1. Grant of Award. The Company has granted you [NUMBER] Restricted Units, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan of Honeywell International Inc. and its Affiliates (the “Plan”).

“Actual Award” means the product of (i) the Plan Payout Percentage (as determined under Section 3), and (ii) your Target Award.

“Compensation Peer Group” means [INSERT COMPANY NAMES]. If there is any change in the corporate capitalization of a company in the Compensation Peer Group during a Measurement Period (such as a stock split, corporate transaction or any partial or complete liquidation), the Committee, in its sole discretion, may take such change into account in determining the Total Shareholder Return of that company. If any company included in the Compensation Peer Group ceases to exist or to be publicly traded during the Measurement Period, or undergoes any other similar change, the Committee shall determine the consequences of such event for purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation, the replacement of such company in the Compensation Peer Group.

“Measurement Period” means [DESCRIBE MEASUREMENT PERIOD].

“Total Shareholder Return” means the ratio of (A) a company’s share price as of the last trading day of a Measurement Period (determined using the average closing share price over the 30 preceding trading days) plus earned dividends per share during the Measurement Period, over (B) the company’s share price as of the first trading day of a Measurement Period (determined using the average closing share price over the 30 preceding trading days). Dividends are assumed earned and reinvested on the ex-dividend date.

4. [FOLLOWING INCLUDED AT COMMITTEE’S DISCRETION: Dividend Equivalents. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, you will earn Dividend Equivalents in an amount equal to the value of any cash or stock dividends paid by the Company upon one Share of Common Stock for each unvested Restricted Unit or Additional Restricted Unit (as defined below) credited to your bookkeeping account on a dividend record date. At the vesting date specified in Section 6, such Dividend Equivalents shall be adjusted up or down based on your Actual Award. In the case of cash dividends, the Company shall credit to your bookkeeping account, on each dividend payment date, an additional number of Restricted Units (“Additional Restricted Units”) equal to (a) divided by (b), where (a) equals the total number of unvested Restricted Units and Additional Restricted Units, if any, subject to this Agreement on such date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per Share of Common Stock on such date, and (b) equals the Fair Market Value of a Share on such date. If a dividend is paid to holders of Common Stock in Shares, the Company shall credit to you, on each dividend payment date, Additional Restricted Units equal to the total number of unvested Restricted Units and Additional Restricted Units subject to this Agreement on such date multiplied by the Share dividend paid per Share of Common Stock on such date.

Remedies.

19. Personal Data.

By entering into this Agreement, and as a condition of the grant of the Restricted Units, you expressly consent to the collection, use, and transfer of personal data as described in this Section to the full extent permitted by and in full compliance with applicable law.

You understand that your local employer holds, by means of an automated data file, certain personal information about you, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all restricted units or other entitlement to shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested, or

outstanding in your favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”).

You further understand that part or all of your Data may be also held by the Company or its Affiliates, pursuant to a transfer made in the past with your consent, in respect of any previous grant of restricted units or awards, which was made for the same purposes of managing and administering of previous award/incentive plans, or for other purposes.

You further understand that your local employer will transfer Data to the Company or its Affiliates among themselves as necessary for the purposes of implementation, administration, and management of your participation in the Plan, and that the Company or its Affiliates may transfer data among themselves, and/or each, in turn, further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan (“Data Recipients”).

You understand that the Company or its Affiliates, as well as the Data Recipients, are or may be located in your country of residence or elsewhere, such as the United States. You authorize the Company or its Affiliates, as well as the Data Recipients, to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer Data in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering, and managing your participation in the Plan, including any transfer of such Data, as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on your behalf, to a broker or third party with whom the Shares may be deposited.

You understand that you may show your opposition to the processing and transfer of your Data, and, may at any time, review the Data, request that any necessary amendments be made to it, or withdraw your consent herein in writing by contacting the Company. You further understand that withdrawing consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan.

20. Discretionary Nature and Acceptance of Award. By accepting this Award, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and acknowledge that:

The Company (and not your local employer) is granting your Restricted Units [and Additional Restricted Units]. Furthermore, this Agreement is not derived from any preexisting labor relationship between you and the Company, but rather from a mercantile relationship.

The Company may administer the Plan from outside your country of residence and United States law will govern all Restricted Units [and Additional Restricted Units] granted under the Plan.

Benefits and rights provided under the Plan are wholly discretionary and, although provided by the Company, do not constitute regular or periodic payments.

The benefits and rights provided under the Plan are not to be considered part of your salary or compensation under your employment with your local employer for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy or other end of service payments, vacation, bonuses, long-term service awards, indemnification, pension or retirement benefits, or any other payments, benefits or rights of any kind. You waive any and all rights to compensation or damages as a result of the termination of employment with

your local employer for any reason whatsoever insofar as those rights result, or may result, from the loss or diminution in value of such rights under the Plan or your ceasing to have any rights under, or ceasing to be entitled to any rights under, the Plan as a result of such termination.

The grant of Restricted Units [and Additional Restricted Units] hereunder, and any future grant of Restricted Units [or Additional Restricted Units] under the Plan, is entirely voluntary, and at the complete discretion of the Company. Neither the grant of the Restricted Units [, Additional Restricted Units] nor any future grant by the Company will be deemed to create any obligation to make any future grants, whether or not such a reservation is explicitly stated at the time of such a grant. The Company has the right, at any time and/or on an annual basis, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that no such amendment, suspension, or termination will adversely affect your rights hereunder.

The Plan will not be deemed to constitute, and will not be construed by you to constitute, part of the terms and conditions of employment. Neither the Company nor your local employer will incur any liability of any kind to you as a result of any change or amendment, or any cancellation, of the Plan at any time.

Participation in the Plan will not be deemed to constitute, and will not be deemed by you to constitute, an employment or labor relationship of any kind with the Company.

21. Limitations. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan gives you any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Affiliates or to interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate your employment at any time. Payment of your Restricted Units [and Additional Restricted Units] is not secured by a trust, insurance contract or other funding medium, and you do not have any interest in any fund or specific asset of the Company by reason of this Award or the account established on your behalf. You have no rights as a shareowner of the Company pursuant to the Restricted Units [and Additional Restricted Units] until Shares are actually delivered to you.

22. Incorporation of Other Agreements. This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding the Restricted Units. This Agreement supersedes any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Restricted Units [and Additional Restricted Units].

23. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of the Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. Moreover, if any provision is found to be excessively broad in duration, scope or covered activity, the provision shall be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.

24. Governing Law. The Plan, this Agreement, and all determinations made and actions taken under the Plan or this Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws, and not the choice of law rules, of the State of Delaware and construed accordingly, to the extent not superseded by applicable federal law.

25. Agreement Changes. The Company reserves the right to change the terms of this Agreement and the Plan without your consent to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with the requirements of Code section 409A, the Treasury regulations and other guidance thereunder.

26. Acknowledgements.
