Each director attended at least 86% of all meetings of the Board and its committees on which the director served. Consistent with Westinghouse's long-standing practice and its by-laws, a majority of the members of the Board are independent as defined under the Corporation's by-laws. At the present time, there are eleven members of the Board. Mr. McPherson will retire from the Board at the annual meeting. The remaining ten directors and Mr. Cawthorn have been nominated to serve as directors. Westinghouse has four standing Board committees: the Audit Review Committee, the Committee on Environment and Health, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Governance Committee. As required by the Corporation's by-laws, all members of the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee are independent as defined under the by-laws. The Compensation Committee consists of at least three Board members, who must also be disinterested persons as defined by Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and outside directors as defined by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code). In addition, all members of the Audit Review Committee and the Committee on Environment and Health are independent. The Audit Review Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities concerning the Corporation's accounting and financial reporting practices and the ethical conduct of the Corporation and its employees. The Committee makes recommendations to the Board regarding the selection, retention or termination of the Corporation's independent auditors, and reviews the professional services, proposed fees and independence of such auditors. The Committee reviews with management and the independent auditors both the controls established to protect the integrity of the quarterly reporting process and the Corporation's annual financial statements. The Committee exercises general oversight of pension and employee benefit plans and programs. Mr. McLaughlin is chair of this Committee, and directors Carlucci, Gray, McPherson, Morrow, Pivirotto and Stern are members. This Committee held three meetings in 1994. The Committee on Environment and Health oversees the Corporation's environment and health policies. The Committee reviews with management the Corporation's policies and plans concerning activities which affect the environment, reviews health and safety issues affecting employees and the general public, and reviews the Corporation's compliance with laws and regulations relating to the environment and health and safety issues. Mr. Morrow is chair of this Committee, and directors Carlucci, Gray, Pivirotto and Stern are members. This Committee held one meeting in 1994. The Compensation Committee assists the Board in the establishment of appropriate compensation and benefits for the Corporation's directors, officers and employees. The Committee's general responsibilities include advising the Board on significant compensation matters, reporting on executive compensation to shareholders as appropriate, evaluating existing executive compensation and benefit programs, and reviewing, evaluating and approving proposed new executive programs. The Committee also reviews and makes recommendations concerning outside director compensation. This Committee administers the Annual Performance Plan and the Corporation's 11 14 long-term incentive plans. This Committee engages an independent compensation consultant as an advisor. Mr. Pivirotto is chair of this Committee, and directors Carlucci, Conrades, McLaughlin, McPherson, and Morrow are members. This Committee held four meetings in 1994. The Nominating and Governance Committee makes recommendations to the Board concerning the recruitment and selection of the chief executive officer and of Board candidates. This Committee is also responsible for assessing the performance of the Board. In addition, the Committee reviews the size and composition of the Board and makes appropriate recommendations. Mr. McPherson is chair of this Committee, and directors Conrades, Gray, McLaughlin and Pivirotto are members. This Committee held four meetings in 1994. With respect to nominees to the Board, any shareholder desiring to recommend a candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Governance Committee should furnish to the Secretary a resume of the experience and qualifications of the proposed nominee, and a written statement signed by the proposed nominee consenting to be nominated to the Board and to serve if elected. Pursuant to the Corporation's by-laws, any shareholder wishing to nominate a candidate at the 1996 Annual Meeting must send a notice to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of Westinghouse on or before January 25, 1996 setting forth the information required by the Corporation's by-laws. A candidate for director should be highly experienced, have knowledge and a background that will be useful to the Corporation and the ability to exercise sound business judgment. The candidate must also be willing and able to commit the time and effort needed to be an effective director. DIRECTOR COMPENSATION A director who is an employee of the Corporation receives no additional compensation for services as a director. Directors who are not employees of the Corporation are paid an annual cash retainer of $22,000. Non-employee directors receive $1,200 for each Board and Committee meeting attended and receive a $2,000 annual fee for serving as a Committee chair. Non-employee directors may also receive a $1,200 per diem fee for special services outside the scope of normal Board and Committee activities. Messrs. Conrades, McPherson and Pivirotto received total per diem fees during 1994 of $1,200, $8,400 and $1,200, respectively, for special services relating to the search for additional qualified candidates for director. Non-employee directors may defer all or a portion of their retainer and fees on terms similar to the terms for deferral of annual and long-term incentive awards described on pages 17 and 18. A director will receive deferred amounts in five annual installments following termination of service as a director. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation, these deferred amounts may be paid as prescribed by the Compensation Committee. Each non-employee director elected at an annual meeting receives 400 common stock equivalents annually that yield dividend equivalents. These common stock and dividend equivalents are held in a deferred stock account, and are paid in Westinghouse common stock in January of the year following the year of termination of service as a director. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation, these stock equivalents will have a value based on the highest price of the Westinghouse common stock during the thirty days preceding such change in control 12 15 and may be paid as the Compensation Committee prescribes. In April 1994, each continuing non-employee director received 400 common stock equivalents and in December 1994, Mr. Walter received 100 common stock equivalents upon his election as a director, pursuant to the above-described program. Under the Advisory Director's Plan, a non-employee director who completes at least five years of Board service and retires at age 70 (or such earlier date as may be approved by the Advisory Plan committee) will receive a post-retirement annual payment of an amount equal to 100% of the annual retainer in effect at the time of the director's retirement. An eligible director receives one such annual payment for each full year of Board service up to a maximum of ten payments. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation, such benefits vest immediately and the value of unpaid benefits are paid on such terms as the Advisory Plan committee may prescribe. As part of its overall program to promote charitable giving, the Corporation established the Director's Charitable Giving Program funded by life insurance policies maintained by the Corporation on directors. A non-employee director, upon completing five years of Board service, and the chairman and chief executive officer of the Corporation, are eligible to participate in this program. Upon the death of a director, the Corporation will make a donation of $500,000 to a single qualifying charitable or other non-profit organization, or a donation of $250,000 to each of two such organizations, selected by that director. The Corporation will subsequently be reimbursed by life insurance proceeds. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation, donations may be made as of the date of such change in control and paid on such basis and in such form as the Program committee may prescribe. Individual directors derive no financial benefit from this program, since all charitable deductions accrue solely to the Corporation. One of the items being voted on at the annual meeting is a proposal to amend the Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors. If the proposal is adopted, a director's annual compensation will be modified as follows: beginning April 26, 1995, in addition to the annual cash retainer, each non-employee director elected at an annual meeting will receive an option grant to purchase 3,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock in lieu of the prior practice of receiving annual grants of 400 common stock equivalents as described above. Committee chairs will receive an annual option grant to purchase 750 shares of the Corporation's common stock in addition to the $2,000 annual fee. For more information on these proposed changes, see pages 30 through 34. TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS During 1994, the Corporation and its subsidiaries engaged in various transactions in the ordinary course of business with unaffiliated corporations of which certain of the non-employee directors are executive officers. The Corporation does not consider the amounts involved in any of these transactions to be material. In the normal course of its business, the Corporation paid $105,964 during 1994 to Newmyer Associates, Incorporated, a firm that provides newsletters and monitoring and reporting services to companies on congressional and executive branch developments. Mr. Carlucci is chairman and a 10% shareholder of Newmyer. The Corporation expects to continue to use the services of Newmyer in 1995. 13 16 LITIGATION INVOLVING DERIVATIVE CLAIMS AGAINST DIRECTORS In December 1988, a derivative action was filed in the United States District Court, District of New Jersey, against the Corporation and certain of its previous directors and current directors McLaughlin, McPherson, Morrow and Pivirotto, seeking disqualification of such persons from continuing to serve as directors and other legal, equitable or declaratory relief as the court deems proper plus costs and attorneys' fees. This action alleged violations by the directors of certain provisions of the federal securities laws in connection with the construction of a nuclear power plant in the Republic of the Philippines. The complaint also asserted state law breach of fiduciary duty claims arising from the alleged failure to pursue causes of action the Corporation was alleged to possess against those individuals responsible for any alleged wrongdoing in connection with the procurement of the contract to construct the Philippines nuclear power plant. A 15 count lawsuit was filed against the Corporation in connection with the construction of this plant. In July 1993, a jury ruled in favor of the Corporation on one of the counts. The remaining counts are the subject of an arbitration proceeding which was completed in October 1994; the parties await a decision. In January 1994, after numerous motions, the parties submitted to the District Court a stipulation dismissing the derivative action without prejudice. In the stipulation, plaintiffs reserved the right to reinstate the action if the July 1993 judgment in favor of the Corporation is reversed or modified or if the Corporation is found liable on any other claim asserted against it arising out of the Philippines plant. In April and December 1991, derivative actions were filed in the United States District Court, Western District of Pennsylvania, against the Corporation and certain of its previous directors and current directors Carlucci, McLaughlin, McPherson, Morrow and Pivirotto, alleging violation of the directors' common law fiduciary duties in connection with the operation of Westinghouse Financial Services, Inc. and Westinghouse Credit Corporation, former subsidiaries of the Corporation. This suit was amended in June 1992 to allege violations of the federal securities laws. This suit was dismissed in its entirety in July 1993. Plaintiffs subsequently refiled the action and defendants moved to dismiss the refiled complaint. On January 20, 1995, the court again dismissed plaintiffs' claims. However, the plaintiffs appealed this ruling on February 8, 1995. Westinghouse and the individual director defendants believe that these actions are without merit and intend to defend the suits vigorously. In accordance with Article XVII of its by-laws, Westinghouse intends to indemnify the director defendants against reasonable expenses and any liability or amounts paid in settlement or incurred by them in connection with the foregoing to the extent not prohibited by law. In addition, Westinghouse maintains policies of insurance under which its directors are insured, subject to specified exclusions and deductibles and maximum amounts, against loss arising from any civil claim or claims which may be made against any director by reason of any breach of duty, neglect, error, misstatement, misleading statement, omission or other act done or wrongfully attempted as a director. 14 17 SECURITY OWNERSHIP The following table sets forth the number of shares of Westinghouse common stock beneficially owned on January 6, 1995 by each director or nominee, by each of the named executive officers and by the directors and executive officers as a group as reported by each such person. On that date, all such persons as a group beneficially owned less than one percent of the outstanding common stock of the Corporation. Each person has sole voting and investment power over the shares reported, except as noted. No other equity securities of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, other than director qualifying shares, were beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any director, nominee, named executive officer or other executive officer on January 6, 1995.

(1) This column shows awards of incentive compensation under the Annual Performance Plan. The recipient of an award may elect to defer up to 100% of the award, to be paid either (i) in one installment in any future year not later than the year of normal retirement, or (ii) in a lump sum or annual installments after termination of service. The deferred amount is treated as if it were invested in putative convertible debentures with a fixed interest rate, compounded annually, equal to the ten-year U.S. Treasury Bond rate (or future equivalent U.S. 17 20 Treasury security rate if the ten-year U.S. Treasury Bonds are not issued during the relevant week) for the week preceding the regular January Board meeting on or after the date of the award. Each debenture is deemed to have a face value of $100 and is deemed to be convertible into shares of Westinghouse common stock at a conversion rate determined by dividing $100 by the mean of the high and low prices of Westinghouse common stock as reported by the composite tape of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on the last trading day preceding the regular January Board meeting. At the time a deferred installment is paid, the employee receives the greater value of (i) the cash amount equal to the face value of such debentures due for such installment, plus cash equal to accrued interest on such installment, or (ii) shares of the Corporation's common stock equaling the number of shares into which the debentures due for such installment are convertible at the above conversion rate, plus cash equal to accrued interest on such installment. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation, shares are valued based upon the highest price of the common stock during the thirty days preceding such change in control of the Corporation. A participant who has deferred compensation until after termination of service may elect, after attaining age 57 1/2 and prior to ceasing to be an employee, to establish the ultimate payable value of each putative debenture based on the fair market value of the Corporation's common stock as of the day on which notice of the election is received by the Corporation. (2) The amounts shown in this column for 1994 consist of (i) 1994 contributions by the Corporation to the account of the named executive officer pursuant to the contributory provisions of the Westinghouse Savings Program, and (ii) moving expenses of $19,672 for Mr. Jordan and $92,375 for Mr. Reynolds. (3) Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Reynolds received 1994 bonuses of $700,000, $550,000 and $300,000 respectively. In lieu of receiving the full amount in cash, Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Reynolds received 85,862, 67,268 and 37,500 stock options respectively. These stock options are included in the Securities Underlying Options/SARs column. (4) Mr. Reynolds' received a $27,750 payout in connection with a grant he obtained upon commencement of his employment. This grant had the same performance measures and other requirements as those applicable to the 1992-1994 long-term incentive grant made to other senior-level corporate executives. However, because Mr. Reynolds has been with the Corporation for less than a year, his payout is not considered to be long-term and is therefore included in the Bonus column. 18 21 OPTION GRANTS The following table shows all grants in 1994 of stock options to the executive officers named in the summary compensation table on page 17. All of these grants were made under the 1993 Long-Term Incentive Plan ( 1993 Plan ). No stock appreciation rights were granted during 1994. OPTION GRANTS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR

(1) All stock options were granted to the named executive officers on April 26, 1994, except for a grant of options for 150,000 shares made to Mr. Reynolds upon commencement of his employment. These stock options were granted in tandem with limited rights. Options granted to date under the 1993 Plan are for a term of ten years from the date of award, or such lesser term as may be determined by the Compensation Committee. Except in the event of a change in control of the Corporation, generally an option is exercisable in whole or in part after the commencement of the second year of its term and until the option terminates. Limited rights are exercisable only in the event of a change in control of the Corporation and during the thirty days immediately following such change. When a limited right is exercised, the employee is entitled to receive the difference between the exercise price of the related option and the greater of (i) the highest sales price of the common stock during the sixty days prior to exercise, or (ii) the highest price paid for the common stock in the change in control transactions during such period. Under the 1993 Plan, the exercise price under each option may not be less than the fair market value of the stock on the option date. Reload options are granted to employees at the time of an exercise 19 22 of a stock option through a stock swap, unless the Compensation Committee cancels the reload feature before such exercise. The reload option is granted for the number of shares the employee tenders to pay the exercise price of the related option. (2) Not included in this chart are 85,862, 67,268 and 37,500 stock options granted on January 25, 1995 to Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Reynolds respectively in connection with their year end 1994 bonuses. These stock options have an exercise price of $13.81, are immediately exercisable and otherwise have the same general terms as the options described in footnote 1 to this chart. (3) These values were derived using the following common assumptions, all of which are representative of conditions existing when these stock options were granted: for the options with a $14.31 exercise price: stock price volatility .2706; dividend yield 1.4%; interest rate 6.14%; for the options with an $11.63 exercise price: stock price volatility .2890; dividend yield 1.72%; interest rate 7.04%; and for all options, a ten-year term. There were no adjustments made for non-transferability or risk of forfeiture. The values and assumptions presented here were provided by Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. and were based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The actual value, if any, that an executive officer may realize from his or her stock options (assuming that they are exercised) will depend solely on the gain in stock price over the exercise price when the shares are sold. OPTION EXERCISES AND FISCAL YEAR-END VALUES The following table provides information as to the unexercised options to purchase the Corporation's common stock granted in 1994 and prior years to the named executive officers and the value of options held by them at year-end. None of the named executive officers exercised any options during 1994. FISCAL YEAR-END OPTION VALUES

20 23 (1) Not included in this chart are 85,862, 67,268 and 37,500 stock options granted on January 25, 1995 to Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Reynolds respectively in connection with their year end 1994 bonuses. (2) Based on the closing price of the Corporation's common stock as reported by the composite tape of the NYSE on December 30, 1994 ($12.25). (3) These options are unexercisable because they have not yet vested under their terms. PENSION BENEFITS All of the individuals named in the summary compensation table on page 17 are participants in the Westinghouse Pension Plan (the Plan), which is a defined benefit plan. The Plan is designed to provide retirement income related to an employee's salary and years of active service. The cost of the Plan is paid by both Westinghouse and employee contributions. All Westinghouse contributions are actuarially determined. The Corporation's contributions to the Plan with respect to the individuals named in the summary compensation table cannot readily be separately or individually calculated by the actuaries for the Plan. As of December 31, 1994, the individuals named in the summary compensation table had the following credited full years of service under the Plan: Mr. Jordan, 1 year; Mr. Clark, 37 years; Mr. Korn, 4 years; Mr. Reynolds, 0 years; and Mr. Linder, 37 years. In addition to the benefits provided by the Plan, the Westinghouse Executive Pension Plan (the Executive Plan) provides for supplemental pension payments to a group of executives, including those named in the summary compensation table. Upon retirement, such individuals who have five continuous years of service, meet the age and service requirements for retirement under the Plan, and contribute to the Plan are entitled to receive supplemental payments under the Executive Plan which, when added to their pensions under the Plan, result in a total annual pension equal to 1.47% for each year of service multiplied by their average annual compensation as defined by the Executive Plan. Average annual compensation is equal to the sum of the average of the five highest annualized December base salaries and the average of the five highest annual incentive awards, each in the last ten years of employment. In the event of retirement prior to age 60, the total annual pension will be reduced by an amount equal to the reduction in the benefits payable under the Plan. Participants become vested in the event of a change in control of the Corporation and benefits under the Executive Plan may be paid on a present value or other basis. For purposes of illustration, the following table indicates the approximate amounts of annual retirement income that would be payable at the present time under various assumptions as to average annual compensation and years of service to employees who participate in the Plan and are eligible for supplemental payments pursuant to the Executive Plan. The amounts presented in the table are based upon straight life annuity amounts and are not subject to any reduction for Social Security benefits or other offset amounts. 21 24 Estimated annual pension for Five year average specified years of credited service compensation including -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- incentive award 15 20 25 30 35 40 - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 100,000 $ 22,050 $ 29,400 $ 36,750 $ 44,100 $ 51,450 $ 58,800 300,000 66,150 88,200 110,250 132,300 154,350 176,400 500,000 110,250 147,000 183,750 220,500 257,250 294,000 700,000 154,350 205,800 257,250 308,700 360,150 411,600 900,000 198,450 264,600 330,750 396,900 463,050 529,200 1,100,000 242,550 323,400 404,250 485,100 565,950 646,800 1,500,000 330,750 441,000 551,250 661,500 771,750 882,000 2,000,000 441,000 588,000 735,000 882,000 1,029,000 1,176,000
COMPENSATION AND SEVERANCE ARRANGEMENTS MICHAEL H. JORDAN In June 1993, the Corporation retained the services of Michael H. Jordan as chairman and chief executive officer of the Corporation. Under the terms of Mr. Jordan's employment agreement, he received an annual base salary in 1993 and 1994 of $1,000,000. For 1993, Mr. Jordan was paid $503,799 for the period he was employed. Beginning in 1995, Mr. Jordan's annual base salary is subject to yearly review. Mr. Jordan is eligible for annual incentive awards based on performance measures set by the Compensation Committee. Under the agreement, Mr. Jordan received a $500,000 Equity Plus grant for the 1992-1994 performance cycle. The payout of this grant, which was subject to the same performance measures as other Equity Plus grants made in 1992, is set forth in the table on page 17. Mr. Jordan also received options to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Corporation, of which 750,000 have an exercise price of $15.44 per share and 250,000 have an exercise price of $26.00 per share. Beginning in 1996, or earlier if the Compensation Committee so determines, he is eligible to receive long-term incentive grants on the same basis as other senior-level executives of the Corporation. The agreement further provides that Mr. Jordan will participate in the Westinghouse Executive Pension Plan and specifically modifies the requirement that he complete five years of continuous service and provides that there will be no actuarial reduction for commencement of supplemental pension benefits prior to age 65. Such benefits are contingent upon Mr. Jordan's contribution of the maximum possible amounts to the Westinghouse Pension Plan during his employment. Mr. Jordan's employment agreement extends until he attains age 65 or until terminated in accordance with the terms of the agreement, whichever is earlier. In the event of termination by the Corporation without cause, Mr. Jordan is entitled to a lump-sum payment equal to two times his highest base salary plus the greater of (i) the 22 25 sum of his two most recent actual annual incentive awards, or (ii) two times his highest annual incentive target award opportunity. He would also receive prorated incentive payments and other specified benefits. FREDRIC G. REYNOLDS Early in 1994, the Corporation retained the services of Fredric G. Reynolds as executive vice president and chief financial officer of the Corporation. In order to attract Mr. Reynolds to the Corporation, his annual base salary in 1994 was set at $350,000, of which $291,660 was paid for the period he was employed. Beginning in 1995, Mr. Reynolds' annual base salary is subject to yearly review. Mr. Reynolds is eligible for annual incentive awards based on performance measures set by the Compensation Committee, and is entitled to minimum annual incentive compensation of $150,000 for 1994 and 1995. Mr. Reynolds also received a $75,000 Equity Plus grant for the 1992-1994 performance cycle. The payout of this grant, which was subject to the same performance measures as other Equity Plus grants made in 1992, is set forth in the table on page 17. Mr. Reynolds also received options to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of common stock of the Corporation, as set forth in the table on page 19, on his employment date. Mr. Reynolds is also eligible to receive long-term incentive grants on the same basis as other senior-level executives of the Corporation. In the event of termination by the Corporation without cause, Mr. Reynolds is entitled to receive each month after termination, for a period of twelve months, an amount equal to his then applicable monthly base salary, which will be in lieu of any other salary continuation programs. OTHER COMPENSATION The Board has determined that employees receiving payments pursuant to change in control provisions of any compensation or other employee benefit plan should not be adversely affected by any tax imposed on such payments by reason of Section 4999 of the Code, and has authorized the Corporation to make additional payments in an amount sufficient to satisfy any such tax liability. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The Committee, which is composed entirely of outside independent directors, reviews, approves and monitors the design and implementation of the Corporation's executive compensation system. The Committee also determines the amount and form of compensation for the chief executive officer. For purposes of making compensation determinations, the Committee uses broad-based industry surveys of what executives with comparable responsibilities are paid and evaluates individual performance. In 1994, the Committee retained the services of Independent Consulting Resources Inc., a compensation consulting firm, to provide advice to the Committee on executive compensation matters. 23 26 THE WESTINGHOUSE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM The Westinghouse executive compensation program is a pay-for-performance compensation system consisting of base salaries and incentives (annual and long-term) that pay executives for the achievement of performance levels designed to increase shareholder value of the Corporation. The system also enables the Corporation to hire, retain and motivate high-quality globally-oriented executives who successfully meet the immediate business challenges and improve the long-term performance of the Corporation and is designed to pay base salaries and provide total compensation opportunities which are competitive as measured against industry norms. For purposes of measuring competitive compensation opportunities, the Committee uses a manufacturing industry survey prepared by Management Compensation Services, a division of Hewitt Associates. This survey of 335 companies, which derive over 50% of their revenue from manufacturing operations, provides information on base salaries and annual incentives paid to executives. The data is segregated by industry classification, assigned responsibilities and size of business as measured by sales revenue. The Committee targets the median or 50th percentile for comparable size and scope of responsibilities of this database for purposes of establishing base salary and annual incentive opportunities for Westinghouse executives, except where a higher percentile is justified by consistently higher performance. The Towers-Perrin Entertainment Industry Survey is used for executives in the broadcasting business segment. For purposes of measuring competitive long-term incentive opportunities, the Committee uses a survey conducted by Frederick W. Cook & Co., Inc. on behalf of 33 multibillion dollar revenue companies. This survey uses a consistent methodology for converting all forms of actual long-term incentive grants into equivalent annual stock option grants. The Committee targets the median or 50th percentile of this survey for the purpose of making competitive long-term incentive grants. BASE SALARIES Each executive officer position is assigned a grade and a salary range which takes into consideration the level of responsibility involved, the knowledge and experience required, and competitive levels as determined from the survey data. Each year, the executive's performance is evaluated and any base salary increase is based on a judgmental evaluation of individual performance and contribution. Each year, recommendations for salary adjustments for all executives are prepared by the chief executive officer and are reviewed, modified where appropriate, and approved by the Committee. ANNUAL INCENTIVES The Committee administers the Annual Performance Plan, a shareholder-approved plan under which annual incentive compensation may be paid to key employees of the Corporation in an aggregate amount up to 5% of consolidated net income of the Corporation before deducting income taxes and subject to certain exclusions the Committee may make. 24 27 For 1994, the Committee established early in the year threshold, target and maximum financial objectives for the total Corporation and each individual business unit. Awards for executive officers associated with specific business units were weighted 75% on the performance of their business unit and 25% on the basis of corporate performance. Business unit performances were measured against the pre-determined objectives, typically on the basis of 40% operating profit, 24% investment turnover, 16% revenue and 20% specific non-financial initiatives. Other executive officers were measured up to 50% on the basis of corporate income before tax against the pre-determined objectives, with the remainder based on performance against specific strategic initiatives. Overall corporate financial performance for 1994 with adjustments as permitted by the Annual Performance Plan was slightly below target objective. As a result of financial performance and performance of specific initiatives, the chief executive officer made an award recommendation for each executive officer of the Corporation. These recommendations were reviewed with and, to the extent determined appropriate, approved by the Committee. In terms of the competitive targeted compensation, this results in the executives being paid, on average, at the 50th percentile. The Committee made annual incentive awards to the chief executive officer, president and chief financial officer part in cash, subject to deferral, and part as grants of stock options for Westinghouse common stock. Annual incentives to other executive officers were awarded in cash, subject to deferral under the program described on pages 17 and 18. LONG-TERM INCENTIVES Long-term incentive opportunities were granted to executive officers during 1994 in the form of non-qualified stock option grants. These stock option grants were made to provide a performance-based incentive that rewards executives when shareholder value increases. This long-term incentive opportunity is also intended to promote a sense of ownership, both direct and potential, on the part of executives, and to establish a community of interest with shareholders. Option grants for 1994 were made to executives based on their level of responsibility and a subjective evaluation of individual performance using the 50th percentile of data from the Frederick W. Cook & Co., Inc. survey referenced earlier. In determining the grant level, principal emphasis was placed on the preceding factors and on the executive's potential role in increasing shareholder value. The number of shares currently owned directly and through various deferral arrangements by an executive was not considered in making these award grants. In prior years, a portion of the long-term incentive opportunity granted to executive officers was made in the form of an Equity Plus grant. An Equity Plus grant is a long-term contingent dollar grant that can increase or decrease in value during a three-year measurement period, depending upon two multipliers. The first multiplier is based on the financial performance of the Corporation or specific business unit as measured against income and balance sheet objectives. An executive officer can receive from zero up to three times the original grant amount based on the Corporation's or business unit's performance against these objectives over the measurement period. The second multiplier is based on stock appreciation during the same measurement period. Again, if the market value of the stock increases, both the executive and shareholders benefit. However, the stock multiplier is applied 25 28 only when the stock price increases and the threshold financial performance measurements are met. The executive may defer up to 100% of any awards of Equity Plus grants made by the Committee, and amounts currently paid are generally delivered in shares of Westinghouse common stock. Equity Plus grants for the period 1992-1994 were contingent on financial performance of the Corporation for the measurement period against financial performance objectives. Corporate financial performance was measured against objectives based 100% on the income before tax of the Corporation's continuing businesses (other than Knoll and WCI Communities) after achieving targeted investment turnover (sales divided by investment) goals. Corporate financial performance as measured against the above indicated goals for the three-year period of 1992-1994 was 37% of the target objective, which was above the established threshold corporate performance level. In measuring corporate performance, the Committee had excluded the operations designated for sale as part of the November 1992 restructuring plan and the Financial Services business unit financial performance during the period in order to motivate executives to focus on building shareholder value of the other Westinghouse businesses through operating performance. The Committee also excluded the fourth quarter 1993 and 1994 charges related to restructuring and other strategic actions which are intended to result in higher future performance and increased shareholder value and the fourth quarter 1994 pension settlement charge. The stock multiplier was not applicable to any of the awards. Non-deferred awards, after appropriate withholdings, were generally paid in Westinghouse common stock with some paid in cash. COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS As described below, the Corporation has entered into an employment contract with its chief executive officer, Michael H. Jordan. In addition, in order to attract the chief financial officer, Fredric G. Reynolds, to the Corporation in early 1994, the Corporation set his 1994 base salary and agreed to provide Mr. Reynolds with a separation benefit equal to his then applicable base salary, payable for a year, under certain conditions as summarized on page 23. Mr. Reynolds also received incentives designed to motivate and to reward him for increased value to shareholders in the form of a stock option grant, a 1992-1994 Equity Plus grant with the same performance measurements and other requirements applicable to grants to other senior-level executives, and minimum annual incentive awards for 1994 and 1995. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER Michael H. Jordan joined the Corporation as its chairman and chief executive officer on June 30, 1993. The terms of the Corporation's employment contract with Mr. Jordan were negotiated by the Committee and were structured to attract Mr. Jordan to accept the challenges presented by the Corporation's businesses, to motivate him to take the actions necessary and to reward him for increased value to shareholders. In negotiating and reviewing this agreement, the Committee referenced information provided by executive compensation consulting firms - Sibson & Company and Towers-Perrin regarding compensation levels for chief executive officers of 26 29 companies of similar size and diversity as the Corporation. Mr. Jordan's base salary, annual incentive and long-term incentive compensation are paid in accordance with this agreement. The major provisions of this agreement are summarized on page 22. Mr. Jordan was paid a base salary of $1,000,000 for 1994. This base salary is set forth in his employment agreement and was set in part based on competitive base salaries and annual salary reviews not beginning until calendar year 1995. For 1994, the Committee determined to award Mr. Jordan an annual bonus of $700,000, part of which was deferred and part of which was delivered as options for Westinghouse common stock. The Committee based this award on: (i) the Corporation's income before tax, as described earlier in this report, (ii) performance on specific financial and non-financial initiatives, (iii) judgmental evaluation by the Committee of Mr. Jordan's individual performance and contribution and (iv) competitive data from the surveys previously mentioned. As part of Mr. Jordan's contract, he received in 1993 long-term incentive opportunities consisting of an initial, front-end-loaded grant of stock options for 1,000,000 shares of Westinghouse common stock, of which 750,000 have an exercise price of $15.44 per share and 250,000 have an exercise price of $26.00 per share, and a $500,000 Equity Plus grant for the period of 1992-1994. The Equity Plus incentive opportunity had the same performance measures and other requirements as those applicable to the outstanding 1992-1994 Equity Plus grants to other senior-level corporate executives, and was intended to place him on a par with these executives. Mr. Jordan did not receive any additional stock options as a long-term incentive for 1994. Mr. Jordan received payment of the contingent Equity Plus grant for the 1992-1994 period based on corporate performance for the period ending in 1994 as described earlier in the amount of $185,000, which is 37% of original grant value. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 provides that, beginning in 1994, compensation for certain individual executive officers will not be deductible to the extent that the officer's compensation for that year exceeds $1,000,000. With the current structure of compensation and the availability of deferral opportunities, the Committee believes the Corporation will not be denied any significant tax deductions for 1994 or over the next two years. The Committee has reviewed and will continue to review tax consequences as well as other relevant considerations when making compensation decisions. Qualifying performance-based compensation will be excluded from the $1,000,000 cap, and the Committee believes, based on information currently available, that the Corporation's stock options to its executive officers will qualify for this exclusion. 27 30 COMPENSATION COMMITTEE Richard R. Pivirotto, Chair Frank C. Carlucci George H. Conrades David T. McLaughlin Rene C. McPherson Richard M. Morrow COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION Messrs. Pivirotto, Carlucci, Conrades, McLaughlin, McPherson and Morrow served as members of the Compensation Committee during 1994. Mr. Carlucci is chairman and a 10% shareholder of Newmyer Associates, Incorporated, a firm that offers companies newsletters and monitoring and reporting services on congressional and executive branch developments. In the normal course of its business, the Corporation paid Newmyer $105,964 during 1994 for such services, and expects to continue to use such services in 1995.

ELECTION OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS (Item 2 on proxy card) Independent accountants are to be elected to audit and express an opinion on the Corporation's financial statements for 1995. During the year ended December 31, 1994, Price Waterhouse LLP (Price Waterhouse) served as the principal independent accounting firm for the Corporation. During such period, the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries paid Price Waterhouse approximately $11,627,000 for various audit and non-audit services. Price Waterhouse is named as a defendant in a class action and an individual action brought by present and former shareholders of the Corporation against the Corporation and others. These actions allege federal securities law and common law violations. The claims against Price Waterhouse relate to the audits of the Westinghouse consolidated financial statements for the years 1989 and 1990 and the reports rendered thereon. In July 1993, all 29 32 claims against Price Waterhouse were dismissed. Plaintiffs have subsequently refiled the claims and Price Waterhouse has again moved to dismiss the claims. On January 20, 1995 these claims were again dismissed. Plaintiffs have notified the court that they intend to appeal this decision. Before making its recommendation to the entire Board, the Audit Review Committee carefully considers the qualifications of the candidates for the Corporation's independent accountants. In the case of Price Waterhouse, this consideration has included a review of its performance in prior years as well as its reputation for integrity and for competence in the fields of accounting and auditing. The Committee's review of Price Waterhouse also included inquiry concerning litigation involving Price Waterhouse and the existence of any investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Audit Review Committee has expressed its satisfaction with Price Waterhouse in all of these respects. The persons named in the enclosed proxy card (Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Briskman) have advised that they intend to vote for the election of Price Waterhouse unless a contrary direction is indicated on the proxy card. A representative of Price Waterhouse will be present at the 1995 Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement. He or she will also respond to any appropriate questions. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF PRICE WATERHOUSE AS INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS. The favorable vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal is required for passage. 3. PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE DEFERRED STOCK AND COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS (Item 3 on proxy card) GENERAL INFORMATION The Compensation Committee and the Board periodically review director compensation, including competitive data from independent surveys. The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that compensation provides an important means of attracting, retaining and motivating high-quality, experienced individuals to serve as the Corporation's directors. Other than providing for fees for special services outside the scope of normal Board and Committee activities, the Board has not approved an increase in director compensation since April 1991. The Compensation Committee has now recommended and the Board approved on February 22, 1995, subject to the approval of the holders of the Corporation's common stock, an increase in non-employee director compensation as follows: (i) the current automatic annual grant to each director of 400 common stock equivalents would be replaced by an automatic annual grant to each director of options to purchase 3,000 shares of common stock of the Corporation (Common Stock), and (ii) the annual Committee chair fee of $2,000 would be increased by adding an automatic annual grant of options to purchase 750 shares of Common Stock. For each of these grants, two-thirds of the options would have an exercise price at the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant and 30 33 the remaining one-third would have an exercise price of 125% of that fair market value. Directors would be required to hold any stock they receive when an option is exercised for a designated period of time. The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that these modifications to the Corporation's compensation for non-employee directors are appropriate in light of available competitive data on comparable companies, and believe that stock options are an appropriate vehicle for compensating directors. Granting stock options and requiring directors to hold option stock for a designated period of time encourage stock ownership by directors and serve to further align the directors' interests with those of shareholders. As the exercise price for two-thirds of the shares subject to such options will be at the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant and the remaining shares will be at 125% of such value, the directors will benefit only when shareholders benefit. PROPOSED AMENDMENT The Board proposes to implement these changes by amendment to the existing Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors, which was approved by shareholders in April 1992. The proposed amendment also includes an increase in shares available under this plan from 150,000 to 500,000 shares of Common Stock in order to accommodate the proposed stock option grants and provide for ongoing plan needs. Because the non-employee director nominees, if elected, will participate in the Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors as amended (Directors Plan) and will benefit from the proposed amendment, each of them has a personal interest in the adoption of this proposal. SUMMARY The following is a general description of the principal features of the Directors Plan. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Directors Plan, which is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by reference. The Directors Plan is available only to directors of the Corporation who are not employees or officers of the Corporation or its subsidiaries and is administered by the Compensation Committee. The number of participants will vary with the number of non-employee directors. Had the proposed amendment been in effect during 1994, non-employee directors as a group would have received stock options for 24,750 shares of Common Stock, in place of 3,300 common stock equivalents, and Committee chairs as a group would have received stock options for 3,000 shares of Common Stock. There will be 500,000 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Directors Plan after shareholder approval of the proposed amendment. Any shares subject to an award or deferral under the Directors Plan which are forfeited or for any other reason are not issued to a director and any shares tendered to pay the exercise price of a stock option will automatically be available again for use under the Directors Plan as long as such share replenishment is permitted under Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and interpretations thereof by the staff of the SEC. 31 34 The Directors Plan continues the current plan feature that permits a non-employee director to elect to defer all or a portion of his or her annual cash retainer and other cash fees, with a deferred amount being treated as if it were a convertible debenture. However, the proposed amendment will replace the current automatic annual grant of 400 common stock equivalents to each non-employee director with stock option grants. Common stock equivalents already credited to directors' accounts will continue to earn hypothetical dividends until they are paid out. Under the proposed amendment, beginning April 26, 1995, each year each non-employee director will automatically receive a grant of non-statutory options (Stock Options) to purchase 3,000 shares of Common Stock. Each Committee chair will also automatically receive each year a grant of Stock Options to purchase 750 shares of Common Stock. These Stock Options will include the following terms and such additional terms as the Compensation Committee may require: Exercise Price. For each grant of Stock Options, two thirds of such options will have an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock (defined as the mean of the high and low prices of the Common Stock as reported by the composite tape of the NYSE, or, if no sales are reported on the relevant date, the average of such prices on the next preceding and next following days with reported sales) on the date of grant and the remaining one-third of such options will have an exercise price equal to 125% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. As of March 2, 1995, the closing price of the Corporation's Common Stock as reported on the NYSE composite tape was $14.63. Exercisability. Stock Options will be immediately exercisable by the director in whole or in part. Mandatory Holding of Common Stock. Once a director exercises a Stock Option, he or she must hold the Common Stock so acquired until the earlier of (i) three years from the exercise date, (ii) two years after he or she ceases to be a director, or (iii) the occurrence of a change in control of the Corporation (as defined in the Directors Plan) (the Holding Period). Generally, the Holding Period will not apply to a director's estate. Option Term and Early Termination. Generally, a Stock Option will have a ten-year term. However, after the death of a director, an outstanding Stock Option can only be exercised by the person the director designated as his or her beneficiary or by those entitled to do so under the director's will or the applicable laws of descent or distribution, and then only for two years after the director's death (or until the expiration of the ten-year term, if earlier). Also, if a director is removed from office for cause (as defined in the Directors Plan), his or her outstanding Stock Options will cease to be exercisable after the director is so removed. Payment of Exercise Price. The exercise price of a Stock Option can be paid in cash, by check or money order, through the delivery of shares of Common Stock held at least six months with a fair market value on the business day before exercise equal to the exercise price (a stock swap), by delivery of an unconditional, irrevocable undertaking by a broker to deliver the necessary funds to the Corporation, or by a combination of any of these methods. Reload options are not available under the Directors Plan. 32 35 Federal Income Tax Consequences. The federal income taxation under the provisions of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder of the Stock Options is generally as follows: No taxable income will be recognized by a director upon the granting of a Stock Option. Upon the exercise of a Stock Option, however, the director will recognize taxable income in the year of exercise in an amount equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the Common Stock received on the date of exercise. The director's tax basis in these shares will be the sum of the option exercise price plus any income recognized upon exercise. At the time of any subsequent sale or other disposition of the shares, the director will realize capital gain (or loss) equal to the difference between the amount received for the shares and his or her tax basis in such shares. The capital gain or loss will be long-term or short-term, depending on the director's holding period for such shares. If a director uses previously owned shares to exercise Stock Options, no additional income results unless other property, including money, is received by the director in the exchange. Assuming no gain or loss is recognized, the director's tax basis and holding period of the previously owned shares will be carried over to the equivalent number of shares received on exercise. Any additional shares received upon exercise will result in the director recognizing taxable income equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise. The tax basis of the additional shares will be equal, in the aggregate, to the taxable income recognized by the director plus any cash paid. The holding period will begin on the day after the tax basis of the shares is determined. However, if the previously owned shares had been acquired on the exercise of an incentive stock option and the holding period requirement for those shares was not satisfied at the time they were used to exercise this Stock Option, such use would constitute a disposition of such previously owned shares resulting in the recognition of ordinary income as described above. The value of gains that are received from Stock Options are classified as either ordinary income or capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 has increased the individual top marginal income tax rate while the capital gains rate remained at 28%, with the limited exception for gains on qualified small business stock. Therefore, different tax rates apply to capital gains versus ordinary income (28% versus 39.6%). The Corporation will be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes at the same time the director recognizes ordinary income under the rules described above. The foregoing is a summary only and applies only to United States federal income taxes. The law on which the above discussion is based is subject to change at any time. The Directors Plan also provides that Stock Options and rights to receive payments or distributions under the Directors Plan are not assignable or transferable by a director, other than pursuant to certain domestic relations orders and certain limited transfers on a director's death. Stock acquired from exercising a Stock Option is also 33 36 nontransferable prior to the end of the applicable Holding Period, with limited exceptions for domestic relations orders and on death. The shares available under the Directors Plan and the terms of awards and deferrals are subject to adjustment to reflect certain changes in the Corporation's Common Stock. The Directors Plan can be terminated by the Board at any time and can be amended by the Board subject to certain timing and shareholder approval requirements stated in the plan. The proposed amendment to the Directors Plan will be effective on the date on which it is approved by the holders of the Corporation's Common Stock. If the amendment is not approved, the current Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors, without the amendment, will remain in effect. With the proposed amendment, the name of the plan would also change to reflect the replacement of common stock equivalents (Deferred Stock) with options for stock. The persons named in the enclosed proxy card (Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Briskman) have advised that they intend to vote to approve the amendment unless a contrary direction is indicated on the proxy card. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE DEFERRED STOCK AND COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS. The favorable vote of a majority of the shares of common stock present, either in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote on the matter at the annual meeting, is required to amend the Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors. 4. PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE 1993 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN (Item 4 on proxy card) GENERAL INFORMATION The Corporation's 1993 Long-Term Incentive Plan (1993 Plan) was initially approved by the Corporation's shareholders at the Corporation's 1994 Annual Meeting. Subject to its terms and conditions, the 1993 Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee of the Board to grant various awards, including stock options to purchase shares of the Corporation's common stock, SARs and limited rights, to a designated group of employees. When the 1993 Plan was proposed for shareholder approval in April 1994, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) had just published proposed regulations relating to Section 162(m) of the Code, but had not yet published final regulations or guidance on how the regulations would be interpreted. The 1993 Plan was drafted to comply with the proposed regulations. After more than a year, proposed revised regulations have been published together with extensive commentary on Section 162(m) of the Code. Based on the revised regulations relating to Section 162(m) and in order for the Corporation to more fully avail itself of the provisions of Section 162(m), the Corporation is proposing that the 1993 Plan be amended as follows: 34 37 PROPOSED AMENDMENTS The proposed amendments, which were recommended and approved by the Compensation Committee and adopted by the Board on January 25, 1995 and February 22, 1995, subject to approval of the holders of the Corporation's common stock, would (i) expand the class of eligible participants who can receive stock options, SARs, and limited rights that qualify as performance based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, by expanding overall plan eligibility to all key salaried employees who have the capacity to contribute to the success of the Company, and (ii) substitute a fixed numerical limit (3,500,000 shares) for the current percentage limit on the receipt by any one participant of stock options, SARs and limited rights. This number would be an annual limit with unused amounts being available for awards in future years. The full text of the proposed amendments is set forth in Exhibit B to this proxy statement and is incorporated herein by reference. The persons named in the enclosed proxy card (Messrs. Jordan, Clark and Briskman) have advised that they intend to vote to approve the amendment unless a contrary direction is indicated on the proxy card. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENTS TO THE 1993 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN. The favorable vote of a majority of the shares of common stock present, either in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote on the matter at the annual meeting, is required to amend the 1993 Long-Term Incentive Plan. 5. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: COMPENSATION TIED TO DIVIDEND (Item 5 on proxy card) Westinghouse has been advised that Robert J. Clark, the beneficial owner of 2,400 shares of common stock, and Scarlett Clark, the beneficial owner of 4,000 shares of common stock, both residing at P.O. Box 999, Southhampton, New York 11969, will submit the following proposal at the meeting: WHEREAS we, the shareholders, are the owners of the Company and WHEREAS we have no control over the salaries, bonuses, incentives, separation payments and other monies paid to individuals and WHEREAS payments made to officers of the Company and others in some instances appear to be unrelated to their contributions to the earnings of the Company as in the cases of $14.5 million reported to have been paid to R. A. Watson for eighteen months work and other payments to individuals while employees were being laid off and the dividend cut, 35 38 It is herewith resolved that, in all future contracts of employment calling for annual pay including salary, bonuses, incentives, and other payments of $200,000 per year or more, the total payments made to such individuals will be reduced at the same annual rate as the annual rate of any cut in the dividends per common share of the Company, such reduction in pay to take effect on the same date that the reduced dividend becomes effective. The holders of present contracts will be offered the opportunity to renegotiate their contract to include the foregoing provision. No employee affected by this provision shall take a total cut in Company payments of more than 25% for any one cut in the dividend. The names of those accepting renegotiation will be published in the next annual meeting statement or any suitable medium. It is further resolved that no stock purchase options shall be offered at an exercise price lower than 20% above the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange of the Company's common shares on the day the options are offered. No particular element in this proposal shall be implemented if it specifically causes the Company to violate any federal, state, or local laws specifically pertaining thereto. Management will tell us to vote against this proposal because they know how to run the Company without the advice of the shareholders. The price of the common shares disputes this. Management will also tell us they need enormous salaries to attract the best people. The best performers are attracted by the best opportunities, not by money alone. THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders to link compensation, particularly for executives, to corporate performance and increases in shareholder value. In addition, the Corporation must have the ability to attract, retain and motivate high-quality executives and other employees through compensation plans that are competitive as measured against norms and that reward employees for their individual job performance. The Corporation's current executive compensation program was carefully developed under the auspices of the Compensation Committee, which is comprised exclusively of outside independent directors. Executive compensation is closely linked to corporate and individual performance and rewards executives for the achievement of performance goals designed to increase shareholder value. The dividend rate which is the focus of this proposal is not, by itself, an appropriate standard to measure corporate performance and establish compensation levels for the Corporation's employees. It neglects a whole range of operational and financial goals of the Corporation that could enhance shareholder value, and fails to recognize significant contributions made by executive officers and other employees. The Board agrees that "money alone" is not enough to maintain the human resources needed by the Corporation, but compensation undeniably (and understandably) is a critical factor. The compensation of the Corporation's executives has been designed to attract, motivate and retain talented individuals in order to accomplish the shared 36 39 goals of the Corporation and its shareholders. These goals would not be served by arbitrarily pegging compensation to just the dividend rate, nor by imposing a downside risk on executives with no countervailing upside potential. Stock options are an important feature of total executive compensation, and reinforce the common interest of our shareholders and management in the vitality of the Corporation. They are very much a performance based incentive that rewards executives when shareholder value increases. The Compensation Committee has granted stock options with a premium exercise price over current market price when appropriate, as in the case of options for 250,000 shares to Mr. Jordan when he joined the Corporation. However, as options are an important part of the total compensation picture, the Compensation Committee must retain maximum flexibility with respect to stock option awards. This proposal would limit the Compensation Committee's flexibility. THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE AGAINST THE PROPOSED RESOLUTION. The favorable vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal is required for passage. 6. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: LINK COMPENSATION TO DIVIDEND, TERMINATE ALL BONUSES, CAP EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AT ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS (Item 6 on proxy card) Westinghouse has been advised that Rollin R. Brandenburg and Elaine M. Brandenburg, residing at 2715 Russell Road, Winthrop Harbor, Illinois 60096-1103, the beneficial owners of 3,715 shares of common stock, will submit the following proposal at the meeting: Over a period of years each time the Westinghouse Electric Company does well (the stock advanced), the Chief Executive Officer, other board members and high level managers pat themselves on the back and reward themselves with bonuses and long-term incentives. Now, because of poor management practices over a number of years, we believe when the Company does poorly these same high level personnel should take as severe a cutback, as do the stockholders. We propose that: The board of directors review their executive compensation basis and consider the stockholders using the following guidelines. All compensation to personnel above the Professional level be tied to the stock dividend rates being paid to stockholders, all bonuses be stopped immediately, in no case will any Executives total compensation and incentives exceed One Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) and all Executive pay be proportional to the Stock Dividend paid to Stockholders up to the Maximum of $1,500,000. 37 40 THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders to link compensation, particularly for executives, to corporate performance and increases in shareholder value. In addition, the Corporation must have the ability to attract, retain and motivate high-quality executives and other employees through compensation plans that are competitive as measured against industry norms and that reward employees for their individual job performance. The Corporation believes that its compensation plans and policies achieve these goals and that the interests of the Corporation and its shareholders would be adversely affected if the Corporation were to operate under the rigid and arbitrary standards sought to be imposed by this proposal. The Corporation's current executive compensation program was carefully developed under the auspices of the Compensation Committee, which is comprised exclusively of outside independent directors. Executive compensation is closely linked to corporate and individual performance and rewards executives for the achievement of performance goals designed to increase shareholder value. The dividend rate which is the focus of the proposal is not, by itself, an appropriate standard to measure corporate performance and establish compensation levels for the Corporation's employees. It neglects a whole range of operational and financial goals of the Corporation that could enhance shareholder value and fails to recognize significant contributions made by executive officers and other employees. In addition, because the Corporation sets the dividend, the Corporation believes that linking compensation in the form of benefits under the Corporation's several benefit plans to the dividend may place the Corporation in violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, which mandates that such benefits not be subject to employer discretion. Moreover, immediately stopping all bonuses or arbitrarily modifying compensation could expose the Corporation to liability for breach of employment contracts and collective bargaining agreements in violation of state and federal law. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE AGAINST THE PROPOSED RESOLUTION. The favorable vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal is required for passage. VOTING INFORMATION Under Pennsylvania law and the Corporation's Restated Articles of Incorporation and by-laws, the presence of a quorum is required to transact business at the annual meeting. A quorum is defined as the presence, either in person or by proxy, of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting. Votes withheld from director nominees, abstentions and broker-dealer non-votes will be counted in determining the presence of a quorum. 38 41 Assuming the presence of a quorum, (i) the eleven nominees for director receiving the highest number of votes will be elected directors, (ii) the affirmative vote of a majority of the common shares present, either in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote is required to approve the amendment to the Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors and the amendments to the 1993 Plan and (iii) the affirmative vote of a majority of all shares cast by the shareholders is required for the election of independent accountants and for the adoption of the shareholder proposals. Abstentions and broker-dealer non-votes are not counted in determining the number of votes cast in connection with the election of independent accountants or the adoption of the shareholder proposals. While abstentions and broker-dealer non-votes are not cast and therefore do not count either for or against the election of independent accountants or the shareholder proposals, they do have the practical effect of reducing the number of affirmative votes required to achieve majority in each of these matters. Abstentions are considered as present in determining the number of votes required to approve the amendment to the Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors and the amendments to the 1993 Plan. An affirmative vote of a majority of all shares present and entitled to vote is required to amend the Deferred Stock and Compensation Plan for Directors and to amend the 1993 Plan. Therefore, an abstention with respect to either of these amendments will have the same effect as a vote against such amendments. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL SUBMISSIONS To be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials relating to the 1996 Annual Meeting, shareholder proposals must be received at the principal executive offices of Westinghouse on or before November 12, 1995. 39 42 SOLICITATION OF PROXIES The solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of the Board of the Corporation. Solicitation by the Corporation will be by mail, except for any personal solicitation made orally or in writing by directors, officers and employees of Westinghouse. The cost of solicitation, including the cost of any such personal solicitation, will be paid by the Corporation. Westinghouse may request persons, such as brokers, nominees and fiduciaries, holding stock in their names to forward proxy materials to the beneficial owners and it will reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses incurred in doing so. In addition, Westinghouse has retained Georgeson & Company Inc., Wall Street Plaza, New York, New York 10005, for a fee of $12,000 plus incidental and related expenses, to assist in providing proxy materials to brokers, nominees, fiduciaries and individuals (other than the officers of the Corporation) holding sizable amounts of stock and in soliciting proxies from them. A shareholder giving a Proxy has the power to revoke the Proxy by notice to the Secretary of the Corporation. All Proxies will be voted if properly signed, received by the Secretary of the Corporation prior to the close of voting at the meeting and not revoked. As of the time of preparation of this proxy statement, the Board knows of no matter, other than those described in the foregoing paragraphs, that will be presented at the meeting. However, if any other matters properly come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof, the person or persons voting the Proxies will vote them in accordance with their best judgment. March 10, 1995 40 43 (This page intentionally left blank.) 41 44 EXHIBIT A DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND STOCK PLAN FOR DIRECTORS (as amended as of April 26, 1995) SECTION 1.

This authorization 44 47 may be increased from time to time by approval of the Board and by the shareholders of the Company if such shareholder approval is required. The Company shall at all times during the term of the Plan retain as authorized and unissued Stock at least the number of shares from time to time required under the provisions of the Plan, or otherwise assure itself of its ability to perform its obligations hereunder. 4.2 Other Shares of Stock. Any shares of Stock that are subject to a Common Stock Equivalent Award, a Stock Option Award or a Debenture and which are forfeited, any shares of Stock that for any other reason are not issued to a Director, and any shares of Stock tendered by a Director to pay the Exercise Price of a Stock Option shall automatically become available again for use under the Plan if Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act and interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or its Staff thereunder permit such share replenishment. 4.3 Adjustments Upon Changes in Stock. If there shall be any change in the Stock of the Company, through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, split up, dividend in kind or other change in the corporate structure or distribution to the shareholders, appropriate adjustments may be made by the Committee (or if the Company is not the surviving corporation in any such transaction, the board of directors of the surviving corporation) in the aggregate number and kind of shares subject to the Plan, and the number and kind of shares which may be issued under the Plan. Appropriate adjustments may also be made by the Committee in the terms of any awards or Debentures under the Plan to reflect such changes and to modify any other terms of outstanding awards on an equitable basis as the Committee in its discretion determines. SECTION 5. COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENT AWARDS 5.1 Grants of Common Stock Equivalent Awards. Common Stock Equivalents equal to 400 shares of Stock shall be granted automatically each year, immediately following the Annual Meeting (as described in the Company's By-laws) up to but not including the Annual Meeting held in 1995, to each Director elected at such meeting or then continuing to serve on the Board subsequent to such meeting. In addition, if a person is elected to the Board at any time other than at an Annual Meeting and prior to the Annual Meeting held in 1995, whether by action of the shareholders of the Company or the Board, such person upon becoming a Director shall be granted automatically (i) if such election shall occur after the Annual Meeting and prior to July 1, Common Stock Equivalents equal to 300 shares of Stock, (ii) if such election shall occur on or after July 1 and prior to October 1, Common Stock Equivalents equal to 200 shares of Stock, and (iii) if such election shall occur on or after October 1 and prior to January 1 of the following year, Common Stock Equivalents equal to 100 shares of Stock. All Common Stock Equivalents granted pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be adjusted as provided in Section 4.3. 5.2 Deferred Stock Account. A Deferred Stock Account shall be established for each Director elected prior to the Annual Meeting held in 1995. The Deferred Stock Account shall consist of compensation in the form of Common Stock Equivalents awarded to the Director hereunder by the Company plus Common Stock Equivalents credited to the Deferred Stock Account in respect of dividends and other distributions on the Stock pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 5.4. 45 48 5.3 Hypothetical Investment. Compensation awarded hereunder in the form of Common Stock Equivalents is assumed to be a hypothetical investment in shares of Stock, and will be adjusted to reflect stock dividends, splits and reclassifications and as otherwise set forth in Section 4.3. 5.4 Hypothetical Dividends. Dividends and other distributions on Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have been paid as if such Common Stock Equivalents were actual shares of Stock issued and outstanding on the respective record or distribution dates. Common Stock Equivalents shall be credited to the Deferred Stock Account in respect of cash dividends and any other securities or property issued on the Stock in connection with reclassifications, spinoffs and the like on the basis of the value of the dividend or other asset distributed and the value of the Common Stock Equivalents on the date of the announcement of the dividend or asset distribution, all at the same time and in the same amount as dividends or other distributions are paid or issued on the Stock. Fractional shares shall be credited to a Director's Deferred Stock Account cumulatively but the balance of shares of Common Stock Equivalents in a Director's Deferred Stock Account shall be rounded to the next highest whole share for any payment to such Director pursuant to Section 5.6 hereof. 5.5 Statement of Account. A statement will be sent to each Director as to the balance of his Deferred Stock Account at least once each calendar year. 5.6 Payment of Deferred Stock. Upon termination of services as a Director, the balance of the Director's Deferred Stock Account shall be paid to such director in Stock in January of the year following the year of termination of services as a Director on the basis of one share of Stock for each Common Stock Equivalent in such Director's Deferred Stock Account. 5.7 Payments to a Deceased Director's Estate. In the event of a Director's death before the balance of his Deferred Stock Account is fully paid to him, payment of the balance of the Director's Deferred Stock Account shall then be made to his estate in the time and manner selected by the Committee in the absence of a designation of a beneficiary pursuant to Section 5.8 hereof. The Committee may take into account the application of any duly appointed administrator or executor of a Director's estate and direct that the balance of the Director's Deferred Stock Account be paid to his estate in the manner requested by such application. 5.8 Designation of Beneficiary. A Director may designate a beneficiary in a form approved by the Committee. SECTION 6. DEFERRAL OF COMPENSATION 6.1 Amount of Deferral. A Director may elect to defer receipt of all or a specified portion of the cash annual retainers and/or cash meeting fees otherwise payable to the Director for serving on the Board or any committee thereof. 6.2 Manner of Electing Deferral. A Director shall make elections permitted hereunder by giving written notice to the Company in a form approved by the Committee. The notice shall include: (i) the percentage of 46 49 meeting fees and/or annual retainer to be deferred, which amount must be stated in whole increments of 5 percent; and (ii) the time as of which deferral is to commence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the election by a Director to participate in the Company's Deferral Program for Directors, which this Plan amends, shall continue in full force and effect with respect to this Plan without any action required to be taken by such Director and such election shall be deemed to be an election by a Director to defer such Director's cash compensation paid by the Company in respect of annual retainers and meeting fees. 6.3 Accounts. A Cash Account and a Deferred Debenture Account shall be established for each Director electing to defer hereunder. Each Cash Account shall be credited with the amounts deferred on the date such compensation is otherwise payable. Such deferred amounts shall accrue interest from time to time at a rate equal to the seven year U.S. Treasury Bond rate (beginning January 1, 1995, the ten year U.S. Treasury Bond rate) in effect the week prior to the regular January meeting of the Board (or, if no such meeting is held, the week prior to the first trading day of the New York Stock Exchange in February) in the year in respect of which such deferred amounts are earned until the last trading day of the New York Stock Exchange prior to the regular January meeting of the Board (or, if no such meeting is held, until the first trading day of February) in the year following the year in respect of which deferred amounts are earned, at which time such deferred amounts, including interest, shall be invested in Debentures and credited to the Deferred Debenture Account. Deferred amounts shall be credited to the Deferred Debenture Account only in $100 amounts. Fractional amounts of $100 shall remain in the Cash Account and continue to accrue interest. 6.4 Time for Electing Deferral. Any election to (i) defer cash annual retainer and/or cash meeting fees, (ii) alter the portion of such amounts deferred, or (iii) revoke an election to defer such amounts, must be made no later than six months prior to the time such compensation is earned by the Director or, if permitted by the rules under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, no later than six months prior to the time such deferred compensation is invested in Debentures and credited to the Deferred Debenture Account pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof. An election to commence a deferral may be made at any time in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.2. Any election so made shall remain in effect beginning six months from the date of election until the Director ceases to be a Director or six months from the date the Director elects in writing to change his election. 6.5 Payment of Deferred Amounts. Payments from a Deferred Debenture Account shall be made in five consecutive annual installments beginning in the January following the Director's termination of service. Payments from a Deferred Debenture Account shall consist of accumulated interest on the Debentures (which amount shall only be payable in cash) plus the greater value of (i) the face value of the Debentures or (ii) the shares of Stock into which the Debentures are convertible. In the event the value of the payment is determined by the amount referred to in clause (i), payment shall be made in cash. In the event such value is determined by clause (ii), such payment shall be made in Stock, other than the value of fractional shares which will be paid in cash. 6.6 Payments to a Deceased Director's Estate. In the event of a Director's death before the balance of his Cash Account or Deferred Debenture Account is fully paid to him, payment of the balance of the Cash Account or 47 50 Deferred Debenture Account shall then be made to his estate in the time and manner selected by the Committee in the absence of a designation of a beneficiary pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof. The Committee may take into account the application of any duly appointed administrator or executor of a Director's estate and direct that the balance of the Director's Cash Account or Deferred Debenture Account be paid to his estate in the manner requested by such application. 6.7 Designation of Beneficiary. A Director may designate a beneficiary in a form approved by the Committee. SECTION 7. STOCK OPTION AWARDS 7.1 Grants of Stock Option Awards. (a) Stock Options for 3,000 shares of Stock shall be granted automatically each year, immediately following the Annual Meeting (as described in the Company's By-laws), beginning with the Annual Meeting held in 1995, to each Director elected at such meeting or then continuing to serve on the Board subsequent to such meeting. In addition, if a person is elected to the Board at any time after the Annual Meeting held in 1995 and other than at an Annual Meeting, whether by action of the shareholders of the Company or the Board, such person upon becoming a Director shall be granted automatically (i) if such election shall occur after the Annual Meeting and prior to July 1, Stock Options for 2,250 shares of Stock, (ii) if such election shall occur on or after July 1 and prior to October 1, Stock Options for 1,500 shares of Stock, and (iii) if such election shall occur on or after October 1 and prior to January 1 of the following year, Stock Options for 750 shares of Stock.
