                       WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT AMP 
  
 "My more than five-year relationship with AMP and its excellent products,
 has convinced me that AMP can and will overcome the present obstacles.  An
 independent AMP is far more desirable than a division of a company with an
 unproven track record in the world of interconnects.  BULLY for AMP!" - Sr.
 Procurement Specialist, personal telecommunications customer, August 21,
 1998 
  
 "From my perspective, it isn't about corporate stockholders and corporate
 takeovers; its about families.  We have a home-grown Fortune 500
 corporation in central Pennsylvania, and I think that is in the best
 situation for the employees and families." -  Pennsylvania State
 Representative Mark McNaughton, Republican - Susquehanna Twp., The Patriot
 News, August 22, 1998 
  
 "Wall Street has growing doubts that AlliedSignal, an aerospace and auto
 parts maker, can fight through Pennsylvania's tough anti-takeover laws and
 ultimately snare AMP.  And even if AlliedSignal overcomes that formidable
 legal hurdle, analysts say, the deal may prove to be too costly." - By Bill
 Meyers, USA Today, August 26, 1998

 AMP has retained Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation ("CSFB") to act as
 its financial advisor in connection with the AlliedSignal Offer, for which
 CSFB will receive customary fees, as well as reimbursement of reasonable
 out-of-pocket expenses.  In addition, AMP has agreed to indemnify CSFB and
 certain related persons against certain liabilities, including certain
 liabilities under the federal securities laws, arising out of its
 engagement.  CSFB is an investment banking firm that provides a full range
 of financial services for institutional and individual clients.  CSFB does
 not admit that it or any of its directors, officers or employees is a
 "participant" as defined in Schedule 14A promulgated under the Securities
 Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in the solicitation, or that Schedule 14A
 requires the disclosure of certain information concerning CSFB.  In
 connection with CSFB's role as financial advisor to AMP, CSFB and the
 following investment banking employees of CSFB may communicate in person,
 by telephone or otherwise with a limited number of institutions, brokers or
 other persons who are stockholders of AMP: Alan Howard, Steven Koch, Scott
 Lindsay, and Lawrence Hamdan.  In the normal course of its business, CSFB
 regularly buys and sells securities issued by AMP for its own account and
 for the accounts of its customers, which transactions may result in CSFB
 and its associates having a net "long" or net "short" position in AMP
 securities, or option contracts or other derivatives in or relating to such
 securities.  As of August 19, 1998, CSFB had a net long position of 124,466
 shares of AMP common stock.
