ITEM 1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW

LOGO

We provide the industry’s broadest portfolio of document technology, services and software; and the most diverse array of business process and IT outsourcing support. Our document technology offerings serve businesses of all sizes and across industries to deliver solutions for both the workplace and production print environments. We leverage our technology and the document expertise of our employees to deliver further value for our customers through our document outsourcing solutions, which help customers improve their productivity and reduce costs. We have transformed our business with the acquisition of Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (“ACS”) in February 2010, which allows Xerox to capitalize on the rapidly growing services market. Through our business process and IT outsourcing we offer global services from claims reimbursement and electronic toll transactions to the management of HR benefits and customer care centers to the operation of a company’s technology infrastructure.

Our Strategy

We are well-positioned to lead in the markets in which we participate. Our strategy leverages our core strengths to drive growth within our segments and lines of businesses.

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  2


Table of Contents

LOGO

Our core strengths include:

 

Our Brand – We have a strong and well-recognized brand that is known by businesses worldwide for delivering industry-leading document technology, services and solutions.

 

Global Presence – Our geographic footprint spans 160 countries and allows us to serve customers of all sizes to deliver superior technology and services regardless of complexity or number of customer locations.

 

Renowned Innovation – We have a history of innovation and, with more than 10,200 active U.S. patents and five global research centers, we are committed to continuing to lead in the document technology industry and to leverage our technology into new service areas.

 

Services Operational Excellence – We have an operational excellence model that leverages our global delivery capabilities, production model, incentive-based compensation process, proprietary systems and financial discipline to deliver productivity and lower costs for our customers.

We organize our business around two segments: Technology and Services.

 

Our Technology segment comprises our business of providing customers with document technology and related supplies, technical service and equipment financing. Our product categories within this segment include Entry, Mid-range and High-end products.

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  3


Table of Contents
Our Services segment is comprised of business process outsourcing, information technology outsourcing and document outsourcing services. Because we provide all three of these business services, we are uniquely positioned in the industry, and we believe this allows us to provide a differentiated solution and deliver greater value to our customers.

LOGO

We will leverage our core strengths and market opportunities to grow our businesses by executing on the following growth initiatives:

 

Accelerating the Transition to Color – We have the broadest color portfolio in the industry and leading technologies to help customers realize the communication benefits of printing in color. Cost and quality improvements are driving the transition from black-and-white to color. With only 23% of Xerox pages printed on color devices, we believe there remains tremendous opportunity to grow color pages and revenues.

 

Advancing Customized Digital Printing – We are the leader in digital production printing, and we continue to create new market opportunities for digital printing through technology that enables personalized promotional and transactional documents, short-run book publishing, cross-media customized campaigns and more. Color digital production pages are estimated to grow over 20% CAGR from 2009 to 2014, according to internal market estimates.

 

Expand Distribution – We strive to ensure Xerox is considered by every customer and potential customer. We will continue to broaden our distribution capacity through acquisitions and channel partnerships targeted at expanding our presence in the small and mid-size business (“SMB”) market and we will capitalize on our coverage investments and partnerships to drive growth in digital production printing.

 

Extending Lead in Document Outsourcing – We lead the industry with end-to-end Document Management Services. Through offerings such as managed print services, we can help our customers save up to 30% on printing costs by optimizing their use of document systems across an entire enterprise. We will seek to grow our document outsourcing revenue by expanding our print services offerings to smaller companies, delivering solutions in new service categories such as multi-channel marketing communications, and leveraging our BPO and ITO presence to deliver even greater value to our customers.

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  4


Table of Contents
Expand BPO and ITO Globally – In 2010, approximately 90% of our BPO and ITO revenues were from services provided to customers in the United States. We believe there is tremendous opportunity to leverage Xerox’s global presence and customer relationships to expand our BPO and ITO services internationally.

 

Leverage Innovation – We have a strong heritage in innovation and we continue to invest heavily in research and development. In 2010, together with Fuji Xerox, our research and development spending was $1,602 million. We see great opportunity in applying our document management technology to deliver industry-leading document solutions to the market, to increase ACS’s existing BPO capabilities, and to deliver new services to help customers better manage their document-intensive business processes.

Acquisitions

In February 2010, we acquired Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. ACS is a premier provider of diversified business process outsourcing and information technology services and solutions to commercial and government clients worldwide.

Subsequent to the acquisition of ACS, we acquired three additional service companies, further expanding our BPO capabilities:

 

In July 2010, we acquired ExcellerateHRO, LLP (“EHRO”), a global benefits administration and relocation services provider. This acquisition establishes ACS as one of the world’s largest pension plan administrators and a leading provider of outsourced health, welfare and relocation services.

 

In October 2010, we acquired TMS Health, LLC (“TMS”), a U.S.-based teleservices company that provides customer care services to the pharmaceutical, biotech and healthcare industries. Through TMS, we will improve communication between pharmaceutical companies, physicians, consumers and pharmacists. By providing customer education, product sales and marketing, and clinical trial solutions, we build on our ITO and BPO services we are already delivering to the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries.

 

In November 2010, we acquired Spur Information Solutions, Limited (“Spur”), one of the United Kingdom’s leading providers of parking enforcement computer software used. Spur’s core software helps governments implement and enforce local parking codes across municipalities. The acquisition strengthens our broad portfolio of services that support the transportation industry.

Additionally in 2010, we acquired two companies to further expand our distribution capacity:

 

In January 2010, we acquired Irish Business Systems Limited (“IBS”) to expand our reach into the small and mid-size business market in Ireland. IBS, a managed print services provider, has eight offices located throughout Ireland and is the largest independent supplier of digital imaging and printing solutions in Ireland.

 

In September 2010, we acquired Georgia Duplicating Products, Inc., an office equipment supplier. This acquisition furthers our strategy of supporting business customers across the U.S. with an expanding network of office technology providers.

Business Model Fundamentals

LOGO

Through our annuity-based business model, we deliver significant cash generation and have a strong foundation upon which we can expand earnings.

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  5


Table of Contents

Annuity Model

The fundamentals of our business rest upon an annuity model that drives significant recurring revenue and cash generation. Over 80% of our 2010 total revenue was annuity based revenue that includes contracted services, equipment maintenance and consumable supplies, among other elements. Some of the key indicators of annuity revenue growth include:

 

The number of page-producing machines in the field (“MIF”) which is impacted by the number of equipment installations
Page volume and the mix of color pages, as color pages generate more revenue per page than black-and-white
Services signings growth, which reflects the year-over-year increase in estimated future revenues from contracts signed during the period as measured on a trailing 12 month basis
Services pipeline growth, which measures the year-over-year increase in new business opportunities
Expanding the digital production printing market, as this is key to increasing pages.

LOGO

Cash Generation

The combination of consistent strong cash flow from operations and modest capital investments enabled us in 2010 to pay down a significant amount of the debt associated with the ACS acquisition. Cash generation in the future will continue to provide a return to shareholders through:

 

Buying back shares under our share repurchase program once debt leverage targets are met
Expanding our distribution and business process outsourcing capabilities through acquisitions
Maintaining and, over time, increasing our quarterly dividend.

Expanded Earnings

We will expand our operating margin and future earnings through:

 

Modest revenue growth
Driving cost efficiencies to balance gross profit and expense
Repurchasing shares
Making accretive acquisitions.

Segment Information

Our reportable segments are Technology, Services and Other. We present operating segment financial information in Note 2 – Segment Reporting in the Consolidated Financial Statements, which we incorporate by reference here. We have a very broad and diverse base of customers by both geography and industry, ranging from SMB to graphic communications companies, governmental entities, educational institutions and Fortune 1000 corporate accounts. None of our business segments depends upon a single customer, or a few customers, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

Technology

Technology includes the sale of products and supplies, as well as the associated technical service and financing of those products. The Technology segment is centered around strategic product groups that share common technology, manufacturing and product platforms.

LOGO

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  8


Table of Contents

Our strategic product groups are as follows:

Entry

Entry comprises products sold principally to small and mid-size businesses through a worldwide network of independent resellers, and includes desktop monochrome and color printers and multifunction printers (MFPs) ranging from small personal devices to larger workgroup printers designed to serve the needs of demanding office users. In 2010, we continued to build on our position in the market by:

 

Leveraging the market transition from larger centralized devices to more-affordable desktop-centric devices with a full portfolio of products
Making high-quality desktop color more affordable and easier to use for small businesses and large enterprises alike
Expanding our channel reach, partner programs and capacity to support the needs of the SMB market

Our Entry business products include:

 

ColorQube 8570/8870: Featuring advanced cartridge-free solid ink, the ColorQube 8570 and ColorQube 8870 color printers are powerful, no-fuss and waste-conscious printing solutions that are simple, highly productive and affordable, with the advantage of superior color output. At 40 pages-per-minute (“ppm”), these products are perfect for small to mid-size workgroups.
Phaser 7500: This 35 ppm color laser printer allows small and mid-size workgroups to attain professional-quality results. Key features include improved print quality as a function of 1200 dpi, new “Color by Words” Xerox technology, a natural language technology enabling easy and intuitive color adjustments, enhanced media handling capabilities and longer lives on customer replaceable parts.
WorkCentre 6400: The WC6400 is Xerox’s first desktop multifunction printer that utilizes Xerox’s Smart Controller platform and supports EIP, Xerox’s open platform allowing customization of applications on the MFP. The WorkCentre 6400 is also able to handle busy volumes with print speeds up to 32 ppm color/37 ppm mono and offers basic finishing, Print Around and ID Card Copy.

Mid-range

Mid-range comprises products sold to enterprises of all sizes, principally through dedicated Xerox-branded partners and our direct sales force. We offer a wide range of multifunction printers, copiers, digital printing presses and light production devices that deliver flexibility and advanced features.

In 2010, our Mid-range business continued to build on our position in the market by:

 

Enhancing our already strong product portfolio, making color more affordable, easier to use, faster and more reliable while maintaining our leadership position in black-and-white
Driving to a leadership position in the combined color page printer and color MFP market segments
Offering a complete range of services and solutions in partnership with independent software partners that allow our customers to analyze, streamline, automate, secure and track their document workflows.

The breadth of our Mid-range product portfolio is unmatched. We continued to build on this portfolio in 2010 with the launches of:

 

Xerox WorkCentre 7120: Xerox’s new multifunction printer combines affordable color with high-productivity workflow tools. Today’s MFPs do far more than copy and print – they improve the way work gets done; the WorkCentre 7120 helps SMBs maximize office productivity and produce affordable, impactful color documents.
WorkCentre 7545 and 7556: These new multifunction printers are equipped with features to help mid-size businesses and large workgroups boost productivity and meet their sustainability goals. They offer speeds up to 45 and 50 ppm color and 45 and 55 ppm black-and-white, respectively. The MFPs, which can copy, scan, fax and email, include advanced document management and workflow tools to make office work easier.

Xerox Color 550/560 Digital Color Printer: The new Xerox Color 550/560 printer, with an easy-to-use color touch-screen, benchmark image quality and flexible finishing options, is an efficient choice for quick-print shops, small commercial printers, in-plant operations, advertising agencies, creative shops and office settings. It is the perfect fit in any print setting for applications ranging from marketing pieces to office documents.

High-end

We provide High-end digital monochrome and color systems designed for customers in the graphic communications industry and for large enterprises. These High-end devices enable digital on-demand printing, digital full-color printing and enterprise printing. We are the leading provider in the market offering a complete family of monochrome and color production systems, business development tools and workflow solutions. We are creating new market opportunities in targeted application areas with digital printing as a complement to traditional offset printing.

For more than two decades, we have delivered innovative technologies that have revolutionized the production printing industry. We are the industry leader in the number of pages produced on digital production color presses. We continued to build on our award-winning lineup in 2010 with the launches of:

 

Xerox Color Press 800 and 1000: These new products are additions to the portfolio and are positioned below iGen4, and above the DocuColor 8002. They offer customers a set of new innovative features. The optional fifth housing for clear dry ink allows users to create new applications and/or add value to existing work. The clear dry ink allows for images and text to be highlighted for visual impact, or digital watermarks applied for artistic effect. Flexible finishing options include high-capacity stackers, booklet makers and a tape bind option exclusive to Xerox

 

Xerox iGen4 EXP: We added more capabilities to the flagship of the production color portfolio, iGen4. The industry’s most reliable and productive press added a number of new options that expand the reach of iGen, enabling new applications that were previously done only on offset presses. The expanded sheet size of 26”, or 660mm, allows print providers to produce full-size trifold brochures and more multi-up images such as postcards and business cards per page. A new touchless workflow allows for jobs to be completed without manual intervention or setup, saving time, reducing errors and producing more-sellable prints. Integrating with the Adobe PDF print engine drives quick and reliable printing of native Adobe PDF files.

Patents, Trademarks and Licenses

Xerox and its subsidiaries were awarded 1,031 U.S. utility patents in 2010. On that basis, we would have ranked 20th on the list of companies that were awarded the most U.S. patents during the year. Including our research partner Fuji Xerox, we were awarded over 1,600 U.S. utility patents in 2010. Our patent portfolio evolves as new patents are awarded to us and as older patents expire. As of December 31, 2010, we held almost 10,200 design and utility U.S. patents. These patents expire at various dates up to 20 years or more from their original filing dates. While we believe that our portfolio of patents and applications has value, in general no single patent is essential to our business or any individual segment. In addition, any of our proprietary rights could be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or may not provide significant competitive advantages.

In the U.S., we are party to numerous patent-licensing agreements and, in a majority of them we license or assign our patents to others in return for revenue and/or access to their patents. Most patent licenses expire concurrently with the expiration of the last patent identified in the license. In 2010, we added 16 new agreements to our portfolio of patent-licensing and sale agreements, and Xerox and its subsidiaries were licensor or seller in 14 of the agreements. We are also a party to a number of cross-licensing agreements with companies that hold substantial patent portfolios, including Canon, Microsoft, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Oce, Sharp, Samsung and Seiko Epson. These agreements vary in subject matter, scope, compensation, significance and time.

In the U.S., we own more than 650 trademarks, either registered or applied for. These trademarks have a perpetual life, subject to renewal every 10 years. We vigorously enforce and protect our trademarks.

Marketing and Distribution

LOGO

We manage our business based on the principal business segments described earlier. We have organized the marketing, selling and distribution of our products and services by geography, channel type and line of business.

We sell our products and services directly to customers through our world-wide sales force and through a network of independent agents, dealers, value-added resellers, systems integrators and the Web.

In large enterprises, we follow a services-led approach that enables us to address two basic challenges facing large enterprise customers:

How to optimize infrastructure to be both cost-effective and globally consistent
How to improve their value proposition and communication with their customers

Our go-to-market approach includes the largest direct sales force in the industry, with customers served by Client Managing Directors, Account General Managers and Sales Representatives.

For small and mid-size business, we continue to expand our distribution partnerships in North America with additional information technology resellers and by enhancing our network of independent agents. In 2010, we acquired two companies to further expand this distribution capacity.

In Europe, Africa, the Middle East and parts of Asia, we distribute our products through Xerox Limited, a company established under the laws of England, and related non-U.S. companies. Xerox Limited enters into distribution agreements with unaffiliated third parties to provide distribution of our products in many of the countries located in these regions, and previously entered into agreements with unaffiliated third parties providing distribution of our products in Iran, Sudan and Syria. Iran, Sudan and Syria, among others, have been designated as state sponsors of terrorism by the U.S. Department of State and are subject to U.S. economic sanctions. We maintain an export and sanctions compliance program and believe that we have been and are in compliance with U.S. laws and government regulations for these countries. We have no assets, liabilities or operations in these countries other than liabilities under the distribution agreements. After observing required prior notice periods, Xerox Limited terminated its distribution agreements with distributors servicing Sudan and Syria in August 2006 and terminated its distribution agreement with the distributor servicing Iran in December 2006. Now, Xerox only has legacy obligations to third parties, such as providing spare parts and supplies to these third parties. In 2010, total Xerox revenues of $21.6 billion included less than $0.2 million attributable to Iran, Sudan and Syria.

Competition

Although we encounter competition in all areas of our business, we are the leader or among the leaders in each of our principal business segments. We compete on the basis of technology, performance, price, quality, reliability, brand, distribution and customer service and support.

Our competitors in the Technology business include Canon, Ricoh, Hewlett-Packard, Kodak, Oce, Konica Minolta and Lexmark. In the Services business, our larger competitors are Hewlett-Packard, Genpact, Teletech, Accenture, Aon Hewitt, Computer Services, IBM and Dell. In addition, in the Services segment, we compete with in-house departments performing the functions that we are seeking to have them outsource to us.

 

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  19


Table of Contents

We believe that our brand recognition, reputation for our business process and document management knowledge and expertise, innovative technology, service, breadth of product offerings, global distribution channels, customer relationships and large customer base are important competitive advantages. We and our competitors continue to develop and market new and innovative products and services at competitive prices and, at any given time, we may set new market standards for quality, speed, function and level of service.

Global Employment

Globally, we have approximately 136,500 direct employees. We have approximately 8,000 sales professionals, approximately 12,000 technical service employees and over 46,000 employees serving our customers through on-site operations or off-site delivery centers.

Customer Financing

We finance a large portion of our direct channel customer purchases of Xerox equipment through bundled lease agreements. We believe that financing facilitates customer acquisition of Xerox technology and enhances our value proposition while providing Xerox an attractive gross margin and a reasonable return on our investment in this business.

Because our lease contracts permit customers to pay for equipment over time rather than at the date of installation, we maintain a certain level of debt to support our investment in these lease contracts. We fund our customer financing activity through a combination of cash generated from operations, cash on hand and proceeds from capital market offerings. At December 31, 2010, we had $6.6 billion of finance receivables and $0.6 billion of equipment on operating leases, or Total Finance assets of $7.2 billion. We maintain an assumed 7:1 leverage ratio of debt to equity as compared to our Finance assets, and therefore, a significant portion of our $8.6 billion of debt is associated with our financing business.

Manufacturing and Supply

Our manufacturing and distribution facilities are located around the world. The company’s largest manufacturing site is in Webster, New York, where we produce fusers, photoreceptors, Xerox iGen and Nuvera systems, components, consumables and other products and we have an EA Toner plant located in Webster. Our other primary manufacturing operations are located in: Dundalk, Ireland, for our high-end production products and consumables; and Wilsonville, Oregon, for solid ink products, consumable supplies and components for our Mid-range and Entry products. We also have a major facility in Venray, Netherlands, which handles supplies manufacturing and supply chain management for the Eastern Hemisphere.

Our master supply agreement with Flextronics, a global electronics manufacturing services company, to outsource portions of manufacturing for our Mid-range and Entry businesses, continues into 2011.

We also acquire products from various third parties in order to increase the breadth of our product portfolio and meet channel requirements. We have arrangements with Fuji Xerox under which we purchase and sell products, some of which are the result of mutual research and development agreements. Refer to Note 7 – Investments in Affiliates, at Equity in the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2010 Annual Report for additional information regarding our relationship with Fuji Xerox.

Services Global Production Model

We believe our global services production model is one of our key competitive advantages. This model encompasses employees in production centers around the world including India, Mexico, the Philippines, Jamaica, Ghana, Brazil, Guatemala, Chile, Argentina, Spain, Poland and Ireland, among others. Our global production model is enabled by the use of proprietary technology, which allows us to securely distribute client transactions within data privacy limits across a global workforce. This global production model allows us to leverage lower-cost production locations, consistent methodology and processes, and time zone advantages.

Fuji Xerox

Fuji Xerox is an unconsolidated entity in which we currently own a 25% interest and FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation (“FujiFilm”) owns 75%. Fuji Xerox develops, manufactures and distributes document processing products in Japan, China, Hong Kong, other areas of the Pacific Rim, Australia and New Zealand. We retain significant rights as a minority shareholder. Our technology licensing agreements with Fuji Xerox ensure that the two companies retain uninterrupted access to each other’s portfolio of patents, technology and products.

International Operations

We are incorporating by reference the financial measures by geographical area for 2010, 2009 and 2008 that are included in Note 2 - Segment Reporting in the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2010 Annual Report. See also the risk factor entitled “Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be negatively impacted by economic conditions abroad, including local economies, political environments, fluctuating foreign currencies and shifting regulatory schemes” in Part I, Item 1A of Form 10-K.

Backlog

We believe that backlog, or the value of unfilled orders, is not a meaningful indicator of future business prospects because of the significant proportion of our revenue that follows contract signing and/or equipment installation, the large volume of products we deliver from shelf inventories, and the shortening of product life cycles.

Seasonality

Our technology revenues are affected by such factors as the introduction of new products, the length of sales cycles and the seasonality of technology purchases. These factors have historically resulted in lower revenue in the first quarter and the third quarter.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be negatively impacted by conditions abroad, including local economics, political environments, fluctuating foreign currencies and shifting regulatory schemes.

A significant portion of our revenues are generated from operations outside the United States. In addition, we manufacture or acquire many of our products and/or their components from, and maintain significant operations, outside the United States. Our future revenues, costs and results of operations could be significantly affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates - particularly the Japanese Yen to U.S. Dollar and Japanese Yen to Euro exchange rates, as well as by a number of other factors, including changes in economic conditions from country to country, changes in a country’s political conditions, trade protection measures, licensing requirements, local tax issues, capitalization and other related legal matters. We generally hedge foreign currency denominated assets, liabilities and anticipated transactions primarily through the use of currency derivative contracts. The use of derivative contracts is intended to mitigate or reduce transactional level volatility in the results of foreign operations, but does not completely eliminate volatility. We do not hedge the translation effect of international revenues and expenses, which are denominated in currencies other than our U.S. parent functional currency, within our consolidated financial statements. If our future revenues, costs and results of operations are significantly affected by economic conditions abroad and we are unable to effectively hedge these risks, they could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We face significant competition and our failure to compete successfully could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We operate in an environment of significant competition, driven by rapid technological advances and the demands of customers to become more efficient. Our competitors range from large international companies to relatively small firms. Some of the large international companies have significant financial resources and compete with us globally to provide document processing products and services and/or business process services in each of the markets we serve. We compete primarily on the basis of technology, performance, price, quality, reliability, brand, distribution and customer service and support. Our success in future performance is largely dependent upon our ability to compete successfully in the markets we currently serve and to expand into additional market segments. To remain competitive, we must develop new products, services and applications; periodically enhance our existing offerings and attract and retain key personnel and management. If we are unable to compete successfully, we could lose market share and important customers to our competitors and that could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our profitability is dependent upon our ability to obtain adequate pricing for our products and services and to improve our cost structure.

Our success depends on our ability to obtain adequate pricing for our products and services which provides a reasonable return to our shareholders. Depending on competitive market factors, future prices we obtain for our products and services may decline from previous levels. In addition, pricing actions to offset the effect of currency devaluations may not prove sufficient to offset further devaluations or may not hold in the face of customer resistance and/or competition. If we are unable to obtain adequate pricing for our products and services, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We continually review our operations with a view towards reducing our cost structure, including but not limited to reducing employee base, exiting certain businesses, improving process and system efficiencies and outsourcing some internal functions. We from time to time engage in restructuring actions to reduce our cost structure. If we are unable to continue to maintain our cost base at or below the current level and maintain process and systems changes resulting from prior restructuring actions, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our ability to sustain and improve profit margins is dependent on a number of factors, including our ability to continue to improve the cost efficiency of our operations through such programs as Lean Six Sigma, the level of pricing pressures on our products and services, the proportion of high-end as opposed to low-end equipment sales, the trend in our post-sale revenue growth and our ability to successfully complete information technology initiatives. If any of these factors adversely materialize or if we are unable to achieve productivity improvements through design efficiency, supplier and manufacturing cost improvements and information technology initiatives, our ability to offset labor cost inflation, potential materials cost increases and competitive price pressures would be impaired, all of which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our operating results may be negatively impacted by lower equipment placements and usage trends.

Our ability to maintain a consistent trend of revenue growth over the intermediate to longer term is largely dependent upon expansion of our worldwide equipment placements, as well as sales of services and supplies occurring after the initial equipment placement (post sale revenue) in the key growth markets of digital printing, color and multifunction systems. We expect that revenue growth can be further enhanced through our document management and consulting services in the areas of personalized and product life cycle communications, enterprise managed print services and document content and imaging. The ability to achieve growth in our equipment placements is subject to the successful implementation of our initiatives to provide advanced systems, industry-oriented global solutions and services for major customers, improve direct and indirect sales productivity and expand our indirect distribution channels in the face of global competition and pricing pressures. Our ability to increase post sale revenue is largely dependent on our ability to increase the volume of pages printed, the mix of color pages, equipment utilization and color adoption, as well as our ability to retain a high level of supplies sales in unbundled contracts. Equipment placements typically occur through leases with original terms of three to five years. There will be a lag between the increase in equipment placement and an increase in post sale revenues. The ability to grow our customers’ usage of our products may continue to be adversely impacted by the movement toward distributed printing and electronic substitutes and the impact of lower equipment placements in prior periods. If we are unable to maintain a consistent trend of revenue growth, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We have outsourced a significant portion of our overall worldwide manufacturing operations and face the risks associated with relying on third-party manufacturers and external suppliers.

We have outsourced a significant portion of our overall worldwide manufacturing operations to third parties and various service providers. To the extent that we rely on third-party manufacturing relationships, we face the risk that those manufacturers may not be able to develop manufacturing methods appropriate for our products, they may not be able to quickly respond to changes in customer demand for our products, they may not be able to obtain supplies and materials necessary for the manufacturing process, they may experience labor shortages and/or disruptions, manufacturing costs could be higher than planned and the reliability of our products could decline. If any of these risks were to be realized, and assuming similar third-party manufacturing relationships could not be established, we could experience interruptions in supply or increases in costs that might result in our being unable to meet customer demand for our products, damage our relationships with our customers and reduce our market share, all of which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

For our services contracts, we rely to a significant extent on third-party providers, such as subcontractors, a relatively small number of primary software vendors, utility providers and network providers; if they cannot deliver or perform as expected or if our relationships with them are terminated or otherwise change, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Our ability to service our customers and clients and deliver and implement solutions depends to a large extent on third-party providers such as subcontractors, a relatively small number of primary software vendors and utility providers and network providers meeting their obligations to us and our expectations in a timely, quality manner. Our business, revenues, profitability and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected and we might incur significant additional liabilities if these third-party providers do not meet these obligations or our expectations or if they terminate or refuse to renew their relationships with us or were to offer their products to us with less advantageous prices and other terms than we previously had. In addition, a number of our facilities are located in jurisdictions outside of the United States where the provision of utility services, including electricity and water, may not be consistently reliable and, while there are backup systems in many of our operating facilities, an extended outage of utility or network services could have a material adverse effect on our operations, revenues, cash flow and profitability.

We need to develop and expand the use of color printing and copying.

Increasing the proportion of pages that are printed in color and transitioning color pages currently produced on offset devices to Xerox technology represent key growth opportunities. A significant part of our strategy and ultimate success in this changing market is our ability to develop and market technology that produces color prints and copies quickly, easily, with high quality and at reduced cost. Our continuing success in this strategy depends on our ability to make the investments and commit the necessary resources in this highly competitive market, as well as the pace of color adoption by our existing and prospective customers. If we are unable to develop and market advanced and competitive color technologies or the pace of color adoption by our existing and prospective customers is less than anticipated, or the price of color pages declines at a greater rate and faster pace than we anticipate, we may be unable to capture these opportunities and it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Table of Contents

Our ability to recover capital investments in connection with our contracts is subject to risk.

In order to attract and retain large outsourcing contracts, we sometimes make significant capital investments to perform our services under the contract, such as purchases of information technology equipment and costs incurred to develop and implement software. The net book value of such assets recorded, including a portion of our intangible assets, could be impaired, and our earnings and cash flow could be materially adversely affected in the event of the early termination of all or a part of such a contract or the reduction in volumes and services thereunder for reasons such as, among other things, a customer’s or client’s merger or acquisition, divestiture of assets or businesses, business failure or deterioration, or a customer’s or client’s exercise of contract termination rights.

If we fail to successfully develop new products and technologies and service offerings and protect our intellectual property rights, we may be unable to retain current customers and gain new customers and our revenues would be reduced.

The process of developing new high technology products and solutions is inherently complex and uncertain. It requires accurate anticipation of customers’ changing needs and emerging technological trends. We must make long-term investments and commit significant resources before knowing whether these investments will eventually result in products that achieve customer acceptance and generate the revenues required to provide desired returns. In developing these new technologies and products, we rely upon patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws in the United States and similar laws in other countries, and agreements with our employees, customers, suppliers and other parties, to establish and maintain our intellectual property rights in technology and products used in our operations. However, the laws of certain countries may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States and we may be unable to protect our proprietary technology adequately against unauthorized third-party copying or use, which could adversely affect our competitive position. In addition, some of our products rely on technologies developed by third parties. We may not be able to obtain or to continue to obtain licenses and technologies from these third parties at all or on reasonable terms, or such third parties may demand cross-licenses to our intellectual property. It is also possible that our intellectual property rights could be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, allowing others to use our intellectual property to our competitive detriment. We also must ensure that all of our products comply with existing and newly enacted applicable regulatory requirements in the countries in which they are sold, particularly European Union environmental directives. If we fail to accurately anticipate and meet our customers’ needs through the development of new products and technologies and service offerings or if we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property rights or if our new products are not widely accepted or if our current or future products fail to meet applicable worldwide regulatory requirements, we could lose market share and customers to our competitors and that could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our ability to fund our customer financing activities at economically competitive levels depends on our ability to borrow and the cost of borrowing in the credit markets.

The long-term viability and profitability of our customer financing activities is dependent, in part, on our ability to borrow and the cost of borrowing in the credit markets. This ability and cost, in turn, is dependent on our credit ratings and is subject to credit market volatility. We are currently funding our customer financing activity through a combination of cash generated from operations, cash on hand, capital market offerings and other borrowings. Our ability to continue to offer customer financing and be successful in the placement of equipment with customers is largely dependent on our ability to obtain funding at a reasonable cost. If we are unable to continue to offer customer financing, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our significant debt could adversely affect our financial health and pose challenges for conducting our business.

We have and will continue to have a significant amount of debt and other obligations, primarily to support our customer financing activities. As of December 31, 2010, we had $8.6 billion of total debt and a $650 million liability to a subsidiary trust issuing preferred securities. The total value of finance assets, shown on the balance sheet as Finance receivables and On-lease equipment, was $7.2 billion at December 31, 2010. The total cash and cash equivalents was $1.2 billion at December 31, 2010. Our substantial debt and other obligations could have important consequences. For example, it could (i) increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; (ii) limit our ability to obtain additional financing for future working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate requirements; (iii) increase our vulnerability to interest rate fluctuations because a portion of our debt has variable interest rates; (iv) require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations to service debt and other obligations thereby reducing the availability of our cash flows from operations for other purposes; (v) limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; (vi) place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; and (vii) become due and payable upon a change in control. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, these related risks could increase.

We need to maintain adequate liquidity in order to have sufficient cash to meet operating cash flow requirements, repay maturing debt and meet other financial obligations, such as payment of dividends to the extent declared by our Board of Directors. If we fail to comply with the covenants contained in our various borrowing agreements, it may adversely affect our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.

Our liquidity is a function of our ability to successfully generate cash flows from a combination of efficient operations and improvement therein, access to capital markets and funding from third parties. As of December 31, 2010, total cash and cash equivalents was $1.2 billion, and our borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility was $2.0 billion, reflecting no outstanding borrowings or letters of credit. We believe our liquidity (including operating and other cash flows that we expect to generate) will be sufficient to meet operating requirements as they occur; however, our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity going forward depends on our ability to generate cash from operations and access to the capital markets and funding from third parties, all of which are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other market factors that are beyond our control.

The Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants including limitations on: (i) liens of Xerox and certain of our subsidiaries securing debt; (ii) certain fundamental changes to corporate structure; (iii) changes in nature of business and (iv) limitations on debt incurred by certain subsidiaries. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants, including maximum leverage (debt for borrowed money divided by consolidated EBITDA, as defined) and a minimum interest coverage ratio (consolidated EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense, as defined). The indentures governing our outstanding senior notes contain affirmative and negative covenants including limitations on: issuance of secured debt and preferred stock; investments and acquisitions; mergers; certain transactions with affiliates; creation of liens; asset transfers; hedging transactions; payment of dividends and certain other payments. They do not, however, contain any financial maintenance covenants, except the fixed charge coverage ratio applicable to certain types of payments. Some of the covenants under our senior notes are suspended while we are rated investment grade.

At December 31, 2010, we were in full compliance with the covenants and other provisions of the Credit Facility and the senior notes. Failure to comply with material provisions of or covenants in the Credit Facility or the senior notes could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.

We need to successfully execute the transition of Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. in order to realize all of the anticipated benefits from the transaction.

Our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (“ACS”) acquisition is subject to certain risks including, but not limited to, the risks that: the future business operations of ACS will not be successful; customer retention, cost synergies and revenue expansion goals for the ACS transaction will not be met; and disruptions from the ACS transaction will harm relationships with customers, employees and suppliers.

Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be negatively impacted by legal and regulatory matters.

We have various contingent liabilities that are not reflected on our balance sheet, including those arising as a result of being involved in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings concerning securities law, intellectual property law, environmental law, employment law and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), as discussed in the “Contingencies” note in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Should developments in any of these matters cause a change in our determination as to an unfavorable outcome and result in the need to recognize a material accrual, or should any of these matters result in a final adverse judgment or be settled for significant amounts, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period or periods in which such change in determination, judgment or settlement occurs.

Table of Contents

Our operations and our products are subject to environmental regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which we conduct our business and sell our products. Some of our manufacturing operations use, and some of our products contain, substances that are regulated in various jurisdictions. For example, various countries and jurisdictions have adopted or are expected to adopt restrictions on the types and amounts of chemicals that may be present in electronic equipment or other items that we use or sell. If we do not comply with applicable rules and regulations in connection with the use of such substances and the sale of products containing such substances, then we could be subject to liability and could be prohibited from selling our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Further, various countries and jurisdictions have adopted or are expected to adopt, programs that make producers of electrical goods, including computers and printers, responsible for certain labeling, collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of these recovered products. If we are unable to collect, recycle, treat and dispose of our products in a cost-effective manner and in accordance with applicable requirements, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Other potentially relevant initiatives throughout the world include proposals for more extensive chemical registration requirements and/or possible bans on the use of certain chemicals, various efforts to limit energy use in products, and other environmentally related programs impacting products and operations, such as those associated with climate change accords, agreements and regulations. For example, the European Union’s Energy-Using Products Directive (“EUP”) is expected to lead to the adoption of “implementing measures” intended to require certain classes of products to achieve certain design and/or performance standards, in connection with energy use and potentially other environmental parameters and impacts. It is possible that some or all of our products may be required to comply with EUP implementing measures. Another example is the European Union “REACH” Regulation (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals), a broad initiative that will require parties throughout the supply chain to register, assess and disclose information regarding many chemicals in their products. Depending on the types, applications, forms and uses of chemical substances in various products, REACH could lead to restrictions and/or bans on certain chemical usage. Xerox continues its efforts toward monitoring and evaluating the applicability of these and numerous other regulatory initiatives in an effort to develop compliance strategies. As these and similar initiatives and programs become regulatory requirements throughout the world and/or are adopted as public or private procurement requirements, we must comply or potentially face market access limitations that could have a material adverse affect on our operations and financial condition.

Our government contracts are subject to termination rights, audits and investigations, which, if exercised, could negatively impact our reputation and reduce our ability to compete for new contracts.

A significant portion of our revenues are derived from contracts with U.S. federal, state and local governments and their agencies, as well as international governments and their agencies. Governments and their agencies may have the right to terminate many of these contracts at any time without cause. These contracts, upon their expiration or termination, are typically subject to a bidding process in which Xerox may not be successful. Also, our contracts with governmental entities are generally subject to the approval of annual appropriations by the United States Congress or other legislative/governing bodies to fund the expenditures of the governmental entities under those contracts. Additionally, government contracts are generally subject to audits and investigations by government agencies. If the government finds that we improperly charged any costs to a contract, the costs are not reimbursable or, if already reimbursed, the cost must be refunded to the government. If the government discovers improper or illegal activities in the course of audits or investigations, we may be subject to various civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, which may include termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspensions or debarment from doing business with the government. Any resulting penalties or sanctions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further, the negative publicity that arises from findings in such audits, investigations or the penalties or sanctions therefore could have an adverse effect on our reputation in the industry and reduce our ability to compete for new contracts and may also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

We are subject to United States and foreign jurisdiction laws relating to individually identifiable information, and failure to comply with those laws, whether or not inadvertent, could subject us to legal actions and negatively impact our operations.

We process, transmit and store information relating to identifiable individuals, both in our role as a service provider and as an employer. As a result, we are subject to numerous United States (both federal and state) and foreign jurisdiction laws and regulations designed to protect individually identifiable information, including social security numbers, financial and health information. For example, in 1996, Congress passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and as required therein, the Department of Health and Human Services established regulations governing, among other things, the privacy, security and electronic transmission of individually identifiable health information. We have taken measures to comply with each of those regulations on or before the required dates. Another example is the European Union Directive on Data Protection, entitled “Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data.” We have also taken steps to address the requirements of that Directive. Other United States (both federal and state) and foreign jurisdiction laws apply to the processing of individually identifiable information as well and additional legislation may be enacted at any time. Failure to comply with these types of laws may subject us to, among other things, liability for monetary damages, fines and/or criminal prosecution, unfavorable publicity, restrictions on our ability to process information and allegations by our customers and clients that we have not performed our contractual obligations, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our profitability and cash flow.

We are subject to breach of our security systems.

We have implemented security systems with the intent of maintaining the physical security of our facilities and protecting our, our customers’ and clients’ and our suppliers’ confidential information and information related to identifiable individuals against unauthorized access through our information systems or by other electronic transmission or through the misdirection, theft or loss of physical media. These include, for example, the appropriate encryption of information. Despite such efforts, we are subject to breach of security systems which may result in unauthorized access to our facilities and/or the information we are trying to protect. If unauthorized parties gain physical access to one of our facilities or electronic access to our information systems or such information is misdirected, lost or stolen during transmission or transport, any theft or misuse of such information could result in, among other things, unfavorable publicity, governmental inquiry and oversight, difficulty in marketing our services, allegations by our customers and clients that we have not performed our contractual obligations, litigation by affected parties and possible financial obligations for damages related to the theft or misuse of such information, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and cash flow.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We own several manufacturing, engineering and research facilities and lease other facilities. Our principal manufacturing and engineering facilities, located in New York, California, Oklahoma, Oregon, Canada, U.K., Ireland and the Netherlands, are used primarily by the Technology Segment. Our principal research facilities are located in California, New York, Canada, France and the U.K. The research activities in our principal research centers benefit all of our operating segments. Our Corporate Headquaters is a leased facility located in Norwalk, Connecticut.

As a result of implementing our restructuring programs, (refer to Note 9 - Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges in the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2010 Annual Report, incorporated by reference), several leased and owned properties became surplus. As of December 31, 2010, the surplus portions of our Dundalk, Ireland facility were sold and the Oklahoma City, OK manufacturing plant was removed from surplus and placed back into operation. A portion of the Oklahoma facility is used as an ACS Call Center and we are developing plans for the balance of the facility. We are obligated to maintain our leased surplus properties through required contractual periods. With respect to United States properties, as of December 31, 2010, we are marketing 12 surplus leased facilities totaling 533,386 square feet. During 2010, the largest surplus leased site in Monrovia, California was subleased.

We also own or lease numerous facilities globally, which house general offices, sales offices, service locations and distributions centers. It is our opinion that our properties have been well maintained, are in sound operating condition and contain all the necessary equipment and facilities to perform their functions. We believe that our current facilities are suitable and adequate for our current businesses.

In February 2010, we acquired Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (“ACS”). As a result of this acquisition and subsequent 2010 business transactions, we added 533 locations comprising 11.3 million square feet of owned and leased property. The owned property consists of 23 locations for 1.2 million square feet in Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio, Mississippi, Mexico and France. The largest owned facility is the ACS headquarters complex located in Dallas, Texas, consisting of approximately 600,000 square feet, which also houses a data center and other operations. The leased property consists of 510 locations for 10.1 million square feet in numerous locations throughout the world. The leases have terms through 2029 and we do not anticipate any significant difficulty in obtaining lease renewals or alternate space. The ACS owned and leased space is used for general office, data centers and call center purposes principally in our Services segment operations. During 2010, we completed 31 Xerox and ACS consolidation projects to optimize our property portfolio.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Responsibility for Financial Statements

Our management is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of all information presented in this annual report. The consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include amounts based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Management believes the consolidated financial statements fairly reflect the form and substance of transactions and that the financial statements fairly represent the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which is composed solely of independent directors, meets regularly with the independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the internal auditors and representatives of management to review accounting, financial reporting, internal control and audit matters, as well as the nature and extent of the audit effort. The Audit Committee is responsible for the engagement of the independent auditors. The independent auditors and internal auditors have access to the Audit Committee.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify the Company’s financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors. Based on their evaluation as of December 31, 2010, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and was accumulated and communicated to the Company’s Management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive, financial and accounting officers, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Based on the above evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in our 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders which is incorporated by reference in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, there was no change identified in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Executive Compensation

On February 22, 2011, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company took the following actions:

2010 and 2011 Annual Performance Incentive Plan (APIP)

The Compensation Committee approved the payments of cash awards under the Xerox 2004 Performance Incentive Plan (“2004 PIP”), as amended, for 2010 APIP. The measures on which awards are based for the 2010 fiscal year are set out on Exhibit 10(e)(14) attached hereto. The Compensation Committee approved the payment of cash awards under the 2004 PIP for fiscal year 2010 to Ursula M. Burns, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company; Lawrence A. Zimmerman, Vice Chairman; and certain other officers, including Lynn Blodgett, Armando Zagalo de Lima and James A. Firestone, our next three most highly compensated executive officers for fiscal year 2010; and Anne M. Mulcahy, former Chairman of the Board (collectively, the “Named Executive Officers”). The Compensation Committee approved a cash award of $1,693,125 to Ms. Burns, $767,550 to Mr. Zimmerman, $1,615,989 to Mr. Blodgett, $704,951 to Mr. Zagalo de Lima, $767,550 to Mr. Firestone and $559,896 to Mrs. Mulcahy.

The Compensation Committee approved the measures for APIP awards for fiscal year 2011, which are set out on Exhibit 10(e)(19) attached hereto.

2008 E-LTIP Awards

The Compensation Committee determined that 60% of the original grant amount awarded under the 2008 Executive Long-Term Incentive Program (“2008 E-LTIP”) was earned based on the Company’s three-year cumulative 2008, 2009 and 2010 performance against the three-year cumulative targets established for Earnings Per Share and Core Cash Flow from Operations. A description of the targets is set out on Exhibit 10(e)(5). The total number of shares earned for the three-year cumulative performance period ended December 31, 2010 that shall vest on July 1, 2011 for each Named Executive Officer is as follows: Ms. Burns, 179,916 shares; Mr. Zimmerman, 64,641 shares; Mr. Zagalo de Lima, 44,982 shares; Mr. Firestone, 89,958 shares; and Mrs. Mulcahy, 231,164 shares. Included in these share amounts are shares that were previously earned for 2009 annual performance, as previously disclosed in our 2009 Form 10-K (except for Mr. Zagalo de Lima who became a Named Executive Officer for 2010). No performance shares were earned for 2008 based on the Company’s 2008 performance against the annual targets.

2009 E-LTIP Awards

In lieu of performance shares, 2009 E-LTIP awards were made in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) with a performance feature based on the price of Xerox common stock over a three-year period. The number of shares of stock that can be earned range between 80% and 120% of the original RSU award, based on the increase or decrease in the price of Xerox common stock over the three-year vesting period. No further action is required by the Compensation Committee.

2010 E-LTIP Awards

The Compensation Committee determined that 33.33% of the performance shares granted under the 2010 Executive Long-Term Incentive Program (“2010 E-LTIP”) were earned based on the Company’s 2010 performance against the annual targets established for Earnings Per Share and Cash Flow from Operations. A description of the targets is set out on Exhibit 10(e)(15). The number of shares earned for 2010 for each Named Executive Officer is as follows: Ms. Burns, 313,676 shares; Mr. Blodgett, 83,650 shares; Mr. Zagalo de Lima, 62,736 shares; and Mr. Firestone, 83,650 shares. Earned shares vest three years from their grant date.

In lieu of a performance share award that vests over a three-year period, the Compensation Committee approved a performance share award for Mr. Zimmerman effective March 1, 2010 that will vest on March 1, 2011. Performance metrics were the same as those developed for the first year of the three-year 2010 E-LTIP performance share award and thus Mr. Zimmerman earned 209,425 shares.

 

Xerox 2010 Form 10-K  31


Table of Contents

ACS Performance Shares

In connection with the acquisition of ACS, Mr. Blodgett received a special one-time grant of performance shares that vest over a three year period contingent upon ACS meeting pre-determined annual targets for Earnings Before Interest and Taxes. The aggregate number of shares that may be delivered based on achievement of the targets was determined on the grant date and ranges in value as follows: 50% of base salary (threshold); 100% of base salary (target); and 200% of base salary plus 50% of the value of previously awarded stock options (maximum). The Compensation Committee determined that the maximum number of shares were earned for 2010 based on ACS’s performance against the 2010 stated target. The number of shares earned for Mr. Blodgett is 171,330 shares, which will vest on February 5, 2013.

2011 E-LTIP Awards

2011 E-LTIP awards made to Named Executive Officers reflect their leadership role in the Company, their historical and future contributions, and competitive award levels. The purpose of the 2011 E-LTIP is to provide the necessary incentives to retain and reward executives for sustained performance improvements over the next three-year period. Awards under the 2011 E-LTIP for Named Executive Officers are comprised entirely of performance shares that may be earned based on achieving performance targets between threshold and maximum as determined by the Compensation Committee. All performance shares that are earned will vest in 2014. Named Executive Officers who retire, are involuntarily terminated (without cause) or voluntarily terminate due to a reduction in force prior to the end of the three-year performance cycle will vest in a portion of the performance shares earned on a pro rata basis.

Performance metrics for the 2011 E-LTIP are Revenue Growth (at constant currency) (weighted 10%), Adjusted Earnings Per Share (weighted 55%) and Core Cash Flow from Operations (weighted 35%). Revenue Growth, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Core Cash Flow from Operations are defined in Exhibit 10(e)(20) attached hereto. The Compensation Committee has established annual targets for Revenue Growth and annual and cumulative targets for Adjusted EPS and Core Cash Flow from Operations. Based on actual performance versus targets, the number of performance shares earned by Named Executive Officers under the 2011 E-LTIP will range from 0% to 150% of the initial number of shares subject to the grant. The form of award agreement pursuant to which such grants were made is attached hereto as Exhibit 10(e)(21).

Participants in the 2011 E-LTIP are subject to meaningful ownership requirements and mandatory share holding requirements of 50% of the net vested shares until their ownership requirements have been met.
