statute, may be called by the Chairman of the Board and shall be called by the
Chairman of the Board or Secretary at the request in writing of a majority of
the Board of Directors, or at the request in writing of stockholders owning
eighty percent or more in amount of the entire capital stock of the Corporation
issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Such request shall state the
purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting.
Section 2.5. NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Except as otherwise expressly
provided by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation or these By- Laws,
written or printed notice of each annual or special meeting of stockholders
shall be given by mail at least ten but not more than sixty days before the
meeting to the stockholders of record entitled to vote thereat. Every such
notice shall be directed to a stockholder at his address as it shall appear on
the transfer books of the Corporation; shall state the date, time and place of
the meeting; and, in the case of a special meeting, shall state briefly the
purposes thereof. Business transacted at all special meetings shall be
confined to the purposes stated in the notice thereof.
Section 2.6. QUORUM AND ADJOURNMENTS. The holders of a majority of
the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in
person or represented by proxy, shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute
a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business,
except as otherwise provided by statute, by the Certificate of Incorporation,
or by these By-Laws. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or
represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to
vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to
adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement
at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such
adjourned meeting, at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any
business may be transacted
<PAGE> 2
which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. The
absence from any meeting of the number required by law or by the Certificate of
Incorporation or these By-Laws for action upon any given matter shall not
prevent action at such meeting upon any other matter or matters which may
properly come before the meeting if the number required in respect of such
other matter or matters shall be present. Once a quorum is present at a
meeting, it shall be deemed to be acting thereafter throughout the meeting,
irrespective of any withdrawals. Nothing in these By-Laws shall affect the
right to adjourn where a quorum is present.
Section 2.7. VOTING BY STOCKHOLDERS. When a quorum is present at any
meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock having voting power
present in person or represented by proxy shall decide any question brought
before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which by express provision
of the statutes or of the Certificate of Incorporation or of these By-Laws a
different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern
and control the decision of such question.
At any meeting of the stockholders every stockholder having the right
to vote shall be entitled to vote in person, or by proxy appointed by an
instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by his attorney or
agent thereunto authorized in writing, and bearing a date not more than three
years prior to said meeting, unless said instrument provides for a longer
period. Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, each
stockholder present in person or by proxy at any meeting shall have, on each
matter on which stockholders are entitled to vote, one vote for each share of
stock having voting power, registered in his name on the books of the
Corporation.
Section 2.8. NEW BUSINESS PROPOSALS AT ANNUAL MEETINGS. Only such new
business shall be conducted, and only such proposals shall be acted upon at an
annual meeting of stockholders, as shall have been properly brought before such
annual meeting (a) by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors, or (b)
by any stockholder of the Corporation who complies with the notice procedures
set forth in this Section 2.8. A stockholder who wishes to bring a proposal
before an annual meeting shall give timely notice thereof in writing to the
Secretary of the Corporation. Such notice, to be timely, shall be delivered
to, or mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices
of the Corporation at least sixty days but not more than ninety days prior to
the scheduled annual meeting, regardless of any postponements, deferrals or
adjournments of that meeting to a later date; provided, however, that if less
than seventy days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the
scheduled annual meeting is given or made, such notice by a stockholder to be
timely shall be so delivered or received not later than the close of business
on the tenth day following the earlier of the day on which notice of the
scheduled annual meeting was mailed or the day on which public disclosure
thereof was made.
Each such stockholder notice shall set forth as to each proposal to be
brought before the annual meeting (a) a brief description of the proposal and
the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (b) the name
and address, as they appear on the transfer books of the Corporation, of the
stockholder proposing such business and any other stockholders known by such
stockholder to be supporting the proposal, (c) the class and number of shares
of the Corporation's stock which are beneficially owned by the stockholder on
the date of such stockholder notice and by any other stockholders known by such
stockholder to be supporting such proposal, and (d) any financial interest of
the stockholder in such proposal.
The Board of Directors may reject any stockholder proposal not timely
made in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8. If the Board of
Directors, or a designated committee thereof, determines that the information
provided in a stockholder's notice does not satisfy the informational
requirements of this Section 2.8 in any material respect, the Secretary shall
promptly notify such stockholder of the deficiency in the notice. The
stockholder shall have an opportunity to cure the deficiency by providing
additional information to the Secretary within five days from the date such
notice of deficiency is given to the stockholder, as the Board of Directors or
such committee shall reasonably determine. If the deficiency is not cured
within such period, or if the Board of Directors or such committee determines
that the additional information provided by the stockholder, together with the
information previously provided, does not satisfy the requirements of this
Section 2.8 in any material respect, then the Board of Directors may reject
such proposal. The Secretary shall notify the stockholder in writing whether
his proposal has been made in accordance with the time and informational
requirements of this Section 2.8. Notwithstanding the procedure set forth in
this Section 2.8, if neither the Board of Directors nor such committee makes a
determination as to the validity of any stockholder proposal, the presiding
officer of the annual meeting shall determine and declare at the annual meeting
whether the stockholder proposal was made in accordance with the terms of this
Section 2.8. If the presiding officer determines that the stockholder's
proposal was not made in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8, he
shall so declare at the annual meeting and any such proposal shall not be acted
upon at the annual meeting.
This Section 2.8 shall not prevent the consideration and approval or
disapproval at an annual meeting of reports of officers, directors and
committees of the Board of Directors, but, in connection with such reports, no
new business shall be acted upon at such annual meeting unless stated, filed
and received as herein provided.

Corporation as an individual Trustee, Committee member, administrator or
fiduciary of a pension or other benefit plan for employees of the Corporation,
or of an affiliated corporation or other enterprise.
Persons who are not covered by the foregoing provisions of this
Article and who are or were employees or agents of the Corporation or a
division thereof, or are or were serving at the request of the Corporation as
employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, may be indemnified to the extent authorized at any time or
from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
The indemnification provided or permitted by this Article shall not be
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled
by law or otherwise, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him
and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against
such liability under the provisions of this Article.
The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent to which it is empowered
to do so by the General Corporation Law of Delaware, or any other applicable
laws, as from time to time in effect, pay expenses, including attorneys' fees,
incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding, in advance of the final
disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, to any person who is or was a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any such threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director
or officer of the Corporation, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf
of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that
such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized
by applicable laws.

EXHIBIT (10)(j)
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT entered into as of the 21st day of February, 1995, by and
between Sundstrand Corporation (the "Company"), and Patrick L. Thomas, an
individual (the "Executive") (hereinafter collectively referred to as "the
parties").
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") recognizes
that the possibility of a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined in Section
8(e)) exists and that the threat of or the occurrence of a Change in Control
can result in significant distractions of its key management personnel because
of the uncertainties inherent in such a situation;
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it is essential and in the best
interest of the Company and its stockholders to retain the services of the
Executive in the event of a threat or occurrence of a Change in Control and to
ensure his continued dedication and efforts in such event without undue concern
for his personal financial and employment security; and
WHEREAS, in order to induce the Executive to remain in the employ of the
Company, particularly in the event of a threat of or the occurrence of a Change
in Control, the Company desires to enter into this Agreement with the
Executive.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the respective agreements of the
parties contained herein, it is agreed as follows:
1. Employment Term. (a) The "Employment Term" shall commence on the
first date during the Protected Period (as defined in Section 1(c) below) on
which a Change in Control occurs (the "Effective Date") and shall expire on the
third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that on each
anniversary of the Effective Date, the Employment Term shall automatically be
extended for one (1) year unless either the Company or the Executive shall have
given written notice to the other at least ninety (90) days prior thereto that
the Employment Term shall not be so extended; and provided, further, that the
Employment Term shall in no event extend beyond the first day of the month
following the month in which the Executive attains age sixty-five (65).
(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, if the Executive's employment is terminated prior to the Effective
Date and the Executive reasonably demonstrates that such termination (1) was at
the request of a third party who has indicated an intention or taken steps
reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control or (2) otherwise occurred
in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control, then for all
purposes of this Agreement, the Effective Date shall mean the date immediately
prior to the date of such termination of the Executive's employment.
<PAGE> 2
-2-
(c) For purposes of this Agreement, the "Protected Period" shall
be the two (2) year period commencing on February 21, 1995, provided,
however, that the Protected Period shall be automatically extended for one (1)
year on February 21, 1996 and on each February 21 thereafter unless the Company
shall have given written notice to the Executive at least ninety (90) days
prior thereto that the Protected Period shall not be so extended; and provided,
further, that notwithstanding any such notice by the Company not to extend, the
Protected Period shall not end if prior to the expiration thereof any third
party has indicated an intention or taken steps reasonably calculated to effect
a Change in Control, in which event the Protected Period shall end only after
such third party publicly announces that it has abandoned all efforts to effect
a Change in Control.
2. Employment. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8 hereof,
the Company agrees to continue to employ the Executive and the Executive agrees
to remain in the employ of the Company during the Employment Term. During the
Employment Term, the Executive shall be employed as Executive Vice President
and Chief Operating Officer, Industrial, of the Company or in such other senior
executive capacity as may be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties. The
Executive shall perform the duties, undertake the responsibilities and exercise
the authority customarily performed, undertaken and exercised by persons
situated in a similar executive capacity. He shall also promote, by
entertainment or otherwise, the business of the Company.
(b) Excluding periods of vacation and sick leave to which the
executive is entitled, during the Employment Term the Executive agrees to
devote reasonable attention and time during usual business hours to the
business and affairs of the Company to the extent necessary to discharge the
responsibilities assigned to the Executive hereunder. The executive may (i)
serve on corporate, civil or charitable boards or committees (ii) manage
personal investments and (iii) deliver lectures and teach at educational
institutions, so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with
the performance of the Executive's responsibilities hereunder.
3. Base Salary. During the Employment Term, the Company agrees to pay
or cause to be paid to the Executive during the term of this Agreement a base
salary at the rate of $300,000 per annum or such larger amount as the Company
may from time to time determine (hereinafter referred to as the "Base Salary").
Such Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company's customary
practices applicable to its executives.
4. Employee Benefits. During the Employment Term, the Executive shall
be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans, practices and
programs maintained by the Company and made available to employees generally
including, without limitation all pension, retirement, profit sharing, savings,
medical, hospitalization, disability, dental, life or travel accident
<PAGE> 3
-3-
insurance benefit plans. The Executive's participation in such plans,
practices and programs shall be on the same basis and terms as are applicable
to employees of the Company generally.
5. Executive Benefits. During the Employment Term, the Executive
shall be entitled to participate in all executive benefit or incentive
compensation plans now maintained or hereafter established by the Company for
the purpose of providing compensation and/or benefits to executives of the
Company including, but not limited to, the Company's 1989 Restricted Stock
Plan, the Sundstrand Corporation Stock Incentive Plan, the Officer Incentive
Plan, and any supplemental retirement, salary continuation, stock option,
deferred compensation, supplemental medical or life insurance or other bonus or
incentive compensation plans. Unless otherwise provided herein, the
Executive's participation in such plans shall be on the same basis and terms as
other similarly situated executives of the Company, but in no event on a basis
less favorable in terms of benefit levels or reward opportunities applicable to
the Executive as in effect on the Effective Date. No additional compensation
provided under any of such plans shall be deemed to modify or otherwise affect
the terms of this Agreement or any of the Executive's entitlements hereunder.
6. Other Benefits. (a) Fringe Benefits and Perquisites. During the
Employment Term, the Executive shall be entitled to all fringe benefits and
perquisites (e.g. physical examinations, financial planning and tax preparation
services) made available by the Company to similarly situated executives.
(b) Expenses. During the Employment Term, the Executive shall be
entitled to receive prompt reimbursement of all expenses reasonably incurred by
him in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder or for
promoting, pursuing or otherwise furthering the business or interests of the
Company.
(c) As of the Effective Date, all restrictions on any outstanding
award (including restricted stock awards) granted to the Executive shall lapse
and such awards shall become fully (100%) vested immediately, and all stock
options and stock appreciation rights granted to the Executive shall become
fully (100%) vested and shall become immediately exercisable.
7. Vacation and Sick Leave. During the Employment Term, at such
reasonable times as the Board shall in its discretion permit, the Executive
shall be entitled, without loss of pay, to absent himself voluntarily from the
performance of his employment under this Agreement, provided that:
(a) The Executive shall be entitled to annual vacation in
accordance with the policies as periodically established by the Board for
similarly situated executives of the Company.
<PAGE> 4
-4-
(b) The Executive shall be entitled to sick leave (without loss of
pay) in accordance with the Company's policies as in effect from time to time.
8. Termination. During the Employment Term, the Executive's
employment hereunder may be terminated under the following circumstances:
(a) Disability. The Company may terminate the Executive's
employment after having established the Executive's Disability. For purposes
of this Agreement, "Disability" means a physical or mental infirmity which
impairs the Executive's ability to substantially perform his duties under this
Agreement, which continues for a period of at least one hundred eighty (180)
consecutive days and which cannot be reasonably accommodated by the Company.
The Executive shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits provided for
under this Agreement for any period during the term of this Agreement and prior
to the establishment of the Executive's Disability during which the Executive
is unable to work due to a physical or mental infirmity. Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, until the Termination
Date specified in a Notice of Termination (as each term is hereinafter defined)
relating to the Executive's Disability, the Executive shall be entitled to
return to his position with the Company as set forth in this Agreement in which
event no Disability of the Executive will be deemed to have occurred.
(b) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive's employment
for "Cause." A Termination for Cause is a termination evidenced by a
resolution adopted in good faith by a majority of the Board that the Executive
(i) willfully and continually failed to substantially perform his duties with
the Company (other than a failure resulting from the Executive's incapacity due
to physical or mental illness) which failure continued for a period of at least
thirty (30) days after a written notice of demand for substantial performance
has been delivered to the Executive specifying the manner in which the
Executive has failed to substantially perform, or (ii) willfully engaged in
conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company,
monetarily or otherwise; provided, however, that no termination of the
Executive's employment shall be for Cause as set forth in clause (ii) above
until (x) there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a written
notice setting forth that the Executive was guilty of the conduct set forth in
clause (ii) and specifying the particulars thereof in detail, and (y) the
Executive shall have been provided an opportunity to be heard by the Board
(with the assistance of the Executive's counsel if the Executive so desires).
No act, nor failure to act, on the Executive's part, shall be considered
"willful" unless he has acted or failed to act, with an absence of good faith
and without a reasonable belief that his action or failure to act was in the
best interest of the Company. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement to the contrary, no failure to perform by the
<PAGE> 5
-5-
Executive after Notice of Termination is given by the Executive shall
constitute Cause for purposes of this Agreement.
(c) (1) Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment
for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean the
occurrence after a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined in this Section
8(e)) of any of the events or conditions described in Subsections (i) through
(vii) hereof:
(i) a change in the Executive's status, title, position
or responsibilities (including reporting responsibilities) which, in the
Executive's reasonable judgment, does not represent a promotion from his
status, title, position or responsibilities as in effect immediately
prior thereto; the assignment to the Executive of any duties or
responsibilities which, in the Executive's reasonable judgment, are
inconsistent with such status, title, position or responsibilities; or
any removal of the Executive from or failure to reappoint or reelect him
to any of such positions, except in connection with the termination of
his employment for Disability, Cause, as a result of his death or by the
Executive other than for Good Reason;
(ii) a reduction in the Executive's Base Salary or any
failure to pay the Executive any compensation or benefits to which he is
entitled within five (5) days of the date due;
(iii) the failure by the Company to (A) continue in effect
any material compensation or benefit plan in which the Executive was
participating at the time of the Change in Control, including, but not
limited to, the Company's 1989 Restricted Stock Plan, the Sundstrand
Corporation Stock Incentive Plan, and the Officer Incentive Compensation
Plan or (B) provide the Executive with compensation and benefits at least
equal (in terms of benefit levels and/or reward opportunities) to those
provided for under each employee benefit plan, program and practice as in
effect immediately prior to the Change in Control (or as in effect
following the Change in Control, if greater);
(iv) the insolvency or the filing (by any party,
including the Company) of a petition for bankruptcy, of the Company;
(v) any material breach by the Company of any provision
of this Agreement;
(vi) any purported termination of the Executive's
employment for Cause by the Company which does not comply with the terms
of Section 8 of this Agreement; and
<PAGE> 6
-6-
(vii) the failure of the Company to obtain an agreement,
satisfactory to the Executive, from any successor or assign of the
Company to assume and agree to perform this Agreement, as contemplated in
Section 12 hereof.
(2) Any event or condition described in this Section 8(c)(i)
through (vii) which occurs prior to the Effective Date but which the Executive
reasonably demonstrates (i) was at the request of a third party who has
indicated an intention or taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change
in Control, or (ii) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of a
Change in Control, shall constitute Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement
notwithstanding that it occurred prior to the Effective Date.
(3) The Executive's right to terminate his employment
pursuant to this Section (8)(c) shall not be affected by his incapacity due to
physical or mental illness.
(d) Voluntary Termination. The Executive may voluntarily
terminate his employment hereunder at any time. If the Executive voluntarily
terminates his employment for any reason or without reason during the sixty
(60) day period which commences on the date which is six (6) months following
the Effective Date, it shall be referred to as a "Limited Period Termination".
(e) Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change
in Control" shall mean any of the following events:
(1) The acquisition (other than from the Company) by any
person (as such term is defined in Sections 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act")) of beneficial ownership
(within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act) of
thirty-three percent (33%) or more of the combined voting power of the
Company's then outstanding voting securities;
(2) The individuals who, as of the date hereof, are members of
the Board (the "Incumbent Board"), cease for any reason to constitute a
majority of the Board, unless the election, or nomination for election by the
Company stockholders, of any new director was approved by a vote of a majority
of the Incumbent Board, and such new director shall, for purposes of this
Agreement, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or
(3) Approval by stockholders of the Company of (i) a merger
or consolidation involving the Company if the stockholders of the Company,
immediately before such merger or consolidation, do not, as a result of such
merger or consolidation, own, directly or indirectly, more than sixty-seven
percent (67%) of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation in
<PAGE> 7
-7-
substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the combined voting
power of the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately before
such merger or consolidation or (ii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of
the Company or an agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur
pursuant to Section 8(e)(l), solely because thirty-three percent (33%) or more
of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities is
acquired by (i) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or
more employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or (ii) any corporation which, immediately prior to such
acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company
in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the Company immediately
prior to such acquisition.
(f) Notice of Termination. Any purported termination by the
Company or by the Executive shall be communicated by written Notice of
Termination to the other. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of
Termination" shall mean a notice which indicates the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable
detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination
of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. For purposes
of this Agreement, no such purported termination of employment shall be
effective without such Notice of Termination.
(g) Termination Date, Etc. "Termination Date" shall mean in the
case of the Executive's death, his date of death, or in all other cases, the
date specified in the Notice of Termination subject to the following:
(1) If the Executive's employment is terminated by the
Company for Cause or due to Disability, the date specified in the Notice of
Termination shall be at least thirty (30) days from the date the Notice of
Termination is given to the Executive, provided that in the case of Disability
the Executive shall not have returned to the full-time performance of his
duties during such period of at least thirty (30) days; and
(2) If the Executive's employment is terminated for Good
Reason or is a Limited Period Termination, the date specified in the Notice of
Termination shall not be more than sixty (60) days from the date the Notice of
Termination is given to the Company.
9. Compensation Upon Termination. Upon termination of the Executive's
employment during the Employment Term, the Executive shall be entitled to the
following benefits:
<PAGE> 8
-8-
(a) If the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for
Cause or Disability or by the Executive (other than for Good Reason or a
Limited Period Termination), or by reason of the Executive's death, the Company
shall pay the Executive all amounts earned or accrued hereunder through the
Termination Date but not paid as of the Termination Date, including Base
Salary, vacation pay, bonuses or incentive compensation and any previous
compensation which the Executive has previously deferred (including any
interest earned or credited thereon) (collectively, "Accrued Compensation").
In addition to the foregoing, if the Executive's employment is terminated by
the Company for Disability or by reason of the Executive's death, the Company
shall pay to the Executive or his beneficiaries an amount equal to the bonus or
incentive award that the Executive would have been entitled to receive in
respect of the fiscal year in which the Executive's Termination Date occurs had
he continued in employment until the end of such fiscal year, calculated as if
the maximum bonus payable to the Executive had been earned for such year,
multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in such
fiscal year through the Termination Date and the denominator of which is 365 (a
"Pro Rata Bonus"). The Executive's entitlement to any other compensation or
benefits shall be determined in accordance with the Company's employee benefit
plans and other applicable programs and practices then in effect.
(b) If the Executive's employment by the Company shall be
terminated (1) by the Company other than for Cause, death or Disability, (2) by
the Executive for Good Reason, or (3) by the Executive as a Limited Period
Termination, then the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided
below:
(i) the Company shall pay the Executive all Accrued
Compensation and a Pro Rata Bonus;
(ii) the Company shall pay the Executive as severance pay and
in lieu of any further salary for periods subsequent to the Termination
Date, in a single payment an amount in cash equal to three (3) times the
sum of (A) the Executive's Base Salary at the highest rate in effect at
any time within the ninety (90) day period ending on the date the Notice
of Termination is given (or if the Executive's employment is terminated
after a Change in Control, the Executive's Base Salary immediately prior
to the Change in Control, if greater) and (B) the "Bonus Amount" (as
defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount to be paid
under this Subsection (ii) shall be multiplied by a fraction (which in no
event shall be greater than one (1)) the numerator of which shall be the
number of months (for this purpose any partial month shall be considered
as a whole month) remaining until the Executive's 65th birthday and the
denominator of which shall be thirty-six (36). The term "Bonus Amount"
shall mean (x) the greatest amount of any cash bonus or incentive
<PAGE> 9
-9-
compensation received by the Executive during the three fiscal years
immediately preceding the Termination Date or (y) if no such bonus was
received by the Executive during any of such three years, then an amount
equal to the Executive's maximum bonus which could be awarded for the
fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs had he continued in
employment until the end of such fiscal year.
(iii) for a number of months equal to the lesser of (A)
thirty-six (36) or (B) the number of months remaining until the
Executive's 65th birthday, the Company shall at its expense continue on
behalf of the Executive and his dependents and beneficiaries the life
insurance, disability, medical, dental and hospitalization benefits which
were being provided to the Executive at the time Notice of Termination is
given (or, if the Executive is terminated following a Change in Control,
the benefits provided to the Executive at the time of the Change in
Control, if greater). The benefits provided in this Section 9(b)(iii)
shall be no less favorable to the Executive, in terms of amounts and
deductibles and costs to him, than the coverage provided the Executive
under the plans providing such benefits at the time of Notice of
Termination is given (or, if the Executive is terminated following a
Change in Control, at the time of the Change in Control if more favorable
to the Executive). The Company's obligation hereunder with respect to
the foregoing benefits shall be limited to the extent that the Executive
obtains any such benefits pursuant to a subsequent employer's benefit
plans, in which case the Company may reduce the coverage of any benefits
it is required to provide the Executive hereunder as long as the
aggregate coverage of the combined benefit plans is no less favorable to
the Executive, in terms of amounts and deductibles and costs to him, than
the coverage required to be provided hereunder. This Subsection (iii)
shall not be interpreted so as to limit any benefits to which the
Executive or his dependents may be entitled under any of the Company's
employee benefit plans, programs or practices following the Executive's
termination of employment, including without limitation, retiree medical
and life insurance benefits;
(iv) the Company shall pay in a single payment an amount in
cash equal to the excess of (A) the actuarial equivalent of the aggregate
retirement benefit the Executive would have been entitled to receive
under the Company's supplemental and excess retirement plans and under
the Sundstrand Corporation Retirement Plan-Aerospace had (x) the
executive remained employed by the Company for an additional three (3)
complete years of credited service (or until his 65th birthday if
earlier), (y) his annual
<PAGE> 10
-10-
compensation during such period been equal to his Base Salary (at the
rate used for purposes of Section 9(b)(ii)) and the Bonus Amount, and (z)
he been fully (100%) vested in his benefit under each such retirement
plan, over (B) the actuarial equivalent of the aggregate retirement
benefit the Executive is actually entitled to receive under such
retirement plans. For purposes of this Subsection (iv), "actuarial
equivalent" shall be determined in accordance with the actuarial
assumptions used for the calculation of benefits under the Sundstrand
Corporation Retirement Plan-Aerospace as applied prior to the
Termination Date in accordance with such plan's past practices (but
shall in any event take into account the value of any subsidized early
retirement benefit);
(v) the eligibility requirements for the Company's Retiree
Health Insurance Plan shall be waived, and commencing on the Executive's
termination of employment, he shall be provided with the same health care
coverage as provided to other eligible retirees; and
(vi) the age 62 and 30-year requirements of the Executive Life
Insurance Program for retirees are waived, and commencing on the
Executive's termination of employment, he shall be provided with a life
insurance benefit of one time his annual base salary at the time of his
termination of employment.
(c) The amounts provided for in Sections 9(a) and 9(b)(i), (ii)
and (iv) shall be paid within five (5) days after the Executive's Termination
Date.
(d) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of
any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or
otherwise and no such payment shall be offset or reduced by the amount of any
compensation or benefits provided to the Executive in any subsequent
employment.
10. Excise Tax Payments. (a) Notwithstanding anything contained in
this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any payment (within the
meaning of Section 28OG(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code")), or distribution to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether
paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or otherwise in connection with, or arising out of, his employment
with the Company (a "Payment" or "Payments"), would be subject to the excise
tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are
incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax,
collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then the Executive shall be
entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount
such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest
or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including any Excise Tax,
imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the
<PAGE> 11
-11-
Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax
imposed upon the Payments.
(b) An initial determination shall be made as to whether a
Gross-Up Payment is required pursuant to this Section 10 and the amount of such
Gross-Up Payment shall be made by a national independent accounting firm
selected by the Executive (the "Accounting Firm"). All fees, costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, the cost of retaining experts) of the
Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Company and the Company shall pay such
fees, costs and expenses as they become due. The Accounting Firm shall provide
detailed supporting calculations, acceptable to the Executive, both to the
Company and the Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the Termination
Date, if applicable, or such other time as requested by the Company or by the
Executive (provided the Executive reasonably believes that any of the Payments
may be subject to the Excise Tax). The Gross-Up Payment, if any, as determined
pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall be paid by the Company to the Executive
within five (5) business days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's
determination. If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable
by the Executive with respect to a Payment or Payments, it shall furnish the
Executive with an unqualified opinion that no Excise Tax will be imposed with
respect to any such Payment or Payments. Any such initial determination by the
Accounting Firm of the Gross-Up Payment shall be binding upon the Company and
the Executive subject to the application of Section 10(c).
(c) As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section
4999 and 28OG of the Code, it is possible that a Gross-Up Payment (or a portion
thereof) will be paid which should not have been paid (an "Overpayment") or a
Gross-Up Payment (or a portion thereof) which should have been paid will not
have been paid (an "Underpayment"). An Underpayment shall be deemed to have
occurred upon notice (formal or informal) to the Executive from any
governmental taxing authority that the tax liability of the Executive (whether
in respect of the then current taxable year of the Executive or in respect of
any prior taxable year of the Executive) may be increased by reason of the
imposition of the Excise Tax on a Payment or Payments with respect to which the
Company has failed to make a sufficient Gross-Up Payment. An Overpayment shall
be deemed to have occurred upon a "Final Determination" (as hereinafter
defined) that the Excise Tax shall not be imposed upon a Payment or Payments
with respect to which the Executive had previously received a Gross-Up Payment.
A Final Determination shall be deemed to have occurred when the Executive has
received from the applicable governmental taxing authority a refund of taxes or
other reduction in his tax liability by reason of the Overpayment and upon
either (i) the date a determination is made by, or an agreement is entered into
with, the applicable governmental taxing authority which finally and
conclusively binds the Executive and such taxing authority, or in the event
that a claim is brought before a court of competent jurisdiction, the date upon
which a final determination has been made by such court and
<PAGE> 12
-12-
either all appeals have been taken and finally resolved or the time for all
appeals has expired or (ii) the statute of limitations with respect to the
Executive's applicable tax return has expired. If an Underpayment occurs, the
Executive shall promptly notify the Company and the Company shall pay to the
Executive at least five (5) business days prior to the date on which the
applicable governmental taxing authority has requested payment, an additional
Gross-Up Payment equal to the amount of the Underpayment plus any interest and
penalties imposed on the Underpayment. If an Overpayment occurs, the amount of
the Overpayment shall be treated as a loan by the Company to the Executive and
the Executive shall, within ten (10) business days of the occurrence of such
Overpayment, pay the Company the amount of the Overpayment plus interest at an
annual rate equal to the rate provided for in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code
from the date the Gross-Up Payment (to which the Overpayment relates) was paid
to the Executive.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, in the event it is determined that an Excise Tax will be imposed on
any Payment or Payments, the Company shall pay to the applicable governmental
taxing authorities as Excise Tax withholding, the amount of the Excise Tax that
the Company has actually withheld from the Payment or Payments.
11. Unauthorized Disclosure. The Executive shall not make any
Unauthorized Disclosure. For purposes of this Agreement, "Unauthorized
Disclosure" shall mean disclosure by the Executive without the consent of the
Board to any person, other than an employee of the Company or a person to whom
disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the
performance by the Executive of his duties as an executive of the Company or as
may be legally required, of any confidential information obtained by the
Executive while in the employ of the Company (including, but not limited to,
any confidential information with respect to any of the Company's customers or
methods of distribution) the disclosure of which he knows or has reason to
believe will be materially injurious to the Company; provided, however, that
such term shall not include the use or disclosure by the Executive, without
consent, of any information known generally to the public (other than as a
result of disclosure by him in violation of this Section 11) or any information
not otherwise considered confidential by a reasonable person engaged in the
same business as that conducted by the Company.
12. Successors and Assigns. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns and
the Company shall require any successor or assign to expressly assume and agree
to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the
Company would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had
taken place. The term "the Company" as used herein shall include such
successors and assigns. The term "successors and assigns" as used herein shall
mean a corporation or other entity acquiring all
<PAGE> 13
-13-
or substantially all the assets and business of the Company (including this
Agreement) whether by operation of law or otherwise.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder
shall be assignable or transferable by the Executive, his beneficiaries or
legal representatives, except by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by the Executive's legal representative.
13. Fees and Expenses. As of the Effective Date, the Company shall pay
all legal fees and related expenses (including the costs of experts, evidence
and counsel) reasonably incurred by the Executive as they become due as a
result of (i) the Executive's termination of employment (including all such
fees and expenses, if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such
termination of employment), (ii) the Executive's hearing before the Board as
contemplated in Section (8)(b) of this Agreement, (iii) the Executive's seeking
to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or by any
other plan or arrangement maintained by the Company under which the Executive
is or may be entitled to receive benefits, or (iv) a dispute between the
Executive and the Internal Revenue Service (or any other taxing authority) with
regard to an "Underpayment" (as defined in Section 10 of this Agreement).
14. Notice. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other
communications provided for in the Agreement (including the Notice of
Termination) shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given
when personally delivered or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses last given by each party
to the other, provided that all notices to the Company shall be directed to the
attention of the Board with a copy to the Secretary of the Company. All
notices and communications shall be deemed to have been received on the date of
delivery thereof or on the third business day after the mailing thereof, except
that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.
15. Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent
or limit the Executive's continuing or future participation in any benefit,
bonus, incentive or other plan or program provided by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries and for which the Executive may qualify, nor shall anything herein
limit or reduce such rights as the Executive may have under any other
agreements with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Amounts which are
vested benefits or which the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under
any plan or program of the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall be payable
in accordance with such plan or program, except as explicitly modified by this
Agreement.
<PAGE> 14
-14-
16. Settlement of Claims. The Company's obligation to make the
payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its
obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances, including,
without limitation, any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
right which the Company may have against the Executive or others.
17. Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be modified,
waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to
in writing and signed by the Executive and the Company. No waiver by either
party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or
compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed
by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar
provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No
agreement or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with
respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are
not expressly set forth in this Agreement.
18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois without
giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.
19. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.
20. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements, if any,
understandings and arrangements, oral or written, between the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, The Company has caused this Agreement to be executed
by its duly authorized officer and the Executive has executed this Agreement as
of the day and year first above written.

nor should this Agreement be so construed. Each Party's net income, if any,
derived from its sales and services rendered in connection with any APU program
is not within the control or scope of this Agreement. Neither Party is
empowered to make contractual commitments which bind the other with respect to
third parties.

fully described hereinafter.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I - SCOPE, PRODUCTS, GENERAL
1-A. SCOPE
This Agreement is expressly aimed at expanding the marketability of APU
products, either existing, currently in development or contemplated by either
Party, so as to establish the Sales Corporation and the Parties as leaders in

-6-
1-B(1)(b) Other existing APU models of either Party for Commercial
Aircraft will be marketed or otherwise represented, sold and supported by such
Party, unless the Party requests and the Board of Directors of the Sales
Corporation determines after analysis on a case-by-case basis that the existing
APU model should be marketed or otherwise represented and sold by the Sales
Corporation.
1-B(2) New Products
Unless the Board of Directors of the Sales Corporation determines
otherwise, after analysis on a case-by-case basis, all new APU products of the

agrees to make space available to the Sales Corporation at the premises
identified as 4450 Ruffin Road, San Diego, California 92193 subject to the
terms and conditions of a Lease attached hereto as Exhibit 4. Should there be a
need for more than one location for the Sales Corporation in the United States,

to meet such needs, with the Sales Corporation maintaining managerial control.
2-D. CAPITALIZATION - PERSONNEL
The Parties agree to provide the Sales Corporation with adequate
capitalization and personnel to discharge properly the functions of the Sales
Corporation. The foregoing will not be construed to provide the officers or
other personnel of the Sales Corporation the authority or right to direct the
Parties or their personnel except as specifically agreed by the Parties and the
Sales Corporation.
2-E EQUITY
2-E(1) Ownership.
Unless otherwise agreed, each Party shall maintain an equal equity
ownership (a "Shareholder Interest") in the Sales Corporation as follows:
<PAGE> 11
-9-
TEC currently owns 500 Class A Shares of Common Stock of the Sales
Corporation and 500 Class A Shares of Preferred Stock of the Sales Corporation;
and
SUNDSTRAND currently owns 500 Class B Shares of Common Stock of the Sales
Corporation and 500 Class B Shares of Preferred Stock of the Sales Corporation.
In the event the Board of Directors of the Sales Corporation determines
that the Sales Corporation requires additional working capital, each of the
Parties will contribute additional amounts of capital, make advances or loans
or extend guarantees to support financial accommodations to the Sales
Corporation, in each instance in equal amounts or on an equal basis.
2-E(2) Transfer of Shareholder Interest
Unless otherwise agreed, neither Party will be entitled, directly or
indirectly, to sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise dispose of or
mortgage, hypothecate or otherwise encumber or permit or suffer an encumbrance
on its shares of stock of the Sales Corporation except as provided in
Paragraphs 2-E(2)(a) through 2-E(2)(e) below.
2-E(2)(a) Each Party may transfer all of its shares of stock of the Sales
Corporation to any subsidiary more than fifty (50) percent owned by it,
provided the remaining shares of such subsidiary are not owned by an entity
engaged in a business competitive with the business
<PAGE> 12
-10-
conducted by the Sales Corporation and provided further that any such
transferee will have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement.
2-E(2)(b) In the event any Party (1) no longer intends to engage in the
business of designing, developing and manufacturing APUs for use on Commercial
Aircraft (the "APU Business"), or (2) is adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent or
becomes subject to voluntary or involuntary dissolution, such Party ("First
Party") will give written notice of such intention or the occurrence of such
condition to the other Party ("Second Party"). For a period of sixty (60) days
after receipt by the Second Party of such notice, the Second Party will have
the right to notify the First Party of its intent to purchase all of the shares
of stock of the Sales Corporation (the "Offered Shares") and the APU Business
of the First Party. The Second Party may exercise such right by giving, prior
to the expiration of the sixty (60) day period, written notice to the First
Party stating its intention to purchase the Offered Shares and the APU
Business. The purchase price will be the fair market value of the Offered
Shares and the APU Business as determined by a valuation expert of recognized
international standing selected by the Parties as provided in Paragraph
2-E(2)(e) below or the purchase price offered in writing by a bona fide third
party purchaser for the Offered Shares and the APU Business, in the event such
a third party offer has been made to the First Party. The Second Party's
obligation to proceed with the purchase of the First Party's Offered Shares and
the APU Business will be subject to the Second Party's approval of the purchase
price as determined by the valuation expert or the third party purchase price
and
<PAGE> 13
-11-
such approval and intention to proceed will be confirmed by written notice to
the First Party within twenty (20) days of the Second Party's receipt of the
appraisal report or copy of the bona fide third party offer. Unless a
different place or time is agreed upon by the Parties, within forty (40) days
after receipt by the First Party of such confirming notice, the First Party
will deliver to the Second Party at the principal offices of the Sales
Corporation the certificate or certificates evidencing the Offered Shares,
properly endorsed, and such other documents as shall be necessary and
appropriate to transfer the APU Business, and the Second Party will make
payment therefor in cash or by certified check, or by such other means as may
be mutually agreed by the Parties.
2-E(2)(c) In the event that the Second Party referred to in 2-E(2)(b)
above does not exercise its right to purchase the Offered Shares and the APU
Business under Paragraph 2-E(2)(b), the First Party may transfer all of the
Offered Shares and the APU Business to a third party provided that the third
party (1) has agreed to purchase the Offered Shares and all or substantially
all of the APU Business at the price determined by the valuation expert or by
the bona fide third party offer as notified by the First Party to the Second
Party, (2) will have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement, and (3) has a net worth substantially equal to, or greater than,
the net worth, as of the date of this Agreement, of the First Party, which, in
the case of TEC, means Labinal, SA.
<PAGE> 14
-12-
2-E(2)(d) Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions on
transfer of shares of stock of the Sales Corporation are reasonable.
2-E(2)(e) The selection of a valuation expert of recognized international
standing will, for purposes of Paragraph 2-E(2)(b) above, be such an expert as
is mutually agreed to by the Parties. If within twenty (20) days after
delivery of the notice by the Second Party under Paragraph 2-E(2)(b) of its
intention to purchase the Offered Shares and APU Business no agreement on the
selection of a valuation expert can be reached by the Parties, each Party will
select within twenty (20) days one valuation expert of recognized international
standing and then within ten (10) days thereafter the two experts will select a
third expert of recognized international standing who will be the appraiser.
In the event a valuation expert is not selected by one of the Parties within
twenty (20) days after delivery of the notice by the Second Party under
Paragraph 2-E(2)(b), the valuation expert selected by the other Party will be
the appraiser. The appraiser will deliver an appraisal report to the Parties
setting forth the fair market value of the Offered Shares and the APU Business
within sixty (60) days after having been selected. The cost of the appraisal
will be borne equally by the Parties and the result of the appraisal will be
binding on the Parties.
<PAGE> 15

2-F. OFFICIAL LANGUAGE
Normally with customers, the English language will be the official
language for written communications, including, but not limited to, technical
data in documents. As among the Parties and the Sales Corporation, when it is
considered necessary or useful for the precise understanding of the written
communication, each may use its own language.

In the event either the French or U.S. government expresses a desire to
purchase APU products and/or services sold by the Sales Corporation, efforts
will be made to make such sales through the Sales Corporation under the terms

the scope of this Agreement. To enable such government sales, each Party
agrees to enter into appropriate license agreements and technical assistance
agreements on a reasonable basis, subject to applicable governmental export

ARTICLE V - PRICING
5-A. INTERNAL PRICING FACTORS
5-A(1) Decimal Equivalents
For each APU program, the APU will be analyzed by each Party to determine
the decimal value ("Decimal Equivalent Value") of each component (including
assembly and test) in proportion to the total APU having a value of one (1).
The Parties will negotiate to reach agreement on the Decimal Equivalent Value
of each component.
<PAGE> 25
-23-
5-A(2) Forecast
A forecast of the number of APUs, APU spare parts and APU subassemblies
required for each APU program for a predetermined period of time (e.g., annual)
will be prepared regularly for each APU program jointly by the Parties and the
Sales Corporation to identify and adjust supply requirements from the Parties
consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
5-A(3) Purchase Revenue
The Sales Corporation will provide the Parties with anticipated sales
prices of APUs, APU spare parts and APU subassemblies. The volume of APUs, APU
spare parts and APU subassemblies forecast for each program as described in
Paragraph 5-A(2) above will be multiplied by the anticipated sales prices of
same to calculate anticipated total revenue ("Total Revenue"). The Sales
Corporation will also provide the Parties with the anticipated gross sales
margin of the Sales Corporation. By deducting from Total Revenue the
anticipated gross sales margin, the expected revenue ("Purchase Revenue")
available for the purchase of APUs, APU spare parts and APU subassemblies from
the Parties will be determined.
5-A(4) Dollar Value
A "Total Decimal Equivalent Value" of APUs, APU spare parts and APU
subassemblies requirements will be determined by multiplying the requirements
forecast determined in Paragraph 5-A(2) above by the respective Decimal
Equivalent Values determined in Paragraph
<PAGE> 26
-24-
5-A(1) above. The Total Decimal Equivalent Value so determined, divided into
the total Purchase Revenue as determined in Paragraph 5-A(3) above, will
produce a dollar value ("Dollar Value") for a Decimal Equivalent Value of one
for the period covered by the forecast of Paragraph 5-A(2) above.
5-A(5) Purchase Price for Parts
The purchase price for any part ("Purchase Part Price") supplied by either
Party for the account of the Sales Corporation will be calculated by
multiplying the Dollar Value (Paragraph 5-A(4) above) by the Decimal Equivalent
Value for that part (Paragraph 5-A(1) above) for the appropriate period.
5-A(6) Payments to the Parties
At the time that APUs, APU spare parts or APU subassemblies are shipped to
the Sales Corporation or its customer, the Parties will invoice the Sales
Corporation. Payments to the Parties by the Sales Corporation will be made
within thirty (30) days after payments are received by the Sales Corporation
from customers.
<PAGE> 27
-25-
5-A(7) Periodic Review
Periodic (at least semi-annual) forecast reviews will be made by the Sales
Corporation to enable the Parties to adjust work share values to assure
appropriate distribution of relative contributions of the Parties and the
Purchase Revenues of the Sales Corporation.
5-A(8) Warranty and Overhaul Services
Warranty and overhaul services will be provided by the Parties on behalf
of the Sales Corporation. Warranty evaluation and overhaul pricing used
individually by the Parties will be set by the Sales Corporation to assure no
unfair advantage to either Party and to assure that product maintenance costs
are as low as possible.
The Sales Corporation will assure appropriate overhaul pricing by:
5-A(8)(a) allowing only parts sold to the Sales Corporation at the
Purchase Part Price to be used by the Parties in the performance of the
overhaul;
5-A(8)(b) using prices for labor established by the Sales Corporation; and
5-A(8)(c) setting specified allowed labor hours for specific repairs.
<PAGE> 28
-26-
5-B. MANUFACTURING SOURCE
5-B(1) The Parties agree to establish an equal 50/50 participation in
the production and supply of APUs, APU spare parts and APU subassemblies in
each APU program. Between sixty (60) per cent and eighty (80) per cent of the
total parts to be provided should be identified as "Charter Source" parts to be
supplied respectively by the Parties based upon, but not limited to:
5-B(1)(a) the Party selected to have design responsibility;
5-B(1)(b) the Party having existing manufacturing capability;
5-B(1)(c) the Party having optimum access to vendor base; and
5-B(1)(d) any other pertinent considerations.
5-B(2) The remainder of the parts, twenty (20) percent to forty (40)
percent of the total, called "Swing Parts", will be allocated between the
Parties to achieve the desired equal participation in the APU program. Review
of participation will be made at least annually and appropriate adjustments
will be made in Swing Parts responsibility. If the Swing Parts at any
<PAGE> 29
-27-
given time are insufficient to achieve equal participation, responsibility for
Charter Source parts will be re-allocated between the Parties.
5-B(3) Notwithstanding the work split delineated in Paragraphs 5-B(1)
and 5-B(2) above, SUNDSTRAND shall have the primary responsibility for the
production and supply, for the APS-2000 program and derivatives, of APUs, APU
spare parts and APU subassemblies, and TEC shall have primary responsibility
for the production and supply, for the APS-3200 program and derivatives, of
APUs, APU spare parts and APU subassemblies; provided, however, that this
responsibility, with the approval of the Executive Committee, can be altered to
comply with customer requirements.
5-C. VARIATIONS IN ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
5-C(1) Currency Changes
The Parties' cost and pricing decisions for their participation in an APU
program will initially be based upon (a) the respective Parties' assumptions
with respect to costs, and (b) the then-current value of the U.S. Dollar as
compared to the French Franc. In consideration of the differences in currency
used by the Parties in the normal course of their respective businesses, the
Parties will endeavor to establish a pricing policy which takes these
differences into account. Annually, prior to December 1 of each year, or more
frequently if the Parties determine it to be necessary, the Sales Corporation
will prepare a forecast by calendar quarter of anticipated orders
<PAGE> 30
-28-
to be placed with TEC for the following calendar year. The forecast will be
based on firm orders the Sales Corporation has received from its customers as
well as its reasonable estimate of future business. The forecast will be
expressed in U.S. Dollars and will indicate anticipated shipping dates by
calendar quarter. Subtracted from the forecast will be an estimate of
commissions, if, any, expressed in U.S. Dollars, due the Sales Corporation from
TEC for orders booked. Additionally, other transactions, as the Parties from
time to time may agree, will be similarly forecasted.
Based upon the foregoing, TEC will provide to SUNDSTRAND's Treasurer for
concurrence, its strategy for minimizing its French Franc/U.S. Dollars
exchange risk. The Parties contemplate that this strategy will involve TEC's
entering into hedging arrangements having a maximum duration of twelve months,
or longer by mutual agreement of the Parties, such agreement not to be
unreasonably withheld. As such arrangements expire or mature, they will be
rolled over or renewed as necessary, if the French Franc/U.S. Dollar exchange
risk remains outstanding. This strategy may be changed as the Parties, from
time to time, agree.
TEC will issue invoices to the Sales Corporation for reimbursement of
premiums (or issue a credit memorandum in the case of discounts) on hedging
arrangements, including rollovers and renewals as contemplated above, and will
issue invoices to the Sales Corporation for reimbursement of costs actually
incurred, if any, in hedging arrangements, provided such
<PAGE> 31
-29-
premiums, discounts or costs are incurred in accordance with the hedging
strategy set forth in the preceding paragraph or as the strategy may be changed
by the Parties from time to time as provided herein. The Sales Corporation
will pay such invoices (or TEC will pay such credit memos) in U.S. Dollars
within thirty (30) days of receipt. Invoices (or credit memos) will be issued
at the time premiums, discounts, or other reimbursable costs are realized.
Currency exchange gains and losses arising from any hedging arrangement, except
as provided in this paragraph and the following paragraph, will be solely for
the account of TEC.
The Treasurers of TEC and SUNDSTRAND will review, on a quarterly basis,
the Sales Corporation's projected revenue flows, outstanding hedging
arrangements and, at such time as the Parties agree, TEC's strategy for
minimizing its French Franc/U.S. Dollar exchange risk. Based upon the
contemplated review, additional hedging arrangements may be entered into or
outstanding hedging arrangements may be cancelled. Currency exchange gains or
losses on hedging arrangements cancelled as a result of such periodic reviews
will be for the account of the Sales Corporation. Invoices or credit
memoranda, as the case may be, will be issued by TEC and paid by the Sales
Corporation or TEC, as appropriate, in U.S. Dollars within thirty (30) days of
receipt of the invoice by the Sales Corporation.
Upon the reasonable request of TEC, and in support of the foregoing, the
Sales Corporation will, as appropriate, issue supporting documentation and will
provide additional
<PAGE> 32
-30-
information, such as: the total value of the purchase orders or contracts,
including transfer price adjustments, if any; commission fees and costs of
purchase; the country of destination; the customer; the terms of payment; the
delivery schedule; and competition, if any, to satisfy the requirements of any
French government agency or banking institution with which TEC may enter into a
hedging arrangement to cover the foreign currency risk. The Sales Corporation
shall take all reasonable steps to provide such documentation and information
in a form acceptable to such government agency or banking institution.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, TEC is under no obligation to enter
into any hedging arrangement, nor is it prohibited from entering into any
hedging arrangement, provided, however, that any premiums, discounts, or other
costs associated with hedging arrangements which are not consistent with the
strategy agreed upon by the Parties to minimize the French Franc/U.S. Dollar
exchange risk of TEC as set forth above or any loss resulting from a failure to
hedge will be for the account of TEC.
5-C(2) Significant Adverse Conditions, Customer or Government Requested or
Required Changes
Additional adjustments may be made with respect to the relative
contributions of the Parties to an APU program in the event:
<PAGE> 33
-31-
5-C(2)(a) significant economic factors beyond a Party's control, including
without limitation significant increases in costs of procuring parts or raw
materials, affect adversely the Party's participation in an APU program; or
5-C(2)(b) a customer or government entity requests or requires a change in
an APU product, and such a request or requirement is accepted by the Parties.
5-C(3) Effective Date of Adjustments
Any such adjustments will be effective at the date agreed upon by the
Parties.
5-D. NON-PRODUCTION WORK/COST SHARING
Each of the Parties will perform and bear an equal share of the

establishing a successful business in marketing and selling APUS for use on
Commercial Aircraft. Accordingly, the Parties agree to utilize the most
appropriate resources residing within their respective companies,
<PAGE> 35
-33-
and to make such resources available to the Sales Corporation as required. The
Parties intend to participate on an equal basis in after-sales support and will
undertake to achieve and maintain this result as expeditiously as possible.
6-B. STAFFING
To meet the demands of supporting APUs in a worldwide market, the Parties
agree to work together to develop a product support capability. In this
connection, the Parties will staff the service and support functions with such
personnel and at such locations as required.
6-C. CUSTOMER INTERFACE
While the Sales Corporation is the primary interface with the customer,
utilizing such resources that already reside in the Parties' organizations, the
Parties understand and agree that they will be providing additional support to
the Sales Corporation in order to maintain customer satisfaction and to resolve
field problems expeditiously. In this connection, overall responsibility for
customer service will be assumed by SUNDSTRAND and TEC and organized by the
Parties as appropriate.
<PAGE> 36
-34-
6-D.. OVERHAUL AND REPAIR
Each Party will be responsible for developing repair and overhaul
procedures and capabilities in order to satisfactorily support Sales
Corporation customers operating the Sales Corporation's products.
6-E.. WARRANTY POLICY
A Sales Corporation product warranty policy and procedure will be
developed for APUs, subassemblies and parts sold by the Sales Corporation to
customers, consistent with the business and strategic objectives of the Sales
Corporation and the Parties. Warranty administration will be carried out by
the Parties, in cooperation with the Sales Corporation, in accordance with
agreed policies and procedures. All warranty expenses will be borne equally by
the Parties. All expenses of the Sales Corporation associated with promotional
programs and/or customer concessions to maintain customer satisfaction will be
incurred by the Sales Corporation or will be shared equally by the Parties. In
the event that either Party is of the opinion that there is a potential of
significant liability on the part of the Sales Corporation as a result of gross
negligence by the other Party, such matter will be referred to the Board of
Directors of the Sales Corporation for resolution.

ARTICLE VII - BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES AND THE SALES
CORPORATION
7-A. REVENUE SHARING - DEFINITION AND INTENT
The Parties intend that the APU programs associated with the Sales
Corporation will commit the Parties to support the Sales Corporation, customers
and each other over a period of many years due to the nature of the business
and the long life that the business products normally achieve.
In recognition of the inherently complex nature of the business
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Parties agree to extend every
effort to simplify the business transactions that will be a normal part of this
Agreement, and to establish policies and procedures that will be adhered to by
the Sales Corporation, SUNDSTRAND and TEC personnel, to insure that the concept
of "simplicity" will endure.
The Parties intend that this Agreement create a revenue sharing
arrangement based on the premise that each Party will contribute fifty (50)
percent of the input to the Sales Corporation, whether in funds, technical
support or manufacturing operations, and the Parties will share equally in the
revenues realized by the Sales Corporation from the sales of their products and
services.
<PAGE> 38
-36-
7-B. MINIMIZING COSTS
The ability of each of the Parties to realize profit on its efforts will
be determined solely by that Party's ability to provide its share of the
products and services at a cost below its share of the revenues earned by the
Sales Corporation. Without in any way modifying the foregoing, if and when the
activities of one Party under this Agreement in providing its share of products
or services may have a direct and significant impact upon the costs of the
other Party's products or services or upon the costs of the Sales Corporation,
the Parties agree to use their best efforts to cooperate with each other to
explore what actions or procedures may be taken which could minimize any
adverse impact upon such costs.
7-C. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES
7-C(1) APU products, subassemblies and parts will be assembled and
tested at the facilities of either Party, depending on the conditions of sale
established by the Sales Corporation. Each of the Parties will supply to or on
behalf of the Sales Corporation APU products, subassemblies and parts for which
it has product responsibility, and perform assembly, testing, and preparation
for shipment services, all at prices established as provided in Paragraph
5-A(5) and subject to terms and conditions agreed upon from time to time with
the Sales Corporation to enable the Sales Corporation to meet its customer
commitments. The Party not performing assembly and testing will deliver to the
assembling Party the necessary subassemblies and parts meeting the technical
requirements and quality criteria required for assembly. In the event APUs,
<PAGE> 39
-37-
subassemblies or parts are shipped by one Party to the other Party for assembly
or other purposes, such APUs, subassemblies or parts will be shipped, delivered
and held in accordance with the terms and conditions of Schedule 1 attached
hereto. All costs incurred for freight and custom duties for APUs,
subassemblies and parts transferred between the Parties will be budgeted and
borne by the Sales Corporation. Except as required by contracts or support
agreements with customers, no APUs, APU spare parts or APU subassemblies will
be held in inventory by the Sales Corporation.
7-C(2) Each of the Parties will invoice the Sales Corporation for
products, subassemblies, parts or services it provides to or on behalf of the
Sales Corporation in accordance with prior agreements between the Parties
regarding the contribution of each Party to that product, subassembly, part or
service. The transfer of title for all manufactured products, subassemblies or
parts so shipped to or on behalf of the Sales Corporation will take place at
the time of shipment to the Sales Corporation or its customer as set forth in
Schedule 1.
7-C(3) If and when the Parties agree to undertake jointly supported
design or development programs aimed at eventual production of new products,
the Parties will establish the work scope and content to be assigned to each
and agree on the value of each Party's contribution, so that the objective of
maintaining equal input by each Party can be objectively evaluated.
<PAGE> 40
-38-
7-C(4) If and when joint development programs are initiated, the
Parties will agree, beforehand, on the responsibility of each Party to carry
out investigative, assurance and/or certification/qualification testing at each
Party's facility or a facility of its choice. Such testing will be conducted
in accordance with the overall engineering development program established and
agreed upon by the Parties at the time the program is initiated.
7-C(5) If and when products sold to the Sales Corporation are required
to undergo testing for purposes of certification, the Parties will develop,
under the direction of the Sales Corporation, a plan to support such activity
and assign responsibility for carrying out that support to appropriate
personnel of either Party or both Parties.
7-C(6) Each Party will be responsible for supplying hardware for any
and all test programs in a condition that will satisfy the design intent and/or
the customer specifications consistent with the assigned responsibilities
established by the Parties at the outset of the program.
7-C(7) In connection with production of an APU, each Party will be
responsible for all production requirements, including, without limitation, all
capital requirements, quality control and inventory, and for meeting the
technical and schedule requirements for that portion of the APU, including

<PAGE> 41
-39-
responsibility, except as production responsibility may otherwise be agreed
upon between the Parties.
7-C(8) The Parties recognize that, as the Sales Corporation develops,
new questions, issues and problems will arise that have not been fully or even
partially addressed in this Agreement. It will be the responsibility of the
officers, the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors of the Sales
Corporation to ensure that such issues are brought to the attention of the
Parties, and to take whatever action is required to achieve resolution of
problems or to modify this Agreement to encompass additional considerations.
7-D. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SALES CORPORATION
7-D(1) The Sales Corporation will pay each Party the amount invoiced by
that Party within thirty (30) days after receiving payment from the customer
for the product, subassembly, part or service covered by the Party's invoice.
The Sales Corporation will not be liable to the Parties for the payment of such
invoices in the event and to the extent the customer does not pay the invoices
of the Sales Corporation. The Sales Corporation will undertake all reasonable
action to collect outstanding invoices.
7-D(2) The Sales Corporation and the Parties jointly will be
responsible for ensuring that all model specifications, design data,
performance data, drawings, process specifications, service bulletins, user
manuals and all other documentation relating to a given

product are properly maintained and updated in order to meet the Parties'
standards for such information, and to be able to provide the customer with
accurate information and data to which it is entitled by contract.
7-D(3) The Sales Corporation and the Parties jointly will have prime
responsibility for directing the preparation of the data and reports necessary
for certification, with tasks assigned to the Parties, so that intelligent
utilization is made of each Party's capabilities and facilities. In
particular, each Party will conduct any APU, subassembly or part testing and
will supply corresponding test data, test reports, and other supporting
technical information required for certification as agreed upon by the Parties.
7-D(4) The Sales Corporation and the Parties jointly will establish
overall production program requirements and will make integrated production
releases to each of the Parties to meet APU and spare parts and warranty
requirements and schedules. The Sales Corporation and the Parties will
establish overall production planning and configuration control (including
changes which impact form, fit, function or certification) to ensure that the
activities of each Party and the parts each produces meet customer
requirements. However, detailed production planning and configuration control
will be performed by each Party for the parts it provides consistent with its
overall production planning and configuration control.

their respective counsel, accountants and other representatives, reasonable
access to all properties, books, records and other documents of the Sales
Corporation and will furnish to each of the Parties such information concerning
the Sales Corporation and copies of such documents as each of the Parties may
reasonably request. Any such request for access, information or copies will be
made only to the Chairman of the Sales Corporation. Each Party will be
entitled, at its own expense, to have a firm of independent certified public
accountants designated by it review the annual audit of the Sales Corporation.
7-E. SPARE PARTS
Subject to Section 5-B. above, each Party will produce those spare parts
that are of the same drawing number as the parts the Party manufactured and
supplied for the complete APU products sold by the Sales Corporation.
7-F. EXTERNAL PARTICIPATION
Either Party may arrange for participation of others in the performance of
its portion of any APU program, taking full responsibility for such
participation, or both Parties may arrange for participation of others in
business activities of the Sales Corporation, for example, in a country where
local participation may be required. In the event local participation is
required in a country, the Parties will determine the manner in which such
requirements will be satisfied, and will share equally the burden and/or cost

ARTICLE VIII - WITHDRAWAL OF A PARTY FROM APU PROGRAMS
8-A. Neither Party will withdraw from any APU program for Commercial Aircraft
which is subject to this Agreement, so long as the Sales Corporation has a
commitment outstanding to a customer to supply or support APUs under such
program, including any proposal by the Sales
<PAGE> 46
-44-
Corporation with respect to the supplying of APUs covered by such program,
unless a mutually acceptable arrangement can be established between the
Parties.
8-B. Neither Party will withdraw from any APU program subject to this Agreement
for the purpose of developing a competitive APU. Entering into a sales
commitment for a Commercial Aircraft for a competitive APU within five (5)
years from the effective date of withdrawal will be presumptive evidence of a
purpose to develop a competitive APU on the date of withdrawal. A "competitive
APU" is defined as an APU which is directly competitive with an APU program for
Commercial Aircraft of the Sales Corporation which was covered by this
Agreement prior to a Party's withdrawal.
8-C. As provided in Paragraph 8-A. above, neither Party can withdraw unless a
mutual agreement has been reached, which, in the event the non- withdrawing
Party wishes to continue the APU program, includes, but is not limited to, the
following:
8-C(1) The withdrawing Party being obligated to continue its portion of
the APU program for a reasonable time to permit transition of the entire APU
program to the continuing Party. The reasonable cost of such continuation by
the withdrawing Party will be reimbursed by the continuing Party.
<PAGE> 47
-45-
8-C(2) Rights of the continuing Party under Article XII (Technical
Information and Data) and XV (Inventions), will continue to the extent
reasonably necessary to permit its continuation of the APU program (including
the right to work with and sublicense others). Such rights are limited,
however, to use on said continuing program and subject to any governmental
restrictions, on a non-exclusive, worldwide basis (to the extent the
withdrawing Party has the right to do so) for the duration of the program by
the continuing Party, without payment of a royalty.
8-C(3) The continuing Party may request and the withdrawing Party will
have agreed to provide such technical assistance as is reasonably requested by
such continuing Party to permit continuation of the program by the continuing
Party, and the orderly transition to the continuing Party of development and
manufacturing activities as may be reasonably desired by the continuing Party,
all for fair and reasonable compensation (which will not include any recovery
of development expense) to the withdrawing Party.
8-C(4) Should the continuing Party desire to transfer development or
manufacturing resources of the withdrawing Party to its facilities and the
withdrawing Party in its sole discretion agrees to such transfer, then the
withdrawing Party will be obligated to make such transfer only if the Parties
have reached agreement upon the compensation to be paid to the withdrawing
Party therefor. Fair and reasonable compensation for same (not to include
recovery of any development expense previously incurred) will be negotiated.
<PAGE> 48
-46-
8-C(5) The provisions of Paragraphs B-C(2), 8-C(3) and 8-C(4) above are
all subject to any applicable government restrictions.
8-D. If either Party as provided in this Article VIII withdraws from an APU
program and no other program is active, this Agreement without further action
by either Party will be deemed terminated and the Parties agree to use their
best efforts to reach an equitable settlement of all matters outstanding under
this Agreement, with each Party bearing its own costs and expenses. In the
event a Party withdraws from this Agreement, it agrees to sell its shares of
stock of the Sales Corporation to the other Party as provided in Paragraph
2-E(2)(b) of this Agreement. If such other Party does not desire to acquire
such shares, the withdrawing Party will hold such shares pending dissolution of
the Sales Corporation.
ARTICLE IX - LIABILITIES TO PARTIES
9-A. Any and all liabilities, damages, penalties and expenses (including, but
not limited to, legal fees and expenses) arising out of any claim(s) (as

9-E. SUNDSTRAND and TEC will each be fully and independently responsible for
all commitments to third parties (other than the Sales Corporation and its
customers) entered into incident to the performance of its respective portion
of APU programs including, but not limited to, contracts with vendors.
ARTICLE X - DISPUTES
10-A. The Parties and the Sales Corporation will endeavor in good faith to
mutually resolve any disputes between them involving the interpretation,
application or performance of this Agreement. Any such dispute which cannot be
resolved by the personnel immediately involved will be referred to the heads of
the commercial, financial or technical services, as the case may be, of the
Parties for resolution, or if no resolution, for clear definition of the issue.
The issue so defined will be referred in writing to the managements of

direction of the Sales Corporation due to the failure or imminent failure of
the other to carry out its responsibilities (whether or not excused) incident
to enabling the Sales Corporation to meet a third party customer commitment,
after reasonable notice, will be reimbursed by the other. If any such failure
or imminent failure cannot be fairly and clearly assigned to a single Party,
the resulting expense will be borne equally by SUNDSTRAND and TEC.

ARTICLE XIV - PATENT INDEMNITY
14-A. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, SUNDSTRAND
and TEC agree that any expenses (including, but not limited to, legal fees and
expenses), costs, damages or liability arising out of any claim, suit or
proceeding brought against the Sales Corporation or its customers, so far as
based on any claim that any APU, subassembly or part or the manufacture, sale
or normal use of such APU, subassembly or part by the Sales Corporation, or the
use of such APU, subassembly or part by a customer, infringes any patent
granted in any country, will be shared equally by the Parties, but if
circumstances clearly indicate that either SUNDSTRAND or TEC is independently
responsible for design of an APU, subassembly or part giving rise to a
successful infringement claim, then it will be liable to the Sales Corporation
and the other Party for all expenses, costs, damages and liability arising from
such infringement.
14-B. SUNDSTRAND and TEC further agree that the primary responsibility with
respect to the handling of any such claim, suit or proceeding will be as
mutually agreed by the Parties.
<PAGE> 58
-56-
SUNDSTRAND and TEC will cooperate fully in such defense and will make all
reasonable efforts to supply all information and records necessary for the
defense of any such claim, suit or proceeding. All reasonable out of pocket
expenses associated with handling any such claim, suit or proceeding will be
included in determining the equal shares to be borne by the Parties as set
forth in 14-A. above.
14-C. With respect to APU subassemblies or parts not designed by SUNDSTRAND
or TEC, each Party will endeavor to obtain patent indemnities from its
suppliers which will apply to SUNDSTRAND, TEC, the Sales Corporation and its
customers and users.
ARTICLE XV - INVENTIONS
15-A. Any inventions made solely by employees of SUNDSTRAND and any
resulting patents will be and remain the property of SUNDSTRAND, and any
inventions made solely by employees of TEC and any resulting patents will be
and remain the property of TEC.
15-B. Any invention that is made jointly by SUNDSTRAND employees and TEC
employees and any resulting patent will be and become the property of the Party
responsible for the development to which it relates and will be made available
to both SUNDSTRAND and TEC and the Sales Corporation without additional cost.
Each Party will have the right to practice or have practiced for it any such
invention, without prior consultation with, or payment of any fee or charge to,
the other Party, but only for use in connection with this Agreement. Each
Party will
<PAGE> 59
-57-
be responsible for assuring that its respective employees have signed
appropriate patent agreements capable of securing the invention rights to the
respective Parties as set forth above. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing
by the Parties, the cost of obtaining and maintaining any such patent and any
license income therefrom will be that of the owning Party. Each Party will
have the right to decline to participate in the cost of obtaining or
maintaining any patent on such joint inventions and, in such event, the other
Party may do so and any license income from such patent will be the property of
the Party paying the cost of obtaining and maintaining such patent.
15-C. SUNDSTRAND and TEC agree not to assert any claim of patent
infringement against each other, each other's vendors or subcontractors, or the
Sales Corporation, in connection with the performance of any APU program under
this Agreement.
15-D. Any compensation which may be due an employee in connection with any
invention or patent, whether by agreement, statute, regulation or otherwise,

ARTICLE XVI - GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
16-A. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTIONS
16-A(1) The Parties believe that the APUs to be sold by the Sales
Corporation and the associated APU technology fall within the scope or
regulations applicable to transfer of technology imposed by the U.S. and/or
French government, but that arrangements can be made
<PAGE> 60
-58-
for appropriate transfer of technology as contemplated in the Technology
Exchange Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
16-A(2) In the event that the U.S. and/or French government establishes
bona fide restrictions on the transfer of technology contemplated under this
Agreement, the Parties will endeavor to resolve any problems resulting from
such restrictions in an expeditious and mutually beneficial manner, such
resolution to be developed between the Parties and the respective governments
without involving any "third party" arbitration.
16-A(3) Should any government restrictions be imposed on the transfer of
technology by either or both Parties, each Party agrees to notify the other
Party when and if such restrictions are imposed, modified, supplanted or
terminated, and any appropriate adjustments will be made in the management of
the programs by the Parties.
16-B. This Agreement is subject to all the laws and regulations, and
administrative acts, now or hereafter in effect, of the U.S. and French
government, including, without limitation, those relating to the exportation
and re-exportation of technical information and data or products, including
those relating to environmental requirements, such as the U.S. Environmental
Protection Act (EPA), and those relating to safety requirements, such as the
U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). The Parties agree that each
will use its best efforts to secure any licenses and permits as may now or
hereafter be required by its government in connection with the
<PAGE> 61
-59-
performance of its obligations under this Agreement, but this Agreement will
not be deemed to require any performance on the part of either Party which
cannot lawfully be done pursuant to the laws, regulations and acts referred to
above.
16-C. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article XVI, if in
compliance with said provisions either Party will be unable to perform a
material obligation set forth in this Agreement, the Parties agree they will
promptly enter into negotiations with each other to seek a suitable solution,
which solution will be equitable to both Parties.
ARTICLE XVII - EXPORT/IMPORT AUTHORIZATIONS
17-A. The exporter in the case of exports and the importer in the case of
imports will be responsible for obtaining any necessary export licenses, import
licenses, or other governmental authorizations required in connection with any
export or import, as the case may be, under this Agreement. TEC and SUNDSTRAND
will cooperate with each other in securing any such authorizations. Any
governmental administrative fees or charges in connection with such
authorizations will be the responsibility of the Party seeking the
authorizations.
17-B. In all other cases, each Party will be responsible for obtaining and
bearing the cost of any necessary governmental authorizations required in
connection with its performance under this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVIII - APPLICABLE LAW
This Agreement will be construed, interpreted and applied in accordance
with the law of the State of New York, U.S.A. However, Delaware law will apply
to the extent required under such law to create and maintain the identity and
existence of the Sales Corporation, and local law will apply to the extent
required under such law to create and maintain the identity and existence of
any sales corporation in another country.
ARTICLE XIX - SEVERABILITY
If any material provision of this Agreement, as it may be amended, is
determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court or tribunal of competent
jurisdiction, then such provision will be deemed to be severed from this
Agreement and every other provision of this Agreement will remain in full force
and effect. However, the Parties will in good faith use their best efforts to
mutually agree on a new agreement which, as nearly as possible, will equitably
reflect the basic intent and objectives of this Agreement.
ARTICLE XX - EFFECTIVE DATE
This Agreement will become effective upon the execution by TEC and
SUNDSTRAND.
ARTICLE XXI - OBLIGATIONS SURVIVING EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION

hereto or which thereafter may accrue in respect of any act or omission prior
to such expiration or termination, nor will any such expiration or termination
hereof affect in any way the survival of any right, duty or obligation of
either Party hereto which is expressly stated elsewhere in this Agreement to
survive expiration or termination hereof.

by written notice to the other Party within thirty (30) days following
termination. Upon receipt of such written notice of election, the other Party
may either (i) cooperate fully in effecting the dissolution and liquidation of
the Sales Corporation under applicable law, or (ii) elect to purchase the
shares of stock of the Sales Corporation owned by the terminating Party, at the
appraisal value thereof as determined by a valuation expert selected in

any of the provisions hereof will in no way affect the validity of this
Agreement or any part thereof, or the right thereafter to enforce each and
every such provision. The waiver of an express condition or requirement of
this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply
with such provision, condition or requirement.
ARTICLE XXIV - ASSIGNMENT

either Party in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the other
except that each Party may assign all or any portion of its performance

TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
Sundstrand Corporation continues to adjust its businesses to meet constantly
changing market conditions. The benefit of past cost reductions in our
Industrial segment was readily apparent in the 1994 results. Industrial
operating margins reached 16 percent on a small volume increase. The
well-publicized reductions in defense spending as well as the current reduced
rate of new aircraft acquisitions by world airlines continue to impact the
Aerospace segment of Sundstrand. We are continuing to restructure this
business so that it also will produce desired operating margins with the
anticipated recovery in commercial aerospace sales volume.
Sales in 1994 of $1,372.7 million were flat compared with the prior
year primarily as a result of declining military sales. The Company's incoming
orders of $1,437.1 million, however, compared favorably with 1993, with total
unfilled orders of $746.8 million at year-end 1994 up about 9 percent from
year-end 1993. Net earnings totaled $95.6 million, or $2.92 per share,
compared with $90.7 million, or $2.56 per share, earned from continuing
operations in 1993. Temporary manufacturing inefficiencies associated with
production realignments within the Aerospace segment substantially reduced
full-year operating profit, but the impact on earnings per share was more than
offset by the recovery of our Industrial business and the repurchase of 1.8
million of the Company's shares during the year. Our operations generated cash
flow after capital expenditures totaling $55.9 million.
We continue to follow our plan of optimally deploying the substantial
cash generated by our strong franchises in the Aerospace and Industrial
businesses. This plan encompasses a balance between acquisitions, share
repurchases, debt retirement, and dividends. During 1994, we did not conclude
any major acquisitions although we continued to evaluate opportunities in
related aerospace and industrial fields. We have stringent criteria for
Sundstrand's portfolio of businesses and products to assure that shareholder
value is maximized. The Milton Roy subsidiary completed two small but
strategic product acquisitions which made positive contributions to earnings in
the first year.
We made substantial progress during 1994 in advancing the Company's
share buyback program. During the year, nearly $80 million was returned to our
shareholders as we acquired an additional 5 percent of the Company's
outstanding shares. The repurchases were made opportunistically throughout the
year, with the timing based on the Company's capitalization position, overall
cash flow, the outlook for acquisition opportunities, and the prevailing stock
price. Dividends of $39.1 million also were paid during the year. Since our
Board of Directors authorized the purchase of 10 million shares in 1993, we
have repurchased a total of 5 million shares for about $210 million. Our
success in returning cash to shareholders via share repurchase demonstrates our
intention to provide ongoing shareholder value when attractive external growth
opportunities are not available. The continuing repurchase of Company shares
over time remains an integral part of Sundstrand's shareholder value
enhancement strategy.
Our Industrial business segment had an excellent year in 1994, with
each of our three businesses showing improvement. Sales of $663.4 million in
1994 were up 5 percent from the 1993 level of $629.5 million. Incoming orders
at $701.0 million were up 12 percent compared with 1993. Unfilled orders
totaled $147.8 million at year-end 1994. Particularly gratifying was the
increase in operating profit as a percentage of sales from 13.4 percent in 1993
to 16.0 percent in 1994. The improvement reflected the benefits of the cost
reductions accomplished during the past several years as well as our strong
market positions. The substantial operating leverage of the Industrial
businesses was evident in 1994 with incremental operating profit rates of over
40 percent realized in a number of our businesses. The outlook for 1995 is to
record increased orders, sales, and profits again.

This optimism is based on the improving operating rates at our customers'
plants, the expansion of our businesses into the Asia-Pacific region, and our
improved capability to compete in world markets. Incremental operating margins
for the Industrial businesses, however, will be lower in 1995 than experienced
in 1994, reflecting the segment's investments for international expansion, new
products, and training to enhance long-term strategic market positions.
The results within the Aerospace segment were not as strong as in the
Industrial segment. Our Aerospace operations continued to suffer from the
effects of the decline in military spending and the current reduced rate of new
aircraft acquisitions by world airlines. Military sales of $277.4 million in
1994 were down $42.0 million or 13 percent compared with 1993. Commercial
sales of $431.9 million in 1994 were flat compared with the $434.2 million
achieved in 1993. Incoming orders were $736.1 million during the year which
resulted in a backlog of $599.0 million at year-end. The decline in Aerospace
sales and the delay in achieving the full manufacturing efficiency benefits of
the Aerospace restructuring actions taken in 1993 contributed to weaker than
anticipated operating margins in 1994. Operating margins for the full year
1994 at 12.4 percent were down 1.7 percentage points compared with the 14.1
percent achieved in 1993. It became evident during the fourth quarter that,
despite the positive steps taken to lower costs, the overhead structure of the
Aerospace segment, including plant capacity and engineering resources, needed
further examination, given the winddown of significant customer-funded
development programs. Based on this review, we concluded in February 1995 that
additional downsizing of the Aerospace business was required.
As announced, steps currently are underway to reduce Aerospace plant
capacity with the closure of the Lima, Ohio, facility. The Aerospace
organization also is being further streamlined to eliminate product divisions
and to intensify customer focus. When the restructuring actions are completed
in 1996, we believe the Aerospace segment will have a cost structure in line
with our view of future sales and expected manufacturing load levels. The
Company also intends to write down the assets of two non-core product lines.
The restructuring plan will result in a first quarter pretax charge of $58
million. The anticipated net effects of additional non-accrued expenses,
restructuring savings, and related nonrecurring gains are a pretax loss of
approximately $7 million in 1995 and pretax earnings of approximately $20
million in 1996. The restructuring is expected to reduce cash flow by about
$16 million in 1995 and provide a cash flow benefit of about $8 million in
1996. As was the case in 1993 and 1994, rightsizing remains a key element of
our business strategy, and we intend to remain aggressive in lowering our cost
structure when market conditions dictate. An improving market in 1996 and 1997
should produce substantial financial benefits as sales recover not dissimilar
to those we are now seeing within our Industrial operations.
The Company had a change in leadership during the year with Don O'Hare
assuming the role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at the end of the
third quarter. Don helped guide the Company as its Chairman from 1989 to 1991
and continued his association as a Board member and consultant after his
retirement. No immediate change in business strategy is anticipated as a
result of this change in management. Sundstrand has highly capable,
well-regarded management in place that will provide operational support and
direction while the Board oversees the selection of a new CEO. Sundstrand's
overriding objective remains the long-term growth of shareholder value.
In January 1995, the Board of Directors elected Berger G. "Bud" Wallin
as a member of the Board and as Executive Vice President for Special Projects.
Bud has made significant contributions to Sundstrand during his 40 years of
service, most recently as chief

served as President of Milton Roy Company since 1991.
In closing, we would like to acknowledge and thank Harry Stonecipher
for the many contributions he made during his tenure as Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Sundstrand. We wish him well in his new role as
President and Chief Executive Officer of McDonnell Douglas Corporation.
We especially want to acknowledge and thank our employees for their
diligence and dedication in spite of the stress resulting from the
restructuring projects we have initiated. Although difficult, these actions
are necessary to posture Sundstrand for long-term earnings growth.
In addition, we thank our shareholders, customers, and suppliers for
their continued support.

GROWTH IN INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
More than one third of Sundstrand's sales in 1994 were generated in markets
outside the United States. These markets will produce a significant portion of
our future growth. We expect the Asia-Pacific region to be particularly
important.
In 1994, we took important steps to expand our position in world
markets. These included the establishment of Sundstrand Asia Pacific and the
appointment of Ng Pock Too to head this Singapore-based operation. Mr. Ng was
formerly the Group President of the Sembawang Group of Companies, a Singapore
company active in ship repair, ship building, offshore oil and gas engineering,
environmental engineering, maritime services, and industrial manufacturing and
services. Mr. Ng, in conjunction with our operating businesses, has
responsibility for formulating strategy and identifying marketing opportunities
for our business growth in the region.
AEROSPACE
Airline revenue passenger miles (RPMs) should grow by more than 5 percent
annually through the end of the decade, with growth in the Far East closer to
10 percent. In 1990, about 30 percent of the total worldwide RPMs occurred in
the Asia-Pacific region. By the year 2000, that is expected to grow to about
40 percent.
In 1994, we established a relationship with Sembawang Aviation to
promote Sundstrand's aerospace interests in the Asia-Pacific region. Sembawang
will market overhaul and repair services throughout the region. Additionally,
in China, Sembawang will help market Sundstrand equipment and represent
Auxiliary Power International Corporation (APIC), our commercial auxiliary
power unit joint venture with Labinal. This relationship will augment
Sundstrand's existing global coverage provided through customer service centers
in the United States, France, and Singapore, and through its joint venture with
Teijin Seiki in Japan.
INDUSTRIAL
Our Industrial units launched a number of initiatives during the year. Each of
our Industrial businesses now has a sales office in Shanghai. We also have
established a business development relationship with China Industrial
Engineering Consulting Corporation (CIECC).
Sullair formed a joint venture in Shenzhen, China, with China Nanshan
Development Company and Sembawang Industrial for the manufacture and sale of
industrial compressors. For the past several years, Sullair has been
increasing the number of compressors sold through local distributors to
customers in the emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific region.
Falk completed a feasibility study for a proposed joint venture to
manufacture power transmission equipment in Indonesia, and opened additional
sales offices in Australia. Although Falk sold a majority interest in its
Brazilian operation, Falk expects to maintain a strong presence in South
America through direct sales, distributors, and a licensee.
Milton Roy acquired HMD Group Limited and the business of The Kontro
Company, Inc. (HMD-Kontro) in 1994 which provided a United Kingdom base for
expansion of existing sealless pump technology and an entree into the
international sanitary pump market. Milton Roy, through its Fluid Handling
division, was particularly successful in obtaining new orders for the
fertilizer industry in China and India.
In all of its businesses, Sundstrand continues to explore the most
effective way of entering the most promising growth markets.

MARKET REVIEW
In an average year, we would expect airlines to take delivery of approximately
600 large commercial aircraft. From the mid-1980s through the early 1990s,
however, airlines competed vigorously to purchase new aircraft with the
expectation of continued rapid growth in passenger demand. This activity led
to deliveries peaking near 750 aircraft in 1992. The surge in deliveries,
which was coincident with a reduction in RPM growth, led to a rapid decline in
new aircraft orders, with deliveries falling to approximately 430 aircraft in
1994. Large aircraft deliveries are expected to reach the bottom of this cycle
in 1995 and begin growing again in 1996. The new aircraft being ordered are
needed to accommodate the increasing traffic and to replace aging aircraft and
those that do not meet the latest noise standards.
Further growth in commercial aerospace is being generated by the
rapidly growing regional aircraft market, which reached its low point in 1994.
The popularity of the small commercial jet aircraft is related to their
passenger comfort and speed. Turboprops have low operating costs on shorter
routes and are expanding the total travel market.
Over the longer term, the potential for the greatest percentage growth
in commercial aerospace is in the world's emerging economies. The Asia-Pacific
region is growing at a faster rate than any other, and route expansion is
limited only by capacity and infrastructure development. As these countries
continue their industrialization, their large unserved populations will
generate ongoing increases in demand. An improving economic climate should
contribute to resumed growth in the underserved markets in the Commonwealth of
Independent States and Eastern Europe as well.
In our military markets, sales declined as expected in 1994. We
foresee continued erosion of demand in this market as armed forces worldwide
are reduced as a result of the improving political environment. We also are in
the process of reducing our plant capacity in order to become more efficient in
the face of declining military sales and productivity improvements in
manufacturing. Our military programs, however, will remain important. Our
advanced technology will continue to assist our military customers in
maximizing the effectiveness of each system and person deployed.
In 1994, we continued to refine the Aerospace organization to make it
more responsive to customer needs as well as to posture it for improved
profitability. This process will continue as we adapt to changes in the
business and customer mix.
For future aircraft, space, and defense programs we have organized our
business development team for improved capability in the conception, design,
and development of accessory systems. This organization brings applied
research, preliminary systems development, and marketing functions together for
focused, integrated product development responses to our customers' emerging
requirements. We undertook this reorganization both to improve profitability
in our current programs and to prepare to provide the increased systems
capability our customers are looking for in their new projects.
These changes have enabled us to become more customer focused than
product oriented. Our goal is to have completely satisfied customers --
commercial and military, OEMs and operators.

ELECTRIC POWER GENERATING SYSTEMS
Sundstrand is the world's leading supplier of electric power generating systems
for aircraft, with systems on almost all Boeing, Airbus, McDonnell Douglas, and
Fokker transports; regional jets; and many military aircraft. Emphasis is
placed on designing the right system for each aircraft, whether it uses
hydromechanical, power electronics, high-voltage DC, or a hybrid system
incorporating more than one of these technologies.
As a total system supplier, Sundstrand increasingly assumes
responsibility for the complete electrical system, including primary, secondary
and backup power, and control and test equipment. While the major commercial
aircraft manufacturers and established world airlines represent the largest and
most stable portion of the Company's electric power business, new programs and
emerging markets represent the greatest opportunity for growth.
1994 was a year of significant activity for the major aircraft
manufacturers. Airbus Industrie introduced its A330 and A340 aircraft to a
growing number of world airline customers. These newer models employ
Sundstrand electric power generating systems as do the Airbus A300, A310, and
A320. McDonnell Douglas announced the selection of Sundstrand as the electric
power system supplier on its proposed MD-95 aircraft. This follows the MD-80
and MD-11 on which Sundstrand systems are used. Also, Boeing selected the
Sundstrand electric power system for its new 737-700 and 737-800. This
decision means that Sundstrand will remain the exclusive supplier for all
Boeing aircraft in production, including the 777 which completed first flight
tests in 1994.
For most of these programs, airlines in emerging economic regions are
providing Sundstrand with additional growth. New airlines taking delivery of
aircraft using Sundstrand systems typically purchase spare end items and
replacement parts to maintain their fleets. In addition, they rely on
Sundstrand to provide training in basic maintenance operations as well as unit
replacements.
Among the manufacturers of smaller aircraft with Sundstrand electric
power systems, Fokker delivered the first F-70 regional jet in 1994. The
Canadair Regional Jet, introduced in 1993, continued to gain acceptance with
short-haul operators, and Canadair selected the Sundstrand electric power
generating system for the new CL-604 business jet. The Gulfstream V is being
developed with a Sundstrand system as well.
Military program milestones in 1994 included the development of the
electric power system for the 767 AWACS aircraft, and the selection of
Sundstrand as a supplier of electric power systems on the EFA 2000 Eurofighter.
The Korean assembled F-16 also will carry a Sundstrand electric power system.
Development work continues on electric power systems for the Comanche
helicopter, F-22 Advanced Tactical Fighter, and V-22 tilt rotor aircraft.

MECHANICAL AND FLUID SYSTEMS
In addition to its flagship electric power business, Sundstrand Aerospace
produces three other aircraft product lines--actuation, secondary/emergency
power, and fluid systems--from its headquarters in Rockford, Illinois, as well
as systems for missile and space applications and undersea propulsion.
Actuation systems incorporate mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical
technologies for the movement and positioning of aircraft flight control
surfaces such as flaps, slats, and stabilizers. Some of the Company's largest
and most successful actuation system programs have been for military
applications. As the military market continues to decline, Sundstrand
continues to pursue actuation opportunities in commercial aircraft and engine
programs. Recent program wins include the Gulfstream V horizontal stabilizer
and flaps, and, in partnership with Sextant Avionique and Parker Bertea, the
flight control actuation systems for the Canadair Global Express executive jet.
Sundstrand also was selected to provide the propeller pitch actuation system
for the Pratt & Whitney Advanced Ducted Propeller next-generation engine.
Secondary and emergency power systems include aircraft accessory
drives and engine starting systems along with ram air turbines (RATs) and
air-driven generators (ADGs) that provide emergency hydraulic or electric
power. Current secondary power programs include the F-16 engine start system,
the B-2 aircraft-mounted accessory drive gearbox, and the gearboxes for
auxiliary power units (APUs) marketed by Sundstrand Power Systems and the APIC
joint venture. Aircraft using Sundstrand emergency RATs and ADGs include
several Airbus and Boeing commercial transports that are in ongoing production,
as well as newer programs like the Airbus A321/A319, Canadair Global Express,
Canadair Challenger CL-604, and Mc Donnell Douglas C-17 military transport.
Sundstrand continues to be a major manufacturer of main fuel pumps for
commercial turbofan engines such as the General Electric CF6-80 series and the
Pratt & Whitney 2037. Fuel boost and override/jettison pumps for aircraft such
as the Boeing 767 continue as production programs. A new centrifugal main fuel
pump for the Pratt & Whitney F-119 engine, initially slated for the F-22
Advanced Tactical Fighter, is a simple, lightweight design that will form the
basis for the next generation of military and commercial engine fuel pumps. In
1993, Sundstrand was selected to provide the main fuel pump, which is
integrated into a Hamilton Standard fuel control module, for the Pratt &
Whitney Canada PW500 series medium-size turbofan engine. Pratt & Whitney
Canada selected Sundstrand in 1994 to replace the previous supplier of the fuel
pump on the PW206 turboshaft engine. In addition, Sundstrand was recently
selected as the lube and scavenge pump supplier for the C-17 and the gas-
powered turbine engine supplier for the British Royal Navy's Spearfish torpedo.

AUXILIARY POWER UNITS
From its facilities in San Diego, California, Sundstrand Aerospace produces
auxiliary power units (APUs), fans, compressors, and vapor cycle cooling
systems for a wide variety of commercial and military applications. APIC, a
joint venture between Sundstrand and Labinal S.A. of France, is responsible for
marketing Sundstrand's APS 2000 APU and Labinal's APS 3200 series of APUs for
commercial transports manufactured by Airbus, Boeing, and McDonnell Douglas.
Since the introduction in 1991 of the APIC APS 2000 APU for the Boeing
737, the APU has gained worldwide market acceptance and is now used by more
than 25 airlines. With over 1.5 million hours of operational experience, the
APS 2000 APU is demonstrating product performance and reliability among the
world's best. The APS 2000 APU was selected in 1994 as the APU for the
proposed McDonnell Douglas MD-95 twin-engine aircraft. The APIC APS 3200 APU,
offered on the Airbus A319, A320, and A321 aircraft, entered service in 1994
with current APS 2000 customers Lufthansa, United Airlines, Air France, and
Swissair.
The Sundstrand APS 1000 APU family in 1994 expanded its presence in
the growing worldwide regional aircraft market. The first APU for installation
on the N250 prototype aircraft was delivered to IPTN in Indonesia, while AVRO
International Jetliner introduced the APS 1000 APU into revenue service with
deliveries of its new RJ family of regional jets to Air Malta, Lufthansa
Cityline, and Crossair. The first Saab 2000 Jetprop also was placed into
revenue service at Crossair with the APS 1000 APU.
The Sundstrand APS 500 will be installed in the Embraer 145 commuter
aircraft in 1995, in an uprated power version designed to provide full market
coverage up to the lower end of the APS 1000 power rating. On the smaller end
of the product line, initial deliveries were made in 1994 for the Gemini APU's
first business jet application, the Lear 60.
Sundstrand had several notable successes as a supplier of highly
reliable aerospace fans in 1994. These wins include new platforms such as the
Canadair Global Express executive jet and McDonnell Douglas MD-95 as well as
retrofit and future original equipment opportunities for the Airbus
A319/A320/A321 family and the MD-90 and MD-11 aircraft.
In 1994, Sundstrand was awarded a significant contract by the Advanced
Research Project Agency to build and test a small expendable turbojet engine
applying technology which has been developed by Sundstrand over the past few
years. This engine is intended to power next-generation remotely piloted
vehicles.
Sundstrand continued to build on its military auxiliary power market
base with the continued development of a new APU on the V-22 tilt rotor
aircraft. Sales of military equipment such as the F-16 engine start system,
KC-135R APU, CH-53 APU, and Blackhawk APU continued to provide a sound business
base in 1994.

MARKET REVIEW
The Company's Industrial businesses offer a wide variety of products ranging
from small metering pumps to some of the world's largest ring gears, and serve
a diverse group of basic industries worldwide. These industries are involved
primarily in raw material processing, bulk material handling, direct
manufacturing, and construction. Their operations are tied closely to the
level of general economic activity.
In the Industrial segment's principal markets, 1994 marked the
beginning of economic recovery. The North American market improved slowly but
steadily throughout the year, while Europe began to recover late in the year.
Weak oil prices limited growth in the worldwide petrochemical and hydrocarbon
processing industries. Markets in Asia and the Pacific Rim continued to grow
at the fastest rate as emerging economies developed their infrastructures.
While the overall market was improving, each of the Industrial
businesses participated in that improvement to a different degree in 1994. For
Milton Roy, total sales declined slightly (excluding the HMD-Kontro
acquisition) reflecting the weakness in its instruments and European metering
pump businesses. HMD-Kontro was acquired in March 1994, and added a new range
of products to Milton Roy's sealless pump business. Activity remained strong
in the fertilizer industry in China and India, which boosted sales for the
Fluid Handling division's European operation. Increasing demand and greater
market penetration boosted sales at the Liquid Metronics and Hartell divisions.
Through the first half of 1994, Falk's custom-engineered products
generated most of its sales growth, reflecting the improving economy and the
resulting pickup in capital expansion projects. Worldwide, Falk experienced
increasing activity in Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region. In the
second half of the year, Falk's sales of standard products increased,
consistent with a general economic recovery. These sales were more evenly
distributed geographically throughout Falk's markets.
In the markets served by Sullair, North and South America experienced
steady growth throughout 1994 and Europe began to improve in the second half of
the year, a pattern that also reflected the improving economic conditions. The
markets in China and the Pacific Rim have begun to contribute to Sullair's
growth and provide a significant opportunity for expanding Sullair's business
over the long term.
The anticipated improvement in the world's economies, supported by
improving utilization rates at customer facilities, should benefit most of our
Industrial businesses, although we expect continued weakness in the petroleum
industry. Asia and the Pacific Rim will continue to offer the greatest overall
long-term growth potential, while Latin America, Australia, and New Zealand are
expected to generate additional growth for some products.
To improve their competitiveness in the world markets, the Industrial
businesses continue to emphasize quality and productivity throughout their
operations. All of the major manufacturing facilities have earned ISO 9000
certification, and efficiency improvements made over the past few years are
generating strong incremental operating profits during the economic recovery.

PUMPS AND ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTS
Milton Roy Company, based in Arvada, Colorado, is a manufacturer of
high-quality metering pumps, centrifugal pumps and compressors, and analytical
instruments.
The Fluid Handling division manufactures engineered pumps,
compressors, and blowers for the hydrocarbon and chemical processing, pulp and
paper, water treatment, electric power, and sanitary processing industries
worldwide. Fluid Handling serves customers worldwide through its operations in
the United States and Europe. In addition, its Japanese joint venture, Nikkiso
Sundstrand, serves the Asian market. The 1994 acquisition of HMD-Kontro
provides the division with a significant market share increase in the sealless
pump industry and an entree to the sanitary pump market. In a milestone
project completed in 1994, the Fluid Handling division shipped the largest
pumping system it has ever manufactured. The unit was delivered to the North
Slope oil fields in Alaska. An additional major project initiated in 1994
includes 14 sophisticated pump and compressor systems for a synthetic fiber
manufacturing plant in India.
Metering pumps are manufactured by three of the six Milton Roy
divisions. These pumps typically are applied in water conditioning, waste
water treatment, and chemical applications. The Flow Control division produces
metering pumps for the North and South American and Far Eastern markets. The
emerging economies and associated infrastructure development of the Far East
have provided the Flow Control division with an expanding market for its
well-recognized products. Dosapro Milton Roy, a manufacturer of similar
metering pumps, serves the markets of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
Additionally, the large scale European engineering contractor base provides
Dosapro with a worldwide conduit for its products. Liquid Metronics produces
low flow electronic metering pumps, programmable digital pump controllers, and
pH monitoring systems principally used in small industrial water treatment
applications.
The Hartell unit produces low-cost pumps for the laundry, beverage, and
ice machine industries.
The Milton Roy Instruments division manufactures precision ruled and
holographic gratings and spectroscopic instruments for the industrial, life
science, and educational markets in the United States, Europe, and the Far and
Middle East. Milton Roy's divisions actively participate in the international
marketplace.
In addition to the access provided by multinational facilities
and joint ventures, Milton Roy serves international customers from offices in
Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Brussels, Milan, Frankfurt, London,
Madrid, and Paris.

MECHANICAL POWER TRANSMISSION EQUIPMENT
The Falk Corporation is an established global supplier to basic industries such
as mining, metal processing, wood and paper processing, construction and
cement, chemical processing, utilities, transportation, food processing, and a
variety of other smaller markets.
Falk's products include a broad line of standard enclosed gear drives
and rotating shaft couplings as well as custom-engineered enclosed gear drives,
large open gear sets, large alloy steel castings, and main propulsion marine
drives.
A focus on quality at Falk has led to strong vertical integration of
the marketing, engineering development, and manufacturing processes. Falk
provides engineering solutions to meet customer needs, pours high-quality
castings to exacting specifications, manufactures most of its own components,
and assembles them into finished products. This top-to-bottom control allows
Falk to maintain its reputation as a quality supplier while providing
opportunities throughout the process to monitor and control costs. In
addition, manufacturing flexibility and short cycle times permit rapid
turnaround on rush projects for customers with tight deadlines.
Typical applications for the power transmission equipment manufactured
by Falk involve the physical movement of bulk materials as well as the
processing of these raw materials into finished goods. Falk's standard
enclosed gear drives and couplings frequently see use in bulk material handling
and processing operations, while the larger custom drives are used in mining,
coal, and cement industries. In 1994, Falk shipped a 43-foot diameter ring
gear for the world's largest semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mill, located at the
Escondida copper mine in northern Chile. The mill will use a small load of
metal balls in a large rotating drum to help break up large pieces of rock
bearing the copper ore.
From its operations in the United States and a joint venture in
Mexico, Falk serves well-established markets in North and South America. Falk
began an $8 million conversion of its Auburn, Alabama, facility to cellular
manufacturing during 1994, which will increase production output and
efficiency. Falk's Milwaukee facility began converting to cellular
manufacturing in 1990. Falk also put into production in 1994 a $3 million
expansion to its heat treating facilities to allow in-house carburizing and
hardening of most standard product gearing and mill pinions. Although Falk
sold a majority interest in its Brazilian operation to local management in
1994, a strong presence will be maintained in South America.
Sales efforts have been expanding in Asia and the Pacific Rim as well
as Australia. Falk, along with the other Sundstrand Industrial businesses,

In 1994, total sales were $1,372.7 million and net earnings from continuing
operations were $95.6 million, or $2.92 per share, compared with total sales of
$1,383.1 million and net earnings from continuing operations of $90.7 million,
or $2.56 per share, in 1993. Net earnings from continuing operations in 1994
included a benefit of $5.5 million from a decrease in depreciation expense.
The lower depreciation expense was due to an increase in the depreciable lives
of certain fixed assets. The change resulted from internal asset management
procedures that are designed to ensure continued compliance with government
contract accounting requirements. Net earnings in 1993 of $140.7 million
consisted of $90.7 million from continuing operations, a $55.0 million gain
from the sale of the Sundstrand Data Control division (SDC), and a $5.0 million
extraordinary loss related to the early retirement of high-cost, long-term
debt.
SALES BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
Aerospace segment sales in 1994 declined $44.3 million from 1993 to $709.3
million representing 51.7 percent of total Company sales. Military sales were
$42.0 million lower in 1994 than in 1993 with sales to both military original
equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and aftermarket customers declining more than 10
percent. Both commercial OEM and aftermarket sales were flat in 1994 compared
with 1993.
Aerospace segment sales in 1993 of $753.6 million were $86.0 million lower
than in 1992 and represented 54.5 percent of the Company's total sales.
Commercial aerospace sales decreased $82.8 million in 1993 primarily as a
result of lower shipments of electric power generating and auxiliary power
equipment to both OEM and aftermarket customers. Military sales decreased $3.2
million during 1993 due to lower OEM shipments, partially offset by higher
aftermarket sales.
The Company's electric power systems product line (Electric Power) is the
dominant product line within the Aerospace segment. This product line
accounted for 62.1 percent, 59.6 percent, and 57.0 percent of Aerospace segment
sales in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. In addition, Electric Power
contributed significantly to the profits of the Aerospace segment.
Industrial segment sales increased by $33.9 million in 1994 to $663.4
million, representing 48.3 percent of total Company sales. The increase was a
result of improved sales from each of the three Industrial businesses. The
improvement at Falk and Sullair was due to strong domestic sales resulting from
the improved U.S. economy. However, the growth in Falk's sales was offset in
part by the effect of the second quarter divestiture of Sundstrand do Brasil.
The increase in Milton Roy's sales was due to the effect of the first quarter
acquisitions of HMD Group Limited and the business of The Kontro Company, Inc.
(HMD-Kontro) partially offset by lower sales from its instruments and European
metering pump businesses.
Industrial segment sales in 1993 of $629.5 million were $10.0 million lower
than in 1992 and represented 45.5 percent of the Company's total sales. The
decrease was due primarily to the weak European economy, which resulted in
lower sales for the Company's Milton Roy and Sullair businesses.

</TABLE>
OPERATING PROFIT BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
Aerospace segment operating profit was $87.6 million in 1994 compared with
$106.3 million in 1993. The decrease was due primarily to the previously
discussed decline in military sales and the effect of short-term manufacturing
inefficiencies partially offset by lower marketing and administrative expenses
resulting from the 1992 Aerospace restructuring. The short-term manufacturing
inefficiencies, which reduced operating profit substantially in 1994, related
primarily to the transfer of production from the closed Brea and San Diego,
California, plants to other Aerospace facilities.
Aerospace segment operating profit was $106.3 million in 1993, compared
with 1992 operating profit of $90.4 million which included a charge of $32.2
million for restructuring as a result of the accelerated decline in military
sales and projected slower growth in commercial sales during the next several
years. The charge also provided for the costs associated with the integration
of the former Westinghouse Electrical Systems Division with Electric Power.
The final payments related to this restructuring were expended during 1994.
Excluding the restructuring charge, Aerospace segment operating profit in 1993
decreased $16.3 million from 1992. The decrease was due primarily to the
previously mentioned reduction in commercial OEM and aftermarket sales, largely
offset by benefits achieved through the prior year's restructuring.
Industrial segment operating profit increased by $21.9 million from 1993,
to $106.0 million in 1994. The increase was the result of improved sales and
operating margins at all three businesses, with gains at Falk and Sullair
outpacing those at Milton Roy. Falk's improvement related primarily to the
recovering U.S. economy. Sullair also benefitted from the U.S. economy as well
as from improved results from its European operations. Milton Roy benefitted
from the HMD-Kontro acquisition.
In 1993, despite the $10.0 million decline in Industrial segment sales,
operating profit increased $2.0 million to $84.1 million due to continuing cost
reductions.
Other expense in 1994 and 1993 of $4.7 million and $6.5 million,
respectively, consisted primarily of modest losses at unconsolidated
subsidiaries, premiums on forward exchange contracts which protect the
Company's earnings from foreign currency movements, and postretirement benefit
costs for retired employees of divested business units. Other expense in 1992
of $7.8 million was due primarily to monetary corrections at a Brazilian
subsidiary and premiums on forward exchange contracts.
FOREIGN OPERATIONS AND ACTIVITY
The Company has been expanding its international activity over the past several
years, in part through joint venture operations, acquisitions, and development
of foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Company enters into foreign currency
forward contracts primarily to protect specific assets and liabilities and
certain cash flow from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. As a
result, foreign exchange rate fluctuations are not expected to have a material
impact on the Company's financial condition or operations. For further
information related to foreign currency forward contracts see the Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies note on page 40 and the Financial Instruments
With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk note on pages 45 and 46.
[28]
<PAGE> 31
The Company is continuing to expand internationally, and is focusing much
of its attention on potential high growth areas, such as the Asia-Pacific
region. Entrance into these markets entails a certain amount of investment
risk, and joint ventures, such as Shenzhen Sullair Asia Industrial Co. Ltd.,
the Sullair joint venture in China, are being formed to limit the Company's
risk as well as to facilitate access to local markets. Additionally, Milton
Roy is increasing its ownership in Asia LMI Pte. Ltd., an Indian company, and
Falk is continuing negotiations related to the formation of a joint venture in
Indonesia. The Company expects long-term benefits from these new markets, but
does not expect its involvement in these joint ventures to impact its financial
condition or operations materially in the near future.
UNFILLED ORDERS
Unfilled orders at December 31, 1994, increased to $746.8 million from $682.4
million at December 31, 1993. Unfilled orders in the Industrial segment
increased by $37.6 million, reflecting the improved U.S. economy and increasing
capital project activity in emerging markets. Aerospace segment unfilled
orders increased by $26.8 million primarily as a result of increased commercial
OEM orders. The Aerospace segment backlog is expected to increase materially
in 1995. Reductions in domestic military business will be more than offset by
a large long-term order for Spearfish torpedo propulsion units. The 1995
Industrial segment backlog is expected to decrease slightly from the 1994
amount.
ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
During the first quarter of 1994, Milton Roy acquired HMD Group Limited and the
business of The Kontro Company, Inc. These acquisitions expanded Milton Roy's
position in the sealless pump markets. In the second quarter of 1994, Falk
sold an 85 percent majority interest in Sundstrand do Brasil Equipamentos S.A.,
a Brazilian subsidiary, to local management. This transaction did not have a
material impact on the earnings of the Company.
On November 12, 1993, the Company sold the assets of SDC to AlliedSignal.
For a more detailed discussion, see the Sundstrand Data Control Division Sale
note on page 41.
On May 8, 1992, the Company acquired the assets of the Westinghouse
Electrical Systems Division (ESD), a manufacturer of electric power generating
equipment for aircraft, for a purchase price of $128.0 million. Through this
acquisition, the Company expanded its share in the domestic and international
aircraft electric power generating equipment markets. The acquisition of ESD
increased Electric Power and Aerospace segment sales by $59.4 million and was
slightly dilutive to earnings in 1992. ESD's manufacturing facilities were
located in Lima, Ohio, and Santa Isabel, Puerto Rico. Funds for the
acquisition were provided by the Company's 4(2) commercial paper program.
AUXILIARY POWER UNITS
The Company's Power Systems product line includes auxiliary power units (APUs)
developed and produced for both the military and commercial aerospace markets.
The Company and Labinal, Inc. are parties to a joint venture, Auxiliary Power
International Corporation (APIC), which was formed as part of an effort to
capitalize on potential growth in certain segments of the commercial APU
market. As a result of a weak commercial airline market and costs incurred in
developing and marketing commercial APUs, the Company has experienced operating
losses related to this piece of the market.
During 1994, the Company and Labinal concluded that growth opportunities in
the near future for this piece of the commercial APU market served by APIC are
limited as a result of reduced procurement of aircraft by airlines and by
development of fewer aircraft in the future by the major airframe
manufacturers. Accordingly, the parties have initiated activities to reduce
current levels of expenditures to be consistent with the size of the available
market while continuing to provide the highest level of support to customers
consistent with the intent of being a long-term participant in this market.
These actions are expected to reduce both expenditures and operating losses in
this business.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
For a detailed discussion, see the Environmental Matters note on pages 47 and
48.
SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER
In addition to the U.S. government, as discussed in the Government Contract
Matters section on page 31, the Boeing Company is a significant customer of the
Company's Aerospace segment. Sales in 1994 to Boeing, including sales where
the U.S. government was the ultimate customer, were 7.6 percent of consolidated
sales and 14.6 percent of Aerospace segment sales. Sales in 1993 to Boeing,
including sales where the U.S. government was the ultimate customer, were 9.5
percent of consolidated sales and 17.4 percent of Aerospace segment sales.
Sales in 1992 to Boeing, including sales where the U.S. government was the
ultimate customer, were 10.0 percent of consolidated sales and 17.6 percent of
Aerospace segment sales.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital decreased to $303.3 million at December 31, 1994, from $365.3
million at December 31, 1993. The $62.0 million decrease was due primarily to
an increase in notes and accounts payable, offset in part by an increase in
cash and cash equivalents, a reduction in income taxes payable, and a reduction
in other accrued liabilities. The increase in notes payable was due primarily
to the repurchase of common stock under the stock repurchase program, the
HMD-Kontro acquisition, and the discontinuance of a cash management policy
which reduced notes payable at quarter end using available foreign cash. The
increase in cash and cash equivalents also is due to the discontinuance of this
cash management policy. The reduction in income taxes payable related
primarily to a $34.9 million first quarter 1994 payment relating to the gain on
the sale of SDC. Other accrued liabilities decreased for a number of reasons,
the largest being reductions in the 1992 Aerospace restructuring reserve and in
reserves related to the sale of SDC.
Net cash flow from operating activities in 1994 was $108.4 million, a
$133.4 million decrease from 1993. The decrease was due primarily to changes
in accounts receivable and inventory balances, which generated $6.3 million of
cash flow during 1994, compared with $81.8 million in 1993, and the previously
mentioned $34.9 million tax payment related to the gain on the sale of SDC.
Net cash flow from operating activities in 1993 was $241.8 million, an
increase of $11.3 million from 1992. The increase was primarily the result of
higher earnings from continuing operations.
In 1994, the Company used $77.7 million of cash for investing activities,
primarily for the purchase of fixed assets and the HMD-Kontro acquisition.
Financing activities provided $32.4 million of cash in 1994, primarily net
borrowings supported by lines of credit and borrowings for the HMD-Kontro
acquisition, partially offset by cash used to repurchase common stock and pay
dividends.
In 1993, the Company generated $143.9 million of cash from investing
activities due primarily to the sale of SDC, partially offset by the purchase
of fixed assets. The Company used $363.2 million of cash for financing
activities for debt repayments, dividend payments, and repurchases of the
Company's stock.
In 1992, $201.8 million of cash was used for investing activities, which
consisted primarily of the acquisition of ESD and the purchase of fixed assets.
The Company used $21.6 million of cash for financing activities, primarily as a
result of dividend payments, partially offset by a net increase in debt.

At December 31, 1994, seven banks provided a total of $335.0 million of
unsecured revolving domestic credit facilities to the Company under a single
agreement, all of which was unused. The Company also maintains foreign lines
of credit for use in foreign operations totaling the equivalent of
approximately $22 million, of which $.6 million was used at December 31, 1994.
The entire unused portion of these credit facilities was available under the
Company's most restrictive debt covenants at December 31, 1994. Cash flow from
operating activities and access to credit facilities and the commercial paper
market provide the Company with current and continuing sources of liquidity.
The Company issues commercial paper in the United States, which is
supported by its domestic revolving credit facilities. At December 31, 1994
and 1993, the Company had $193.3 million and $24.8 million of commercial paper
outstanding, respectively.
On November 16, 1993, the Company's Board of Directors expanded its
authorization for the repurchase of the Company's outstanding common stock to a
total of ten million shares, up six million shares from the previous
authorization granted on February 16, 1993. The Company will consider a
variety of options for the repurchase of the shares, from time to time,
including open market, Dutch auction, and other purchases. The Company will
hold the repurchased shares as treasury stock. The Company had purchased 5.0
million shares through December 31, 1994, pursuant to the repurchase
authorization, at a total purchase price of $210.6 million. Funds for the
repurchases were provided by the Company's 4(2) commercial paper program and
operating activities.
In December 1993, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $5.0
million, or $.14 per share, for the early retirement of high-cost, long-term
debt. The extraordinary loss was due to the redemption premiums paid to
holders of its 9.375% bonds and 12.0% notes, and the writeoff of capitalized
debt

issuance costs associated with these instruments. Funds used to redeem these
instruments were provided by the net proceeds from the sale of SDC.
Interest expense in 1994 decreased by $10.4 million primarily as a result
of the debt retirement. Interest expense in 1995 is expected to increase
moderately from 1994 primarily as a result of a higher average debt balance
throughout the year.
The Company uses debt to the extent internally generated cash flow is
insufficient to meet its requirements. Accordingly, the ratio of its total
debt to total capital is important since it indicates the Company's capacity to
absorb additional debt. This ratio was 47.1 percent at the end of 1994,
compared with 35.5 percent at the end of 1993, and 47.5 percent at the end of
1992. The increase in 1994 was due primarily to the previously discussed
increase in notes payable and the effects of the share repurchase program. The
decrease in 1993 was primarily the result of the gain on the sale of SDC, the
previously mentioned reduction of debt, and the improvement in working capital,
partially offset by the share repurchases previously mentioned. Assuming no
share repurchases and no acquisitions, the Company expects the
total-debt-to-total-capital ratio to be approximately 40 percent by the end of
1995.
Capital expenditures, cash dividend payments, and working capital
requirements will be financed from the Company's continuing sources of
liquidity.
The Company remains actively involved in evaluating potential acquisitions,
which may be financed with internal cash flow, debt, stock, or a combination
thereof.
Capital expenditures (excluding leased equipment) consisting primarily of
normal replacements of property, plant, and equipment were $53.9 million in
1994, compared with $56.0 million in 1993. Capital expenditures in 1995 are
expected to be moderately higher than 1994 levels.
Total research and development expenditures for the years 1994, 1993, and
1992 were $109.0 million, $126.9 million, and $122.0 million, respectively, of
which $45.0 million, $50.1 million, and $43.0 million, respectively, was funded
by customers. The Company expects 1995 research and development expenditures
to be approximately $125 million, including approximately $55 million which
will be customer funded.
TAX ISSUES
For a detailed discussion, see the Income Taxes note on pages 43 through 45.
GOVERNMENT CONTRACT MATTERS
A portion of the Company's business results from contracts with or for
government agencies. Military sales in 1994 were $278.8 million, of which 31
percent and 69 percent were from prime contracts and subcontracts,
respectively. The Company's military sales in 1993 were $322.5 million, of
which 32 percent and 68 percent were from prime contracts and subcontracts,
respectively. The Company's military sales in 1992 were $327.8 million, of
which 35 percent and 65 percent were from prime contracts and subcontracts,
respectively. In addition, sales where the final customer was the U.S.
government represented 87 percent, 88 percent, and 91 percent of total military
sales in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. Government contracts generally
provide for the termination or the adjustment of material terms of such
contracts at the election of the government, and the government may pursue
contractual, administrative, civil, and criminal remedies for improper or
illegal activities associated with obtaining and performing government
contracts. Administrative remedies include the suspension, debarment, or
ineligibility of all or part of a company from receiving government contracts
and government-approved subcontracts. As is the case with any company that
performs material amounts of business with the federal government, any such
action by the government could have a material impact upon the Company's
business. Management is not aware of any such situations, except as discussed
below.
In 1986, the U.S. Navy terminated for its convenience a contract with the
Company for the supply of jet aircraft start units. As a result, the Company
requested termination costs of approximately $20 million. Conversely, the
government demanded payment of $20.3 million by the Company representing
previously paid progress payments associated with production costs, which the
government determined were not allocable to the contract. In October 1994, as
a result of settlement negotiations, an agreement was reached with the
government under which the Company expects to recover approximately $9.5
million. Actions are ongoing to implement the settlement agreement, including
the arrangement of payment and commence-

ment of the administrative closeout process. The resolution of this matter is
not expected to have a material financial impact on the Company, nor impact the
Company's ability to enter into future contractual agreements with the U.S.
Navy.
For additional discussions on government contract matters, see the
Government Contract Matters note on page 48.
OUTLOOK
Industrial
The outlook for the Company's Industrial businesses is quite favorable. Our
businesses have strong franchises in mature, cyclical markets, and they produce
above average profitability and excellent cash flow. Continuing strength in
the U.S. industrial economy, along with a recovering European economy and
penetration of more rapidly growing economies in the rest of the world, should
allow the Industrial segment to continue to grow while earning significant
operating margins. The growth of this segment may require additional capital
expenditures in certain businesses for increases in capacity. Industrial
companies or products with specific characteristics also may present attractive
acquisition targets for the Company.
Aerospace
The commercial aerospace industry worldwide is expected to experience moderate
growth through the end of the decade. The Company's Aerospace business has a
strong market position, and is poised to benefit from anticipated worldwide
growth in revenue passenger miles which ultimately results in increased demand
for new aircraft.
Major reductions in military spending, however, are expected to negatively
impact the Company's manufacturing load over an extended period of time. In
addition, the current reduced rate of new aircraft acquisitions by world
airlines, the migration to twin-engine planes, and improved reliability of the
Company's products also have impacted the manufacturing load. This has
resulted in the profitability of the Aerospace segment becoming increasingly
volume sensitive.
Increases in manufacturing productivity accompanied by recent reductions in
manufacturing volume have resulted in excess manufacturing and engineering
capacity, along with related overheads. In response to this situation, the
Company's Board of Directors on February 21, 1995, approved a restructuring
plan that will result in a first quarter pretax charge of $58 million. The
charge will be taken to cover the one-time costs of reducing excess
manufacturing capacity by closing its facility in Lima, Ohio, reducing the
engineering overhead in the Company's Aerospace segment, and writing down the
assets of two non-core product lines.
The anticipated net effects of additional non-accrued expenses,
restructuring savings, and related nonrecurring gains are a pretax loss of
approximately $7 million in 1995 and pretax earnings of approximately $20
million in 1996. The restructuring is expected to reduce cash flow by about
$16 million in 1995 and provide a cash flow benefit of about $8 million in
1996.
Forecast
In its quarterly earnings release of February 22, 1995, the Company forecast
for 1995 a sales increase of about 5 percent which should result in earnings
per share in a range of $3.25 to $3.45, excluding the effects of the previously
discussed restructuring and any additional share repurchases. Order trends
support this forecast.
Industrial sales in 1995 are expected to increase by about 10 percent and,
excluding the first quarter charge, yield an operating profit margin of about
17 percent of sales. Aerospace sales are expected to be relatively flat in
1995 with an operating profit margin of approximately 13 percent of sales,
excluding the effects of the restructuring.

Management's Report
The management of Sundstrand is responsible for the preparation and
presentation of the consolidated financial statements and related financial
information included in this annual report. These have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
and, as such, include amounts based on estimates by management. The
consolidated financial statements have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, the
Company's independent auditors.
Management also is responsible for maintaining a system of internal
accounting controls which is designed to provide reasonable assurance that
assets are safeguarded and that transactions are executed in accordance with
management's authorization and are properly recorded. To assure the
maintenance of effective internal controls, management adopts and disseminates
policies, procedures and directives; selects and trains qualified personnel;
establishes organizational structures which permit the delegation of authority
and responsibility; and maintains an active program of internal audits and
appropriate follow-up by management.
The management of Sundstrand also recognizes its responsibility to promote
a strong ethical climate throughout the Company. Toward this end, the Company
provides training in ethical decision making to each employee. In addition,
each employee receives a copy of the Company's manual on Business Conduct and
Ethics.
The Board of Directors elects an Audit Committee from among its members who
are not employees of the Company. The Audit Committee meets periodically with
management, the internal auditors, and the independent auditors to review the
work of each and satisfy itself that they are properly discharging their
responsibilities. Both the independent auditors and internal auditors have
free access to the Audit Committee, without the presence of management, to
discuss internal accounting controls, auditing, and financial reporting
matters.

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors, Sundstrand Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sundstrand
Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sundstrand
Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, in 1992
the Company changed its method of accounting for postretirement benefits other
than pensions.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation provide for the inclusion of the accounts of
Sundstrand Corporation and all subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions are
eliminated in consolidation.
Cash Equivalents are considered by the Company to be all highly liquid debt
instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less.
Sales Under Long-Term Contracts, a portion of which are with the U.S.
government, are accounted for under the percentage of completion method. The
Company enters into long-term contracts which require it to develop or advance
state-of-the-art technology products. Sales on developmental contracts are
recorded as the related costs are incurred and include estimated profits
calculated on the basis of the relationship between costs incurred and total
estimated costs (cost-to-cost method of percentage of completion). The Company
also enters into long-term contracts for the manufacture of products. Sales on
production-type contracts are recorded as deliveries are made
(units-of-delivery method of percentage of completion). Marketing and
administrative costs are expensed as incurred.
On a selective basis, the Company may enter into a contract to research and
develop or manufacture a product with a loss anticipated at the date the
contract is signed. These contracts are entered into in anticipation that
profits will be obtained from future contracts for the same or similar
products. These loss contracts often provide the Company with intellectual
property rights which, in effect, establish it as the sole producer of certain
products. Such losses are recognized at the date the Company becomes
contractually obligated, with revisions made as changes occur in the related
estimates to complete.
Certain contracts and subcontracts are subject to government audit and
review. Information related to government contract matters is presented on
page 48.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (principally first-in,
first-out method) or market. Certain inventories are valued using the last-in,
first-out method. Inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts are
accounted for based on the percentage-of-completion methods described above.
Property, Plant, and Equipment is recorded at cost and depreciation is
generally provided on the straight-line basis by charges to expense at rates
based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives
range from 3 to 20 years for machinery and equipment and 10 to 40 years for
buildings. Expenditures for new facilities and expenditures that substantially
increase the useful lives of the property are capitalized. Maintenance and
repairs are expensed as incurred.
Intangible Assets of $285.8 million and $274.4 million at December 31, 1994
and 1993, respectively (net of accumulated amortization of $81.3 million and
$66.5 million, respectively), consist primarily of goodwill associated with
certain acquisitions. Goodwill is amortized primarily over 40 years using the
straight-line method.
The Company annually evaluates whether a change in the estimated useful
life of goodwill is warranted or whether the remaining goodwill balance may be
impaired. The Company currently believes that no impairment of goodwill has
occurred. However, if the cumulative undiscounted cash flows, before interest,
over the remaining life of the goodwill indicated an impairment, a reduction
for impairment of goodwill would be recorded.
Derivative Financial Instruments in the form of foreign currency forward
contracts are entered into by the Company as a hedge against foreign currency
exposures. These contracts limit the Company's exposure to both favorable and
unfavorable currency fluctuations. On contracts which are designated as a
hedge of a firm commitment, a net investment in a foreign entity, or an
intercompany transaction of a long-term nature, gains and losses are deferred
and included in the measurement of the hedged transaction upon settlement.
Gains and losses on other foreign currency forward contracts, including
contracts which relate to anticipated transactions, are reflected in the
financial statements in the period in which the currency fluctuation occurs.
The Company has strict controls regarding the use of derivative financial
instruments, which is limited to foreign currency forward contracts. Any
deviation from this policy requires the prior approval of the Company's
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. In order to manage
credit risk related to the foreign currency forward contracts, the Company
utilizes only highly-rated commercial banks or financial institutions for such
purposes. Compliance with this policy is monitored on an ongoing basis, and is
reviewed and approved annually by the Finance Committee of the Company's Board
of Directors.

ADDITIONAL STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS INFORMATION
Excluded from the 1993 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows was $11.9 million
of non-cash financing activities related to the conversion of Phantom Stock and
Cash Equivalent Rights liabilities to Restricted Stock under the Company's
Stock Incentive Plan. For additional information on this plan see the Stock
Incentive Plan note on pages 46 and 47.
SUNDSTRAND DATA CONTROL DIVISION (SDC) SALE
On November 12, 1993, pursuant to the Stock, Note, and Real Property Purchase
Agreement between AlliedSignal, Inc. (Allied) and the Company dated July 14,
1993, the Company transferred substantially all of the assets, business, and
properties which were utilized in connection with the business of SDC to
Allied. The purchase price was $191.0 million and Allied agreed to assume
certain liabilities of the business. This resulted in a pretax gain of $96.0
million and an after-tax gain of $55.7 million, which included earnings
generated since the January 31, 1993, measurement date. Results for prior
years have been restated and results for 1993 have been disaggregated to
reflect SDC as a discontinued operation.
WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS DIVISION (ESD) ACQUISITION
On May 8, 1992, the Company acquired the assets of ESD for $128.0 million. ESD
is a manufacturer of electric power generating equipment for aircraft. The
acquisition was recorded using the purchase method of accounting, and the
results of operations of ESD since the acquisition date have been included in
the Company's consolidated financial statements for 1992, 1993, and 1994. The
cost in excess of the net assets acquired was $68.6 million and is being
amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years.
RESTRUCTURING OF AEROSPACE SEGMENT
The anticipated accelerated decline in military sales and slower growth in
commercial sales during the next several years made the initiation of
restructuring actions necessary during 1992 in the Company's Aerospace segment.
These actions also provided for the integration of ESD into the Company's
electric power systems product line and were directly related to reducing
capacity and lowering fixed costs. Restructuring actions identified in 1992
resulted in charges to continuing operations of $32.2 million before taxes and
$20.4 million after taxes ($.57 per share). The Company completed this
restructuring in the fourth quarter of 1994 having charged costs of $8.4
million, $14.5 million, and $9.3 million against the reserve in 1994, 1993, and
1992, respectively.

During 1994, the Company changed its estimate of the average useful lives used
to compute depreciation for certain fixed assets. This change resulted from
internal asset management procedures that are designed to ensure continued
compliance with government contract accounting requirements and was made to
reflect better the estimated periods during which such assets will remain in
service. The change had the effect of increasing net earnings by $5.5 million,
or $.17 per share, in the year ended December 31, 1994.

PENSION BENEFITS
The Company has defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all U.S.
employees. Pay-related plans generally provide pension benefits that are based
on the employee's highest compensation during a three-year period or the
employee's average career compensation, prior to retirement. Nonpay-related
plans provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. Pension
plans for U.S. employees have been funded at amounts equal to or greater than
the minimum required by ERISA.
Pension cost for 1994, 1993, and 1992 included:

</TABLE>
The projected benefit obligation was determined using an assumed discount
rate of 8.5 percent at December 31, 1994, and 7.25 percent at December 31,
1993. The assumed weighted-average long-term rate of compensation increase was
5.0 percent at December 31, 1994 and 4.5 percent at December 31, 1993. The
assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets was 8.75 percent at December
31, 1994, 1993, and 1992. Plan assets consist principally of common stocks and
fixed income investments.
During 1993, SDC was sold and, as a result, future benefits for former
employees of this division were fixed causing recognition of a $7.5 million
curtailment gain, which has been reflected in the gain on the sale of SDC.
The Company also sponsors four defined contribution retirement benefit
plans that cover substantially all U.S. and Puerto Rican employees. All of
these plans are subject to ERISA. Three of the plans are intended to be
maintained under the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, and one plan is intended to be maintained under the Puerto
Rico Income Tax Act of 1954, as amended. Two of these plans provide that the
employer will match certain portions of the employee-directed contributions.
The 1994, 1993, and 1992 Company matching contributions to the above plans were
$.5 million, $.7 million, and $.8 million, respectively.
POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
The Company provides health and life insurance benefits for retired employees
and certain dependents when employees become eligible for these benefits by
satisfying plan provisions, which include certain age and/or service
requirements. Health and life insurance benefits for retirees of domestic
operations are provided through insurance contracts, a group benefit trust or
general assets of the Company. Health and life insurance benefits for retirees
of foreign operations, where applicable, are provided through
government-sponsored plans to which contributions by the Company are required.
The health insurance plans covering substantially all U.S. employees are
contributory, with contributions adjusted annually, and these plans contain
other cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. Currently,
the Company requires contributions, which are adjusted annually, primarily from
employees who retired subsequent to 1991. The Company does not prefund these
plans and has the right to modify or terminate any of these plans in the
future.
In the second quarter of 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 106 (SFAS No. 106), "Employers' Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," retroactive to the
[42]
<PAGE> 45
first quarter of 1992. SFAS No. 106 requires that the projected future cost of
retiree health and life insurance be recognized as a cost as employees render
service instead of when the benefits are paid. As a result of this adoption,
the Company recorded a pretax charge of $319.9 million ($205.0 million after
taxes or $5.68 per share) as the cumulative effect of the accounting change at
that date. Postretirement health and life insurance costs for 1994, 1993, and
1992 were $23.4 million, $34.6 million, and $33.8 million, respectively.
The components of postretirement benefit cost for 1994, 1993, and 1992 were:

The assumed weighted-average annual rate of increase in the per capita cost
of medical and prescription drug benefits (applicable only to employees who
retired prior to 1992) is 8 percent for 1995 and is assumed to decrease
gradually each year from 1995 to 2000 and remain level at 5 percent
thereafter. The assumed weighted-average annual rate of increase in the per
capita cost of dental benefits (applicable only to employees who retired prior
to 1992) is 7 percent in 1995 and is assumed to decrease 1 percent per year
from 1995 to 1997 and remain level at 5 percent thereafter. These rates have
no effect on the Company's costs for employees retiring after 1991 as the
Company's policy is to increase retiree contributions so that the Company's
annual per capita cost increases at the general inflation rate. The assumed
annual rate of increase in the general inflation rate (applicable to employees
retiring after 1991) is 4 percent.
A 1 percent increase in the annual health care trend rates would have
increased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31,
1994 and 1993, by $15.9 million and $20.8 million, respectively, and increased
postretirement benefit expense for 1994, 1993, and 1992 by $1.3 million, $3.7
million, and $4.4 million, respectively. The weighted-average discount rate
used to estimate the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 8.75
percent at December 31, 1994, and 7.5 percent at December 31, 1993.
During 1993, SDC was sold and, as a result, future benefits for former
employees of this division were fixed causing recognition of a $10.9 million
curtailment gain, which has been reflected in the gain on the sale of SDC.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for the three years ended December 31, 1994, consisted of

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS No. 109), "Accounting for
Income Taxes," effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1992.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 109 as of January 1, 1993, with no significant
effect. Prior to adopting SFAS No. 109, the Company accounted for income taxes
based on Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 11.
Significant components of the net deferred tax assets at December 31, 1994,

During the third quarter of 1993, a tax bill was enacted which increased
the federal statutory tax rate on the income of corporations from 34 percent to
35 percent. Due to the tax law change, deferred tax assets increased $11.2
million, of which $8.1 million was a reduction in goodwill related to the
acquisition of ESD and $3.1 million was a reduction in current-year tax
expense.

Profits recorded on intercompany sales excluded above were $14.5 million,
$4.2 million, and $3.0 million, in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively, and were
earned primarily by the Company's Singapore subsidiaries.
At December 31, 1994, total assets of operations outside the United States
were $177.6 million after deducting $12.8 million due from the Company's
domestic operations. The Company's year-end 1994 equity in its foreign
operations was $175.5 million.
As a result of the 1992 resolution of a multi-year dispute with the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concerning intercompany pricing with a Singapore
subsidiary, the Company was able to establish a plan for repatriation of
foreign earnings which had the effect of reducing the amount of foreign
subsidiary earnings which were permanently invested. In 1994, the increase in
business opportunities outside the U.S., and in the Far East region in
particular, caused the Company to review its repatriation plans. In order to
exploit the expanding foreign marketplace, the Company adjusted its planning to
recognize that foreign earnings previously earmarked for repatriation would now
be considered permanently invested and used for capital investment. As of
December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company had not provided federal income taxes
on $67.3 million and $38.2 million, respectively, of undistributed earnings
recorded by certain subsidiaries outside the United States, since these
earnings were deemed permanently invested.
For the years 1983 through 1985, the IRS has proposed to increase the
Company's taxable income by approximately $225 million based upon the IRS'
assertion that certain intercompany loans between the Company and its Sunpac
subsidiary in Singapore should be taxed as if they were dividends to the
Company. While the amount of the proposed adjustment is material, the Company
does not believe the IRS' position will be sustained.
[44]
<PAGE> 47
In connection with the resolution of government contracts disputes, amended
federal income tax returns were filed for the years 1978 through 1987 which
requested $32.3 million in refunds and created tax benefit carryforwards of
$51.9 million, which the Company subsequently used. The issue of whether the
payments made upon the resolution of the government contracts disputes could
reduce taxable income in the years in which the revenues from the contracts
were reported was decided during 1992 by the U.S. Tax Court, which issued an
opinion adverse to the Company for the years 1979 through 1982. The Company
took various actions to reverse the Tax Court's decision. In October 1994, the
Company ceased its efforts to reverse this decision and made a payment of $17.8
million to the IRS which did not have a material financial impact on the
Company. Additionally, during 1994, the IRS informed the Company that it was
disallowing a deduction for the $115.0 million in payments pursuant to the
settlement agreement dated August 29, 1988. While the potential impact of this
disallowance is material, the Company does not believe that the IRS' position
will be substantially sustained.
The Company believes that its recorded tax and interest provisions are
sufficient to cover the final resolution of any tax deficiencies.
NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT
Notes payable consist of commercial paper and bank borrowings and were $193.9
million and $26.6 million at an average interest rate of 6.3 percent and 3.6
percent at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively. At December 31, 1994,
the Company maintained domestic revolving credit facilities totaling $335.0
million. Commitment fees incurred in 1994 were $.7 million. The Company also
maintained foreign lines of credit for use in its foreign operations totaling
the equivalent of approximately $22 million at December 31, 1994.
Under the domestic credit facilities in place at December 31, 1994,
payments of dividends are limited by the requirement to maintain a minimum
level of net worth. At December 31, 1994, net worth exceeded the maintenance
level by $172.3 million.
The composition of long-term debt at December 31, 1994 and 1993, was:

=========== ===========
</TABLE>
In December 1993, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $7.9
million before taxes, or $5.0 million after taxes, for the early retirement of
debt. The extraordinary loss was due to the redemption premiums paid to
holders of the 9.375% bonds and the 12.0% notes, and the writeoff of
capitalized debt issuance costs associated with these instruments.
Total principal payments required under long-term debt agreements for the
five years subsequent to December 31, 1994, are $10.7 million in 1995, $8.4
million in 1996, $8.0 million in 1997, $6.0 million in 1998, and $1.1 million
in 1999.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK
In the normal course of business, the Company is party to financial instruments
with off-balance-sheet risk to meet financing needs and to reduce its own
exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. These financial instruments
include financial guarantees and forward exchange contracts. These instruments
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and/or exchange rate risk in
excess of the amount recognized in the financial statements.
Financial guarantees are conditional commitments issued by the Company to
guarantee the payment of certain liabilities of unconsolidated affiliates and
unaffiliated entities to third parties. These guarantees are issued primarily
to support borrowing arrangements, and are scheduled to expire, subject to
extension, during 1995. The Company's exposure for financial guarantees is
equal to the contractual amount of these guarantees. The contractual amounts
and the maximum credit loss in the event of non-performance at December 31,
1994, were both $9.5 million.
[45]
<PAGE> 48
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Forward exchange contracts are contracts for delivery or purchase of
foreign currencies at specified future dates. For forward exchange contracts,
the contract amounts represent currency exposure if the other party fails to
perform under the contract. At December 31, 1994, the Company had forward
exchange contracts maturing during 1995 to sell the equivalent of $91.2 million
and to purchase the equivalent of $16.7 million in foreign currency. These
contracts included $95.4 million which the Company used to limit its exposure
to foreign currency fluctuations related to specific assets and liabilities
denominated in a foreign currency, primarily the French franc. The remaining
$12.5 million was used to limit the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on
anticipated Singapore dollar cash flow, based on forecasted monthly
expenditures. Had all of the forward exchange contracts matured on December
31, 1994, the Company's cash requirement would have been immaterial.
FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating
its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount reported in the balance
sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value.
Foreign currency exchange contracts: The fair value of the Company's
foreign exchange contracts is estimated based on quoted market prices of
comparable contracts.
Short- and long-term debt: The carrying amounts of the Company's
borrowings under its commercial paper programs, its short-term revolving credit
agreements, and variable rate long-term debt instruments approximate their fair
value. The fair value of the Company's other long-term debt is estimated using
discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's current incremental
borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments
at December 31, 1994 and 1993, were:

LEASE ARRANGEMENTS AND RENT EXPENSE
Rent and lease expense for the years 1994, 1993, and 1992 were $14.8 million,
$16.4 million, and $19.8 million, respectively. The Company leases certain
facilities and equipment under operating leases, many of which contain renewal
options and escalation clauses. Minimum future rental commitments under
noncancelable operating leases which extend beyond one year are payable as
follows: 1995, $11.2 million; 1996, $9.0 million; 1997, $6.7 million; 1998,
$5.1 million; 1999, $5.0 million; and after 1999, $14.6 million. Facilities
and equipment under capital leases, minimum future rentals receivable under
subleases, and contingent rental expenses were not significant for the years
1994, 1993, and 1992.
STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
During 1992, the Company established a stock incentive plan, which was approved
by the Company's shareholders at the April 20, 1993, Annual Meeting. The plan
permits up to a maximum of 1.8 million shares of common stock to be granted as
nonqualified and incentive stock options and restricted stock to managerial,
supervisory, and professional employees. The options are granted, at fair
market value, for a term of ten years and become exercisable in increments of
25 percent of an individual grant on each of the second through fifth
anniversary dates of the grant. The approval of this plan included the
immediate conversion to Restricted Stock of 445,520 rights under the Company's
Phantom Stock Plan and 102,800 rights under the Company's Cash Equivalent
Program. In addition, during 1994 and 1993, the Company sold 82,275 and 52,500
shares, respectively, of restricted stock to managerial employees. The
restricted stock may not be resold until the restrictions placed on these
shares expire. The amount of compensation represented by the sale of
restricted stock is being amortized over a nine-year vesting period.
Transactions involving stock options for the plan are summarized as follows:

At December 31, 1994 and 1993, shares available for future grants under
this plan were 467,084 and 855,105, respectively.
RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN
In accordance with the terms of the Company's restricted stock plan, 4,750 and
500 shares of common stock were sold to key managerial employees at their par
value during 1994 and 1993, respectively. This common stock may not be resold
until the restrictions placed on these shares expire. The amount of
compensation represented by the sale of restricted stock is being amortized
over a nine-year vesting period. As of December 31, 1994, 160,550 shares were
available for granting under this restricted stock plan.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The Company performs research and development under both Company-funded
programs and under contracts with others, principally the U.S. government.
Company-funded programs include bid and proposal work for both military and
commercial products and research and development. All Company-funded research
and development is expensed as incurred or expensed in accordance with the
Company's policy on contract accounting; customer-funded research and
development is accounted for under the Company's contract accounting policy.
Total research and development expenditures for the years 1994, 1993, and 1992
were $109.0 million, $126.9 million, and $122.0 million, respectively, of which
$45.0 million, $50.1 million, and $43.0 million, respectively, was funded by
customers.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
In 1994, the Company spent $5.2 million on remediation cleanups and related
studies, compared with $4.6 million in 1993, and $10.7 million in 1992. The
Company anticipates spending approximately $5.4 million in 1995 for similar
activities. In 1994, the costs associated with environmental matters as they
relate to day-to-day activities were not material and such costs for 1995 are
not expected to be material.
The Company is involved in environmental investigation and/or remediation
at certain of its present and former plant sites. At those sites where
remediation activity is presently being conducted, the Company is not yet able
to determine when such activity will be complete. The total annual remediation
operating costs at such sites are not material to the Company. At one of the
Company's plant sites, the Company is continuing to work with the Colorado
Department of Health by implementing a partial remediation program and
developing a final remediation plan. At all of the other present and former
plant sites where remediations are being conducted, the Company believes such
remediations are sufficient to meet the requirements of the applicable
enforcement agencies. The Company believes the provisions it has made for the
investigations and remediations at its present and former plant sites, at which
it has retained certain environmental liability, are adequate to meet current
requirements at such sites, and to meet claims made by third parties which have
arisen from the conditions at such sites.
The Company, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, (Superfund) or equivalent state
statutes, has been named or notified that it is a potentially responsible party
(PRP) at twenty-seven sites where environmental damage is alleged. With
respect to twenty-two of the sites, the Company's involvement is very limited
and it is anticipated that the Company's liability will be resolved on a de
minimis basis. The Company believes the provisions it has made are adequate to
satisfy its liability at these sites.
There are three Superfund sites with respect to which the Company, although
its involvement is relatively small, will not be able to participate in a de
minimis resolution. The Company believes the provisions it has made are
adequate to satisfy its liability at these sites.
The remaining two Superfund sites are the Interstate Pollution Control
(IPC) Superfund site and the Southeast Rockford Superfund site, both located in
Rockford, Illinois.
The IPC site involves the Company and 41 other PRPs which have signed a
consent decree with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) to fund
and perform a remedial investigation and feasibility study and to pay the IEPA
for certain past and future response costs relating to its investigations. In
addition, pursuant to another consent order, certain removal and other interim
remediations have been completed and paid for by the PRPs. The Company has
established provisions with respect to this site to cover the costs associated
with remediation cleanups and related studies.
At the Southeast Rockford Superfund site the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) has named the Company as a PRP. Based upon available
information, the Company believes the contamination is from multiple sources
and the Company is not one of such sources. The Southeast Rockford Superfund
site located in Rockford, Illinois, involves a historically contaminated
regional groundwater situation with respect to which the Company and six other
PRPs have been requested by the USEPA to reimburse past costs of $8.9 million
which the USEPA has incurred and future costs. The provision established is to
cover the costs of supporting the Company's position that it is not one of the
sources of the contamination at this site and is believed to be adequate for
this purpose.
[47]
<PAGE> 50
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Uncertainties such as the extent of contamination, the extent of the
Company's contribution to the contamination at the Southeast Rockford Superfund
site, if any, the number of other PRPs and their financial viability, and the
absence of a determination of the type of remediation which may be required
have caused the Company to be unable reasonably to estimate the total
remediation costs which it may incur with respect to this site. However, the
Company is actively involved in seeking a solution which would not result in a
material loss to the Company and believes such a solution is probable.
GOVERNMENT CONTRACT MATTERS
In connection with U.S. government contracts and subcontracts, the Company
received notification in prior years of several defective pricing claims.
While the Company believes that its existing provisions for these claims are
adequate, the amounts due upon final resolution may differ from the recorded
provisions.
SUBSEQUENT EVENT
The Company's Board of Directors on February 21, 1995, approved a restructuring
plan that will result in a first quarter pretax charge of $58 million. The
charge will be taken to cover the one-time costs of reducing excess
manufacturing capacity by closing its facility in Lima, Ohio, reducing the
engineering overhead in the Company's Aerospace segment, and writing down the
assets of two non-core product lines.
The anticipated net effects of additional non-accrued expenses,
restructuring savings, and related nonrecurring gains are a pretax loss of
approximately $7 million in 1995 and pretax earnings of approximately $20
million in 1996. The restructuring is expected to reduce cash flow by about
$16 million in 1995 and provide a cash flow benefit of about $8 million in
1996.

Additional 10-K Information
DATE OF INCORPORATION
The Company was incorporated in Illinois in 1910 and became a Delaware
corporation in 1966.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES
The Company uses many raw and finished materials of primary and alloy-type
metal in forms such as cast, forged, sheet, and bar, which are generally
available from multiple sources. In addition, mechanical and electronic
materials and supplies such as fasteners, bearings, gaskets, filters, motors,
resistors, transformers, and semiconductors are procured from various sources.
The Company deals with numerous suppliers and is not dependent upon any one
manufacturer or supplier of materials, supplies, or services. However, from
time to time, general shortages of particular raw materials and supplies may
have an adverse effect on the Company.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
The Company owns a large number of patents (expiring through 2011) and other
intellectual property rights and interests, e.g., trademarks, trade secrets,
and licenses, which are of importance in the aggregate to the conduct of its
business and are expected to be of value in the future. In the judgment of the
Company, its patents and other intellectual property rights and interests are
adequate for the conduct of its business, but the loss or expiration of any
single or group of patents or other intellectual properties or interests would
not materially affect the conduct of its business as a whole. In the Company's
opinion, its design, manufacturing and marketing skills, experience, and
reputation are as responsible for its positions in the markets it serves as are
its patents and other intellectual property rights and interests.
PROPERTIES
The Company occupies building space totaling approximately 6.7 million square
feet, which is divided by business segment as follows: Industrial, 3.1 million
square feet; Aerospace, 3.4 million square feet; and corporate offices, .2
million square feet. All building space is owned by the Company, except
approximately .8 million square feet of leased space, and is well maintained,
in good operating condition, and suitable for its operations. The Company owns
approximately 210 acres of vacant land for future expansion.
Domestic manufacturing facilities are located in Auburn, Alabama; Phoenix,
Arizona; San Diego, California; Arvada, Denver, and Grand Junction, Colorado;
Rockford, Illinois; Michigan City, Indiana; Acton, Massachusetts; York,
Nebraska; Rochester, New York; Lima, Ohio; Bend, Oregon; Ivyland, Pennsylvania;
Milwaukee, Wisconsin; and Santa Isabel, Puerto Rico.
Foreign manufacturing facilities are located in Eastbourne, England; Dijon,
Merignac, Montbrison, Pont-St.-Pierre, and St. Priest, France; Shannon, Ireland
and the Republic of Singapore.
COMPETITION
The Company has competitors or potential competitors in each of its product
lines. Some of these competitors or potential competitors may have greater
financial and personnel resources than the Company. The Company believes that
its research and development, proprietary technology, and product and service
reputation have been of particular significance in maintaining the Company's
competitive standing.
