                  AMP FILES MOTION FOR PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT
                              AGAINST ALLIEDSIGNAL
  
 HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania (September 11, 1998) - AMP Incorporated (NYSE:
 AMP) announced today that it has filed a motion for summary judgment on the
 Second Claim for Relief of its complaint against AlliedSignal Inc. (NYSE:
 ALD) and its wholly owned subsidiary, PMA Acquisition Corporation.  An 
 early hearing has been requested. 
  
 As filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
 Pennsylvania on August 24, 1998, the Second Claim for Relief is based 
 upon the fact that AlliedSignal's attempt to pack the AMP Board with 
 AlliedSignal's directors and senior management would create pervasive, 
 irreconcilable conflicts of interest.  These AlliedSignal nominees have 
 an undivided duty of loyalty to AlliedSignal that would conflict with 
 their ability to fulfill their fiduciary duties to AMP under 
 Pennsylvania law.  AMP's motion seeks an order declaring that the 
 AlliedSignal consent solicitation plan is in violation of 
 Pennsylvania law. 
  
 Headquartered in Harrisburg, PA, AMP is the world's leading manufacturer of
 electrical, electronic, fiber-optic and wireless interconnection devices
 and systems.  The Company has 48,300 employees in 53 countries serving
 customers in the automotive, computer, communications, consumer, industrial
 and power industries.  AMP sales reached $5.75 billion in 1997. 
  
                                  # # # 
  
 AMP and certain other persons named below may be deemed to be participants
 in the solicitation of revocations of consents in response to
 AlliedSignals consent solicitation. The participants in this solicitation

 Joseph M. Hixon III, William J. Hudson, Jr., Joseph M. Magliochetti, Harold
 A. McInnes, Jerome J. Meyer, John C. Morley, Robert Ripp, Paul G. Schloemer

 the foregoing participants individually beneficially own in excess of 1%
 of AMP's common stock or in the aggregate in excess of 2% of AMP's common
 stock. 
  
 AMP has retained Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation ("CSFB") and
 Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation ("DLJ") to act as its
 financial advisors in connection with the AlliedSignal Offer, for which
 CSFB and DLJ will receive customary fees, as well as reimbursement of
 reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. In addition, AMP has agreed to indemnify
 CSFB, DLJ and certain related persons against certain liabilities,
 including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws, arising
 out of their engagement. CSFB and DLJ are investment banking firms that
 provide a full range of financial services for institutional and individual
 clients. Neither CSFB nor DLJ admits that it or any of its directors,
 officers or employees is a "participant" as defined in Schedule 14A
 promulgated under the Securities Ex-change Act of 1934, as amended, in the
 solicitation, or that Schedule 14A requires the disclosure of certain
 information concerning either CSFB or DLJ.  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 connection with DLJ's role as financial advisor to AMP, DLJ and
 the following investment banking employees of DLJ may communicate in
 person, by telephone or otherwise with a limited number of institutions,
 brokers or other persons who are stockholders of AMP: Douglas V. Brown and
 Herald L. Ritch.  In the normal course of its business, each of CSFB and
 DLJ 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, DLJ or the associates of either of them 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 September 1, 1998,
 DLJ held no shares of AMP common stock for its own account and CSFB had a
 net long position of 118,566 shares of AMP common stock.
