TABLE OF CONTENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PAGE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT 1 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits, December 31, 1998 and 1997 2,3 Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits, Years Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 4,5 Notes to Financial Statements 6 EXHIBIT 23.1 Independent Auditors' Consent i INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Honeywell Savings and Stock Ownership Plan We have audited the statements of net assets available for benefits of the Honeywell Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental information by fund is presented for the purpose of additional analysis of the basic financial statements, rather than to present information regarding the net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of the individual funds, and it is not a required part of the basic financial statements. This supplemental information by fund is the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such supplemental information by fund has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

HONEYWELL SAVINGS AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The financial statements of the Honeywell Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (the Plan) are prepared under the accrual method of accounting. Contributions to the Plan are included in income in the year the contributions payable are accrued by Honeywell Inc. (the Sponsor) or paid in by plan participants. INVESTMENT VALUATION - All determinations of fair values of investments are made by the trustees and are based upon quoted prices in an active market, except unallocated insurance contracts, which are valued at their contract values, as determined by the issuing insurance companies. PAYMENT OF BENEFITS - Benefits are recorded when paid. 2. PLAN DESCRIPTION Effective January 1, 1997, the Investment Plus Plan of Honeywell Inc. was renamed as the Honeywell Savings and Stock Ownership Plan. Effective January 1, 1997, the DMC 401(k) Plan, which was also sponsored by Honeywell Inc., was merged into the Plan. Effective January 2, 1998, the Measurex Retirement Results Plan was merged into the Plan due to the acquisition of Measurex by Honeywell on March 10, 1997. Plan assets of approximately $105,400,000 were transferred into the Plan as a result of this merger. GENERAL INFORMATION - The Plan is a qualified, tax-deferred savings plan designed to provide qualified retirement benefits to Honeywell Inc. employees. The Board of Directors selects the standing member positions of the Savings Plan Committee, which is a named fiduciary in the document. The Savings Plan Committee has the authority to take such actions as may be necessary for the administration of the Plan. The Savings Plan Committee appoints the members to the Honeywell Pension and Retirement Administrative Committee and may delegate certain responsibilities to this Committee. CONTRIBUTIONS - The following contributions are made to the Plan: (a) The Sponsor contributes to the Plan, on behalf of the participants, various percentages of the participants' pay as elected by the participants. The maximum pretax and after-tax contribution percentages are determined by the Honeywell Pension and Retirement Administrative Committee. Participants elect their own salary reduction contribution levels, subject to these limits. 6 (b) Participants who have received distributions from other qualified plans under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code or from individual retirement plans under Sections 402 and 408 of the code may transfer (rollover) all or a part of such distribution to their accounts. (c) All nonunion employees are eligible to receive stock match contributions. The Sponsor contributes between $.50 and $1.00 in Honeywell stock to the participants' Performance stock match fund account for each $1.00 the participants contribute to their pretax account. Such sponsor contribution is limited to a maximum of 5% of the participants' pay. Additional contributions may be made based on the return on investment (as defined) attained by the Plan Sponsor for the respective year. In addition, the Plan Sponsor reserves the right to make additional discretionary contributions. (d) As a plan enhancement, participants are given the option, following the payment of dividends on employer stock allocated to their individual accounts, to elect to contribute as an additional salary reduction contribution an amount equal to dividends paid. LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS - The Plan allows participants to apply for and obtain a loan in an amount as defined in the Plan (in increments of $100, an amount that is not less than $1,000 and not more than the lesser of $50,000 and 50% of their pretax and rollover account balances) from the balance of their accounts. The loans can be repaid through payroll deductions over the period of 12 to 48 months or up to 180 months for the purchase of a primary residence, or they can be repaid in full at any time that is at least 3 months following the date of the loan. Payments of principal and interest are credited to the participants' accounts and invested pursuant to their current investment election for contributions. Also, participants may have only one outstanding loan at a time. PARTICIPATION - Each nonunion employee of the Sponsor classified as a regular employee or a supplemental employee during the plan year becomes a participant on the date of hire by the Sponsor or transfer into the Plan. Limited service employees scheduled to perform less than 1,000 hours of service during the plan year become participants on the following July 1 or January 1, after performing 1,000 hours of service. In addition, union employees may participate in the plan subject to relevant collective bargaining agreements. VESTING - Participants are 100% vested in their individual accounts attributable to their salary-deferral and rollover contributions and become 100% vested in the portion of their accounts attributable to sponsor contributions after three years of service, change of control, attainment of age 65, or upon death or disability. In the event of plan termination, the individual participants' accounts become distributable to the participants or their beneficiaries in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. FORFEITURES - All nonvested Plan Sponsor contributions are forfeited by participants when they terminate employment. Such forfeitures are used to restore account balances to certain former employees who return to service within five years of separation. Any remaining forfeitures reduce the Sponsor's matching and profit sharing contributions. 7 INVESTMENT OPTIONS - For contributions, the Plan provides for several investment options. All funds are held by Master Trusts. Individual participants choose the fund or funds in which to invest from the following: GOVERNMENT INCOME FUND - Invests primarily in short-term U.S. Government securities. SHORT-TERM BOND FUND - Invests in U.S. Government, mortgage, and high-quality corporate bonds with short- and intermediate-term (one to five years) maturities.

PLAN STATUS - The Plan obtained its latest determination letter in February 1999 from the Internal Revenue Service. The plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial statements. PLAN TERMINATION - Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Sponsor has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In the event of plan termination, participants shall be 100% vested in their accounts. 3. INVESTMENT IN EXECUTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Plan's Isolated Funds consisted primarily of investments in Executive Life Insurance Company (Executive Life) guaranteed investment contracts (GICs), which represented less than 1% of total net assets available for benefits for both years. In 1991, the State of California insurance commissioner seized Executive Life and placed it in a court-supervised conservatorship. As of the report date, June 11, 1999, the Plan has received 91% of the contract balance. Further, the Plan's management currently estimates that the sum of additional distributions from the conservator and recoveries from various state guarantee funds will not differ significantly from the remaining recorded contract values. After the conservatorship was established, the Sponsor isolated the Executive Life GICs into the Isolated Fund pursuant to a plan amendment requiring such action. Currently, there are certain restrictions on the ability to withdraw, transfer, or conduct settlement activity with respect to the remaining balances. 4. INTEREST IN MASTER TRUSTS The Plan's investments are included in Master Trusts with T. Rowe Price Trust Company and U.S. Bank National Association, which were established in 1993 for the investment of assets of the Plan and several other Honeywell-sponsored retirement plans. Previously, the Plan's investments were held in Master Trusts with various trust companies. Each participating plan has an undivided interest in the Master Trusts. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Plan's interest in the net assets of the Master Trusts was approximately 99.9%, in both years. Investment income and administrative expenses related to the Master Trust are allocated to the individual plans based upon average monthly balances invested by each plan. 9 The following table presents the fair value of investments held in Master Trusts (in thousands): 1998 1997 ---- ---- Investments at fair value: Custom funds: Government Income Fund $ 405,703 $ 351,626 Short-Term Bonds Fund 35,670 17,050 Diversified Income Fund 76,692 53,566 Diversified Balanced Fund 376,469 335,838 S&P 500 Fund 714,874 550,320 Honeywell Stock Fund 552,364 486,146 Mutual funds, primarily equity securities 587,066 450,322 Participants' loans 42,645 36,203 ---------- ---------- $2,791,483 $2,281,071 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Investment income for the Master Trust is as follows (in thousands): Net appreciation in fair value of investments: Custom funds: Short-Term Bond Fund $ 1,887 $ 1,063 Diversified Income Fund 8,708 6,437 Diversified Balanced Fund 62,215 55,009 S&P 500 Fund 161,309 136,367 Honeywell Stock Fund 50,802 18,488 Mutual funds, primarily equity securities 44,825 31,918 ---------- ---------- 329,746 249,282 Interest and dividends 76,602 64,274 ---------- ---------- $ 406,348 $ 313,556 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- In 1993, the Sponsor transferred the GICs issued by Executive Life and Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company to U.S. Bank National Association. A Master Trust was established for the investment of these assets of the Plan and several other Honeywell-sponsored retirement plans. Each participating retirement plan has an undivided interest in the Master Trust. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Plan's interest in the net assets of the Master Trust was approximately 99%. The contract value of the GICs for the Master Trust was approximately $6.6 million at December 1, 1998 and 1997. 5. PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS There were no prohibited party-in-interest transactions during the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. 6. INFORMATION PROVIDED BY TRUSTEES Plan funds are held in trust by trustees for the sole purpose of making investments and plan payments and paying trust operating expenses. Trustees appointed by the Honeywell Pension and Retirement Committee as of December 31, 1998 were T. Rowe Price Trust Company and U.S. Bank National Association. 10 The trustees provide the Plan with monthly statements which report all transactions. The plan administrator has obtained certifications from the trustees that the information in such statements is complete and accurate. The amounts in the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and of changes in net assets available for benefits have been derived from the information submitted by the trustees, except for certain adjustments which resulted in increases in the amount of net assets reported of $1,391,286 and $2,134,612 as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Such adjustments are primarily recorded for the purpose of converting the trustees' statements from the cash basis to the accrual basis of accounting and to reflect the impact of participant loan activity. The Government Income Fund, Stocks Plus Fund, S&P 500 Fund, and Honeywell Stock Fund individually represent 5% or more of net assets available for benefits at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. 7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Effective June 7, 1999, Honeywell Inc., the Sponsor, and AlliedSignal Inc. signed a definitive merger agreement. The Sponsor has not yet determined the impact this event will have upon the Plan. 11 SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the trustees (or other persons who administer the employee benefit plan) have duly caused this annual report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
