Commitments and Contingencies

Note 11 — Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases real estate, data processing and other equipment with lease terms expiring through fiscal year 2023. Certain leases provide for renewal options and additional rentals based on escalations in operating expenses and real estate taxes.

Rental expense, including short-term leases, maintenance charges and taxes on leased facilities, was approximately $124 million, $168 million and $150 million for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Rental expense for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 included sublease income of approximately $6 million, $9 million and $10 million, respectively.

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases at March 31, 2013, were as follows:

Fiscal Year	(in millions)
2014	$	97
2015	86
2016	68
2017	56
2018	50
Thereafter	140
Total	$	497
Less income from sublease	(24		)
Net minimum operating lease payments	$	473

The Company has additional commitments to purchase goods and services of approximately $140 million in future periods, approximately $136 million of which expires by fiscal year 2018.

Litigation: The Company, various subsidiaries, and certain current and former officers have been or, from time to time, may be named as defendants in various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. The Company also addresses contract issues and disputes with customers, including government customers. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses in connection with these lawsuits, claims and disputes, and intends to vigorously contest each of them.

Based on the Company's experience, management believes that the damages amounts claimed in a case are not a meaningful indicator of the potential liability. Claims, suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of cases.

In the opinion of the Company's management based upon information currently available to the Company, while the outcome of these lawsuits and claims is uncertain, the likely results of these lawsuits and claims against the Company are not expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although the effect could be material to the Company's results of operations or cash flows for any interim reporting period. For some of these matters, the Company is unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss due to the stage of the matter and/or other particular circumstances of the matter. For others, a range of reasonably possible loss can be estimated. For those matters for which such a range can be estimated, the Company estimates that, in the aggregate, the range of reasonably possible loss is from zero to $30 million. This is in addition to amounts, if any, that have been accrued for those matters.

The Company is obligated to indemnify its officers and directors under certain circumstances to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. As a part of that obligation, the Company has advanced and will continue to advance certain attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by current and former officers and directors in various lawsuits and investigations.
