EDS' news release dated February

<p class=fineprint align="justify"><i>&quot;Safe Harbor&quot; Statement
under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:</i>&nbsp; The
statements in this 8-K that are not historical statements, including statements
regarding expected earnings, revenue and free cash flow and the value of new
business signed, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. These statements are subject to numerous risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond EDS' control, which could cause actual
results to differ materially from such statements. These include, but are not
limited to, competition in the industries in which EDS conducts business and
the impact of competition on pricing, revenues and margins; the impact of
general economic and other conditions on the discretionary spend of EDS'
existing clients and EDS' ability to obtain new business; the degree to which
third parties continue to outsource IT and business processes; the performance
of current and future client contracts in accordance with EDS' cost, revenue
and cash flow estimates, including EDS' ability to achieve any operational efficiencies
in its estimates; for contracts with U.S federal government clients, including
EDS' Navy Marine Corps Intranet contract, the government's ability to cancel
the contract or impose additional terms and conditions due to changes in
government funding, deployment schedules or otherwise; EDS' ability to access
the capital markets, including its ability to obtain capital leases, surety
bonds and letters of credit, to arrange new client supported financing
transactions or similar facilities and continue to access existing facilities;
the impact of rating agency actions on EDS' ability to access capital and its
cost of capital as well as the impact of such actions on EDS' agreements that
contain debt rating triggers; the impact of third-party benchmarking provisions
in certain client contracts; the impact on a historical and prospective basis
of accounting rules and pronouncements; the impact of claims, litigation and
governmental investigations; the success of EDS' strategic reorganization and
cost cutting initiatives and the timing and amount of any resulting benefits;
the impact of acquisitions and divestitures; EDS' ability to attract and retain
highly skilled personnel; a reduction in the carrying value of our assets; the
impact of a bankruptcy or the financial difficulty of a significant client on
the financial and other terms of EDS' agreements with that client; the
expiration or termination of a significant client contract, including EDS'
contract with General Motors; with respect to the funding of our pension plan
obligations, the performance of EDS' investments relative to its assumed rate
of return; changes in tax laws and interpretations and failure to obtain treaty
relief from double taxation; failure to obtain or protect intellectual property
rights; and fluctuations in foreign currency, exchange rates and interest
rates. </p>
