Item 2.01.

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On July 26, 2012, the Company completed its previously announced merger (the “Merger”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 21, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among United Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“UTC”), Charlotte Lucas Corporation, a New York corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of UTC (“Merger Sub”), and the Company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of UTC.

The information set forth in Items 3.03 and 5.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.01.

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On July 26, 2012, in connection with completion of the Merger, the Company notified the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) of its intent to remove the Company’s common stock, par value $5.00 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), from listing on the NYSE and requested that the NYSE file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an application on Form 25 to delist and deregister the Company Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). On July 27, 2012, the NYSE filed the Form 25 with the SEC. In addition, on July 26, 2012, the Company filed with the SEC a Form 15 with respect to the Company’s outstanding senior and medium-term notes, requesting that the Company’s reporting obligations under applicable provisions of the Exchange Act with respect to the senior and medium-term notes be suspended. The Company intends to subsequently file with the SEC a Form 15 with respect to the Company Common Stock.

Item 3.03.

Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

At the effective time and as a result of the Merger, each outstanding share of the Company Common Stock (other than each share (i) held in the treasury of the Company, (ii) owned directly by UTC or Merger Sub, or (iii) held by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of UTC or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Merger Sub) was converted into the right to receive $127.50 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), payable to the holder of such share. Each option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled at the effective time in exchange for the right to receive a cash payment equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such option and the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the applicable exercise price of the option. Each outstanding performance share unit was adjusted and converted at the effective time into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock determined under the award agreement for such award. Each outstanding time-vesting restricted share unit was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive a cash payment equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying the restricted share unit. Account balances, whether vested or unvested, under any employee benefit plan that provides for the deferral of compensation and represents amounts notionally invested in a number of shares of Company Common Stock were adjusted and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the number of such notionally invested shares multiplied by the Merger Consideration.

The aggregate consideration paid by UTC in connection with the Merger was approximately $16.5 billion, which consideration UTC funded through (1) cash on hand, (2) debt financing obtained from third party lenders and (3) certain commercial paper issuances and certain registered offerings of senior notes and equity units.
