NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(A) The non-recurring charge represents costs and expenses related to the
August 1 acquisition of The Continuum Company, Inc. The amount of the
charge, net of income tax benefits on the tax deductible portion, is
$35,280,000 or 45 cents per share. The non-recurring charge is
comprised of $11,015,000 for investment banking and other merger
expenses; $13,121,000 related to the write-off of certain capitalized
software, other assets and intangibles; and $24,793,000 related to the
elimination of duplicate data processing facilities, employee severance
costs and contract termination costs.
(B) Primary earnings per common share are based on the weighted average
number of common stock and common stock equivalent shares (dilutive stock
options) outstanding of 77,924,000 and 76,600,000 respectively, for the
six months ended September 27, 1996, and September 29, 1995 (see Part II,
Exhibit 11).
(C) No dividends were paid during the periods presented. There were
76,273,766 shares at September 27, 1996 and 75,428,622 shares at March
29, 1996 of $1.00 par value common stock issued with 331,542 and
311,928 shares, respectively, of treasury stock.
(D) Cash payments for interest on indebtedness were $20,027,000 and
$19,591,000, respectively, for the six months ended September 27, 1996,
and September 29, 1995. Cash payments for taxes on income were
$36,654,000 and $39,482,000, respectively, for the six months ended
September 27, 1996, and September 29, 1995.
(E) The financial information reported, which is not necessarily indicative
of the results for a full year, is unaudited but includes all adjustments
which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation. All such
adjustments are normal recurring adjustments.
(F) Certain reclassifications have been made to reflect the acquisition of
Continuum, which was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Continuum's expense classifications have been reclassified to conform to
CSC's presentation. Continuum's interest income has been removed from
its revenues to conform to CSC's separate presentation of interest
income. Additionally, Continuum's common stock equivalents have been
converted to CSC shares at the exchange rate of .79 and included in the
average common shares outstanding.

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Second Quarter and First Six Months of Fiscal 1997 versus
Second Quarter and First Six Months of Fiscal 1996
Revenues
The Company derived its revenues from the following market sectors for the
second quarter and first six months, respectively (dollars in millions):
<TABLE>

====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======
</TABLE>
During the quarter and six months ended September 27, 1996, the Company's
total revenue increased 20.1%, or $226 million, and 20.2%, or $448 million,
respectively, over the same periods last year. Commercial revenue growth
continued to surpass U.S. Federal Government growth, increasing 27.4%, or $207
million over the same quarter last year.
Over one-half of the second quarter commercial growth came from the Company's
international operations. International growth came principally from new
outsourcing business signed last year, from the acquisition earlier this year
of 75% of Datacentralen, a major provider of information technology services
in Denmark, and from growth in revenue from CSC's German consulting
operations.
U.S. commercial revenues grew 20.6% or $89 million during the second quarter
of fiscal 1997. Slightly more than half the growth was provided by
information technology outsourcing, with the remainder coming principally from
the company's acquisition of American Practice Management and growth at CSC
Continuum.
U.S. federal government revenue for the quarter increased 5.4% or $19 million,
principally due to new contract awards. The many new and existing task order
contracts permit the Government discretion in the extent and timing of new
orders.
During the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company announced nearly $1
billion in new federal contracts and $390 million in new commercial contracts.

<PAGE>
For the first six months, revenue growth for all market sectors reflects the
same overall trends as those described for the second quarter above. As the
Company's commercial sector revenues continued to grow faster than federal,
they comprise a larger percentage of total CSC revenue, as shown by the
following table:

</TABLE>
Compared with the second quarter of fiscal 1996, total costs and expenses
improved slightly as a percentage of revenue for the second quarter and the
first six months ended September 27, 1996. Costs of services as a percentage
of revenue increased principally due to lower utilization and increased use of
subcontractor labor in the Company's European operations, as well as an
increase in costs of services as a percentage of revenues in the Company's
domestic consulting operations. Although the European costs of services
increased as a percentage of revenue, the European operations improved their
selling, general and administrative cost percentage as compared to the same
quarter and six months ended last year. The European improvement contributed
to the overall reduction in the selling, general and administrative percentage
from 9.94% during last year's second quarter to 8.58% for the current year's
second quarter.

<PAGE>
Non-Recurring Charge
The non-recurring charge represents costs and expenses related to the August 1
acquisition of The Continuum Company, Inc. The amount of the charge, net of
income tax benefits on the tax deductible portion, is $35,280,000 or 45 cents
per share. The non-recurring charge is comprised of $11,015,000 for
investment banking and other merger expenses; $13,121,000 related to the
write-off of certain capitalized software, other assets and intangibles; and
$24,793,000 related to the elimination of duplicate data processing
facilities, employee severance costs and contract termination costs.
Income Before Taxes
Income before taxes and before the non-recurring charge was $75.9 million for
the current quarter, up $13.0 million, or 20.7%, over last year's second
quarter, reflecting the Company's revenue growth. The Company's profit margin
before taxes and the non-recurring charge improved from 5.57% to 5.60% for the
second quarter and from 5.40% to 5.55% for the six months ended September 27,
1996.
Net Income
Net income before the non-recurring charge was $49.3 million for the second
quarter of fiscal 1997, up $9.7 million, or 19.7%, over the same quarter last
year. The effective tax rate was 35.1%, versus 37.1%. The lower current tax
rate is primarily due to the reinstatement of the research and engineering tax
credit in the U.S. and the impact of the Company's August 1, 1996 merger with
Continuum. This year's second quarter earnings per share before the non-
recurring charge of 63 cents increased 23.5% over the 51 cents for last year's
second quarter. On a year to date basis, earnings per share before the non-
recurring charge was $1.21, up 22 cents, or 18.2% over the same period for the
previous fiscal year.
Cash Flows
Cash provided by operating activities was $89.8 million for the six months
ended, compared with $14.2 million during the same period last year. The
increase in operating cash flows is principally due to higher non-cash
expenses for depreciation and amortization, and favorable changes in working
capital.
The Company's cash expenditures for investing activities totaled $347.2
million for the most recent six months versus $224.4 million during the same
period of last year. The increase principally relates to the acquisitions of
Datacentralen and American Practice Management, and higher investments in
computers and related equipment.
Cash provided by financing activities was $185.4 million for the most recent
six months versus $58.6 million for the same period last year.
9
<PAGE>
Financial Condition
During the first six months of fiscal 1997, the Company's capital outlays
included $321.3 million of business investments in the form of fixed asset
purchases and acquisitions. These amounts were funded from operating cash
flows, additional debt and existing cash, which decreased from $113.9 million
to $41.9 million. As a result of the net increase in borrowings, the
Company's debt-to-total capitalization ratio increased to 31.5% at September
27, 1996 versus 26.3% at March 29, 1996.
It is management's opinion that the Company will be able to meet its liquidity
and cash needs for the foreseeable future through the combination of cash
flows from operating activities, unused borrowing capacity and other financing
activities, including the issuance of debt and/or equity securities.

Part II. Other Information
Item 2. Changes in Securities.
Pursuant to the Rights Agreement between the Company and ChaseMellon
Shareholder Services, L.L.C., as Rights Agent, one Preferred Stock Purchase
Right is attached to each outstanding share of Common Stock. Consequently,
the amendment to the Company's Restated Articles of Incorporation increasing
the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 75,000,000 to
275,000,000, effective as of August 1, 1996, also had the effect of increasing
the number of authorized Rights from 75,000,000 to 275,000,000 as of that
date.
In order to ensure that an adequate number of shares of the Company's Series A
Junior Participating Preferred Stock are authorized and reserved for issuance
upon exercise of this increased number of Rights, the Board of Directors of
the Company amended and restated the Rights Agreement. Prior to the
amendment, the Rights Agreement provided that: (1) upon the occurrence of
certain events, each Right became exercisable to purchase 1/400 of a share of
Series A Preferred Stock, and (2) each 1/400 of a share of Series A Preferred
Stock had the same dividend and liquidation rights as one share of Common
Stock. As a consequence of the amendment, which became effective August 1,
1996, the Rights Agreement now provides that: (i) upon the occurrence of the
same events, each Right will become exercisable to purchase 1/4000 of a share
of Series A Preferred Stock, and (ii) each 1/4000 of a share of Series A
Preferred Stock has the same dividend and liquidation rights as one share of
Common Stock.
Since each Right will now be exercisable, under certain circumstances, to
purchase 1/4000 of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, the 200,000 authorized
shares of Series A Preferred Stock, each of which is reserved for issuance
upon exercise of the Rights, will now be sufficient to permit the exercise in
full of the 275,000,000 authorized Rights.
The Amended and Restated Rights Agreement is incorporated herein by reference
to the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 1, 1996.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security-Holders.
a. The Company held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders on July 31, 1996.
b. Proxies for the Annual Meeting were solicited pursuant to Regulation 14

EXHIBIT 10.11
COMPUTER SCIENCES CORPORATION
SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN
ARTICLE I
Purpose
-------
The purpose of this Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("Supplemental
Plan") is to provide retirement benefits to designated officers and key
executives of Computer Sciences Corporation (the "Company") in addition to
retirement benefits that may be payable under the Computer Sciences
Corporation Employee Pension Plan, and in addition to any other retirement
plan (other than the social security system to the extent provided herein)
under which benefits may be payable with respect to such person.
It is intended that this Supplemental Plan be a plan "for a select group
of management or highly compensated employees" as set forth in Section 201(2)
of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
Benefits under this Supplemental Plan shall be payable solely from the
general assets of the Company and no Participant or other person shall be
entitled to look to any source for payment of such benefits other than the
general assets of the Company.
ARTICLE II
Effective Date/Restatement Date
-------------------------------
The Supplemental Plan was effective as of September 1, 1985. It is hereby
amended and restated effective November 4, 1996.
ARTICLE III
Participants
------------
No person shall be a Participant in this Supplemental Plan unless (a)
such individual is specifically designated as such in a written instrument
executed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the "Chief Executive
Officer"), and (b) such individual has consented to be governed by the terms
of this Supplemental Plan by execution of a written instrument in form
satisfactory to the Company.
A person shall cease to be a Participant in this Supplemental Plan in the
event of (a) a Plan amendment having such effect, or (b) the occurrence of an
event described in this Supplemental Plan which terminates such participation,
or (c) the Chief Executive Officer notifies such person, in writing, of the
discontinuance of
<PAGE>
such person's participation pursuant to Article XVIII of this Supplemental
Plan. In determining whether any person shall commence or cease to be a
Participant herein, the Chief Executive Officer, acting in such capacity,
shall have complete and unfettered discretion.
ARTICLE IV
Retirement Benefits
-------------------
The amount of retirement benefit payable to each Participant upon
Separation from Service (as defined in paragraph (d) below) shall be as
determined in this Article IV.
(a) A Participant who is entitled to receive a benefit under the
Computer Sciences Corporation Employee Pension Plan ("Pension Plan"), shall be
entitled to receive his Excess Benefit under this Supplemental Plan upon being
fully vested under the Pension Plan. The Excess Benefit is the additional
monthly amount which the Participant would otherwise be entitled to receive
under the Pension Plan as if the Participant had elected the normal form of
life annuity payment option under the Pension Plan except for the limitations
imposed by Sections 401(a)(17) and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code, as
amended. In addition to the benefit described in this paragraph (a), a benefit
as described in paragraph (b) following shall be payable to the Participant.
(b) Each Participant, upon Separation from Service on or after
attainment of age sixty-two (62) (the "Retirement Date"), shall receive an
amount as determined under this paragraph (b) which is payable monthly in the
form of a life annuity. The amount payable shall be equal to one-twelfth
(1/12) of fifty percent (50%) of the Participant's Average Base Salary Rate
(as defined in paragraph (d) below) reduced by the amount determined under
paragraph (c) below and, as applicable, paragraph (e) below.
(c) The amount determined under this paragraph (c) shall generally be
equal to the primary social security benefit paid or payable to the
Participant at the time benefits commence under this Supplemental Plan,
whether or not the Participant is denied social security benefits because of
other income or voluntarily forgoes social security income. However, where a
Participant commences to receive benefits under this Supplemental Plan prior
to the date that he is entitled to commence receiving social security benefits
(currently age sixty-two (62)), his benefits under this Plan shall be reduced,
by the amount of social security benefits it is estimated he would be entitled
to receive monthly. The estimated social security benefit will be calculated
based on the Participant's compensation through his Separation from Service
date as though he were age sixty-two (62) on such date, and in accordance with
social security rules in effect at the time of his Separation from Service.
If the Participant has qualified for a special early separation benefit
pursuant to paragraph (b) of Article V, then a five percent (5%)
2
<PAGE>
annual reduction factor, with proportionate fractional reduction for periods
of fewer than twelve (12) months, shall be applied to the estimated social
security benefit for the period between the date of the Participant's
Separation from Service and the date he is expected to attain age sixty-two
(62). By way of example, if a Participant otherwise entitled to benefits
commencing at age sixty-two (62) retires at age sixty (60) and qualifies for a
special early separation benefit pursuant to paragraph (b) of Article V and
the Participant's social security benefit is assumed to be $8,000 a year at
the projected age of sixty-two (62), then the estimated annual social security
benefit determined under this paragraph (c) will be $7,200, which is the
$8,000 reduced at 5% per year for two years, or 10% .
(d) The term "Base Salary Rate" means the annual salary rate of a
Participant exclusive of overtime, bonus, incentive or any other type of
special compensation. The term "Average Base Salary Rate" means the average of
the highest three (3) of the last five (5) Base Salary Rates of a Participant
which are the Base Salary Rates in effect on his Retirement Date and on the
same day and month for each of the four (4) years (or the period of Continuous
Service if fewer than four (4) years) immediately preceding the Retirement
Date.
Unless otherwise determined in writing with respect to a Participant by
the Chief Executive Officer, the term "Continuous Service" means the period of
service without interruption of a person commencing as of the date of hire of
such person by the Company or an Affiliate and ending on the date of
separation from service for any reason from the Company and all Affiliates
("Separation from Service"). The term "Affiliate" means a corporation or other
entity of which fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the capital stock or
capital or profits interest (in the case of a noncorporate entity) is directly
or indirectly owned by the Company. A medical leave of absence not exceeding
twelve (12) months authorized by a Company written policy or any other leave
of absence authorized by a Company written policy or approved in writing by
the Chief Executive Officer shall not be deemed an interruption in Continuous
Service or a Separation from Service.
In the event the Company acquires a corporation or other entity
("Acquisition"), and any employee of the Acquisition, by written determination
of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, becomes a Participant in the
Supplemental Plan, such Participant's period of Continuous Service shall
commence no sooner than the date the Acquisition becomes an Affiliate of the
Company unless the Company's Chief Executive Officer otherwise determines and
so confirms in writing.
(e) If upon Separation from Service on or after attaining age sixty-two
(62), or upon the granting of a special early separation benefit pursuant to
paragraph (b) of Article V, a Participant has fewer than twelve (12) years of
Continuous Service, the benefit otherwise payable under this Supplemental Plan
shall be proportionately reduced, except for the benefit payable under
paragraph (a)
3
<PAGE>
of this Article IV which shall not be reduced. By way of example, if a
Participant otherwise entitled to benefits hereunder commencing at age sixty-
two (62) has completed only ten (10) years of Continuous Service upon
attainment of age sixty-two (62), such Participant's benefit shall be 10/12,
or 83.33%, of the benefit otherwise payable hereunder.
Unless expressly determined to the contrary in writing by the Chief
Executive Officer, no period of service completed by a person after attainment
of age sixty-five (65) and no adjustment to any person's Base Salary Rate
which occurs after attainment of age sixty-five (65) shall be taken into
account in computing benefits hereunder.
ARTICLE V
Eligibility for Benefits
------------------------
(a) Participants shall become eligible to commence receiving retirement
benefits under this Supplemental Plan after Separation from Service on or
after attaining age sixty-two (62) and such benefits shall be calculated in
accordance with the provisions of Article IV. Except as otherwise provided in
paragraph (a) of Article IV and in Articles Vll, IX and X, no Participant in
this Supplemental Plan shall have any vested interest in or right to receive a
benefit hereunder until attainment of the age of sixty-two (62). Unless
otherwise determined in writing by the Chief Executive Officer, any
interruption in the Continuous Service of a Participant herein prior to the
attainment of age sixty-two (62) shall terminate the participation in this
Supplemental Plan of such Participant, and no benefit shall be payable to or
with respect to such Participant.
(b) In the sole and unfettered discretion of the Chief Executive
Officer, a Participant whose Separation from Service occurs prior to
attainment of age sixty-two (62) may qualify for a special early separation
benefit, payable monthly as calculated in accordance with the provisions of
Article IV, except as follows:
(i) For purposes of determining the Participant's Base Salary Rate,
the Average Base Salary Rate and the number of years of Continuous Service
completed by the Participant, the Participant's date of Separation from
Service shall apply instead of the date of the Participant's attainment of age
sixty-two (62); and
(ii) For each twelve (12) month period by which the date of
commencement of the Participant's benefit precedes the Participant's sixty-
second (62nd) birthday, the benefit otherwise payable shall be reduced by five
percent (5%), except for the benefit payable under paragraph (a) of Article IV
which shall not be reduced. Proportionate fractional reduction shall be used
for periods of fewer than twelve (12) months.
4
<PAGE>
ARTICLE VI
Form of Benefit Payments
------------------------
(a) Except as provided in Article Vll, benefits payable based on the
calculations in Article IV of this Supplemental Plan shall be paid monthly for
the life-time of the Participant (unless an optional form is selected under
paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Article Vl). Upon the death of the Participant,
benefits shall continue to be paid to the Participant's spouse for the
lifetime of such spouse at the rate of fifty percent (50%) of Participant's
benefit, provided certain conditions are met. The conditions of such Spousal
Benefit are (1) that the spouse shall be married to the Participant as of the
date of the Participant's Separation from Service and (2) the spouse shall be
no more than five years younger than the Participant. In the event the spouse
is more than five years younger than the Participant, the Participant may
elect to receive benefit payments in the form of a joint and survivor option
as described in paragraph (c) following.
(b) Any Participant, who before September 1, 1993 has commenced to
receive benefits and has not made a written election to receive an annuity
pursuant to paragraph (a) preceding or paragraph (c) following, shall be
entitled to one hundred twenty (120) monthly benefit payments in the amount
specified in paragraph (b) of Article IV preceding and a life annuity of the
Excess Benefit as defined in paragraph (a) of Article IV preceding. If a
Participant, who before September 1, 1993, has commenced to receive benefits
and has not made a written election to receive an annuity pursuant to
paragraph (a) preceding or paragraph (c) following, dies after Separation from
Service and before receiving one hundred and twenty (120) monthly benefit
payments, the remainder of the one hundred and twenty (120) monthly benefit
payments shall be made to the Participant's designated beneficiary or, if no
such beneficiary is then living or no such beneficiary can be located, to the
Participant's estate. In the event a Participant has made a written election,
prior to September 1, 1993, to receive an annuity pursuant to paragraph (a)
preceding or paragraph (c) following, no benefit shall be payable under this
paragraph (b), except that any Excess Benefit under the Pension Plan, as
provided in paragraph (a) of Article IV, shall be payable at the rate of fifty
percent (50%) thereof to the Participant's spouse.
(c) In the event that the Participant's spouse is more than five years
younger than Participant, at any time prior to the later of September 1, 1993
or the commencement of benefits under this Supplemental Plan, a Participant
may, in lieu of receiving benefits in the form described in paragraph (a) of
this Article Vl, elect to receive benefit payments under this Supplemental
Plan in the form of a joint and survivor option providing monthly benefits for
the lifetime of the Participant with a stipulated percentage of such amount
continued after the Participant's death to the spouse to whom the Participant
is married as of the date of the Participant's Separation from Service, for
the lifetime of such spouse. The amount of monthly
5
<PAGE>
payments available under this option shall be determined by reference to
factors such as the Participant's life expectancy, the life expectancy of the
Participant's spouse, prior benefits received under the Supplemental Plan, and
the percentage of the Participant's monthly benefit which is continued after
the Participant's death to the Participant's spouse, so that the value of the
joint and survivor option is the actuarial equivalent of the benefits
otherwise payable under paragraph (a) (or paragraph (b) if the Participant has
elected coverage under paragraph (b) preceding) of this Article Vl inclusive
of the Participant and the spousal fifty percent (50%) survivor benefits,
which shall be calculated assuming the Participant's spouse was exactly five
years younger than Participant. In determining the monthly amount payable
under the joint and survivor option with respect to any Participant, the
Company may rely upon such information as it, in its sole discretion, deems
reliable, including but not limited to, the opinion of an enrolled actuary or
annuity purchase rates quoted by an insurance company licensed to conduct an
insurance business in the State of California. The election of a joint and
survivor option is irrevocable after benefit payments have commenced, and the
monthly amount payable during the lifetime of the Participant shall in no
event be adjusted by reason of the death of the Participant's spouse prior to
the death of the Participant, or by reason of the dissolution of the marriage
between the Participant and such spouse, or for any other reason.
ARTICLE VII
Pre-retirement Death Benefits
-----------------------------
In the event of the death of a Participant hereunder during a period of
Continuous Service and participation in this Supplemental Plan, the
beneficiary or the spouse of the Participant shall be entitled to benefits as
provided below in paragraphs (a) and (b):
(a) Participant's spouse shall be entitled to a fifty percent (50%) or
the actuarial equivalent spousal benefit (as determined pursuant to Article
Vl, paragraphs (a) or (c), as applicable), attributable to Participant's
Excess Benefit under the Pension Plan provided the Participant is entitled to
receive a benefit under the Pension Plan.
(b) At the written election of the Participant, either a benefit under
paragraph (i) below or a benefit under paragraph (ii) below shall be paid by
the Company. Such election shall be signed by the Participant and notarized
and, if the Participant is married at the time of election, the election must
also be signed by the Participant's spouse and notarized. The latest election
on file in the Company's records shall be controlling.
(i) A lump sum death benefit shall be payable by the Company to the
Participant's designated beneficiary or, if no such beneficiary is then living
or no such beneficiary can be located, to the Participant's estate.
6

to any employee or former employee or any other person. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, this Supplemental Plan may not be amended, modified,
suspended or terminated as to a Participant whose Separation from Service has
occurred and who is entitled to receive or has commenced to receive benefits
under this Supplemental Plan, without the express written consent of such
Participant or, if deceased, such Participant's designated beneficiary or, if

Participant's legal representative.
If within three (3) years following a Change in Control (as defined in

<PAGE>
suspension or termination taking into account Continuous Service to such date
and the Average Base Salary Rate of the Participant(s) as of such date. Upon

immediately to receive benefits under Articles IV, V, Vl, Vll and X, as
applicable, as such Articles were in effect on the date of such Change in
Control, without regard to the approval of the Chief Executive Officer or any
other person(s).
ARTICLE X
Change in Control
-----------------
The term "Change in Control" means, after the effective date of this
Supplemental Plan, (a) the acquisition by any person, entity or group (as
defined in Section 13(d)3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
as beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the combined voting power of the
then outstanding securities of the Company, (b) a change during any period of
two (2) consecutive years of a majority of the Board of Directors as
constituted as of the beginning of such period, unless the election of each
director who was not a director at the beginning of such period was approved
by vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then in office who were
directors at the beginning of such period, (c) a sale of substantially all of
the property and assets of the Company, (d) a merger, consolidation,
reorganization or other business combination to which the Company is a party
and the consummation of which results in the outstanding voting securities of
the Company being exchanged for or converted into cash, property and/or
securities not issued by the Company, or (e) any other event constituting a
change in control of the Company for purposes of Schedule 14A of Regulation
14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
In the event a Participant who was a Participant as of the date of a
Change in Control either (a) has a voluntary Separation from Service for any
reason (including the death of the Participant) more than twelve (12) full
calendar months after, but within thirty-six (36) full calendar months
following, such Change in Control, or (b) has an involuntary Separation from
Service for any reason within thirty-six full calendar months following such
Change in Control, such Participant shall be entitled to receive immediately
upon such Separation from Service benefits hereunder in accordance with
Articles IV, Vl and Vll, as applicable, without regard to approval by the
Chief Executive Officer or any other person(s). Such benefits shall be
calculated as if, on the date of such Separation from Service, the Participant
(i) had completed a number of years of Continuous Service equal to the greater
of twelve (12) or the actual number of years of his or her Continuous Service,
and (ii) had attained an age equal to the greater of sixty-two (62) or his or

The failure of the Company, the Chief Executive Officer or any other
person acting on behalf thereof to demand a Participant or other person
claiming rights with respect to a Participant to perform any act which such
person is or may be required to perform hereunder shall not constitute a
waiver of such requirement or a waiver of the right to require such act. The
exercise of or failure to exercise any discretion reserved to the Company, its
Chief Executive Officer or his delegate, to grant or deny any benefit to any
Participant or other person under this Supplemental Plan shall in no way
require the Company, its Chief Executive Officer

the period for which such payment that is to be made times (ii) the weighted

rating) or is disclosed to the Corporation (in the case of a private rating).
If Ratings are unavailable from both S&P or Moody's for any reason for any

for such day shall be deemed to be Level 5 (or, if the Majority Lenders
consent in writing, such other Level as may be reasonably determined by the
Majority Lenders from a rating with respect to Long-Term Debt or the
Corporation for such day established by another rating agency reasonably
acceptable to the Majority Lenders). If no Rating is available from S&P or
