      November 8, 2007, Ted R. French, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
      Officer of Textron, adopted a pre-arranged stock trading plan to exercise
      Textron stock options and sell the acquired Textron stock. This plan was
      established as part of his individual long-term strategy for asset
      diversification and liquidity. The plan was adopted in accordance with
      guidelines specified under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
      as amended, and Textron&#8217;s policies regarding stock transactions.</font></div>

      the
      plan, Mr.&#160;French may sell up to 135,366 shares of Textron stock over
      approximately seven months beginning in December 2007.&#160;&#160;Shares will be
      sold under the plan on the open market at pre-determined times at prevailing
      market prices, subject to minimum price thresholds.<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;">&#160;</font>The transactions under
      the
      plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings with the

      10b5-1 permits individuals who are not in possession of material, non-public
      information at the time the plan is adopted to establish pre-arranged plans
      to
      buy or sell company stock. Using these plans, individuals can prudently and
      gradually diversify their investment portfolios over an extended period of
      time
      and avoid concerns about transactions occurring at a time when they might
      possess material non-public information.</font></div>
