Merger Severance Plan

In connection with the entry of United Technologies Corporation (the “ Company ” or “ United Technologies ”) into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “ Merger Agreement ”), dated as of June 9, 2019, by and among the Company, Light Merger Sub Corp. (“ Merger Sub ”) and Raytheon Company (“ Raytheon ”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Raytheon (the “ Merger ”), the Company adopted the United Technologies Corporation Merger Severance Plan for Corporate Office Executives and Other Key Employees (the “ Severance Plan ”) to become effective upon, and subject to, the closing (the “ Closing ”) of the Merger, and which would automatically terminate and have no effect in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated.  The eligible participants under the Severance Plan include the named executive officers of the Company, other than Gregory J. Hayes, Chief Executive Officer .  Pursuant to the Severance Plan, an eligible participant who is terminated without cause (as defined in the Severance Plan) or resigns for good reason (as defined in the Severance Plan) on, or within the two years following, the Closing, will be entitled to receive (subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in favor of the Company and agreement to a one-year post-termination noncompetition covenant and a two-year post-termination nonsolicitation covenant):  (1) a lump sum cash severance payment equal to a multiple (which is equal to two, for each participating named executive officer) times the sum of (a) the participant’s annual base salary and (b) the participant’s target annual bonus, (2) a prorated target annual bonus for the year of termination, (3) full vesting of outstanding equity awards (based on the actual level of achievement of the applicable performance goals, if any), and (4) up to 12 months of healthcare benefit coverage continuation at no premium cost to the participant.

The Company will file the Severance Plan with its next periodic report.
