3. Determination of Applicable Earnings and Performance Fund; Allocation of

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(a)
 
After the end of each fiscal year, the independent certified public accountants
who audit the Corporation’s accounts shall compute the Applicable Earnings and
the amount of the Performance Fund for that fiscal year. Those computations
shall be reported to the Board of Directors, the Committee and other committees
as appropriate.
 
 
 
 
 
(b)
 
There shall be allocated from the Performance Fund for each fiscal year
potential awards to each of the Senior Executive Officers equal to the following
respective percentages of the Performance Fund for that fiscal year:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Chief Executive Officer - 25%
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Six Senior Executive Officers - 12.5% each
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The maximum potential award to any one Senior Executive Officer under this Plan
for any fiscal year shall be Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).

4. Awards
 
(a)
 
After the computations and reports prescribed under Section 3(a) have been made,
the Committee shall determine the amounts, if any, allocated to the Senior
Executive Officers pursuant to Section 3(b) to be awarded from the Performance
Fund for that fiscal year. The Committee may determine from time to time the
form, terms and conditions of awards, including whether and to what extent
awards shall be paid in installments.
 
 
 
 
 
(b)
 
Without limiting the generality of Section 4(a), the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, reduce the amount of any award made to any Senior Executive Officer
from the amount allocated under Section 3(b), taking into account such factors
as it deems relevant, including without limitation: (i) the Applicable Earnings;
(ii) other significant financial or strategic achievements during the year;
(iii) its subjective assessment of each Senior Executive Officer’s overall
performance for the year; and (iv) information about compensation practices at
other peer group companies for the purpose of evaluating competitive
compensation levels so that the Committee may determine that the amount of the
annual incentive award is within the targeted competitive compensation range of
the Corporation’s executive compensation program. The Committee shall determine
the amount of any reduction in a Senior Executive Officer’s award on the basis
of the foregoing and other factors it deems relevant and shall not be required
to establish any allocation or weighting formula with respect to the factors it
considers. In no event shall any Senior Executive Officer’s award under the Plan
exceed the amount of the Performance Fund allocated to a potential award to that
Senior Executive Officer.
 
 
 
 
 
(c)
 
The Committee shall have no obligation to disclose the full amount of the
Performance Fund for any fiscal year. Amounts allocated but not actually awarded
to a Senior Executive Officer may not be re-allocated to other Senior Executive
Officers or utilized for awards in respect of other years.
 
 
 
 
 
(d)
 
The Corporation shall promptly notify each person to whom an award has been made
and pay the award in accordance with the determinations of the Committee.
 
 
(e)
 
A cash award may be made with respect to a Senior Executive Officer who has
died. Any such award shall be paid to the legal representative or
representatives of the estate of such Senior Executive Officer.
 
 
 
 
 
(f)
 
No person who is eligible for an award under the Plan for any fiscal year of the
Corporation shall be eligible for an award under any other annual management
incentive compensation plan of any of the Corporation’s businesses for that
fiscal year.
 
 
 
 
 
(g)
 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, except to the
extent that a Senior Executive Officer has elected to defer receipt of his or
her award pursuant to the 2005 DCP pursuant to subclause (h) below, any award
payable under this Plan will be paid no later than March 15th of the calendar
year following the end of the fiscal year to which such award relates.
 
 
 
 
 
(h)
 
Any Senior Executive Officer who is eligible to participate in the 2005 DCP may
elect to defer an award under this Plan subject to and in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the 2005 DCP. It is intended that any such deferral will
only be permitted to the extent that such election to defer payment complies
with Section 409A. Rockwell Collins will provide the Senior Executive Officer
with the appropriate deferral election form pursuant to which the Senior
Executive Officer may make his or her deferral election. Once an employee has
elected to defer payment into the 2005 DCP, the deferred amounts, including the
Senior Executive Officer’s ability to make a change to that deferral election
and his or her right to receive payment of such deferred amounts, will be
subject in all regards to the terms and conditions of the 2005 DCP and the
requirements of Section 409A generally. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Plan to the contrary, the Corporation makes no representation that the Plan
or the 2005 DCP or any amount deferred pursuant to this subclause (h) or the
2005 DCP will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A and makes no
undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to this Plan or the 2005 DCP.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Finality of Determinations
          The Committee shall have the power to administer and interpret the
Plan. All determinations, interpretations and actions of the Committee and all
actions of the Board of Directors under or in connection with the Plan shall be

who, at the time of any proposed award or at the time an award is made, is not
an “outside director” as defined for purposes of Code Section 162(m) shall
abstain from, and take no part in, the Committee’s action on the award.

6. Amendment of the Plan
          The Board of Directors and the Committee shall each have the power, in
its sole discretion, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, except
that:
 
(a)
 
No such action shall adversely affect rights under an award already made,
without the consent of the person affected; and
 
 
 
 
 
(b)
 
Without approval of the shareowners of Rockwell Collins, neither the Board of
Directors nor the Committee shall (1) so modify the method of determining the
Performance Fund as to increase materially the maximum amount that may be
allocated to it or (2) after the first 90 days of any fiscal year, amend the
plan in a manner that would, directly or indirectly: (i) change the method of
calculating the amount allocated to the Performance Fund for that year; (ii)
increase the maximum award payable to any Senior Executive Officer for that
year; or (iii) remove the amendment restriction set forth in this sentence with
respect to that year.
