Stock Options (“Options”)
How Do Options Work?
A stock option is similar to a Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR”) and delivers
equivalent value when exercised.

■ Provides gain equal to the difference in UTC stock price from grant date to
exercise date

■ Vests three years after grant date

■ Expires ten years from the grant date, unless exercised

■ No dividend equivalents

■ At exercise, value is delivered in shares of
UTC Common Stock that can be:
-- Converted to cash, or
-- Held as shares with dividend rights
                

An Example
Number of Options granted
1,000
UTC stock price at grant
 $100 per share
UTC stock price at exercise
 $125 per share
Increase in UTC stock price from grant date to exercise date:
 $125 per share
-$100 per share
= $25 per share
Total gain from Option exercise:
1,000 options
X $25 per share
= $25,000
Conversion into shares of UTC stock:
$25,000
÷$125 per share
= 200 shares
