Timetable for the Tender Offers

Purpose of the Tender Offers

We are making the Tender Offers to purchase certain outstanding debt issued by Honeywell, and, together with the redemption of certain outstanding series of Honeywell debt securities, as further described in the Offer to Purchase, to reduce our leverage in anticipation of the proposed distribution by Honeywell to its shareowners of 100% of the outstanding shares of Honeywell Aerospace Inc.’s common stock (the “Spin-Off”). Securities that are accepted in a Tender Offer will be purchased, retired and cancelled and will no longer remain outstanding obligations of Honeywell.

Details of the Tender Offers

The Tender Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 7, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by Honeywell in respect of a Tender Offer in its sole and absolute discretion (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Date”).  Securities tendered may be withdrawn at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 19, 2026, unless extended by Honeywell, in respect of a Tender Offer in its sole and absolute discretion (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Withdrawal Date”), but not thereafter. In this press release, we refer to Securities that have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as having been “validly tendered.”

Securities validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offers and accepted for purchase by Honeywell will be accepted for purchase based on the applicable acceptance priority levels set forth in the tables above (the “Acceptance Priority Levels”), subject to the limitation that the maximum aggregate purchase price to be paid for the Dollar Securities in the Dollar Tender Offer (excluding the accrued and unpaid interest on such Dollar Securities) will not exceed the Dollar Total Maximum Amount and the maximum aggregate purchase price to be paid for the Euro Securities in the Euro Tender Offer (excluding the accrued and unpaid interest on such Euro Securities) will not exceed the Euro Total Maximum Amount, and may be subject to proration, all as more fully described herein and in the Offer to Purchase.

A separate instruction must be submitted for each beneficial owner of Securities due to possible proration.

Holders (the “Holders”) of Securities that are validly tendered at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 19, 2026, unless extended by Honeywell in respect of a Tender Offer (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Early Participation Date”), and accepted for purchase will receive the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below) for their Securities, which includes the applicable early participation amount for the applicable series of Securities set forth in the tables above (the applicable “Early Participation Amount”), together with any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities from, and including, the most recent interest payment date prior to the applicable Payment Date (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) up to, but not including, the applicable Payment Date (“Accrued Interest”).  Subject to the terms and conditions described in herein and in the Offer to Purchase, including the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable, the applicable Acceptance Priority Levels and the proration procedures, Holders of Securities that are validly tendered after the applicable Early Participation Date and at or before the applicable Expiration Date and are accepted for purchase will receive only the applicable “Late Tender Offer Consideration,” which consists of the applicable Total Consideration minus the applicable Early Participation Amount, for each $1,000 or €1,000 principal amount, as applicable, of such tendered Securities, plus any Accrued Interest.  The applicable Total Consideration and the Late Tender Offer Consideration will be payable in cash.

Each Tender Offer is subject to certain conditions, including the Financing Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase).  The Tender Offers are not conditioned on any minimum amount of Securities being tendered.  Neither Tender Offer is conditioned on completion of the other, and each Tender Offer otherwise operates independently of the other Tender Offer.  Subject to Honeywell’s right to terminate one or both of the Tender Offers, and subject to the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable, the applicable Acceptance Priority Levels and proration, Honeywell will purchase the Securities that have been validly tendered at or before the applicable Expiration Date, subject to all conditions to such Tender Offer having been satisfied or waived by Honeywell promptly following the applicable Expiration Date (the date of such purchase, which is expected to be the second business day following the applicable Expiration Date, the “Final Payment Date”).  Honeywell reserves the right, but is not obligated, in its sole and absolute discretion, to purchase the Securities that have been validly tendered at or before the applicable Early Participation Date or following the applicable Early Participation Date but prior to the applicable Expiration Date, subject to all conditions to such Tender Offer having been satisfied or waived by Honeywell (the date of such purchase, the “Early Payment Date” and together with the Final Payment Date, each a “Payment Date”).

Honeywell also reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to applicable law, to terminate one or both of the Tender Offers at any time prior to the applicable Expiration Date. Securities that are accepted in the Tender Offers will be purchased, retired and cancelled and will no longer remain outstanding obligations of Honeywell.

The Securities accepted for purchase will be accepted in accordance with their Acceptance Priority Levels (with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level in each Tender Offer, 17 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level with respect to the Dollar Tender Offer and 7 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level with respect to the Euro Tender Offer), subject to the limitation that the overall aggregate purchase price to be paid for the Securities in each of the Tender Offers (excluding the accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities) will not exceed the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable.

Securities validly tendered on or before the applicable Early Participation Date having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted before any Securities validly tendered on or before the Early Participation Date having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted in each of the Tender Offers, and all Securities validly tendered after the applicable Early Participation Date having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted before any Securities tendered after the applicable Early Participation Date having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted in the applicable Tender Offer, in each case subject to the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable.  Securities validly tendered on or before the Early Participation Date will be accepted for purchase in priority to other Securities tendered after the Early Participation Date, even if such Securities tendered after the Early Participation Date have a higher Acceptance Priority Level than Securities tendered on or before the Early Participation Date.  Furthermore, if the amount of Securities validly tendered prior to or at the Early Participation Date exceeds the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable, Holders who validly tender Securities in a Tender Offer after the Early Participation Date will not have any of their Securities accepted for purchase regardless of the Acceptance Priority Level of such Securities unless Honeywell increases the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable.

Subject to applicable law, Honeywell reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to waive or modify any one or more of the conditions to the Tender Offers in whole or in part at any time on or prior to the date that any Securities are first accepted for purchase or to (i) increase the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount or (ii) decrease the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount.  Any such increase or decrease may be made on the basis of Securities validly tendered through the applicable Early Participation Date and promptly announced on the business day immediately following the applicable Early Participation Date.  Any such increase or decrease may be made without extending the Withdrawal Date or otherwise reinstating withdrawal rights, except as required by applicable law.

If Honeywell exercises its right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to purchase the Securities on an Early Payment Date and, on such Early Payment Date, or on the Final Payment Date, there are sufficient remaining funds to purchase some, but not all, of the remaining tendered Securities in any Acceptance Priority Level without exceeding the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable, Honeywell will accept for payment such tendered Securities on a prorated basis, with the proration factor for such Acceptance Priority Level depending on the aggregate principal amount of Securities of such Acceptance Priority Level validly tendered.

The “Total Consideration” payable for each series of Securities will be a price per $1,000 or €1,000 principal amount of such series of Securities validly tendered pursuant to the applicable Tender Offer on or prior to the applicable Early Participation Date, and accepted for purchase by us (subject to the applicable Acceptance Priority Levels, the Dollar Total Maximum Amount or the Euro Total Maximum Amount, as applicable, and proration, if any), equal to an amount in the currency in which the applicable Securities are denominated, calculated in accordance with Schedule C-1 or C-2 to the Offer to Purchase, as applicable, that would reflect, as of the applicable Early Payment Date or, to the extent Honeywell does not exercise its right to purchase the Securities on such Early Payment Date, as of the applicable Final Payment Date: (i) for each series of Dollar Securities , a yield to the applicable maturity date or par call date, as the case may be, in accordance with standard market practice, of such series of Securities equal to the sum of (a) the Reference Yield (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) of the applicable reference security set forth in Table 1 above, determined at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day following the applicable Early Participation Date (the “Reference Yield Determination Date”), plus (b) the fixed spread applicable to such series, set forth in the Table 1 above, (ii) for the series of Euro Securities constituting the 3.500% Notes and the 2.250% Notes, a yield to the applicable maturity date in accordance with standard market practice, of such series of Securities equal to the sum of (a) the Reference Yield (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) of the applicable reference security set forth in Table 2 above, determined at the Reference Yield Determination Date, plus (b) the fixed spread applicable to such series, set forth in Table 2 above, provided that if such Total Consideration is below €1,000, the Total Consideration will be €1,000, and (iii) for each of the other series of Euro Securities, a yield to the applicable maturity date or par call date, as the case may be, in accordance with standard market practice, of such series of Securities equal to the sum of (a) the reference yield (corresponding to the applicable Interpolated Rate (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) determined at the Reference Yield Determination Date, plus (b) the fixed spread applicable to such series set forth in Table 2 above, in each case, minus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities from, and including, the most recent interest payment date prior to the applicable Payment Date up to, but not including, such Payment Date.  The applicable Total Consideration already includes the Early Participation Amount for the applicable series of Securities set forth in the tables above. For the avoidance of doubt, the Early Participation Amount is already included within the Total Consideration, and is not in addition to the Total Consideration.
