1. | Description of the Plan | |
The following description of The Savings Plan of Xerox Corporation and the Xerographic Division, UNITE HERE (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the summary plan description and the plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions. | ||
General | ||
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all domestic full and part-time UNITE HERE employees of Xerox Corporation (the Company). Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan immediately upon date of hire. | ||
Contributions | ||
Subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), eligible employees may contribute to the Plan up to 80% of pay (as defined in the Plan) through a combination of before-tax and after-tax payroll deductions. Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. | ||
As it relates to employees hired prior to January 1, 2006, for the plan years 2005 and 2006, eligible employees received a company match of 50 cents on the dollar up to 6% of pay saved on a before-tax basis, which equals a maximum match of 3% of annual pay up to the IRS 401(k) elective deferral limit. To be eligible to receive the matching Company contribution, the employee had to be actively employed on the last business day of the calendar quarter for which the allocation occurs or have retired, died, began an approved leave, became disabled, or was laid off during the calendar year. In addition, to be eligible to receive the matching Company contribution in 2005, the employee had to complete six months of service. Effective January 1, 2006, all employees who would be eligible, but had not yet satisfied the six months service requirement, became eligible. | ||
For employees hired on or after January 1, 2006, eligible employees received a Company match of 50 cents on the dollar up to 2% of pay saved on a before-tax basis, which equals a maximum match of 1% of annual pay up to the IRS 401(k) elective deferral limit. That will increase to 50 cents on the dollar up to 4% of pay saved on a before-tax basis (2% of annual pay) in 2007 and beyond. To be eligible to receive the matching Company contribution, the employee had to be actively employed on the last business day of the calendar quarter for which the allocation occurs or have retired, died, began an approved leave, became disabled, or was laid off during the calendar year. Eligible employees hired on or after January 1, 2006 will also automatically receive a 4% of pay contribution to the Plan. | ||
Vesting of Benefits | ||
Participants are vested immediately in employee and employer contributions and actual earnings thereon. | ||
Payment of Benefits | ||
Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to defer receipt of benefits or receive a lump-sum amount equal to the value of his or her account. |

The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. | ||
Benefit Payments | ||
Benefit payments are recorded when paid. | ||
Contributions | ||
Contributions are recorded when withheld from participants pay. Employer contributions are recorded on a quarterly basis. | ||
Use of Estimates | ||

3. | Federal Income Tax Status | |
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated August 28, 2002, covering plan amendments through October 30, 2001, that the Plan and related Master Trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plans financial statements. | ||
4. | Master Trust | |
As discussed in Note 2, the Plan participates in the Master Trust. The Trustee holds the Master Trusts investment assets, provides administrative functions for each of the plans participating in the Master Trust, and executes investment transactions as directed by participants. | ||

5. | Derivative Policy | |
The Master Trust may enter into contractual arrangements (derivatives) in carrying out its investment strategy, principally to: (1) hedge a portion of the Master Trusts portfolio to limit or minimize exposure to certain risks, (2) gain an exposure to a market more rapidly or less expensively than could be accomplished through the use of the cash markets, and (3) reduce the cost of structuring the portfolio or capture value disparities between financial instruments. The Master Trust may utilize both exchange traded investment instruments such as equity and fixed income futures and options on fixed income futures and forward currency contracts. When engaging in forward currency contracts, there is exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to these transactions. The Master Trust manages this exposure through credit approvals and limited monitoring procedures. Procedures are in place to regularly monitor and report market and counterparty credit risks associated with these instruments. | ||
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies associated with the Master Trusts use of derivatives: | ||
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts | ||
Forward currency contracts are generally utilized to hedge a portion of the currency exposure that results from the Master Trusts holdings of equity and fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies. | ||
Forward currency contracts are generally marked-to-market at the prevailing forward exchange rate of the underlying currencies and the difference between contract value and market value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Master Trust net assets. When the forward currency contract is closed, the Master Trust transfers the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) to a realized gain (loss) equal to the change in the value of the forward exchange |

Securities Lending | ||
The Master Trust is not restricted from lending securities to other qualified financial institutions, provided such loans are callable at any time and are at all times fully collateralized by cash (including both U.S. and foreign currency), cash equivalents or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and the sovereign debt of foreign countries. The portfolios may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Consequently, loans of portfolio securities will only be made to firms deemed by the subadvisors to be creditworthy. The portfolios receive compensation for lending their securities either in the form of fees or by retaining a portion of interest on the investment of any cash received as collateral. Cash collateral is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio. | ||
All collateral received will be in an amount equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities and is intended to be maintained at that level during the period of the loan. The value of the collateral on-hand at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $617,253 and $33,002,000, respectively. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Portfolio and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Portfolio the next business day. The market value of the loaned securities at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $603,596 and $32,124,000, respectively. During the loan period, the portfolio continues to retain rights of ownership, including dividends and interest of the loaned securities. Loan income generated from securities lending arrangements was $118,209 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The income from securities lending is included in the Other Income line item on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. | ||
6. | Related Party Transactions | |
The Plan, along with Xerox Corporation Savings Plan (the Plans), invests in a unitized stock fund, The Xerox Stock Fund (the Fund), which is primarily comprised of Xerox Corporation common shares. The unit values of the Fund are recorded and maintained by the Trustee. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Plan purchased common shares in the Fund in the approximate amount of $105,629,000, sold common shares in the Fund in the approximate amount of $178,259,000, and had net appreciation in the Fund of approximately $35,609,000. The total value of the Plans investment in the Fund was approximately $254,541,000 and $290,329,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. These transactions, as well as participant loans, qualify as party-in-interest transactions. In addition, certain funds are managed by an affiliate of the trustee and therefore, qualify as party-in-interest transactions. The Plan also accepts rollovers from an affiliated plan, the Retirement Income Guarantee Plan of Xerox Corporation and The Xerographic Division, UNITE HERE, and these transactions qualify as party-in-interest. | ||
7. | Contingencies | |
In the normal course of business, the Plan enters into agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Plans maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Plan that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Plan expects the risk of loss to be remote. |

8. | Litigation | |
Patti v. Xerox Corporation et al | ||
A class was certified in an action originally filed in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut on July 1, 2002 against Xerox Corporation alleging violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Four additional class actions were subsequently filed and the five actions were later consolidated as In Re Xerox Corporation ERISA Litigation and a consolidated amended complaint was filed. The purported class includes all persons who invested or maintained investments in the Xerox Stock Fund in the Xerox 401(k) Plans during the proposed class period which begins on May 12, 1997 and allegedly exceeds 50,000 persons. The defendants include Xerox Corporation and the following individuals or groups of individuals: the plan administrator, the Board of Directors, the Fiduciary Investment Review Committee, the Joint Administrative Board, the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors, and the Treasurer. The complaint claims that all the foregoing defendants were fiduciaries of the Plans under ERISA and, as such, were obligated to protect the Plans assets and act in the best interest of plan participants. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants failed to do so and thereby breached their fiduciary duties. It does not specify the amount of damages sought. However, it asks that the losses to the Plan be restored. The actions also seek other legal and equitable relief, as well as interest, costs and attorneys fees. The defendants deny any wrongdoing and have filed a motion to dismiss the action. On April 17, 2007, the Court ruled on the motion to dismiss, granting it in part and denying it in part, and giving the plaintiffs an opportunity to file an amended complaint within 30 days. On May 17, 2007, plaintiffs filed their second consolidated amended complaint. | ||
