were participating immediately prior to
the date the Notice of Termination was given ("Welfare Plan Benefits")
including but not limited to providing you with a payment in an amount
equal to your cost of purchasing the Welfare Plan Benefits at a cost to you
which is no greater than that cost to you in effect at the time the Notice
of Termination is given; provided, however, that to the extent any such
coverage is prohibited by any judicial or legislative authority, the
Corporation shall make alternative arrangements to provide you with Welfare
Plan Benefits, including but not limited to providing you with a payment in
an amount equal to your cost of purchasing the Welfare Plan Benefits.
Benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this paragraph (f) shall
be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by you
during the three year period following your cessation of active service.
You hereby agree to report to the Corporation any such comparable benefits
actually received by you.
(v) If any payments under this Agreement or any other payments or benefits
received or to be received by you in connection with a change in control of the
Corporation, your termination of employment, or your cessation of active service
(whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement
or agreement with the Corporation, or any person affiliated with the
Corporation) (the "Severance Payments"), will be subject to the tax (the "Excise
Tax") imposed by section 4999 of the Code (or any similar tax that may hereafter
be imposed), the Corporation shall pay at the time specified below, an
additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment") such that the net amount retained by
you, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the Severance Payments and any
federal, state and local income tax and Excise Tax upon the payment provided for
by this Subsection 4(v), shall be equal to the Severance Payments. For purposes
of determining whether any of the Severance Payments will be subject to the
Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax, (a) all Severance Payments shall
be treated as "parachute payments" within the meaning of section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code, and all "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of section
280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the opinion
of tax counsel selected by the Corporation's independent auditors and acceptable
to you such Severance Payments (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute
payments, or such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent
reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of
section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in excess of the base
_________________, 1994
Page 10
amount within the meaning of section 280G(b)(3) of the Code, or are otherwise
not subject to the Excise Tax, (b) the amount of the Severance Payments which
shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of
(1) the total amount of the Severance Payments or (2) the amount of excess
parachute payments within the meaning of section 280G(b)(1) (after applying
clause (a), above), and (c) the value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred
payment or benefit shall be determined by the Corporation's independent auditors
in accordance with the principles of section 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.
For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, you shall be
deemed to pay federal income taxes at your highest marginal rate of federal
income taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made
and state and local income taxes at your highest marginal rate of taxation in
the state and locality of your residence on the Date of Termination (or earlier
cessation of your active service), net of the maximum reduction in federal
income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local
taxes. In the event that the Excise Tax is subsequently determined to be less
than the amount taken into account hereunder at the time of termination of your
employment (or earlier cessation of your active service), you shall repay to the
Corporation at the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is
finally determined the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such
reduction (plus the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to the Excise
Tax and federal and state and local income tax imposed on the Gross-Up Payment
being repaid by you if such repayment results in a reduction in Excise Tax
and/or a federal and state and local income tax deduction) plus interest on the
amount of such repayment from the date the Gross-Up Payment was initially made
to the date of repayment at the rate provided in section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code (the "Applicable Rate"). In the event that the Excise Tax is determined to
exceed the amount taken into account hereunder at the time of the termination of
your employment or earlier cessation of your active service (including by reason
of any payment the existence or amount of which cannot be determined at the time
of the Gross-Up Payment), the Corporation shall make an additional Gross-Up
Payment in respect of such excess (plus any interest payable with respect to
such excess) at the time that the amount of such excess is finally determined.
Any payment to be made to you under this paragraph shall be payable within five
(5) days of your Date of Termination (or within five (5) days of your earlier
cessation of active service).
(vi) The payments provided for in Subsection (iii)(b) and Subsection
(iv)(b), shall be made not later than the fifth day following the Date of
Termination or the date of your cessation of active service, whichever is
earlier; provided, however, that if the amounts of such payments cannot be
finally determined on or before such day, the Corporation shall pay to you on
such day an estimate, as determined in good faith by the Corporation, of the
minimum amount of such payments and shall pay the remainder of such payments
(together with interest from the date that the estimated payments were made to
the date the remainder of such payments is made at the Applicable Rate) as soon
as the amount thereof can be determined but in no event later than the thirtieth
day after the Date of Termination or date of cessation of your active service,
whichever may be earlier. In the event that the amount of the estimated
payments exceeds the amount subsequently determined to have been due, such
excess shall constitute a loan by the Corporation
_________________, 1994
Page 11
to you, payable on the fifth day after demand by the Corporation (together with
interest from the date that the estimated payments were made to the date of
repayment at the Applicable Rate).
(vii) Except as required in Subsection (iii)(e) and Subsection (iv)(f)
hereof, you shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided
for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the
amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Section 4 be reduced by
any compensation earned by you as the result of employment by another employer,
by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by you
to the Corporation, or otherwise; provided, however, that if during the three
year period subsequent to your Date of Termination or earlier cessation of your
active service, you directly compete with the Corporation by making use of trade
secrets or other proprietary knowledge you obtained while employed by the
Corporation in violation of the commitment to protect such proprietary or trade
secret information set forth in the "Honeywell Employment Agreement" attached to
your "Application for Employment" with the Corporation, all income earned as a
result of such use of information shall be remitted to the Corporation to the
extent payments were made to you under this Section 4.
5. SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT. (i) The Corporation will require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Corporation to (A) expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the
same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to
perform it if no such succession had taken place and (B) agree to notify you of
the assumption of the Agreement within 10 days of such assumption. Failure of
the Corporation to obtain any such assumption and agreement prior to the
effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and
shall entitle you to compensation from the Corporation in the same amount and on
the same terms to which you would be entitled hereunder if you terminate your
employment for Good Reason following a change in control of the Corporation,
except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any
such succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As
used in this Agreement, "Corporation" shall mean the Corporation and any
successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to
perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.
(ii) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
you and your personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators,
successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If you should die while
any amount would still be payable to you hereunder had you continued to live,
all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement to your devisee, legatee or other designee or,
if there is no such designee, to your estate.
6. NOTICE. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other
communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and ,
addressed to your address set forth on the first page of this Agreement,
provided that all notices to the Corporation shall be directed to the

date of mailing; (ii) by Federal Express or similar overnight courier and shall
be deemed received one (1) business day after delivery to Federal Express or
similar overnight courier; or (iii) by personal service and shall be deemed
received on the same day as service.
7. MISCELLANEOUS. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived
or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in
writing and signed by you and such officer of the Corporation as may be
authorized by the Board. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any
breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or
provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed
a waiver of similar of dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise,
express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by
either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement. The validity,
interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed
by the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to its conflicts of law
principles. All references to sections of the Code shall be deemed also to
refer to any successor provisions to such sections. Any payments provided for
hereunder shall be paid net of any applicable withholding required under
federal, state or local law, except for any withholding that may be required
under Section 4999 of the Code. The obligations of the Corporation under this
Agreement shall survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement.

Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision
of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
9. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument.
10. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in
connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding
arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators in the city of
Minneapolis or, at your option, in the city where you are principally employed
immediately prior to the date of a change in control of the Corporation, in
accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in
effect; provided, however, that you shall be entitled to seek specific
performance of your rights under Subsection 3(vi) during the pendency of any
dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement.
Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having
jurisdiction.

is hereby terminated and canceled. Any other prior agreements, arrangements or
understandings between you and the Corporation (other than the Prior Agreement)
remain binding and in full force and effect consistent with the terms and
conditions thereof and shall not be affected by this Agreement.

Dear ________:
Honeywell Inc. (the "Corporation") considers it essential to the best
interests of its stockholders to foster the continuous employment of key
management personnel. In this connection, the Board of Directors (the "Board")
recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the
possibility of a change in control of the Corporation may exist and that such
possibility, and the uncertainty and questions which it may raise among
management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel
to the detriment of the Corporation and its stockholders.
The Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to
reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the
Corporation's management, including you, to their assigned duties without
distraction in the face of potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the
possibility of a change in control of the Corporation. In that regard, the
Board has determined that this letter agreement (this "Agreement") will better
serve the above-stated objective than the letter agreement entered into between
you and the Corporation dated ________________ (the "Prior Agreement"), which is
hereby terminated.
In order to induce you to remain in the employ of the Corporation, the
Corporation agrees that you shall receive the severance benefits set forth in
this Agreement in the event your employment with the Corporation is terminated
under the circumstances described below subsequent to a "change in control of
the Corporation" (as defined in Section 2).
1. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall replace the Prior Agreement,
shall commence as of the date hereof, and shall continue in effect through
December 31, 1995; provided, however, that commencing on January 1, 1996 and
each January 1 thereafter, the term
________________, 1994
Page 2
of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for one additional year
unless, not later than October 1 of the preceding year, the Corporation shall
have given notice that it does not wish to extend this Agreement; and provided,
further, that if a change in control of the Corporation, as defined in Section
2, shall have occurred during the original or extended term of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall continue in effect for a period of not less than thirty-six
(36) months beyond the month in which such change in control of the Corporation
occurred. In no event, however, shall the term of this Agreement extend beyond
the end of the calendar month in which your 65th birthday occurs.
2. CHANGE IN CONTROL. No benefits shall be payable hereunder unless there
shall have been a change in control of the Corporation, as set forth below. For
purposes of this Agreement, a "change in control of the Corporation" shall be
deemed to have occurred if:
(i) any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (other than the
Corporation, any subsidiary of the Corporation, any "person" (as hereinabove
defined) acting on behalf of the Corporation as underwriter pursuant to an
offering who is temporarily holding securities in connection with such offering,
any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan
of the Corporation, or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the
stockholders of the Corporation in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of stock of the Corporation), is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
securities of the Corporation representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the
combined voting power of the Corporation's then outstanding securities;
(ii) during any period of not more than two consecutive years (not
including any period prior to the execution of this Agreement), individuals who
at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors of the
Corporation (the "Board"), and any new director (other than a director
designated by a "person" (as hereinabove defined) who has entered into an
agreement with the Corporation to effect a transaction described in clause (i),
(iii) or (iv) of this Section) whose election by the Board or nomination for
election by the Corporation's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least
two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors
at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was
previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority
thereof;
(iii) the stockholders of the Corporation approve a merger or consolidation
of the Corporation with any other corporation, other than (1) a merger or
consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Corporation
outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the
surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of
the voting securities of the Corporation or such surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation or (2) a merger or consolidation
effected to implement a recapitalization of the Corporation (or similar
transaction) in which no "person" (as hereinabove defined) acquires more
________________, 1994
Page 3
than thirty percent (30%) of the combined voting power of the Corporation's then
outstanding securities; or
(iv) the stockholders of the Corporation approve a plan of complete
liquidation of the Corporation or an agreement for the sale or disposition by
the Corporation of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets (or any
transaction having a similar effect).
3. TERMINATION FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL.
(i) GENERAL. If any of the events described in Section 2 constituting a
change in control of the Corporation shall have occurred, you shall be entitled
to such benefits provided in Section 4 which may be applicable, upon the
subsequent termination of your employment during the term of this Agreement,
unless such termination is (a) because of your death or Disability, (b) by the
Corporation for Cause, or (c) by you other than for Good Reason. In the event
your employment with the Corporation is terminated for any reason prior to the
occurrence of a change in control of the Corporation and subsequently a change
in control of the Corporation shall have occurred, you shall not be entitled to
any benefits hereunder.
(ii) DISABILITY. If, as a result of your incapacity due to physical or
mental illness, you shall have been absent from the full-time performance of
your duties with the Corporation for six (6) consecutive months, and within
thirty (30) days after written notice of termination is given, you shall not
have returned to the full-time performance of your duties, for purposes of this
Agreement your employment may be terminated for "Disability."
(iii) CAUSE. Termination by the Corporation of your employment for "Cause"
shall mean termination (a) upon the willful and continued failure by you to
substantially perform your duties with the Corporation (other than any such
failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical or mental illness or any
such actual or anticipated failure after the issuance of a Notice of Termination
(as defined in Subsection 3(v)) by you for Good Reason (as defined in Subsection
3(iv))), within ten (10) days after a written demand for substantial performance
is delivered to you by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the
manner in which the Board believes that you have not substantially performed
your duties, or (b) the willful engaging by you in conduct which is clearly and
materially injurious to the Corporation, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes
of this Subsection, no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be deemed
"willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by you in bad faith and without
reasonable belief that your action or omission was in or not opposed to the best
interest of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall not be
deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been
delivered to you a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of
not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the Board at a
meeting of the Board (after reasonable notice to you and an opportunity for you,
together with your counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the
good faith opinion of the Board you were guilty of conduct set forth above in
this Subsection and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

or alternative plan) has been made with respect to such plan, or the
failure by the Corporation to continue your participation therein (or in
such substitute or alternative plan) on a basis not materially less

Page 5
(f) the failure by the Corporation to continue to provide you with
benefits substantially similar to those enjoyed by you under any of the
Corporation's life insurance, medical, dental, accident or disability plans
in which you were participating at the time of the change in control of the
Corporation, the taking of any action by the Corporation which would
directly or indirectly materially reduce any of such benefits, or the

(iii) hereof), which purported termination shall not be effective for
purposes of this Agreement.
Your right to terminate your employment pursuant to this Subsection shall not be
affected by your incapacity due to physical or mental illness. Your continued
employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect
to, any circumstance constituting Good Reason hereunder.
(v) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any purported termination of your employment
by the Corporation or by you shall be communicated by written Notice of
Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 6. "Notice of

the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of your
employment under the provision so indicated.

Page 6
given; and (d) if your employment is terminated by the Corporation for any other
reason (other than for Cause or for Disability), the date specified in the
Notice of Termination, which shall be the last day of a layoff period specified
in paragraph (e) of Subsection 4(iv); provided, however, that if within fifteen
(15) days after any Notice of Termination is given, or, if later, prior to the
Date of Termination (as determined without regard to this proviso), the party
receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute
exists concerning the termination, then the Date of Termination (other than the
Date of Termination where clause (d) of this Subsection (vi) is applicable)
shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual
written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final
judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not
appealable or with respect to which the time for appeal therefrom has expired
and no appeal has been perfected); and provided, further, that the Date of
Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is
given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of
such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any
such dispute, the Corporation will continue to pay you your full compensation in
effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given and continue you as
a participant in all Compensation Plans, life insurance, medical, dental,
accident or disability plans and any similar plans in which you were
participating when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given, until the
dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Subsection. Amounts paid
under this Subsection are in addition to all other amounts due under this
Agreement, and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under
this Agreement and shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by you as the
result of employment by another employer.
4. COMPENSATION DURING DISABILITY OR UPON TERMINATION. Following a change
in control of the Corporation, you shall be entitled to the following during a
period of Disability, upon termination of your employment, or upon the cessation
of your active service during a layoff period, as the case may be, provided that
such period, termination, or cessation of your active service occurs during the
term of this Agreement:
(i) During any period that you fail to perform your full-time duties with
the Corporation as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, you
shall continue to receive your base salary at the rate in effect at the
commencement of any such period, together with all compensation payable to you
under the Corporation's disability plan or program or other similar plan during
such period, until this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Subsection 3(ii)
hereof. Thereafter, or in the event your employment shall be terminated by
reason of your death, your benefits shall be determined under the Corporation's
retirement, insurance and other Compensation Plans then in effect in accordance
with the terms of such programs.
(ii) If your employment shall be terminated by the Corporation for Cause or
by you other than for Good Reason or Disability, the Corporation shall pay you

Good Reason, then you shall be entitled to the following:

which you are entitled under any Compensation Plan, at the time such
payments are due;

severance payment equal to two times the sum of your (1) annual salary as
in effect as of your Date of Termination or in effect on the date
immediately preceding the date of the change in control of the Corporation,
whichever is higher, and (2) "on-plan" bonus under the Corporate Executive
Compensation Plan or the average of the annual bonuses paid to you (without
regard to any prorata adjustment thereof for any portion of a year) during
the three year period immediately preceding the date of the change in
control of the Corporation, whichever is higher;
(c) your rights under the Compensation Plans shall be governed by the
terms of those respective plans;
(d) the Corporation shall pay to you all legal fees and expenses
incurred by you as a result of such termination (including all such fees
and expenses, if any, reasonably incurred in contesting or disputing by
arbitration or otherwise, any such termination or in seeking to obtain or
enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or in connection
with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the
application of section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), to any payment or benefit provided hereunder; and
(e) for a two year period after such termination, the Corporation
shall arrange to provide you with benefits substantially similar to those
which you were receiving or entitled to receive under the Corporation's
life, disability, accident and group health insurance plans or any similar
plans in which you were participating immediately prior to the Date of
Termination ("Welfare Plan Benefits") at a cost to you which is no greater
than that cost to you in effect at the Date of Termination; provided,
however, that to the extent any such coverage is prohibited by any judicial
or legislative authority, the Corporation shall make alternative
arrangements to provide you with Welfare Plan
________________, 1994
Page 8
Benefits, including, but not limited to, providing you with a payment in an
amount equal to your cost of purchasing the Welfare Plan Benefits.
Benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this paragraph (e) shall
be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received on your
behalf during the two year period following your termination. You hereby
agree to report to the Corporation any such comparable benefits actually
received by you.
(iv) If your employment by the Corporation shall be terminated by the
Corporation other than for Cause or Disability, then you shall be entitled to
the following:
(a) the Corporation shall pay to you your full base salary through the
date the Notice of Termination is given at the rate in effect at the time
Notice of Termination is given or on the date immediately preceding the

later than the fifth day following the date of the Notice of Termination,
plus all other amounts to which you are entitled under any Compensation
Plan, at the time such payments are due;
(b) in lieu of any further salary payments to you for periods
subsequent to the date the Notice of Termination is given, the Corporation
shall pay as severance pay to you, at the time specified in Subsection
(vi), a lump sum severance payment equal to two times the sum of your (1)
annual salary as in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given or on
the date immediately preceding the date of the change in control of the
Corporation, whichever is higher, and (2) "on-plan" bonus under the
Corporate Executive Compensation Plan or the average of the annual bonuses
paid to you (without regard to any prorata adjustment thereof for any
portion of a year) during the three year period immediately preceding the

(c) your rights under the Compensation Plans shall be governed by the
terms of those respective plans which are applicable to a laid off
employee;
(d) the Corporation shall pay to you all legal fees and expenses
incurred by you as a result of such cessation of active service and
placement on layoff or termination (including all such fees and expenses,
if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such layoff or termination
or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this
Agreement or in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent
attributable to the application of Section 4999 of the Code, to any payment
or benefit provided hereunder);
(e) you shall be placed on layoff status without recall rights for all
purposes in accordance with the Corporation's policies in effect
immediately prior to the date of the change in control of the Corporation,
receive continued accrual of credited service for
________________, 1994
Page 9
benefits under the provisions of the Honeywell Retirement Benefit Plan in
effect immediately prior to the change in control of the Corporation during
such layoff period, and retention of your employment status for the greater
of (1) two years from the date of the cessation of your active service if
your years of credited service for benefits under such Plan are less than
two years or (2) the number of your years of credited service for benefits
under such Plan up to a maximum of five years; and
(f) for a two year period after your cessation of active service, the
Corporation shall arrange to provide you with benefits substantially
similar to those which you were receiving or entitled to receive under the
Corporation's life, disability, accident and group health insurance plans
or any similar plans in which you were participating immediately prior to
the date the Notice of Termination was given ("Welfare Plan Benefits")
including but not limited to providing you with a payment in an amount
equal to your cost of purchasing the Welfare Plan Benefits at a cost to you
which is no greater than that cost to you in effect at the time the Notice
of Termination is given; provided, however, that to the extent any such
coverage is prohibited by any judicial or legislative authority, the
Corporation shall make alternative arrangements to provide you with Welfare
Plan Benefits, including but not limited to providing you with a payment in
an amount equal to your cost of purchasing the Welfare Plan Benefits.
Benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this paragraph (f) shall
be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by you
during the two year period following your cessation of active service. You
hereby agree to report to the Corporation any such comparable benefits
actually received by you.
(v) If any payments under this Agreement or any other payments or benefits
received or to be received by you in connection with a change in control of the
Corporation, your termination of employment, or your cessation of active service
(whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement
or agreement with the Corporation, or any person affiliated with the
Corporation) (the "Severance Payments"), will be subject to the tax (the "Excise
Tax") imposed by section 4999 of the Code (or any similar tax that may hereafter
be imposed), the Corporation shall pay at the time specified below, an
additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment") such that the net amount retained by
you, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the Severance Payments and any
federal, state and local income tax and Excise Tax upon the payment provided for
by this Subsection 4(v), shall be equal to the Severance Payments. For purposes
of determining whether any of the Severance Payments will be subject to the
Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax, (a) all Severance Payments shall
be treated as "parachute payments" within the meaning of section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code, and all "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of section
280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the opinion
of tax counsel selected by the Corporation's independent auditors and acceptable
to you such Severance Payments (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute
payments, or such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent
reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of
section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in excess of the base
________________, 1994
Page 10
amount within the meaning of section 280G(b)(3) of the Code, or are otherwise
not subject to the Excise Tax, (b) the amount of the Severance Payments which
shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of
(1) the total amount of the Severance Payments or (2) the amount of excess
parachute payments within the meaning of section 280G(b)(1) (after applying
clause (a), above), and (c) the value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred
payment or benefit shall be determined by the Corporation's independent auditors
in accordance with the principles of section 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.
For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, you shall be
deemed to pay federal income taxes at your highest marginal rate of federal
income taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made
and state and local income taxes at your highest marginal rate of taxation in
the state and locality of your residence on the Date of Termination (or earlier
cessation of your active service), net of the maximum reduction in federal
income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local
taxes. In the event that the Excise Tax is subsequently determined to be less
than the amount taken into account hereunder at the time of termination of your
employment (or earlier cessation of your active service), you shall repay to the
Corporation at the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is
finally determined the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such
reduction (plus the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to the Excise
Tax and federal and state and local income tax imposed on the Gross-Up Payment
being repaid by you if such repayment results in a reduction in Excise Tax
and/or a federal and state and local income tax deduction) plus interest on the
amount of such repayment from the date the Gross-Up Payment was initially made
to the date of repayment at the rate provided in section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code (the "Applicable Rate"). In the event that the Excise Tax is determined to
exceed the amount taken into account hereunder at the time of the termination of
your employment or earlier cessation of your active service (including by reason
of any payment the existence or amount of which cannot be determined at the time
of the Gross-Up Payment), the Corporation shall make an additional Gross-Up
Payment in respect of such excess (plus any interest payable with respect to
such excess) at the time that the amount of such excess is finally determined.
Any payment to be made to you under this paragraph shall be payable within five
(5) days of your Date of Termination (or within five (5) days of your earlier
cessation of active service).
(vi) The payments provided for in Subsection (iii)(b) and Subsection
(iv)(b), shall be made not later than the fifth day following the Date of
Termination or the date of your cessation of active service, whichever is
earlier; provided, however, that if the amounts of such payments cannot be
finally determined on or before such day, the Corporation shall pay to you on
such day an estimate, as determined in good faith by the Corporation, of the
minimum amount of such payments and shall pay the remainder of such payments
(together with interest from the date that the estimated payments were made to
the date the remainder of such payments is made at the Applicable Rate) as soon
as the amount thereof can be determined but in no event later than the thirtieth
day after the Date of Termination or date of cessation of your active service,
whichever may be earlier. In the event that the amount of the estimated
payments exceeds the amount subsequently determined to have been due, such
excess shall constitute a loan by the Corporation
________________, 1994
Page 11
to you, payable on the fifth day after demand by the Corporation (together with
interest from the date that the estimated payments were made to the date of
repayment at the Applicable Rate).
(vii) Except as required in Subsection (iii)(e) and Subsection (iv)(f)
hereof, you shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided
for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the
amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Section 4 be reduced by
any compensation earned by you as the result of employment by another employer,
by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by you
to the Corporation, or otherwise; provided, however, that if during the two year
period subsequent to your Date of Termination or earlier cessation of your
active service, you directly compete with the Corporation by making use of trade
secrets or other proprietary knowledge you obtained while employed by the
Corporation in violation of the commitment to protect such proprietary or trade
secret information set forth in the "Honeywell Employment Agreement" attached to
your "Application for Employment" with the Corporation, all income earned as a
result of such use of information shall be remitted to the Corporation to the
extent payments were made to you under this Section 4.
5. SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT. (i) The Corporation will require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Corporation to (A) expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the
same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to
perform it if no such succession had taken place and (B) agree to notify you of
the assumption of the Agreement within 10 days of such assumption. Failure of
the Corporation to obtain any such assumption and agreement prior to the
effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and
shall entitle you to compensation from the Corporation in the same amount and on
the same terms to which you would be entitled hereunder if you terminate your
employment for Good Reason following a change in control of the Corporation,
except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any
such succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As
used in this Agreement, "Corporation" shall mean the Corporation and any
successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to
perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.
(ii) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
you and your personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators,
successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If you should die while
any amount would still be payable to you hereunder had you continued to live,
all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement to your devisee, legatee or other designee or,
if there is no such designee, to your estate.
6. NOTICE. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other
communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and ,

7. MISCELLANEOUS. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived
or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in
writing and signed by you and such officer of the Corporation as may be
authorized by the Board. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any
breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or
provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed
a waiver of similar of dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise,
express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by
either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement. The validity,

under Section 4999 of the Code. The obligations of the Corporation under this
Agreement shall survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement.

of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
9. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument.
10. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in

accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in
effect; provided, however, that you shall be entitled to seek specific
performance of your rights under Subsection 3(vi) during the pendency of any
dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement.
Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having
jurisdiction.

Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders, whether by appointment or election as
a director (or by change in status from a full-time employee), shall receive an
Annual Retainer prorated for the balance of that Director Year.
7. PAYMENTS
CASH. If selected, cash payment for the Annual Retainer shall be paid
as soon as practicable after the beginning of a Director Year, and cash payment
for Meeting Fees shall be paid as soon as practicable after a meeting.
SHARES. (a) If selected, the value of shares of Common Stock payable
in lieu of the Annual Retainer, or the elected percentage thereof, shall equal
110% of the amount of the Annual Retainer, and the number thereof shall be
determined based on the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 9 hereunder) on
the date of the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
(b) If selected, the value of shares of Common Stock payable
in lieu of the Meeting Fees occurring within a calendar quarter shall equal 110%
of the amount of such Meetings Fees and the number thereof shall be determined
by taking 110% of the total cash amount of Meeting Fees for the quarterly period
and dividing the amount by the Fair Market Value determined as of the last
trading day for such quarter.
(c) All shares of Common Stock issued to a Participant in
lieu of cash payments for the Annual Retainer or Meeting Fees shall be subject
to the restriction that they may not be sold or transferred until the earliest
to occur of the following:
(i) five years shall lapse from the date the applicable
shares are credited to the Participant's account (the
"Restriction Period");
(ii) the Participant's death or disability;
(iii) the Participant, after being nominated to the Board, is
not elected by the shareholders in an election for the
Board;
(iv) the Board determines that the Participant will not be
nominated for election to the Board;
-2-
(v) the Participant's service on the Board terminates
because of his or her resignation at the request of the
Nominating Committee of the Board or his or her removal
by action of the Company's stockholders;
(vi) the Participant's service on the Board terminates
because the Participant has taken a position with a
governmental agency in public service that does not
permit membership on the board of directors of a
publicly-held corporation; or
(vii) the occurrence of a Change in Control, as set forth in
Section 14.
All shares of Common Stock subject to the foregoing restrictions are herein
referred to as "Restricted Shares".
(d) In the event restrictions lapse, as provided in sections
7(c)(i)-(vii) above, a certificate for the applicable shares, free and clear of
restrictions, will be delivered to the Director as soon as practicable
thereafter. If the Participant's service on the Board terminates prior to the
end of the Restriction Period for any reason other than those identified in
sections 7(c)(ii)-(vii) above, the Director shall immediately forfeit the shares
to the Company.
DEFERRED FEES. (a) If selected by the Participant, deferred fees
shall be credited to a deferred compensation account for each Participant. The
amount of fees credited to a Participant's account shall equal the deferred cash
amount for the Annual Retainer and/or Meeting Fees. Interest shall be credited
to each account annually, as of December 31, and at the time of distribution of
the entire balance of such an account, on the daily average balance of such
account for such year or portion thereof. For account balances through December
31, 1990, the rate of interest for such year shall be the Company's return on
investment for such year (or, in the case of a deferral made other than as of
December 31, for the prior year), as calculated for management information
purposes pursuant to the Company's applicable policy or practice then in effect.
Commencing January 1, 1991, and, in any event, following retirement from the
Board, the applicable interest rate is to be calculated at the Company's average
five-year borrowing rate.
(b) A Participant's deferred compensation account shall be paid to him
or her in annual installments over a period of ten years, beginning with an
initial installment to be paid on or about June 1 of the year following his or
her retirement from the Board; provided, however, that the Chief Executive
Officer shall have the discretion to direct the Company to make payments at
different dates (but not before retirement by the Participant), over a longer or
shorter period of time, or in a lump sum, all as the Chairman may direct from
time to time and subject to change from time to time. For this purpose,
-3-
retirement is defined as termination from service on the Board due to the first
to occur of the following events: (i) retirement in compliance with the Board's
retirement policy then in effect;(ii) retirement due to not being nominated for
re-election to the Board; (iii) retirement due to not being re-elected by
stockholders; (iv) disability or death; or (v) retirement due to the occurrence
of a Change in Control, as set forth in Section 14.
(c) In the event of a Participant's death, payments shall be made to
the beneficiary designated by the Participant, or in the absence of an executed
beneficiary form, to the person legally entitled thereto, as designated under
his or her will, or to such heirs as determined under the laws of intestacy for
the state of his or her domicile. Deferred amounts shall be nontransferable and
shall not be assignable, alienable, salable or otherwise transferable by the
Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or
pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order.
VOLUNTARY MID-YEAR TERMINATION. In the event a Participant
voluntarily resigns from the Board during a Director Year, the Participant shall
return to the Company a cash payment covering the prorated portion of the Annual
Retainer for the balance of that Director Year. No return of any portion of the
Annual Retainer shall be required in the event a Participant leaves the Board as
the result of retirement, incapacity or death.
8. SHARE CERTIFICATES, VOTING AND OTHER RIGHTS. The certificates for
shares of Common Stock issued under Section 7 may be registered in the name of
the Participant, or in the name of the Participant and one other individual as
joint tenants, and shall be held by the Company during the Restriction Period as
set forth in Section 7(c)(i). Any dividends or distributions, payable in cash
or in kind, with respect to the Common Stock, shall be paid to the Participant.
All Common Stock issued hereunder shall be fully paid and non-assessable and the
Participant shall have all voting rights with respect thereto. The Company
shall pay all original issue taxes with respect to the issue of shares and all
other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by Company in connection therewith.
9. FAIR MARKET VALUE. "Fair Market Value" means, as of any valuation
date, the median of the high and low trading price of Honeywell Inc. Common
Stock, par value $1.50 per share, as quoted in the New York Stock Exchange
Composite Transactions, on such date as reported in the Wall Street Journal (or,
if there is no reported sale on such date, on the last preceding date on which
any reported sale occurred).
10. FRACTIONS OF SHARES. The Company shall not issue fractions of shares.
Whenever under the terms of the Plan, a fractional share would otherwise be
required to be issued, the Participant shall be paid in cash for such fractional
share; or for Participants electing to receive Meeting Fees in stock, the unpaid
amount shall be added to the fees for the next quarterly period.
11. GENERAL RESTRICTIONS. The issuance of Common Stock or the delivery of
certificates for such shares to Participants under the Plan shall be subject to
the
-4-
requirement that, if at any time the General Counsel or Corporate Secretary of
the Company shall reasonably determine, in his or her discretion, that the
listing, registration or qualification of such Common Stock upon any securities
exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any
governmental body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection
with, the issuance or payment or delivery shall not take place unless such
listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been
effected or obtained free of any conditions not reasonably acceptable to the
General Counsel or Corporate Secretary.
12. SHARES AVAILABLE. Shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan
shall be taken from authorized but unissued or treasury shares of the Company,
as shall from time to time be necessary for issuance pursuant to the Plan.
13. CHANGE IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. In the event of any change in the
Honeywell Stock by reason of any stock dividend, split, combination of shares,
exchange of shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase Common Stock at a
price below its fair market value, reclassification, recapitalization, merger,
consolidation or other change in capitalization, appropriate adjustment shall be
made by the Company in the number and kind of shares subject to the Plan and any
other relevant provisions of the Plan, whose determination shall be binding and
conclusive on all persons.
14. CHANGE IN CONTROL. A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have
occurred if any one or more of the following events has occurred:
(a) Any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of
the Exchange Act (other than the Company, any trustee or other fiduciary holding
securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any corporation
owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company in
substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company),
is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the
Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company,
representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the combined voting power of the
Company's then outstanding securities; or
(b) During any period of not more than two consecutive years (not
including any period prior to the effective date of this Plan), individuals who
at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director (other
than a Director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with
the Company to effect a transaction described in paragraph's (a), (b) or (c) of
this Section 14) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the
Company's shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of
the Directors then still in office who either were Directors at the beginning of
the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so
approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof;
(c) The shareholders approve a merger or consolidation of the Company
with any other person, other than (i) a merger or consolidation which would
result in the
-5-
voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto
continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted
into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of
the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such
surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or
(ii) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the
Company (or similar transaction) in which no "person" (as hereinabove defined)
acquires more than thirty percent (30%) of the combined voting power of the
Company's then outstanding securities; or
(d) The shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete
liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the
Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (or any transaction
having a similar effect).
15. INCOME TAX PROVISIONS. No income will be recognized by a Participant
at the time of the deferral of Annual Retainer and/or Meeting Fees. Upon
payment to a Participant with respect to amounts previously deferred, the
Participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the sum of the
cash received from a Participant's deferred compensation account. No income
will be recognized by a Participant at the time of issuance of Restricted
Shares, unless an election under Internal Revenue Code Section 83(b) is made by
the Participant.
16. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by the Chief Executive
Officer, who shall have full authority to construe and interpret the Plan, to
establish, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to
take all such actions and make all such determinations in connection with the
Plan as he or she may deem necessary or desirable. The Chief Executive Officer
may from time to time make such amendments to the Plan as he or she may deem
proper, necessary, and in the best interests of the Company.
17. RIGHTS OF DIRECTORS. Nothing in the plan shall confer upon any
Participant any right to serve on the Board for any period of time or to
continue his or her current or any other rate of compensation.
18. GOVERNING LAW. The Plan and all actions taken thereunder shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota.
