THE AMP CONNECTION
a daily update for Pennsylvania legislators

SEPTEMBER 22, 1998


            AMP TAKES ITS CASE TO LEGISLATORS AND GOVERNOR RIDGE
      PROPOSES AMENDMENT TO TIGHTEN PENNSYLVANIA'S ANTI-TAKEOVER LAWS


AMP Incorporated turned to the state Capitol this week, asking legislators
to help assure that the company has a fair chance to show that it can
protect Pennsylvania jobs and investments while meeting Wall Street's
expectations.

As part of its effort to fight the hostile takeover attempt by
AlliedSignal, AMP is asking the General Assembly and Governor Ridge to
tighten Pennsylvania's anti-takeover provisions. The proposed amendment
would eliminate a shortcut AlliedSignal is likely to try in its attempt to
acquire AMP "on the cheap." AMP's proposed change would provide that for a
period of 18 months following an unsolicited attempt to acquire control of
a Pennsylvania corporation, shareholder action could be taken only at a
duly convened meeting and not by written consent without a meeting. Nothing
in this change prevents a hostile takeover.

"This is one of the steps we're taking to make sure that we have a fair
opportunity to show that our profit improvement plan will work," said Bob
Ripp, AMP's new chairman and chief executive officer.

Ripp met with about 20 central Pennsylvania House members yesterday, and
the company will continue to brief lawmakers on its proposal. Ripp said he
believes the proposal, which is being sent to other House members this
week, is in keeping with the General Assembly's intent in passing the
original anti-takeover act.

"Clearly, the original intent was to make certain that companies have the
time to take actions and make decisions that are in everyone's best
interests, and our proposal simply eliminates one of the shortcuts that can
be used to circumvent that protection," Ripp said.

"Our message to legislators is that AMP has been a major Pennsylvania
employer and taxpayer, and an outstanding corporate citizen, for more than
50 years. AlliedSignal's hostile attempt to take over AMP is incompatible
with what we are and what we have meant to Pennsylvania."

AMP and certain other persons named below may be deemed to be participants
in the solicitation of revocations of consents in response to
AlliedSignal's consent solicitation. The participants in this solicitation
may include the directors of AMP (Ralph D. DeNunzio, Barbara H. Franklin,
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
and Takeo Shiina); the following executive officers of AMP: Robert Ripp
(Chairman and Chief Executive Officer), William J. Hudson (Vice Chairman),
James E. Marley (former Chairman), William S. Urkiel (Corporate Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer), Herbert M. Cole (Senior Vice
President for Operations), Juergen W. Gromer (Senior Vice President, Global
Industry Businesses), Richard P. Clark (Divisional Vice President, Global
Wireless Products Group), Thomas DiClemente (Corporate Vice President and
President, Europe, Middle East, Africa), Rudolf Gassner (Corporate Vice
President and President, Global Personal Computer Division), Charles W.
Goonrey (Corporate Vice President and General Legal Counsel), John E.
Gurski (Corporate Vice President and President, Global Value-Added
Operations and President, Global Operations Division), David F. Henschel
(Corporate Secretary), John H. Kegel (Corporate Vice President,
Asia/Pacific), Mark E. Lang (Corporate Controller), Philippe Lemaitre
(Corporate Vice President and Chief Technology Officer), Joseph C.
Overbaugh (Corporate Treasurer), Nazario Proietto (Corporate Vice President
and President, Global Consumer, Industrial and Power Technology Division);
and the following other members of management and employees of AMP: Merrill
A. Yohe, Jr. (Vice President, Public Affairs), Richard Skaare (Director,
Corporate Communication), Douglas Wilburne (Director, Investor Relations),
Suzanne Yenchko (Director, State Government Relations), Mary Rakoczy
(Manager, Shareholder Services), Dorothy J. Hiller (Assistant Manager,
Shareholder Services), Melissa E. Witsil (Communications Assistant) and
Janine M. Porr (Executive Secretary). As of the date of this communication,
none of 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 Exchange 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 11, 1998, DLJ held no shares
of AMP common stock for its own account and CSFB had a net long position of
103,966 shares of AMP common stock.
