Exhibit 10.6
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.

other premium pay, bonus, incentive or other extra compensation,
but inclusive of salary deferred for the Plan Year under this Plan
(“ Base Annual Salary ”), which would have been

without regard to any other limitations that may apply under the
Code, and the actual Before-Tax Contributions the Participant

for a 15-year term; provided however
3
that, for
2005, Participant Deferred Contributions credited to the Executive
Supplemental Savings Plan between January 1, 2005 and December 31,

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. 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

(to be posted each Valuation Date) equivalent to interest,

until such amounts are distributed.
(c) Plan Employer
Contributions . Plan Employer Contributions shall be credited
to the Participant’s Account under the Plan as unfunded book

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
