ABOUT OTIS WORLDWIDE CORPORATION

Otis Worldwide Corporation (“Otis”) is the world’s leading elevator and escalator manufacturing, installation and service company. Our operations are organized into two segments: New Equipment and Service. The New Equipment segment designs, manufactures, sells and installs a wide range of passenger and freight elevators, as well as escalators and moving walkways for residential, commercial and infrastructure projects. The Service segment provides maintenance and repair services, as well as modernization services to upgrade elevators and escalators.

Otis (New York Stock Exchange: OTIS) is a Delaware corporation and was incorporated on March 1, 2019 in connection with the separation and distribution (“Separation”) of each of Otis and Carrier Global Corporation (“Carrier”) from United Technologies Corporation, subsequently renamed Raytheon Technologies Corporation (“UTC” or “RTX”, as applicable) into separate independent publicly-traded companies. On April 3, 2020, Otis became an independent publicly-traded company through a pro-rata distribution of 0.5 shares of Common Stock for every share of UTC common stock held at the close of business on the record date of March 19, 2020 (the “Distribution”).

The Registrant’s principal executive offices are located at One Carrier Place, Farmington, Connecticut 06032, and its telephone number at that location is (860) 674-3000.

The Registrant files annual, quarterly, and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

This prospectus and other materials Otis has filed or will file with the SEC contain or incorporate by reference statements which, to the extent they are not statements of historical or present fact, constitute “forward-looking statements” under the securities laws. From time to time, oral or written forward-looking statements may also be included in other information released to the public. These forward-looking statements are intended to provide management’s current expectations or plans for Otis’ future operating and financial performance, based on assumptions currently believed to be valid. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “expectations,” “plans,” “strategy,” “prospects,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “anticipate,” “will,” “should,” “see,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “medium-term,” “near-term,” “confident,” “goals” and other words of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. Forward-looking statements may include, among other things, statements relating to future sales, earnings, cash flow, results of operations, uses of cash, dividends, share repurchases, tax rates, R&D spend, credit ratings, net indebtedness and other measures of financial performance or potential future plans, strategies or transactions, or statements that relate to climate change and our intent to achieve certain ESG targets or goals, including operational impacts and costs associated therewith, and other statements that are not historical facts. All forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. For those statements, Otis claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, without limitation:

• the effect of economic conditions in the industries and markets in which Otis and its businesses operate in the U.S. and globally and any changes therein, including financial market conditions, fluctuations in commodity prices and other inflationary pressures, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, levels of end market demand in construction, pandemic health issues (including COVID-19 and variants thereof and the ongoing economic recovery therefrom and their effects on, among other things, global supply, demand and distribution), natural disasters (whether as a result of climate change or otherwise) and the financial condition of Otis’ customers and suppliers;

• the effect of changes in political conditions in the U.S. and other countries in which Otis and its businesses operate, including the effects of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions and export controls, on general market conditions, commodity costs, global trade policies, currency exchange rates and stakeholder perception in the near term and beyond;

• challenges in the development, production, delivery, support, performance and realization of the anticipated benefits of advanced technologies and new products and services;

• future levels of indebtedness, capital spending and research and development spending;

• future availability of credit and factors that may affect such availability, including credit market conditions and our capital structure;

• the timing and scope of future repurchases of Otis’ common stock, which may be suspended at any time due to various factors, including market conditions and the level of other investing activities and uses of cash;

• fluctuations in prices and delays and disruption in delivery of materials and services from suppliers, whether as a result of COVID-19, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine or otherwise;

• cost reduction or containment actions, restructuring costs and related savings and other consequences thereof;

• new business and investment opportunities;

• the outcome of legal proceedings, investigations and other contingencies;

• pension plan assumptions and future contributions;

• the impact of the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements and labor disputes and labor inflation in the markets in which Otis and its businesses operate globally;

3

• the effect of changes in tax, environmental, regulatory (including among other things import/export) and other laws and regulations in the U.S. and other countries in which Otis and its businesses operate, including as a result of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine;

• the ability of Otis to retain and hire key personnel;

• the scope, nature, impact or timing of acquisition and divestiture activity, the integration of acquired businesses into existing businesses and realization of synergies and opportunities for growth and innovation and incurrence of related costs;

• the determination by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities that the Distribution or certain related transactions in connection with the Separation should be treated as taxable transactions; and

• our obligations and disputes that have or may hereafter arise under the agreements we entered into with RTX and Carrier in connection with the Separation.

The above list of factors is not exhaustive or necessarily in order of importance. For additional information on identifying factors that may cause actual results to vary materially from those stated in forward-looking statements, see the discussions under “Risk Factors.” Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and Otis assumes no obligation to update or revise such statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Additional information as to factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements is disclosed from time to time in Otis’ other filings with the SEC.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the offered securities involves risks. Before deciding to invest in our securities, you should carefully consider any specific risks set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in the applicable prospectus supplement, under the caption “Risk Factors” included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and under the caption “Risk Factors” in any of the Registrant’s subsequent annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q incorporated by reference in this prospectus, before making an investment decision. For more information, see “Where You Can Find More Information.” The Registrant cannot assure you of a profit or protect you against a loss on the shares of common stock that you acquire under the Plan.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Any proceeds that the Registrant receives from the exercise of stock options issued under the Plan will be used for general corporate purposes. These proceeds represent the exercise prices for the stock options issued under the Plan.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

In connection with the Separation and Distribution, outstanding awards granted under UTC’s equity compensation programs were converted into adjusted awards composed of UTC common shares and/or the Registrant’s common stock and/or the common stock of Carrier Global Corporation (“Carrier”), as described under the heading “Description of Award Adjustments.” The portion of each adjusted UTC award that was based on the Registrant’s common stock was granted by the Registrant under the Plan, in accordance with the terms of the employee matters agreement that the Registrant entered into with UTC and Carrier in connection with the Separation and Distribution (the “Employee Matters Agreement”). The registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part only covers awards that were granted under the Plan to former employees of UTC and its subsidiaries who did not become employees of the Registrant at the time of the Distribution, and any such individuals’ donees, pledgees, permitted transferees, assignees, successors and others who come to hold any such awards. The registration statement does not cover any shares of the Registrant’s common stock issued pursuant to the awards that were granted to any individual who, upon completion of the Distribution, was employed by or served on the board of directors of UTC, the Registrant or Carrier or any other awards that the Registrant has granted under the Plan after the Distribution or may grant under the Plan in the future.

5

DESCRIPTION OF AWARD ADJUSTMENTS

UTC equity-based compensation awards outstanding as of the date of the Separation and Distribution were adjusted as described below.

Vested Stock Appreciation Right Awards

As of the Separation and Distribution date, each outstanding and vested UTC stock appreciation right (“SAR”) award was converted into a SAR award relating to shares of UTC common stock, a SAR award relating to shares of Carrier common stock, and a SAR award relating to shares of Otis common stock. The number of shares subject to each SAR award and the exercise price of each SAR award were adjusted in a manner intended to preserve the aggregate intrinsic value of the original UTC SAR award immediately after the Separation and Distribution when compared to the aggregate intrinsic value immediately prior to the Separation and Distribution (in each case, as calculated based on the applicable stock price measurements specified in the Employee Matters Agreement), subject to rounding. Each adjusted SAR award is subject to the same terms, post-termination exercise rules and other restrictions that applied to the original UTC SAR award immediately before the Separation and Distribution.

Vested Stock Option Awards

As of the Separation and Distribution date, each outstanding and vested UTC stock option award was converted into a stock option award denominated in shares of UTC common stock, a stock option award denominated in shares of Carrier common stock and a stock option award denominated in shares of Otis common stock. The number of shares subject to each option award and the exercise price of each option award were adjusted in a manner intended to preserve the aggregate intrinsic value of the original UTC stock option award immediately after the Separation and Distribution when compared to the aggregate intrinsic value immediately prior to the Separation and Distribution (in each case, as calculated based on the applicable stock price measurements specified in the Employee Matters Agreement), subject to rounding. Each adjusted stock option award is subject to the same terms, post-termination exercise rules and other restrictions that applied to the original UTC stock option award immediately before the Separation and Distribution.

LEGAL MATTERS

Joshua Mullin, Esq., Vice President, Associate General Counsel & Assistant Secretary of the Registrant will pass upon the validity of the common stock on behalf of the Registrant.

EXPERTS

Please see the registration fee table contained in Exhibit 107.1 to this prospectus for more information.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 5.1 of the Registrant’s amended and restated bylaws requires the Registrant to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted from time to time under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), each person who is made or threatened to be made a party to (or, in the case of directors and officers, otherwise involved in) any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, alternative dispute resolution procedure, legislative hearing or inquiry or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, employee or officer of the Registrant. Such indemnification will cover all expenses, liabilities and losses reasonably incurred by such individuals.

Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person 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 the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person 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 reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

Subsection (b) of Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

II-1

Subsection (d) of Section 145 of the DGCL provides that any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by the majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the shareowners.

Section 145 of the DGCL further provides that to the extent a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith and that such expenses may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in Section 145 of the DGCL; that any indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; that indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators; and empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under Section 145.

As authorized by the Registrant’s amended and restated bylaws, the Registrant may purchase and maintain at its expense on behalf of directors and officers insurance, within certain limits, covering liabilities which may be incurred by them in such capacities.

To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that a director of the Registrant shall not be personally liable to the Registrant or its shareowners for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

Item 17. 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 (the “Securities Act”);

(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 a 20% 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 (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.

II-3

(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.

(4)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(i)
Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(ii)
Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5)
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned Registrant;

(iii)
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant; and

(iv)
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned Registrant to the purchaser.

(6)
That, for purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) 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.

(7)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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

II-4

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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
