INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On June 29, 2001, Rockwell International Corporation ("Registrant") completed the spin-off of its Avionics and Communications business to holders of shares of common stock, par value $1 per share, of Registrant by means of the distribution (the "Distribution") to such holders of all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Rockwell Collins, Inc., then a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Registrant ("Rockwell Collins"), including the preferred share purchase rights associated with such common stock (collectively, "Rockwell Collins Common Stock"). Rockwell Collins began operations as an independent, separately traded, publicly-held company on June 30, 2001.

The Distribution was made without the payment of any consideration or the exchange of any shares by Registrant's shareowners. In the Distribution, Registrant's shareowners received one share of Rockwell Collins Common Stock for each share of common stock of Registrant held of record as of the close of business on June 15, 2001. Ownership of Rockwell Collins Common Stock was registered in book-entry form and each shareowner of Registrant will receive a stock distribution statement indicating the number of shares of Rockwell Collins Common Stock that has been credited to the shareowner.

In connection with the Distribution, on June 29, 2001 Registrant, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Scientific Company LLC ("Rockwell Science Center") entered into a Distribution Agreement and an Employee Matters Agreement, which are filed herewith as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively. In addition, Registrant and Rockwell Collins entered into a Tax Allocation Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.3.

As previously announced, Registrant received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that the Distribution will be tax-free to Registrant's shareowners for United States federal income tax purposes.

In connection with the Distribution, Rockwell Collins Common Stock was registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. "When-issued" trading in Rockwell Collins Common Stock commenced on the New York Stock Exchange on June 15, 2001 under the trading symbol "COL WI". Rockwell Collins Common Stock began trading "regular way" on the New York Stock Exchange on July 2, 2001 under the trading symbol "COL".

executing such documents or commencing such steps. Rockwell Science Center hereby constitutes and appoints Rockwell the true and lawful attorney of Rockwell Science Center and its Subsidiaries to act as their attorney-in-fact to execute any documents and to take all necessary steps to cause Rockwell Science Center and its Subsidiaries to perform any of their obligations set forth in this Section 3.10(e), provided however, that Rockwell will provide Rockwell Science Center sixty days written notice prior to executing such documents or commencing such steps.

(f) From and after the Distribution Date, the Rockwell Automation Group will not hold itself out as having an affiliation with the Rockwell Collins Group.

SECTION 3.11 Consents. Prior to and after the Distribution Date, Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center will, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts (as requested by any other party) to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, all Consents and to resolve all impracticalities of assignments or transfers necessary for the transfer of all Assets, Subsidiaries and Liabilities contemplated to be transferred pursuant to this Article III; provided, however, that none of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins or Rockwell Science Center or their respective Subsidiaries shall be obligated to pay any consideration or offer or grant any financial accommodation in connection therewith. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Contract, License or Asset if an assignment or attempted assignment of the same without the Consent of any other party or parties thereto or other required Consent would constitute a breach thereof or of any applicable law or in any way impair the rights of any member of the Rockwell Automation Group, the Rockwell Collins Group or the Rockwell Science Center Group, as the case may be, thereunder. If any such Consent is not obtained or if an attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair any member of a Group's rights under any such Contract, License or Asset so that the contemplated assignee hereunder (the "Recipient Party") would not receive all such rights, then (x) the party contemplated hereunder to assign such Contract, License or Asset (the "Assigning Party") will use reasonable best efforts (it being understood that such efforts shall not include any requirement of the Assigning Party to pay any consideration or offer or grant any financial accommodation) to provide or cause to be provided to the Recipient Party, to the extent permitted by law, the benefits of any such Contract, License or Asset and the Assigning Party will promptly pay or cause to be paid to the Recipient Party when received all moneys and properties received by the Assigning Party with respect to any such Contract, License or Asset and (y) the Recipient Party will pay, perform and discharge on behalf of the Assigning Party all of the Assigning Party's Liabilities thereunder in a timely manner and in accordance with the terms thereof. In addition, the Assigning Party will take such other actions (at the Recipient Party's expense) as may reasonably be requested by the Recipient Party in order to place the Recipient Party, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such Contract, License or Asset had been transferred as contemplated hereby and so all the benefits and burdens relating thereto, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain and dominion, control and command, shall inure to the Recipient Party. If and when such Consents are obtained, the transfer of the applicable Contract, License or Asset shall be effected as promptly following the Time of Distribution as shall be practicable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. To the extent that any transfers and assumptions contemplated by this Article III shall not have been consummated on or prior to the Time of Distribution, the parties shall

58

cooperate to effect such transfers as promptly following the Time of Distribution as shall be practicable, it nonetheless being agreed and understood by the parties that no party shall be liable in any manner to any other party for any failure of any of the transfers contemplated by this Article III to be consummated prior to the Time of Distribution.

(a) The amount which any party (an "Indemnifying Party") is or may be required to pay to an Indemnitee in respect of Indemnifiable Losses or other Liability for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement shall be reduced by any amounts actually received (including Insurance Proceeds actually received) by or on behalf of such Indemnitee

69

(net of increased insurance premiums and charges related directly and solely to the related Indemnifiable Losses and costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with seeking to collect and collecting such amounts) in respect of such Indemnifiable Losses or other Liability (such net amounts are referred to herein as "Indemnity Reduction Amounts"). If any Indemnitee receives any Indemnity Reduction Amounts in respect of an Indemnifiable Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement after the full amount of such Indemnifiable Loss has been paid by an Indemnifying Party or after an Indemnifying Party has made a partial payment of such Indemnifiable Loss and such Indemnity Reduction Amounts exceeds the remaining unpaid balance of such Indemnifiable Loss, then the Indemnitee shall promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess (if any) of (A) the amount theretofore paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Indemnifiable Loss, less (B) the amount of the indemnity payment that would have been due if such Indemnity Reduction Amounts in respect thereof had been received before the indemnity payment was made. An insurer or other third party who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to any benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof.

(b) In determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Losses, such amount shall be (i) reduced to take into account any net Tax benefit realized by the Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment by the Indemnitee of such Indemnifiable Losses and (ii) increased to take into account any net Tax cost incurred by the Indemnitee as a result of the receipt or accrual of payments hereunder (grossed-up for such increase), in each case determined by treating the Indemnitee as recognizing all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from such Indemnifiable Losses. It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that indemnity payments made pursuant to this Agreement are to be treated as relating back to the Distribution as an adjustment to capital (i.e., capital contribution or distribution), and the parties shall not take any position inconsistent with such intention before any Tax Authority (as defined in the Tax Allocation Agreement), except to the extent that a final determination (as defined in
Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to the recipient party causes any such payment not to be so treated.

SECTION 4.06 Procedures Relating to Indemnification.

(a) If a claim or demand is made against an Indemnitee, or an Indemnitee shall otherwise learn of an assertion, by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (or an Affiliate thereof) as to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (a "Third Party Claim"), such Indemnitee will notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third Party Claim reasonably promptly after becoming aware of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification will not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnitee will deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the

70

Indemnitee's receipt thereof, copies of all material notices and documents (including court papers) received or transmitted by the Indemnitee relating to the Third Party Claim.

(b) If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in or to assume the defense thereof (in either case, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof; provided, that if in the Indemnitee's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest exists in respect of such claim or if the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed responsibility for such claim with any reservations or exceptions, such Indemnitee will have the right to employ separate counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party to represent such Indemnitee and in that event the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel (but not more than one separate counsel for all Indemnitees similarly situated) shall be paid by such Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee will have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party will control such defense. The Indemnifying Party will be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnitee for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will promptly supply to the Indemnitee copies of all material correspondence and documents relating to or in connection with such Third Party Claim and keep the Indemnitee fully informed of all material developments relating to or in connection with such Third Party Claim (including providing to the Indemnitee on request updates and summaries as to the status thereof). If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend a Third Party Claim, the parties hereto will cooperate in the defense thereof (such cooperation to be at the expense, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, of the Indemnifying Party), which cooperation shall include the retention in accordance with this Agreement and (upon the Indemnifying Party's request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(c) No Indemnifying Party will consent to any settlement, compromise or discharge (including the consent to entry of any judgment) of any Third Party Claim without the Indemnitee's prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld); provided, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of Indemnifiable Losses in connection with such Third Party Claim and unconditionally and irrevocably releases the Indemnitee and its Affiliates completely from all Liability in connection with such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnitee may refuse to agree to any such settlement, compromise or discharge (x) that provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates or (y) that, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, would otherwise materially adversely affect the

71

Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee will not (unless required by law) admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party's prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

(d) Any claim on account of Indemnifiable Losses which does not involve a Third Party Claim will be asserted by reasonably prompt written notice given by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party from whom such indemnification is sought. The failure by any Indemnitee so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnitee under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by such failure.

(e) In the event of payment in full by an Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party will be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right or claim relating to such Third Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee will cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right or claim.

SECTION 4.07 Remedies Cumulative. Subject to the provisions of
Section 6.06, the remedies provided in this Article IV shall be cumulative and shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

SECTION 4.08 Survival of Indemnities. The obligations of each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center under this Article IV will not terminate at any time and will survive the sale or other transfer by any party of any assets or businesses or the assignment by any party of any Liabilities with respect to any Indemnifiable Losses of the other related to such assets, businesses or Liabilities.

SECTION 4.09 Exclusivity of Tax Allocation Agreement and Science Center Tax Allocation Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) the Tax Allocation Agreement will be the exclusive agreement between Rockwell and Rockwell Collins with respect to all Tax matters, including indemnification in respect of Tax matters and (b) the Science Center Tax Allocation Agreement will be the exclusive agreement between Rockwell and Rockwell Science Center with respect to all Tax matters, including indemnification in respect of Tax matters.

(g) Without limiting the foregoing, Information may be requested under this Article V for audit, accounting, claims, litigation, insurance, environmental and safety and tax purposes, as well as for purposes of fulfilling disclosure and reporting obligations and for performing this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

In furtherance of the foregoing:

(i) Each party acknowledges that (A) each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and the Rockwell Science Center (and the members of the Rockwell Automation Group, the Rockwell Collins Group and the Rockwell Science Center Group, respectively) has or may obtain Privileged Information; (B) there are a number of Actions affecting one or more of the members of the Rockwell Automation Group, the Rockwell Collins Group and the Rockwell Science Center Group; (C) the parties may have a common legal interest in Actions, in the Privileged Information, and in the preservation of the confidential status of the Privileged Information; and (D) each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center intends that the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements and any transfer of Privileged Information in connection therewith shall not operate as a waiver of any potentially applicable privilege.

(ii) Each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center agrees, on behalf of itself and each member of the Group of which it is a member, not to disclose or otherwise waive any privilege attaching to any Privileged Information relating to the business of another Group without providing prompt written notice to and obtaining the prior written consent of the applicable other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. In the event of a disagreement between any member of the Rockwell Automation Group, any member of the Rockwell Collins Group and/or any member of the Rockwell Science Center Group concerning the reasonableness of

74

withholding such consent, no disclosure will be made prior to a final, nonappealable resolution of such disagreement.

(iii) Upon any member of the Rockwell Automation Group, any member of the Rockwell Collins Group or any member of the Rockwell Science Center Group receiving any subpoena or other compulsory disclosure notice from a court, other Governmental Entity or otherwise which requests disclosure of Privileged Information, in each case relating to the business of another Group, the recipient of the notice will promptly provide to the applicable other party (following the notice provisions set forth herein) a copy of such notice, the intended response, and all materials or information relating to the other Group that might be disclosed. In the event of a disagreement as to the intended response or disclosure, unless and until the disagreement is resolved as provided in Section 5.01(g)(ii), the parties will cooperate to assert all defenses to disclosure claimed by any Group, at the cost and expense of the Group claiming such defense to disclosure, and shall not disclose any disputed documents or information until all legal defenses and claims of privilege have been finally determined.

SECTION 5.02 Production of Witnesses. Subject to Section 5.01, after the Time of Distribution, each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center will, and will cause each member of the Rockwell Automation Group, the Rockwell Collins Group and the Rockwell Science Center Group, respectively, to, make available to each other party and members of such other party's Group, upon written request and at the cost and expense of the party so requesting, its directors, officers, employees and agents as witnesses to the extent that any such Person may reasonably be required (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with any Actions or other proceedings in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved, provided that the same shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of business by the Group of which the request is made.

SECTION 5.03 Retention of Records. Except as otherwise required by law or agreed to by the parties in writing, if any Information relating to the business, assets or Liabilities of a member of a Group is retained by a member of any other Group, each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center will, and will cause the members of the Group of which it is a member to, retain for the period required by the applicable Rockwell records retention policy in effect immediately prior to the Time of Distribution all such Information in such Group's possession or under its control. In addition, after the expiration of such required retention period, if any member of a Group wishes to destroy or dispose of any such Information, prior to destroying or disposing of any of such Information, (1) Rockwell, Rockwell Collins or Rockwell Science Center, on behalf of the member of its Group that is proposing to dispose of or destroy any such Information, will provide no less than 30 days' prior written notice to the applicable other party, specifying in reasonable detail the Information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of, and

75

SECTION 5.04 Confidentiality. Subject to Section 5.01, which shall govern Privileged Information, from and after the Time of Distribution, each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center shall hold, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause members of its Group and its and their Representatives to hold, in strict confidence all Information concerning each other party's Group in its possession or control or furnished to it by such other party's Group pursuant to the Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby and will not release or disclose such Information to any other Person, except members of its Group and its and their Representatives, who will be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.04; provided, however, that any member of the Rockwell Automation Group, the Rockwell Collins Group or the Rockwell Science Center Group may disclose such Information to the extent that
(a) disclosure is compelled by judicial or administrative process or, in the opinion of such Person's counsel, by other requirements of law (in which case the party required to make such disclosure will notify the other party as soon as practicable of such obligation or requirement and cooperate with the other party to limit the Information required to be disclosed and to obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy with respect to the Information ultimately disclosed) or (b) such Person can show that such Information was (i) available to such Person on a nonconfidential basis (other than from a member of another party's Group) prior to its disclosure by such Person, (ii) in the public domain through no fault of such Person, or (iii) lawfully acquired by such Person from another source after the time that it was furnished to such Person by another party's Group, and not acquired from such source subject to any confidentiality obligation on the part of such source known to the acquiror, or on the part of the acquiror. Each party acknowledges that it will be liable for any breach of this Section 5.04 by its Representatives to whom such Information is disclosed by such party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations under this Section 5.04 with respect to any Information (other than Privileged Information) if it exercises the same care with regard to such Information as it takes to preserve confidentiality for its own similar Information.

SECTION 6.06 Dispute Resolution. In the event that any dispute, claim or controversy (collectively, a "dispute") arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, the Tax Allocation Agreement or the Science Center Tax Allocation Agreement, any provision of this Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, the Tax Allocation Agreement or the Science Center Tax Allocation Agreement or the breach, performance, enforcement or validity or invalidity of any thereof, the Chief Financial Officers of the parties affected thereby will attempt a good faith resolution of such dispute within 30 days after any party notifies any other party in writing of such dispute. If the dispute is not resolved by such designees within 30 days of receipt of such notification, or within such other time as they may agree, such dispute will be referred for resolution to the Chief Executive Officers of the parties affected thereby. Should they be unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days following such referral to them, or within such other time as they may agree, the parties affected thereby will then attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute by mediation in accordance with the then-existing CPR Mediation Procedure promulgated by the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution, New York City. If such mediation is unsuccessful within 60 days after commencement thereof, any party to the dispute may pursue any other remedies available to it.

SECTION 6.07 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (i) the Court of Chancery in and for the State of Delaware and the Superior Court in and for the State of Delaware and (ii) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, the Tax Allocation Agreement or the Science Center Tax Allocation Agreement or any transaction contemplated thereby or the breach, performance, enforcement or validity or invalidity of any thereof (and agrees not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in such courts). Each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document hand delivered or sent by U.S. registered mail to such party's respective address set forth in
Section 6.05 will be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Each of Rockwell, Rockwell Collins and Rockwell Science Center irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, the Tax Allocation Agreement or the Science Center Tax Allocation Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or the breach, performance, enforcement or validity or invalidity of any thereof in (i) the Court of Chancery in and for the State of Delaware and the Superior Court in and for the State of Delaware or
(ii) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party agrees that a final judgment in any action, suit or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment in any jurisdiction or in any other manner provided in law or in equity.

80

SECTION 6.08 Amendments. This Agreement cannot be amended, modified or supplemented except by a written agreement executed by each party affected thereby.

SECTION 6.09 Assignment. No party to this Agreement will convey, assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties affected thereby in their sole and absolute discretion, except that, other than as expressly provided herein, any party may (without obtaining any consent) assign any of its rights hereunder to a successor to all or any part of its business. Any such conveyance, assignment or transfer requiring the prior written consent of the other parties which is made without such consent will be void ab initio. No assignment of this Agreement will relieve the assigning party of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 6.10 Captions; Currency. The article, section and paragraph captions herein and the table of contents hereto are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and will not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to numbered articles or sections are to articles and sections of this Agreement and all references herein to annexes or schedules are to annexes and schedules to this Agreement. Unless otherwise specified, all references contained in this Agreement, in any annex or schedule referred to herein or in any instrument or document delivered pursuant hereto to dollars or "$" shall mean United States Dollars.

SECTION 6.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. If the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is affected in any manner adverse to any party as a result thereof, the parties affected thereby will negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

(ii) Rockwell shall cause RIL (U.K.) and REC (U.K.) to satisfy any Rockwell Collins (U.K.) Scheme Deficiency Debt within 20 business days after receipt of the Rockwell Collins (U.K.) Scheme Debt Certificate.

(iii) In the event that, following the actuarial valuation described in
Section 3.04(c)(i), no Rockwell Collins (U.K.) Scheme Deficiency Debt is identified and no Rockwell Collins (U.K.) Scheme Debt Certificate is required, Rockwell Collins shall use all reasonable endeavours to procure that the trustees of the Rockwell Collins (U.K.) Scheme shall resolve that no debt would be treated as becoming due from RIL (U.K.) or REC (U.K.) under section 75 of the U.K. Pensions Act 1995.

3.04 PAYMENTS.

(a) TIMING ADJUSTMENTS. (i) Timing Differences. If a Tax audit proceeding or an amendment of a Tax Return results in a Timing Difference, and such Timing Difference results in a decrease in an indemnity obligation Rockwell has or would otherwise have under Section 3.01(a) and/or an increase in the amount of a Tax refund or credit to which Rockwell is entitled under Section 2.03, then in each Post-Tax Indemnification Period in which the Rockwell Collins Tax Group Actually Realizes an Income Tax Detriment, Rockwell shall pay to Rockwell Collins an amount equal to such Income Tax Detriment; provided, however, that the aggregate payments which Rockwell shall be required to make under this Section 3.04(a)(i) with respect to any Timing Difference shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Income Tax Benefits realized by the Rockwell Tax Group for all taxable periods and

19

the Rockwell Collins Tax Group for all Tax Indemnification Periods as a result of such Timing Difference. Rockwell shall make all such payments within ten days after Rockwell Collins notifies Rockwell that the relevant Income Tax Detriment has been Actually Realized.

(ii) Reverse Timing Differences. If a Tax audit proceeding or an amendment to a Tax Return results in a Reverse Timing Difference, and such Reverse Timing Difference results in an increase in an indemnity payment obligation of Rockwell under Section 3.01 and/or a decrease in the amount of a Tax refund or credit to which Rockwell is or would otherwise be entitled under
Section 2.03, then in each Post-Tax Indemnification Period in which the Rockwell Collins Tax Group Actually Realizes an Income Tax Benefit, Rockwell Collins shall pay to Rockwell within ten days after Rockwell Collins has Actually Realized such Income Tax Benefit an amount equal to such Income Tax Benefit, provided, however, that the aggregate payments which Rockwell Collins shall be required to make under this Section 3.04(a)(ii) with respect to Reverse Timing Differences shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Income Tax Detriments realized by the Rockwell Collins Tax Group and the Rockwell Tax Group for all Tax Indemnification Periods as a result of such Reverse Timing Difference.

(b) TIME FOR PAYMENT. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 3.04(b), any indemnity payment required to be made pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid within thirty days after the indemnified party makes written demand upon the indemnifying party, provided that in no event shall such payment be required to be made earlier than five business days prior to the date on which the relevant Taxes (including estimated Taxes) are required to be paid (or would be required to be paid if no such Taxes are due) to the relevant Tax Authority. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, to simplify the administration of this Agreement, the payment of any amount less than $100,000 required to be made pursuant to this Agreement by one party hereto to another party hereto need not be made to such other party prior to thirty days following the later of (i) the close of the calendar quarter during which such payment obligation arose and (ii) the day during such calendar quarter when the aggregate amount of all such less than $100,000 payment obligations arising during such calendar quarter exceeds $500,000. Unless otherwise specified by the recipient for items exceeding $250,000, any such payment may be made on a net Tax basis (i.e., reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit to be realized by the recipient (computed at the effective Tax rate set forth in Section 3.04(c)) to the extent such recipient is entitled to a corresponding deduction.

(c) PAYMENTS NET OF TAXES AND TAX BENEFITS. The amount of any payment under this Agreement shall be (i) reduced to take into account any net Tax benefit realized by the recipient's Tax Group arising from the incurrence or payment

20

by such recipient's Tax Group of any amount in respect of which such payment is made and (ii) increased to take into account any net Tax cost incurred by the recipient's Tax Group as a result of the receipt or accrual of payments hereunder (grossed-up for such increase), in each case determined by treating the recipient as recognizing all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of accrual of any payment hereunder. In determining the amount of any such Tax benefit or Tax cost, the recipient's Tax Group shall be deemed to be subject to (A) U.S. federal Income Taxes and foreign Income Taxes at the maximum statutory rate then in effect and (B) U.S. state and local Income Taxes at an assumed rate of five percent (tax effected at such maximum statutory U.S. federal Income Tax rate). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or unless the parties otherwise agree to an alternative method for determining the present value of any such anticipated Tax benefit or Tax cost, any payment hereunder shall initially be made without regard to this section and shall be increased or reduced to reflect any such net Tax cost (including gross-up) or net Tax benefit only after the recipient's Tax Group has Actually Realized such Tax cost or Tax benefit.

(d) RIGHT TO OFFSET. Any party making a payment under this Agreement shall have the right to reduce any such payment by any undisputed amounts owed to it by the other party to this Agreement.

(e) CHARACTERIZATION OF PAYMENTS. It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that payments made pursuant to this Agreement are to be treated as relating back to the Distribution as an adjustment to capital (i.e., capital contribution or return of capital), and the parties shall not take any position inconsistent with such intention before any Tax Authority, except to the extent that a final determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to the recipient party causes any such payment not to be so treated.

3.05 TAX CONTESTS. The Indemnitor and its representatives, at the Indemnitor's expense, shall be entitled to participate (a) in all conferences, meetings and proceedings with any Tax Authority, the subject matter of which is or includes an Indemnity Issue and (b) in all appearances before any court, the subject matter of which is or includes an Indemnity Issue. The party who has responsibility for filing the Tax Return under this Agreement (the "RESPONSIBLE PARTY") with respect to which there could be an increase in liability for any Tax or with respect to which a payment could be required hereunder shall have the right to decide as between the parties hereto how such matter is to be dealt with and finally resolved with the appropriate Tax Authority and shall control all audits and similar proceedings. If no Tax Return is or was required to be filed in respect of an Indemnity Issue, the Indemnitor shall be treated as the Responsible Party with respect thereto. The

21

Responsible Party agrees to cooperate in the settlement of any Indemnity Issue with the other party and to take such other party's interests into account. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Rockwell has materially satisfied its obligations under this Agreement and if Rockwell Collins fails to permit Rockwell to control any audit or proceeding regarding any Indemnity Issue relating to (i) the qualification of the Distribution as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code or as tax-free to Rockwell under Section 361(c) of the Code, (ii) the qualification of any transactions undertaken pursuant to the Transaction Agreements or described in the Ruling Request as transactions described in Section 355 of the Code, "reorganizations" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code or as otherwise tax-free transactions, (iii) the qualification of any transactions undertaken pursuant to the Automotive Transaction Agreements or described in the Automotive Ruling Request as transactions described in Section 355 of the Code, "reorganizations" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code or as otherwise tax-free transactions, or (iv) the qualification of any transactions undertaken pursuant to the Semiconductor Transaction Agreements or described in the Semiconductor Ruling Request as transactions described in Section 355 of the Code, "reorganizations" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code or as otherwise tax-free transactions, then Rockwell shall not be liable for and shall not indemnify the Rockwell Collins Tax Group for any Tax deficiency resulting from an adverse determination of such Indemnity Issue.

22

Rockwell corporate employees who become employees of the Rockwell Tax Group in connection with the Distribution) will remain Rockwell Common Stock Options; and

(iii) Rockwell Common Stock Options held by persons who, immediately after the Distribution are (A) active employees of Rockwell Scientific Company, LLC or active employees of any divested Rockwell business, (B) former Rockwell corporate employees (including those who become employees of the Rockwell Collins Tax Group or the Rockwell Tax Group in connection with the Distribution), (C) former employees of any business of Rockwell, including former employees of the Rockwell Tax Group, the Rockwell Tax Group, Rockwell Scientific Company, LLC or any divested Rockwell business, or (D) active or former outside directors of Rockwell, will be adjusted so that following the Distribution each such holder will hold Rockwell Common Stock Options and Rockwell Collins Common Stock Options.
