through the granting of nonqualified stock option awards. Annual stock option grants are typically made in the first quarter of a calendar year and are based on a combination of individual performance and the market level of long-term incentive
compensation for the particular executive position. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On or about March 24,
2004, we will grant to you 100,000 options to purchase shares of EDS Common Stock. This stock option award will be granted at the fair market value (the average of the high and low trade price of EDS stock) on the grant date. The exact terms of this
award will be established by our Board of Directors in February. However, we expect this award will vest 100% in four (4) years, where half of the grant could vest after twelve months and the other half after twenty-four months if EDS&#146; stock
price increases over the grant price by 30% and 50% respectively. Your next opportunity for a long-term incentive compensation award will be in the first quarter of 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

deferrals can be &#147;invested&#148; notionally into either an interest only account or an EDS common stock equivalent account. EDS makes a 25% match on up to 15% of your base salary and 25% of your bonus if your deferrals are invested in EDS
common stock. EDS also provides a 401(k) make-up matching contribution to compensate for IRS-imposed limitations on eligible compensation. Both EDS matching contributions are effective on December 31 each year and are in the form of EDS common stock
units within the EDP. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The SERP provides a retirement income benefit over and
above what is provided in the company&#146;s qualified retirement plan and non-qualified restoration plan. The SERP benefit formula is based on final average earnings (base salary plus bonus) during a five-year period prior to your retirement as
outlined in the plan document. Under the provisions of the SERP, a participant is vested in the plan when attaining age 55 and 70 points (points equal age plus service). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
