Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
------------------------------------
On April 12, 1996, AlliedSignal Inc. (the "Company") completed the
previously announced sale of its hydraulic braking and anti-lock braking
businesses to Robert Bosch GmbH ("Bosch") for $1.5 billion in cash,
subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The consideration received
by the Company was determined through negotiations between the Company
and Bosch.
Included in the sale are the Company's worldwide operations for
conventional hydraulic braking and anti-lock braking systems (ABS) for
cars, light trucks and medium- duty trucks. These operations accounted
for approximately $2.1 billion of the Company's 1995 sales of $14.3
billion. Not affected by the purchase are other Company Automotive
businesses representing $3.4 billion of 1995 sales. These include
friction materials, turbochargers, seat belts, air bags, filters, spark
plugs, and air brakes and ABS for heavy-duty trucks.
