Context

• These grants are compensation awards under Honeywell’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (typical for executives) and are not open-market purchases or sales.
• RSUs will convert to common shares when they vest (one-for-one); options vest on a longer schedule (2030). Such awards are routine components of executive pay and do not by themselves indicate a buy/sell decision in the market.
