INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
ITEM 3. INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.
The Company is the successor to ITT Corporation, a Delaware corporation.
The following documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange

reference in this Registration Statement:
(a) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995;
(b) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
1996; and
(c) Form 8-B dated December 20, 1995.
All documents subsequently filed by the Company and the ITT Automotive ESI
Savings Plan for Hourly Employees with the Commission pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 prior to the
filing with the Commission of a post-effective amendment which indicates that
all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then

Registration Statement and to be a part thereof from the date of filing of such
documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded to the
extent that a statement contained in the Registration Statement or in any other
subsequently filed document which also is incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference 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statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified
or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.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.
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
The audited financial statements and schedule incorporated by reference in
the Prospectus and elsewhere in the Registration Statement have been audited by
Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, as indicated in their
report with respect thereto, and is incorporated herein by reference in reliance
upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing in giving
said report.
Robert W. Beicke, Esq., whose legal opinion with respect to the securities
registered hereunder is filed as Exhibit 5 hereto, is an employee of the Company
and participates in certain of its stock benefit plans.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 23-1-37-8 and Section 23-1-37-13 of the Indiana Business
Corporation Law ("IBCL") provide that the Company may indemnify any individual
made a party to a proceeding (including a proceeding by or in the right of the
Company) because the individual is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the Company against liability incurred in the proceeding if the individual
acted in good faith and reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in the
individual's official capacity with the Company, that the individual's conduct
was in the Company's best interests and (ii) in all other cases, that the
individual's conduct was at least not opposed to the Company's best interests.
In the case of any criminal proceeding, the individual must have had either
reasonable cause to believe the conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to
believe that it was unlawful. The Company's By-laws provide for the above
indemnification of directors and officers. Reference is made to the Company's
By-laws filed with the Company's Form 8-B dated December 20, 1995. In addition,
Section 23-1-37-9 and Section 23-1-37-13 provide that the Company, unless
limited by its articles of incorporation, must indemnify a director or officer
who was wholly successful in the defense of any proceeding to which the director
or officer was a party because the director or officer is or was a director or
officer of the Company against reasonable expenses incurred by the director or
officer in connection with the
II-1
3
proceeding. The Company's Articles of Incorporation do not limit the
indemnification provided by the IBCL. Reference is made to the Company's
Articles of Incorporation, as amended, filed with the Company's Form 8-B dated
December 20, 1995.
The Company also has provided liability insurance for the directors and
officers for certain losses arising from claims or charges made against them
while acting in their capacities as directors or officers and has entered into,
or expects to enter into, an indemnification agreement with each of its
directors. Under its form of indemnification agreement, the Company agrees to
indemnify its directors against all expenses, liabilities or losses incurred by
the directors in their capacity as such: (i) to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law; (ii) as provided in the By-laws of the Company as in effect on
the date of such agreement; and (iii) in the event the Company does not maintain
the aforementioned insurance or comparable coverage, to the full extent provided
in the applicable policies as in effect on the date of such agreement (the
Company's obligations described in (ii) and (iii) being subject to certain
exceptions).
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
Not Applicable.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS.
See Exhibit Index elsewhere herein.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) 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 (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement;
(2) 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; and
(3) 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.
(b) 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 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to 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.
II-2

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, 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 a registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or 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.

Dear Sirs:
I am familiar with the ITT Automotive ESI Savings Plan for Hourly Employees
(the "Plan") under which 700,000 shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par
value $1 per share, of ITT Industries, Inc., an Indiana corporation ("ITT
Industries"), have been authorized initially for issuance. I have acted as
counsel to ITT Industries in connection with the preparation and filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act"), of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration
Statement") with respect to the registration under the Act of the Shares and
700,000 Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock Purchase Rights (the
"Rights") which are appurtenant to, and trade with, the Shares. In this
connection, I have examined such records, documents and proceedings as I have
deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinion expressed herein.
Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized for issuance under the Plan by all proper corporate action and,
when such Shares have been issued pursuant to the provisions of the Plan as set
forth in the Registration Statement and ITT Industries' policies relating
thereto, and any conditions or restrictions relating thereto shall have been
satisfied, such Shares will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
When the Rights are issued in accordance with the terms of the Rights Agreement
between ITT Industries and The Bank of New York, as Rights Agent, the Rights
will be duly and validly issued.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ ROBERT W. BEICKE

Counsel
