The Reporting Persons have agreed to act in concert with Mr. Deason and his affiliates with respect to the matters described in the Joint Statement and their contemplated joint solicitation of proxies for the Issuer's 2018 annual meeting. Based on the foregoing, the Reporting Persons and Mr. Deason and his affiliates have formed a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"). The group may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act) all of the Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons and all of the Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Deason and his affiliates. Such group may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), in the aggregate, 40,079,843 Shares (including 6,741,572 Shares issuable upon the conversion of 180,000 Xerox Series B Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, owned by Mr. Deason and his affiliates), constituting approximately 15.74% of the 254,586,109 Shares outstanding (based upon the 254,586,109 Shares stated to be outstanding as of September 30, 2017 by the Issuer in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 30, 2017).

The Reporting Persons expressly retain the sole voting and investment power of the Shares that the Reporting Persons beneficially own.

CARL ICAHN AND DARWIN DEASON RELEASE JOINT STATEMENT REGARDING XEROX CORPORATION


New York, New York, January 22, 2018 – Today Carl Icahn and Darwin Deason released the following joint statement regarding Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX):


We are the first and third largest shareholders of Xerox, beneficially owning collectively over 40 million shares of the company's common stock, constituting over 15% of the outstanding shares. Because we are completely aligned regarding our views on the following subjects, we have agreed to act in concert and have formed a "group" with respect to the contemplated solicitation of proxies to elect 4 new individuals to the board of directors at the 2018 annual meeting of Xerox's shareholders

·
In light of the recent accounting scandal at Fuji Xerox, the joint venture should be terminated or renegotiated to make it more favorable to Xerox;

·
Xerox should immediately commence a process with new independent advisors to explore strategic alternatives;

·
Xerox should immediately disclose the agreements governing the Fuji Xerox joint venture;

·
CEO Jeff Jacobson, a member of the Xerox "old guard," is incapable of creating long-term value for Xerox shareholders and should be replaced immediately; and

·
If the "old guard" directors are unwilling to make the tough decisions necessary to prevent the Xerox ship from sinking, then they must be replaced as well.

The Wall Street Journal recently reported that Xerox is in talks with Fujifilm regarding an array of potential transactions that may or may not include a change of control of Xerox. We are not predisposed to approve or disapprove of any such transaction, whether with Fuji or any other party. But if Xerox is indeed exploring a transaction with Fuji that may result in a change of control (which to our view would make sense since we, like many others, believe consolidation in this industry is inevitable), then we implore the "old guard" directors – who have historically lacked the intestinal fortitude to challenge and demand accountability from Xerox management – to not do us all the tremendous disservice of allowing Jeff Jacobson to lead the negotiations. He is neither qualified nor capable of successfully running this company, let alone negotiating a major strategic transaction that will do more than save his own job.

Unfortunately, we have little faith that Xerox's "old guard" directors will listen to us, which is why real change is needed now more than ever. Every day that the "old guard" remains in power – feebly overseeing the company's steady decline – is a waste of time that could inevitably erode the value of our investment down to nothing. We simply cannot wait any longer for things to change. We must act before it is too late.

Stay tuned, fellow shareholders. This is just the beginning.

CARL C. ICAHN DARWIN DEASON
