DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

On May 20, 2004, the shareholders of Xerox Corporation (the “Registrant”) voted to approve for adoption the Xerox Corporation 2004 Performance Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) to replace, among other plans, the Xerox Canada Inc. Executive Rights Plan (the “Predecessor Plan”). This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registrant’s Registration Statement No. 33-65269 on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 22, 1995 (the “Registration Statement”) is filed to deregister an aggregate of 212,684 shares previously registered that remained available for issuance under the Predecessor Plan prior to the approval of the 2004 Plan. The 212,684 shares deregistered by this Post-Effective Amendment will be registered on a contemporaneously filed registration statement on Form S-8 for the 2004 Plan. The Registration Statement will remain in effect to cover the potential exercise of any outstanding options or awards previously granted under the Predecessor Plan.
