9 • Large Change in CEO Pension Value in 2012 – Pension Negotiated When CEO Was Recruited in 2002 – No Changes Since • Change Driven Primarily By 2 Items: – 2012 Bonus Replacing 2009 Bonus in 3 - Year Final Average Pay Used in Calculation  Represents ~70% of the Change  Unintended Consequence of CEO Agreeing to a Zero Bonus During 2009 Economic Downturn (Note: Change in Pension Value for 2009 Was Negative) – A Decline in the Discount Rate to Determine Reported Pension Values  Represents ~25% of the Change • Rate Declined 83 bps in 2012 (From 4.89% At 12/31/11 to 4.06% At 12/31/12) • CEO Pension Value Likely to Decline in Future Periods* – CEO Pension Not Improved with Additional Service with the Company – CEO Reached Full Retirement Age in 2012 - # of Payments Declines Each Year Going Forward – Negative Changes in Pension Value Not Reported on SCT Under SEC Rules *Assuming consistent final average compensation and no further declines in the discount rate Change In CEO Pension Value (2013 Proxy) Anomaly - Not Result Of 2012 Compensation Action


 
 

10 Separation of Chair/CEO Roles


 
 

11 Unified Leadership Important for HON Success HON’s Board Opposes Separation of Chair/CEO • Widely accepted belief that separation of Chair/CEO role is always a “best practice” should be reexamined • No correlation between performance and separation of Chair/CEO Roles – Recent research debunks myth that separation of Chair/CEO is uniformly beneficial  See Krause, R. & Semadeni , M. 2012. “Apprentice, Departure and Demotion: An Examination of the Three Types of CEO - Board Chair Separation.” Academy of Management Journal – For Honeywell, separation risks more harm than good  Complexity of businesses, end - markets, technologies and geographies requires strong, unified leadership  Competing leadership roles from separate Chair/CEO undermines “unity of action, coordination and focus.”


 
 

12 Independent Board Counter - Balances Chair/CEO Separation Should be Left to Board Discretion • Robust Governance Practices Ensures Adequate Oversight – Other Than CEO, Board is 100% Independent; All Committees 100% Independent – No Problematic Governance or Management Issues; – Directors Review in Advance Board/Committee Agendas; – Directors Free to Raise Subjects Not on Agenda or Propose Items for Future Agendas; – Directors Receive in Advance Written Board Material (Opportunity to Comment); – Presiding Director Leads Executive Sessions At Each Board Meeting (Rotating) and Serves As Liaison Between Independent Directors and Chairman • Lead Director will Undermine Sense of Shared Responsibility. • Recent Actions by Board Obviate Need for Lead Director – Amended By - laws to Allow Chair of Governance Committee (CGRC) to Call Meeting of Directors At Anytime; – Chair of CGRC Designated as Permanent Point of Contact for Shareowner Feedback


 
 

13 Action by Written Consent


 
 

14 The Board Opposes Action by Written Consent Written Consent Undermines Annual Proxy Process • Written consent undermines shareowner democracy; allows insurgent shareholders to act outside the shareowners’ meeting: – Compared to formal proxy process, l acks procedural protections and ability of both sides to communicate with shareowners; – Allows narrow, parochial interests to distract management and the board and waste resources; and – Undermines annual shareowners meeting process; allows for removal of b oard of directors without cause immediately following board meeting. • Honeywell shareowners already able to call special meeting based on vote of 20% of outstanding shares • Honeywell shareowners have adequate opportunity for their voices to be heard: – Annual election of directors and majority voting in uncontested elections – Shareowner approval of poison pills; – Elimination of supermajority voting; – Year - round engagement of management with shareowners; and – Chair of Governance Committee is permanent point of contact for shareowner feedback (added in 2013).


 
 

15 Acceleration of Vesting Upon Change in Control


 
 

16 Accelerated Vesting Aligns Shareowners and Mgmt. Interests of HON Executives and Shareowners Should be 100% Aligned • Takeover premiums are significantly larger when the target CEO receives the benefit of accelerated vesting – New research based on analysis of 107 takeovers from 2005 to 2009 finds a strong correlation between accelerated vesting and stock price premiums  See Elkinawy , S. & Offenberg , D. 2012. “Accelerated Vesting in Takeovers: The Impact on Shareholder Wealth.” Financial Management • For large cap companies, successful takeovers require 100% support of management – Options are ~45% of Honeywell executive compensation; and – Executives unlikely to risk forfeiture of options unless they participate with shareholders in takeover premium. • Accelerated vesting needed given regulatory uncertainties in large cap company takeovers (i.e. G.E. attempted acquisition of HON) – Honeywell executives unlikely to be employed by Acquiror post - takeover; – Honeywell executives need to be motivated to stay until deal closes; and – If executives leave and takeover fails (i.e. ATT/T - Mobile), shareholders materially harmed.
