Item 4. Description of Securities. Not applicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. Not applicable. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may 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, by reason of the fact that he or she is 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. A corporation may indemnify any such person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person identified acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification may be made in respect to 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 in which such action or suit was brought or another court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity therefor. Section 78.751 further provides that to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith. The Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the "Charter"), provide that the Registrant shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding of the type described above by reason of the fact that he or she is or was or has agreed to become a director or officer of the Registrant, or is serving at the request of the Registrant as director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, provided that with respect to any action, suit or proceeding initiated by a director or officer, the Registrant shall indemnify such director or officer only if the action, suit or proceeding was authorized by the Registrant's Board of Directors or is a suit for enforcement of rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses in accordance with the procedure therefor prescribed in the Charter. The Charter also provides that the expenses of directors and officers incurred as a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, shall be paid by the Registrant as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, provided that if applicable law so requires, the advance payment of expenses shall be made only upon receipt by the Registrant of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay all amounts so advanced in the event it is ultimately determined by a final decision, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under the Charter. The Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements with each of its directors and officers pursuant to which it has indemnified them against expenses incurred in connection with any claims made against them as a result of any act, omission, neglect or breach of duty committed or suffered while acting as a director or officer of the Registrant, or while serving at the request of the Registrant as a director of officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise. These Indemnification Agreements do not obligate the Registrant to make any payment in connection with a claim against a director or officer to the extent that: (a) payment is made under an insurance policy, (b) the director or officer is otherwise indemnified, (c) the claim is based upon the director or officer gaining any improper personal profit or advantage to which he or she is not legally entitled, (d) the claim is for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the director or officer of securities of the Registrant within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or (e) the claim is brought about or contributed to by the dishonesty of the director or officer, but only if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that he or she committed acts of active and deliberate dishonesty, with actual dishonest purpose and intent, which acts were material to the cause of action so adjudicated. The Indemnification Agreements provide that the costs and expenses incurred by directors and officers in defending or investigating any action, suit, proceeding or investigation will be paid by the Registrant in advance of the final disposition of the matter upon receipt of a written undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay any such amounts if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification under the Indemnification Agreement. No such advance will be made by the Registrant, however, if, within 60 days of a request for such an advance, a determination is reasonably made by the Board of Directors or independent legal counsel, based upon the facts known at the time, that it is more likely than not it will ultimately be determined that the director or officer is not entitled to indemnification under the Indemnification Agreement. The Registrant currently maintains an insurance policy which, within the limits and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, covers certain expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by directors and officers in connection with or as a consequence of certain actions, suits or proceedings that may be brought against them as a result of an act or omission committed or suffered while acting as a director or officer of the Registrant. Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed. Not applicable. Item 8. Exhibits. 4.1 CSC Outsourcing, Inc.

CUTW Hourly Savings Plan, and any amendments thereto to the Internal Revenue Service in a timely manner and to make all changes required by the Internal Revenue Service in order to qualify the Plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. Item 9. Undertakings. (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement; (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post- effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(b) The "Alternative Test": If the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants does not meet the test described in Section 3.08(a), the following "alternative test" shall be applied: the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants shall not exceed the lesser of: (i) The Actual Deferral Percentage for all Non-Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants plus two percentage points; or (ii) The Actual Deferral Percentage for all Non-Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants multiplied by 2.0. (c) If the Employee Benefits Committee determines that the limitations described in this Section 3.08 have been exceeded in any Plan Year, the Employee Benefits Committee shall determine the amount of "Excess Contributions" for each Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee in the following manner: The Actual Deferral Ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest Actual Deferral Ratio shall be reduced to the extent necessary to meet the Actual Deferral Percentage test or to cause such Actual Deferral Ratio to equal the Actual Deferral Ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest Actual Deferral Ratio. This process will be repeated until the Actual Deferral Percentage test is passed. (d) If, at the end of the Plan Year, a Participant or class of Participants has Excess Contributions (determined in accordance with Section 3.08(c)), the Employee Benefits Committee may elect, at its discretion, to pursue one or more of the following courses of action: (i) The Employee Benefits Committee may cause to be distributed any or all Excess Contributions, together with Earnings thereon, to the Participant. Such distribution shall be made before the close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Excess Contributions were made and, to the extent practicable, within 2 1/2 months of the close of the Plan Year in which the Excess Contributions were made. However, any Excess Contributions for any Plan Year shall be reduced by any Savings Plus Allotments previously returned to the Participant under Section 3.07 for that Plan Year. In the event any Savings Plus Allotments returned under this Section 3.08 were matched by Company Matching Contributions, such corresponding Company Matching Contributions, together with Earnings thereon, shall be forfeited and used to reduce future Company Matching Contributions. (ii) The Company may make Qualified Nonelective Contributions on behalf of Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees, or on behalf of a group of Participants which includes all Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees, which contributions shall be (A) credited to the Savings Plus Accounts (or such separate accounts or subaccounts as the Employee Benefits Committee may deem necessary to establish) of the affected Participants and (B) included in the calculation of the Actual Deferral Ratio of the affected Participants. (e) The Employee Benefits Committee may implement rules limiting Savings Plus Allotments that may be made on behalf of any Participant or class of Participants so that the provisions of this Section 3.08 are satisfied. 3.09 Additional Discrimination Testing Provisions (a) If any Highly Compensated Employee is either (i) a 5% owner, or (ii) one of the 10 highest-paid Highly Compensated Employees, then any benefit or contribution paid to or made on behalf of any member of his "family" shall be deemed paid to or made on behalf of such Highly Compensated Employee for purposes of Section 3.08 to the extent required under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate under Sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code. The contributions required to be aggregated pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be disregarded in determining the Actual Deferral Percentage and Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of Non-Highly Compensated Employees for purposes of Section 3.08. Any return of Excess Contributions required under Section 3.08 with respect to the family group shall be made by allocating the Excess Contributions among the Highly Compensated Employee and the members of his family in proportion to the contributions made by or on behalf of each family member that is combined. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "family" means, with respect to any Employee, such Employee's spouse, lineal ascendants and descendants, and spouses of such lineal ascendants and descendants. (b) If any Highly Compensated Employee is a participant of another qualified plan of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, other than an employee stock ownership plan as described in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code, under which deferred cash contributions or matching contributions are made on behalf of the Highly Compensated Employee or under which the Highly Compensated Employee makes after-tax contributions, the Employee Benefits Committee shall implement rules, which shall be uniformly applicable to all Employees similarly situated, to take into account all such contributions for the Highly Compensated Employee under all such plans in applying the limitations of Section 3.08. 3.10 Maximum Annual Additions Limitation In accordance with the provisions of Appendix A attached hereto, the "Annual Additions" (as defined in Appendix A) to a Participant's Accounts for any Plan Year, when added to the Participant's Annual Additions for that Plan Year under any other qualified plan of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, shall not exceed an amount which is equal to the lesser of (i) 25% of his Section 415 Compensation for that Plan Year or (ii) $30,000 multiplied by the Adjustment Factor. 3.11 Return of Contributions Except as provided below, at no time shall any contributions (or portions thereof) revert to the Employer prior to discharge of all liabilities under the Plan. (a) The Employer's contributions to the Plan are conditioned upon Section 404 of the Code. If all or part of the Employer's deductions under Section 404 of the Code for contributions to the Plan are disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the portion of the contributions to which that disallowance applies shall be returned to the Employer without interest but reduced by any investment loss attributable to those contributions. The return shall be made within one year after the disallowance of the deduction. (b) The Employer may recover, without interest, the amount of its contributions to the Plan made on account of a mistake of fact, reduced by any investment loss attributable to those contributions, if recovery is made within one year after the date of those contributions. (c) In the event that Savings Plus Allotments made under Section 3.01 are returned to the Employer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.11, the elections to reduce Compensation which were made by Participants on whose behalf those contributions were made shall be void retroactively to the beginning of the period for which those contributions were made. The Savings Plus Allotments so returned shall be distributed in cash to those Participants for whom those contributions were made. Article 4 Investment of Contributions 4.01 Investment of Participants' Prior Plan Accounts (a) As of the Effective Date, a Participant may elect to allocate his "Account" under the Prior Plan among the Investment Funds in multiples of 1% by giving such advance notice as may be required by the Employee Benefits Committee. (b) If a Participant fails to make the election described in Section 4.01(a), his "Account" under the Prior Plan shall be invested in the Investment Fund which the Employee Benefits Committee determines to be the most conservative of the Investment Funds. 4.02 Investment of Participants' Allotments (a) A Participant may elect to invest his Allotments in one or more Investment Funds by delivering an election form to the Employee Benefits Committee, in accordance with rules established by the Employee Benefits Committee and in accordance with the following: (i) Investment among the Investment Funds shall be in 1% increments; and (ii) In the event that the Participant fails to make an investment election with respect to his Allotments, such Allotments shall be invested in the Investment Fund which the Employee Benefits Committee determines to be the most conservative of the Investment Funds. (b) When a Participant originally makes a Rollover Contribution, he shall generally make a separate investment election with respect to such contribution. If he fails to make such an election at the time of contribution, his Rollover Contribution shall be invested in accordance with his most recent election applicable to his Allotments or, if none, in accordance with Section 4.02(a)(ii). 4.03 Investment Changes (a) By delivering an election form to the Employer, in accordance with rules established by the Employee Benefits Committee, a Participant may elect, in accordance with Section 4.02, to change his election with respect to the investment of subsequent Allotments to the Plan as of the first day of the first payroll period in the month, or the second month if the Participant's election form is not filed within the time prescribed by the Employee Benefits Committee, following the month in which the Participant files his election form with the Employer. (b) By delivering an election form to the Employee Benefits Committee, in accordance with rules established by the Employee Benefits Committee, a Participant may elect to reallocate his Accounts (except for his Matching Contributions Account) among one or more Investment Funds in multiples of 1% effective as of the first day of the month, or the second month if the Participant's election form is not filed within the time prescribed by the Employee Benefits Committee, following the month in which the Participant files his election form with the Employer. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.04(b), a Participant may elect to reallocate his Matching Contributions Account among one or more Investment Funds in multiples of 1% effective as of the first day of the month, or the second month if the Participant's election form is not filed within the time prescribed by the Employee Benefits Committee, following the month in which the Participant files his election form with the Employer, provided that: (i) He has attained age 59 1/2; or (ii) He has attained age 55 and has participated in the Plan and/or the Prior Plan for at least five years. 4.04 Responsibility for Investments Each Participant is solely responsible for the selection of his investment options. The Trustee, the Employee Benefits Committee, the Company and the officers, supervisors and other employees of the Company are not empowered to advise a Participant as to the manner in which his Accounts shall be invested. The fact that an Investment Fund is available to Participants for investment under the Plan shall not be construed as a recommendation for investment in that Investment Fund. Article 5 Valuation of Accounts 5.01 Valuation of the Investment Funds The Trustee shall value the Investment Funds on a monthly basis. On each Valuation Date there shall be allocated to the Accounts of each Participant his proportionate share of the increase or decrease in the fair market value of his Accounts in each of the Investment Funds, in a manner determined by the Employee Benefits Committee. Whenever an event requires a determination of the value of the Participant's Accounts, the value shall be computed as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately following the date of determination, subject to the provisions of Section 5.02. 5.02 Discretionary Power of the Employee Benefits Committee The Employee Benefits Committee reserves the right to change from time to time the procedures used in valuing the Accounts or crediting (or debiting) the Accounts if it feels, after due deliberation and upon the advice of counsel and/or the current recordkeeper, that such an action is justified in that it results in a more accurate reflection of the fair market value of assets. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Article and such new administrative procedures, those new administrative procedures shall prevail. 5.03 Statement of Accounts Each Participant shall be furnished, at least once per year, with a statement setting forth the value of his Accounts and the Vested Portion of his Accounts. Article 6 Vested Portion of Accounts 6.01 Savings Plus, Regular Savings, Matching Contributions and Rollover Contributions Accounts.

(ii) The distribution is necessary to satisfy the Participant's immediate and heavy financial need (including taxes and penalties reasonably anticipated from the distribution). To meet this requirement, the Participant shall submit to the Employer a signed statement indicating that he does not have other resources reasonably available to satisfy the need (and the Employer may reasonably rely on such signed representation). The following must not be available to the Participant in order for this condition to be satisfied: (A) Reimbursement or compensation through insurance or otherwise; (B) Other assets of the Participant available for liquidation, provided that the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause an immediate and heavy financial need; (C) Continuation of Allotments under the Plan (such contributions must be discontinued if necessary to meet the need); (D) Distributions or nontaxable loans from any qualified plan or the opportunity to borrow from commercial sources on reasonable commercial terms; or (E) Assets of the Participant's spouse or minor children which are reasonably available to the Participant to meet the immediate and heavy financial need. 7.05 Participant Loans (a) A Participant who is an Eligible Employee may borrow, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.05 and the loan rules that are considered to be part of the Plan, an amount from the Plan, which when added to the outstanding balance of all other loans to the Participant from the Plan and all other qualified plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, does not exceed the lesser of: (i) $50,000 reduced by the excess, if any, of (A) the highest outstanding balance of loans to the Participant from the Plan and all other qualified plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer during the one-year period ending on the day before the new loan is granted, over (B) the outstanding balance of such loans to the Participant on the day the new loan is granted; or (ii) 50% of the Participant's Vested Portion of his Accounts determined as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately preceding the day before the new loan is granted.

All principal and interest loan repayments made by the Participant shall be invested in the Investment Funds then designated by the Participant in accordance with Section 4.02. The investment gain or loss of the Loan Fund (including any gain or loss attributable to repayments or default) shall not be included in the calculation or allocation of the increase or decrease in the fair market value of the other assets of the Plan. The entire gain or loss of the Loan Fund shall be allocated to the Accounts of the Participant. (f) All loans shall become due and payable as of (i) the Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately following the date the Participant ceases to be an Employee, or (ii) the date the Plan is terminated. (g) All loans shall be treated as in default and shall become immediately due and payable if the Participant's repayment is more than 90 days delinquent.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.03(a), if a Participant terminates employment with his Employer due to Disability or after he is eligible for an immediate retirement benefit under the CSC Outsourcing Inc.

Such annuity shall provide a monthly pension for the life of both the Participant and the spouse of the Participant. If the Participant dies first, the monthly pension payable to the Participant's spouse shall be equal to 50% of the monthly pension payable to the Participant. (b) Unless an unmarried Participant elects otherwise, the Vested Portion of his Accounts shall be payable in the form of a single life annuity. (c) The Employer shall furnish to each Participant (or Beneficiary) no less than 30 days and no more than 90 days before the Participant's annuity commencement date, a written explanation in nontechnical language of the terms and conditions of the annuity provided under this Section 8.04, the financial effect upon the Participant (or Beneficiary) of making an election under this Section 8.04 to receive an annuity in lieu of a single lump sum payment, the requirement for Spousal Consent (where applicable), and the right of the Participant (or Beneficiary) to make and to revoke an election of an annuity form of benefit. An election of an annuity form of benefit shall be made on a form provided by the Employer, and may be made after the information described in this Section 8.04(d) is furnished to the Participant (or Beneficiary) and during the 90-day election period preceding the Participant's (or Beneficiary's) annuity commencement date. (d) An election of an annuity form of benefit may be revoked on a form provided by the Employer, and subsequent elections and revocations may be made at any time and from time to time during the applicable election period. An election of an annuity form of benefit shall be effective on the Participant's (or Beneficiary's) annuity commencement date. A revocation of any election shall be effective when the completed form is filed with the Employer. If a Participant who has elected an annuity form of benefit dies before the date the election becomes effective, the election shall be revoked. (e) If a Participant elects an annuity form of benefit, the Employer shall direct the Trustee to provide the annuity form of benefit by purchasing a single premium annuity contract from an insurance company. Such annuity contract may either be held by the Trustee as owner or as a non-transferable annuity contract which may be distributed to the Participant, his surviving spouse or Beneficiary in complete satisfaction of the benefits above provided and in full discharge of all liability of the Employer and Trustee hereunder. 8.05 Method of Payment for Eligible Rollover Distributions (a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a Distributee is entitled to receive an Eligible Rollover Distribution which exceeds $200, the Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Employee Benefits Committee, and in accordance with this Section 8.05, to have his Eligible Rollover Distribution paid in accordance with one of the following methods: (i) All of the Eligible Rollover distribution shall be paid directly to the Distributee; (ii) All of the Eligible Rollover Distribution shall be paid as a Direct Rollover to the Eligible Retirement Plan designated by the Distributee; or (iii) The portion of the Eligible Rollover Distribution designated by the Participant, which portion shall be at least $500, shall be paid as a Direct Rollover to the Eligible Retirement Plan designated by the Distributee and the balance of the Eligible Rollover Distribution shall be paid directly to the Distributee.

In the event the Distributee does not return the signed election form by his Plan benefit commencement date, he shall be deemed to have elected the method of payment described in Section 8.05(a)(i). (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.05(b), distributions paid in accordance with Section 8.05(a) may commence less than 30 days after the material described in Section 8.05(b) is given to the Distributee provided that: (i) The Distributee is notified that he has the right to a period of at least 30 days after receipt of the material to consider whether or not to elect a distribution; and (ii) After receipt of such notification, he affirmatively elects to receive a distribution. (d) The following definitions apply to the terms used in this Section 8.05: (i) "Eligible Rollover Distribution" means any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include: (A) Any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee's designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; (B) Any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; (C) The portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities); and (D) Any other type of distribution that the Internal Revenue Service announces (pursuant to regulation, notice or otherwise) is not an Eligible Rollover Distribution pursuant to Section 402(c) of the Code. (ii) "Eligible Retirement Plan" means an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, that accepts the Distributee's Eligible Rollover Distribution. However, in the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to the surviving spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity. (iii) "Distributee" includes an Employee or former Employee. In addition, the Employee's or former Employee's surviving spouse and the Employee's or former Employee's spouse or former spouse who is the "alternate payee," as defined in Section 414(p)(8) of the Code, pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order are Distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse. (iv) "Direct Rollover" means a payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee. 8.06 Timing of Distribution (a) In the event that the value of the Vested Portion of the Participant's Accounts does not exceed $3,500 as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately following the Participant's termination of employment, distribution or commencement of distribution of the Vested Portion of the Participant's Accounts shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the Participant's termination of employment. (b) In the event that the value of the Vested Portion of the Participant's Accounts is more than $3,500 as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately following the Participant's termination of employment, payment of his distribution shall automatically be delayed to the date that the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may, in accordance with such procedures as the Employee Benefits Committee prescribes, elect to have the distribution of the Vested Portion of his Accounts made or commence as of any Valuation Date coincident with or following his termination of employment and coincident with or before the date that the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age. (c) Upon the Participant's death prior to commencement of benefits, his Beneficiary may elect to commence distribution as soon as administratively feasible after any Valuation Date that next follows the Participant's date of death but in no event later than either Section 8.06(c)(i) or 8.06(c)(ii): (i) If the Beneficiary is not the Participant's spouse, the December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant dies; or (ii) If the Beneficiary is the Participant's spouse, the later of the December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age 70 1/2 or the December 31 following the calendar year in which the Participant dies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Participant has no surviving spouse and no designated Beneficiary, distribution of the Participant's Accounts must be made on or before the December 31 of the fifth full calendar year following the Participant's death. (d) (i) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, unless the Participant elects otherwise, in no event can distribution of the Vested Portion of a Participant's Accounts occur later than 60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which occurs the later of (i) the Participant's termination of employment, or (ii) the 65th anniversary of the Participant's birth. (ii) In no event shall distribution of a Participant's Accounts begin later than the April 1 following the calendar year in which he attains age seventy and one-half (70-1/2).

(e) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, all Plan distributions shall conform to the regulations issued under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including the incidental death benefit provisions of Section 401(a)(9)(G) of the Code. Further, such regulations shall override any Plan provision that is inconsistent with Section 401(a)(9) of the Code. 8.07 Status of Accounts Pending Distribution In the event that distribution of the Vested Portion of a Participant's Accounts are delayed in accordance with Section 8.06, such Accounts shall be invested in the Investment Funds last designated by the Participant in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03. A Participant, or Beneficiary in the event of the Participant's death, may elect to reallocate the Participant's Accounts among the Investment Funds, in multiples of 1%, in accordance with Section 4.03(b).

(d) The Employee Benefits Committee shall act on each request for a review within 60 days after receipt, unless special circumstances require further time for processing and the applicant is advised of the extension. In no event shall the decision on review be rendered more than 120 days after the Employee Benefits Committee receives the request for a review. The Employee Benefits Committee shall give prompt written notice of its decision to the applicant. In the event that the Employee Benefits Committee confirms the denial of the application for benefits in whole or in part, the notice shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant, the specific reasons for the decision and specific references to the provisions of the Plan on which the decision is based. (e) No legal action for benefits under the Plan shall be brought unless and until the claimant (i) has submitted a written application for benefits in accordance with paragraph (a), (ii) has been notified by the Employee Benefits Committee that the application is denied, (iii) has filed a written request for a review of the application in accordance with paragraph (c) and (iv) has been notified in writing that the Employee Benefits Committee has affirmed the denial of the application; provided, however, that legal action may be brought after the Employee Benefits Committee has failed to take any action on the claim within the time prescribed by paragraphs (b) and (d) above. Article 10. Management of Funds 10.01 The Trustee All the funds of the Plan shall be held in the Trust by a Trustee appointed from time to time by the Company under a trust instrument adopted, or as amended, by the Company for use in providing the benefits of the Plan and paying its expenses not paid directly by an Employer. No Employer shall have any liability for the payment of benefits under the Plan nor for the administration of the Trust held by the Trustee. 10.02 Exclusive Benefit Rule Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no part of the corpus or income of the funds of the Plan shall be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and other persons entitled to benefits under the Plan, and paying Plan expenses not otherwise paid by the Employer, before the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to them. No person shall have any interest in or right to any part of the earnings of the Trust, or any right in, or to, any part of the assets held under the Plan, except as and to the extent expressly provided in the Plan. 10.03 Appointment of Investment Manager The Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine the investment policy for the Plan. However, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint one or more Investment Managers to manage the assets of the Plan (including the power to acquire and dispose of all or part of such assets) as the Company shall designate. In that event, the authority over and responsibility for the management of the assets so designated shall be the sole responsibility of that Investment Manager. Article 11. Amendment, Merger and Termination 11.01 Amendment of the Plan The Company, by action of its Board of Directors, may at any time and from time to time, and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate, amend in whole or in part any or all of the provisions of the Plan. However, no amendment shall make it possible for any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled to benefits under the Plan, before the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to them. No amendment shall be made which has the effect of decreasing the Accrued Pension of any Participant or of reducing the nonforfeitable percentage of the Accrued Pension of a Participant below the nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan as in effect on the date on which the amendment is adopted or, if later, the date on which the amendment becomes effective. No amendment shall be made which affects the rights, duties or responsibilities of the Trustee unless the Trustee provides written consent to such amendment. 11.02 Merger or Consolidation The Company may, in its sole discretion, merge this Plan with another qualified plan, subject to any applicable legal requirements. However, the Plan may not be merged or consolidated with, and its assets or liabilities may not be transferred to, any other plan unless each person entitled to benefits under the Plan would, if the resulting plan were then terminated, receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer if the Plan had then terminated. 11.03 Termination of the Plan The Company, by action of its Board of Directors, may terminate the Plan or completely discontinue contributions under the Plan for any reason at any time. In case of termination or partial termination of the Plan, or complete discontinuance of Company contributions to the Plan, the rights of affected Participants to their Accounts under the Plan as of the date of the termination or discontinuance shall be nonforfeitable. The total amount in each Participant's Accounts shall be distributed, as the Employee Benefits Committee shall direct, to the Participant or for the Participant's benefit or held in trust for the Participant's benefit. Article 12. General Provisions 12.01 Nonalienation; Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (a) Except as required by any applicable law, no benefit under the Plan shall in any manner be anticipated, assigned or alienated, and any attempt to do so shall be void. However, payment shall be made in accordance with the provisions of any Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (b) An immediate lump sum payment, which is the Actuarial Equivalent of the series of payments provided for in a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, shall be made in lieu of the series of payments if the value of the lump sum payment is $3,500 or less. 12.02 Conditions of Employment Not Affected by Plan The establishment of the Plan shall not confer any legal rights upon any Employee or other person for a continuation of employment, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Employer (which right is hereby reserved) to discharge any Employee and to treat him without regard to the effect which that treatment might have upon him as a Participant or potential Participant of the Plan. 12.03 Facility of Payment (a) If the Employee Benefits Committee finds that a Participant or other person entitled to a benefit is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, the Employee Benefits Committee may direct that any benefit due him, unless a claim has been made for the benefit by a duly appointed legal representative, be paid to his spouse, a child, a parent or other blood relative, or to a person with whom he resides. Any payment so made shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Plan for that benefit. (b) If the Employee Benefits Committee finds that a Participant or other person entitled to a benefit is a minor, the Employee Benefits Committee may direct that any benefit due him, unless a claim has been made for the benefit by a duly appointed legal representative, be paid in the following order of preference: (i) to the minor's custodial parent(s); (ii) if no custodial parent of the minor is then living, to a custodian selected by the Employee Benefits Committee to hold the funds for the minor under the Uniform Transfers or Gifts to Minors Act in effect in the jurisdiction in which the minor resides; (iii) if the Employee Benefits Committee decides not to select a custodian pursuant to subparagraph (ii), to the duly appointed and currently acting guardian of the estate of the minor; or (iv) if no guardian of the estate of the minor is duly appointed or currently acting within 60 days of the date the amount becomes payable, to the court having jurisdiction over the estate of the minor. 12.04 Information (a) Each Participant, Beneficiary or other person entitled to a benefit, before any benefit shall be payable to him or on his account under the Plan, shall file with the Employer the information that it shall require to establish his rights and benefits under the Plan. (b) If a Participant in his application for retirement income, or in response to any request by the Employer or Employee Benefits Committee for information, makes any statement which is erroneous or omits any material fact or fails before receiving his first payment to correct any information that he previously incorrectly furnished to the Employer or the Employee Benefits Committee for its records, the amount of his Pension shall be adjusted on the basis of the current facts, and the amount of any overpayment or underpayment made to the Participant shall be deducted from, or added to, his next succeeding payments as the Employee Benefits Committee shall direct. 12.05 Proof of Death and Right of Beneficiary or Other Person The Employer may require and rely upon such proof of death and such evidence of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the value of the Accounts of a deceased Participant as the Employee Benefits Committee may deem proper, and its determination of death and of the right of that Beneficiary or other person to receive payment shall be conclusive. 12.06 Failure to Locate Recipient In the event that the Employee Benefits Committee is unable to locate a Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to payment under the Plan within 5 years from the date such payment was to have been made, the amount to which such Participant or Beneficiary was entitled shall be declared a forfeiture and shall be used to reduce future Employer contributions to the Plan. If the Participant or Beneficiary is later located, the benefit which was previously forfeited hereunder shall be restored by means of an additional Employer contribution to the Plan, if necessary. 12.07 Action by the Board of Directors Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board of Directors under the Plan shall be by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors at a meeting held either in person or by telephone or other electronic means, or by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting. The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, appoint the Executive Committee or another Committee to take those actions on its behalf which are the responsibility of the Board of Directors in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 12.08 Construction (a) The Plan shall be construed, regulated and administered pursuant to the laws of the State of California, except where ERISA controls. (b) If any provision of this instrument is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully effective. (c) The use of the masculine pronoun in this Plan shall include the feminine pronoun wherever appropriate, and vice versa. (d) The use of the singular form of a word in this Plan shall include the plural form wherever appropriate, and vice versa. (e) The titles and headings of the Articles and Sections in this Plan are for convenience only. In the case of ambiguity or inconsistency, the text rather than the titles or headings shall control. Execution of the Plan CSC Outsourcing, Inc. CUTW Hourly Savings Plan is hereby executed this 2nd day of February, 1996. /s/ HAYWARD D. FISK (Signature) Vice President (Title) Appendix A. Maximum Annual Additions Limitation Section 3.10 of the Plan shall be construed in accordance with this Appendix A. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, words and phrases used in this Appendix A shall have the same meanings that are assigned to them under the Plan. The Plan Year shall be considered a "limitation year" for purposes of this Appendix A and Section 415 of the Code. A.01 Definitions The following words and phrases, when used in this Appendix A with an initial capital letter, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise: "Annual Additions" on behalf of a Participant under the Plan or any other qualified plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer for the Plan Year shall not include loan repayments by the Participant or contributions to the Participant's Rollover Contributions Account but shall include: (a) The total contributions, including Savings Plus Allotments and Company Matching Contributions, made on behalf of the Participant by the Employer and all Affiliated Employers under this Plan or any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan; (b) With respect to limitation years beginning before 1987, the lesser of the part of the Participant's contributions in excess of 6% of his Section 415 Compensation or one-half of his total contributions to the Plan or any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; (c) With respect to Limitation Years beginning after 1986, all of the Participant's contributions to this Plan or any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; (d) Forfeitures, if applicable, that have been allocated to the Participant's Accounts under this Plan or his accounts under any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; (e) Voluntary or mandatory contributions made by the Participant under the CSC Outsourcing Inc. CUTW Hourly Savings Plan or another qualified Defined Benefit Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; and (f) Contributions made on behalf of the Participant to an "individual medical benefit account" under a pension or annuity plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, as described, and to the extent required, under Section 415(l) of the Code. "Defined Benefit Plan" means any qualified pension plan which is not a Defined Contribution Plan; however, in the case of a Defined Benefit Plan which provides a benefit which is based partly on the balance of the separate account of a participant, that plan shall be treated as a Defined Contribution Plan to the extent benefits are based on the separate account of a participant and as a Defined Benefit Plan with respect to the remaining portion of the benefits under the plan. "Defined Benefit Plan Fraction" for any limitation year is a fraction - (a) The numerator of which is the projected annual benefit of the Participant (determined as of the close of the limitation year) under all Defined Benefit Plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; and (b) The denominator of which is the lesser of (i) or (ii) below: (i) The product of 1.25 multiplied by the defined benefit plan dollar limitation under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code (multiplied by the Adjustment Factor) in effect for such limitation year; or (ii) The product of 1.4 multiplied by an amount that is 100% of the Participant's average Section 415 Compensation for the three consecutive years in which his Section 415 Compensation was the highest. "Defined Contribution Plan" means any qualified pension plan which provides for an individual account for each participant and for benefits based solely upon the amount contributed to the participant's account, and any income, expenses, gains and losses, and any forfeitures of accounts of other participants which may be allocated to that participant's accounts, subject to the limitations described in the definition of "Defined Benefit Plan" above. "Defined Contribution Plan Fraction" for any limitation year is a fraction -- (a) The numerator of which is the sum of the Annual Additions made by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer on behalf of the Participant for such limitation year and all prior limitation years; and (b) The denominator of which is the sum of the lesser of (i) or (ii) below determined for such limitation year and for each prior year of service with the Employer or an Affiliated Employer: (i) The product of 1.25 multiplied by the defined contribution plan dollar limitation under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code (multiplied by the Adjustment Factor); or (ii) The product of 1.4 multiplied by an amount equal to 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for such year. At the direction of the Employee Benefits Committee, the portion of the denominator of that fraction with respect to limitation years ending before 1983 shall be computed as the denominator for the limitation year ending in 1982, as determined under the law as then in effect, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the lesser of: (A) $51,875; or (B) 1.4 multiplied by 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for the limitation year ending in 1981; and the denominator of which is the lesser of: (A) $41,500; or (B) 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for that limitation year. A.02 Maximum Annual Additions Limitation If the Annual Additions to a Participant's Accounts for any Plan Year would otherwise exceed the limitation set forth in Section 3.10, the excess Annual Additions to such Participant's Accounts for such Plan Year shall be reduced in the following order: (i) The Participant's unmatched Regular Savings Allotments shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant. (ii) Next, the Participant's unmatched Savings Plus Allotments shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant. (iii) Next, the Participant's matched Regular Savings Allotments and corresponding Company Matching Contributions shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction attributable to the Participant's matched Regular Savings Allotments, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant and the amount attributable to the Company Matching Contributions shall be applied to reduce subsequent Company Matching Contributions. (iv) Next, the Participant's matched Savings Plus Allotments and corresponding Company Matching Contributions shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction attributable to the Participant's matched Savings Plus Allotments, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant and the amount attributable to the Company Matching Contributions shall be applied to reduce subsequent Company Matching Contributions. A.03 Participant in a Defined Benefit Plan (a) If a Participant under this Plan has at any time participated in a Defined Benefit Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, the sum of the Participant's Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and Defined Contribution Plan Fraction shall not exceed 1.0. (b) In the event the sum of a Participant's Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and Defined Contribution Plan Fraction exceeds 1.0, his benefits under, and contributions to, all plans shall be accomplished by first reducing the benefits otherwise payable to the Participant under the CSC Outsourcing Inc. CUTW Hourly Retirement Plan or any other Defined Benefit Plan in which the Participant participates (in the manner and priority set forth in such plans), and second by reducing the contributions made on behalf of the Participant to the Plan or any other Defined Contribution Plans in which the Participant participates in such priority as shall be determined by the Employee Benefits Committee for the Plan and the administrators of such other plans. The necessary reductions may, however, be made in a different manner and priority pursuant to the agreement of the Employee Benefits Committee for the Plan and the administrators of all other plans in which the Participant participates.

(b) The "Alternative Test": If the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants does not meet the test described in Section 3.08(a), the following "alternative test" shall be applied: the Actual Deferral Percentage for Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants shall not exceed the lesser of: (i) The Actual Deferral Percentage for all Non-Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants plus two percentage points; or (ii) The Actual Deferral Percentage for all Non-Highly Compensated Employees who are Participants or eligible to become Participants multiplied by 2.0. (c) If the Employee Benefits Committee determines that the limitations described in this Section 3.08 have been exceeded in any Plan Year, the Employee Benefits Committee shall determine the amount of "Excess Contributions" for each Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee in the following manner: The Actual Deferral Ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest Actual Deferral Ratio shall be reduced to the extent necessary to meet the Actual Deferral Percentage test or to cause such Actual Deferral Ratio to equal the Actual Deferral Ratio of the Highly Compensated Employee with the next highest Actual Deferral Ratio. This process will be repeated until the Actual Deferral Percentage test is passed.

Such distribution shall be made before the close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Excess Contributions were made and, to the extent practicable, within 2 1/2 months of the close of the Plan Year in which the Excess Contributions were made. However, any Excess Contributions for any Plan Year shall be reduced by any Savings Plus Allotments previously returned to the Participant under Section 3.07 for that Plan Year. In the event any Savings Plus Allotments returned under this Section 3.08 were matched by Company Matching Contributions, such corresponding Company Matching Contributions, together with Earnings thereon, shall be forfeited and used to reduce future Company Matching Contributions. (ii) The Company may make Qualified Nonelective Contributions on behalf of Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees, or on behalf of a group of Participants which includes all Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees, which contributions shall be (A) credited to the Savings Plus Accounts (or such separate accounts or subaccounts as the Employee Benefits Committee may deem necessary to establish) of the affected Participants and (B) included in the calculation of the Actual Deferral Ratio of the affected Participants. (e) The Employee Benefits Committee may implement rules limiting Savings Plus Allotments that may be made on behalf of any Participant or class of Participants so that the provisions of this Section 3.08 are satisfied. 3.09 Additional Discrimination Testing Provisions (a) If any Highly Compensated Employee is either (i) a 5% owner, or (ii) one of the 10 highest-paid Highly Compensated Employees, then any benefit or contribution paid to or made on behalf of any member of his "family" shall be deemed paid to or made on behalf of such Highly Compensated Employee for purposes of Section 3.08 to the extent required under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate under Sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code. The contributions required to be aggregated pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be disregarded in determining the Actual Deferral Percentage and Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of Non-Highly Compensated Employees for purposes of Section 3.08. Any return of Excess Contributions required under Section 3.08 with respect to the family group shall be made by allocating the Excess Contributions among the Highly Compensated Employee and the members of his family in proportion to the contributions made by or on behalf of each family member that is combined. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "family" means, with respect to any Employee, such Employee's spouse, lineal ascendants and descendants, and spouses of such lineal ascendants and descendants. (b) If any Highly Compensated Employee is a participant of another qualified plan of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, other than an employee stock ownership plan as described in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code, under which deferred cash contributions or matching contributions are made on behalf of the Highly Compensated Employee or under which the Highly Compensated Employee makes after-tax contributions, the Employee Benefits Committee shall implement rules, which shall be uniformly applicable to all Employees similarly situated, to take into account all such contributions for the Highly Compensated Employee under all such plans in applying the limitations of Section 3.08. 3.10 Maximum Annual Additions Limitation In accordance with the provisions of Appendix A attached hereto, the "Annual Additions" (as defined in Appendix A) to a Participant's Accounts for any Plan Year, when added to the Participant's Annual Additions for that Plan Year under any other qualified plan of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, shall not exceed an amount which is equal to the lesser of (i) 25% of his Section 415 Compensation for that Plan Year or (ii) $30,000 multiplied by the Adjustment Factor. 3.11 Return of Contributions Except as provided below, at no time shall any contributions (or portions thereof) revert to the Employer prior to discharge of all liabilities under the Plan. (a) The Employer's contributions to the Plan are conditioned upon Section 404 of the Code. If all or part of the Employer's deductions under Section 404 of the Code for contributions to the Plan are disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the portion of the contributions to which that disallowance applies shall be returned to the Employer without interest but reduced by any investment loss attributable to those contributions. The return shall be made within one year after the disallowance of the deduction. (b) The Employer may recover, without interest, the amount of its contributions to the Plan made on account of a mistake of fact, reduced by any investment loss attributable to those contributions, if recovery is made within one year after the date of those contributions. (c) In the event that Savings Plus Allotments made under Section 3.01 are returned to the Employer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.11, the elections to reduce Compensation which were made by Participants on whose behalf those contributions were made shall be void retroactively to the beginning of the period for which those contributions were made. The Savings Plus Allotments so returned shall be distributed in cash to those Participants for whom those contributions were made. Article 4 Investment of Contributions 4.01 Investment of Participants' Prior Plan Accounts (a) As of the Effective Date, a Participant may elect to allocate his "Account" under the Prior Plan among the Investment Funds in multiples of 1% by giving such advance notice as may be required by the Employee Benefits Committee.

The Trustee, the Employee Benefits Committee, the Company and the officers, supervisors and other employees of the Company are not empowered to advise a Participant as to the manner in which his Accounts shall be invested. The fact that an Investment Fund is available to Participants for investment under the Plan shall not be construed as a recommendation for investment in that Investment Fund. Article 5 Valuation of Accounts 5.01 Valuation of the Investment Funds The Trustee shall value the Investment Funds on a monthly basis. On each Valuation Date there shall be allocated to the Accounts of each Participant his proportionate share of the increase or decrease in the fair market value of his Accounts in each of the Investment Funds, in a manner determined by the Employee Benefits Committee. Whenever an event requires a determination of the value of the Participant's Accounts, the value shall be computed as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately following the date of determination, subject to the provisions of Section 5.02. 5.02 Discretionary Power of the Employee Benefits Committee The Employee Benefits Committee reserves the right to change from time to time the procedures used in valuing the Accounts or crediting (or debiting) the Accounts if it feels, after due deliberation and upon the advice of counsel and/or the current recordkeeper, that such an action is justified in that it results in a more accurate reflection of the fair market value of assets. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Article and such new administrative procedures, those new administrative procedures shall prevail. 5.03 Statement of Accounts Each Participant shall be furnished, at least once per year, with a statement setting forth the value of his Accounts and the Vested Portion of his Accounts.

The investment gain or loss of the Loan Fund (including any gain or loss attributable to repayments or default) shall not be included in the calculation or allocation of the increase or decrease in the fair market value of the other assets of the Plan.

A revocation of any election shall be effective when the completed form is filed with the Employer. If a Participant who has elected an annuity form of benefit dies before the date the election becomes effective, the election shall be revoked. (e) If a Participant elects an annuity form of benefit, the Employer shall direct the Trustee to provide the annuity form of benefit by purchasing a single premium annuity contract from an insurance company. Such annuity contract may either be held by the Trustee as owner or as a non-transferable annuity contract which may be distributed to the Participant, his surviving spouse or Beneficiary in complete satisfaction of the benefits above provided and in full discharge of all liability of the Employer and Trustee hereunder. 8.05 Method of Payment for Eligible Rollover Distributions (a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a Distributee is entitled to receive an Eligible Rollover Distribution which exceeds $200, the Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Employee Benefits Committee, and in accordance with this Section 8.05, to have his Eligible Rollover Distribution paid in accordance with one of the following methods: (i) All of the Eligible Rollover distribution shall be paid directly to the Distributee; (ii) All of the Eligible Rollover Distribution shall be paid as a Direct Rollover to the Eligible Retirement Plan designated by the Distributee; or (iii) The portion of the Eligible Rollover Distribution designated by the Participant, which portion shall be at least $500, shall be paid as a Direct Rollover to the Eligible Retirement Plan designated by the Distributee and the balance of the Eligible Rollover Distribution shall be paid directly to the Distributee.

In the event the Distributee does not return the signed election form by his Plan benefit commencement date, he shall be deemed to have elected the method of payment described in Section 8.05(a)(i). (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.05(b), distributions paid in accordance with Section 8.05(a) may commence less than 30 days after the material described in Section 8.05(b) is given to the Distributee provided that: (i) The Distributee is notified that he has the right to a period of at least 30 days after receipt of the material to consider whether or not to elect a distribution; and (ii) After receipt of such notification, he affirmatively elects to receive a distribution. (d) The following definitions apply to the terms used in this Section 8.05: (i) "Eligible Rollover Distribution" means any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include: (A) Any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee's designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; (B) Any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; (C) The portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities); and (D) Any other type of distribution that the Internal Revenue Service announces (pursuant to regulation, notice or otherwise) is not an Eligible Rollover Distribution pursuant to Section 402(c) of the Code.

However, in the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to the surviving spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity. (iii) "Distributee" includes an Employee or former Employee. In addition, the Employee's or former Employee's surviving spouse and the Employee's or former Employee's spouse or former spouse who is the "alternate payee," as defined in Section 414(p)(8) of the Code, pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order are Distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse. (iv) "Direct Rollover" means a payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee. 8.06 Timing of Distribution (a) In the event that the value of the Vested Portion of the Participant's Accounts does not exceed $3,500 as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately following the Participant's termination of employment, distribution or commencement of distribution of the Vested Portion of the Participant's Accounts shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the Participant's termination of employment. (b) In the event that the value of the Vested Portion of the Participant's Accounts is more than $3,500 as of the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately following the Participant's termination of employment, payment of his distribution shall automatically be delayed to the date that the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may, in accordance with such procedures as the Employee Benefits Committee prescribes, elect to have the distribution of the Vested Portion of his Accounts made or commence as of any Valuation Date coincident with or following his termination of employment and coincident with or before the date that the Participant attains Normal Retirement Age. (c) Upon the Participant's death prior to commencement of benefits, his Beneficiary may elect to commence distribution as soon as administratively feasible after any Valuation Date that next follows the Participant's date of death but in no event later than either Section 8.06(c)(i) or 8.06(c)(ii): (i) If the Beneficiary is not the Participant's spouse, the December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant dies; or (ii) If the Beneficiary is the Participant's spouse, the later of the December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age 70 1/2 or the December 31 following the calendar year in which the Participant dies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Participant has no surviving spouse and no designated Beneficiary, distribution of the Participant's Accounts must be made on or before the December 31 of the fifth full calendar year following the Participant's death. (d) (i) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, unless the Participant elects otherwise, in no event can distribution of the Vested Portion of a Participant's Accounts occur later than 60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which occurs the later of (i) the Participant's termination of employment, or (ii) the 65th anniversary of the Participant's birth. (ii) In no event shall distribution of a Participant's Accounts begin later than the April 1 following the calendar year in which he attains age seventy and one-half (70-1/2).

A Participant, or Beneficiary in the event of the Participant's death, may elect to reallocate the Participant's Accounts among the Investment Funds, in multiples of 1%, in accordance with Section 4.03(b).

However, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint one or more Investment Managers to manage the assets of the Plan (including the power to acquire and dispose of all or part of such assets) as the Company shall designate. In that event, the authority over and responsibility for the management of the assets so designated shall be the sole responsibility of that Investment Manager. Article 11. Amendment, Merger and Termination 11.01 Amendment of the Plan The Company, by action of its Board of Directors, may at any time and from time to time, and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate, amend in whole or in part any or all of the provisions of the Plan. However, no amendment shall make it possible for any part of the funds of the Plan to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled to benefits under the Plan, before the satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to them. No amendment shall be made which has the effect of decreasing the Accrued Pension of any Participant or of reducing the nonforfeitable percentage of the Accrued Pension of a Participant below the nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan as in effect on the date on which the amendment is adopted or, if later, the date on which the amendment becomes effective. No amendment shall be made which affects the rights, duties or responsibilities of the Trustee unless the Trustee provides written consent to such amendment. 11.02 Merger or Consolidation The Company may, in its sole discretion, merge this Plan with another qualified plan, subject to any applicable legal requirements. However, the Plan may not be merged or consolidated with, and its assets or liabilities may not be transferred to, any other plan unless each person entitled to benefits under the Plan would, if the resulting plan were then terminated, receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer if the Plan had then terminated. 11.03 Termination of the Plan The Company, by action of its Board of Directors, may terminate the Plan or completely discontinue contributions under the Plan for any reason at any time. In case of termination or partial termination of the Plan, or complete discontinuance of Company contributions to the Plan, the rights of affected Participants to their Accounts under the Plan as of the date of the termination or discontinuance shall be nonforfeitable. The total amount in each Participant's Accounts shall be distributed, as the Employee Benefits Committee shall direct, to the Participant or for the Participant's benefit or held in trust for the Participant's benefit. Article 12. General Provisions 12.01 Nonalienation; Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (a) Except as required by any applicable law, no benefit under the Plan shall in any manner be anticipated, assigned or alienated, and any attempt to do so shall be void. However, payment shall be made in accordance with the provisions of any Qualified Domestic Relations Order. (b) An immediate lump sum payment, which is the Actuarial Equivalent of the series of payments provided for in a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, shall be made in lieu of the series of payments if the value of the lump sum payment is $3,500 or less. 12.02 Conditions of Employment Not Affected by Plan The establishment of the Plan shall not confer any legal rights upon any Employee or other person for a continuation of employment, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Employer (which right is hereby reserved) to discharge any Employee and to treat him without regard to the effect which that treatment might have upon him as a Participant or potential Participant of the Plan. 12.03 Facility of Payment (a) If the Employee Benefits Committee finds that a Participant or other person entitled to a benefit is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, the Employee Benefits Committee may direct that any benefit due him, unless a claim has been made for the benefit by a duly appointed legal representative, be paid to his spouse, a child, a parent or other blood relative, or to a person with whom he resides. Any payment so made shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Plan for that benefit. (b) If the Employee Benefits Committee finds that a Participant or other person entitled to a benefit is a minor, the Employee Benefits Committee may direct that any benefit due him, unless a claim has been made for the benefit by a duly appointed legal representative, be paid in the following order of preference: (i) to the minor's custodial parent(s); (ii) if no custodial parent of the minor is then living, to a custodian selected by the Employee Benefits Committee to hold the funds for the minor under the Uniform Transfers or Gifts to Minors Act in effect in the jurisdiction in which the minor resides; (iii) if the Employee Benefits Committee decides not to select a custodian pursuant to subparagraph (ii), to the duly appointed and currently acting guardian of the estate of the minor; or (iv) if no guardian of the estate of the minor is duly appointed or currently acting within 60 days of the date the amount becomes payable, to the court having jurisdiction over the estate of the minor. 12.04 Information (a) Each Participant, Beneficiary or other person entitled to a benefit, before any benefit shall be payable to him or on his account under the Plan, shall file with the Employer the information that it shall require to establish his rights and benefits under the Plan. (b) If a Participant in his application for retirement income, or in response to any request by the Employer or Employee Benefits Committee for information, makes any statement which is erroneous or omits any material fact or fails before receiving his first payment to correct any information that he previously incorrectly furnished to the Employer or the Employee Benefits Committee for its records, the amount of his Pension shall be adjusted on the basis of the current facts, and the amount of any overpayment or underpayment made to the Participant shall be deducted from, or added to, his next succeeding payments as the Employee Benefits Committee shall direct. 12.05 Proof of Death and Right of Beneficiary or Other Person The Employer may require and rely upon such proof of death and such evidence of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the value of the Accounts of a deceased Participant as the Employee Benefits Committee may deem proper, and its determination of death and of the right of that Beneficiary or other person to receive payment shall be conclusive. 12.06 Failure to Locate Recipient In the event that the Employee Benefits Committee is unable to locate a Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to payment under the Plan within 5 years from the date such payment was to have been made, the amount to which such Participant or Beneficiary was entitled shall be declared a forfeiture and shall be used to reduce future Employer contributions to the Plan. If the Participant or Beneficiary is later located, the benefit which was previously forfeited hereunder shall be restored by means of an additional Employer contribution to the Plan, if necessary. 12.07 Action by the Board of Directors Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board of Directors under the Plan shall be by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors at a meeting held either in person or by telephone or other electronic means, or by unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting. The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, appoint the Executive Committee or another Committee to take those actions on its behalf which are the responsibility of the Board of Directors in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 12.08 Construction (a) The Plan shall be construed, regulated and administered pursuant to the laws of the State of California, except where ERISA controls. (b) If any provision of this instrument is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be fully effective. (c) The use of the masculine pronoun in this Plan shall include the feminine pronoun wherever appropriate, and vice versa. (d) The use of the singular form of a word in this Plan shall include the plural form wherever appropriate, and vice versa. (e) The titles and headings of the Articles and Sections in this Plan are for convenience only. In the case of ambiguity or inconsistency, the text rather than the titles or headings shall control. Execution of the Plan CSC Outsourcing, Inc. CUTW Hourly Savings Plan is hereby executed this 2nd day of February, 1996. /s/ HAYWARD D. FISK (Signature) Vice President (Title) Appendix A. Maximum Annual Additions Limitation Section 3.10 of the Plan shall be construed in accordance with this Appendix A. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, words and phrases used in this Appendix A shall have the same meanings that are assigned to them under the Plan. The Plan Year shall be considered a "limitation year" for purposes of this Appendix A and Section 415 of the Code. A.01 Definitions The following words and phrases, when used in this Appendix A with an initial capital letter, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise: "Annual Additions" on behalf of a Participant under the Plan or any other qualified plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer for the Plan Year shall not include loan repayments by the Participant or contributions to the Participant's Rollover Contributions Account but shall include: (a) The total contributions, including Savings Plus Allotments and Company Matching Contributions, made on behalf of the Participant by the Employer and all Affiliated Employers under this Plan or any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan; (b) With respect to limitation years beginning before 1987, the lesser of the part of the Participant's contributions in excess of 6% of his Section 415 Compensation or one-half of his total contributions to the Plan or any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; (c) With respect to Limitation Years beginning after 1986, all of the Participant's contributions to this Plan or any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; (d) Forfeitures, if applicable, that have been allocated to the Participant's Accounts under this Plan or his accounts under any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; (e) Voluntary or mandatory contributions made by the Participant under the CSC Outsourcing Inc. CUTW Hourly Savings Plan or another qualified Defined Benefit Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; and (f) Contributions made on behalf of the Participant to an "individual medical benefit account" under a pension or annuity plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, as described, and to the extent required, under Section 415(l) of the Code. "Defined Benefit Plan" means any qualified pension plan which is not a Defined Contribution Plan; however, in the case of a Defined Benefit Plan which provides a benefit which is based partly on the balance of the separate account of a participant, that plan shall be treated as a Defined Contribution Plan to the extent benefits are based on the separate account of a participant and as a Defined Benefit Plan with respect to the remaining portion of the benefits under the plan. "Defined Benefit Plan Fraction" for any limitation year is a fraction - (a) The numerator of which is the projected annual benefit of the Participant (determined as of the close of the limitation year) under all Defined Benefit Plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer; and (b) The denominator of which is the lesser of (i) or (ii) below: (i) The product of 1.25 multiplied by the defined benefit plan dollar limitation under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code (multiplied by the Adjustment Factor) in effect for such limitation year; or (ii) The product of 1.4 multiplied by an amount that is 100% of the Participant's average Section 415 Compensation for the three consecutive years in which his Section 415 Compensation was the highest. "Defined Contribution Plan" means any qualified pension plan which provides for an individual account for each participant and for benefits based solely upon the amount contributed to the participant's account, and any income, expenses, gains and losses, and any forfeitures of accounts of other participants which may be allocated to that participant's accounts, subject to the limitations described in the definition of "Defined Benefit Plan" above. "Defined Contribution Plan Fraction" for any limitation year is a fraction -- (a) The numerator of which is the sum of the Annual Additions made by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer on behalf of the Participant for such limitation year and all prior limitation years; and (b) The denominator of which is the sum of the lesser of (i) or (ii) below determined for such limitation year and for each prior year of service with the Employer or an Affiliated Employer: (i) The product of 1.25 multiplied by the defined contribution plan dollar limitation under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code (multiplied by the Adjustment Factor); or (ii) The product of 1.4 multiplied by an amount equal to 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for such year. At the direction of the Employee Benefits Committee, the portion of the denominator of that fraction with respect to limitation years ending before 1983 shall be computed as the denominator for the limitation year ending in 1982, as determined under the law as then in effect, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the lesser of: (A) $51,875; or (B) 1.4 multiplied by 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for the limitation year ending in 1981; and the denominator of which is the lesser of: (A) $41,500; or (B) 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for that limitation year. A.02 Maximum Annual Additions Limitation If the Annual Additions to a Participant's Accounts for any Plan Year would otherwise exceed the limitation set forth in Section 3.10, the excess Annual Additions to such Participant's Accounts for such Plan Year shall be reduced in the following order: (i) The Participant's unmatched Regular Savings Allotments shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant. (ii) Next, the Participant's unmatched Savings Plus Allotments shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant. (iii) Next, the Participant's matched Regular Savings Allotments and corresponding Company Matching Contributions shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction attributable to the Participant's matched Regular Savings Allotments, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant and the amount attributable to the Company Matching Contributions shall be applied to reduce subsequent Company Matching Contributions. (iv) Next, the Participant's matched Savings Plus Allotments and corresponding Company Matching Contributions shall be reduced to the extent necessary. The amount of the reduction attributable to the Participant's matched Savings Plus Allotments, together with any earnings on the contributions to be returned, shall be returned to the Participant and the amount attributable to the Company Matching Contributions shall be applied to reduce subsequent Company Matching Contributions. A.03 Participant in a Defined Benefit Plan (a) If a Participant under this Plan has at any time participated in a Defined Benefit Plan maintained by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, the sum of the Participant's Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and Defined Contribution Plan Fraction shall not exceed 1.0. (b) In the event the sum of a Participant's Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and Defined Contribution Plan Fraction exceeds 1.0, his benefits under, and contributions to, all plans shall be accomplished by first reducing the benefits otherwise payable to the Participant under the CSC Outsourcing Inc. CUTW Hourly Retirement Plan or any other Defined Benefit Plan in which the Participant participates (in the manner and priority set forth in such plans), and second by reducing the contributions made on behalf of the Participant to the Plan or any other Defined Contribution Plans in which the Participant participates in such priority as shall be determined by the Employee Benefits Committee for the Plan and the administrators of such other plans. The necessary reductions may, however, be made in a different manner and priority pursuant to the agreement of the Employee Benefits Committee for the Plan and the administrators of all other plans in which the Participant participates.
