FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE UNITED TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To United Technologies Corporation
and Participants of the United Technologies
Corporation Employee Savings Plan
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
with fund information and the related statement of changes in net assets
available for benefits with fund information present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the United Technologies
Corporation Employee Savings Plan at November 30, 1995 and 1994, and the changes
in net assets available for benefits for the year ended November 30, 1995, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

UNITED TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The United Technologies Corporation Employee Savings Plan (the Plan) is a
defined contribution savings plan sponsored by United Technologies Corporation
(UTC). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Generally, non-represented employees in
participating business units of UTC are eligible to participate in the Plan
after completing one year of service. Below is a brief description of the Plan.
More complete information is provided in the plan document which is available
from UTC.
Participants may elect to contribute, through payroll deductions, between 2 and
16 percent of their total compensation. Under the Internal Revenue Code,
participants whose annual earnings totaled no more than $66,000 could have
elected to have tax-deferred contributions made on their behalf of up to 16
percent during the 1995 plan year (subject to Internal Revenue Code
limitations). This threshold, which is adjusted regularly for inflation,
remained at $66,000 for the 1996 plan year. Participants whose earnings
exceeded that amount could have elected to have tax-deferred contributions in
amounts up to 7 percent of compensation subject to Internal Revenue Code non-
discrimination tests and other limitations. Participant contributions are fully
vested at all times under the Plan.
UTC has established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP Fund) to fund the
employer matching contributions to the Plan. The ESOP Fund is primarily invested
in UTC Series A ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock. UTC will match 60 percent of
a participant's contributions, up to specified limits, in ESOP Preferred Stock
(See Note 6). Generally, participants may not direct the employer matching
contributions to an investment fund other than the ESOP Fund. Participants who
have reached at least age 55 and have completed at least 10 years of continuous
service may direct up to 50 percent, in multiples of 25 percent, of their ESOP
Fund account balances and future employer contributions to be invested in the
other investment funds offered through the Plan. Generally, employer
contributions become fully vested after two years of Plan participation.
All participant contributions are credited to a participant account maintained
by UTC. Contributions are invested, pursuant to each participant's direction,
in one or more of the following funds: the Income Fund, the Equity Fund, the
UTC Stock Fund, and the Global Fund. Participants may elect to have 100 percent
of their contributions invested in one investment fund or may allocate the
contributions in any whole percentage (effective January 1, 1994) among the
funds. Prior to January 1, 1994, allocations were made in multiples of 25
percent. Participants are permitted to transfer their accounts between
investment funds once per quarter in any whole percentage (effective January 1,
1994). Prior to January 1, 1994, transfers between investment funds were
generally performed in multiples of 10 percent.
The Income Fund is invested in contracts issued by five insurance companies.
Under these contracts, each insurance company guarantees repayment in full of
the principal amount invested plus interest credited at a fixed rate for a
specified period. Interest is credited to each contract based on an annual
interest rate set each year by the individual insurance companies. This rate,
which differs among contracts, takes into account any difference between prior
year credited interest and the actual amount of investment earnings allocable to
the contract in accordance with the established allocation procedures of the
insurance company. The weighted average rate set for the 1995 calendar year was
7.25 percent.
The Equity Fund may be invested in common or capital stocks of corporations,
bonds or securities convertible into such stocks, or shares of any federally
registered mutual fund or similar type of investment fund, including investment
in any commingled trust fund managed by Bankers Trust Company (BT), the Trustee,
which is invested primarily in similar types of equity securities. During 1995
and 1994, the Equity Fund was invested principally in the BT Pyramid Equity
Index Fund, which is a portfolio of common stocks replicating the Standard &
Poor's Composite Index of 500 stocks. Interest and dividends earned by the
Equity Fund are reinvested and increase market value.
The UTC Stock Fund consists principally of 1,966,242 and 1,988,738 shares of
Common Stock of UTC at November 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The Global Fund is invested in almost equal proportions in three different funds
managed by the Trustee: the BT Pyramid International Securities Index Fund, the
BT Pyramid Fixed Income Index Fund and the BT Pyramid Equity Index Fund (as
described above). The BT Pyramid International Securities Index Fund invests in
four other international index funds managed by the Trustee. The BT Pyramid
Fixed Income Index Fund invests primarily in obligations of the U.S. Government
and its agencies and other publicly traded, high-grade domestic debt
instruments. Interest and dividends earned by these investments are reinvested
and increase market value.
Participants with at least two years of plan participation are allowed to borrow
up to 50 percent of their account balances (excluding the ESOP Fund). Loan
amounts can range from $1,000 to $50,000 and must be repaid in 5 years or less
with interest.
Forfeitures of employer contributions are used to reduce employer contributions;
earned but unapplied forfeitures will be applied against future employer
contributions and are shown separately in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets
Available for Benefits With Fund Information.
Participants who transfer to a new location of UTC which is covered by a
different savings plan have the option of transferring their account balances in
accordance with the provisions of the new savings plan, including available
investment funds.
The number of participants in the Plan at year end were as follows:
November 30,
1995 1994
Income Fund 45,580 47,776
Equity Fund 19,716 18,625
UTC Stock Fund 11,191 10,673
Global Fund 7,785 7,235
ESOP Fund 40,944 41,998
The participants above may have investments in more than one of the investment
funds.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
UTC has entered into a master trust agreement with the Trustee. Under this
agreement, certain employee savings plans of UTC and its subsidiaries combine
their trust fund investments in the Master Trust. Participating plans purchase
units of participation in the investment funds based on their monthly
contribution to such funds and the unit value of the applicable investment fund
at the end of the month. The value of a unit in each fund is determined at the
end of each month by dividing the sum of uninvested cash, accrued income and the
current market value of investments by the total number of outstanding units in
such funds. The plans receive income from the funds' investments which increase
the unit values. Distributions to participants reduce the number of
participation units held by the plans.
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of
accounting. Benefits are recorded when paid.
The investments of the Income Fund are valued at cost plus accrued interest.
The investments of the Equity Fund, the UTC Stock Fund, and the Global Fund are
valued at market as determined by the Trustee by reference to published market
data. The ESOP Preferred Stock is valued at its fair value, which is the higher
of the guaranteed value ($65) or the market value of UTC's Common Stock (See
Note 6).
The expenses of operating the Plan are payable out of the funds held under the
Plan, unless the employer elects to pay such expenses. The expenses for the
1995 plan year were paid by the employer.
The Plan is not subject to federal income tax as the Plan and its related trust
are considered by UTC to satisfy the qualification and exemption requirements of
Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. UTC has received a
favorable determination letter (dated November 3, 1990) from the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS) indicating that the ESOP portion of the Plan qualifies
under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code. UTC has applied for a new
determination letter from the IRS indicating that the other provisions of the
Plan, as amended since the date of the most recent IRS letter applicable to such
provisions (1986), continue to be tax exempt under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of
the Code. Under these sections, contributions by UTC, participants (at their
election) and related earnings will be tax deferred until such amounts are
distributed. It is expected, given the lack of substantive plan amendments,
that a favorable determination will be issued from the IRS, and accordingly, no
provision is made for federal income taxes.

NOTE 4 - GAIN ON SALE OF INVESTMENTS
The Trustee uses the average cost method in determining the cost of securities
for purposes of calculating the gain or loss on the sale of securities. Gains
and losses of the Master Trust funds are allocated to the participating plans
based upon participation units at the month-end valuation date following the
sale. The gains recognized by the Master Trust funds and amounts allocable to
the Plan, for the Plan year ended November 30, 1995, are as follows:
(Thousands of Dollars) UTC
Equity Fund Stock Fund Global Fund
Proceeds from sale of securities $ 37,210 $ 71,256 $ 30,878

Loan Fund 331 331,000 2,158 2,158,000
These amounts are reflected as liabilities in the Plan's Form 5500.
NOTE 6 - EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
In conjunction with the establishment of the ESOP, as discussed above, UTC's
Board of Directors authorized 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value
$1.00 per share designated as Series A ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock, having
an annual dividend of $4.80 per share. Each share of ESOP Preferred Stock is
convertible into one share of UTC's Common Stock. On June 30, 1989, the Trustee
acquired 10,153,847 shares of this new series of ESOP Preferred Stock at an
acquisition price of $65.00 per share and placed them in the Master Trust for
future allocation to participants. On March 30, 1990, the Trustee acquired an
additional 2,900,000 shares of this new series of ESOP Preferred Stock at an
acquisition price of $69.77 per share and placed them in the Master Trust for
future allocation to participants. On February 9, 1994, the Trustee acquired an
additional 1,400,000 shares of ESOP Preferred Stock at an acquisition price of
$70.22 per share and placed them in the Master Trust for future allocation to
participants. The ESOP financed the purchase of these shares with interest
bearing promissory notes. UTC is required to contribute sufficient funds each
year which, when combined with quarterly dividends on the ESOP Preferred Stock,
will meet the ESOP's debt service requirements.
Participants in the ESOP Fund accrue, on a monthly basis, a beneficial interest
equal to the employer contributions at the rate of 60 percent of the
participants' participating contributions. This beneficial interest is
represented by share equivalents of ESOP Preferred Stock, as calculated monthly
at the higher of the month end price of UTC Common Stock or the $65.00 per share
ESOP Preferred Stock guaranteed value. ESOP Preferred Stock dividends, at the
annual rate of $4.80 per share, are attributed to these ESOP Preferred Stock
share equivalents based on participants' beneficial interests in such shares
held as of the record dates which are coincident with the payment dates. Shares
of ESOP Preferred Stock must be allocated to participants' accounts by the
Trustee at least once per Plan year, but are generally allocated over the course
of the plan year.
Purchased shares of ESOP Preferred Stock are held by the Trustee with the number
of purchased shares allocated to each participant determined annually in
accordance with a method approved by the Internal Revenue Service. To the
extent that allocated shares are not sufficient to meet the matching requirement
of the Plan, UTC is required to contribute additional ESOP Preferred Stock, UTC
Common Stock or cash.
Shares allocated to participants generally may not be distributed until the
participant's termination, disability, retirement or death. Upon distribution,
shares of ESOP Preferred Stock must be converted into one share of UTC's Common
Stock or, if the value of the Common Stock is less than the guaranteed value,
the Trustee may require UTC to repurchase the ESOP Preferred Stock for the
guaranteed value.
The Trustee accounts for participants' beneficial interests in the ESOP Fund
based upon units of participation and related unit value (see Note 2).
The ESOP Preferred Stock is redeemable, in whole or in part, generally at the
option of UTC at a redemption price of $66.92 per share plus accrued and unpaid
dividends. The redemption price decreases annually until it reaches $65.00.
However, upon notice to the Trustee of UTC's intention to redeem, the Trustee
may elect to convert each ESOP preferred share into one share of UTC Common
Stock if the value of UTC's Common Stock exceeds the redemption price.
Participants were credited with employer matching contributions representing
approximately 690,000 shares for the Plan year ended November 30, 1995, with a
market value of approximately $52.5 million. In addition, participants earned
dividends of approximately $27.0 million during the 1995 Plan year on the
allocated shares, representing approximately 333,000 shares. The difference of
approximately $15.0 million between the total value of shares earned by
participants, including dividends, and the total of employer contributions on
the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits With Fund
Information is due to UTC contributions in excess of debt service requirements.
The ESOP Fund's investment in ESOP Preferred Stock at year end is as follows:
(Thousands of Dollars, November 30, 1995 November 30, 1994
except share amounts) Allocated Total Allocated Total
Number of Shares 5,916,548 13,419,914 5,100,671 13,646,850

Market $ 554,676 $ 1,258,117 $ 331,544 $ 887,045
/TABLE
As discussed above, market is represented by the higher of the guaranteed value
of $65 per share or the month end price of UTC's Common Stock. As such, the
market value of the ESOP Preferred Stock was $93.75 and $65.00 at November 30,
1995 and 1994, respectively. Further, the Net Assets Available for Benefits in
the ESOP Fund at November 30, 1995 includes unrealized appreciation of
approximately $385.8 million of which $215.7 million is on unallocated shares.
There was no unrealized appreciation included in the Net Assets Available for
Benefits in the ESOP Fund at November 30, 1994.
NOTE 7 - ESOP DEBT
On February 1, 1990, the Master Trust with UTC as guarantor executed a Note and
Guaranty Agreement to issue $660,000,000 of Series A, B, C and D notes
(described below) representing the ESOP's permanent financing. Interest is
payable quarterly on the 10th of March, June, September and December coincident
with the dividend payment date on the ESOP Preferred Stock. Principal payments
are payable annually on the 10th of December. The amounts outstanding under the
Agreement at November 30, 1995 are as follows:
Principal Rate of
Note Series (000's) Interest Due
A $ 180,900 7.24% 1995 - 1999
B 286,600 7.68% 2000 - 2008
C 17,300 7.68% 2008
D 32,700 7.68% 2009
$ 517,500
Required payments on these Notes, in aggregate, for the next five plan years are
$35.9 million in 1995 (short year - see Note 12), $36.3 million in 1996, $36.4
