SUPPLEMENTAL NON-QUALIFIED SAVINGS PLAN FOR
HIGHLY COMPENSATED EMPLOYEES OF
HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

(amended and restated effective January 1, 2009)

1. History . Honeywell International Inc. (the “ Corporation ”) initially established this Supplemental Non-Qualified Savings Plan for Highly Compensation Employees of Honeywell International Inc. and its Subsidiaries (the “ Plan ”) effective January 1, 2006 when the Supplemental Non-Qualified Savings Plan For Highly Compensated Employees Of Honeywell International Inc. And Its Subsidiaries (Career Band 5 and Below) (the “ Supplemental Savings Plan ”) was merged with and into the Supplemental Non-Qualified Savings Plan for Highly Compensated Employees of Honeywell International Inc. and its Subsidiaries (Career Band 6 and above) (the “ Executive Supplemental Savings Plan ”) and the resulting plan from this merger became known as the Plan. The Plan is hereby amended and restated, effective as of January 1, 2009, to implement changes required pursuant to and consistent with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”), and the corresponding rules and final regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code with respect to amounts subject to such requirements. This Plan document covers any Participant (as defined below) who was entitled to receive a benefit from the Plan as of December 31, 2008, but did not receive full payment of such benefit under the Plan as of such date, as well as any individual who becomes a Participant in the Plan on or after January 1, 2009. Plan benefit payments commencing prior to January 1, 2009 are governed by the terms of Plan as they existed prior to this amendment and restatement and are either grandfathered from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or payable pursuant to a fixed schedule as required by, and in compliance with, Section 409A of the Code. Between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2008, with respect to payments that are subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the Plan has been operated in accordance with transition relief established by the Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. This amendment and restatement is adopted in conformity with final regulations under Section 409A of the Code issued by the Treasury Department on April 10, 2007 and effective January 1, 2009.

2. Eligibility . Any employee of the Corporation and its participating affiliates (i) who is in Career Band 6 or above during the designated election period (the “ Open Enrollment Period ”) that occurs prior to the beginning of the applicable Plan Year (as defined below), or (ii) (A) who is in Career Band 5 at any time during the Open Enrollment Period that occurs prior to the beginning of the applicable Plan Year and (B) whose Base Annual Salary (as defined in Subparagraph 4(a)(i) below) that is paid and posted to the Plan’s electronic recordkeeping system as of the last paydate in September of the Plan Year immediately preceding the applicable Plan Year exceeds the dollar limit for a highly compensated employee for the Plan Year under Section 414(q) of the Code, shall be eligible (an “ Eligible Employee ”) to participate in the Plan (subject to the limitations set forth in the following sentence) and elect deferrals of Base Annual Salary for such Plan Year effective as of the first paydate of such Plan Year that follows the Open Enrollment Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Eligible Employee may


only participate in the Plan for a Plan Year if such employee is eligible to participate in any of the qualified savings plans (as determined under Section 401(a) of the Code) maintained by the Corporation or its subsidiaries, other than a plan as may be designated by the Corporation from time to time (the “ Qualified Savings Plans ”), and has made an irrevocable election prior to the beginning of the applicable Plan Year to defer Base Annual Salary to the applicable Qualified Savings Plan.

The interest rate described in this paragraph is subject to change from Plan Year to Plan Year and shall be determined annually by the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation in consultation with the Treasurer of the Corporation prior to January 1 of each Plan Year.

          (iii) Participant Deferred Contributions credited to the Participant’s Account under the Executive Supplemental Savings Plan prior to January 1, 1994 or after the Participant has terminated employment shall accrue amounts (to be posted each Valuation Date) equivalent to interest, compounded daily, at a rate based upon the cost to the Corporation of borrowing at a fixed rate for a 15-year term.

     (c) Plan Employer Contributions . Plan Employer Contributions shall be credited to the Participant’s Account under the Plan as unfunded book entries stated as shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares). The number of shares of Common Stock credited to a Participant’s Account shall be determined by dividing the equivalent cash amount (as determined under Subparagraph 5(b)) by the closing price of Common Stock on the day that such Plan Employer Contributions are credited to the Participant’s Account. Amounts equivalent to the dividends that would have been payable in respect of the Common Stock shall be credited to the Participant’s Account as if reinvested in Common Stock, with the number of shares credited determined by dividing the equivalent cash dividend amount by the closing price of Common Stock on the date the dividends would have been payable. Amounts credited to the Participant’s Account shall accrue amounts equivalent to interest and dividends, as the case may be, until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
