Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On April 28, 2008, a management proposal to amend the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Honeywell International Inc. (“Honeywell”) to give holders of at least twenty-five percent of the outstanding shares of Honeywell’s common stock the right to call a special meeting of shareowners was approved by the shareowners. A corresponding By-law amendment, which also sets forth related procedural requirements, was previously adopted by Honeywell’s Board of Directors and became effective upon shareowner approval of the amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
A copy of Honeywell’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is attached as Exhibit 3(i) and a copy of Honeywell’s By-laws, as amended, is attached as Exhibit 3(ii) to this Report.
