  2. the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q of the Corporation filed with the Commission for the quarters ended March 31, 2002, June 30, 2002 and September 30, 2002;

All documents filed by the Corporation pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of this Registration Statement, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The securities registered hereby are shares of Common Stock, $5.00 par value, of the Corporation, to be issued under the United Technologies Corporation Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

The legality of the securities offered pursuant to this Registration Statement has been passed on by Richard M. Kaplan, Esq. Mr. Kaplan, Associate General Counsel of the Corporation, is a shareowner of Common Stock.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The financial statements incorporated by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2001 have been so incorporated in reliance on the reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent auditors, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.

With respect to the unaudited financial information of United Technologies Corporation for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, incorporated by reference in this Form S-8, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP reported that they have applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards for a review of such information.  However, their separate reports dated April 17, 2002, July 17, 2002 and October 17, 2002 incorporated by reference, state that they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on such unaudited financial information.  Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their reports on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. 

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for their reports on the unaudited financial information because such reports are not a "report" or a "part" of the registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Act.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Pursuant to Section 102 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, the Corporation has adopted a provision in its Certificate of Incorporation eliminating the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages to the Corporation and its stockholders for any breach of their fiduciary duties as directors of the Corporation, except for their liability due to (1) breach of loyalty to the Corporation, (2) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit or (4) any payment of unlawful dividends or an unlawful stock repurchase or redemption.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who is or was a party to any actual or threatened legal action, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative because of his or her service as an officer, director or agent of the corporation against expenses, judgments, fines and settlement payments reasonably and actually incurred by him or her in connection with such proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe was unlawful, except that, with respect to any legal action by or in the right of the corporation itself, an officer, director or agent of the corporation only is entitled to indemnification for expenses actually and reasonably incurred. Section 7.5 of the Corporation’s Bylaws provides that the Corporation shall indemnify its officers, directors, employees, fiduciaries and agents (and their heirs and legal representatives) to the full extent permitted by Delaware law.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

See Exhibit Index

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

  1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

    (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

    (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and

    (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement:

Provided, however, that paragraphs 1(i) and 1(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

  1. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
  2. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer of controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8, and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Hartford, and State of Connecticut, on this 24th day of October, 2002.
