All documents that we subsequently file under Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 prior to filing a post-effective amendment that indicates all securities offered have been sold or that deregisters all securities that have not been sold shall be deemed incorporated by reference in the registration statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. Vincent A. Maffeo, Esq., Senior Vice President and General Counsel of ITT Industries, has given his opinion on the legality of the common stock and the preferred stock purchase rights offered pursuant to this registration statement. As of May 9, 2003, Mr. Maffeo owned 174,345 shares of ITT Industries common stock, including shares that may be acquired within 60 days pursuant to the exercise of stock options. Mr. Maffeo is acquiring additional shares of ITT Industries common stock at regular intervals through employee stock plans. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Sections 23-1-37-8 and 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 II-1 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. Sections 23-1-37-9 and 23-1-37-13 of the IBCL 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 proceeding. The Company's Articles of Incorporation do not limit the indemnification provided by the IBCL. 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 an indemnification agreement with each of its outside directors. Under its form of indemnification agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify such 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).

II-2 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective 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 registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3 and 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 Securities and Exchange 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. (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. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (4) 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-3 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 provisions described under Item 6 above, 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 the 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.

STOLAR, and each of them, his or her true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for him or her and in his or her name, place and stead, in any and all such capacities, to sign any and all amendments to this registration statement, and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto, and other documents in connection therewith, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, granting unto said attorneys-in-fact and agents, and each of them, full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in and about the premises, as fully and to all intents and purposes as he or she might or could do in person, hereby ratifying and confirming all that said attorneys-in-fact and agents, or any of them, or their or his or her substitute or substitutes, may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
