Provision for indemnification of directors and officers is made in Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

In addition, the Corporation shall, in the manner and to the extent as the By-laws of the Corporation shall provide, indemnify to the full extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (and in particular Paragraph 145 thereof), as from time to time amended, such other persons as the By-laws shall provide, and may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of such other persons." "A director of the Corporation shall not be held personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

II-3 Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed. Not applicable. Item 8. Exhibits. A list of exhibits included in this registration statement is set forth in the Exhibit Index which immediately precedes such exhibits and is hereby incorporated by reference herein. The Registrant has submitted the Plan, and hereby undertakes to submit any amendment thereto, to the Internal Revenue Service in a timely manner and will make all changes required by the Internal Revenue Service in order to qualify the Plan. Item 9. Undertakings. A. Subsequent Disclosure. (a) 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 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 (b)(1)(i) and (b)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic II-4 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. (c) 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 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. B. To Transmit Certain Material. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus to each employee to whom the prospectus is sent or given a copy of the Registrant's annual report to stockholders for its last fiscal year, unless such employee otherwise has received a copy of such report in which case the Registrant shall state in the prospectus that it will promptly furnish, without charge, a copy of such report on written request of the employee. If the last fiscal year of the registrant has ended within 120 days prior to the use of the prospectus, the annual report for the preceding year may be so delivered, but within such 120 day period the annual report for the last fiscal year will be furnished to each such employee.

RETIREMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN INTRODUCTION Automatic Data Processing, Inc. hereby adopts this Retirement and Savings Plan (the "Plan"), effective as of January 1, 1983, as herein set forth. The purpose of the Plan is to provide eligible employees of Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (the "Company") and its participating affiliates with an additional source of retirement income. The Plan also is designed to provide participants, their spouses and beneficiaries, as the case may be, with an additional measure of security under certain circumstances, such as death, disability or termination of employment. The Plan is also intended to utilize the employee stock ownership credit allowed under Section 44G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), effective January 1, 1983. Effective as of January 1, 1984, the Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code, as amended, and to satisfy the additional requirements imposed by Section 401(k) of the Code.

Profit Sharing Plan and Trust. 1.4 "Beneficiary" shall mean any person designated by a Participant to receive any payment of any amounts due after the Participant's death. 1.5 "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of the Company. 5 1.6 "Break in Service" shall mean any Severance Period greater than twelve (12) months, excluding any period of up to twelve (12) months during which an Employee is on a maternity/paternity leave. The term "maternity/paternity leave" means any absence of an Employee from work for reasons of (i) the pregnancy of the Employee, (ii) the birth of a child of the Employee or the placement of a child with the Employee for the purposes of adoption, or (iii) the care of a child for a period beginning immediately following such birth or placement. 1.6 "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as the same has been and may be amended from time to time. 1.7 "Committee" shall mean the Committee appointed to administer the Plan pursuant to Article 7. 1.8 "Company" shall mean Automatic Data Processing, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and any successor thereto. 1.9 "Company Stock" shall mean the common stock, par value $.10 per share, of the Company. 1.10 "Compensation" shall mean the Compensation received by a Participant from one or more Employers for services rendered as an Employee during the Plan Year, including commissions and sales contest cash awards and other like remuneration, bonuses (including, without limitation, Christmas and recruitment bonuses), overtime pay, salary continuation payments and severance pay for purposes of Salary Deferrals and Matching Employer Contributions, but excluding Employer contributions to or under this or any other employee benefit plan, and any other forms of deferred, contingent, indirect or special 6 remuneration; provided, however, that Compensation shall include any amounts not includible in gross income of the Participant under Section 125 of the Code and amounts deferred by a Participant under a Salary Deferral election and contributed to the Plan in accordance with Article 3. For purposes of Section 3.10 and Article 10 Compensation shall be compensation as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.415-2(d). For purposes of the Plan, the annual amount of Compensation taken into account for an Employee or Participant shall not exceed $200,000 (as adjusted for cost-of-living increases). The determination of a Participant's Compensation will be in accordance with records maintained by the Company or Affiliate and shall be conclusive. In addition to other applicable limitations set forth in the Plan, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, the annual Compensation of each Participant taken into account under the Plan shall not exceed the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 ("OBRA '93") annual compensation limit. The OBRA '93 annual compensation limit is $150,000, as adjusted by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for increases in the cost of living in accordance with Section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Code. The cost of living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to any period, not exceeding 12 months, over which Compensation is determined (determination period) beginning in such calendar year. If a determination period consists of fewer than 12 months, the OBRA '93 annual compensation limit will be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the determination period, and the denominator of which is 12. 7 For Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, any reference in this Plan to the limitation under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code shall mean the OBRA '93 annual compensation limit set forth in this provision. If Compensation for any determination period is taken into account in determining a Participant's benefits accruing in the current Plan Year, the Compensation for that prior determination period is subject to the OBRA '93 annual compensation limit in effect for that prior determination period. For this purpose for determination periods beginning before the first day of the first Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 1994, the OBRA '93 annual compensation limit is $150,000. 1.11 "Computation Period" shall mean the twelve (12) consecutive month period (a) commencing on the Employee's Employment Date or Re-employment Date and (b) commencing on the first day of each Plan Year beginning after such Employment Date or Reemployment Date. 1.12 "Direct Rollover" shall mean a payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Participant or Payee. 1.13 "Disability" shall mean the permanent inability of a Participant, due to illness, accident or other physical or mental incapacity, to perform the usual duties and services of his employment with the Company or an Affiliate. The permanence and degree of such impairment shall be determined under the same criteria used by the Company to determine whether an Employee is entitled to benefits under the Company's Long Term Disability Insurance Plan, or if the Participant is not covered under such policy, under the criteria used to determine eligibility for Social Security disability payments. 8 1.14 "Eligible Retirement Plan" shall mean an individual retirement account described in Section 408 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 Participant's or Payee'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 an individual retirement annuity. 1.15 "Eligible Rollover Distribution" shall mean any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Participant, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include (i) any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the lives (or life expectancies) of the Participant and the Participant's designated Beneficiary, or for a specified period of 10 years or more; (ii) any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; and (iii) the portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income. 1.16 "Eligibility Service" shall mean a 12-consecutive month period during which the Employee completes at least 1,000 Hours of Service beginning on the Employee's Employment Date and each anniversary date thereof if the Employee fails to complete at least 1,000 Hours of Service in the initial eligibility computation period. 1.17 "Employee" shall mean any person (including persons on a Leave of Absence) employed by an Employer or an Affiliate maintaining the Plan or of any other employer required to be aggregated with such Employer under Sections 414(b), (c), (m), or 9 (o) of the Code and shall include a "leased employee" as defined in Section 414(n)(2) of the Code. 1.18 "Employer" shall mean the Company and any United States Affiliate which, with the approval of the Board, has heretofore adopted, or in accordance with Section 9.7, may hereafter adopt, the Plan for the benefit of its eligible Employees. 1.19 "Employment" shall mean an Employee's employment with the Company or an Affiliate. 1.20 "Employment Date" shall mean the date on which an employee first completes an Hour of Service. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as otherwise determined by the Committee, no service shall be credited hereunder to an Employee for any period of service with an Affiliate prior to the date the Affiliate becomes such within the meaning of Section 1.2. Accordingly, except as otherwise determined by the Committee in a nondiscriminatory manner, the Employment Date of any person in the employ of a company prior to the date such company becomes an Affiliate hereunder shall be the date such company becomes an Affiliate. 1.21 "ERISA" shall mean the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. 1.22 "Excess Aggregate Contributions" shall mean an amount described in Section 401(m)(6)(B) of the Code. 1.23 "Excess Contributions" shall mean an amount described in Section 401(k)(8)(B) of the Code. 10 1.24 "Excess Salary Deferrals" shall mean an amount described in Section 402(g)(3) of the Code that is includible in the gross income of the Participant for a taxable year under Section 402(g) of the Code that exceeds the dollar limitation under such Code section and is treated as an annual addition under the Plan. 1.25 "Family Member" shall mean an individual described in Section 414(q)(6)(B) of the Code, namely, the spouse of an Employee, the lineal ascendants of an Employee, the spouses of lineal ascendants of the Employee. For purposes of this definition, Employee shall refer only to a five percent (5%) owner of one or more Employers or a top-ten Highly Compensated Employee. For purposes of salary deferral contributions under Section 401(k) and matching contributions under Section 401(m) of the Code, a Family Member shall mean the spouse, lineal ascendants and descendants of the Employee or former Employee and the spouse of such lineal ascendants. 1.26 "Fiscal Year" shall mean the fiscal year of the Company, which is the twelve-month period ending on each June 30, or such other fiscal year as the Company may adopt. 1.27 "Highly Compensated Employee" shall mean, except for purposes of the actual deferral percentage test and the actual contribution percentage test under the income tax laws of Puerto Rico, an Employee who at any time during the Plan Year or preceding Plan Year is an employee described in Section 414(q)(1) of the Code; including both Highly Compensated active Employees and Highly Compensated former Employees. A Highly Compensated active Employee includes any Employee who performs services for the Company or an Affiliate during the determination year and who, during the look-back year (a) received Compensation in excess of $75,000 (as adjusted pursuant to Section 415(d) of the Code); (b) received compensation from the Company or an Affiliate in excess of $50,000 (as adjusted pursuant to Section 415(d) of the Code) and was a member of the top-paid group for such year; or (c) was an officer of the Company or an Affiliate and received Compensation during such year that is greater than fifty percent (50%) of the defined benefit dollar limitation. The term Highly Compensated active Employee also includes: (a) an Employee who is both (i) described in the preceding sentence if the term "determination year" is substituted for the term "look-back year" 11 and (ii) is one of the 100 Employees who received the most Compensation from the Company or an Affiliate during the determination year; and (b) Employees who are five (5) percent owners at any time during the look-back year or determination year. If no officer has Compensation in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the defined benefit dollar limitation, during either a determination year or a lookback year, the highest paid officer for such year shall be treated as a Highly Compensated Employee. The determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee, including the determination of the number and identity of Employees in the top-paid group, the top 100 Employees, the number of Employees treated as officers and the Compensation that is considered, will be made in accordance with Section 414(q) of the Code and in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.414(q)-1T.

A Rollover Contribution shall be in cash or such other property as is acceptable to the Committee. In the event that an Employee makes a contribution pursuant to this Section that was intended to be a Rollover Contribution which the Committee later discovers not be a Rollover Contribution, the Committee shall direct the Trustee to distribute to such Participant as soon as practicable after such discovery the Account balance of his or her Rollover Contribution Account determined as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding such discovery. 3.4 Establishing of Accounts 3.4.1 Each Participant for whom the Employer makes contributions on account of a Salary Deferral Election shall have a Salary Deferral Account to which all amounts allocable to the Participant pursuant to a Salary Deferral Election and the earnings thereon shall be credited. 3.4.2 Each Participant for whom the Employer makes Matching Employer Contributions in accordance with Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2(a) and 3.5 shall have a Matching Employer Contribution Account to which all amounts allocable to the Participant pursuant to Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2(a) and the earnings thereon shall be credited. 3.4.3 Each Participant who received an allocation of the Stock Sharing Contribution pursuant to Section 3.2 shall have a Stock Sharing Account to which all prior 23 Stock Sharing Contributions made by the Employer and all earnings thereon shall be credited. 3.4.4 Each Participant who makes a Rollover Contribution to the Plan pursuant to Section 3.3 shall have a Rollover Contribution Account to which the Committee shall credit, or cause to be credited, Rollover Contributions made by the Participant. 3.4.5 Each Salary Deferral Account, Matching Employer Contribution Account and Stock Sharing Account shall separately reflect the Participant's interest in each Investment Fund. Each Participant shall receive, at least semiannually, a statement of his Accounts showing the balance in each Investment Fund. 3.5 Allocations of Salary Deferrals All contributions to a Salary Deferral Account made pursuant to a Salary Deferral Election shall be made before the last day of the twelve-month period immediately following the Plan Year to which such contributions relate. 3.6 Allocation of Matching Employer Contributions Subject to the provisions of Section 3.9, the Matching Employer Contributions of each Employer shall be allocated, as of the last day of the Plan Year to which they relate, among the Matching Employer Contribution Accounts of the Participants of such Employer on the same basis that such Matching Employer Contribution is made in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof, provided that the Participant is a Participant on the last day of the Plan Year to which the Matching Employer Contribution relates. 24 3.7 Allocation of Dividends To the extent possible, the Trustee shall use cash dividends on Company Stock in the Stock sharing Account and any other available cash not required for distribution to a Participant in accordance with the Plan, to purchase additional Company Stock, provided, however, that such additional Company Stock shall be purchased on behalf of a Participant's Stock Sharing Account only at such time or times as there shall be sufficient cash in such Stock Sharing Account to purchase one whole share of Company Stock. The Trustee shall allocate such additional Company Stock by adjusting each Stock Sharing Account for dividend payments by the Company on Company Stock, in proportion to the balance of such Stock Sharing Account as of the record date for such dividend to the total of all Stock Sharing Account balances as of such record date. 3.8 Stock Dividends or Splits 3.8.1 Any Company Stock received by the Trustee as a stock dividend or stock split shall be allocated to each Stock Sharing Account by applying the applicable stock dividend or stock split factor to the Company Stock in each such Account on the applicable record date for such stock dividend or stock split. 3.8.2 The Trustee shall be entitled to direct the voting of all shares of Company Stock in each Participant's Matching Employer Contribution Account on each Company Stock voting record date. 3.9 Voting Rights Each Employee shall be entitled to direct the Trustee as to the voting of all shares of Company Stock in such Participant's Stock Sharing Account on each Company Stock voting 25 record date, and the Trustee shall be required to solicit a proxy from each Employee with such voting rights and to vote such Company Stock according to proxy from the Participant but not otherwise. 3.10 Section 415 Limitations 3.10.1 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the "annual addition" (as defined in Section 415(c)(2) of the Code) allocated to the Accounts of a Participant for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the limits described under Section 415(c)(1) of the Code. 3.10.2 With regard to the combined plan fraction described under Section 415(e) of the Code, if a Participant is (or has been) a participant in any defined benefit plan maintained by the Company or an Affiliate, the sum of such fraction shall not exceed one. If the sum exceeds one, the numerator of the Participant's defined benefit plan fraction shall be adjusted or other action shall be taken as is necessary or appropriate until the sum equals one. 3.11 Reduction of Annual Addition If the "annual addition" allocated to a Participant's Accounts for any Limitation Year exceeds the limitation described in Section 3.10, then (i) an amount equal to such portion of any voluntary contributions made by the Participant in such Plan Year as is necessary to eliminate the excess over the limitation described in Section 415(c)(1) of the Code shall be returned to the Participant, (ii) to the extent that the excess annual addition is attributable to a reasonable error in estimating salary deferral contribution, an amount equal to such portion of any Salary Deferrals (with earnings thereon) made by the Participant in such Plan Year as is necessary to eliminate the excess over the limitation described in Section 415(c)(1) of the 26 Code shall be returned to the Participant, and (iii) any remaining excess over the limitation described in Section 415(c)(1) shall be allocated among the other Participants who are Employees on the last day of the Plan Year in the proportion that the Matching Employer contributions allocated to the Account of each such Participant for the Plan Year bears to the total Matching Employer Contribution allocated to the Accounts of all such Participants for such Plan Year. Any amounts not permitted to be so allocated to any other Participant by reason of the limitations set forth in Sections 3.1.2 and 3.10 shall be allocated as provided above among those of such Participants to whom such amounts may be allocated. 3.12 Limitation on Salary Deferral Elections Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article III, for each Plan Year the Committee shall limit the amount of contributions made by Participants pursuant to Salary Deferral Elections with respect to each Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee to the extent necessary to insure that either of the following tests is satisfied: a. the "Actual Deferral Percentage" for the group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Deferral Percentage ("ADP") of all other Employees multiplied by 1.25; or b. the excess of the Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees over that of all other Employees is not more than two percentage points, and the Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Deferral Percentage of all other Employees multiplied by 2. 27 "Actual Deferral Percentage" for a group of Employees for a Plan Year shall be the average of the ratios (calculated separately for each Employee) of (i) the amount credited to each Employee's Salary Deferral Account for the Plan Year to (ii) the Employee's Compensation for the Plan Year. The limitation described in this Section shall be tested twice: once with respect to all Eligible Employees, including Employees residing in Puerto Rico using the general definition of Highly Compensated Employee as set forth in Section 1.27 hereof; and once with respect only to Employees in Puerto Rico, using the definition of Highly Compensated Employee under the income tax laws of Puerto Rico. The determination and treatment of the Actual Deferred Percentage for any Participant must satisfy such other requirements as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe. The provisions of Section 601(h) of the Code and any regulations issued thereunder are incorporated by reference. The Committee shall maintain sufficient data and record information to exhibit compliance with the ADP Test for at least the last three completed Plan Years. 3.13 Correction of Excess Salary Deferrals 3.13.1 With respect to a Participant's taxable year, if the amount of contributions made pursuant to the Salary Deferral Election exceeds $7,000 (as adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury), the Participant may notify the Committee by the March 1 following the end of such taxable year of the amount of such Excess Salary Deferral. Not later than the April 15 following the end of such taxable year, the Trustee shall distribute such Excess Salary Deferral (and the income attributable thereto) to the Participant. 28 3.13.2 The Excess Salary Deferrals to be distributed are adjusted for any income or loss up to the date of distribution. The income or loss allocable to Excess Salary Deferrals is the income or loss allocable to the Participant's Salary Deferral Account for the taxable year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is such Participant's Excess Salary Deferrals for the year and the denominator is the Participant's Account balance attributable to Salary Deferrals without regard to any income or loss occurring during such taxable year. 3.13.3 Excess Salary Deferrals are treated as annual additions under the Plan. 3.14 Correction of Excess Contributions 3.14.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess Contributions and income allocable thereto shall be distributed no later than the last day of each Plan Year, to Participants on whose behalf such Excess Contributions were made for the preceding Plan Year. 3.14.2 The Committee will undertake to distribute Excess Contributions to Plan Participants within 2.5 months after the close of the Plan Year in which the Excess Contributions occurred. In the event that Excess Contributions are not distributed to affected Participants within 21-2 months after the close of such Plan Year, the Employer shall be subject to a ten (10) percent excise tax under Section 4979 of the Code. 3.14.3 A Participant may treat his Excess Contributions as an amount distributed to the Participant and then contributed by the Participant to the Plan. Recharacterized amounts will remain nonforfeitable and subject to the same distribution requirements as Salary Deferrals. Recharacterization must occur no later than 2.5 months after the last day of the Plan Year in which such Excess Contributions arose and is deemed to occur no earlier than 29 the date the last Highly Compensated Employee is informed in writing of the amount recharacterized and the consequences thereof. Recharacterized amounts will be taxable to the Participant for the Participant's tax year in which the Participant would have received them in cash. 3.14.4 The Excess Contributions to be distributed are adjusted for income and losses up to the date of distribution. The income or loss allocable to Excess Contributions equals the income or loss allocable to the Salary Deferrals for the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant's Excess Contributions for the Plan Year and the denominator is the Participant's Account balance attributable to Salary Deferrals on the last day of the Plan Year without regard to any income or loss occurring during the Plan Year. 3.14.5 Excess Contributions are treated as annual additions under Section 415 of the Code. 3.15 Limitation on Matching Employer Contributions 3.15.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article III, for each Plan Year the Committee shall limit the amount of contributions made by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1.1 and 3.1.2(a) with respect to each Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee to the extent necessary to insure that either of the following tests is satisfied: a. the "Average Contribution Percentage" for the group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Actual Contribution Percentage ("ACP") of all other Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or 30 b. the excess of the Average Contribution Percentage for the group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees over that of all other Employees is not more than two percentage points, and the Average Contribution Percentage for the group of eligible Highly Compensated Employees is not more than the Average Contribution Percentage of all other Employees multiplied by 2. "Average Contribution Percentage" for a group of Employees for a Plan Year shall be the average of the ratios (calculated separately for each Employee) of (i) the sum of the Matching Em- ployer Contributions made under the Plan on behalf of the Participant for the Plan Year to (ii) the Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year (whether or not the Employee was a Participant for the entire Plan Year). Such Average Contribution Percentage shall include forfeitures of Excess Aggregate Contributions or Matching Employer Contributions allocated to the Participant's account which shall be taken into account in the year in which such forfeiture is allocated. 3.15.2 Multiple Use: If the sum of the ADP and ACP of the Highly Compensated Employees who participate in the Plan exceeds the "Aggregate Limit", then the ACP of such Highly Compensated Employees will be reduced (beginning with such Highly Compensated Employee whose ACP is the highest) so that the limit is not exceeded. The amount by which each Highly Compensated Employee's Average Contribution Percentage is reduced shall be treated as an Excess Aggregate Contribution. The ADP and ACP of the Highly Compensated Employees are determined after any corrections required to meet the ADP or ACP test. Multiple use does not occur if either the ADP or ACP of the Highly Compensated 31 Employees does not exceed 1.25 multiplied by the ADP and ACP of the non-Highly Compensated Employees. "Aggregate Limit" shall mean the sum of (i) 125% of the greater of the ADP of the non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year or the ACP of non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year and (ii) the lesser of 200% or two plus the lesser of such ADP or ACP. "Lesser" is substituted for "greater" in (i) above and "greater" is substituted for "lesser" after "two plus the" in (ii) if it would result in a larger Aggregate Limit. 3.15.3 The determination and treatment of the Average Contribution Percentage of any Participant must satisfy such other requirements as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe. 3.15.4 The provisions of Section 401(m) of the Code and any regulations issued thereunder are incorporated by reference. The limitations described in this Section shall be applied twice; once with respect to all Eligible Employees, including employees residing in Puerto Rico, using the general definition of Highly Compensated Employee as set forth in Section 1.27 hereof; and once with respect only to Employees resident in Puerto Rico, using the definition of Highly Compensated Employees under the income tax laws of Puerto Rico. 3.15.5 The Committee shall maintain sufficient data and record information to exhibit compliance with the ACP test for at least the last three completed Plan Years. 3.16 Correction of Excess Aggregate Contributions 32 3.16.1 Excess Aggregate Contributions and income allocable to those contributions are forfeited, if otherwise forfeitable under this Plan, or if not forfeitable, distributed no later than the last day of each Plan Year, to Participants whose Matching Employer Contributions were allocated for the preceding Plan Year. The Committee anticipates that the Excess Aggregate Contributions will be distributed to affected Participants within 2.5 months after the close of the Plan Year in which the Excess Aggregate Contributions occurred. 3.16.2 If the Excess Aggregate Contributions are not distributed to affected Participants within 2.5 months after the close of the Plan Year, the Company will be subject to a 10% excise tax under Section 4979 of the Code. 3.16.3 The Excess Aggregate Contributions to be distributed are adjusted for income and losses up to the date of distribution. The income or loss allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions equals the income or loss allocable to the Matching Employer Contributions for the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant's Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan Year and the denominator is the Participant's Account balance attributable to Matching Employer Contributions on the last day of the Plan Year without regard to any income or loss occurring during the Plan Year. 3.16.4 Amounts forfeited by Highly Compensated Employees under this Section 3.16.4 shall be allocated pursuant to Section 5.5. 3.16.5 Excess Aggregate Contributions are treated as annual additions under Section 415 of the Code. 33 3.17 Special Rule for Family Members To determine the ADP and ACP of an eligible Participant who is a 5-percent owner or one of the ten most highly-paid Highly Compensated Employees, the Salary Deferrals and Matching Employer Contributions and Compensation of the Participant includes the Salary Deferrals and Matching Employer Contributions and Compensation of Family Members. Family Members, with respect to Highly Compensated Employees, shall be disregarded as separate employees in determining the ADP and ACP percentages for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees and non-Highly Compensated Employees. Family Members are disregarded in determining the ADP and ACP of eligible Participants who are non-Highly Compensated Employees. 34 ARTICLE 4 INVESTMENT AND VALUATION OF TRUST FUND AND MAINTENANCE OF ACCOUNTS 4.1 Investment Funds 4.1.1 All assets attributable to Matching Employer Contributions shall be invested by the Trustee in Company Stock subject to the election provided in Section 4.2.3.

A Participant who elects to defer distribution of his Account Balance may elect to commence receipt thereof in writing to the Committee at any time during the period beginning with the decision to defer commencement of distribution and terminating at his attainment of age 65. 6.1.2 For distributions made on or after January 1, 1993, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a Participant's (or a Payee's) election under this Section, a Participant (or a Payee) may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Committee, to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover 41 Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by a Participant (or a Payee) in a Direct Rollover. 6.1.3 All distributions from the Salary Deferral Account shall be made in cash. Distributions from the Matching Employer Contribution Account shall be made in cash or company stock at the Participant's election; provided, however, that such election is limited to only one medium of payment. Distributions from the Rollover Contribution Account shall be in cash. Distributions from the Stock Sharing Account shall be made in cash or in whole shares of Company stock and cash held in such Stock Sharing Account at the Participant's election.

In the event of such repayment, as of the Valuation Date coincident with or next following such repayment, the Participant's Account shall be restored to its value on the date of distribution. 42 A Participant is deemed to have received a distribution of zero dollars if as of his Severance Date, said Participant is zero percent vested in his Matching Employer Contribution Account. 6.3 Forfeitures If a Participant terminates Employment and is not vested or is partially vested in his Matching Employer Contribution Account, the non-vested portion of the Matching Employer Contribution Account shall be forfeited. If the Participant resumes Employment without having incurred five consecutive 1-year Breaks in Service, the value of the Participant's Matching Employer Contribution Account shall be restored. 6.4 Accelerated Distribution of Stock Sharing Accounts In the event that the Company ceases to make Stock Sharing Contributions for any period of years, and does not resume making Stock Sharing Contributions prior to the end of the 84th month after the latest Stock Sharing Contribution shall have been allocated among the Stock Sharing Accounts of Participants, the Trustee shall thereafter, if directed by the Company, distribute the balances of the Stock Sharing Accounts to Participants or to their Beneficiaries or estates as soon as practicable in accordance with the directions of the Committee; provided, however, if the total of a Participant's balance in his Stock Sharing Account is more than $3,500, the Participant may elect to defer the distribution of his Account until age 65. 6.5 Commencement of Payment of Accounts Election Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 6 to the contrary, in no event shall a Participant who on the Valuation Date coincident with or immediately preceding his 43 termination of Employment has an Account balance the vested portion of which is more than $3,500 receive such amount without his written consent (subject to the rules described in Section 6.1). If such written consent is not obtained, the Participant's Vested Account balance, determined as of the Valuation Date next following the later of the Participant's termination of Employment or Disability, or (ii) receipt of a request for a distribution by the Committee shall be paid as soon as practicable following such Valuation Date, but no later than the time he reaches age 65. A Participant shall be notified of his right to defer commencement of benefits, which notice shall be provided not less than 30 nor more than 90 days before the date payment of the Participant's Account balance may commence. The written consent of the Participant must not be made before the Participant receives the notice and must not be made more than 90 days before the date payment of the Participant's Account balance may commence. If a distribution is one to which Sections 401(a)(11) and 417 of the Code do not apply, such distribution may commence less than 30 days after the notice required under Section 1.411(a)- 11(c) of the Income Tax Regulations is given, provided that: a. the Committee clearly informs the Participant that the Participant has a right to a period of at least 30 days after receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a particular distribution option), and b. the Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively elects a distribution. 44 6.6 Limitation on Commencement of Payment of Accounts 6.6.1 Unless a Participant otherwise elects, a Participant shall in no event begin to receive payment of his vested Accounts later than the 60th day after the close of the Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occurs: a. the attainment by the Participant of his normal retirement age; b. the tenth anniversary of the year in which the Participant commenced participation in the Plan; or c. the Participant's termination of Employment. 6.6.2 Notwithstanding any other provision contained in Article 6, distributions to a Participant must commence no later than the first day of April following the calendar year in which he attains age 70.5 (unless he attained age 70.5 before January 1, 1988 and was not a 5% owner). The amount that shall be distributed each year shall be that amount which satisfies the minimum distribution requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, determined using the life expectancy of the Participant, which life expectancy shall not be recalculated annually. 6.7 Payment of Account Balances on Account of Death 6.7.1 If the Participant dies before distribution of his Accounts, the Participant's entire interest will be distributed no later than five (5) years after the Participant's death. 6.7.2 The Accounts payable to the Beneficiary of a Participant who dies while an Employee shall be the sum of the Account balances of the Participant's Accounts as of the Valuation Date following the later of the date of the Participant's death or the receipt of a 45 request for distribution. The Beneficiary shall be paid his Accounts as soon as practicable after such Valuation Date. 6.7.3 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, payment of all Accounts must be made in accordance with Section 401(a)(9) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulations Section 1.401(a)(9)-2. In addition, the amount of payments to be distributed to any Participant shall satisfy the incidental death benefit provisions under Section 401(a)(9)(G) of the Code. 6.8 Designation of Beneficiary 6.8.1 A Participant shall make a written designation of one or more Beneficiaries to whom amounts due after the Participant's death shall be paid. In the event a Participant fails to make such a designation or fails to make a proper designation, or in the event that no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant, any amounts due after the Participant's death shall be paid to his Surviving Spouse, or if there is no Surviving Spouse, to the descendants per stirpes or on their behalf as provided in Section 11.5, or if none, to the legal representative of his estate. No Beneficiary shall have any right to benefits under the Plan unless he shall survive the Participant. 6.8.2 A Participant may change his Beneficiary designation at any time by delivering a new designation in like manner. Any designation shall become effective only upon its receipt by the Committee. The last effective designation received by the Committee shall supersede all prior designations. 6.8.3 The designation of a Beneficiary other than the spouse of a married Participant must be consented to by the Participant's spouse. Such consent must (i) be in 46 writing, (ii) not be changed without spousal consent (unless the spouse's consent permits designations by the Participant without further spousal consent), (iii) acknowledge the effect of such election, and (iv) be witnessed by a notary public. Any consent by a spouse shall be effective only with respect to such spouse. A consent which permits designations by the Participant without any requirement of further consent by such spouse must acknowledge that the spouse has the right to limit consent to a specific Beneficiary and that the spouse voluntarily elects to relinquish such rights. A revocation of a prior waiver may be made by a Participant without the consent of the spouse at any time before benefits begin. The number of revocations shall not be limited. The subsequent marriage of a Participant shall remake any prior designation made in accordance with the foregoing. 6.9 Written Application Required for Payment of Benefits A Participant entitled to receive any payment or other benefit hereunder must file with the Committee a written application therefor on the form and within the time prescribed by the Committee. Benefits for which no application has been made within the applicable period of limitation of actions following the date of entitlement to such benefits shall be payable pursuant to Section 11.7, provided that the Committee shall have sent by registered mail reasonable notice of such payment to the last known address of the Employee or his Beneficiary. Upon the death of an Employee, such application must be filed by the Beneficiary, executor or administrator of the deceased Employee, together with proof of death. 47 6.10 Hardship Withdrawals 6.10.1 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.10.3, a Participant may withdraw, following the filing of an election with the Committee, all or a portion of the balance of his Salary Deferral Account for the purpose of enabling such Participant to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need on account of: a. medical expenses (within the meaning of Section 213(d) of the Code) incurred by the Participant, the Participant's spouse, or any dependent of the Participant or amounts necessary to obtain medical services for the Participant, the Participant's spouse, or any dependent of the Participant; b. the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence for the Participant; c. the payment of tuition for the next 12 months of post-secondary education for the Participant, his spouse, children or dependents; d. the need to prevent the eviction of the Participant from his principal residence or the foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal residence; or e. any other event which the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, in accordance with applicable regulations, or through publications of revenue rulings, notices and other documents of general applicability, determines to be a deemed immediate and heavy financial need. Any amount distributed under this Section 6.10 may be grossup for anticipated federal and state income taxes and penalties. 48 6.10.2 In order to make a hardship withdrawal, the distribution must be necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant. Such need shall be deemed to exist if the following requirements are satisfied: a. the amount of the distribution does not exceed the amount of the Participant's immediate and heavy financial need; b. the Participant has received all distributions (other than hardship distributions) and nontaxable loans available under all qualified plans maintained by the Company; c. all qualified plans maintained by the Employer provide that the Participant may not make elective and voluntary contributions for at least 12 months after receipt of the hardship distribution; and d. all qualified plans maintained by the Employer provide that the Participant may not make elective contributions for the Participant's taxable year immediately following the taxable year of the hardship distribution in an amount greater than the limitation under Section 402(g) of the Code ($7,000 as adjusted) less the amount of the Participant's elective contributions for the taxable year of the hardship distribution. 6.10.3 Withdrawals pursuant to Section 6.10.1 shall be subject to the following rules and restrictions: a. Withdrawals shall be made by filing a written request with the Committee on such form and at such time as the Committee may prescribe.

All withdrawals shall be paid in a lump-sum cash payment. c. All withdrawals shall be deemed to be made pro rata from the Investment Funds in which the affected Accounts of the Participant are then invested, unless the Participant otherwise requests. 6.10.4 No income attributable to contributions made pursuant to a Salary Deferral election may be withdrawn. A Participant can resume participation as of the first day of January or July immediately following the expiration of the 12-month suspension period. 6.10.5 No withdrawals under Section 6.10 shall be made from a Participant's Rollover Contribution Account. 6.11 Loans 6.11.1 At such time as permitted by the Committee, a Participant may submit an application to borrow from his Accounts (on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall prescribe): a. an amount (subject to the limitation of Section 6.11.2(d)) not in excess of the lesser of $50,000, reduced by the excess (if any) of (i) the highest outstanding loan balance from the Plan during the one (1) year period preceding the loan over (ii) the outstanding balance on the date of the loan; or 50% of the Account balance of his Accounts on the Valuation Date coincident with or next following the filing of his loan application with the Committee, 50 b. a minimum amount which shall not be less than $1,000, and c. only if an outstanding loan amount does not exist in the Participant's Accounts. 6.11.2 If approved, each such loan shall comply with the following conditions: a. it shall be evidenced by a negotiable promissory note; b. the loan shall be subject to the rules which are contained in the Summary Plan Description; c. the loan, by its terms, must be entirely repaid within five (5) years; d. the loan shall be secured by the Participant's balance in his Accounts; provided, however, not more than 50% of the present value of the Participant's vested Account balances may be pledged as security for such loan; and e. if applicable, the Participant's spouse must consent to the loan. The consent must be in writing and must be notarized. 6.11.3 Principal and interest payments of a Participant's loan shall be credited to such Participant's Accounts.

Weinbach, Trustee EX-99 5 EXHIBIT 99.3 SUMMARY PLAN DESCRIPTION The 401(k) ELIGIBILITY The Plan is open to all full-time and part-time ADP associates who have completed one year of service and have attained age 21. Part-time associates must work at least 1,000 hours to be eligible. ENROLLMENT To enroll, you simply complete and return an enrollment form indicating: The amount you want to contribute; How you want your money invested; and The beneficiary to receive your account if you should die. Your membership in the Plan will begin with your first payroll deduction. HOW THE PLAN WORKS The basic operation of the Plan is simple. The Company adds contributions to your account. Tax savings are added to your account. You divide your money among three investment options. No taxes are paid on any earnings in your account until withdrawn, and then very favorable tax treatments may be available. CONTRIBUTING TO THE PLAN There are two types of contributions which can be made to your account: Your Contributions -- Your decision to contribute is completely voluntary. Your contributions are made from earnings before taxes are taken out -- from 1% up to 6% of your total earnings. Total earnings include any pay received during the year, including bonus, commissions, overtime pay, etc., but excluding relocation pay and car allowances. There may be restrictions on contributions from certain higher-paid associates. Company Matching Contribution--The matching contribution is made in ADP stock and is equal to 40% of the first 4% of your contributions. Once you've participated in the Plan for 60 months, beginning after January 1, 1991, the Company matching contribution will increase to 50% of the first 4% of your contributions. You must be employed as of December 31st in order to have the Company match credited to your account. Your account also grows through tax savings in two ways: Immediate Tax Savings-- Contributing from your pay before taxes are taken out instantly gives you more money to invest. Federal Withholding Taxes that would have been paid on the money you contribute are deposited instead in to the Plan. Depending on where you live or work, you may also save state and local income taxes. Tax Deferred Earnings--No taxes are paid on any earnings in the Plan until they are withdrawn. Your account will continue to grow on a tax-deferred basis. INVESTING YOUR SAVINGS The Plan offers three options for investing savings. You can choose one, two, or all three. However, the Company matching contribution must be held for two years in Company stock before it can be transferred to another investment account. The Fixed Income Fund is invested in fixed income investments, including but not limited to those issued by the U.S. government or corporations. Its purpose is to provide you with competitive rates of return and preserve your investment capital. The Diversified Equity Fund is invested in a diversified portfolio of common stock of selected, publicly owned corporations. The primary objective is growth of principal, but since the value of common stocks can decease as well as increase, the value of your account in the Diversified Equity Fund will fluctuate. The Life Insurance Option allows you to use up to 25% of your contributions to purchase permanent life insurance on your own life. If selected during your initial enrollment period, this life insurance is available without physical examination. It will build cash values which earn competitive interest rates, and it is completely portable. If you leave ADP for any reason, you can tax your policy with you, without any changes in insurance company rates or features. You may also cancel your life insurance at any time. Your contributions are divided in 25% multiples between the Fixed Income and Diversified Equity Funds. If you choose the Life Insurance Option, contributions for Life Insurance will be made first and the remainder of your contributions will be invested in the other options. You may change your investment elections in January or July each year. VESTING Vesting means you have a guaranteed right to the ADP matching contribution. Once you have three years of service, you'll be entitled to 100% of the Company match and any investment gains related to the match. If you leave ADP after two years of service but less than three, you'll be entitled to keep 50% of both the company matching contribution and investment gains. If you leave ADP before two years of service, you will not acquire ownership of any Company match. The non-vested Company match that you earned will be forfeited after five consecutive one-year breaks in service. Service is a period of time beginning from the date of employment with ADP to the date of severance from the Company, which is the earlier of: The date of discharge, retirement or death; or The first anniversary of the date continuous absence from work began for any reason other than a leave of absence. A break in service will occur if you resign, are discharged, or retire. If you were not vested at the time you left, the years of service you earned can be lost and your Company match forfeited. However, service will be restored to your original service date if you are rehired within 12 months. If you are rehired after a 12-month period, your service will be restored after you complete one year of services provided: You were not vested or 50% vested and your are reemployed prior to the fifth anniversary of the date you terminated; or You were 100% vested when you terminated employment. If you leave ADP after two years of service and receive payment of your vested Company match on or after termination of employment, the non-vested portion of your Company match will be forfeited. If you later resume employment with the Company, the forfeited amount will be restored if you repay the full amount of the distribution upon the earlier of: Five years after the date your are subsequently re- employed by the Company; or Five consecutive one-year breaks in service. However, no matter when you leave, you'll always be entitled to the value of your own contributions, tax savings, and any earnings on your contributions. DISTRIBUTIONS DURING YOUR CAREER You will automatically receive, without penalty, the full value of your account at termination of employment, onset of a disability, death, or April 1, following the year you turn 70.5. However, if the value of your account is more than $3,500, no distribution will be made without your permission. You may defer distribution of your account until age 65. You may also withdraw your contributions from the Plan in the event of a financial hardship. A Hardship Withdrawal is allowed for certain authorized purposes such as purchasing a primary home, preventing eviction from or foreclosure on your home, paying for your dependents' college education, or paying extraordinary medical expenses. A Hardship Withdrawal requires approval of the Plan Committee. All Financial Hardship Withdrawals must comply with regulations established by the IRS. These regulations place certain restrictions/limit ations on hardship withdrawals. DEATH BENEFIT In the event of your death, your spouse will receive the full value of your account. You may elect to have other beneficiaries share in the process or name beneficiaries other than your spouse. If you do, your spouse must sign a waiver form which is witnessed by a Plan representative or a notary public. LOANS You can borrow up to 50% of your vested account balance in an amount not less than $1,000, up to a maximum of $50,000. Loans must be repaid through payroll deductions within one, three, or five years, and you have to repay any outstanding loan before a new loan can be made. The interest rate paid on the loan will be equal to the prime rate at the time the loan is made plus one percentage point. Loans are available on the first day of each month. To apply for one, you must complete a loan application which must be received by the Corporate office by the fifteenth of the prior month. The Committee is responsible for administering the loan program. The participant is responsible for any loss caused by non- payment or default of a loan. 1994 CHANGES TO THE COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE PLAN, FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNTS AND SURVIVOR BENEFITS Comprehensive Health Care - Added Coverage Under Managed Care (in-network only) For: - Mammograms - Colon-Rectal Screenings - Immunizations Flexible Spending Accounts - Increased the Health Care-Plus Annual Maximum to $2500 Survivor Benefits - Added Family Coverage to the Personal Accident Insurance Plan 1994 CHANGES TO THE 401(k) PORTION OF THE RETIREMENT CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PLAN INCLUDE: Addition of Another Investment Fund - The ADP Stock Fund which is invested in ADP Stock.
