financial advisor to assist CSC in responding to any other acquisition proposals
it may receive or any other attempts to acquire control of CSC. Pursuant to the
terms of their engagement letters, Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan will receive
the following fees for their services: (a) a quarterly retainer fee of
$2,500,000 for Goldman Sachs and $1,000,000 for J.P Morgan, payable on the first
day of each three-month period during which they provide such services; and (b)
a fee of $10,000,000 for Goldman Sachs and $4,000,000 for J.P. Morgan (with the
quarterly retainer fees paid under clause (a) above credited on a one-time basis
against such fees), payable on February 11, 1999, and February 13, 1999,
respectively, in the event that CAI (and, in the case of J.P. Morgan, any other
person) has not, directly or indirectly, become the beneficial owner of more
than 50 percent of the outstanding Shares on or prior to such date. The Goldman
Sachs engagement letter also provides that in the event that CSC determines to
undertake a specific transaction as referred to in such letter, Goldman Sachs
will have the right to act on CSC's behalf in connection with such transaction
on customary terms and conditions, including customary fee provisions. The J.P.
Morgan engagement letter provides that in the event CSC determines to proceed
with a sale, merger, consolidation, business combination, or certain other
specified transactions, during the term of the engagement CSC will enter into an
amendment to the engagement letter providing for fees to J.P. Morgan in an
amount to be determined after taking into account the results obtained and the
custom and practice among investment bankers acting in similar transactions. CSC
has also agreed to reimburse Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan for their reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and expenses of counsel, and to indemnify
Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan and certain related persons against certain
liabilities in connection with their engagement.
In connection with the Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan engagements, CSC
anticipates that Gene T. Sykes, Managing Director of Goldman Sachs, Mark
Dzialga, Vice President of Goldman Sachs, Gregg R. Lemkau, Associate of Goldman
Sachs, Joseph Walker, Managing Director of J.P. Morgan, David Courtney, Managing
Director of J.P. Morgan, Todd Marin, Managing Director of J.P. Morgan, and Dag
Skattum, Managing Director of J.P. Morgan, none of whom will receive additional
compensation for such solicitation, may communicate in person, by telephone or
otherwise with a limited number of institutions, brokers or other persons who
are shareholders. Neither Goldman Sachs nor J.P. Morgan will receive any fee
for, or in connection with, such solicitation activities by its employees apart
from the fees it is otherwise entitled to receive as described above. None of
the above-named employees of Goldman Sachs and J.P.
Morgan owns any shares of CSC's common stock.
