               INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 3.  INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

     The Company is the successor to ITT Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("ITT"). The following documents filed by the Company and, in the case of item
(c), ITT, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") (File
No. 1-5627) are hereby incorporated by reference in this Prospectus:

          (a) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999;

          (b) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
     2000;

          (c) Proxy Statement for the Special Meeting of Shareholders on
     September 21, 1995 (Filed with the Commission on August 28, 1995); and

          (d) Form 8-A dated December 20, 1995.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission
pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the
filing with the Commission of a post-effective amendment which indicates that
all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then
remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement and to be a part thereof from the date of filing of such
documents.

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 24, 2000 included in ITT
Industries, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31,
1999, which includes an explanatory paragraph with respect to the change in the
method of accounting for reengineering costs incurred in connection with the
development 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 year ended December 31, 1999. In
addition, Sections 23-1-37-9 and 23-1-37-13 provide that the Company, unless
limited by its articles of incorporation, must indemnify a director or officer
who was wholly successful 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.

                                      II-1
<PAGE>   3

     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 outside directors. Under its form
of indemnification agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify such 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
     decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
     securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
     deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
     may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
     pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
     price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering
     price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
     effective 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 report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in

                                      II-2
<PAGE>   4

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 provisions described under Item 6 above, 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 of 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.
