                  RAYTHEON CLOSES TEXAS INSTRUMENTS TRANSACTION


              LEXINGTON, Mass., (July 11, 1997) Raytheon Company

         announced today that it has completed its acquisition of the

         Texas Instruments' defense business.


              Raytheon announced in January that it had reached

         agreement to purchase the assets of Texas Instruments' defense

         operations for $2.95 billion.  The company received Justice

         Department approval of the transaction on July 2nd.  Raytheon

         also announced in January that it had entered into agreements

         with Hughes Electronics to bring about a merger between Hughes'

         defense operations and Raytheon.  That transaction is valued at

         $9.5 billion.


              Dennis J. Picard, Raytheon's chairman and chief executive

         officer, said, "The industry has changed substantially in the

         short period of time between Justice Department approval and

         today's closing of the Texas Instruments' transaction.

         Completing the TI deal today, and Hughes by the end of the

         year, will help Raytheon to compete effectively in a rapidly

         consolidating industry," he said.


              "Raytheon will then have the necessary size and scope to

         compete against other, larger firms with leadership positions

         in key defense electronics markets," Mr. Picard said.

         ITEM 5.        OTHER EVENTS.

                   As previously disclosed in Raytheon Company's
         ("Raytheon") current report on Form 8-K dated January 6, 1997,
         Raytheon and Texas Instruments Incorporated ("Texas Instru-
         ments") entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which
         Raytheon agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of,
         and to assume substantially all of the liabilities related to,
         the Defense Systems and Electronics business of Texas Instru-
         ments ("TI Defense"), for $2.95 billion in cash, subject to
         certain adjustments (the "Asset Purchase").  Consummation of
         the Asset Purchase is subject to certain conditions, including
         the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period
         under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976,
         as amended ("HSR Act").  On March 14, 1997, the parties received 
         a request from the Department of Justice ("DOJ") for further 
         information in connection with its review of the transaction.  
         Raytheon and Texas Instruments certified substantial compliance
         with the request on May 5, 1997 and May 16, 1997, respectively.
         The waiting period under the HSR Act will expire on June 5, 1997 
         unless such period is earlier terminated by the DOJ or the period 
         is extended by agreement of the parties.  Raytheon expects the 
         transaction to close in the second quarter of 1997.

                   In Raytheon's current report on Form 8-K dated Janu-
         ary 16, 1997, Raytheon also announced that Raytheon and HE
         Holdings, Inc. ("HEH"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of
         General Motors Corporation ("GM"), have entered into a defini-
         tive agreement to merge (the "Merger Agreement"), with the com-
         bined company to be named Raytheon Company (the "Merger").
         Prior to the Merger, GM and certain of its affiliates will con-
         summate certain transactions, including a spin-off of HEH
         (which will then consist primarily of the aerospace and defense
         systems businesses ("Hughes Defense") of Hughes Electronics 
         Corporation, the parent corporation of HEH) to GM stockholders.  
         The Merger is subject to satisfaction of various conditions, 
         including the expiration or termination of the applicable
         waiting period under the HSR Act.  On April 26, 1997, the parties
         received a request for further information from the DOJ in 
         connection with its review of the proposed Merger.  Both parties 
         are currently working to comply with the request.  The Merger is 
         also subject to certain other conditions, including certain 
         regulatory approvals and the approval of stockholders of both 
         companies.  The transaction is expected to close in the third 
         quarter of 1997.

                   Certain audited financial information for (a) TI
         Defense and (b) Hughes Defense as well as unaudited pro forma

         Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, and 99.3, respectively.  In addition certain

         is set forth in Exhibits 99.4 and 99.5, respectively.<PAGE>

                          Report of Independent Auditors



         The Board of Directors
         Texas Instruments Incorporated

         We have audited the accompanying statements of assets to be
         acquired and liabilities to be assumed of the Defense Business
         of Texas Instruments Incorporated (the "Defense Business" as
         defined in Note 1) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
         related statements of income and cash flows for each of the
         three years in the period ended December 31, 1996.  These
         financial statements are the responsibility of the management
         of Texas Instruments Incorporated.  Our responsibility is to
         express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
         audit.

         We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
         auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
         perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
         the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An
         audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
         the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An
         audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
         and significant estimates made by management, as well as
         evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
         believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
         opinion.

         In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
         present fairly, in all material respects, the assets to be
         acquired and liabilities to be assumed of the Defense Business
         at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its
         operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
         the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

         1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Texas Instruments Incorporated ("TI") and Raytheon Company (the
         "Buyer") entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement")
         on January 4, 1997 under which, on the contractually designated
         closing date, the Buyer will acquire TI's Defense Systems and
         Electronics business ("DS&E"), TI's Smart Antenna business,
         TI's Commercial Uncooled IR business, TI's wholly owned
         subsidiary SAVI Technology, Inc., and certain corporate and
         other assets and liabilities of TI described below (such
         businesses and certain corporate and other assets and
         liabilities of TI together are referred to as the "Defense
         Business").  The financial statements present the assets to be
         acquired and liabilities to be assumed and results of
         operations and cash flows of the Defense Business based upon
         the structure of the transaction as described in the Agreement,
         and this transaction is herein referred to as the Acquisition.

         The financial statements are not intended to be a complete
         presentation of the financial position, results of operations
         and cash flows as if the Defense Business had operated as a
         stand-alone company.  The financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         principles which require management to make estimates and
         assumptions, in particular estimates of anticipated contract
         costs and revenues utilized in the earnings recognition
         process, that affect the amounts reported in the financial
         statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
         Intercompany balances and transactions within the Defense
         Business have been eliminated.

         The Defense Business is engaged in the research, development,
         and manufacture of advanced defense systems, including tactical
         missiles, precision guided weapons, radar, night vision
         systems, and electronic warfare systems.  The Defense Business
         operates in one industry segment, and the principal markets
         served include the military forces of the United States,
         aerospace prime contractors, international military customers
         and commercial customers who procure components and subsystems.

         The statements of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be
         assumed include certain TI corporate property (see Note 4) and
         certain TI pension plan and retiree health care benefit assets
         and obligations related to employees of the Defense Business
         (see Note 10).

         TI provides various services to the Defense Business including,
         but not limited to, facilities management, data processing,
         security, payroll and employee benefits administration,
         insurance administration, duplicating and telecommunications
         services.  TI allocates these expenses and all other central
         operating costs, first on the basis of direct usage when
         identifiable, with the remainder allocated among TI's
         businesses on the basis of their respective revenues,
         headcount, or other measures.  In the opinion of management of
         TI, these methods of allocating costs are reasonable.  These
         expenses totaled $162.7 



                                                                       7<PAGE>

         million, $168.5 million, and $161.3 million in 1996, 1995, and
         1994, respectively.  Such expense allocations to the Defense
         Business are allowable overhead costs on government contracts,
         with the exception of certain unallowable amounts which are not
         material.

         Sales from the Defense Business to affiliates of TI approxi-
         mated $27.2 million in 1996, $19.4 million in 1995, and $17.4
         million in 1994.  These amounts have been included in the
         statements of income.  See also Note 14.

         The Defense Business participates in a centralized cash manage-
         ment system wherein cash receipts are transferred to and cash
         disbursements are funded by TI.  Since cash and cash equiva-
         lents related to the Defense Business operations will not be
         acquired by the Buyer, they are excluded from the statements of
         assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed.


         Significant accounting policies are designated below as an
         integral part of the notes to financial statements to which the
         policies relate.

         receivable under subcontracts with government prime contrac-
         tors.  Unreimbursed costs and fees relate to accrued but

                                                 ==========   ========

         Inventories related to long-term contracts are stated at actual
         production costs, including manufacturing overhead and special
         tooling and engineering costs, reduced by amounts identified
         with revenues recognized on units delivered or with progress
         completed.  Such inventories are reduced by charging any
         amounts in excess of estimated realizable value to cost of
         revenues.  The costs attributed to units delivered under long-
         term contracts are based on the estimated average cost of all
         units to be produced under existing contracts and are deter-
         mined under the learning curve concept, which anticipates a
         predictable decrease in unit costs as tasks and production
         techniques become more efficient through repetition.  Produc-
         tion costs included in inventories in excess of the estimated
         cost of in-process inventories (on the basis of estimated
         average cost of all units to be produced) were not material.

         4.  PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT

         Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost less accumu-
         lated depreciation.  Depreciation is computed primarily using
         the sum-of-the-years-digits method for buildings and improve-
         ments and the double declining-balance method for machinery and
         equipment.  Fully depreciated assets are written off against
         accumulated depreciation.  Maintenance and repairs are charged
         to expense.

         In 1995, TI made three business acquisitions which are included
         within the Defense Business.  The combined cash purchase prices
         totaled approximately $57.8 million.  Of this amount, $47.1
         million of goodwill was recorded to reflect the excess of cash
         paid for these businesses over the fair values of their net
         assets.  The goodwill for these acquisitions is being amortized
         on a straight-line basis over 7 to 10 year periods.

         As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Defense Business had for-
         ward currency exchange contracts outstanding of $22.1 million
         and $88.9 million, respectively, to hedge specific firm commit-
         ments for multi-year product sale transactions denominated in
         pound sterling.  The carrying amounts and current market settl-
         ement values of the forward contracts as of December 31, 1996
         and 1995 were not significant.  The forward currency exchange
         contracts are used to minimize the adverse impacts from the
         effect of exchange rate fluctuations on the Defense Business'
         specific commitments to sell products.  In order to minimize
         its exposure to credit risk, the Defense Business limits its
         counterparties on the forward currency exchange contracts to
         investment-grade rated financial institutions.

         Financial instruments which subject the Defense Business to
         concentrations of credit risk primarily relate to accounts re-
         ceivable.  Contracts involving the U.S. government do not
         require collateral or other security.  The Defense Business
         conducts ongoing credit evaluations of domestic non-U.S.
         Government customers and generally does not require collateral
         or other security from these customers.  The Defense Business
         generally requires international customers to furnish letters
         of credit or make advance payments in amounts sufficient to
         limit the Defense Business' credit risk to a minimal level.
         Historically, the Defense Business has not incurred any
         significant credit-related losses.

         8.  CONTRACT REVENUE RECOGNITION

         Revenues under long-term fixed price and fixed-price incentive
         contracts are recognized as deliveries are made or as
         performance targets are achieved.  Revenues under long-term
         cost reimbursement contracts are recorded as costs are incurred
         and include estimated earned fees.

         Expected profits or losses on contracts are based on management
         estimates of total sales values and costs at completion.  These
         estimates are reviewed and revised periodically throughout the
         lives of the contracts, and adjustments resulting from such
         revisions are recorded in the periods in which the revisions
         are made.  In certain cases the estimated sales values include
         amounts expected to be realized from contract adjustments or
         claims subject to negotiations.  Losses on contracts are
         recorded in full as they are identified.

         The Defense Business accounts for general and administrative
         costs as period costs for contract accounting purposes except
         in circumstances in which contract revenues are not estimated
         to be sufficient to cover actual production costs, including
         manufacturing overhead and allocable general and administrative
         overhead ("loss contract situation").  In a loss contract
         situation the loss recorded includes, therefore, future
         allocable general and administrative costs.  As of December 31,
         1996 and December 31, 1995, net contract inventories have been
         reduced by $14.8 million and $24.8 million, respectively, for
         future general and administrative costs.

         Revenues under United States Government prime contracts
         approximated $1,038 million in 1996, $978 million in 1995 and
         $985 million in 1994.  Percentages of United States Government
         sales by contract type were as follows:

         A portion of work performed for the United States Government is
         under contracts that contain cost or performance incentives or
         both.  These incentives provide for increases in fees or
         profits for surpassing stated targets or other criteria, or for
         decreases in fees or profits for failure to achieve such
         targets or other criteria.  Performance incentives are included
         in sales at the time there is sufficient information to relate
         actual performance to targets or other criteria.

         9.  RENTAL EXPENSE AND LEASE COMMITMENTS

         The Defense Business occupies various facilities which are
         either owned or leased by TI (see Note 4).  The statements of
         income include occupancy charges from TI of $25.7 million,
         $28.6 million, and $29.3 million in 1996, 1995, and 1994,
         respectively.  These charges include depreciation, rent, and
         taxes (as applicable) incurred by TI and allocated to the
         Defense Business based on the square footage of facilities
         occupied.  The occupancy charges historically allocated to the
         Defense Business do not necessarily represent current market
         rates to lease such facilities.  TI will execute lease
         agreements with the Buyer at agreed-upon rates in connection
         with TI-owned facilities that will be utilized by the Buyer
         after the Acquisition is completed.

         The Defense Business also directly leases certain facilities
         and equipment from third parties under operating leases, many
         of which contain renewal options and escalation clauses.  Total
         rental expense on such operating leases amounted to $2.8
         million, $3.5 million, and $5.9 million in 1996, 1995, and
         1994, respectively.  The following indicates minimum rental
         commitments in succeeding years under these Defense Business
         leases (in millions):  1997:  $4.2; 1998:  $2.5; 1999:  $0.7.

         In connection with the Acquisition, TI will assign to the Buyer
         certain non-cancelable operating lease commitments with third
         parties.  The following indicates minimum rental commitments in
         succeeding years under these TI leases (in millions):  1997:
         $7.5; 1998:  $6.4; 1999:  $5.9; 2000:  $3.0; 2001:  $1.9; Later
         years:  $2.4.

         10.  PROFIT SHARING AND RETIREMENT PLANS

         The Defense Business participates in various incentive plans
         provided by TI for its employees, including general profit
         sharing and savings programs as well as an annual incentive
         plan for key employees.  The Defense Business also participates
         in TI pension and retiree health care benefit plans.  Pursuant
         to the Agreement, liabilities pertaining to employees of the
         Defense Business pension and retiree health care benefit plans
         are to be assumed by the Buyer.  Profit sharing expense has
         been allocated to the Defense Business by TI based on relative
         payroll costs, and accrued retirement costs for the Defense
         Business have been separately determined based upon the Defense
         Business participants in the retirement plans of TI.



                                                                      13<PAGE>

         PROFIT SHARING

         There was no profit sharing expense in 1996.  Profit sharing
         expense for the Defense Business was $67.3 million in 1995 and
         $42.1 million in 1994.  Under the plan, TI contributes a
         portion of its net profits equal to 25% of the amount by which
         consolidated income (as defined) before profit sharing and
         income taxes exceeds 8% of TI's consolidated average assets for
         the year.  For profit sharing earned by eligible participants
         in 1993 and prior, the contributions have been invested in TI
         common stock.  For profit sharing earned by employees in 1994
         and thereafter, several investment options in addition to TI
         common stock have been made available.  And, for 1995 and
         thereafter, 50% of the profit sharing earned by employees is
         not contributed to a deferred plan but is paid as cash to the
         eligible participants.

         SAVINGS PROGRAM

         The Defense Business participates in the TI matched savings
         program whereby employees' contributions of up to 4% of their
         salary are matched by TI at the rate of 50 cents per dollar.
         Contributions are subject to statutory limitations.  The
         contributions may be invested in several investment funds
         including TI common stock.  The expense under this program
         charged by TI to the Defense Business was $8.1 million in 1996,
         $7.5 million in 1995 and $7.7 million in 1994.

         PENSION PLAN

         TI has a defined benefit plan which covers employees of the
         Defense Business and provides benefits based on years of
         service and employee's compensation.  The plan is a career-
         average-pay plan which has been amended periodically in the
         past to produce approximately the same results as a final-pay
         type plan.  The expected effects of such amendments have been
         considered in calculating pension expense.  TI's funding policy
         is to contribute to the plan at least the minimum amount
         required by ERISA.  Plan assets consist primarily of common
         stock, U.S. government obligations, commercial paper, and real
         estate.

         RETIREE HEALTH CARE BENEFIT PLAN

         In accordance with the TI plan, employees of the Defense
         Business are currently eligible to receive, during retirement,
         specified company-paid medical benefits.  The plan is
         contributory and premiums are adjusted annually.  For employees
         retiring on or after January 5, 1993, TI has specified a
         maximum annual amount per retiree, based on years of service,
         that it will pay toward retiree medical premiums.  For
         employees who retired prior to that date, TI maintains a
         consistent level of cost sharing between the company and the
         retiree.  Funding of the plan obligation is determined at the
         discretion of management.  Plan assets consist primarily of
         common stock, U.S. government obligations, commercial paper,
         and obligations of U.S. states and municipalities.

         Retiree health care benefit amounts were determined using
         health care cost trend rates of 7.3% for 1997 decreasing to
         5.0% by 2000, and assumed discount rates of 7.25% for 1996 and
         7.0% for 1995.  Increasing the health care cost trend rates by
         1% would have increased the accumulated postretirement benefit
         obligation at December 31, 1996 by $7.9 million and 1996 plan
         expense by $.7 million.  A trust holding a portion of the plan
         assets is subject to federal income taxes at a 39.6% rate.  The
         assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets, after taxes,
         was 7.3%.

         11.  INCOME TAXES

         The operations of the Defense Business are included in the con-
         solidated income tax returns of TI.  Pursuant to the Agreement,
         TI will retain all income tax liabilities and rights to all tax
         refunds relating to operations prior to the closing date of the
         Acquisition.  Accordingly, the statements of assets to be ac-
         quired and liabilities to be assumed do not reflect current or
         prior period income tax receivables or payables.  The income
         tax provisions included in the statements of income have been
         determined as if the Defense Business were a separate taxpayer.

         12.  STOCK OPTIONS

         Employees of the Defense Business have stock options
         outstanding under the Texas Instruments 1996 Long-Term
         Incentive Plan, approved by TI stockholders on April 18, 1996.
         Options are also outstanding under the 1984 and 1988 Stock
         Option Plans and the Texas Instruments Long-Term Incentive
         Plan; however, no further options may be granted under these
         plans.  Under all these stockholder-approved plans, the
         exercise price per share may not be less than 100 percent of
         the fair market value on the date of the grant.  Substantially
         all of the options have a 10-year term and do not become
         exercisable until after eight years, although exercisability
         may be accelerated to the extent that earnings per share goals
         are achieved.  Under the terms of the Acquisition as they
         pertain to these plans, unvested options held by employees of
         the Defense Business will be canceled and replaced with
         Raytheon Company options.  At December 31, 1996, 279,363
         options held by employees of the Defense Business were
         unvested.

         Employees of the Defense Business also have stock options out-
         standing under an Employees Stock Option Purchase Plan approved
         by TI stockholders in 1988.  The plan provides for options to
         be offered to all eligible employees in amounts based on a
         percentage of the employee's prior year's compensation.
         Options granted become exercisable 14 months, and expire not
         more than 27 months, from the date of grant.  Under the terms
         of the Acquisition, options under this plan will not be
         converted to options of the Buyer.

         In accordance with the terms of APB No. 25, the Defense
         Business has recorded no compensation expense for TI stock
         option awards to employees of the Defense Business.  As
         required by SFAS No. 123, the following disclosures of
         hypothetical values for stock option awards are provided below.

         The weighted-average grant-date value of options granted during
         1996 was estimated to be $18.47 under the Long-Term Incentive
         Plans (Long-Term Plans) and $12.10 under the Employees Stock
         Option Purchase Plan (Employees Plan).  These values were esti-
         mated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the
         following weighted-average assumptions:  expected dividend
         yields of 1.48% (Long-Term Plans) and 1.21% (Employees Plan),
         expected volatility of 39%, risk-free interest rates of 5.42%
         (Long-Term Plans) and 6.15% (Employees Plan); and expected
         lives of 6 years (Long-Term Plans) and 1.5 years (Employees
         Plan).  Had compensation expense been recorded based on these
         hypothetical values, the Defense Business' 1996 net income
         would have been $105.6 million.  A similar computation for 1995
         would have resulted in net income of $90.1 million.  Because
         options vest over several years and additional option grants
         are expected, the effects of these hypothetical calculations
         are not likely to be representative of similar future
         calculations.

         13.  CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

         The Defense Business is subject to various lawsuits, claims and
         proceedings arising out of the normal conduct of business.  TI
         management believes the disposition of matters which are
         pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect on
         the financial statements of the Defense Business.

         The Defense Business is included among a number of U.S. defense
         contractors which are currently the subject of U.S. government
         investigations regarding alleged procurement irregularities.
         The Defense Business is unable to predict the outcome of the
         investigations at this time or to estimate the kinds or amounts
         of claims or other actions that could be instituted against the
         Defense Business.  Under present government procurement regula-
         tions, such investigations could lead to a government contrac-
         tor's being suspended or debarred from eligibility for awards
         of new government contracts.  In the current environment, even
         matters that seem limited to disputes about contract
         interpretation can result in criminal prosecution.  While
         criminal charges against contractors have resulted from such
         investigations, the Defense Business does not believe such
         charges would be appropriate in its case and has not, at any
         time, lost its eligibility to enter into government contracts
         or subcontracts under these regulations.

                                                                      21<PAGE>

         14.  JOINT VENTURE

         The Defense Business and Lockheed Martin Corporation ("LMC")
         have formed an unincorporated contractual joint venture ("Joint
         Venture") to act as the prime contractor for a contract with
         the US Army Missile Command to design and produce antitank
         weapon systems.  The Defense Business and LMC share profits and
         losses from the Joint Venture in approximate relationship to
         the work effort expended by each company.  The Defense Business
         recognized revenue and profit, respectively, from the Joint
         Venture of $71.6 million and $14.5 million in 1996, $30.4
         million and $5.3 million in 1995, and $12.4 million and $1.3
         million in 1994.  See also Note 2.

         15.  SPECIAL ACTIONS

         Income before provision for income taxes for 1996 includes the
         effect of a fourth quarter pretax charge of $32 million for
         voluntary and involuntary severance actions.  These actions
         were essentially completed by year-end 1996 and affected
         approximately 700 employees of the Defense Business.  The
         pretax charge included approximately $5.6 million associated
         with a curtailment and settlement for Defense Business
         employees under the pension and retiree healthcare benefit
         plans.  Accrued severance remaining at December 31, 1996 for
         these actions amounted to approximately $17.1 million.

                        FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED
                        DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994 AND
                        INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT<PAGE>






                         [DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP LETTERHEAD]





         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


         The Defense Business of Hughes Electronics Corporation:


         We have audited the Combined Balance Sheet of the Defense Business
         of Hughes Electronics Corporation and subsidiaries (the Defense
         Business) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related
         Combined Statement of Income and Parent Company's Net Investment
         and Combined Statement of Cash Flows for each of the three years
         in the period ended December 31, 1996.  These financial statements
         are the responsibility of the Defense Business' management.  Our
         responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
         statements based on our audits.


         We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
         auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
         perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
         financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
         includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
         amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
         also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
         significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
         the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
         audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


         In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all
         material respects, the financial position of the Defense Business
         at December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the results of its operations
         and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
         December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
         principles.


         As discussed in Note 2 to the combined financial statements,
         effective January 1, 1994 the Defense Business changed its method
         of accounting for postemployment benefits.

         THE DEFENSE BUSINESS OF
         HUGHES ELECTRONICS CORPORATION


         NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


         NOTE 1:  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


         On January 16, 1997, HE Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary
         of Hughes Electronics Corporation (Hughes), General Motors Corpo-
         ration (GM), the parent of Hughes, and Raytheon Company
         (Raytheon) entered into various agreements (such agreements are
         referred to herein as the Merger Agreements) pursuant to which
         the defense business of Hughes (the Defense Business) will be
         spun-off to holders of GM's common stocks, followed immediately
         by the tax-free merger of the Defense Business with Raytheon.
         This transaction is subject to, among other things, the approval
         of GM's $1-2/3 par value and Class H stockholders, the approval
         of Raytheon's stockholders and the receipt of various regulatory
         approvals.


         The Defense Business is not a legal entity.  The combined finan-
         cial statements present the financial position, results of opera-
         tions and cash flows of the Defense Business, which consists pri-
         marily of operations included in the Aerospace and Defense
         Systems segment of Hughes, certain other businesses identified in
         the Merger Agreements and certain Hughes Corporate assets,
         liabilities, income and expenses attributable to the Defense
         Business.  The combined financial statements do not include cer-
         tain other defense operations of Hughes which will not be merged
         with Raytheon, consisting principally of the defense business of
         Hughes currently reported in the Hughes Telecommunications and
         Space segment.  All transactions and balances between the enti-
         ties included in the combined financial statements have been
         eliminated.  All Defense Business amounts due from or payable to
         other Hughes businesses, excluding amounts included in loans pay-
         able to affiliate, have been reported in Parent Company's Net
         Investment.


         The combined financial statements include allocations of corpo-
         rate expenses from Hughes including research and development,
         general management, human resources, financial, legal, tax, qual-
         ity, communications, marketing, international, employee benefits
         and other miscellaneous services.  These costs and expenses have
         been charged to the Defense Business based either on usage or
         using allocation methodologies which comply with U.S. Government
         cost accounting standards, primarily based upon total revenues,
         certain tangible assets and payroll expenses.  Management
         believes the allocations were made on a reasonable basis; how-
         ever, they do not necessarily equal the costs that the Defense
         Business would have incurred on a stand-alone basis.  The finan-
         cial information included herein may not necessarily reflect the
         financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the
         Defense Business on a standalone basis in the future.


         The Defense Business participates in a centralized cash manage-
         ment system wherein cash receipts are transferred to and cash
         disbursements are funded by Hughes daily.  Accordingly, the Com-
         bined Balance Sheet includes only cash and cash equivalents held
         by the Defense Business, consisting principally of cash held by
         foreign operations.  Interest expense in the Combined Statement
         of Income and Parent Company's Net Investment includes interest
         expense associated with the debt included in the Combined Balance
         Sheet plus an allocated share of total HE Holdings, Inc. interest
         expense.


         The Defense Business operates in one segment:  the development,
         production and support of advanced electronics systems including
         missile, airborne radar and communications, information, training
         and simulation, command and control, torpedoes and sonar, elec-
         tro-optical, air traffic control, and guidance and control.

         NOTE 2:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


         USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with gener-
         ally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
         estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein.
         Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates,
         actual results reported in future periods may be based upon
         amounts which differ from those estimates.


         REVENUE RECOGNITION


         Sales under long-term contracts are recognized primarily using
         the percentage-of-completion (cost-to-cost) method of accounting.
         Under this method, sales are recorded equivalent to costs in-
         curred plus a portion of the profit expected to be realized,
         determined based on the ratio of costs incurred to estimated
         total costs at completion.  Sales under certain commercial long-
         term contracts and to outside customers not pursuant to long-term
         contracts generally are recognized as products are shipped or
         services are rendered.


         Profits expected to be realized on long-term contracts are based
         on estimates of total sales value and costs at completion.  These
         estimates are reviewed and revised periodically throughout the
         lives of the contracts, and adjustments to profits resulting from
         such revisions are recorded in the accounting period in which the
         revisions are made.  Estimated losses on contracts are recorded
         in the period in which they are identified.


         Certain contracts contain cost or performance incentives which
         provide for increases in profits for surpassing stated objectives
         and decreases in profits for failure to achieve such objectives.
         Amounts associated with incentives are included in estimates of
         total sales values when there is sufficient information to relate
         actual performance to the objectives.


         CASH FLOWS


         Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments purchased
         with original maturities of 90 days or less.


         Net cash provided by operating activities reflects cash payments
         for interest made by the Defense Business and by Hughes on behalf
         of the Defense Business of $92.3 million, $75.9 million and $64.9
         million in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Cash payments for
         income taxes made by Hughes on behalf of the Defense Business
         amounted to $226.6 million, $299.0 million and $209.1 million in
         1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.


                                         5<PAGE>





         ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND CONTRACTS IN PROCESS


         Accounts receivable principally are related to long-term con-
         tracts and programs.  Amounts billed under retainage provisions
         of contracts are not significant, and substantially all amounts
         are collectible within one year.


         Contracts in process are stated at costs incurred plus estimated
         profit, less amounts billed to customers and advances and prog-
         ress payments applied.  Engineering, tooling, manufacturing, and
         applicable overhead costs, including administrative, research and
         development, and selling expenses, are charged to costs and ex-
         penses when incurred.  Contracts in process include amounts
         relating to contracts with long production cycles, and $87.3 mil-
         lion of the 1996 amount is expected to be billed after one year.
         Contracts in process in 1996 also includes approximately $43.8
         million relating to claims and requests for equitable adjust-
         ments.  Under certain contracts with the U.S. Government, prog-
         ress payments are received based on costs incurred on the respec-
         tive contracts.  Title to the inventories related to such
         contracts (included in contracts in process) vests with the U.S.
         Government.


         INVENTORIES


         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, princi-
         pally using the average cost method.

         PROPERTY AND DEPRECIATION


         Property is carried at cost.  Depreciation of property is provided
         for based on estimated useful lives generally using accelerated
         methods.  Recoverability of property is periodically evaluated by
         assessing whether the net book value can be recovered over its
         remaining life through undiscounted cash flows generated by the
         asset.


         INTANGIBLE ASSETS


         Effective December 31, 1985, GM acquired Hughes Aircraft Company
         (HAC), now a wholly owned subsidiary of Hughes.  The acquisition
         of HAC was accounted for as a purchase.  The excess of the pur-
         chase price over the net tangible assets acquired, $4,244.7 mil-
         lion, was assigned to intangible assets, primarily goodwill.  The
         portion of such intangible assets and related amortization at-
         tributable to the Defense Business has been reflected in the
         accompanying combined financial statements.


         Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method
         over periods not exceeding 40 years.  Recoverability is periodi-
         cally evaluated by assessing whether the unamortized carrying
         amount can be recovered over its remaining life through undis-
         counted cash flows generated by underlying tangible assets.


                                          6<PAGE>





         INCOME TAXES


         The Defense Business, along with other Hughes businesses and sub-
         sidiaries, joins with GM in filing a consolidated U.S. federal
         income tax return.  Current and deferred income taxes are
         computed by Hughes and allocated to the Defense Business
         according to principles established by Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
         Deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of
         temporary differences between the amounts of assets and
         liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes and such
         amounts recognized for tax purposes, as measured by applying
         currently enacted tax laws.  Hughes has paid the Defense
         Business' share of the consolidated income tax liability.  The
         income taxes that would have been paid by the Defense Business if
         it were a separate taxpayer but were not paid under Hughes'
         policy results in an increase in the Parent Company's Net
         Investment.


         RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT


         Expenditures for research and development are charged to costs
         and expenses as incurred and amounted to $84.2 million in 1996,
         $100.0 million in 1995 and $103.6 million in 1994.


         FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


         Hughes enters into foreign exchange-forward contracts on behalf
         of the Defense Business to reduce the Defense Business' exposure
         to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.  Such foreign ex-
         change-forward contracts are accounted for in the accompanying
         combined financial statements as hedges to the extent they are
         designated as, and are effective as, hedges of firm foreign cur-
         rency commitments.


         FOREIGN CURRENCY


         Substantially all of the Defense Business' foreign operations
         have determined the local currency to be their functional cur-
         rency.  Accordingly, most foreign entities translate assets and
         liabilities from their local currencies to U.S. dollars using
         year-end exchange rates.  Income and expense accounts are trans-
         lated at the average rates in effect during the year.  The re-
         lated translation adjustments are included in the foreign cur-
         rency translation adjustment in the Combined Statement of Income
         and Parent Company's Net Investment.  Foreign currency transac-
         tion net gains and losses included in the combined operating
         results were not material in all years presented.


         MARKET CONCENTRATIONS


         Sales under United States Government contracts were approximately
         70%, 71% and 74% of net sales in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respec-
         tively.  No single United States Government program accounted for
         more than 10% of revenues.


                                         7<PAGE>





         NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS


         Effective January 1, 1996, Hughes adopted SFAS No. 121, Account-
         ing for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
         Assets to Be Disposed Of.  This Statement establishes accounting
         standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain iden-
         tifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be
         held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable
         intangibles to be disposed of.  The adoption of this new account-
         ing standard did not have a material effect on the Defense Busi-
         ness' combined operating results or financial position.


         Effective January 1, 1994, Hughes adopted SFAS No. 112, Employ-
         ers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits.  The Statement
         requires accrual of the costs of benefits provided to former or
         inactive employees after employment, but before retirement.  The
         unfavorable cumulative effect on the Defense Business of adopting
         this Standard was $7.1 million, net of income taxes of $4.4 mil-
         lion.  The charge primarily related to extended disability bene-
         fits which are accrued on a service-driven basis.

         15, 1997, of which $34.9 million bears interest at a rate which
         approximates the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus
         0.10% and the remaining $48.0 million bears interest at a rate
         which approximates LIBOR plus 0.625%.  At December 31, 1996, all
         foreign bank debt was denominated in British pounds sterling,
         bearing interest at rates ranging from 5.9% to 7.1%, with
         maturity dates from 1997 to 2003.

         No provision has been made for U.S. Federal income taxes to be
         paid on the portion of the undistributed earnings of foreign sub-
         sidiaries deemed permanently reinvested.  At December 31, 1996 and
         1995, undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries amounted to
         approximately $49.8 million and $46.0 million, respectively.
         Repatriation of all accumulated foreign earnings would have
         resulted in tax liabilities of $13.8 million and $12.6 million,
         respectively.


                                         10<PAGE>





         At December 31, 1996, the Defense Business had $61.0 million of
         foreign operating loss carryforwards which expire in varying
         amounts between 1997 and 2001.  The valuation allowance consists
         of a provision for all of the foreign operating loss carryfor-
         wards.


         NOTE 8:  RETIREMENT AND INCENTIVE PLANS


         Certain employees of the Defense Business and other Hughes busi-
         nesses participate in bargaining and non-bargaining defined bene-
         fit retirement plans (the Plans) maintained by Hughes.  These
         Plans are available to substantially all full-time employees of
         the Defense Business.  Benefits are based on years of service and
         compensation earned during a specified period of time before
         retirement.  The accumulated plan benefit obligations and plan net
         assets for the employees of the Defense Business have not been
         separately determined and are not included in the Combined Balance
         Sheet.  However, the fair value of plan assets exceeds the
         accumulated plan benefit obligations related to these Plans.  In
         addition, employees of the Defense Business and other Hughes
         businesses participate in certain other postretirement and
         postemployment benefit plans, principally health and life insur-
         ance plans, which are unfunded.  The accumulated postretirement
         and postemployment benefit obligations related to employees of the
         Defense Business have not been separately determined and are not
         included in the Combined Balance Sheet.  The Defense Business
         recorded expenses related to the pension, postretirement and
         postemployment benefits plans of approximately $60.7 million,
         $31.9 million and $21.4 million in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respec-
         tively.


         Certain other Defense Business employees (principally foreign
         employees and those employed by the businesses acquired in the
         CAE-Link and Magnavox Electronic Systems Company acquisitions -
         see Note 10) are covered by contributory and non-contributory
         defined benefit retirement plans, where benefits are based on
         years of service and compensation earned during a specified period
         of time before retirement.  The net pension cost, assets and
         liabilities related to these plans are not significant.


         Certain eligible employees of the Defense Business participate in
         the Hughes Electronics Corporation Incentive Plan pursuant to
         which shares, rights, or options to acquire GM Class H common
         stock may be granted through May 31, 1997.  The option price is
         equal to 100% of the fair market value of GM Class H common stock
         on the date the options are granted.  These nonqualified options
         generally expire 10 years from the dates of grant and are subject
         to earlier termination under certain conditions.


         Employees of the Defense Business also participate in other Hughes
         health and welfare plans.  Charges related to these plans were
         $132.6 million, $147.0 million and $195.6 million in 1996, 1995
         and 1994, respectively.


         NOTE 9:  SPECIAL PROVISION FOR RESTRUCTURING


         In 1992, Hughes recorded a special restructuring charge of
         $1,237.0 million primarily attributable to redundant facilities
         and related employment costs.  Approximately $833.1 million was
         attributable to the Defense Business and comprehended a reduction
         of the Defense Business worldwide employment, a major facilities
         consolidation, and a reevaluation of certain business lines that
         no longer met the Defense Business' strategic objectives.
         Restructuring costs of $75.4 million, $140.8 million, and $184.4
         million attributable to the Defense Business were charged against
         the reserve during 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.  The
         remaining liability attributable to the Defense Business of $16.1
         million relates primarily to reserves for excess facilities and
         other site consolidation costs.  It is expected that these costs
         will be expended predominantly during the next year.


                                         11<PAGE>








         NOTE 10:  ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES


         In December 1996, the Defense Business announced that it had
         reached an agreement to acquire the Marine Systems Division of
         Alliant Techsystems, Inc. for $141.0 million.  The Marine Systems
         Division is a leader in lightweight torpedo manufacturing and the
         design and manufacturing of underwater surveillance, sonar, and
         mine warfare systems.  The acquisition was completed in the first
         quarter of 1997.  Also in 1996, the Defense Business acquired an
         enterprise with operations that complement existing technological
         capabilities for $28.7 million.


         In February 1995, the Defense Business acquired substantially all
         of the assets of CAE-Link Corporation for $176.0 million.  CAE-
         Link is an established supplier of simulation, training, and
         technical services, primarily to the U.S. military and NASA.  In
         December 1995, the Defense Business acquired all of the stock of
         Magnavox Electronic Systems Company (Magnavox) for $382.4 million.
         Magnavox is a leading supplier of military tactical commu-
         nications, electronic warfare, and command and control systems.


         All acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of
         accounting.  The operating results of the entities acquired were
         combined with those of the Defense Business from their respective
         acquisition dates.  These acquisitions did not have a material
         impact on the operating results of the Defense Business.  The
         purchase price of each acquisition was allocated to the net assets
         acquired, including intangible assets, based upon their estimated
         fair values at the dates of acquisition.


         During 1995, Hughes divested several non-strategic enterprises
         generating aggregate proceeds of approximately $23.6 million with
         no significant net income impact.


         NOTE 11:  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT


         In the normal course of business, Hughes enters into transactions
         utilizing financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk on
         behalf of the Defense Business to reduce the Defense Business'
         exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.  The primary
         class of derivatives used is foreign exchange-forward contracts.
         These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit
         risk in the event a counterparty should default and market risk as
         the instruments are subject to rate and price fluctuations.
         Credit risk is managed through the periodic monitoring and
         approval of financially sound counterparties.  Market risk is
         mitigated because the derivatives are used to hedge underlying
         transactions.  Cash receipts or payments on these contracts nor-
         mally occur at maturity.  Hughes holds derivatives on behalf of
         the Defense Business only for purposes other than trading.


         Foreign exchange-forward contracts are legal agreements between
         two parties to purchase and sell a foreign currency, for a price
         specified at the contract date, with delivery and settlement in
         the future.  Hughes uses these agreements on behalf of the Defense
         Business to hedge risk of changes in foreign currency exchange
         rates associated with certain firm commitments denominated in
         foreign currency.


         The total notional amount of foreign exchange-forward contracts
         entered into by Hughes on behalf of the Defense Business at
         December 31, 1996 and 1995, was approximately $23.1 million and
         $31.0 million, respectively.  Such open contracts extend for
         periods averaging six months.


                                         12<PAGE>






         NOTE 12:  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


         For notes and loans payable and long-term debt, the estimated fair
         value was $120.2 million and $134.2 million at December 31, 1996
         and 1995, respectively.  Such fair value is based on quoted market
         prices for similar issues or on current rates offered to the
         Defense Business for debt of similar remaining maturities.  The
         carrying value of debt with an original term of less than 90 days
         is assumed to approximate fair value.


         The fair values of derivative financial instruments reflect the
         estimated amounts the Defense Business would receive or pay to
         terminate the contracts at the reporting date, which takes into
         account the current unrealized gains or losses on open contracts
         that are deferred and recognized when the offsetting gains and
         losses are recognized on the related hedged items.  The fair value
         of foreign exchange-forward contracts is estimated based on
         foreign exchange rate quotes at the reporting date.  At December
         31, 1996 and 1995, the estimated fair value of open contracts held
         by Hughes on behalf of the Defense Business which were in a net
         gain position, was $1.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
         No amounts were recorded on the Combined Balance Sheet for these
         contracts in 1996 and 1995.  For all financial instruments not
         described above, fair value approximates book value.


         NOTE 13:  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES


         In December 1994, Hughes entered into an agreement with Computer
         Sciences Corporation (CSC) whereby CSC provides a significant
         amount of data processing services required by the non-automotive
         businesses of Hughes.  Baseline service payments to CSC are
         expected to aggregate approximately $1.5 billion over the term of
         the eight-year agreement.  Based on historical usage, approxi-
         mately 85% of the costs incurred under the agreement are attri-
         butable to the Defense Business.  The contract is cancelable by
         Hughes with substantial early termination penalties.


         Minimum future commitments under operating leases having noncan-
         celable lease terms in excess of one year, primarily for real
         property, aggregating $1,048.6 million, are payable as follows:
         $98.6 million in 1997, $86.0 million in 1998, $88.8 million in
         1999, $84.2 million in 2000, $74.4 million in 2001, and $616.6
         million thereafter.  Certain of these leases contain escalation
         clauses and renewal or purchase options.  Rental expenses under
         operating leases were $96.2 million in 1996, $114.1 million in
         1995, and $133.7 million in 1994.


         In conjunction with its performance on long-term contracts, the
         Defense Business is contingently liable under standby letters of
         credit and bonds in the amount of $211.8 million and $242.6 mil-
         lion at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  In the Defense
         Business' past experience, no material claims have been made
         against these financial instruments.


         The Defense Business is subject to potential liability under gov-
         ernment regulations and various claims and legal actions which are
         pending or may be asserted against it.  The aggregate ultimate
         liability of the Defense Business under these government regula-
         tions, and under these claims and actions, was not determinable at
         December 31, 1996.  In the opinion of Hughes and Defense Business
         management, such liability is not expected to have a material
         adverse effect on the Defense Business' combined operations or
         financial position.

                                   PRO FORMA
                      COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


         The following pro forma combined condensed financial
    statements have been prepared by the Corporation's management from its
    historical consolidated financial statements and from the historical
    financial statements of Texas Instruments defense operations (TI Defense)
    and Hughes Electronics defense operations (Hughes Defense).  The 
    pro forma combined condensed statements of earnings reflect adjustments as
    if the transactions had occurred on January 1, 1996.  The pro forma 
    combined condensed balance sheet reflects adjustments as if the
    transactions had occurred on March 30, 1997.  See "Note 1 -- Basis of
    Presentation."  The pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying
    notes are based upon preliminary estimates and certain assumptions that
    management of the Corporation believes are reasonable in such
    circumstances.

         The pro forma combined condensed financial statements should be read 
    in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of 
    the Corporation (Raytheon Financial Statements) and the related notes 
    thereto and with the historical financial statements of TI Defense and 
    Hughes Defense and the related notes thereto.

         The pro forma combined condensed financial statements are
    not necessarily indicative of what the financial position or results of
    operations actually would have been if the transactions had occurred on
    the applicable date indicated.  Moreover, they are not intended to be
    indicative of future results of operations or financial position.  The
    pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not reflect
    the cost and revenue synergies associated with the transactions, which the
    company expects to realize commencing in the first year of operation.

         In January 1997, Raytheon entered into definitive agreements to
    purchase the assets of Texas Instruments' (TI) defense operations for
    $2.95 billion in cash and to merge with Hughes Electronics' defense
    operations, with the combined company to be called Raytheon.  The Hughes
    transaction is valued at $9.5 billion, comprised of approximately $5.1
    billion in common stock and $4.4 billion in debt to be assumed by the
    merged company.  (Refer to Note R of the Raytheon Financial Statements 
    for a full description of the Hughes transaction).

    The two transactions are subject to regulatory approvals, including Hart-
    Scott-Rodino antitrust review, with the Hughes transaction also subject to a
    favorable ruling by the Internal Revenue Service and approval by Raytheon,
    General Motors $1 2/3 par value and Class H stockholders.<PAGE>

    1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying pro forma combined condensed statements of
    earnings present the historical results of operations of the Corporation,
    TI Defense and Hughes Defense for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
    for the three months ended March 30, 1997, with pro forma adjustments as

    forma combined condensed balance sheet presents the historical balance
    sheets of the Corporation, TI Defense and Hughes Defense as of March 30,
    1997, with pro forma adjustments as if the transactions had been
    consummated as of March 30, 1997, in transactions accounted for as
    purchases in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

         Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial
    statements of the Corporation, TI Defense and Hughes Defense to conform to 
    the pro forma combined condensed financial statement presentation on a 
    consistent basis.

    2.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS - TI DEFENSE

         (a)  To record the Exchange Consideration at Closing:

              (Assumed financing of $740 variable rate
              short-term and $2,250 fixed rate medium- and
              long-term at an aggregate interest rate 
              of 6.31% including acquisition costs of $40)

         (b)  To adjust the assets and liabilities to their
              estimated fair values:
              Net assets of TI Defense at March 30, 1997                $  403

              Deferred tax benefits                                         66

                                                                        ======
                                                                        $2,950
                                                                        

         (c)  Adjustment to eliminate the amortization of 
              intangible assets of TI Defense which would not 
              have been incurred if the transaction had occurred 
              on January 1, 1996.

         (d)  Adjustment to reflect the effect on 1996 and 1997 
              results relating to a net reduction of accumulated 
              contract costs as an allowance for the Corporation's 
              normal profit on its efforts to complete such contracts, and
              other contract valuation adjustments.<PAGE>

                                    -2-
         
         
         (e)  Elimination of $32 million of non-recurring employee related
              costs and $20 million of non-recurring corporate
              allocations from the parent of TI Defense as a result of 
              the transaction for the year ended December 31, 1996 and 
              $5 million of non-recurring corporation allocations for 
              the three months ending March 30, 1997.

         (f)  Adjustments which represent additional estimated 
              interest expense resulting from the use of borrowings 
              to finance the transaction and incremental interest on
              Raytheon's pre-transaction variable rate borrowings to 
              reflect the change in credit rating as a result of the 
              transaction.

         (g)  The amortization of excess of costs over acquired 
              net assets over an estimated life of 40 years.  
              Such amortization expense is subject to possible 
              adjustment resulting from the completion of the 
              valuation analyses.  The Corporation expects that 
              any subsequent adjustment would not materially 
              effect the combined pro forma results.

         (h)  The estimated tax effect on the applicable pro forma
              adjustments.

         (i)  Certain reclassifications have been made to conform 
              the TI Defense historical financial statements to 
              the pro forma combined condensed financial statement 
              presentation.

              Purchase Price ($9,500 less acquired debt of $120)        $9,380

              of the Corporation's stock at the announcement date of 
              the merger:
              Equity -  103 million shares at assumed market
                        value of $49.17 totals $5,065
              Debt   -  $4,435 less $120 of debt assumed plus
                        acquisition costs of $125 totals $4,440
                        to be financed with a combination of
                        variable rate short-term borrowing of
                        $2,310 and fixed rate medium- and long-
                        term of $2,130 at an aggregate
                        interest rate of 6.37%<PAGE>
                                
                                -3-

         (b)  To adjust the assets and liabilities to their

                market value                                             (254)
              Provision for the estimated exit costs

                value less the projected benefit obligation                882
              To include the liability for post-retirement

                                                                        $9,380
                                                                        

         (c)  Adjustment to eliminate the amortization of intangible 
              assets of Hughes Defense which would not have been 
              incurred if the transaction had occurred on January 
              1, 1996.

         (d)  Adjustment to reflect the effect on 1996 and 1997 
              results relating to a net reduction of accumulated 
              contract costs as an allowance for the Corporation's 
              normal profit on its efforts to complete such 
              contracts.

         (e)  Elimination of $29 million of non-recurring corporate
              allocations from the parent of Hughes Defense as a

              31, 1996 and $7 million for the three months ended 
              March 30, 1997.

         (f)  Adjustments which represent additional estimated 
              interest expense resulting from the use of borrowings

              to reflect the change in credit rating as a result of the 
              transaction.

         (g)  The amortization of excess of costs over acquired net
              assets over an estimated life of 40 years.  Such amortization
              expense is subject to possible adjustment resulting from the
              completion of the valuation analyses.  The Corporation expects
              that any subsequent adjustment would not materially effect the
              combined pro forma results.

         (h)  The estimated tax effect on the applicable pro forma
              adjustments.

              the actual net assets at the time of the closing and the amount
              of debt and equity to be paid is subject to adjustment based on
              the price of the Corporation's stock at the closing.<PAGE>

             THE DEFENSE BUSINESS OF HUGHES ELECTRONICS CORPORATION

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

         NOTE 1:  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

         The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements have
         been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles for interim financial information.  In
         the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
         only normal recurring items) which are necessary for a fair
         presentation have been included.  The results for interim
         periods are not necessarily indicative of results which may
         be expected for any other interim period or for the full
         year.

         On January 16, 1997, HE Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned
         subsidiary of Hughes Electronics Corporation (Hughes),
         General Motors Corporation (GM), the parent of Hughes, and
         Raytheon Company (Raytheon) entered into various agreements
         (such agreements are referred to herein as the Merger
         Agreements) pursuant to which the defense business of Hughes
         (the Defense Business) will be spun-off to holders of GM's
         common stocks, followed immediately by the tax-free merger of
         the Defense Business with Raytheon.  This transaction is
         subject to, among other things, the approval of GM's $1 2/3
         par value and Class H stockholders, the approval of
         Raytheon's stockholders and the receipt of various regulatory
         approvals.

         The Defense Business is not a legal entity.  The combined
         financial statements present the financial position, results
         of operations and cash flows of the Defense Business, which
         consists primarily  of operations included in the Aerospace
         and Defense Systems segment of Hughes, certain other
         businesses identified in the Merger Agreements and certain
         Hughes Corporate assets, liabilities, income and expenses
         attributable to the Defense Business.  The combined financial
         statements do not include certain other defense operations of
         Hughes which will not be merged with Raytheon, consisting
         principally of the defense business of Hughes currently
         reported in the Hughes Telecommunications and Space segment.
         All transactions and balances between the entities included
         in the combined financial statements have been eliminated.
         All Defense Business amounts due from or payable to other
         Hughes businesses, except for certain loans payable to
         affiliates which are included in notes and loans payable,
         have been reported in Parent Company's Net Investment.

         The combined financial statements include allocations of
         corporate expenses from Hughes including research and
         development, general management, human resources, financial,
         legal, tax, quality, communications, marketing,
         international, employee benefits and other miscellaneous
         services.  These costs and expenses have been charged to the
         Defense Business based either on usage or using allocation
         methodologies which comply with U.S. Government cost
         accounting standards, primarily based upon total revenues,
         certain tangible assets and payroll expenses.  Management
         believes the allocations were made on a reasonable basis;
         however, they do not necessarily equal the costs that the
         Defense Business would have incurred on a stand-alone basis.
         The financial information included herein may not necessarily
         reflect the financial position, results of operations and
         cash flows of the Defense Business on a standalone basis in
         the future.<PAGE>
