PART I. ITEM 1. BUSINESS On December 1, 1999, AlliedSignal Inc. (AlliedSignal) and Honeywell Inc. (former Honeywell) completed a merger under an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) dated as of June 4, 1999. Under the Merger Agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AlliedSignal merged with and into the former Honeywell. As a result of the merger, the former Honeywell has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of AlliedSignal. At the effective time of the merger, AlliedSignal was renamed Honeywell International Inc. (Honeywell). MAJOR BUSINESSES Honeywell is a diversified technology and manufacturing company, serving customers worldwide with aerospace products and services, control technologies for buildings, homes and industry, automotive products, power generation systems, specialty chemicals, fibers, plastics and electronic and advanced materials. Our operations are conducted by strategic business units, which have been aggregated under four reportable segments: Aerospace Solutions, Automation & Asset Management, Performance Materials and Power & Transportation Products. Financial information related to our reportable segments is included in Note 23 (Segment Financial Data) of Notes to Financial Statements in our 1999 Annual Report to Shareowners which is incorporated by reference.

On that date, the former Honeywell shareowners were entitled to receive 1.875 shares of Honeywell International Inc. common stock for each share of the former Honeywell common stock, with cash paid in lieu of any fractional shares. As a result, former Honeywell shareowners were entitled to receive approximately 241 million shares of Honeywell International Inc. common stock valued at approximately $15 billion at the merger date. After completion of the merger in the fourth quarter of 1999, we recognized a pretax charge of $642 million for the cost of actions designed to improve our combined competitiveness and productivity and improve future profitability. The merger-related actions included the elimination of redundant corporate offices and functional administrative overhead; elimination of redundant and excess facilities and workforce in our combined aerospace businesses; adoption of six sigma productivity initiatives at the former Honeywell businesses; and transition to a global shared services model. The components of the charge included severance costs of $342 million, asset impairments of $108 million, other exit costs of $57 million and merger-related transaction and period expenses of $135 million. Planned global workforce reductions consisted of approximately 6,500 administrative and manufacturing positions. Asset impairments principally related to the elimination of redundant or excess corporate and aerospace facilities and equipment. At year-end, approximately $9 million of redundant assets were not able to be removed from service and are currently being depreciated over their shortened useful lives. Other exit costs related to lease terminations and contract cancellation losses negotiated or subject to reasonable estimation at year-end. Merger-related transaction and period expenses consisted of investment banking and legal fees, former Honeywell deferred compensation vested upon change in control and other direct merger-related expenses incurred in the period the merger was completed. All merger-related actions are expected to be completed by December 31, 2000. In 1999, we also recognized a pretax charge of $321 million for the costs of actions designed to reposition principally the AlliedSignal business units for improved productivity and future profitability. These repositioning actions included the organizational realignment of our aerospace businesses to strengthen market focus and simplify business structure; elimination of an unprofitable product line and rationalization of manufacturing capacity and infrastructure in the Performance Polymers business; a 10

reduction in infrastructure in the Turbocharging Systems business; closing a wax refinery and carbon materials plant and rationalization of manufacturing capacity in the Specialty Chemicals business; elimination of two manufacturing facilities in our Electronic Materials business; a plant closure and outsourcing activity in our automotive Consumer Products Group business; and related and general workforce reductions in all AlliedSignal businesses and our Industrial Control business. The components of the charge included severance costs of $140 million, asset impairments of $149 million, and other exit costs of $32 million. Global workforce reductions consisted of approximately 5,100 manufacturing, administrative, and sales positions. Asset impairments principally related to manufacturing plant and equipment held for sale and capable of being taken out of service and actively marketed in the period of impairment. Other exit costs principally consisted of environmental exit costs associated with chemical plant shutdowns. All repositioning actions, excluding environmental remediation, are expected to be completed by December 31, 2000. Based on our review of the operations and infrastructure of the two companies and our integration planning to date, we expect that the combined company will realize annual cost savings of at least $250 million in 2000, $575 million in 2001 and $750 million in 2002. We expect to realize at least $750 million in cost savings in 2002 as follows: by achieving procurement and purchasing efficiencies by utilizing AlliedSignal's and the former Honeywell's combined purchasing capabilities, centralizing the two companies' purchasing processes and benefiting from the added buying efficiencies that we expect as a result of higher volume purchases; by accelerating implementation of our 'Six Sigma' initiative to achieve defect-free performance in manufacturing and other business processes, and applying this initiative to the former Honeywell businesses, to further enhance the quality of our products and services and increase productivity; by rationalizing corporate overhead costs through the elimination of redundant corporate functions and facilities; by reducing overhead in the combined company's aerospace businesses by eliminating redundancies in the sales and administrative functions and field service operations of these businesses; by integrating the two companies' research and development programs and achieving research and development efficiencies; by reducing the combined company's infrastructure costs by integrating AlliedSignal's and the former Honeywell's international operations and eliminating infrastructure redundancies; and by providing to the former Honeywell's business units administrative services in the areas of accounting, human resources, travel, information technology and training, through AlliedSignal's centralized shared services organization, and eliminating similar services currently provided by the former Honeywell to its business units. While we expect that we will be able to realize these cost savings, we can give no assurance that we will actually be able to do so. In February 2000, we completed the acquisition of Pittway Corporation (Pittway) for approximately $2.2 billion, including the assumption of the net debt of Pittway of approximately $167 million. Pittway had 1999 sales of approximately $1.6 billion. Pittway designs, manufactures and distributes security and fire systems for homes and buildings. In December 1999, we completed the acquisition of TriStar Aerospace Co. (TriStar) for approximately $300 million, which included the assumption of approximately $107 million of TriStar debt. TriStar had 1998 annual sales of approximately $200 million. TriStar distributes fasteners, fastening systems and related hardware and provides customized inventory management services to original equipment manufacturers of aircraft and aircraft components, commercial airlines, and aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul facilities. 11

In September 1999, we sold our Laminate Systems business for approximately $425 million in cash resulting in a pretax gain of $106 million. The Laminate Systems business had 1998 sales of approximately $400 million. In August 1999, we completed the acquisition of Johnson Matthey Electronics, a division of Johnson Matthey Plc, for approximately $655 millon in cash. Johnson Matthey Electronics supplies wafer fabrication materials and interconnect products to the electronics and telecommunications industries and had 1998 annual sales of approximately $670 million. AEROSPACE SALES Our 1999 and 1998 sales to aerospace customers were both approximately 42 percent of our total sales. Our 1999 and 1998 sales to aerospace original equipment manufacturers were 15 percent and 16 percent, respectively, of our total sales. If there were a large decline in sales of aircraft that use our components, operating results could be negatively impacted. In addition, our 1999 and 1998 sales to aftermarket customers of aerospace products and services were 19 percent and 18 percent, respectively, of our total sales. If there were a large decline in the number of flight hours for aircraft that use our components or services, operating results could be negatively impacted. U.S. GOVERNMENT SALES Sales to the U.S. Government (principally by our Aerospace Solutions segment), acting through its various departments and agencies and through prime contractors, amounted to $2,383, $2,693 and $2,655 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, which includes sales to the U.S. Department of Defense of $1,415, $1,658 and $1,618 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. We are affected by U.S. Government budget constraints for defense and space programs. U.S. defense spending increased slightly in 1999 and is also expected to increase slightly in 2000. In addition to normal business risks, companies engaged in supplying military and other equipment to the U.S. Government are subject to unusual risks, including dependence on Congressional appropriations and administrative allotment of funds, changes in governmental procurement legislation and regulations and other policies that may reflect military and political developments, significant changes in contract scheduling, complexity of designs and the rapidity with which they become obsolete, necessity for constant design improvements, intense competition for U.S. Government business necessitating increases in time and investment for design and development, difficulty of forecasting costs and schedules when bidding on developmental and highly sophisticated technical work and other factors characteristic of the industry. Changes are customary over the life of U.S. Government contracts, particularly development contracts, and generally result in adjustments of contract prices. We, like other government contractors, are subject to government investigations of business practices and compliance with government procurement regulations. Although such regulations provide that a contractor may be suspended or barred from government contracts under certain circumstances, and the outcome of pending government investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, we are not currently aware of any such investigations that we expect, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, we have a proactive business compliance program designed to ensure compliance and sound business practices. BACKLOG Our total backlog at year-end 1999 and 1998 was $8,736 and $9,400 million, respectively. We anticipate that approximately $6,400 million of the 1999 backlog will be filled in 2000. We believe that backlog is not a reliable indicator of our future sales because a substantial portion of the orders constituting this backlog may be canceled at the customer's option. 12

COMPETITION We are subject to active competition in substantially all product and service areas. Such competition is expected to continue in all geographic regions. Competitive conditions vary widely among the thousands of products and services provided by us, and vary country by country. Depending on the particular customer or market involved, our businesses compete on a variety of factors, such as price, quality, reliability, delivery, customer service, performance, applied technology, product innovation and product recognition. Brand identity, service to customers and quality are generally important competitive factors for our products and services, and there is considerable price competition. Other competitive factors for certain products include breadth of product line, research and development efforts and technical and managerial capability. While our competitive position varies among our products and services, we believe we are a significant factor in each of our major product and service classes. However, certain of our products and services are sold in competition with those of a large number of other companies, some of which have substantial financial resources and significant technological capabilities. In addition, some of our products compete with the captive component divisions of original equipment manufacturers. INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS We are engaged in manufacturing, sales and/or research and development mainly in the U.S., Europe, Canada, Asia and Latin America. U.S. exports and foreign manufactured products are significant to our operations. Our international operations, including U.S. exports, are potentially subject to a number of unique risks and limitations, including: fluctuations in currency value; exchange control regulations; wage and price controls; employment regulations; foreign investment laws; import and trade restrictions, including embargoes; and governmental instability. However, we have limited exposure in high risk countries and have taken action to mitigate such risks. Financial information related to geographic areas is included in Note 24 (Geographic Areas -- Financial Data) of Notes to Financial Statements in our 1999 Annual Report to Shareowners which is incorporated by reference. RAW MATERIALS The principal raw materials used in our operations are generally readily available. We experienced no significant or unusual problems in the purchase of key raw materials and commodities in 1999. We are not dependent on any one supplier for a material amount of our raw materials. However, we are highly dependent on our suppliers and subcontractors in order to meet commitments to our customers. In addition, many major components and product equipment items are procured or subcontracted on a sole-source basis with a number of domestic and foreign companies. We maintain a qualification and performance surveillance process to control risk associated with such reliance on third parties. While we believe that sources of supply for raw materials and components are generally adequate, it is difficult to predict what effects shortages or price increases may have in the future. However, at present, we have no reason to believe a shortage of raw materials will cause any material adverse impact during 2000. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES AND DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS Our business as a whole, and that of our strategic business units, are not dependent upon any single patent or related group of patents, or any licenses or distribution rights. We own, or are licensed under, a large number of patents, patent applications and trademarks acquired over a period of many years, which relate to many of our products or improvements thereon and are of importance to our business. From time to time, new patents and trademarks are obtained, and patent and trademark licenses and rights are acquired from others. We also have distribution rights of varying terms for a number of products and services produced by other companies. In the judgment of management, such rights are adequate for the conduct of the business being done by us. We believe that, in the aggregate, the rights under such patents, trademarks and licenses are generally important to our operations, but we do not consider that any patent, trademark or related group of patents, or any licensing or distribution rights related to a specific process or product are of material importance in 13

relation to our total business. See Item 3 at page 15 of this Form 10-K for information concerning litigation relating to patents in which we are involved. We have registered trademarks for a number of our products, including such consumer brands as Honeywell, Prestone, FRAM, Anso and Autolite. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Our research activities are directed toward the discovery and development of new products and processes, improvements in existing products and processes, and the development of new uses of existing products. Research and development expense totaled $909, $876 and $796 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Customer-sponsored (principally the U.S. Government) research and development activities amounted to an additional $682, $718 and $850 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. ENVIRONMENT We are subject to various federal, state and local requirements regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. It is our policy to comply with these requirements and we believe that, as a general matter, our policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage, and of resulting financial liability, in connection with our business. Some risk of environmental damage is, however, inherent in certain of our operations and products, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses. We are and have been engaged in the handling, manufacture, use or disposal of many substances classified as hazardous or toxic by one or more regulatory agencies. We believe that, as a general matter, our handling, manufacture, use and disposal of such substances are in accord with environmental laws and regulations. It is possible, however, that future knowledge or other developments, such as improved capability to detect substances in the environment or increasingly strict environmental laws and standards and enforcement policies thereunder, could bring into question our handling, manufacture, use or disposal of such substances. Among other environmental requirements, we are subject to the federal superfund law, and similar state laws, under which we have been designated as a potentially responsible party that may be liable for cleanup costs associated with various hazardous waste sites, some of which are on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's superfund priority list. Although, under some court interpretations of these laws, there is a possibility that a responsible party might have to bear more than its proportional share of the cleanup costs if it is unable to obtain appropriate contribution from other responsible parties, we have not had to bear significantly more than our proportional share in multi- party situations taken as a whole. Capital expenditures for environmental control facilities at existing operations were $40 million in 1999. In addition to capital expenditures, we have incurred and will continue to incur operating costs in connection with such facilities. Reference is made to Management's Discussion and Analysis at page 35 of our 1999 Annual Report to Shareowners, incorporated herein by reference, for further information regarding environmental matters. EMPLOYEES We have approximately 120,000 employees at December 31, 1999. Approximately 81,500 were located in the United States, and, of these employees, about 20% were unionized employees represented by various local or national unions. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We have approximately 950 locations consisting of plants, research laboratories, sales offices and other facilities. The plants are generally located to serve large marketing areas and to provide accessibility to raw materials and labor pools. The properties are generally maintained in good operating condition. Utilization of these plants may vary with government spending and other business conditions; however, no major operating facility is significantly idle. The facilities, together with planned 14

expansions, are expected to meet our needs for the foreseeable future. We own or lease warehouses, railroad cars, barges, automobiles, trucks, airplanes and materials handling and data processing equipment. We also lease space for administrative and sales staffs. Our headquarters and administrative complex is located at Morris Township, New Jersey.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP did not audit the financial statements of Honeywell Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, which statements reflect total assets of $7,170.4 million at December 31, 1998, and total sales of $8,426.7 and $8,027.5 million for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1998. Such financial statements were audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP whose audit opinion on such statements was as follows: Independent Auditors' Report ---------------------------- To the Shareowners of Honeywell Inc.: We have audited the statement of financial position of Honeywell Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of income, shareowners' equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1998 (not separately included herein). These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 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 that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Honeywell Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Deloitte & Touche LLP Minneapolis, Minnesota February 10, 1999 With the exception of the aforementioned information and the information incorporated by reference in Items 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 7A, the 1999 Annual Report to Shareowners is not to be deemed filed as part of this Form 10-K Annual Report.

16 from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount (based in respect of any Revolving Credit Advance denominated in a Major Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing), not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender's Commitment, provided that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be deemed used from time to time to the extent of the aggregate amount (based in respect of any Competitive Bid Advance denominated in a Foreign Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars at such time) of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding and such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall be allocated among the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments (such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments being a "Competitive Bid Reduction"). Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Major Currency determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Major Currency determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) in excess thereof and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments; provided, however, that if there is no unused portion of the Commitment of one or more Lenders at the time of any requested Revolving Credit Borrowing such Borrowing shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lender or Lenders who do then have an unused portion of their Commitments ratably according to the unused portion of such Commitments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Revolving Credit Borrowing may be made in a Major Currency if, after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Major Currencies, together with the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies, would exceed $500,000,000. Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, any Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.01. SECTION 2.02. Making the Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in any Major Currency, (y) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars or (z) 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by any Borrower to the Agent (and the Agent shall, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, immediately relay such notice to the Sub-Agent), which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or telex. Each such notice of a Revolving Credit Borrowing (a "Notice of Revolving Credit

17 Borrowing") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier or telex in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, initial Interest Period and currency for each such Revolving Credit Advance. Each Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Advances denominated in Dollars, and before 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in any Major Currency, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the applicable Agent's account, in same day funds, such Lender's ratable portion (as determined in accordance with Section 2.01) of such Revolving Credit Borrowing. After the Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower requesting the Revolving Credit Borrowing at the Agent's aforesaid address or at the applicable Payment Office, as the case may be. (b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for any proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.08 or 2.11. (c) Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing of any Borrower shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. In the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that the related Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Borrower requesting such Revolving Credit Borrowing shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by such Borrower to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing for such Revolving Credit Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing when such Revolving Credit Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower proposing such Revolving Credit Borrowing on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made

18 such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, (A) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in any Major Currency. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's Revolving Credit Advance as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it as part of any Revolving Credit Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing. SECTION 2.03. The Competitive Bid Advances. (a) Each Lender severally agrees that any Borrower may request Competitive Bid Borrowings under this Section 2.03 from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the date occurring seven days prior to the Termination Date in the manner set forth below; provided that, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the aggregate amount (based in respect of any Advance denominated in a Foreign Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars on such Business Day) of the Advances then outstanding shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders (computed without regard to any Competitive Bid Reduction). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Competitive Bid Borrowing may be made in a Foreign Currency if, after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies, together with the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Major Currencies, would exceed $500,000,000. (i) Any Borrower may request a Competitive Bid Borrowing under this Section 2.03 by delivering to the Agent (and the Agent shall, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing not consisting of Fixed Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances to be denominated in Dollars, immediately notify the Sub-Agent), by telecopier or telex, a notice of a Competitive Bid Borrowing (a "Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing"), in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, (B) aggregate amount of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, (C) interest rate basis and day count convention to be offered by the Lenders,

19 (D) currency of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, (E) in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of LIBO Rate Advances, Interest Period of each Competitive Bid Advance to be made as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, or in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Advances or Local Rate Advances, maturity date for repayment of each Fixed Rate Advance or Local Rate Advance to be made as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing (which maturity date may not be earlier than the date occurring five days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing or later than the Termination Date), (F) interest payment date or dates relating thereto, (G) location of such Borrower's account to which funds are to be advanced, and (H) other terms (if any) to be applicable to such Competitive Bid Borrowing, not later than (w) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) at least one Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if such Borrower shall specify in its Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the rates of interest to be offered by the Lenders shall be fixed rates per annum (each Advance comprising any such Competitive Bid Borrowing being referred to herein as a "Fixed Rate Advance") and that the Advances comprising such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars, (x) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) at least four Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if such Borrower shall instead specify in its Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the Advances comprising such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be LIBO Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, (y) 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if such Borrower shall specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the Advances comprising such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be either Fixed Rate Advances denominated in any Foreign Currency or Local Rate Advances denominated in any Foreign Currency and (z) 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if such Borrower shall instead specify in its Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the Advances comprising such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be LIBO Rate Advances denominated in any Foreign Currency. Each Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. Any Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing by a Designated Subsidiary shall be given to the Agent in accordance with the preceding sentence through the Company on behalf of such Designated Subsidiary. The Agent shall in turn promptly notify each Lender of each request for a Competitive Bid Borrowing received by it from such Borrower by sending such Lender a copy of the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. (ii) Each Lender may, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more Competitive Bid Advances to the Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Borrowing as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest specified by such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Agent (which shall give prompt notice thereof to such Borrower and to the Sub-Agent, if applicable), (A) before 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, (B) before 10:00 A.M.

If any Lender shall elect not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify the Agent, before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) (and the Agent shall notify the Sub-Agent, if applicable) on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the Agent by the other Lenders, and such Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any Competitive Bid Advance as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing. (iii) The Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Advance shall, in turn, (A) before 10:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, (B) before 11:00 A.M.

21 (x) cancel such Competitive Bid Borrowing by giving the Agent notice to that effect, or (y) accept one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (ii) above, in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Agent (and the Agent shall give notice to the Sub-Agent, if applicable) of the amount of each Competitive Bid Advance (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to such Borrower by the Agent on behalf of such Lender for such Competitive Bid Advance pursuant to paragraph (ii) above) to be made by each Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, and reject any remaining offers made by Lenders pursuant to paragraph (ii) above by giving the Agent notice to that effect; provided, however, that such Borrower shall not accept any offer in excess of the requested bid amount for any maturity. Such Borrower shall accept the offers made by any Lender or Lenders to make Competitive Bid Advances in order of the lowest to the highest rates of interest offered by such Lenders. If two or more Lenders have offered the same interest rate, the amount to be borrowed at such interest rate will be allocated among such Lenders in proportion to the amount that each such Lender offered at such interest rate. (iv) If the Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Borrowing notifies the Agent that such Competitive Bid Borrowing is canceled pursuant to paragraph (iii)(x) above, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made. (v) If the Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Borrowing accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y) above, the Agent shall in turn promptly notify (A) each Lender that has made an offer as described in paragraph (ii) above, of the date and aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing and whether or not any offer or offers made by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (ii) above have been accepted by the Borrower, (B) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, of the amount of each Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, and (C) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, upon receipt, that the Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfill the applicable conditions set forth in Article III. Each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time), in the case of Competitive Bid Advances to be denominated in Dollars or 11:00 A.M. (London time), in the case of Competitive Bid Advances to be denominated in any Foreign Currency, on the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing specified in the notice received from the Agent pursuant to clause (A) of the preceding sentence or any later time

22 when such Lender shall have received notice from the Agent pursuant to clause (C) of the preceding sentence, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent (x) in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing denominated in Dollars, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, in same day funds, such Lender's portion of such Competitive Bid Borrowing in Dollars, and (y) in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing in a Foreign Currency, at the Payment Office for such Foreign Currency as shall have been notified by the Agent to the Lenders prior thereto, in same day funds, such Lender's portion of such Competitive Bid Borrowing in such Foreign Currency. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III and after receipt by the Agent of such funds, the Agent will make such funds available to such Borrower's account at the location specified by such Borrower in its Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. Promptly after each Competitive Bid Borrowing the Agent will notify each Lender of the amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, the consequent Competitive Bid Reduction and the dates upon which such Competitive Bid Reduction commenced and will terminate. (vi) If the Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Borrowing notifies the Agent that it accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y) above, such notice of acceptance shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. Such Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by such Borrower to fulfill on or before the date specified in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing for such Competitive Bid Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing when such Competitive Bid Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (b) Each Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Foreign Currency, determined as of the time of the applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Foreign Currency, determined as of the time of the applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing) in excess thereof and, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the Borrower that has borrowed such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be in compliance with the limitation set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of subsection (a) above. (c) Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this Section 2.03, any Borrower may from time to time borrow under this Section 2.03, repay or prepay pursuant to subsection (d) below, and reborrow under this Section 2.03, provided that a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made within three Business Days of the date of any other Competitive Bid Borrowing.

Such Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Competitive Bid Advance unless, and then only on the terms, specified by such Borrower for such Competitive Bid Advance in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above and set forth in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance. (e) Each Borrower that has borrowed through a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance comprising such Competitive Bid Borrowing from the date of such Competitive Bid Advance to the date the principal amount of such Competitive Bid Advance is repaid in full, at the rate of interest for such Competitive Bid Advance specified by the Lender making such Competitive Bid Advance in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(ii) above, payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by such Borrower for such Competitive Bid Advance in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above, as provided in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), such Borrower shall pay interest on the amount of unpaid principal of and interest on each Competitive Bid Advance owing to a Lender, payable in arrears on the date or dates interest is payable thereon, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Competitive Bid Advance under the terms of the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance unless otherwise agreed in such Competitive Bid Note. (f) The indebtedness of any Borrower resulting from each Competitive Bid Advance made to such Borrower as part of a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be evidenced by a separate Competitive Bid Note of the Borrower payable to the order of the Lender making such Competitive Bid Advance.

The Company agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee on the aggregate amount of such Lender's Commitment from the date hereof in the case of each Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Acceptance, as the case may be, pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing December 31, 1999, and on the Termination Date.

24 (b) Agent's Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agent for its own account such fees, and at such times, as the Company and the Agent may separately agree. SECTION 2.05. Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. (a) Optional Ratable Termination or Reduction. The Company shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and provided further that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus the Equivalent in Dollars (determined as of the date of the notice of prepayment) of the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies then outstanding. The aggregate amount of the Commitments, once reduced as provided in this Section 2.05(a), may not be reinstated. (b) Non-Ratable Termination by Assignment. The Company shall have the right, upon at least ten Business Days' written notice to the Agent (which shall then give prompt notice thereof to the relevant Lender), to require any Lender to assign, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the Notes to an Eligible Assignee selected by the Company; provided, however, that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such request and at the time of such assignment; (ii) the assignee shall have paid to the assigning Lender the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the date of such assignment on, the Note or Notes of such Lender; (iii) the Company shall have paid to the assigning Lender any and all facility fees and other fees payable to such Lender and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Lender under any provision of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other additional amounts owing under Section 2.10 and any indemnification for Taxes under Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment; and (iv) if the assignee selected by the Company is not an existing Lender, such assignee or the Company shall have paid the processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that the Company shall have no right to replace more than three Lenders in any calendar year pursuant to this Section 2.05(b); and provided further that the assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the date of assignment. (c) Non-Ratable Reduction. (i) The Company shall have the right, at any time other than during any Rating Condition, upon at least ten Business Days' notice to a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), to terminate in whole such Lender's Commitment (determined without giving effect to any Competitive Bid Reduction). Such termination shall be effective, (i) with respect to such Lender's unused Commitment, on the date set forth in such notice, provided, however, that such date shall be no earlier than ten Business Days after receipt of such notice and (ii) with respect to

25 each Advance outstanding to such Lender, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating to such Advance; provided further, however, that such termination shall not be effective, if, after giving effect to such termination, the Company would, under this Section 2.05(c), reduce the Lenders' Commitments in any calendar year by an amount in excess of the Commitments of any three Lenders or $480,000,000, whichever is greater on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the preceding proviso, the Company may terminate in whole the Commitment of any Lender in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.05(b) or 2.16(b). Upon termination of a Lender's Commitment under this Section 2.05(c), the Company will pay or cause to be paid all principal of, and interest accrued to the date of such payment on, Advances owing to such Lender and pay any facility fees or other fees payable to such Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.04, and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other amounts owing under Section 2.10 and any indemnification for Taxes under Section 2.13); and upon such payments, the obligations of such Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged; provided, however, that such Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05 shall survive such release and discharge as to matters occurring prior to such date. The aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders once reduced pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) may not be reinstated. (ii) For purposes of this Section 2.05(c) only, the term "Rating Condition" shall mean a period commencing with notice (a "Rating Condition Notice") by the Agent to the Company and the Lenders to the effect that the Agent has been informed that the rating of the senior public Debt of the Company is unsatisfactory under the standard set forth in the next sentence, and ending with notice by the Agent to the Company and the Lenders to the effect that such condition no longer exists. The Agent shall give a Rating Condition Notice promptly upon receipt from the Company or any Lender of notice stating, in effect, that both of S&P and Moody's (or any successor by merger or consolidation to the business of either thereof), respectively, then rate the senior public Debt of the Company lower than BBB- and Baa3. The Company agrees to give notice to the Agent forthwith upon any change in a rating by either such organization of the senior public Debt of the Company; the Agent shall have no duty whatsoever to verify the accuracy of any such notice from the Company or any Lender or to monitor independently the ratings of the senior public Debt of the Company and no Lender shall have any duty to give any such notice. The Agent shall give notice to the Lenders and the Company as to the termination of a Rating Condition promptly upon receiving a notice from the Company to the Agent (which notice the Agent shall promptly notify to the Lenders) stating that the rating of the senior public Debt of the Company does not meet the standard set forth in the second sentence of this clause (ii), and requesting that the Agent notify the Lenders of the termination of the Rating Condition. The Rating Condition shall terminate upon the giving of such notice by the Agent. (d) Termination by a Lender. In the event that a Change of Control occurs, each Lender may, by notice to the Company and the Agent given not later than 50 calendar days after

26 such Change of Control, terminate its Commitment, which Commitment shall be terminated effective as of the later of (i) the date that is 60 calendar days after such Change of Control or (ii) the end of the Interest Period for any Advance outstanding at the time of such Change of Control or for any Advance made pursuant to the next sentence of this Section 2.05(d). Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Borrower's right to make a Borrowing under this Agreement shall be suspended for a period of 60 calendar days, except for Advances having an interest period ending not later than 90 calendar days after such Change of Control. A notice of termination pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) shall not have the effect of accelerating any outstanding Advance of such Lender and the Notes of such Lender. (e) Mandatory Reduction. To the extent that the Company has not on or prior to March 31, 2000 reduced the aggregate Commitments to $1,000,000,000 or less, on March 31, 2000 the aggregate Commitments shall be reduced to $1,000,000,000 and the Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced ratably. SECTION 2.06. Repayment of Advances. (a) Revolving Credit Advances. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances made to it outstanding on such date. (b) Competitive Bid Advances. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that has made a Competitive Bid Advance, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance made to such Borrower and owing to such Lender on the earlier of (i) the maturity date therefor, specified in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(i) and (ii) the Termination Date. SECTION 2.07. Interest on Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance owing by such Borrower to each Lender from the date of such Revolving Credit Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: (i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Revolving Credit Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be paid in full. (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Revolving Credit Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if

27 such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), each Borrower shall pay interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance owing by such Borrower to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder by such Borrower that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above. SECTION 2.08. Interest Rate Determination. (a) Each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Agent timely information for the purpose of determining each Eurocurrency Rate and each LIBO Rate if the applicable Telerate Page is unavailable. If any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the Agent for the purpose of determining any such interest rate, the Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or (ii), and the rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose of determining the interest rate under Section 2.07(a)(ii). (b) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Majority Lenders notify the Agent that (i) they are unable to obtain matching deposits in the London interbank market at or about 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the making of a Borrowing in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Revolving Credit Advances as part of such Borrowing during its Interest Period or (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith so notify each Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (A) the Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in any Major Currency, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) redenominate such Advances into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances, and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the same currency as such Eurocurrency Rate Advances

28 shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify each Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. (c) If any Borrower, in requesting a Revolving Credit Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, shall fail to select the duration of the Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section 1.01, the Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will (to the extent such Eurocurrency Rate Advances remain outstanding on such day) automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, Convert into Base Rate Advances and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in any Major Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be Converted into Base Rate Advances. (d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will (to the extent such Eurocurrency Rate Advance remains outstanding on such day) automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in any Major Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended. (e) If the applicable Telerate Page is unavailable and fewer than two Reference Banks furnish timely information to the Agent for determining the Eurocurrency Rate or LIBO Rate for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances, as the case may be, (i) the Agent shall forthwith notify the relevant Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances, as the case may be, (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Advances, each such Advance will (to the extent such Eurocurrency Rate Advance remains outstanding on such day) automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, be prepaid by the applicable Borrower or be automatically Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in any Major Currency, be prepaid by the applicable Borrower or be automatically redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converted into a Base Rate Advance (or if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and

29 (iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. SECTION 2.09. Prepayments of Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Optional Prepayments. Each Borrower may, upon notice to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to the date of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, and, if such notice is given, such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances comprising part of the same Revolving Credit Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $10,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in a Major Currency (determined on the date notice of prepayment is given) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in a Major Currency (determined on the date notice of prepayment is given) in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). Each notice of prepayment by a Designated Subsidiary shall be given to the Administrative Agent through the Company. (b) Mandatory Prepayments. (i) If, on any date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars (determined on the third Business Day prior to such date) of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies then outstanding exceeds 103% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Company and each other Borrower, if any, shall thereupon promptly prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances owing by such Borrower in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a LIBO Rate Advance or a Local Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). The Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.09(b)(i) to the Borrowers and the Lenders. (ii) If, on any date, the sum of (A) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Major Currencies then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies then outstanding, shall exceed 110% of

30 $500,000,000, the Company and each other Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of any such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or any such LIBO Rate Advances owing by such Borrower, on the last day of the Interest Periods relating to such Advances, in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed $500,000,000, together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid. The Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.09(b)(ii) to the Borrowers and the Lenders. SECTION 2.10. Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.10 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower of such Advances shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to such Borrower and the Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender's commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Company shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender's commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Company and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall, upon the written request of the Company delivered to such Lender and the Agent, assign, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07, all of its rights and obligations

31 under this Agreement and under the Notes to an Eligible Assignee selected by the Company; provided, however, that (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such request and at the time of such assignment; (ii) the assignee shall have paid to the assigning Lender the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the date of such assignment on, the Note or Notes of such Lender; (iii) the Company shall have paid to the assigning Lender any and all facility fees and other fees payable to such Lender and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Lender under any provision of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other additional amounts owing under this Section 2.10, and any indemnification for Taxes under Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment and (iv) if the assignee selected by the Company is not an existing Lender, such assignee or the Company shall have paid the processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that the assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the date of assignment. SECTION 2.11. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or any Major Currency or LIBO Rate Advances in Dollars or in any Foreign Currency or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or in any Major Currency or LIBO Rate Advances in Dollars or in any Foreign Currency hereunder, (a) each such Eurocurrency Rate Advance or such LIBO Rate Advance, as the case may be, will automatically, upon such demand, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.07(a)(i), as the case may be, and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance is denominated in any Foreign Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converted into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.07(a)(i), as the case may be, and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or such LIBO Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. SECTION 2.12. Payments and Computations. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under any Notes, except with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a Foreign Currency, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Agent at the applicable Agent's Account in same day funds. Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under any Notes with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to Advances denominated in a Foreign Currency not later than 12:00 Noon (at the Payment Office for such Foreign Currency) on the day when due in such Foreign Currency to the Agent in same day funds by deposit of such funds to the

32 applicable Agent's Account. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or facility fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.05(b), 2.05(c), 2.10, 2.13, 2.16 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of the effectiveness of an extension of the Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.16, and upon the Agent's receipt of such Lender's Assumption Agreement and recording the information contained therein in the Register, from and after the Increase Date or the Extension Date, as the case may be, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any Notes in respect of the interest assumed thereby to the Assuming Lender. (b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate and of facility fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days and all computations in respect of Competitive Bid Advances shall be made by the Agent or the Sub-Agent, as the case may be, as specified in the applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing (or, in each case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies where market practice differs, in accordance with market practice), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or facility fees are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or facility fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed

33 to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies. SECTION 2.13. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by any Borrower (including the Company in its capacity as a guarantor under Article VII hereof) hereunder or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Agent, net income taxes imposed by the United States and taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If any Borrower (including the Company in its capacity as a guarantor under Article VII hereof) shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Lender or the Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13) imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that a Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amounts in respect of penalties, interest or expenses pursuant to this paragraph that are payable solely as a result

34 of (i) the failure on the part of the pertinent Lender or the Agent to pay over those amounts received from the Borrowers under this clause (c) or (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the pertinent Lender or the Agent. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. Each Lender agrees to provide reasonably prompt notice to the Agent, the Company and any Borrower of any imposition of Taxes or Other Taxes against such Lender; provided that failure to give such notice shall not affect such Lender's rights to indemnification hereunder. Each Lender agrees that it will, promptly upon a request by the Company or a Borrower having made an indemnification payment hereunder, furnish to the Company or such Borrower, as the case may be, such evidence as is reasonably available to such Lender as to the payment of the relevant Taxes or Other Taxes, and that it will, if requested by the Company or such Borrower, cooperate with the Company or such Borrower, as the case may be, in its efforts to obtain a refund or similar relief in respect of such payment. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, each Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes by or on behalf of any Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of any Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Borrower determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. (e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance or the Assumption Agreement, as the case may be, pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by any Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Agent and each Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service forms 1001 or 4224, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes. In addition, each Lender further agrees to provide any Borrower with any form or document as any Borrower may request which is required by any taxing authority outside the United States in order to secure an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding tax. If the forms provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded

35 from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance or the Assumption Agreement, as the case may be, pursuant to which a Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, such Lender was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to such Lender on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form 1001 or 4224, that a Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender shall give notice thereof to each Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide each Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.13(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.13(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, each Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes. (g) If any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to the Agent or on behalf of any of them to any taxing authority pursuant to this Section 2.13, such Lender shall, upon the written request of the Company delivered to such Lender and the Agent, assign, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the Notes to an Eligible Assignee selected by the Company; provided, however, that (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such request and at the time of such assignment; (ii) the assignee shall have paid to the assigning Lender the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the date of such assignment on, the Note or Notes of such Lender; (iii) the Company shall have paid to the assigning Lender any and all facility fees and other fees payable to such Lender and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Lender under any provision of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other additional amounts owing under Section 2.10, and any indemnification for Taxes under this Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment; and (iv) if the assignee selected by the Company is not an existing Lender, such assignee or the Company shall have paid the processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that the assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the date of assignment.

36 SECTION 2.14. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.05(b), 2.05(c), 2.10, 2.13, 2.16 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Revolving Credit Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Revolving Credit Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. SECTION 2.15. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, backstop of commercial paper. SECTION 2.16. Extension of Termination Date. (a) At least 45 (but no earlier than 60) days prior to the Termination Date then in effect and provided all representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may, at its option, by written notice to the Agent, request that the Lenders extend the Termination Date for an additional 364 days from the Termination Date then in effect. Each Lender, in its sole discretion, shall consent or not consent to such extension and shall notify the Agent of its consent or nonconsent to such extension within 20 Business Days of notice of such request from the Agent. If all of the Lenders consent in writing, the then applicable Termination Date shall, effective as at such Termination Date (the "Extension Date"), be extended for a period of 364 days from such Extension Date. (b) If not all of the Lenders consent, pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, to an extension of the Termination Date then in effect (the Lenders so consenting in writing being the "Consenting Lenders", and any Lender not so consenting being a "Non-Consenting Lender"), the Company may: (i) arrange for one or more Consenting Lenders or other Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders to assume, effective on the Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Lender's Commitment and all of the obligations of such Lender under this Agreement thereafter

37 arising, and effective on such Extension Date, each such Consenting Lender or such Assuming Lender will be substituted for such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, that the amount of the Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less than $10,000,000; provided further that (i) any such Consenting Lender or Assuming Lender shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Lender the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the date of the assignment on, the Advances of such Non-Consenting Lender; (ii) the Company shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Lender any and all facility fees and other fees payable to such Non-Consenting Lender and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Lender under any provision of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other additional amounts owing under Section 2.10, and any indemnification for Taxes under this Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment; and (iii) with respect to any such Assuming Lender, such Assuming Lender or the Company shall have paid the applicable processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that such Non-Consenting Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution; provided further that, on or prior to the tenth day prior to the Extension Date, (x) any such Assuming Lender shall have delivered to the Company and the Agent an Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, duly executed by such Assuming Lender, such Non-Consenting Lender and the Company, (y) any such Consenting Bank shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Agent as to its increased Commitment and (z) each Non-Consenting Lender being replaced pursuant to this clause (i) shall have delivered to the Agent any Revolving Credit Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting Lender; and provided further that, if requested by any Assuming Lender, each Borrower, at its own expense, shall have executed and delivered to the Agent no later than 10:00 A.M.

Since December 31, 1998, there has been no Material Adverse Change. (f) There is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding, including, without limitation, any Environmental Action, pending or to the knowledge of the Company

46 Threatened affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that (i) is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Litigation), or (ii) purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Note or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and there has been no adverse change in the status, or financial effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, of the Disclosed Litigation from that described on Schedule 3.01(b) hereto. (g) Following application of the proceeds of each Advance, not more than 25 percent of the value of the assets (either of the Borrower of such Advance or of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis) subject to the provisions of Section 5.02(a) or subject to any restriction contained in any agreement or instrument between such Borrower and any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender relating to Debt and within the scope of Section 6.01(e) will be margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). (h) The Company and each wholly-owned direct Subsidiary of the Company have, in the aggregate, met their minimum funding requirements under ERISA with respect to their Plans in all material respects and have not incurred any material liability to the PBGC, other than for the payment of premiums, in connection with such Plans. (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Plan of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates that has resulted in or is reasonably likely to result in a material liability of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates. (j) The Schedules B (Actuarial Information) to the 1998 annual reports (Form 5500 Series) with respect to each Plan of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates, copies of which have been filed with the Internal Revenue Service (and which will be furnished to any Bank through the Administrative Agent upon the request of such Bank through the Administrative Agent to the Company), are complete and accurate in all material respects and fairly present in all material respects the funding status of such Plans at such date, and since the date of each such Schedule B there has been no material adverse change in funding status.

47 (l) Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has been notified by the sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or has been terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA. No such Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, in a reorganization or termination which might reasonably be expected to result in a liability of the Company in an amount in excess of $5,000,000. (m) The Company is not, and immediately after the application by the Company of the proceeds of each Loan will not be, (a) an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) a "holding company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

To the best of the Company's knowledge no circumstances exist that would be reasonably likely to form the basis of an Environmental Action against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties that could have a Material Adverse Effect. (i) The Company has (i) initiated a review and assessment of all areas within its and each of its Subsidiaries' business and operations (including those affected by suppliers, vendors and customers) that could be adversely affected by the risk that computer applications used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or suppliers, vendors and customers) may be unable to recognize and perform properly date sensitive functions involving certain dates prior to and any date after December 31, 1999 (the "Year 2000 Problem"), (ii) developed a plan and timetable for addressing the Year 2000 Problem on a timely basis and (iii) to date, implemented that plan in accordance with such timetable. Based on the foregoing, the Company believes that all computer applications (including those of its suppliers, vendors and customers) that are material to its or any of its Subsidiaries' business and operations are reasonably expected on a timely basis to be able to perform properly date-sensitive functions for all dates before, on and after January 1, 2000, except to the extent that a failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and each Lender and each of their Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of, or in connection with the preparation for a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Company, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, except to the extent any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense has resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnified Party on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances. (c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.03(d), 2.05(b), 2.09(a) or (b), 2.11 or 2.16, acceleration of the maturity of the

65 Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. (d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes and the termination in whole of any Commitment hereunder. SECTION 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note of such Borrower held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the relevant Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have. SECTION 9.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective (other than Sections 2.01 and 2.03, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01) when it shall have been executed by the Company and the Agent and when the Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Borrower, the Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders. SECTION 9.07. Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may at any time, with notice to the Company prior to making any proposal to any potential assignee and with the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (and shall at any time, if requested to do so by the Company pursuant to Section 2.05(b), 2.10 or 2.13) assign to one or

66 more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it and the Revolving Credit Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) the Company's consent shall not be required (A) in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender, provided that notice thereof shall have been given to the Company and the Agent, or (B) in the case of an assignment of the type described in subsection (g) below; (ii) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any right to make Competitive Bid Advances, Competitive Bid Advances owing to it and Competitive Bid Notes); (iii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; (iv) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (v) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Company pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) shall be arranged by the Company after consultation with, and subject to the approval of, the Agent, and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (vi) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrower or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement and all of the obligations of the Borrower to such Lender shall have been satisfied; and (vii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and, if the assigning Lender is not retaining a Commitment hereunder, any Revolving Credit Note subject to such assignment. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, provided, however, that such assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment).

67 (b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower or the performance or observance by such Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (c) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Revolving Credit Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Company and to each other Borrower. (d) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Company, each other Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, any other Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

68 (e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Company and the other Borrowers hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Company, any other Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation and (vi) within 30 days of the effective date of such participation, such Lender shall provide notice of such participation to the Company. (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Company or any Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of such Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to such Borrower received by it from such Lender. (g) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time assign or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. SECTION 9.08. Designated Subsidiaries. (a) Designation. The Company may at any time, and from time to time, by delivery to the Agent of a Designation Letter duly executed by the Company and the respective Subsidiary and substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, designate such Subsidiary as a "Designated Subsidiary" for purposes of this Agreement and such Subsidiary shall thereupon become a "Designated Subsidiary" for purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by the Company and the identity of the respective Subsidiary.

69 (b) Termination. Upon the payment and performance in full of all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes of any Designated Subsidiary then, so long as at the time no Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing or Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing in respect of such Designated Subsidiary is outstanding, such Subsidiary's status as a "Designated Subsidiary" shall terminate upon notice to such effect from the Agent to the Lenders (which notice the Agent shall give promptly upon its receipt of a request therefor from the Company). Thereafter, the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Advance hereunder to such Designated Subsidiary. SECTION 9.09. Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders and the Agent hereby agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (e.g., procedures substantially comparable to those applied by such Lender or the Agent in respect of non-public information as to the business of such Lender or the Agent) to keep confidential any financial reports and other information from time to time supplied to it by the Company hereunder to the extent that such information is not and does not become publicly available and which the Company indicates at the time is to be treated confidentially, provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect the disclosure of any such information (i) by the Agent to any Lender, (ii) to the extent required by law (including statute, rule, regulation or judicial process), (iii) to counsel for any Lender or the Agent or to their respective independent public accountants, (iv) to bank examiners and auditors and appropriate government examining authorities, (v) to the Agent or any other Lender, (vi) in connection with any litigation to which any Lender or the Agent is a party, (vii) to actual or prospective assignees and participants as contemplated by Section 9.07(f) or (viii) to any Affiliate of the Agent or any Lender or to such Affiliate's officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such Affiliate or such Affiliate's officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors, as the case may be, shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Company received by it; a determination by a Lender or the Agent as to the application of the circumstances described in the foregoing clauses (i)-(viii) being conclusive if made in good faith; and each of the Lenders and the Agent agrees that it will follow procedures which are intended to put any transferee of such confidential information on notice that such information is confidential. SECTION 9.10. Mitigation of Yield Protection. Each Lender hereby agrees that, commencing as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a), 2.11 or 2.13 with respect to such Lender, such Lender will give notice thereof through the Agent to the respective Borrower. A Borrower may at any time, by notice through the Agent to any Lender, request that such Lender change its Applicable Lending Office as to any Advance or Type of Advance or that it specify a new Applicable Lending Office with respect to its Commitment and any Advance held by it or that it rebook any such Advance with a view to avoiding or mitigating the consequences of an occurrence such as described in the preceding sentence, and such Lender will use reasonable efforts to comply with such request unless, in the opinion of such Lender, such change or specification or rebooking is inadvisable or might have an adverse effect, economic or otherwise, upon it, including its reputation. In addition, each Lender

70 agrees that, except for changes or specifications or rebookings required by law or effected pursuant to the preceding sentence, if the result of any change or change of specification of Applicable Lending Office or rebooking would, but for this sentence, be to impose additional costs or requirements upon the respective Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(a), Section 2.11 or Section 2.13 (which would not be imposed absent such change or change of specification or rebooking) by reason of legal or regulatory requirements in effect at the time thereof and of which such Lender is aware at such time, then such costs or requirements shall not be imposed upon such Borrower but shall be borne by such Lender. All expenses incurred by any Bank in changing an Applicable Lending Office or specifying another Applicable Lending Office of such Lender or rebooking any Advance in response to a request from a Borrower shall be paid by such Borrower. Nothing in this Section 9.10 (including, without limitation, any failure by a Lender to give any notice contemplated in the first sentence hereof) shall limit, reduce or postpone any obligations of the respective Borrower under Section 2.10(a), Section 2.11 or Section 2.13, including any obligations payable in respect of any period prior to the date of any change or specification of a new Applicable Lending Office or any rebooking of any Advance. SECTION 9.11. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. SECTION 9.12. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. SECTION 9.13. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Designated Subsidiary hereby agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in the any such New York State court or in such federal court may be made upon CT Corporation System at its offices at 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019 (the "Process Agent") and each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints the Process Agent its authorized agent to accept such service of process, and agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Each Borrower hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid,

71 to such Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.02. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes in the courts of any jurisdiction. To the extent that each Designated Subsidiary has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement. (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. SECTION 9.14. Substitution of Currency. If a change in any Foreign Currency occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definitions of Eurocurrency Rate and LIBO Rate) will be amended to the extent determined by the Agent (acting reasonably and in consultation with the Company) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrowers in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such Foreign Currency had occurred. SECTION 9.15. Final Agreement. This written agreement represents the full and final agreement between the parties with respect to the matters addressed herein and supercedes all prior communications, written or oral, with respect thereto. There are no unwritten agreements between the parties. SECTION 9.16. Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under the Notes in any currency (the "Original Currency") into another currency (the "Other Currency"), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency at 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the first Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. (b) The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Note or

72 Revolving Credit Notes held by such Lender shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Dollars with such Other Currency; if the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the Original Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the Original Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to such Borrower such excess.

73 SECTION 9.17. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Borrower, the Agent and each Lender hereby irrevocably waive all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes or the actions of the Agent or any Lender in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement thereof. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.

Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, any Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.01. SECTION 2.02. Making the Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in any Major Currency, (y) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars or (z) 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by any Borrower to the Agent (and the Agent shall, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, immediately relay such notice to the Sub-Agent), which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or telex. Each such notice of a Revolving Credit Borrowing (a "Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing") shall be by telephone, confirmed

19 immediately in writing, or telecopier or telex in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, initial Interest Period and currency for each such Revolving Credit Advance. Each Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Advances denominated in Dollars, and before 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in any Major Currency, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the applicable Agent's account, in same day funds, such Lender's ratable portion (as determined in accordance with Section 2.01) of such Revolving Credit Borrowing. After the Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower requesting the Revolving Credit Borrowing at the Agent's aforesaid address or at the applicable Payment Office, as the case may be. (b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for any proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.08 or 2.11. (c) Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing of any Borrower shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. In the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that the related Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Borrower requesting such Revolving Credit Borrowing shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by such Borrower to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing for such Revolving Credit Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing when such Revolving Credit Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower proposing such Revolving Credit Borrowing on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Revolving Credit

20 Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, (A) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in any Major Currency. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's Revolving Credit Advance as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it as part of any Revolving Credit Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Revolving Credit Borrowing.

(a) Each Lender severally agrees that any Borrower may request Competitive Bid Borrowings under this Section 2.03 from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the date occurring seven days prior to the Termination Date in the manner set forth below; provided that, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the aggregate amount (based in respect of any Advance denominated in a Foreign Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars on such Business Day) of the Advances then outstanding shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders (computed without regard to any Competitive Bid Reduction). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Competitive Bid Borrowing may be made in a Foreign Currency if, after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies, together with the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Major Currencies, would exceed $500,000,000.

27 Section 2.10 and any indemnification for Taxes under Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment; and (iv) if the assignee selected by the Company is not an existing Lender, such assignee or the Company shall have paid the processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that the Company shall have no right to replace more than three Lenders in any calendar year pursuant to this Section 2.05(b); and provided further that the assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the date of assignment. (c) Non-Ratable Reduction. (i) The Company shall have the right, at any time other than during any Rating Condition, upon at least ten Business Days' notice to a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), to terminate in whole such Lender's Commitment (determined without giving effect to any Competitive Bid Reduction). Such termination shall be effective, (i) with respect to such Lender's unused Commitment, on the date set forth in such notice, provided, however, that such date shall be no earlier than ten Business Days after receipt of such notice and (ii) with respect to each Advance outstanding to such Lender, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating to such Advance; provided further, however, that such termination shall not be effective, if, after giving effect to such termination, the Company would, under this Section 2.05(c), reduce the Lenders' Commitments in any calendar year by an amount in excess of the Commitments of any three Lenders or $240,000,000, whichever is greater on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the preceding proviso, the Company may terminate in whole the Commitment of any Lender in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.05(b). Upon termination of a Lender's Commitment under this Section 2.05(c), the Company will pay or cause to be paid all principal of, and interest accrued to the date of such payment on, Advances owing to such Lender and pay any facility fees or other fees payable to such Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.04, and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other amounts owing under Section 2.10 and any indemnification for Taxes under Section 2.13); and upon such payments, the obligations of such Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged; provided, however, that such Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05 shall survive such release and discharge as to matters occurring prior to such date. The aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders once reduced pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) may not be reinstated. (ii) For purposes of this Section 2.05(c) only, the term "Rating Condition" shall mean a period commencing with notice (a "Rating Condition Notice") by the Agent to the Company and the Lenders to the effect that the Agent has been informed that the rating of the senior public Debt of the Company is unsatisfactory under the standard set forth in the next sentence, and ending with notice by the Agent to the Company and the Lenders to the effect that such condition no longer exists. The Agent shall give a Rating Condition Notice promptly upon receipt from the Company or any Lender of notice stating, in effect, that both of S&P and

28 Moody's (or any successor by merger or consolidation to the business of either thereof), respectively, then rate the senior public Debt of the Company lower than BBB- and Baa3. The Company agrees to give notice to the Agent forthwith upon any change in a rating by either such organization of the senior public Debt of the Company; the Agent shall have no duty whatsoever to verify the accuracy of any such notice from the Company or any Lender or to monitor independently the ratings of the senior public Debt of the Company and no Lender shall have any duty to give any such notice. The Agent shall give notice to the Lenders and the Company as to the termination of a Rating Condition promptly upon receiving a notice from the Company to the Agent (which notice the Agent shall promptly notify to the Lenders) stating that the rating of the senior public Debt of the Company does not meet the standard set forth in the second sentence of this clause (ii), and requesting that the Agent notify the Lenders of the termination of the Rating Condition. The Rating Condition shall terminate upon the giving of such notice by the Agent. (d) Termination by a Lender. In the event that a Change of Control occurs, each Lender may, by notice to the Company and the Agent given not later than 50 calendar days after such Change of Control, terminate its Commitment, which Commitment shall be terminated effective as of the later of (i) the date that is 60 calendar days after such Change of Control or (ii) the end of the Interest Period for any Advance outstanding at the time of such Change of Control or for any Advance made pursuant to the next sentence of this Section 2.05(d). Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Borrower's right to make a Borrowing under this Agreement shall be suspended for a period of 60 calendar days, except for Advances having an interest period ending not later than 90 calendar days after such Change of Control. A notice of termination pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) shall not have the effect of accelerating any outstanding Advance of such Lender and the Notes of such Lender. SECTION 2.06. Repayment of Advances. (a) Revolving Credit Advances. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances made to it outstanding on such date. (b) Competitive Bid Advances. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that has made a Competitive Bid Advance, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance made to such Borrower and owing to such Lender on the earlier of (i) the maturity date therefor, specified in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(i) and (ii) the Termination Date. SECTION 2.07. Interest on Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance owing by such Borrower to each Lender from the date of such Revolving Credit Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

29 (i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Revolving Credit Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Utilization Fee in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be paid in full. (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Revolving Credit Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time plus (z) the Applicable Utilization Fee in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), each Borrower shall pay interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance owing by such Borrower to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder by such Borrower that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above. SECTION 2.08. Interest Rate Determination. (a) Each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Agent timely information for the purpose of determining each Eurocurrency Rate and each LIBO Rate if the applicable Telerate Page is unavailable. If any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the Agent for the purpose of determining any such interest rate, the Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or (ii), and the rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose of determining the interest rate under Section 2.07(a)(ii).

30 (b) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Majority Lenders notify the Agent that (i) they are unable to obtain matching deposits in the London interbank market at or about 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the making of a Borrowing in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Revolving Credit Advances as part of such Borrowing during its Interest Period or (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith so notify each Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (A) the Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in any Major Currency, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) redenominate such Advances into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances, and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the same currency as such Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify each Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. (c) If any Borrower, in requesting a Revolving Credit Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, shall fail to select the duration of the Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section 1.01, the Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will (to the extent such Eurocurrency Rate Advances remain outstanding on such day) automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, Convert into Base Rate Advances and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in any Major Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be Converted into Base Rate Advances. (d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will (to the extent such Eurocurrency Rate Advance remains outstanding on such day) automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in any Major Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended. (e) If the applicable Telerate Page is unavailable and fewer than two Reference Banks furnish timely information to the Agent for determining the Eurocurrency Rate or LIBO Rate for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances, as the case may be,

31 (i) the Agent shall forthwith notify the relevant Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances, as the case may be, (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Advances, each such Advance will (to the extent such Eurocurrency Rate Advance remains outstanding on such day) automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, be prepaid by the applicable Borrower or be automatically Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in any Major Currency, be prepaid by the applicable Borrower or be automatically redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converted into a Base Rate Advance (or if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and (iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. SECTION 2.09. Prepayments of Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Optional Prepayments. Each Borrower may, upon notice to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to the date of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, and, if such notice is given, such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances comprising part of the same Revolving Credit Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $10,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in a Major Currency (determined on the date notice of prepayment is given) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in a Major Currency (determined on the date notice of prepayment is given) in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). Each notice of prepayment by a Designated Subsidiary shall be given to the Administrative Agent through the Company. (b) Mandatory Prepayments. (i) If, on any date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars (determined on the third Business Day prior to such date) of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies then outstanding exceeds 103% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Company and each other

32 Borrower, if any, shall thereupon promptly prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances owing by such Borrower in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a LIBO Rate Advance or a Local Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). The Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.09(b)(i) to the Borrowers and the Lenders. (ii) If, on any date, the sum of (A) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Major Currencies then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies then outstanding, shall exceed 110% of $500,000,000, the Company and each other Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of any such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or any such LIBO Rate Advances owing by such Borrower, on the last day of the Interest Periods relating to such Advances, in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed $500,000,000, together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid. The Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.09(b)(ii) to the Borrowers and the Lenders. SECTION 2.10. Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.10 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower of such Advances shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to such Borrower and the Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including,

33 without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender's commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Company shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender's commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Company and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall, upon the written request of the Company delivered to such Lender and the Agent, assign, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the Notes to an Eligible Assignee selected by the Company; provided, however, that (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such request and at the time of such assignment; (ii) the assignee shall have paid to the assigning Lender the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the date of such assignment on, the Note or Notes of such Lender; (iii) the Company shall have paid to the assigning Lender any and all facility fees and other fees payable to such Lender and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Lender under any provision of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other additional amounts owing under this Section 2.10, and any indemnification for Taxes under Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment and (iv) if the assignee selected by the Company is not an existing Lender, such assignee or the Company shall have paid the processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that the assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the date of assignment. SECTION 2.11. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or any Major Currency or LIBO Rate Advances in Dollars or in any Foreign Currency or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or in any Major Currency or LIBO Rate Advances in Dollars or in any Foreign Currency hereunder, (a) each such Eurocurrency Rate Advance or such LIBO Rate Advance, as the case may be, will automatically, upon such demand, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance is denominated in

34 Dollars, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.07(a)(i), as the case may be, and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance is denominated in any Foreign Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converted into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.07(a)(i), as the case may be, and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or such LIBO Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. SECTION 2.12. Payments and Computations. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under any Notes, except with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a Foreign Currency, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Agent at the applicable Agent's Account in same day funds. Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under any Notes with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to Advances denominated in a Foreign Currency not later than 12:00 Noon (at the Payment Office for such Foreign Currency) on the day when due in such Foreign Currency to the Agent in same day funds by deposit of such funds to the applicable Agent's Account. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or facility fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.05(b), 2.05(c), 2.10, 2.13 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. (b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate and of facility fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days and all computations in respect of Competitive Bid Advances shall be made by the Agent or the Sub-Agent, as the case may be, as specified in the applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing (or, in each case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies where market practice differs, in accordance with market practice), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or facility fees are payable. Each determination by the

35 Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or facility fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies. SECTION 2.13. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by any Borrower (including the Company in its capacity as a guarantor under Article VII hereof) hereunder or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Agent, net income taxes imposed by the United States and taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If any Borrower (including the Company in its capacity as a guarantor under Article VII hereof) shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Lender or the Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received

36 had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13) imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that a Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amounts in respect of penalties, interest or expenses pursuant to this paragraph that are payable solely as a result of (i) the failure on the part of the pertinent Lender or the Agent to pay over those amounts received from the Borrowers under this clause (c) or (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the pertinent Lender or the Agent. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. Each Lender agrees to provide reasonably prompt notice to the Agent, the Company and any Borrower of any imposition of Taxes or Other Taxes against such Lender; provided that failure to give such notice shall not affect such Lender's rights to indemnification hereunder. Each Lender agrees that it will, promptly upon a request by the Company or a Borrower having made an indemnification payment hereunder, furnish to the Company or such Borrower, as the case may be, such evidence as is reasonably available to such Lender as to the payment of the relevant Taxes or Other Taxes, and that it will, if requested by the Company or such Borrower, cooperate with the Company or such Borrower, as the case may be, in its efforts to obtain a refund or similar relief in respect of such payment. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, each Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes by or on behalf of any Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of any Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Borrower determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code.

37 (e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by any Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Agent and each Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service forms 1001 or 4224, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes. In addition, each Lender further agrees to provide any Borrower with any form or document as any Borrower may request which is required by any taxing authority outside the United States in order to secure an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding tax. If the forms provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, such Lender was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to such Lender on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form 1001 or 4224, that a Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender shall give notice thereof to each Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide each Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.13(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.13(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, each Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes. (g) If any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to the Agent or on behalf of any of them to any taxing authority pursuant to this Section 2.13, such Lender shall, upon the written request of the Company delivered to such Lender and the

38 Agent, assign, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the Notes to an Eligible Assignee selected by the Company; provided, however, that (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such request and at the time of such assignment; (ii) the assignee shall have paid to the assigning Lender the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the date of such assignment on, the Note or Notes of such Lender; (iii) the Company shall have paid to the assigning Lender any and all facility fees and other fees payable to such Lender and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Lender under any provision of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any increased costs or other additional amounts owing under Section 2.10, and any indemnification for Taxes under this Section 2.13) as of the effective date of such assignment; and (iv) if the assignee selected by the Company is not an existing Lender, such assignee or the Company shall have paid the processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment; provided further that the assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the date of assignment. SECTION 2.14. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.05(b), 2.05(c), 2.10, 2.13 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Revolving Credit Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Revolving Credit Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. SECTION 2.15. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, backstop of commercial paper.

39 SECTION 2.16. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Revolving Credit Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Revolving Credit Advances. Each Borrower agrees that upon request of any Lender to such Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) that such Lender receive a Revolving Credit Note to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Revolving Credit Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, such Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender. (b) The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from each Borrower hereunder and each Lender's share thereof. (c) Entries made in good faith by the Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement.

Since December 31, 1998, there has been no Material Adverse Change. (f) There is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding, including, without limitation, any Environmental Action, pending or to the knowledge of the Company Threatened affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that (i) is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Litigation), or (ii) purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Note or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and there has been no adverse change in the status, or financial effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, of the Disclosed Litigation from that described on Schedule 3.01(b) hereto. (g) Following application of the proceeds of each Advance, not more than 25 percent of the value of the assets (either of the Borrower of such Advance or of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis) subject to the provisions of Section 5.02(a) or subject to any restriction contained in any agreement or instrument between such Borrower and any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender relating to Debt and within the scope of Section 6.01(e) will be margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). (h) The Company and each wholly-owned direct Subsidiary of the Company have, in the aggregate, met their minimum funding requirements under ERISA with

47 respect to their Plans in all material respects and have not incurred any material liability to the PBGC, other than for the payment of premiums, in connection with such Plans. (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Plan of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates that has resulted in or is reasonably likely to result in a material liability of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates. (j) The Schedules B (Actuarial Information) to the 1998 annual reports (Form 5500 Series) with respect to each Plan of the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates, copies of which have been filed with the Internal Revenue Service (and which will be furnished to any Bank through the Administrative Agent upon the request of such Bank through the Administrative Agent to the Company), are complete and accurate in all material respects and fairly present in all material respects the funding status of such Plans at such date, and since the date of each such Schedule B there has been no material adverse change in funding status. (k) Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any Withdrawal Liability to any Multiemployer Plan in an annual amount exceeding 6% of Net Tangible Assets of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries. (l) Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has been notified by the sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or has been terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA. No such Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, in a reorganization or termination which might reasonably be expected to result in a liability of the Company in an amount in excess of $5,000,000. (m) The Company is not, and immediately after the application by the Company of the proceeds of each Loan will not be, (a) an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) a "holding company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

48 respects with all such Environmental Permits. To the best of the Company's knowledge no circumstances exist that would be reasonably likely to form the basis of an Environmental Action against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties that could have a Material Adverse Effect. (o) The Company has (i) initiated a review and assessment of all areas within its and each of its Subsidiaries' business and operations (including those affected by suppliers, vendors and customers) that could be adversely affected by the risk that computer applications used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or suppliers, vendors and customers) may be unable to recognize and perform properly date sensitive functions involving certain dates prior to and any date after December 31, 1999 (the "Year 2000 Problem"), (ii) developed a plan and timetable for addressing the Year 2000 Problem on a timely basis and (iii) to date, implemented that plan in accordance with such timetable. Based on the foregoing, the Company believes that all computer applications (including those of its suppliers, vendors and customers) that are material to its or any of its Subsidiaries' business and operations are reasonably expected on a timely basis to be able to perform properly date-sensitive functions for all dates before, on and after January 1, 2000, except to the extent that a failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. SECTION 9.04. Costs and Expenses. (a) The Company agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, (i) all due diligence, syndication (including printing, distribution and bank meetings), transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, consultant, and audit expenses and (ii) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent with respect thereto. The Company further agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Agent and the Lenders, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent and each Lender in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 9.04(a). (b) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and each Lender and each of their Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities

65 and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of, or in connection with the preparation for a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Company, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, except to the extent any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense has resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnified Party on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances. (c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.03(d), 2.05(b), 2.09(a) or (b) or 2.11, acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. (d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes and the termination in whole of any Commitment hereunder. SECTION 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note of such Borrower held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such

66 Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the relevant Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have. SECTION 9.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective (other than Sections 2.01 and 2.03, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01) when it shall have been executed by the Company and the Agent and when the Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Borrower, the Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders. SECTION 9.07. Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may at any time, with notice to the Company prior to making any proposal to any potential assignee and with the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (and shall at any time, if requested to do so by the Company pursuant to Section 2.05(b), 2.10 or 2.13) assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it and the Revolving Credit Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) the Company's consent shall not be required (A) in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender, provided that notice thereof shall have been given to the Company and the Agent, or (B) in the case of an assignment of the type described in subsection (g) below; (ii) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any right to make Competitive Bid Advances, Competitive Bid Advances owing to it and Competitive Bid Notes); (iii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; (iv) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (v) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Company pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) shall be arranged by the Company after consultation with, and subject to the approval of, the Agent, and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (vi) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrower or one or

67 more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement and all of the obligations of the Borrower to such Lender shall have been satisfied; and (vii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and, if the assigning Lender is not retaining a Commitment hereunder, any Revolving Credit Note subject to such assignment. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, provided, however, that such assigning Lender's rights under Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such assignment as to matters occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). (b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower or the performance or observance by such Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of

68 the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (c) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Revolving Credit Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Company and to each other Borrower. (d) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Company, each other Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, any other Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Company and the other Borrowers hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Company, any other Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation and (vi) within 30 days of the effective date of such participation, such Lender shall provide notice of such participation to the Company. (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or

69 participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Company or any Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of such Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to such Borrower received by it from such Lender. (g) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time assign or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. SECTION 9.08. Designated Subsidiaries. (a) Designation. The Company may at any time, and from time to time, by delivery to the Agent of a Designation Letter duly executed by the Company and the respective Subsidiary and substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, designate such Subsidiary as a "Designated Subsidiary" for purposes of this Agreement and such Subsidiary shall thereupon become a "Designated Subsidiary" for purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by the Company and the identity of the respective Subsidiary. (b) Termination. Upon the payment and performance in full of all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes of any Designated Subsidiary then, so long as at the time no Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing or Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing in respect of such Designated Subsidiary is outstanding, such Subsidiary's status as a "Designated Subsidiary" shall terminate upon notice to such effect from the Agent to the Lenders (which notice the Agent shall give promptly upon its receipt of a request therefor from the Company). Thereafter, the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Advance hereunder to such Designated Subsidiary. SECTION 9.09. Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders and the Agent hereby agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (e.g., procedures substantially comparable to those applied by such Lender or the Agent in respect of non-public information as to the business of such Lender or the Agent) to keep confidential any financial reports and other information from time to time supplied to it by the Company hereunder to the extent that such information is not and does not become publicly available and which the Company indicates at the time is to be treated confidentially, provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect the disclosure of any such information (i) by the Agent to any Lender, (ii) to the extent required by law (including statute, rule, regulation or judicial process), (iii) to counsel for any Lender or the Agent or to their respective independent public accountants, (iv) to bank examiners and auditors and appropriate government examining authorities, (v) to the Agent or any other Lender, (vi) in connection with any litigation to which any Lender or the Agent is a party, (vii) to actual or prospective assignees

70 and participants as contemplated by Section 9.07(f) or (viii) to any Affiliate of the Agent or any Lender or to such Affiliate's officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such Affiliate or such Affiliate's officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors, as the case may be, shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Company received by it; a determination by a Lender or the Agent as to the application of the circumstances described in the foregoing clauses (i)-(viii) being conclusive if made in good faith; and each of the Lenders and the Agent agrees that it will follow procedures which are intended to put any transferee of such confidential information on notice that such information is confidential. SECTION 9.10. Mitigation of Yield Protection. Each Lender hereby agrees that, commencing as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a), 2.11 or 2.13 with respect to such Lender, such Lender will give notice thereof through the Agent to the respective Borrower. A Borrower may at any time, by notice through the Agent to any Lender, request that such Lender change its Applicable Lending Office as to any Advance or Type of Advance or that it specify a new Applicable Lending Office with respect to its Commitment and any Advance held by it or that it rebook any such Advance with a view to avoiding or mitigating the consequences of an occurrence such as described in the preceding sentence, and such Lender will use reasonable efforts to comply with such request unless, in the opinion of such Lender, such change or specification or rebooking is inadvisable or might have an adverse effect, economic or otherwise, upon it, including its reputation. In addition, each Lender agrees that, except for changes or specifications or rebookings required by law or effected pursuant to the preceding sentence, if the result of any change or change of specification of Applicable Lending Office or rebooking would, but for this sentence, be to impose additional costs or requirements upon the respective Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(a), Section 2.11 or Section 2.13 (which would not be imposed absent such change or change of specification or rebooking) by reason of legal or regulatory requirements in effect at the time thereof and of which such Lender is aware at such time, then such costs or requirements shall not be imposed upon such Borrower but shall be borne by such Lender. All expenses incurred by any Bank in changing an Applicable Lending Office or specifying another Applicable Lending Office of such Lender or rebooking any Advance in response to a request from a Borrower shall be paid by such Borrower. Nothing in this Section 9.10 (including, without limitation, any failure by a Lender to give any notice contemplated in the first sentence hereof) shall limit, reduce or postpone any obligations of the respective Borrower under Section 2.10(a), Section 2.11 or Section 2.13, including any obligations payable in respect of any period prior to the date of any change or specification of a new Applicable Lending Office or any rebooking of any Advance. SECTION 9.11. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

71 SECTION 9.12. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. SECTION 9.13. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Designated Subsidiary hereby agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in the any such New York State court or in such federal court may be made upon CT Corporation System at its offices at 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019 (the "Process Agent") and each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints the Process Agent its authorized agent to accept such service of process, and agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Each Borrower hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.02. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes in the courts of any jurisdiction. To the extent that each Designated Subsidiary has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement. (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

72 SECTION 9.14. Substitution of Currency. If a change in any Foreign Currency occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definitions of Eurocurrency Rate and LIBO Rate) will be amended to the extent determined by the Agent (acting reasonably and in consultation with the Company) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrowers in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such Foreign Currency had occurred. SECTION 9.15. Final Agreement. This written agreement represents the full and final agreement between the parties with respect to the matters addressed herein and supercedes all prior communications, written or oral, with respect thereto. There are no unwritten agreements between the parties. SECTION 9.16. Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under the Notes in any currency (the "Original Currency") into another currency (the "Other Currency"), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency at 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the first Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. (b) The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes held by such Lender shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Dollars with such Other Currency; if the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the Original Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the Original Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to such Borrower such excess. SECTION 9.17. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Borrower, the Agent and each Lender hereby irrevocably waive all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes or the actions of the Agent or any Lender in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement thereof.

Exhibit 10.15 The U.S. $1 Billion Credit Agreement dated as of January 13, 2000 among Honeywell International Inc., the initial lenders named therein, Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as syndication agent, and Salomon Smith Barney Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., as arrangers, has substantially the same terms as the 364-Day Credit Agreement dated as of December 2, 1999 filed as Exhibit 10.11 hereto. Capitalized terms in this exhibit have the meanings set forth in the December 2 Credit Agreement. The following are the important differences between the January 13 Credit Agreement and the December 2 Credit Agreement set forth in Exhibit 10.11: 1. The January 13 Credit Agreement expires April 12, 2000 (90 days from the Effective Date). 2. The January 13 Credit Agreement does not provide for extension of the Termination Date. 3. The Commitment under the January 13 Credit Agreement is fixed at an aggregate of $1 billion, with Citibank, N.A., and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York each committed to lend $500 million each.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AEROSPACE SOLUTIONS SALES OVERVIEW Sales in 1999 were $9,908 million or basically flat compared with 1998. Sales of avionics products were higher due principally to continued strong demand for flight safety products such as collision avoidance and enhanced ground proximity warning systems. Sales to the aftermarket, particularly repair and overhaul and the military, were also higher. The acquisition of a controlling interest in the Normalair-Garrett Ltd. (NGL) environmental controls joint venture in the prior year also increased sales in 1999. This increase was offset by lower sales to commercial air transport and military original equipment manufacturers, and the effects of divestitures and a restructuring of a government technical services contract. Sales in 1998 were $9,890 million, an increase of $1,492 million, or 18 percent compared with 1997. This increase was driven by strong sales of avionics products and increased deliveries to air transport manufacturers. Sales of aftermarket products and services also increased. The acquisitions of the Grimes Aerospace (Grimes) lighting systems business, Banner Aerospace (Banner) FAA-certified hardware parts business and NGL also contributed to the sales increase. SEGMENT PROFIT OVERVIEW Segment profit in 1999 was $1,918 million, an increase of $331 million, or 21 percent compared with 1998. The increase principally resulted from improved sales of higher-margin aftermarket and avionics products and cost structure improvements primarily from census and benefit cost reductions. Segment profit in 1998 was $1,587 million, an increase of $436 million, or 38 percent compared with 1997. The increase was driven by higher sales and the improved mix of higher-margin aftermarket and avionics products and services. Productivity improvements and divestitures also contributed to the increase. The acquisitions of the Grimes, Banner and NGL businesses also improved segment profit.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AUTOMATION & ASSET MANAGEMENT SALES OVERVIEW Sales in 1999 were $6,115 million, an increase of $158 million, or 3 percent compared with 1998. Sales were higher for the Home and Building Control business driven by growth in control and consumer products and building services and security. Acquisitions also contributed to the sales increase. Lower sales from the energy retrofit and installed systems businesses were a partial offset. Sales for the Industrial Control business were basically flat compared with the prior year. Higher sales due to acquisitions and growth in the sensing and control business were offset by the effects of continued weakness in the pulp and paper and refining markets. Sales for the segment were also negatively impacted by foreign currency fluctuations due to the strong dollar. Sales in 1998 were $5,957 million or basically flat compared with 1997. Sales were slightly higher for the Home and Building Control business, driven by continued solid growth in the services business. This growth was moderated by a planned reduction in the lower-margin energy retrofit and installed systems businesses and unusually warm winters in North America and Europe. Sales for the Industrial Control business were down slightly; however, after adjusting for divestitures and negative foreign currency fluctuations due to the strong dollar, sales increased slightly despite weakness in the pulp and paper, refining and industrial components markets. SEGMENT PROFIT OVERVIEW Segment profit in 1999 was $767 million, an increase of $62 million, or 9 percent compared with 1998. Segment profit for the Home and Building Control business was up significantly due to improvement in the control products business and the exiting of the lower-margin energy retrofit and installed systems businesses. Cost savings from census reductions also contributed to the improvement. This increase was offset somewhat by lower segment profit for the Industrial Control business as growth in the higher-margin sensing and control business and cost structure improvements were more than offset by the effects of continued weakness in the pulp and paper and refining markets. Segment profit in 1998 was $705 million, an increase of $95 million, or 16 percent compared with 1997. Segment profit for the Industrial Control business increased significantly, driven by improvement in the Measurex business, the contribution of higher-margin services and software growth and ongoing productivity improvements. Segment profit for the Home and Building Control business also improved due to improvement in the solutions and services business resulting from productivity gains and a strategic repositioning. Solid profit growth in the products business, despite challenges posed by the weather, particularly in the residential products area, also contributed to the increase.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS PERFORMANCE MATERIALS SALES OVERVIEW Sales in 1999 were $4,007 million, a decrease of $162 million, or 4 percent compared with 1998 due principally to divestitures including the environmental catalyst, Laminate Systems and phenol businesses. Lower sales for carpet fibers also contributed to the decrease. Higher sales for specialty films, engineering plastics and waxes were a partial offset. Higher sales from the acquisitions of Johnson Matthey Electronics, a supplier of wafer fabrication materials and interconnect products to the electronics and telecommunications industries, and Pharmaceutical Fine Chemicals (PFC), a supplier of active and intermediate pharmaceutical chemicals, were also a partial offset. Sales in 1998 were $4,169 million, a decrease of $79 million, or 2 percent compared with 1997. The divestitures of the phenol, environmental catalyst and European laminates businesses and the exiting of the European carpet fibers and a portion of the North American textile businesses drove the decline in sales. Lower sales for the Electronic Materials business, reflecting softness in the semiconductor and electronic markets, also contributed to the sales decrease. Higher sales for specialty films and engineering plastics were a partial offset. Increased sales due to the acquisitions of the Astor Holdings wax business and PFC were also a partial offset. SEGMENT PROFIT OVERVIEW Segment profit in 1999 was $439 million, a decrease of $195 million, or 31 percent compared with 1998. The decrease principally reflects the effects of the continuing pricing pressures in the Performance Polymers and Electronic Materials businesses and higher raw material costs in certain Performance Polymers businesses. The impact of prior year divestitures also contributed to the decrease. The effect of improved sales volume for specialty films, engineering plastics and waxes was a partial offset. Segment profit in 1998 was $634 million, an increase of $93 million, or 17 percent compared with 1997. The increase was driven by a more favorable price-cost relationship in the Performance Polymers nylon and polyester businesses and the divestitures of the phenol and environmental catalyst businesses. Lower raw material costs, acquisitions and cost structure improvements from census reductions in the Specialty Chemicals businesses also contributed to the increase. The negative effects of pricing pressures in certain Specialty Chemicals businesses and lower sales for the Electronic Materials business were partial offsets.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS POWER & TRANSPORTATION PRODUCTS SALES OVERVIEW Sales in 1999 were $3,581 million, an increase of $194 million, or 6 percent compared with 1998. Sales for the Transportation and Power Systems business were significantly higher driven by strong growth for the Turbocharging Systems business due primarily to continued strong sales in Europe reflecting the turbodiesel's increased penetration of the passenger car market. Sales for the Commercial Vehicle Systems business also increased due principally to increased North American truck builds. Sales for the Consumer Products Group business also increased, led by higher sales of Prestone'r' products and FRAM'r' filters. Lower sales for the Friction Materials business due to pricing pressures and weakness in the European market were a partial offset. Sales were also negatively impacted by foreign currency fluctuations due to the strong dollar. Sales in 1998 were $3,387 million, a decrease of $382 million, or 10 percent compared with 1997, reflecting the disposition of the automotive Safety Restraints business. Excluding the divested Safety Restraints business, sales increased 11 percent. Sales for the Transportation and Power Systems business were strong led by higher sales for the Turbocharging Systems business which benefited from increased penetration of the turbocharged diesel passenger car market in Europe and the light truck market in North America. Sales for the Commercial Vehicle Systems business also improved significantly, driven by an improvement in truck builds and increased market penetration for anti-lock brake systems. The increase also reflects higher sales for the Consumer Products Group business due to the 1997 acquisitions of the Prestone'r' Products and Holt Lloyd car care products businesses. Sales for the Friction Materials business were moderately lower. SEGMENT PROFIT OVERVIEW Segment profit in 1999 was $322 million, an increase of $88 million, or 38 percent compared with 1998. The increase reflects higher sales for the Transportation and Power Systems and Consumer Products Group businesses. Cost structure improvements in these businesses resulting from Six Sigma initiatives, materials procurement savings and census reductions also contributed to the increase. Segment profit in 1998 was $234 million, a decrease of $74 million, or 24 percent compared with 1997. The decrease reflects the absence of segment profit from the divested Safety Restraints business. Segment profit from the Consumer Products Group business decreased substantially, due in part to the initial costs of new distribution facilities, higher advertising expense to increase brand awareness and other expenses to improve future operations. The Friction Materials business segment profit was also lower due primarily to decreased sales. Segment profit from the Transportation and Power Systems businesses was higher due principally to strong sales growth.

Net sales in 1999 were $23,735 million, an increase of $180 million, or 1 percent compared with 1998. Excluding the effect of divestitures and a change from prime contractor to sub-contractor status on a government technical services contract, sales increased approximately 4 percent. This increase resulted principally from acquisitions. Fluctuations in foreign currency rates decreased sales approximately 1 percent. Net sales in 1998 were $23,555 million, an increase of $1,056 million, or 5 percent, compared with 1997. Acquisitions and higher sales volume increased sales approximately 6 percent each. The increase in sales volume includes a partial offset for lower selling prices. The effects of divestitures and fluctuations in foreign currency rates lowered sales by 6 percent and 1 percent, respectively. Total segment profit in 1999 was $3,271 million, an increase of $359 million, or 12 percent compared with 1998. Segment profit margin for 1999 was 13.8 percent compared with 12.4 percent in 1998. The increase in segment profit in 1999 was led by a substantial improvement by the Aerospace Solutions segment with the Power & Transportation Products and Automation & Asset Management segments also contributing solid gains. Lower Corporate expenses also contributed to the increase. A substantial decrease in segment profit for the Performance Materials segment was a partial offset. Total segment profit in 1998 was $2,912 million, an increase of $469 million, or 19 percent compared with 1997. Segment profit margin for 1998 was 12.4 percent compared with 10.9 percent in 1997. The increase in segment profit in 1998 was led by a substantial improvement by the Aerospace Solutions segment with the Automation & Asset Management and Performance Materials segments also showing solid gains. A substantial decrease in segment profit for the Power & Transportation Products segment and higher Corporate expenses were partial offsets. A discussion of net sales and segment profit by reportable segment can be found in the Segment section of Management's Discussion and Analysis appearing on pages 20, 24, 26 and 28 of this Annual Report. Gain on sale of non-strategic businesses of $106 million in 1999 reflects the pretax gain on the sale of our Laminate Systems business. The gain on sale of non-strategic businesses of $303 million in 1997 was comprised of $354 million representing the total gain on the sales of our automotive Safety Restraints business and certain Industrial Control businesses. This was partially offset by a charge of $51 million related to the settlement of the 1996 sale of our automotive Braking Systems business. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements for further information. Equity in income of affiliated companies of $76 million in 1999 decreased by $86 million, or 53 percent compared with 1998. The decrease reflects a charge of $40 million relating to the writedown of an equity investment and an equity investee's severance actions as well as lower earnings from our UOP process technology (UOP) joint venture. Equity in income of affiliated companies of $162 million in 1998 decreased by $29 million, or 15 percent, compared with 1997. The decrease resulted mainly from lower earnings from UOP, partially offset by a gain on the sale of a portion of our interest in our European Commercial Vehicle Systems joint venture. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [BAR GRAPH] [BAR GRAPH] SEGMENT PROFIT SEGMENT MARGIN (Dollars in Millions) (Percent) 1997 1998 1999 1997 1998 1999 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- $2,443 $2,912 $3,271 10.9% 12.4% 13.8% Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 31

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Other (income) expense, $307 million of income in 1999, increased by $280 million compared with 1998. The increase principally reflects the net gain of $268 million on our disposition of our investment in AMP Incorporated (AMP) common stock. Other (income) expense, $27 million of income in 1998, decreased by $60 million compared with 1997, principally reflecting lower investment income and reduced benefits from foreign exchange hedging. A gain on litigation settlements was a partial offset. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements for further information. Interest and other financial charges of $265 million in 1999 decreased by $10 million, or 4 percent, compared with 1998. The decrease results from lower interest rates and tax interest expense somewhat offset by the effects of higher average debt outstanding during 1999. Interest and other financial charges of $275 million in 1998 were basically flat compared with 1997. The effective tax rate was 31.5 percent, 31.3 percent and 32.2 percent in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. See Note 8 of Notes to Financial Statements for further information. Net income in 1999 of $1,541 million, or $1.90 per share, was 19 percent lower than 1998 net income of $1,903 million, or $2.34 per share. Net income in 1999 included the gains on our dispositions of our Laminate Systems business and our investment in AMP and merger, repositioning and other charges. Net income in 1998 included repositioning charges, litigation settlements and a tax settlement. Adjusted for these items, net income in 1999 was $624 million, or $0.78 per share, higher than reported. This represents an increase of 14 percent over 1998 if both years are adjusted for these items. The higher net income in 1999 was the result of substantially improved earnings for the Aerospace Solutions, Automation & Asset Management and Power & Transportation Products segments. The Performance Materials segment had lower earnings. Net income in 1998 of $1,903 million, or $2.34 per share, was 16 percent higher than 1997 net income of $1,641 million, or $2.00 per share. Net income in 1997 included the gains on our dispositions of our automotive Safety Restraints and certain Industrial Control businesses and repositioning and other charges. Adjusted for repositioning charges, litigation settlements and a tax settlement, net income in 1998 was $4 million more than reported and earnings per share were the same. This represents an increase of 16 percent over 1997 if both years are adjusted for repositioning and other charges and the specified settlements and gains. The higher net income in 1998 was the result of substantially improved earnings for the Aerospace Solutions and Automation & Asset Management segments. Earnings for the Performance Materials segment were also slightly higher. The Power & Transportation Products segment had lower earnings. FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Total assets at December 31, 1999 were $23,527 million, an increase of $789 million, or 3 percent from December 31, 1998. Total assets at December 31, 1998 were $22,738 million, an increase of $2,620 million, or 13 percent from December 31, 1997. The increase from year-end 1997 to year-end 1998 primarily reflects acquisitions and our investment in AMP. Cash provided by operating activities of $2,374 million during 1999 increased by $400 million compared with 1998 due principally to net income excluding the impact of the gains on our dispositions of our Laminate Systems business and our investment in AMP and merger, repositioning and other charges. Cash provided by operating activities of $1,974 million during 1998 increased by $40 million compared with 1997. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [BAR GRAPH] [BAR GRAPH] [BAR GRAPH] EARNINGS PER SHARE RESEARCH AND FREE CASH FLOW (Dollars Per Share) DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE (Dollars in Billions) (Dollars in Millions) 1997 1998 1999 1997 1998 1999 1997 1998 1999 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- $2.00 $2.34 $2.68 $796 $876 $909 $1.1 $1.4 $1.7 32 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

Cash used for investing activities of $291 million during 1999 decreased by $1,302 million compared with 1998. The decrease relates principally to the proceeds from the disposition of our investment in AMP. An increase in proceeds from sales of businesses, primarily Laminate Systems, also contributed to the decrease. Higher spending for acquisitions, mainly Johnson Matthey Electronics, and the liquidation in the prior year of short-term investments were partial offsets. Cash used for investing activities of $1,593 million during 1998 decreased by $403 million compared with 1997 due primarily to lower spending for acquisitions and the liquidation of short-term investments. This was partially offset by lower proceeds from the sales of businesses and our investment in AMP. On February 3, 2000, we completed a tender offer acquiring substantially all of the outstanding shares of Pittway Corporation (Pittway) Common Stock and Class A Stock for approximately $2.2 billion, including the assumption of the net debt of Pittway of approximately $167 million. The acquisition was funded through the issuance of commercial paper. Pittway designs, manufactures and distributes security and fire systems for homes and buildings and had 1998 sales of $1.3 billion. We continuously assess the relative strength of each business in our portfolio as to strategic fit, market position and profit contribution in order to upgrade our combined portfolio and identify operating units that will most benefit from increased investment. We identify acquisition candidates that will further our strategic plan and strengthen our existing core businesses. We also identify operating units that do not fit into our long-term strategic plan based on their market position, relative profitability or growth potential. These operating units are considered for potential divestiture, restructuring or other repositioning action subject to regulatory constraints. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [BAR GRAPH] [BAR GRAPH] DEBT AS A PERCENT CAPITAL EXPENDITURES OF TOTAL CAPITAL (Dollars in Millions) (Percent) 1997 1998 1999 1997 1998 1999 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- 30.2% 32.5% 26.6% $1,015 $1,037 $986 Capital expenditures were $986, $1,037 and $1,015 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Spending by the reportable segments and Corporate since 1997 is shown in Note 23 of Notes to Financial Statements. Our total capital expenditures in 2000 are currently projected at approximately $1,050 million. These expenditures are expected to be financed principally by internally generated funds and are primarily planned for expansion and cost reduction. Cash used for financing activities of $1,110 million during 1999 increased by $1,002 million compared with 1998. The increase relates principally to lower net issuances of debt of $1,190 million. Cash dividends paid in 1999 were also $46 million higher. Lower net stock repurchases of $234 million were a partial offset. Total debt of $5,066 million at year-end 1999 was $100 million, or 2 percent higher than at December 31, 1998. Cash used for financing activities of $108 million during 1998 decreased by $677 million compared with 1997. The decrease relates to higher net issuances of debt of $809 million somewhat offset by an increase in net stock repurchases of $128 million and higher cash dividends paid of $47 million. Total debt of $4,966 million at year-end 1998 was $1,334 million, or 37 percent higher than at December 31, 1997. The increase in total debt resulted principally from our investment in AMP, acquisitions and common stock repurchases. In September 1999, a $1 billion shelf registration filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the issuance of debt securities was declared effective. In December 1999, we entered into a $3 billion bank revolving credit facility which is comprised of (a) a $1 billion Five-Year Credit Agreement; and, (b) a $2 billion 364-Day Credit Agreement, which reduces to $1 billion on March 31, 2000 bringing the total bank revolving credit facility to $2 billion. The credit agreements which replaced previous credit agreements maintained by AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell were established for general corporate purposes including support for the issuance of commercial paper. There was $2,023 and $1,773 million of commercial paper outstanding at year-end 1999 and 1998, respectively. See Note 15 of Notes to Financial Statements for details of long-term debt and a discussion of the Credit Agreements. In January 2000, we entered into an additional $1 billion bank revolving credit facility to be used to support the issuance of commercial paper to finance in part the acquisition of Pittway. This bank revolving credit facility expires on April 12, 2000 and has terms and conditions similar to the $2 billion 364-Day Credit Agreement. Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 33

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS We believe that our available cash, committed credit lines, and access to the public debt markets using debt securities and commercial paper, provide adequate short-term and long-term liquidity. From 1997 to 1999, we purchased $3.1 billion of treasury shares in connection with our stock repurchase programs. As of June 4, 1999, the date of the merger agreement between AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell, all share repurchase programs were rescinded. The Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend increase of 10.3 percent from $0.17 to $0.1875 per share. The dividend increase will be effective with the first quarter of 2000. MERGER AND REPOSITIONING CHARGES Upon completion of the merger between AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell, we recognized a pretax charge of $642 million for the cost of actions designed to improve our combined competitiveness and productivity and improve future profitability. The merger-related actions included the elimination of redundant corporate offices and functional administrative overhead; elimination of redundant and excess facilities and workforce in our combined aerospace businesses; adoption of six sigma productivity initiatives at the former Honeywell businesses; and the transition to a global shared services model. The components of the charge included severance costs of $342 million, asset impairments of $108 million, other exit costs of $57 million and merger-related transaction and period expenses of $135 million. Planned global workforce reductions consisted of approximately 6,500 administrative and manufacturing positions. Asset impairments principally related to the elimination of redundant or excess corporate and aerospace facilities and equipment. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [BAR GRAPH] [BAR GRAPH] DIVIDENDS PER SHARE MARKET VALUE OF (Dollars Per Share) COMMON STOCK (Dollars Per Share) 1997 1998 1999 1997 1998 1999 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- $0.52 $0.60 $0.68 $38.81 $44.31 $57.69 At year-end, approximately $9 million of redundant assets were not able to be removed from service and are currently being depreciated over their shortened useful lives. Other exit costs related to lease terminations and contract cancellation losses negotiated or subject to reasonable estimation at year-end. Merger-related transaction and period expenses consisted of investment banking and legal fees, former Honeywell deferred compensation vested upon change in control and other direct merger-related expenses incurred in the period the merger was completed. All merger-related actions are expected to be completed by December 31, 2000. In 1999, we also recognized a pretax charge of $321 million for the costs of actions designed to reposition principally the AlliedSignal business units for improved productivity and future profitability. These repositioning actions included the organizational realignment of our aerospace businesses to strengthen market focus and simplify business structure; elimination of an unprofitable product line and rationalization of manufacturing capacity and infrastructure in the Performance Polymers business; a reduction in infrastructure in the Turbocharging Systems business; closing a wax refinery and carbon materials plant and rationalization of manufacturing capacity in the Specialty Chemicals business; elimination of two manufacturing facilities in our Electronic Materials business; a plant closure and outsourcing activity in our automotive Consumer Products Group business; and related and general workforce reductions in all AlliedSignal businesses and our Industrial Control business. The components of the charge included severance costs of $140 million, asset impairments of $149 million, and other exit costs of $32 million. Global workforce reductions consisted of approximately 5,100 manufacturing, administrative, and sales positions. Asset impairments principally related to manufacturing plant and equipment held for sale and capable of being taken out of service and actively marketed in the period of impairment. Other exit costs principally consisted of environmental exit costs associated with chemical plant shutdowns. All repositioning actions, excluding environmental remediation, are expected to be completed by December 31, 2000. We expect that the merger and repositioning actions committed to in 1999 will generate incremental pretax savings of $250 million in 2000, $575 million in 2001 and $750 million in 2002 principally from planned workforce reductions and facility consolidations. Cash expenditures for severance, other exit costs, and future period expenses necessary to execute these 34 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

actions will exceed $500 million and will principally be incurred in 2000. Such expenditures will be funded through future operating cash flows, proceeds from government required divestitures resulting from the merger and sale of merger-related, excess or duplicate facilities and equipment. The government required divestitures will not materially affect our results of operations or financial position. In 1998, we recognized a pretax charge of $54 million related to productivity initiatives which included workforce reductions of 1,200 employees and facility consolidations principally in our Home and Building Control and Industrial Control businesses. These actions were completed by December 31, 1999, with substantially all reserve spending occurring in 1999. In 1997, we recognized a pretax charge of $215 million for costs to eliminate AlliedSignal's three sector administrative offices; consolidate our automotive Consumer Products Group business; close four performance materials manufacturing facilities; and, execute workforce reductions and facility consolidations in our Home and Building Control and Industrial Control businesses. The charge principally consisted of severance for approximately 2,900 employees and other cash exit costs. These actions were essentially completed by December 31, 1998, with substantially all reserve spending occurring in 1998. The 1998 and 1997 actions generated over $150 million in incremental pretax savings in 1999 and were funded through proceeds received from the sales of non-strategic businesses. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS We are subject to various federal, state and local government requirements relating to the protection of the environment. We believe that, as a general matter, our policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and that our handling, manufacture, use and disposal of hazardous or toxic substances are in accord with environmental laws and regulations. However, mainly because of past operations and operations of predecessor companies, we, like other companies engaged in similar businesses, are a party to lawsuits and claims and have incurred remedial response and voluntary cleanup costs associated with environmental matters. Additional lawsuits, claims and costs involving environmental matters are likely to continue to arise in the future. We continually conduct studies, individually at our owned sites, and jointly as a member of industry groups at non-owned sites, to determine the feasibility of various remedial techniques to address environmental matters. It is our policy to record appropriate liabilities for such matters when environmental assessments are made or remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The timing of these accruals is generally no later than the completion of feasibility studies. Remedial response and voluntary cleanup expenditures were $78, $77 and $90 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and are currently estimated to be approximately $82 million in 2000. We expect that we will be able to fund such expenditures from operating cash flow. The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors, including regulatory approval of cleanup projects, remedial techniques to be utilized and agreements with other parties. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the recorded liability for environmental matters was $349 and $406 million, respectively. In addition, in 1999 and 1998 we incurred operating costs for ongoing businesses of approximately $89 and $75 million, respectively, and capital expenditures of $40 and $52 million, respectively relating to compliance with environmental regulations. Although we do not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of liabilities to be recorded upon future completion of studies or settlements, and neither the timing nor the amount of the ultimate costs associated with environmental matters can be determined, they may be significant to our consolidated results of operations. We do not expect that environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. See Note 21 of Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of our commitments and contingencies, including those related to environmental matters. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS As a result of our global operating and financing activities, we are exposed to market risks from changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial position. We minimize our risks from interest and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations through our normal operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and do not use leveraged derivative financial instruments. A discussion of our accounting policies for derivative financial instruments is included in Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements. Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 35

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates relates primarily to our debt obligations. As described in Notes 15 and 17 of Notes to Financial Statements, we issue both fixed and variable rate debt and use interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and reduce borrowing costs. Our exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from international financing activities between subsidiaries and foreign currency denominated receivables, payables, and firm commitments arising from international transactions. We attempt to have all such transaction exposures hedged with internal natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through foreign currency forward and option agreements with third parties. We also use derivative financial instruments to hedge the impact of exchange rate movements on the translated U.S. dollar value of the net income for a number of foreign subsidiaries. Foreign currency forward and option agreements used to hedge net income are marked to market, with gains or losses recognized immediately in income. Our principal foreign currency exposures relate to the Belgian franc, the French franc, the German mark (collectively the Euro countries), and the British pound, the Canadian dollar, and the U.S. dollar. At December 31, 1999, we held or had written foreign currency forward and option agreements, maturing through 2003. We write foreign currency options only in combination with purchased options as an integral transaction and economic alternative to using forward agreements. Derivative financial instruments expose us to counterparty credit risk for nonperformance and to market risk related to changes in interest or currency exchange rates. We manage exposure to counterparty credit risk through specific minimum credit standards, diversification of counterparties, and procedures to monitor concentrations of credit risk. Our counterparties are substantial investment and commercial banks with significant experience using such derivative instruments. We monitor the impact of market risk on the fair value and cash flows of our derivative and other financial instruments considering reasonably possible changes in interest and currency exchange rates and restrict the use of derivative financial instruments to hedging activities. The following table illustrates the potential change in fair value for interest rate sensitive instruments based on a hypothetical immediate one-percentage-point increase in interest rates across all maturities and the potential change in fair value for foreign exchange rate sensitive instruments based on a 10 percent increase in U.S. dollar per local currency exchange rates across all maturities at December 31, 1999 and 1998. Estimated Face or Increase Notional Carrying Fair (Decrease) (Dollars in Millions) Amount Value(1) Value(1) In Fair Value - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ December 31, 1999 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS Long-term debt (including current maturities)(2) $(2,712) $(2,705) $(2,702) $(120) Interest rate swaps 1,100 (4) (36) (22) FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS Foreign currency exchange contracts(3) 1,445 4 6 25 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ December 31, 1998 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS Long-term debt (including current maturities)(2) $(3,041) $(3,018) $(3,278) $(162) Interest rate swaps 1,450 3 6 (23) FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS Foreign currency exchange contracts(3) 2,087 1 (4) 74 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (1) Asset or (liability). (2) Excludes capitalized leases. (3) Increases in the fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts are substantially offset by changes in the fair value of net underlying hedged foreign currency transactions. The above discussion of our procedures to monitor market risk and the estimated changes in fair value resulting from our sensitivity analyses are forward-looking statements of market risk assuming certain adverse market conditions occur. Actual results in the future may differ materially from these estimated results due to actual developments in the global financial markets. The methods used by us to assess and mitigate risk discussed above should not be considered projections of future events. 36 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

OTHER MATTERS LITIGATION On March 13, 1990, Litton Systems, Inc. filed a legal action against the former Honeywell in U.S. District Court, Central District of California, Los Angeles, with claims that were subsequently split into two separate cases. One alleges patent infringement under federal law for using an ion-beam process to coat mirrors incorporated in the former Honeywell's ring laser gyroscopes, and tortious interference under state law for interfering with Litton's prospective advantage with customers and contractual relationships with an inventor and his company, Ojai Research, Inc. The other case alleges monopolization and attempted monopolization under federal antitrust laws by the former Honeywell in the sale of inertial reference systems containing ring laser gyroscopes into the commercial aircraft market. The former Honeywell generally denied Litton's allegations in both cases. In the patent/tort case, the former Honeywell also contested the validity as well as the infringement of the patent, alleging, among other things, that the patent had been obtained by Litton's inequitable conduct before the United States Patent and Trademark Office. In 1993 and 1995,trials were held in each case and juries initially awarded Litton significant monetary damages. However, those verdicts were set aside by the trial court judge who ordered, at a minimum, new trials on the issue of damages in each case. Following cross-appeals by the parties of various issues to the Federal Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court in the patent/tort case, it was remanded to the trial court for further legal and perhaps factual review with respect to both liability and damages. On September 23, 1999, the trial court issued dispositive rulings in the case, granting the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law and Summary Judgment on the Patent claims on various grounds; granting the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law on the State Law Claims on the grounds of insufficient evidence; and denying Litton's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. We expect that Litton will appeal the trial court's rulings. A retrial of damages in the antitrust case commenced October 29, 1998, and on December 9, 1998, a jury returned a verdict against Honeywell for actual damages in the amount of $250 million. Following post trial motions, on September 24, 1999, the trial court issued rulings denying the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law and Motion for New Trial and Remittitur as they related to Litton Systems, Inc., but granting the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law as it relates to Litton Systems, Canada, Limited. The net effect of these rulings was to reduce the existing judgment against the former Honeywell of $750 million to $660 million, plus attorney fees and costs of approximately $35 million. We believe that there is no factual or legal basis for the magnitude of the jury's award and believe that it should be overturned. We also believe we have very strong arguments that the liability portion of the jury verdict in the first antitrust trial was erroneous. Both parties have appealed this judgment, as to both liability and damages, to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Although it is not possible at this time to predict the result of any further appeals in this case, potential does remain for an adverse outcome which could be material to our financial position or results of operations. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the outcome of this matter, no provision has been made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability. For a detailed discussion of this litigation, see Note 21 of Notes to the Financial Statements. YEAR 2000 UPDATE In preparation for the transition to the calendar Year 2000, we completed extensive remediation efforts with respect to the various aspects of the Year 2000 problem, including information systems, production and facilities equipment, products, customers and suppliers. While there can be no assurances that future problems will not occur, these efforts resulted in a successful transition into the Year 2000 without any major complications being identified to date related to the Year 2000 problem. Our total cost for Year 2000 compliance was approximately $195 million. This amount does not include our share of costs for Year 2000 issues by partnerships and joint ventures in which we participate but are not the operator. Incremental spending was not material because most Year 2000 compliance costs were met with amounts that were normally budgeted for procurement and maintenance of our information systems and production and facilities equipment. The redirection of spending from procurement of information systems and production and facilities equipment to implementation of Year 2000 compliance plans may in some instances have delayed productivity improvements. Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 37

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS EURO CONVERSION On January 1, 1999, certain member countries of the European Union established fixed conversion rates between their existing currencies and the European Union's common currency (Euro). The transition period for the introduction of the Euro is between January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2002. We have identified and are ensuring that all Euro conversion compliance issues are addressed. Although we cannot predict the impact of the Euro conversion at this time, we do not expect the Euro conversion will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations. SALES TO THE U.S. GOVERNMENT Sales to the U.S. Government, acting through its various departments and agencies and through prime contractors, amounted to $2,383, $2,693 and $2,655 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This included sales to the Department of Defense (DoD), as a prime contractor and subcontractor, of $1,415, $1,658 and $1,618 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Sales to the DoD accounted for 6.0, 7.0 and 7.2 percent of our total sales in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. We are affected by U.S. Government budget constraints for defense and space programs. U.S. defense spending increased slightly in 1999 and is also expected to increase slightly in 2000. BACKLOG Our total backlog at year-end 1999 and 1998 was $8,736 and $9,400 million, respectively. We anticipate that approximately $6,400 million of the 1999 backlog will be filled in 2000. We believe that backlog is not a reliable indicator of our future sales because a substantial portion of the orders constituting this backlog may be canceled at the customer's option. INFLATION Highly competitive market conditions have minimized inflation's impact on the selling prices of our products and the cost of our purchased materials. Cost increases for materials and labor have generally been low, and productivity enhancement programs, including Six Sigma initiatives, have largely offset any impact. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"(SFAS No.133). SFAS No. 133 requires derivatives to be recorded on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in values of derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, which defers the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. We are currently completing an analysis of these standards and their impact on our results of operations and financial position. 38 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Honeywell International Inc. (Dollars in Millions Except Per Share Amounts) NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. is a diversified technology and manufacturing company,serving customers worldwide with aerospace products and services, control technologies for buildings, homes and industry,automotive products, power generation systems, specialty chemicals,fibers, plastics and electronic and advanced materials. As described in Note 2, Honeywell International Inc. was formed upon the merger of AlliedSignal Inc. and Honeywell Inc. The following is a description of the significant accounting policies of Honeywell International Inc. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Honeywell International Inc. and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out or the average cost method and the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for certain qualifying domestic inventories. INVESTMENTS Investments in affiliates over which we have a significant influence, but not a controlling interest, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Other investments are carried at market value, if readily determinable, or cost. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. For financial reporting, the straight-line method of depreciation is used over the estimated useful lives of 10 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 15 years for machinery and equipment. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition costs over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired and is amortized on a straight-line basis over appropriate periods up to 40 years. Goodwill was $4,282 and $3,951 million, net, at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Accumulated amortization was $804 and $723 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Other intangible assets includes patents, trademarks, customer lists and other items amortized on a straight-line basis over appropriate periods up to 24 years. Other intangible assets were $378 and $414 million, net, at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Accumulated amortization was $398 and $338 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. LONG-LIVED ASSETS We periodically evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets (including property, plant, and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets) whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment is assessed when the undiscounted expected future cash flows derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value and are recognized in operating results. We also continually evaluate the estimated useful lives of all long-lived assets and periodically revise such estimates based on current events. SALES RECOGNITION Product and service sales are recognized when an agreement of sale exists, product delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, pricing is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Sales under long-term contracts in the Aerospace Solutions and Automation & Asset Management segments are recorded on a percentage-of-completion method measured on the cost-to-cost basis for engineering-type contracts and the units-of- delivery basis for production-type contracts. Provisions for anticipated losses on long-term contracts are recorded in full when such losses become evident. ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and that do not provide future benefits, are expensed as incurred. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments are made or remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The timing of these accruals is generally no later than the completion of feasibility studies. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries operating outside the United States with a functional currency other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars using year-end exchange rates. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates effective during the year. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are included as a component of Accumulated Other Nonowner Changes in shareowners' equity. For subsidiaries operating in highly inflationary environments, inventories and property, plant and equipment, including related expenses, are remeasured at the rate of exchange in effect on the date the assets are acquired, while monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at year-end exchange rates. Remeasurement adjustments for these operations are included in net income. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Interest rate swap, foreign currency forward and option agreements are accounted for as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction when designated and effective as a hedge of such items. Agreements qualifying for hedge accounting are accounted for as follows: o Changes in the amount to be received or paid under interest rate swap agreements are recognized in Interest and Other Financial Charges. o Gains and losses on foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge assets, liabilities and net income are recognized in Other (Income) Expense. o Gains and losses on foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge net investments in foreign subsidiaries are recognized in the Cumulative Foreign Exchange Translation Adjustment. o Gains and losses on foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge firm foreign currency commitments, and purchased foreign currency options used to hedge anticipated foreign currency transactions, are recognized in the measurement of the hedged transaction when the transaction occurs. 44 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

Changes in the fair value of agreements not qualifying for hedge accounting are recognized in Other (Income) Expense. Gains and losses on terminated interest rate swap agreements are amortized over the shorter of the remaining term of the agreement or the hedged liability. The carrying value of each agreement is reported in Accounts and Notes Receivable, Other Current Assets, Accounts Payable or Accrued Liabilities, as appropriate. INCOME TAXES Deferred tax liabilities or assets reflect temporary differences between amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. Such amounts are adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is established for any deferred tax asset for which realization is not likely. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development costs for company-sponsored research and development projects are expensed as incurred. Such costs are classified as part of Cost of Goods Sold and were $909, $876 and $796 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and all dilutive potential common shares outstanding. All earnings per share data in this report reflect earnings per share -- assuming dilution, unless otherwise indicated. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and on deposit and highly liquid, temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and related disclosures in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. NOTE 2 ALLIEDSIGNAL-HONEYWELL MERGER On December 1, 1999, AlliedSignal Inc. (AlliedSignal) and Honeywell Inc. (former Honeywell) completed a merger under an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) dated as of June 4, 1999. Under the Merger Agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AlliedSignal merged with and into the former Honeywell. As a result of the merger, the former Honeywell has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of AlliedSignal. At the effective time of the merger AlliedSignal was renamed Honeywell International Inc. (Honeywell). The former Honeywell shareowners were entitled to receive 1.875 shares of Honeywell common stock for each share of the former Honeywell common stock with cash paid in lieu of any fractional shares. As a result, former Honeywell shareowners were entitled to receive approximately 241 million shares of Honeywell common stock valued at approximately $15 billion at the merger date. In addition, outstanding former Honeywell employee stock options were converted at the same exchange factor into options to purchase approximately 10 million shares of Honeywell common stock. The merger qualified as a tax-free reorganization and was accounted for under the pooling-of-interests accounting method. Accordingly, Honeywell's consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to the merger to include the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the former Honeywell as though it had always been a part of Honeywell. There were no material transactions between AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell prior to the merger and there were no material adjustments to conform the accounting policies of the combining companies. The net sales and net income previously reported by the separate companies and the combined amounts presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Income are as follows: NINE MONTHS ENDED Year Ended Year Ended SEPTEMBER 30, December 31, December 31, 1999 1998 1997 (UNAUDITED) - --------------------------------------------------------------- NET SALES AlliedSignal $11,252 $15,128 $14,472 -------------------------------------- Former Honeywell 6,324 8,427 8,027 - --------------------------------------------------------------- Combined $17,576 $23,555 $22,499 =============================================================== Net income AlliedSignal $ 1,121 $ 1,331 $ 1,170 -------------------------------------- Former Honeywell 413 572 471 - --------------------------------------------------------------- Combined $ 1,534 $ 1,903 $ 1,641 =============================================================== As described in Note 4, fees and expenses related to the merger and costs to integrate the combined companies were expensed in the fourth quarter of 1999.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Honeywell International Inc. (Dollars in Millions Except Per Share Amounts) NOTE 3 ACQUISITIONS In addition to the pooling-of-interests transaction discussed in Note 2, we acquired businesses for an aggregate cost of $1,314,$1,191 and $2,180 million in 1999,1998 and 1997,respectively. The following table presents information about the more significant acquisitions: Acquisition Aggregate Annual 1999 Date Cost Goodwill Net Sales - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Johnson Matthey Electronics(1) 8/99 $655 $331 $670 TriStar Aerospace Co.(2) 12/99 300 147 200 1998 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Banner Aerospace(3) 1/98 $350 $175 $250 Pharmaceutical Fine Chemicals(4) 6/98 390 297 110 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Measurex Corporation(5) 3/97 $600 $306 $420 Prestone Products(6) 6/97 400 279 300 Grimes Aerospace Company(7) 7/97 475 416 230 Astor Holdings, Inc.(8) 10/97 370 271 300 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ (1) Johnson Matthey Electronics supplies wafer fabrication materials and interconnect products to the electronics and telecommunications industries. (2) TriStar Aerospace Co. distributes fasteners, fastening systems and related hardware and provides customized inventory management services to original equipment manufacturers of aircraft and aircraft components, commercial airlines and aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul facilities. (3) Banner Aerospace distributes FAA-certified aircraft hardware principally to commercial air transport and general aviation markets. (4) Pharmaceutical Fine Chemicals manufactures and distributes active and intermediate pharmaceutical chemicals. (5) Measurex Corporation designs and supplies measurements, control and industrial automation systems that unify business and control information for the pulp and paper industry. (6) Prestone Products supplies antifreeze/coolant and other car care products. (7) Grimes Aerospace Company manufactures interior and exterior aircraft lighting systems. (8) Astor Holdings, Inc. manufactures value-added, wax-based processing aids, sealants and adhesives. All the acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired businesses were recorded at their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired,of $678, $883 and $1,478 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, was recorded as goodwill and is amortized over estimated useful lives. In connection with these acquisitions the amounts recorded for transaction costs and the costs of integrating the acquired businesses into Honeywell were not material. The results of operations of the acquired businesses have been included in the consolidated results of Honeywell from their respective acquisition dates. The pro forma results for 1999, 1998 and 1997, assuming these acquisitions had been made at the beginning of the year, would not be materially different from reported results. NOTE 4 MERGER, REPOSITIONING AND OTHER CHARGES Upon completion of the merger between AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell, we recognized a pretax charge of $642 million for the cost of actions designed to improve our combined competitiveness and productivity and improve future profitability.The merger-related actions included the elimination of redundant corporate offices and functional administrative overhead; elimination of redundant and excess facilities and workforce in our combined aerospace businesses; adoption of six sigma productivity initiatives at the former Honeywell businesses; and, the transition to a global shared services model. The components of the charge included severance costs of $342 million, asset impairments of $108 million, other exit costs of $57 million and merger-related transaction and period expenses of $135 million. Planned global workforce reductions consisted of approximately 6,500 administrative and manufacturing positions. Asset impairments principally related to the elimination of redundant or excess corporate and aerospace facilities and equipment. At year-end, approximately $9 million of redundant assets were not able to be removed from service and are currently being depreciated over their shortened useful lives. Other exit costs related to lease terminations and contract cancellation losses negotiated or subject to reasonable estimation at year-end. Merger-related transaction and period expenses consisted of investment banking and legal fees,former Honeywell deferred compensation vested upon change in control and other direct merger-related expenses incurred in the period the merger was completed. All merger-related actions are expected to be completed by December 31, 2000. In 1999,we also recognized a pretax charge of $321 million for the cost of actions designed to reposition principally the AlliedSignal business units for improved productivity and future profitability. These repositioning actions included the organizational realignment of our aerospace businesses to strengthen market focus and simplify business structure; elimination of an unprofitable product line and rationalization of manufacturing capacity and infrastructure in the Performance Polymers business; a reduction in infrastructure in the Turbocharging Systems business; closing a wax refinery and carbon materials plant and rationalization of manufacturing capacity in the Specialty Chemicals business; elimination of two manufacturing facilities in our Electronic Materials business; a plant closure and outsourcing activity in our automotive Consumer Products Group business; and related and general workforce reductions in all AlliedSignal businesses and our Industrial Control business. The components of the charge included severance costs of $140 million, asset impairments of $149 million, and other exit costs of $32 million. Global workforce reductions consisted of approximately 5,100 manufacturing, administrative, and sales positions. Asset impairments principally related to manufacturing plant and equipment held for sale and capable of being taken out of service and actively marketed in the period of impairment. Other exit costs principally consisted of environmental exit costs associated with chemical plant shutdowns. All repositioning actions, excluding environmental remediation, are expected to be completed by December 31, 2000. 46 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

We also recognized a $36 million charge resulting from an other than temporary decline in value of an equity investment due to a significant deterioration in market conditions and a $4 million charge related to an equity investee's severance action involving approximately 220 employees. The investee's severance action was completed by year-end. In 1998, we recognized a pretax charge of $54 million related to productivity initiatives which included workforce reductions and facility consolidations principally in our Home and Building Control and Industrial Control businesses. The components of the charge included severance costs of $46 million and other exit costs of $8 million. Global workforce reductions included approximately 1,200 sales, marketing, manufacturing and other administrative positions. Other exit costs consisted of lease termination penalties to consolidate field office locations and other period costs incurred to rationalize product lines. These actions were completed by December 31, 1999, with substantially all reserve spending occurring in 1999. In 1997, we recognized a pretax charge of $215 million for costs to eliminate AlliedSignal's three sector administrative offices; consolidate our automotive Consumer Products Group business; close four performance materials manufacturing facilities; and, execute a workforce reduction and facility consolidations in our Home and Building Control and Industrial Control businesses. The components of the charge included severance costs of $134 million, asset impairments of $42 million, and other exit costs of $39 million. Global workforce reductions included approximately 2,900 sales, marketing, manufacturing and other administrative positions. Asset impairments principally related to administrative and manufacturing facilities and equipment held for disposal. Other exit costs principally consisted of lease termination costs and other shut-down period expenses. These actions were essentially completed by December 31, 1998, with substantially all reserve spending and asset disposals occurring in 1998. In 1997, we also recognized other charges consisting of a $40 million write-off of capitalized business process reengineering costs associated with information technology projects as required by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 97-13, customer claims and legal settlements of $30 million, and other write-offs principally related to tangible and intangible assets removed from service, including inventory, of $43 million. We also recognized a $13 million charge related to an other than temporary decline in value of an equity investment resulting from the Asian economic downturn in late 1997.

The majority of these loss carryforwards were generated by certain subsidiaries prior to their acquisition in 1997 and have expiration dates through the year 2011. The use of pre-acquisition operating losses is subject to limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. We do not anticipate that these limitations will affect utilization of the carryforwards prior to their expiration. We also have foreign net operating losses of $434 million which are available to reduce future income tax payments in several countries, subject to varying expiration rules. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on approximately $1.6 billion of undistributed earnings of foreign affiliated companies, which are considered to be permanently reinvested. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of tax that might be payable on the eventual remittance of such earnings. Cash payments of income taxes during the years 1999, 1998 and 1997 were $625, $650 and $473 million, respectively.

The credit agreements which replaced previous credit agreements maintained by AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell were established for general corporate purposes including support for the issuance of commercial paper. We had no balance outstanding under either agreement at December 31, 1999. Neither of the credit agreements restrict our ability to pay dividends and neither contain financial covenants. The failure to comply with customary conditions or the occurrence of customary events of default contained in the credit agreements would prevent any further borrowings and would generally require the repayment of any outstanding borrowings under such credit agreements. Such events of default include (a) non-payment of credit agreement debt and interest thereon, (b) non-compliance with the terms of the credit agreement covenants, (c) cross-default with other debt in certain circumstances, (d) bankruptcy and (e) defaults upon obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. Additionally, each of the banks has the right to terminate its commitment to lend under the credit agreements if any person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 30 percent or more of our voting stock or, during any 12-month period, individuals who were directors of Honeywell at the beginning of the period cease to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors (the Board). Loans under the Five-Year Credit Agreement are required to be repaid no later than December 2, 2004. We have agreed to pay a facility fee of 0.065 percent per annum on the aggregate commitment for the Five-Year Credit Agreement, subject to increase or decrease in the event of changes in our long-term debt ratings. Interest on borrowings under the Five-Year Credit Agreement would be determined, at our option, by (a) an auction bidding procedure; (b) the highest of the floating base rate of the agent bank, 0.5 percent above the average CD rate, or 0.5 percent above the Federal funds rate or (c) the average Eurocurrency rate of three reference banks plus 0.135 percent (applicable margin). The applicable margin over the Eurocurrency rate on the Five-Year Credit Agreement is subject to increase or decrease if our long-term debt ratings change. The commitments under the 364-Day Credit Agreement terminate on November 30, 2000. Annually, prior to the Agreement's anniversary date, we may request that the termination date of the 364-Day Credit Agreement be extended by 364 days. We have agreed to pay a facility fee of 0.055 percent per annum on the aggregate commitment for the 364-Day Credit Agreement. Interest on borrowings under the 364-Day Credit Agreement would be determined, at our option, by (a) an auction bidding procedure; (b) the highest of the floating base rate of the agent bank, 0.5 percent above the average CD rate, or 0.5 percent above the Federal funds rate or (c) the average Eurocurrency rate of three reference banks plus 0.145 percent (applicable margin). In January 2000, we entered into an additional $1 billion bank revolving credit facility to be used to support the issuance of commercial paper to finance in part the acquisition of Pittway Corporation. This bank revolving credit facility expires on April 12, 2000 and has terms and conditions similar to the $2 billion 364-Day Credit Agreement.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Honeywell International Inc. (Dollars in Millions Except Per Share Amounts) NOTE 17 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS As a result of our global financing and operating activities, we are exposed to market risks from changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates, which may adversely affect our operating results and financial position. We minimize our risks from interest and foreign currency exchange rate fluctations through our normal financing and operating activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and do not use leveraged derivative financial instruments. Interest rate swap agreements are used to manage interest rate risk by adjusting our ratio of fixed to floating interest rates payable on our outstanding debt. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, interest rate swap agreements effectively changed $850 and $1,000 million, respectively, of fixed rate debt at an average rate of 6.6 and 7.0 percent, respectively, to LIBOR and commercial paper based floating rate debt. Other interest rate swaps at December 31, 1999 and 1998 effectively changed $250 and $450 million, respectively, of LIBOR and commercial paper based floating rate swaps and debt to fixed rate swaps and debt with an average fixed rate of 6.3 and 6.4 percent, respectively. Our interest rate swaps mature through the year 2007. Our exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from international financing activities between subsidiaries, and foreign currency denominated receivables, payables, and firm commitments arising from international transactions. We attempt to have all such transaction exposure hedged with internal natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through foreign currency forward and option agreements with third parties. We also use derivative financial instruments to hedge the impact of exchange rate movements on the translated U.S. dollar value of the net income for a number of foreign subsidiaries. Foreign currency forward and option agreements used to hedge net income are marked-to-market, with gains or losses recognized immediately in income. Our principal foreign currency exposures relate to the Belgian franc, the French franc, the German mark (collectively the Euro countries), and the British pound, the Canadian dollar, and the U.S. dollar. At December 31, 1999, we held or had written foreign currency forward and option agreements maturing through 2003. We write foreign currency options only in combination with purchased options as an integral transaction and economic alternative to using forward agreements. Derivative financial instruments expose us to counterparty credit risk for nonperformance and to market risk related to changes in interest or currency exchange rates. We manage our exposure to counterparty credit risk through specific minimum credit standards, diversification of counterparties, and procedures to monitor concentrations of credit risk. Our counterparties are substantial investment and commercial banks with significant experience using such derivative instruments. We monitor the impact of market risk on the fair value and cash flows of our derivative and other financial instruments considering reasonably possible changes in interest and currency exchange rates and restrict the use of derivative financial instruments to hedging activities. The values of our outstanding derivative financial instruments at December 31, 1999 and 1998 follows: Notional Principal Carrying Fair Amount Value Value(1) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DECEMBER 31, 1999 Interest rate swap agreements $1,100 $(4) $(36) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foreign currency exchange contracts 1,445 4 6 ================================================================================ DECEMBER 31, 1998 Interest rate swap agreements $1,450 $ 3 $ 6 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foreign currency exchange contracts 2,087 1 (4) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) The fair value of financial instruments is based on quoted market prices or other valuation techniques, as appropriate. Other financial instruments that are not carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at amounts, which approximate fair values, are certain debt instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt and related current maturities (excluding capitalized leases of $36 and $42 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively) were $2,705 and $3,018 million and the fair values were $2,702 and $3,278 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The fair values are estimated based on the quoted market price for the issues (if traded) or based on current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturity and characteristics. 52 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

NOTE 21 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LITTON LITIGATION On March 13, 1990, Litton Systems, Inc. (Litton) filed a legal action against the former Honeywell in U.S. District Court, Central District of California, Los Angeles (the trial court) with claims that were subsequently split into two separate cases. One alleges patent infringement under federal law for using an ion-beam process to coat mirrors incorporated in the former Honeywell's ring laser gyroscopes, and tortious interference under state law for interfering with Litton's prospective advantage with customers and contractual relationships with an inventor and his company, Ojai Research, Inc. The other case alleges monopolization and attempted monopolization under federal antitrust laws by the former Honeywell in the sale of inertial reference systems containing ring laser gyroscopes into the commercial aircraft market. The former Honeywell generally denied Litton's allegations in both cases. In the patent/tort case, the former Honeywell also contested the validity as well as the infringement of the patent, alleging, among other things, that the patent had been obtained by Litton's inequitable conduct before the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Patent/Tort Case U.S. District Court Judge Mariana Pfaelzer presided over a three month patent infringement and tortious interference trial in 1993. On August 31, 1993, a jury returned a verdict in favor of Litton, awarding damages against the former Honeywell in the amount of $1.2 billion on three claims. The former Honeywell filed post-trial motions contesting the verdict and damage award. On January 9, 1995, the trial court set them all aside, ruling, among other things, that the Litton patent was invalid due to obviousness, unenforceable because of Litton's inequitable conduct before the Patent and Trademark Office, and in any case, not infringed by the former Honeywell's current process. It further ruled that Litton's state tort claims were not supported by sufficient evidence. The trial court also held that if its rulings concerning liability were vacated or reversed on appeal, the former Honeywell should at least be granted a new trial on the issue of damages because the jury's award was inconsistent with the clear weight of the evidence and based upon a speculative damage study. The trial court's rulings were appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and on July 3, 1996, in a two to one split decision, a three judge panel of that court reversed the trial court's rulings of patent invalidity, unenforceability and non-infringement, and also found the former Honeywell to have violated California law by intentionally interfering with Litton's consultant contracts and customer prospects. However, the panel upheld two trial court rulings favorable to the former Honeywell, namely that the former Honeywell was entitled to a new trial for damages on all claims, and also to a grant of intervening patent rights which are to be defined and quantified by the trial court. After unsuccessfully requesting a rehearing of the panel's decision by the full Federal Circuit appellate court, the former Honeywell filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court on November 26, 1996, seeking review of the panel's decision. In the interim, Litton filed a motion and briefs with the trial court seeking injunctive relief against the former Honeywell's commercial ring laser gyroscope sales. After the former Honeywell and certain aircraft manufacturers filed briefs and made oral arguments opposing the injunction, the trial court denied Litton's motion on public interest grounds on December 23, 1996, and then scheduled the patent/tort damages retrial for May 6, 1997. On March 17, 1997, the U.S. Supreme Court granted the former Honeywell's petition for review and vacated the July 3, 1996 Federal Circuit panel decision. The case was remanded to the Federal Circuit panel for reconsideration in light of a recent decision by the U.S. Supreme Court in the Warner-Jenkinson vs. Hilton Davis case, which refined the law concerning patent infringement under the doctrine of equivalents. On March 21, 1997, Litton filed a notice of appeal to the Federal Circuit of the trial court's December 23, 1996 decision to deny injunctive relief, but the Federal Circuit stayed any briefing or consideration of that matter until such time as it completed its reconsideration of liability issues ordered by the U.S. Supreme Court. The liability issues were argued before the same three judge Federal Circuit panel on September 30, 1997. On April 7, 1998, the panel issued its decision: (i) affirming the trial court's ruling that the former Honeywell's hollow cathode and RF ion-beam processes do not literally infringe the asserted claims of Litton's `849 reissue patent (Litton's patent); (ii) vacating the trial court's ruling that the former Honeywell's RF ion-beam process does not infringe the asserted claims of Litton's patent under the doctrine of equivalents, but also vacating the jury's verdict on that issue and remanding that issue to the trial court for further proceedings in accordance with the Warner-Jenkinson decision; (iii) vacating the jury's verdict that the former Honeywell's hollow cathode process infringes the asserted claims of Litton's patent under the doctrine of equivalents and remanding that issue to the trial court for further proceedings; (iv) reversing the trial court's ruling with respect to the torts of intentional interference with contractual relations and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage, but also vacating the jury's verdict on that issue, and remanding the issue to the trial court for further proceedings in accordance with California state law; (v) affirming the trial court's grant of a new trial to the former Honeywell on damages for all claims, if necessary; (vi) affirming the trial court's order granting intervening rights to the former Honeywell in the patent claim; (vii) reversing the trial court's ruling that the asserted claims of Litton's patent were invalid due to obviousness and reinstating the jury's verdict on that issue; and (viii) reversing the trial court's determination that Litton had obtained Litton's patent through inequitable conduct. Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 55

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Honeywell International Inc. (Dollars in Millions Except Per Share Amounts) Litton's request for a rehearing of the panel's decision by the full Federal Circuit court was denied and its appeal of the denial of an injunction was dismissed. The case was remanded to the trial court for further legal and perhaps factual review. The parties filed motions with the trial court to dispose of the remanded issues as matters of law, which were argued before the trial court on July 26, 1999. On September 23, 1999, the trial court issued dispositive rulings in the case, granting the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law and Summary Judgment on the Patent claims on various grounds; granting the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law on the State Law Claims on the grounds of insufficient evidence; and denying Litton's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. We expect that Litton will appeal the trial court's rulings. When preparing for the patent/tort damages retrial that was scheduled for May 1997, Litton had submitted a revised damage study to the trial court, seeking damages as high as $1.9 billion. We believe that our ion-beam processes do not infringe Litton's patent, and further, that Litton's damage study remains flawed and speculative for a number of reasons. We expect that the trial court's latest rulings in the case will eventually be affirmed since they are consistent with the Federal Circuit's most recent opinions in this case and others which deal with alleged patent infringement under the doctrine of equivalence, and since, absent any patent infringement, Litton has not proven any tortious behavior by the former Honeywell which interfered with its contracts or business prospects. We also believe that it is reasonably possible that no damages will ultimately be awarded to Litton. Although it is not possible at this time to predict the result of any further appeals in this case, potential does remain for an adverse outcome which could be material to our financial position or results of operations. We believe however, that any potential award of damages for an adverse judgment of infringement or interference should be based upon a reasonable royalty reflecting the value of the ion-beam coating process, and further that such an award would not be material to our financial position or results of operations. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the outcome of this matter, no provision has been made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability. Antitrust Case Preparations for, and conduct of, the trial in the antitrust case have generally followed the completion of comparable proceedings in the patent/tort case. The antitrust trial did not begin until November 20, 1995. Judge Pfaelzer also presided over the trial, but it was held before a different jury. At the close of evidence and before jury deliberations began, the trial court dismissed, for failure of proof, Litton's contentions that the former Honeywell had illegally monopolized and attempted to monopolize by: (i) engaging in below-cost predatory pricing; (ii) tying and bundling product offerings under packaged pricing; (iii) misrepresenting its products and disparaging Litton products; and (iv) acquiring the Sperry Avionics business in 1986. On February 2, 1996, the case was submitted to the jury on the remaining allegations that the former Honeywell had illegally monopolized and attempted to monopolize by: (i) entering into certain long-term exclusive dealing and penalty arrangements with aircraft manufacturers and airlines to exclude Litton from the commercial aircraft market, and (ii) failing to provide Litton with access to proprietary software used in the cockpits of certain business jets. On February 29, 1996, the jury returned a $234 million single damages verdict against the former Honeywell for illegal monopolization, which verdict would have been automatically trebled. On March 1, 1996, the jury indicated that it was unable to reach a verdict on damages for the attempt to monopolize claim, and a mistrial was declared as to that claim. The former Honeywell subsequently filed a motion for judgment as a matter of law and a motion for a new trial, contending, among other things, that the jury's partial verdict should be overturned because the former Honeywell was prejudiced at trial, and Litton failed to prove essential elements of liability or submit competent evidence to support its speculative, all-or-nothing $298.5 million damage claim. Litton filed motions for entry of judgment and injunctive relief. On July 24, 1996, the trial court denied the former Honeywell's alternative motions for judgment as a matter of law or a complete new trial, but concluded that Litton's damage study was seriously flawed and granted the former Honeywell a retrial on damages only. The court also denied Litton's two motions. At that time, Judge Pfaelzer was expected to conduct the retrial of antitrust damages sometime following the retrial of patent/tort damages. However, after the U.S. Supreme Court remanded the patent/tort case to the Federal Circuit in March 1997, Litton moved to have the trial court expeditiously schedule the antitrust damages retrial. In September 1997, the trial court rejected that motion, indicating that it wished to know the outcome of the current patent/tort appeal before scheduling retrials of any type. Following the April 7, 1998 Federal Circuit panel decision in the patent/tort case, Litton again petitioned the trial court to schedule the retrial of antitrust damages. The trial court tentatively scheduled the trial to commence in the fourth quarter of 1998, and reopened limited discovery and other pretrial preparations. Litton then filed another antitrust damage claim of nearly $300 million. The damages only retrial began October 29, 1998 before Judge Pfaelzer and a new jury. On December 9, 1998, the jury returned verdicts against the former Honeywell totaling $250 million, $220 million of which is in favor of Litton and $30 million of which is in favor of its sister corporation, Litton Systems, Canada, Limited. 56 Honeywell 1999 Annual Report

On January 27, 1999, the court vacated its prior mistrial ruling with respect to the attempt to monopolize claim and entered a treble damages judgment in the total amount of $750 million for actual and attempted monopolization. The former Honeywell filed appropriate post-judgment motions with the trial court and Litton filed motions seeking to add substantial attorney's fees and costs to the judgment. A hearing on the post-judgment motions was held before the trial court on May 20, 1999. On September 24, 1999, the trial court issued rulings denying the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law and Motion for New Trial and Remittitur as they related to Litton Systems Inc., but granting the former Honeywell's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law as it relates to Litton Systems, Canada, Limited. The net effect of these rulings was to reduce the existing judgment against the former Honeywell of $750 million to $660 million, plus attorney fees and costs of approximately $35 million. Both parties have appealed the judgment, as to both liability and damages, to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Execution of the trial court's judgment will be stayed pending resolution of the former Honeywell's post-judgment motions and the disposition of any appeals filed by the parties. We expect to obtain substantial relief from the current adverse judgment in the antitrust case by an appeal to the Ninth Circuit, based upon sound substantive and procedural legal grounds. We believe that there was no factual or legal basis for the magnitude of the jury's award in the damages retrial and that, as was the case in the first trial, the jury's award should be overturned. We also believe there are serious questions concerning the identity and nature of the business arrangements and conduct which were found by the first antitrust jury in 1996 to be anti-competitive and damaging to Litton, and the verdict of liability should be overturned as a matter of law. Although it is not possible at this time to predict the result of any eventual appeals in this case, potential remains for an adverse outcome which could be material to our financial position or results of operations. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the outcome of this matter, no provision has been made in the financial statements with respect to this contingent liability. We also believe that it would be inappropriate for Litton to obtain recovery of the same damages, e.g. losses it suffered due to the former Honeywell's sales of ring laser gyroscope-based inertial systems to OEMs and airline customers, under multiple legal theories, claims, and cases, and that eventually any duplicative recovery would be eliminated from the antitrust and patent/tort cases. In the fall of 1996, Litton and the former Honeywell commenced a court ordered mediation of the patent, tort and antitrust claims. No claim was resolved or settled, and the mediation is currently in recess. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS In accordance with our accounting policy (see Note 1), liabilities are recorded for environmental matters generally no later than the completion of feasibility studies. Although we do not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of the liabilities to be recorded upon future completion of studies, they may be significant to the consolidated results of operations, but we do not expect that they will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. The liabilities for environmental costs recorded in Accrued Liabilities and Other Liabilities at December 31, 1999 were $104 and $245 million, respectively, and at December 31, 1998 were $128 and $278 million, respectively. OTHER MATTERS We are subject to a number of other lawsuits, investigations and claims (some of which involve substantial amounts) arising out of the conduct of our business. With respect to all these other matters, including those relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability and non-environmental health and safety matters, while the ultimate results of these lawsuits, investigations and claims cannot be determined, we do not expect that these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. We have issued or are a party to various direct and indirect guarantees, bank letters of credit and customer guarantees. We do not expect that these guarantees will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 57

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Honeywell International Inc. (Dollars in Millions Except Per Share Amounts) NOTE 22 PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS We provide separate pension and retiree medical benefit plans for employees of both AlliedSignal and the former Honeywell. Pension benefits for substantially all U.S. employees are provided through non-contributory, defined benefit pension plans. Employees in foreign countries, who are not U.S. citizens, are covered by various retirement benefit arrangements, some of which are considered to be defined benefit pension plans for accounting purposes. Our retiree medical plans cover U.S. and Canadian employees who retire with pension eligibility for hospital, professional and other medical services. Most of the U.S. retiree medical plans require deductibles and copayments and virtually all are integrated with Medicare. Retiree contributions are generally required based on coverage type, plan and Medicare eligibility. The retiree medical and life insurance plans are not funded. Claims and expenses are paid from our general assets. The following disclosures present financial information for the combined AlliedSignal and former Honeywell significant pension and retiree medical benefit plans using weighted-average assumptions to calculate benefit costs and obligations. Net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs (income) include the following components: Other Pension Postretirement Benefits Benefits ----------------------------- -------------------------- 1999 1998 1997 1999 1998 1997 ----------------------------- -------------------------- Service cost $ 229 $ 233 $ 212 $ 32 $ 30 $ 29 ----------------------------- -------------------------- Interest cost 710 721 707 125 121 129 ----------------------------- -------------------------- Assumed return on plan assets (1,062) (951) (849) -- -- -- ----------------------------- -------------------------- Amortization of prior service cost 50 45 43 (18) (18) (14) ----------------------------- -------------------------- Other (48) (40) (17) (79) (52) (17) - ------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------- Benefit cost (income) $ (121) $ 8 $ 96 $ 60 $ 81 $ 127 ====================================================== ========================== The following table summarizes the balance sheet impact, including the benefit obligations, assets,funded status and weighted average rate assumptions associated with our significant pension and retiree medical benefit plans.

The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $608, $534, and $210 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1999 and $623, $540 and $216 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1998. For measurement purposes, we assumed an annual health-care cost trend rate of 6 percent for 2000 and beyond. Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the health care plan. A one-percentage-point change in assumed health care cost trend rates would have the following effects: One-Percentage- One-Percentage- Point Increase Point Decrease - -------------------------------------------------------------- Effect on total of service and interest cost components $ 14 $ (12) ------------------------------------ Effect on postretirement benefit obligation $135 $(120) - -------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 23 SEGMENT FINANCIAL DATA Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" (SFAS No. 131), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 131 and is consistent with how business results are reported internally to management. We globally manage our business operations through strategic business units (SBUs) offering products and services to the aerospace, automation and control, chemicals, and automotive industries. Based on similar economic and operational characteristics, our SBUs are aggregated into the following four reportable segments: Aerospace Solutions includes Engines & Systems (auxiliary power units; propulsion engines; environmental control systems; engine controls; and power generation systems); Aerospace Electronic Systems (flight safety communications, navigation, radar and surveillance systems; aircraft and airfield lighting; and advanced systems and instruments); Aerospace Services (repair and overhaul services; hardware; logistics; and management and technical services); and Aircraft Landing Systems (aircraft wheels and brakes). Automation & Asset Management includes Home and Building Control (controls for heating, ventilating, humidification and air-conditioning equipment; energy-efficient lighting controls; home consumer products; security and fire alarm systems; home automation systems; and building management systems and services); and Industrial Control (systems for the automation and control of process operations; solid-state sensors for position, pressure, air flow, temperature and current; precision electromechanical switches; control products; advanced vision-based sensors; and fiber-optic components). Performance Materials includes Performance Polymers (fibers; plastic resins; specialty films; and intermediate chemicals); Specialty Chemicals (fluorine-based products; pharmaceutical and agricultural chemicals; specialty waxes, adhesives and sealants; and process technology); and Electronic Materials (wafer fabrication materials and services; printed circuit boards; advanced chip packaging and amorphous metals). Power & Transportation Products includes Transportation & Power Systems (turbochargers; charge-air coolers; portable power systems; air brake and anti-lock braking systems); the Consumer Products Group (car care products including anti-freeze, filters, spark plugs, cleaners, waxes and additives); and Friction Materials (friction material and related brake system components). The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1. We evaluate segment performance based on segment profit, which excludes general corporate unallocated expenses, gains on sales of non-strategic businesses, equity income, other income (expense), interest and other financial charges and merger, repositioning and other charges, and other. We do not disaggregate assets on a products and services basis for internal management reporting and, therefore, such information is not presented. Intersegment sales approximate market and are not significant. Reportable segment data were as follows: Honeywell 1999 Annual Report 59
