ROLLE, Switzerland, September 1, 2010 - Honeywell's (NYSE: HON) Alex Ismail, President and CEO of Honeywell

Automotive News Europe recognized Mr. Ismail for "not panicking when the
global economic crisis started to hit his division's top product -
turbochargers," noting that he remained confident in "the technology it was
developing, the improvements it had made to its production processes, and its
global reach."
"I'm honored to receive this recognition on behalf of all of our
Honeywell employees around the world. By staying true to our fundamental
commitment to innovation and customer service throughout the downturn and
through the recent recovery, we have enhanced our reputation as the top turbo
maker in the world," said Ismail. "Turbocharging is a technology whose time
has come - the industry has recognized that it is a core enabling technology
to meet stringent emissions regulations and increased fuel-efficiency
standards."
