statement or in any other subsequently filed document which also is incorporated
or deemed to be incorporated by reference modifies or supersedes such statement.
Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
The audited financial statements and schedule incorporated by reference in
this registration statement have been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP,
independent public accountants, as indicated in their report with respect
thereto, and are incorporated herein by reference in reliance upon the authority
of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing in giving said report.
Reference is made to the report dated January 27, 1999 included in ITT
Industries, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1998, which includes an explanatory paragraph with respect to the change in the
method of accounting for reengineering costs incurred in connection with the
development of and installation of software for internal use in 1997 as
discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements.
Robert W. Beicke, Esq., whose legal opinion with respect to the securities
registered hereunder is filed as Exhibit 5 hereto, is an employee of the Company
and participates in certain of its stock benefit plans.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Sections 23-1-37-8 and 23-1-37-13 of the Indiana Business Corporation Law
("IBCL") provide that the Company may indemnify any individual made a party to a
proceeding (including a proceeding by or in the right of the Company) because
the individual is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company
against liability incurred in the proceeding if the individual acted in good
faith and reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in the individual's
official capacity with the Company, that the individual's conduct was in the
Company's best interests and (ii) in all other cases, that the individual's
conduct was at least not opposed to the Company's best interests. In the case of
any criminal proceeding, the individual must have had either reasonable cause to
believe the conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that it was
unlawful. The Company's By-laws provide for the above indemnification of
directors and officers. Reference is made to the Company's By-laws filed with
the Company's Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1998. In addition, Sections 23-1-37-9 and 23-1-37-13 of the IBCL provide that
the Company, unless limited by its Articles of Incorporation, must indemnify a
director or officer who was wholly successful
II-1
<PAGE> 3
in the defense of any proceeding to which the director or officer was a party
because the director or officer is or was a director or officer of the Company
against reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer in connection
with the proceeding. The Company's Articles of Incorporation do not limit the
indemnification provided by the IBCL. Reference is made to the Company's
Restated Articles of Incorporation filed with the Company's Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended June 30, 1997.
The Company also has provided liability insurance for the directors and
officers for certain losses arising from claims or charges made against them
while acting in their capacities as directors or officers and has entered into
an indemnification agreement with each of its non-employee directors. Under its
form of indemnification agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify its directors
against all expenses, liabilities or losses incurred by the directors in their
capacity as such: (i) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; (ii) as
provided in the By-laws of the Company as in effect on the date of such
agreement; and (iii) in the event the Company does not maintain the
aforementioned insurance or comparable coverage, to the full extent provided in
the applicable policies as in effect on the date of such agreement (the
Company's obligations described in (ii) and (iii) being subject to certain
exceptions).
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
Not Applicable.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS.
See Exhibit Index elsewhere herein.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement;
(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof; and
(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual
II-2
<PAGE> 4
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by a registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Dear Sirs:
I am familiar with the ITT Industries 1996 Restricted Stock Plan for
Non-Employee Directors (the "Plan") of ITT Industries, Inc., an Indiana
corporation ("ITT Industries"), under which 100,000 shares of ITT Industries
common stock, par value $1 per share, will be made available initially for
issuance (the "Shares"). I have acted as counsel to ITT Industries in connection
with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), of a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") with respect to the
registration under the Act of the Shares and 100,000 Series A Participating
Cumulative Preferred Stock Purchase Rights (the "Rights") which are appurtenant
to, and trade with, the Shares. I have examined such records, documents and
proceedings as I have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinion
expressed herein.
Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the Shares, when issued
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan as set forth in the Registration
Statement and ITT Industries' policies relating thereto, and any conditions or
restrictions relating thereto shall have been satisfied, will be legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable. When the Rights are issued in accordance with the
terms of the Plan and the Rights Agreement between ITT Industries and The Bank
of New York, as Rights Agent, the Rights will be duly and validly issued.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ ROBERT W. BEICKE
