ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

         Honeywell published its third quarter 2001 financial results on October
24, 2001. Honeywell reported free cash flow of $353 million, and stated that the
events of September 11 had resulted in an abrupt and unprecedented decline in
the aviation industry. In response, Honeywell has accelerated its cost-reduction
actions and further accelerated efforts to improve performance. Census
reductions are expected to total 15,800 by the end of the year. Honeywell's
income statements for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, as
well as the results of its business segments, are set forth below:

         The following table sets forth the historical ratios of earnings to
fixed charges of Honeywell for the periods indicated:



 Nine Months Ended
   September 30,                                Year Ended December 31,
-------------------         ----------------------------------------------------------------
2001           2000         2000           1999           1998           1997           1996
----           ----         ----           ----           ----           ----           ----
                                                                      
0.26(d)        5.73(c)      5.24(b)        6.74(a)        8.05           7.20           6.65


         The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is generally computed by
dividing the sum of net income, income taxes and fixed charges (net of
capitalized interest) less undistributed equity income by fixed charges. Fixed
charges represent gross interest and amortization of debt discount and expense
and the interest factor of all rentals, consisting of an appropriate interest
factor on operating leases.

(a) Included in earnings for 1999 were merger, repositioning and other
    charges, a gain on the sale of our Laminate Systems business and a gain
    on the sale of our investment in AMP Incorporated common stock resulting
    in a net pretax charge of $913 million. Excluding such charge, the ratio
    of earnings to fixed charges would have been 9.12.

(b) Included in earnings for 2000 were repositioning, environmental and other
    charges and asset impairments, and a gain on the sale of the TCAS product
    line of Honeywell Inc. resulting in a net pretax charge $854 million.
    Excluding such charge, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges would have
    been 6.66.

(c) Included in earnings for the nine months 2000 were repositioning and
    other charges and asset impairments, and a gain on the sale of the TCAS
    product line of Honeywell Inc. resulting in a net pretax charge $444
    million. Excluding such charge, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges
    would have been 6.72.

(d) Included in earnings for the nine months 2001 were repositioning and
    other charges, asset impairments and legal and environmental claims
    resulting in a net pretax charge $2,254 million. Excluding such charge,
    the ratio of earnings to fixed charges would have been 5.86.

As at September 30, 2001, Honeywell had (in millions):
